How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World chapter 6

Chapter 6

“My name is Marie. Marie Hausen Requilis. You with red hair?”

The white haired girl, Marie, introduced herself as she put her buttocks next to me. Until recently, she had been playing drums and jogging by herself, but now she is friendly again.

He probably had a temperament, but yesterday’s incident was a misunderstanding, so his personality itself didn’t look bad. Anyway, she introduced herself first, so I should too.

I looked at her smiling face without saying a word, then opened my mouth with a calm voice.

“Isaac Ducker Michelle.”

“Ducer Michel? As expected, he was the son of a nobleman.”

“You look like a noble too.”

“That’s right. It’s the daughter of the Rechilis family. Heh.”

I didn’t ask. As I thought to myself, Marie gave her a triumphant response, raising her chin. She seems to be proud of her family.

By the way, it’s the Rechilis family. He was neither a count nor a marquise, but a duke with the second highest status right after the emperor.

I am also well aware of how famous the Duke of Requilis is. When he was educated by his mother in his old days, he even learned the history of the Minerva Empire, so it is only natural to know.

Anyway, to explain the Duke of Requilis, it is one of the achievements of the founding of the Minerva Empire. Moreover, he has practiced ‘Noblesse Oblige’ since ancient times, and has a very good reputation among the Minerva people.

Of course, there are occasions when a bastard appears, but if caught, the family register is broken and they are expelled.

“It would be great if all nobles were like this.”

The duke after the emperor himself practices noble oblige, but what about other nobles? Unfortunately, that’s not the case at all.

Even in a previous life, there are many people who abuse power when they have high power, but this is a world where classes exist. There are no smartphones or computers, so it is difficult to leave evidence.

As a result, the aristocrats still discriminate against commoners. Even outright persecution can dispel power.

I glanced at Marie and opened my mouth. I forgot to say politely and respectfully, just in case.

“You were the daughter of the Duke of Requilis. I’m sorry I didn’t know.”

“…just talk nonsense. Because I hate things like that.”

When I use respect, Marie’s pretty face wrinkles. As rumored, he seems to hate authoritarianism.

So I started to write half-words as she wanted. Marie also chattered about how comfortable I was.

“How many books of Xenon’s biography do you have? I only have five.”

“Well…”

Because I have a draft. These words kicked up to her throat, but she barely suppressed them. There is no other comedy like this.

I was trying to figure out what to say, and then I spoke a lie so that she could understand.

“I don’t own it, but I know the story. My mother lent it to me to read.”

“Yeah? Well, there were a lot of people like that. My brother didn’t even lend it to me.”

“Why?”

“He’s a person who hates his stuff. Even his family hates touching his stuff.”

If it’s my older brother, is it the white-haired guy who gently comforted Marie yesterday? I looked at her grunting Marie, and then a question came to mind and I asked her.

“By the way, I heard a bit about what your brother was saying yesterday, but the gang who stocked up on Zeno’s biography was arrested?”

“Huh? I didn’t know… Oh, I don’t know. It’s been caught recently, so it’s going to take some time for the news to appear in the newspaper. Maybe it’ll come out in two days?”

As it is a duke family, the speed of obtaining information was unmatched.

Marie shrugged as if she had read what I was thinking as she looked at me with great eyes. It just seemed like his nose was going to pierce the sky.

“You don’t have to look at me like that. In our family, this is the basic of the basics.”

“Still, it’s amazing. Our house is in a rural area, so the only way to get news is through newspapers.”

“Rural gang? Fuha. You’re funny.”

Drooling-

While chatting with Marie, I heard the sound of the front door of the classroom opening. At the same time as the sound was heard, the noisy lecture hall became silent in an instant.

Touk- Took- Took-

An old man is walking towards the center in front of a blackboard large enough to fill a wall. His hair is a mixture of dull gold and white, and his mustache is nicely grown, but he looks somewhat stubborn.

The attire was exactly what the professors would wear.

“Hmm.”

Finally, the old man standing in the center of the blackboard coughed and looked around the crowd. All the students, including me, waited patiently for his mouth to open.

