I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy chapter 197

74. Everything Melted (2)

The Kingdom of Adolevit, the capital, Tehalan.

This city is not a place that can be said to have a very pleasant atmosphere. Although it was developed as a tourist destination, it was because of the dull and cool weather.

But when I came back from work on the shores of Levian,

A lot has changed for Harlan.

‘..beautiful.’

When Hong Bi-yeon saw Tehalan for the first time, she thought it was beautiful. It used to be a city that only felt like shackles, but it would be such a beautiful city just because the clouds were clearing and the warm sunlight was falling.

or… … It could be that he felt that way because he was being treated differently from before.

“It’s a carriage procession with the princess on it!”

“Stand out!”

“Princess!! Please take a look at this one!”

“One picture, please!”

When rumors spread that the carriage carrying the third princess of Adolevit had entered the capital, the streets were already full of citizens.

The sound of camera shutters overlapped and overlapped, so it didn’t even sound like a noise anymore, and the cheers from other cities on the way to the city were tiring.

On every road leading to Seori Palace, citizens were spread out and cheered for Hong Bi-yeon.

The coast of Levian was not far from the city of Tehalan, so the aftermath of the disaster is here.

It is said to have reached

Even in midsummer, the temperature suddenly drops to below freezing, and the entire sky is colored with red dark clouds, causing red sparks to appear.

Having experienced such a horrific phenomenon, there is no choice but to fully realize what Hong Bi-yeon has done.

The wagon she rode made a large circle around the capital of Tehalan, and slowly entered the palace.

About 500 military bands and honor guards were lined up at the main gate of Seori Palace, and this is really different from before.

It was a different treat.

Because there was no welcome before, to the extent that I don’t even know if Hong Bi-yeon entered the palace or not.

Of course, no matter how great she is, she doesn’t do it unless the queen orders it.

Therefore, this kind of treatment came to Hong Bi-yeon with a very special meaning.

Because it meant that Queen Hong Se-ryu recognized her.

“The third princess is coming!!”

The lion hu who shouted with mana resounded in the heavens and the earth.

Boo-woo!

The music of the military band, which begins with the sound of the trumpet, made her heart flutter.

Hong Bi-yeon, pretending to be as calm and boring as possible, looked out the window. In the future, all these events will become a natural thing for you, so you shouldn’t be blushing.

“Your Majesty is waiting.”

Upon arriving at the palace, the Queen’s guards corps greeted her.

“know.”

When Hong Bi-yeon gave instructions to guide her with a light chin, the SS Corps bowed their heads and led her to the queen’s secret reality.

“Are you here?”

When she arrived at the audience, Se-ryu Hong, who seemed exhausted, greeted her. The dark circles that were not covered by makeup and the piles of papers piled up like a pile of papers alone showed how hard she was.

I made a lot of mistakes, but can I say that I’m lucky that I just ended up like that?

“Sit down.”

If it had been Hong Se-ryu, he wouldn’t have taken his eyes off the documents, but when Hong Bi-yeon came, he put down the pile of documents for a while and then crossed his arms and made eye contact.

“coffee?”

“You know I don’t like coffee, don’t you?”

“… … I didn’t know. I’m sorry.”

After that, for a long time, Hong Se-ryu did not speak, and Hong Bi-yeon just waited. I am not even drinking coffee, so this silence is very awkward.

In the end, it was Hong Se-ryu who raised the white flag first. she sighed and said

“I will express my sincere gratitude for what happened the other day.”

At that word… … Hong Bi-yeon’s heart fluttered for a moment.

I didn’t even dream

No one else, the day Queen Hong Se-ryu bowed her head. Who would have thought that the Queen’s apology would be so easily heard.

“I was wrong. And you made it right.”

“You have controlled the Hwaryeong Flower for the first time in a thousand years, and you have melted the curse of eternal winter on the Levian Coast. and… .”

Se-ryu Hong said firmly.

“I have to admit that I have done something that is not fair. Even in that regard, I would like to express my sincere apologies. Can you accept it?”

You could say how proud you are of the wrong subject, but the Queen must. No matter how wrong he was, the Queen of Adolevit

Because bowing your head to the daemon was degrading.

In that sense, Se-ryu Hong is an accurate sample of the queen who wants to become Hong Bi-yeon.

“Yes. Let me accept it.”

Therefore, Hong Bi-yeon also raised her head and took Hong Se-ryu’s apology with ease.

“okay… … Thank you.”

The queen presented Hong Bi-yeon with a book and a bundle of papers.

“I received formal royal education that I had not received due to my personal feelings.

you will receive I will not put a star on anything. Starting with education, food, bed, even a spoon. So, to compete on an equal footing with the First Princess.”

Finally, you won’t be subjected to this damning discrimination. When Hong Bi-yeon was about to receive the documents, Hong Se-ryu added.

“only.” …

“Before I get this, I have a story I want to tell you.”

Hong Bi-yeon changed her posture again.

It’s the price I’ll get anyway, so I’m in a hurry

Because it just looks cheap.

“yes. Do it.”

“I have received an indelible favor from you. That’s why I’m belatedly doing something embarrassing like this.”

But, said Hong Se-ryu.

“I… … i still hate you This feeling… … It has been engraved in my heart from the moment my daughter died, and I can’t erase it anymore.”

Hong Bi-yeon met the queen’s eyes in a dignified manner. Even though he still says he hates me, I really don’t know anymore.

I didn’t think anything of it.

Whether she hates me or approves of me, it doesn’t really matter now.

“However, I no longer want to be controlled by emotions and make wrong judgments rationally. So, I will tell you one thing I have been keeping a secret.”

“secret?”

Se-ryu Hong spoke dryly, like a person who spoke insignificantly.

