Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy chapter 256

256 – The Game Of Love (3)

Late evening.

The carriage carrying Theo’s group arrived at the main gate of Ellinia Academy.

People got off the carriage for a moment.

Irene said, stretching her body while making a sound.

“Um, shall we eat something together? “I haven’t eaten anything, so I’m hungry.”

“Is there an open door?”

Alice responded.

Seria said.

“Huh, at this time… Most of the stores are out of last order, but there is one place I know. “It’s near the Faculty of Magic, and although it’s not particularly delicious, it’s still decent enough to eat.”

P.L. Sorted out the situation.

“Then let’s go there. Let’s take this instead of the inconvenient circular carriage. “Everyone okay?”

Everyone nodded their heads except for one.

Piel said to Theo, who did not nod her head.

“Hey, aren’t you going?”

“Yes. “There is someone who urgently needs help with some work.”

“······The woman who contacted me yesterday?”

“Yes.”

Irene asked meaningfully.

“······What’s going on?”

“My senior asked me to help him with his ongoing research. As the circular carriage arrives, I will go there first. Oh, Amy. There is no need to follow. Eat and sleep first. “It might be late.”

After saying that, Theo checked the circular carriage stopped at a nearby stop and walked quickly.

“······.”

The people left behind looked at Theo’s back in silence as this suddenly happened.

It was Piel who broke the silence.

“I don’t think it’s time to have dinner. Right?”

The others also nodded. In particular, Irene’s expression was determined.

Piel boarded her private carriage.

“Get on quickly.”

Others followed suit.

Piel said to her carriage driver.

“Mister, please follow that circular carriage. “Don’t let it show.”

“······Please leave it to me, lady. “I’ll try my best after a long time.”

It is safe to say that the skill of the knights who have been driving carriages for generations in the great Chalon family is considered to be one of only a handful on the entire continent.

Nettlefish──!

The carriage has suddenly become assimilated into the dark night air, powerful but secretive. It started to move smoothly.

* * *

After getting off the circular carriage, I headed straight to the place Sonya told me about.

It was the building where the chairman’s office was located.

‘Sonia’s laboratory is next door to the director’s office.’

Knock, knock, knock──

After arriving, I knocked on the door.

Then a loud crashing sound was heard from inside the door.

Ney, who was tied to his belt, said.

─Hmm. I can feel the huge mana inside. It doesn’t seem to be human, it looks like a magic stone.

I did not stop Ney from speaking. Ney’s voice, which perceives me as an object, cannot be heard by others.

─Is that so, Nei? Can you tell how many people are inside the lump?

─It seems like there is only one person. The footsteps are getting closer.

Just as Ney said, the door eventually opened and Sonya appeared.

With her messy hair and round glasses, she looked like a genius who was clueless about everyday tasks other than those in which she excelled.

“Te, you’re here. Hi?”

“Nice to meet you, Senior Sonya. “You are doing research in this room.”

“Uh, huh. “Would you like to come in first?”

“I understand.”

I followed Sonya into the room.

Magic stones and mechanical fragments were strewn about in every corner of the floor and here and there on the desk. Even clothes and food shells were seen, as if all accommodation and food were provided here.

Nei clicked his tongue.

─There is nothing wrong with it. Just as you said, it seems like the world has really changed. If a grown woman lives like this, who will take her?…

I agreed, so I quietly nodded.

Sonya said, smiling awkwardly.

“Ahahahahaha… It’s a bit dirty, isn’t it? Sorry. I don’t tend to do things like cleaning when I’m doing research. “For no reason, my mind became more violent.”

“I understand, senior. I heard that creators are influenced by their living space more than you might think. “I think it’s the best place if inventions come out well.”

“Thank you. Other people just tell me to clean it up because it’s dirty… Anyway, just wait a moment! “I’ll bring something to test.”

Sonya smiled with a relaxed expression and headed to the desk in her corner.

At that time, Ney asked me.

─Hey. What did that dirty girl say? Judging by his shy smile, it seems like he’s making some excuse for having a dirty room.

To Ney, Sonya’s words must have been strangely interrupted.

─It’s just as you thought.

– If you were neat as much as it was, the men would be in line. Too bad. In some ways, I have a resemblance to you.

─I don’t think that’s the case. I can’t survive even a day in a room this messy.

