Chapter 34-2
{Third POV}
The world's best mages were gathered in the Cerlin City, the home of magic.
In a certain place.
The Magic Council had people who had fallen so deeply into magic that they could no longer get out of it.
However, curiously, among those present, there were very few people in their 40s or older, and most of them looked to be in their 20s and 30s.
"What? Necromancer? What kind of times are upon us
They don't really die, they just keep coming.
The members of the Council heard the news from an agent of the 'Dark Demon Slayers' who appeared to be older than they were.
Tsk, then youll go in on your own.
It wasn't once or twice that Necromancers couldn't forget the old days when they ruled the world and made a fuss.
However, there was one news that would surprise even the members who didn't even pay attention to the necromancer.
The Class 8 mage, Ru Delic, asked with his eyes wide open.
"...... What? Stella's cadets defeated the Class 5 necromancer?"
"Yes. Thirteen students participated in the destruction, and no harm was done to them. Even... I can't believe it, but it is said that only one student took down the main body of the Necromancer."
No, does that even make sense? Even if he was about to die soon, a necromancer is still a necromancer. Wait, were some of those students at Class 4 or higher?
"No."
<em class="chakra-text css-0">Well, it cant be? Ru Delic couldnt believe it.
He didn't expect that, so it appeared even more strange.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">'How can students defeat necromancer?'
A properly raised necromancer could command thousands of troops. Even if he was only at the level of the Class 5, it would not be strange if the actual danger was judged to be 6 or higher.
By the way, thirteen students defeated the necromancer.
"... I can't believe it."
But, its true. In particular, among the students were Princess Hong Bi-Yeon of Adolveit.
Hae Won-ryang, the successor of the Twilight Tower. Edna, a genius mage who commands light, nature, and metal manipulation magic, and Eisel, the successor of Morph, were also included.
"Hmm. I see. I see. Then, maybe they can achieve it?
All four of them were geniuses.
Ru Delic had to omit the latter part. In this magical society, the existence of a real 'genius' had a mysterious power that made nonsensical phenomena understandable.
Then it must be one of the four who killed the necromancer.
"...... That's not it again."
"What? Then who else?
The knight hesitated for a moment to answer, then slowly parted his lips.
He was a student named Baek Yu-Seol.
Its the first time Ive heard of him.
"Yes. A very unique student with Knighthood convictions. From what I hear, Stella's principal, Eltman Eltwin, seems to be keeping an eye on him..."
Huh, true. I have lived a long time, and I rarely encounter such interesting things.
Ru Delic remembered three letters of the student's name.
Maybe, because he thought that he might meet him soon...
{Baek Yu-Seols POV}
Many people thought that the flow of time was constant, but that was an illusion. There were as many as two factors in this world that could give a variable to the speed of time.
First, Einstein's theory of relativity.
According to it, very heavy materials could affect the structure of space and cause time delay.
Second, time passed quickly on the weekends.
That was right.
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday. The weekend was gone. <em class="chakra-text css-0">'I didn't do anything on sunday...'
Still, today was a special day.
When an ordinary mage made a feat, he was invited to the Mages Association of Cerlin and was given a reward. Stella was different. If there was something that needed to be rewarded, they did it by themselves.
This was only possible because the headmaster was a Class 9 mage. One of the ten such people on the entire continent.
Thirteen students were lined up in a single line on the podium, and the entire students of academy were arranged in a well orderly nanner. If it had been all, I might not have cared too much.
In one corner, the Ministry of Magic and the Mage Tower were also present.
The mages who had been dispatched crowded the place, countless reporters took pictures, and some nobles could also be seen.
In reality, it was a burden. <em class="chakra-text css-0">Couldnt they just quietly summon us separately and give a commendation? I don't know why people of such high rank like showing off.
"Hmm"
Contrary to my thoughts, Hong Bi-Yeon seemed to be in a good mood, and the corners of her mouth were raised enough to touch her ears. Although she didnt seem to be aware of it.
She was finally going to be recognized by her mother.
She had been working hard all her life. She had been an example to the students, and she had even been awarded commendations.
"....... What are you looking at?"
As I was staring at her, Hong Bi-Yeon met my eyes and frowned. Still, she couldn't hide the smile on her lips.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">Do you enjoy it that much?
I took a closer look at the faces of the students lined up next to me.
Hong Bi-Yeon, Edna, Hae Won-ryang, Eisel.
I never got involved with the main characters and tried to do my own thing quietly.
Within a few months of admission, she ended up hooking up with everyone and even becoming the most aspiring student.
What, are you proud about what you did?
"Uh? Uh, I fought too.
