The Academy’s Neglected Wizard in the Game

Episode 32 – Maid Veronica

#One

Daily life at the academy went on as usual.

All of the 2nd years returned, and Alano did an excellent job with it as well.

Harrison’s mission is to subdue the undead den.

There, Alano showed off his ignorant magic skills and showed off his skills.

Changes have occurred everywhere.

Class B was gradually taken over by Melanie, and she also knew about the tower.

“The above concludes the report.”

“An investigation into an anomaly… … . Unfortunately, it will have to be postponed until later.”

“-yes?”

Chairman’s Office.

There, Veronica was reporting.

She was in charge of managing and supervising not only the dormitory but also the overall affairs of the academy.

The role of the head maid was more than expected, and nobles were in a position where they could not treat her carelessly.

The president of Nix cut off such a person’s request with a single knife.

He lifted up his glasses and explained the situation.

“You should know that the ‘Corpus’ night will soon begin.”

“Oh, it’s already time… … .”

“You have to prepare for that time. ’cause death is coming Just because it’s Mythos Academy doesn’t mean it’s safe.”

“understand. Then, let’s go.”

Veronica bowed her head.

Chairman Nicks briefly held Veronica as she was about to leave.

For a while, I forgot an important question while thinking about the night of Corpus.

This was a really important issue.

“The imperial family, there’s no movement yet, right?”

“That’s right. You don’t have to worry.”

She smiled softly and opened the door.

I thought that if I reported it to the chairman, I would get a definite answer.

Her expression wrinkled a bit.

It was quite unusual for her always smiling expression to crack.

If someone sees it, another strange rumor will circulate.

Veronica quickly looked around, managing her expression.

‘ah-.’

Far away, Manus was walking.

Would you like to see

I felt a bit pathetic about myself for worrying for nothing.

Originally, I wasn’t a person who worked in a place like this-, since when did it become like this?

Seats change people, and I wondered if my personality had become too harmful because I always lived in a peaceful place with my children.

“good morning. Confucius.”

“good morning.”

As a change of mood, I greeted him, and the same greeting came back from the other side.

Her steps stopped once more.

It was strange.

“-You seem to be in a good mood today.”

“normal.”

“It’s the first time I’ve said hello.”

Manus smiled lightly.

This huge tutorial boss is the one who fearlessly attacked Veronica, who was a pretty strong character in the world.

It’s a shame because it’s Veronica who kills her personality. Even if the time was a little off, she would have been found dead the next day.

– These days, I felt that you were interested in yourself.

Oh, of course it’s not a rational interest, but an interest in the newly changed ‘Manus’.

Manus looked straight into her eyes and opened his mouth.

“I see. pay attention to me There are so many things to think about alone.”

“Oh, you don’t have to-“

“There is no one in the academy who would ignore the head maid. then.”

Manus just said what he had to say and passed by.

However, those few words really hit Veronica.

head maid.

It has been over 10 years since I worked in that position.

When others were old enough to enter this academy, she assumed the duties of head maid here.

Countless nobles looked down on her and treated her like a maid, but they endured it.

Worst of them?

– It could definitely be called Caesar Manus.

‘Really, it seems that his personality has changed.’

It feels like someone has put their soul into it.

Could it be that he was caught up in the tricks of the black magician and suffered a forced war?

His skills were too good for that.

“I don’t know what to do with you talking so openly.”

whoop-.

Is it okay for a word to make me feel so good?

Although raised as an assassin, he did not abandon his human personality.

No, rather, I was able to rise to a higher position because I did not abandon my personality.

Emotions were an important factor even for warriors, and it was around that time that they realized that they could not rise to a level by merely training mechanically.

she is a master

– Came at a young age, but well.

It wasn’t a very good feeling.

Rather, the greetings that took place today are more impressive.

The existence of a master to her was just that much.

#2

Entering the chairman’s office, Manus briefly summarized and reported what had happened yesterday.

New powers, and treatment for Libby.

The situation went smoothly until the tower’s investigation.

Director Nix nodded with a satisfied face.

There was an unfortunate incident, but rather, it became like an increase in power.

The Lauer family will eventually walk the path of downfall.

“You did a good job. You also performed a diamond-level mission this time, right? Congratulations.”

“no. That night will come now.”

“That’s right. We are doing everything we can to protect our students.”

[Night of Corpus].

Commonly known as the Festival of the Dead.

It is the only event where you have to protect something, and it is the most avoided time in all continents.

The festival night that came back after 21 years overlapped just at this time.

An event in which the dead of the continent rise up at once and pour out their resentment toward the living.

