Filina paused for a moment and looked at the two of them, then walked towards the office building.
Leon’s expression was very bad. She had no intention of intervening, but she was concerned that Leon’s opponent was Carmen.
During the entrance exam, Carmen turned a blind eye on Leon even though he knew that the time for Leon’s exam was being delayed by someone else’s magic.
Perhaps he intended to drop Leon for being a commoner.
Filina stood up against the wall of the office building and quietly eavesdropped on their conversation.
“My father was a soldier who participated in the Kober War with the Imperial Palace Knights 9 years ago.”
Filina’s eyes widened at the sound coming out of Leon’s mouth.
He didn’t talk about his father much with his long-time colleagues. Perhaps it was because of his responsibility as the leader.
She knew him better than anyone that he hated putting his own burden on other people.
She couldn’t understand why Leon was telling Carmen about his father now.
“…The Kober War?”
Carmen frowned, biting his lips as if contemplating something.
“I heard that deputy commander Carmen also took part in the Kober War and commanded militia soldiers.”
That was nine years ago. Carmen was promoted to deputy commander of the swordsmanship academy just one year ago.
Carmen nodded his head as if he remembered, then looked at Leon and asked.
“I remember that there were very few soldiers who survived, but Sir Leon’s father was a militia soldier, so he died a very honorable death.”
Leon raised his lips at Carmen’s words and smiled.
“It is impressive that you still remember the fact that many soldiers lost their lives in the Kober War. Deputy commander.”
Leon said with a bright smile on his lips that was unusually seen.
Carmen looked at him with a blank expression on his face, then suddenly frowned slightly.
“I understand that the imperial palace did not take appropriate measures, and that the bereaved family held a protest for a while. Are Sir Leon’s family okay?”
He didn’t ask because he was worried about the rest of Leon’s family.
He was asking if there were protests.
There was no way Leon could not have felt the difference in Carmen’s voice.
