104 – Enlightenment (1)
What is the most important thing in establishing civilization? Personally, I think of it as a ‘culture’ that unites people.
Most civilizations were formed when agriculture and collective life began, but eating well and living well does not end it.
Among them, ‘law’ is a kind of line that symbolizes morality and ethics and is a powerful deterrent. Without the law, civilization would have been destroyed long ago.
Human beings are animals that have grown up chasing after their desires. Civilization would have collapsed if he had freely expressed that desire.
Also, laws are different from country to country. Because of this, there are many cases in which it is difficult to understand the unique laws of each country.
The reason why I say this is that no matter how much I am, I cannot ignore the laws of this world.
Especially when it comes to ‘violence’, which is used in most civilizations.
“What a fuss…!”
“Ah. I’m here.”
It’s Friday and it’s exam period, but people are still there. Besides, the door is wide open, so there is no noise.

I still can’t forget the look on the professor’s face. He was struggling hard to figure out the situation.
Delphi passed out with all his teeth knocked out, while Grace lay quietly on the sofa, catching her breath.
Finally, I press down on Grace’s hand and apply acupressure. I have no idea what the hell is going on.
Still, what is certain is that I beat Delphi to death. This one was a clear fact, so there was no choice but to be arrested.
If you commit a crime at the academy, you will be punished according to the laws of your country, but I am a wild man with nothing.
Violence is clear, but it means that each country has different laws, so they don’t know what to do. In fact, the laws in Matra and Granada are different.
Granada has a fairly wide range of self-defense and is tolerant of violence, while Matra is famous for governing with a strong rule of law.
Because of this, I couldn’t go outside during the weekend and had no choice but to stay in the dorm. It is a problem that arises because there is no proper ‘background’.
“Professor Delphi’s charges have been revealed. He will be imprisoned for the rest of his life for attempted rape and drug abuse.”
In contrast, it does not mean that there is no person in charge. Rize, who lives with her, stepped forward as the person in charge.
When she said she would take her responsibility, she was loud for a while, but I was in the eye of the typhoon. No matter how things turn out, it’s still.
“The Duke of Berche also asked them to take care of Delphi. Irril quickly handed them over. There probably won’t be any problems.”
“Yum yum yum.”
“Ah. By the way, Arias is famous as a land of magic. It wouldn’t hurt to visit at least once later.”
I moved my hands vigorously as I listened to Rize’s explanation. Right now, in front of me are the food prepared by Rize.
I couldn’t do anything during the weekend, so Rize took care of all the meals. It was mostly satisfactory because of his excellent skill.
“Yum yum. Me?”
That doesn’t mean I’m not interested at all. I don’t care what happens to Delphi, but I wonder what will happen to me.
It’s best if it can be handed over in self-defense. However, the opinion that the state of Delphi has crossed the line has sometimes been heard.
My teeth are all broken, so I won’t be able to speak properly, let alone magic, and I won’t be able to function as a man for the rest of my life.
Although it is just the right measure for attempted rape, old people and inconvenient people do exist.
Moreover, the fact that I came from the wild spread widely, and even the danger was highlighted.
“Brother, you don’t have to worry. Rod and I are going to stand up and defend you. Above all, the Duke of Berche will never ignore you.”
“Okay.”
“I don’t know if you know the trial… But I won’t go there. Now that Professor Delphi’s charges have been revealed, I’ll pass it on for the sake of the Academy’s honor.”
Honor is also honorable, but I am the one who committed self-defense. Even if I caught the fault, I couldn’t do anything about it.
Jail through trial? If this happens, words will come out from the other side, including the Duke of Berche.
No one knows what kind of bomb I will explode if I don’t do anything.
Thanks to Rize’s intervention, things went smoothly. As long as she was in charge of her, no one could disagree.
“Well done. I’m sure Chaos-nim will be happy too. Chaos-nim is content with doing necessary evil to fight injustice.”
A message popped up that my faith had risen. I just ignored Grace’s hands as acupressure.
I raised my head for a moment when Rize mentioned Chaos. It is to check what my current faith is.
[???]
•Muscle Strength: 145
•Agility: 140
•HP: 148
mana: 145
•Luck: 102
•Faith: 40
My faith after the midterm exam was 34, but now it is 40. It rose by a whopping 6.
Originally, it was a small climb, but it seems that they are very satisfied with the rescue of Grace this time.
‘But what do you do with faith?’
It’s good to go up, but it’s a problem because there’s nothing to do. There is no problem with the thunderbolt as it is united with my red magic power.
What will this faith give me? It’s good to have a variety of languages, but I’m curious about other things.
‘Someday you’ll know.’
The important thing now is my treatment and Grace’s condition. I want to visit Grace, but she needs to rest.
In addition, he is under strict escort from the Duke of Berche, who has just heard the news.
It was almost a case of losing a cow and fixing the barn, but it was prevented.
“What about Grace?”
Still, I can’t help but wonder. Even in Soul World, there was a description that she suffered from trauma for a while.
Although it was only an attempt, it came to the point that her own virginity was corrupted. In the future, even a simple touch will respond sensitively.
“Student Grace, as I said earlier, is getting her settled. She may take a little longer for Brother Sivar to visit.”
