EP.12 Unexpected meeting (1)
Aplia Academy.
It is the best magic academy in the capital, and one of the most prestigious schools that has produced outstanding graduates.
Dozens of academic notices are distributed every day in Aplia, which is preparing for the start of school. And, there was one notice that caught the attention of the teaching assistants.
-Basics and trading of mana.
-Professor in charge: Roselle Van Trias.
– Assistant in charge: Rania Van Trias.
The teaching assistant’s compartment is filled.
The name of someone who filled the always-empty teaching assistant section.
‘Professor Rossell has hired a teaching assistant!’
The teaching assistants were shocked by that fact.
Most of Aplia’s teaching assistants are graduates of Aplia Academy. And, among Aplia’s graduates, there was no one who did not know Professor Rossell.
A renowned elder of the Gray Magic Tower.
A sage recognized by the ancient dragon wizard.
A true teacher of this era who raised ‘Ashen Wizard’ Raniel, a member of the warrior party.
Following his reputation, most students had the experience of signing up for Professor Rossell’s classes at least once out of curiosity.
And, those who took Professor Rossell’s class with such a ‘light’ mindset came to realize this.
What do you realize?
nightmare.
And to hell with it.
‘Aplia’s nightmare, that Professor Rosell!’
A vicious task.
The class difficulty level feels malicious.
A strict person who does not miss even the smallest detail.
It’s like Spartan education that says you have to endure this much to become ‘that kind of wizard.’
What if it doesn’t work? Until it happens.
What if there is no answer? Until the answer comes.
Can’t do it? Then go out.
Extended classes are basic, and assignments of insane difficulty are a bonus. As if going against the current trend of prioritizing quality over quantity, it boasts the crazy task of capturing both quantity and quality.
Even though it’s exam week, there’s nothing left to do with that assignment.
What if you barely survive this nightmarish task?
Waiting is a hellish grading process.
-again.
-yes?
-I said do it again.
-Like this?
-again.
The sight of Professor Rossell standing in front of students who had done their homework rashly and shouting ‘again’ with a soft voice, smiling, was imprinted as a trauma in the minds of many students.
Is it because of its notoriety?
Professor Rossell’s assistantship position has remained vacant so far. Although there were no applicants, all of them quit after not being able to endure the two days.
By the way, Professor Rossell ‘directly’ brought in a teaching assistant?
That extremely strict Professor Rossell?
In the first place, how could there be a slave capable of supporting Professor Rossell’s level?
The rumor spreads quickly.
-Professor Rossell hired a teaching assistant.
-That professor is a teaching assistant?
-I don’t know who it is, but I feel sorry for you…
The rumor that circulated among the teaching assistants gathered in one place again. Interest that begins with rumors leads to questions.
Rania van Trias.
The adoptive daughter that Professor Rossell took in.
Who on earth is she?
Even though there were only ten days left until the start of school, the rumors about her not showing up were growing bigger day by day.
Nothing is known about her…
Teaching assistants who know Professor Rossell speculate.
‘I’m sure I’m going through hellish days.’
I couldn’t imagine Professor Rossell, who was fair and strict, seeing her as his adoptive daughter.
2.
“Ahaha, ahahaha!”
“·····.”
Roselle looks at the house with cold eyes. A girl lying on her sofa, soggy, catches her eye.
His disciple, adoptive daughter, and adopted son.
Raniel van Trias and Rania van Trias.
Her silky gray hair flows in waves over the sofa. She must have been rolling around in a robe, and her crumpled and wrinkled robe catches her eye.
‘What should I say?’
Roselle thought for a moment.
He no longer looked at Raniel simply as someone to be taught. Because Raniel was a wizard who had already reached the peak.
It’s been 5 years.
Since he was a child who left his arms and came back complete, Roselle was trying to respect Raniel as an equal wizard.

So, I endured quite a bit of nagging…
‘It’s only right to give a warning about this.’
First of all, as a father, I can’t bear to see that happen. Roselle cleared her throat once and opened her mouth.
“Ranielle?”
“Ah, ahaha.. yes? “Did you call me?”
Raniel jumps up from the sofa and looks at Roselle. What is so funny is that it brings tears to my eyes. Roselle glanced at the book Raniel was holding, wondering what on earth he was looking at.
‘A story about a wandering swordsman?’
For some reason, the title looks familiar.
-Hey, please read this novel. A rare masterpiece! A martial arts person from Jungwon…
-… What is Murim?
-Ah, martial arts means reverence for radish and hypocrisy…
I clearly remember that it was a novel that Aaron enjoyed reading and repeatedly recommended to Roselle.
“… “Is it fun?”
“yes? “It was in Master’s library. Didn’t you read it?”
“Aaron, this is the book my friend lent me. “I don’t think I’ve read it.”
“If it’s Aaron… Oh, you’re the dean I met last time? You have good taste. “I guess I’ll have to ask for some recommendations next time.”
···I remember being teased by students for saying that his taste was sour.
Swallowing the words that welled up in his throat, Roselle walked up to Raniel and brushed the dust off his robe.
“I know you want to take a break after working hard for 5 years… What did you do with the documents I entrusted you with? “Didn’t you say you would finish it by tomorrow?”
