How to Survive at the Academy-Chapter 194

I thought I was like this (2)

– Bang!!

The scarecrow that had been prepared in the outdoor practice class was engulfed in an explosion and fell off.

In fact, it is a target prepared to be used alternately between students. The students gathered in the practice area widened their eyes when they saw that it was shattered with one magic shot.

Just looking at the debris that could be seen through the rising smoke, it was beyond the level of basic elemental magic.

‘One point explosion’

It is a type with relatively low firepower for a lieutenant’s magic. It was a combat magic that gave up firepower and emphasized speed.

Nevertheless, smoke spread around the practice area due to the aftermath of the explosion, which was quite large.

After a while, the field of vision returned, and the caster of magic, Ed Roth Taylor, was standing with his hands waving his magical powers.

Quite a lot of magic must have been consumed, but there was no sign of difficulty or unreasonableness. Without shedding a single drop of sweat, he had just released a lieutenant’s magic of this magnitude with the sensation of just one wave of his hand.

“Okay. Just do that.”

Practical class of practical elemental combat magic.

The 3rd graders, who entered the first full lieutenant magic practice class since school started, were already very nervous and gathered together.

Students gathered to learn the first lieutenant’s magic properly. In the meantime, the existence of Ed Roth Taylor, who had already mastered the lieutenant’s magic several by one, was quite a sense of incongruity.

Professor Kaleid, who was looking at the practice site with tired eyes after leaving the practical classroom, turned his eyes to look at the general students.

The scarecrows, who appear to be strong even by pretending, are in a state of wide open eyes at the sight of the scarecrows that have fallen out.

Even Ed Rothtailer, who used magic, doesn’t even look like he’s having a hard time.

It was famous for the fact that he had already reached a high level with respect to elemental magic, but he didn’t think he could even use elemental magic so neatly.

Seeing Ed wiping his clothes in the smoke, the students seemed to have lost their will.

“Ed Roth Taylor. From tomorrow, just go to Class A.”

“I haven’t gotten a class transfer rating yet.”

“You don’t have to wait until then. I’ll report it to the Trix Hall, so get ready to move.”

It doesn’t seem like it will have a very good impact on the students who attended the class with the expectation of finally practicing the lieutenant’s magic. Professor Kaleid was annoyed, but felt the need to act quickly.

In the first place, there was no reason for a student who had already taken the 3rd grade to conduct a class in such a low class because the class transfer evaluation had not yet been conducted.

“It looks like you’re already good at Lieutenant magic. Go to Class A and just take the high-ranking magic course. I have a class that I’m in charge of, so let’s watch it again there.”

“All right.”

There was a lot of chatter among the students for a while.

The story of taking a high-level magic course is one of the highest honors you can hear as a student in the Ministry of Magic.

If you can use even one high-level magic properly before graduation, you will be evaluated as one of the best talents of that generation.

Even if you look at all the grades of the Sylvanian Ministry of Magic right now, the number of students who can wield high element magic is in the palm of your hand.

However, the number has increased due to the development of the educational system. There was a longer time when students could not even imagine that a high-ranking magician could emerge from among the students.

“Go back today. You won’t learn anything in this class.”

Kaleid yawned once, as if in annoyance, and then waved his hand at Ed. There was nothing more to teach, so I just meant to go.

It’s full of students who are just starting their first lieutenant’s magic. He’s the kind of student who doesn’t want to be among them.

Ed Rothtaylor looked at Professor Kaleid like he was crazy, then nodded his head a few times before heading towards the exit of the lab.

Watching Ed leave the training room calmly, all the students gulped dry saliva.

*Time went up from the first day of the practice class.

I was instructed to leave the practice room out of nowhere, and I went out to the student plaza.

After taking the elementary science practice class, after eating, I went to the monster ecology class, stopped by the library to borrow a design book, and asked the maids of the Ophelis Hall to give me some training courses that would raise my repair level.

After that, I went back to camp and did some log trimming, checked hunting traps, trimmed the fish, repaired the hut, and even went to bed in my head.

