I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy - Chapter 24.1 Group Project (3)
Chapter 24.1 Group Project (3)
“Ha…….”
S class training ground, self-study room
Fuleim swung the staff around for training purposes. She entered the lounge after practice and sighed deeply. She was unable to concentrate.
“Is there something wrong?”
Haewon-ryang entered the lounge with a tired face, wiping his sweat, and sat down next to her. According to reports, Haewon-ryang was recently undergoing training that was difficult for the general public to comprehend.
“No, not at all.”
“…Is that so? If you have any concerns, feel free to tell me.”
“You speak like an old man, little boy. Is it because I was born three months before you?”
Haewon-ryang laughed at Fuleim’s perch. He liked Fuleim’s titling style of speech
“Phew. I’m Dead. What’s going on, anyway?”
Haewon-yang looked around for a moment before asking as if nothing was wrong.
“Have you not seen Mayuseong?”
“What, your boyfriend?”
“…he’s not a boyfriend, but a rival.”
“Well, you always look for Mayu-seong, so I thought you were going out with him.”
“He’s a rival, so…….”
“Oh, I guess so. After school, he goes to play every day, so why not look for it?”
Haewon-ryang opened his mouth hesitantly.
“…that is, recently, after school, he doesn’t go anywhere and just disappears.”
“Hmm? I don’t think he’d stay in the dorm because he hates to stay still.”
Fuleim pondered for a moment. It was to recall the contents of the ‘original work’.
However, she had no memory of any special incident occurring at this time.
“Looks like puberty.”
In the end, she couldn’t help Haewon-ryang.
‘What am I worried about?
Right now, she was more concerned about Baek Yu-seol than Mayu-seong. Then she asked, as she suddenly remembered about Haewon-ryang’s eyes.
“Hey, do you know Baek Yu-seol?”
“I know.”
“What do you think of him?”
“…what do you mean?”
“No, it’s just. You have a good eye for people.”
“I’ve never thought about it like that.”
“Nope. you are good So, tell me what you think.”
Haewon-ryang himself did not know, but Fuleim knew. In the future, the talents Haewon-ryang selected himself would become great and outstanding people.
“Well… I just feel like he’s a bit of a unique student.”
“Right?”
Then, when the Fuleim was silent again, Haewon-ryang asked.
“Baek Yu-seol…… Do you care?” “Yes. I do care. A lot.”
When the Fuleim answered with a frown, Haewon-ryang’s expression shook slightly. Fuleim, with her head down on the ground, did not see it.
“Which part, right?”
“It’s just so weird. The belief in pursuing knighthood in this day and age is also a belief. His personality is unique, his actions are unusual, and…”
“and?”
She inadvertently tried to bring up the story of the ‘original’ but held it in.
“…maybe, he’s just like me. But I can’t tell you what I’m thinking because I’m afraid it might be different from me.”
Jump! As soon as she finished speaking, Haweon-ryang got up from his seat.
“Huh? You said you’d listen to my concerns.”
“……I have an urgent business.”
“What? It’s bland.”
Fuleim dashed after Haewon-ryang when he left the lounge. But he vanished so quickly that there was no time to catch him.
“What’s wrong with him?”
She watched him from behind, and from a distance, Jecky approached her with a stiff look on her face. The timing was just right as if she had been waiting.
“Fuleim.”
“Uh, hello.”
It was still awkward to be alone with that girl. But when she was with other friends, she could talk to them all the time.
“What’s happened?”
“Wait, I have something to give you. …By the way, have you been with Haewon-ryang all along?”
“Oh, right. You don’t have to sing it so high. He’s in the same class.”
“Oh, no… Haewon-ryang is the heir to the Manwol Tower.”
Jecky, who was staring blankly at the place where Haewon-ryang had disappeared, handed her a note as if she remembered it too late.
“This, a boy named Herick told me to deliver it. It’s an alchemy notice.”
“…Really?”
Fuleim received the note and read it immediately. It was content that didn’t have much.
[Notice. Please note that the practice test assignment is changed from ‘D Vitality Potion’ to ‘Tyren Point Potion’.]
Of course, there was nothing special about it, but this was a sign that the main story was about to begin. As Fuleim’s expression hardened, Jecky looked at her and hesitated.
“Oh, and that… never tell the other students. You’ll understand if I say this. What does that mean?”
“It’s nothing. You don’t have to worry about it.”
At those words, Jecky’s expression hardened even more but Fuleimdidn’t notice it because she was looking at the note.
‘Be patient. Because the professor here is more childish.’
She chuckled. The other students must not share it with only the 12th group of Baek Yu-seol.
‘Can I stay still?’
Fuleim thought about telling him right away but quickly stopped at her place.
Come to think of it, no one in the ‘original’ told Eisel about this. Within the Department of Alchemy, she was nothing short of an outcast, so all other students were silent in order to suppress her, who was in class S and had good grades.
Due to this incident, Eisel closed the walls of her heart and suffered a lot of wounds … but she also overcomes this. Because she was the main character.
‘…I don’t have to help her.’
This is all for a cause.
In order to prevent a catastrophic ending, somehow she had to stay away from her and modify the original storyline little by little.
Besides, the current Eisel was not alone.
‘Baek Yu-seol.’
If he knew the ‘original’ as well as her, he would be able to prevent this incident in advance.
The main ingredient needed for the original assignment ‘D Vitality Potion’ was the cut tail of a fire mane lizard.
However, the main material required for the changed assignment ‘Tyren Point Potion’ was the shell of the Atarix Spider.
‘If it were me, I would prepare the shell of an Atarix spider, not the tail of a fire mane lizard.’
And when he sees Professor Mayzen Tyren’s bewildered face, who tried to fail him, he will report him.
In other words, if he brings the back shell of the Atarix spider to this experiment, it means that he knows the ‘original’ like her.
‘It’s a chance to try that bastard.’
Fuleim made up her mind.
