Episode 185 – The Story of the Uninvited
#One
Harrison.
A mage’s family that freezes anything.
If Laves is considered the best wizard on the continent, the Harrison family is considered the best ice magician on the continent.
It could be said that there is a difference between universality and specialization.
They are said to be a great family, but they were also a family that had almost no external activities.
They are not conquerors, nor have they greatly expanded their business.
They were only interested in protecting what they had and those who swore allegiance to them.
“You are Manus. My name is Rachel. Harrison Rachel.”
“nice to see you.”
“first… … was it Is that right?”
Manus also felt the difference in Rachel’s words.
Yes, something is obviously wrong.
Otherwise, smart people would not be able to remember properly.
‘It’s getting complicated.’
I decided to think about it later, and for now, building a relationship came first.
The opponent is a nobleman.
It was also Rachel, who was wearing the title of Grand Mage.
“What is important? I always get a lot of help from Alano.”
“Oh, so? Huhuhu, come hang out sometime. Is it very different from the rumor?”
“mother.”
Alano glanced at her from the side.
Rachel pretended not to be able to win her daughter’s torch and handed an apology to Manus.
“I’m sorry. by saying something It’s good that our guy didn’t come. It would have burned again.”
“I will greet you separately.”
“Don’t feel pressured. But really, putting them together like this, it feels like watching an elite unit, doesn’t it?”
“Somehow it happened like this.”
Is it really so?
Rachel’s eyes brightened.
Every family had its own information network.
Everyone knew that the current atmosphere was unusual.
Three student presidents.
Then to Manus.
“Since they are members of the student council, we can get along well with each other. If we build friendships in the future, we will be able to give and receive great help even after graduation.”
“Thanks for the advice.”
“Then, I’ll go see you. I have to say hello to His Majesty as well.”
Harrison Rachel left like that.
In addition, they had to face numerous nobles, such as the Floys family, the Harry family, and the Primary family.
And there was someone watching them.

“As expected, is no one coming to us?”
“never mind.”
“How can you not care? Aren’t you hungry?”
“… … .”
A group made up of commoners.
Among them, Castro quietly drank and waited for the right time.
He showed perfect skill.
It aimed at the golem’s joints, causing it to lose its mobility, and penetrated the core.
He single-handedly captured wizards and warriors and performed at his best in the interpersonal battle.
He survived without a single scratch, and passed the dungeon the second fastest among freshmen.
But now, he was just a figure crouching in a corner.
“An escort knight? Does escort knight make sense? To someone as talented as you?”
“Be quite.”
A nobleman had come to visit.
He said that he wanted to serve as his escort knight after graduation.
I sent it back with the utmost courtesy, but it was strange.
‘Looks like he used some magic.’
Strangely, people who don’t pay attention to themselves.
I didn’t understand how they treated me like a non-existent person.
I don’t think it’s strange, but the people next to me were just complaining.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just then, a woman in a brown dress approached from afar.
was not aristocratic.
She was a person who lived in the forest.
“Senior Elena.”
“What are you doing here?”
“It doesn’t seem like a place for us to fit in.”
“okay? You said your grades were good this time.”
“With that… … It didn’t seem to matter.”
Castro said with a sigh.
is it?
Elena tilted her head.
In fact, she has met numerous nobles.
There were even barons and viscounts who offered to give names.
What I did with Manus.
which was excellent.
Several other factors combined to make Elena a celebrity.
“Is something strange? So why are you stuck here?”
“For now.”
“Don’t do that, look around. just in case?”
“… … I just don’t want to. Having to go around while promoting my values must mean that I am still lacking.”
It’s strange.
Elena scratched one cheek.
The person concerned will be here, but who will stop it?
She shrugged and turned away.
“Yeah, what… … It’s not bad to take a good rest. Eat lots of delicious things.”
“thank you.”
Seeing Elena’s disappearing back, Castro frowned at the annoyance that came from beside him.
Ramment, a friend who always stuck with him, seemed to have no intention of going up.
Maybe my skills were reaching a limit, I barely made it to class A.
“Oh really. If you’re a senior, you should help out, really… … . Are you really going to be here like this?”
“… … If you’re so dissatisfied, go alone.”
“what? hey say… … . uh huh Where?!”
“Play with the kids. Or go wag your tail at the nobles.”
“That bastard, but-”
Castro ignored Ramment’s words and moved on.
Ramment might have been right.
Elena didn’t even know if she was saying the right thing.
but… … he didn’t want to
＜One day, someone will appear who will recognize Castro’s bowl.＞
＜Opportunities come to those who are prepared. If you are always diligent, opportunities will come on their own.＞
＜Take care of yourself. Now that you’re a freshman, there are plenty of days to see the light.＞
Professor Trevor, who always consulted.
