Episode 3

lazy afternoon.

“Oh, indeed.”

The library, which is called the flower of summertime, and on the 1st floor, only the basics of the basics are carefully selected.

[Basic Property Theory]

“Well.”

I nodded and closed the book. understanding is over.

“Have you ever seen such an ugly head?”

Wisdom level 3 is not possible because of this.

As the situation was not going well, my mouth became more and more harsh, but I realized that sometimes it doesn’t matter if I say these things.

“You must be very frustrated.”

“The way you get angry is cool too!”

“I want you to curse at me too… … .”

You seem to think that harsh words coming out of my mouth are like thorns on a rose.

‘It doesn’t come into my head.’

Anyway, I’ve never heard that I can’t study anywhere.

I went to college with a proud signboard, and I lived at my parents’ house during the holidays without ever having to let my parents down.

Even so, it took more than thirty minutes to realize one of the most basic theories. one, not one. Two by the number of pages.

At this point, it’s certain.

‘This guy is dull.’

Maybe it was natural.

It’s Rockstrin, who must have received an education that was not inferior to Aindarok, a famous magician and great aristocrat.

Since it had a definite ‘setup’ that all abilities were only level 3, Rockstrin had no choice but to become a dunjae to fill the gap.

There are even bigger problems.

I made the game, but I didn’t study the magic in the game.

In other words, I have no memory of Rockstrin. You have to learn it all over again from scratch.

It went dark before my eyes!

“Why are you holding the basic property theory?”

“Isn’t it a repetition?”

“No, look at that uncomfortable expression. I think you must have found something big wrong!”

“Ugh! It was used as a textbook for 300 years?”

“Leiden guys, I knew that.”

It was a conversation I could hear as I banged my head against a pillar with a grim face.

That was one of the only physical advantages of this body. Needless to say, the ears are bright.

“I will rent it.”

“Basic attribute theory, basic magic theory, understanding of fire, understanding of water, understanding of wind, understanding of soil. Six books in all, right?”

“Do I have to recite that?”

“Ah, I made a big mistake… … . sorry!”

I borrowed 6 basic books.

If I go on like this, I will become a new student at the magic academy who can’t even use magic.

Even if you can’t serve one person in a big event, you can’t be a burden with a minus.

I have to study.

“Yes, all four attributes?”

“Even the double attribute alone is amazing!”

“Or are you trying to create an entirely new theory?”

“Ah, whatever it is. I’m a freshman… … .”

Think freely.

The bigger the misunderstanding, the better.

That will increase my chances of surviving. It’s all over when Rocktrin’s lousy talent is exposed.

The first priority is to be able to use at least one proper attack magic.

‘Even with the simplest 1-star magic, one person can be easily killed.’

It’s just like what Whiraine said.

It’s a word that anyone in Summer Turge lightly goes up and down saying magic, magic, but in reality it’s quite terrifying.

Shouldn’t I secure enough power to protect my body before the episode starts?

‘That’s also a problem.’

These are boys and girls who are only about 16 years old, but if you look closely, each of them has the firepower of more than one rifle.

I’d rather have a rifle

Some of them have no bolts, and maybe not even rifles, they are grenades without safety pins.

If you touch it, it’s bung-

Bad ending right away.

If you want to resent it, you should resent the creator who made the game’s difficulty that way.

i hate myself too

“The magic formula is largely divided into three stages: attribute, form, and solution… … .”

Returning to my room, I began reading the theory book.

I don’t know what the original owner of this body might have been like, but I’m confident in studying with my ass tight.

Class starts in three days, and there is no schedule during that time.

Going outside more than this will not produce good results.

Studying itself is difficult, but I know the answer to the question of ‘how to do it’.

It’s enough to beat the time so that even the stupidest head can understand it.

inexhaustibility.

7:55 p.m.

The Garden of the Tower of Truth is on the 10th floor.

Not only the Tower of Truth, but also the Tower of Freedom and the Tower of Justice.

There are no rooms on the 10th floor of all three towers, and there is a wide garden, rest area, and convenience facilities for students. This is also why the 10th floor became an open boundary among students.

