Episode 8. Afterwards,
the sunlight filtering through the window of the Mage Tower illuminated a woman lying in bed.
Her graceful face, as if made out of sculpture, was too beautiful to say enough to dazzle her eyes.
“Mmm.”
I tossed and turned once, and my black hair, like a waterfall, spilled over the edge of the bed.
Then, frowning, Diene closed her eyes and stood up with only her upper body.
She sat there with a pouty face, then rubbed her eyes and got out of bed.
Maybe it was because she overslept after a long ti, she washed her face roughly to wake up her drowsy mind.
“Puha.”
smart.
As she finished washing her face and ca out of the bathroom, she heard a knock on the door and the voice of one of her friends, Urich.
“Diene! Are you inside?”
“Yeah wait a minute.”
Diene lightly made the bed and opened the door.
“Did you sleep?”
“huh. I slept late yesterday reading a book.”
“Have you seen the magazines with the articles again? No matter how much you don’t have class today, you keep doing that and it hurts your skin?”
“Yes yes. all right. mom.”
“I’ve never had a daughter like you.”
The two of them laughed together with a nonsensical joke and soon prepared refreshnts on the terrace attached to their dormitory room.
They sat down and drank tea leisurely in the afternoon sunlight.
From ti to ti, the two talked about various gossip and about knights, Diene’s main interest.
“But what is it? Did you co right after class?”
“Are you asking that now? I was too busy talking. You know Lucia Everlast, right?”
“know.”
“They succeeded in making a new potion this ti, and the recipe is being reviewed at the Rodelen Magic Tower.”
Oh oh. Diene quietly exclaid in admiration.
Lucia Everlast was a giraffe she had heard of.
Among the freshn, Lucia, who is called a sleeping dragon for her unrivaled talent, was said to have a lazy personality unlike her talent.
But when I heard that such a child had accomplished one thing, I felt proud at first.
“I heard that you are lazy, but what a genius… … .”
“Ah, what are you talking about? Of course, since you’re working hard, it’s a bit unfair.”
“No absolutely not. If a freshman figured out a new potion recipe, that’s great. When I was in first grade, people around just supported and didn’t do anything.”
“You’re a little tasteless.”
“Why?”
The two won, half joking and half serious, started talking again.
“But it sure is amazing. I never thought a freshman would make such an achievent. Besides, potions are not ordinary potions.”
“What did you make?”
“Is there a stamina boost potion made with Morhai? By supplenting it, the advantages are increased and the side effects are completely eliminated.”
To be honest, I didn’t expect half of it, but when I heard it, Diene couldn’t help but be surprised.
“really? Is that possible?”
“I don’t know. You know once the exam is over. Maybe it’s aningless if the ingredients are just legendary herbs.”
“Oh, I can’t possibly put sothing like that.”
“Still, the famous Everlast rchant is the back ship, isn’t it suspicious?”
There was a valid suspicion that it could certainly be the case, but Diene shook her head.
“The Lucia I heard was not that kind of kid. Couldn’t such a genius have even thought of that much?”
“Indeed, yes. Oh, and I heard that Lucia Everlast wasn’t the only one who made this potion.”
“Co-production?”
“huh. Don’t be surprised to hear it.”
Who the hell are you to listen and not be surprised?
When Diene tilted her head, she lted Urich’s heart with her elegance and cuteness that didn’t match.
“Oh no. Won’t you tell ?”
“What! tell !”
“Ha-ha-ha-ha. Diene’s sister. i love you!”
“Stop kidding and tell quickly. I an, I’m really curious.”
After fully savoring Diene’s plea, Urihi imdiately smiled and said the na he couldn’t believe even after hearing it.
“Adrias Cromwell.”
“… … what?”
“Dismal perverted brute Adrias!”
“ha… … .”
Diene sighed and shook her head.
“Don’t joke, tell quickly. Or was Lucia alone in the first place?”
“Isn’t that a joke?”
“what?”
