The Academy’s Neglected Wizard in the Game

Episode 76 – Don’t work hard, sleep well

#One

Rumors are so scary.

In particular, rumors related to people spread at an even more frightening speed.

The medium of words is a subtle and sinister thing, and it was bound to flow in the wrong direction even after a little time.

Due to the nature of the academy, the rumors were further distorted and further distorted.

Manus.

A talented person with no doubt that he would become the best wizard, was finally about to start a revolution.

A person who challenges the stronghold of the 3rd year.

That prestige made a stir inside the academy.

“Manus. The atmosphere in the student council was not good.”

“Does not matter.”

Today, Manus also received the stinging glare of a third grader.

Before being a member of the Caesar family, he was a sophomore wizard.

From the point of view of a third year student, he is a cheeky junior.

Older people naturally dislike lower-class situations.

It’s the same for 3rd grade.

In particular, the 3rd year student council was looking at Manus dearly.

Alano let out a small sigh as he looked at Manus, who was calmly sitting on the bench reading a book.

“I don’t know about anyone else, but that senior is dangerous. know?”

“hmm.”

“Really, it’s not worth worrying about.”

“-Okay. We both already have a lot of things she doesn’t have.”

Manus looked really unconcerned.

Alano slumped beside him, staring at his handsome face.

If someone who doesn’t know sees it, it’s so blunt enough to judge that a pink atmosphere is unfolding.

Is it wrong for me to worry too much?

To ignite someone’s enthusiasm and to show hostility towards oneself.

I’ve heard of it a lot since I was young, but I wasn’t used to the emotions poured out on Alano himself.

A family called the Great Family.

On top of that, he has an outstanding appearance and outstanding talent.

‘Am I feeling burdened?’

“Hmmm-.”

Manus was conscious of his gaze and averted his eyes.

When our eyes met, it was so cute that he rolled his eyes in a hurry.

In the past, there were times when I was mistaken because of those gazes.

Take a little hope, or a tiny bit of self-esteem.

But now there were no tickling emotions left.

The things I realized in the world where I passed by many people and lived while receiving their gaze and recognition.

‘Did you make it so dull? It looks like I’m tired too.’

“Okay. We are stronger than you think.”

“-huh. If you say so.”

“The best prescription for those who speak behind the scenes is to show them in person.”

tell them to talk loudly

There were no people who cared about the real thing against such guys.

The real scary guys aren’t the ones who talk and make rumors.

Manus has lived in a place where children’s gossip is at the level of cuteness.

Power, mana, since there were no other means, I had to fight with words to bring down others.

Politics, rumors, slander… … .

Compared to the exhausting experience, this was a space where I could heal.

“It’s the third year… … . Can you win?”

“okay. If you’re feeling anxious, how about going to the tower? It would be nice to get some useful artifacts and come back.”

“Agree. I’ll have to ask my juniors. I will wake up first.”

“hmm.”

Manus looked away from her and felt signs of her moving away.

She must have had a goal of her own.

What’s left is how many things to prepare within the given time.

5 classes.

Beyond that, I turned my attention to the book containing the essence of the 6 classes.

How far did you read…

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just as I was thinking that, there was someone who entered the room.

“Whoa-.”

I didn’t read the book today.

The closed book making a dull sound spoke for his mood.

When I looked up, a blond man was coming straight ahead.

His presence is so strong, his concentration is disturbed.

“hey.”

“… … .”

Manus lifted his chin and looked at him.

Guillermo was full of dissatisfaction, with a slight wrinkle between his brows.

He pointed to one side with a sigh.

Today, I saw people sweating hard and training hard.

“I think we should do something.”

“Are you talking about training?”

“okay. You might be the strongest in the second year, but not since the third year.”

“That’s funny.”

“what?”

Fast-.

It sounded like something dangerous, but Manus didn’t care.

He pointed to the students who were training with thick books.

It’s not even funny.

is that training?

To Manus, who could see more than mana, it was just playing house.

I opened my mouth to pour out the truth.

“If you’re going to train like that, it’ll be a hundred times better for you to review the moves you made the last time you sparred with me.”

“Are you insulting the Guardians and Warriors?”

“The word insult is something that can only be said when there is a lot of pride and effort involved.”

[Interference has begun.]

Manus rose from his seat.

Let’s stay still, because I don’t like the gaze looking down.

Their eyes collided with each other.

Something inside Guillermo tried to rise, but he held it back.

A guardian is someone who protects someone, so you can’t harbor hatred for the person you’re supposed to protect.

No matter what the relationship in the past was, now I have to protect him.

Manus read Guillermo’s eyes very accurately.

It must be his job to appease him.

‘What should I say?’

There are words that are good to hear, and there are words that are spit out recklessly.

If Manus had spoken without thinking about his feelings until now, it should be a little different now.

