I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy Chapter 27

Clifford sat in his office and read the magic newspaper with his monocle on.

[The great achievements of genius wizard Luid Christopher Windsor]

Luid’s accomplishments were written in large letters.

The subtitle was ‘Presentation of a new paradigm’.

“Hehe, that’s a grand title.”

“The president himself requested it, so what do you mean?”

Phenicia said as she put down the tea.

Clifford raised his glasses and looked at Phenicia with sharp eyes.

“I just gave you an idea, just an idea.”

“…The academy president’s recommendation is coercion.”

“Tsk tsk, is it possible for reporters to submit to power?”

As I said, I had already read the newspaper four times over.

There were all kinds of praise written on it, such as ‘Establishment of a new theory of magic.’

But there was no substance. There is no detailed mention of how magic was developed.

It was because of Ruid’s opposition. Ruid was reluctant to make an official announcement to the academic world.

As the president of the Academy, it was a good thing that the value of the video increased… but

as a wizard, it was a waste.

“What do you think about the next president?”

“Prince Luid’s magic?”

“okay.”

“…I think it is a tremendous achievement. “Because I made magic that was almost obsolete and no one was using it useful.”

Phenicia nodded obediently and continued.

“The long casting time is definitely a disadvantage, but it seems to have the strongest destructive power among the 5th tier magic. The range is a bit disappointing, but…”

“Stupid bitch!”

“Aaaah! “Why are you yelling?”

Clifford tightened his eyes.

“Do you think this magic is only worth that much?”

“…Great Archmage Clifford, please speak then.”

“The true meaning of this magic is not destruction.”

Clifford put down the newspaper and spoke passionately.

“Until now, there was no exact definition of the level of a wizard. “There is a hierarchy, but from the 5th level onwards, the gap is too large to be subdivided.”

It takes much longer to achieve levels 5 to 6 than to achieve levels 1 to 5.

“Think about it. “Am I the best, are you the best? How many idiots have died in vain in magic battles?”

As a result, even if they are in the same 5th place, there are people who think, ‘I’m much better than you because I’ve done it for 5 years more,’ and ‘If it only took 5 years, I’d have reached 6th place.’ There is the same wizard.

What if the two meet?
It’s a magic battle. And the wizard’s pride is very strong. There were many cases where people died in vain while fighting a duel without giving back.

“Look at this magic! Magic power, mana control, magic techniques, concentration, composure! “It’s a magic that contains everything a wizard needs!”

“No way…”

Phenicia’s eyes widened at a fact she had never even thought of.

“Mr. Chancellor, are you saying that this magic can be used to divide the ranks of wizards?”

“Of course! Do you think there are only 5 levels? “It’s easy to get to the 11th rank, no, even the 13th rank!”

Clifford was a wizard who could use up to the 11th rank. Once you reach the 10th rank, you are called an archmage.

The 13th rank was a magic that only the great archmage, Delrin, could use. To this day, there has been no wizard who can use the magic ranked 13th.

“The most frustrating thing for wizards is not knowing what level they are at. “It’s like how much is fulfilled until you move on to the next level… But if you use this, you can figure out what your level is.”

Am I doing well now?
Was it better than yesterday?
Could it be that we have actually regressed?

If you’re a wizard, you’re bound to have thoughts like the above at least once.

Phenicia said, a little embarrassed.

“From what I heard… I see.”

“So this is a revolution. revolution. But… it’s a shame they’re not making it public.”

Clifford seemed to think about something for a moment, then looked at Phenicia and spoke.

“What happened to the crystal ball? “There are five in total, right?”

Phenicia nodded. I went somewhere for a while and came back with a crystal ball in my arms.

“How many parts should we split?”

Phenicia placed a total of five crystal balls on the table.

Normally, taking a crystal ball with a crystal ball and duplicating it is called splitting, but the image quality deteriorated with each take, so the limit was 10 per shot.

“Division? Stupid, stupid. “Why are you dividing it?”

“…I won’t do it then? “There are so many people in need.”

“There are a lot of people in need, so the number should be small.”

“…yes?”

Phenicia couldn’t understand.

“We will only solve one issue per year.”

Clifford opened the newspaper again.

“why…?”

Phenicia couldn’t understand.

“Many people need it, so shouldn’t we divide it into as many segments as possible even if the quality is not good?”

“What do you think is more valuable, having 5 or 500?”

“Ha, but this briefing session by Prince Ruid is worth even 500.”

“Hmph, the price of an item is not necessarily determined solely by its value.”

Clifford closed the newspaper and cast a preservation spell.

“How much do you think it will cost? This crystal ball.”

“…Wouldn’t it be worth 1 million gold?”

“At least 10 million gold.”

Clifford grinned and raised the corners of his mouth.

“yes yes?”

My eyes widened at the price, which was 10 times higher.

50 million gold was the operating cost of the academy for one year.

“I assure you. At this auction house, it will be sold for over 10 million gold. And next year, when I sell the crystal ball, I will be able to sell it for a higher price than that.”

Clifford’s eyes were filled with confidence.

**

Ruid was lying down on the grass as a bed at Delrin’s lake and looking at the sky.

‘I have to go get the beads, but it’s a hassle.’

The briefing session ended successfully.
Well… there was a minor dispute.
It was a story that had nothing to do with me.

