44 – Notice of punishment

+++

I was studying magic in the private room at the end of the main building that Lane had assigned to me. It was a study on how to use the Familiar, a mass of mana, more efficiently.

Make sure to read from noble mtl com

Never, absolutely, I sent my familiar for the purpose of research, not out of selfish intent to spy on you.

A red mass of magic floated up and headed for where you were.

It’s been a long time since the behavior patterns of your academy cadet have already been in my head.

Everyone knows which way you move, and usually knows what time you return to the dormitory and what time you go to bed.

I researched everything about you with the thought that I would never miss you again.

The last few days, the idiots at the Mage Tower kept calling me saying they were going to die, so I couldn’t observe you because I was trying to solve it, but now I have quite a bit of time left.

The eyesight connected to the familiar catches your figure.

And saw.

The disgusting and shady bullying done by those who will work with the title of ‘hero’.

That the target of such bullying is you, whom I know well, whom I love, whom I tried to protect with all my heart.

i saw

However, if you think about it differently, it felt like you could just dismiss it as a joke.

Hearing was not reinforced enough to connect. I couldn’t make a hasty decision based on visual information.

It’s hard to get suspicious if you step out for nothing. You will be in trouble, not me.

In the distance, I could see Lane sneaking past the situation.

Seeing her just passing by, I thought it was no big deal.

My familiar runs after the situation and chases you into the dormitory.

I saw him talking to you.

He was talking to you in a slightly shrunken state unbefitting of his size. You were the same as usual, as if nothing was wrong.

The next day came with a little doubt.

I am a professor, so I have to give lectures.

I opened the door to the lecture hall filled with meaningless people without you, and let out a sigh. Not paying attention to my attitude, someone quietly raised their hand and spread rumors that were not worth dealing with.

“Why.”

“Professor, did you hear that there is a guy with demonic blood in our academy?”

what kind of bullshit is this demon blood? In the first place, we weren’t the only ones who went to the demon realm, and the demons that permeated the continent were shunned.

It is also unknown whether humans and demons can have children with each other.

“What are you talking about?”

“The man with the bandages…they say he has demon blood mixed in.”

Speaking of a person wearing a bandage, the academy… No, there is probably only one person in the entire continent wearing such a special outfit.

so? That Ron has demon blood? You have to hit it as much as you can.

I don’t know where that rumor came from, but if I find the ringleader, I’ll have to give him some mental training.

Right, to the point where you say you want to die.

“Open the book.”

He finished the lecture by putting knowledge related to magic into the heads of the cadets.

It was a lecture made only for you, so I was not in charge of other lectures. Of course, this is for Lane’s convenience, and from next semester, I will be in charge of a few more lectures without any fuss.

In any case, I once again gathered my magic power in an isolated place to strengthen my familiar magic.

The connected vision searches the inside of the academy, looking for traces of you.

and found you

A little closer.

I was sure it was bullying.

All the cadets in that classroom… the bastards who didn’t even deserve a relationship looked at you and laughed at you.

Some were sitting in the seat behind you, throwing clumps of paper at your head.

Judging by the slight movement of her head and the fact that she put her hand through her hair and pulled out the thrown lump, she didn’t know what kind of action it was.

He knew that he wasn’t well-received in the academy because of his appearance.

But this case was different. It wasn’t like gossip. It was shady and direct bullying. It’s like harassing an irresistible weakling for fun.

You’re not someone to bother with.

You guys are not the ones to talk about it carelessly.

Devil’s blood horns. He was the one who fought harder than anyone else on the front lines.

saved me

“Dog f*ck.. really..”

He spat out curses to himself, but the anger that quickly built up did not diminish beyond the permissible capacity.

At first glance, what Lian had said passed through my head.

‘Ron lives in pain.’ Called.

I said something cheesy, but I knew how much Ron was struggling.

He would have continued to whip himself while being physically and mentally driven. To the point of seeing falsehood, to the extent of hearing hallucinations.

Are you saying that the result of all that hard work is this petty bullying?

