Episode 26 – Talent found at the end of jealousy (1)

#One

Manus arrived at the library.

There was no other place to spend time until nightfall.

countless books.

Letters, formulas, the smell of paper.

Isn’t it said that a library is a repository of knowledge?

Even in Manus’s eyes, that statement did not look wrong.

A tower of stacked knowledge bound together in the form of letters.

The library was such a place.

‘Once upon a time, I lived by building a wall with books. How can one mindset make such a difference?’

Time continues to flow.

In the past, I lived without knowing how scary it was.

Days spent without meaning.

The roads I had to return to without income were pictured in my head.

[Wizard’s mindset – 68 days, XX hours]

[Attack Skills – 17 Days]

‘It’s running well.’

Now, to Manus, time without meaning does not exist.

Being an idle talent greatly improved the quality of time.

Visible growth became the driving force of life, and the seemingly endless world always urged him.

On the first day, when I woke up in my room, I had already read the book I opened several times.

Several times to try harder books.

Manus, a sophomore, was already looking for materials that alumni and professors would read.

“hmm-.”

The new skill to be learned this time is [Attack knowledge].

It was a very simple skill of +30% basic attack power.

And it was a powerful skill.

30% additional damage without asking or questioning.

No conditions were required, and it did not cost more mana.

This ignorant and tremendous skill was obviously not a skill that players could learn.

‘This was the skill the second Demonium had.’

A boss often referred to as a newbie cutter.

It was one of the passive skills of the boss that appears in the second full moon.

The skills and skills of the boss found out through data mining.

It was a game that was overflowing with strategies based on it.

Manus was able to search and learn not only the playable characters, but also the skills of bosses, demons, and NPCs.

The knowledge of this attack was one of the skills that must be learned.

“Now, let’s start learning the 5th class magic.”

Small-brained, he scrutinized the high-end magic books.

It went into the innermost part, where students could not easily reach.

As if they were managing with magic, the books were clean without a speck of dust.

<5 Class Magic Theory>

– Caesar Ufron –

Ufron.

Probably one of Caesar’s ancestors.

I picked up the book naturally.

How about a book written from Caesar’s point of view?

He lost track of time and was absorbed in books.

As the day drew to a close, not only Manus’s time passed, but the others’ time too.

Each of them had their own thoughts and reached the crossroads of choice.

“This is where the Levelly-Malito kids gather, right?”

“-what are you?”

Bauer Libby visited the Black Eagle class.

Unlike Bamban, where the aristocrats hold the power, the vested interests of the Eagles were the executives of Revelly-Malito.

Although a noble, Libby, who lived a life like a commoner, visited them without hesitation.

“hi? I heard you guys are so good at fighting?”

“… … First of all, it’s because I’m an aspiring knight. what’s the matter? In Bamban.”

“I’m going to do a request, how is it?”

request?

Officer: Castro slightly frowned.

It was really rare for wizards to come all this way and ask for a request.

It was because we didn’t really care about each other like cows and chickens.

But a sudden request?

There must be a reason why I came all the way here, so I decided to listen.

“It’s a request from a proud nobleman… … . ok let’s hear it What is it?”

“You know the Harry family, right?”

“Of course you know. Who doesn’t know that notorious merchant aristocrat.”

Merchants were also closely related to the common people.

Everything comes from money.

Everything in life costs money.

The Harry family was, in a sense, far more famous than most noble families.

His vicious and cold-hearted business skills were to the point where he was even nicknamed a money-grubbing wizard.

Could it be that you had something to do with that family?

-Are you having fun with this?

“I want to trouble the daughter of that family.”

“According to rumors, there is a connection with that Caesar Manus-senpai-”

“What do you know? Isn’t it enough to just avoid ‘direct’ violence?”

Libby let out a bitter laugh.

What are they up to?

Where, I decided to listen to the thoughts of a smart aristocrat.

Touching a merchant is a pretty dangerous thing.

Retaliation between families is strictly prohibited, but depending on how money is distributed, direct or indirect damage could be inflicted.

“Simple. We just call her out at night and lock her up for a day.”

“What, it’s just a kid’s joke.”

“Right, kidding. It’s just that I’m in a bad mood… to play a joke Isn’t that good enough? Just in case, someone made it like a prince on a white horse! I will show up and save you.”

“I have no intention of adapting to that prank. what… … Some of our children may have a grudge against the Harry family.”

Libby nodded.

The Harry family has many enemies.

You can’t get caught harassing them yourself, so you just have to prank them appropriately.

Libby wanted to tease her unobtrusively.

If you can feel even the slightest bit of the pain you’re going through…

This sense of shame and helplessness.

The pressure of grades that tightens to the point of being terrible.

‘You have to feel this fear too.’

Castro looked into her eyes and had a hunch that something interesting was about to happen.

Those hateful eyes reminded me of someone who had been robbed of all his possessions and shot before dying of evil.

“Is this because it’s tonight? okay. Where can I go?”

“If possible, let’s make it a club room.”

“good. Since it’s a ‘prank’, there’s no need for anything in return, can you bring me some information once in a while?”

That’s about it.

Libby nodded happily.

Class B is also high.

The Kong line is also high.

Libby was sociable and had many friends.

