44 – Preparing for Mutujae

“Are you okay? Seria?”

In response to Dayman’s quiet question, Seria trudged and moved her steps. She suddenly remembered something, but quietly turned her head back and looked at her mansion. After staring at her mansion for a long time, she suddenly collapses onto the floor.

“Black……”

All kinds of emotions seemed to burst out at once. Dayman quietly approaches her Seria and hugs her tightly.

“It has passed. It’s over.”

She wailed loudly for a while in the arms of Dayman. And after barely calming down, she smiles.

“I… Am I really ugly? Now?”

“Her hair is messy and her clothes are filthy with sweat and all her tears and runny nose.”

Daman wiped the tears from her face with his hand.

“But it is still pretty. A jewel is a jewel even if you put some dirt on it.”

“Let me just say it once…… You say it the same way.”

Seria laughs. Dayman picked her up and took her to her bike.

“Come on! Ride!!”

Seria knew where this bike came from as soon as he saw it.

“John?”

“That is correct. It’s ripped off in young people’s terms these days. Ruler. Shall we go?”

“To where?”

Deiman shrugs her shoulders as Seria gets into her back seat.

“There is no such thing as a destination. Just run until you calm down. Romantically. How is it?”

Seria silently nodded her head. Dayman started the engine and soon began to move away from Count Xavier’s family. Seria held Dayman’s waist tight like a baby and she stayed still for a while. Dayman didn’t even bother to talk to Seria.

I wonder if I ran like that for almost an hour and then ran again.

“Look. Ceria. See.”

“Ah!………”

As the motorcycle speeds along, the crisp night air hits her cheek. At Dayman’s words, Seria lifted her head from his back and looked around her, and soon a fantastic night view came into her eyes. The motorcycle was running on a mountain road.

Maybe it was because it was a mountain road, and under the bright moonlight and sparsely visible stars, the buildings of the city were shining like jewels. Why? It’s a city I’ve always seen, but seeing it here gave me a completely different feeling.

Dayman began to drive his bike slowly and tastefully at low speed, as if to let him enjoy the sights. Seria grabbed Dayman’s waist tightly.

“Me. Why did you come to save me?”

“You asked for help. So I went to get him.”

“I was a count. Although smaller in scale than other aristocratic families, it is a fairly well-known county family. If I made a mistake, I could have been arrested and sent to prison.”

“I don’t know. I’m a crazy bastard, so I didn’t argue with that in the first place. I just went to get him because he asked for help.”

Seria held Dayman’s waist tighter. Dayman was looking ahead. So Seria thought it was a relief that she couldn’t see her face.

My heart was beating like crazy.

“Wasn’t it scary? Could you face the count’s wrath?”

“If I was scared of that, I wouldn’t have confronted the academy professors in the first place, and I wouldn’t have accepted you as my apprentice, who said he would destroy Octavia, her clique of the 1st princess.”

“Why? Why did you do that?”

“Because I think that’s the right thing to do. I have lived that way all my life and will continue to live that way.”

Seria smiles lightly.

“Nice. I don’t think I can live like you. I’m very timid… As you can see today, I’m afraid of small places. If you hadn’t come, I would have been afraid and would have listened to everything my parents said.”

“Awesome b*tch. I am also a human with many flaws. Uncultured, dirty temper, dirty words and actions. Since I was a child, I was not properly educated at home and grew up, this sh*t. So shouldn’t a good person like you be by my side!! Be mindful!!”

Dayman gives a thumbs up.

“Every strength is a different expression of a weakness. So, it is necessary to endlessly look back and reflect on oneself and fix it. That’s how it’s constantly evolving and growing. Any organization, be it a society or a human being. The difference between having and not having this attitude is the most important.”

“Thank you.”

“You don’t have to thank me. You had that attitude. Passion to grow and develop! It is my opinion that such a person should be helped. My help didn’t come for nothing. You are a wonderful and pretty person, so I helped you. So don’t belittle yourself too much.”

Seria’s body shakes intermittently as if she was crying again. She asks again, trying to wipe away her tears.

“Dayman.”

“Why?”

“I am no longer a noble.”

“I know.”

“I have no money. I’m broke now I have to worry about how to pay for the next semester at Romellen Academy.”

“I will give it to you. I have a lot of money too. And to solve such a financial problem, wouldn’t it be that he had a relationship with Yu Seol-ah So-jeo? You think of nothing else but winning the Erancal Mutuje.”

“My personal connections are gone. The various connections that I was able to have because I was an aristocrat… None of those things.”

“I don’t have any personal connections. So, it’s something we can do from now on. What are you worried about?”

“And I……I……I……”

Daman bursts into laughter at the stuttering voice.

“Seria. When I first approached you, it was obviously your knowledge or connections. I was thinking of using something like that. As you can see, I’m a little bit less of a human being. I needed a smart young man like you.”

“Then now I……”

Dayman firmly cut off Seria’s stuttering words. And as she declares, she says.

“But it is not because you are noble or knowledgeable that I accepted you as my pupil and trained you together. Because you have passion and will. In a word, I accepted you as a disciple because you were a wonderful and beautiful person, not for any reason or other purpose.”

Seria didn’t answer. Dayman can feel her hand holding her waist trembling. Dayman quietly patted her hand.

“Seria. Be confident. You are a wonderful person.”

Conversation cuts off. Only the sound of motorcycles crashing through the mountain road was quietly ringing.

When Seria, who had been chattering, was silent for over 10 minutes, Dayman became worried and tried to look behind her.

