ALL NOVEL Epilogue (1)
?The man sits quietly on a tree stump and looks up at the blue sky.
A well-dressed shirt, silk vest, linen trousers, bluish overcoat and thin wizard’s robes.
It was a cramped outfit, but I had no choice but to keep my neatness. Still, she now has no other eyes to see, so she sits with a slightly more relaxed attitude.
Put up the tobacco. It was a bad habit I learned while hanging out with a senior professor, but there is nothing like this when it comes to organizing my thoughts.
Then he looks up at the sky and thinks while listening to the chirping of the birds. Past, Present, Future, and Cliff Points. Various thoughts were but once I was certain, what I had to do was decided.
And there are questions that inevitably follow those who survive.
It was a question about how to live.
*It was the first time in two years that Tracyana Bloomriver came to the Sylvania Academy.
“After all, you will come here again after graduation…”
After I paid the driver and packed my things and got off, Aken Island over the sea caught my eye.
In the catastrophe of last year, Maxeth Bridge collapsed, but the newly constructed Bloom River Bridge has taken its place since then.
It is a much more spacious and neat bridge than the old Maxes Bridge. As the bridge was built with support from the Bloom River family, its name was Bloom River Bridge.
After Tracyana, an elderly woman got off the carriage.
Sinir Bloomriver, head of the Bloom River family.
She came down from the carriage, served by the servants, looked at the bridge leading to the Sylvania Academy and spoke.
“The construction itself looks pretty good. It’s been quite some time since it was completed, but I’ve been so busy so far, so I’m just checking it out now.”
“Mom… No, the headmaster was busy with work at home. It’s no big deal not to come and check it out in person.”
“Still, it was a business that cost a lot of money for the family, so I wanted to see it with my own eyes. Well… I’ll see you often now.”
Sinir put on a leather-lined cloak and then cleaned up her outfit.
She was the new professor of alchemy at the Sylvania Academy.
Sylvania Academy lost more than half of its staff in the catastrophe last year. So, in order to recruit as many new faculty members as possible, all kinds of personnel were called in.
Those who were interested in teaching answered the call, but most turned it down.
As it was the Sylvania Academy that suffered a lot, it felt like an unstable place because I didn’t know how the situation would turn out in the future.
However, since the name has been accumulating, new positions have been filled by the presidents of various societies, the masters of matapas, the retired knights of famous knights, the mercenaries, and the authorities in alchemy.
Sinir Bloomriver also had a lot of work to do as the head of Bloom River, but he was convinced that his daughters were taking over the family business well, so he decided to take up the teaching profession.
Those who survived the scene of the disaster where Seong Chang-ryong Velbrok ran wild seemed to have done all the hard work to manage the academy somehow.
And at this point, two years and several months later, the damage has been restored to a certain extent.
Sinir was almost the last member of the new faculty. He is, in a way, the first faculty member to teach after the restoration of the academy.

More than 70% of the buildings were destroyed, but they were all rebuilt with the support of the imperial family, the upper house, and the church.
I wonder if a new heyday has come thanks to the buildings that shine like new.
But the scars remained.
A large stele is erected near the end of the Bloom River Bridge.
It was a monument with the names of the victims of the catastrophe last year.
The monument erected to commemorate them and not to forget them appears to be well over several meters in size.
Looking at the names filled in on the large tombstone, Tracyana let out a sigh.
“These names are very heavy for you who were present at the time.”
Tracyiana was a student in Sylvania during the disaster two years ago. She was about to graduate, and since she was a senior in her grade, she ran around trying to make the most of her juniors.
I tried my best to save a lot, but I also died a lot.
Tracyana looked up at the tombstone for a moment, then shook her head refreshingly.
*“Uh, oh my…! oh my! I didn’t hear that Senior Professor Sinir was appointed today… but…! I’m sorry! You’ve come a long way! Right now, there is a shortage of bachelor manpower and the schedule is full…! No, you shouldn’t treat me like this… I… I apologize…!”
People about Sinir have been appointed as professors, but there are no proper people to greet them.
If it’s normal, it might be a situation where you have to shout, but after seeing the situation in the newly built Trix Pavilion, Shinir kept her mouth shut.
No one was so busy that no one was invisible.
It was good enough to run this huge school with just over half of what it had in its prime.
Claire, who was promoted to full professor sooner than expected, was walking across the Trix Hall with wide eyes holding a bunch of papers.
