Episode 55
Over the weekend, I was busy building a survival strategy. Because the guy who ‘might be a dangerous guy’ has been upgraded to a ‘dangerous guy.’
“Is this what walking on thin ice is like…? … .”
I don’t know what Valencidis’s purpose is (he’s a talented person like me who doesn’t need to learn anything at school), but finding out his purpose is now a thing of the past and the risk of death is the immediate problem.
Socrafres.
– You can inherit your ‘unique magic’ research progress in the surrounding environment.
– Progress 44.8%
If there is anything that can be of great comfort in this situation, is the progress of unique magic? I think I raised close to 4% in this outing alone.
“As expected, if you fight against strong guys, the price goes up? “Warlocks have a lot of bonuses.”
What Libeni, who has the exact same appearance as Lin, said at the end also bothers me. It’s a vessel to receive Rin’s soul… … .
‘I don’t know what I’m doing with my soul, but it’s all in vain.’
I don’t think there’s much need to worry about this part, for now. Because Rin’s soul is already in this body.
The issue that needs to be focused on is student council president Valencidis.
Should I hit on that guy and ask him why he was making ‘Lin’?
‘no.’
That is not a good option as my body has not fully recovered from the poison.
‘More than anything, that guy… … .’
The feeling itself was different from Liveni, whose goal was one-sided slaughter. Didn’t that guy’s actions make her even more curious about Tureina?
“Bonus, bonus, bonus.”
Pipi, who was pecking at the corn kernels scattered on the desk, followed my words.
I was worried about this guy too.
Pipi definitely showed great power against lower-middle-level monsters, but he could not use much power against the truly powerful. Especially now that I am old.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have brought you.”
I collapsed onto the desk and sighed. Fifi, perhaps angry that she had dropped her corn kernels, jabbed Lane’s cheek with her beak.
“Oh, sorry, I was wrong!”
and… … There was also a problem so big that it was comparable to the problem of the student council president. While walking around the campus during school hours, you could hear these whispers.
“Hey, did you hear? “I heard Professor Elin was kidnapped by the ‘Golden Children.’”
“Wow, really?”
“Have you studied black magic at all?”
Aunt Elin, who risked her life to protect me, was experiencing cracks in her reputation.
As he did not show up at school even after the holidays, this suspicion seemed to be gradually increasing.
‘I guess I’ll have to do something… … .’
He jokes around a lot, a lot, but he’s a good person. And if you think about it, this incident happened because of me.
Hehe, Rain let out a big sigh and walked towards Yongryun Hall.

“Prince Lane, are you requesting a meeting with the President?”
The secretary in the president’s office tilted her head as if wondering. Until now, no one had ever boldly requested a meeting with the president.
“Should I say it’s a hardship as a senior cadet… … Anyway, I want to ask you something, how can I not?”
This was a matter that was so outside of conventional wisdom that I thought it would naturally be rejected by both the person who applied and the person who delivered it.
“Who requested the interview?”
However, the secretary went into the president’s office and asked about his intentions.
“This is Lane Ludwig.”
A strange sight caught the eye of Madelia Page, who was mechanically giving final approval to various city management issues and academic reports.
“It’s fun, tell them to come in.”
Just like that, the meeting with the president was established so simply that the secretary stopped to think for a moment out of sheer absurdity.
The president’s office was a room with brilliant sunlight streaming in from eight sides.
It was a room with a sad history, built by the founder of magic, Emitsa Page, because she wanted to bathe her entire body in the light of the black sun, Karenden.
‘Wow, this is where the first wise man lived…’ … .’
As I looked around the room from the living room sofa, my eyes shining, a beautiful woman with a dignified appearance crossed her legs at the head table and held up a teacup.
“This is the first time you and I have talked together like this, isn’t it?”
“Yes, President.”
“Caven and Brim, are they okay?”
“Yes, you are strong.”
“joy.”
Lane straightened his back, slightly nervous.
Her light blue hair shines like a jewel under the sunlight. Likewise, his purple eyes had a noble majesty, and there were no ripples in his demeanor.
The hair on her head stood on end in the magic of the heroine who reigned supreme among the new generation of wizards (Skalzi and Marhena were of the old generation).
“I heard a lot of stories from various professors. “In particular, your professor, Owen, was constantly praising you.”
“yes?”
It would have been more shocking to have heard that Owen had announced that he would quit exercising. He said he was the type of person who didn’t even praise his parents… … .
“It’s not just Owen. There are several people who recommended you. “Okay, so what did you come to see me for?”
It’s not a bad idea to cut away the twigs and get straight to the point. If you’re a wizard, you should always have this kind of disposition.
Explained briefly and concisely.
About borrowing Tureina’s books, about getting caught by the interrogator when I was trying to return them, and about Elin being arrested instead of me to protect me.
“… … So, it’s because of me that your aunt was captured.”
“okay.”
“Can you do something to avoid putting my aunt at a disadvantage? “As president.”

