I Became a Face Genius at the Academy

Chapter 90

“What is this… … .”

I was overwhelmed by the pictures that filled the playground.

is this a continent?

“Your grandfather died a long time ago. Don’t act like a widower. Hehe, once upon a time.”

ten steps forward.

Every step Derek took was engraved with intricate lines and patterns.

“In this vast land, there were dozens of countries.”

Lines became borders, patterns became national flags.

“There must have been a strong country that occupied a large land mass without being ignorant, and at that time there were people who believed in God spread all over the world, so there was also a country called a sacred country, and there was a republic without a king, anyway, it was shit.”

The beams of light that were drawing the borders and national flags one by one were roughly confused in a whirling pattern. It seems you don’t know everything.

The beams of light representing borders moved as if they were dancing, and patterns that did not exist disappeared or new patterns appeared.

It was history.

“It’s about hitting and fighting each other, that’s how humans are originally.”

and one step back.

In the heart of the huge continent, a pattern has lost its light.

“At some point, non-humans began to appear.”

two steps back.

It spreads from nearby places. Patterns and borders lose their luster. Only faint traces were left on the sand.

“They were monsters that humans couldn’t handle with spears and knives. It was helpless. It was too strong, too fast, too much.”

As paint spreads in clear water, the light goes out. Derek’s backward walking speed increased.

The process of monsters devouring the continent.

In an instant, the whole continent lost its light. I knew darkness would come.

“But.”

The light that remained at the end was dangerous, as if it would go out at any moment.

The pure white light turned blue.

“Humanity has acquired magic.”

The light didn’t go out.

On the small peninsula where we first returned.

From the moment magic was obtained, mankind was able to block monsters.

“I have an interesting question, so try to answer it.”

“Yes.”

“The six countries of the continent we are talking about all speak the same language, although there are some differences. why?”

“I do not know.”

That’s because I didn’t put any language settings… … .

“Because they have the same roots.”

Derek tapped the blue light with the tip of his wand. I saw a pattern with the shape of a wolf drawn on it.

In the old knight families of Aindarok, all of them had wolves drawn on them.

It was cool.

“A long time ago, in the southern corner of the continent, a kingdom occupied this small peninsula. Can you see the name?”

Letters engraved with blue light.

I muttered as if possessed.

“… … Aindarlock.”

“okay.”

Aindarok Kingdom.

Humanity’s last light.

“This entire small peninsula was the last surviving Aindarok.”

“But the first Aindar Locke… … .”

“Uh haha, the first Aindar Roch that is being passed down right now must be in his 40s, if not better. Even relics from 800 years ago still have the name of Aindarok.”

The story that Derek had told me earlier about the original Aindarlock and the fairies was dramatized.

“A wizard who has reached the 8th star often sees a completely different world. we know That once everyone was under the same name.”

Soon the light splits from the small peninsula. Mash, Liden, Enfirian, Credia, Areas, Rongurt.

And the name of Aindarok is buried in Rongrut and disappears.

to keep the barrier.

Aindarok did not resist and forgot his old glory.

“The magic that stayed in this land does not disappear. I mean, I remember.”

“If that’s all true, what’s my intention that you’re telling me now?”

“If you had listened to the terms and conditions, Coltman would have figured it out. I guess my mouth itches. That Kanin went to the other world right before the 8th star.”

swish All lights went out.

Derek wiped away the marks in the sand with his foot, then quietly placed his cane on my shoulder.

“Aindarok should be the lowest ceiling. It’s as you say.”

I thought he was going to hit me again, but Derek’s hand holding the cane was uncharacteristically soft.

“What does it mean?”

“What you want to protect is neither Aindarok nor the Empire.”

“That’s right.”

“At the age of only sixteen.”

If that were the case, there would be no way to disclose the full text of the Imagination Theory or the design of the laser. There was no need to bring Riden into an ally.

It is clear what you want to keep.

“A crab to protect this continent, humanity. Just like Aindar Loch did.”

