41 – Beat the academy.

Amelia sat at her desk, haggard.

Usually, her watery skin was crumbly, and dark circles came down thickly.

It was because of an ‘incident’ that Irene warned about recently. Because of this, she couldn’t sleep properly for nearly 5 days and couldn’t even go home.

‘Should I close my eyes for a bit?’

Still, it was after things were sorted out to some extent. All she had to do was wait, so Amelia was about to get her first sound sleep.

“Captain! It’s a big deal!”

But before she could close her eyes, she straightened her posture at the sound she heard.

Gilbert gasped for breath as he nearly slammed through the door.

“Young master Louis! The captain’s younger brother!”

Amelia opened her eyes, which were slowly closing. She spurred on and stood up.

“Lou, what happened to Ruid? What did you break in your sleep this time?”

Gilbert quickly took out the object he had hidden in his grasp and pulled it.

Ppiririk.

With a loud noise, colorful papers sat on Amelia’s head.

It was an artifact called the ‘Surprise Celebration’. It is inexpensive, so it is mainly used for common people’s birthdays.

“… ….”

Amelia’s eyebrows snapped and twisted.

Gilbert was startled and quickly explained.

“Chu, congratulations. The leader’s younger brother made remarkable achievements. Well, what do you mean by catching a warlock?”

“A warlock?”

“Precisely their minions. As a result of the investigation, it was said that he had been dormant in the academy for a long time. If you look at the plaza around the Every Library, you can see the black magician’s minion sealed by Prince Louis. hahahaha!”

Gilbert smiled brightly, but Amelia did not.

“… hahahaha.”

Gilbert said with a straight face and a rigid posture.

“Sorry.”

“… Sir Gilbert. Shame on you if you lose a player to a kid five years younger than us.”

Amelia sighed and turned over her papers.

“Ruid is not a fairy who magically erases our mistakes. Please don’t bother me. Shut down the Every Library immediately and put this under unwritten rule.”

Ruid was still feeling skeptical about the academy.

Amelia knew Louis well. If the child keeps trying to annoy someone, he will run away.

Besides, it was the case they were already chasing. The fact that there is an existence presumed to be a warlock in the system to commit a crime.

Although Louise shrugs her shoulders for doing such a great job, Amelia’s shame is greater for her. And I was worried that this would get into Irene’s ears.

Irene is definitely…….

– Why don’t you quit the academy and come to clear the snow? There seems to be no reason for you to be there.

“Uh…… Well, that would probably be difficult.”

Gilbert said, wiping his cold sweat with a handkerchief.

“Rumors have already spread widely within the academy. Above all, too much to hide… It is public.”

“Public?”

“Yes. The existing Every Library has been destroyed, and it is sealed with a spear stuck in the air. You can see it all by just passing by.”

Amelia’s eyes trembled anxiously.

“Then… What is the Academy’s response?”

“I think they are thinking of making an official statement. It’s not like there’s a fuss in the magic academia… ”

“What, what?”

“It’s great magic. I heard that it is one level different from conventional magic.”

Gilbert paused as he spoke. Because Amelia’s expression was very bad.

“Good job…… Isn’t it?”

Amelia tousled her hair. A cold sweat broke out.

**

Delrin’s lake was no different from Ruid’s master bedroom.

It is somewhat cut off from the outside world, and only relatives can come and go.

However, that personal space was being invaded.

Clifford was preaching to Louis with his hands behind his back.

“You bastard. This incident could not be passed off as a joke. Clarify the case properly. Warlocks are evil that should not exist.”

Ruyd was very stressed by Clifford talking to Delrin’s Lake, but he kept his manners to a minimum.

“I was sleeping in a place I liked, but someone attacked me, so I instinctively responded.”

“Are you saying that magic was suddenly used while sleeping? Don’t say funny things It takes at least a week to use such perfect magic. No matter how genius you are, you cannot violate the laws of magic.”

Clifford said grimly.

“In other words, you bastard only knew that the warlock’s minions would appear.”

“I didn’t know.”

Ruid was in trouble.

It has been like this since before. I don’t believe you even if I tell you the truth.

The situation is expected. The ‘goblet of magical power’ responds to his own magic, and it seems that the spear is maintained as infinite power is realized.

I’d like to say this, but……

From how you found the holy relic, did you cover it up… Prove it.

It was obvious that it would bother me more like this.

And I don’t know why I have to tell you the result of my reasoning.

I hoped that you would figure this out through research. If you can’t figure it out, it’s a lack of ability.

“…… I don’t mean to reprimand you. Louis.”

Clifford crouched down to meet the sullen Louis.

“That’s why this case is serious. If you’re having trouble answering about magic, just say this. Where is the warlock?”

Ruid stared blankly at the sky.

Sun. And two satellites. One of them is still visible. With that you can find out the date.

It was half covered.

That meant it wasn’t the right time yet, and there was nothing Ruid could say.

“I really don’t know. Please leave now.”

“… Then at least tell me what you know.”

Louis shut her mouth tightly. It was a repetition of the same words from before. If I tell the truth, I’ll argue with you, ‘You actually know?’

‘I really hate it.’

His chest was tight, and his head ached.

Ruid wanted to rest. Without thinking.

But it keeps making me think.

For Ruid, the situation itself was stressful. He wanted to escape quickly.

