48 – Open Class (3)

Static.

The entire test site of Selenium Academy was enveloped in silence.

Just a moment ago, the students who were talking while watching other students solve their assignments, and the open class observers who were watching the students solving their assignments were full of chatter.

Everybody couldn’t open their mouths anymore because of what happened at the test site where the 10th group, or the last group, was entered.

Because I couldn’t understand what was happening right in front of my eyes. It was transmitted to the brain through vision, but the brain did not understand this fact.

No one said anything hastily or moved easily.

The long silence that seemed like it would never end.

“Open the door. Open the door quickly.”

“Open this door now!”

It wasn’t until I heard the voices of Tinia Elander and Philip Edgar, who were in the same testing room, that they were almost screaming, and then they were smashed.

“······Rescue immediately.”

The headmaster of Lapis gave an order to open the door and rescue him.

The student who was rescued was carried out of the test site on a stretcher with blood on his head.

Tinia, Philip, and Philip’s senior mentor, who were on the same team, followed him.

Seeing the gruesome scene, people realized only after the other professors at the academy started moving the onlookers.

This is a real situation, not an illusion.

That crazy Young master.

He’s dying now.

***

Health room of Selenium Academy.

It was always a quiet place because of the patients.

“Why did you do that?”

“····.”

“Why the hell. Why did you use magic on junior Lian?”

The cold voice of a girl who saw her junior getting hurt right in front of her eyes rang out.

The girl’s cold voice was directed to Jo Won, Philip Edgar, with whom she had been working on an assignment in the same exam hall until just now.

Philip Edgar was just listening to Tinia like a prisoner accepting a sentence.

“······It wasn’t intentional…”

“Yes. Just as you said, let’s say I made a mistake in aiming the magic.”

Magic is a job with a lot of mistakes.

Even higher circle mages make quite a few mistakes, and sometimes they lead to major accidents.

Even if the teleportation magic fails and you are moved to a strange place. Or that the magic coordinates were miscalculated and a lot of people were harmed.

Tinia Elander knew that too.

It is the science of magic that even skilled wizards make mistakes.

Since she had always emphasized it for two years at Selenium Academy, it was imprinted in her brain.

Even with that fact.

Tinia did not understand the current situation.

“······Why didn’t you just yell at me to dodge?”

“Tinia.”

Although she was stopped by her mentor Philip Edgar, a student she also knew, raised her hand as if telling her to stop.

“Why didn’t you shout?”

Tinia didn’t stop shooting at Philip.

She didn’t understand Philip’s behavior.

Why did that guy send his magic towards Lian?

Even if it was a mistake, why didn’t they tell me to avoid it?

Why is her junior, who should be happy to have cleared the assignment and received a good score, collapsed on the bed and not saying anything?

···· Why did her juniors be able to avoid enough to avoid the magic as if they were invisible.

I didn’t understand at all.

This whole situation was beyond her common sense.

Philippe urged an answer.

“Why did you do that?”

“····.”

“Why didn’t you tell me!”

“Me too!”

And Philip, who was only listening to Tinia’s words, shouted.

“····.”

“I… I didn’t know it would turn out like this…”

The voice was full of resentment and regret.

Philip Edgar hates Lian Kindred.

For Philip, a person named Lian is a traitor who betrayed him.

He thought of Lian Kindred as a friend. Because Ryan Kindred unilaterally cut off ties with him.

If you ask me if he also sees Rihanna as her tool only. I was able to nod her head saying that half of it was true.

When he first met him, he thought of Lian’s usefulness as nothing more than a tool to help him with his stupidity.

But time passed. For Philip, the person Lian Kindred has changed little by little.

A tool that listens well, a guy who can talk quite a bit unlike other stupid youngsiks, a guy who can be called a friend.

Although he didn’t speak directly to Lian, Philip thought of Lian as a ‘friend’.

– You only thought of me as a tool anyway, didn’t you?

Until Lian unilaterally cut off her relationship with Philip.

At first, I was dumbfounded.

It’s like the guy who did crazy things with them just a while ago suddenly declared a stop loss.

After some time had passed, Philip was able to admit it.

Ryan Kindred is no longer his friend.

The guy he thought he was a friend for a while actually said he wasn’t.

That’s why I was framed for going to Changgwan.