Because he was a valuable force, and he was a talented person who would become a hero in the future.

If you stand behind him who has grown more than the original, you will be much more reassured.

decided to intervene.

Manus knew all too well the difference between ‘hard’ and ‘well’.

“listen carefully. Training is not ‘hard’, but ‘well’.”

“… … .”

“What do you get from sweating like that? health? muscular strength? How much does a body that is not pushed to its limit grow up to grow?”

Guillermo couldn’t say anything.

Who did the insult?

Were you dissatisfied with simply not doing anything?

In the midst of the confusion, words that stabbed his chest came out of Manus’ mouth.

Yes, I’m not a bad guy, but…

Because he wasn’t the one who said the wrong thing.

“If it’s just to pass the time by sweating, I won’t. Given the same amount of time, I don’t know why they don’t pay attention to more valuable things.”

“Still, shouldn’t the sum be right?”

“I’ll figure it out on my own, so do whatever you want.”

“It’s ridiculous. Does a wizard make such a statement?”

“Before being a wizard, you are a leader. 3rd year? You will realize how far-fetched the things you know are.”

Guillermo was relieved by his confident words.

He’s not doing anything.

Rather than clumsy training, I thought it was more valuable to enhance individual capabilities.

Glimpse, Guillermo read the title of Manus’s book at first glance.

Then I was shocked inside.

『Elements and Magic Theory of Class 5 and Above』

‘Monster child.’

It was a book that a normal student, no, even a tolerable Mage Tower wizard would not understand.

A book to be read by professors, even within the academy, or to be used as reference material for a dissertation.

However, Manus was in the process of understanding and studying such a book on his own.

It was only then that Guillermo realized what a monster the wizard in front of him was.

Turn your head and train… … I looked at the students doing gymnastics, which was embarrassing to say.

I had no choice but to admit it.

From Guillermo’s point of view, that was just a house play.

‘well… … I have to.’

The world that I thought I could just do my best was shattered.

If so, has everything he has done so far been in vain?

Probably not.

It was none other than Manus who stopped the growing doubts.

“You seem to have a lot of worries, but you just have to work hard.”

“Is it a talent?”

“You understand quickly.”

Guillermo nodded.

And as if he had understood, he left the place without hesitation.

try hard.

well.

The reason why talented people always see the light if they try.

It’s because others only have to work hard when they have to spend their brains and rot their headaches.

Caesar, Harrison, Berkeley did.

Other families, among others, were gifted.

‘However, talent is not infinite. At that time, you will have to find another answer.’

Manus’s eyes gleamed blue as he looked at the dependable back.

In fact, he had a point in worrying.

In fact, those who gathered the trillion won at the academy were all gathered in threes and threes to match the sum.

But why?

To Manus, it seemed that he was simply obsessed with play.

they are not guilty

It’s just people who haven’t been chosen for their talent.

‘It was the same for me.’

Swallowing the bitter past, he moved on.

So maybe that’s why I’m more reluctant.

Maybe it’s because when I look at them, I think of my insignificant self.

He moved at a rather quick pace.

The unpleasant feeling subsided calmly, as if it never happened.

Caesar’s mind is not easily moved.

Thanks to that, Manus was able to keep his cool emotions.

‘Rather, this is better.’

There is no need for a weak self.

Because it was of no use to live in the world.

#2

Alano was on his way to the reference room to prepare.

Her information power was limited to the second year.

Because 3rd grade was something the 3rd grade student council had to manage.

But now things are a little different.

A situation where you have to stick with 3rd grade right now.

In particular, didn’t they say that this evaluation was heavily sponsored by the Empire?

It will be very intense, and various accidents may occur.

“Whoa… … How could it happen like this?”

There’s no way that’s the case, but it’s essential to collect information just in case.

She decided to use the information the student council had.

There was no need to make irrational numbers.

It would be enough to know only the name and family name.

Manus and himself would be able to think of countermeasures with that level of knowledge.

When she reached the student council room, there was someone approaching her.

“Hello, Alano.”

“… … It’s Loupe.”

“that’s right. I came here for evaluation.”

Lupera approaches with a kind face.

Maybe it was because she saw his private parts that he was uncomfortable with.

Or is it because of instinctive rejection?

The face of Lupera, who was looking at her with bright eyes, seemed to be made of a very thick mask.

Alano accepted Lupera’s words, holding the corner of his mouth that was going down.

First of all, the conversation itself should be normal.

“If you don’t have Jo Won, why don’t you join me?”

“-sorry. I decided to take an evaluation with the 3rd graders.”

“what?”

This time it was Lupera’s turn to surprise.

His mask was shattered very little, very finely.

Alano didn’t miss the chance.

she calmly turned away.

It was a resolute action that earned her the nickname Ice Queen.

“I decided to look higher. with him.”

“… … .”

That was a statement that caused a lot of misunderstanding.
