Academy’s Second Seat

“I will finish the exam.”

The midterm exam ended with the professor’s words.

I smiled bitterly.

“It’s amazing… … .”

I exclaimed in admiration.

I didn’t do any force control on this test.

The previous tests were all tests, but this time there was a joint practice, so I thought there was no reason to adjust the force.

Since Li took first place, he had to pass this test properly to maintain the second seat.

Well, Evan knows how to get a perfect score.

First of all, Evan had to take care of Evan, there was no time to worry about Evan.

And by doing my best, it seemed that I had pulled out an all-time high score.

“Still, this test was easy.”

If last semester’s final exam was the most difficult, this exam felt easier than usual.

In fact, I knew roughly by looking at the genealogy that this test would come easily.

Because there was a joint practice, there is not enough time for all students to study for the exam.

That is why the professors made the exam easier than usual.

I smiled and walked to the dorm.

“Shall we take a break after a long time… … .”

As I did well on the exam, I felt like I wanted to play a little today.

After a long time out of town… … Eat something delicious… … .

As I was thinking about it, I saw Astina’s back in the distance.

“Oh, Astina-senpai.”

I walked forward to say hello to Astina.

That was then.

Astina suddenly staggered and lost her focus.

“Oh, Astina-senpai?”

Astina was collapsing with her head toward the floor.

“This sh*t… … .”

I gathered mana at my feet and ran away.

-bang!

As I hit the floor, the place where I was standing was hollowed out, and I quickly flew forward and ran towards Astina.

“Ugh!!!”

I put my hand on Astina’s head, which was facing the floor.

please… … !

dump.

Astina collapsed, and fortunately my hand caught between them before her head hit the floor.

“ha… … .”

The body part fell as it was, but succeeded in protecting Astina’s head.

However, it was too early to be reassured like this.

“Sir Astina. Astina-senpai!”

I got up right away.

And astina’s condition was grasped and called out by her name.

Blood was coming out of Astina’s nose, and she was unconscious with her eyes closed.

@

“eww… … .”

Astina grabbed her head and opened her eyes.

“Head… … .”

What happened… … .

Astina thought, frowned.

I was walking to the dormitory thinking that I should get some rest.

Then, suddenly, my head was spinning and I lost my mind.

At that moment, a voice came from the side.

“Are you okay?”

Astina turned her head to see a familiar face.

“Is it Rudy Astria… … .”

It was Rudy.

Astina lay down and looked at Rudy.

“how… … did it happen?”

Rudy looked at Astina and opened her mouth.

“I found you falling while walking.”

“ah… … Did you fall… … .”

Astina sighed.

I’ve been feeling very tired these days, but I didn’t expect this to happen.

“How long has it been since you fell?”

“It’s only been an hour or two. Get some more rest.”

“okay… … ?”

Astina let out a sigh of relief.

And I tried to get up.

Rudy opened her eyes wide and tried to stop her.

“Don’t get up. You must rest.”

However, Astina did not listen to those words and tried to get up from her seat.

“I will go to my room and rest.”

As Astina tried to get herself up, Rudy held her index finger and pressed Astina’s forehead.

Astina was pressed down and lay down again.

“What, what, what are you doing?”

Astina panicked and asked Rudy.

“If you go back to your room, you will rest for today and work again from tomorrow.”

Astina could not refute Rudy’s words.

“Just stay in the hospital for a week or two. I will tell the hospital.”

“What? Can not be done.”

“It’s possible.”

Rudy said with a determined face.

However, he soon relaxed his expression and smiled softly.

“Don’t worry about the student council. I will help.”

“However… … What I have to do is… … .”

“Oh, I will bring you what Astina-senpai really needs to do. But I’ll take care of the little things. I keep helping out and I know something.”

Astina looked at Rudy like that and smiled bitterly.

“Thank you, Rudy.”

I also felt grateful to Rudy, but other feelings arose than that.

Astina looked at Rudy and opened her mouth quietly.

“I told you not to be afraid of responsibility, and this is what happened… … .”

Astina advised Rudy about responsibility, but she couldn’t even take care of herself.

It was just shameful.

Rudy looked at Astina like that and smiled softly.

“I respect Astina-senpai.”

“uh?”

Astina made a bewildered face at Rudy’s words.