It is not very pleasant to have gaps in a well-organized daily routine.

The hot summer is slowly coming to an end, and the autumn wind is blowing a little bit cooler.

As I sit in the student plaza and dazzle in the midday sun… I see the students moving in a hurry.

I’ve never been idly staring at the scenery of a bachelor because I’ve always been frantic, but there was certainly a scene that could be called a holy place of study and a place where youth bloomed.

Seeing the students wearing their school uniforms and chatting hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

There are a lot of things that I didn’t realize because I was living my life alone in a miserable way. What you will see only after you have relaxed a little is that this Sylvania is a place where even the children of nobles want to go to school.

Did you just struggle to live without wasting too much?

There are certainly times when such a thought arises out of nowhere. I can’t help it. Living like this is ingrained in my body.

“Hmm…”

As I sat quietly on a bench basking in the sunlight, I suddenly thought of something to do in my free time.

I can’t leave the school until the next class starts anyway, so it’s better to go to the Obell Hall attached to the Student Square.

In the building of the Obell Hall, which is no less the home of the current student council, there must be Tanya, who returned to school yesterday.

As there are still a number of procedures to be followed after returning to school, I thought that Tanya would be quite busy as well. Since you have returned to school on a tight schedule, you will have a lot of work to do.

So, I thought to visit on the weekend when there is no student council schedule or academic schedule. On weekdays, I am also very busy.

However, I don’t think it’s bad to visit once when time is running out.

“…”

I remembered the last sight of Tanya I had seen before leaving the Roth Taylor mansion.

Standing in front of the ruins of a collapsed mansion, clutching the flag engraved with the family seal.

The man who was determined to be the next head of the Roth Taylor mansion, completely put aside his childish attitude, and looked straight ahead. The last look of her like that kept coming to my mind.

Not only that, he is also negotiating with the imperial family as a representative of the remaining Roth Taylor forces, and, according to Tracyana, seems to be gathering his own forces…

He has become a lot more mature than when he first saw him, and his appearance as a leader who leads the group will be quite noticeable.

Let’s exchange information about what’s happened in the past, and if there’s something to encourage, let’s encourage it.

Well, it looks like you’ve grown a lot internally… I don’t think there’s any need for that.

Obviously, you’ll be fine on your own. Because everyone grows in the face of adversity.

*”I want to hit them all… Uhhh…”

Despite all such expectations, Tanya, who was sitting in the student council president’s office, had not changed at all.

“Obviously, it was my dream to become the student council president and spread the glory of the Roth Taylor family, but the family sank. Danny is full of people talking about household chores, but he still has the post of student council president, so he has a lot of work to do. I don’t want to live like this. I want to forget everything and leave…”

“…”

“A house… Shall we build a house… Beat the academics… Gather the leftover inheritance… Somewhere in the Cohelton region, or in the Lamelen Mountains, buy a windy meadow… Plus, I built a house that was pretty decent to live alone… and I spent a lot of time embroidering in my room, or drawing pictures… It might not be that bad…”

No, to put it bluntly, it was the exact opposite.

Tanya Roth Taylor, who wanted to gain worldly power and become more authoritative than anyone else, had become more pessimistic and greedy than anyone else in just one year.

Thinking about Tanya’s life, I think it would be the same for me.

Tears try to cover my eyes

“Sometimes I read a book… I go to a tea house in a nearby village and pretend to be a regular… When I hear the news from the city, I laugh and laugh, just like that… Occasionally appearing in town, If you live your life pretending to be a woman who has a lot of money… This is not a bad life… Ah… I want to go back to farming… I want to farm… Forget about power and lineage, and enjoy the fragility of time. I want to drink tea while feeling…”

“Tanya… you’re broken a lot…”

“It doesn’t look like it’s broken…? Uh-huh… Uh-huh…”

Burying her head in front of the imposing student president’s desk, Tanya let out a cry.

