How to Survive at the Academy Chapter 55

Glast Subjugation (4)

When too many things happen at once and the brain is overloaded, the opposite sex always arrives late.

Because of this, it was possible for Ayla to regain her senses only after some time had passed.

The fact that the demon in the underground waterway across the street is completely intoxicated with sleep magic and never wakes up.

The point is that if you just sit still in prison without resisting, there will be no immediate threat to your safety.

The fact that the spinning head has calmed down to some extent.

I managed to calm myself down because of various factors, and the trembling in my legs stopped.

“Taylor…”

I bury my face in my lap and call out the name sadly, but there is still a long way to go before Taily arrives.

Even I was vaguely aware of it. Taylor will definitely come to save herself.

However, his own situation, which is only a burden every time, is so ugly and resentful. Sadness and a sense of self-doubt come together in his chest.

It’s not that I haven’t tried. Ayla was hopelessly lacking in talent for the field of combat. Other intellectual academic fields are at a level that can never be underestimated.

The ability to understand and utilize magic knowledge is the skill of an academic scholar who even Professor Glast acknowledged.

However, the fact that I can’t do anything on my own without someone’s help every time can’t be so resentful.

More than anyone else’s incompetence, what I feel the most resentment and resentment is my own incompetence.

This time, you will receive help from many people again.

Even, he got help from Ed Rosteyler, who thought like Wen Su and saw his face.

The man left Ayla alone in a safe prison and ran out to break the situation on his own.

Now, what is there to express? I couldn’t believe it, but he was considerate of Isla, who was in confusion.

To be honest, it’s more scary than reliable. Even if you raise your hand just once, you are afraid that you will be stabbed.

“decomposition…”

Emotions always come with expectations.

The form of that expectation varies from person to person.

Just like I want the person I love to always be the right and good person.

The object of my resentment and hatred must always be evil, perverse, and have an evil mind.

That’s because I’m the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the only one

The fact that he is also right, that he has his own beliefs and justice, and that he can be justified depending on his point of view… It’s really not easy to break down your pride and admit that fact.

However, Ayla couldn’t help but admit it.

Ed’s reputation at the bachelor’s school, the sophomore chief who fully supports him, and the perseverance and composure he showed during the Glaskan incident.

In addition, he did not show any embarrassment to the subject, who had been kidnapped together, and maintained a calm attitude.

Ayla, who was hostile and wary of Ed, doesn’t even seem to be offended by Ayla.

Ayla knows what some people call that quality.

It is tolerance.

Whether it’s harming them, passing the blame on them, saying bad words, or sacrificing them… It was a situation where they could do anything they wanted. The balance of power was completely on Ed’s side. Whether it’s simple physical strength, magical ability, or even the mental part.

Nevertheless, rather than trying to help and save Ayla, rather than the arrogant look he saw during the entrance exam, he was more like a solid and dependable senior.

I’d rather do it from the beginning.

During the entrance exam, why did he act like that, and was resentful of the buyer?

When an important and urgent moment comes, to the subject of trying to solve the situation in a serious and serious manner with a senior-like appearance, and to the subject of expressing total trust in Taylor while saying such things, such as saying that Taylor will definitely come to save him…

Why did he act so mean to Taylor during the entrance exam and ruin his reputation?

– ‘Ayla Triss. As you know since you’ve been watching Taylor all along, that kid is a human being who becomes stronger as trials come.’

It was a tone that did not waver, sitting heavily like a giant tree with roots, as if asking what was wrong with the urgent situation.

Ayla knows. Tail Lee was full of all sorts of trials in his life, to the point of wondering if he was a human born with a destiny of trials.

And every time he overcomes trials, he grows one step further… he is such a shining human being.

How did Ed know about Taylor’s disposition?

The way he looked down on Taylor during the entrance exam, the way he reprimanded Taylor during the Glaskan incident, the way he stopped Taylor during the occupation of the Ophelis building. And even though he had the strength to resist more, he admitted defeat to Taylor.

He is a person who usually doesn’t talk much, and since he was excommunicated, he has been quietly focusing on his studies without getting involved with anyone. He seemed to have lost interest in everything except for his studies and life, as if something had changed in his mind.

However, at important starting points, they always became Taylor’s ordeal, and sometimes served as a whip… The way she always put her face into situations where she didn’t have to intervene and just stood by the sidelines.

It was only then that Ayla was convinced that the puzzle was fitting.

