The Academy’s Neglected Wizard in the Game

Episode 14 – Missing

#One

what-?

Alano stood tall and blank.

She entered the tower yesterday.

He knew that Manus had moved alone.

Could it be that something happened?

“Looks like you haven’t returned from the tower. Weren’t you together yesterday?”

“No, I said that only the three of us would go up separately and move alone. Could it be that they are trapped in the tower?”

The chairman nodded.

There have been several examples before.

“Perhaps it was. The problem is that I can’t tell if he didn’t come out voluntarily or was imprisoned voluntarily.”

“… … If so.”

-If so, how would you behave?

Alano thought, suppressing the rising worry.

He seemed to be in a hurry to do something.

If I had to move alone, there must have been a reason.

So there’s no need to be in a hurry.

-I’m still worried.

Various thoughts swirled around.

This mind, that mind fought with each other and caused conflict.

“-Wait until today, let’s do a search. hmm?”

“That would be nice. For professors… … .”

“I’ll say it’s related to the family.”

Allano nodded.

Would it be good to inform the juniors of this news?

“Tell the juniors as well. I want to make sure it doesn’t interfere with class.”

“I will. Oh, please look at this instead.”

She took out the spoils from yesterday from her bosom.

one ring.

one necklace.

and a blue gem.

The chairman looked at the spoils with shining eyes.

“It’s something from the tower. It’s an item imbued with mana… … What should I do?”

“This… … I’ll have to do an appraisal to know the details, but it must have an effect. And this stone must be a magic stone.”

“If it’s a magic stone… … .”

It was literally a stone containing mana.

The director reminded me of old memories and told me how to use it.

“Someone absorbed the mana contained in this magic stone.”

“Is it possible to increase mana artificially?”

“Perhaps. It’s only for talented people who can climb the tower, but-“

Allano’s eyes lit up.

If what he said was true, wouldn’t this be more valuable than most elixirs?

groundbreaking

But that would be a limiting and dangerous thing.

“Keep things related to magic stones a secret. If you do it wrong, a big dispute may arise.”

“yes. We will use it just for us.”

“I think this artifact will be a bit difficult to deal with… … I can’t entrust you with your appraisal right now, so I’ll cash it out and give it back to you. How about this.”

Allano nodded.

No one could do an appraisal, and there was no one at the academy who could do an appraisal right now.

One burden was relieved, and a bigger burden was taken.

It was a burden on my heart.

– Manus.

where is he and what is he doing

Alano’s depths deepened.

I also felt like I couldn’t concentrate in class.

‘Why are you making me care so much?’

In an unresponsive monologue, she briskly moved on.

It was very resentful that I didn’t have time to think deeply.

It was lamentable that I couldn’t think deeply because I thought about many things.

#2

Top – 12th floor.

Manus roamed the inside of the tower as if it were his own home.

To the deceased, the only low-level monsters were those that could be killed with a flat blow.

He swept a lot of magic stones and was absorbing them all.

It was a way to turn round and round in order to progress comfortably when deceased figures often played multiple times.

Let the character enter the tower alone and catch and kill all the monsters on all floors alone.

Mainly the main character was the main character, but from then on, the main character becomes a bus driver who takes down the enemy at an overwhelming level.

‘I don’t intend to do that, but-.’

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just like when he first decided to live in this world, he intended to do minimal intervention.

The original protagonist will do everything anyway.

He only manages to deflect too much of a threat and throws her an ordeal that will make her stronger.

by the way-.

I’ve done what was done with just a few lines of text in the game, but I didn’t expect it to be this easy.

＜Ingesting the magic stone was simple. What to eat.＞

＜It was hard when you put it in your mouth, but when warmed it turned to liquid.＞

＜Something boils! Need to take control soon

The contents processed in the game text were realized as they were.

I thought it would be distributed, but it wasn’t either.

The feeling of being filled with pure mana aroused a strange feeling of pleasure.

It’s like mental exhaustion.

“… … That’s enough.”

Chariots, Temperance, Wizards, Demons.

Having collected the four arcanas, great progress has been made.

I have to go down slowly now.

-Will the time change when we go outside?

I was curious.

At this level, it must be a level where even 3rd class magic can be performed without difficulty.

Caesar’s instinct said so.

-If you continue to grow in this state, how much more will you become a monster?

I suddenly became curious.

How strong can the character Caesar Manus become?

-He laughed and went down the tower.

#3

“… … Is it really?”

“that’s right. Veronica said it, so it must be right.”

“As for Veronica… … .”

The maid with pink hair was very famous.

Anyway, that senior Manus disappeared.

“-I didn’t see it that way… … .”

“Perhaps for some reason. It’s just letting you know. Don’t worry too much.”

“yes-.”

He said that, but the eyes of Cale and Anais shook slightly.

that manus

But he’s a human too.

Even with the three of us, we managed to climb, but no matter how strong we are, alone is a bit-.

“Kale.”

“-huh.”

A slow response was heard.

Anais looked at Alano’s back as he walked away.

She had no intention of staying still.

Wouldn’t it help to create a sense of intimacy if you could help that manus even a little?

Anais started plotting with Cale.

