The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Chapter 221



Poisoned Chalice (2)

Not much has been revealed about Selaha Einir Cloel.

In Act 4 of , the main character is sacrificed in order to add more tragedy to the tragedy of the Rosstaylor family and increase immersion.

She was someone who followed power, worshiped authority, and was obsessed with the nobility of her lineage, making it difficult to win the player’s favor even with empty words. Well, if you think about how he later disappeared screaming after being consumed by the power of the evil god Mebula, there were many signs that it was intentional.

If you look at the scenes where he treats his subordinates harshly and keep showing him smiling darkly while chasing power… it was a device to create a feeling of relief after being miserably eaten by Mevuller.

However, Princess Selaha survived.

Because the role of emphasizing Mebula’s cruelty was no longer necessary.

By remaining on stage and not leaving, Princess Selaha was also able to remain on this stage.

No matter who sees it in the world, Princess Selaha is designed to be a villain who looks like a drawing. Her role is to get screwed up and make an ugly exit, screaming in grief.

Her presence, which did not leave when she was supposed to, remained a significant variable as the central point of the imperial power. … I have to leave now. At the very least, you must not remain as a person who interferes with my plans.

“You made me take the steps myself. “Know it as a great honor.”

His bluish hair, as frozen as frost, flows down his sharp jawline. There is always a chill in the emotionless yet authoritative tone of his speech.

“It is a great honor to meet you again. “Princess Selaha.”

“You did something interesting.”

I slowly bowed my head and expressed my respect for having a direct audience.

Tanya, who had been looking at him sheepishly, lowered her head, but Lucy didn’t seem to care at all.

Lucy Mayril is someone who stood with her head held high even in the face of evil spirits. There is no reason to be polite in front of a villain who openly tried to put Ed Ross Taylor to death.

Selaha looked at Lucy like that and smiled seductively.

“Lucy Mayril. I can still see how arrogant he was when I visited the imperial family to investigate, but I can’t be this careful here. Is it because it’s in this man’s presence? “That’s really funny.”

What kind of crazy things has Lucy been doing in the imperial family? I wonder if she will leave as soon as she meets her… From

what I heard, Princess Fenia somehow persuaded her and brought her back to Aken Island, but until then, Lucy and Princess Selaha were having fun. All I heard was that there was a war of nerves.

No matter how Lucy is, she knows that if she openly harms the princess of a country, she will become a high treason criminal. You probably knew that nothing can be solved by force alone.

That doesn’t mean he didn’t stay still, but he seems to have been so excited that he completely kicked out the evil god Mebula all by himself. When you look at Princess Selaha’s completely fed up expression, you can feel how much pain she must have had.

“With Lucy Mayril, Tanya Rosstaylor, and even Fenia in the back? For a man of his age, he has achieved quite a lot. “I didn’t realize it when I saw it at Ross Taylor’s mansion.”

On one side is Lucy Mayril, a rare genius wizard, and on the other hand, Tanya Rosstaylor, who is in charge of both the Rosstaylor family and the Sylvania Student Council at a young age.

With the Princess of Mercy, Fenia, standing behind her, it must have been extremely suspicious for Princess Selaha.

There is no reason for someone who is building such a strong and unwavering independent force to exalt the name of Princess Selaha.

Above all, Princess Selaha is in a position where she is openly at odds with the Rosstaylor family. This is because he is a person who strengthened his political position by taking advantage of the antipathy towards the established power called the Ross Taylor family.

Therefore, it is natural to look at this request for peace from the other party first with suspicion.

“Thanks to you, a lot of me has survived. “I feel like Abama also values my qualifications as a monarch more highly, so I owe him a big debt.”

First of all, Selaha started talking like that.

“But you wouldn’t have thought that I would immediately thank you and reward you, right?”

There is not a single trace of favor in the way Selaha looks down on her in an overbearing manner.

She is an impregnable empress full of pride.

Many people would have tried to win her favor by bowing their heads in front of her knees and kissing the tips of her feet. However, no one could change that cold gaze.

