I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius chapter 93

93 – Conqueror

Renovation of Young Ji-min.

This is an idea I got from Enya’s words accidentally, but the more I think about it, the more groundbreaking this idea becomes.

If you upgrade the workers in the first place, the work efficiency increases ridiculously.

‘Let’s move forward now!’

Something fun and exciting comes to mind, but is there any reason to turn it down?

I went straight to Elena and told her that I had chosen the territory.

This is the territory of Arjie, which is rich in mines.

It is an optimal territory for building factories and securing coal.

“Arziega’s territory… It’s not a bad choice. But have you decided who to choose as your guardian?”

However, there was one more thing left to do.

Choosing a guardian to help run the estate.

This is the imperial family’s intention to test my perspective and political philosophy.

Depending on who you choose as your guardian, you will be able to figure out the approximate power structure I draw.

“I’ll think about it for a moment.”

I thought about it.

Who should I choose as my guardian?

‘·····Elmar family.’

As a result, the Elmar family seemed suitable.

This is because I do not want the power structure of the empire to lean to one side.

To achieve parallel power, you must choose the Elmar family, which is considered the weakest among the archduchys.

Because Adela chose a commoner as her husband, she does not have a strong support base.

‘Besides, there is no possibility of a marriage alliance.’

Also, among the Elmar family, the only person who is fully married is Lucas.

Lucas’s mother, Adela, was an only child, so she had no cousins to offer for a marriage alliance.

So, since it is not ‘choosing the Elmar family as guardian = marriage alliance’, I am not a sold-out man.

This still leaves room for other families to target.

“Master. “As my guardian, I choose Lord Adela of Elmarga.”

So I told Elena what I thought.

Elena thought about the meaning of my choice for a moment, then she raised the corners of her mouth and said,

“Are you trying to maintain balance? If you go to Elmar, it will only mean a temporary alliance.”

“That’s the way it is.”

“hehehehe. He’s my disciple, but he’s clever? “I will form a relationship with the Archduchy, but I will still leave room for it.”

“It is thanks to my teacher’s teachings.”

“Phew. I’m not that good at math. “Because I’m an emotional person.”

Elena said that and raised her body.

He then left his post, saying he would discuss it with the princess and report it to her imperial family.

···Now it is time to pioneer my territory.

The news that Edgar had chosen Adela Elmar as her guardian spread widely throughout the empire.

According to this, each noble reacted differently.

“You used your brain quite a bit.”

First of all, Adrian Graham, King of the North, was impressed by Ed’s behavior.

This is because the pendulum of balance did not tilt significantly by choosing Adela.

This was about maintaining neutrality but increasing one’s own value.

A man who has Queen Gong of the East as his guardian, but still has no marriage partner.

He was truly a man of ridiculous value.

Face, height, brain, ability, reputation, wealth, connections.

He was an SSS-level groom who lacked nothing.

Every noble in the empire will still drool over Ed.

“I… Was too hasty.”

On the other hand, Grand Duke Ileiya Cruel of the West was holding his forehead.

When he met Ed, he couldn’t help but think that if he had appealed to him more actively, he might have chosen him as his guardian.

“···It was a mistake.”

I underestimated Ed’s value too much.

It would have been better if he had waited a little longer and acted more carefully.

He was the first to approach at the best time, but what he did was the worst.

Not only did he urge her to keep a reasonable distance from Enya, but he also made an outrageous statement that if he had any intention of becoming involved with Enya, he would bring her into the family as a male concubine.

To a genius unprecedented in history!

If someone found out that he had said this, it was clear that even Duke Cruel would click his tongue and say he had lost his senses.

“We still have a chance.”

Meanwhile, the Bernhard family of Clare saw this as an opportunity.

This is because the possibility of a marriage alliance is still open.

“······.”

However, the person involved was not really interested.

Claire had a sour expression on her face the whole time Archduke Bernhard was talking about the marriage alliance.

‘I’m not interested.’

Unsurprisingly, Claire did not like Ed.

The only reason I’ve been with him so far is because I find the type of human called Ed interesting and want to observe it.

More than anything, Ed was a typical playboy.

He is kind to every woman who approaches him, but in the end he doesn’t choose any one.

You give the other person enough room to mislead, but in the end, when you try to get closer, you slowly back away.

This was one of the characteristics of typical fishing grounds.

‘But it’s a bit strange to call it a fishing ground.’

However, there were many strange things that made it difficult to confirm that it was a fishing ground.

