I couldn’t help but mutter as I looked at the two girls (who were) lying on the ground.

“Is it strange? Why don’t you grow up?”

“… … I think Prince Oz’s way of teaching is strange.”

“You were quiet when you were doing it, but now you’re here?”

As Lucia crosses her arms and looks down at the two fallen people, she silently quips.

If you thought the teaching method was strange, why not stop it in advance? I thought I was doing all this.

“Su, there’s something strange about the master’s standards. I should have known since the last time I used magic on myself… … .”

“… … Did you do that?”

Lucia murmured with a shocked expression.

“No, it’s not wrong, but that alone is misleading.”

What I did was just an experiment.

It was an experiment that he had to go through at least once, so the pain was still worth enduring.

If you think about what’s to come, it’s natural that you’ve had to make sacrifices like this.

“I don’t know where the misunderstanding is… … ? I think I can understand how Prince Oz lived just by hearing those words.”

know what It’s been less than a year since I was kidnapped from this world.

As expected, it is difficult to understand because the explanation of ‘outside beings’ is omitted.

It’s a pity, but I have no choice but to overturn that stigma.

“Can you get these things out of my sight for now?”

“… … Of course Prince Oz shouldn’t have to get rid of the kids, but isn’t the wording too good?”

“Where is the problem?”

“No, that… … no.”

Eleanor couldn’t just groan like this.

If you don’t want to be hurt as much as possible from what will happen in the future, there’s no way you’ll be so helpless.

I hope you at least notice the key you have.

Even if I give my best support, there is a degree.

I don’t want her to be an idiot who can’t do anything.

“You should make it human in a week.”

It won’t work unless Eleanor corrects her peculiar temperament.

When they reach Baekyang, they don’t even think of approaching me.

I don’t know if I was even shocked by the last incident, but it’s not a good habit for a guardian job.

She’s the party wall. When she collapses, everyone collapses.

Even if the relationship is only temporary, as long as she is involved in ＜Goblin’s Forest＞, I cannot leave it alone.

“… … I’ll try to do something for a while, so why don’t you take a break from work for a while?”

“Lucia.”

“… … .”

“Do you remember what I said?”

“Sure… … .”

“Then I’ll leave it to you for the time being.”

As far as checking with [Contemplation], there was no lie. At least Lucia won’t play tricks on Eleanor.

If so, that’s fine.

A soldier who has been professionally trained in the Empire will teach you much better than a guy like me who only knows game-based knowledge.

* * *

Chapter 2 of the main story unexpectedly breaks out when Tia is in ＜Skientia＞. It is said that it was difficult to completely prevent this incident even though it was under the command of [Yongje], who was said to be the safest.

Then, who is the existence that can push the [Song Emperor], who is said to be the strongest in the world view, to such an extent?

There are not many beings in the world who can compete with her.

At least among the guys I know, there are only three of them, excluding a few of the ‘external beings’.

[Myeongwang (冥王)], [Demon King (魔王)] respectively. It is [King Yo].

Yes, it is ‘King’.

If they don’t lead the country or territory in the first place, it’s impossible for them to confront Tia.

In terms of individual strength, none of them can defeat Tia.

However, they are regarded as quite harsh opponents as each of them does not come out with subordinates from their own advantageous heights.

Of course, if the opponent sets foot in Tia’s territory, the odds are nil.

Yes, usually none.

But that’s only when you think of force.

This time, the opponent dared to step into the realm of [Solvent].

“It would be okay to keep him in your eyes beforehand.”

That is Thanatos, the Key Person and [Pyeongwang] that appears in Chapter 2 of this main story.

In the future, I will play tricks from time to time, so it would be good to check in advance.

The guy commits a task to find out why Tia is obsessed with ＜Skientia＞, and Eleanor will be caught up in the aftermath.

Then, how will he step into Tia’s realm?

＜Skientia＞ has a fairly strong barrier.

Even [Myeongwang] can’t pierce that magic in a short time.

And as soon as you touch the barrier, Tia will notice and take action.

That’s why Thanatos had no choice but to attack from the inside.

Just like Tia warned me, it was an inside job.

The interior of ＜Skientia＞ is vulnerable.

It was because of Tia’s arrogance that she thought she would be able to respond to anything a student did at any time.

Of course, no student has the ability to threaten Tia.

“Nice to meet you, Daughter of Death.”

“… … ?”

Tia doesn’t do a lot of background investigations on students who are going to be in her area. It is a result of self-confidence.

There was practically no one who could pose a threat to her, and if there was at least one student with such power, there would be no need to investigate in the first place.

There’s no way someone with that level of skill wouldn’t be known.

Of course, there may be a hidden master of Jaya.

But even if there were such people, would they be discarded?

It is too bad the cost-effectiveness to use and throw away such talented people.

Because of that judgment, Tia doesn’t take any action.

Because of that prejudice, she didn’t investigate Eleanor’s existence and didn’t care that the imperial intelligence service ＜Tenebris＞ was mixed in.