Professor Claire’s job was to guide Professor Sinir, as he was also in charge of personnel management.
“You look very crazy. I must be put into practice as soon as possible.”
Sinir was polite to me.
Professor Claire suddenly burst into tears as she looked dignified even if she pretended to be.
“Senior Professor Sinir is… a common sense person…”
“…Yes? Did I do something?”
“No. Because you respond with respectful encouragement to a polite apology… Somehow, tears…”
What kind of treatment is this person receiving with the title of full professor?
Sinir kept her mouth shut as asking for more details would be an act of brooding over wounds.
“Then… ah… that’s right. Tracyana student. She has become really reliable. She had grown so much more mature than when she was a student, I almost didn’t recognize her. It’s been two years at most, but people change really quickly.”
“Assistant Professor Claire… No, Professor. How have you been?”
“How have you been… I can’t even say that in empty words. In the beginning, the more transitional it is, the more work there is. Still, it’s all done and I have to do it. Thanks for your concern, Student Tracyana. Oh look at my mind I’m not a student anymore.
Claire placed the pile of papers on her work desk and corrected her speech.
“Assistant Professor Tracyana.”
While Sinir went to check out her private lab, Tracyana followed Professor Claire to get a job.
Professor Claire, who arrived at the private laboratory giving instructions on the way, opened the window and ventilated as soon as she entered.
Tracyana clicked her tongue as she looked at the number of papers, not less, if she had done more than when she was an assistant professor.
You look like a fool and lament every day. Professor Claire has such an image, but in reality, he was doing the work of a few people by himself.
A lot of the assistant professor’s tees have also disappeared, so I’m good at most things now. Anis, the head assistant, is not graduating now, but it feels like the speed of work has gotten faster.
“You haven’t been told who your advisor is yet, have you? Tracyana Assistant Professor.”
“Yeah… you must be Professor Claire, aren’t you?”
“I am no longer responsible for anyone …”
“Ah… yes…”
Tracyana made a sad face as she looked at Professor Claire with tears in her eyes.
Professor Claire quickly pulled out a certain document from among the documents, then swung it through to check the contents.
Probably a list of advisors who will be in charge of assistant professors.
After looking through the list for a while, Professor Claire laughed embarrassedly.
“Ahaha, Assistant Professor Traceyana must also have a hard time.”
“Yes? Is my advisor a strict person?”
“No. Rather than…”
Professor Claire swung the paperwork and showed it to Traceiana.
The professor’s name next to Assistant Professor Tracyana was… familiar.
– ‘Ed Roth Taylor’
“…what?”
“Is that a name you know?”
“Obviously, I was in 3rd grade when I graduated…? Why… is your name listed as my advisor?”
Professor Claire was contemplating where to begin, but first opened her mouth because it would be easier to talk from the conclusion.
“I was appointed as a special professor at the beginning of this year. A letter of recommendation from Princess Penia, who was appointed as the next emperor, and a letter from Saint Clarisse came in at the same time. As soon as I graduate, I get the title of full professor, and now I am going to be appointed as a senior professor as soon as I have a few years of experience. Just looking at the speed, it seems like the department head will be sweet in a few years.”
“A senior professor at that age…? It’s an unprecedented greeting…”
“In addition to the revolutionary achievements made at the time of the disaster, in the fields of Elemental Arts and Magical Engineering, even the professors have achieved so much that they cannot say anything. Besides, in the field of sexuality studies, he is virtually unrivaled…”
He is a professor who can cover both Spirituality and Magical Engineering at the same time, and he is also a man who can touch on the Holy Spirit.
Besides, he has a noble background and charisma that leads the students… He was a talent he never wanted to miss from the standpoint of a bachelor who was struggling because of a lack of manpower.
As proof of that, the bachelor took Ed Roth-Taylor to the point of giving him unprecedented and unprecedented treatment. Besides being known externally, rumors also circulated that there were many other conditions that went under the Roth Taylor family at the academic level.
It’s just a rumor, but there have been many rumors that much of the real power of the Sylvania Academy has gone to the Roth Taylor side.
Senior professor at the age of early 20s. When Tracy Ana thought about her position as an assistant professor, the difference became real.
Even Professor Glast, who was promoted quickly and became the first professor, knew he was in his late 30s at the time. At that time, he was also famous for his unconventional greetings.
