  *[Greenheart Abbey's library nourishes Bard's spiritual world, enabling him to break free from the shackles of reality and see everything from a higher perspective. Knowledge does not necessarily change destiny, but Bard's destiny is changed by knowledge]

  ————

   Army Officer School

  [External Admission: Ivory Tower Officer Favor-1; Alliance Army Prestige-3; Tactics-2]

  *[Most Union Reserve officers had been together for six years when they entered the Army Academy. So no matter what Bud does, he can't really be accepted by the "Ivory Tower Officer Corps". Even if some people don't say it, they still remember Bud as a stranger who only joined in the seventh year]

  ———————————————

   Courses taken:

   General Studies: Rhetoric, History, Mathematics, Geometry, Law, International Law, Old Language, Ancient Language;

   Military science disciplines: tactics, fortifications, fortress tactics, drawing and use of military maps, war history, topography, horse science, health, accounting;

  Military academic subjects: equestrian, swordsmanship, weapons, field surveys, field tactics, war history travel, annual exercises, routine duties.

  ———————————————

   Active Ability:

   long sword [C mediocre]

  *[Compared to those students who have been learning swordsmanship for six years, and even got their first long sword just after walking (yes, that's you! Winters!), Bard's swordsmanship can be described as pulpy. Weak forehand, poor backhand, loose footsteps, unresponsiveness, lack of foundation, and skill pulls.

   Therefore, the ivory tower officers always had a hint of pity and deliberately released water when they practiced with Bud. Bud knew this well, but he never complained, just silently redoubled his practice.

   However, the lack of foundation and talent cannot be made up by hard work alone, and Bard's swordsmanship has only just reached the passing level in the end. But on the other hand, although Bard's swordsmanship will pass, only he knows how much he has spent in order to make up for the lack of foundation and talent. ]

  ———

   Matchlock [A+ Excellent]

  *[The musket is much easier to learn than swordsmanship. With enough patience and steady arms, Bud soon became the best shooter at the Army Academy after he entered the school.]

  ———

   Equestrian [B+ Mastery]

  *[Many times, knowing how to raise horses does not mean being good at horseback riding. Bud learned equestrianism systematically after entering the Army Academy]

  ———

  General Weapons [B Master]

  *[Teach the calm and reliable soldier to use the spear, the brave young soldier to use the sword and shield, and the clever and nimble soldier to use the musket, and a qualified army officer should be good at all of them]

  ———

   apparatus [C-rusty]

  *[Uh...the wheel should be able to turn, right? ]

  ———

   Blasting [C rusty]

  *[No smoking in the library]

  ———

  Alchemy [F knows nothing]

  *[Alchemy? The secret method of turning stone into gold recorded in the book? I don't believe there is such a thing. ]

  *[Bard has never disclosed his religious beliefs, but he believes that religions have real meanings]

  ————

  Street Wisdom 6

  *[self-taught monastic scribe +2; experience +1]

  *[For Bard, life as a monastery servant didn’t just mean copying books and wiping sacristy. As the largest landowner and religious institution in the area, Greenheart Abbey holds not only the souls of the tenant farmers, but their lives on earth. The monastery is a miniature government, and Bard was trained in it at an early age]

  ————

  Tactical Literacy 5

  *[Class background +3; practical experience +1; external admission -2]

  *[The Union Army has never lacked junior officers with excellent tactical literacy and bravery, but there is a shortage of scalpers who are good at arithmetic transcription, have enough patience, and can handle mountains of paper without complaint. Therefore, most of the time, Bud will be quickly removed by the civilian department. This also causes him to have less practical experience than his colleagues]

   Farmer's Son

  *[Bud does not need to identify with the working people because he was a working people and he never forgot about it]

  ————

  Reliable Comrade

  *[You can always trust Bud, just like you can always trust KV2]

  ————

   Grim bystander

  *[Growing up experience taught Bard how to observe everything from the perspective of a third person without emotion. This makes him often an observer within the team rather than a leader. It also allows him to always make rational decisions—even when emotionally unacceptable]

  ————

   steadfast

  *[Realism is often the beginning of corruption and an excuse for the corrupter to justify himself. But for Bud, he will not hesitate to make compromises with reality when necessary, but that is just a compromise]

  *[No one can save everyone, only those who are willing to be saved can be saved and are worth saving]

  ————
