Pick Me Up!

Chapter 91: Niflheimr (3) (2)

Next.

The next in line was me.

Eldarkin examined me.

.

He moved his lips but stopped.

Eldarkins short eyebrows furrowed.

After a while.

Excellent.

A gruff voice came out.

The hand of the young man holding the pen stopped.

Whats going on?

You need to look at it too.

Sure, lets have a look. Level 20 and

The young mans eyes widened.

This is!

Eldarkin said.

Whats your name?

Han Israt.

Affiliation?

Isnt it written in the ledger?

My apologies. Give me the ledger.

Eldarkin received the ledger from the subordinate and scanned its contents.

Birth grade is 1 Star. Affiliation is Townia. Are you sure?

I nodded.

The deputys complexion turned pale.

A monster like this 1 Star at birth.

Monster, he said.

Do you say that when you see a person?

I clicked my tongue.

You stay here. Step aside.

Aaron was looking at me.

Eldarkin returned the ledger to the deputy and said.

I have something to tell the recruits separately. Sorry, but stay here.

Alright.

I moved aside.

There happened to be a metal chair there, so I sat down.

Since I was near the end of the line, the examination ended quickly.

The warrior aspirants followed the guidance of the deputy and exited the back door of the auditorium.

Except for me.

Eldarkin and I were the only ones left in the auditorium.

Eldarkin looked at me in the chair and chuckled.

You seem comfortable already.

Why did you leave me behind?

I reported your information to the higher-ups. The commander-in-chief is coming soon.

I wasnt particularly surprised.

Niflheimr has communication capabilities. It should be possible to see from a distance. Eldarkin, who was looking at me from a floating posture, said.

Han Israt, from Townia. Is that correct?

Already confirmed information.

There was no need to answer.

The commander-in-chief will be here within a minute. Ill take my leave.

Eldarkin quickly left the auditorium.

I was left alone.

What an odd feeling.

Facilities and heroes that I had touched and managed, actually exist and are alive.

I remember. That Eldarkin Brach was a 1 Star hero who panicked and did nothing in his first battle. The video from that time is also saved. It would be quite funny if I played it back. That man, who was in charge of so many instructors, was trembling at first.

.

I put my hand on my sword hilt.

Theyre coming in openly.

I felt a strong presence at the entrance of the auditorium.

Finally, a woman in a uniform appeared at the entrance. She crossed dozens of meters in a single step and approached me. It was Training Camp Commander Eclet.

Ive received the report. Are you Han Israt?

Eclet scanned me from top to bottom with her blue eyes.

A hint of suspicion crossed her eyes.

Quite remarkable.

Any particular reason for you to come to see me?

I spoke.

You didnt come to see me for a recruitment proposal, thats for sure.

I said, placing my hand on the hilt of my sword.

Eclets lips curled.

Thats right. I didnt come here to recruit you.

To interrogate me, I assume.

When I revealed my affiliation, Eldarkins lips twitched strangely.

Next, Eldarkin summoned the commander. No matter how promising I might be, they wouldnt bring out top-tier individuals just to recruit one recruit.

You know it well.

In an instant, Eclets hand disappeared.

I instinctively drew my sword, but the blade came flying faster than that.

A trickle of blood flowed from my throat.

As expected, not good enough.

I sheathed my sword.

The difference in specs is too severe.

Youre excellent, but you still need time. You cant beat me.

I get it.

Lets get to the point.

While Eclets blade was at my throat, she spoke.

Speak willingly. Where did you hear that information?

What information?

Are you asking because you dont know?

Life sparkled in Eclets eyes.

How did you know that Lord Loki disappeared?

More precisely, your master knows. Anyway, tell me the source of the information and everything else you know if you want to go back alive.

Is this how it is?

What I told Anytng, the information that needs to be included in the recruitment comments, is that Loki is not in Niflheimr. Anytng, who doesnt know the details, may not understand the meaning, but the situation is different for the affiliated heroes.

Even if the lower-ranking heroes dont know, the high-ranking officers should be aware of my disappearance.

It was surprising that the training camp commander knew the content of the recruitment comments.

I raised my head.

The obstructed ceiling. But that guys eyes are everywhere in Niflheimr.

I lowered my gaze. Eclet was staring at me.

Whats your identity?

The blade dug in slightly.

I was about to speak, but I sighed instead.

Boring.

Offering excuses.

Deceiving others with nonsense different from the truth.

Im tired of the mundane play.

Do you want to know who I am?

You

Come out, Yurnet.

Fog swirled from one side of the auditorium, and a white shadow walked out.

The fog gathered into the shape of a person.

Eclets eyes widened.

?!

A plain white robe with no adornments. Wavy white hair reached down to the waist.

Second in command of Niflheimr.

Yurne Seed knelt on one knee before me.

I greet the Master.

You knew but came out late.

Please forgive me. I was preparing to receive you.

I pushed the blade against my throat with my fingertip.

Then I said.

I am Loki.