People are just a means to success, and people who are liked by her are only people who help her achieve success.

Natural ability, noble lineage, and how much help it can provide. It’s not that I don’t like sugar-coating and pleasantries, but I’m sure people like that will ultimately spend their whole lives catering to others.

I thought as I slowly closed my eyes.

I have seen many people like this.

Selaha, too, has lived near the top of the imperial power and been revered throughout his life, so he must have met quite a few types of people.

There must have been greedy people who were pressured by Selaha’s overtly arrogant behavior and authority, bowing their heads and wanting soybeans.

There must have been some righteous people who were repulsed by her way of thinking, thinking of humans only as tools, and opened their eyes and had a burning sense of justice.

He rewards those who admire him and makes those who dislike him regret… That is probably how Selaha ruled.

It’s not as difficult as you think to catch and shake these people.

What humans who have lived their lives oppressing others are afraid of is… the ‘unknown.’

People who are clearly defined in one direction are easier to deal with.

However, whether it is a friend or an enemy, will it be helpful or poisonous to me?

Is it right to exclude or attract… Those who are ambiguous are the ones who confuse the minds of those who rule.

“It can’t be. “I simply expressed my respect for Princess Selaha.”

I said that casually with my head down.

Although I thought I was putting on an arrogant expression as much as possible, I could clearly feel a subtle wariness remaining on Princess Selaha’s face.

There is always that strange sense of discomfort when a superior looks down on a subordinate.

I am always in a position where I have to judge whether having this person under me will be helpful or detrimental.

If you bring in the wrong members under your command, they end up becoming mudfish that disturb the group.

“Why should you support me? “I was antagonizing you all to show off?”

“I don’t consider such emotional reasons when making my own decisions. I don’t even think about political standing. “There is only one basis for my judgment.”

Humans are cunning creatures.

It is a creature that has an inherent desire to have more of what it cannot obtain.

“Who is worthy of becoming emperor? “I just judged that Princess Selaha was the right person for the position.”

“You’re good at speaking the truth. “He is definitely a good person to have around when you want to hear sweet words.”

Princess Selaha spoke with a dark smile. The underlying meaning of the words is, ‘Anyone can say such wise words.’

“But if you really thought that way, you wouldn’t have stood by Fenia in the first place.”

“If you judged my words that way, I have nothing more to say. “Whether Princess Selaha believes it or not, I just move as I think is right.”

“Well, I didn’t think you would say it straight away. However, it is true that my status has been raised a bit thanks to my name being mentioned this time. Thank you for that. “That’s it.”

She is a girl whose pride is soaring through the sky. Just expressing gratitude can be seen as a truly great concession.

But that’s it.

“However, if you thought you could win my favor like this, you were greatly mistaken. “I never accept favors for which I don’t know the reason.”

“Is that so. If that’s the case, it’s a pity.”

When I finished saying that without going into a long, detailed explanation, Princess Selaha folded her arms and looked at me as if she was dissatisfied.

He shows no emotional agitation. At this point, there is nothing good about showing regret, regret, or resentment.

That was all.

First of all, formally, I admire Princess Selaha’s achievements and worship her.

From Princess Selaha’s perspective, there is absolutely no point in questioning or delving into me any further than this.

There was no choice but to end the search for each other by ending the story that way.

*“You always have a hard time. “Master Ziggs.”

“no. “Mr. Bell, you always have a hard time taking care of the Ofilis Pavilion.”

Belle doesn’t like being treated with respect by someone she directly assists.

If possible, he would have hoped that she would just stop talking and treat him poorly, but Ziggs, perhaps aware of such feelings, was greeting Belle with a very refreshing expression.

After a fierce battle of nerves with Princess Selaha, the pursuers arrived as the remaining schedule of the sparring meeting was about to conclude.

To begin with, Ziggs was watching the sparring match, and Belle is also an unrivaled expert when it comes to chasing down Lucy.