─Are you saying the party is different? If you were half as considerate to others as you are, women would be lining up. This stupid bastard… You put me in that cold and lonely place for such a long time.

While returning to Ellinia Academy, I placed Ney in the [Subspace bag].

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to sleep at all.

─It doesn’t seem to have much to do with Sonya’s room being dirty.

─Agh, this old guy… Hmm! There’s a dirty girl over there carrying something. This is something I have never seen before. I can feel mana.

At those words, I looked at Sonya.

She was holding in her arms a mechanical device the size of her fist.

“Oh, this is the power engine I mentioned yesterday with the crystal ball. It’s a device that allows you to use magic without using your body’s mana. The primary goal is to be able to use 5-circle high-power magic at least three times while weighing less than 3kg!”

“······Is that so?”

I carefully observed the [External magical power engine].

From the outside, there was nothing particularly special to be seen.

Sonya said.

“Then I will synchronize first. This is the process of recognizing that the user of this power engine is you, Theo. Do you want to show me your arms? “It’s okay anywhere on the body, even if it’s not your arms.”

“My arms are comfortable.”

I held out my left arm.

Sonya rolled up the sleeves of my dress and placed a round patch on her forearm.

Then he handed me a piece of paper full of recipes.

“Would you like to try the magic here? Oh, if interpreting a spell is difficult, tell me! “I tried to write it as simply as possible…”

“It’s [Haste]. “I understand, senior.”

I immediately started casting the magic written in the spell.

It wasn’t that difficult because it was [Haste], A 3rd circle magic.

It is a magic that I have often used with [Magic Cartridge], And my understanding of magic techniques has increased every time I use [Elemental Sword] And [Null Magic].

As Sonya muttered the spell, a blue light appeared in the power engine she was holding.

Sonya, her eyes wide, pushed her face towards me.

“Seo, I think it was successful? Theo. How is it? “Do you think it was cast properly?”

“I guess so. “My arms and legs feel lighter.”

I tried moving my arms and legs around. [Haste] Was definitely cast. My body became lighter than before.

“Now, just a moment! “I’ll take some notes!”

Sonya took out a piece of paper and a pen from her arms, scribbled something on it, and then handed me another piece of magic paper.

“Hey, do you want to try this magic this time?!”

“I understand.”

This time it was the 4th circle magic [Wind barrier].

As before, as she muttered the magic trick, a blue light appeared in the power engine that Sonya was holding.

At the same time, a wind shield was formed blocking my entire upper body.

Sonya had a gloomy expression.

“Hmm, it was a spell that covered the entire body… But the 4th circle magic was cast imperfectly.”

Sonya scribbled something of her own with her pen on a piece of paper in her hand.

After that, I tried a few more spells. As she said, the 4th circle magic was cast unstable.

As if the experiment was over, Sonya bowed her head to me.

“Thank you, Theo. I think I know roughly what the problem was now. “I’m sorry for calling you on my day off.”

“No. If it helped my senior, that’s okay. If you need help again next time, please contact me. “Then I’ll just leave.”

“Uh, huh! I think we’ll probably contact each other again soon. When I finish it, I will gift it to you first, Theo.”

“It is an honor.”

I gave Sonya her nod and prepared to leave her room.

‘Time is tight.’

Starting tomorrow, I have classes again and I have to eat and practice energy before going to bed.

The schedule was quite tight. It was Lee Guk-ju’s lingerie.

At that time, Sonya handed me two of her boxes.

“Ah, that’s right. I can’t say it’s a return gift, but… Take this! It’s a contact crystal ball. “It was made in addition.”

When I received the box and opened it, it was the same contact crystal ball that I and P.L. Had.

“Thank you, senior. “I will write well.”

“Ugh, thank you!”

When I came out of Sonya’s lab.

“······Uh.”

There was a familiar face. It was Luna Flora, the chairman of the board.

Ney let out an exclamation.

─Oh my… I can feel a huge amount of mana. Moreover, I can feel the power of a powerful spirit.

I quickly greeted him.

“Hello, Chairman. “It is an honor to meet you like this.”

“······Uh.”

However, the chairman’s condition was strange.

She didn’t receive a greeting, but looked up at me with her blank face. Her usual cheerful, psychotic appearance was gone, and the look in her eyes seemed like someone whose soul had been lost somewhere.

The chairman came running towards me.

And then,

“Why did you come now…”

He hugged me tightly.
