The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Giving meaning (1)

The idea that the world is wide does not make sense to Lucy Mayril.

That is why I always raise my head and look at the sea of stars above the sky.

The collar fluttering in the cool early fall wind brushes against the edge of my skin, making me feel strangely tickled.

The sight of her cunningly climbing on the railing on the roof of the Obel Building and holding her witch’s hat down to prevent it from flying off has not changed since she entered school.

Next to him, a cat with white fur and a black tail cheerfully approaches and sits down.

Likewise, the cat perched on the railing tactfully let out a drowsy meow and stared intently at the beef jerky that Lucy was mumbling about.

Lucy, who was quietly looking at the starry sky, saw a cat out of the corner of her eye, swallowed the beef jerky in one mouthful, and made a blank expression.

The cat, which had been sitting still, licked its own paw, as if it liked it. Lucy also looks at the sky casually.

To a great wizard who has reached the level of mastery of all people, the world is fleeting and meaningless.

The view from the rooftop of the Obergwan Hall alone makes it seem like all the buildings in Sylvania are within one fist.

For no reason, I open my hand and reach out to the scenery. As I clenched my fist, I realized that something like a bachelor’s degree could fit right into Lucy’s small hands.

The day will surely come when even this Sylvanian bachelor that Archmage Glokt was so obsessed with and tried to protect at all costs will disappear in vain.

Struggle over political interests in the era of huge natural disasters. It doesn’t matter what the cause is. It is important that the outcome, which will disappear someday, does not change.

Even if you save the bachelor from a few crises as requested by Glockt… the macro trend will never change.

That’s why Lucy Mayril sees stars.

Look up, not down.

Instead of being swayed by the fleeting ups and downs, I always see the stars and moon shining brightly in their place.

The Milky Way is captured in the blue eyes.

If this world was truly created by a writer named Telos, I want to ask why he made everything in the world changeable… but made the stars and the moon that are floating in the sky unchanging.

What suddenly comes to mind is the face of a blunt blonde boy.

Lucy’s appreciation of life and the world is nothing more than ‘satisfaction’ from the boy’s point of view.

This is because for a boy, the worry of how to live tomorrow is more important.

All humans on earth are anxious to survive day by day.

Even if you escape from the problem of survival, whether you move forward toward the dream you have in your heart, whether you dedicate yourself to your children and future generations who will follow you, or whether you strive to become a little stronger and reach a higher level… one way or another, you will fiercely conquer the earthly world. live

However, it is a sight that does not make any sense to Lucy, who is detached from all such things.

‘Be the reason for my life.’

Suddenly, a spicy and cold feeling came to the tip of her nose, and Lucy squeezed the hand holding her witch’s hat.

It was a somewhat impulsive remark, but it was past time to be embarrassed.

Above all, the first thing that comes to mind is a feeling of gratitude to the boy who nodded without much thought. Whatever Lucy’s concerns are, this boy will be there to worry about them together.

When you pronounce the name Ed Ross-Taylor in your mouth, the sight that eventually comes to mind is the back of him sitting alone in front of a campfire, sharpening his bow in solitude.

That’s why Lucy asked herself one more time.

I said those words on impulse, but how could a boy named Ed Rosstaylor be the ‘reason’ for the life of a girl named Lucy Mayril?

No, what is a life with a reason and what is a meaningful life in the first place?

After laying down the heavy burden of Archmage Glokt’s will, what meaning can be added to the empty life that will soon come?

Lucy looked up at the sky again with sad eyes as questions that had nothing to do with eating and living came flooding back to her.

The Milky Way was stretching out and flowing into a sea of stars.

*

“I want to go to the monastery too.”

It’s a long-awaited weekend.

He was busy training his repair skills to learn bow making skills.

That moment when I woke up early in the morning, inspected the camp, finished all the maintenance work, and was trimming my worn-out maid uniform.

The notice was so sudden that it could be said to be somewhat unexpected.

“…what?”

“I heard you’re going to a monastery. I want to go too.”

High, blue autumn sky. The sun floating in the sky warmly enveloped the midday camp.

It was Lucy, who was sleeping with her body resting on a tree stump, basking in the languid sunlight.

Nowadays it is no longer surprising that they are occasionally found taking a nap here and there.

