All Warriors Are My Disciples

50. Do you believe now?

The place Gerard led was the military barracks.

The holy war, as befits its title, he was a disciple who lived a slightly different life from other warriors.

What should I say? A knight and a soldier, should I say somewhere in between?

They just chose a master and didn’t give their allegiance, but their lifestyle was the same.

From moving and behaving like a military to honoring honor like a knight.

But a military barracks? After all, it’s for military use.

Isn’t this bastard crossing the line a little too hard?

It was fortunate that it was only for the commander because it was Gerard’s own barracks.

Are you called to the private barracks for the first time? That’s what I’m telling Garam and Xenia.

“You can sit here.”

Gerard offered him a seat, so he put his ass on.

Fortunately, even the chair was not a simple chair used in the military.

A seat with a cushion attached so that you can sit comfortably.

After me, Master and Iris also took their seats.

“Looks like this kid has become the youngest.”

“Yes. But did Iris see you too, Gerard? When you’re under me, she’s the time when Iris would have already taken over, even though Iris didn’t become an official disciple.”

“At that time, I thought Master would only use it as an attendant.”

As he said that, Gerard tapped Iris on the head.

A knight with a strong physique and wrapped in armor without any gaps.

I think he is the one who best fits the term ‘warrior of protection’.

Originally, this guy should have been a woman too.

Even if she just looked at me, she would have worn a little less armor, which would make her feel frustrated.

Anyway, this country is a problem because it is crying out for human rights in a strange place instead of real human rights.

“Nice to meet you again, Iris. I don’t know if you’ll remember me.”

“Of course. Guardian Warrior. I don’t know how the temple-nim said he stopped the hordes of monsters alone.”

“It’s embarrassing to remind you so much.”

Gerard, who was scratching the back of his head with his hand, let out a sigh.

Then she lowers her hand from Iris’s head and shakes her hand.

“She formally became Master’s disciple Ji. Welcome to her alumni, youngest.”

“Ah… Thank you, senior.”

After such a casual greeting with Iris.

Gerard walked over to Master, who was sitting behind him and fanning his hand.

“Master Tae. I never thought you would leave the place.”

“… Is that so?”

“I hope you had a comfortable trip.”

“It was good. So far, it’s been good, but from now on, it seems like it’s not going to be very good.”

Master expresses the meaning of hotness with his whole body while fluttering his clothes.

As soon as I entered the barracks, of course, I took off my outerwear.

He had taken off his shoes and even his socks, exposing his bare legs.

Seeing that he was panting even after that, the heat was definitely his weakness.

“Say hello here, Gerard. When did you arrive?”

“We arrived three days ago. I’ve been looking around ever since.”

“So how was it? Did you have any harvest?”

At my question, Gerard bit his lip and shook his head slowly.

He is not a disciple skilled in detection like his seventh disciple, Esther.

Still, it’s true that he was expecting a certain amount because he was Gerard who received similar teachings.

However, looking at the responses, it seemed that I couldn’t find anything meaningful.

I was hoping for some progress if we came this way.

Gerard replied that there was nothing for three days.

It is normal to be worried.

But now I didn’t have to.

“I’m sorry I was talking.”

It was natural for Iris to creep in next to me.

If you are a regressor, you must know a way out of this situation.

So I calmly watched as Iris continued her words.

“Gerard. You said this area was forbidden.”

“Yes. So it was very difficult to seek cooperation from the locals.”

“I heard about the ban. That’s why I thought about it, but I wonder if there’s a possibility that the people here didn’t give proper guidance.”

“What do you mean, the youngest?”

“No one is allowed here. Then everyone gets cursed. Couldn’t there be something like this, so I skipped some guides?”

That was definitely a possibility.

It’s like that nobleman’s words, and Gerard’s words too.

Western people were extremely repulsive about a place called Prohibition.

No matter how much the hero came, even if the hero asked for help.

It is not easy to break a taboo that has lasted for at least several decades.

Especially if everyone is equally cursed if they break that taboo.

It seems that Gerard had the same thoughts as me.

As if he hadn’t thought of that part, he touched his chin.

Of course, I thought that the local people would come out very cooperatively.

The guy who had even drool started to nod his head.

“Maknae, I think there is some truth in what you say. Certainly considering that this place is off limits to Westerners, it would be strange to cooperate so readily.”

“From now on, I think it would be better to expand the scope of the investigation a little more broadly.”

“Yes. However, if that happens, you will have to give up not only the guidance of the locals, but also their cooperation.”

If you say locals, you might think that ordinary people are everything at best.

However, that very ordinary person sometimes becomes a thousand and one thousand horses.

On the contrary, there are times when you become more terrifying than your worst enemy.

Especially in a place like this where conditions are so bad that there is a desert right in front of you.

In an environment where the moment you lose your direction, it can be really serious.

It would be quite tiring without the cooperation and assistance of the locals.

“Master.”

Gerard looks at me with his sneaky look.

“What is your opinion, Master?”

“… First of all, cooperation with local people should be seen as a necessity, not an option. Without them, it would be difficult for those who do not know the geography of this place to even find Suwon.”

“That’s right. Even now, without drinking water, it is at the level of a big day. If not, Master….”

