I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes chapter 112

112 – older brother

“A golem in the shape of a human! It is the ultimate goal of the magic engineers who study golems, and at the same time, it is a legendary existence that is considered impossible in reality!”

Megan said calmly in a rather serious tone.

It was surprising that Ceylon still had an exclamation mark attached to it.

‘I think the legendary being is you, not Suu.’

Megan’s voice was fine even though she maintains vocalizations like that on a daily basis.

Even if he didn’t use mana or use magic of any kind.

Ceylon wondered if Megan’s vocal chords were several orders of magnitude higher than Suu’s in terms of the mystery itself.

“How can such-… a child! How can it exist! I see it over and over again, but I don’t know!”

Megan, a magic engineer, might not know anything about it, but Ceylon, a warlock, knew to some extent how the golem named Suu existed.

It was black magic.

Even from Ceylon’s point of view, Suu wasn’t just a golem.

It was the result of sacrifice and dedication made by a researcher who had reached a high level in both black magic and magical engineering.

A lot of things.

That meant not only the researcher’s knowledge and effort, but also countless lives.

Black magic, when ‘used’ living beings, was capable of performing miracles that sometimes seemed out of order.

Sue was like that.

Ceylon’s supreme knowledge of black magic tells how many lives were sacrificed to create the existence of Suu.

‘Uh…’

It seemed like a sigh would come out of nowhere.

The number of people sacrificed to make Suu could easily suffice to build a city.

So when Ceylon saw Sue for the first time, he decided to destroy her.

For the countless lives sacrificed to make her.

“master?”

Sue looked at her new master, who was looking at her with a complicated gaze, with a face that lacked emotion—and that’s why it felt innocent.

‘…Yes, what could be wrong with him?’

But Ceylon got his thoughts together.

Come to think of it, nothing was so pointless.

Destroying Suu does not return the lives of those sacrificed to create her, nor does it make them happy.

Rather, it was a waste of their lives.

If it’s really for their lives, wouldn’t it be right to make Suu as meaningful as possible?

Why aren’t there words that often come up when looking at creative works?

‘As much as they kill – no, let them live.’

Cooperate with Megan’s research to contribute to the development of magical engineering.

In addition, in case of emergency, it defeats the villains and makes the heroes into guardians.

‘Is this right.’

Ceylon, who decided to treat Sue, opened her mouth.

“Suw?”

“Yes, master.”

“From now on, would you fully cooperate with Professor Megan’s research while living with Professor Megan?”

“With this woman?”

Sue put on an expressionless yet disapproving expression.

Megan looked at them with twinkling eyes.

“Who is the master?”

“huh?”

“Are you doing the same, Master? That study?”

“hahahaha, unfortunately, I’m new to magic engineering – I don’t think I’ll be there. But don’t worry, Ms. Suu. As you can see, Professor Megan is kind and charming. If you stay with Professor Megan, you won’t find anything unpleasant or boring. There won’t be.”

“Ceylon-kun…!”

Red-haired beauty with red-rimmed glasses. Megan was an attractive woman who created an intelligent atmosphere in terms of appearance alone.

When it comes to looks alone.

His speech and behavior are not enough to be expressed with the word “strong,” and his eccentric personality, not even paying attention to anything other than magic engineering.

Many men fell in love with Megan’s appearance and approached her, but they soon showed a tired look and left on their own.

But look at this cadet now.

Far from showing any sign of boredom, his demeanor was consistently polite and gentlemanly.

That aspect was highlighted once when he willingly followed his unreasonable request, and it was properly imprinted when he persuaded Suu the other day.

Suurani means Professor Megan’s daughter.

How can you be so caring and witty?

And— hard to recognize, obscured by that intensely bewildered air, but her appearance was also very cute.

The eyes of the eccentric magic engineer, who had little interest in anything other than magic engineering, shone like a hawk.

“Suu just said it right! Are you by any chance not interested in magic engineering!?”

“Uh… Professor Megan? I’m in the swordsmanship club?”

“hahahaha! If that’s the case, don’t worry! I’ll take responsibility and make you a great magic engineer! Suu, you, and me. The three of us are creating the future of magic engineering in the laboratory! How is it!? Isn’t it cool! ?”

