morning. The professors who came to work murmured.
“What is this…”
A complex magic circle was embroidered in the air.
“Barrier…yes.”
Phenicia touched the magic circle with a blank expression. It was a warm barrier that had just been created, and it looked like it was being applied. At this rate, it will take three or four days.
“Who would do this?”
“It is a barrier of quite high difficulty. At this rate, several imperial wizards would have to gather together… Vice Chancellor. “Has there been an official letter from the imperial family to strengthen the barrier?”
Phenicia shook her head.
“no. And, even if it came from the imperial family, it makes no sense for a barrier of this level to be completed overnight.”
The professors looked puzzled. We looked at each other and whispered. At that time, Clifford walked in with a solemn expression.
“Tsk tsk. “Do you all have knotholes in your eyes?”
“Father, no. President.”
“Is there anyone in the academy or in the entire empire who can design a barrier of this level?”
Clifford looked at the sky. The sight of countless magic circles covering the sky was truly spectacular.
“Unless Archmage Delrin rises from the grave, there is only one person who can use this barrier. “It’s Louis Christopher.”
Clifford chuckled.
“That bastard, I guess he felt sorry for blowing up the main building.”

Ruid walked towards the academy with a refreshed expression.
“Of course, simple is the best.”
After getting rid of all the complicated worries, I feel lighter.
‘okay. ‘I’m going to live like this all the time, lazily.’
Ruid decided not to hesitate anymore. In the meantime, I hesitated to take action because of concerns about whether I should have done it as a minimum human being.
I decided not to pay attention to anyone else. Original or whatever. However, Ruid decided to keep one thing in mind. Get rid of anyone who interferes with your daily life and your laziness. …except family.
“It’s really amazing every time I see it.”
“right? “What on earth is that?”
“Maybe we are in history.”
“I have to remember this scene.”
‘huh?’
Arriving at the main gate of the Academy, Ruid looked up at the sky.
No, there was no need to look at the sky.
No matter where you looked, there were colorful magic circles.
What was flowing from there… was Ruid’s own magic power.
“….”
Ruid entered the academy with bleary eyes.
‘I didn’t know it would end up like this.’
Of course I knew that it takes time for the barrier to be applied, since I am a caster.
I had no idea that such a geometric magic circle would continue to float in the air.
‘…Why are people gathered together?’
There were a lot of people near the front gate. Ruid turned towards that direction with curious eyes.
Kwaang-!
Something happened, and the professors were gathered together to test the strength of the barrier.
Phenicia’s fireball exploded mercilessly against the wall.
“Even though it’s an imperfect barrier, it’s still this bad.”
“It’s a bigger barrier than I thought.”
“Damn it, when is Prince Ruid coming?”
Ruid turned around without hesitation.
“Hey, over there! “It’s Prince Ruid!”
“Catch it!”
Ruid ran away with all his might.
**
“phew.”
Ruid wiped the sweat from his forehead.
I used magic to escape, but I only sweated because of tension.
The professors running in a drunken state were scarier than a zombie apocalypse movie.
‘I’ll have to hide for a while.’
Let’s leave the explanation of the barrier to Hercy.
Ruid entered the Forest of Delrin as usual.
however…
“!!”
I found a yellow ball of fur lying on the floor. It was Amelia.
“Sister, are you dead?”
Ruid squatted in front of Amelia and pressed her head with a cane.
There wasn’t even a slight movement. Ruid had a sad expression.
“hi.”
Let’s hold the funeral well. I covered Amelia with the large leaf next to me.
“Keuuu….”
“…He survived.”