“No kidding. Really, that Adrias is on the list of co-producers.”
Diene’s face hardened as it was at Urich’s serious words.
Is that Adrias? The Adrias that had less recycling value than rolling garbage?
She just couldn’t believe it.
No, I couldn’t admit it.
“Nonsense.”
“I thought so too. Most people did too. But what if it’s true? A notice has already been published. Check your tablet.”
If the official docunt was announced, it is true unless the sky was split in two or it was a huge mistake.
And Diene knew the odds of such a mistake being very slim.
Still, I checked the magic tablet first.
‘Lucia Everlast Adrias Cromwell.’
The two nas were actually listed together.
“Yeah. I never thought our bug prince Adrias, who always acted as if he would lick the soles of our feet whenever he saw Diene, would explode like this! Diene, how are you feeling right now?”
“… … .”
Diene, who had been looking at her tablet without saying anything, suddenly stood up.
“Diane? Dee Diene?”
“I have to go and see.”
“Where?”
“Lucia Everlast.”
Diene’s cold eyes deepened like an abyss.
“I’ll et you and check it out.”
* * *
“Hey heck!”
I tried to exhale as evenly as possible.
You have to control your inhalation and exhalation so that you can run longer.
However, the problem was her body, which kept going astray against her will.
“Turn it off.”
Fortunately, I was able to complete the target distance before I lost my breath.
I felt a horrible stabbing pain in my lungs, but I stretched casually.
I wanted to sit down and catch my breath right away, but I endured it and endured the discomfort.
The current ti is 5:00 AM.
It was a twilight ti.
It was also the ti to exercise every day these days.
As soon as I finished stretching, I headed straight to the gym.
Should I say it’s funny or ironic?
In the strength training room of the Faculty of Magic, there were equipnt and tools that were not inferior at all compared to those in the Faculty of Knights.
It was probably prepared at the sa level because of the complaints of the students of the Faculty of Magic.
That’s right, honestly, what kind of exercise do these guys who study magic in a small room?
Thanks to this, this place has beco like my personal gym.
So, is it your turn to grind your lower body today?
“senior.”
“Suck!”
At that mont, I barely held back my screams and checked Shin-young, who was getting up from a corner of the training room.
“Lucia?”
“Haam. Good morning.”
When I saw her yawning and making a hazy expression, I burst into laughter without knowing it.
why are you here
“What are you doing here?”
“I’ve been waiting for you, senior. I slept while waiting.”
“What do you an?”
“Senior, you don’t have a magic tablet. I had no way to contact you, so I heard that you were working out at dawn and waited since yesterday.”
I couldn’t quite understand it.
Why do you have to wait like this?
I don’t understand why you slept here in the first place?
“It’s today, senior.”
“what?”
“An interview with the results of the examination. That’s why you should go to the Magic Tower with .”
“Did you wait since yesterday to tell that? You just need to co and talk to yesterday.”
“Yesterday, I didn’t have ti to visit you because I was caught by so seniors.”
Having said that, she was already getting ready to sleep with her eyes half closed.
“wake up.”
“Five more minutes… … .”
She even brought a sleeping bag and pillow and fell back to sleep.
After watching her for several days, I found that she was an idler with no interest in anything except herbalism and manufacturing.
It is said that he is so lazy that he does not even attend lectures except for the two subjects just ntioned.
Surprisingly, even though the attendance rate was a ss, the last midterm exam was all 100 points, so it was a clear example of how unfair this world is.
It was difficult to deal with because it was so My Way and it was 4D, but now I’m getting used to it.
It was approaching 7 o’clock when I finished today’s exercise, leaving her in bed.
“Lucia wake up.”
“Ugh… … little bit more.”
“He said he had to go to the Magic Tower. Until when?”
“Ugh.”
Lucia, who eventually opened her eyes at the word magic tower, looked up at and said.
“Seven o’clock… … half.”
“what?”
I asked again, wondering if I had heard it wrong.