If we deliver information about Bamban to Revelly-Malito, we will be able to reach out to the wizard as well.

If that’s the case, maybe we can use that power a little bit.

And I was going to be recognized for my skills, go to class A and join the student council.

‘I can do it.’

I believed I could do it.

no, you have to do that

Because I risked everything for my family to come here.

#2

After a long time, Melanie was having a really happy time.

club room.

On the subject of simply being a fellowship club, it is a club with only three students from Class A and the second-year senior and second-class students.

Could he, who is only the Harry family, come in here?

“So I was hiding in the carriage of the knight’s family and went unnoticed for three days? That stinky smell, dirty swear words, very-”

Melanie was captured by Pearson and kept listening to his story.

He talked a lot, but did he have a charm that strangely made him fall in love?

His bouncy charm made me listen to Pearson’s words without knowing.

Of course, only if you have a lot of time -.

Melanie enjoyed interacting with them while drinking hot tea.

For some reason, even the spirits who were so noisy didn’t say a word after coming here.

How long has it been since you heard only a human voice? I never thought it would be so peaceful…

“Hey, what kind of magic do you use?”

Anais sat down beside him and asked.

It’s the magic he’s most confident in.

I was about to say that I could communicate with the spirits for a moment, but I shook my head inwardly.

She had a good support line.

To lower an enemy’s stats and weaken them.

It was the preferred method of fighting to slowly hold the enemy’s breath like that.

– So said.

“I prefer weakening or strengthening magic to direct combat.”

“Oh- just like me! I’m also not good at offensive magic, so I really didn’t know that my talent was around A class.”

“Be quiet. so? Would you like to go practice?”

“Is that okay?”

Anais smiled brightly.

It seemed like I could understand it just by sharing a few words of conversation.

A timid friend feels burdened by active and active people.

However, there is no need for a timid person to adjust.

Melanie sensed from Anais a kindness that shone in liveliness.

A friend who takes the initiative in talking, matching, and helping you laugh together.

– I wanted to make friends like this.

“then! Originally, we were training and playing together. There will be something we can look out for.”

“Yeah, thank you.”

Melanie laughed bashfully.

Looking at a lot of people, I was able to infer someone’s personality just by looking at them and speaking.

From a young age, the experience of looking over the shoulder of the numerous customers of the family came to life.

okay,

I think I can trust these friends.

She smiled slightly.

“let’s go. to practice.”

Cale, who was still, stood up.

Anais was next to Melanie, and Pearson was talking about his ability.

If this time goes on and on…

‘With these friends, I really… … .’

After graduating from this school, I felt that I wanted to be together until I stood tall as a wizard.

It’s still the first time I’ve seen it, and I don’t know what else will happen.

Because only God can know the future.

Still, I didn’t want to lose this happiness, this warmth.

It was the peace that had come to her after a long time, and she was the only friend who treated her openly.

It was my wish that they would not change in the future.

‘Because I’ll be a good friend too.’

At least in this academy, they were friends I wanted to be with until the end.

#3

After a proud day, Melanie returned to her dormitory.

Today, if it ended like this, I thought I would be happiest.

Days like this don’t come every day.

Lie down on the bed and reflect on what happened today.

I saw spirits floating around, but even that looked cute.

-It was fun?

– I was scared.

-that’s right! scared! scared!

The spirits laughed and chattered.

Are you scared?

Who says it’s scary?

Melanie laughed and enjoyed the languor.

-smart.

A knock was heard.

Oh, I don’t want to wake up.

Still, it was not polite to leave the guests standing.

At times like this, my father’s words came to mind.

<There is nothing more stupid than leaving guests standing.>

So I got up.

Melanie got up and opened the door.

When the door opened, a strange face stood there.

“… … who?”

“hi?”

what’s going on-

You’re not coming to harm me again, are you?

Melanie looked at the unknown woman with a hard face.

She mentioned Libby by name.

“Libby said she wanted to apologize for a second?”

“apologize?”

“Yeah, he says he’s been acting so badly. I’m waiting for you on the first floor.”

Is it real?

No, Libby is not like that.

How could such hateful eyes change in an instant?

that you know best

More than anyone else, I watched a lot of people like that from my father’s side.

Melanie’s lips parted.

“… … it’s you.”

“huh?”

“No. I’m here to apologize.”

“… … .”

The face of the unknown student hardened.

Could it be that he was such a suspicious child?

“Can’t you believe your friend? I’m here to apologize Trust me just once.”

“Really?”

“okay. He said he’s waiting outside for you to come out? In the dormitory, they say they are embarrassed that someone will listen.”

Melanie quietly shook her head.

The nameless girl spoke again.

“Then I’ll just tell you. Yes, this is Mythos Academy. I think it’s right to put the family affairs aside for a while, so please tell me that’s the case.”

“… … .”

“I’m sure you’re not from a merchant’s family. You’re colder than you look, aren’t you?”

That broke Melanie’s heart.

it’s not

only once.

Shall we believe just once?

The thought of wanting to destroy the values they were talking about made her move.

-but.

“-uh?”

“phew… … It is difficult to act.”

‘why… … like this… … .’

My eyes closed.

I tried to force myself to get up, but my body wouldn’t move on its own.

Her peace has yet to come.

Her vision was completely blacked out, causing her to collapse.