In fact, Megan’s words are no different from saying that she wants to live in the lab.

Ceylon said Megan’s words, ‘You! Become a graduate student!’

“It’s a really attractive proposal, but it’s an undeserved offer for me, so I’ll be grateful for it.”

“Um! You look cute when you’re shy! It’s too much! There’s nothing to be embarrassed about! Well, there’s no way! If you change your mind, come visit the lab anytime! My lab will always be open to you! You can always Enter the lab and remember that you can become a magic engineer!”

what?

Are you saying that if you come back to the lab, then you will be kidnapped to graduate school?

In a different sense, Ceylon decided to make sure to remember Megan’s words.

“I hate it without you, master.”

Sue said then.

“hahahaha, Suu. I don’t think anything will change much just because I’m there, right?”

“But. I don’t like it without Master.”

The most valuable use of Su’s existence was to have her help with Megan’s research.

Ceylon’s thoughts were firm. He said firmly to Sue.

“Sue, stay with Professor Megan and help with her research. This is an order.”

“Order. Okay. Master’s order. I’ll follow.”

Suu simply nodded.

If that expressionless face looks sad, is it because of the mood?

“…”

Ceylon’s head got complicated.

master.

It literally felt like the owner was giving orders to the girl.

wrong.

this is not a girl

it’s a golem

I tried to convince myself like that, but it didn’t work out.

Is it really right to treat her as a golem and subjugate her life to a researcher and a laboratory?

“Ceylon-kun…!?”

Megan looked at him with a complicated expression, probably thinking the same thing.

“Hmm… Miss Suu?”

“Yes, master.”

“Assuming there is no order from me. What would you like to do Miss Suu?”

“…”

Sue closed her mouth at Ceylon’s words, but after a while opened her mouth again.

“I want to go around with the owner. It’s stuffy here.”

“…!”

Megan’s eyes widened at Su’s reply.

For some reason, Sue was prioritizing Ceylon’s orders.

The golem was a mechanical device that operated according to input values.

I have watched Suu’s actions.

For some reason, Megan wondered if the command to ‘follow Ceylon’s command’ had been entered into her.

thus.

If Ceylon asked Sue what she wanted to do, assuming there was no order, Sue’s answer as a golem would be ‘I want to follow the master’s orders’.

But Suu said he wanted to go around with his master.

Megan whispered in Ceylon’s ear.

-Ceylon Army…! Suu has an ego!!! It’s not just a golem!

“Quaaagh!”

It was a volume that made me want to whisper something meaningful.

feel good and bad

have your own thoughts

and mark it

It has a human form and thinks with an ego.

From noble mtl dot com

Ceylon and Megan began to feel that Sue was something more human than something close to a golem.

“Hmm…”

Ceylon scratched his eyebrows in embarrassment.

Do you want to go around with the owner?

Ceylon felt a strong sense of curiosity from the girl’s words.

Her appearance, as white as the first snow, is also the same.

The same is true of that way of thinking that is as white as a blank sheet of paper.

Now that I came to see it, it was a young girl.

A pure girl at a time when she wants to see, feel, and experience the world.

The girl’s life is tied to the lab by order.

It was a bad thing.

“Professor, what should I do…?”

“hmm…!”

Megan nodded after a moment of thought.

“If you don’t mind, why don’t you let Suu do as he pleases!?”

“I’m fine, but if you do that, your research will-“

“…Ceylon, are you trying to seduce me right now!?”

“…yes?”

“Isn’t it!? Anyway, Suu is an amazingly wonderful and delicate being! How can I treat him as a mere research subject!”

Megan lowered her stance a little and looked at Sue.

“Suuya! Master- no, do you want to stay with that brother!?”

nod

“I see! But Suuya, don’t you know that!? If you follow that brother around! There will be quite a few problems! Your brother will be put in a difficult situation!”

Ceylon nodded.

Suu was found and acquired by the great family in the ancient ruins of the Great Demon King – it was a private property of the great family.

I just lent it to Megan for a while for the public good of developing magic engineering.

He drags such Suu out of Megan’s lab and takes him personally.

It had nothing to do with magic engineering research. Problems were bound to arise.

“Master, are you in trouble? Then I’ll give up.”