When the two people appear to catch Tanya and Lucy, respectively, it feels like they have formed a strange sense of kinship when they see each other.

I don’t know why the people around me form a sense of homogeneity for some useless and vague reason.

“You came looking for Lady Tanya.”

“Mr. Bell came looking for Lucy.”

Belle and Ziggs looked at each other with sad eyes for a moment, then greeted me to take care of their own business.

I nodded and handed over the lost item (Tanya Lucy) that I had been keeping.

“What happened?”

Belle, who suddenly felt a strange sense of discomfort as she grabbed Lucy and dragged her away, asked first.

Normally, Lucy would not put up any resistance and would be dragged along with a blank expression on her face, but she didn’t seem to be in a very good mood today.

“I had a brief conversation with Princess Selaha. “I sat next to you.”

“…I guess you haven’t heard any good stories.”

“Well, since Jungkook is Jungkook, he was quite sharp.”

“…I don’t really like that girl. no.”

Lucy pursed her lips, but I, the person involved, didn’t show much interest. In the first place, whoever is in the position between Princess Selaha and I cannot help but be on guard.

That’s what it means to be on the opposite side of the political spectrum. At that point, it is more difficult not to build up negative feelings.

“Come to think of it, after the sparring, you attributed it to Princess Selaha. “It was unexpected.”

“You should think so.”

“…I don’t know how you will hear me when I say this, but I doubt whether such a conciliatory measure will work on Princess Selaha.”

Ziggs hesitated and began his story.

“I don’t have to say it negatively, but isn’t Princess Selaha really a proud person? “If you erase a debt, rather than remembering it and trying to repay it, the other person is likely to take advantage of it, knowing that they are watching out for you.”

If you speak carelessly, it becomes an insult to the royal family.

Nevertheless, Ziggs seemed to think that the people here were trustworthy, and for a Ziggs, he expressed a rather bold opinion.

“I think that kind of approach will give the opponent the impression that you are easygoing. Are you okay?”

“I’m a bit skeptical too, but Princess Fenia has raised her voice so strongly that this direction is right.”

I answered Ziggs with difficulty as I pulled Tanya away from the corner of the bench, saying I didn’t want to go.

“At least I think you know more about Princess Selaha than I do, so I decided to trust her for now. “You probably have an idea.”

“okay. If that’s what your judgment is, well… Now, Chairman. let’s go. “There is a lot of festival work piled up.”

“Uh… senior Ziggs. Do you remember how many items remain to be dealt with today?”

“Senior Anis, I’m sure you are fully aware of this… Actually, it is not that important how much work is left to be done today.”

“Why why?”

“I can’t handle it all today anyway.”

Tanya looked stunned and was grabbed by Ziggs’ hand. A strange sense of immorality came over me, as if I was giving up my younger brother, who shares the same blood with me, to the devil, but I couldn’t help it…. This was right….

“Anyway, I have to go now. “There’s still a lot of festival left, so cheer up, both of you.”

The festival atmosphere is still hot.

I was in a position where I couldn’t fully enjoy the festival because I had to prepare for sparring, manage camp, and practice personal magic… but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get in the mood for the last part of the festival.

Perhaps Princess Selaha will also stay in Sylvania a little longer. In the meantime, I will collect more information about myself and try to properly analyze the reason for my sudden actions.

― ‘It’s okay if you don’t want to do anything anymore. If you stay quiet… Selaha will figure it out on her own.’

Princess Fenia rarely spoke so firmly. Let’s try to believe that a little more.

I’m not sure what this means yet.

So I saw off Belle, who came to catch Lucy, and Ziggs, who came to catch Tanya.

I sat alone in the quiet waiting room hallway again and rested quietly for a while. There was some time before going to see the emperor, so it was a good time to rest.

Suddenly, it was the moment when I was sitting in the waiting room again and trying to rest. Belle, who was about to leave with Lucy, suddenly turned and entered my waiting room.

“Ah, Master Ed. “I forgot I had something to tell you.”

