Rebirth of the Ruined Noble

Chapter 33 Combat Training(3)



After a 20 minute break, everyone from the 'Kshatriya' class gathered at the Field. With 250 people here, it seemed quite crowded. The students were sharing their half-nervous half-excited expectations with their friends.

As I preferred quitter place, I walked to the back of the crowd and especially hid from the overly kind Evan. He would turn the mood so bright that I would get uncomfortable.

"..."

While I was trying to hide at the back of the crowd, the instructor Keating, showed up.

The cadets immediately stood in ten columns in front of him.

"I'm sure you all know what this lesson is about, so I'll announce the teams without explanation. Unless something special happens, this team will be the same until after the midterms."

Team formation. The students grew restless at the exciting yet nerve-wracking process.

A team generally consisted of five members – two close combat warriors, one sharpshooter, one supporter, and one mage. Warriors were usually close range combatant like spearman or swordsman, sharpshooters were the long ranged attacker, and supporters were people who ould aid the main damage dealer, mages obliviously referred to magicians.

The supporter had an additional role in protecting the magician. After all, magicians were important for the team.

In my previous life I was a close combatant swordsman, If I remember being in team with the class president and some others whom I don't even remember.

But in this life, my role was a bit....iffy!

I could be a long range attacked with gun, close range combatant with sword, while also play my role as a supporter with the spear.

Even the Instructor seemed concerned with my team placement as he looked at me and smiled awkwardly before assigning the teams.

"Team members will be selected fairly. Lower ranked students will be paired with higher ranked students."

As the teams were made using the magic formula to ensure equal power levels, it would be accurate...at least that is what the instructor say.

But, I could see the pitiful result with my own eyes.

[Team 1]

[Zephyr / Yura / Kain Ray / Raymond Penin]

[Team 2]

[Domian / Rosen / Noah / Julia Von Rozental]

...

...

[Team 5]

[Olivia Manson / Hazuki / Eren Pendragon / Luna Primrose]

"..."

Looking at my assigned team, I became lost for words.

Luna Primrose.

Ranked 6th in the overall freshmen ranking, the daughter of the Primrose marquise was on my team.

Looking around, I met her eyes. Her jewel-like eyes flashed with deep contempt and disdain. But that was only for a moment. By the time I blinked once, the negative feeling in her eyes was gone.

Surprisingly, she walked towards me with a smile. Her long hair fluttered with each of her dignified steps. Her beautiful lips moved modestly.

"It's nice to meet you."

"Ah, um, I..."

"Olivia Manson."

But I wasn't the one Luna greeted. Meeting her eye was also my imagination. She was talking to the girl standing behind me.I think you should take a look at

"Ah, hello."

"Weren't we on the same team before?"

She talked too politely for a 14-year-old, but that was how Luna Primrose liked to keep her distance.

"Yes? Ah, right, haha."

After exchanging just two sentences, Olivia broke out in a cold sweat. Luna was difficult to talk to, and it wasn't just because of her background and insane personality.

Luna Primrose and Babel Von Agnus were a couple officially, but not unofficially. Both their families had agreed and already engaged Luna to Babel. But Babel doesn't seemed to be interested in her.

At this point, it should be more like a one-sided crush from Luna.

"Ah, Hazuki is coming too."

"Hello..."

Hazuki was the name of another boy in our group, apparently he is from remote clan at the far north of the empire. He walked over towards us.

Luna glanced at him slightly displeased, then spoke.

"Who's the other person?"

"It's me."

Luna Primrose didn't like people who lacked confidence and self-esteem. As such, I stepped up confidently to give a good first impression. Hazuki and Olivia turned towards me first.

"Uh..."

Hazuki tilted his head as though he didn't know who I was.

"Ah, the guy who chose a gun."

When Oliva mentioned my previous feat, I checked Luna's expression. Unexpectedly, she didn't show any emotion. But that was even more frightening.

At that moment, Professor Keating shouted loudly.

"There's no time for chitchat. You should have gotten the coordinate and information of the monster you'll need to kill. Get going!"

They gave us a manual containing the information about the monster we are going to face and told us to go off.

A total of 50 teams. Including the other classes that joined in, there was a total of 200 teams.

Our mission was to head to the coordinate given to us and kill the monster there.

We were then ranked based on how quickly and how safely we completed our mission.

As soon as the instructor's voice rang out, Luna projected something using her projection device that she bought from her home.

<Giant Squid>

<Co ordinates - 13°31′N 144°50′E>

The monster's name and coordinate were written there.

Luna spoke tersely.

"Let's go. We can talk while we're moving."

I don't know why but she seemed to have assumed the role of our group leader.
