Episode 44
As soon as the festival ended, the second graduation exam was held.
The test results did not exceed Geron’s expectations.
My older brother earned the position of top student with excellent grades that could not be described as overwhelming.
Eventually, when the graduating class returned to the academy, the graduation ceremony began.
“Garcian Perrian, please come up to the podium to represent the graduating class.”
My brother went up to the podium.
The gold thread of the graduation cap, symbolizing the academy’s top graduates, swayed and sparkled in the lights. It is said that the material of that golden water thread is gold. I once saw Erdin’s handkerchief and thought it was made of gold thread, but that was a joke and it was real.
‘How much do you want to do?’
A random thought suddenly occurred to me, but I shook my head to shake it off.
Soon I saw my brother standing proudly on the podium.
‘Yes, if you’re my older brother, you should do that!’
Jeron watched with a proud smile. She was a little upset about her older sister, who had two years left until graduation, but she was doing well, so she didn’t think to say anything.
‘You’ll be lucky if you don’t get into an accident.’
Since he was so talkative, I wasn’t worried at all. However, she deserved praise for having attended the academy safely for the past five years without a single accident, and that after two years, she would graduate with top grades.
‘Very good. Heyshar student. The teacher is so happy that I think she might even cry.’
The graduation ceremony ended while Jeron was happy thinking about his older sister.
“… … This concludes the graduation ceremony. Dear graduating students, thank you for your hard work and hardship. “I hope that God’s grace will be upon you as you leave.”
Clap clap clap!
When my older brother received his diploma from the principal on behalf of the graduates and came down from the podium, thunderous applause rang out.
My parents, who were watching from their seats – parents were also allowed to attend the graduation ceremony – approached my older brother. Although he was a fairly grown older brother, he was still shorter than his parents. My parents hugged me tightly and I fell into their arms. Jeron also approached his family, who shared warmth, and hugged his older brother.
“Ugh!”
My older sister was disgusted and asked me what I was doing. But after hesitating for a moment, she showed typical tsundere behavior by snorting and giving him a little hug to thank him for his hard work.
‘There’s no way my sister is this cute.’
Jeron looked at his sister with confusion for a moment.
Immediately, I shook my head and shook off the distracting thoughts.
It was natural that my older sister, who resembled my mother, was pretty and cute.
‘Of course, there’s nothing like that between family members.’
Before I knew it, my sister started to look like an orc(?) again.
A girl approached Jeron’s family. It was Mayen, wearing a graduation cap with a silver thread symbolizing the valedictorian.
‘Are you coming to see me?’
Jeron immediately noticed her presence and turned his head.
Mayen paid great attention to the results of card fortune telling.
Handing over the badge was proof.
The second graduation exam started right after the festival ended, so we didn’t have to meet each other inside the academy, but now it was the graduation ceremony where all the students gathered in one place. She is coming to see Jeron for the last time since she doesn’t know when she will have another chance to meet him before he graduates.
Mayen hesitated for a moment when she realized that Jeron was not alone, but came closer. She quickly swallowed and said.
“Jero Junior. “Do you have a moment?”
“yes? If only for a moment… “I think it will work.”
The stares that seemed to pierce through me were very burdensome.
The curious eyes of my older brother, sister, and parents were fixed on my back.
“Is it pretty?”
“Who is that kid?”
“My name is Mayen Valentine, and I am a classmate. mother.”
“After all, he is my son.”
In order, they were my older sister, mother, older brother, and father.
‘As expected, that was my goal(?).’
This is why popular people suffer.
Jeron felt his shoulders shrug slightly.
Mayen and I left the graduation ceremony and went to a cafe.
Perhaps because the graduation ceremony was over, there were a lot of people on the streets.
Once we ordered our drinks and sat down, we didn’t have a long conversation.
The short implication was that Mayen should visit Jeron later, or vice versa.
The reason was, as you might have guessed, card fortune telling.
‘I was a bit surprised that it was an artifact.’
I knew the card had strange powers, but I didn’t think it was an artifact. This is because the energy felt from the artifact was not mana.
It’s not internal power, mana, or spirit energy, but a completely different energy!
It was the first type of power that Xeron had encountered.
So it was interesting and I was curious, but that was all.
Because that power was so weak.
“Then I’ll wake up first.”
“Please go back carefully. “Senior Mayen.”
“May the blessings of the ‘Forest of Eternity’ be with you on your path ahead.”
Mayen gestured as if making the sign of the cross and placed both hands in front of her chest.
“May the blessings of the ‘Forest of Eternity’ be with you, too.”
When Jeron followed suit, she smiled softly.
“I hope to see you next time.”
“If you’re a beauty like me, I’m welcome.”

“oh. thank you.”
Mayen left with a slight blush on her cheeks.
Jeron also took a sip of the remaining drink and went to his waiting family.
“Hmm. “What is your relationship with that girl?”
Dad asks Jeron who has returned.
My mother, who was waiting for the answer with her hands clasped next to me, was filled with curiosity and excitement. Her older brother and sister, who pretended not to be interested in her and looked the other way, glanced at her from the corner of their eyes, as if their true intentions were different.
