71. Resume Training! (2)

Sylvia’s room.

Sylvia was checking the documents. Dania entered the room with a knock.

Unlike usual, Sylvia was cold. However, the voice was not much different from usual.

“Was it you? Dania.”

“yes?”

“I asked if it was you who instigated the children to quarrel with Ethan.”

Dania froze, holding the tray she had brought with her. The timing was too late to somehow laugh it off and pretend not to know.

“sorry.”

“Is that what your father ordered you to do?”

“It is my opinion.”

“You are worse at lying than Ethan.”

Sylvia was right. It was the head of the family who ordered Edan to fight with the gang. Dania bowed her head.

As for her, she serves Sylvia, but since there was an existence called the head of the household above her, she had no choice but to follow her words.

“Tell it to the lord. Don’t try to test Ethan by creating an atmosphere like that.”

“… sorry.”

“Leave the car and go.”

The door closed with a thud. Sylvia lifted a can of clear liquid from the desk and poured a few drops into the car.

“Um… . However, I am reluctant to drink it.”

After being poisoned once, I tried to develop resistance to poison in my spare time. I learned how to do it by properly asking my colleague professor Cassia.

Still, reluctance was reluctance.

“Whoa, whoa… .”

As if drinking hot tea, Sylvia took a deep breath. And just drank the tea.

Before long, I was able to see my ancestors waving from afar.

“I-I’m gone or I’m here again… .”

“reading. So she must be Lynchester’s daughter.”

Lognesban’s territory.

Sepia stretched out her hand into the air.

Her pink hair was blown away by the strong magic power. However, Sepia’s expression was very calm.

Before long, a huge magical storm arose and devastated the surroundings. The magic that arose like a magnetic field tore everything into pieces.

The wood and iron bars piled up like a barricade were split in two.

Sepia drew in her breath while discharging her magical energy.

I could feel the magic power reaching my lungs.

Following Sepia’s will, all objects within a radius of several tens of meters rose into the air.

clap clap clap

The sound of applause filled the vacant lot.

“Excellent. Miss Logness.”

A woman approaches in a state of zero gravity where all objects are floating. She seemed completely unaffected by magic.

It was Yuffie, whom people call the ‘wise witch’.

A sudden baptism of flames hit Sepia. However, as if Sepia had predicted it, she spread her round magic in front.

The flames scattered in smoke.

“Now you can implement offense and defense at the same time.”

“Are you passing?”

Yuffie laughed once and then nodded.

“pass. Passed.”

A small smile came to Sepia’s lips. Only then did the objects floating in the air find their place.

Before I knew it, Vivian came to my side and sent me a message of congratulations.

“Congratulations. Sepia girl.”

“Yeah, thank you. Vivian.”

“You moved the schedule forward by a month.”

Sepia was also proud of herself. Even talented people completed in one month what took two months to learn. That alone left no doubt about Sepia’s genius.

“Now give me the confiscated crystal ball.”

“of course.”

Sepia hurriedly received the crystal ball while laughing like a child. Her appearance was unmistakably that of a girl of her age.

“My lady, say hello to the teacher… .”

“Oh, uh, yes. sorry. Teacher.”

Yuffie smiled kindly and shook her head.

“no. sepia. I was at that age too.”

“no. I am all ashamed.”

Sepia shook her head. He endured for a month, counting on the day he would receive the crystal ball.

Still, I felt that I had made a mistake in front of my teacher.

“Do you want to date?”

“yes?”

“It’s to the point that I wonder who the man who is loved by a true sepia-like lady is.”

Sepia rolled her eyes, not knowing what to do.

“this… , I made an excuse. I’m not asking you this.”

Yuffie smiled softly once. Vivian came over and asked.

“I’ll see you next time during winter break.”

“If you call me from the Lognes family. I guess so. In the meantime, stay healthy. Sepia, and Vivian.”

Yuffie rode a broom and flew through the air just as she had come, and disappeared.

Leaving her distant teacher behind, Sepia fiddled with the crystal ball again.

‘Hehe, there must be a lot of text messages from Ethan.’

I turned on the crystal ball and checked the accumulated letters. Three to Arthur, two to Anya, dozens to socialites… . There was also a text message from Tesha.

It was a crystal ball that turned on in a month.

There was a pile of texts. As the letters went down, Sepia’s eyebrows gradually narrowed.

‘ah?’

However, there was not a single text message to the person who was waiting.

“What, why is this happening? Is it broken?”

Taking a deep breath calmly, Sepia checked the message again. He tried to calm his quivering eyes. However, it was the same no matter how many times I scrolled down.

“no? no? Really? Does this make sense?”

The text I was waiting for never came.

I’m sorry. Isn’t it possible to say hello?

“Ugh, this… . this… !”

“miss?”

“Vivian, go find out where Ethan is right now. No, grab it!”

Sepia moved with a stomp. Following the girl who was walking away, Vivian let go of her gun.