What is the reason for usually fishing?

Isn’t it a bit of a joke to try to extort someone of the opposite s*x who you don’t want to date, but who is worth your while?

However, in Ed’s case, he helps his opponents rather than extorting them.

With that face and that ability, it’s no wonder he’s already hit on several women, but Ed didn’t even make fun of his body.

I wonder if there are people like that.

‘There’s not a single quirk in her personality.’

Furthermore, Ed’s personality was so perfect.

He was bold but cautious, and although he had many things he was good at, he did not show off.

But when it came time to show his confidence, he was more confident than anyone else.

I felt like a fraud created by God with all the stats.

‘I’m not the type like Lucas…’

Lucas looks perfect on the outside, but inside he is weak.

Claire liked Lucas like that.

He is struggling to somehow hide his weakness.

Claire felt pity for him, and pity developed into a special emotion.

Everyone praised Lucas and called him a perfect man, but to Claire, he was just cute.

‘But Edgar Fix…’

I feel like he was just born that way.

It felt like the design itself was already perfectly designed in the first place.

In particular, after watching the match against Lucas during the first evaluation match, Claire was confident.

Except for Isabella, Edgar Fix is already the strongest cadet in the academy.

And if Ed finds a way to block the Graham family’s mental attacks, Ed will eventually become the strongest cadet.

‘What is Ed’s desire…?’

Claire liked observing people.

That’s why I liked Enya, who was the most immature in personality.

It must have a refreshing taste.

Sometimes I want to bite you.

From noble mtl dot com

I also wanted to harass him.

However, when she saw Isabella, her heart throbbed.

He was the nicest kid out of our group, but he completely changed when he took on the mission of the Graham family.

On the other hand, seeing Lucas pretending desperately to show off was both sad and cute.

‘Yes, other kids can see their personality by looking at their desires…’

In this way, Claire was able to understand her personality through the desires of others.

Enya, who has lived a life of self-importance, continues to desire to be the best.

Isabella’s desire to fulfill the destiny of the Graham family.

Lucas has a desire to hide his weakness.

In this way, a purpose arises according to desire, the neural network is reorganized to achieve the purpose, and the neural network becomes its own personality.

Hasn’t the desire to see through oneself and others developed into a unique voyeuristic personality?

‘But what about Edgar Fix?’

I don’t know.

What is his desire?

What kind of desire do you have that makes you look so perfect in every way?

“Hmm…”

Claire’s worries deepened again today.

[Jack Dionel]

Lucas was facing his father’s epitaph for the first time in his life.

It is the name of the person who created his other half, but Lucas had never once wondered about it.

This is because he lived with a sense of inferiority towards commoner blood for a long time.

“Honey, I’m sorry it took me so long. Looks good, right? “He is our son.”

At that time, Adela introduced Lucas to her husband’s grave.

Without anyone asking her to do so, she knelt down in front of her grave and folded her hands respectfully.

Lucas looked at his mother with complicated feelings, then opened her mouth.

“Mother. This may be presumptuous, but could you please stand up? “Isn’t your mother the head of the family?”

Lucas followed Adela to accept his roots.

However, Lucas was always uncomfortable with his mother’s attitude.

Although she was her husband, her mother was the Empress of the East and the head of the Elmar family.

But such a person is kneeling in front of a commoner’s grave and folding his hands respectfully.

It was inevitable that Lucas, who respected his mother deep in his bones, would feel uncomfortable.

“Lucas.”

At that time, Adela called Lucas in a soft voice.

She was still kneeling in front of her husband’s grave.

“You know. “Everyone in the world criticized your father.”

“······.”

Lucas suddenly remembered his childhood.

A time when I was teased for being the child of a rapist.

In those days, everyone criticized Adela’s husband.

Adela was once one of the most beautiful women in the empire, so those who fantasized about her insulted her dead husband.

There were all kinds of baseless rumors floating around about him being a rapist, a murderer, a snub nose, a chin, etc.

“If not me, who will support her husband? I just feel sad. “If Lee had survived and returned with me, she would not have suffered such humiliation.”

The mother seems to be drawing the past with sad eyes.

However, even after listening to Adela’s explanation, Lucas still felt uncomfortable inside.

Is it because I did not acknowledge my father, who was a commoner, for a long time?

‘····No.’

No.

This is because the hierarchy is wrong.

His father is just a mercenary who was lucky enough to fall into the eyes of his mother, and his mother is the owner of the Grand Duke’s family.