He didn’t want Lian, who betrayed him, to live well.

And that thought.

It has completely changed since a nightmare.

A nightmare in which his friend Lian dies in a remote place in Count Kindred’s family.

Philip also had the same nightmares that Countess Kindred and Lyanna Kindred had.

After waking up from a nightmare. Philip regretted it.

I didn’t want Lian Kindred to suffer this much when he spread the rumor.

Because he only thought of a certain amount of embarrassment and damage to the extent that he could not do well in external activities.

It was a childish idea. It was such a stupid idea.

I could have thought that this was just a dream.

But it was too vivid to be a dream, and it could actually happen.

Philippe regretted it.

He wanted to pick up the rumors he had spread, even belatedly.

But time has already passed too much.

A horse without feet can travel a thousand miles. Rumors that had already begun to spread continued to spread without stopping.

It’s a well-known fact that nobles like to talk about other people.

Especially if it’s a bad rumor.

Now, any aristocrat in the Empire would know that Lian Kindred was an idiot.

Because of the rumors he spread.

Philippe couldn’t even apologize.

Because he was a coward who didn’t even have the courage to apologize first.

Because he was such a coward that he couldn’t even admit to the rumor he had spread.

So just be cowardly.

I was cowardly and thought that I would never have anything to do with Lian anymore, so I didn’t do anything.

He also knew that this was cowardly and nasty.

But he is a coward by nature. Because he was a nasty guy from the beginning.

I didn’t go to Lian Kindred after trying so hard to overcome my spirit.

But is it a joke of the goddess of fate?

At the academy he entered, he was in the same class as Lian Kindred.

In open class assignments, he was paired with Lian Kindred.

He was uncomfortable with this situation to the point where he thought that it would have been better to be in the same group as the commoners he hated and loathed so much.

“······Just take care of yourself.”

That’s why he left the words to take care of yourself without any meeting.

As for the relationship between him and Lian, these words were the best.

I didn’t need to say anything more to those who weren’t friends anymore.

And then an accident occurred.

The last powerful magic he chanted to finish off the phantom monsters was directed towards Lian Kindred.

Still, he didn’t say much.

The aim of the magic was slightly wrong, but it was heading straight toward the target monster anyway.

It was a distance that could be avoided if you just looked at it with your eyes and slightly avoided it.

If Lian Kindred hid slightly and the magic landed on the monster properly, it was clear that their group of 10 would receive a nearly perfect score.

However, his expectations were completely wrong.

Lian Kindred couldn’t escape his magic.

As if he couldn’t see, he didn’t even realize that the magic was pointing at him.

“Brother Ryan!”

It seemed like he only noticed it belatedly after he heard Ryan’s senior mentor shouting.

– Quaang!

By that time it was already too late.

“I also… I knew that this guy would of course avoid it…”

“····.”

As if Tinia was sincerely regretting it, she could no longer shoot at the weeping Philip.

Even in her opinion, Philip’s last magic was enough to be avoided.

It’s just that this situation was unfair.

It was unfair that the only person she could take her anger out on was the now weeping Philip Edgar.

“Why is it that only our juniors… Are only our juniors going through this?”

Last time in the woods, her junior got out and fell down.

This time, though it wasn’t intentional, he was knocked down by the magic of the same crew.

Why did only her juniors have to go through this?

The sky was resentful.

Druck-!

With the sound of the door opening urgently, another guest arrived at the health room.

“······Lian?”

From noble mtl dot com

“······Mr.”

5 Groups of Adele and Stella seem to have just come running after finishing their assignments at the test site.

“Student Lian. Is Lian ok?”

“For now…”

As soon as they arrive, Principal Lapis asks the school nurse about Lian’s condition.

“Lian…?”

“Brother…?”

And even the people who appear to be Ryan’s family.

All the people who had to hear the truth of this case gathered.

“Why couldn’t you avoid that magic?”

She deserved to hear the truth from her juniors.

“····.”

Principal Lapis, who received the question, seemed to be wondering if he could say this.

“Haa…”

Receiving attention from not only Tinia but everyone else here, she sighed and began to speak as if she couldn’t help it.

“······Student Lian Kindred… Is currently completely blind.”

“·······Yes?”

“······What?”

The truth that I hoped for, but hoped it wasn’t.

Her junior, Lian Kindred, was blind.