Did you?
Oh my goodness. Bastards speak well.
A troller
In one corner, Ben was disdaining Kashif Derek as if he was genuinely disgusted.
Eisel wasn't very friendly to Kashif either, who was being bullied alone there.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">You dont have to be so angry.' I wonder if there was a need for that.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">By the way, Denmarks muscles are no joke.
Even in the game, Denmark was one of my favorite characters. Even though he was being bullied by Ben all the time....... Well, it was nice to see that.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">'I'd like to get to know you a little more, but
There was no chance now. But, Denmark had a good personality, so I wonder if he would accept me if I pretend to know him later.
While everyone was chatting.
Thump!
The noisy hall suddenly became quiet.
After a long wait, the true protagonist of this place had finally appeared.
Those of us who would receive commendation were not the main characters. Those reporters didn't come together to film us either. The officials at Mage Tower didn't come to see us either.
At the pinnacle of humanity. The master mage of Class 9, Eltman Eltwin.
They gathered to see his face. He was famous for not revealing his face.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">'.... Wow.
Even in the game, Eltman Eltwin appeared quite often.
Since he was one of the characters who could have been included in the main character's 'reverse harem'.
Unfortunately, it was said that he was not related to the main character in the game due to a realistic reason, such as the Youth Censorship Committee or something.
His set age was 300 years old, but silver hair made him look like a teenage handsome boy,
He always had a bright smile, but he was the world's strongest magic warrior with a destructive nickname of 'slayer'.
That was the true identity of that boy walking with a wobbly gait.
Gulp.
The sound of someone next to me gulping reached my ears.
Principal wasn't suppressing my mana, but an unknown sense of oppression tightened my heart and bladder. felt like I needed to pee.
My head went down to avoid eye contact instinctively, but I stiffly raised my head.
Eltman Eltwin said to a student who could not stand his spirit and bowed.
I didnt really care. For my plans in the future, I need to pay a fair bit of attention to him.
Oh, you guys are freshmen? Nice to meet you!
Woah!"
Principal, thats enough for the gossip, please follow the table of contents.
"Ah, I understand. You nag a little too much."
When the assistant secretary who followed Eltman quietly whispered, he complained like a boy his age who was bothered by his mother's nagging and then received the letter of commendation.
Then, I thought about it for a while.
Well, heres.
It took at least 3 hours for the preparation.
But, the event had condensed into just four letters.
While everyone was shocked, Eltman patted us on the shoulder and passed by.
Good job everyone. Youre really unique. Please keep working hard in the future.
It seemed like a greeting, but he made eye contact with the students one by one in his own way.
Most of them looked away or turned their heads
I lowered my head, but I opened my eyes and glared at Eltman.
Eventually, Eltman, who arrived in front of me, smiled for some reason.
You are still working hard. Its just as expected.
?
You are still working hard?
What do you mean?
But Eltman just passed by, and I couldn't figure out what that meant. <em class="chakra-text css-0">'Whoa, whoa...'
Anyway, as he passed by, I quietly let out a sigh of relief.
I honestly thought I was going to die of nervousness. My open eyes were so dry that they were almost full of tears.
In this way, Eltman Eltwin gave encouragement to the thirteen students, and the event ended really quickly by giving us commendations.
"Oh. Did you know that a reward is given to a student who defeats a dark mage?
Reward. There was a person who flinched especially at that word.
It was Eisel.
This was the end of the Award Ceremony!!
So, the event was really over. Students and officials rushed out, and I also hurriedly moved to avoid getting crowded by them.
And, as expected, a considerable number of Mage Tower officials rushed at me.
Did you say your name is Baek Yu-Seol? Student, have you chosen any Mage Tower to enter after graduating?
At Lima Tower
Do you have any thoughts of joining our company as a combatant?
It was to be expected. Mayuseong and Edna had gone through worse things than this.
In my mind, I wanted to get all of them. That was the famous mage tower that I had even heard of in the game.
However, I couldnt get into those places. Because I wasn't a real mage. After knowing that I was a half-mage, would they still cling to me like now?
Well. I didnt think so.
No. I refuse.
So I threw out all the offers. If there was a Mage Tower that contacted me even though he knew that I was a half-mage who couldnt really use magic, then it would mean that they really want me.
Until then, I had no intention of accepting all the love calls that were thrown out in my way.
Now, wait. Student, could you please tell me the reason?
Reason?
I didn't want to say that I was a crippled mage, so I gave another reason.
Because its trending these days.
"What...?
After all, it was a trend these days for the main character to earn a living by himself, and not through a guild or something.