“Oh, it’s over there.”
Raniel points to one side of the table.
There are neatly organized folders piled up there.
“…You didn’t even touch it?”
“yes? “Are you done?”
“what? “I don’t think it can be finished that quickly, right?”
I was given a bit too much work to do something, so there was no way I could finish it that quickly.
“Master.”
Raniel smiled at Roselle’s suspicious eyes.
“I was the next magic tower lord before I left, right?”
“···yes?”
“What could I have done sitting there?”
Document approval.
The task of organizing research data that is coming in like crazy and consolidating the research results of each quarter.
Raniel, who did not even have a secretary, handled everything on his own. This means that it was an environment where the speed of document processing could not be increased unless it was increased.
‘And I didn’t tell you…’
I don’t know about Roselle, but Raniel was in charge of all the paperwork when he was in the warrior party.
It was rare for him to write personal letters or respond to fan letters from his followers, but when it came to paperwork, he did it to the point of boredom.
Kyle had never done paperwork in the first place.
Sara and Remia passed it on to Raniel because they found it annoying.
‘Summary of the situation for each battlefield we participated in, where our party will go, what the security will be like, and what we will do…’
This is Raniel, who organized and uploaded it every time.
Compared to that work, it’s just the academy work given by my teacher…
“But instead of just staying in your room, why don’t you go to the academy?”
“When school starts, you’re going to go to work every day anyway, right?”
“It doesn’t have to be the academy, so go outside. “It makes me feel uneasy to see him stuck in his room like this.”
Since I’ve finished all my work, I think I can just let him roll around in his room and play… For some reason, Roselle felt like that shouldn’t be the case.
‘There’s something this kid might be interested in…’
What kind of bait should I use to get this child to go outside? Roselle took a moment to think of something Ran El might find of interest to her.
‘… book?’
Then, suddenly, my eye catches the books piled up next to Raniel. The moment he looked at those books, a thought flashed in Rossel’s mind.
“Raniel.”
“Yes, Master?”
“Why don’t you go to the Royal Library?”
3.
-Continuous retreat of the front line.
-A series of defeats.
-Formation of a wide area barrier by the Four Heavenly Kings and the ancient lich ‘Skebal’, isolation of the knights.
– Heroes who do not appear on the battlefield.
“·····.”
-The ‘Karn’ Gorge, which had been successfully recaptured with a great victory earlier, was once again taken over by demons.
– Crisis on the battlefield.
-The Black Knights advance north.
Squeak.
-To the 4th princess, Ayla.
-Princess, please ask the second prince to consider leaving the battle line…
Take a picture.
-Currently, the retreat of the battle lines continues.
-This is a crisis.
-To be honest, I cannot guarantee the prince’s safety.
Take a picture.
-Princess.
-This is Knight Commander Heinkel.
Stop.
-Continuous pressure is being put on the 4th Front, where the 2nd Prince currently resides. Although we have deployed troops first, they will not be able to hold out for long.
-I am telling you this at the risk of being rude.
-By investing troops in the 4th front, all fronts are being pushed out.
Ayla squinted her eyes and looked at the letter.
Other people’s letters may contain conspiracies and political intentions, but not as much as Heinkel’s.
– I dare you to ask.
– Second Prince, could you please ask him to leave the front line?
“Will you listen if I talk to you?”
Ayla touched her temple.
I completely understand Heinkel’s feelings. No matter how urgent the battle is, we cannot let the prince die. So he is investing his troops…
‘It would be a nuisance.’
I’m saying it in a twisted way, but in the end, that was the point. Please leave the battlefield because it is a nuisance.
‘I wish I could do that too…’
Ayla knows very well what kind of person her brother, the second prince, is. He is more just than anyone else, so he is a person who does not fit into this royal family.
A slightly foolish older brother who is always motivated.
‘It’s clear that he’s going crazy trying to fill Raniel’s vacancy…’
I pursed my lips and let out a sigh.
There’s already a lot to think about, and even my brother is upset. Ayla felt dizzy.
“Whoa…”
The retirement of the gray wizard Raniel.
Just by missing that one wizard, the battle line begins to collapse. This will be just a precursor.
In the future, more and more fronts will collapse.
More knights than that will die.
There was no law preventing her brother from joining the procession of death.
“·····.”
Ayla bit her lip.
Just imagining such a future made me feel like my stomach was clenched.
-Ayla, look at this! I found the records of the first warrior! Hunting the monster of the beginning…
-It’s a fairy tale, brother.
-What do you think of fairy tales? All fairy tales contain the essence of bards. Do you want to watch it together?
My somewhat foolish older brother who always told me fairy tales when I was having a hard time. Today, that image especially flashes before my eyes.
“Should we take a little rest…”
Whether sending a letter or doing something.
It didn’t seem like I could get my hands on it in this state. That was the moment when she was about to get up from her seat.
-Tingling.
My index finger was numb.
I feel a tingling pain as if candle wax had fallen on me. Ayla narrowed her eyes at that unique signal.
Starlight blooming above the index finger.
Read what the starlight means.
“The meeting you were looking forward to?”
Ayla tilted her head.
