Academy’s Genius Tamer Episode 224
It’s only been a week, but a lot has changed.
Sepia said while looking down at the plain below the wide open Audrey Mountains.
“It was said that Castica was on the side of the emperor. Ah, now that the emperor is gone, should I call him a prince?”
While staying here, it was completely cut off from the outside world.
So the fact that the emperor died, a new emperor took the throne, and the Castilian family supported the new emperor… .
Even Han Si-hyuk was shocked to hear it.
“The world is shaking.”
Han Si-hyuk frowned and muttered.
Even though the culprit was right next to me right now, it was a fact that I still couldn’t feel.
Han Si-hyuk looked back at Sepia, who was always smiling brightly, as always. For the past few months, like it or not, I’ve been stuck with her.
I heard the story of her life,
heard the beliefs.
I didn’t understand all of that, but…
Sepia, she herself was finally able to understand.
“… .”
The two looked out the window without saying a word for a long time.
It was because they had a foreboding that the two of them would also be swept away by the waves of this world that were churning just like Han Si-hyuk said.
Sepia was the first to break the silence.
“Mr. Han Si-hyuk.”
What I didn’t want to say so much, I had to say today.
Before the situation became more irreversible, Sepia was thinking of letting Han Si-hyuk go.
Sepia struggled to open her mouth.
“Abadon will start a war.”
Prophet Han Si-hyuk must have had a foreboding from the beginning.
There’s no way he wasn’t aware of the fortunes that permeated the entire land.
Her eyes, as if not very surprised, looked back at Sepia.
Han Si-hyuk picked up the teacup without answering.
It’s a really casual look.
While Han Si-hyuk calmly took a sip of tea, Sepia clenched her lower lip.
“A lot of people will die… It could be me or it could be you.”
Such is the sin that Abaddon would commit.
And, sepia also cannot escape from that sin.
I had no intention of leaving.
Because I was sure I wouldn’t regret it.
However.
I hoped that even Han Si-hyuk would not walk that path.
‘I’m sure I can’t stand it.’
Abaddon will always try to use Han Si-hyuk to catch Han Si-ha. And Han Si-hyuk, whom he knows, will not be able to withstand the situation and will suffer.
Since he couldn’t bear to see him, Sepia tried her best to hide Han Si-hyuk.
To a place Abaddon cannot find.
But, to a place you can’t even see yourself.
In the future, Han Si-hyuk will not be able to be together.
Sepia believed this breakup was the right choice.
“Han Si-hyuk, I’ll give you one last chance.”
I brought it myself, so I’ll send it to you.
Sepia parted her lips that did not fall.
“Leave me.”
Because it seems like I’ll catch up on the road after more time.
Then it will be really irreversible.
before it’s too late.
when you send it.
I wanted you to leave me, but
Han Si-hyuk didn’t even move.
“why… Are you doing that?”
Sepia slowly raised her head and looked up at Han Si-hyuk.
His eyes were shining sadly.
“Maybe it’s already too late.”
Han Si-hyuk smiled bitterly and added.
“… I think so.”
* * *
A small study in the basement of the Audrey Mountains.
The library that Sepia made for Han Si-hyuk was a space that made me laugh just looking at it because it was so cute.
It is full of books on astrology, Han Si-hyuk’s major, as well as precious books that can’t be found anywhere. Han Si-hyuk slowly wiped the warm bookshelf with his hand.
I’ve already moved three times, and this time I’m going to go far away, so I won’t be visiting this place again.
Han Si-hyuk glanced at the books with eyes full of regret.
Sepia who told me to leave when I could.
However, Han Si-hyuk had already made a decision.
‘It’s going to be punished.’
Han Si-hyuk had no intention of leaving Sepia.
I didn’t mean to be with them, but, as always, things don’t go the way I thought they would.
Eventually, you will be swept away by the tsunami as well.
While he spent his time locked up here, Si-hyuk Han spent most of his time prophesying.
Sepia would always ask questions with curious eyes.
Naturally, these were the kinds of things that people were curious about.
‘What do you think I will be doing when I die of old age?’
‘I do not know.’
‘Can’t a prophet see such a future?’
‘Because a prophet doesn’t see all the futures.’
It was a lie.
Han Si-hyuk saw the future of Sepia and saw the future of Han Si-ha.
I guessed my future.
I’ve read too many sad futures.
So, at some point, I gave up reading the meaning of the stars.
I covered it up because it was a future I didn’t want to see.
“It has already accumulated dust.”
Han Si-hyuk took out a book from the bookshelf.
It was an introduction to astrology that felt for a long time.
When I first learned astrology,
So, this is the book I always carried around my side during my first year at Ardel Academy.
The original is not in my hands now, but Sepia has been struggling to find the out-of-print book.
Even if it means throwing away all the books.
I wanted to keep this book, which I once wore to the point that it was tattered.
Han Si-hyuk left the study with an introductory astrology book in the box.
There was one last person I had to meet.
