“Hey, crazy. A degraded prince knocked out Logan!”
“Ah, no way.”
“Did you see it with my own eyes? ＜Ribarden＞ Like they said, he seems to be really good at using magic. On top of that, he said that his personality was perfect at the end.”
“Are you saying that he is a Confucius of good character and not a Confucius of low rank?”
Through the moonlit window, I could hear the boys’ voices talking excitedly about today’s events.
Professor Owen, who had been standing by the window looking down at the scene, quietly turned around.
“Are you feeling better now?”
＜Delayten＞ The infirmary located in the main building. Logan rose from the hospital bed and touched his bandaged forehead.
“Turn off… … .”
“Seeing that you can still produce that sh*t-like voice and that dumbfounded look, it seems that there is nothing wrong with your brain worse than monkey sh*t!”
“Large, ambassadorial… … !”
As soon as he saw Owen, Logan immediately stood up, straightened his back, and sat upright. The Tchaihak school was famous for its discipline that was stricter than military rule.
“Damn it, Logan! What is the metabolic type? Call me professor here. Where did the fortune-telling window go!”
“Yes, I will call you Professor from now on!”
“rest.”
Only then did Logan relax and looked helplessly down at his palm. His whole body trembled as he clenched his fists weakly.
“Since the name of the school was smeared with sh*t, it looks like it will be beaten to death by the elders.”
“Damn the name of the school? Are you acting like an unlucky genius, Logan? Do you think the Tchaihak school is yours already?”
“No, Professor!”
“The opponent was just bad. I don’t know if those f*cking old people’s bald heads will turn red… … You will understand in a few years.”
Professor Owen turned his head again and looked out the window. In the shadow created by the moonlight, the muscles firmly embedded in his body wriggled.
Muscle is the true strength of a wizard… … Logan swallowed, feeling boundless respect for the great death penalty.
“What do you mean… … ?”
“Do you know about Ludwig the Skalge?”
Is it possible not to know
Wasn’t he the man who was called the best wizard in the empire in the previous generation? Now that he is old, he has withdrawn from the front lines and is focusing on nurturing the younger generation… … .
“The guy from ＜Livarden＞ magic school said that. That sh*tty old man used Lane as an assistant for three years.”
“… … ?!”
“3 years! A whopping 3 years! For some reason, he has almost no academic background, but his skills are certain. Even if you’re not a genius, if you’ve learned 3 years under that sh*t old man, you won’t even be able to compete with quite a few chicks.”
Hostility flared up in Logan’s heart once more. The descendants of Sega didn’t like this. Even if you don’t have talent, you can receive such an education only by blood.
“And the way I see it, Lane, that damn bastard is a f*cking genius among geniuses.”
“Didn’t you hear? That bastard is a degraded Confucius!”
“Take that pathetic big shot! Don’t you know even if you lose like that today? How can that be an obsolete confucius? In a few years, he will become a giant in the magic world. Don’t think of being hostile, but get closer from now on.”
“But he’s a descendant of Sega!”
“You don’t want to be close to me even if I die? I was preaching to such a damn, sh*t head, I should have taken a monkey as my disciple!”
Owen let out a low sigh, gave Logan a friendly slap on the head, and walked towards the door.
“If you don’t want to be friendly, at least don’t think of being hostile. This is advice given not as a professor, but as an executioner. Got it?”
“… … !”
“The conditions set for the Magic War must be observed. Then see you next time, you stupid priest.”
Logan, who stared at the door where Owen had left, let out a sigh of relief a moment later.
‘It was overwhelming… … .’
It is true that anger soared, but there was no will to attack again. If that guy came out with all his might, the result would have been obvious.
“I am not a jerk. It’s just that the ambassador-type urgently asked for it, so he didn’t try harder. I’m not tight… … .”
* * *
After receiving Rin’s diary, I thought that someone unknown might be watching me.
But I can’t believe it was real… … .
The first moment that convinced me of that was when I returned to the library after finishing the Magic War. The courtesy librarian was rummaging through the vast library.
“Confucius, did you take any books?”
When I heard the story, it was like this.
After saying that he would entrust the book to him and leaving, he cleaned up his business and went to where Lane was, but the book was nowhere to be found.
“I didn’t take… … .”
“is that so? That’s strange.”
“Hasn’t someone else borrowed it for you?”
“Impossible. If you try to leave the library without the loan being processed, a magic alarm goes off right away.”
Then the book is gone, by mistake on your part… … I couldn’t say that.
Looking at the worry that formed beads of sweat on the face of the librarian, who had a fairly calm impression… … But the librarian politely bowed his head.
“Excuse me, Gongja. It’s my mistake. I was supposed to take care of the book… … sorry. We will get back to you as soon as we find it.”
What was a bit strange was that while the books of Keith and Friede remained, only the books of Turaina had disappeared.
“It looks like you’ve been looking for a while. What is the price of the book? It’s okay to buy a new one. I pay the bill.”
Sixty years ago, when the Dwarfs developed printing, the price of books stabilized. There was no need to spend a lot of money to buy a manuscript like it was in Lin’s day.