Then, he wakes up with a listless expression, sits down near the work table and looks at what I’m doing, lies down on his stomach and makes a noise that he doesn’t want to go to class… Most of them are everyday scenes.

However, most of them just look like they are annoyed by everything… They almost never ask for anything first, except when they mumble about beef jerky.

So, the sudden announcement that he was going to a monastery could not help but feel unexpected to me.

“…What do you have in mind?”

“I just want to go.”

“…”

Three days have already passed since Patricia Anna started making a fuss with the reagents.

I was satisfied with all the wooden camping furniture and neat new equipment that Tracy Anna had brought as an apology. It looks like he asked Belle to find out in advance what I would be most satisfied with.

In addition, Bloom River provided special magic engineering supplies, herbal ingredients, various dried fish that are easy to store, a machete to help with survival, and high-quality mending tools to help with mending training.

He then repeatedly pressed Patricia’s head and told her two or three times that he would make sure this would never happen again… It seemed as if Tracyana’s difficulties were visible in a series of very skillful processes.

Indeed, he is a famous apology expert…

No one in the world becomes an apology expert just because they like it…

It is a sight that brings tears to my eyes.

“First of all, let’s start with the conclusion… it won’t work.”

“…”

“Cledric’s Monastery is not a place that anyone can enter. It is a sanctuary in its own way, so it seems that only authorized people can enter.”

Lucy’s mouth was already starting to squirm at my words. Still, if it can’t be done, it can’t be done.

It’s not an area I can decide in the first place.

“You’re going in. You’re a man.”

“Because there was special permission from the saint. And the name was created forcibly. What was it… He was an expert on a special disease that the saint was suffering from recently… It was medical support… Well, they made up a strange name like that. “I heard…”

I don’t know the specifics of the entrance permit, as I have left it entirely up to Clarisse.

Anyway, my only goal is to attend the prayer meeting at Cleric Monastery and meet the Princess of Persica face to face.

“Well, I guess I could ask the saintess personally and try to make a name for her to accompany you. It won’t work now, though.”

“no?”

“First of all, it’s a burden in itself, and it’s too late to make up reasons now since we’re leaving tomorrow in the first place.”

Lucy was on a tree stump, hugging her knees and making a grumpy expression.

He wants to be forceful, but he seems to know that nothing will happen if he does so.

“Don’t make that face. I don’t think there is any way. Why do you want to go to a place like a monastery in the first place?”

“You’re leaving.”

“…”

“I like this camp, but it feels empty without you. I don’t like empty cabins without people.”

There is no way you don’t know the meaning contained in those words.

The archmage who took her in, Glokt, also lived in seclusion in a hut in the Rameln Mountains.

The hut that was left empty after Glokt passed away must have felt empty to her.

“Then I don’t feel so good.”

“Anyway, he’ll be back in a few days, so don’t attach too much importance to it. And I passed my bachelor’s exam, but if you leave Aken Island now, you’ll be missing out on all your classes.”

“I don’t mind missing a few days of class.”

“That’s… true.”

Lucy Mayril’s outstanding grades are not something that can be made up for by a few unexcused absences.

He is such a student that even undergraduate professors wonder why he attends an academy like this.

In fact, it is common for students who achieve beyond the bachelor’s level to continue attending Sylvania for a diploma.

“Anyway, I can’t get your permission now… I’m just resting on Aken Island. I’m not doing anything special there, I’m just going to have a chat and then come back.”

“What dare?”

“A story about Seong Chang-ryong.”

At those words, Lucy made a blank face again.

At this point, Lucy is the only one who talks about Seong Chang-ryong without hesitation.

“I saw a future in which Seong Chang-ryong destroyed Aken Island. And I also saw it become a reality.”

We will postpone the story about the scenario assigned to .

In the first place, asking to be trusted this far is a story that goes beyond the realm of trust. It’s a good thing that he isn’t treated as mentally ill, but it’s too difficult to explain in the first place.

“Ordinary people would dismiss it as crazy. Ayla did the same. In fact, forcing people to believe it is even more unconscionable.”

“…”

“Still, there are only two people who can truly believe my prophecy without a single doubt. One is you. One is Saint Clarice of the Church of Telos.”

As they rewind time together, the memories of confronting Seong Chang-ryong are completely shared by only those two people.

He is one of the few people who fully understands the seriousness of the situation and the reality of the matter.