“What do you want to say?”

“yes. Actually….”

―Bang!

It was at that moment that the waiting room door opened wide.

*”doesn’t exist…!”

Yenika’s complexion began to turn pale.

There were many people around who wanted to see the faces of the emperor and princess up close.

The audience in the sparring hall was in complete chaos, so the academic staff and student members were trying to control the number of people, but it was not easy.

My ears are ringing with the voices of people praising and shouting “Long Live” to Emperor Cloel, the greatest saint on the continent.

Getting lost in such a complicated place is a huge waste of time. Since I saw Ed Ross Taylor’s face and the Emperor from afar, I was thinking of taking my parents with me.

However, while Jenica looked away for a moment, Orte and Selaha disappeared on the spot.

There is no reason for the two to act independently. Did he not notice that he was separated from Yenika for a moment?

The two people who first entered Aken Island had no way of knowing the internal structure of Sylvania. Although she thought she wouldn’t be able to walk around without knowing anything, an uneasy feeling suddenly seeped into Yenika’s heart.

There is no way the energetic father and mother from the countryside can stand still after seeing Ed Rosstaylor face to face right now!

They had come all the way to Aken Island, packed with gifts, from so far away, but there was a gracious master just around the corner, so they weren’t two people who wouldn’t do anything!

I’ve been able to explain the momentum until now, but if I don’t get him out of here quickly, there could be a catastrophe!

As those thoughts began to fill her mind, Yenika began stamping her feet. However, no matter how hard I searched near the seats, I couldn’t see the two people.

Eventually, when she noticed that the envelope containing the gift box she had brought from her hometown had disappeared, she realized that her anxious prediction had become a reality.

“Oh my, Master Ed! It is such a great honor to meet you in person! This is Jenica’s father. I heard that our Yenika has benefited a lot from your hard work. I was so caught up in Pulan that I couldn’t sit still, so I brought a gift myself and came to visit! “We are not this light-hearted, so how could we stay stuck at home after receiving such great grace!”

“honey! He’s a cruel person! Butt! What should I do if you say such vulgar words in front of the duke master? Forgive me, Master Ed. He spends his days milking cows, so he doesn’t know much about the etiquette of nobles. Of course, I don’t know much about that either… Even if we lowly people are rude, please be magnanimous and overlook it, thinking it’s because we don’t know…!”

The couple who introduced themselves as Orte Palover and Sayla Palover gave the impression that they were village workers and women.

I don’t know how the two got through the security guards and got here. To get to the participant waiting room, you have to cross an internal hallway where no one except those involved is allowed to enter.

“How did you get in here?”

“Oh my, Master Ed. Did you come in? That’s too long! The words are too long! Just keep it short! That man, Orte, is a man who knows when and on what subject to step forward!”

“That’s right. Master Ed! Just what are you guys? Or… what are you here for? “It’s okay!”

“Now wait… Sayla… Anyway, that’s…”

“Honey, in times like this, you have to take a more low-key stance. Master Ed. Just think of it as a waste of time and accept these gifts here. “We were wondering how to repay the favor we had received, and we slaughtered the best cow from our ranch.”

Seila took out beautifully wrapped gifts from the basket and arranged them neatly on the table in the waiting room.

“The meat from our Palover Ranch is of such good quality that even high-ranking people look for it. You won’t be disappointed! “It tastes really good no matter how you cook it, so just tell the employees to cook it the way they like it most!”

“Oh my, Miss Yongin. This is really, really good meat… I hope they provide a dish worthy of it… Because good ingredients are happiest when they meet a good chef…”

There is no such thing as a servant, and the most likely thing is that I will just cook and eat it myself. big.

I didn’t necessarily say that, but I think I mistook Belle Maia, who was just standing blankly next to me with Lucy, for my personal servant.

I’m sure he must have seen Belle’s face at the Ofilis Hall, but is he not particularly interested?

Or is it that they perceive that if they are a user of the Ofilis Hall, they are also a user of mine?

