Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

126 – Ruid’s Choice (2)

Ruid bit his lip and walked quickly. Something was covered with a white cloth.

There are students around, and everyone has red eyes. Some buried their faces and cried.

“He was found dead about a mile away.”

“Wounds?”

“…… She appeared to have been trampled on by a giant monster. But I’m not sure.”

A drop of sweat ran down Vincent’s forehead.

“Because it was so terrifying that I couldn’t even recognize it.”

“Is it a white bear?”

“Yes. Maybe… ….”

“Which one was 1 mile?”

“This is where Vicky came from. That.”

Vincent whispered to Victoria.

“It was found near the ruins.”

Ruid, who was right next to him, also heard it.

‘Ruins?’

There are no monsters nearby.

Exactly, it’s gone.

Because the Knights of Windsor wiped it out.

Monsters are surprisingly clever. If there is a group stronger than you, you won’t even come close to it.

Only then did Ruid realize why Vincent had the look of a pooping puppy.

If the monster really killed Sophia, it would be a big mistake. You will not escape punishment.

“I want to solve it while I’m here, but-“

Victoria stopped her words and looked to her side.

Ruid felt a cold hand stroking her own hair.

One of the twin maids, Ruby. Louise raised her head.

“Hello. Young master.”

“Hello.”

She bowed her head to Victoria.

“The Lord is calling.”

“Um.”

“It is urgent.”

She stared at Louis with a puzzled face.

Louise nodded her head.

“I’m fine.”

“Okay…. Ame.”

“Yes.”

Amelia couldn’t meet Victoria’s eyes.

“Please take good care of Louie.”

“… Yes.”

“Sure. See you later Louie.”

“Yes.”

Victoria finished her words and walked away with Ruby.

Ruid shook her hand.

After opening the gate and disappearing, Vincent said.

“It is true that Vicky is Your Excellency’s henchman. You can use it all the way to the gate.”

‘Because it’s you.’

Anyway- that’s not the point.

Louise looked at her one by one with a sidelong glance.

The students were in a panic – the Knights of Windsor were tinkering with their swords.

‘… Everyone knows. That this is going to be quite a problem.’

Anywhere else, Sophia died near where the Knights of Windsor were stationed.

Even if he died while acting personally, there are quite a few children from noble families here.

If they were returned to the Islands, there was a high possibility that they would return to the responsibility of the Knights of Windsor.

No, it is definitely a problem.

That’s why the knights are fiddling with their swords.

To kill everyone before it becomes a problem.

Ruid can make a statement. With one word of her command, they would annihilate the students of the Imperial Academy without a moment’s hesitation.

The kindness of the Knights of Windsor was only directed towards the people of the north.

“Brother. How will we do it?”

Charlotte approached, yawning. He stretched it high into the sky.

“What does Ame noona say?”

“As you can see… “

Charlotte spilled Amelia. Amelia was circling the same spot with her arms crossed.

“You get really angry because we just cleaned it all up, right? Bocchan, I feel unfair!”

“Charles was too much.”

“But, it can’t be helped.”

Charlotte put her hand on her waist and said confidently..

“If you send it back, it will bother us. Wouldn’t it be better to clean up beforehand? The leader would have already taken action.”

“Don’t talk like that while laughing.”

Charlotte is sometimes scary. Like right now, he casually insists on ‘annihilation’ with an angelic face.

‘… I’m not in a position to talk to anyone.’

Even though a person died, there was no emotion, let alone condolence.

To be honest, I care about Delrin a hundredfold. Louis made a bitter expression.

“That, Professor Louis.”

Then, Isabella spoke to her. She looked a little nervous, but somehow she was smiling.

“An accident happened… Wouldn’t it be unreasonable to force the class like this? First of all, how about going back to the system and having time to reorganize?”

The last horse’s tail trembled.

‘… Did you notice?’

Right now, their life and death are changing in seconds.

‘I’m sorry.’

Ruid smiled and spoke innocently.

“It is said that monsters are around here, but it is dangerous to go back. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a proper understanding of the case?”

Isabella’s forced laugh hardened.

She used the expression dangerous. She wouldn’t have a reason to do that if I took her there herself.

That also meant that I had no intention of sending it back.

“Go back to your seat and sit down.”

Ruid spoke casually. Isabella’s head bowed.

“Yes.”

Looking at Isabella’s back as she returned, Charlotte’s eyes lit up.

“What… ! Our young master has become cool?”

“I used to be cool.”

“…… “

Louise blushed.

She was a bit embarrassed even after she spit it out.

“Big. Anyway, killing is against me.”

Charles sat down on the floor.

“You can’t be locked up in the North for the rest of your life. Louie. In my experience, there is no better solution than keeping your mouth shut.”

Charlotte said quite seriously.

I knew.

‘The most important thing is safety in the north.’

Louis calmed her heart coldly.

Didn’t she promise? I’ll do anything if it gets in the way here.

I was determined. If she had to kill everyone but less damage was done to the north, Ruid would definitely choose that.

But- this time there was another alternative.

“Miho.”

“Kang!”

Miho jumped on her short legs and hugged Ruid.

Her tail waggled mercilessly.

“Is it possible to erase everyone’s memory?”

[Yes. I can’t guarantee that there are no side effects.]

“What kind of side effects?”

[If a third person probes the erased memory, there is a risk of becoming a disabled person.]

“It doesn’t matter.”

‘This is the neatest solution.’

On the contrary, if I killed everyone, it was likely to be more troublesome.

“As expected, Louie is smart.”

Charlotte covered her mouth with her long sleeves and giggled. Ruid and the fox were so cute.

“Then, I will look around and come back. Young master.”

