To you who survived (3)

“I’m going to sneak into the Trix Hall and read the sage’s seal.”

The book of the great sage Sylvania, which is said to have not yet been even half deciphered, the sage’s seal.

An unknown book filled with all sorts of words about Aspect Magic, magic engravings with runes, and strange things that you don’t even know what country you’re talking about.

In fact, the book, the treasure of this Sylvanian Academy, has often been at the center of all sorts of thought. freēwēbnovel.com

Once, there is a record that senior professor Glast stole it and ran away, and there was a time when the actual ownership was transferred to Elte Company due to chronic financial difficulties.

Last time in the battle to retake the Elte Chamber, Lortel returned the sage’s seal back to the bachelor as a condition of negotiation, so he was able to return to the Treasure Vault of the Trix Hall anyway… .

“I want to go through it all at once. However, no matter how much I submitted a request, Principal Obell did not meet me. yeah… It’s natural. There’s no way I’m going to allow a single student to browse the treasures of a school that already has a history of theft… .”

“So, are you going to steal again?”

“It’s not stealing, it’s borrowing for a while.”

I even felt a sense of incongruity in the face of Aila, who was so imposing.

The venue is the Student Square, where the Imperial Band is performing. The sun is rising in the middle of the sky, so it feels like the heat has not risen yet, but today is definitely the last day of the festival.

It is the day when the most grandiose festival is held, and finally, the closing ceremony is held in the central plaza.

On the last day or so, I wanted to take a break, so I sat on a bench near the student square and enjoyed the warm weather of late spring.

I mean, I was just getting some fresh air while drinking a drink, but I’ve been very busy lately, so this little time was precious to me.

“If I had come a month earlier, I would have asked Lortel so I could read it.”

“Iknow, right… . Up until that time, Bongseo belonged to Lortel-senpai… . However, at that time, I did not know the seriousness of the situation, so it was inevitable.”

The sage’s seal has already passed to the bachelor’s. Lortel used it as a negotiating material in order to regain control of the superior powers.

“therefore… Tonight, when the heat of the festival was at its highest, we went to the Trix Hall… But, Ed-senpai. What is all this… .”

Although we were talking quite seriously, Ayla, unable to contain her curiosity, looked at the gift boxes piled up on the bench table and asked.

“This… The imperial coat of arms is engraved… .”

“Ah, this is… It’s not a big deal, Princess Sellaha’s side gave me various things to use if I needed it while I was in college.”

“Princess Selah… ? Ed sunbaenim, do you have a relationship with Princess Selaha besides Princess Penia?”

“I had a kite this time… . Well, I don’t know if they’re such a good lover.”

Ayla opened her mouth as if she was absurd when she saw a table full of presents from the imperial family to win Ed’s favor.

He knew that Ed Roth Taylor had a wide network, but he didn’t think he would have any contact with the icy princess of Frost.

“Then why is Yenica-senpai… .”

“He… Don’t worry too much.”

Yenika, who had decided to walk around the festival stalls together, was lying face down on the table among the gift boxes.

Well, it’s me, I just need to take a break after a long time, so I don’t need to go around too much. It’s just being by the side of Yenica, who is exhausted.

I spoke in a low voice so she could not hear Yenika.

“Recently, I was betrayed by my parents.”

“Yes, yes… ? Yenica-sunbaenim had such a gloomy family history?!”

“Hmm… Actually, it’s not really that gloomy… .”

Yenika’s parents, Orte and Seyla, were thoroughly brainwashed by Lortel for the rest of the festival.

In fact, it’s a bit different to call it brainwashing, but it’s correct to think that Lortel’s innate speech and behavior made him an ardent supporter of the Elte company.

If you see them applauding as they share stories about the Elte Chamber’s business plans, the development of the Pulan region, and the improvement of the lives of their neighbors, Yenika’s mental power is inevitably diminished as time goes on.

Yenica is the kindest girl in the world, but in front of Lortel, she tends to have a strong sense of pride.

He’s a great person to the point where he can easily concede the senior position, but he doesn’t seem to want to lose a single word to Lortel.

However, he was not a great person to be angry with his parents, so he was groaning alone and repeating Lortel’s name.

As my sister and sister are saying, it is not uncommon for Lortel to grab hold of even the elder merchants who are like squirrels.

However, watching the opponent’s family into their arms and fighting a nerve battle is quite bloody when viewed from the side.

“Ugh… . Ed… My mom and dad suddenly started talking about wool distribution and the future trend of the livestock market… . People who only care about cattle on the ranch… .”

“… … .”

It’s like a child with a father who has fallen into a multi-level process is coming to mind. I almost burst into tears, but it’s much better than that. At least Orte and Seyla are planning a solid future.

