Avoid Former Co-Workers

24 – 24. Short winter vacation (2)

It’s such a strange thing.

“My, I was wrong. I won’t appear in front of you from now on!”

“Neither… I will never harm you!”

“I’m not guilty of anything… It’s the first time I’ve seen it, so I’ll just go on my way. Hey, apologize quickly too!!”

“Ugh… I… Was wrong…”

Why are they doing this today?

While I was thinking about looking at the bulletin board, didn’t these four suddenly come and confess?

I think this would be even weirder if the sun rises in the west.

“Look, did you see…? We all bowed our heads and apologized…?”

At first glance, it doesn’t look sane.

Who threatened to destroy the three generations if they didn’t kneel in front of me and apologize?

When such a sudden thing happens, the vigilance you were trying to raise doesn’t stand up properly. I’m not even dumbfounded.

“Hey… Junon… Say something…! If we go on like this…”

“You idiot!”

“…It’s okay, just go.”

It seems certain that something is bothering me, but right now I just lose my concentration.

“Did we really apologize? We apologized straight away and you looked over?”

“Aren’t you going soon?”

“Go, I’m going!!”

In complete confusion, the four of them stood up and all of them moved quickly and disappeared.

I don’t think he’s holding onto a real lifeline.

“Over there.”

Even when my eyes are on other places, there are times when my sleeves are gently squeezed by someone.

“…And why?”

“I want to ask you something I don’t know…”

Sylvia has quietly approached her since sometime, like right after her final evaluation, and she talks about business like that while holding onto her sleeves.

Did you ask how to do the laundry the other day? It seems to be studying this time.

I want to help Sylvia, but unfortunately I have a set schedule today.

“I’ll teach you next week. Not this week.”

“It’s winter vacation…?”

I think I can understand it even if I don’t talk until the end. They are asking if there is anything to do during winter break, when most faculty and students have left.

“I have to go see the professor.”

“I see…”

“Anyway, not this week, I’ll teach you next week.”

“Yeah… Ok.”

I didn’t have to rest because it was winter break, I had to move faster because it was winter break.

As soon as the second year ends and the third year begins, the number of things to do increases rapidly.

My magical power is said to disappear someday, but only once. At that time, the situation to write and move on comes.

The place where my steps landed was the building of the faculty.

‘Why are you so nervous?’

It’s not the first time I’m meeting you, but the reason I’m nervous is because the other person is the other person.

[ Meuniher Gelwarten Emerald ]

It is difficult to open the door willingly because the teaching method is so tight and arduous that it is full of memories of suffering.

However, rather than intense training, I had to knock on the door because now was the time when I needed clear indications and advice.

I don’t know if guys like Rhenias always show up and solve everything like at the victory banquet, but that’s not possible.

If you act passively in the first place, the range of action later becomes too restrictive.

“This is Junon from Class 2 E.”

“Come in.”

“Excuse me.”

It is expected that he will be acting vice principal at this time, but in reality he is a person who is no different from a vice principal.

It’s time to touch on the students’ learning system or policy, but first of all, I am also a student.

Students have the right to request an interview with the professor. I was going to dig into that and make a request to Professor Meuniher.

“What’s going on?”

When I went in, it seemed that Professor Meuniher was enjoying his leisure time with a cup of black tea.

…In this case, you shouldn’t touch it, but you can’t help it.

“Lectures are not held during vacations, so I would like to ask a professor on campus for guidance.”

I had to avoid situations where I had to depend on others, like at the banquet hall.

Shouldn’t I save at least one part of my body?

***

– Smart.

‘Again.’

Someone else comes in during the free time.

The number of students visiting has increased recently.

Just yesterday, there was a sophomore who was in the process of being expelled, as if he had expected that his grades at the end of the semester would not be good.

I lamented that appeasing the students is a job, and holding them back so they don’t get frustrated is something I won’t be able to do even if I go back to my youth.

‘That kind of weak guy must have come again.’

Professor Meuniher, physically and mentally tired from being interrupted during his break, opened the door with a grim expression.

And immediately, that plain expression disappeared.

