As the days passed at the Briena Military Academy, Napoleon started to grow taller.
Unfortunately, the others were either older or had better nutrition and developed earlier, generally starting to grow taller sooner.
Not to mention Anning, who was already an eighteen-year-old adult.
So, as a result, Napoleon was still the shortest person in the class and even the grade.
Whenever Anning, his "backer," wasn't around, he would inevitably be mocked by his classmates as the "Corsican potato."
One day after summer began, Anning's military uniform ripped a large hole, beyond Vanni's sewing skill level, so he went to a tailor shop in town to repair it.
When he came out of the tailor shop after fixing the uniform, he saw a group of Briena Military Academy officer cadets running excitedly.
The leading guy shouted loudly: "Hurry up, if we're slow, we'll miss it. The Corsican potato is dueling someone!"
Anning was shocked.