The reason is unknown, but it seems that Ed Rosteiler sincerely wishes Taylor’s growth and success.

why?

“…Ed Roth Taylor…?”

Ayla, awake, quickly stood up from her seat and poked her face through the bars.

At the end of the hallway, an astronomy researcher, Koom, is busy reviewing the research data.

Ayla’s fingertips trembled as she quietly opened the exit door outside of his line of sight and saw Ed stepping out with a low posture.

Given the circumstances, yes.

All Ayla and Taylor gave him were resentment and hatred, but he was risking his life for them.

Pride and resentment blinded my eyes, so I didn’t have time to think about it properly, but when I took a step back and thought about it, it was always like that.

In the first place, it was also because Ed Rosteiler wasn’t the type to show condescension to such things.

Feeling the sensation of having a thorn stuck in her throat, Ayla continued to swallow her breath. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t that difficult a conclusion.

Rather than being an arrogant and self-indulgent fallen aristocrat, he was a solid and reticent person who didn’t pay much attention to what he did… he was such a heavy human being.

After admitting that, I feel like I’ve let go of a lot.

I have no choice but to admit how prematurely I have been judging others.

Ayla… she had no choice but to stand still facing the bars.

*

In the main meeting room of the Trix Hall, there were not that many people gathered in spite of its size.

Due to the fact that the sale of the seal is not a fact to be proud of, the seal ceremony was scheduled to be held on a very small scale and simple.

That’s why it was carried out quietly and secretly, with only a few heads of academic affairs and a few heads of commerce.

Principal Obel Forciers

Vice Principal Rachel

Combat Division Dean Stan

Ministry of Magic Dean McDowell

Dean of the Ministry of Pensions Edelweiss

Induction Ceremony Director Glast

Clerk Claire

Lortel Kecheln, full-authority representative of Elte Corporation.

Head of business area Tanya

accounting agent veneer

Archivist Tars

secretary melania

Bachelor and above. A scene where only the tops of each group are gathered.

Among them, the ones who drew the most attention were the representatives of each group, Obel and Lortel.

The impressions of the two were so clearly different that it could be said to be diametrically opposed.

Obel Forcius looked young, innocent, and easy-going, not befitting the title of headmaster of this huge Sylvania.

His short-cropped hair and beardless face make it difficult to guess his age. It is hard to see him as an elderly gentleman who is approaching 60.

As a talent who mastered all fields of combat, magic, and alchemy, his name was high, and he was as big as his reputation. He is wearing a gorgeous robe with the seal of Sylvania, but his broad shoulders do not lose his presence.

On the other hand, the plenipotentiary agent of the upper house is too small. However, the bewitching appearance that does not fit the small size is a rose if you dare to compare it to a flower.

If you approach it hastily, bewitched by its fragile appearance, as if it could be broken with a single gesture, you will be stabbed by a thorn and see blood flowing.

Dimpled auburn hair. Overall, the frill dress and semi-lobe are gorgeous, but are moderately restrained.

Even in front of Obel, whose age, height, years of experience, experience, strength, and horsepower all differ by several times, he does not show any signs of being crushed.

Rather, Lortel quietly opened her mouth… and started questioning the staff at the bachelor’s side.

“Respected Principal Obel. Before I am a merchant, I am a student of this great Sylvania Academy. I will never forget to pay due respect at all times to the academic staff who teach me valuable things. But… The situation is a problem before students and teachers, right?”

The employees of the Chamber of Commerce, who followed Lortel to the scene, shuddered. Lortel’s anger is always cold.

What Lortel Kecheln hates the most is breach of contract.

Even if there is any force majeure mixed in, if things do not go according to the terms of the contract, we must find and investigate the person in charge.

The reason why young Lortel’s leadership can bind the entire company together and make it move as one body is precisely because of its clarity.

Not befitting her calm and beautiful appearance, her actions are always ruthless and cold-blooded.

It is terribly realistic, leaving little room for compromise once the course has been set.

Thanks to its thorough temperament, the company’s employees have rarely seen Lortel sign unfavorable contracts or make high-risk investments.

This contract, which raised the purchase amount more than necessary, seemed strange.

“To think that the sealed letter was stolen at a place where all the key personnel of the bachelor’s college were gathered… If this transaction had not been carried out so quietly… it would have been a great insult.”