“Adolevit’s direct blood relatives must die before they reach the age of 30.”

“••••••ah.”

“And children, like you, who suffered from the talent of fire… … Even going over twenty would be difficult.”

As if pounding his chest with a hammer, a strong vibration spread through his body. But Hong Bi-yeon didn’t even tremble.

Can’t believe it?

no.

Although I didn’t know yet… Because I was vaguely guessing.

“There is only one way to overcome the curse. To become a queen and receive a crown.

That is why all Adolevits in history have fought fiercely. To be king, to survive.”

Se-ryu Hong caressed his crown and murmured in a bitter voice.

“If, like your mother, you are born with a faint power of blood, you could give up all flames and magic to extend your life a little, but that would be painful and dishonorable.”

Is there any reason why a wizard has to give up his magic to live on?

Well.

Even so, Hong Bi-yeon’s mother

I’ve chosen to live anyway.

The reason she did it even though she could no longer be queen.

‘••••••no way.’

In an instant, my heart sank.

She was a mother who was always harsh on herself. Her mother, Eel Hong, who never showed her warm eyes for a single moment and gave me harsh education and corporal punishment in every moment.

she would have known

This terrible curse engraved with Adolevit’s blood.

So, as soon as she realized that she couldn’t become a queen, she felt sorry for her own child.

Because she was hostile to the current king, she thought that there would be no place for herself and her children to stand in Adolevit, and that she would not receive a proper education… … After giving up all his posts and magic as a royal family, he became a professor at Stella.

Hong Bi-yeon grabbed her hair and shut her mouth. Se-ryu Hong looked at her like that, and spit out the words that he wouldn’t be able to say anymore.

“So, I personally don’t want you to be queen.”

“… … Are you saying that again?”

“no. Now I am stupidly swept away by my personal feelings and do not make wrong judgments.”

Hong Se-ryu’s eyes were clearer than ever.

“you… … You will be able to overcome the curse without a crown. If you have succeeded in controlling the Hwaryeong Flower, it would not be impossible to erase the curse that the incarnation of fire directly engraved on your veins.”

It was the first time he had heard of it, so when Hong Bi-yeon did not even respond, Hong Se-ryu shook his head and sighed.

“Still, I wonder what the use of this is. You really want to be a queen, and the second princess doesn’t seem to have any intention of becoming a queen…

“Yes? Wait, what do you mean?”

The second princess, Hong Si-hwa, has no intention of becoming a queen? It can’t be. How much has been hindering me from becoming a queen, that woman.

He even said that he was trying to save his life.

“… … became.”

However, Se-ryu Hong shook his head, saying that he had said something useless, and got up from his seat.

“Take this document and go home. The school holidays are almost over, but I will make sure that I receive a proper education.”

“I see… I… …

The conversation ended there, and Hong Bi-yeon had no choice but to come out of the known reality, full of bewildered doubts.

“Princess. Would you like to go back to Cheongnyeonggung right away?”

The guards approached her and said, Since Goterin hasn’t returned yet, he’s been with them, but it’s still awkward.

“no. Let’s go to introspection for a moment. I have someone to see.”

Hong Bi-yeon thought of Baek Yu-seol, who was staying in Naeseong, thinking that there was nothing to do right now if she had to return to Cheongnyeonggung. By the time he passed the Royal Library and found a private residence where the royals were staying, he had already finished preparing to leave.

“••••••what.”

It was only a small amount of luggage, so all I had to do was empty the dormitory and put a large suitcase on it.

Baek Yoo-seol laughed awkwardly.

“Ah, I was going to tell you in advance, but you look so busy… … . I’m done with my work, so I’ll have to go. I have work to do for the rest of the summer break.”

“I see… …

The ‘work to be dealt with’ that Baek Yu-seol speaks of is something that an ordinary teenage boy can handle.

It’s probably not the kind of simple thing.

Even though there was a huge incident right before him that he didn’t want to go through again, he had to go somewhere and solve something right after waking up.

‘don’t go.’

The words came up to the tip of his tongue, but he couldn’t spit them out.

Still she… … It was because there were too many shortcomings to follow in Baek Yu-seol’s business.

‘… … I’ll be patient.’

Let’s wait yet.

the day I become queen.

When that time comes, I will share everything with Baek Yu-seol.

But.

Hong Bi-yeon, who did not want to wait patiently until then, cautiously told Baek Yu-seol.

“•••later. When you graduate from school, where do you plan to go?”

“uh? Well… … . I never really thought about it.”

“Then, come back to Seori Palace.”

That’s what Hong Bi-yeon’s own way after thinking over and over again… … He said it with great courage.

“At that time, I’ll hire you as a regular knight, not a temporary palace guard. You will become the Queen’s direct personal guard.”

“Queen Se-ryu Hong?”

“no! Queen Hong Bi-yeon!”

… … silence.

When I spit it out through my mouth, I felt like I had said something very shameful and embarrassing, so even that imposing Hong Bi-yeon couldn’t even budge like a person with a mistake.

“haha.”

Baek Yu-seol broke the awkward silence and smiled coolly. Then he said, tying up his backpack with all his might.

“You are the queen’s knight. It’s too much for me, but it’s definitely a glorious place.”

“that••••••

I was going to say something, but Baek Yu-seol finished speaking first.

“But, the time is not yet. I have so many things to do in my life, and I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to handle them all. So, such

When all your worries and worries are resolved… .”

He passed Hong Bi-yeon, and whispered in a small voice that seemed to have a little laugh.

“Then, tell me again. As queen.”

So Baek Yu-seol disappeared, and Hong Bi-yeon stood still, as if nailed to the spot.

It was an exceptionally beautiful evening with the sunset light on the girl’s face.