Megan smiled benevolently at Suu and continued.

“But Suuya! This mother-“

“mom?”

Sue asked. If her expression looks displeased, is it because of her mood?

“Oh, no. Yes! Sister!”

“Sister? Auntie?”

“sister!!!”

“sister.”

“Oh, you’re good at it! Yes, Suu! This sister- can solve the problem that’s bothering you!”

“really?”

“Yeah! By the way! It’s going to be pretty hard for this sister too!”

“Do it anyway.”

Megan burst out laughing.

The treatment was very different.

“Then Suuya! Let’s do this! This older sister will do your favor, so you will also do this older sister’s favor!”

“What request?”

“You can follow your brother around, but when he doesn’t have time, I’ll stay with you! How is it!?”

“Nope…”

“Then you don’t want to help me too!?!”

“…”

Sue looked at Ceylon.

He nodded, and she nodded along.

“Okay. I’ll play with you. Sister help our master.”

Ceylon and Megan looked at the girl with happy faces.

“huh?”

Then Ceylon tilted her head.

“Wait. Then I-“

Suddenly, he became the girl’s guardian.

Ceylon, who belatedly realized this, was taken aback.

He had to complete his academy life as Ceylon and clear his achievements as his right-hand man.

Should I babysit Sue for a little bit a day?

It could have interfered with academy life.

It was embarrassing for Ceylon, who graduated with good grades from the academy and wanted to enjoy life as much as a nobleman.

“hahahaha! Ceylon! If that’s the case, don’t worry! I’ll actively accommodate you!”

“hahahaha…”

Ceylon was indifferent.

All he needed was time to parallel his academy life and achievement clearing.

It wasn’t something I could take care of just because it was convenient.

“Take this!”

“This-…”

Megan brought some documents and gave them to Ceylon.

It was a store.

Those that can be given to students by academy instructors or professors have the same value as credits when calculating the credits required for promotion and graduation.

Megan, now a professor, has given Ceylon all the stores a cadet can afford for a year.

[Reason for store grant: research assistance]

[Granted credits: 5]

In fact, it was no different from completing one elective class with the highest grade.

“…is this okay?”

Ceylon’s mouth fell open.

Is this acceptable in terms of fairness?

“Is there anything wrong?”

Contrary to Ceylon’s concerns, the professor’s authority related to the store was thoroughly respected.

The shop was, in effect, a system in which professors staking their names to vouch for their students.

Professors did not carelessly grant shops because their names and reputations were at stake.

Same goes for Megan. Her grade point average for one semester did not exceed 1.

“What have I done…”

“Restarting Suu-no, waking it up is something I, a magic engineering professor, have been working hard for a year, but I haven’t been able to do! At the same time! Look! What an impact that wondrous child who has regained his worth will have in magical engineering! You’ve done it! It’s an achievement! No one will dispute your achievements!”

It was as Megan said.

Just because Ceylon himself felt that waking Suu was simple didn’t make it objectively simple.

The power of black magic equivalent to 8 stars.

This is the power that Ceylon had to awaken in order to awaken Sue.

What could be accomplished if that power were used elsewhere?

Considering that, Ceylon’s waking Sue was definitely an achievement.

Right now, as Megan said, it is a problem that she, the continent’s highest authority on magical engineering, has been stuck with for a year, but has not been able to solve it.

If anyone would question Megan’s decision, no one would be able to dispute it.

“…”

This woman is in a good mood. How to handle the rear end.

Ceylon’s thoughts changed.

I had forgotten for a moment, but this big-necked woman in front of me was the continent’s best authority on magic engineering.

Persuaded by Megan, Ceylon checked the store again.

If you take care of a child in your spare time, you can get the same benefits as completing an elective class with a top grade?

therefore.

Do you think you can afford one class?

“oh…”

Ceylon said to Megan with a determined face.

“I will dedicate my all to take care of Suu.”

“It’s good~!!! Isn’t that Suwoo?!”

Sue nodded.

“I’m glad, Master.”

master.

The girl’s name caught on Ceylon’s ear.

“Master! Suuya! Call Ceylon-kun your brother! Brother!”

Is Megan the same?

She spoke to Sue in a childish tone.

Sue looked up at Ceylon and tilted her head.

“brother?”

