039. A spring date? (2)

“Ethan… . I have decided to be loyal to the Lognes family.”

“What does loyalty have to do with a blind date?”

Ethan was still focused on the steak.

‘I want to hurry up and connect Vivian and Arthur.’

According to the original story, the two even get married.

As soon as they met, they were strongly attracted to each other.

So if you stick the two together, everything will be fine. Although there is one thing that bothers me.

“Anyway… , The feeling of dating might get in the way of my work.”

Only then did Ethan’s hand stop.

This may be a more serious occupational disease than you think.

“Did Sepia forbid Vivian from dating?”

“no. I’m saying this because you might be misunderstood. This is my choice anyway.”

“A hero saves the world. Knights protect the country. Servants are loyal to the family.”

Ethan said in a monotonous tone.

That was the basic conventional wisdom of the empire.

“… … Yes. So, I intend to be loyal to Lady Sepia.”

“This is just my opinion. If you have a lover, wouldn’t you be able to protect someone better?”

drooling.

Ethan got up from his seat.

“If you change your mind, please contact me.”

Leaving those words behind, Ethan naturally left. Vivian blankly followed Ethan’s back. I never thought of catching it.

smart.

It wasn’t until late at night that Vivian found Sepia.

Sepia was quietly enjoying tea time hugging a teddy bear.

“Uh, how was it?”

Sepia’s eyes were shaking as if she was nervous.

Vivian smiled slightly.

“I was rejected.”

“yes? You were rejected?”

“Yes, he asked me if I would like to go on a blind date.”

Vivian solved the incident with Ethan one by one.

Hope bloomed in Sepia’s nervous eyes.

At first, Vivian wondered if Ethan was so indifferent that she was unattractive to the opposite s*x.

But in retrospect, that wasn’t the case.

Even while walking down the street with Edan, other people’s eyes naturally followed him.

To that extent, Vivien also had a charm that drew attention from others.

“Trying to go on a blind date… .”

“It was blocked beforehand. Ethan drew a line on me.”

“So you like me?”

“Yes, I think so. Because he likes the lady, he avoids things that might get into trouble for everyone because I like him.”

Sepia was drunk as if she had been hit with mulberry.

The cheeks of the fluttering sepia turned red.

“OMG! what should we do! it’s crazy! it’s crazy.”

I felt like I was about to lose my mind.

If he was hit with mulberry, he would feel dizzy as if he had already passed the lethal dose.

Sepia walked around the room.

‘Vivian was also quite beautiful. Not as much as me.’

There were even male servants in the Lognes family who had their eyes on Vivian.

That’s how popular Vivian was.

Despite Vivian’s temptation, Ethan did not budge like a wooden stone.

“what should we do! I misunderstood it on my own and made a strange trick behind the scenes! Besides, Ethan didn’t notice that.”

Sepia had already listened to what was recorded with Vivian’s crystal ball. There, Ethan asked if Sepia wrote the screenplay. It meant he knew everything.

“What if you hate me for doing weird things behind the scenes? What if you think I’m a real villainess?”

“That won’t be it. Or maybe Ethan wouldn’t have asked me if I was going on a blind date.”

Besides, if it was a love that would be extinguished by such a thing, he would not have hidden his amnesia from the young lady.

“Oh, is that so? what should we do. I recklessly doubted Ethan’s heart. This is all because of my shallow faith.”

It was as if he had even been discovered that he cared about Ethan that much.

“But, lady, aren’t you happy? It’s because Ethan wasn’t swayed by someone’s temptation.”

“… i love it.”

I replied with the sound of Bolmen.

I felt like I was going to go crazy.

Sepia buried her head in the bed pillowcase.

Vivian happily watched Sepia as if she were her mother.

“If you’re sorry, why don’t you go and apologize to Ethan?”

“apologize? What, what should I apologize for?”

“Sorry for doubting… .”

“no. can not. can’t even die never.”

Sepia, wearing a pink polka-dotted nightgown, looked exactly like the young Sepia in Vivian’s memories.

“Hey Vivian… .”

“Yes, lady?”

“If you want to fall in love, you can do it. If it’s not with Ethan… I’ll give you permission.”

Vivian smiled brightly.

“Why, why are you laughing?”

“no. miss.”

It was Vivian who was still smiling cutely in sepia.

Anyway, midterm exams are over.

Whether you fail the test or do well, it’s over anyway.

Surprisingly, the results were released within a week.

Dragon’s strongest follows all academy’s national rules.

That is, the results are released to the whole world.

Practical skills, written notes, and overall grades.

Even the change ranking is exposed nakedly.

Midterm exams in the first semester are based on the entrance grade. All are attached to the Daejabo.

What kind of mental abuse is this?

“Eh… .”

Suddenly there was dissatisfaction with the empire’s education system.

Of course, even if a candidate like me grumbled, nothing would change.

—————————————————————————————–

Reus: 1st in practical skills, 3rd in writing, 1st in overall

Tesha: 2nd in practical skills, 1st in writing, 2nd in overall

·

Tia Erze: 7th in practical skills, 5th in writing, 7th overall (2nd place ▲)

·

—————————————————————————————–

I slowly checked the poster.

As the novel develops, Reus and Tesha were ranked first and second in the entire school.

However, there was a difference.

‘Sepia von Lognes: 12th in practical skills, 21st in writing, 16th in overall.’

Why is he getting such a bad grade?

I couldn’t understand.

