254. Party Invite (2)
Oliver helped Child adjust to the Tombstone-Batori.
All I had to do was support my body so that I could move, or talk about things to find improvements.
If that doesn’t mean it doesn’t make sense, then it wasn’t.
In the process, I learned something interesting.
That is, the child controls the quality of the invoice doll, but there is a difference in time.
For example, in the case of a corpse doll without any special abilities, specialties, or characteristics, it can be freely handled as soon as a child enters, whereas
It took a considerable amount of time to create a corpse doll with a variety of abilities, specialties, and characteristics, and its depth.
I’ve felt it a little before, but Bathory’s level was different, so this made it clear.
Quite important information for using the Invoice Doll.
Oliver took that fact in a notebook and tried to guess why.
‘After all, there’s a lot of information on the body, isn’t it? Child digests….’
Although uncertain, Oliver has drawn tentative conclusions.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Now that I have to say it again, Child sometimes used the special skills, movements, and techniques of the mortuary doll more than the original master.An example is that the original ability was amplified by two or three times through cooperation between the Invoice Dolls.
Rather than using technology through the corpse doll as a medium, Child showed closer to learning and digesting the corpse doll’s abilities as his own.
These two look the same, but they are completely different, and in the latter case, Child could dream of infinite possibilities.
The more the Invoice Doll was used, the more the Child could acquire and accumulate various skills and abilities in proportion to it.
Then, naturally, another question arose.
The same question as whether Child will be able to learn new skills through self-cultivation through the corpse doll.
In some cases, it was not necessary to rely solely on the quality of the invoice doll.
Oliver quickly recorded the information, came up with a hypothesis, and wrote a specific research method. so that you can try it out later.
In my mind, I wanted to dig into this issue right away. I had work to do, so I couldn’t.
Because of things like making female warlocks into mortuary dolls, or going back to work in the tower.
“Did you really meet that solver Will for the first time?”
The Life School Tower in the Magic Tower.
There, Oliver was talking face to face with three wizards. Strictly speaking, it was more like a newspaper than a conversation.
“Yes, we met at the Outpost.”
“How did you meet?”
“It happened by accident while I was looking for solutions to accompany me.”
“by chance?”
“Yes.”
Oliver answered briefly.
The three life school wizards, who borrowed Oliver through the formal procedure, looked dissatisfied.
Although something was not clear, he looked at Oliver without saying a word, with a gleam of suspicion that was not enough to speak out.
“········But how did you come up with the idea of hiring a problem solver for the professor’s representative? By any chance, did Kevin do it?”
“No, that was my decision. I’ve heard that the road from Outpost to Holland is dangerous. Professor Kevin and the wizard who helped out at the Outpost branch all said the same thing. I know that there is no problem with the school rules… Is there any problem?”
Oliver asked a question, but he knew better than anyone that there was no problem.
The content of this was clearly written in [Matop’s Rules].
A professor’s representative is a person who has been delegated the authority of the professor. Of course, he was free to use his own discretion and borrow manpower from outside. If there is a problem, just take responsibility.
The three wizards met each other’s eyes and moved on to the next story.
“…is there any way to verify the identity of the solver named Will?”
“The details of that are in the report-”
“-If it’s a report, we read it too. We want to hear from you.”
The answer is a mixture of nervousness and vigilance. Oliver bowed his head.
“sorry······. Since you are active in the Northin community, I think you can check it out there.”
“No Northin community. It’s a very closed place, and all there is is a paranoid slugger. They are just beings who tell lies.”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know more than that.”
Another wizard intervened.
“That is the problem. Why did you hire a fixer without knowing why? How many thieves are there to steal the precious knowledge of the tower? …Is it okay if I asked the Outpost branch to find a fixer?”
“I am sorry for that, too. No one taught me, so I thought I had to hire myself.”
This too was true.
Through portal magic, I was able to hear more about the traffic going to the Outpost, but no one explained anything about safety.
Even the School of Life, who turned to Kevin for help.
In the end, the wizards had no choice but to shut their mouths once again.
If we continued to talk, we would only be embarrassed for each other.
“······ Moving on to the next story.”
“Yes.”
The three life-school wizards asked Oliver in detail about what he had done on the way to Mountain Face and what he had done at the lab.
As if trying to check if there is any manipulated content.
Fortunately, Oliver, who practiced several times with Kevin, answered the report according to the content of the report, and avoided all questions with a deeply trapping nature.
Thanks to this, the doubts of the Life School wizards about Oliver gradually faded.
“········ This is the end.”
Oliver has finished explaining what happened in the lab. Again, there was nothing to sneeze at.
“You really broke the wall and lowered the floor with fire magic?”
“Yes.”
“Well······. I’m not usually a talented person. Have you ever seen anything strange in the lab? Or is the solver touching the world tree?”
“We broke up for a while, so I don’t know everything, but when I was with you, it wasn’t at all. And if it’s weird, what specifically are you talking about?”
“No, nothing.”
The Life School wizards immediately withdrew the question and exchanged stories among themselves.
It didn’t sound good, but it seemed to conclude that there was no problem.
“I heard the story. I’ve asked all of your questions, so please come back.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Oliver gets up from his seat with a respectful greeting. As Kevin said, it ended without any major problems. Now go back to the Elementalist Tower and work again-
“-Wait a minute.”
“Yes?”
Oliver was summoned by a life school wizard who was particularly strict and had deep doubts.
He did not shed the light of doubt until the very end.
“Just one last question.”
“What is it?”
“I heard that your train was attacked by Northin robbers, right?”
“······Yes.”
“And you worked there?”
“ah······. It’s not that great.”
