I Became a Face Genius at the Academy

Episode 10

[He must have tried to destroy the entire lab.]

That was the line of the main character who was not mistaken.

Originally, it was an option that opened only after finding and fulfilling various conditions, but since Rockstrin had a mouth open, he could talk freely.

“Everyone back off! Collapse!”

“Ah, Meiji Kanin inside!”

“If it’s him, there’s nothing to worry about.”

Pooh!

Piles of dirt rose from the wreckage of the collapsed laboratory. Kanin is no one else. An earth-attribute archmage who was given the middle name of a mage.

The fact that he was buried alive is a joke that cannot be used even as a joke.

“I can’t seem to get a video.”

“Did you know that you are also among the suspects?”

“Would you like to investigate?”

“All right.”

thud.

Kanin laughed dejectedly and lowered his staff. The rising dirt and dust settled all at once.

The workers were visibly surprised or relieved, but it was understandable to the other professors at Somerset who knew Kanin.

“then.”

Kanin quietly looked down at the boy in front of him. There were so many questions and overflowing questions about Lockstrin Aindarok.

A freshman with everything wrapped in a veil.

I could only see part of it now. There are over a hundred dead bodies of monsters scattered around the Tower of Truth.

The only student who came down was Rockstrin.

Even after dealing with that many monsters alone, he confronted the higher-level monsters, escaped, and came to find himself. When it comes to scoring, there are no points deducted for either combat ability or situational judgment ability.

“What do you think should be done?”

I’m not one to favor putting students on the exam table, but Rocktrin was an exception.

Clearly, the answer to this question is beyond the student’s level. Even an excellent senior student would find it difficult to answer. Because what you are asking is complex.

A considerable amount of time has passed since the magic was cast, and the already faint traces are now covered with its own magic, making it even more difficult to find.

Will Rocktrin be able to understand this—

“It is a non-attribute magic with a time difference. It would have required a level of sophisticated manipulation that is unimaginable for a 5-star or lower, but it wouldn’t be meaningful to blockade the area now.”

“haha.”

“What would be left if we looked up a list of external personnel that were urgently mobilized? Even Meiji Kanin’s words are likely to conclude with burying them.”

“is it.”

Kanin shook his head slowly.

No matter how long it took, just understanding would undoubtedly get a perfect score, but it was the realm of ordinary people.

Although he is called a great mage by the public and praised as a mage, he himself is also such a person.

This test has the wrong criteria.

Instant response without even a second of hesitation. There is not even a natural process of pouring mana into it and interpreting it.

For Rockstrin Aindarok.

It is just ‘visible’.

“I made a mistake.”

What, the senile wizard was right.

The world is sometimes cruel, and the deaths of innocent people are not surprising.

After witnessing the deaths of as many as six students, the reason why his sadness does not outstrip his excitement is because he does not have the qualifications to be a teacher.

Did you say it was in vain?

“I am not.”

“Is there something more?”

I got the feeling I got from my cheeky father again after 10 years.

I’d rather hit the player.

“Are you thinking of becoming my disciple?”

“There is not.”

“I’m glad.”

Kanin chuckled.

Similar but different. So I like it even more. It is a talent that surpasses Coltman.

He himself is not enough as a vessel to embrace this boy. And I know that too.

“I’m passionate about my studies.”

“Yes.”

“Cleaning up trash is something a leisurely old man like me should do.”

So, now was the time to fully express my anger.

[EPISODE CLEAR!]

I. broken peace

: The unprecedented raid incident has been completed.

Your performance is excellent.

The number of monsters could not be greatly reduced and there were not a few casualties, but Professor Emeritus Kanin successfully killed the high-ranking monsters.

Kanin also found important evidence to guess the full story of the case, and Kanin went on a chase.

[Comprehensive evaluation: Rank B+]

[Additional reward for grade B or higher: +1 special ability point]

“Whoa.”

The first episode ended successfully. this is how it works

After checking the script, I let out a sigh of relief.

Even if it’s a special ability, the ability doesn’t go up if it’s dizzy.

Therefore, if you miss even one of the additional rewards given when you are above grade B, the loss is enormous. If you can’t accept what is given to you, write it.

one coin.