“This is Junon from Class 2 E. I’d like to request an interview.”

I asked if he was a student who wanted to drop out for some annoying reason, but this time it was different.

‘Junon? You mean the sophomore with that ridiculous score?’

Professor Meuniher remembered who the student had come to visit him. Even if it is not, there is no reason to reject it.

“Come in and sit down.”

“Excuse me.”

Even when he was young, black eyes were rare. And that black hair wasn’t rare, only one person had it so far.

As he stared at Junon’s black hair and black eyes, Professor Meuniher couldn’t help but think of his friend who passed away 20 years ago.

However, his fame does not lie. He threw away his personal feelings and restrained his emotions, and quickly returned to the main topic.

“What’s going on?”

Now, what answer should I give you?

Other students tried to drop out due to a sense of shame, helplessness, or escapist remarks.

Will it be the birth of a talented person who did not exist in Hardia as a noteworthy figure in the evaluation at the end of this semester, both in name and reality?

If that’s not the case, is it really just a fluke or fluke?

I waited for Junon’s answer with small expectations.

“Lectures are not held during vacations, so I would like to ask a professor on campus for guidance.”

Professor Meuniher’s lips slightly went up as he brought the teacup to his mouth.

‘As expected, it seems that it wasn’t my fault.’

If winter vacation is in progress, most of them are aiming for the next exam, the first semester evaluation.

But Junon doesn’t seem obsessed with grades.

Isn’t it drawing a big picture for something further behind?

This kind of guy is a genius who differentiates himself from the idiots.

“I’ll let you teach yourself. There aren’t many professors left anyway.”

In fact, the actual situation on campus is not like that. There are quite a few professors who are still residing in the school.

However, why would Professor Meuniher want to teach directly?

However, it was because there was an opportunity to read whether the grades shown in the end-of-semester evaluation were true.

If that’s true, there will be only a handful of professors who can teach Junon at this school.

“Thank you very much.”

He decided to accept the map with his head bowed without hesitation.

Recalling the experience of teaching students for the first time in a while, Professor Meuniher decided to grow a star that might be a supernova.

The destination of the two who immediately got out of the office was the training room.

Professor Meuniher, who skillfully activated the Talbrut Arc, created a desert field.

A sandy desert with few features. It was clearly meant to attack head-on.

“Let’s check our skills first. Let’s try our best.”

The name is sparring, but in fact, Junon cannot win against Professor Meuniher.

Nevertheless, mobilizing all forces means that you will watch in detail and meticulously.

‘It’s a good opportunity.’

Junon knew that Professor Meuni Herr was the one who would suggest which path he should take, so he took it all the more seriously.

‘I have to narrow the distance first.’

What you can use right away is basic taijutsu based on the body you have been training, and Anti-Cast, which causes mana panic in the opponent at close range. There are only two.

Therefore, Junon immediately jumped head-on, wary of where Professor Meuniher’s magic circle was created.

However, Professor Meuniher slightly shifted his posture to the side, and did not show any signs of using magic.

The answer is simple. The opponent is a man over 40, so there’s no way he can’t win by force.

However, unlike Junon’s thoughts, physical strength was not a trade.

Took-

“…!”

Professor Meunihere flicks Junon’s wrist, twisting the path of his fist.

The boy’s fist, aimed at the abdomen, deflected precisely to the side.

Junon manages to keep his feet on the ground in order to get out of the way and correct his lost balance.

Professor Meuniher stabs a light mass of magical energy into Junon’s abdomen in this instant.

“Kuh…!”

“Have you defended in the meantime. Great?”

If I hadn’t hastily created a magic shield on the ship to block it, this side would have grabbed the ship.

Professor Meuniher immediately drew his magic circle and fired one lightning bolt.

Wizards always prepare for a multicast. If you avoid one, another one will fly.

Ejection-type magic that flies from the front and side.

If you collide with a magical shield, the sound of breaking and scratching reverberates across the field.

Professor Meuniher’s hand, which is filled with magic, penetrates between the magic.

