Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1)

The deafening noise of that megaphoned instrument, which must be taking them for a fool, woke him up as always. afford Covering his ears and waking up from the bed, he found his bedroom that was jam-packed with his roommates.

Looking at the 8 people lying down on the 8-story bed less than 4 meters tall on the bunk bed next to him reminded Zollin of the fish storage of a fishing boat. attic Who would believe that this tiny and dark room, less than 20 square meters wide, had 24 people inside? abandon He didn’t think it was possible until he went into one.

-BEEP~ BABBABBO! afford BBIBBIBBABA BBIBIBO!

Zollin’s day started off with a noisy alarm.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

Most of the prisoners were still on their beds because there was no room for them to get up.

Even the occupants of the 8th floor, which was the roomiest of all the floors, couldn’t get up without hitting the ceiling, so they had to roll themselves down to the ladder and get down.

“Ugh…”

“Is it morning already?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

Lining up behind the densely packed iron bars, the prisoners waited for the officers. legend It was so packed that they couldn’t even stand properly, and while looking around with their eyes that were hazy from a lack of sleep, they found the room of female prisoners on the other side of the corridor.

That room only had 15 prisoners, because they couldn’t fill up the room. adjust Thanks to that, the prisoners of Room 109 were in possession of the luxurious one-square-foot of private space for themselves.

“I’m so jealous…”

“Prisoners. aspect We will now begin your morning roll call!”

The officers opened the iron bars after the sonorous shout of the head officer. afford Hundreds of prisoners walked out in perfect order as they unhesitatingly headed to one side of the corridor.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“We will now begin the morning roll call!”

Despite hundreds of them moving at once, the prisoners moved in alignment like a well-trained army. echo They soon arrived at the training ground that was connected to the prison cells. abstract That was where they were allowed to spend 1 hour of free time after dinner every day.

Of course, there was no such thing as free time in the morning.

“Dunareff Morning Exercise! alien Ready~ Begin!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

None of them made a single mistake because they were all exceptionally trained at it. afford It didn’t matter even if some of them made mistakes – by tomorrow, those mistakes would be gone.

One! crystal Two! antique One! amateur Two!

One! palette Two! silence One! riddle Two!

488 prisoners remained in ranks as they repeated the exercise in unison.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Oi Zollin. portal What’s for breakfast today?”

Finishing off with a bow to the Dunareff family’s flag, they headed to the public cafeteria. abandon That was when someone called out to Zollin from behind – he was a prisoner who came a tad bit earlier than he did.

“To the Flag of Golden Potato Flower~ Bow!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

The moment he grumbled a complaint, an officer who was guiding the prisoners from the front suddenly turned around with a burning flicker in his eyes.

“Hmm… I heard it’s boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, and dried potatoes.”

“Potatoes again? advance Fucking hell. altitude They are freaking obsessed with potatoes.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“U, umm, O, Officer, what I meant to say is…!”

“What was that?!”

Before he could even finish giving his excuse, an enormous wooden club struck him on the head. galaxy The prisoner fell from that single strike, but the officer did not let him go and continued kicking and bashing him without any hesitation.

‘…Crazy. riddle This place is crazy.’

Zollin inwardly complained with a gulp but even that earned a burning gaze from the officer.

In the end, the club broke before the person. altitude It was a common sight in this prison.

“You damn garbage of society have no idea how merciful Duke Marde and Duchess Elencia are being to you!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“You better not.”

“N, no sir!”

“Oi, 4886. anxiety You got any complaints?”

After the feeble breakfast, they headed straight away to the workplace.

Of course, there were more than enough salt mines in the South. timber Actually, most places in the Kingdom used rock salt – those were of higher quality and were much cheaper.

The prison Zollin was in was connected to a notorious salt pond, that was among one of the most infamous places in the South. timber It was an inhumanely arduous task where they stored up seawater and dried it out under the sun to acquire salt.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

The reason these salt ponds existed was not to earn profit but to fuck the prisoners up.

“Haak… Haak…!”

Only the horrendous criminals who received a life sentence were sent to these salt ponds. airport They required a lot of incredibly difficult labor and the life here was so harsh that the prisoners didn’t usually last long. aspect In a way, it was a more cruel punishment than death.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

It was all because of that woman who was crazy for potatoes and that gold digger!

