I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy

A village on the frontier of the empire.

-Caw.

The crows flew up making ominous noises.
In the exact center of the village, six people are sitting.
None of these people, all wearing robes, felt the slightest bit of vitality.

They are what are called the seven deadly sins.
The leaders of the warlocks were all gathered here.

“This regular meeting is too shabby. “At this time, the false wizards would be filling their ships with gas.”

Jealous said, showing his inferiority complex.

“How much are you going to waste just having a conversation? Sitting on the bare floor is enough. Anything more than that would be a waste.”

Stingy frowned and scolded.

“But where can we talk face to face like this? You usually talk about things like snakes or turtles, right? “I have to say it now, but it’s so unpleasant.”

He said with a lustful smile.

“I was looking forward to it because I heard they had prepared a dinner. It tastes awful.”

Greed has consumed my appetite.

“What happened to the barrier?”

Chiron, the only one here wearing armor, asked Greed.

Greed shook his head.

“It’s solid.”

“Hey, is the barrier created by a 12-year-old really that strong?”

“Are you saying it’s completely impossible?”

Chiron simply ignored Lust’s words.

“I need to detox.”

“decoding?”

“If you do a simple calculation, it will take 900 years.”

Lust scratched his head.

“Has this century been a failure?”

“no.”

Chiron denied.
Black smoke seeped out from between the robes.

“This time, we will definitely resurrect him.”

“Is it possible?”

“If you can’t go inside the barrier, just call them in. For example, like this celebration.”

“haha. That’s a funny joke. “You can’t break the Academy barrier, but you can break the Imperial barrier?”

“But since there are no Teutons, it will be easier to operate.”

“They killed them all in Winter, right?”

“It’s Windsor.”

“I’m grateful to them.”

“thanks?”

Anger made my body tremble.

“Pride and sloth died because of that Windsor. Are you thankful?”

“Well, thanks…”

Lust laughed and looked at what he was sitting on.

It was a person. A dead body with empty pupils and open eyes.

“We were able to prepare more thoroughly.”

“Thorough preparation?”

Anger said with a grim expression.

“Is it a thorough preparation to eat the vitality of these little bastards?”

“I didn’t say that. lets think. You kindly told me because Sloth died, right? “There are people in this empire who cannot be touched.”

“Irene Windsor.”

It was a statement that clearly conveyed anger.

“no.”

Lust smiled brightly.

“It’s Louis Christopher. “Someone you shouldn’t touch.”

“False wizards cannot defeat us.”

Jealousy revealed jealousy.

But lust was yes.

“Well, no matter how strong the wizard is, I don’t think he will lose in an unprepared space. That’s not the point. “If you mess with that kid, all of Windsor will come out.”

Greed took over.

“It’s better not to even look at Luid Christopher.”

“right? The same goes for greed. Chiron. what do you think?”

“…As long as Louis Christopher does not interfere with his resurrection, I am of the same opinion.”

There is no need to disturb the beehive.
That was Chiron’s opinion.

“But pride and sloth were the weakest. There is no need to be passive. “The only thing that bothers me is the barrier.”

“Eh. “You may not know pride, but sloth must be quite strong.”

“If he was strong, he wouldn’t have died in one hit.”

The ‘sin of sloth’ was destroyed with a single blow by Irene Windsor.
That’s why Chiron thought Sloth wasn’t strong.

“Hmm, now that I think about it, shouldn’t we hire a new person? There are two people empty. “How about it, Chiron?”

“There are candidates.”

“Oh oh! sloth? Pride?”

“It is against choosing carelessly.”

Stinginess was not desirable.

“It’s pride. “I just called so you can check it out yourself.”

The moment Chiron finished speaking.

Giggeek, Gikkigeek.

Someone approached making an uncomfortable noise.
He was an old man with rough bones.

“You look weak.”

“I don’t think it tastes good.”

“I agree. “If it’s that guy, I don’t think my position will be shaken.”

They spat out one word at a time towards the old man. The only thing that welcomed me was stinginess and jealousy.

The old man approached them and smiled a twisted smile.

“Kuhuh. “If you knew what the small person brought, you wouldn’t be treated like that.”

“What? What?”

“Before that, please be clear. “If you like this, can I become arrogant?”

Lust spoke freely.

“Of course.”

The old man spread his hands wide, as if unwrapping a bundle of presents.
In between, a tight net was created.

“It’s a fragment of the imperial barrier. Among other things, it is a fragment of the banquet hall being held this time. “It’s only a short time, but with this, we can break the barrier.”

There is a powerful magic circle overlapping in the imperial palace.

The most difficult barrier among them was the ‘magic circle for black magicians only’.

A powerful magic circle that does not even allow access to anyone other than the living.

“It’s a golden opportunity.”

Chiron said calmly.
Lust sighed.

“It might be a trap. Isn’t it strange? Why that part? At this point, a grand banquet for nobles is held. Of course, only the banquet hall part. Plus, a celebration to honor the achievements of ‘Luid Christopher.’”

“Did the emperor use a trick?”

In a fit of anger, I ground my molars.

“But.”

Lust smiled seductively.

“Even if you know, you have no choice but to fall for it – it’s a tempting trap.”

For some reason, Ruid was sitting at his desk.
I picked up a pen and diligently scribbled something.
Ruid was studying.
Completely for personal greed.
Also known as Operation ‘Live as a 12-year-old for the rest of your life’.
Ruid prompted Ella to answer.

“My growth will be slow? Are you sure?”

“yes yes. The reason excellent wizards live long is because mana has a direct or indirect effect on lifespan. “If it’s Ruid’s magical power, I expect it to remain like that for about 20 years.”