I like being close to the 10th floor.

“You look tired.”

“Oh, you came first. sorry. I said I’d wait.”

“it’s okay. I just came too.”

Even in spring, the night wind is cold.

The garden on the 10th floor is open on all sides and is very wide, so there are times when we have to meet and find each other and find ourselves in a funny situation.

Maybe that’s why, despite having just arrived, the flushed cheeks stood out. How are you?

“That’s because, as I said before, it’s not really that great.”

“But you’re saying there was a need to make room?”

“So it is.”

Actually, I didn’t think at the time what to say after calling him out. It was the same until 5 minutes ago.

Because there was no need for that.

I came up with an excuse to cover it up while going down from the 12th floor to the 10th floor.

It doesn’t even matter what you say in the first place.

“I heard something from my father.”

I leaned my arms against the railing.

Summer Turge was created by carving a mountain, and the three dormitories are located on the highest elevation within the site. Of course, the Tower of Truth is the highest.

Therefore, if you look down, you can see the entire campus and even the city in the distance.

[Dim lights shimmer over the mist. It was like a star floating on the ground. The lights at night are precious, but that’s why there’s so much emotion that makes your heart feel full.]

The main character was assigned to the Tower of Freedom, but if the scenery I see now is better than that, it won’t be worse.

“The Marquis?!”

“okay.”

Hira was genuinely surprised.

Coltman Aindarlock is someone. Corps Commander of the Imperial Army Magic Corps, Lieutenant General Coltman Aindarok.

He is an unmistakable powerhouse of the Imperial Army, and he is a giant whose words can make a mountain disappear overnight.

The same Coltman, who has the reputation of being the ‘Black Wolf of the North’, saying that he would never have anything to do with a central politician like Yuxilla?

“He said that it is not good to keep too much distance, in the same position as defending the border.”

“then… … .”

Not the same.

The weight is different.

The western part of the empire is the sea, and the northern part is a mountain hell full of monsters.

It is said that it is impossible to overlook the vigilance of the ocean, but comparing it to the north is not worth half a penny.

“Well, my father is such a person, so even if I have no choice, I must mean that I should get along well with my friends.”

Hira Yuxilla is the daughter of a great noble and marquess.

Politics in the center is ferocious and insidious, and it is said that dozens of spears and knives move after a single word.

To look into the other person’s eyes, to see their hand gestures, to catch even smaller movements, to discern truth from lies or hidden intentions.

To find a loophole and stab it.

I have always been taught that way.

“Yeah, that’s right.”

but it is not visible

can’t see

He builds a friendship with the Aindar Locke family, who say that even the royal family does not dare to do anything. Perhaps it is the dream of every politician in the world.

only sixteen years of age.

It is a cruel thing to cross the wall of such a happy dream and the wall of the devil in front of you to determine the truth of the words.

First of all, you will think that there is no reason to deceive yourself. Aside from being a marquis, isn’t her appearance exceptionally pretty?

“To put it simply, it might sound a bit silly. We just want to be friends.”

stretch out your hand lightly

Hira suddenly held hands. Without knowing what will happen in the future.

It’s not that I don’t have a pricked conscience, so I pointed over the railing and said.

“What do you see?”

“yes? I do not know. I do not know… … .”

To think of something else, because the presence of Rockstrin right in front of me is too overwhelming.

Starlight on the ground goes out one by one.

I laughed bitterly.

“The wind is cold.”

“It’s not that cold… … .”

“Go in first. I’m going to wait a little longer.”

“Go, be careful not to catch a cold!”

It seems that he managed to understand that he wanted to be alone. Hira embraced her high expectations and left the garden.

I was also cold, but I just felt like I needed some cold wind.

Could there be any other better way… … .

Well. If there was, it wouldn’t have been more efficient than this. I always have to choose the correct answer.

I need money.

Other powerful means to make up for the lack of military force for the capture of the episode.

There is no character more suitable than Hira Yuxilla.

“you.”

oops

There was a sharp voice in the back of his head. This was unexpected.

I turned around with a shy smile like a child caught doing something bad.