“I have to review ninety-seven documents for complaint handling within today. And now that I have returned to school, I have to go to the Trix Hall and chat with Principal Obell, and write a thank-you letter for the support provided by the Felbron noble family… Maintenance of the student hall I have to go out to see if the construction is complete, but I want to go to class…”

“…go for it.”

“Besides, I also have to check the Roth Taylor home family. Princess Selaha puts strange checks on me whenever she has a chance, and the vassals are not the only ones suffering. I receive hundreds of letters a day, and that’s all. Even just reading it, my eyes are tired and my vision is getting blurry. People don’t applaud me for working so hard, I just look at it as belonging to the Roth Taylor family… Please save me, brother.”

“….go for it!!!!!!!!!”

In fact, it was Tanya herself who claimed to be the next Californian, and it was Tanya’s own choice to run for the student council president and be elected.

Judgment itself is a matter that Tanya has to make, and I do not have any authority over it.

“In the beginning, the last time I saw you in the Roth Taylor family, I think you were much more dignified.”

“At that time… the atmosphere was like that. I just felt like I had to be brave, and I was in a situation where I had to show myself as the next leader to lead the family while pretending to have realized many things…”

“Yeah, it was.”

“At that time, I felt like my heart was pounding inside, but… the reality is that it’s just full of papers and hard work…”

Tanya sighed in relief and lifted her head that had been buried on the desk. And when he made eye contact with me, he saw me in bandages here and there and said,

“There are some scars, but you’ve improved a lot, brother.

“Thanks to you, I took some time off in Sylvania. There were some incidents while you were returning to school after work, but it worked out.”

“That’s good. Your brother is going to go to Sylvania until graduation, right?”

“Well, yes.”

You also have to deal with the valve lock. If I go to school, I definitely want to get a diploma.

The diploma from this school was always what I was aiming for when I was thrown into this world. Now it feels like it has even been given a pretty symbolic meaning.

“I wonder if I can realistically handle school affairs and even family affairs… I have my doubts.”

“Then… are you going to stop going?”

“I don’t know. Actually, there is a lot of sense of belonging to the bachelor’s degree. While attending this semester, I’m going to try to finish the work behind me and think about it.”

No matter this or that, one responsibility has definitely grown.

If it’s really hard, throw everything away and run away without knowing it, but no one in the world will blame you.

Nevertheless, Tanya returned to the bachelor’s degree to complete all the tasks that were given to me.

Although he used to cry a lot, it was proof that he was holding on somehow.

“Still, it feels good to visit you directly from your brother. For the past few months, I’ve only been meeting places with serious noises or people who have to bear weight… It’s the first time I’ve been lamenting like this. …”

“Yeah, it was hard…”

“Anyway, the family business is going smoothly. I have also recruited Commander Magnus of the Callamore family, Sinir Bloomriver of the Bloom River family, and Erkel Elpelan of the El Phelan family.”

All of them were famous people whose names worked all over the empire. No matter what Roth Taylor’s name was, they weren’t easy to join. freёwebnoѵel.com

“How did you recruit such giants?”

“Because I showed hostility towards Princess Selaha without any change.”

Tanya fully lifted her upper body and buried herself on the soft sofa for the student council president. There was a faint sign of tiredness, but he continued to speak.

“If it’s an opponent who can’t be an ally anyway, I thought it would be best to solidify my position as the opposing party and gather like-minded people together.”

“In the end, it was a political decision.”

“I just didn’t like that Princess Selah very much. She keeps saying things that I hate.”

Was it a more primitive problem?

“And, well, I didn’t like the fact that they were all blood of the imperial family. It’s all bloodlines.

I never thought the day would come when these words came out of Tanya Roth Taylor’s mouth.

Tanya’s appearance that I saw in ＜ Failed Swordsman of Sylvania> was already different from the appearance of Tanya. In front of her sits a blonde girl who has turned completely pessimistic and smiles that blood is just blood.

Is this the villain girl who risked her life for the prestige of the Roth Taylor family and always laughed arrogantly? My heart is pounding…

“For the time being, I thought it would be better to move toward recruiting allies. Well, I can handle any family-related issues well. Often times, if I have trouble or need help, I will tell my brother as well.”