“The person who was a junior became the advisor, so Tracyana assistant professor must be a little embarrassed.”
“No. I don’t really care about that. In the first place, the duke was the son of a child, and it was rather inconvenient to treat him. But… I have no idea how the work will be done.”
“Actually, that’s the part I’m really worried about. Professor Ed Roth-Taylor is out of the question.”
“…Yes?”
He rose to prominence at an unbelievable pace, and in an instant he was on par with Professor Claire.
In fact, as time went on, it was obvious that Ed Roth-Taylor would be higher up. Being in an equal position would only be temporary right now. Already, his achievements and the resulting honor were famous throughout the empire.

Many of the freshman candidates were excited about being able to see Professor Ed Roth-Taylor in real life when they come to Sylvania. Although Tracy Ana, not interested in her teaching, was unaware.
“You do all the basic work neatly, but it’s hard to see you well because you have a lot of work to do. Normally, he doesn’t come from the private research lab I set up in the North Forest, but it’s harder to find it during vacations.”
“Is that right?”
“Even if you go out of school a lot, you don’t see him often these days… If you think about what I said before that you’re going to Roth Taylor’s home during vacation, you might be going to her hometown now..”< /p>
“No, you didn’t even tell me where you were going, did you just wander around like that?”
“…But you’re doing everything you need to do… I can’t say anything… Working with a great or extraordinary person in the first place is really difficult… I don’t know..”
It was obvious that he was a certain person as far as the job was done. In fact, I was such a person even when I was a student.
Tracyana shrugged her chin and pondered for a moment. She said she must have misunderstood her advisor… She thought so.
“I still have three documents to hand over, but Assistant Professor Tracyana, please pass them on to me. If it’s not in the North Forest Lab… I don’t know where you’ll be…”
“Ah, yes… papers…”
This is my first job since I took over.
Find Ed Roth-Taylor and deliver the paperwork.
“Aside from that, I have to prepare for the graduation ceremony for the 4th graders. Since the youngest professor is in charge of handling it, I think it should be done by Assistant Professor Tracyana.”
Besides, preparing for the graduation ceremony for the current 4th graders.
“Hey, I can do this kind of work.”
“Yes. That’s great, Assistant Professor Tracyana…”
Professor Claire looked at Traceiana and felt faint for a moment. It was because he remembered the days when he was appointed as the youngest professor and his work was overshadowed.
Now that I am in a position where I am in charge of my work, the years are insignificant.
But that didn’t mean my workload was reduced.
Tracyana glanced at the documents that were delivered to her.
“Is this document…?”
“Professor Ed Roth-Taylor will be working during the vacation. Actually, you don’t have to do all of them, you just need to choose one of the three.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. All of them are important tasks, but it is difficult to complete them within the rest of the vacation period. Still, I want you to finish at least one of the three. If possible, before the vacation is over.”
By the way, the vacation period is almost over. Looking at the academic calendar, after completing the freshman selection test and sending out the graduates, the next school starts.
“You must be busy taking care of the freshman selection test, but I hope you find the time to handle it.”
“I see…”
Tracyana opened the first document.
“Pulan…?”
“Oh, that’s it. Do you know Pulan, the land of cattle? It is a place where the dairy fields are wide open.”
“Yeah…”
“Recently, I got a call from the research team at the undergraduate level. The record of the highest wind spirit ‘Tir’kallax’, which was famous in the past, was cut from there.”
“If it’s Tyr’kallax… a giant bear-like spirit the size of a ridge… right?”
“Yes. Right. Actually, the academic research field is a less important task, but if you do not handle the academic field work on time, you will be inspected by the imperial family. The least amount of research work should be continued.”
Professor Claire continued the conversation while signing other documents.
“Recently, literature on Tyrkallax’s writings has been found in the Pulan region. This is a great discovery in the field of spirit science. Professor Ed is the only one who can use his hands right now among the Spirit Studies professors, so if there are any left, I’m asking if you can go to the Pulan region to find out.”
“Is that so…”
“Well, it’s not particularly dangerous, but in case you don’t know, someone with the minimum combat ability should go.”
Tracyana nodded, then pulled out the other paperwork that followed.
This time, the documents were more realistic and practical.
“This is… the commercial city of Old Deck…?”
Visit freёwebnovel.com for the n𝘰vel reading experience.
“Yes. It’s probably a business trip request. It’s not academic research, it’s practical work related to logistics and distribution. Now is the time to renew the distribution negotiations with the Elte Trading Company, who is in charge of the logistics of the university.”