Eventually, when the old man’s gaze started from the right and went all the way to the left, his heavily closed mouth opened.

“Nice to meet you. Students. My name is Beerus Artristan, the former professor of humanities.”

His voice was quite gentle and relaxed, so it entered my ears one after another. The professor, who introduced him as Beerus, bowed his head, and the students greeted them with applause.

Then, he straightened his back and spoke while maintaining his characteristic relaxed tone.

“First of all, welcome to the Halo Academy, and then to the literature. Especially this year, special people have entered the Halo Academy.”

Then he looked at where Lina and Cecily were, then shifted his gaze to look at Marie. Even if she’s not a princess or a demon princess, Marie is also a duke, so she’s a special person.

“…what do you mean?”

Of course, Marie grunted when she was pointed out. Meanwhile, the professor spoke politely.

“First of all, I will tell you what kind of life you will lead in the future. In literature, you take a common class for two years, but after that, you have to find your own way. Political science and humanities are humanities. From then on, you can choose the path you want.”

I listened to the professor because I had little knowledge of the academy, especially literature. My older brother and older sister were all uneducated, so there was nothing they could teach me.

“So, here’s the question. What should I do if I can’t find my way for two years? Don’t worry. It’s perfectly normal for your age to wander and not find your way. We can wait.”

“… …”

“Most of the people who came into literature are probably because they want ‘knowledge’. It doesn’t matter if you want knowledge without having to find a way.”

So, whether you find your way or not, you can graduate. Will you just get a diploma or go in as an intern?

In fact, in a world close to the Middle Ages, the idea of ​​such an idea is in itself a great level. I clenched my jaw and waited for the professor’s next words.

“Today is the first lesson in history for you, so I will ask you a simple question. What do you think ‘knowledge’ is? If you give a good answer, I will give you extra points.”

The class started at the same time as the first question. As soon as I heard his question, a quote popped into my head.

‘Knowledge is power.’

If this was the Earth, it is one of the sayings that everyone would have heard at least once. But I didn’t raise my hand. Born and raised in Korea, it was very difficult for me to raise my hand and announce.

While I was still, a student raised his hand. Surprisingly, it was Lina.

Professor Beerus looked at Lina as soon as she raised her hand and held out her hand as if standing up.

“My name is… Student Lina. Right?”

“Yes, Professor.”

“What do you think knowledge is, Lina?”

Even the princess of the Minerva Empire was nothing more than a student to the professor. As if Lina didn’t even care about that, she got up from her seat and answered her in her oriole-like voice.

“I think it’s absolutely necessary for people to advance to a higher place.”

“Hmm… please explain in detail.”

When the professor asked for additional explanations, Lina began to bring out explanations one by one as if she had expected it enough.

“From techniques that circulate mana inside the body to magic, aura, and architecture to rebuild civilization. All of this is possible only with knowledge. Without knowledge, people cannot do anything. I think it will take you to a higher place.”

“Very good. Applause everyone.”

Clap clap clap!

When the professor asked for applause, a loud applause filled the classroom. I followed the others, clapping and flicking to the side.

Marie was clapping her hands slowly with a frown on her face. Seeing the corner of her lips raised on one side of her, she has a somewhat dissatisfied face.

“As student Lina said, knowledge can take a person to a higher place. But that’s not the answer I’m looking for. Can anyone explain more concisely here?”

“… …”

When the professor asked again, no one raised their hand. Even so, the princess’s announcement should be abbreviated.

If you make an announcement for nothing and give a strange answer, you will surely get rid of it, and if the professor is satisfied with it, that is a problem. Because it will be taken in several ways.

‘Damn class society.’

I clicked my tongue inward.

Everyone is probably praying that time will pass like this. I’m more afraid of being photographed by other people than disappointing the professor. At least Cecilina Marie should announce it, so the impact will be small.

ugh-

As soon as she thought of that, Cecily, who was sitting next to Lina, carefully raised her hand. Seeing her slumped, she looked unconfident.