Other than that, people who have trust in me. For example, even if you say Yenika or Lortel… this sincerity will never come through even if you talk seriously.

I’m sure they’ll even believe it… but the seriousness of it won’t be conveyed accurately.

There is a distant difference between seeing the Holy Spear Dragon roaring as it covers the sky and splitting the ground, and reliving the fear of its flying scales… and just hearing a simple story.

“So, first of all, I’m going to ask Saint Clarice for help. I didn’t have a chance to explain the situation for a long time, but this will be an opportunity. We’ll clearly organize what we need to do.”

“A thing to do…?”

“In order to completely capture Bellbroke, we must rally as many forces as possible. First of all, the imperial forces and church forces are essential.”

I decided to share some of the pictures I was drawing with Lucy.

“First of all, the imperial power is divided into three branches. We need to unify these imperial forces and recruit them all as allies.”

“Are you trying to end the imperial dispute?”

“Originally, it should have ended long ago.”

At the end of the scenario of , Princess Fenia is Creed. By cutting out the cancer of the empire called Finn Rothtaylor with his own hands, he ascended to the position of leader in the imperial power.

In fact, it was an opportunity to solidify his position as the next emperor.

However, as the scenario twisted and turned again, Princess Selaha survived and Princess Persica survived. Her power was fully raised, and Princess Fenia even gave up her position as student council president.

In addition, the battle to subdue Crepin took place so quickly that Princess Fenia did not even have a chance to accumulate merit.

I am not really interested in her political vision or qualifications as a monarch. .

The key point is that she is the only person capable of protecting the Bachelor from Belbroke even if the entire Imperial Knights are sent to Aken Island. She is the only one who can listen to my opinion and listen to my opinion to some extent. She is the only one capable of

protecting the Bachelor from Belbroke . In order to minimize it, it would not be enough to deploy all of the imperial knights. The only person who can make that level of decision is she, who lived as a bachelor on Aken Island for several years.

“This visit to the monastery is close to a preparatory work for subjugating the Holy Spear Dragon. So… it’s actually quite important.”

“…Okay.”

Lucy nodded with a sour expression as if she understood what I was saying.

But her expression was still full of dissatisfaction. She couldn’t express it to me in particular. Although she didn’t show it, it didn’t seem like she was feeling relieved.

Watching that, I didn’t feel very comfortable either, so I comforted Lucy by pressing her head. *

”

Here’s a quick refreshment for you to have on the way here. It is a snack made by marinating various seasonal fruits brought in from the County of Zahoor and fermenting them in honey… You will like it since you don’t have likes or dislikes. And when you arrive at Cleric Monastery, would you please deliver this to Abbot Anger?”

The next morning, I stopped by the Ofilis Pavilion and received Belle’s request.

I handed over a box containing antique-wrapped snacks and a gift whose contents were unknown. I received it.

Like the face representing the Ofilis building, the packaging was neat and luxurious.

“All applications for public admission have been submitted to the bachelor’s department.” By the way, Cleric’s Monastery… It’s not that far away, but it’s not a place worth going during the semester. Since it is said that the job is to assist a saint, there is nothing that can be done… but to assist the saint directly… Ed looks amazing as expected~. Anyway, don’t worry about your undergraduate attendance and go back~”

Assistant Professor Claire’s personal lab, where she stopped by to give the official report, was already in a state of disrepair.

Also, Professor Kalide may have run away without doing his work, so the documents Anis had to process doubled. There was.

Assistant Professor Claire, who accepted my public order with an anise burning in her eye, smiled cheerfully. She

had the look of someone who has been liberated.

“I hope you stay healthy and safe. Don’t worry about camp. “I know how to manage the basic camp now,

so don’t be surprised when you see the clean camp!” After being sent off by a smiling Yenika, I actually felt lighter.

In the past, I would always feel anxious when I had to leave the camp for a few days. I felt it first, but now that I have a companion who stays at the camp with me, I feel much more at ease.

Once again, I am reminded of how blessed I am to have Jenika.

“The formalities are complete. When you return next week, please receive the procedure here again. Student Ed Ross-Taylor.”

And finally, I completed the formalities at the entrance to the university in front of Maxes Bridge.

As I passed the main gate and came towards Maxes Bridge, I saw the magnificent carriage of a saint in front of me.

