Alchemist After Possessing

115. Aura (2)

115. Aura(2)

The practice method that Denas Yeseul taught me brought about a great effect. I, who had not been able to inject aura into the knitting thread, was able to infuse and maintain up to five lines of aura.

“Woros, what are you doing?”

“Oh, sorry.”

“Yeah, I’m just curious. Is today self-study anyway?”

It was the words of Professor Marina May. Now she had come to her lecture and was practicing. I put down the yarn I was holding and looked at her face.

“Indeed, Professor Ragust of Melgard wants to meet Woros. Could you give me some time after you’re done?”

“Okay.”

“By the way, why does Ragust want to see Woros?”

Marina tilts her head, placing her finger on her chin. If she doesn’t know, I don’t know either. Why does she really want to see me? You’ll know what to wait for. After the lecture was over, I stayed in the classroom and waited for Professor Ragust.

“Woros students… There he is.”

“Hello. Professor Ragust.”

“Yes. Do you want to sit down first?”

I sat face to face with Ragust on the first tier of the empty classroom. He unpacks the sweets he brought. Then Marina approached and quickly tried to pick up the snack. Ragust, who was watching the scene, defended the sweets with the palm of his hand. Sera Marina tries to fish for the sweets with her opposite hand, but this is also blocked by Ragust’s hand.

“Ragust? Shall we share the food?”

“I didn’t buy it for you.”

“Didn’t I call the Woros student? Don’t you remember?”

“… Take a little.”

With her permission granted, Marina stuffs sweets into her mouth. The swollen cheeks look like squirrels. She ate the snack, Marina smiled as if she was satisfied and she left the classroom.

“You are suffering a lot.”

“Do you understand? Well, since he was originally like that, I think he is going to be like that now.”

“Why did you ask to see me anyway?”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Ragust shoves the cookies into his mouth, drinks tea, and wipes his mouth.

“Because of the Melgard Tournament.”

“Is there a problem?”

“There is no such thing as a problem. I heard you challenged Steffen Corroman this time.”

“That’s right.”

Let’s affirm without hesitation, Ragust narrows his eyes.

“I know why you challenged Staffin. It’s a personal thought, but I want you to think about it a little more.”

“Why should I?”

“You don’t know how strong Staffin is. It’s because I’m afraid that there will be an accident.”

“Is that so? No matter what the professor thinks, I have no intention of stepping out.”

“Woros.”

I shake my head, and Ragust sighs.

“There is a saying in our Melguard class. Bow down until the opportunity presents itself. These are the words Melgard-sama left behind.”

“Isn’t there a saying like this? Being human, anything is possible. This is also what Melgard-sama left behind.”

“Really, don’t you want to think about it one more time?”

“Yes.”

Ragust takes a sip of his tea.

“I see. I get it.”

“Professor thinks I will lose to Staffin.”

“… I’m sorry, but that’s what I think. Staffin is my student, so I know him well.”

“I’m sorry, but the professor doesn’t seem to know me very well. I will never give up Even if I lose, I will do it without regret. Then, have a good cup of tea.”

After saying that, I bowed my head to Ragust and tried to leave the classroom. Just then, Ragust’s voice is heard from behind.

“Woros. I feel like I want to stop you, but it seems to be beyond the scope of what I can say.”

“…… “

“If you are going to do it, try hard.”

“Thank you.”

I bowed my head to Ragust once again and came out of the classroom. Then he saw Marina standing in the hallway. She smiles at me and goes into the classroom.

Professor Ragust called me and said this because he thought of me. No, to be precise, I wonder if it was right that I was worried about Marina, who would be in shock after seeing me lose.

What Ragust fears will never happen. That’s right, I’m going to beat Staffin Coroman and win the victory confidently. To do that, you need to complete Ansync’s aura as soon as possible.

After listening to all the lectures today, I was heading to District 2. I have always notified my friends who go to District 2 with me that I will be there first.

Before entering the training, I was thinking of giving Ruby her strawberry tea. So I arrived at Ansink’s house with the Worros strawberry set and knocked on the door.

ㅡ “Wait a minute”

Ruby’s voice from inside the door. It wasn’t long before Ruby came out. She has her wet hair on her head as if she had just washed it. Ruby sees me and shuts her mouth. Ansync’s disciples seem difficult to deal with.

I held out her set of strawberries to her and opened her mouth.

“It seemed like I brought less strawberry tea yesterday, so I came to bring you some supplements.”

“Uh… huh. I will eat well.”

“What about Master?”

“Dad went out for a while because he had work. He said he would come until the training begins… “

“Is that so? I get it.”

I said that and turned around. I tried to go to the clearing beforehand and warm up. Then Ruby calls me.

“That… I have something I want to say, would you like to come in for a second?”

“Yes.”

I came into the house and sat down on the sofa. Then Ruby sits in front of me and wiggles her finger.

“What do you want to say?”

