Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

chapter 35



35 – Before the Storm (3)

Boom!

Nia Ryan looked at the broken glass bottle in vain. Small pieces of glass were blocked by the barrier and fell.

“Ah, that was the third try!”

As I shouted in anger, Isabella, the alchemy department seat next to me, laughed.

“Aren’t you possessed by Delrin’s fairy?”

“Maybe… It really might be.”

Nia plucked her own white blonde hair. Since she met Louis earlier, her experiments didn’t go well. Could it be that she was bragging and talked too much? Nia wondered if she should postpone her experiment until tomorrow.

“I’ll take a break for a while.”

“Yes. Don’t push yourself too hard-“

“Arather..”

Nia went outside with her limp body. As she breathes in the clean outside air instead of the laboratory air that has been turbid from frequent experiments, she seems to be able to clear her head at least.

Nia squeezed her temples with both of her index fingers.

“What really happened to her hair. Why does she make that basic mistake… Mmm.”

Nia Ryan.

Nickname is Ryan’s Heresy.

Aside from the fact that she is a wizard from a family of knights, her small size is unusual for Ryan of average height.

However, it is difficult to misunderstand. She talks like a child and looks like a child, but Nia was on the clever side.

She had many advantages in acting like a child, so she only acted like this.

In reality, her deep inside is darker and duller than this. But that wasn’t her clothing. This was Nia Ryan’s way of surviving.

She has been feeling a bit strange lately. She met an opponent whose ‘mask’ did not work.

That was her kin – Louis de Christopher.

Although she was really young unlike herself.

“No, no. I can’t do that. He’s a Windsor… You are a fairy.”

Nia shook her head vigorously to erase her momentarily dark expression.

Nia’s feelings for Louis were neither interesting nor interested.

It was envy. He wasn’t a good character by anyone’s standards. Unlike other aristocrats who are reluctant to show her true feelings, he shows his feelings fully and behaves as he pleases.

Even so, no one hated him within the academy. Rather, everyone looks at them with feelings of liking. Why, she thought, Nia was in an overwhelming background that no one dared to say.

I was the one giving the notice to Windsor, not the receiving one-

It was different from his own situation, which would be difficult if his reputation deteriorated even a little, and it worked well to create a unique atmosphere that comes from such composure.

‘Me too… I want to live like that. I don’t care and I can be honest.’

Nia thinks so, but she knows that there is a big gap between her and herself.

Because of that, Nia has been doing her stress tight. And when she’s stressed out, she’ll do it in a not-so-nice way, as she always does.

“Isn’t there anything fun?”

It was to satisfy her own interests. At this time, she doesn’t pay attention to Nia.

Playing pranks once in a while is a virtue of a cute child. That’s because everyone has allowed it.

“Why not? This is where everyone can use it!”

“It is a decision of the Magic Council. Are you ignoring the expert’s words?”

“Eh, the Magic Council?”

“This agenda was passed unanimously by 24 experts. Classes below Common cannot use the Every Library.”

“Where is that!”

“Damn it, Lady Obillion. Why don’t you stop screaming? My ears hurt.”

‘He is… ….’

Nia came up with her whereabouts a few days ago, which caught her own attention a little bit.

‘Did you ask for help? They’re going to take over the library.’

A lovely child who even commoners feel sorry for! Nia accepted it imagining it.

After meeting Louis, she completely forgot-

“You will regret it. I will make you regret it! This was my last warning!”

‘By the way, Obillion… ?’

It was true that Catherine had come to ask for help, but she did not know her name. She must have been the famous Ovillian.

Nia scratched her head and tried to go back. She looks funny, but she didn’t like being on Ovilion’s side. Isn’t she from a dirty warlock family?

But then, for a moment, she had a very good idea.

‘Billion… black magic… A minion of a warlock?’

-Is that a chimera made from Adrane’s flowers? Ahh! Get rid of it quickly It’s like a black magician’s familiar.

A few days ago, a test subject made from Adrane flowers.

Isabella advised me to deal with it quickly, saying that it was just like a warlock.

So Nia had no choice but to dispose of her test subject 005.

‘When this experiment failed, the magic amplification instantly increased. What will happen if I combine it with that?’

Nia touched her chin. It was a pose she often made when her magical inspiration came.

‘I have to do it to understand, but it must be very strong. What if I unpack it in the library?’

Nia’s eyes widened.

Her brain was running fast and she imagined various things.

Who do people think solved the chimera?

Wouldn’t you think that Lady Obillion, who was dissatisfied with the expert with a high probability, did it?

‘Oh, that sounds like fun.’

The risk is pretty big, but originally pranks have to be a bit risky to be fun.

Nia ran to her lab with a big smile. Her time was running out to fit her plan.

Apparently, the scale of this prank was a bit bigger.

“What did you find me for, Louis Christopher?”

Damon crossed her legs apprehensively. When she saw the fox sitting on Louis’ shoulder, she smiled.