Then, suddenly feeling empty, I turned my head to one side.

“Doesn’t it seem somehow empty?”

“-Pearson.”

“… … ah.”

Peterson Pearson.

There is no such chatter.

Somehow, the decibels in my ears sounded empty, but he wasn’t there.

Anais asked.

“You haven’t been there since you left the dorm, right?”

“huh. Are you sick?”

is he

He was a kid who didn’t know he was sick.

He is a friend who has been rolling around in the grass since he was little, and even if he falls into the mud, he walks around the next day.

He was a friend who was superior to anyone else in terms of physical strength.

– To say he’s sick is absurd.

“For now, tonight, okay?”

“-huh.”

first friend.

of hanging out with peers.

It was more fun and new than I thought.

I didn’t want someone next to me to disappear.

＜You… … You are always alone. ＞

Someone’s words pierced my ears.

It was a word that came to my mind, but I shook my head and brushed it away.

Anais, who was sitting next to him, asked cautiously.

“Hey, are you okay?”

“Ah- yes. No big deal.”

“Your expression was very serious… … . Don’t overdo it if you’re tired. If it’s on the 1st or 2nd floor, you can go there alone.”

Cale shook his head.

I’m not going to send my friend alone.

The two got up from their seats and split into separate halves.

After all, Pearson didn’t show up for class that day.

#4

The vision was dark.

As the time difference was different, the fatigue in the tower accumulated quite quickly.

Even so, Manus ran the tower in reverse without hesitation.

It wasn’t just running backwards, but searching every nook and cranny.

“hmm-. The exact number of floors isn’t listed, so it’s a bit tiring.”

I didn’t know how many hours it was.

Maybe one more day passed?

Still, the work could not be stopped.

Around this time, there was a new party member joining.

One of the reasons I stayed in the tower was to find him.

I didn’t reveal it to anyone else, but it would be nice to pretend it was a coincidence.

– aaa!

A booming voice rang out.

How can you scream like that in the tower?

I didn’t know when I was a party member, but the talkative character doesn’t have anything.

Manus moved quickly.

[Starts to interfere.]

A translucent message appeared in front of him.

it’s interference

In the original story, Anais and Cale come to the rescue.

It was an unnecessary early scene.

An event that didn’t matter who did it, not the two of them.

In that case, I decided that it would be better to do both.

‘And, it would be nice if the talent bloomed.’

Pearson.

A male character whose popularity is hopelessly low.

However, he is a guy who is almost a fixed member of the party.

Why?

-Because he was a guy with irreplaceable performance.

Pearson’s talents weren’t barbaric (according to players) like offensive magic.

His real talent is…

“-Here you are.”

“Ughhhhh… … uh huh?”

Brown hair curled up in the corner, covered in tears and mucus.

This grumpy-looking guy is the main character’s friend position that must be used until the second half.

Manus’s cold eyes met his disfigured face.

“Eh, senior Manus?”

“Wake up.”

“Hey, where are you? No, I came here briefly last night, but suddenly the space was distorted-”

Also talked a lot.

Both Manus and the man in the original world hated this kind of person.

There is a big difference between reading the text and actually listening to it.

Kwok-.

Manus’s hand moved and pressed against the crown of his head.

He spoke again with cold eyes.

“-wake up.”

“… … yes.”

Pearson, a natural talker, automatically shut up in front of Caesar’s majesty.

Manus flicked his fingers, and all of Pearson’s unsightly foreign objects disappeared.

Pearson was distracted and didn’t even notice what the sky-like senior was doing.

“Going down.”

“that… … Will you explain?”

“… … .”

Manus did not speak.

Pearson didn’t expect much, and he followed him, raising the tension.

His back looked unusually large.

A strange feeling of relief spread through him.

I was very fortunate.

Occasionally, all the strange creatures that attacked were dealt with with Manus’ magic.

Truly, it was formidable power and speed.

‘This is what genius is.’

Standing behind him, Pearson felt both secure and shabby at the same time.

Everyone who comes to Mithos Academy dreams of success.

I couldn’t use the knowledge just by learning it.

On the Rocks continent, there lived many beings that threatened humanity.

Unraveling the knowledge learned at the academy towards them was a natural step.

at least 3 years.

How many people can’t blossom their talent even for 10 years at the longest.

“Awesome.”

“You’ll be awesome soon.”

“yes? me? no way… … I don’t think I have any special talent for magic.”

Manus erased one of the monsters blocking the stairs with a single spell.

The two chatted as they trudged down the stairs.

It was the first proper conversation.

Pearson was full of intimidation, to the point of feeling sorry for the same man.

To Manus, that pity felt pitiful.

So I added a word.

“There are many types of magic.”

“Yeah, that’s right. There are many attributes, and there are many spells… … .”

That’s not the point.

It was time to give the injection training to the guy who was talking hesitantly.

Manus cut him off.

“It means attack magic isn’t the only solution.”

“-ah.”

“Don’t be common, find something unique to you.”

Pearson nodded wordlessly.

Somehow, it seemed like a single strand of hair could be seen.

It’s not that I don’t have talent, but maybe I’m going down a completely different path.

It was the first time his mind changed.