Madelia’s eyes narrowed as she listened to the story while sipping her teacup.
“I don’t think this is a matter of discussing your aunt’s treatment right now? “Your treatment is something that needs to be discussed.”
“… … .”
“You knew that first graders could not borrow books, but you took advantage of your status as the eldest son of the family. “If this is easily forgiven, the school’s rules will not stand up.”
As I faced Madelia’s sharp eyes, I had a momentary thought: Oops.
Did my aunt protect me because of this, not because of the heresy issue? I swallowed dry saliva.
It’s important from here… … The sound of the clock turning on the wall irritated my ears.
“So I came here wondering if I could make a deal.”
Then Madelia, who had been staring at Lane in silence, raised her eyebrows as if she was interested.
“transaction? You and Me?”
“I am the current chief cadet of
Madelia took a deep breath as if she was both amused and surprised by Lane’s bold words.
‘There are usually two reactions from chicks who face me… … .’
Either they are so intimidated that they stutter for words, or they are so overwhelmed with fear that they are unable to say anything.
Is it just chicks?
There was no difference between the current wizards who had chosen a magic profession. But this guy… … What do you mean you have no problem speaking?
– I heard your son is called a retired Confucius.
I once said that to Kavan Ludwig when we were sharing the same sadness over our children. But Kavan just grinned.
– They’re just not ready to break out of the egg yet.
So all you have to do is wait. With love and faith.
Remembering the voice of her intelligent junior, Madelia smiled, resting her chin on her clasped hands.
“That’s interesting. Let’s at least listen to the story. So, what’s the deal?”
“If you tell me what I can give you, how will it not be coordinated?”
“You are mistaken about something. Now you are the one who has to persuade me with attractive terms… … “No, wait a minute.”
As if something suddenly occurred to her, Madelia put down her teacup and seemed to be thinking seriously about something for a moment before blurting out the story.
“Lane Ludwig, would you be interested in becoming my daughter’s tutor?”
Lane couldn’t believe his ears for a moment.
daughter? tutor?
Come to think of it, I heard from my father that the Page family also had a daughter. He just forgot about it because he never saw it.
But I never imagined it would come out here.
“You know I’m sixteen now, right?”
Page is a madose. No, not just any Madose, but the first Madose who has continued a long lineage from the founder of magic.
When it comes to the Page family’s tutor, it is a natural custom for a wizard who is considered the best at the time to be appointed.
Since there are limits to blood relatives, it would be right for President Madelia to teach me at this age, just like Kavan and Scalzi taught me… … .
“If being the top cadet in this class, known as the golden generation, is itself not proof of outstanding talent, what is? I heard you worked as an assistant under Lord Ludwig of Scalzi for three years?”
“No, anyway… … .”
Teaching others is quite a hassle. I’ve only taught two people so far, but hmm, it feels like I’m wasting the time I could have spent studying.
“If you agree, I will first explain to the school that Elin went on a short business trip somewhere else on my behalf.”
“… … !”
“And I will also withdraw the talk about punishment I mentioned earlier. How do you feel? I’m not asking you to teach for several years. You only need to do it for two or three months. “I don’t think you have anything to lose.”
Since my job is to guide others, I hesitate for a moment, touching my chin.
But it was a deal where you could get everything you wanted. Wasn’t the problem at hand solved surprisingly easily?
How hard can it be to be a tutor?
“great. “Let’s give it a try.”
But I think I should have stopped for a moment and thought deeply at this time.
If there is so much that comes from a transaction, there must be something corresponding to it… … .
That’s how the archmage met the girl.

On the night of returning to Beophwangcheong after completing a five-year expedition, a meteor shower lit up the night sky, ushering in the golden age.
Members of the warrior party looked up at the meteor shower while sitting, leaning, or leaning on the railing of the Beophwangcheong.
“Lin would have really liked it if she had seen this.”
The moment Rista muttered that with a bitter smile, the party members had to shudder in helpless grief.
“Yes, I guess so. “He wanted to make a fuss, but he probably just glared because he was watching us.”
The Fire Dragon’s shaman, Friede, tried to lighten the mood by laughing. And then there was silence again. Everyone just looked up at the rain of shooting stars in a daze.
“It seemed like it would never end, but our journey has finally come to an end.”
The youngest member of the party, Tureina, was the one who got upset at Rista’s remark. The voice was trembling miserably.
“It’s not over.”
“… … ?”
“It’s not over! How on earth can you say something like that! Sabu, Sabu is in such a state… … !”
“Tureina… … .”
“It won’t end, Sabu, until you come back, it won’t end, never…” … !”
Then, without anyone having time to stop her, she ran far away, covering her tears with a hat that was Lin’s keepsake. Keyes and Fifi ran after him.
Friede looked at the back sadly, then exhaled cigarette smoke and looked at Rista.
“What are you going to do now?”
“You have to wait. Until Rin comes back.”
“Rista… … .”
“Lin said he would come back. So it will definitely come. “I just have to wait.”
Friede had to feel a sharp prick of sadness at Lista’s words.
“I know that. but… … “You don’t have much time left to live.”
FakeWarriors, who amplify their power by inhabiting their bodies with the soul of a dragon, gain extra-standard power in exchange for their lifespan.
Here, the average life expectancy of payquariers during wartime was only the mid-20s. Should I live long enough to be in my late 20s?
There, Rista lived on the front lines, always using that power during her five-year journey. Will I be able to live for another 3 years?
“is it?”
But Rista, the hero who has always led her colleagues with a smile as bright as the sun, said this with her silver hair blowing in the night wind and her usual bright smile.
“If it doesn’t work out in this life, wouldn’t it be okay to wait for the next life? If that doesn’t work out, in the next life.”
For a moment, Friede could only look at Rista with wide eyes. It was a while later that bursts of laughter mixed with laughter erupted.
“I can’t stop you, really.”
He leans back against the railing and puffs out cigarette smoke into the night sky.
“You know that was a blasphemous remark, right?”
In fact, the doctrine of the Gwangryong Orthodox Church denied the three lives and preached the providence of heaven and hell. Lista’s remarks were something only pagans would argue.
“Can you close your eyes for once, miko?”
“haha. “Hero, with your bare mouth?”
The two women laughed silently.
In the midst of laughter mixed with joy and sadness, the last shooting star quietly cut through the dew in their eyes.
From that day until the day the heroes of Rista Party passed away, the world entered a golden age.
Like flowers blooming on a grave, upon the death of a boy archmage.