“In other words, as long as there are locals who are firm in cooperation, there is no problem.”

As I said that, I pointed at a nobleman who had accidentally entered the barracks with me.

“… Eh, eh?”

Thanks to that, the aristocrat was stunned and thought, what the hell is this situation?

He was frozen in the snow pouring down on him and was whimpering.

“They say you are a noble from this area. It’s all about staying on the baronial level, but he’s still a part of this area, and he should know all the basics. As a bonus, he promised me solid cooperation.”

“Then I’m glad. If only I could defeat the resistance of the locals with my name, and the other parts could be helped by that nobleman. Could it be that you looked ahead to that part?”

Looking ahead is an asshole.

Your father-in-law suddenly slaps you two on the cheek and brings you almost as if you kidnapped him.

Somehow, he’s quite usable, so I’m taking him with me.

Gerard, who had no way of knowing that, approached the nobleman with a smile on his face.

“Thank you very much for your cooperation. They also provided Master with a carriage.”

“Eh, eh? Offer? Me?”

“Yes. Isn’t there something identical to your crest on that carriage?”

“That….”

“As Master’s disciple, I would like to express my gratitude. I wish you well in the future.”

“No, no, no…” .”

Thanks to that, the aristocrat was even more stunned.

When I said that I was acquainted with the divine hero, Saint Lily Hyacinth, they didn’t even listen.

It was only then that the hero came and said, ‘That is my teacher.’

What kind of existence and what kind of journey you have taken so far.

“If not, Master. You’re waiting here for a while. I and the knights under my command will look around the area once more and come back.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to find it together? They said it’s been two months since Iris disappeared.”

“Yes, but… Still, I want you to give me one more chance. If I think that Master is suffering under the scorching sun because of my negligence… I feel very sorry for myself.”

“Even if it’s okay. And I can’t even call this level of scorching sun.”

Even though he said that, Gerard kept begging for one more chance.

The moment when you wonder why he is like this when he is not a character like this.

I was able to nod my head right away at the next word.

“The sisters will not let me go.”

“The disciples?”

“If you hear the story that you suffered under the scorching sun without being able to do anything… Especially if the Grand Master and the second sister hear it, I bet you, I’ll be really boneless.”

“… Ah.”

If it’s Garam and Xenia, they’re definitely guys who will remain like that.

The other disciples may not have a very pleasant reaction, but they will try to understand.

But no matter what, the two of them would say, ‘We’ll have to go through our 4th education again,’ and it was certain that they would lash out at Gerard to the level of viciousness.

“… Okay. If not, it is only until today. If I don’t find something within today, tomorrow I’ll go too.”

“Thank you. I think I can catch my breath thanks to Master.”

To be honest, today is already late afternoon.

Even if we set out from now on, it would be less than half a day.

Even so, Gerard said he was grateful for that.

Gerard jumps up from his seat.

Then she goes over to Iris and pats her on the shoulder.

“You seem to have worked hard under Master, the youngest. I couldn’t even look out there.”

“Yes? Ah… yes. I was really excited. You don’t know how much I suffered.”

“Good posture. That’s a really good attitude. Do your best in the future.”

I am always doing my best.

It’s just a problem that the result doesn’t follow as much as we did our best.

Gerard, who couldn’t have known that, said ‘I hope you rest in peace’ and stepped out of the barracks.

Then, after a while, ‘Gathering! Gathering!!’ Came a loud voice.

As a bonus, I could even feel the energy gathering in an orderly manner at the sound.

“… I was curious, Master. Was it like that when you were teaching Gerard sunbaenim?”

I shook my head at Iris’s question.

Could I have taught you that I was crazy?

Rather, Gerard should be seen as having such characteristics captured by the developer.

Is it because the female character was changed to a male character in a hurry?

Starting from the part where I can’t even tell if it’s a knight or a soldier.

He was a guy with a lot of hints who filled up the settings in a hurry here and there.

“So how about it, Iris. Will you be able to work in the scorching sun tomorrow?”

Is Gerard finding something or not?

I ask the question about that part in a slightly different way.

Then Iris smiled slightly.

“I have to. I’m looking for Iris-senpai, not anyone else.”

In the end, Iris herself has no choice but to step in.

It seemed like there was something I couldn’t find in the usual way.

“What the hell is this….”

Maybe I still haven’t figured out the situation.

I saw a nobleman muttering to himself.

I stepped in front of him and patted the nobleman on the shoulder.

“I told you. The divine warrior gave it a blessing. Why? Because he is my disciple.”

“Uh, uh uh….”

“The warrior of Suho gave me the barracks and did all the work for me. Why? After all, he is my disciple.”

You will have no choice but to believe.

The warrior of guardianship is doing master, master in front of you.

They are treating them with respect and hospitality, but it’s even more strange to not believe them here.

“Do you believe me now?”

“Gee, really… was it? Divine warrior. Seriously, the saintess gave her blessing….”

“Yes. So, it’s a ban and a curse. Don’t be afraid and cooperate.”

The noble nodded with unprecedented enthusiasm.

It wasn’t like that when I was distracted by being beaten by the teacher.

It was definitely a big deal to mention the warriors.
