How to Survive at the Academy chapter 4

7 days before school starts (2)

The Roth Taylor family I belonged to is a group of villains that seems like a painting.

Drunk by the high name of the family, he instills in his descendants a sense of vanity and chosen people from generation to generation.

The spirit of the ancestors who knew honor and knew how to give it was gone, and only a sense of privilege remained like a ghost.

In fact, the Roth Taylor family has a big secret.

Gaju Crepin Roth Taylor is a person who studies the magic of eternal life by contracting with Mevula, the evil god of the myth era. In the process, all kinds of inhumane experiments were carried out, and many people were sacrificed for research.

About two years later, the huge plan was discovered by Taylor, the main character of ‘Sylvania’s Failed Swordsman’, and was subjugated at the end of the fight.

The head of the Roth Taylor family, Crepin Roth Taylor. He was the final boss in Act 4 of ‘Sylvania’s Failed Swordsman’.

After that, there’s no need to ask what’s going on with the Roth Taylors. Aren’t the members of the Roth Taylor family portrayed as arrogant and supportive?

In order to arouse the player’s exhilaration, it collapses to the point of being really desperate. All those who actively sympathized with Crepin Rothtailer’s plans were executed, and those who had any involvement were at least imprisoned or punished.

In that respect, it is necessary to reconsider the current situation. It may be hungry, cold, and it may be difficult to live right now, but… Isn’t that the point of severing contact with the Ross Taylor family in advance?

To summarize in one line:

rather good

*

“Are you thanking me? That is hard to believe.”

I jumped up from my seat. In fact, he had been living in the wild for three days, so he was speechless. That’s why the princess is so terrified.

Just a few days ago, when you see this kind of idiot who pretended to be aristocrats and flirt in front of others, it’s refreshing and refreshing, but it’s also sympathetic.

I wanted to delve into that part, but the Princess Fenia I know does not interfere with her private feelings in public judgment. Appealing to emotions was rather counterproductive.

What is the best result?

Whether I attend this school or not, Princess Penia is something that gets attention.

Not only Princess Fenia, but the other students of this Sylvania Academy are all distracted. It’s only my loss if the fact that Ed Roth-Taylor hasn’t been expelled from school after arguing for nothing is made public.

It wouldn’t be strange if I was expelled at any time at the undergraduate level. I am standing on the borderline. You could expel me from the standpoint of a bachelor, but it was better not to stand out until I was in a position where I was hesitant.

So, there was nothing good about being hated by Princess Fenia.

“My treatment will be decided by Princess Fenia. I just follow him.”

He spoke calmly as if nothing happened.

It will only have the opposite effect if you hold on to your ankles and sag and pray because you are in a disappointing position. The more they look cornered and desperate, the easier it is to look down on people, and the more they look like a mess.

Fenia, known as the ‘Princess of Love’, is a human with the most special ‘eyes’ among the characters in Sylvania’s failed sword castle.

That is the human vessel and the eye that discerns its depth.

She has reigned as a princess since she was young, and grew up seeing through the flattery and flattery of countless people, her mouthful words, and wicked sophistry.

Hidden behind the seemingly benevolent character is the eyes of a prince who, at a glance, weighs human nature.

I turned my head and looked towards the burning bonfire. The burnt wood was crushed and its life was exhausted.

You can use ignition magic to light it up again, but because your body hasn’t been properly trained in magic yet, you don’t want to use magic for nothing.

I just went past Princess Fenia and sat down by the fire. Then he stirred the fire with a poker and gathered the firewood that had been scattered in the middle of the fire.

“Have you been here all three days?”

“I just want to live because I want to live.”

policy has been clearly established.

The surest way to not get attention is not to pay attention.

I don’t care what you do to me. Well, if I keep this posture, the other side will also pay attention to me.

The fact that the opponent is the third princess who reigns over the imperial castle is a huge element of anxiety, but compared to kneeling down and crying and screaming, it was a strategy that had the potential to be successful.

don’t mind me

However, this alone is not enough by 2%.

In any case, they plan to report me to the BS and expel me. You have to compromise on that part.

“I heard that every step in the footsteps of royalty is precious, so even if you go out for a short walk, dozens of servants will stick together, and even on a half-day outing, a heavily armed guard will accompany you.”

Bribery and flattery. it is necessary

But there is a problem.

You don’t have anything to bribe, and flattery makes a person look cheap, and there is a high possibility that you will be looked down on in an instant. So, I have no choice but to negotiate.

“How could such a noble Princess Fenia go alone to the forest north of Aken Island, which is said to be dangerous, at this time when the sun goes down. There must be a reason why you have to.”

Even when walking around the campus, her servants cling to each other and serve as a princess of Penia.

Of course, even under the current circumstances, the escort will not be completely absent. However, he must be staring from an unseen place with his hand on his weapon. If I did anything stupid, I’m sure I’d be punished right away.

“So? If you try to hurt me because I don’t have an escort, you will regret it greatly.”

So I can boldly throw those words out.

I smiled.

“Professor Glast’s class placement test is already rumored to be vicious even among our sophomores. You are the one who struggles with students in a novel way every year. It seems that the princess is also conducting the placement test.”

Without even looking at the princess, I continued to speak calmly while poking through the bonfire.

“If you go to the lake in the southeastern part of the forest, there is a small rocky island in the middle. It is the size of only one pine tree growing. That tree is the ‘guardian tree of Merylda’. If you look at the knot hole in the tree, you will have a good harvest.”

“I beg your pardon?”

“You are in a position to search the entire forest anyway, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to stop by at least once.”

It was as if Princess Fenia was staring at me on the back with her ax eyes open. His gaze was very stinging, but he pretended not to care as much as possible.

