Academy Genius Tamer Episode 205
vacation is over
first day of school.
As usual, I wake up early in the morning to enjoy brunch, prepare for class early and leave the dormitory at a leisurely pace… .
That didn’t happen.
The exceptionally warm sunlight and the chirping of sparrows in my ears.
“… what?”
What is it, how does this spine feel?
I fumbled and checked the clock on my desk.
Well.
8 o’clock… 48 minutes?
“Shake.”
“Ahhhh!”
As soon as I spit cuss, the circle bounced off the bed.
Her bangs protrude enough to allow a magpie to come and build a house, and her face was hazy as if she was not awake.
oh
Fuck this bastard too.
“Wake up!”
“Crazy, run! Run!”
Woodang Tangtang.
Without even having to pack anything, I pick up what I see and prepare to leave the room.
I’m screaming and trying to open the door… .
The circle screamed like a scream.
“My pants! Where are your pants!”
“Baby, why are you looking for me?”
“It’s gone! Find me!”
“You find it!”
Oh, crazy.
I’m late!
I picked up something like pants that was loosely rolling on the floor and threw it into the circle’s head.
“100 million!”
“Get dressed and come out!”
bang.
Then it’s speed.
He jumped down ten stairs in an instant and ran towards the classroom.
Seeing that the knee joint does not tingle, youth is the best.
Oh, it’s not that important.
“Aww!”
“Huh… Huh… .”
The time when class has not yet started.
We succeeded in arriving safely on the first floor where the classroom was located.
done… .
It’s not too late… .
ha ha…
“I almost fell behind.”
match.
He gasped and clapped his hands with Won.
He took a deep breath and shook his head slowly. As if the classroom door had not yet been opened, the children gathered in the hallway caught my eye.
Congested hallways from the first day of classes.
“Why are you all here? .”
I grunted and put my hands in my pockets.
Then, Won poked my side and tilted my head.
“uh? Isn’t that what everyone is looking at?”
“What?”
Oh, yes.
Now I see that there is a poster in front of the bulletin board.
There must have been no rankings from the first day of class.
I wonder what everyone is looking at like that, so I slowly peek through the crowd.
“What the hell is everyone watching… .”
At that moment, the guys who saw my face step away from their seats as if frightened.
“uh… uh?”
pale tired faces.
Just like the miracle of Moses, the people who had gathered together gently pave the way.
Guys looking at me with a frightened look.
Why are they doing this?
It was the first time I had seen him in almost a year, so I was puzzled and walked forward.
“What’s going on?”
Attached to the bulletin board was a wall paper with large letters written on it.
I stopped in front of the poster and slowly looked up at it.
Professor Han Si-hyuk is a bastard from Castica.
“one… Si-hyuk?”
That in itself is shocking enough information, but
I lowered my head with my mouth open.
And, underneath it.
bold letters.
Professor Han Si-hyuk… .
is a black magician
I bit my lip.
* * *
Discomfortful gazes poured towards me.
The crowd standing on either side was like an interview hall.
They seem to be coming with a microphone soon.
No, you are already doing that.
Deck and Haril.
The guys who were usually in a hurry to keep an eye on me were the first to come out.
As if that were the truth, you were interrogating me with a sharp tone of voice.
As soon as Deck spoke, questions poured in.
“Hey, Hanshiha. What happened?”
“Did you know that?”
“Is that real? Please explain.”
clarification… .
it’s an explanation
“The explanation is blatant.”
Haril, who was trying to explain at my words, secretly hid behind the other guy.
As I stared at the deck with savage eyes, he flinched and carefully looked into my eyes.
Unfortunately, there were many people who hated Castika at this school.
Mainly because of the qualifications that children of noble families have, if I go out strong, there is no one to respond to.
Among them, the bravest one hesitated and raised his hand.
He’s a guy I don’t even know.
“If it’s a rumor… Who goes to Castica’s honor, but shouldn’t we check it out? Well, you can say no… It’s not that I doubt it, it’s that I’m worried.”
Not all words are pretty just because they are beautifully packaged.
He looked straight into the boy’s eyes and asked.
“Are you worried?”
“uh… uh.”
“So you want to explain?”
“The words… That’s right… .”
“If that’s the case, then you should do it, okay?”
I glanced back at the poster and recited the first sentence of the problem.
Professor Han Si-hyuk is a bastard from Castica.
I shrugged and admitted.
Strictly speaking, this is wrong, but externally… .
“That’s right.”
“yes… huh? what?
Then, the next one.
Professor Han Si-hyuk is a black magician.
“Well. You really have to check this out yourself.”
Hmm.
“It makes sense.”
“yes?”
“What?”
“What… what?”
The things I was told to explain are startling like a game.
Well, what do you mean?
He suddenly dropped his tongue, so he kicked his tongue and added.
“Did I say warlock? Rumors have high credibility.”
Father.
The guys who couldn’t speak properly came to their senses and spit out their words.
It was still nonsensical nonsense that seemed to have an empty head.
This time it was a deck.
“Well, then you should go and ask him right away!”
“Five… I?”
“Who is asking if it’s not you?”
“Tell me again. Can I ask you to come?”
“uh… that is… .”
Whoops. Shh.
I roughly wrote the address on a piece of paper next to it and threw it at him.
Deck asked with his eyes wide open.
“What is this?”
“The place where Han Si-hyuk lives.”
“What… What?”
Of course, it’s a fake address because we don’t know Han Si-hyuk’s location, but if a real warlock appears, they’ll get bored without even making a sound.