It’s embarrassing to say it so grandiosely, but it wasn’t completely wrong.

Surviving in a world that has completely collapsed is not a happy ending.

not surviving

I wish I could live.

That was the future I wanted.

“Don’t go to Leeden. Make a supply plan on the premise that you have secured the middle stone.”

“I will face your Majesty and bring back the Imperial Army. The full theory and blueprints will be given to you tomorrow.”

“There is no need to go there.”

“Yes… … ?”

“Save yourselves. It’s not good for them to climb too much. That means there is an order.”

Derek turned and headed for the front door. It meant I didn’t want to talk anymore.

“If it’s food, I have it too.”

“no way… … .”

“Did you see it on the wall? I want to know why I cherished so much for something like this. I can’t break a single monster’s head.”

A light shimmered in Derek’s palm.

A unique magic system created by an 8-star wizard who materializes mana without loss and possesses physical power.

“Still, the dog-like bastards will run wild. Hehehe!”

There was no shortage of food.

“It’s a retreat.”

This was already the third time he had had a private meeting with the Emperor of the Rongrute Empire, Gawill von Rongrunt.

Of course, since Ai-nim was by my side every time, it’s hard to see it as a completely private meeting, but this time I came by myself.

Furthermore, this time it was not served as a meal, so it was definitely a conference room to discuss important matters of the imperial family.

“The thing I said that I would prioritize reviewing the Lord’s proposal was related to the air raid, but nothing else.”

“So I will tell you without shame, Your Majesty. Liden must not perish.”

“Derek said that too.”

It seems that Derek has already mentioned it once. Even so, the emperor was lukewarm.

“Do you know the mood of the imperial family?”

“I know this is a difficult request.”

“It’s not even difficult. You’re telling me to force myself.”

After the situation in Mashu is settled, the Imperial Army immediately moves south.

No one raised a different opinion, so everyone knows that will be the case.

“You did well not to accompany your servants. Didn’t Aindarok’s status almost fall to the ground in an instant?”

“… … your majesty.”

poor persuasion

It was an opportunity to cut the throat of an old nemesis. Is there any reason to object to this?

For the safety of the continent? Not even sure about that? The country also refused.

‘I’d rather threaten you?’

I’m losing mine.

However, it is not good to incur the emperor’s disapproval. We will have to share the story several times in the future.

Or should I at least marry Ai-nim even if my plans go awry? Is it a decision that can be reversed?

My mind was in a complicated state.

“Then I’ll call you back for now.”

“Yes… … ?”

“Well?”

When I asked again, the emperor put on a puzzled expression.

He didn’t even make any excuses.

“Did you think Jim wouldn’t listen to you?”

“I have not yet given a reason that will satisfy Your Majesty.”

“Aren’t you particularly curious?”

The emperor smiled and continued.

“I heard what happened at the barrier. From the central nobility to the local aristocrats, the royal family of other countries, and logistics, there is no place that your hand has not reached.”

“I presumptuously did so.”

“It’s funny that the proposer of the operation is Marquis Aindarlock. Coltman is a stoner, but he’s not one to push my son to the limb. You would have suggested it.”

“Yes. You saw it correctly.”

“Then something. You’ve already saved the empire, what more do you have to convince me? I’ll be honest. Lockstrin Aindarok told me to call back.”

I’ll know then

The emperor was the emperor.

“… … indeed. Is it trust?”

“Sorry for selling your name. Make sure you use it well.”

When I mentioned the recall, Gawil just accepted it as being right and that was it.

No reason was needed.

nemesis? It didn’t matter. Riden didn’t care in the first place.

As in the beginning, Gawil’s purpose was to strengthen the empire.

“I thought about it, but I don’t want to get my daughter’s hands stained with blood.”

It’s an excellent opportunity.

Even though my performance was great, it is not the emperor’s appearance to kick away such an opportunity with a single word and decide to retreat.

‘If anyone becomes a Dark Lord foolish enough to belittle His Majesty, their unreserved behavior can be predicted.’