“I’m running away because I’m afraid of responsibility, but Astina-senpai didn’t take any responsibility seriously.”

“Then what do you do… … . I fell because I couldn’t take care of myself.”

“Isn’t that a testament to your sincerity?”

Astina smiled a little relaxed at Rudy’s words.

Something warmed my heart.

There are people who see and appreciate your efforts.

A happy heart came up.

Astina never ran away from any situation.

However, that meant that he was not flexible enough to deal with trivial matters.

Astina has always been a head-to-head match.

I thought this was right, and I lived by this belief.

But because of that belief, what happened today.

I also felt that laziness was necessary to some extent.

On the contrary, thinking about the damage caused by falling like this, it felt like his beliefs were being denied.

However, Rudy said that he respected himself like that.

I wrapped my broken heart with a bandage.

It was the words Astina needed, the words she wanted to hear, and the warm words.

“Didn’t anyone stop until it fell more than that?”

“What hasn’t everyone dried up? I was stubborn.”

“… … .”

Many people were worried about Astina, but Astina insisted on her own convictions.

“Now listen to the people around you. Everyone said that because they were worried about Astina-senpai.”

Astina smiled at Rudy’s words.

“Yes, Rudy. If you think I’m running too much, you stop.”

Astina had something to add after that.

However, the words were swallowed for a moment.

I didn’t mean to say it at a time like now.

Rudy got up and picked up the bag on the floor.

“Even if I were there, it would interfere with my rest, so I’ll just leave.”

“uh?”

And when Rudy turns around and tries to get out.

“Well?”

Rudy looked at her wrist.

Astina reached out and grabbed Rudy’s sleeve.

“Astina-senpai?”

“ah… … .”

Astina herself was surprised by the action.

When Rudy suddenly said that she was leaving, her body moved first.

Astina looked at Rudy with a puzzled face.

“that… … .”

And he carefully opened his mouth.

“Can you stay a little longer?”

Rudy had a bewildered expression on her face.

“Hey, do you want to have a conversation? I haven’t been able to have a proper conversation these days, have I just looked at the documents? So… … .”

Rudy smiled at Astina’s words and sat down again.

“Yeah, I’ll go in a little while. Instead, it’s only an hour. After that, get some sleep.”

Astina smiled at Rudy’s warm words.

“… … Thank you.”

So while the two of them were talking… … .

There was a man with his ear on the door of the hospital room.

“Ummm…”

Rie had a strange expression on her face and was listening to Rudy and Astina’s conversation.

I came to the hospital, but the two of them were talking, so I waited outside for a while.

However, I was just overhearing the conversation.

“Ugh…”

And the more he listened to the conversation, the more his expression became distorted.

It was Li who was learning what was called jealousy.

@

Fred’s house.

“haha… … .”

There was a man sitting in the office and smiling.

heavy body.

His face was oily and shiny.

It wasn’t a good looking luster.

“Very good… … .”

The man was the father of Anton, the head of the Fred family.

He was sitting in a chair and reading a letter.

The chair he was sitting in wasn’t small, but it felt very small when he was sitting there.

If Anton looked like a little pig, then Fred Gage was a huge pig.

“It’s the Railer family… … .”

Fred Gaju sent someone to the Railer estate as soon as the butler returned after hearing Anton’s message.

Of course, without telling the Railer family, he infiltrated the estate pretending to be a traveler.

and information found.

Levin had been to the Railer family.

When I showed the portraits of Levian to the residents, there were people who recognized them.

“Did you hide in such a country estate? … .”

The Railer family is a very small estate in the corner of the Empire.

Fred Gajou was the first family I had ever heard of.

It was a place that had nothing to do with Levian, so I didn’t think he would have gone to such a place.

Also, when I asked the locals, I heard that Levian had died before.

Gaju remembered Anton’s words.

The story of a woman from the Railer family holding a mysterious magic book.

It was also a spell book that looked similar to Levin’s spell book.

It was not a story to be heard in vain.

“I must make a plan.”

Fred Gage smiled slyly and waved the little bell.

Then a maid came into the office where the headmaster was.

“Did you call?”

“okay.”

Fred Gazoo took a letter in his hand.

“Send this to Oliver… … .”

And I heard another letter.

“Send this to the Astrian family.”

Above the letter was the name of Rudy’s older brother Ian.