“Seven o’clock? seven in the evening?”
“Seven thirty in the morning.”
what?
Without even having ti to think about anything, I reflexively picked up Lucia, who was lying there.
“Eh?”
I felt Lucia startle and struggle, but I grabbed her with an unknown force and started running.
“late! run!”
Fortunately, the Mage Tower was located within the academy’s premises and near the Faculty of Magic, so I was able to arrive without delay.
Of course, it was possible because Lucia got off on the way and ran on her own.
“Is that Lucia Everlast Adrias Cromwell?”
“yes.”
“Follow .”
After following the teaching assistant belonging to the magic tower, I looked around the complex inside of the tower.
From the outside, it looks just like a cylindrical building, but the inside is complex like a maze.
If you want to walk a little, a completely unexpected space appears, and if you think you went up the stairs, at so point you were going down to the basent.
‘My head spins and turns.’
Without the teaching assistant, she would have been lost forever, so she did not slow down and followed her.
“senior. Look at that.”
While he was chasing after him, Lucia beckoned sowhere.
Looking where she pointed, a huge blue bird of prey was sitting on a flagpole scratching its beak.
“Stormbringer!”
“I’ve only heard of it, but it’s amazing to actually see it.”
It is a type of monster classified as a spiritual object.
As the na suggests, it is a monster that uses lightning and wind.
Being a spirit creature, he was very intelligent and could beco a friend if he beca close with him.
I also managed to ta it with countless save load new skills in the ga.
“uh?”
While watching Stormbringer like that, we were imdiately taken aback.
“Where have you been?”
The teaching assistant has disappeared.
In less than 5 seconds, as if they had teleported, the assistant disappeared and Lucia and I looked at each other awkwardly.
“It’s best to stand still when you’re lost.”
“senior. This is inside the Magic Tower, so even if you stand still, the space keeps twisting.”
“… … okay?”
It’s a setting I haven’t seen in the ga.
At that ti, when a character entered the Mage Tower, he was imdiately moved to suit the purpose of the visit.
The process of walking like this was not expressed.
“Oh, I just rembered.”
“What? Is there a way?”
“No, that’s not what I was talking about yesterday. You said you were caught by your seniors.”
Do we really need to talk about it now?
I wanted to take a look inside my head to see what the hell they were thinking.
“senior? Are you listening?”
“uh. so.”
“I did, but one of those seniors was Diane Alven.”
“okay?”
Diene ca to see Lucia… … .
there may be enough
In the first place, the playable characters residing in the academy are all bound to co across sohow.
I recognized the talented as much as the talented.
But what were you talking about? It’s still the ti before the ga starts, so I don’t know what happened.
“But the reason you ca to was because of you.”
“?”
“Yes, sir.”
? why?
No, why did Diene bother to visit Lucia… … .
“Is it because of the potion?”
“that’s right. They asked why I listed my senior as a co-producer. I was very suspicious.”
Well, I didn’t expect to get involved like this.
I didn’t want to get involved with Diene as much as possible.
‘If I put it that way, I was too involved with Lucia.’
I was treated carelessly.
I had a big feeling that he was going to die in the first place.
“so?”
“I just told the truth. The seniors did everything.”
“hey!”
“yes?”
“No, good job.”
no!
More of a playable’s interest is the specification.
Wouldn’t that make you die faster than in the ga?
I wanted to curse at Lucia’s handling, but I couldn’t take my anger out on a guy who didn’t know anything.
He would think that he was considerate of .
“I guess you were acquainted with senior Diene?”
“Uh uh yes. It’s not a very good relationship.”
“Then it’s not a good relationship.”
Lucia and I both turned our heads at the sudden interruption of the voice.
A middle-aged man with both eyes covered with a black cloth sat leaning against a flagpole with one leg hanging down.
The Stormbringer was on top of his arm and was showing off his charms.
And seeing him like that, I scread involuntarily.
“Bahat Alven… … !”