At most, I will listen to the words of a 16-year-old boy and decide important matters in the empire.

In order to be trusted, I will commit myself as a cancer soldier.

The emperor intended to use this crystal as bait to weed out the enemy within.

“A cunning fox would not be fooled even once. I will become a child who longs for a hero. I have no choice but to listen to whatever you say.”

“I will visit often from now on.”

“If you do, there is nothing better.”

I bowed my head and backed off.

Not only in the 8th episode, but in the future as well, I was able to move Gawil the way I intended.

I’m already excited about how to make use of this enormous advantage. It’s like I slept all day… … .

“By the way, did anything happen with your daughter on the way back from Aindarok?”

“None.”

“Hmm. Did you forget to tell me?”

“I will step back, Your Majesty.”

It wasn’t a very important story.

* * *

After leaving the imperial palace, I did not immediately return to Somerset. The place we stopped by was the most active commercial district in the islands.

I wore a hood as much as I went out on the street, and like Euril, I covered half of my face with a scarf.

Now that the weather is chilly, he only looked like someone who had taken out his winterization gear a little earlier and put it on.

A weekend in mid-November.

At this time, there is one classic event to take care of. I don’t know how long this is.

Just today, the main character comes to Jedo to buy clothes for the winter and runs into a freshman who will be entering next year.

‘Lamu Dewid.’

is one of the main characters.

There’s nothing wrong with calling it an event.

Ramyu, who was looking for winter clothes at a clothing store, found the main character wearing a uniform. It ends by telling them to look forward to entering the school next year as well.

There must be this thin and thin contact point for a connection event to occur during the first year entrance ceremony.

“What clothes are you looking for?”

“yes? just… … .”

“Don’t do that, just look around. The best quality around here.”

“No, that’s it.”

However, while wandering around the clothing store, he was caught by a clerk.

I think I’ll be able to find it soon because I have a personality that stands out, but judging from the quiet surroundings, it seems like he hasn’t come yet.

“… … Will it?”

“Come over here! Even nobles use it a lot!”

Shall we pick out some clothes to buy as gifts?

I think Ai-nim would look good with these earplugs and Hira this hat, and Frid, you should wear some socks… … .

“thank you!”

Well.

My hands are full.

It’s no lie that the quality is good, but the price is also high.

Inside the window, I see a clerk counting money with a pale face.

what is money… … . Derek will give it to you again.

“Wow, it looks so cheap, but it’s so expensive! don’t buy it! Wow!”

“What, what! After this bitch pretends to choose for an entire hour!”

“Kyahahaha!”

it’s lamu

It looks like it came out at the right time. It seems that he only harassed the clerk without money.

I turned the corner and went in search of the roaring voice. I didn’t even have to go far.

“… … oh.”

We met as soon as we turned the corner. It looks like it was coming this way.

“Wow, oppa, are you a Summer Turge student?”

“right.”

“I’m also going to school next year!”

He is such a friendly person that he often talks to people he meets for the first time.

“okay? congrats-“

“But what kind of colors… … . I don’t think it would suit one person. Are you giving presents to four people at the same time? Are you crazy? There are all these men in the world these days. What is that sock sense? damn it.”

In addition to this, he is very quick-witted and does not hesitate to say anything, so he has an excellent talent for making people angry.

Why do you only say cowardly words?

“I’m glad you know that it’s embarrassing. Cover your face… … . uh.”

Ramyu, who was trying to look inside the hood with his head out, stopped talking.

because of the charm? not really. Half of his face is covered with a scarf.

“uh… … ?”

“Why, do you have something to say?”

“Hey, are you Rox’s brother by any chance?”

You noticed it when you saw a few strands of hair sticking out. It doesn’t matter because I can’t see your face anyway.

“right-“

“Waaagh!”

I couldn’t cope because I was holding clothes in both hands. Lamu jumped up and wrapped around my neck and waist.

That’s what I mean.

“I really really really really wanted to see you!”

Hey, that’s right.

… … are you not me