“Hmm…”
“You don’t have to worry too much. If it wasn’t for the Shibar brothers, Student Grace would be very dangerous…”
Smart tok tok-
It was before Rize could even speak. Our conversation was interrupted by someone knocking on the dorm door.
At that, Rize and I looked at the door at the same time. There should be academy guards guarding the front of my dormitory right now.
Unless the charges are completely removed, they are half-detained. At least with Rize’s protection, they could go outside.
“Wait a minute.”
Lizee got up from her seat and walked towards the door, probably feeling something strange.
I didn’t stop her hand even as I looked at her back. The food is so delicious that her hands can’t stop.
“Who are you?”
[I am from the Duke of Berche. I came to see Shivar, can I come in?]
Surprisingly, behind the door were personnel dispatched from the Duke of Berche. I wish I had come to say thank you.
Rize slowly opened her door and faced the person who said she was from the Duke of Berche.
“Excuse me, saintess. May I come in for a moment?”
“Yes. Come in.”
Rize, as if she thought it was okay, allowed her to visit. At last, as she moved away from her seat, her visitor came in.
I could have guessed from the voice, but it’s still a man. A man with the same face as Grace.
He is quite tall and has a stocky physique. As he is an aristocrat, his handsome face is a bonus.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Arthas Aria del Berce, the eldest son of the Duke of Berce.”
It’s a name that sounds like you’re going to lose something. I looked at him blankly as he greeted me politely.
Looks like Grace’s older brother. You can tell by looking at those sharp eyes and purple hair.
“Mr. Shibar… Is that right? A person with a very unique background.”
“Yes.”
I answered Arthas’ question with a nod. I still didn’t get up from my seat and just mumbled rice.
Meanwhile, Arthas stared at my face. It’s like a search.
“Can I sit down for a minute?”
Then he asked me for permission. It didn’t matter, so I agreed with a nod.
Lizee sat next to me as Arthas sat down. Seeing that, Arthas’ expression softened a bit.
It must seem strange that a great man, a saint and a great man, naturally sits down. I’m used to it, so I’m going to move on.
“First of all, I would like to say thank you for saving my brother from danger. Not only on behalf of the Duke of Berche, but also as a personal thank you.”
“Yes.”
“I don’t know if you’ve heard, but Delphi, which you blocked, will be transferred to the Duke of Berze. The trial will be held there, but… It seems you have already punished it.”
The disposition of Delphi is irrelevant. What bothers me is the noun that refers to me.
Arthas called me ‘Sir’. That is, a person who becomes a duke or something.
It’s not a strange position to be treated disrespectfully if it’s the same as usual, but I don’t know if it’s because of Rize’s notice, or if it’s for some other reason.
“You?”
So I asked what do you mean by calling me noble? But there is something overlooked here.
“Ah. Is the word “You” Difficult?
That I am being treated like a wild person. Arthas was very kind.
I almost laughed out loud, but I just let it go. It’s annoying for her to pry on skewers for no reason.
“This matter is deeply related to the honor of the Duke of Berche. Therefore, you will never be disadvantaged. I have come to inform you of this.”
“Yes.”
“And also…”
Arthas told a long, boring story. To say that I will not go to trial, that compensation will be given, and so on.
When I took out the sajok phrase, I heard it with one ear and let it go with the other ear. If you’re going to give me a reward, I’d rather give it in money.
Still, I’m not very dissatisfied. Originally, it would be a situation where you would have to drag everything to trial.
First of all, you can start with the reason why I visited the Delphi lab. In the eyes of others, something may not be right.
If you cover all of these things, you will be able to regain your freedom relatively quickly.
“Lastly, I have something I would like to suggest to you. I guess it’s not a suggestion, it’s a request.”
“Please?”
“Yes. The Duke of Berche was originally going to escort Grace. But Grace stubbornly refused.”
I vaguely remember. Grace’s self-confidence dies after the incident, and her character changes.
The self-assured attitude I saw before is gone, and I even develop social phobia, and I feel sorry for him in many ways.
Instead, as time goes by, you regain your confidence and your unique personality returns, but the feeling of pity doesn’t change.
“When you are in trouble with this, Grace requested it. Grace wants you to be an escort knight.”
“Huh?”
What is this again? Did something like this happen in Soul World?
I don’t remember for sure, so I’m not sure. I wonder if this person is visiting in the first place.
As I reacted in bewilderment, Arthas added an explanation.
“I know you are busy too. But for Grace’s peace of mind…”
“Okay.”
“Yes?”
“I’ll do it. Escort.”
I’ll give you a bit of an escort. Instead, I want to ask you this.
As an escort, you always have to stick by your side, but I wonder if that’s possible.
Above all, I am a student. I wonder if escort is possible as a student.
No matter how much you are in the same class, there are times when you have to fall apart. If this is the case, the escort will not work properly.
“How?”
I imply all of that and asked Arthas. As an escort, you might be able to get some cake from Grace.
But there was one part I overlooked. That I am being treated like a wild person who knows nothing.

“Uh… Shall I start with the escort?”
“··· ···”
“An escort literally means to protect a target. So you have to stay by Grace’s side…”
Don’t ask. I regretted it.
‘Then why did they single out me as an escort?’
What changed her? I’m a little curious.
[Faith rises!]
What the hell are you?