‘If you’re curious, you can text me first… .’

July was passing by.

I showed the swordsmanship I had learned. Master checked my movements one by one with a meticulous gaze.

“That’s enough.”

“Are you passing?”

“Yes, I passed.”

I called for joy in my heart. Master held out a canteen filled with water.

“Drink.”

“Master, though, it’s hard to drink as soon as you sweat… .”

“I will make sure that my disciple never gets poisoned.”

It was an added class after Master drank poison that day and became paralyzed.

“I will drink in my room.”

“Then, I will follow you to your room.”

“I will eat according to the tea.”

No matter what, it was like that at the training ground. Master nodded. We moved in together.

After sitting around the table, Master served tea.

“If you show any abnormal symptoms, I will give you the antidote right away.”

I asked with my eyes.

‘Are you really drinking?’

‘Then are you drinking fakes?’

Master nodded. I closed my eyes and one shot the car.

Grandfather, I am going to meet you now.

A bitter aura ran down his throat. On the spot, I hit my head on the floor and passed out.

‘Hey, shopkeeper, I’m back again. Draw.’

‘Tsk tsk, at a young age… . Even if I say I eat poison?’

‘Eh, I thought the young guy’s head would already be broken.’

Even as I clicked my tongue, my ancestors were waving from across the river. I followed my ancestors and waved my hands to see if my head was broken.

Hut!

I inhaled and opened my eyes. The level of the poison resistance skill has now reached 6 beyond 5.

To be honest, this isn’t a perfect poison needle, but it’s not even a thousand poison needles.

When I came to my senses, I was carried to the bed.

“How much time has passed?”

“5 minutes. It’s just been six minutes.”

Even with stronger poison, the cycle was getting shorter and shorter. Master held out a glass of water to me, and I swallowed the rest.

“Ethan, today is the last day.”

“Yes… .”

“Come here. Let’s hug.”

Master hugged me. I closed my eyes in a cozy and warm embrace. A fresh scent like hyacinth wafted from Master’s arms.

“Let’s go see the head of the house.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Ah, Dana. Shouldn’t the crystal ball be changed?”

only. It was the nickname Master called me.

I personally like it because it has an oriental feel to it.

“Crystal ball… . I need to change it.”

I accidentally dropped it and broke it.

I broke it not long after I came to the Lynchester class, but it was already dozens of days ago that I was postponing it to live later because my schedule was busy and I thought there would be no contact with me anyway.

“I’m getting one. The design is also good.”

Among the crystal balls, there were some that looked like snowballs. Well, wouldn’t it be okay to buy something that’s trendy these days?

While having such a conversation, we arrived at the banquet hall.

Benek von Lynchester was waiting for me dressed lightly.

“Are you here? Ethan. Did you say that you worked diligently for seven months?”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Get a good rest today and leave tomorrow.”

“Yes?”

Dangju laughed out loud.

I thought I heard it wrong, but I didn’t.

“The world knows that you are the one to leave anyway.”

“okay.”

“I thought he would live freely like the wind. I once dreamed of such an adventurer’s life. The world is wide and there are many things to do.”

The desert area in the south, the snowy mountain in the north, the great forest of the elves, the labyrinth of the dwarves… .

Place names that I had heard several times appeared.

“If you leave the manor, where are you going?”

“Even if it’s a dragon, I’m going to go see it.”

When I added as a joke, the head of the house laughed again. It wasn’t a joke, of course.

“Ethan, you are more fun than you look! Have you heard of Silbi? You say your disciple sees a dragon?”

Master laughed wordlessly.

“Yes, if you meet a dragon, be sure to say hello.”

“I will.”

That day we had a toast. Like in the social world, I exchanged glasses with Master. Before long, I was feeling good for the first time in a long time.

The next day, I rode the Lynchester family’s wagon to Westbahn. Before getting on the carriage, Master even said goodbye.

“See you at the academy after summer vacation.”

“Master, be healthy in the meantime.”

“Okay, don’t do anything weird for the rest of the vacation.”

“Yes, Master, please treat yourself with some respect.”

He is a teacher who puts the cause above his own life. I just wanted to say this as much as I could.

As if it was absurd, Master laughed.

That was the last conversation I had with Master. I bought a crystal ball from West Barn and completed synchronization with the data of the existing crystal ball.

And he activated a new crystal ball.

“uh? What’s wrong with this?”

“Could it be broken? It must have been because a lot of text messages flew in after a long time.”

The uncle chuckled.

Soon, text messages poured in like crazy.

Through the window in front of my eyes, letters from Arthur, Tesha, Tia, and Anya flashed by. And even letters in sepia.

‘It’s not over yet?’

Whoops.

The thought that the crystal ball might explode at this rate struck me. After a while, the last letter came to mind after the vibration of the crystal ball that seemed to never end.

―Hey, why don’t you text me?

-hey! Ethan, where are you now?

―You will reply as soon as you see it, right?

They were texts from Sepia.