“Yeah, tell me without adding or subtracting. We’re a family by lineage.”

It’s important to support Tanya, who is suffering from chronic fatigue right now.

I looked at Tanya and talked about it.

“I am well aware that you are always working hard, and I am sure that the day will come when you will be rewarded for it. So, don’t be heartbroken, and if you have any difficulties, please tell me anytime. I am willing to help as far as I can reach.”

“…”

It can be said that it is textbook-like, but in any case, it was a stereotyped encouragement. However, Tanya’s reaction was more dramatic than I expected.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at me as if surprised.

“What is the expression on your face that makes you feel like you’re looking at that strange sight…”

“No… I’m grateful that my brother encourages me. I just… I think that there aren’t many people around who give me such natural encouragement.”

“It means you’ve been doing well.”

“It would be more comfortable for me to interpret that way. Well… Thank you, brother. I’ll do my best.”

Tanya then smiled softly, then quickly straightened her back and clenched her fists. I am fighting on my own.

It seems that I was under a lot of work until I entered the president’s office under the guidance of the student members. The desk is full of papers.

It’s not a big deal, it’s been a while since I met my blood and blood and just talked a little bit about getting my life together. That alone seemed to soften my heart a lot.

That’s what family is. Even if they don’t share great experiences or share great stories… They’re the kind of people whose heart softens just by meeting them in a foreign country.

“Your brother will be on Aken Island all semester, right? First of all, the most important thing is to take a bachelor’s course.”

“Yes. Still, I may be out of Aken Island for a week or so next week. It’s not confirmed yet, but I can apply for a vacancy.”

“Is it public? Do you go to any public events?”

“No, that… it’s complicated, so to speak…”

I told Tanya the same conversation I had with Saint Clarisse at the camp last night.

A prayer meeting at the Cledric’s Monastery.

The news that Princess Persica is visiting where the distinguished guests are attending.

And additionally, the words Clarisse said with Hwacolor.

“I asked if he would like to attend the prayer meeting together. He said that if you go with me, it will not be boring, but rather exciting.”

“…Saint Clarisse talks like that? I can’t quite imagine it…”

“…”

“Well, I’ve never seen him have a long private conversation. Why, right? St. Clarisse is something… very mature… She looks kind… Because that’s what it feels like…”

It reminds me of Clarisse standing in my cabin holding a chair and bee.

When I think of the moment when I was trembling with tears in my eyes, I feel a sense of incongruity with Tanya’s words.

“Wait… Cedric’s Monastery?”

“Yeah. Did you know?”

“Of course I know. We, the Roth Taylor family, were also baptized by the Telos Church. The family where California was baptized sends a representative to the prayer meeting of the monastery as a courtesy.”

“Did you go?”

“I’m the most comfortable. I’m the one who inherited the blood of Gaju, but I’m not in a hurry or in a hurry right now… If I go as the representative, I get quite a bit of noodles.”

He seemed to understand why so many distinguished guests attended the prayer meeting. Most of them are heirs sent from the family level.

Since they are the people who have been representing the Telos Church as an example, there is a high possibility that it will be a very diverse place.

Tanya thought so quietly, then twisted her lips into an uncomfortable expression.

“I… don’t really recommend going there…”

“Is that so…”

“At first, it was the Geumnam District. From my childhood memories… I thought it was a really weird place. It’s really unavoidable for a maintenance man or a high-ranking cleric who is an archbishop, a man can’t even walk. … But when Ed’s brother-in-law enters, it’s so bubbly.”

I’m not in a very comfortable position either.

In addition, if you say that you pay public decency and attend a prayer meeting, you are talking about having to skip all classes.

From my point of view, who is digesting each episode with respect, it is not very well received.

Nevertheless, it is said that it is a place where the great variable of Princess Persica appears…

“How do you get into a place that has been thoroughly maintained as the Geumnam District for over 100 years?”

