How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World chapter 15

Chapter 15

There was an unexpected meeting with Leort, but that alone did not interfere with my writing. Rather, he received momentum and continued the story.

‘This is where the Earl of Castlerock is shouting. It is said that the nation is the people.’

There is one famous movie in my past life. The story of a lawyer who desperately protests for the victims of the military regime.

In particular, I can vividly remember seeing the famous scene. It was so immersive that I wondered if it was really acting.

‘As Leort said, I’m going to get a little bit scornful, but…’

Conflict between Zeno, a commoner, and aristocrats, is unavoidable. The faction that originally held a firm grip on the vested interests is extremely wary of someone taking their place. A story that could actually happen.

It doesn’t matter though. As the saying goes about carrots and sticks, it will be okay if you show the good side of aristocrats.

Even if it is a fair criticism, it will be tolerated to some extent. After hearing Leort’s words, I looked for books in the library and found satires directed at the nobility. Although it is a drawback that there is no direct critique.

‘The exterior of the steam locomotive… Let’s just draw a picture. You can draw it in your notebook for practice.’

The episodes in which Zeno has a conflict with the nobles are from the beginning to the middle of volume 8. After that, he goes to the land of the dwarves to rest and read newspapers, and there he meets a geeky dwarf who wants to invent the ‘steam locomotive’.

Xenon helps the geek dwarf invent the geeky dwarf that everyone says is impossible. Since then, there have been various misjudgments and trial and error, but he invents the steam locomotive. Then, the story of Volume 8 ends by suggesting a new path called ‘mechanical engineering’ rather than ‘magic’.

‘Isn’t this a supply wagon?”

There is no need to explain the importance of supply in wars of all ages, no matter the world or the fantasy world. Even in a fantasy world, the army must eat well to advance.

Here, you may ask if it is not necessary to invent the steam locomotive and remove it with magic such as teleport or warp, but it is impossible. This is because the supply method using teleport or warp is extremely inefficient and dangerous magic.

There is no problem in using it for yourself, but problems arise from the moment you move an object other than yourself. It requires a huge amount of mana, and if it fails, it will disintegrate like a grain of sand. I use it only in situations that are important enough to bear such a risk, and other than that, I mostly use a wagon.

‘Except for demons of course. If you look closely, it’s a real fraudulent race.’

One of the reasons why Helium, the country of demons, has become a power that even the Minerva Empire cannot touch is thanks to its incredible transport capabilities. When other countries use wagons to supply supplies, demons use magic to ignore the distance.

This is all thanks to the ability to use magic as if it were breathing. To them, magic is close to the ‘power’ that can be achieved if they imagine it.

Even though I’ve never seen magic before, I think it’s going to be awesome.

‘It’s magic…’

I put the finished manuscript on the edge of the desk and checked the clock. The current time is 10:30. It is better to sleep now, even for tomorrow.

Then, after a quick wash, I threw myself on the bed. The sensation of the fluffy matrix was transmitted down my back.

‘Tomorrow there is only humanities, magic, and… anthropology.’

I have already figured out which major I want to take.

Humanities, Witchcraft, History, Theology, Alchemy, Anthropology, Philosophy, Psychology, Public Administration, Military Studies, International Studies.

There are a total of 11 subjects like this, and if you don’t know anything else, you must have heard of ‘Alchemy’ for the first time. Simply put, it is the chemistry of this world.

Even on Earth, alchemy is called the father of modern chemistry, and although this may be a fantasy world, alchemy has greatly advanced. You don’t have to go far to understand that potions are crafted using alchemy.

‘It’s not as established as chemistry, but it’s still interesting.’

Whether it is an atom or a molecule, it has not been established in detail, but maybe someone will establish it in the distant future. I looked up at the dark ceiling and quietly closed my eyes.

As the full-scale class begins in the future, I am both nervous and looking forward to it. Taking 11 majors already gives me a headache, but I have no choice but to work hard to avoid being paid.

The good news is that it is closer to an absolute evaluation rather than a relative evaluation. If I work hard enough, I can get a full score.

‘Zenon’s biography… I will only write it on weekends for the time being… all…’

Is it because I lie down on the bed? As I fell asleep, my eyelids closed.

Then, in total darkness, I fell asleep as my consciousness fell.

On the next day, I had breakfast with learning and headed straight to the classroom. As I entered the classroom, familiar faces were the first thing that caught my eye.

As everyone knows, it’s Marie, Cecily, and Lina. Seeing each of the beautiful women with outstanding personalities gather and talk about Oh Soon Do-soon, it seemed to shine on its own.

Are all three of them studying humanities together? As I looked around the empty seats, I suddenly noticed something strange.

‘Are there no seats?’

Students were sitting around the three women, both front and back. Until last week, no one was near them, which makes me suspicious. Even more so when you see that there are many empty seats in the front.