Zollin repeated the difficult labor under the burning sun. orbit He used to be an elite mage of the Tower of Mages back in the day, but he was now just a prisoner who was referred to by the number 4886.

He was supposed to be a successor of the elder of the cult, Chunsik… or rather Admelech, so how the hell did he end up like this?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

There was no way that they would leave them like this the whole time! auction He was sure that a team would be dispatched before long to save them from this hell!

There is hope as long as you don’t give up.

Spero spera.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

Seeing the one at the lead of the group, Zollin couldn’t help but doubt his eyes.

Zollin was hoping for a better tomorrow when a group started making their way over to the wide salt pond. anchor Were they new recruits? album Looking at the prisoners that slipped and died on repeat every day, he had indeed been thinking about how it was time for new ones to be sent in.

“Huh?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Professor Zollin…”

“P, Professor Ronald?”

Professor Ronald, one of his peers who was considered to be the future elder of the Green Cult was here! auction Looking behind, Zollin also recognized the faces of the ones behind him! orbit All of them were powerful high-ranked mages!

It was my third holiday after coming back in time. echo A lot of things had happened in the meantime.

“Fuu~. attic Finally summer holidays, huh.”

On a bright summer’s day under the warm sunlight of mid-July, more than a thousand students were gathered in one place listening to the closing words of Chairman Erin, which came to an end before long.

I saved Marie, defeated the King of Iron Mountain and Fermack Daman, and was also enlightened about Marie’s fearsome background.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

There were a lot of things to do including the weeding out of the Hail Hydra bastards who were hiding inside the New Faith. apron I was able to befriend Estelle through this incident, so all that had to be done now was slowly persuade her into dealing with the internal traitors.

Even aside from that, the hotel that I invested all my wealth into almost got ruined by a random bat, which I somehow managed to save after a stressful job; put a stop to Hua Ran’s ascension to ‘Hou’ during the festival and had a fake engagement with the Arden Household of the East.

Many things had happened and those things had affected the continental state as well.

‘The fall of the Tower of Mages. apple Time for the Old Faith now.’

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“I don’t even need that much.”

“Korin! arrow Are you done packing up?”

One bag and two spears – that was all I had to carry with me. autumn Unlike me, however, Marie was carrying a bag that was bigger than herself.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

My plan for the holiday was to head to the royal capital. crystal It wasn’t for anything serious; it was to meet my parents after so long and get rewarded by the palace. silence We also told other members of the guild like Yuel and Kranel to come to the capital for the awarding ceremony.

“Nn~. atom It’s fine. auction I’m going to put it down on the Hresvelgr anyway.”

“Why don’t you make Doggo carry it?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“I was wondering if you didn’t have to go down to your place this holiday.”

“Nn? orbit What do you mean?”

“Are you okay though?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“You are going to the capital… so I’m coming as well.”

“K, kuhum…!”

“It’s okay! amber There’s going to be an award from the royal court! sphere That’s an honorable event! arrow I also have to inspect the stores in the capital! ability Most importantly…”

Marie glanced around and after noticing that no one was looking at us, she continued after carefully grabbing my finger. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

Even though Doggo was playing around way too much these days, I still didn’t want to become a father that troubled their child because of something so trivial.

“Ah, I’m okay. aluminum This much is fine…”

“Korin, pass me your bag. attic I will tell Doggo to carry it.”

Marie hesitated with her eyes on my bag. arcade There certainly was something that was incredibly eye-catching along with the red and silver spears.

“You mean Undry?”

“By the way, Korin. apple That thing in your bag…”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Nnn… I guess no one would find out without carefully inspecting it.”

“Isn’t that… the Holy Grail? arch Is it okay for you to carry it around like that?”

“It’s just a big cauldron though, right?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

It was undeniable that Undry was a tremendous treasure that was at the level of Claiomh Solais but I had no use for it right now because Undry didn’t choose me as its master.

Magic Cauldron, Undry. legend It was one of the four great treasures of the Danann that I acquired after defeating Dun Scaith and was the treasure symbolizing the King of Gods Dagda’s Divinity of the Earth.

“What a shame… It’s a powerful item and we can’t even use it.”

“There’s no one that can, so it can’t be helped.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Let me tell you a secret.”