“Why is Professor Ed taking care of this…?”
“Professor Ed has a wide network of people at the top. Besides, I hear a lot of rumors that Old Deck’s situation isn’t too bad these days… I think the college hopes that a trustworthy person will appear.”
“Isn’t that unusual?”
Claire scribbled over the papers with a quill, then tilted her head as if contemplating for a moment.
“Do you know who the current owner of the Elte Company is? That old merchant named Slag Kel’Dlux.”
“Wasn’t it Lortel?”
“The official title of a Lortel student was ‘Deputy Director of Hoiju’. While Lortell was in Sylvania, she needed a face to sit in the actual meeting place. To manage the headquarters of the Elte Chamber in the Old Deck, her title of deputy is not enough.”
Joined with Lortel, overthrowing the golden king Elte, and holding the position of lord until Lortel returned to Sangdo.
“By the way, there are rumors that the Lortel student is planning to avoid it in order not to return his seat after graduation. Perhaps they have ambitions to reshape the power balance of the Old Deck.”
“I am not used to the story of such vulgar merchants…”
“Me too. What is certain is that the situation in Old Deck is not serious… At least, Professor Ed, who has a wide network of local people, is saying that it would be better to go directly.”
It was definitely an understandable decision. It would be okay to assign another person in charge, but from the standpoint of leading a bachelor’s degree, it was better to have a person who can handle the work.
“Then the last document is…”
“Ah, that’s a request for a business trip to the Lamelen Mountains.”
“What kind of business trips do you have so many?”
“People with original abilities are often asked to do it. That’s the Scout’s job.”
Tracyana swallowed dry saliva and flipped through the paperwork.
“You know the wizard Zelan the Severer, right? Professor Glast and Professor Kaleid, a sorcerer who participated in the Ain war with the two of them… Recently, it is said that they appear in the Lamelen Mountains following the traces of the Archmage Glockt… Looking at the traces of his life. What…”
“Are you planning on scouting this person for a professorship?”
“You are a man of great ability. However, recently there have been rumors that you are interested in the study of Aspect Magic… I thought that it would most likely be best to ask Professor Ed, who is the best expert in Aspect Magic in the bachelor’s, to persuade him. Currently, there is a shortage of manpower for bachelors, so I will definitely want to bring them.”
“Okay. But, will you come to persuade me…”
“Okay. In fact, it is most certain that Principal Obell, who is lying on the bed right now, will go directly, but he cannot move because he is unable to move…”
Professor Claire continued to speak in a voice of regret.
“Student Lucy, who is proficient in character magic, left school while recovering her magical powers and entrusted herself to the Roth Taylor mansion… After all, Professor Ed is the right person for me.”
Glast the Seeker, Khalaid the Outlaw, Zelan the Severer.
Zelan was one of the three wizards who lived together with Obel during the war and achieved the most revolutionary achievements. He was also the one who entrusted the Ain children to the Abbey of Austin’s Cledrick Abbey.
“Obviously…it’s too tight to handle all three at once. It’s one of the most important things, but…”
“So, if you find Professor Ed, please tell me to pick one and dispose of it.”
“Yes, I understand… But, how do I find Professor Ed…”
When Tracyana asked that question, Professor Claire answered with a grin.
“It would be quickest to visit a private lab in the North Forest. If you’re not there, check out all the other facilities of the school… If it’s not on Aken Island… It’s also during the vacation period…”
Professor Claire’s hard-nosed smile was somehow ominous.
She pulled out a piece of paper that had been stuck between the papers and laid it out on the desk.
It was a map that showed the entire empire at a glance.
At that point, Tracyana felt an ominous sensation.
“Hey, maybe…”
“From here.”
Professor Claire grabbed the edge of the center of the Empire. The northern end of the Roth Taylor estate managed by Tanya Roth Taylor, California.
“Up to this point.”
And to the Baron Failover, which is also attached to the southern end.
“If you stop by, you’re probably here somewhere.”
Tracyana’s face turned bright blue. If Professor Claire couldn’t find him within Arken Island in the first place, then there’s no way she’s tracy just because she’s Tracy Ana.
As soon as he took office, his first mission was to ride a wagon to the center of the continent and run for several days. I wanted to know what was going on, but I couldn’t help it.
It was the fate of the youngest professor.