I don’t understand why the owner is kneeling in front of the mercenary’s grave.

“hehehehe. “You look unconvinced.”

At that time, Adela looked back at Lucas and said that.

Her mother’s eyes seemed to understand her own feelings.

Soon, Lucas revealed his honest feelings.

“···Isn’t there definitely a noble law and common sense? If other nobles see my mother… They might say something. Because her mother’s status and authority are absolute. “Isn’t she the queen of the East?”

Adela Elmar.

An empress who is respected by nobles in the eastern region.

Lucas could not tolerate such an empress kneeling in front of the grave of a mere mercenary and folding her hands together respectfully.

Soon Adela answered.

“hehehehe, it looks like you’re uncomfortable putting me down.”

“····Yes.”

Lucas admired her mother.

Not only did she serve as a mother, but Adela Elmar was also an outstanding magician as an individual, and was also a great monarch who led her family.

“But Lucas, this is correct. “To this mother, your father is heaven.”

“······?”

However, she said that her mother was a commoner and her father was a commoner.

Adela said, looking at Lucas with a blank expression.

“The reason I was able to become complete is because your father’s philosophy and beliefs took root within me. “I respected him and wanted to be by his side as much as possible.”

“······.”

“To create an ideal family, a wife must obey her husband and do her best to fulfill her aspirations. If her wife is reluctant to play that role, it is a sign that she has chosen the wrong person to be her husband. “You don’t have eyes for men.”

Lucas froze.

I can’t believe that her mother, that great empress, was such an obedient woman.

“So Lucas. This mom found the right person to be her husband. She continues to obey her husband’s will and beliefs to this day. Your father is my husband. So, comments disparaging your father are no different from an insult to me.”

Lucas nodded her head.

I was able to clearly see how firm my mother’s faith in my father was.

“Lucas, men are conquerors. And if he is a real man, he should be able to conquer everything he wants in any woman. Body, mind, spirit. “She is everything.”

Lucas felt distant.

The more I listened to my mother, the more I realized that my father was not just a commoner.

‘Edgar Fix·····.’

And Lucas thought of Ed.

This is because the conqueror that my mother talks about is completely identical to Ed.

As proof, Enya was completely conquered by Ed.

Don’t you just talk about Ed all day long, using strange terms like ‘entropy’ and ‘quantum jump’ that you learned from him?

This is proof that your mind has been completely stained by him.

“···Then, is Edgar Fix also a conqueror?”

However, Lucas was curious about his mother’s thoughts.

Today I heard that Ed chose her mother as her guardian, and that’s because I’m worried.

“······He is also a conqueror. Although he is young, the spirit inside him is extraordinary. There are probably many women who want to be conquered on their own. So keep him close. “It will definitely be a good stimulus for you.”

Adella smiles, saying it will be a good stimulus.

However, Lucas was stimulated in a strange way rather than a good way.

I keep getting anxious about what will happen if Ed and my mother get closer.

***

That night.

Lucas had a strange dream.

I dream of my mother, who still retains the beauty of her 20s, remarrying Ed and living a newlywed life.

-Father…& Are you here?

In the dream, my mother was greeting Ed.

He also sat on his knees and folded his hands together politely.

-Is Lucas asleep?

-hehehehe. I just checked it out&

The mother continued speaking obliquely as she took off Ed’s coat and hung it on her hanger.

Thump. Thud. Thud. Her heart was racing.

I was breaking into a cold sweat and my back was wet.

-You have a lot of muscle tension. I’ll let you go &

-hahahaha. Please.

The water level began to rise.

I felt nauseous, as if I was going to throw up at any moment.

What kind of strange dream is this?

“Oh, no!!!”

In the end, Lucas woke up from his dream.

It was a physiologically unbearable sight to see the secret images of my family in a dream.

“hahahaha… Such a sh*t dream.”

Lucas wiped his cold sweat and forced a smile.

There is no way such a ridiculous thing could happen.

“It’s just a dream…”

Lucas dismissed it as just a dream and went back to bed.

But for some reason, I couldn’t sleep until the next day.

***

Currently, I am in the Arji territory.

To preview the territory where I will be living.

“There is no need to reveal your face.”

However, I will not show my face.

Looking around this place as a new lord and looking around as just a passerby are two different things.

I plan to find out what the reality of this place is like from Young Ji-min’s perspective.

“Then let’s go!”

First, I plan to stop by the red light district.
