Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

74 – Young master in the mysterious forest (1)

Morning. The professors who came to work murmured.

“This is… “

Complex magic circles were embroidered in the air.

“Barrier… Yes.”

Phenicia touched the magic circle with a blank face.

It was a warm barrier that had just been created, and it seemed that it was being applied.

At this rate, it would take three to three days.

“Who would have done this?”

“It is a very difficult barrier. At this rate, several imperial mages would have to gather… Vice-Chancellor. Has there been an official letter from the imperial family to reinforce the barrier?”

Phenicia shook her head.

“No. And, even if she left the imperial family, it doesn’t make sense that a barrier of this level was completed overnight.”

The professors looked bewildered.

We looked at each other and whispered.

Then, Clifford walked over with a solemn expression.

“Tsk tsk. Do all of you have knotholes in your eyes?”

“Father, no. President.”

“In the academy, who in the whole empire can design a barrier of this level?”

Clifford looked up at the sky.

It was truly spectacular to see countless magic circles covering the sky.

“Unless Archmage Delrin survives from the grave, only one person can use this barrier. This is Louis Christopher.”

Clifford chuckled.

“That bastard, he must have felt sorry for blowing up the main building.”

Ruid walked towards the academy with a refreshing expression.

“As expected, simple is best.”

I feel like my head has become lighter after clearing out all the troubles that were complicated in many ways.

‘Yes. I’m going to live a lazy life like this all the time.’

Ruid decided not to hesitate anymore.

In the meantime, she hesitated to act because of the worries that she would have to do if she were a minimum human.

She decided not to notice anyone else. Original or whatever.

Ruid decided to keep one thing in mind.

He gets rid of anyone who gets in the way of his daily life and laziness.

…… Except for the family.

“It’s really amazing every time I see it.”

“Isn’t it? What is that?”

“Maybe we are in history.”

“I have to remember this scene.”

‘Huh?’

Arriving at the main gate of the academy, Ruid looked up at the sky.

No, he didn’t even have to look at the sky.

Wherever I looked, there were colorful magic formations.

What flows from there is…… It was Ruid’s own magical power.

“… ….”

Ruid entered the academy with cloudy eyes.

‘I didn’t know it would turn out like this.’

From noble mtl dot com

It takes time for the barrier to be applied. As a caster, of course I knew.

I never thought that such a geometric magic circle would continue to float in the air.

‘… Why are people gathering?’

There were many people near the main gate.

Ruid headed there with curious eyes.

Quaang-!

I did something, but the professors were huddled together to test the strength of the barrier.

Phenicia’s fireballs mercilessly hit the walls.

“Even though it’s not perfect, it’s like this.”

“It’s a bigger barrier than I thought.”

“Damn it, when the hell is Prince Louis coming?”

Ruid turned around without hesitation.

“Hey, over there! It’s Prince Louis!”

“Catch it!”

Ruid ran away with all his might.

**

“Whew.”

Ruid wiped the sweat from his forehead.

I used magic to escape, but it was because of the tension that I shed sweat.

The professors who ran away with their taste were scarier than the zombie apocalypse.

‘I’ll have to hide for a while.’

Let’s postpone the explanation of the barrier to Hercy.

Ruid entered Delrin’s forest as usual.

But……

“!!”

I found a yellow hair ball lying on the floor.

It was Amelia.

“Nuna, is she dead?”

Ruid squatted in front of Amelia and pressed her head with her wand.

There was not even a slight movement.

Ruid put on a sad expression.

“Hello.”

Let’s have a good funeral.

He covered the large leaf next to Amelia.

“Kuhhh… ….”

“… You survived.”

Amelia raised her head. She trembled as she stretched out her hand to Louis.

“I am hungry.”

“… ….”

Kurrureung!

‘Lightning?’

Ruid opened her eyes wide and looked up at the sky.

… It was sunny.

It was the sound coming from Amelia’s belly.

‘Can a human stomach make such a sound?’

“Boat, boat… ….”

Louise sighed and took a blade of grass out of her pocket and put it in her mouth.

This is not just a puzzle game.

It was an all-purpose grass that modified nutrients with magic. In theory, eating this alone would keep you nutrient-dense.

“Eat this.”

By the way, Amelia didn’t chew the grass and just spit it out.

He looked at Ruid and said.

“Go, meat… “

Ruid’s eyes went cold.

**

Amelia says she has been starving for the past week.

What she didn’t tell herself was that she couldn’t tell her sister to cook for her because she was an older sister.

‘Then don’t starve.’

Amelia was a proud fool.

Ruid had no choice but to call Miho and ask her to catch her meat on the way.

Miho was a useful fox, just like she said. She is an arctic fox who catches wild boars. Wouldn’t she have been unfair from the boar’s point of view?

Wagu wagoo.

The large barbecue in Amelia’s hand quickly disappeared.

Amelia eats a lot.

Perhaps because it is an article, she tends to consume a huge amount of calories per day.

Ruid had no doubts that if Amelia moved on to modern times and she did mukbang, she would be top tier.

“Now, this is a fox.”

[Thank you!]