“I heard that I’m going to try to push through to a position of assistant to Saint Clarisse. Roughly attaching a magical reason.”

“No, it would be difficult to make an exception to such a long tradition so easily… but surely it may be possible with the authority of the saint.”

“…”

“The people of the Telos Church are eccentric people who sacrifice everything for the safety and convenience of a saint. Certainly, it’s not a big deal… Bringing in a man may be a possible cause… Because they have a definite purpose. …”

“So, is your opinion better not to go with this?”

In response to my question, Tanya nodded her head without reason.

“There is an image of a mysterious space that was originally built on the coast and can only be entered at low tide… but from my point of view after spending a few days there, it’s just another world where people who don’t know the world gather.”

“Well, I’m expecting that too.”

“They are said to be noble nuns who follow the will of God, but they are also used to forcibly send troubled daughters away from noble families or to exile them. There are many orphans who have been abandoned for some reason, or illegitimate children who are not able to announce their birth recklessly.”

Those who pray according to the will of God. Once that business card is run, the darkness of birth or the tomboy-like temperament shameful to give away is somehow covered.

“A place where there are a lot of really faithful believers and even children from family backgrounds gather. Anyway, it’s a town where they live and get together only with themselves. They have a closed temperament, and also… they have little immunity to outsiders…”

“What does that mean?”

Tanya said, shaking her body, whether there was something that was being stepped on in her memory.

“I told you that… men were also involved in the maintenance of the monastery. Most of them are construction workers, so they are dull or bearded uncles.”

“…”

“Even such people often had eye contact with the nuns and they turned around. They have no immunity to men to the extent that this makes sense. With… that… it’s hard to say…”

I think I was trying to say something… I was afraid to ask more about it.

“Anyway, I also had a few nuns that I spoke to or became close friends with while living in the Cedric’s Monastery for a few days. By the way, even eye contact with a real man envisions a series of flows that flow through life’s twilight as companions. …?”

“…”

“Even against those sloppy uncles! What if someone like your brother fell in a place like that…! They’re perfect for their nightlife, and they’re even pretty…!”

What kind of memory does the time spent at Cledric’s Monastery remain for Tanya?

Seeing the serious dislike of him, I couldn’t bear to say anything.

“It’s just… a natural disaster… A natural disaster! It’s okay, things get complicated and accidents are much more likely. So… Never go… I do not recommend it at all. Relationships around your brother If you think about it, it’s absolutely the opposite. Absolutely!”

After pouring out her Japanese speech, Tanya sighed as she buried herself on the sofa again.

Then Tanya took a moment to calm down… and then seemed to realize that she was overheating.

“That… I was too excited to just talk about myself. I’m sorry, brother.”

“No… that… I understood your opinion.”

Even the faithful Saint Clarisse did not want to go to Cedric’s Monastery.

Tanya as a child, what a terrible time she had there.

I didn’t know how to respond to Tanya’s reaction like that… There was only an awkward atmosphere in the chairman’s room for a while.

*Today is Yenica whose schedule has ended with only morning classes. She had already returned to camp and was preparing dinner.

Normally, I would choose a meal menu with Ed or discuss how to cook it by looking at the remaining ingredients, but today I am completely preparing myself.

Having prepared a meal in advance and waiting for Ed to return home, the situation became quite proud, and Yenika with her arms rolled up hummed.

It was a car that was contemplating what to eat while checking the number of various meats, vegetables, and spices prepared in the camp.

“Ah, I don’t know…!”

A guest has arrived at the camp.

Since Ed’s Cottage Camp is located in a very remote place even in the North Forest, guests rarely come by chance unless they come here on purpose.

So, most of the people who came to the camp were acquaintances of Ed.

“…?”

Yenika, who had been checking the ingredients for a long time, looked at the source of the sound with puzzled eyes. When I asked who it was, it was Patriciana Bloomriver, a member of the 4th grade Ministry of Magic.

We’re not close friends, but we know the extent of their existence. Jenica’s point of view.

