Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

70 – Reflecting (1)

The quickest way to unravel the tangled thread is to break it.

But if you cut it off because it’s annoying, the thread will be useless again.

If the thread is yours, it’s fine, but if it’s someone else’s, you’ll have a problem.

“Young master Louis. Why did you blow up the main building?”

“To break the barrier… “

Ruid spoke weakly. Phenicia had a lot of horns.

Even Vice-Chancellor Phenicia, who had always been on the side of Ruid, did not hit the shield this time.

“There were about 10 minutes until the academy faculty canceled the barrier. That is no excuse.”

Ruid flinched slightly, then turned his head away.

“Sorry.”

“Haa…. Anyway, I can’t just go through something like this. It’s a three-month salary cut, as well as repair costs.”

“… !”

Ruid was banned from pocket money.

That was difficult.

“That… “

Phenicia’s eyebrows twitched.

“That?”

“No, nothing.”

She shrugged her shoulders sullenly.

Opening the ax eye, Phenicia put down the paper and said.

“The reason I went this far is because I am Prince Louis. Please be careful next time.”

“… Yes.”

Ruid trudged along.

‘Mom was very angry.’

Victoria was as angry as ever. She didn’t say anything for long, but she did and she was more scared.

So did Amelia. She believed that it would work out well and followed her, but she said that she did not betray her own expectations in that way.

‘Did I go too far?’

I had no choice but to break the barrier, but I did it because I didn’t want to solve this episode on my own.

If it was karma, it was karma.

‘Anyway, it’s difficult without pocket money.’

Of course, the subspaces were connected.

But Louis wasn’t such an outrageous kid as to ignore Victoria’s warning and rob her treasure chest.

Living in a system costs a lot of money. Ruid wrote almost as if he was using money.

Now, that life is goodbye for the time being.

Louise should apologize to Amelia properly, she thought, just turning her corner.

How did she know she was broken, Damon was leaning with his arms crossed in her alley.

“… ….”

Ruid didn’t bother to say hello to her and she quietly walked away. It was time for her to pass.

“Why did you blow up the main building?”

Damon spoke up. Louis stopped her steps. With a wry expression on her face, she looked up at Damon.

“It was a mistake.”

“It was a mistake. You make absurd excuses.”

Damon opened her closed eyes. His red eyes contained her Louise.

“I will ask you one question.”

“Yes.”

“What did I do that day?”

“… ….”

Damon’s words were filled with deep futility.

Ruid’s expression hardened.

Damon turned his head to stare into the air.

“You brought down the painstaking tower built by your students by yourself. Be ashamed of the guilt of wasting the efforts of those who tried hard.”

Damon walked the other way, not wanting an answer.

Ruid looked up at her sky with her dazed face.

‘Did I think it was too easy?’

Suddenly, Ruid remembered that this place was not in a novel, but in reality.

“Captain, your younger brother is here.”

Gilbert, who has been awake for nearly 40 hours due to the so-called ‘Louid’s mistake’, said while touching his dark circles.

Amelia didn’t even look at it and spat it out indifferently.

“Send it back.”

“… Really?”

Gilbert was surprised to see Amelia, who becomes a golden retriever even when Ruid listens to him, reacting like that.

“Oh. I’m sure he’ll come back to play tricks again. Take this opportunity to hold on to her habit…… “

Peek.

By the way, only her eyes were sticking out through the crack in the slightly open door.

I think I’m secretly watching it, but Windsor is the only one in the world with such a clear view.

Amelia sighed deeply.

“I told you not to come. Let’s talk properly at home.”

Ruid quietly opened the door and came in.

“…… I came by chance while walking.”

“…… How did you come to the swordsman by chance?”

“Kuhm.”

Gilbert cleared his throat and lowered his head.

“Let’s go out.”

Gilbert left, and Amelia glared at Louis terribly. Louis sat down on her sofa, avoiding her sneaky gaze.

“You know that pocket money is prohibited, right?”

“Yes.”

‘What about money anyway?’

Ruid thought with cat-like eyes.

She doesn’t need pocket money if she uses her own magic skills to earn her money.

However, Ruid looked at Windsor with too much water.

“It looks like he thinks he can make money somehow.”

“… !”

“The Lord gave the order. Now, fix your spending habits. During that time, I was wondering if I came here too much. In other words, you too will enter the discipline of Windsor from now on.”

Louis opened her eyes wide.