It’s just a painful fact for Yenica that Elte Sanghoe is in the background.

“You do it too much! You have crossed the line to even touch your parents!”

“To say that I crossed the line… Your parents have done nothing to harm. I’d rather get help… .”

“Do you know that money is everything in the world?! Why is Lortel really like that all the time!”

“Unfortunately, money is almost everything… . You’re feeling it right now… ?”

“… I might run away from home like this.”

In fact, he has already run away. Haven’t you been home recently?

… I didn’t fall for that part. In the first place, Yenika is not a person by nature who can pretend to be with her parents.

“I think I’m in puberty, Ed.”

“People who have reached puberty usually don’t say things like that… .”

“No, I am a teenager. Even if I go home now, I won’t help with the ranch. Hmm… Still, harvesting herbs in the garden is fun, so I’ll do it… I will never do hard work. But I’ll have to bring the cows released at sunset back into the fence. That’s because the efficiency itself changes when there are more people… . Still, I’m not going to clean up the manure or milk the milk. is not it. I need some help with milking so I can meet the delivery date. So, should I oversleep in the morning and head towards not brushing my front yard? . Yeah, I won’t even fold the laundry, I won’t make the bed sheets… . Where can I try it… .”

In any case, people who have fallen in love are vaguely welcome even when they face rebellion.

“Then, I need to make a to-do and not-to-do list from now on.”

“What else is that?”

“I’m thinking about the ranch schedule during vacation, and I’m thinking about how far I need to help, and where I can be indolent. Passing on to Lortel, Mom and Dad… you’ll regret it… .”

You will be the only one who has such a strong and constructive rebellion.

And considering Orte and Seila’s tendencies, it’s obvious that their daughter will just come back from vacation and be drooling around the house, and ignore it.

In a future so clearly visible, I couldn’t even afford to encourage.

After graduating, I would have to take on the title of baron and take charge of the outskirts of the Roth Taylor estate by myself… . I’m just worried because I think I’m still thinking about doing ranch work. If it’s Yenika, she’s like Yenika, so I’ve come to a point where I feel more at ease.

I took a deep breath and turned my head to Ayla, leaving Yenika to mumble something as if she was casting a spell.

“Well, there is no need to risk stealing the sage’s seal. If you talk to Lortel or Princess Fenia, and negotiate with the bachelor’s side, you might be able to browse through it. It was a wise decision to consult with me.”

“But then it takes too long.”

“Yeah, but there’s a lot less risk than getting caught while browsing secretly.”

“Sir Ed. In a situation where you don’t know when your senior’s prophecy will come true, I don’t want to leave uncertainties for long. Above all, it is a matter that directly affects Taylor’s life. I… If it’s something that could put Taylor at risk, I don’t want to mess around with it.”

There’s no need to be in such a hurry… . To say that, I am not in a situation where I can relax either. In this part, Ayla was right.

“You don’t know if the formal process will take a week, a month, or a semester.”

“that… You are definitely right. Ayla.”

“I’m going to hide in the Trix Pavilion when I’m focused on the festival tonight. In the meantime, I want you to draw attention. If possible, it’s near the Trix Hall.”

“You are working harder than you think.”

“It was Ed himself who convinced me of the seriousness of the situation.”

Looking at Isla, who was sitting in some places with a heavy and serious expression, I scanned my chin and nodded my head.

“No, I just wanted to tell you about this.”

“yes… ? What? Are you still hiding something?”

I pulled out an old book from my leather pocket. Then, I took off the cover I had put on so as not to be seen by others and put it on the table.

Ayla took one glance at the title of the book with a puzzled look on her face, then swallowed her breath for a moment, regardless of her will. It was a reaction with a little time difference.

『Introduction to Astrology』 – Author, Glock Elderbane.

―Quadangtang!

Ayla got up from her seat momentarily and looked around with the cover of the book covered.

Since she is a girl with a certain knowledge of sexuality studies, she is well aware of the value of this book. So, I was so confused that I wondered if this could be the case.

“Hey, why is this… casually… Are you sticking out of your leather pocket?”

“just… I had it.”

“It’s not something you just want to own! This… This… !”

It is a book written by the undisclosed Archmage Gloct.

Whether or not this is genuine can be determined by the age and handwriting of the book, and by the nature and magic of the book.

If you were an outsider, you wouldn’t be able to pretend, but Ayla noticed it right away.

“Don’t lend me.”

The source of this is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

“Hey, this is… It’s not something you can afford to borrow!”

“It’s a record that Archmage Glockt studied, and there are also some records of the Great Sage Sylvania… There will be some progress in your research.”

“… … .”