I’m not even a member of the Ofilis building to begin with…

“Oh, I understand.”

I couldn’t believe my ears.

It’s not often that Belle Maia stutters.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I looked at Bell and saw that he was looking at me with an embarrassed expression on his face.

It seems like there’s something he really needs to tell me, but he looks like he hasn’t said it yet.

Of course… I was able to guess it without difficulty.

I’m so disappointed, Bell…

I too… I have that much sense…

“We, Yenika, are really indebted to you…! Master Ed! Didn’t you cause any inconvenience…?!”

In short, isn’t this a story about asking Yenika to fly because it’s in front of my parents…!

“Obviously Yenika is an outstanding friend. “He is my best friend who is just like you two, with good character, hard work in everything, and outstanding skills.”

“friend…! Friends… did you hear honey?! A master from a famous central noble family saw Yenika and called her ‘friend’…!”

“Am I… dreaming…?”

There’s a lot of fuss in his reactions, so I feel like I’m getting tired just by being with him. Still, I thought I had to adjust it first.

One way or another, Yenica owes a lot. I can do whatever it takes to help you shrug your shoulders in front of your parents.

“I have a solid grasp of the basics of elemental science as well as elemental arts, which helped me a lot in my training in many ways. Also, he was so good at household chores, such as cleaning and cooking, that it seemed like he had received an excellent education from the time he lived at home. It’s really hard to see such a healthy girl these days… I owe it to the excellent education you two received.”

“I’m so sorry. Master Ed! Our Yenika… hehe… hehehe…. hehehe hahahahahaha!’

Just by watching the corners of the mouth rise to the point of honesty, it is clear what kind of person Orte is.

On the contrary, when I interact with people like these who reveal their sincerity like transparent glass, my heart also feels warm.

It is much more direct and refreshing than a conversation between high-ranking nobles who hide their true feelings and only speculate on each other’s intentions.

“We were a little worried! In fact, I sneakily entered the waiting room hallway pretending to be an official. When I mentioned the name of Failover, they managed to let me through. “I was moved to understand at once how much trust Jenica was in.”

“Still, you’d better not wander around carelessly.”

“If you say so, then so be it! Master Ed! Anyway, I hope you stay healthy. Also… if it’s not a hassle, I hope to go to Master Ed’s residence and cook for him myself.”

I quietly listened to Orte’s story with my arms crossed.

“Of course, we have great users, but we would like to serve the first dish ourselves. We cook the meat from our hometown the best. I am really confident in the taste. So, do you mind if we show you our skills just once?!”

“that’s right. My husband may not be good at delicacy, but with me, he can create a taste that even top chefs would envy. “You will be truly amazed!”

Sayla rolled up her sleeves and spoke vigorously. It is rare to see someone so confident. At this point, you can’t help but be curious.

“Well, that’s about it… But my residence may be very different from what you imagine.”

“no! It’s not possible!”

The person who suddenly jumped in was Belle Maia, who was holding Lucy. It was a completely unexpected situation.

“…bell?”

“Mr. Sa Yongin…?”

“Hmm…”

Belle, who was silently receiving my puzzled gaze, probably came out reflexively, and spoke with a drop of sweat pouring out.

“That’s right. “Cooking is a source of pride for our top-notch maids.”

“Is that so? Surely, if you are Master Ed, you will be accompanied by a top-class maid who boasts the highest level…” “

Yes, that’s right. So, Master Ed… my master only serves the highest quality dishes prepared with pride by top chefs. “It is an insult to me, who is in charge of the meal, to recklessly bring another cook into Master Ed’s residence.”

Belle suddenly started making strange noises. He was even telling strange lies about being the master and all.

Belle has no pride or pride as a chef. I just use it as part of my livelihood.

Although I’m good at cooking, I don’t do anything to take unnecessary pride in it.

But Belle had a desperate look on her face.

Those two people could never be allowed to come to my residence… Their faces showed a strangely determined determination.
