Chapter 17: Starts Moving
Chapter 17: Starts Moving
Lets think positively.
I got to know the woman better.
I was able to find my weaknesses again.
This shouldnt be a bad thing.
Yes, Im getting closer.
To true heights that no one else can reach.
.
Hah.
Why dont you join in?
shut up.
Alice and I took turns in the bath.
I washed away all sorts of things, including this fuzziness that was covering my thoughts.
Lets get back on track.
Suddenly, yesterdays scene passed through my mind.
Its about Abel.
Frankly, hes pretty insignificant.
His physical attack power is unique.
But thats it.
No matter how many times we fight, my victory is always guaranteed.
Not in a pure physical battle, but as long as magic is allowed, he isnt even worthy of being called my enemy
Kuku.
But
I like his eyes.
Such a huge gap in strength and still an unyielding heart.
Craving for strength to the end.
The eyes of the protagonist was far better than what I imagined it would be like.
This is going to be fun.
The words leaked out naturally.
Then I noticed a change in my own mind.
Up until now I have been somewhat afraid.
A thought that one day I will be defeated.
This has not gone away even now.
But now,
I just enjoy it.
All of this situation.
And Abel.
No matter how much you grow and become stronger from now on, I will be ahead of you.
After the bath we headed to the cafeteria.
Seems like we already have a guest.
I saw him yesterday in the classroom, a very glaring red-haired guy.
He continued to eat in silence, not saying a word.
Youve got a bad look in your eyes. Youre making me uncomfortable. Just go away?
ah?
I didnt care.
To be clear, I dont care what the people do.
And even though this guy has a bit of a bad eye, he was just eating in silence.
But Alice next to me seems to be different.
There was a glimpse of it from the day I first stepped into the classroom.
If she feels even a little uncomfortable, she will speak out her feelings without hesitation.
She is very aggressive towards people other than me after all.
In a way she gives off the vibe of a villainess heroine.
In the original work, wasnt she supposed to be the heroine for Luke?
Damn it.
The man with red hair raised his veins and exuded a dangerous aura as if he was about to strike at any moment.
However, to everyones surprise, he stood up with his plate and moved towards the edge of the wide table, following Alices words obediently.
Its good that he knows his place. Luke, lets eat.
Wait.
I was only slightly intrigued.
Whats your name?
Lloyd.
Lloyd, I see.
He is the fourth in the sequence after Mia who can use 3 attributes.
Despite his delinquent appearance, hes very competent.
But this only raises more questions.
Why do you follow Alices words?
Lloyds expression distorted with anger and he was gritting his teeth.
He himself doesnt follow Alices words willingly. Yet, there must be some sort of intention behind why he follows it.
A will that cannot be bent.
Luke, I dont care about that guy. Lets just eat
You keep your mouth shut.
I-Im sorry hah..hah.
I want to know Lloyds answer.
I was in the same venue as that silver-hair during the practicals for the entrance exam.
Silver hair? Who are you talking
shut up and dont make me say it again. And then what?
.
Lloyd paused.
And with a look of humiliation and anger.
I heard rough breathing coming from next to me, but ignored it.
Shes stronger. F**k more than me.
His words seemed to contain everything about him, Lloyd.
We didnt fight directly. But I understood it. I cant win right now
Kuku, I see.
You too, Blondie. I cant even beat you now Youre even worse than the silver-hair. I cant even tell how far off I was S**t.
There are a lot of really interesting guys here.
But Im not giving up. Watch me now, you b*****d Ill surpass you all!
Hahaha. Youre funny. I like you.
Interesting.
He is a stoic man to no end.
He is so obedient to those he recognizes as stronger than himself, no matter how humiliating.
Hey, good morning. Youre all early. Can I join you for breakfast?
No, just disappear.
Leonardo appeared with a fresh smile.
Within two seconds, that smile vanished like smoke.
By Alices merciless blade of words.
Can I sit here?
Do what you want
Ha, haha thank you. Ive never felt someones kindness soak into my heart like this before
.
Lloyd accepted Leonardo.
Contrary to his appearance, he seems kind.
A man full of surprises.
Good morning.
Here comes the noisy one.
I just said good morning! Im not being noisy!
Look, noisy.
Agh, you
Mia appeared.
She complained and sat down near Alice and started eating.
They seem to be fighting all the time, but they may be surprisingly close.
Prepare yourself, Alice! Within a month I will challenge you to the battle of ranks!
Anytime, Im not going to lose to you who is half-hearted in everything.
Wha, what did you just
Enough with it, kid.
[TLN- he said, Chibi, you guys know what this means right?]
So I heard a voice.
I immediately understood who this kid represented.
Who the h**l said kid just now?
Its for Mia.