This is because no matter what their identity is, they cannot become a threat to themselves.

Of course, if ＜Tenebris＞ crosses the line, it will immediately turn the empire into a sea of fire.

Because she hates manipulating in her territory.

[Contemplation – Activate]

And there was one existence aiming for such a gap.

Sitting on a bench chair, a girl with black hair tied back in two pigtails and dark gray eyes looked up at the sky.

Of the three big presences I felt during practice, this was the one I had no intention of moving.

“Can I sit next to you?”

“… … .”

[KP King (Erosion)]

Marie Cistus

A talented person who is so famous and talented that no one in the world doesn’t know about it.

A genius who is regarded as the best among the children of [Pyeongwang] called Cistus. Who would have imagined that such an existence would be used as a discard?

Is it reasonable to throw away an existence that can be said to be one’s successor, and at that time, one’s own child?

“What are you looking at?”

“… … .”

I raised my head and asked Marie, who was staring at the sky, a question, but there was no answer.

To be honest, I don’t know what she’s thinking.

In Chapter 2 of the main story, there was only a figure wearing a black hood in the middle, and there were no lines.

“… … .”

Did you get an order from the [Myeongwang]? I tried talking to her several times, but she didn’t answer.

Like a doll, she just looked up at the sky in a daze.

“… … sky.”

No matter how much I spoke to him, there was no answer, so I was about to get up from the bench.

Then Marie suddenly uttered a word.

That passive voice sounded sad from somewhere and made me feel bad.

“The sky here is clear and pretty.”

“… … .”

“The clouds, the sun, and most of all, that clear blue color is really pretty… … . yep, that’s what i was watching These are things that didn’t exist where I lived.”

“Uh, that, yes.”

You speak more fluently than you think.

Aren’t you talking better than me? I still activate [Contemplation] whenever someone talks to me.

Then, it’s convenient because the person I was talking to often quietly shuts up and goes back.

“You look like that kid. Everyone is reluctant to me, but you suddenly approach me as if nothing is wrong.”

“Who are you talking about?”

“He had a strange head, but his name must have been… … .”

“Noah?”

“Yeah, I think that was the name.”

I thought so.

Because in this academy, Eleanor is the only one who can be counted as the weirdest one.

Anyway, to resemble Eleanor is quite humiliating.

“I suddenly started talking to you and tied my hair up like this.”

Marie said, stroking her pigtails with her hands.

Eleanor’s behavior patterns are completely unpredictable.

Originally, there would have been no connection between the two, but is it the butterfly effect caused by my rampage?

Maybe it’s because it wasn’t Eleanor who fought Gerard.

Either way, the results aren’t bad.

Eleanor had been beaten by me since this morning.

So, at least it means they didn’t tie it up today.

If you’ve always maintained that hair style, it must mean that you like the way your hair is tied up.

“Would you like to say hello the next time we meet?”

“Do it yourself.”

When he rejected Mari’s proposal without a second thought, he could see her eyes wide open in embarrassment.

Aside from anything else, I didn’t want to think of Eleanor smiling with a proud expression on her face.

All I can hear about Eleanor outside of the main story is a complaint to subdue the riotous Eleanor.

“… … I will if I can.”

Even the moment I ran into Marie, I hadn’t decided what to do with her.

Anyway, in the original work, it would have been convenient to make him die beforehand, as he was destined to die if he had no use for it.

If I reported it to Tia, it would have been a breeze.

If that happens, Tia will banish Marie from ＜Skientia＞, and the useless Marie will be abandoned by the [Pyeongwang] and die.

As long as Mari is trying to damage ＜Skientia＞ as [Myeongwang]’s pawn, Tia can’t leave her alone.

She is a dragon who likes human possibilities, but is cold to the point of thoroughness when it comes to the fact that her territory has been invaded.

Keeping them alive is rather rare.

It’s too late after the incident has been settled. Tia will kill Marie.

However, it is also awkward to inform and kick out Marie who has not yet committed a crime. In the end, she will be killed by the [Myeongwang].

And Tia won’t care what happens outside of her realm.

“If there is something you want to do in the future, decide for yourself.”

“… … .”

After leaving these words to Marie, she stood up from the bench.

It’s not about accepting it as it is or misinterpreting its meaning. I decided to stop getting rid of Marie.

So I’m going to aim for the opposite.

I don’t think it would be bad to steal her away from the [Myeongwang].

She has quite high abilities as a part of her was eroded by [Myungwang].

If you think about the character’s status, it’s probably equivalent to the SSR rank.

Of course, if I do things alone like I did not long ago, I might get my throat pulled out this time.

I should have told Tia, but… … . After putting some effort into it, it should be possible to create a situation where Tia can choose the option of saving Marie and feeding [Myeongwang] candy.

“… … I will be busy.”

It’s not something that was decided only by feelings like sympathy.

I don’t intend to be that emotional.

When I looked at her through [Contemplation], my eyes met someone who resided inside her.

