I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy

Chapter 19



Justin opened his eyes in a hospital room.

The faint sunlight from the window was brightly coloring the blanket.

When I turn to the side, I see Catherine reading a book.

“That was reckless, Justin.”

“…is it.”

Justin laughed weakly. He looked at both his hands and clenched them into fists. I still didn’t have much strength.

“I can’t even beat Hercy, let alone Swordsman.”

“of course. Hercy Minerva is not just proud.”

Catherine closed the book and spoke with fierce eyes.

“The source of that confidence ultimately comes from ability. It’s natural that you, Rawin, won’t be able to last even a moment. “Why on earth do you use that thing you carry around your neck?”

Justin didn’t have anything else to say.

“So, let’s ask.”

“Something.”

Justin sat up and frowned. My stomach still throbbed.

“Why on earth did you challenge Geomhee to a duel like a gentleman? “Are you crazy because you want to die?”

Justin said, looking blankly at the ceiling.

“Because he was the strongest.”

“what?”

Catherine tightened her eyebrows.

“You said you attacked me because you were strong?”

“okay. There is no point in pointing out someone who is weaker than me. “To become strong… you have to fight the strong.”

“crazy.”

Catherine jumped up, spitting words unbecoming of a nobleman.

“I originally knew he was crazy, but I didn’t know he was that crazy.”

“Did something… happen?”

Justin chuckled.

“Of course it’s strange! It almost makes me think I’m out of my mind! lets think. You have to be strong to some extent, but what good does it do to stick with Geomhee who is already at student level? “Did you get any benefit from being hit by Hercy?”

Justin laughed awkwardly.

“There is none.”

“But…”

Catherine hesitated to speak for a moment. But I realized that there was no reason for Justin to hesitate, so I confidently asked.

“Is that really all it is?”

“That’s it?”

“…Are you saying I only singled you out because you were a really strong opponent?”

Justin nodded slowly.

“Why do you ask that?”

“no.”

Catherine sighed and sat back down.

“When you point out Geomhee. “You looked at me like I had some kind of enemy.”

“…huh?”

“He seemed like a person with a million stories. What did Geomhee do to you? “I heard he is a very just person.”

Justin looked puzzled for a moment.

“…That’s how it looked.”

“Speak quickly. “I was curious so I waited for 7 hours.”

“What, what? 7 hours?”

Justin, embarrassed, looked out the window.

It was just as sunny as it was right before I collapsed. I couldn’t even see it in the evening.

“okay. You’ve been down for 3 days. Oh, don’t get me wrong. Because I didn’t wake up at all and only came 7 hours ago. Anyway, Hersy, that bitch… No, Hersy Minerva, she doesn’t know what moderation is.”

Catherine said as if she didn’t like it.

“If it were me, I wouldn’t use such high-level magic against Law.”

“…Catherine, you are Raw too.”

Catherine got angry and punched Justin in the stomach.

“Oops!”

“Be careful what you say, commoner. Did I tell you? I was just unlucky on test day. “I have enough skills to be considered an expert.”

“sorry.”

Justin clutched his stomach. It wasn’t just painful, it was bitter.

“Anyway, keep talking. Why do you make that face? “What’s the story?”

Justin, who was trying to speak, lost his timing. This is because Catherine’s words poured out immediately.

“Yeah, I thought so. “The Windsors I know are crueler than anyone else – it’s ridiculous to say they are just.”

“…Can I talk now?”

“You were telling me to tell you earlier?”

Justin said with a sigh.

“That’s true.”

He was embarrassed. I never expected that the expression on his face would be revealed.

“…It’s not easy for me to spar with a swordsman of such enormous presence.”

“what?”

Justin paused and spoke incoherently.

“For some reason, from a long time ago, my opponent had to be a villain to become strong. So, I walked away thinking in my heart that he was a huge villain. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have the courage or skills.”

Usually, commoners who enter the Imperial Academy have great talents.

It was because of the scholarship. In reality, it is difficult for ordinary people to pay the academy’s enormous tuition fees.

But Justin had no talent.
In terms of hierarchy, it is 1st place.
Simple everyday magic was possible, but anything beyond that was impossible.

Originally, he was a poor talent who couldn’t even step on the threshold of the academy.
The reason he was able to come here was thanks to a professor named ‘Leppen Chaser’.

A year ago, Justin lost his parents.
It was from a man wearing a black robe.
I don’t know who it is. I don’t know why I killed my parents.

What is certain is that they instantly killed their parents in front of their eyes.
Justin was endlessly angry at him.
It was said that he had manifested a strange power that he did not even know about.

It was a pure white sword made of light. Because I was in a state of extreme excitement, I couldn’t see it in detail.

The ‘black magic’ they used crumbled too easily in front of Justin’s power.
Justin was able to quickly avenge his parents.