“Is this the girlfriend you met after coming to the academy?”
“no.”
Jeron shook his head.
Then my sister said.
“What isn’t it? He looked at me so passionately that it wouldn’t be strange even if there was a hole in his face! “Even my face got hot.”
“hmm. Was it that much? “It wasn’t what I thought.”
My brother tilted his head and countered, but surprisingly, no one paid any attention. This is because all of his family’s attention was already focused on Jeron.
“I saw a card fortune telling at a festival and I guess it caught my eye. Are you going to meet someone you have a bad relationship with later? So, I would like to take a closer look at the card fortune-telling. “He asked me to come visit him if I had the time and opportunity.”
“You’re going to meet someone you have a bad relationship with?”
“I’m saying this because he’s my son… “Strangely enough, I’m more worried about that person.”
Dad tilted his head at Jeron’s words. Her mother also frowned as if she was puzzled. At that time, my older sister let out an exasperated laugh and said,
“This is all a masterpiece! I’m making an appointment because I want to meet again later. Why is everyone so serious about just card fortune-telling? “I just watch it for fun.”
“Miss Mayenne Valentine’s card fortune-telling is well-known at the Academy. “It may be difficult to blindly trust, but there is nothing good about distrust.”
My older brother spoke calmly in response to my sister’s words.
My sister frowned.
“Anyway, he became a priest. “It’s just the word of God.”
“I once read cards from Miss Mayen Valentine, and she said that great fortune had come to the family. I thought that the fortune might be referring to Jeron. “After he was born, Baron Ferrian began to change.”
“He is also my son.”
Dad smiled happily. I don’t know what touched her mother, but she took out her handkerchief and wiped her moist eyes.
“Am I abnormal? Is that something like that?”
My sister shouted hysterically.
To Jeron, it was clear that his older sister had reached puberty.
* * *
Jeron returned to the Barony with his family. This time Erdin did not go with us.
A summoning order came from the family?
It is said that the Jaywalk family receives training as deacons every year.
It was a little surprising, but my parents seemed to know and just nodded.
‘Well, it’s not like professional jobs fall from the sky.’
Jeron was convinced in his heart. Soon, Baron Perian began to appear.
Two years have passed like that.
* * *
“I haven’t done anything, but it’s the second semester.”
Jeron grumbled softly.
Unlike complaining, I had a hectic time.
During the semester, I studied and interacted with kids.
During vacation, I went home and watched my parents and older brother play martial arts.
At the academy, I couldn’t even afford to be lazy as I was teaching new archery techniques and new methods to my older sister, who was a graduating senior and about to take her second exam.
It was like that.
Jeron had already become a member of the third division.
“The second semester is almost over, so I’m not far from turning 12.”
“I can’t believe Jeron is turning 12.”
Erdin said, looking up at Jeron.
What do you mean?
The story was that Jeron was over 170cm tall.
Not yet a year has passed and 11-year-old Jeron has grown to be more than a finger taller than his senior, the tallest member of the graduating class.
Since he didn’t measure it accurately, he assumed it was over 170cm, but Erdin expected that it might actually be longer than that.
“There are times when I think that the rumor that Jeron has giant blood flowing in his body might be true.”
“What nonsense is this all of a sudden?”
“Jeron is growing taller every day.”
Erdin clung to Jeron’s side and stretched out his hand upwards. Jeron’s head is caught precisely on the wrist. He is proud that he has grown up over the past two years, but he looks small next to Jeron.
“So you want to drink milk?”
“I’m drinking! “I’m drinking!”
“Are you a teenager too? “My older sister was also an adolescent not long ago.”
“profit! Ugh!”
“Foot.”
Jeron smiled softly at Erdin, who was making strange noises and running wild, and went to the teacher’s office. Because Teacher Yuhan found him.
When I entered the teacher’s office, I saw many teachers working.
The teachers raise their heads at the sound of the door and ask with joy when they see it is Jeron.
“It’s Jeron. “What brought you here?”
“Teacher Yuhan was looking for me.”
This time a different teacher asks.
“Teacher Yuhan?”
“You said you had a favor to ask.”
Another teacher asks.
“also? Anyway, when the teacher is bored, he only looks for you?”
“haha. “You must have a good reason.”
“Don’t take it too seriously. Then, Teacher Yuhan starts to have bad habits.”
The teachers laugh haha.
Jeron bowed his head in greeting and went to Yuhan’s personal office.
Private offices are assigned only to homeroom teachers in charge of S class. Yuhan was a high-level Auror Expert – now he has reached the top level, but he is not well known – so he was still in charge of the S class. Since the private office is located inside the teacher’s office, over the past two years, many teachers have been visiting Jeron and have been coming in and out as if eating, and now other teachers are starting to talk to him in a friendly way.
‘It’s somewhat bittersweet that I’ve become accustomed to this kind of life.’
With a bitter smile, I knocked on Yuhan’s personal office door.
“If you are here, come in.”
Squeak-.
As I opened the door and entered, I saw Yuhan filling out documents.
“Wait a moment. “It’s almost over.”
“yes.”
Jeron sat down on a chair and waited.