All that remains is to safely receive and destroy Lark’s orb.
Once that was resolved, there would be no problem for at least a year.

“Hwaam.”

Ruid stretched out and yawned.

Hersi was also lying next to her.

“It’s peaceful.”

“right.”

My hair was flying in the shattering wind.
Hersi took out the notebook from her pocket and flipped through it.
When I see the meticulously written notes, I feel relieved.
Ruid took a quick look and asked.

“Why did you write so much?”

“I wrote down everything Ruid said.”

“…That much?”

“If there’s a theory I don’t know, I have a habit of pointing it out.”

Hersy seemed to be immersed in the contents of his notes as he spoke. Ruid glanced at her and said.

“You’re trying, Hersi.”

Ruid recalled Hersy, who was diligently looking at the board and taking notes amidst all this crap.

…Hercy was definitely not normal. There is a certain feeling of My Way.

“Sure! Minerva is a family that requires effort.”

Hercy said with a bit of pride.

“So, I will definitely protect the chief.”

Ruid suddenly became curious and asked.

“Why do you want to be the top student so much?”

“…and the succession structure. It’s breathtaking. “You can’t do anything that might get you caught.”

Now that I think about it, I remembered that in the original, Justin’s defeat of Hercy was described as being like a fight between ‘David and Goliath’.

They say it was a miracle that Justin, a commoner, destroyed the heir of a prestigious family…

Ruid’s eyes deepened for a moment.

‘You’re not Goliath, you just tried to look like one.’

She was just a girl who worked hard to maintain her position.

“Come to think of it… there’s no such thing as a successor fight at Windsor, right?”

“Sometimes Hersy seems to know Windsor better than I do.”

“Is that possible? Well… I’ve been interested in it for a long time, so I looked into it.”

Hercy turned her face slightly and played with her bangs.

“doesn’t exist. “Something like a fight for successor.”

“…IM jealous. The people of Minerva can’t eat each other, so they don’t eat each other. “I understand that you and Amelia are close.”

The battle for noble succession is as fierce as that of the imperial family.

Usually, nobles give birth to four to five children, and according to imperial law, succession is not necessarily determined by the eldest son, but the succession is determined by the judgment of the head of the family.

Some say that the reason the empire was able to develop this far was because it favored meritocracy –

but thanks to this, the nobles here lead very bloody lives.

‘I’m glad I was born in Windsor.’

Ruid felt it again.

“By the way, Ruid had one more brother besides Amelia, right?”

“huh.”

Hercy looked curious.

“As far as I know, he is the successor… He must be a very capable person to surpass Amelia.”

Amelia was also here in the name of a successor exam, but it was more of a self-proving and coming-of-age ceremony.

Windsor’s successor had already been decided.

For a moment, Ruid thought of his older sister, Irene Windsor.

I broke into a cold sweat just thinking about it.

“He is a talented person.”

“Tell me more! I wonder. Are you stronger than Amelia?”

Lloyd couldn’t say for sure.

This is because Irene Windsor’s swordsmanship was one-hit kill.

If Amelia blocks that one sum, she wins. Of course, I wonder if that’s possible, but-

“Well… I haven’t seen Ame do it sincerely. I haven’t seen my older sister swing a sword more than once. “Ame noona always loses to one sum.”

“yes?!”

Hercy’s eyes widened.

“That strong?”

“Because I’m not the successor for nothing.”

“Wow, as expected, Windsor is amazing. … What’s your personality like? A classy style like Amelia?”

‘dignity?’

Ruid narrowed his eyes.

It was a story that couldn’t even be joked about.

“You idiot.”

“…yes?”

“That’s a bitch too.”

Hercy was embarrassed. This is my first time seeing Ruid say such harsh words.

“Are you a idiot…?”

“It’s more than you can imagine.”

Ruid shook his head.

The most dangerous thing in the North was not the powerful monsters or the freezing cold.

It was his older sister, Irene Windsor.

It’s not like they were harassing me or anything –

but it was closer to a natural disaster.

“…!”

At that time, I felt something powerful about Ruid.

He quickly stood up, took out a wand from his pocket, and spoke.

“Aegis.”

It was the most powerful barrier spell he knew.

“Luid…?”

A huge four-layer protective shield appeared in front of Ruid’s staff.

And that moment.

Kagagagak—!

The blonde woman flew down and hit at almost the speed of light.

The barrier and the sword she held collided and sparks flew.

Ruid bit his lip and strengthened his magical power.

Hercy just sat down.

Ruid was slowly pushed back through the barrier.

Thud, thud-

Ruid’s barrier was broken layer by layer.

The sword was getting closer and closer to between my eyes.

Okay!

One last piece.

Even if this breaks, you will be safe because of the internal barrier, but if you do this, Hersy will get hurt.

Ruid gritted his teeth and shouted.

“Big sister…!”

At the sound of Ruid’s suppressed voice, the stranger suddenly appeared and withdrew his sword.

Ruid glared at the assailant.

The gunman raised the corners of his mouth and smiled softly.

His smile was so peaceful that it was hard to believe he had just been attacked.

However, the eyes were not smiling at all.

There was only one woman in the world who smiled that scary.

Heir to the Windsor family and Louis’ first older sister.

Irene Windsor.

She spoke in a gentle voice.

“Your reaction time was a little slow, Louis.”