At that moment, ‘Leppen Chaser’ saw it. Leffen told several stories.

-The person you killed was a warlock. I’ve been looking for it for a long time, but I found it in this place. Sorry for late.

-Maybe there was a purpose for killing your parents.

-If you want revenge, increase your strength.

Justin was later able to enter the academy with Leffen’s help.
The problem was that I could not use the power I had manifested even once for a year.
Even though it was clearly magic that was used with one’s own magic and hands.

Justin was frustrated. It glimmers as if I can grasp it, but I can’t quite grasp it.

‘…If I can get that power back, someday I can get revenge.’

I had many discussions with Leffen, but there was only one clue.

Be endlessly angry.

But it wasn’t easy.
Because of Justin’s personality, he couldn’t hate someone that easily.
The only time he got angry was when he saw a wicked person.

I got the idea that day.
After seeing magic he had never seen before, Justin’s thirst for power grew beyond control.

He was greatly stimulated when the small boy, whose size was only about his chest, used strong magic.

That’s why –
deep in my heart.
I decided to do something I had been thinking about subconsciously.

It was a mind map. By setting up an imaginary enemy, you increase your power by imagining that he is a villain who will never exist again.

No matter how virtual it was, I thought it would make me feel uncomfortable, so I tried not to do it as much as possible.

I was just thinking about it in my mind anyway, and I had no intention of revealing my true feelings. Above all, at that time he had a great thirst for power.

So I tried it. I did a mind map thinking that Amelia was a huge villain.

however.

“I never thought you could see it in your facial expression.”

Justin decided to quit. No matter how much you think about it to yourself, no one likes to be treated like a villain.

“What a ridiculous guy. You have two lives? “Is that why you harbor murderous intentions toward the duke’s daughter?”

“…It’s not like I have murderous intent. “I just thought he was a bad person.”

“Hey. It’s not for me to say, but you need to know some nobles. A nobleman or knight is one who tolerates other things but never tolerates insults. Geomhee… After all, the opponent is the worst. “You should have attacked Hersy instead.”

Catherine grumbled and stood up.

“let’s go.”

Justin gave a puzzled look.

“Where?”

“Let’s go eat!”

Catherine shouted sharply, crossing her arms.

“…Oh sorry.”

“What?! How dare you refuse this Catherine Ovillian’s offer of a meal?”

“Sorry. “But I have urgent work to do.”

“…What.”

“I should apologize. “I had that feeling of my own accord.”

Justin stood up.

**

When I went to the swordsmanship to meet Amelia, she had already left.

-Captain? Uh, you said you were going to Lake Delrin earlier.

Justin thought deeply as he walked toward Delrin’s lake.

-I swear you will never be seen before my eyes again.

Maybe the covenant would be okay.
Because he was always looking for Amelia.

‘But why did you make such a covenant? Because it’s annoying? Or…’

Was there another reason?
I wasn’t sure, but what was certain was that I didn’t do anything to make Ruid hate me.

I made a mistake once, but I also apologized properly.
I thought it was probably annoying. It’s not for nothing that he’s called lazy Ruid.

‘But what was the magic I saw then?’

As I walked towards the lake in Delrin, I kept thinking about Ruid, whom I had tried not to think about.

The magic that Ruid performed on the training day.
Countless magic circles and the results when they appear.

Justin, who imagined it all clearly, got goosebumps on his forearms.
It was overwhelming.
Even if you don’t know much about magic, it’s such a great magic that it makes you shiver just thinking about it.

‘I wanted to become friends… but now it’s probably impossible.’

A bitter smile appeared. I raised my head.

“I never thought I would come here again.”

The place where Justin stopped was at the beginning of Delrin Forest.

The last time I came to ask for help, I experienced terrible pain.

I never wanted to come again, but I had no choice this time.

Justin was the type of person who had to do something that caught his eye.

“Whoa.”

Justin took a deep breath and took a step forward.

And at that moment—.

“—!”

Forests filled with sunlight turned black.

Justin quickly looked around.

It was night.

It was so thick that you couldn’t see an inch in front of you.

“Well, what is it?”

Justin, embarrassed, looked back.

A huge magic circle was swaying near the exit.

-Oooooh.

Countless ghosts came out of that magic circle and flew through the sky.

The leaves swayed as they brushed against the large trees.

It was an extremely ominous black leaf.

At that time, my eyes met the ghost.

The ghost stopped. When one stops, two, three.

Everything stopped. The ghosts looked at Justin. Even though I had no eyes, it definitely felt that way.

-Click.

I heard the sound of teeth grinding.

-Crack, cluck.

The sound spread widely.

‘I have to run away.’

It was close to instinct.

Justin ran with all his might.
