“Eugene, I’ll keep it up, so be assured!”
I floated a huge drop of water in the air and shouted at Eugene standing at the opposite side
The huge drops of water floating in the air were shaken without scattering over the ground, and I was trying hard not to burst these drops.
“I know!”
With Eugene’s shout, a bright light burst out of his hand, and the light vanished from sight in a flash like a burnt dog.
After a while, I felt sothing entering the droplet I floated.
Eugene’s attack magic slowly shook in the droplet of water, and soon exploded like a firecracker and poured out bright lights.
“Spade, now!”
At the sa ti, I lifted the air magic that had been floating the water droplets.
When the water droplets that had been locking up the attack magic were dismantled, flashlights flashed around. Dissolved. Slowly collapsing drops of water beca a huge waterfall and spilt onto the floor.
As I flicked my finger without missing that mont, the mass of water droplets that had poured onto the floor gently scattered and evaporated into the air.
“Phew, the timing was right at last.”
I said, inhaling the air from the damp room.
“You have to keep this up in the future. From beginning to end, perfectly without stopping.”
Eugene, who was standing on the other side, walked towards and talked.
“Now the completeness of the individual magic is almost perfect. With the right timing to combine them, we can do it perfectly on stage.”
Eugene was right.
Now, I know how to cast different magic simultaneously. Even with the blue flas, my eyes didn’t hurt anymore.
Unlike before, Eugene was able to control the timing and extent of the attack magic. And the magical power, much better controlled than before.
“Yes, let’s try again.”
Then there was a bloody practice for about 30 minutes ahead.
As I watched the magic with colourful fireworks and brilliant effects of the flash from Eugene, my eyes seed to fall out, but the more I tried to set the right timing with my eyes wide open.
Eventually, half an hour later, by the ti the practice was sowhat finished and I was exhausted, Eugene wiped the sweat off his forehead and declared the end of the practice.
“I think it’s almost done. Let’s wrap up with this today.”
As soon as I heard Eugene, I lay down on the ground.
It would have been one of the things that could never have been done in an academy full of nobles, but it didn’t matter.
I was so tired now, and I was so exhausted that I could ignore Eugene, who saw this appearance, even if he nagged .
“Hey.”
See, my hunch is never wrong.
It was obvious that there are only two of us now, but what if people see it all later on, and what if they said the heirs of 7 Imperial families do such uncultivated things? It was obvious that he would nag more than this.
‘I don’t know. Just don’t listen.’
Eventually, he breathed in colourful breaths and closed his eyes.
“Hey, spades. Don’t pretend you didn’t hear it.”
But how could I listen to Eugene?
I just lay on the floor in ignorance and didn’t say anything back.
I was lying quietly, cooling off so much heat, and suddenly a piece of cloth flew in and covered my face.
“Ah! What is this?”
Suddenly, I was surprised by the hot air that covered my face and raised my upper body.
When I grabbed the clothes that had run down my chest and stared at Eugene, Eugene snorted and talked little by little.
“Ha, that’s what I said, don’t pretend you don’t hear .”
Eugene, who said so, took off his jacket and was only wearing a shirt and vest.
‘Huh?’
Only then did I know that it was his jacket that was in my hand.
“Put it on the ground and lie on it. Because the ground is dirty.”
It ca out again. That unpredictable, kind attitude.
When I finally listened to him and didn’t move, looking only at the jacket in my hand, Eugene frowned as if strange.
“What, why aren’t you lying down? Lie down on it.”
“….….”
At his words, I looked at Eugene’s face gently. Then Eugene shot back with an expression of even more unknownness.
“What, what’s wrong?”
“……no, it’s okay. I’m not going to lie down.”
“What? Why?”
With Eugene’s back, who looked like soone who had suffered a very unfair incident, I folded his jacket neatly and arranged it.
Then I stood still and returned his jacket to him.
Then he frowned violently and spilt his words in an angry voice.
“Hey, what is it? You don’t even want to touch my jacket….”
“No. Your jacket gets dirty. I’m sorry.”
It was sincere.
I couldn’t have felt at ease when I dirty other people’s jackets just for .
Moreover, Eugene’s personality is dirty, but until recently, he has helped a lot in practising, so lying down on his jacket was even more uncomfortable.
“This, I’m really grateful anyway.”
When I said so, Eugene, who had been looking at with an angry look for a while, took the jacket as if he had no choice but to kick his tongue.
“You can just use it. What a fuss.”