『He’s a guy who can be expected after death. I want you to take this opportunity to retrieve it.”

The eyes of the [Pyeongwang], not hers.

[Myungwang]’s eyes were looking down at me as if judging me.

As if I didn’t know anything, he was looking down at me with crescent-shaped eyes.

Cheeky bastard… … .

“It makes you lose money.”

Who do you dare to see?

so just yes, it’s just

I was just trying to tell that [Myeongwang] dog-like bastard what the most f*cked up feeling was.

I am already looking forward to seeing what kind of expression he will make if he destroys his plans in advance.

[Erosion degree 27%]

[King] The cheeky cubs will fail.

i will make that

It won’t allow even a single gain.

Before that bastard can find out what Tia has hidden, he will fail before he has time to guess why she is obsessed with ＜Skientia＞.

* * *

It’s not long before midterms are approaching.

I don’t remember taking any classes, but it’s already a test.

“How did this happen… … ?”

It broke my heart to hear that Professor Aira was incredibly lively while I was in the hospital.

In the meantime, Eleanor and Baekyang decided to break their bad habits.

Of course, with the test coming up soon, we’ll have to do joint training together, but that’s probably fine.

Arrieta’s auxiliary abilities are unmatched.

And since I also have my [contemplation], there is no reason for us to be defeated unless it is a dire situation.

“Oz-sama seems to be surprisingly busy.”

“Can you omit the word unexpected? Arrieta.”

If I say that, then I look like an unemployed person.

I have a pretty busy daily life after work.

Regarding the training, it was fine since I left it to Lucia, but there were many things to prepare in many ways.

“I heard that you are doing the job of Tia Academy. I heard it was dangerous, but was it okay?”

“It wasn’t too bad for me, so it’s okay.”

First of all, the daily dungeon was completely under my jurisdiction.

Tia smiled with satisfaction when I decided to manage the existence of the daily dungeon, which would also be awkward.

When I was talking, I felt a stiff feeling around my neck, so I was scared.

Whatever it was, I was able to collect a lot of ＜Prana Fragments＞ by constantly going to and from the dungeon every day of the week.

[The Ruler of Mana Lv. One]

Exp : 147/200

[Space Barrier Lv. One]

Exp : 1/300

Thanks to that, I raised a lot of experience for [Ruler of Mana].

Actually, it would have been better to invest in a survival skill like [Space Barrier] rather than a skill like that, but I couldn’t help it.

I’m curious about that, so how can you stand it?

I couldn’t stand it because I was curious about how it would change when the level went up.

“There have been a lot of achievements as a leading team lately, right? I was surprised that he took it more seriously than I thought.”

“I couldn’t help it because one problem child kept getting into accidents.”

Of course, the problem child is Eleanor. Thanks to this, in this short period of time, I earned close to 3 credits.

It’s okay to say it instead, but if Eleanor fails this midterm exam, she will be rejected immediately.

“Even though you said that, did you say that many people found you on patrol? You are more shy than I thought.”

“… … No matter what excuse I make here, I think it will flow in that direction, so I will do it that way.”

“Whoops.”

Look, isn’t it already driving that kind of atmosphere?

By the way, the patrol that Arrieta is thinking of is the result of going around to stop [Myungwang]’s plan.

[Myungwang] used Mari to carve his spells all over the academy with traces of himself, such as blood and flesh.

Since it was a fraudulent compositional spell, mana was not detected.

No wonder Tia couldn’t notice.

Of course, to me who has [Contemplation], it is nothing more than an obvious trick.

“I’m sorry, Oz. Would it be all right if I ask you a favor?”

“Yes? ah… … . Yes, that’s fine.”

In the midst of laughing at [Myung King] inwardly, Arrieta suddenly spoke apologetically.

Regarding the titles, I ended up completely omitting them, but Arrieta still insisted on using them.

“party… … . So, at the freshman party. Well, I’m supposed to pray because of Tia’s request.”

Arrieta began to speak cautiously, with an expression that seemed very sorry and guilty.

It’s something you know.

In the first place, Eleanor had also mentioned that matter.

She had no choice but to be busy because she belonged to the church.

“I think there will be a vacancy in the leadership team that day, so if you don’t mind, could you help with the leadership team?”

“I don’t like crowded places anyway, so there’s no need to be too difficult. Arrieta. On that day, I will also patrol.”

“ah… … . That, that, that’s not… … No, thank you.”

Arrieta waved her hands in bewilderment, then nodded with a very guilty expression.

He probably feels sorry for me for not being able to go to the once in a lifetime freshman party.

Eleanor asked to hang out with her if she was free that day, but Eleanor would have many friends, so it wouldn’t matter.

In the first place, the prerequisite was ‘if you’re free’, so what… … .

“Aww! it hurts… … Oh, I didn’t mean to lie… … .”

But no matter how hard it looks, doesn’t it? If anyone sees it, they will know that they are guilty of high treason.
