Episode 54 – The Learner

#One

Conflicts exist between people.

There are many causes of conflict, and there are many ways to resolve them.

A normal intellectual would solve the conversation or live with that problem forever.

Manus also felt that dialogue was essential.

Caesar.

The person himself was aware of his blunt and unemotional personality.

‘It was more delicate than I thought.’

Anais was a bold, daring, and courageous child.

It was portrayed that way in the game, and there was no depiction of her struggling alone.

To think that he would intervene and change his mind.

“Can I go in here?”

“okay.”

Cale and Manus stood in front of the secret room.

Before entering, Manus had an idea for interference compensation.

It was a pretty amazing story.

[Interference confirmed.]

[The acquisition time of Floyce’s attitude is reduced by half.]

That was a very big clue.

Flois is the family to which Anais belongs.

It was a family with a personality that burned brightly like the sun and was passionate like a flame.

Skills that are all focused on aggressive tendencies.

If I interfere with the other person, will that skill decrease?

I couldn’t figure out the standard at all.

‘It’s still early days… … Let’s think about it leisurely.’

A lot of time passed.

If a little more samples are gathered, there will be a clear standard, and a course of action can be clearly set.

The ending, the story beyond that will be even tougher.

I made up my mind and went to meet Black and White with Cale.

“-This is it.”

“You can make and learn various things here.”

“cool. Why didn’t I know about this place?”

Because it’s a hidden place.

Instead of taking the obvious, Manus stepped forward.

Two people who are still playing boring, boring poker.

White gets angry, Black laughs and fights back.

“I have brought guests.”

“Oh- are you here?”

“Why don’t you play some other game other than poker once in a while?”

I asked out of pure curiosity.

The two met each other’s eyes and spoke softly.

“There is nothing I can do.”

“I don’t know of any games.”

ah-.

Manus realized a big fact.

Come to think of it, I skipped this part inadvertently.

When playing the game as a player, black and white were just NPCs for skills/items.

I wasn’t interested in their circumstances or details.

The man before Manus had such a personality.

They don’t pay attention to their surroundings and only do what is necessary.

“I should buy you a present next time.”

Even in this world, board games such as chess and Othello are overflowing.

here is reality.

Each of them had their own story.

“Oh yeah? Then shall we make a simple deal?”

“Tell me.”

said White.

She raised a finger and said.

He made a suggestion that was quite tempting.

“I will teach you one magic for every game you teach me. how is it?”

“great.”

“Come to think of it, I’ve been waiting for guests for a long time. this one?”

After finishing everything he had to say, White looked back at Cale.

Yet, her attention lingered on Manus much longer.

That’s nice, but Cale should be treated equally.

I pondered for a while.

What should I say to make them pay attention to Cale?

what should i just run

“He is my most cherished junior.”

“-yes?”

“surely… … .”

Cale opened his eyes and looked up.

As if he was indifferent, his gaze looking down at her was filled with emotions that were very different from before.

It is said that the pupil itself becomes soft.

It was something I heard from someone one day, but I couldn’t understand it.

Cale was finally able to understand what he was saying.

Emotions in cold blue eyes.

It was definitely something warm.

“A junior you cherish? Are the two of you nerdy?”

“white. please-.”

“Ah, I know! No matter how I look at it, I don’t see him as contemplating something like dating.”

White looked at Manus’ expressionless face and said.

At her words, Cale also returned his expression to normal.

No, it would not be an illusion to look a little pouty.

Cale knew it too.

What Manus said was simply lip service to divert attention this way.

still-.

‘no. It’s different from me.’

Whoa-.

I closed my eyes and made up my mind.

Returning to her calm expression, she listened to Manus in silence.

“I’m here to get the magic stone money I didn’t get earlier.”

“To him? What are you going to teach me?”

“Plamma. Please let this child know too.”

“Okay, it’s not difficult. That alone has a little more left, so I’ll give you this as a service.”

White waved his hand in the air.

Then a small marble appeared.

It had VIII written in Roman numerals.

It was the eighth arcana, an orb filled with power.

“Do you need this?”

“thank you.”

Manus took out Orca’s necklace, took the marble and broke it.

The sixth pattern has been filled.

half now.

Of the thirteen empty spaces, six were illuminated.

“Honey, shall we study slowly? Come here.”

White led Cale.

Manus watched her learn magic.

Meanwhile, Black approached Manus.

He looked closely at Orca’s necklace and opened his mouth.

This, you will definitely need to know the knowledge.

“Originally there are twenty-one arcana. But why are there only thirteen in this Orca’s necklace?”