And it seems that she herself was aware of this.
It was Lloyd who addressed her as a kid.
Fight me first. If you lose the ranks, you wont be able to fight for a month. So fight me first. You cant beat silver-hair anyway.
You, I believe you are Lloyd Elys Arbanot, the second son of the Arbanot family. I know who you are. I heard you are very good at magic. Have you gotten arrogant because of that? Alright, Ill do it. Ill teach you the difference in our skill.
Ha, interesting. Teach me, kid.
Its been intense since this morning.
Really, I came to an interesting academy.
I took some classes in the morning.
Most of todays classes were classroom lectures for each attribute.
There were no real-world magic battle exercises or anything like that, and of course there were no classes on my dark attribute.
But I thought it was worth taking, whether it was the other attributes.
My dark attribute can also absorb magic and exercise magic using its power.
This means that I can use magic of other attributes, albeit conditionally.
So it is worthwhile to take classes of other attributes.
I thought so, but as it turned out, it sucked.
It was a really inefficient class, taking 90 minutes to explain at length what I could have done in five minutes.
Then I dont have to take it.
Use teachers only when necessary.
And now I was in the great library that Aslan Magic Academy boasts.
This place is rightfully a treasure trove.
The knowledge of knowledge is concentrated here.
Just having access to this library is worth the price of joining this academy.
I wont be able to challenge the upperclassmen to a rank battle for a month, so Ill spend some time here exploring magic for a while.
Well, in the meantime, if theres a class that will interest me, Ill try to attend it at least once. Otherwise, lets just stay here.
But for now, I have to leave.
As Im a little interested in the afternoons Magic Pharmacy class.
Ou.
As soon as I left the library, I heard a voice.
I looked over and there he was Abel.
H-hey, its been a while since yesterday
People who are less than commoners generally dont use honorifics.
But there was no discomfort.
So I myself recognize Abel at least to that extent.
Abel, right?
Y-yeah um, youre okay with that, right, Luke?
Call it whatever you want.
He was looking very awkward and timid as he looked at my face.
Yesterdays wounds were nowhere to be found.
I thought he was supposed to have a face cave-in.
The healing magic sure is a wonder.
You cant use attribute magic, can you?
Yeah, you know it well.
What did you do in the morning?
Well, it seems that a teacher named Brad was watching our fight yesterday
Hou.
He forced me to come and train with him haha
Abel laughed tiredly.
Brad and he must have had a lot of hard training.
I see Hes blessed after all.
This guy has the ability to attract people around him.
Kuku.
You really cant be underestimated.
What did you come to this school for?
Eh.
Answer me quickly.
Ah, Uhh to get stronger, I guess.
Why do you need to be strong?
Its
Abels mood suddenly changed.
I hope nobody can take it away from me again.
Ha-hahaha!
What the h**l are those eyes!
Is that what a protagonist does!
Just now.
I saw a glimpse of Abels darkness for just a moment.
Regrettably, I have no knowledge of the original story.
I wonder what happened to make him look like this.
What if
Yes, a little bit.
A little bit of me wanted to be mean.
What would you do if I came to steal your precious things?
.
You cant win. You found that out yesterday, right? What will you do? Now, tell me. Tell me your answer
I will.
There was no need for me to ask this.
But I couldnt help but want ask.
I wanted to know Abels answer.
I will do whatever it takes
.
It was very simple.
But I sensed it.
The true meaning behind those words.
Ahahaha. Good answer.
I will not underestimate you.
This unfathomable eeriness is the essence of this guy.
Is good.
Being able to feel this eeriness up close will surely feed me.
Ahaha Im sorry for saying something weird.
Abel laughed off as if mending.
The bizarre atmosphere that existed earlier was nowhere to be found.
I just never get bored in this kind of school.
By the way, what kind of classes is this guy taking?
Is he going to take the same magical pharmacy class as me?
Well, whatever.
Ill do what I have to do.
Late at night in the Royal Capital.
A back alley with the smell of blood.
Two figures emerge from it.
The two immediately jumped and moved to the roof.
In the moonlight, the figure had almost no exposed skin at all.
Missed again.
Im already fed up. I should take more direct action.
Really, direct?
Yeah.
One was male and the other was a neutral voice.
But, you sure are scary. Youve got to be steady, you know. I like living here better than I thought I would.
Did you forget our mission?
No, I havent.
Dont worry. Ill take care of it.
Youll take care of it, you say
Attribute magic users. Their wide-range destruction ability is a threat. But theyre not invincible. People of this country. Overconfident in magic. Easy victory.
Huh if you start talking like that, that child wont listen but protect him at least. Dont be in a hurry. Lets do it slowly and surely.
got it.
With these words, the two shadows disappeared into the night.