“All the search personnel are out, so please wait a little bit. The school will take responsibility and bring back the seal.”

Even if it is an equal contractual relationship, first of all, it is the position of the student and the principal.

Lortel wasn’t more rude than necessary, but she had to say something.

I looked up and saw the center of the Trix Hall meeting room.

The description of the situation is not too complicated.

While the sealing ceremony was in progress for a while, after confirming that principal Obel’s transponder response had been cut off… a large-scale visual obstruction magic was manifested in the main meeting room.

Smoke obscuring the vision rose, intense light blinded the eyes, and various roars rang out, making the scene instantly a mess.

It was so noisy that it must have resonated outside. Nearby students and faculty members were also gathering in the Trix building. The plan to proceed secretly is half ruined.

After that, all kinds of demonic golems rose up and started attacking the surroundings at random. In a way, it was a dangerous situation, but the bachelor’s staff gathered together were all strong, so it wasn’t a big threat.

After sorting out the situation, it seemed that Professor Glast, who was against the sale of the sealed book, had taken an arbitrary action.

Currently, Professor Glast has stolen the seal and disappeared.

He was a senior professor who had been with him for over 15 years, and he knew so well how the bachelor’s office worked, so it was really easy to hit the bachelor’s back.

Professor Glast has a long career and many achievements that would not be strange even if he became the dean right away.

The value he placed on the seal was so great that he refused even a promotion and immersed himself in the research of the seal as a research position.

I didn’t know that I would take such an arbitrary action ahead of the sale of the seal. So he didn’t know what he was going to do with the seal.

“I don’t think Professor Glast took the sealed seal just for its monetary value… It seems there must be some purpose.”

“I guess.”

Obel brushed his chin and sat quietly at a table on the side of the meeting room that had become a mess.

Sitting comfortably without recognizing the gaze of the surroundings, it seems that it is quite far from authority.

“Now that the situation has come to this, it would be right to tell the upper house the least facts.”

Anyway, the people gathered here are top managers who are close to the top in each group. Obel should have taken that fact into consideration as well.

“No matter what Professor Glast is planning, it’s certain that those words won’t be very good. So why not wait a little bit. Even if it takes time, I’ll take responsibility for the seal itself and secure it again.”

“What do you mean by that?”

A feeling of frustration rose up inside Lortel’s chest.

Obel Forcius, the principal of this Sylvania Academy, is truly a monster who has risen to the ranks of masters in every way.

Whether it’s actual fighting power or magical ability, the only person who can properly compare with this Obel is the lazy genius Lucy Mayril of the first year, even if I think of the bachelor’s faculty and students.

So, if Obel Forcius walked out on his own, it was obvious that Glast would be overpowered in an instant, no matter what he did.

However, Obel only gives search instructions to the staff and does not intend to go out directly.

Lortel, who saw that, wanted to ask you to come forward and bring the sealed letter, but… No matter how much, the difference in position is ambiguous to pursue that far.

So Lortel listened intently to hear what he was saying. A fact that was hard to believe pierced his ears.

“Professor Glast’s research through Aspect Magic is traditionally forbidden magic in the field of ‘resurrection’.”

Even if there is no end to the meaning of academics, there were definitely magic fields that were considered taboo in the long history of magic.

The three major fields that twist and break the providence of the world, obscure the current flow of time, and reject the framework of human destiny.

Seeking eternal life, reviving the dead, going back in time.

It is accepted as a taboo to reject the will of God given to the human race and challenge the providence by twisting and breaking fate.

No matter how much magic that deals with time itself is constellation-type magic, it is not acceptable to twist and break the already established past.

Although it seems that no magician has reached that level in the first place.

“I… knew about it, but neglected it. Principal?”

“That’s a dubious matter. I’ve received all the reports on Professor Glast’s research records, but I can’t openly report such erroneous research in writing. I just guessed it… Now I’m sure. He’s a habit. Just like that, I praised the great sage Sylvania.”

Considering the reports related to Professor Glast’s research performance, his past history, actions, and tendencies, we can think that way enough. I just couldn’t be sure.

Lortel quickly turned her head to see the expressions on the faces of the other academic staff.

Vice Principal Rachel and Chief Dean McDowell are gently closing their eyes.

However, the other staff at the bachelor’s office were wide-eyed as if it had never been heard of. Even among the academic staff, it was a top secret that only those in the know knew.