“See you again.”

A child in loose pajamas seemed to like the princess’s body.

Although she was on the 15th floor, the top floor, she was also staying in the Tower of Truth, so she was able to come down to the garden on the 10th floor.

So I made an appointment late on purpose, but why did this guy who slept a lot come down?

“I thought you wouldn’t do anything bad. I was betrayed before the sun went down.”

“What about it?”

“Do you really not know? I know, but are you pretending not to know?”

Her hair, which had been beautifully curled during the day, was half loose.

Ai-nim walked over, messing with her messy hair, and jumped up on a table, not a chair, and sat down.

Ai-nim’s gorgeous blonde hair, shining in the moonlight, was a clear contrast to my dull hair color.

Anyway, it would have been heard by the child tomorrow morning anyway, so nothing will change, but I feel a little upset because I feel like I was arrested on the spot.

“Are you sure you can fix it?”

“There is not.”

“You are not lying.”

Well, when I was a child, I would have realized what I had done.

At least, it’s a shame that Rockstrin’s charm is level 10. It was no wonder that he was scorned.

“do not do that.”

“Why?”

“Hira is my friend. I think I’ve matured a little, so it’s cute? Are you going to buy clothes too? Do you sometimes do your hair for Maria?”

I didn’t answer.

for me to live

In addition, to save everyone.

Do you understand this deep meaning, kid? That’s not a friend.

“Then don’t bother me. Understand?”

“Because my nose has grown to three.”

“What do you mean, that?”

“There is such a thing.”

Although it was a long line, it didn’t feel very desperate. Or do you know that you won’t listen to me?

Shaking her legs far short of the floor, the child was looking across the railing.

“Can I ask you one question?”

“What?”

“What are you looking at?”

“Sky, I came out to see you, but you are covering it from the front. Move.”

As soon as I saw the waving gesture, I burst into laughter. I’m not sure why.

“I think we can be friends.”

“Eh, I hate it! go away!”

I returned to the room laughing. Get closer and a knife comes up to your throat again.

* * *

Three days flew by.

In the meantime, I have not left the Tower of Truth. There was nothing difficult.

If you’re hungry, Jinridang is on the second floor, and if you’re looking to get some fresh air, there’s a garden on the 10th floor.

All the time given was devoted to understanding the six books borrowed.

Rockstrin was a terrible blunt.

Or that I’ve grown a little older and have lost my youthful intelligence. Could it be!

It’s all because Wisdom is level 3.

“Huh, Rockstrin?”

That’s clearly a difference.

Rockstrin was a single flower that bloomed on top of a cliff. Because no one tried to get close to it, it was an existence that could not be approached first.

But now things have changed.

“why?”

Rockstrin has now come down on its own.

The fact that I first suggested a midnight tryst to Hira must have been known for the past three days.

Even if there weren’t many witnesses, Hera herself would have spread it. So there were students who gradually started talking.

“Are you okay with the time?”

Someone approached me with a blushing face… … no matter what someone says

I only looked at the status for a moment, but the name was not memorable.

I don’t have time to spend on this guy.

“sorry. busy.”

“That, is it? Sorry!”

He responded coldly without even a commercial smile.

There are already ten people who have been kicked out like that. Among them, there were definitely people who I desperately needed, who could be of help to me.

Sorry but it’s on hold for now.

“First class at 1 o’clock, right?”

“It is. There are no classes until the first semester, so I guess everyone listens in the main lecture room.”

There are only about 500 students per grade at Summer Turge.

It seems like a simple scale compared to a gathering of excellent dream wizards from all over the continent, but wizards are rare.

Also, the magic academy isn’t the only place in Summer.

Ahead of such a memorable first class.

“Kanin Mage Altain… … ? Is this someone I know?”

Students gathered in front of the bulletin board in the first grade lecture hall.

I only overheard the conversation from a distance.

Professional lectures do not take place until class divisions are made. There are not many because it is simply to inspire students’ interest and enthusiasm for learning.

Instead, the faculty alone was jaw-dropping.

“How many people have been given the middle name of Meiji. would be the same person It’s amazing that you’re still alive.”