“To find monsters?”

“Yes. To be honest, if there was a monster, I would have known it a long time ago… It could be a kind of demon that hides its presence. And- my dog would only get in the way if he stayed here.”

After lightly stretching, Charlotte approached Amelia.

“Ame. Irion.”

“Hey, wait a minute, Charles! I almost thought of a solution now!”

“I can’t hear, I can’t hear.”

Charlotte reluctantly dragged Amelia along. Amelia struggled, but Charlotte seemed too strong.

“Charles—!”

“I’ll go. Go for it!”

Ruid smiled awkwardly.

“Go carefully.”

Charlotte and Amelia disappeared, and Louis turned to her.

[Master. Can we erase Sophia’s existence from everyone’s memories?]

Miho was looking forward to the opportunity to finally show off her strength.

“No. It is a last resort.”

[Yes?]

“The best option is to save Sophia.”

Ruid stood in front of a white cloth.

Just looking at the silhouette, it was a terrifying corpse.

Perhaps, her legs and back are broken.

‘I’ll be sure if I use a dragon heart.’

That’s an unexpected secret weapon.

I’m sorry Sofia, but it was a waste to write here.

Above all—

This is an experiment.

The dead Sophia was a valuable test subject to Ruid.

It was also a practice to resurrect the Archmage ‘Delrin’ in case you didn’t know later.

“Ella. Come here.”

“Yes!”

Ella often walked closer.

Here, he is the only clear face not covered in panic.

“From now on, I’m going to turn back time with the 5th magic. Watch and learn.”

Ella thought for a moment, then she spoke cautiously.

“… With my magical knowledge, the only answer is impossible. Ruid-sama also asserted that the body cannot withstand the use of time magic against living beings.”

“I will correct it. Is it possible.”

Ruid had already come to the conclusion in the past that it was impossible to turn back the time of living beings.

However, the reason I could confirm this was because of Delrin’s magic.

‘It was too arrogant to think that Delrin’s magical achievement would be lower than mine.’

Of course, even Delrin wouldn’t know how to use the part of the 5th magic that deals with time.

But one thing is for sure, the understanding of the ‘space’ part was better than Ruid’s.

Yes, it was Delrin who created the magic called subspace.

“I said it was impossible because I was only trying to use my time. If you use space—in other words, if you use time and space, it’s possible.”

“Space… What?”

“Yes. Space-time.”

“Time and space… ! Is this a new theory that Professor Ruid came up with?!”

Ella was overexcited and her eyes were overglazed.

Ruid was a little pressured, but she calmly explained it.

When Ella’s magical accomplishments go up, it’s the professor with the smug assistant that she gets comfortable with.

“Let’s take a baguette as an example.”

“You mean Ruid-sama always eats.”

“… Cancellation. Let’s take a slice of bread as an example.”

“Yes.”

“Just as bread can be cut in various ways, time and space can be cut in various ways.”

“Time and space are bread… “

‘Don’t write such strange things.’

Ruid suddenly opened his eyes.

She explained with a sigh. Even if it looks like that, it’s probably because you’re trying to understand it properly.

“We are going to cut the bread into three pieces. I’ll name one past, one present, and one future.”

“I cut the bread into three pieces, but they are all on the same line, right? The past, present and future exist as the same reality.”

“Let me add one situation here. Mold has grown on the corner of the slice of bread called reality. We want to get rid of this mold and fill it with clean bread. Then, what should I do?”

Ella said with blank eyes.

“If the current slice of bread has gone bad, the future slice of bread must have gone bad too. Then… I have no choice but to take it from the past.”

“Right. Also, Ella is smart. If you exchange the clean slice of bread from the past with the rotten slice of bread from the present, the current slice of bread becomes a new slice of bread.”

“That, is that possible? That’s it.”

Ella swallowed dryly.

“It’s God’s realm.”

“I thought it wouldn’t work either. That it was possible did you tell me earlier? The past, present and future are the same. That is, it is possible to swallow a part of the ‘past’ in the ‘present’ as a ‘sub-space’.”

This was not the memory of ‘Louis the Lazy’, nor was it a research result she came up with on her own.

She borrowed modern knowledge. To be precise, Einstein’s theory of relativity.

…… I didn’t know that the scientific knowledge I saw every day because of insomnia would help me in this way.

“If you put this into reality.”

Of course, Einstein’s theory cannot be considered accurate. Anyway, this is just a theory.

In addition, I cannot say that my knowledge, which I briefly watched on science YouTube, is accurate.

But Is different.

If you have a strong conviction that there are no ‘flaws’ in your own logic, then the omnipotent energy of magical power fills in the existing flaws.

Ruid was the one who had the most energy in this world.

Even if there are some errors, if the direction is right, it will definitely come true.

“First of all, ‘Sofia an hour ago’, which exists in ‘reality’, will be swallowed into a subspace.”

Magical power erupted from Ruid’s blue eyes.

Quaggagak!

People in this space barely endured with his face covered by Louis’ mighty magic that burst like a waterfall.

If it wasn’t for Louise’s consideration, he wouldn’t have been exposed to excessive magic power and could not have been safe.

“Now, we will swap the position of ‘Sofia an hour ago’, which is still intact, with the ‘Dead Sophia’ that exists now.”

In other words, it’s not simply turning back the time of Sophia in front of you-

Swap Sophia, who was in a certain place an hour ago, with the dead Sophia in front.

This was such magic.

Ruid stretched out his hand towards Sophia’s body.

“The Fifth Magic.”

Ruid’s magic flew into the sky.

He clenched his fists.

“Diagram.”

After a moment of silence-

The magic of the blue light that flew into the sky was pierced into Sofia’s body.
