Episode 11
EPISODE.06
At the appearance of a completely unexpected reward, Russell stared at the green translucent window.
Did he look like he was hesitating due to lack of confidence?
“What are you hesitating about?”
I’m sure it’s not because I don’t have confidence.
Isadora said sarcastically with a subtle hint of mockery.
“no.”
Only then did Russell come to his senses and come to the front of the podium, answering Isadora.
I went out and checked the runes written on the blackboard.
‘Is it Srisaz?’
Runes were ancient characters that were considered important in magic.
Among them, ‘Srisaj’.
‘It symbolizes ice and coldness, and at the same time, unpredictable news. Or it can also be a rune that symbolizes something bad.’
Although it was just a simple rune written on a blackboard, it was written with chalk and magic power.
Even if you make a mistake while handling it, your fingers will get frostbite from the cold that flows out.
Some students who belatedly confirmed the identity of the rune gave an interesting look.
Until my third year, I never showed anything special in terms of practical skills.
However, as he enters fourth grade, he suddenly begins to show a different side of himself.
Will that inferior student be able to safely pass the professors’ exam this time? It was a look in his eyes filled with such doubt.
If you fail… … .
‘You will be embarrassed.’
No, beyond being humiliated, you will also suffer direct injuries such as frostbite on your fingers.
‘If that happens, I might not be able to properly participate in practical classes using my fingers.’
Russell clicked his tongue lightly in a situation where the intention was clearly evident.
‘I knew that Professor Isadora didn’t like me very much, but I never thought she would do something like this.’
Of course, that doesn’t mean I will just ignore it.
Because he was no longer the Russell of the past.
‘If you want to take the test, I’ll pass.’
Russell gathered his strength and increased his magic power. In the past, it would have been difficult to control Srisaz’s magical power, but it was different now.
Uuuuuung-.
The circle of the heart begins to rotate with the sound of a swarm of bees flying.
Soon the two circles react to each other, creating an even greater resonance.
“… … no way?”
Isadora’s eyes fluttered as she felt the resonance from the closest distance.
‘How could this inferior student have created a second circle in the meantime!?’
Even before vacation, I was an inferior student who barely had enough magic power to surpass the first circle.
There is no way such an inferior student could have reached the second circle during the winter vacation, which was only about two months.
I have denied reality dozens of times in my head, but nothing has changed.
Isadora’s sense as a wizard spoke clearly.
This inferior student in front of me reached the second circle during that time.
Of course, because there was some distance, the students didn’t seem to notice it.
Square, square.
Meanwhile, Russell, who had carved a few new runes on the front and back of the Thrisaz rune, put down the chalk.
Not only was there no frostbite on his fingers, but Srisad’s anomaly was also completely controlled.
“This isn’t… … .”
Until then, Isadora was denying the reality that was happening before her eyes.
“How is it. professor.”
However, when she heard Russell’s voice, she nodded with a pained expression.
“… … That’s correct. “Russell-kun.”
[You have completed the mission. Compensation will be paid.]
[Subspace is opened.]
[Rewards from now on will be automatically stored inside subspace.]
[The magic stone is stored in subspace… … .]
Russell continued speaking with a meaningful expression, leaving behind the notification that came with her answer.
“thank god.”
“Thank goodness?”
“yes. I might have almost made a mistake. “If the problem had been a little more difficult, I might not have been able to solve it.”
Isadora seemed to come to her senses for some reason at those words.
“Yeah, that’s right. Maybe the problem was too easy. There wasn’t even a proper test. then… … .”
One after another, as if possessed by something, he wrote new rune formulas on the blackboard.
A formula with a long structure and some parts erased.
The difficulty level has definitely increased a little more than before.
“Would you like to try solving this equation this time?”
[mission]
As if he had been waiting, the green window appeared once again, and Russell grinned.
‘I did it just in case, and this is what happened.’
The reward this time is simply one lowest grade magic stone. But the important point was that the missions occurred in succession.

‘I intentionally induced it to see if it would work.’
When things went as expected, I felt like I was going to burst out laughing.
But I couldn’t laugh.
Instead of bursting into laughter, he held it in and slowly filled out the formula with a worried expression.
[You have completed the mission. Compensation… … .]
After that, Russell stimulated Isadora several times in a similar way, and the missions continued one after another.
“This time, this!”
[mission]
[Complete the mission… … .]
“This time!”
[mission]
[Mission… … .]
It was after two more problems occurred that Isadora gave up.
Including the first one, a total of seven missions have been solved.
“You can go in now.”
She spoke, unable to hide her tiredness, and Russell bowed his head.
“thank you.”
At first glance, it looks like the student is being polite to the professor’s guidance.
However, there was something else that Russell was grateful to her for.
‘They say the teacher’s grace is like heaven.’
I never thought the day would come when Isadora, who had been involved in bad relationships in her past life, would look like such a generous giving tree.