Of course, the professor was happy to have a student to present. Professor Beerus opened his mouth with excitement as soon as Cecily raised her hand.

“Oh! Maybe the name…”

“Se, my name is Cecily…”

“Okay. Student Cecily. What do you think knowledge is?”

Contrary to when he spoke confidently, his voice was quite deaf. It is presumed that he has lost confidence because he lacks certainty unlike in his speeches.

“Whoa…”

Cecily looked around and patted her chest as if trying to convince herself. She then rose from her seat and answered in her voice, which regained her confidence.

“I think it is necessary for a person to live as a human being.”

It is truly a demonic answer. Professor Beerus also poked her face and asked if she was interested.

“Can you explain in more detail?”

“Yes. As Lina-sama announced, knowledge is essential for a person to advance to a higher place, but I think it is possible to become that ‘person’ before that. Because it will.”

“That’s a really raw answer. But it’s great. Applause everyone!”

Like Lina, thunderous applause filled the classroom. I looked at the back of Cecily, who hadtily sat down in her seat with a strange expression.

It felt like something touched my heart when she came up with an answer like that, not someone else, but a demon.

“Both students came up with very good answers. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the answer I was hoping for. Do you have any other students to present?”

there could be

After Cecily has announced, there will be no more applicants for the presentation. I can assure you.

I wish it would end like this, but…

“If there are no more students to present, I will nominate them myself.”

After all, the professor was like that in his previous life, and he still tries to eat Big Candy. I lowered my head to avoid eye contact as much as possible.

‘Please don’t take pictures of me. please…’

But the ominous premonition is always true.

“The red-haired student over there? Answer the student.”

I resented my father for giving me red hair for the first time since I was born in this world. It is truly a color that stands out wherever you go.

“Hey, I think the professor is talking about you?”

“…I know. Whoa.”

I muttered fifty thousand double swear words to myself and raised my head. When I raised my head, dozens of eyes were looking straight at me.

In my mind, I wanted to get nervous about what I was looking at, but I got up from my seat, holding it down. As soon as I got up reluctantly, Professor Beerus asked.

“Red-haired student. What’s the student’s name?”

“…My name is Isaac.”

“Yes. Isaac student. What do students think knowledge is?”

What should I answer? I tried to come up with a different answer as much as possible, but only the sayings from my previous life were spinning around in my head.

Now that this has happened, I pretended to be troubled and opened my mouth with the most blunt voice possible.

“…I think it’s power.”

“Ohh.”

what. f**k. What is that exclamation point and why are the eyes shining again?

As I was muttering to myself, the professor asked me in a more excited voice than before.

“Why do you think so? That’s an interesting answer.”

“… …”

As soon as I heard the professor’s question, I looked at the seats where Lina and Cecily were sitting.

A pair of blue eyes and a pair of red eyes are looking straight at me with curiosity. I barely opened my mouth, feeling a surge of anxiety in real time.

“…From time immemorial, knowledge has been widely used to develop civilization. Like how to make a fire, how to farm, how to build a building, and what kind of knowledge is needed to catch monsters. You can see that you have more power than brute force.”

“You summarized Lena’s presentation. So, what do you think of Cecily’s presentation?”

no. This is it.

Either way, the professor’s eyes brightened even more. I sighed inwardly and said as if it was going to be okay.

“…knowledge that can be acquired alone is obviously limited. So it can be extorted through interactions or fights. And being human… cannot be defined by one thing, so I will say it here. “

I didn’t really have anything else to say, so I sat down without delay. At the same time, silence descended into the classroom.

As there was silence, I sensed something unusual and looked at the professor. The professor is looking at me with a look that is impressed by my presentation.

Even if it is different from when Lina and Cecily announced it, their expressions are very different.

Then the professor exclaimed in an excited voice.

“Jeong-mal! That was an absolutely wonderful answer! You said Isaac, right?”

“…By the way.”

“I will give extra points to Isaac student! Please welcome everyone with loud applause!”

Clap clap clap!

“… …”

don’t do this to me f**k.
