90 – Hatchling wakes up (2)

“If you look at this magic circle here… ….”

Phenicia was working hard on her lecture, but her students couldn’t concentrate.

Louis Christopher.

The youngest member of the House of Windsor, a genius wizard.

Her title is Delrin’s Fairy, Lazy Ruid.

To the academy students, Ruid’s existence was a mystery itself.

They go to school once a month or not, and the sightings they encounter from time to time are absurd. She said she saw her sleeping in a meadow, she said she saw her sleeping on a roof, and so on.

Particularly recently, there was even a rumor that it was difficult to know whether it was true or not, saying that ‘half of the imperial family was frozen!’.

To think that such a Young master would attend class. Also as an assistant professor. It was only natural that the eyes of the students taking ‘Delrin’s Theory of Magic’ were focused on Ruid.

Hersy couldn’t concentrate on her studies either. You can study anytime, but today’s Ruid can only see today.

‘Ah… You’re so cute… !’

Ruid was sitting in her chair, munching on a baguette. She did and within a minute she dozed off.

“…… This theory!”

As Phenicia’s voice rose slightly, Louis opened her eyes. She looked around her in bewilderment before she put the baguette back in her mouth.

…… And she dozed off again. Her Louise’s small shoulders moved regularly. Eventually she fell asleep.

‘This isn’t the time like this.’

It wasn’t the time to watch Ruid doze off. She had a mission for Hercy. A mission that requires her to be recognized as the successor.

She tried to focus on her studies again. But-

‘…… Wouldn’t today be fine?’

Eventually, Hercy, who gave up her studies, had her eyes on Louis.

It was cute. She didn’t need anything other than that. It feels like the uncomfortable feeling of meeting the fox abuser in the morning is being healed.

‘How nice it would be if the whole world were Ruid.’

In such a beautiful world, Hercy would be very happy.

Hersie thought that the other students’ eyes on her Louis would be of the same mind as hers.

‘…… Come to think of it, it’s only natural that the Windsor family is on good terms.’

It was only natural that Irene and Amelia cherished each other. He was different from Hercy himself. She herself is neither that cute nor lovely.

She is different from herself.

‘…… Am I dreaming a dream I can’t chase?’

I tried to look at the textbook.

The black handwriting did not catch my eye.

**

Ruid, who had been dozing off, suddenly opened her eyes.

‘I want to sleep more.’

Her mind was still hazy, but she raised her head, rubbing her sleepy eyes. It was very difficult for her to hold back sleep with the body of a child.

Still, I watched everything while sleeping.

She had Klein in her eyes with blurry vision. He closed his eyes and was meditating.

‘Good class attitude… I have a habit of checking two or three times before using magic. Are you generally punctual?’

But the subtle anger I felt when I saw myself earlier.

That was clearly an attitude I didn’t like. The cause seemed to be because of ignoring the handshake during the first encounter.

‘Is it wise to see that you didn’t show off? But the pretentious nature… If you look at the fact that you can’t hide it perfectly, there’s an emotional side to it.’

Ruid remembered the original story.

There was information about Klein. She stuck by Justin’s side and she bullied Hersy. For example, ‘I’m really disappointed. You are the shame of Minerva.’

‘But in the original story… No one likes Hercy.’

I decided to judge further and got down from the chair.

Phenicia was carefully examining the proposals submitted by the students. Louis grabbed Phenicia’s collar and pulled it.

“Young master?”

“I will help you. Because that’s what I have to do.”

Recreating Delrin’s magic was the goal of this class.

Today, I planned to receive proposals in advance before taking the exam and give advice one by one.

Originally, the assistant professor would filter it once and judge for himself.

In the end, even if it took time, Phenicia had no choice but to do everything, but when she volunteered to help, the color turned bright.

“Thank you for doing so. Please exclude those that are too unlikely to be realized.”

“Feasibility?”

“Oh, sorry. There is no such thing as Gongja. Well, because it is the standard of students. I think you can exclude magic that requires level 4 or higher.”

Ruid received her proposal and headed to the empty desk with her yawn. The student next to her greeted her with a nod.

‘I’m sorry, but you guys aren’t interested.’

The only thing that mattered to Louis was the people around her. So she quickly turned over the plan.

‘No, this is wrong.’

At first, it was a bit annoying.

‘The limbs are upside down?’

‘No, I understand the intention, but why is it complicated?’

‘This doesn’t work at all.’

The more she passed, the more the corners of her mouth twitched.

‘… This bastard just copied it.’

For reference, I copied Klein. It was Hercy’s older brother.

I only looked this far and put away the documents.

She raised her head with an embarrassed face. He stared at Phenicia.

“Young master?”

Sensing his gaze, Phenicia asked curiously.

Ruid spoke without hesitation.

“Can I point this out myself?”

“Go, it would be a great thing if Young master would look after it in person. Maybe the students will want it too. But, are you serious?”

If it were original, I would never do it.

I didn’t even take this class in the first place.

‘Of course. I’ve grown up.’

Louise nodded her head. Phenicia smiled brightly.

“What a big decision you made! Thank you.”

‘…… Were their expectations of me that low?’

Such a reaction like this.

Ruid was embarrassed to be.

“First of all.”

Ruid stepped on her desk and stood up. Only then will her eye level match. Looking around, she said.