“I don’t want to say anything bad, but… Principal Orbel…”

“You want to ask if I’m crazy, Lortel Kecheln? But… I’m curious about Professor Glast’s final choice, at least.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Do you remember what Professor Glast used to say? Anguish over academic progress. Respect for the great sage Sylvania, who was a true intellectual, and… remorse for what was lost.”

From Lortel’s point of view, who knew about Professor Glast’s past, these were words that could not be overlooked.

“Every human being lives by lying to himself to some extent.”

A maniacal obsession with talent. That was one sentence that defined the person Professor Glast.

However, Lortel is also guessing to some degree.

Could that obsession really be the true essence of Professor Glast?

Or, is it simply a self-defense mechanism born from the pain of loss?

A maniacal obsession with thinking that no value should be given to vague and fleeting talents.

The essence of the meaning, which is very self-righteous and even seems sublime on one side, may have been simpler than expected.

It may have been just the result of such fleeting paternal love, that the death of his daughter, whom he met because he had no talent, should not be in vain.

A supreme scholar or a grieving father?

Unable to quickly define Professor Glast, Lortel was overcome with confusion.

“If he really did find an Aspect Magic that could revive the dead.”

Sylvania, a rare saint and great sage who will accelerate the progress of the world and dramatically advance the history of magic.

My daughter, Myuri, who believed in her ambiguous talent and pushed it recklessly, met a cruel death.

“Who do you think Professor Glast… will bring back to life?”

Lortel looked up into Obel’s eyes.

Lortel couldn’t figure out what kind of scene those eyes that were as deep as the sea were looking at.

– Bang!

“It’s a big deal, Principal Obel! Witness information came from the school building! Ten minutes ago, Professor Glast, who was fleeing toward the underground canal, was said to have been chased by a student named Taily!”

“According to eyewitness testimony, he not only kidnapped the seal, but also the student! Identification has been established… Ayla Tris, 1st year of the Ministry of Magic… and Ed Rosteeler, the 2nd year of the Ministry of Magic!”

– Quaaaaaaaaang!

It was the moment when Lortel doubted her ears at the reports of the bachelor’s staff who rushed in.

A tremendous roar reverberated through the sky above the gallows. The vibration that followed was the same.

Seeing the ground shake for an instant, Lortel ran out into the hallway and opened the window.

The Trix Hall is located on a hill outside of Professor Dong. If you open the window and look down, you can see the whole view of Eolchu Professor Dong.

Near the coastline on the outskirts of Aken Island, where the entrance to the underground canal is located, I see a high-ranking spirit that I know so well that I am tired of it.

Even though it would be far away in terms of distance, its gigantic body is clearly visible even in this Trix building.

Higher Fire Spirit Tarkan.

It was the terrifying fire lizard that the 1st year ace members were afraid to subdue only after all the members jumped in.

The tail slaps and roars are emitted, as if a group is urging someone to bring them right away.

Even if it only takes one high-level spirit, it can be subdued without damage only when all the high-ranking students jump out.

I don’t know what will happen if I leave it alone.

It is unlikely that there will be any damage inside the Sylvania Academy as they head to the outskirts of Aken Island.

However, in the worst case, the sealed seal may be lost due to being caught up in a ruckus.

Since the payment has not yet been paid anyway, even if the seal is lost, there will be no direct loss on the books. There may be lost revenue, but it is not a deficit.

But… no matter how much I want the seal… I really want it…!

“Oh really…!”

Lortel finally sighed and tore her hair. So, nothing works out right.

“This is what happened… I’m going to the underground water canal…!”

“yes?”

“Agent, what about the ceremony?”

The merchant’s staff looked at Lortel in surprise, but Lortel shook her head.

And Lortel glared at Principal Obel. It’s a pretty rude look, but Obel doesn’t even seem to care.

“Since the headmaster is consistent with such an indifferent attitude, I’ll have to go and get the seal myself. All but the minimum negotiators follow me! Hehe!”

It was five minutes before the welcome party. It was only a matter of time before Ed’s outfit burst.

Could Professor Glast be the biggest victim?

It is largely because the information given to him was too limited to accuse him of hasty judgment that he kidnapped a more time bomb than Ayla.

There was no one to ask for silence.

reverse run.

Trix Hall – Professor’s Chase Road – Underground Waterway Entrance – Deepest Underground Waterway – Secret Lab Entrance – Spirit Library – Monster Research Building – Deepest Labyrinth The route of the final chapter scenario leading to a series of flows is familiar, but I’m going to reverse that route Going out is another amazing experience.