Clifford looked at Ruid and said in a low voice.

“You seem to be misunderstanding something. This is a different issue. Warlocks disrupt the order of the world. Don’t you know that covering it up even though you know it means that you could also become an accomplice?”

Clifford’s speech was forceful.

He has been in the position of president for a long time. It was because this method of speaking to students was effective.

“If you are a noble, fulfill your duties as a noble. If you were born well and lived easier than others, you should have a sense of responsibility.”

To Ruid, it felt like the president had told him to ‘behave as if he possessed the world’s strongest person’.

Is it because he was stabbed or because he was annoyed?

Ruid was angry for the first time after being possessed by this world.

“Then what about commoners?”

“What?”

“They say that the academy is equal. You mean take away the rights of the nobles and take responsibility?”

“At most, four years. Can’t you put up with that momentary irrationality? After graduation, a great aristocrat like you will live happily ever after. Putting yourself in their shoes, even for a moment, is a valuable experience that will become flesh and blood in the future.”

Ruid was born in a democracy.

So, I knew that the first emperor’s opinion, ‘I hope there will be equality at least within the academy’, is a very progressive concept.

Even though it may be dismissed as bullsh*t by the people of the caste system, the value of equality was one of the few correct answers mankind has found.

However, I couldn’t stand the president’s logic.

Does strong power come with a strong price?

Should we give for others?

Of course it could have been.

Ruid himself had the heart to prevent too great a risk.

Because it can be done and it is not difficult.

But when someone else asked for it, it got really annoying.

“And you bastard! Aren’t you already living selfish enough? I don’t even take classes, I live with whatever I want to do. Give this once! Take a team of investigators. In order to uncover the truth about the black magician, whoever has your talent…… “

Ruid felt something in his heart snapping when he heard the word ‘survey team’.

“I don’t like it.”

“What, what, you bastard!”

“Why should I?”

“Black magic inevitably brings ruin! Could a magician deny that value?”

World order, what peace?

I don’t know why I should care about that.

Inner peace was more important to Ruid.

But now my inner peace is being threatened.

“It’s not my role to catch warlocks. I’m just a student, and it’s the academy’s job to protect them from warlocks. Do it yourself. The president is also a great wizard.”

Besides, I don’t know what that is, but he said that if it wasn’t for him, as the president said, a big disaster would have happened.

Didn’t you block yourself anyway?

Then you helped me. You can’t tell me to do more there.

Ruid’s blue eyes stared at Clifford.

“Please do not accept favors as rights, President. And, because of the president, I made up my mind.”

Ruid was angry, but he said what he had been holding in his heart for a long time.

“I’m going to hit the academy.”

**

Ruid thought he had endured a lot.

He was stressed just by seeing the rude words and actions of the commoners.

Various hatreds flew around.

Commoners always have a lot of complaints. The same goes for the rector. That old man, it bothers me that he yells at me every time I speak.

Ruid hated loud noises. When I see such a person, he is always overcome by the urge to cast a silence spell.

However, he was able to endure it because the blade of that hatred had never been pointed at him.

He always took a step back and stood by the sidelines. Even if aggro popped up from time to time, it was something that I would frown at once.

But the moment that hatred is directed at you-

“Now I’m sick of it.”

I got tired of it.

I understood why the original ‘lazy Ruid’ was extremely reluctant to allow other people to enter Delrin’s Lake.

He knew. That other people are hell.

Ruid confided everything to Hercy.

I’m leaving the academy.

I’ve been patient enough, but I don’t think it will work.

Hersy’s eyes trembled subtly as she listened to the story.

“Tell my sister too.”

Ruid was not wearing his usual uniform.

It was a fluffy robe.

“Lou, Ruid… “

Tears welled up in Hercy’s eyes.

“Are you sure you have to leave?”

“… Why do you talk like it’s the last time?”

Ruid wiped away Hercy’s tears.

“But, but…… You’re going back to the North.”

“Isn’t it?”

“… Yes?”

“It will be in the islands. The villa is here.”

Hersy sniffed and stopped crying.

“Were you not going back to the North?”

Louise nodded her head.

“Because Ame noona is here. You will be sad if I go.”

Hercy was a good friend.

Amelia was her family.

So Louis wanted her to stay here for a while.

Because you can go to the north any time.

“Instead of.”

She had no regrets about leaving the academy.

However, what bothered me was Hersy. Amelia is strong, so it doesn’t matter, but Hercy is a character who becomes a villain in the original work and faces an impoverished ending.

Louis held out her fox.

“I’ll lend you this.”

[Yes, yes?]

Miho turned her head to Louis in embarrassment. Louis stared at him and said.

“You protect Hercy.”

[That’s not difficult, but…… ]

“Do you like it?”

[No. I like hersy too.]

Let’s prepare a minimum safety device.

“Louid… “

Hersy looked at her with moved eyes. He was just like a deer.

“If you have this, it will be easy for you to find me. Because it is connected Please tell my sister too.”

Hersy nodded as he received the fox. Then he asked cautiously.

“… Can I visit you?”

“Yes. Whenever.”

Hersy’s expression brightened.

Ruid waved her hand at Hercy.

“Hello. See you later.”

“Yes!”

My steps were light.

Before leaving the academy, he looked back one last time.