“why? who?”

“Kanin? Kanin from that fairy tale?”

Crackle.

An old man with white hair writes down his name with power.

Kanin Mage Artine.

Among the non-students, he is the most important character along with dean Yurain.

I drew an impression that looked better and warmer than Wirain, but it was just as expected.

“It’s Kanin.”

Introduction was short.

In a way, it was natural. There is no one who has dabbled in magic and does not know its name.

“I don’t really like the cowards of Summer Turge.”

Kanin lightly raised the topic.

The children were stiff. It was because the memory of the orientation was still there.

Fortunately, Kanin’s voice was mild, unlike Wirain’s.

“Of course I am not talking about your students. I mean, self-appointed teachers. Including Wee Lane.”

It cannot be denied that both are great magicians, but Kanin is 20 years older than Yulein.

Truly, the very existence itself is a legendary archmage. Even with that arrogant remark, no one dared to throw up.

“I will be eighty-two this year. I was holding the Confederate lines until three months ago.”

This is the first time Kanin has been to Summer Turge.

“Today is no different. This old man can go back and fight right now. But the professors here are all decades younger than me.”

“I have nightmares every night.”

“A lot of young people die senselessly to the things that will be swept away with one movement of this old hand.”

“Also, while awake, I worry. Wouldn’t my vacancy have taken away a bright future from some young man?”

“Hehe, isn’t he going to die of old age anyway? As for what is more important, this one life is insignificant compared to any one of you.”

Kanin laughed lightly, but no one sympathized with the laugh.

He said, looking around the crowd.

“Have you ever watched a battlefield clash with monsters? Please raise your hand.”

No one willingly raised their hand.

The empire doesn’t tolerate the invasion of monsters, so it’s not easy to see them.

However, in other kingdoms, monsters are commonly seen while going to and from the city. It meant watching.

“What good. I heard that the son of Margrave Aindarlock, the proud shield of our empire, is here.”

I’m very used to it from here on out.

Because it’s the first part where Rockstar Aindarlocke appears. The most recently inserted script.

It’s better to follow the rules of history than to miss a handful of appearances and let them affect the story I know.

“It’s Rockstrin.”

Wow-

It wouldn’t be a conscious sound.

All the students in the classroom exclaimed. I’m used to it now and it doesn’t matter.

Maybe if I farted right away, wouldn’t the same reaction come out?

“okay. you may have watched Coltman surely would have done that.”

“Yes.”

“What did you see?”

Rockstrin doesn’t go outside for a while, but it’s a simple setup that Coltman forcibly took him to the front line when he was young.

“It was terrible.”

“Hmm, is that all?”

“There were raids throughout the night, and many people were killed or injured while my father was away.”

“and?”

Excluding the formidable appearance, this is the only character trait of this body.

Even if it’s a laughing stock in a game, it’s a memory imprinted like a trauma to Rockstrin. It was as simple as reciting the script line by line.

“Empty vials roll around.”

[Occasionally, looking at the contents, it seems that there was no effect.]

“The red-stained bandages are all over the place like garbage.”

[I don’t know if it stopped the bleeding or sucked the blood. Or was it originally a red cloth?]

“A soldier holds a cross section of his severed right arm with a torch held in his left hand.”

[Blood flows from the bitten lower lip. Surprisingly, the soldier did not scream.]

“An old woman is holding her head and crying.”

[I realized after a while that it was a human head that was half crushed and charred.]

By that time, I was also immersed.

Even after a few hours, these innocent children will quickly run around the campus with bright faces.

“I couldn’t tell if the people lying on the bed were corpses or still living people.”

“Because someone with nothing below his waist was screaming incessantly.”

“The person who thought he was sleeping with his limbs intact was because his father had a huge hole in his chest when he took the cloth off.”

“My father ran out of the barracks and I was left alone.”

“I covered my ears.”

“Fortunately, neither the screams nor the cries lasted long.”

A heavy silence settled in the classroom. maybe someone will know

“The barracks went quiet in less than 10 minutes.”

That this is the future they must face.