“Thanks for your attention.”
Finally, I went back and leaned back on the chair.
If I lie down again, I think Eugene would nag again to lie down on his jacket.
“Eugene.”
“Why.”
Leaning against the chair, I raised my head and looked up at the ceiling and asked in a languid voice.
“A lot of people will gather on the day of the performance, right?”
I heard that outsiders also attended the Academy Foundation Day Event after thorough verification, but it was also difficult for to predict the scale of the event because I had never experienced it in person.
‘I think I’d be nervous if there were too many people out there.’
So I asked him a little bit, thinking that Eugene, who had been trained in magic since he was young, would know a little better.
I don’t think I’ll panic on the day if I prepare my mind in advance.
“Why do you ask sothing so obvious? I told you then, there’s a lot of outsiders coming, too.”
“How many people are coming?”
“The ballroom will be full.”
When I heard Eugene’s answer, I laughed and thought to myself.
‘I have to be firmly prepared to go.’
If I don’t, I might faint in front of people.
“More than at the successor appointnt?”
“Yeah.”
The remark gave a deep sigh.
There were a lot of people at the ceremony for the appointnt of the successor, and I was also quite nervous at that ti.
However, the burden was less than that of the performance, as simple fla magic could be used to show the mana.
But I couldn’t help but be nervous that I had to accomplish difficult magic without making mistakes in front of more people than I did then.
“Are you nervous?”
At Eugene’s words, I leaned against the chair and glanced at him and answered back.
“Then aren’t you nervous?”
“I’m nervous, though.
That’s how he ca up to where I was sitting and picked up another chair.
“But you also need practice getting through it.”
Eugene, sitting on it with a chair beside , looked at stealthily and talked.
“We’ll have a lot to do in front of people in the future.”
“That’s true.”
“If we show signs of uneasiness, the people will be anxious.”
It sounded right.
Now that he is aiming for Trump, he will often use magic in front of people, but he would not be able to show his nervousness in front of people every ti.
“And you, we have no option at all to be nervous that day and make a mistake.”
Eugene looked at with his sharp blue eyes and talked.
“We’ve done perfectly so far, so that day will be perfect. That’s all I think. Don’t think you’ll make a mistake.”
“Yes, all right.”
It was a little touching that Eugene described the subject of the descriptive word “perfectly done” as “we.”
But I didn’t bother to ntion it. Because if I ntion it, I’m sure he’ll peck at like an angry hummingbird.
“By the way, I’ve heard that 7 Imperial Families can also attend.”
“Yes, I’m sure soone is coming. Not only us, but the second and third-grade representatives have successors of the 7 Imperial Family too.”
“I see. We’ll show our performance in front of them as well.”
As I turned to my side saying so, Eugene had a pretty complicated look on his face.
‘What’s wrong with him?’
His half-closed eyes seed sharper than ever, not enough to bite his lips out of proportion.
But his eyes seed more concerned than angry.
“Eugene.”
“…….”
Even though I called his na, Eugene was only biting his lips, thinking hard about sothing.
“Hey.”
Eventually, when I poked my index finger in his shoulder, Eugene looked at in surprise.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you? Out of nowhere.”
“Oh, no. Nothing.”
Not a look of nothing at all, I squinted my eyes and asked him.
“What’s the matter? What’s wrong with you all of a sudden.:
“No, nothing.”
“It doesn’t look like nothing.”
At the words, Eugene scratched his head with a look of considerable annoyance.
“No, I was just a little worried about performing in front of my father. It’s no big deal.”
“Father?”
“Yeah.”
Previously, Rachel had talked about Eugene’s father.
A household owner of a prestigious family who has produced Trump for the third generation. A person who stirs up the fields and gives harsh education to make Eugene a fourth-generation Trump. And a stubborn, self-respecting father who won’t admit it unless he’s the first.
‘……in a word, he’s just a typical old man.’
Thinking so, I shook my head around.
Co to think of it, Eugene had a great obsession with the first place until recently. Rather than wanting to do so, his father must have had a lot of influence.
If he was pushed out of the first place at least once, he’d have to be ignored by his father.
“If I do well in this performance, can I be recognized by my father?”
“Better than not being able to. If you do well in front of other outsiders, you’ll have a chance to impress the palace.”
At the words, I stood up from the chair and beat my chest with my fist and spoke proudly.
“Hey, leave it to , let’s make it perfect for you and this ti and get a complint from your father.”