“Seria. Are you okay? Why are you suddenly silent…”

“f*ck!! Don’t look!!!! Look ahead!!!!”

An urgent voice bursts out. Dayman looked back at those words.

“Where is the problem?”

“…….Uh. No problem.”

It was a lie.

She was about to realize that her heart was out of control. A heartbeat that explodes like a runaway locomotive.

A hot red face.

A feeling she had never felt before in her life.

But the cool-headed reason told me exactly what this feeling was.

Maybe that’s why I was even more embarrassed.

“Ah!! I used my body badly, but I’m hungry!! Where would you like to go and have a bite to eat? Ceria? From what I’ve heard, there are stores that are open 24 hours a day!! How is it?”

“No. Let’s just go around the mountain road some more. I’m hungry.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

She was Seria who did not want to go to bright places.

Daman obediently followed her words, and the man and woman decided to cycle around the mountain road a few more times.

In the meantime, Seria desperately held on to her Dayman’s waist, buried her face in her back, and prayed and begged.

Please let this heated face and beating heart calm down before you get off the bike.

“The mid-term grade is……. Both of them are A+.”

“Then it is not paid? Professor?”

“Yes. Dayman. It is not paid. There’s no way I can give you a remuneration for such a performance.”

Professor Arkham Felt showed how far his dark circles had come down. While Dayman rescued Seria, the academy was in an unprecedented state of uproar. Fearing the wrath of the Marquis of Heferon, the four academy professors submitted their resignations at the same time and went down to the countryside as if they were running away.

Thanks to that, their vacant position was filled by the overtime and vigil of Professor Arkhamfeld, who was in the most appropriate position. It was all because of the madness in front of my eyes, but I just showed my excellent skills, so I couldn’t say it was my fault.

“Uh ha ha ha!!!! Professor!! Thank you!!! So, you don’t have to be kicked out of the academy anymore, right?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Do you listen to lectures as you like?”

“……If you pay the tuition.”

“Ha ha ha!! Thank you!!!!”

After taking a resentful look at the Golden Sun cub and Seria, who burst out laughing loudly, Professor Arkhamfelt rubbed his forehead with his fingers.

“I think the midterm evaluation is over. I am on vacation for 2 months now. What are you planning to do in the meantime?”

At the words of Professor Arkhamfeld, who thought that this bomb-like bastard, who didn’t know when, where and in what form would explode, at least knew what to do, Dayman smiled and deepened her concern.

“Me and Seria. I will participate in the Erancal Mutu Festival.”

“………You are going to participate in the martial arts festival?”

“That combat magic system I showed you during the midterm evaluation. Its strength must be imprinted on the world!! hahahaha!!!”

Just hearing that word already makes my head hurt.

The academy was officially a politically neutral organization, but behind the scenes, fierce fighting was going on. Most of the students and professors in the Faculty of Knights and Combat Mages were from the 1st Princess faction, and most of the general faculties, students engaged in wealth-related fields, were from the 1st Prince faction.

Now, Dayman’s words were no different than saying that he would openly feed the 1st Princess faction, which was in charge of military power and military force among the huge factions.

It’s safe if you participate in the Erancal Mutuje and get eliminated after getting a high score, but considering Dayman’s performance in the midterm evaluation, there was a good chance of winning.

It was said that if that happened, it would be an all-out war with the first princess.

From noble mtl dot com

She was a woman who would never let her scratch her own ego.

“……Good results……I hope.”

But as expected, there was nothing Professor Arkhamfeld could do. All he could do was say that in a trembling voice.

“Yes! There will be good results. I’ll show you how the world turns upside down!! hahahahaha!! Ruler!! Let’s go Seria!!!”

“Thank you. Professor.”

As the two students greeted each other and left, Professor Arkhamfeld silently took out a headache pill and took a few pills.

In the future, her life as a professor would only get worse if it got harder because of that madman, but it wasn’t going to get any better.

“Come on! It’s over! I will be on vacation now. It’s time to discuss Erancal Mutuje in earnest!!”

“Yes. By the way… What should we discuss?”

“Wouldn’t that be obvious? We need to find out about the opponents we have to deal with, and discuss the rules or process of Mutuje. And we should discuss the development of my 5th line combat magic system, right?”

“As I said. I’m not an aristocrat anymore, so it’s going to be hard to use my network. Besides, even if my title of nobility was maintained, collecting that much information would only be possible with considerable money and connections. Besides, we can’t train in the container box of that empty lot forever…”

When Seria was pouring out her worries at those words.

“You don’t have to worry about that at all. Because I have everything ready.”

As if waiting for the two of them, a woman dressed in a neat oriental uniform. Yoo Seol-ah revealed her appearance at the right time.

“The vacation must have started. Let’s talk about martial arts in earnest. I’ll show you where you two will stay throughout the vacation. Would you like to follow me?”

“Accommodation? What kind of place is it?”

At Seria’s question, Yu Seol-ah spat out as if it was nothing.

“You must know the Crown Building, right?”

“I know. It is one of the landmarks of Erancal.”

“I left all 10 of the top floors empty. It was a place prepared to be used as one of the training grounds in the city of Geumcheon. You will like it because it is full of all kinds of professional manpower and training equipment necessary for combat training.”

“…….Does the top 10 floors of the Crown get emptied right away?”

Yoo Seol-ah smiles when asked if she can do as she pleases with one of the most famous buildings in the capital.

“Of course. I am the owner of that building.”
