I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy - Chapter 16
Nia created a whirlpool in the calm lake and retreated. It was only after seeing his back running away that Ruid regretted it.
‘I should have just given you one.’
Richard, the alchemy professor, had asked, ‘Won’t you protect the flower?’, so he was trying to stop her from falling asleep.
I should have just given you one more thing. Then there won’t be any trouble.
‘Surely they won’t keep coming?’
“Luid, who is that kid from just now?”
“Nia Ryan. “He’s in the same grade as us.”
Ruid answered briefly and lay down in his reserved seat again. Hersy sat next to her as always.
“…Surprisingly, Ruid knows the students at the Ministry of Magic well.”
“He just said what he wanted.”
“Are you going to sleep?”
“No, I’m awake.”
Hercy’s expression brightened.
It’s rare to be awake at this hour.
Usually, I would watch him sleep in a daze until he woke up for an hour or two.
Of course, that’s not a bad thing, but I was glad to be able to talk right away.
“Anyway, it’s a big deal that the son of Count Ryan is entering the Ministry of Magic.”
The Count Ryan family were guardian knights who stayed by the emperor’s side for generations. Starting with the family symbol, it is the ‘heart that protects the imperial family.’
“I’m in Winjeon too?”
“What can I say about Windsor… we can’t just say that they are a knightly family.”
“why? “Except for the magic manager, there are only knights in our house.”
“Hmm. From an outside perspective, the Duke of Windsor feels like an exam paper for Ruid. For example…”
The Duke of Windsor is located at the top of the North. This is because the first Duke of Windsor settled in a land with a very harsh environment in order to live a life away from politics.
The weather was cold, and above all, it was an area where powerful monsters often appeared. The empire, which was constantly troubled by the hordes of monsters that appeared from the north, was very pleased with the Windsor family’s choice.
The first Duke of Windsor’s choice was wise. The Duke of Windsor, who was worthy of the emperor’s authority, not only abdicated, but also dealt with the troublesome monsters of the North alone, so it couldn’t have been prettier than this.
So, among all the emperors in history, there was not a single person who disliked Windsor. This may be because the sharp blade of the Windsor family was always aimed at the northern monsters, and was never aimed at the Islands.
Of course, it is difficult to listen to the emperor’s words well. In fact, he was also a loyal subject who helped the empire without any hesitation when it was in crisis.
So, past emperors felt confident just because there was someone they could trust.
Every year, as the new year dawns, people come with a huge amount of wealth and say, ‘You had a hard time today. I can say without a doubt that the future of the empire is bright because of the Duke of Windsor.’ That was the reason why he enclosed a letter saying,
In particular, the current emperor was famous for occasionally stopping by Windsor House to go hunting to relieve stress from various duties.
Rumors began to circulate in the system, starting with ‘The Duke of Windsor is said to be an inseparable friend of His Majesty the Emperor’ and ‘The children of the House of Windsor follow the Emperor and call him uncle, and the Emperor is said to be very fond of his children.’
Therefore, the nobles had a strong feeling that the House of Windsor was ‘out of the norm’.
Hersi explained calmly and then asked carefully.
“So, I have a question: Do you really call your Majesty your uncle?”
“…no.”
In fact, I call him brother. I had met him face-to-face once before entering the academy, and he was very disappointed when I called him “Your Majesty.”
I heard that when Ruid was a child who didn’t know anything, when he was the crown prince, he saw the emperor and followed him around, calling him ‘brother.’
But no matter what, I couldn’t go around bragging about calling Emperor Gao “brother.” Ruid felt stung for no reason and added a word.
“You don’t have to worry about what other people are saying, Hersi.”
“…That statement is very Windsor-like.”
Hercy laughed awkwardly.
“If you are a noble, you have to pay attention to rumors. For good reputation. Of course, this doesn’t apply to Ruid.”
‘But I…’
Hersy changed the subject because the story was going to get depressing.
“So, it is unusual that the daughter of the Ryan family has a talent for magic.”
“You didn’t seem very talented.”
Ruid vaguely recalled the sound of Nia’s breathing, which seemed very difficult.
Hercy grumbled.
“That’s the standard for Ruid. “If you can’t even breathe in Delrin’s lake, it means you have good magic skills.”
“…Boasting about yourself?”
Hercy cleared his throat.
“…I didn’t mean it that way. “I know best that my magic skills are poor.”
“Why are you so self-deprecating?”
“There is nothing more foolish than using magic to campaign in front of a dragon.”
It was a famous proverb. Ruid also responded with a proverb.
“Don’t live your life like Ryan.”
Although he was the emperor’s closest associate, Ryan’s title was count. This was because Ryan wanted to remain as a count.
Thanks to this, Ryan was able to keep his title as the Emperor’s Guardian Knight for nearly 300 years.
This is called ‘Life is like Ryan’. This means that there is nothing wiser than being satisfied with your current position.
So, when I said not to live like Ryan, I meant not to be satisfied with my current position.
“You are already a great wizard, and you will become even greater later.”
“…Me?”
Ruid stood up.
Hersi, who was broken in the original work, was a villain for nearly 500 episodes.
The main character is someone who resisted Justin, who was given a buff, for 500 episodes. At the final moment of blackening, he even briefly fights as an equal against the lazy Ruid.
“I don’t lie. “What I just said is not a trivial consolation, but the clear truth.”
It’s like that even when I’m mentally exhausted, but what about now? Although I don’t know how the butterfly effect will be applied. What was clear was that Hersy had a bright future.
Ruid was just stating the obvious, but-.
“….”
Hersi felt warm in his heart at the fact that he was recognized by the genius of the century and no one else.