“That… nothing else. I was wondering what your answer was about going to the game with my dad.”

“He liked it.”

“Really? Did you really?”

“Yes.”

I can feel the tension in Ruby’s tense expression. She regrets and let out a small sigh.

“Were you worried that Master Ansync would dislike you?”

“Yes… I think I’m going too far with my dad these days. Even though I don’t intend to. Even I did not know… “

“Do you like your father a lot?”

“Yes… “

“Isn’t that what happened?”

Ruby tilts her head at my words.

“Master Ansync cares about you more than anyone else. It was like that in the past, it is now and it will be like that in the future.”

“… Is it really?”

“Yes.”

“I see… To be honest, this is the first time I’m talking about this with someone else. Thank you. Thanks to you, my heart is lighter.”

“If possible, suppress your temper a bit in front of Master.”

Ruby’s face starts to heat up at my words.

“Ooh, you’re angry? It’s not like that. Just… Guilt… Oh no! Bar, forget what I just said.”

“Do you feel any guilt?”

“Mo, I don’t know. I won’t say any more.”

“Really? That’s it.”

I got up from my seat. I could tell Ansync of Ruby’s secret, but this is between Ruby and Ansync. It would also be a problem for me to tell Ann Sync the secret of her ruby.

Besides, Ruby will never dream that I know her own secret. When asked how she knew, she also has trouble coping. If Ruby really wanted to, she was willing to tell Ann Sink her secret, but if she had no intention of telling it herself, it would be right for her to stop at giving her a few words of advice.

It’s a father-daughter relationship. As an outsider, I cannot interfere.

“Hey Woros… How is your aura training going?”

“I am still at a loss.”

“Ugh… I see.”

Ruby says that while twisting her fingers and looking down at her floor. She seems to know roughly why Ruby is the way she is. Instead of her Ruby being her character who finds it difficult to express her own feelings honestly, I chose to conduct the conversation.

“Ruby, isn’t it stuffy just being at home? Follow me I also saw Master and I practicing. Let me introduce you to the people who will be your seniors next year.”

“My, can I go?”

“Of course. Then get ready and follow me.”

“Ugh, yes! I’m waiting for you”

Ruby, before I can even answer, she runs upstairs. She wished she had said, frankly, that she wanted to come along. She’s a very naughty child. By the time such a good child enters the academy, she develops anthropophobia and completely reverses her personality.

She becomes a violent and delinquent student. She’s just getting out of the way, but thanks to Lin Len, the deviation is finally over, but there are a lot of people who are hurt by her ruby. In it, she ends up hurting Ruby herself as well. The next year she gets into a fight with Melgard’s chief and she is even hospitalized.

The cause of her crookedness is, of course, Ansync’s death. That’s what she feels every time she sees Ruby. Such tragedies must be prevented, she says. She has to be strong to do that. She should be stronger than anyone else and straight up. She cannot tolerate a single mistake.

Well, if someone as strong as Ansync died, it wouldn’t be a serious thing, even if it was serious. If I even make a mistake in such a situation, there will be no turning back.

Looking at the stairs Ruby climbed, I made up my mind once again.

Melgard Class Outdoor Training Grounds.

Princess Larry Sha von Melloyer was training with her beloved junior, Irina Blood. The reason Lerisha cares for her Irina is that she knows Irina’s circumstances well, and since she is the younger sister of her future boyfriend, it is natural for her to take good care of her.

“Haa… mandible… Irina, take a little rest.”

“Ha, one more time… Princess, let me ask you one more time. Sotia Sonia is strong. You need to train more to win… “

Irina said that to Larisha as she exhaled heavily. Lerisha catches her breath and says.

“Working hard is good, but rest is also important. Isn’t Irina just training like this for the Melgard Tournament?”

“… Yes. I have to be strong. One day, my strength will be of great help to my brother.”

Brother. When the story of Woros comes out, a smile spreads across Lerisha’s face. She decided to suffer a little more for the wonderful Irina. At that time, Lerisha’s guardian knight rushes in and whispers to Irina so she can’t hear.

“Princess, I have obtained unbelievable information. Would you like to hear it?”

“What happened? Are you busy with training right now?”

“The princess has a boyfriend, right?”

“I am not your boyfriend! …Not yet.”

“Uh, anyway. Listen.”

Lerisha had no choice but to listen to her guardian knight. So let’s listen to what she has to say.

“I heard that this happened last year when the princess left for her field trip. Isn’t there a second-year seat in Melgard who will be playing with the princess’s boyfriend this time?”

“…… “

“Last year, information came in that the princess’s boyfriend was dragged to the arena and publicly humiliated.”

At the words of her guardian knight, Lerry Sha sighed.

“I have a bigger problem… The reason why that student, Staffin Corroman, gave such disgrace to the princess’s boyfriend… She said that she couldn’t bear to scratch the princess’s heart, so she did something… “

At the words of the guardian knight, Lerry Sha dropped the sword she was holding.