Russell returned to his seat, unable to hide the laughter that was leaking out.
now.
‘I’ll have to check the accumulated rewards.’
* * *
Russell, who returned to his seat, was the first to open subspace.
Opening the subspace itself was not that difficult.
As soon as the thought of ‘opening’ or ‘I want to open sub-space’ comes into my head, I get angry. The space splits from the tip of the left index finger.
What eventually appeared was an entrance leading to the inside of sub-space.
‘The capacity is… … ‘You said it was about 40kg, right?’
In his head, Russell calculated the value of a subspace pouch of similar capacity.
‘It’s not in the shape of a pocket, though.’
I couldn’t think of anything else to compare it to.
‘How much did a pouch with a capacity of about 10kg cost?’
Although it was said to be enchanted, the subspace pouch was a fairly popular item.
Therefore, the price of the subspace pocket is also far from being astronomical.
However, that does not mean that its value is low.
‘Rather, it is a fairly expensive luxury item.’
Popular meant that you could get it if you had the money.
‘okay. As long as you have enough money.’
Russell looked satisfied with the price, which could never be said to be cheap.
‘It was a windfall.’
I never would have thought that not only the magic stone and understanding of each attribute, but also subspace itself would come as a reward.
Perhaps unexpected rewards like this will appear occasionally in the future.
‘furthermore-.’
There was another reward I got this time. When I put my hand inside the subspace and lightly rummaged around, several magic stones came out lined up.
A total of seven magic stones.
Compared to the magic stones I usually receive as rewards, there are two that are medium in size and two that are slightly smaller.
And there were five very small ones.
‘Are the two largest ones the first rewards, and are the remaining five subsequent rewards?’
The reason it was small seemed to be because similar missions were solved all at once.
‘Or maybe it was because I used an expedient method.’
Either way, it was unfortunate, but it couldn’t be helped.
‘I got this much magic stone in just about ten minutes.’
If I were to be more greedy here, it would be excessive.
Dang, dang, dang-.
Soon, Russell stood up as he heard the bell ring to end class.
Leaving the classroom, early in the morning.
I remembered today’s timetable that I checked before leaving the dormitory.
‘Professor Isadora’s class is over, so it’s lunch time next.’
Next… … .
I hope you take a few steps in the hallway like that, Chuck.
“Russell Raymond.”
A shadow approached from the opposite direction and blocked Russell’s steps.
Russell didn’t even have time to frown at the sudden appearance and said what he wanted to say.
“I was looking for it.”
Skin full of freckles and faded light brown hair. From the irritated gaze to the face that looks exactly like someone else.
It wasn’t difficult to recognize the guy’s identity.
Unlike my idiot younger brother, he is living his life at the Academy diligently. He is also the second son of Baron Frederick, who is scheduled to inherit the top prize.
Coma Frederick’s twin brother.
“Anton Frederick.”
Could it be that he came here to avenge his younger brother?
When I asked that question, Anton Frederick gave me an expression that didn’t seem funny.
“Am I here to avenge that bastard?”
He spoke with only one corner of his mouth curled up.
“Who cares what happens to that guy? “I just came to restore my family’s honor.”
“I don’t know why you came to me looking for that.”
When I responded as if telling him not to talk nonsense, the guy glared at Russell with burning eyes.
“Because of you, Baron Frederick’s honor has fallen to the ground.”
As can be seen from what I said earlier, Anton did not like his twin brother, Coma Frederick, very much.
It has to be that way.
I spent a lot of money to enroll him through contribution, but instead of studying hard, he was like a nerd who was always thinking of having fun and wasting money on tuition.
Instead of liking it, I even despised it.
However, when I returned to school after vacation, the news about that idiot-like younger brother had spread widely throughout the school.
‘It was news that someone got beaten up and started to look around.’
When I first heard the news, I thought the rumor was wrong.
As expected, the rumored opponent was Russell Raymond.
‘An inferior student among inferior students.’
No matter how much of a nerd he was, he probably wouldn’t have been beaten by such an inferior student.
but.
‘The rumors were true.’
The number of people who witnessed the change in the relationship between Russell and Koma during the vacation was too large to be dismissed as a rumor.
‘You idiot.’
Although he wasn’t my favorite younger brother, I couldn’t bear the thought of him being judged by an inferior student with the last name Frederick.
That was precisely why Anton came forward.
‘Of course, that doesn’t mean I can use my hands carelessly in a place like this where there are so many eyes watching.’
Regardless of whether you used magic or not, there was a lot of potential for trouble if you were caught by the professors.
“I came today to give you a warning. “If you don’t want to get scolded, just keep your head down.”
If you’re a descendant of a fallen family, you have to act accordingly. On the topic of a man without a father.
The moment Anton spun around, thinking it would have been enough warning to others.
“Do you think you have a knack for making long-winded nonsense?”
A cool voice touched the back of his neck.