Unfortunately, Junon had no choice but to focus all his attention on blocking it. It was impossible to even reach him, let alone hit him effectively.

As much as the unique magic was close to the shield, it couldn’t reach anything, but the side that spread the distance rather became Junon.

“A shield made of magic. The reaction speed of the body is good, and the use of magic is also very good. Most people will fall down at this level.”

In the meantime, Professor Meuniher replies as if he has finished figuring out Junon’s magic.

Thanks to that, Junon was in a difficult situation.

‘This is no joke.’

Most ranged wizards gain an advantage by increasing their distance.

However, even if he attacks using his hands and feet, Professor Meuniher does not use a magic circle, but rather uses body techniques and magic to minimize damage, and rather slowly closes the distance and counterattacks.

I expected it, but I didn’t expect it to be this hard. I didn’t even know I was rolling on the ground in a blink of an eye.

“Now, it’s your turn to block this time? Don’t mind me. If you see a gap in the middle, come back.”

After that, Professor Meuniher began to push Junon.

From small basic elemental magic to general attribute sub-magic. Sometimes, it led to a melee, such as using a large blow.

And finally, an opportunity came to Junon as well.

“Hmm?”

Junon’s magical energy, which was injected in the reverse direction to shake the magical power, destroys Professor Meuniher’s magic circle.

‘Perfect fit.’

Professor Meuniher, who suffered dizziness from mana panic soon, will not be able to use magic.

You said you won. For a moment, Junon thought so.

“Huh. I see.”

A tone as if he knew something.

At the same time, a terrifying sensation began to run down my spine.

‘Am I missing something yet?’

It was only when the corners of Professor Meuniher’s mouth went up that he realized he hadn’t reached victory.

“Touching the magic circle and channeling mana in the opposite direction. It was a good attempt.”

Professor Meuniher grabbed his wrist as he was injecting his mana in the opposite direction.

Professor Meuniher, who predicted that dizziness would soon come and the magic would be sealed, is fine.

“Kuh?”

Professor Meuniher’s magical energy comes from the grasped wrist.

The mana flowing in like a wave suddenly cut off somewhere. The world spins round and round

The balance of the body began to collapse rapidly. From the moment something entered his wrist, he sensed something was wrong.

“I lost… I…”

Declare defeat quickly. In this state, it is impossible to even move, so how can I continue the sparring?

Kneeling on one knee, Junon could only wait, resting his forehead on his forehead until the dizziness went away.

“If you’re not familiar with magic circulation, this attack will be quite painful.”

Professor Meuniher held her wrist again and circulated the mana that had circulated through Junon’s body again.

“First of all, overall it’s great. Let me point out a few things that went wrong. Are you still dizzy?”

“You’re gone. How did you just do that?”

“Hmm. Then I guess I need some explanation. Listen carefully.”

Anti-cast is an attack method devised later by Professor Meuniher himself to deal with a specific monster.

Some students have learned from finding out that it also works in person-to-person combat.

Professor Meuniher soon grasped the principles of future tactics, and his teachings were still valid.

“Moreover, why do you rely on the body rather than magic? No, rather, I felt like avoiding it.”

I can’t say it’s a power that will be lost someday. So,

“How can you deal with monsters with unique magic that can’t even attack? Weapon proficiency hasn’t risen from 0.1% At all.”

The attack power is 0. He made an excuse that he couldn’t deal with the beast with defense alone.

It may be suitable for body protection, but I didn’t want to depend on it. What will happen after I study only this power and lose it?

I’m just an ordinary person who knows how to handle a shield. That’s why I didn’t want to polish it any more.

“That’s why you said you trained your body rather than polishing your magic. I get it roughly.”

Professor Meuniher looks at his watch and says that we should do this for today.

He added that there was not enough time for guidance because he was preparing for the next exam, and that he should come after the evaluation at the beginning of the semester because there was something he needed to find out.

From noble mtl dot com

“It’s not good to rely too much on magic, but if it’s unique magic, you can rely on it to some extent. Unique magic is the power that a person can use most efficiently.”

“Thank you for the guidance.”