‘My chest feels strange.’
Hercy’s face turned red. She spoke hastily, trying to shake off this strange feeling.
“right. Look at my mind. Have you ever seen Daejabo?”
“Daejabo?”
“As expected, I didn’t ask for Luid’s understanding in advance.”
Hercy frowned. Even though the professor was higher than the students, he did not do this without saying anything.
“Three days later, an announcement was posted that Amelia and Ruid would spar. … It was said that attendance was voluntary, but rumors were already rife. “They must have been aiming for it.”
It is a clash between genius and swordsman. You may be curious, but other students will be even more curious.
The problem was that there was only one winner. … Honestly, Hercy couldn’t imagine that Roid would lose.
We may not know, but the loser will be the subject of conversation among the Imperial Academy students for some time.
“I see.”
On the other hand, Ruid didn’t think much of it.
Because this was a predetermined future. In other words, I was worried about Hercy.
‘Maybe they should have added to the covenant not to touch Hersy.’
After Luid and Amelia’s demonstration sparring, Justin points out Hersy during the practice.
That was the spark that started a full-scale confrontation. From this point on, Hercy becomes more and more broken and becomes a villain in the truest sense of the word.
Hersi, who later completely turned black, asked Justin why he singled out Hersi, and Justin said, ‘Because you were the strongest.’
‘Really funny guy. ‘I just didn’t like Hercy.’
Even considering the rule that one cannot point out an opponent with whom one has sparred, this was an obvious contradiction. Although Hersi was at the top of his grade, he was not the strongest.
It was clear that he had chosen it because he was having some trouble with Hersi.
‘I probably wouldn’t choose Hercy now, but…’
Hercy and Justin had no conflict. What happened with the feather thief? Since you asked, I’m sure.
Still, Hersy was uneasy.
“Hercy. What would you do if you fought a commoner who had no power? For example, the feather thief is challenging you to a duel.”
“…Suddenly?”
Hersi touched his lips and thought seriously about the unexpected question.
“Well, we’ll have to wait until the situation comes… but I think we’ll match that level. For example, not using magic.”
‘So, Jiji.’
Ruid sighed. I think I need to break my conceited habit.
“That’s wrong, Hersy.”
“…is that so?”
Considering Hersi’s personality, ‘Then you can lose because you’re overconfident’ will never work.
Ruid gave an appropriate reason.
“Just because you are strong, you should not ignore the weak. Win with all your sincerity and do your best. “That is the minimum courtesy to the other person.”
Ruid said that with clear eyes. Hercy looked as if she were fascinated.
“answer.”
“Oh, yes, yes. “It won’t happen, but if something like that happens, I will fight by any means necessary.”
“…Choose the means and methods.”
“four.”
The problem was that Hersy listened too carefully.
“Hey…”
Hercy asked cautiously.
“are you okay?”
“what?”
“…Even if I fight with Amelia. People think Amelia will win. I don’t think so. So, what do you mean?”
Hercy hesitated. I thought it would be rude to say the next thing.
Ruid chuckled.
“don’t worry.”
Because I felt like I knew roughly what Hersi was imagining.
But Hersy’s worries were completely meaningless.
“My older sister, she’s really strong.”
But Ruid had overlooked it.
How much affection does Amelia have for herself?
**
Amelia Windsor was a knight.
Drivers always respect others and have an attitude of listening to their stories. Behave politely and maintain your dignity.
It is extremely rare for her to get angry like that. No matter what happens, listen calmly to the other person’s situation and take their situation into consideration.
Amelia was rarely angry right now.
“Are you telling me to aim the sword that was meant to protect my younger brother at my younger brother?”
In the president’s office, Amelia put down the notice on the table as if she were going to destroy it.
“That never happens.”
“Well… it’s just a simple sparring. “How could it not?”
Phenicia spoke carefully. In fact, she was also embarrassed about the same thing. Because it was the president’s arbitrary decision. Amelia said loudly.
“I refuse!”
“Well, hey-”
Amelia stormed out as if she had nothing more to say.
Tell Ruid to swing the sword?
Where can I attack that little kid?
Amelia couldn’t forgive.
“…Now we’ve become a little closer.”
luid christopher.
My one and only precious younger brother in the world who is 6 years older than me.
However, their relationship was not that good to begin with.
When Ruid was first born, I was very happy because he was so cute and walked and talked so little.
When Ruid was very young, he followed suit well.
But maybe he was too ambitious, and at some point, Ruid started to feel annoyed with himself.
Amelia also had pride, but she didn’t like it when her sister, who was six years younger than her, was annoying her,
so naturally their relationship grew distant. Discriminatory treatment by family members also played a role.
For example, they give the delicious food first to Ruid.
…When I think about it now, it seems extremely narrow-minded, but it was very important at that young age.
It was only in the past year that our relationship got better.
Amelia returns home during the vacation season after her first year of school.
Originally, they didn’t even say hello, but when Ruid saw him, he seemed to be very friendly. Moreover, he even begged me to play.
Amelia was taken with one blow. In the first place, Amelia didn’t approach him first because of her pride; she wanted to get along well with Luid.
Ruid had the courage to come to me first, and there was no reason to turn him away.
I had a great time playing with Ruid throughout the vacation. And when the vacation was over, we went up to the island together. You don’t know how happy I was about that long distance, which was boring.
Now, to Amelia, Ruid was not just a blood younger brother, but a more precious person than anything else.
…But you want to fight?
“…Do you really want to see the power of the Windsor family?”
Amelia glanced at the president’s office she had just come out of with bloodshot eyes.