When it comes to episodes, not a single failure is acceptable.

“There are no lectures at all.”

“If that happened, how would you normally go to class?”

“I bet Meiji Kanin isn’t even here right now?”

Since today’s class was cancelled, I trudged down the central street and headed for the tower.

Despite finishing the episode, the sense of exhaustion was greater than the sense of accomplishment.

It must have been at most 30 minutes, but it felt like I had endured for a week.

“It sucks, really… … .”

It was a miracle that I didn’t faint.

All the lights in the practice room were broken, so it’s a shame.

When it comes to the level of magic of the six dead boys, not one of them was inferior to Rockstrin.

There is no guarantee that what was left in such a place was not the smooth face of Rockstrin.

In this world, death is so close.

“Did you not hear? Because of your damn mine, our company owes 600 million won.”

oops

It wasn’t just death that was near. A fiercely sharp voice resounded in the middle of the campus.

The words were quite harsh for a conversation between aristocratic women sitting around a tea table.

“So what? Who threatened you with a knife to your throat? I have no ties to the business, so I am not interested in playing cheap money.”

“What, what… … .”

“I know investing is about taking that kind of risk. What do you mean, is that sweet?”

“Fuck you!”

Chew!

The steaming teacup flew through the air. Hira covered herself in hot tea with only her eyes closed.

“Not educated.”

Tok, tok.

After brushing off the spilled tea on her face several times, Hira stood up. Even the child who committed it was embarrassed and could not speak.

At this point, it is clearly an act of hostility.

Yuxilla went to Marquis, and throwing a hot teacup was something that could not be passed over as a light prank, no matter how summery it was.

“That, so this… … .”

“boring.”

Hira turned around and left the lawn as it was. It didn’t attract much attention because the campus was in a mess due to the events of the night before.

yeah this is what i have to do

This side is sprinkled this way, so the story must be progressing. I turned around and killed some time before returning to the tower.

‘The 10th floor?’

I suddenly looked at the number of floors lit up and saw that the elevator had stopped on the 10th floor.

Another student might have written it in the meantime, but in the early hours when there are no classes, especially at the Tower of Truth, there aren’t that many students.

More at readwn com

Just as expected.

“Is something bad happening?”

He spoke politely and approached.

Hira, who was hit by the wind on the railing where I was always leaning, shook her shoulders.

It must have been necessary to bring the sleeves of his clothes to his face before looking back.

“Do you see that just by looking at the back?”

“People who are so desperate in the morning are usually like that.”

“Whoops, yes.”

Looking back a bit later, Hira showed a forced smile.

“It’s also cluttered outside.”

“I heard you. six people… … It’s a disaster. The same thing happens in Summer Turf.”

“Were you sad enough to cry?”

“Does it show?”

When I nodded, Hira shook her head slowly with her eyes closed. The orange bobbed hair swayed helplessly.

“I am not very interested in men. I don’t really have any ties to that family. I’m sorry, but I’m not sad.”

“then?”

“This is just. just… … It’s personal.”

Ironically, when it comes to calling it the cause, you can’t blame Rocktrin or him.

To be resentful, first, it would be the person who dared to touch the flower on the cliff, second, it would be the wind that accidentally dropped the flower, and third, it would be the disaster that unexpectedly struck the territory.

“Can you tell me what’s going on?”

He is clumsy when it comes to being a descendant of a politician.

No matter how I look at it, I want you to ask me, while making a face. It wasn’t convincing.

“Mage Wirain is right.”

Hira’s gaze turned downward.

Hira Yuxilla, who was always full of confidence, was there, only one girl who was downcast.

“It is said that the same thing happened in our estate a few days ago.”

“… … A monster.”

“As you know, politicians like us don’t have many standing armies.”

What guides Yuxilla is, no matter what anyone says, the enormous capital power derived from the continent’s best mine. There’s a problem.

Who would attack the imperial marquess and the inland mines?

Although there are defenses, they are limited to monitoring petty thieves and escaping slaves.

There was no way to prepare for a sudden monster attack.

“The work has been completely stopped, and the contracted companies must be rampaging. If my mother, who was always confident, would tell me to ‘stay calm’… … I don’t think it’s going to end easily.”