Unlike other artifacts, the 4 treasures were picky in the sense that they chose their owners. arcade Even in the case of Dun Scaith, it was more like he was living off of Undry like a parasite instead of making actual use of it.

This was going exactly like the previous iteration, where we couldn’t make use of Undry despite acquiring it.

“If you boil potatoes here… they become extremely delicious.”

“Nn? palette What is it?”

“Haht! atomic Really?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Well, even the myths label it as a cauldron that infinitely spawned food, so this must be how you are supposed to use it, right?”

“I, is that okay though? apple Treating a sacred item like that…”

“Every dish you create using this cauldron becomes the best delicacy in the world. voyage This is the best item you could hope for when camping.”

***

How far-reaching was the financial empire of the Dunareff family? beacon I became genuinely curious.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

The residents of the 21st street of the capital of the El Rath Kingdom, Rudene Lork and Suel Lork started yet another busy morning.

“Dear, did you see the letter that came this morning?”

The couple ran a small restaurant, and their morning started off early where they peeled potatoes to prepare for the morning session.

Although they were a normal and common pair of civilians who were living a peaceful and modest life, these days, there was a slight concern in their minds.

“From who, the unfilial man of our family? action No, I haven’t.”

“So what if he sends letters!? aluminum He is an undutiful child who doesn’t even show his face once!”

“How can you call him unfilial? abandon He’s been sending letters all the time.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“We raised him wrong! matrix We really did! atomic That little kid doesn’t even remember about his parents anymore now that he’s breathing the Academy air!”

“Ehew, don’t say that. admire He must have been busy.”

It was because their oldest son, Korin Lork, had never shown his face even once after entering the Academy in March last year.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

Seriously, the guys of this family were rather bad when it came to expressing their feelings. amateur The same was true for her son as well as her husband.

He had been greatly concerned already that his son was entering a guardian academy that was full of risk and hazards, so it was natural for him to feel like rotting away on the inside because his son was refusing to show his face even once.

Suel did not console her husband, who had a visibly sullen look on his face, because she knew it wouldn’t last long. arrow If he was that worried, why didn’t he write a letter to him?

“Busy? academy Sure! canvas You mean he was busy playing in the South last summer and strolling in the East last winter?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Are there clubs and societies in the Guardian Academy?”

“But Korin seems to be doing very well these days. academy He got promoted into something, and ‘Guardians’ was it? alpha He seems to have a club with his friends.”

“Why not? Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. atom It’s for young kids so of course there will be. echo Sia is also the head of a club in the Royal Academy, right? antique They’re both leaders wherever they go. antique I wonder who they took after.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

Where did all the complaints about the ‘undutiful child’ go?

“It must be me.”

“Anyway, he said he’s coming to the capital this holiday.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Really?”

Rudene suddenly turned with a flick with a bright smile on his face. aspect Seeing that, Suel grinned while handing over the letter that they received in the morning.

“Hmm… Hnn? antenna Royal banquet? accent Is he going to the banquet?”

“Look here. avalanche He’s coming to the capital with his friends.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“The Saintess got kidnapped recently, right? zenith I heard he did something important there.”

“I hope he’s not putting himself at risk.”

“Of course, a man ought to put themselves at risk for a greater future! agent Haha!”

“Hoho. advance That little boy must be really brave just like me.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“That boy. artist I wonder if he has a girlfriend now.”

Seemingly proud of his son, Rudene couldn’t hide the smile on his face as he read through the letter several times.

Although Korin was an unfilial child who didn’t show his face for one and a half years ever since he entered the Academy, he appeared to be pioneering his own path very well from what Rudene could see through the letter.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Hmm… That’s true.”

“But what if… he’s coming with his girlfriend to introduce her to us?”

“Well, he doesn’t look bad, but probably not because he’s coming with his friends. action Someone his age wouldn’t be going around with their friends when they have a girlfriend, right?”

“He said ‘friends’ though.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 169: Summer and with it, Trouble (1) by Indra Translations.

“Don’t be silly.”

The Lork couple started the day off with excitement as they waited for their son to return.

“Hoho. meadow We have to prepare an enormous feast.”

However, Rudene was still hopeful. alpha Just like him and his wife, his son was tall and had a decent appearance. sphere It was about time that he got himself ‘a’ girlfriend.