Amelia raised her head. He trembled while holding his hand out to Luid.
“I’m hungry.”
“….”
Rumbling!
‘Lightning?’
Ruid opened his eyes wide and looked up at the sky. …it was clear. It was a sound coming from Amelia’s stomach.
‘Can a human stomach make a sound like this?’
“Pear, pear…”
Ruid sighed and took out a blade of grass from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
This is not just a time to solve. It was an all-purpose herb whose nutrients had been modified through magic. In theory, you can maintain your nutrients just by eating this.
“eat this.”
However, Amelia spit out the grass without chewing it.
He said while looking at Ruid’s eyes.
“Oh, meat…”
Ruid’s eyes became salty and cold.
**
Amelia says she has been starving for the past week.
What I didn’t tell myself was that I couldn’t bear to be the older sister and ask my younger brother to cook dinner for me.
‘Then starve or not.’
Amelia was a proud fool.
Ruid had no choice but to call Miho and tell her to catch fish on the way.
As she said, Miho was a useful fox. An arctic fox catching a wild boar. Wouldn’t it have been unfair from the wild boar’s point of view?
Wagu wagu.
The large barbecue in Amelia’s hand quickly disappeared.
Amelia eats a lot. Perhaps because he was a knight, he tended to consume a huge amount of calories per day.
Ruid had no doubt that Amelia would become top tier if she moved to modern times and started a mukbang.
“Now, this is a fox’s.”
[Thank you!]
‘Then I have to eat mine now.’
Ruid took care of Miho’s hard work and started grilling his own meat. Ruid’s menu was steak. A classic, yet menu that no one can ignore.
“….”
While I was grilling meat, I felt eyes on me and turned my head.
Before she knew it, Amelia was holding a wild boar’s leg, which only had bones.
For reference, the name of the wild boar that Miho caught is Giant Grill. As its name suggests, it has a huge size, and the leg parts given to Amelia were larger than Amelia herself.
I can’t believe I ate it all in less than 5 minutes!
‘How hungry were you?’
“I’m sorry.”
Amelia’s face turned bright red with shame and she lowered her head.
Grumble.
It even seemed like he was still hungry.
“I won’t complain if you eat Kaimak when I get home later.”
“I have never stolen my sister’s Kaimak.”
“…Wasn’t that you?”
“I guess it’s Irene’s older sister.”
Ruid shook his head and then grilled Amelia’s meat in one go.
Cooking is a very cumbersome task. However, grilling meat could be done very easily with magic.
Ruid sprinkled salt on his face and said while looking at Amelia, who looked like she was going to be embarrassed.
“Does it make sense to starve no matter how much money you have?”
Amelia’s shoulders twitched.
“Yeah, that’s right. “Luid.”
“Do you have any donations?”
Windsor, who left home, usually lives off of donations. It’s daily life for nobles who want to make even the slightest connection to form a line. Even though he has provided Amelia with money up to now, it makes no sense that he has not received any donations.
“…huh.”
“It does not make sense.”
Ruid suddenly opened his eyes.
Amelia smiled awkwardly and avoided eye contact.
Actually, there was one. But…
-I don’t accept your gold. I just did what was natural for a knight.
-Sorry, but we cannot accept donations. I cannot take responsibility for any future.
I have refused it myself! Yes, that’s cool as an article… In fact, the reaction of people around me was ‘Of course it’s Amelia. Because it was ‘noble, noble!’
I used to think that money was all that was needed. Thanks to Ruid, my room and board was taken care of, so there was no need or reason to spend anything else. But I had no idea things would turn out like this.
“No, you can just hunt it yourself and eat it.”
“Great, Ruid. Even though my sister looks like this, she is the leader of a knighthood… and has the authority to hunt and eat any animal…”
“Fool.”
“…!”
Amelia’s eyes shook.
‘Your authority as an older sister…!’
With a pitiful expression on his face, Ruid used telekinesis to give him the cooked meat.
Amelia tore into the meat, half crying.
‘Why is this so delicious?’

Imperial Household.
“your majesty. “It is said that a new barrier has been created at the Academy.”
“New barrier?”
Lucius took his eyes off the document. He can do several things at the same time, but he often shows this behavior when he receives interesting reports, like now.
“Interesting. Go ahead. “What is the level of barrier?”
“…That is said to be a 5-star barrier.”
Lucius’ eyes widened in surprise.
“If it’s 5 stars, isn’t it a special rank established in the imperial family?”
“The maximum rating that can measure this barrier is 5 stars, so I have received reports that it is worth more than that.”
“That’s amazing. “Who is the talented person who created that barrier?”
“…This is Luid Christopher.”
“what?”
Lucius, who knew how many wizards had to be replaced to create a single barrier, was astonished.
“Are you saying that Ruid completed the barrier alone?”
“That’s right. “Suddenly one morning…”
Lucius couldn’t hold back and stopped talking.
“Is that realistically possible?”
I know that Ruid’s skills are outstanding. But I never imagined it would be like this. Lucius smiled brightly.
“I was already worried because the academy, where the empire’s talented people gathered, was overrun with uninvited guests. “That’s really good news.”
But Michael broke into a cold sweat.
“That’s…”
“Is there something wrong?”
“It is said that the medium used was Delrin’s staff.”
Michael bowed his head, anticipating the emperor’s disapproval.
Delrin’s staff was a gift from the emperor.
“Haha!”
Lucius laughed out loud.
“What’s the problem? Instead, I gave it back to the empire for my own use. “It deserves praise.”
As its name suggests, the Imperial Academy belongs to the empire. Actions that are beneficial to the Imperial Academy ultimately have a positive impact on the empire.
‘…If it’s a 5-star barrier, it will be able to sufficiently respond to invasions from foreign powers. It will be of great use in the future when war breaks out.’
The emperor smiled bitterly.
How could he accept the good intentions of a child who was like a nephew like this?
Although he was the emperor in charge of the empire, Lucius did not like his calculating side.
But he said it with a bright smile.
“You can’t just accept something like that and sit still. “I should give Ruid something useful.”
“yes. I will forward it to you right away. “What should I give you?”
Lucius pointed his finger at Michael.
“…?”
“you.”
“yes? Oh, no. “Did I hear you wrong?”
“I guess I should do this for my nephew who has a hard time with class every time. The gift to give to Ruid is you. Aide Michael. Select about 5 people from the Imperial Knights and bring them with you. Until Ruid graduates from the academy, make sure there is no inconvenience to the tee.”
Michael blinked.
“yes?”
She committed blasphemy by questioning the emperor.