“And, if you come to camp in your spare time, I’ll let you talk to Merylda. Take your time and come. It would be nice to bring Taylor too.”

“If it’s Merylda… That wolf spirit?”

I nodded and spoke.

“It’s a spirit that met the great sage Sylvania in person. At this point, he is the only being who can communicate while remembering that great man.”

“… Ugh.”

Feeling as if she was suffocating, Ayla nodded her head with difficulty for the first time.

“After all, consulting with senior was the right answer.”

“The fundamental problem has not been solved. Most importantly, what was the true meaning of the great sage Sylvania? The sealing of Velbrok should also be made clear.”

“For now, I will try to figure out everything I can. but… .”

Ayla clearly pointed it out.

“It’s never as good as putting Taylor in danger.”

“that… Unfortunately I can’t guarantee it. He is destined to live in the midst of trials.”

“… … .”

“It would be better for you to tell this clearly than to coax you with a lie. is not it?”

“… That’s right.”

Ayla agreed to my words and put on a sad expression on her face. It was unavoidable.

“Then, are you going to move tonight? Talk about specific plans.”

As the sun slowly approached, preparations for the grand decoration of the final night of the festival began.

Bachelor’s assistants were busy preparing for the stage while shooting, and students from the student council started to check the number of people.

Finally, they gather in the central plaza to listen to the speeches of the distinguished guests in turn, watch the big stages, set off firecrackers that illuminate the night sky, and wrap up the Crestor Festival.

It was a stage that could be said to be the highlight of the festival, so all the students were looking forward to it. Famous bands come and many celebrities from the Empire attend, and even the faces of saints and princesses can be seen in one place.

It is so grand that it is too large to be called an academy festival. All the students wanted to attend an event that they thought they would see several times in their lifetime.

Before going to the bachelor’s school, I packed up all kinds of equipment and tools from camp. The bachelor and camp are a little far away, so I came early so I had some free time.

Yenika is busy with the Spirit Society, and Lortel is hectic because this is the best season for the company. There was no way to know where Lucy had gone, and the camp was now empty.

“Whew… .”

The sun has set, now it’s time for the stars to float in the sky.

Perhaps it was the time when most of the students were gathering towards the central plaza, so the road to the camp was quiet.

The camp is also quiet with no one around. When I first settled here and started to survive, this quiet state was the default, but recently more people are living here and there are more visitors, so this quiet state is rather unusual.

If you think about it that way, your emotions are insignificant. This camp has already become my home base.

When I graduate, I will be leaving this camp, and that fact felt very heavy. For me, this place is like a hometown I love.

Putting those sentimental thoughts aside, I grabbed a dagger and tech supplies.

And when I left the hut, someone was sitting by the bonfire. I hadn’t been in the hut for that long, and I wondered what was going on.

“Oh, Master Ed. Did you just come?”

He’s used to his sloppy muscles and a voluptuous body. Yenika’s father, Orte Palerover.

“I heard that the last event is going to be held on the central stage, so why did you come to camp?”

“Kah haha. Of course you should go to the event. However, since it is the last event, I feel strange. Now that the festival is over, me and Seila are going home early tomorrow morning… In a way, isn’t today the last day?”

Orte had just arrived and was sitting by the bonfire, and there were leaves attached to her body that might have been buried while walking through the forest.

Shaking it off, Orte gurgled the drink he had brought with him into the mug.

“I felt like I wanted to have one last drink at Bok Ed’s camp. In the meantime, it would be nice to have one last face to face with Ed.”

“Who is your wife?”

“Saila and Yenika headed to the center stage. I will be there soon.”

Why do you have to separate yourself from there and come to the camp?

Eventually, Orte’s subsequent actions made me understand why.

“Would you like a drink?”

“I don’t drink.”

“Oh my gosh, Saila will love it. She said she likes men who don’t drink, so I don’t know why she married me.”

Indeed, Orte was the last to see my face.

No family, just alone. to face one-on-one.

I sat across from the bonfire, pondered for a moment, and then took the mug Ortega was handed to me.

“You don’t have to match it. I drink well on my own. Kahaha.”

“no. The last time you see your face… .”

“Is that so. Hahaha, how compassionate you are to take care of uneducated people like us.”

Then Orte gulped and took a drink, and then exhaled heavily with a thud. He wiped his mouth with his bulging forearm, and then grinned.

“I stopped by to say thank you one last time. I’m not the head of the Palerover family, I just want to see him as a man versus a man.”

“I haven’t done anything great enough to be grateful for. Everything he did for Yenica was more out of necessity.”

“Still, I got what I got. Whoops, whoops. excuse.”

Burp came up while we were talking, and Orte raised an apology with a playful face.