“It’s not that criminals with 30 million bounties aren’t great. I found out that many of the robbers are excellent magicians, so the military also had a hard time… By whom did you train?”
“I’m sorry, but is this a work-related question?”
“It’s not that, but wouldn’t it be misleading to answer?”
“What do you mean by misunderstanding?”
Oliver’s question was asked, but the Life School wizard did not answer.
Because this was too absurd.
Oliver was a benefactor who made a contribution in his own way, no matter what, and the School of Life was a savior with help.
In such a relationship, if I questioned him this excessively, I didn’t know that the School of Life might get a strange look from other people.
Even within the tower, there were forces that kept the School of Life in check.
Even if it was an illegal human experiment, it could be skipped over, but it would have been quite difficult if an affair with a warlock was revealed.
It was an act that would be condemned by wizards.
‘Maybe even with Parteranism….’
Oliver saw the right timing and opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry, but it seems difficult to answer your question. The professor told me not to answer anything outside of work… If Professor Kevin allows it, I will answer it then. Please understand.”
The puzzled Life School wizards nodded their heads when Oliver gave Kevin an excuse first.
Oliver greeted them again and came out of the interrogation room.
Upon stepping out, Oliver was greeted by an extraordinarily clean and spacious hallway and the School of Life students walking along the hallway, who glanced down at Oliver with emotions such as curiosity, displeasure, doubt, and annoyance.
Their self-esteem and exclusivity were far higher than those of other schools.
Oliver, judging that it would not be good to stay long, hurriedly went out of the School of Life Tower.
The place being investigated was not far from the tower’s main gate, so Oliver was able to get out without getting lost.
“By the way, it seems like they’re still strangely connected…”
Oliver came out and murmured as he turned around and saw the deformed cone-shaped tower that was wide at the bottom and narrowed at the top.
As a tower of the School of Life, the design was as unique as the School of Elements, and I wondered if there was any meaning.
“Well······. I don’t know.”
Oliver took his eyes off the School of Life tower and looked at his watch.
It was already late, but it seemed that if I went sooner, I would be able to tidy up. Oliver went straight ahead to do his job.
***
“ah······. Everyone worked hard.”
In the hallway of the Elementalist Tower Magic Combat Training Room, Oliver ran into students who had just left class.
Like Kevin’s other classes, the [Magic Battle Basics] class was pretty tight, so quite a few of the students were in a mess with sweat and tan. One of the dogs had bruises.
On the other hand, there were quite a few clean people who seemed to have done nothing.
‘Did they not participate properly in class this time too?’
Oliver thought as he looked at the people behind the group of students. Most of them were students with poor grades.
“hello. Xenon.”
Yareli, who took the lead, greeted Oliver like a representative. Her training clothes were tattered as usual.
Oliver thanked him for the greeting and stepped aside, and several noting students passed him by, greeting him.
Of course, there were still people like Derek who ignored Oliver, but after Mountain Face, the proportion of people who greeted me increased noticeably, which was quite satisfying.
After the students had passed, Oliver entered the magic battle training room.
Inside the large training room, there was Kevin, who was using his magical powers to clean up the room.
“Did the story go well?”
Kevin asked without looking at Oliver. He noticed Oliver’s existence with the delicate and vast magical powers emitted from his body.
‘Mr. Wallace uses that technique a lot, so should I learn some? Relying on your eyes alone might become a problem later on. Mana consumption might be a bit of a problem…’
Oliver pondered as he recalled the virtuosity of Kevin and Wallace.
“Xenon?”
“Ah, sorry. professor. After thinking about it for a while… It seems to have ended without any problems with the School of Life.”
“okay?”
“Yeah, it didn’t completely erase my doubts, but it did lighten it up a lot. I don’t think there will be any major problems.”
“Right······. Okay.”
Kevin’s reaction was milder than expected.
Oliver’s report was accepted and accepted without any doubt.
“Is that the end of the story?”
“Yes?”
“You said you had a story to tell after you went to the Life School Tower, didn’t you?”
“Ah, thank you for telling me. Other than that, can I ask if you can leave work early this Friday? About two or three in the afternoon.”
“This Friday?”
“Yes, I have a personal business.”
“It’s fun. I have work on Friday too, so I was going to leave work around that time. Do whatever you feel like.”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
“It wasn’t particularly caring. After all, I also have work that day.”
“Still, I am grateful because I am grateful. From now on, I will do the rearranging.”
“done. Because I’m almost done… Can you answer my question instead?”
“A question? Yes, tell me.”
“Did you run into students while I was going out?”
“Yeah, it seems like you taught hard this time too.”
Oliver answered, recalling Derek and Yareli’s messed up training uniforms.
“Do you have any questions or anything to say to me?”
“Can I talk about that?”
“If I ask.”
“Well·······. To be honest, your class is great, but I don’t think the benefits are for everyone.”
Oliver answered, thinking of the relatively clean students.
Kevin, who is strict with his standards as much as he is zealous, taught very hard students such as Yarelia and Derek who had excellent skills and strong will, but, on the contrary, relatively neglected students with insufficient skills or lack of will.
Of course, Oliver didn’t dare criticize it. Oliver was also more talented when teaching the people of the Joseph family, and he focused more on teaching people with strong will.
Kevin nodded as if he was aware of this.
“I saw it right. It’s getting to the middle of class, and I can’t seem to pay attention to each and every student.”
“Since there are dozens of students, I think it is inevitable.”
“It’s sympathetic. Moreover, there is a significant difference in the level of students. So it’s hard to take care of everything. However, it doesn’t make any sense to put off outstanding students. So, I mean, can you help me?”
“Am I?”
“Yeah, I’m asking if you’d like to help me take care of the undergraded students.”
“…is that possible?”
“If I allow it.”