“Fate, Reaper, Star, Moon, Sun, Judgment, World.”

“-You seem to know.”

Manus nodded slightly.

Orca’s necklace was made by humans and was handled by humans.

Black looked at Orca’s necklace, then at Manus again.

An artifact left behind by something that has outlived them.

Even though it was obviously a dangerous item, I thought for some reason that Manus would be able to handle it well.

This is mankind’s greatest talent.

“If you can’t handle it, others won’t be able to handle it either. so… … .”

“I know. There will be no getting eaten.”

Black nodded.

He saw determination and infinite possibilities in Manus’ eyes.

Black’s eyes were quite special.

“Then, I wish you well in the future. Magic stones are one of the items we need to live.”

“I really wish you well.”

After saying that, Manus turned his gaze again.

Cale was learning Plamma easily.

[Interference has begun.]

Another visible message.

Who did you interfere with, and for what? … .

This sentence, which amplifies my curiosity, added more worth while living in this world.

Beyond the disappearing message, Manus saw the brilliant magic circle shining brighter than ever.

As expected, Cale was overflowing with talent.

If you lead her on the right path, you will be able to save the world.

#2

We safely attacked the tower and cleared up the accumulated misunderstandings.

He also taught Cale various tactics.

Now she can give orders to her colleagues more effectively.

Anais seemed to have calmed down, and she greeted him again with a cheerful and bright face.

Now, Manus himself would smile a little and accept the greeting.

The weekend has passed.

Today Manus was a day of important business.

“- I want to go with you too.”

“What about the head maid?”

“You can just take it over to someone else.”

Were you originally like this?

A beautiful woman in a maid outfit, with her dark hair neatly arranged, was uncharacteristically stubborn.

Originally, it must have been her personality to be obedient and not squeamish.

So, Manus asked calmly what the reason was.

“Why do you want to go with me?”

“Because that is my home now.”

“… … Who is the chairman?”

Aden smiled.

Her laugh contained so much.

Yes, we should have seen each other someday.

“Pack your bags.”

It was decided to accompany her.

Aden smiled brightly and disappeared with quick steps.

Now it was my turn to report.

I left the dormitory to stop by Professor Trail, the 2nd year general professor.

No small luggage needed.

It was an era where you could reach your house with just one teleport magic circle.

“-Hmm, absenteeism for an assignment… … . All right.”

“How can I do my assignments and homework?”

“There is no need to do homework. It overlaps with the evaluation preparation period, but we will replace it with mission evaluation.”

Indeed, it was a reasonable response.

Professor Trail looked at Manus proudly.

It was rare for the family to find a student again.

Rather than solving their problems, accumulating knowledge at the academy is a more valuable time spent.

However, with Caesar, the story is different.

“I will be back as soon as possible.”

“You can come slowly. I will deliver the contents of the class to the Alano students.”

Manus lightly bowed his head.

Now that you’ve finished watching, all you have to do is leave.

As he was about to turn, Professor Trail checked the papers on his desk and summoned Manus to stand.

“Oh. Professor Shandler is preparing the familiar summoning ritual. It wouldn’t be bad to summon a familiar and go.”

“All right.”

“Professor is in the auditorium right now, go.”

Do not work… … .

If you can pull it out at the very beginning of the game, it was a huge advantage.

A trait that was ignored due to one restriction that it could only be summoned in the 3rd year.

The time has come to make full use of that characteristic.

If you raise it now, the story will be different.

-clearly.

“I am ready.”

“I go to the auditorium for a while. Please wait first.”

“All right.”

Rumors were slowly spreading that Aden was very close to the Caesar family.

After Veronica died, the Caesar family even said that it was to protect my son.

She had it all laid out, but Manus didn’t really care.

The busy maids were just saying hello, not sending suspicious glances.

It was an environment where I could feel how good Aden’s skills were once again.

After walking for a while, I entered the auditorium where Professor Shandler was waiting.

“Oh, you’ve come just in time. Whoops.”

“hello.”

“welcome. Coincidentally, the Alano students also came to perform the summoning ceremony.”

Alano greeted him with a smile.

Yes, Alano has also come to terms with dealing with his familiar.

If both of them can tame and raise their familiars, it will become a tremendous force indeed.

It was a fairly satisfying reward, and it would be a better reinforcement in battles with demons.

Because someday, when the time comes for my familiar to perform at its best, it will surprise everyone.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve been excited.’

Half the excitement of the drawing system, half the excitement of getting a new pet.

Manus waited for Professor Shandler to speak.

Eventually, the long-awaited time arrived.
