Chapter 2: Girl and Contract
Loran Academy is the oldest and most famous academy in mainland Eileen. The best students and the most outstanding teachers from all over the continent are gathered here. The three former heroes were all graduates of this academy. It could be said that talented people came forth in large numbers. Loran Academy was therefore hailed as “the cradle of the hero” and “the hope of humanity” and other similar titles.
However, Lin Xiao is not interested in being a hero. The real purpose of joining Loran Academy is to become a “Reserve Hero!”
As the name implies, in order to stabilize the military during the punitive expedition against the demon king and to avoid the tragedy of the army breaking down after the hero dies, the position of “Reserve Hero” came into existence.
After the hero falls, the reserve hero can stand up immediately. He can continue to fight in place of the hero and take the Excalibur that symbolizes honor! To represent humanity! To put an end to the evil demon king! Blah, blah, blah…
I’ll save the lies for government officials. As a reserve hero, you can enjoy the generous treatment that is second only to the real hero. Although there is no real power, you don’t have to use your life as cannon fodder. On ordinary days, you can eat and drink with public funds, you can be a good-for-nothing that waits for death while spending public funds. How great would that be!
Today, however, Lin Xiao’s dreams of becoming a reserve hero were fucked up by himself!
Looking at his fluctuating face, Teacher Woos thought that his magical energy consumption was too high. He said, “Lin Xiao, go back and rest. There are classes tomorrow morning. Don’t be late.”
Yes, if all fails then retreat!
“Okay, teacher.” Lin Xiao nodded his head, pretended to be tired, ignored Rosie’s envious and hateful gaze and fled from the school.