Of course, I will not ride that carriage.

“Attendant . They ride separately in the carriage prepared on the other side.”

Within the Church of Telos, the weight of the saint’s name is so noble that it almost seems like it is equivalent to Telos, which was given to her.

Therefore, the honor given to me, who was personally nominated by the saint and came to the position of assistant. It was quite extreme.

A priest in holy attire politely guided me to the attendant’s carriage. The way he bowed his head politely was even more heartbreaking.

“The carriages on this side gathered together and formed a line near the saint’s carriage. You will be heading to your destination. Teacher Ed, there is nothing else to do. If there is anything you feel uncomfortable about, you can just tell us.”

“No. Thank you for your consideration.”

“You can put your luggage on the wagon now. Then, I’ll go check out my other schedule…”

The young priest bowed his head and left for the saint’s carriage.

As soon as Saint Clarice finished her schedule at the cathedral, she came to Maxes Bridge and departed in that magnificent carriage.

Cled. Even just before leaving for Lick Monastery, I am still working on my schedule. Anyway, I am busy in many ways.

I was relatively relaxed, so after loading my luggage onto the wagon, I quietly looked at the workers who were loading other luggage.

Although they were quite fit workers, they were carrying their luggage. The amount of work was considerable, so it seemed like I

was struggling. It was embarrassing to be alone while everyone was working.

There was nothing good about looking hateful because these people were going to take care of my convenience in many ways during the upcoming schedule. I rolled up my sleeves and took care of the luggage that the workers had brought. He pushed it into the carriage.

“Oh my, master. There’s no need for you to use your strength yourself, but thanks to you, I survived.”

“I thought you were from a noble family, but you have more arm strength than I thought. Are you a student from the Combat Department?”

When the good-looking workers smiled brightly and spoke to me, I appropriately replied that I was from the Magic Department and loaded the wooden bags and boxes onto the wagon. The

helping hands seemed to be very valuable in the midst of a busy schedule, so the workers continued to talk loudly. He smiled and worked faster.

“We just need to move the bags on that side. “I heard that these are gifts officially sent from the Ofilis Hall and the academic department to the church… If there are any flaws, it could be a problem, so let’s move them carefully.”

It seems that there were not only gifts sent privately by Bell, but also gifts sent for official exchanges.

I picked up a wooden box of an appropriate size and lifted it with a nod.

“Ugh..”

Why is it so heavy?

I thought it was the right size, but it was heavier than I thought, so I adjusted it slightly.

“Oh, master. I’m tired. I’m tired. This has been a big help, so stop playing with those precious hands and get in the carriage…!” ”

When I lifted that box earlier, it wasn’t that heavy… I guess I’m very tired. There’s nothing good about overexerting yourself and accumulating fatigue, so it’s better to rest.”

“I’m okay. We are people who are paid to do these things, but isn’t the Master the one who assists that important saint? “If you injure your precious body, our hearts will break even more!”

The compassionate workers were almost trying to dissuade me from doing it in moderation. It was a box that didn’t seem that heavy… but there’s certainly no good in overdoing it.

I greeted them in moderation. I said and pushed myself into the carriage. This will be no problem.

I thought to myself as I got into the carriage… A girl with a familiar face was sitting across from me.

“Aren’t the cathedral workers very kind? I also feel proud when I see it~. By the way, you have great strength. Senior Ed. Most people can’t keep up with the pace at which those workers work…” ”

…What are you doing here… What are you doing…”

I was about to say something polite, but I quickly picked it up.

The man with chestnut brown hair sitting across from me. The girl was an immature noble girl from the current first year of Sylvania.

It was Kylie Ekne.

“I am also going to assist Saint Clarice.”

“…”

“I rushed to go on a carriage ride with my senior.”

The world. Seeing Kylie smiling happily, I was at a loss for words.

“I want to have a lot of conversations with senior Ed before I arrive at Cledric Monastery.”

“That’s why I went through such trouble…”

“It’s important.” You have a story, right? I felt that he was trying to say something from the camp last time.”

When and where did I notice it?

The innocent girl’s eyes subtly had the weight of a saint in charge of the entire Telos Church.

“Can you tell me without hesitation? ? “I am… ready to listen to whatever you say.”

The coachman got into the driver’s seat and swung his whip.

So the carriage… slowly moved towards the monastery.
