Chapter 234.
Arriving at their accommodations, the knight school students received a lecture on supplies at the Adventurer's Guild exercise hall after having a simple meal for lunch. Unfortunately, I was one of the three people chosen to be a lecturer alongside Fiona and Dano. We were appointed as temporary instructors at the knight school.
Originally, a veteran with a lot of experience like the mustached ahjussi in the Asterium branch would have been picked, not a newbie like me. And yet, the reason I was chosen as a temporary instructor was simple. I was the one going to the Alps.
Well, my students were in the low-rank knight school, so it wasn't that difficult. This simple thing gave me enough for a lecture. However, the problem was that my age was the same as the students of the low-rank Knights School.

For this, theyll naturally understand once they have to survive on a finger-sized piece of moldy bread, so I skipped any additional explanation. Normally, it was quicker to comprehend by suffering personally rather than being given an explanation like this.
"Third, the fact that we could be raided means that through information warfare, we can induce an enemy raid based on our supply lines. When we strategi