“You worked hard too. Rest well.”

After a short instructional time, I took some necessary advice, so there was a good harvest.

‘Let’s not be too impatient.’

Yeah, nothing has happened yet, so you just have to think positively.

It is not okay to feel anxious for no reason.

Junon escaped the faculty building, Merak Hall, while mind-controlling like that.

And Professor Meuniher, who had been watching his back until the end, muttered to Junon.

“It’s a tactic that neutralizes the magic circle. It’s ingenious. I think it’d be better to call it Anti-Cast.”

He felt personally that Junon’s end-of-semester grades were not counted incorrectly.

“Looks like I met a real supernova.”

***

Since Senia had a schedule yesterday, we couldn’t talk very long.

Therefore, Michelle visited Dunsenia in time to meet the next day, and was able to get her information about her Junon from her.

I mentioned that I was not sure or subjective information was left out, but Michelle expressed her gratitude, saying that this amount of information was enough.

However, as the repeated explanations continued, she, like Rhenias, faced her uncomfortable truth.

-‘Junon’s unique magic is an opaque white curtain suitable for melee level avant-garde. It’s simple and has the same effect as a shield.’

-‘The first time I used it was when I met a guy named Vesta and got into a fight. At that time, I couldn’t come out either, so I called Professor Jake and he said they had already germinated? Very Vesta is all bloody.’

D and E class students who were persecuted and discriminated against by means of magic.

Junon, who rarely showed indomitable will and did not bow his head, learned his unique magic to block magic.

According to the situation, he rapidly performed his unique magic to bloom, but it was said that even this was denied.

For Michelle, who has an upright disposition, this was something she couldn’t let go of.

“You mean magic… Was used this way?”

For some reason, it seemed that a fire was kindled inside her heart, and she could hardly contain her anger.

The darkness of the academy he encountered while trying to find out about Junon was causing Michelle even more anger.

In such a yard, people around them even put in firewood to fill Michelle’s head with heat.

─You bastard, did I ask you to buy something like this?

─Ah, no…

─If you have eyes and hands, you should know how to do things right, you bastard!

After a while, the sound of a person falling out is heard.

I dare to predict with the sensitive Michelle’s magical sensitivity, it must have been an attack on the other person with magic.

The persecution of a certain floor by deceiving the eyes of those who do not know anything.

The conflict created by squeezing and breaking it under the pretext of it, and the reflective benefit created by it.

From the moment she witnessed the root of this process with her own two eyes, Michelle was slowly changing.

This time, as always, Michelle’s anger rose and created an arrow that condemned those who misused magic.

Ttogak Ttogak-

Of course, Michelle’s footsteps reached the scene, and an arrow of blue flame immediately flew to the assailant and covered her body.

Even though she cuts things down one by one, she knows that it won’t change. Because that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

While decomposing, he knows that he can only do this, so he turns around and swallows his anger as much as possible.

Someone appears to Michelle.

“Wheeyu. It’s a blue flame, isn’t it hot?”

“…Who are you?”

“Ah. My name is Goden. I’m an international student from Artena’s empire.”

Boasting a distracting size, he asks Michelle in a serious tone, completely forgetting the playfulness when introducing himself.

“Wouldn’t you like to put your own hands to stop such things from happening again?”

Then he replies as if Michelle lamented.

“If it could be changed, it would have been changed. That’s a problem because it doesn’t work.”

“It’s too negative. How about thinking about the possibility of solving it?”

“Is there a way to solve this? Even the principality can’t do anything about it. If I change just one thing, will everything change?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“…I see. You think so too.”

A moment when Michelle passes Goden’s shoulder as if saying something nonsensical.

“Well, I think there’s a chance.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Isn’t it possible that people with the same thoughts gathered together, became two, and eventually the majority united and passed the final exam without difficulty?”

Goden’s words sounded to Michel as if he wanted to gather people.

And as if that was the answer,

“I will form a party and destroy the paradoxical justice they created.”

Goden began to open the way for possibilities.

The starting point of the Thambris party. Their formation was beginning with the recruitment of Michel Granodia.