What Hira took out from her chest was the letter she received from the lobby on the way up the tower.

It would have been nice if it was a greeting every week like usual, but the morning’s incident was not just hysteria. Rather, it would be better if it ended like that.

The situation of Yeong-ji, which was passed on from her mother, was much more serious than that.

“So, Rox is with me for the time being.”

―You better keep your distance.

What I was about to say stuck in my throat. It shouldn’t be like this. Still, this was my last pride.

As I was about to raise my head, a shadow was cast in front of my eyes.

“What about you for the time being?”

Snug.

As he approached, Roxtrin reached over and wiped his damp hair with a handkerchief.

“Street.”

This is the hair that was soaked in the car earlier. I was going to air dry it, but the water was still dripping.

“what is this. It is not water.”

“If you stay like this.”

“This is still warm, but did someone pour tea on you? Kids these days have no fear.”

“I can’t… … .”

The words I wanted to say didn’t come out.

What will be left after I put everything down like that? After taking this hand off.

-nothing.

There is nothing left.

I took everything for granted, but in reality, I didn’t have anything of my own.

“therefore. who was wrong? For now, I know you didn’t do anything wrong.”

“No, De… … .”

Tok. Tok.

I thought I was crying earlier, but it seems I wasn’t. Excuse me, this was real.

Sadly, it poured out profusely. I didn’t even know I could cry like this.

“… … yes.”

It wasn’t that Yeongji’s situation had become difficult.

It wasn’t even because he succumbed to the jealousy of immature children.

“It’s my fault, it’s not.”

I used to get caught in trouble.

I heard gossip about things I didn’t even do.

I got slapped on the cheek for the first time in my life.

On the contrary, when hot tea was splashed on his head, he became surprisingly cold.

Rockstrin carefully wiped the remaining moisture from her hair. Tidy up messy hair.

Honestly, I hated it.

“Sorry.”

“No, no.”

You’ve been talking on your own

“It was my fault.”

“Not like that.”

rocktrin.

you are bad

Even if you didn’t say it out of your mouth, it was obvious. When I came to my senses, I couldn’t pick it up.

Rocktrin certainly understood.

Even so, he silently moves his handkerchief. The hand that was stroking her hair covered her eyes before she knew it.

“I am duller than I look. Not as delicate as others. I don’t know if you don’t tell me So I make mistakes often. Everyone knows it’s not a mistake.”

A gentle hand motion lowered the bangs that were tucked behind her ears. Rather than messing it up, it was just covering the unsightly swollen face.

“I’m not pretending not to know. because i know If you know, you must take responsibility.”

Rockstrin took the letter Hera was holding in her hand. Turning over the contents inside, he began to scribble with a pen he had pulled out from somewhere.

[Dear father.

I know you are busy with what has happened recently, but could you lend me a little help?]

“What, do you… … .”

The powerful handwriting contained a clear will even when viewed backwards.

[This is the first friend I made, but I made a big mistake. If you have any troops left, please send me close support.]

Yuxilla has already suffered an irreversible blow, but if the fact is revealed, a more catastrophic disaster will come.

Right now, even if they deal with it by cutting off their own flesh, they need to let them know that they are healthy. If you don’t do that, it’s certain that all kinds of wild beasts will come and bite your neck.

That is the central nobility.

With just a few words from Hira, Rockstrin saw through all of the circumstances.

[Sender: Lockstrin Aindarok]

[Recipient: Coltman Aindarroch, Tarum, Northern Aindarroch]

And without hesitation, he puts the sealed letter into the mailbox in the corner of the garden.

“Tell me if you need anything more. I will try as long as I can.”

The wind blew.

Suddenly, the strength in his legs gave way, and his head, which had moved arbitrarily, tilted forward. Still, he didn’t want to see his face.

“Will you stay like this for a while?”

“I can’t reflect on things that are good for me.”

“Huh.”

Taking one big breath in.

With her head buried in someone’s chest, neither her parents nor other family members, Hira cried out loud for the first time.

The thing that can be grasped with these two hands is the first thing he made.

Say ‘friend’.

I didn’t doubt it.