“A man who couldn’t learn and was fed up had a really deserving wife and daughter. When I was young, I lived for the taste of hard work, and as I got older, I lived for the taste of raising cows, so life turned around at a turning point.”

Contrary to the tone of the usual chatter, the intonation of his voice was very dead.

“Actually, like Ed or other high noblemen, I didn’t have big ambitions and didn’t live by high ideals. Even as an adult, I couldn’t remove the letters for a long time because of my stupid head. It was truly a third-class life, but wasn’t it enough to achieve it just by doing this? Your wife is Seir, and your daughter is Yenika.”

“If you stop, you will have a successful life.”

“Yes. Those two are the best achievements of my life, so I cherish them quite a bit.”

Orte spoke with a very satisfied expression as he turned the glass round and round.

“And that Orte has a good grasp of the subject. He’s from a lowly commoner, he’s never learned anything, and he’s an idiot who only knows how to do his best. So, I do not have to rebel against those who are higher than me, and I am always loyal and loyal to my superiors. What’s different about being Ed Bok-nim? Since I have received so many things, it is loyalty and loyalty. haha.”

“It’s embarrassing if you do that too much.”

“What kind of burden do you feel? You don’t have to. I am proud of myself and nothing else. I just live with the flow.”

Then he takes a sip of the drink and adds.

“However, I will never leave my daughter crying.”

However, Orte is also a person with a strong heart in her own way.

That fact was vaguely known.

“If you want to make a living, you are ready to crouch in front of a little merchant a few dozen years younger than me… If I tell my daughter to cry, I will throw my fists in the face, whether it is aristocrats or royalty.”

“… … .”

“I’ve seen a lot of arrogant nobles who trample my hair, split it badly, and spit on it in my life. What… I have to eat and live, but it’s not a matter of bowing my head like that. But when you touch my family, I won’t hold back even a second.”

I was holding the cup I took, and then I said with a light smile.

“For that matter, you seem to like Lortel, which Yenica hates terribly… .”

“Well, when you’re looking for youth, one or two of those relationships are actually a good stimulus.”

“… You’re more open-minded than I thought.”

“At first, you can see that Lortel Nari is also a person who keeps the minimum good. There… What was it that suddenly occurred to me?”

Orte talked about the past few days with a vague expression on her face.

“It occurred to me as I watched Yenica trying to hide the truth while somehow dragging me and Seyla around. Living apart, you’ve learned a lot of secrets. There are a lot of things you don’t want to know about, and there are a lot of things you want to handle on your own… .”

“… … .”

“You’re all grown up.”

Orte and Seyla knew from the beginning. Yenika, who is a college student, knows that she has a lot of secrets she hasn’t told her at home.

“It seems like yesterday that I fell while running around the ranch and cried. What do you think will happen to you when you see a spirit the size of a house now?”

“I can’t imagine.”

“Actually, it doesn’t feel like much. what’s up so fast I’m just amazed at how fast this makes sense~. I’m not really a sentimental person, so that’s about it.”

Orte smiled and took another sip of his drink.

Then he got up from his seat and suddenly fell to his knees and put his head on the floor.

Not knowing what to say due to the sudden action, Orte opened her mouth first.

“It’s a lackluster daughter-in-law.”

I just want to say that. Orte came to this camp by navigating through this northern forest alone.

“Help a lot. There is not much I can do for him anymore.”

I understood the deep meaning of those words to some extent, so I closed my eyes for a moment and answered.

“I get more help. Do not bow your head.”

* * *

Yenika’s family affairs seemed to have been completed by having a one-on-one conversation with Orte.

It wasn’t really a big deal, but meeting Yenika’s parents was a very special experience. Most of all, they were definitely Yenika’s parents.

Now that the work has been roughly completed, it is time to move on to the serious work. For now, it is to help Ayla to read the sage’s seal, and ultimately to subjugate Velbrok after finishing the competition for imperial power.

After carefully checking my equipment, I headed towards the faculty building. After attending the event on the central square side, I was planning to head to the Trix Hall where Isla is located.

However, for unknown reasons, the plan didn’t always go as it should.

“Emperor Chloel has called you.”

These days, they are so knowledgeable that they can be recognized even from afar.

Selaha’s attendant, Deste, the butler, called me as I was heading to the central square and spoke with my head down.

“I guess… It seems that the contents of the letters that Princess Selah has sent so far have reached the ears of Emperor Chloel.”

“… Yes?”

After the competition was over, the image of Emperor Chloel, who looked at me with a satisfied face, came to mind. It was as if his eyes were looking at a treasure.

“that… In the audience room, Master Ed was called. This… This is Huang Ming.”