***

When I’m not around, Megan is the owner.

You must strictly follow Megan’s instructions.

Ceylon, who had thoroughly undergone mental training to prevent Sue from causing trouble, returned to the classroom just before class began.

The moment Ceylon entered the class, something flew and hugged him.

“Ceylon”

Fluffy.

It was Adela.

“Same division, same grade, and even the same class. At this point, aren’t we really destined?”

“Even though the class is different, being in the same grade in the same department.

Ceylon’s simple answer.

Adela looked up at him in her arms and shook her head.

Ugh~

He speaks with a snort full of aegyo.

“Is that so?”

Ceylon couldn’t do this or that with his arms raised.

“Aww!”

Then Adela was separated from Ceylon.

Adela’s arm was torn off by Adela, who was holding Ceylon.

“What power!”

“This person is really just going out!? There’s no such thing as shame!?”

“Even though I feel embarrassed, I feel it. Why are you meddling?”

“You’re attracting Ceylon, you horny woman!”

“heat…!?”

The two started fighting without fail.

“The winning side is our side.”

Miz looked at them and murmured.

The time when I looked around the class to see if there were other people in Ceylon.

“Our lovely babies! Nice to meet you!”

The front door of the school opened.

A woman with short pink hair, with her bangs almost covering one eye, entered the venue, showing off her unique fluttering atmosphere.

She is probably the class’s instructor.

“ah…”

“hmm…’

The reaction of the cadets was ambiguous.

Cynia of Iron Wall.

From a swordsman’s point of view, she was an exemplary person with no one comparable in Arien.

But what about as an educator?

“It’s ruined…”

someone muttered.

The academy instructor Sinia was notorious in many ways.

“Huh? Why is the reaction like this~?”

Sinia, who went up to the podium, looked around at the cadets and said.

at that time.

Her eyes fixed on Ceylon and—

“Ah! Number 348!”

Cynia waved her hands happily.

“Did you miss me?”

With that overly friendly attitude, the cadets’ attention was focused on Ceylon.

someone muttered.

– No way, even the instructor!?

‘What does that mean?’

Ceylon was concerned about that.

“Anyway, our babies including number 348. Nice to meet you!

Let Sinia look at the cadets with a rustling expression.

“Well then, shall we go out?”

With the instructor in charge conducting the class without context, the cadets, including Ceylon, intuited their future.

“…hmm?”

As Ceylon left the classroom at Sinia’s instructions and headed for the parade ground in front of the swordsman’s hall, Ceylon suddenly felt a presence.

Sinia, who had come right next to me, was looking at Ceylon, showing off her signature rustling atmosphere.

“Instructor Cynia?”

It was then that Ceylon asked her what was going on.

Ceylon’s heart almost fainted at the words that Sina threw out.

***

Sinia was in danger due to an encounter with the empty bag, Harasin’s direct master.

The one who helped her was her right arm – another assassin.

An assassin who antagonizes an assassin.

true harash.

Did you say that the enemy of the enemy is an ally?

Sinia was interested in those who were hostile to God Hara, the same as she was.

Then, the first thing that came to her mind was participation number 348.

He was a cadet who had nothing to do with Harasin, but was gifted with an unheard-of talent for assassination.

Cynia thought.

perhaps-

Could Ceylon be related to the true Harassin?

In that case, it could explain Ceylon’s unusual ability as an innate talent for assassination.

It’s just that he hasn’t had a ceremony with his brother yet, but if he learns the art of assassination, he’ll immediately be reborn as a great assassin.

His condition was similar to that of an apprentice swordsman who received basic training to get the foundation before learning swordsmanship.

in other words.

Could he be an ‘apprentice assassin’?

‘Isn’t it true that he is an apprentice assassin who is in a position of about ‘end’ in Harasin?

It was pretty plausible.

Enough to walk the possibilities.

I don’t expect to be able to reach the right arm, that mighty being, just by approaching a kid like Ceylon.

Still, wouldn’t it be helpful to get to know the true Harasin group and get in touch with them?

From noble mtl dot com

After completing the hypothesis, Xinia felt that the interest she had in Ceylon grew even more.

The moment the opportunity came up, I immediately floated Ceylon.

“Lagadielias?”