From Patriciana’s point of view, Yenica Palerover, a famous student at the bachelor’s degree, is not well acquainted with her, and even feels a strange intimacy.

Still, they’re not really close friends, so Patriciana crouched and spoke to Yenica.

“Yeah, Yenika right…? You say you live in this camp…?”

“…well, so… Patriciana-senpai?”

“Uh, yeah! You remembered my name. Yeah… That’s right, I’m Patriciana.”

Seeing Patriciana approaching something suspicious, Yenica tilted her head.

Yenica doesn’t even know that Patriciana’s secret laboratory is in the North Woods. Merylda was aware of the fact, but she didn’t bother to tell Yenika.

If I tried to report every move in the forest to Yenika, I would have to talk about the forest all day.

In the end, even if it was the information that the spirits gave to Yenika, it would only be focused on the things she thought she should know.

“Edrang and I got to know him a little bit because of work… It wasn’t a very pleasant thing… No, anyway, do you have time anyway?”

Patriciana frowned and looked around.

Then he took the reagent out of his pocket and smiled awkwardly.

“I have an interesting item… Would you like to hear my story…?”

Yenica, who tilted her head with an innocent expression in the world, with an innocent face, eh? I was just questioning.

For a while, I had to take time to give a full speech about the efficacy of the reagent I had in my hand.

At first, Yenica was listening with interest… Then her expression began to harden little by little.

No matter what, it’s too much of an act to make people confide in their hearts, and to use drugs regardless of the person’s will.

I tried to say firmly that I had no intention of touching such an insidious thing, but…

Unfortunately, Yenica was already in a position to report Ed’s every move from the spirits.

To put it bluntly, rather than receiving a report, the spirits are just chattering to Yenika at will…

Anyway, you shouldn’t be in a position to open up your chest and speak up…!

That fact began to appear in Yenika’s mind.

“Uh, how about…? Are you okay? If I talk about this effect, a lot of people will be interested…?”

“Shhh…”

Yenica looked at the reagent in Patriciana’s hand as if she had imagined something happy, and shook her head.

“Even so, it’s not like it’s not, Patriciana-senpai!”

“Uh, yeah…?”

“It’s not polite to the other person… In the long run, this will only aggravate the relationship…”

Ed was also conscious to some extent of what the spirits were talking about. Ed himself doesn’t really care.

However, touching these reagents is completely against Ed’s will and testing him.

Sadly, there is no way Yenica, who is sad that she is the second to be good, has her hands on such a reagent.

However, from Patriciana’s point of view, it must have been a shock… She was looking at Yenica with wide eyes.

“Well, it can’t be…”

“For now, I have no intention of doing that… Patriciana-senpai. These reagents… just take them home with you…”

Patriciana is looking at Yenica, who calmly expresses her intention of refusal.

Seeing that solid figure, I started to feel a strange reaction again.

“You’re always working hard, Mr. Bell.”

The hallway of the Ophelis Hall.

Tracyana came out of her room and spoke to the maid, Bell, who was directing the clean-up of the hallway.

“Petrin stopped by and went, did you see where she went?”

“You mean Miss Patriciana? Do you have any business? Then I’ll have someone deliver it.”

“Ah, no… I think I’ll have to find it myself… That something… I suddenly became anxious…”

“…Yes?”

Traceyana, who was looking at Bell, was twisting her body while holding my wand in her arms as if anxious.

“It’s just… Maybe… Maybe it’s another accident… There are times when I think like that…”

“That’s right. If Miss Tracyana says that, there must be a reason…”

Bell rested his chin for a moment, pondering, and then continued.

“Isn’t it too hard for yourself to be anxious about buying something that hasn’t happened yet?”

“Is that so…?”

“If anything happens, we will take action so that a report can be made to Miss Traceyana immediately.

“Well, if you say so… Okay…”

Tracyana said that with a bewildered face and went back to her room.

“…”

Bell, who sent Tracyana, tilted her head for a moment, then turned around to give orders to clean up again.

After school started, the workload suddenly increased. Bell was also in a state of mindlessness.