In short, people with a high level of natural magical energy age more slowly.

‘Although 20 years is enough time.’

Ruid has already seen a shocking future.
A cruel dystopia without dreams or hope.
Ruid didn’t want to become an adult.

‘Let’s take it easy from now on.’

Now that Ella has completed the theory, all that remains is to prove it through experiments.

“Ella, what do you think of eternal life?”

“Eternal life?”

“If you could live forever, would you live?”

Ruid unfolded the map of the empire.

I just checked a few places.

It was the location of the three major sacred relics.

“…First of all, I think eternal life is impossible. But if I were to answer on the premise that it is possible…”

Ruid said, ‘Wouldn’t it be sad? ‘Because people I know die one by one and I end up alone.’ I imagined the same cliché answer.

But Ella’s answer was completely different.

“Humanity will be destroyed.”

“Yes?”

It was such an extreme answer that I was taken aback by Ruid.

“why?”

Ruid took his eyes off the map and looked up at Ella. Ella said with a serious face.

“The fact that one human being can live eternal life means that other human beings can also enjoy it. “It may not last forever, but the average life expectancy will increase.”

“right.”

“Increasing the average human lifespan means that the world’s population is increasing. As the population increases, limited resources are bound to run out at some point. “The biggest problem among them is food shortage.”

“…You think something like a world war will break out.”

“It doesn’t have to be a war. I think this world is made very delicately. “I cannot dare to predict what problems will arise the moment the number of human beings exceeds the limit that nature can embrace.”

‘…Are you Einstein?’

Ruid swallowed dry saliva.
I don’t know because it’s not from an apocalyptic world, but what Ella was talking about were problems that actually occur in real time in modern times.

“But there is one thing wrong with what you said. “Eternal life is impossible.”

Ruid looked at the map again and circled a specific area with a pen.

“In the first place, aren’t you being too negative after making such an incredible discovery?”

“…because theory and proof are different. “The more difficult the theory is, the more likely it is that unexpected problems will arise.”

“Then you can solve that problem too.”

“I think my theory has potential, but proving it is too difficult to even attempt. “It is impossible to implement with current magic technology.”

The more Ruid talked to Ella, the more he felt a strange feeling.
It was a feeling I had never felt before.
My heart feels stuffy, and my motivation boils over.

‘A sense of challenge? ‘A competitive spirit?’

Even Luid himself couldn’t define what this feeling was.

“Ella.”

“yes.”

Ella answered somewhat vaguely.
Her face was somewhat flushed.

‘Have fun.’

This is because the conversation with Ruid was very enjoyable.
It was the first time he expressed his thoughts so bluntly.

Ruid took something out of subspace.
It was a half-broken glass.

“This is a sacred object.”

“Holy relic…?”

Ella’s eyes widened.

“But it’s broken.”

“Well, the sacred object is damaged? why?”

“Someone accidentally broke it.”

Ruid had blurry eyes.
Ella stood up in shock.

“This is ridiculous! Are you human? “How dare you destroy a holy relic?”

“….”

“Where in the world is such a shameless person! “I don’t know who he is, but he is probably a very selfish person.”

‘That’s me.’

Ruid couldn’t bear to say anything.
He said he was the one who broke it.

“Anyway, this is the power that this holy relic originally had.”

Ruid took out the paper under the map.

It was the magic circle I had been drawing up earlier.
It was a magic circle that contained exactly the functions of this ‘cup of magic’.
Ella quickly took the magic circle and looked at it. Her eyes were busy.

“This is…”

Ella swallowed.

“It’s infinite power.”

“huh.”

‘As expected, I recognized it right away.’

Infinite power.
In modern times, it has already been determined to be physically impossible.
In this world, it was possible with the setting of a ‘holy object given by God’.

And that, in Luid’s opinion, was one of the three essential materials for using the magic called ‘eternal life’.

“I’m going to fix this from now on.”

“yes?”

“greatness.”

Ruid cleared his throat and asked quietly.

“Ella, do you think magic to turn back time is possible?”

This holy relic was ultimately needed to use the great magic called ‘eternal life’.

But aside from that, Ruid wanted to show something.

Magic is what makes the impossible possible.

**

The day of Ruid’s celebration.
Hersi and Amelia were waiting for the carriage at the academy.

“Of course, wouldn’t it be a good idea to bring Ruid over?”

Hercy asked as he glanced towards the main building where Ruid would be.
Amelia slowly shook her head.

“no. “I feel like I’m working hard on something these days.”

My younger brother was always sleeping.
However, recently, I have been moving around quite enthusiastically.

In the mansion, he was almost buried in books, and I saw him clutching his head and yelling, ‘This isn’t it!’ several times.

“This is my first time. “Working so hard.”

It was the first time I saw Ruid using his emotions and passionately clinging to something.

So, Amelia didn’t want to encourage Luid to go to the banquet hall, even if he wanted to.

“As an older sister, it’s right to support her. “I have to tell you about this banquet somehow.”

“I’ll help you too!”

Hersy clenched his fists.

“Even so, this time I am attending as the representative of the head of Minerva.”

Amelia smiled sweetly and answered.

“I feel reassured.”

Just then, the carriage stopped in front of them.

Before getting on the carriage, Hercy glanced toward the academy once again.

‘Damon, you won’t do anything strange…?’

Last time, Damon said something strange and disappeared.
I have never seen it since then.
I knew they were up to something, but I didn’t know exactly what it was.
After listening to Amelia’s words, I was worried that she might mess with Ruid for no reason.

‘Should I tell you? No, it would be difficult if I worried you for no reason.’

“Hercy?”

When Amelia asked curiously, Hercy said as he got into the carriage.

“Oh, it’s nothing.”