‘Then I’ll have to eat mine now.’

Ruid, who even took care of Miho’s hardships, started grilling his own meat. Ruid’s menu was steak. Although she is classic, she has a menu that no one can ignore.

“… ….”

She was grilling the meat and felt her gaze and turned her head away.

Amelia was holding her boar’s leg, which was scrawny to the bone.

By the way, the name of the wild boar that Miho caught is Giant Grill. True to its name, it had a gigantic body, and the leg part it gave to Amelia was bigger than Amelia herself.

She ate it all in less than five minutes… !

‘How hungry were you?’

“Mi-sorry.”

Amelia shook her head, her face turning red with shame.

Rumbling.

It seemed that he was still hungry.

“I won’t say anything if I eat kaimak when I go home later.”

“I’ve never stolen my sister’s Kaimak before.”

“… Wasn’t that you?”

“It must be Irene’s sister.”

Ruid shook her head and even grilled Amelia’s meat in one shot.

Cooking is a very cumbersome task. However, grilling meat was very simple with magic.

Louise, who sprinkled her salt on her, looked at Amelia, who looked like she would be humiliated, and said.

“Does it make sense to go hungry no matter how much money you have?”

Amelia’s shoulders twitched.

“Yes, yes. Louis.”

“No donations?”

Windsor, who usually left home, lives on donations.

It is a daily routine for nobles who want to make connections even a little to stand in line.

It doesn’t make sense that he never received any of her donations, no matter how much he had paid for Amelia.

“… Huh.”

“It makes no sense.”

Ruid suddenly opened his eyes.

Amelia smiled awkwardly, avoiding her gaze.

Actually, there was. However… ….

-I do not accept your gold. I was just doing what I was supposed to do as a knight.

-Sorry, but we cannot accept donations. I can’t take responsibility for any future.

I have refused myself!

Yeah, that’s cool as a knight…… In fact, the reaction of the people around me was, ‘It’s also Amelia-sama. Because it was noble, noble!’.

I’ve always thought that money was the bare minimum. She had no particular reason or need to spend it anywhere else because Louis had taken care of her accommodations. But I didn’t know that things would turn out like this.

“No, you can just hunt it yourself and eat it.”

“Big, Ruid. Noona looks like this, but she’s the leader of a knights… Hunting and eating any animal is an authority… “

“Stupid.”

“… !”

Amelia’s eyes twitched.

‘The authority as an older sister… !’

Louise, with her pitiful face on her face, used her mind to give her the grilled meat.

Amelia half-cryed as she bit off the meat.

‘Why is this so delicious?’

**

The Imperial Family.

“Your Majesty. They say a new barrier has been created at the academy.”

“A new barrier?”

Lucius took his eyes off the papers.

He could do several things at the same time, but he tends to do this when he gets an interesting report, like he does now.

“Interesting. Go on. What is the barrier level?”

“…… That is called a 5-star barrier.”

Lucius opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“If it’s a 5-star, isn’t it the barrier class installed in the imperial family?”

“This is also because the maximum grade that can measure the barrier is 5 stars, so I have received a report that it is worth more than that.”

“Amazing. Who is the talented person who created that barrier?”

“…… This is Louis Christopher.”

“What?”

Lucius, who knew how many wizards had to be replaced to create a barrier, was astonished.

“You mean Ruid completed the barrier alone?”

“Yes. Suddenly in the morning… “

Lucius could not stand it and cut off his words.

“Is that realistically possible?”

I know that Ruid’s skills are excellent.

But I never imagined it would be like this.

Lucius smiled brightly.

“I was worried about the infestation of uninvited guests at the academy where the talents of the empire were gathered. That is really good news.”

However, Michael broke out in a cold sweat.

“That…… “

“Is something wrong?”

“It is said that the medium used was Delrin’s staff.”

Michael lowered his head in anticipation of the emperor’s unholy orders.

Delrin’s staff was a gift from the emperor.

“Ha ha ha!”

Lucius laughed out loud.

“What’s wrong? Rather, I gave it back to the empire. You deserve praise.”

As the name suggests, the Imperial Academy belongs to the Empire.

Actions beneficial to the Imperial Academy eventually have a positive effect on the Empire.

‘…… If it’s a 5-star barrier, it’ll be able to respond sufficiently to foreign aggression. It will be of great use in the event of a war in the future.’

The emperor smiled bitterly.

To accept the goodwill of a child who is no different than a nephew in this way.

No matter how much he is the emperor in charge of the empire, Lucius did not like his calculating side.

But he said with a bright smile.

“I can’t just accept something like that and stay still. I should give Ruid something useful.”

“Yes. We will deliver it right away. What would you like to present?”

Lucius pointed his finger at Michael.

“… ?”

“You.”

“Yes? Oh no. Did I hear you wrong?”

“I should do this for my nephew who is having a hard time in class every time. The gift to give to Ruid is you. Assistant Michael. Pick about 5 people from the Imperial Knights and bring them back. Until Louise graduates from her academy, make sure there is no discomfort like her tip.”

Michael blinked her eyes.

“Yes?”

She committed disrespect by asking the emperor back.