“You know what? Our family rules. Windsor, who went outside, could not get any benefit other than earned income. You can’t sell what you own, and you can’t make money from investments. Of course, Ruid couldn’t manage the property he already had. Especially since you had an accident this time, you can’t even accept ‘donations’ that would normally have been allowed. I have to live only on my professor’s salary.”

“Yeah, that’s too much.”

“Is it too much? Too bad?”

Amelia jumped up from her seat.

“Is that too much?! Too much is Ruid. No matter how genius you are, if you made even the slightest mistake, everyone there could have died. Besides you Why did you lie to your sister? They said it was a gift from His Majesty, so you stole something from my arsenal!”

Ruid flinched.

Amelia caught her breath, calmed herself down, and sat down in her seat.

“Anyway, I know that. Calm down this time.”

Ruid bit his lip in a desperate situation.

‘I don’t know anything else, but I can’t live in this harsh medieval era with a professor’s salary.’

He quietly approached Amelia. Without hesitation, she hugged Amelia around the waist. He was held captive in her arms.

Amelia’s nerves stiffened all over her body.

Louise looked up at Amelia with her watery eyes.

‘Ears are cute.’

She was so cute that her saliva dried up when she acted like this even when she was still.

“I was wrong. I sincerely regret it.”

“… ….”

“So, can’t sister talk to mom well? Don’t take calls from me.”

‘Up, it’s dangerous.’

Amelia stroked Louis’ head and with her superhuman patience suppressed her desire to shout brightly, ‘Trust me only sister!’

“Huh?”

But that’s…… It was impossible even for Amelia, who had strong mental power to the point of being called the Sword Princess.

Clap.

“… ?”

But just then, I heard the sound of metal snapping.

Amelia tilted her head to her left.

… Louise was quietly closing her safe.

It was a double device, but it got stuck while trying to open only one stage.

“… What are you doing?”

Louis did not know as she rolled over.

The pitiful expression that seemed to cry at any moment had been put away.

“Kabi.”

“Hey!”

Cried Amelia.

Ruid said with a nonchalant expression.

“Honestly, Ame noona has no right to say such things. How much did I help my sister? It’s a melon.”

Then she ran hard and ran out of her room.

Amelia made an absurd expression, then her face turned red.

“Me, I’m cheap!”

Amelia thought she would take this opportunity to correct her naughty sister.

Louise was lying face down in her window seat at a dessert shop.

From noble mtl dot com

‘Apology… There’s no way it was conveyed properly.’

In fact, what she really wanted to convey to Amelia was, ‘I was wrong. I am sincerely reflecting.”

That was Ruid’s unfeigned sincerity.

But when she spit it out… I’m ashamed.

So she went off on a prank.

In the end, it only made Amelia angry.

I’ve apologized many times so far, but it’s strange.

I apologized because I was really sorry, but my mouth didn’t come out.

‘What have I been up to?’

It’s funny.

It was only when he saw Damon’s empty expression with high self-esteem that Ruid realized.

She realized that she was only living in fiction, she wasn’t living in reality.

I took it easy on my precious people and only harmed them. I’ve never seriously looked into it.

She cared about Justin, whom she thought she had no connection with, with whom she hadn’t spoken more than five words, just because she kept her episode.

She didn’t even look right in front of her, worrying about her future that wasn’t even close.

This is absurd.

Having the power to solve everything. She entrusted her own future to Justin, who was not even a Cyclop by her own standards.

She didn’t realize it until she fell over a rock root and got a bump on her forehead.

‘It’s not the contents of the original work that I should cherish, but the people around me. Let’s take a serious look at reality.’

So, Louis decided to change.

I will look at the immediate future, not the distant future.

I will live the reality.

Jump up.

Ruid raised her head.

To do that, first.

“How much do I have?”

Let’s start with the money.

Ruid turned her gold pocket inside out.

Her gold poured out.

Since most of the gold is stored in subspace, the cash is not much.

But she counted, thinking it would still be quite a bit. How much wealth do I have?

By the way—

“… 50 Gold?”

Unbelievable amount.

Ruid shook her head.

“Ah, no way.”

I started counting them one by one.

It was 50 gold.

“… ….”

Ruid denied reality and counted again.

But the gold coins did not increase.

He rested his chin on her face and made a serious expression.

50 Gold is about 500,000 won in modern times.

For reference, the price of a cake I ate at this dessert shop is 10 gold.

I wanted to eat several, so I ordered 4, and the price of black tea was about 45 gold.

Then all you have left is 5 gold… ?

“Even if we replace rice with weeds. I can’t eat snacks like this.”

Ruid felt a sense of crisis that he wouldn’t feel even if the world perished.