* * *
The coronation ceremony was hasty, and Han Tae-soo became a key figure to assist the emperor.
It has never been a smooth journey.
The situation where the ministers who betrayed the emperor do not know where they are.
Han Tae-soo selected those who could be trusted with his seasoned eyes.
His sober determination shined in his worst moments.
Han Tae-soo caught the ministers who had colluded with the Warlock one by one.
Executing the rebels and cleaning up the palace was done in a snap so that Marcel could regain authority.
Although the interior of the Imperial Palace was still chaotic, the Castika family provided a strong backbone for the Imperial Family.
The Arkenent family also actively empowered them.
and… .
I was also busy at the same time.
As the school closure order was issued at Ardel Academy, students were scrutinized.
Meanwhile, Marcel, who had been crowned emperor, came looking for me as if eating.
Who knew it would be like this
“Lee Han!”
I raised my hand as I found Lee Han walking out of the emperor’s audience like a zombie. It was the same with that guy who suffered and died.
The two of us slept side by side for three full days and nights.
Lee Han, who was always full of fighting, also had his shoulders drooping today.
After receiving a report that there was a group of people revolting, he went down to the countryside, but today he came up and went down again.
I stuck my tongue out on the hellish schedule.
Since the useful people of the Imperial Palace disappeared one after another, this was the only way to find a place to trust.
Juniors who went to the same school and had outstanding abilities.
That’s why it’s me and Lee Han, who are full-fledged.
“Isn’t it too much to treat children humanly even if there are no useful people?”
“You bastard… Be careful with your words in front of the audience.”
“Because our age is objectively right for a kid?”
“… .”
Of course, the prince is also a child.
It is deplorable to leave the country to an 18-year-old.
Still, he seems to be working hard while pouring coffee.
Unfortunately, the war will not be stopped.
Not because Marcel was incompetent, but because it was an event that could not be prevented in terms of development.
The imperial power was already weakened as it weakened, and rebellions large and small were taking place everywhere.
It is different from a rebellion caused by the fact that it is difficult to make a living.
Most of them are organized rebellions caused by warlocks who have infiltrated various parts of the province, and even if they are suppressed strongly, there are bound to be limits.
But what do you do?
Even if it’s a shovel, I have no choice but to try my best to block it.
It’s killing time.
I had no idea how long I could last.
“Tomorrow I plan to go to Arkenent.”
“Isn’t the Count already holding onto it?”
“I guess it’s still noisy.”
Now, movement could be seen even in the Arkenent and Castika Territories, which became the core of the empire, so the seriousness of the situation could not be overstated.
I must have been busy, but I held on to it too much.
I tapped Lee Han on the shoulder and spat out a word.
“Go in. I’ll go with Adela tomorrow too.”
“Uh, I’ll tell Solia.”
“Yeah, good job.”
I too had a lot of work to do, so I had to move fast.
Send Lee Han first in such a hurry.
I was about to stop by the Emperor’s audience, but I changed my route.
“ah.”
It was because I remembered the things I had left behind in the dormitory.
“I should have brought a sword.”
The family heirloom handed over to Han Tae-soo.
I left the sword of the earth in the dormitory.
Although the academy was temporarily closed, most of the luggage was still in the dormitory.
It’s not something you can use right away, but you never know what might happen, so you’d better get it first.
It’s annoying, but… .
It was not far from the Imperial Palace and Ardel Academy.
“let’s go.”
I immediately packed my bags and headed to Ardel Academy.
* * *
The inside of Ardel Academy was supremely quiet.
It seems to be quieter than the program and immediately after the riot.
The hallway filled with so many students was empty after the school closure was issued, and the number of students remaining in the dormitory was unparalleled compared to before.
Oddly enough, I stopped by the dorm room and didn’t see anyone on the way down.
It’s not bad because it’s quiet.
I grabbed my sword and went down the stairs at high speed.
So, I reached the first floor in about a month.
I thought I wouldn’t come out without seeing a single person.
It was the moment when I was about to move to the place where the carriage was.
I stopped on the spot with a strong feeling.
“… .”
I felt a gaze from somewhere.
Instinctively, his hand turned towards the staff of the waist dance.
I thought that no matter how many schools were closed, there would be no crazy people attacking in the middle of the Academy Stadium.
At the time when the idea of killing the emperor in the imperial palace was not at all impossible.
A black shadow appeared from behind the building.
“ah.”
His face was so familiar, he was speechless.
I took a step back.
A face I thought I’d see you again someday, but I didn’t expect to see you here.
Han Si-hyuk was standing there.
After leaving the academy as if to run away like that, it didn’t seem like it was too hard for her to turn around.
I was worried.
I’m glad I’m alive
“… Why are you here?”
Han Si-hyuk’s face was distorted.
“I think it’s been a while since we met. Is that your first question?”
“… .”
This is my impression of that bold statement.
“Are you crazy?”
Dare to say where this is!
You’re wanted!