I sat down in an empty seat countless times, but the question was not answered, so I turned my head back. And as soon as she turned her head, she made eye contact with Marie, one of the three who were chattering rightly.

“Ah! That’s Isaac.”

As soon as Marie shouted, Cecily and Lina followed and looked at me. I made eye contact with them and greeted them by waving my hand.

“But why doesn’t he sit next to us… What? When was it full?”

“Huh? That’s right.”

As I listened, they seemed to have noticed the surrounding situation only now. I looked at the three people who were puzzled, and suddenly my eyes met the boy sitting to the right of them.

Was his name Jackson? Anyway, from the first day, he’s the guy who put a lot of work on Cecily and Lina. As soon as that guy made eye contact with me, he raised one corner of his mouth.

I could sense the mean smile indeed. That’s what that guy did.

It seems that he was jealous because the women who had given him a face mask are paying attention to me. I don’t know if he recruited the students or if he had known each other from the beginning, but it was very pathetic.

‘Is a faction already formed?’

He said that he was the son of a wealthy countess, so there is a high possibility that he bought it with money.

‘I’m not a kid, what are you doing… No. If you’re 17, you’re a kid.’

I turned my head forward because I didn’t want to get caught up in troublesome things. I want to enjoy a smooth academic life as much as possible.

“Soundbite.”

“yes?”

“hi?”

As soon as I turned my head forward, someone sat down next to me and greeted me warmly.

The white haired beauty, Marie, was looking at me with a smile.

I blinked a couple of times as she sat down next to me. She just sits there. I wonder why she has to sit next to me.

While I was thinking about it, Marie said to me with a look of disappointment.

“Won’t you accept my greetings?”

“…hi.”

Only then did Marie nod her head with satisfaction. I glanced at her softly and then looked back at her.

Cecily narrowed her beautiful brow as if she was uncomfortable somewhere, and Lina next to her had a subtle face.

One last look at Jackson’s side, he was full of annoyance. I felt refreshed because I unintentionally ate shit.

“What have you been doing over the weekend?”

“you?”

“I went here and there with my brother. There were a lot of strange things. What did you do?”

“I read books in the library. There were many interesting books. And I went with my sister to the dungeon to look around.”

“Did you have a sister?”

“Not only my older sister, I also have an older brother.”

“You were the youngest too? Now I see.”

Before class, I was able to have a variety of conversations with Marie. She certainly felt much more comfortable talking to Marie than to anyone else. It was far from authoritarianism and her personality was easy-going, so she could talk comfortably.

Rather, just talking to a beautiful woman with strong characteristics like Marie is enough to be grateful. She also found that she lucked out on the dialogue code as well.

“Isaac said he’d read up to five volumes of Zeno’s biography? I might lend it to you.”

Occasionally, there were stories that were terrifying. Fortunately, it was the expected question, so I was able to answer it with ease.

I was chatting with Marie not knowing how much time had passed, and before I knew it, the professor entered the classroom. Of course, it was Beerus, a professor of humanities.

“Hello, proud students. Then we will start the full-scale class from today.”

When the lecture started, the classroom was filled with applause from the students just like last week.

Shortly thereafter, Professor Beerus coughed as the applause subsided and began the class with his characteristic calm voice.

“Last week I explained about ‘knowledge’. So, what do you learn in class now? It’s simple. Just tell us what kind of knowledge you got from a book or experience. It’s too sudden. Don’t worry, I’ll give you enough time.”

The professor set the time limit to be exactly 40 minutes. In a really short time, the students made a shout, but Professor Beerus neatly ignored it.

“Oh, and I’ll give you extra points if you publish a book or experience other than Zeno’s biography. Of course, I’ll give you extra points if the presentation is great even if it’s related to Zeno’s biography. okay, now…”

start! At the same time as the professor shouted, the students were confused for a while, and they started to organize their thoughts in the notebooks they had prepared or to mumble a little.

I also wrote down the thoughts in my head in a notebook I had prepared in advance. I was confident because I had a lot of books I had read and the knowledge I gained based on them.

“I… Isaac?”

“Well?”

Then Marie quietly called me. I looked at her with her expression on what’s going on.

As I looked, Marie seemed a little hesitant and then asked with a shy smile.

“…can I lend you just one notebook? Just bring a magic pen…”

“If that’s the case.”

I gladly ripped up a piece of paper and gave it to her. When I readily handed her paper, Marie expressed her gratitude with a bright expression on her face.

It was about time to get Marie’s thanks and focus on the notes again.

“Huh? Hey. What is this?”

“Yeah?”

Marie showed me the back of the paper I had handed over. As soon as I saw the picture of her she showed me, I had no choice but to flag myself inside her.

Meanwhile, Marie asked me with her curious eyes.

“Did you draw this by any chance?”

On the back of the page is a steam locomotive that I sketched out for practice yesterday.