It is a setting that after pouring out like that, it becomes quiet as if it was like when.

It is said that the god of death arranged it to increase his people… … .

‘Damn it, it’s just because tower defense was popular at the time.’

Random blah defense.

It was a pretty popular game at the time.

It was a defense game based on various cartoons, and the developer must have been impressed with it.

It was purely a forced setup, but if you look at the content inside the event, it was drawn pretty well.

A story that was evaluated that it would have been nice to push forward as a defense game rather than climbing the tower.

It was also a time when the world view began to darken in earnest.

“You will have to prepare a little more thoroughly.”

“Mythos Academy is a place that even the imperial army of the empire cannot break through. No need to worry.”

Manus thought how to explain this.

It’s not something you just have to endure for a few days.

Because it would be a disaster for Mythos Academy.

Simply saying that you know the future is insufficient.

At least they should have some level of awareness.

Yes, there was a way.

“It is also a revelation from the Caesar family. They said this night would be awful.”

“… … At Caesar?”

Manus nodded without speaking.

You can borrow the name of the all-around cheat key Caesar.

His father is a man who has perfectly mastered 7th class magic, which is an outsider’s level.

Even if his sh*t is made of mana, there are many people who will believe it.

It means that even if you look around, you will believe it.

“I thought you hated being associated with the family… … . Got it. Be careful.”

“Then, let’s go.”

“Did student Melanie say she would join the exploration?”

“-He has a very good mindset.”

Nicks smiled contentedly.

Come to think of it, you said you wanted to take the 3rd grade class together?

I also thought that Caesar’s lineage was different.

The door is closed.

Manus headed to the third grade classroom.

Today was the day of taking the 3rd grade class, not the 2nd grade class.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

The pleasure of study that I had never thought of before.

Every time I saw myself gradually adapting to this world, I felt like a real Manus.

“Manus students?”

“… … hello.”

A familiar face recognized him.

Professor of elemental science, Trail.

He strode towards Manus.

The eyes resembling blue lakes pulled out the Duke of Laves, which he had been looking at from a distance in the past.

This bright student is now ready to soar in earnest.

Then, as a teacher at Mythos Academy, there is only one thing to do.

“Are you taking my class today? If it’s the magic skills you showed before, you’ll have no problem following me.”

“thank you.”

This student seems to have strangely changed his personality-?

It’s a positive direction, so you don’t have to worry about it.

Trail wondered how far this student would go.

Beating those outstanding brothers/sisters, maybe… … .

“The third year class is a time to learn advanced magic in earnest. Oh and, a new student is taking class today.”

Manus walked proudly and stood next to Professor Trail.

The eyes of the 3rd grade students widened.

They all looked at him with similar expressions.

“This is Caesar Manus. Please take good care of me.”

“and-. Are we seniors?”

“But do you like it?”

“I heard you also used class 4 magic this time? Then what… … , I admit it.”

Someone raised their hand.

The professor gave him permission to speak with a look in his eyes.

The biggest issue for academy students is their grades.

It was an incident in which a competitor, and a great fellow named Caesar, intervened.

– Of course, the issues that need to be pointed out should be made clear.

“Isn’t that reflected in the grades?”

“That’s right. Grades are based on the sophomore year. You can rest assured.”

Oh oh-.

The students admired it lowly.

Yeah, that’s normal.

No one, even in his third year, dared to compete with Caesar’s talent.

A guest who just came to indulge in knowledge.

A hero of insanely enviable talent.

Manus’ position was just that.

“Let’s start class. Please sit where you are comfortable, Manus.”

Numerous eyes were fixed on Manus as he trudged along.

Curiosity, envy, some vigilance, and so on.

‘It’s still burdensome.’

I looked at them with Manus’ eyes, but deep inside I felt a burden.

It must be felt by the fundamental self that cannot be abandoned.

Manus sat down and looked around.

‘There are no characters from the original work here, so I can take the class comfortably.’

You don’t have to interfere, and it’s time to acquire knowledge.

He took a proper class after a long time.

Professor Trail’s 3rd grade class was different from its quality.

What should I pay attention to when constructing a magic circle?

How to efficiently build that magic circle?

How did those who use 4th class or higher level magic use it?

“We analyzed the techniques used by actual wizards. I also shared quite a few interviews with them, but the data are still lacking.”

Classes taught by passionate Professor Trail.

This became a stepping stone for Manus to advance to a new stage before the night of madness came.

His mind was filled with new knowledge.

‘It’s fun.’

It was only after he came here that Manus became engrossed in his studies.

As if to make up for the wasted time of the past, his hands and head did not stop.