I don’t know what actions you did, what purpose you had, why these results came back. Because reading your thoughts is harder than anything else in the world.

But even if you had any intentions, I couldn’t admit that you were being ignored like that.

Even if you have an idea, I can’t admit it.

I closed my eyes.

With closed eyes and blackened vision, the four eyes that remain in my memory are drawn.

Your eyes, like the night sky studded with starlight, have a soft light.

Scars are drawn around it.

Your broken fingernails digging through once again where they were once dug, new scars. The scarred eye area where it’s harder to find a healthy spot.

The sight of you taking off your bandages shocked me enough to overwrite my previous memories.

yes. Ron lives in pain. For a time unknown to me, Ron had been covering up his inner wounds by traumatizing himself.

I don’t know what you’re thinking. Maybe you feel repulsed by what I do.

However, to curse you and to punish the person who hurt you.

If I were to compare the two, I would raise my hand towards the latter.

If you don’t intend to tell me your true intentions, I will protect you on my own.

like you did to me

you,

forever.

Ron’s location is drawn. If I used a little more magic, I could output visual information in front of my eyes, but I haven’t fallen to that point yet.

Just knowing where you are gives your mind a lot of stability. I even had the illusion that I was with you next to you.

I don’t know when you’ll lose interest in the academy and leave, but it was different from before.

that I know where you are. That alone made me in much better shape than before.

Even more so, I feel the small pleasure that comes from being one step ahead of the people of Lian and Solar.

Check the location. We are checking your location every 10 minutes. Now I think of myself as an obsession, but neither my head nor my body commands me to stop.

I am trying to add validity to my actions. It was a shallow and easy-to-refute logic, because I didn’t know where you were until now, but since there was no one to refute in the first place, I was obsessively checking where you were.

Slowly your position shifts. From the lecture room on the second floor to the shop.

I looked at the clock and it was lunchtime. He probably wants to eat that bread from the canteen again.

Bread is a food that is not very good because it is biased in nutrients. Should I take care of it a little?

I imagined myself sharing a meal with you while hitting a little bruise.

After killing time like that, your location has moved again. This time it was the central square.

Great location. Shall I take a walk and say hello?

Inside the academy, it was a little difficult to deal with because of the position of the dean and cadet. I also didn’t like the way the conversation seemed to hit a wall.

Still, it wasn’t bad to see the face. It wasn’t bad to imagine his eyes hidden under them, though the bandages overshadowed the best features of his appearance.

I put on the gown draped over the chair and went outside. I felt a little better with the clear sky without a single cloud and the moderate sunlight that wasn’t too hot.

For some reason, it feels like something good is about to happen.

oh Let’s grab some cookies, Ron’s favorite.

Thinking so, I put the packaged cookies in my pocket and busied my feet a little. Ron might go somewhere else if it’s late for no reason.

Arrived.

And I rubbed my eyes lightly.

Because of the incredible sight.

In an unnoticed corner of the central plaza, surrounded by first-year students, you were taking the blame.

I couldn’t understand what you were thinking.

It’s always been like that, but more so today.

At the same time, disgust arose among the academy’s cadets, who were future warriors.

Grabbing a person and swearing at him while clearing the core.

At least that’s not what I was taught. It wasn’t a problem, it was something that no one should have done.

If you’re just an adventurer, you know, after graduating from the academy, they have to work with the title of ‘Hero’.

Even more, at Hidin’s academy he founded, he must take pride in his title and act appropriately.

Why do people like that do things like this? Does it mean that the target has become Ron?

instigator.

In every bullying, there is an instigator who first took action.

I need to find it.

no, i will find it

need to find

I clenched my hands tightly. But the discomfort and irritation did not go away.

Some cadets spotted me and greeted me, but I didn’t want to accept them.

The people around him felt disgusting. It started to look like a demon… no, a monster worse than a demon.

I took a deep breath to regain my composure.

Too much to lose to throw everyone here. I can’t read his thoughts, but at least the Ron I know wouldn’t want that.

Instead, I’ll have to find the instigator.

And, I must be held accountable.

Two arms…or maybe two legs.