“I think everyone thinks magic is too difficult.”

“But, Delrin’s magic is difficult.”

It was a woman with drooping eyes. Louis stared at her and said firmly.

“It is your preconceived notions that make it difficult. Magic gets harder the more you think about it. Because magic is a mystery that shows the most plausible thing that human beings can imagine.”

Despite what it looks like, we’ve done quite a lot of experiments. It’s been a year since she possessed it.

I found out how far it can be done with magic and how far it can’t be done.

As a result, I was able to realize a few rules. There was a big difference between the magic that thought even nonsensical logic and the magic that didn’t.

In other words, magic is self-confidence.

The logic itself may be nonsense. It is enough that the caster can believe it.

“This magic, for example.”

I heard a magic circle.

“It’s a mixture of fire and water. Perhaps, it seems that they wanted a powerful fire magic that would not be extinguished by water, but it was strangely made, so it is a magic circle that is far from the original meaning.”

The cheeks of the girl who is believed to have drawn this magic circle turned red.

“Fire is weak to water.”

The students nodded. Yea, that’s very natural Attributes have affinity. It is a value that never changes.

“But no.”

“?”

“Fire and water are related to each other.”

“Yes?”

“We didn’t get along well until now, but from today we decided to become close. I just came to see you reconciled.”

“Yes??”

Of course, this is absurd sophistry.

But in the world of magic, it’s different.

Hwaruk-

“Fire.”

Kurreuk-

“Water.”

Fire and water merged on Ruid’s hand. It was so bizarre that it was ecologically objectionable.

“Look, can we get to know each other?”

Ruid removed the magic.

The students looked at me with blank expressions.

‘Perhaps, if the science and engineering student had been possessed, she would not have used magic well.’

It must have been very limited. They instinctively think that what is not possible is not possible.

However, the unemployed person is different.

There was a secret skill that all unemployed people have, the ‘self-justification’ skill.

That’s why you can use any kind of magic.

“The magic circle is a tool. It’s just a means to use magic easily, but it can never be the main thing.”

Ruid burned the stack of documents.

The students’ eyes widened at the burning documents.

But not all the papers were burned. Only one document flew into Ruid’s hand.

“Everything was weird, but there was one normal thing. Klein Minerva.”

“Yes.”

Klein jumped to his feet. She showed a confident smile.

After looking at Hercy, who was diligently taking notes, with a gaze close to mockery, he looked at Ruid with a nobleman’s greeting.

“This magic circle is perfect. It is a magic that can be operated normally, but does not exist in this world.”

Exactly-

“It’s magic that can be used with just a ‘magic circle’.”

I meant that I didn’t think of it myself.

As if it was a compliment, Klein gave a satisfied smile. She nodded her head once as if apologizing.

However, he had no choice but to harden his expression immediately after hearing what Ruid said next.

“Where did you copy it? Klein Minerva. With your skills, this is impossible. Because, to complete this magic circle, you need at least 5th tier magical knowledge. But Klein, you’re a third-tier talent even if you play well. Even if I die, I can’t become the 5th tier.”

Ruid’s expression when he said that was too cruel.

**

The Imperial House.

The content of this agenda was ‘the establishment of a bodyguard under the direct control of the emperor’.

“Judging from the last incident, it is not good for the administration of the state for His Majesty to have a very strong knight corps.”

“We propose a direction for determining operational control through a vote.”

“By what right do you dare to move His Majesty’s direct personal guard? It’s not going to happen. Your Majesty, the problem is the individual knight. Please select a person with a clear identity for this knights! Strength is important to what a knight needs, but I think he needs honor as well.”

The nobles were busy opposing each other’s opinions.

It was a clash of desires. Lucius silently watched them fight.

After the fuss subsided, Lucius opened his mouth. His answer was already given.

“Black Amelia Windsor. As for magic, take advice from Louise Christopher Windsor. I will also hand over the mandate of the newly created Imperial Knights to those two.”

“…… !”

In this case, the blame lies with the royal family losing to Windsor.

If you leave it to Windsor, the nobles will lose the right to protest.

“…… Yes, Your Majesty.”

“It is considered correct and judged.”

Having Windsor form a bodyguard under the direct control of the emperor is to prove that the Duke of Windsor is still alive and well, and at the same time, to prove that he has enormous influence over the imperial family.

While appropriately praising Windsor, who suffered damages from her in this incident, at the same time, she established a justification for having the emperor’s personal knights again.

At first glance, a reasonable judgment. No, this was the only way for the emperor to have a private soldier without paying attention to the nobles.

But- the Emperor’s will was elsewhere.

‘The Duchy of Windsor is inherited by Amelia Windsor. If she organizes her knights, she can take one step towards that goal.’

No matter how emperor you are, you cannot join the succession of the Duke of Windsor.

But it is true that it can have a huge impact.

In the first place, the Duke of Windsor’s ‘success test’ was closely related to the emperor.

Amelia Windsor should do more than Irene Windsor.

Lucius just needs to avoid standing in the front and give directions from behind.

However, the problem was that Irene Windsor was too good. Standing against Amelia alone is a shortcut to her defeat.

So, Lucius came up with the only key that could shake the game.

‘Louid Christopher. I’ll have to use that child.’