As he said, there was still a chance.
I thought they were weird.
Strangely enough, it seemed that he would never be able to keep up with those who were growing rapidly.
Still, he was unwilling to give up.
Now that I realized that what the adults said was just because I lived with a narrow view, I should try harder to die.
‘Should I swing the sword more?’
As I continued to think, I heard a welcome voice.
It was the professor’s voice that always gave him strength.
“What are you doing here alone?”
“Oh, I was just getting some fresh air.”
“Did you talk a lot with the nobles?”
“… … no.”
Professor Trevor stood beside him and smiled benevolently.
What should I say today?
He knew the power of exchange.
Even if he was a commoner, it wasn’t that there was no entrance gate.
For one-dimensional thinkers, why do commoners fight against aristocrats? have a prejudice.
In a continent where you can get ahead as long as you have the ability, that was a very wrong idea.
Nobles had enemies everywhere, so it was very important to recruit outstanding talents who did not belong.
“That is strange. Did you say hello first?”
“yet… … I didn’t give it to you.”
“It’s not good to tie yourself up too much.”
“I just kept quiet because I didn’t think I was ready yet.”
Trevor let out a small sigh and moved on.
Soon after, he handed the dazed Castro a sparkling soda.
Towards him silently accepting, he poured out encouragement.
“It might be a good choice. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing.”
“That’s what you said before.”
“However, it is also important to look at things with a slightly wider perspective. Relationships open those eyes.”
“It is difficult.”
When you talk to a lot of people, there are people who become rather hard.
Those who go through various people, accepting what is acceptable and rejecting what is rejected, have specific and broad beliefs.
Trevor believed that Castro was such a man.
And such a person can listen to various opinions and refine himself.
“Meet different people. And, you have to find your own philosophy in it.”
“… … .”
Castro, knowing it was time for another piece of advice, drank quietly.
The emphasis was placed on Trevor’s words.
“When you can let go of them all, you can stand tall above others.”
“Are you going to push something of my own?”
“I will point you in the right direction, not the wrong direction.”
Conversation was such an important factor.
In life, what is inseparable from humans is unexpectedly different people.
In a good way or a bad way, in the end, humans were meant to be entangled with someone.
Needless to say, being the one who leads it is better.
“I will keep that in mind.”
“The wind is hot. I’ll just go in.”
“thank you.”
After Trevor was gone, Castro thought quietly.
As long as he could handle mana, the heat was nothing.
relationships and the formation of beliefs.
‘If you look at it, there must be someone who suits me. There will be people who will recognize me.’
If that’s not the case, shouldn’t I gather people like that?
It felt like my stuffy head was clear.
However, I didn’t want to do that today.
It was because I wanted to savor Professor Trevor’s words.
someday the opportunity will come
he will become stronger
Or should I try to do it like Manus-senpai?
“That would be nice too.”
he laughed.
#3
I talked to many people.
Manus realized that having a banquet was as difficult as climbing the tower.
I always had to be nervous, and I always had to look around.
‘Oh, I really don’t want to do it.’
I hid my insides and looked around.
Cale was already exhausted and tucked away in a far corner.
Anais and Pearson were sticking together as if they were partners and running around.
Others also sat down and chatted happily.
‘I’ll have to rest in the corner too.’
Manus avoided people’s eyes and headed to the windy terrace.
There were passengers, but I didn’t really care.
He also seemed to be in a position no different from his own.
I tried to take my eyes off him, but something caught me.
‘Did you know how to use magic? no… … Someone played a prank on me.’
The magic hanging around him.
It was a sophisticated and secret magic that could not be seen if it were not for Caesar’s mindset.
Who made a joke like that?
Perhaps feeling the gaze, the passenger, Castro, turned his head and looked at Manus.
Then, after a moment’s hesitation, she approached him and opened her mouth.
“Senior Manus.”
“… … .”
Instead of answering, Manus asked with his eyes.
Castro looked into his eyes and hesitated before opening his mouth.
“Movement… … How is it?”
“Do you want to do it too?”
“yes.”
Castro.
Commoner, Cale’s nemesis.
However, the character is always frustrated by being pushed by the main character.
Because he failed to climb the tower, he could never defeat the protagonist.
It must be from the main character’s point of view.
He was always the one who won, so he was a character not worth worrying about.
Manus saw his serious eyes.
“You’ll just have to do it like now.”
“… … okay.”
“It’ll be quicker if you ask the professor.”
“thank you.”
I just started talking to him, but my fate changed.
[Interference has begun.]
[The direction of the world line changes.]
[Castro’s fate is twisted.]
[The fate of the adversary is twisted.]
That was a very big change.
