"What is there to be strange about, the colonel once said that life is the result of the accumulation of continuous choices, from birth to death, everyone is constantly rolling the dice, and their own life has to be rolled by themselves. ”
With his hands on his chest, a mature and steady body that has nothing to do with his youthful appearance appears in Nidhogg. Looking at the serious captain of the guards, Roland realized that Li Lin would choose Nidhogg to be the captain of the guards not just because he was an ancient species.
"Children also have to make their own choices, and learn to be responsible for their own choices from the gains and losses of their choices, and how to avoid mistakes, which is growth. What are you going to do? You heard it on the radio just now, right? When you recover from your illness, you will have to take the annual entrance examination for the junior military academy, and you have no right to refuse. Of course, although the entrance examination is rigorous, it is not difficult for you to have received a comprehensive elite education. The real trouble is after you enroll. ”
With a "Defeated for You" expression, Nidhogg ended his sigh.
"It is an elite school that specializes in cultivating the backbone of the future army, and those who can enter that school are the lucky few who stand out among the outstanding ones who are excellent in academic evaluation. This also means that the students inside are all elites with a strong sense of urgency, and they will look at the little hairy children who are different from themselves with discriminatory eyes. You should understand what that means, right?"
It means that the conflict in the Tiergarten Forest Park will be repeated that day, no, it will be worse than then.
The members of the 20-odd children's regiment alone can make things happen like this, and there are not a dozen or dozens of children of the same type in the junior military academy, but a few hundred elf students in an entire boarding school, and you can imagine what kind of situation the study and life will be.
"Also, the Tristan you fought with also enrolled in the junior military school. His grades are also quite good, and he has many excellent qualifications recommended by teachers, and he gave up the opportunity to be promoted directly. Judging from the fact that he insists on passing the entrance exam to enter the junior military academy, he is also a guy with extremely strong self-esteem?"
In other words, among the many competitors of the military academy, the one who needs to be paid the most attention is the Tristan of the Wertersbach family? Judging from the experience of the battle that day. It's a very difficult guy to deal with......
Thinking abruptly stopped, Roland looked at Nidhogg with wariness, and the black dragon was looking at him with an elusive, mysterious smile. This dragon clan, who has always been lukewarm to himself, has any reason to remind himself, or say-
"There's no conspiracy, and I'm not going to have a good relationship with you, I just want to see. ”
A cold speech that understood Roland's thoughts was inserted into the skull, followed by some strange concern that flowed into the cerebral marrow.
"You have excellent qualifications—whether it's the ability to learn and comprehend all kinds of knowledge, whether it's the ability to hold a sword and fight. The ability to wield a wand and sense Mana - you have all three of these talents that ordinary people can only dream of. It can be said that you are the one who has the most potential to be called a [genius] outside of the colonel. How far will a person like you grow in such a difficult environment, and what will he be able to do with his talents?"
The little one is full of possibilities. Depending on their qualifications and hard work, they will be able to achieve different things when they grow up.
Roland has amazing qualifications and is mentally resilient. However, when I was a child, I was praised by adults, thinking that my growth was nothing more than this and I slacked off, and there were not many cases of becoming a waste wood when I grew up. In the same way, it cannot be simply assumed that Roland will grow into an outstanding talent.
"Lord Li Lin has placed great expectations on your possibility, and can you bear this expectation and be commensurate with it?" I want to know this, so I tell you this information, so that you can be mentally prepared first. ”
A slight sense of concern and awkwardness came to his face, and a wonderful warmth welled up in Roland's heart.
Loyal.
What Nidhogg holds for Li Lin is a kind of faith-like fanatical worship and absolute loyalty, and for Li Lin, he can even suppress his own emotions and extreme loyalty.
Since arriving in Alfheim, Nidhogg and Roland have been at odds, and their relationship has never gone beyond the scope of their business. Obviously, Nidhogg didn't like Roland, but this time he took the initiative to provide Roland with intelligence and analysis, and the reason was his loyalty to Li Lin.
"If you are embarrassed in school, you will bring shame to His Excellency Li Lin and bring him trouble. Anyway, keep one thing in mind and give me all the energy to go to school!"
Even if he thought in his heart [What are you kidding, I don't want to deal with this kind of little kid], but his loyalty and rational thinking to Li Lin still prevailed. Serving the only sovereign wholeheartedly, he prioritized everything about what he was doing to him, and he did it now.
On the other hand, he muttered awkwardly in his mouth, kept scratching his navy blue hair, and his rough demeanor revealed a kind of youth that made people laugh, looking at the captain of the personal guard at the time. Roland only then remembered that, whether he was in human form or not, Nidhogg was actually a very cute and easily shy boy.
[Although he is a hundred-year-old dragon, he is actually a child, serious, loyal, and very capable, completely different from me......]
Not only is it impeccable as a model of the attendant's personal guard, but even his daily behavior is more mature than others. Looking at the excellent Niederhogg, Roland couldn't help but compare himself to it. It turned out to make him want to sigh. Not knowing what to say about it, the door to the dormitory was pushed open.
Bump -!!
The wood slammed against the wall with a terrifying sound, and before Roland could come to his senses, the visitors had already rushed over.
"Finally...... I've finally found it!!"
Freya pounced in front of Niedhogg with her chest, which had no signs of growth at all, and the violentness of the momentum made Niedhogg instinctively fearful.
Major Freya of the General Staff threw her books and a pocket on the table, her eyes glowing green, and she pounced on Roland.
At the moment before the devil's claw touched the collar of Roland's pajamas, the elf girl's collar was grabbed by Nidhogg's right hand, which was much smaller than herself, and the black dragon pressed her forehead full of black lines in great distress and asked:
"I'm sorry to interrupt you, Major, but I would like to know, Major Freya, what do you want to do with this guy today? The Colonel has given me the task of caring for this guy, and I must be responsible for his safety. Major...... You must have come up with another idea for the whole person, right?"