“Are you going to go and ask?”
“… !”
“Be sure to visit. Understand?”
“my… all the time? directly?”
“I’m curious. Interviews with the professor are always welcome.”
okay?
Well, if it’s almost over.
“Look what, you bastards. Take it and get out.”
back down.
At my word, the guys went wild.
* * *
naval officer.
He even wrote down his address and gave it to me, but the effect of the poster was greater than I expected, so he became a celebrity wherever he went.
Of course, it was like half believers and half non-believers.
That’s why I went out so shamelessly.
To be honest, I didn’t believe it.
The voices of the sailors could be heard from outside the door. Most were questioning the credibility of this case.
“Hey, does that make sense?”
“When we were young, we didn’t even look alike in the first place… The age difference is pretty good.”
“Is that the only problem? a black mage? Is that true?”
“I didn’t think the professor was like that… .”
Arguments came and went, so I ignored them neatly and put the research sample into the magic amplifier and ran it.
After setting up the experiment, Betty senior approached me with a darkened look on her face.
With the start of the class, he returned to work at Professor Ernst’s lab, and Betty, who became a 6th grader, is still stuck in the lab with dark circles down.
“you must be tired. it’s okay?”
“You don’t ask what happened.”
“… I have no interest in gossip. It’s just that kids who don’t know well just pick it up and serve it.”
Betty is a really good person in many ways.
Even talking to me seems to be cautious. Betty-senpai is always cautious and delicate.
To be honest, I’m a shy person, so it took me a year to have a conversation like this.
“Yes, it is. thank you.”
“Yeah, don’t worry too much… Let’s focus on research first!”
Senior Betty laughed softly at my words as she frantically labeled the research samples.
Then, suddenly, something came to mind. It was a topic that I was much more comfortable with than Han Si-hyuk’s poster.
“Oh, but Shiha.”
“yes?”
“Do you have a friend in your grade called Natalie?”
“Are you Natalie?”
Even though Natalie has wide feet, I thought she wouldn’t have a relationship with Betty. I asked with a surprised face at Natalie’s name that came out of nowhere.
They didn’t seem to know each other personally, so what’s going on?
“Oh, it’s no different… My graduation thesis is about artifacts… I asked if I could get support. Do you know where the workshop is?”
oh
The Willows are famous for their artifacts.
“yes. On the square side… It’s not that far away, can I introduce you?”
It’s a place I went to like a meal, so I know the geography.
Betty-senpai thanked her with a face that was moved by even the slightest kindness. It wasn’t that difficult, but I drew a rough sketch and handed it to Betty senior.
“Ask Natalie for details. When it comes to Artifacts, he knows better than I do.”
It’s a very humble thing to say that I made the detox artifact by hand, but it’s also true that no one can match Natalie, at least in the field.
I don’t know what Betty’s graduation thesis was, but Natalie would be very helpful.
I’m also a kid who likes to help other people. If it’s a senior’s job, he’ll be a kid who will step out.
“It’s not a big deal, I’m researching an artifact that can store external magical power… .”
“Ah yes.”
“Even though the feasibility is a bit low, let’s try a principled analysis!”
“Oh, I see.”
Graduation thesis is still a distant topic, so it doesn’t really touch me.
I couldn’t listen to Betty’s words properly because I was looking at the magic amplifier that was running unsteadily while I was riding.
It was then when I was nodding my head roughly and checking the research sample that was almost completed.
Senior Betty fiddled with both hands and spat out words.
“So I mean… Can you help too?”
“yes?”
I just asked without thinking, but Betty sunbae waved her hand in surprise.
“Oh no! I’m sorry that I burdened you for nothing! that… It’s just because you seem to know this place well… I wonder if… .”
Ah, come to think of it, it must be a little difficult for me to ask Natalie directly because of my shy personality.
He was probably crawling outside the door of the workshop and coming back.
In Professor Ernst’s lab, he is a senior who takes care of the chores and helps them. If it’s not too difficult, I’d like to help. For the time being, the time is a little loose.
“I’m fine.”
“jin… really?”
What was the topic earlier?
Artifact… save? So.
“If you don’t feel comfortable asking Natalie, you can ask me.”
tuk.
Fluttering-.
Senior Betty looked up at me with a face wet with emotion. Surprised, he even dropped the paper he was holding in his hand.
“Shiha… You may be an angel… .”
suddenly?
“… It’s the first time I’ve heard it.”
I’ve heard a lot of people say he’s like a warlock.
“Nope! You are an angel!”
With this little thing?
Because that senior also has a rather rustic side.
Betty senior held my hand and thanked me again and again.
“Thank you so much while you are busy.”
“Oh, yes.”
“jin… Really. Thank you so much.”
ah yes
I was so grateful that I didn’t even know where to put my body.
Not like Betty’s senior, a very excited voice poured out words like a rapid-fire gun.
“I almost didn’t graduate because I got the wrong topic on a very difficult subject. I tried to wrap my hair by myself, but I couldn’t come to a conclusion… I don’t have any friends who majored in manufacturing around me… therefore… .”
Senior Betty swallowed her saliva and opened her eyes.
“When I get a draft topic, I’ll ask you first!”
“yes!”
“I will write it within this week. Promise!”
Betty senior, who was smiling brightly and waving her little finger.
At that, I nodded my head and smiled.
“Yes, you can give it slowly.”
A promise to confirm Betty’s graduation thesis.
Actually, it wasn’t that difficult.
Sadly, that promise was not kept.