Maybe Taylor is on a straight run, so you’ll be able to bump into it somewhere in the middle.

I jumped out from the deepest part of the laboratory and carefully passed the monster research building.

It wasn’t that difficult to break through the monster research building. This is because most monsters are confined to research facilities, and there are not many resident personnel. This part is difficult because Kum frees all the monsters trapped in the research facility. There are no other obstacles now.

The problem is the soul library.

The librarian Reina, who guards the Soul Library, has a keen eye and is good at detection magic. It took her a long time to sneak in even Mug, a low-level spirit with weak energy.

I put my back to the back door of the library and glanced inside.

Bookshelves and magic books floating in the air.

And it’s full of all kinds of valuable magic engineering supplies and recipes.

I have a chimney-like desire to sweep everything that came this far and go there. It’s right to pack everything you need to, since the traffic lines overlap anyway.

Right now, the priority is to escape this lab and meet Yenika, so let’s pick out the most efficient ones and skip them. out of sight of Rayna.

[Boy Ed! Are you… are you drooling…? ]

“…”

I quickly adjusted my expression and checked the items I needed to bring.

Reina’s patrol patterns and behavior patterns are simpler than expected. It won’t take too long to get everything together.

I’m a little excited to think of it as an opportunity to actually boost my magic engineering proficiency.

Even so, the rise in specs is sluggish these days. If you procure the materials well, it is an opportunity to create magic items with specifications that should not exist at the level of Acts 2 and 3. My heart thumped.

In any case, it is difficult to be too immersed in taking care of manufacturing and engineering supplies.

First of all, you just have to squeeze in as much as you can put into your body right away, and after Taylor passes, come back and take care of it slowly. For now, meeting Yenika is the priority.

Still, the feeling of a windfall did not subside easily.

It’s a bargain sale…!!

“Where is Ed?”

Dorothy Whitefelts, mid-boss of Act 2, Phase 2 of Glast Subjugation.

She was proud enough of her abilities.

Dorothy, a 3rd year student, was a combat class alchemist who was well-recognized by the alchemy department society.

It wasn’t until the top of the class, but it rose to the top of the pension department.

Dorothy’s combat power, using all sorts of combat reagents, instant chemical reactions, and mass-produced magical engineering supplies, was at a level that even the students of the Combat Division would find difficult.

Elvirana, chief of the pension department in the first year, and Norden, the chief of the pension department in the second year, often came to ask for instruction.

To such Dorothy, Professor Glast, who recognized her once-unopened talent, was truly her benefactor.

Professor Glast, who had affirmed Dorothy alone when everyone else underestimated Dorothy’s abilities… I thought that there must be something in this seemingly radical action.

So, Dorothy gladly joined Professor Glast’s plan.

I don’t know the exact intention, but I decided to thoroughly fulfill his request to guard the entrance to the underground water.

“…”

Anyway, that’s not it, Professor.

Dorothy, who was so monologue, had to face Tarkan’s mouth as he roared as if to set the world on fire while sitting down in the shallow stream at the mouth of the waterway.

“Where is Ed?”

I know who that pink-haired girl is. She is a princess in a fairy tale who is loved by all undergraduates.

It is said that where she walks, flowers bloom along the way. She says that her lively and blooming smile makes her heart warm to the viewer.

That warm smile is still there.

Her smiling face is so dainty and cute that if you’re not careful, your hand will reach out and stroke your hair.

However, no one will be able to do that.

In the background of her looking up, a giant lizard is dripping with saliva that is on fire.

Yenika Tan is asking as politely and kindly as possible, but the sense of distance from the background eventually increases the sense of fear.

“Yes, Yenika! So! I’m just guarding this place! I was just instructed! Yes!”

Startled, Dorothy stuttered.

“Yeah, that’s right… Ah, that, come to think of it. He’s a 3rd year senior. Bar, sorry for speaking rudely… I’m distracted…!”

A reaction that agrees with Dorothy’s words. And a polite apology.

Only then did Dorothy realize that her partner was the good Jenika of that world, and almost put her mind at ease…

“By the way… where’s Ed?”

Apart from the kind Jenika of the world… It was certain that the blazing lizard’s heat would have no mercy against Dorothy.

Dorothy’s arms gave way and she fell over.