In the original work, Sepia was ranked third in the entire school.

In terms of magic, I heard the voice of a genius with Logness lineage, and in magic, there was no one to follow in the school year.

Looking around, Sepia was shocked.

‘What… . The original has already been distorted, but I can’t help it.’

Still, the original was distorted, so there were victims.

And I felt a little sorry that it was sepia.

If it wasn’t for me, Sepia would have had a decent school life.

Oh, our eyes met.

“Yo, it’s because I haven’t been able to study lately because of personal things… .”

As if muttering, Sepia left that excuse and left.

I read the poster slowly.

‘Arthur Pendragon: Practical 40th, Written 42nd, Overall 41st’

Arthur, like a growth-oriented protagonist, had mid-level grades.

And as the semester passed, his grades would rise vertically, so I didn’t have any worries.

Anyway, my nose is stone, but who cares about whom?

Anyway, my grades… .

“Wow… . Ethan. This is enough to get a scholarship for improving grades?”

Arthur was pointing at my name.

And there… .

Ethan: 42nd in practical skill, 47th in writing, 45th overall (54th ▲)

So… .

My entrance grade was 99th out of 100 students, second from behind.

And now, 45th overall.

It was a whopping 54th place improvement.

No, strictly speaking, it did not rise 54th.

There are two main types of warrior candidates.

If you entered the academy with the one chosen by the goddess and engraved the pattern.

So there were 100 candidates each.

And I belong to the latter.

I don’t remember taking the exam, but after being possessed, it turned out that I passed the academy in 99th place.

In other words, if you look at the admission, 100 more candidates have been added.

A friend and competitor becomes a copy!

So, roughly calculated, my grades did not rise to 53rd place, but double that, to 106th place.

‘How many ranks did Arthur go up when he received the scholarship?’

I can’t remember those exact numbers.

At that time, I think Arthur was roughly 30th at the end of the first semester… .

As I thought about it, an arc line was drawn at the corner of my mouth.

‘This… , Unconditional grade increase scholarship each.’

And sure enough.

In a week, I was able to receive the academic scholarship.

The person in charge of administrative affairs smiled.

“Student, I see you often these days.”

“hahahaha! It happened that way.”

“Take a grade scholarship, too. In addition, this time, I also received the Mine reward, so what else was it… So you got money from an anonymous benefactor too?”

I thought you weren’t interested in everything because you were blunt. The staff seemed to have a better memory than expected.

“The professors are all interested in the student’s progress… !”

“hahahaha! Yes, Joe, that’s good news.”

So why should I get that attention?

Arthur, the main character, should receive it.

I swallowed a sigh that was about to burst out, accepting the gift and check from the administration staff.

Returning to the dormitory, I put the check I received for the scholarship and mine hunting reward on the desk.

‘Academic scholarship of 2 million ele. A reward of 20,000,000 ele, the 60th rank demon, Zagan. A total of 22 million eles were created.’

Is that all?

The amount invested in stocks was copied differently every day.

I murmured as I looked at the bankbook with the balance stamped on it.

‘Should I just get rid of the academy and start farming… .’

It’s been a while, but I’ve even heard that thought.

But it was impossible.

Because the original was twisted as it was twisted.

‘I’m going to do what Sony should do…’ .’

I sighed and walked to the window and stretched.

club room.

Tia looked at the report card and smiled slightly.

7th overall. It was never a bad grade.

Rather, it was a higher score than the effort he put in.

“I roughly knew. level of this academy. It’s boring. To the point where I want to die because it is trivial.”

Tia smiled bitterly.

She had the blood of a high-ranking elf.

Thanks to that, if it’s a bow, it’s a bow, if it’s spirit sensitivity, it’s spirit sensitivity, and there’s even magic management ability.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that there was nothing lacking.

If you learn one from childhood, you know ten.

Nadia Academy.

The Empire’s best warrior training institution.

I was nervous at first too.

But honestly, it was boring.

It’s just that I studied hard during the test period.

“Hey, Tia. Isn’t that a line spoken by a first-class student?”

Anya asked as if she didn’t understand Tia’s intentions.

Anya’s grades were extreme in practical and written grades.

His practical skills were 5th, but his writing was in the 60th.

Thanks to that, the overall score was 33rd.

“Whoops, Anya. Grades don’t matter that much. Do you think I won’t be number one? It’s just that I’m not aiming for it because it doesn’t pay off compared to the effort and time I put in.”

Tia talked about liquidation flow.

Anya nodded moderately.

‘Well, if that’s you, then it must be like that.’

There were only Tia and Anya in the club room.

‘Still, my eyes were accurate.’

Ethan’s grades drew a vertical upward curve.

If you hit the top or guild, the stock price drew a high-altitude march.

‘Then he seems to like Ethan, right?’

‘Is it? am i right? Isn’t that why I’m checking Ethan’s hanging out?’

He remembered what he had heard from the princess.

If Tia dared to call the princess arrogant, she wanted to say yes.

“Anya, what do you think of Ethan?”

“Ethan? Why all of a sudden?”

“Suddenly, I wonder what you think.”

Anya didn’t think much of it.

“Yeah… . You think you’re a good friend?”

“Yes, he is a good friend.”

“But why Ethan? Tia, do you like Ethan too?”

It was as natural as the sun rising in the east.

At those words, Tia slowly turned around.

“No, why is everyone doing that? Everyone likes Ethan, but he pretends not to… .”