“You, what do you think? Do you still have revenge?”

“Like I said, I just want to keep going to Sylvania.”

A crackling sound came up with sparks. You just brought the fire back.

“So this is… it could be a bribe I give to the princess, so to speak.”

Finally, he threw the poker in his hand into the fire.

“If you don’t like it… even if you don’t accept it, there’s nothing I can do about it.”

So, Princess Fenia stared at me for a long time, then left, saying that it wasn’t even funny.

Well, in any case, the actions of the princess are out of my hands.

– ‘Let go of this! Don’t you know who I am?! Ed Roth Taylor, the second son of the Roth Taylor family! Get your dirty hands away, pigs! Where are you touching your body!’

– ‘Taley? Ha…. The low-ranking, low-ranking student Bogeoji is still alive.’

– ‘Yes? Woah, Princess? Penny, the princess of charity? I’m sorry, I don’t know!’

– ‘Princess! Defending the likes of Budge Taylor leaves only a blemish on that noble and exalted name. Please condemn him!’

– ‘This… something’s wrong with this! It’s a trap! It’s a trap! That bastard Taylor is a masterpiece of envying me! dirty child! Dirty filthy bastard!’

‘Is it the same person?’

Princess Fenia was walking through the forest, recalling the scene she had seen during the entrance exam.

It reminded me of the vanity aristocrat who tried to kick out the failing student Taylor’s test paper.

She was such an ugly and pathetic human being that there was no need to show her unique ‘insight’. He was an arrogant and ungrateful man by anyone looking at him pretending to be.

A person who stands before power and becomes cruel in front of the weak. When she first hid her identity, she was rude even to Princess Fenia herself.

I couldn’t leave such a person in Sylvania. So, Princess Penia moved directly.

Princess Fenia was a student, but even a bachelor couldn’t ignore her opinion. Such was the position of the royal family.

It has been three days since the evil deeds were exposed and excommunicated from the family.

‘Talking Poomsae has become very calm.’

In fact, three days may be enough time to reflect on the self and change people. Actually, I didn’t have time to worry about that.

The issue I need to focus on right now is the placement test.

A magic orb search test by Professor Glast, who is famous as the evil professor of the Ministry of Magic.

It was a test to find the magic marbles scattered all over the northern forest and return to the gallows wing. The test, which started after lunchtime, continued until the sun was almost setting.

From noblemtl.com

Most of the 310 freshmen in the Ministry of Magic… About 290 students have already returned to the faculty building in search of the magic marble.

At first, more than half of the students returned to find the marble within an hour of the start of the test.

Few students remained in the northern forest until the sun went down.

In fact, if it were a magic ball, even Princess Fenia found it right away. If only the basic level of magic detection was possible, it could be found.

Among the leaves, near piles of dirt, under a small wooden bench, I could find enough magic marbles in various places.

But something was a bit odd.

The number of magic marbles is greater than the number of students. Beyond more levels, it seems to be several times as much.

No matter how easy it was, it was the first test I had to take after entering the school. Professor Glast, who is famous for being a bad professor, was too kind for an exam.

Clearly, there is some hidden intention. That fact never left my head.

From noblemtl.com

Most of the students assumed that it was ‘first-come-first-served basis’ and quickly returned to the faculty building.

Even the students who thought that it would not be a first-come-first-served basis, returned without any harvest when the sun was setting. Quantity rather than quality, it was a spectacle to see them go back with a bunch of magic marbles they found.

The moon was already in the sky.

Nevertheless, Princess Fenia did not return to the gallows building.

I was constantly reminded that there was something hidden in this test.

As I walked and walked like that, I came to the lake.

I saw the rocky island that Ed Roth Taylor mentioned.

A pine tree in the middle of the lake is lit by the moonlight with a mysterious atmosphere. Ed Roth-Taylor called it “the guardian tree of Merylda.”

“Hmm…”

Princess Penia seemed to be thinking for a while with her chin resting, but then she gathered her magic power at the tip of her toes.

‘Water Walk’

It was a magic that consumed a lot of mana, allowing him to walk on the surface of the water for a while. The magic efficiency is very bad, so it is difficult to maintain for a long time, so there is no great practicality in battle.

However, in this case, there is an advantage that the body can cross the water without getting wet.

Princess Fenia, walking slowly to reach the rocky island, noticed that there was something embedded in the knot of the tree.

From noblemtl.com

Maybe Ed Roth-Taylor, who had a vengeance, had set up a trap.

If you do something like that against the princess of mercy, it won’t end well. Ed Roth-Taylor knows that.

There was nothing wrong with being careful though. The princess paid the utmost attention and slowly approached the old tree.

“Magic Orb…? But the color is different…”

A golden bead was embedded in it and it was shining softly.

Princess Penia tilted her head.

“It’s an unusual design… it’s a golden glow, but… nothing else…”

I tried to detect magic, just in case, but the quantum body of magic was also very insignificant. The fact that it contained magical power itself was hard to notice.

“Is it something of value?”

From noblemtl.com

Maybe if I resell it, I can make money. I thought about it, but the value of things in front of the princess doesn’t mean much.

“Anyway… it looks like something that means something…”

The princess swept up her platinum blonde hair and lowered her posture. This is because well-maintained hair can be washed away on the dirt floor.

The princess squatted and looked at the marbles embedded in the tree, and thought about whether or not to just take them.

“It can’t be.”

The marble was discovered because Ed Roth-Taylor gave him the location.

It was not discovered by the princess herself. Therefore, her pride did not allow her to take this marble.

Princess Fenia decided to leave the lake as it is.

It is a shame to pass an exam in a dishonest way. Because he was well aware of that.
