Chapter 130

Want me to take over the class? Well! Since its a favor for my disciple, I could do a special lecture. How many weeks? (Enrique)

The remaining semester. (Ivan)

This guy is completely insane. (Enrique)

After reflexively spewing profanity, Enrique paused for a moment to collect his thoughts.

He wasnt the kind of guy who would suddenly drop the entire class just because he didnt feel like teaching?

No, he was more like the epitome of responsibility.

Whats going on?

As her thoughts reached this point, something came to mind. Whenever something happened to this guy, it usually involved official duties.

Did Command give you another assignment? Youre not exactly field material anymore. Unless theres a civil war among dwarves. (Enrique)

Not certain yet. (Ivan)

If youre not certain, why is the commander heading to the field? (Enrique)

Because were not certain. (Ivan)

If the missions outline is clear and the direction of command is certain, theres no need for him to be directly involved. Allocating appropriate levels of manpower would suffice.

As he had reflected before, its impossible for him to intervene in every event in this world.

However, in this situation where its clear that its intertwined with the main story and the distinction between friend and foe is not yet clear, its not possible to entrust field agents.

Utilizing agents for tactical objectives that even the commander isnt certain about was not the modus operandi of an eradication unit.

Furthermore, there was one more advantage to the commander personally entering the field.

Krasilov is vulnerable to external intelligence. (Ivan)

Wow, you ruthless bastard. (Enrique)

Understanding his meaning, Enrique exclaimed with his mouth wide open.

If the commander of the intelligence unit personally goes to the front line and says, I came because our external intelligence is weak, what on earth will happen in that branch?

Enrique expressed her condolences to the unknown field command headquarters.

Well, if thats the case. I can handle teaching the kids. Its not that difficult. (Enrique)

Thank you. (Ivan)

What days? (Enrique)

Wednesday to Friday. (Ivan)

Enrique chuckled at Ivans words. Why three days?

Each worth 5 credits. Im counting on you. Ill send the course materials by this afternoon. (Ivan)

Wait, hold on. Three? Three classes? Each worth 5 credits? (Enrique)

Yeah. And Isabelle, Oscar, Elpheira, Ecdysis, and Eugene. Theyre planning to apply for credit substitution through external study this semester. Im also asking for your help with that. (Ivan)

Hey, wait! What? What?! (Enrique)

Thank you. I appreciate it. (Ivan)

Fifteen hours a week. Including the journalism department class shes teaching, it adds up to 18 hours. Its almost enough time to fulfill the minimum credits per semester.

As Enrique opened the door and left, she yelled back at Ivan.

This is truly insane!! (Enrique)

The door to the professors research lab closed coldly.

Autumn in Tylesse

Clack, clack.

Passing through the long tunnel at the border, unlike the snowy scene in Niigata, Japan, it felt like returning to summer after crossing the border of Krasilov.

Beyond the car window, a vast expanse of clear noon grassland stretched endlessly.

This is autumn. This is the weather. Ugh, really. (Isabelle)

The former kings perished before the heroes arrived.

It was a battlefield where the righteous fell first. Because those who carried the weak and volunteered to be a barrier against the onslaught of death always fell first.

It cannot go on any longer.

Peace built upon the bodies of the righteous should suffice once.

The heroes of the era must arrive faster than despair. It must be so, and it must be made to happen.

Fortunately, Ivan is well-versed in common sense. With his guidance, Isabelle can prepare more quickly.

After all, Koreans are experts in efficient leveling optimization.

Ivan glanced at the chattering Isabelle and then turned his gaze to look out the window.

Three days later, Ivan arrived at the capital of Tylesse, Saint Mathilde.

The train Ivan boarded stopped at Matil-Etuale Station, the largest train station in Saint Mathilde.

Matil-Etuale Station was one of the main trade routes that ran directly from the southeastern port city of Tylesse to Krasilov, passing through Saint Mathilde.

The train station at midday was incredibly crowded. It was packed to the brim, filling the entire vast station.

Isabelle began to nudge and boast to Ecdysis, who was gaping absent-mindedly. Unfortunately, Elpheira, who had seen Kalions aerial port, and Eugene, who was from Earth, didnt show much interest.

How is it? Uncle, its amazing, isnt? The Frechenkaya Station is nothing compared to this! (Isabelle)

Hmm. (Ivan)

Its roughly equivalent to Seoul Station.

A subtle comparison, but considering this era, its quite large. Ivan nodded honestly. He had encountered countless military supply trains on the battlefield, but he couldnt help but feel impressed when he saw such a thriving train station.

He knew many men who fought hoping that scenes like this would become commonplace.

And in the distance, one of those men, standing slightly crooked, smoking a cigarette and staring up at the sky, caught his eye.

Just a moment.

Ivan gestured to the lively Isabelle and stepped forward. The man, who had been leaning against a corner of the train station smoking a cigarette and exhaling deeply, weakly raised his hand.

Youve come.

Pavel.

Pavel looked at Ivan with tired eyes, then flicked his cigarette to the ground and shrugged his shoulders.

Why do I have to go through all this trouble?

Why are you here?

It was Her Majestys command. She told me to go as a diplomatic envoy.

He pulled out a notebook from his coat and handed it over. It was a simple identification document with the royal seal imprinted on it.

Ivan Petrovich Yeremov.

Third-grade diplomatic envoy.

Pavel brushed his hand and shrugged his shoulders.

Im your watchdog. They even gave you a diplomatic envoy title, worrying about what mischief you might get into.

Haha.

Ivan briefly recalled that scene and suddenly burst into laughter.

Seeing that, Pavel let out a deep sigh and extended his hand.

Well, its official business, so I guess I have to salute you. Take care, Assistant Ivan.

Yeah, Ill do my best.

Historically, diplomatic envoys were often the most representative spies of friendly nations.

A significant portion of the foreign intelligence departments agents were dispatched as part of diplomatic envoys.

Therefore, this meant that he could operate as a legally sanctioned spy for a friendly nation.