“A livestock that suits you. At first glance, it is small and gentle, but what lies inside is a ferocious talent for violence.”

‘Did you find out?’

Ruid looked at Damon again. Did he read that look in his eyes? Damon said in a bad mood.

“Don’t be cocky. Do I look like an idiot that you can’t even recognize?”

“Yes.”

“…… You’re still a brat.”

“It was a joke.”

“I knew. There’s no way you, my rival, would say such a thing.”

Where did that confidence come from, Ruid was genuinely curious.

“You maintain an overbearing attitude, Prince Damon.”

“Do you call me prince until four years old? It’s been gone for a long time, so get rid of it.”

Damon waved his hand in annoyance. Hersy said with a sullen face.

“You can think of it as a family that has been interacting with each other for three years. Were we that close?”

“A day is enough to make friends.”

“Dating a girl?”

Damon raised an eyebrow.

“What do you mean?”

“…… Sophia’s dormitory probably isn’t there. Leaving the one with the fiancé behind-“

Damon clicked his tongue and looked at Ruid.

“The girl is really annoying. Don’t you think so? How dare you have the arrogant illusion that only one person can have a man like this.”

Hersy stood up and shouted.

“Don’t teach our Ruid strange things!”

“… Our Ruid?”

Damon looked back and forth between Louis and Hercy, then raised the corner of his mouth.

“The relationship seems to have progressed quite a bit. Congratulations Hersey. You have gained a bond that cannot be achieved even if you are reborn a hundred times.”

Ruid thought while listening to the story with a drowsy expression.

‘Ah, this won’t work.’

The main character in a novel grows quickly only through trials.

Originally, the ordeal, Hercy, was over, so the purpose was to find a new villain.

That way, even if he plays and eats himself, Justin can take care of all the troublesome things……

I think the ordeal was too harsh.

Come to think of it, if the villain is Damon, is there a way to deal with it?

Unlike Hercy, Damon is not afraid to abuse his power. On the contrary, sometimes he does things that even the emperor would not do.

“Anyway, let’s get to the point. Aren’t you asking me for something?”

Damon continued.

“It’s true that the cheeky commoner messed up- but it’s also true that he ruined your presentation unintentionally. Tell me I will listen to you personally.”

“That part is fine. I got another reward.”

Damon frowned.

“I was the one who ruined the briefing, so why am I being compensated by someone else? It is unacceptable.”

“… So what do you want to hear?”

“Of course!”

Damon hit the table with a bang.

“Tell me anything. In the name of this Damon Kairos, I’ll listen to anything!”

‘… What a weird guy.’

As Damon’s face came closer, Louis pulled her chin back in disgust. Hercy protected Ruid with her body.

Seeing Hersy glaring at him, Damon sat back down.

Ruid opened her mouth.

“Just… Do it now.”

“What?”

Ruid turned her head away for nothing.

“Like now… keep on punching me Especially for the common people.”

“Well, I got it. You want to bully the commoners?”

“… I didn’t say that.”

“I know. Ruid. Even though you look decent, no one hates commoners more than you.”

“Well, no… “

“It makes me not want to live. Don’t worry, it’s my specialty.”

Before Ruid had time to say anything, Damon got up and trudged away.

Ruid met Hercy’s eyes.

“This is great.”

“Awesome.”

**

Originally, I was thinking of asking Damon to be the librarian for a while.

Because librarian ‘Isabella Crimson’ is going to be sick that day, she will be looking for a replacement.

But she gave up.

It wasn’t going to help Justin grow, it was like he could permanently break an arm or a leg-

Above all, even if Damon can’t be predicted, it’s too bad.

Let’s just let Damon be targeted by Justin.

Anyway, the fact remains that Justin needs a final boss to give him a trial.

‘Should I use a fox?’

Ruid looked at Miho. It would be a suitable ordeal if she adjusted her powers, but she didn’t want to find out about this existence itself.

‘… Or do I myself?’

Wouldn’t that be too much?

Since Louis was possessed, she was inexperienced.

It’s too hard to control my strength. Besides, there are too many rare things in this library.

Wouldn’t the president cry if he had an accident here?

Ruid was a solid boy who knew how to respect the elderly.

More than anything, it’s annoying.

Then all that’s left is……

“Hercy.”

There is only the villain of the original work.

“It is actually expensive to make.”

“… Yes??”

“Should I pay for what I ate? Please do me one favor.”

Hersh was momentarily taken aback, but nodded his head obediently.

“Even if it’s not Mandragora, if it’s Ruid’s request… Something?”

I was reluctant to entrust it to Hercy.

He doesn’t hesitate to step out himself.

Above all, it is best to postpone work to others.

“You, be the final boss.”

‘I need to prepare the popcorn in advance.’

Let’s postpone it to Hercy, and let’s sit in a corner and watch.

Ruid smiled heartily.