“What do you mean by that? It’s my fault, so I’ll report it to the chief librarian and take the punishment.”
The librarian blinked in surprise for a moment, but then shook his head.
“No, then another disciplinary meeting or what will take a long time?”
“yes? that… … .”
“And I know that general bookstores don’t handle such thick biography of great men… … Personally, I find it annoying to contact the publisher and place an order.”
If so, you can just contact the family and buy it yourself. It would be convenient to leave this matter to the librarian and turn it off.
But if you ask why… … .
It could be said that it was a small reward for bringing Tureina’s book and reminding me of that guy I had buried in the middle of my memory.
Yeah, no favors.
It’s just a trivial answer.
“Then, pretend I lost it and place an order for the book. As for the price, cut the receipt and give it to me, and I will pay for it.”
“I really don’t have to do this. really.”
“You don’t have to be so reserved. Because it doesn’t do much for me anyway. Even if I do something wrong, I will not be punished. All you have to do is pay.”
It was only after three invitations and declines had passed that the librarian bowed his head and expressed his gratitude.
“… … Thank you very much, Gongja.”
But what would life be like if these sudden problems were easily solved?
It was three days later that I received a hopeless reply that made my school life complicated.
* * *
Upon returning to the dormitory, Lane buried herself in bed and thought for a moment.
Should I make this situation complicated or should I make it simple? I hated complicated things, but when I put the series of events together, there were actually a lot of strange things.
‘Rin’s diary came to me, so Tureina’s book disappeared while I was trying to investigate the past of my colleagues… … .’
If there is a being that sends me a diary and watches over me, is it Turaina?
But this makes no sense.
The first reason is that Turaina is dead, and the second reason is that if they know my identity, they contact me right away, there is no reason to keep an eye on them.
‘Lista died, Kies died, and Friede died, so who the hell… … Oh, my head hurts.’
After all, is it only the light dragon Haraderi?
I didn’t get an answer just because I was rolling Shinjanggu here alone, and after an hour of moaning, I just sat down in front of my desk.
Studying is the best when your head hurts.
In particular, there is no other entertainment that is more fun than solving math problems. I should relieve my stress by solving the Previs differential method.
When I opened Rin’s diary to review the problems I had solved during my Rin days, something quite pleasant happened.
From noble mtl dot com
Socrafres.
– You can inherit the ‘unique magic’ research progress in the surrounding environment.
– Progress 37.9%.
It was because of the information that Ludiyan, who had been inside the diary (this guy was sucked into it when I closed it and reappeared when I opened it) printed out in front of my eyes.
“37.9%?”
It’s strange.
Wasn’t it 37.1%? What did you do to increase the 0.8%? Reviewing what we did today… … .
“Isn’t magic the only thing that fans of people do?”
Could it be that the more people you beat, the higher your contribution? This was a very interesting topic. Was the road to truth the road of violence?
‘Ah, I can’t believe that.’
Still, it seemed worth trying.
It was 0.1% against the target in the dragon field, but it rose by 0.8% against Logan, a creature.
Then, you have to use magic against living things, but you can’t just grab someone and use magic.
“Ah, shall we try to be an adventurer?”
I don’t need money or fame.
Just for magic experiments… … Is it very good?
* * *
“okay?”
Madelia Page, a woman with light purple hair who had been briefed on today’s incident by her secretary, turned her chair toward the window.
“Okay, stop going.”
I wish I could have gone and seen it in person… … . Today’s Magic Battle was meaningful in many ways.
– According to Professor Theon’s testimony, it is confirmed that three magics were used with high-speed calculation in the Osarius-type baton technique… … .
Since the Order of Osarius operated on a one-to-one priesthood system, only a very few elites had enemies with the Order for generations.
That’s why it doesn’t make sense that Lane learned the Osarius-style baton technique. There’s no way he would have accepted Sega’s offspring as his disciple.
If that’s the case, it means that I read a book once and imitated it perfectly… … .
“In addition to high-speed calculation?”
Does it mean that not only physical ability but also the brain are overwhelmingly superior? Kavan Ludwig, that nasty bastard has a monster hidden away.
The part that interested me more than skill was the personality. The reason why I participated in the Magic War was because I wasn’t like a descendant of Sega.
Is it innate chivalry?
Or just curiosity?
Whatever it was, this seemed obvious.
“Children’s happiness is amazing… … .”
How do you feel when you see your child grow up so well? Madelia would probably never know.
Madelia’s world collapsed when her daughter was in the accident 10 years ago.
It’s okay if you don’t become an excellent wizard, it’s okay if you don’t become a famous sage in the world, I wouldn’t wish for anything if I could just see that child laughing and running around like before… … .
‘Shall we meet the two?’
I don’t know what kind of stimulation I would get if I knew that there was such a genius among my peers. But soon the idea was put aside.
‘That’s after I’ve definitely recognized Lane Ludwig’s personality. After I was convinced that I would not despise Cassena and make fun of her… … .’
Right.
I’ll be watching closely in the future.
