The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

I knew it would be like this (2)

– Bang!!

The scarecrow that had been prepared in the outdoor training classroom burned down in the explosion and fell.

In fact it is a target prepared for students to use in turns. The students gathered in the practice room widened their eyes when they saw it being shattered by a single shot of magic.

Just looking at the remains visible through the rising smoke the power exceeded the level of basic elemental magic.

‘One point explosion’

It is a type of magic with relatively low firepower for a mid-level magic. It is a practical combat magic that gives up firepower and emphasizes speed.

Nevertheless the aftereffects of the explosion were quite large causing smoke to spread around the practice site.

After a while the sight of the scene returned and the magic caster Ed Rosstaylor was revealed to be standing there shaking off his magic hands.

It must have consumed quite a lot of magical energy but it didn’t seem difficult or unreasonable at all. He unleashed a medium-level magic of this level of power with just a wave of his hand without breaking a sweat.

done. “Leave it at that.”

A practical class in elemental combat magic.

The third-year students who had entered their first proper intermediate magic practical class since the start of school were already very nervous.

Students gathered together to learn proper magic for the first time. Among them the presence of Ed Rosstaylor who had already mastered several mid-level magics perfectly was truly a source of discomfort.

Professor Kalide who had come out to the practical class and was looking at the practical training site with tired eyes slowly turned his eyes and looked at the regular students.

Their eyes widened at the sight of the scarecrows which looked sturdy at first glance falling down.

Even Ed Rosstaylor who used magic doesn’t even look like he’s struggling.

It was well known that he had already reached a high level of elemental magic but it seems that he did not expect that he could even use elemental magic so neatly.

The students seemed to have lost their will when they saw Ed shaking off his clothes in the smoke.

“Ed Rosstaylor. “You just go to class A starting tomorrow.”

“I haven’t even received a semi-mobile evaluation yet.”

“There is no need to wait until then. “I’ll report it to the Trix building so get ready to move to the school.”

I don’t think it will have a very positive effect on the students who attended the class with the expectation of finally practicing mid-level magic. Although Professor Kalide was annoyed he felt the need to take action quickly.

In the first place there was no reason for a student who had already ranked top of the class in his third year to take classes in such a low class because the class transfer evaluation had not yet taken place.

“It looks like you are already proficient at mid-level magic. Just go to class A and take the advanced magic course. “I also have a class to teach so let’s watch it again there or something.”

All right.

There was whispering among the students for a while.

Being told to take a senior wizarding course is one of the highest honors a student at the Ministry of Magic can receive.

If you can properly use even one high-level magic before graduation you will be evaluated as one of the most gifted students of your generation.

Right now even across all grades at the Sylvanian Ministry of Magic the number of students who can use high-level elemental magic is within the palm of one hand.

Even so the number has increased due to the development of the education system. There was a long time when it was impossible to even imagine that high-level magic users could emerge from among students.

“Go back for today. “There is nothing else you will learn in this class.”

Kalide yawned once as if he was annoyed and waved his hand at Ed. She meant that she had nothing more to teach so just go.

It is full of students who are just starting their first steps in intermediate magic. This is the type of student that would not be good to have among them.

Ed Rosstaylor looked at Professor Kalide as if he were dumbfounded then nodded his head a few times and headed towards the exit of the training room.

All the students were swallowing dry saliva as they watched Ed calmly leaving the practice site.

*Time flew by from the first day of practical classes.

Suddenly I received an order to leave the training center so I exited towards the student plaza.

After taking the elemental science practice class I went to the monster ecology class after eating stopped by the library borrowed a design book and asked the maids at the Ofilis Hall for some training items that could help me raise my repair level.

After that I went back to the camp and did some log trimming work checked the hunting traps cleaned the meat repaired the cabin and even thought about going to bed.

It’s not very pleasant to have gaps in your neatly planned daily routine.

It is the time when the hot summer is slowly coming to an end and the cool autumn breeze is gradually blowing.

Sitting in the student square idly basking in the midday sun… I can see the students moving around busily.

I’ve never been absent-mindedly looking at the scenery of the university because I’ve always lived a hectic life but there was definitely a scene that could be said to be a mecca for academics and a place where youth blooms.

It is indeed quite a romantic place to see students wearing their school uniforms talking loudly and hanging out around the school grounds.

There are many things I am not aware of because I am living alone and struggling to survive. What you can see only after you have relaxed a little is that this Sylvania is a place where even the children of nobles are eager to enter.

Have you been struggling to live without too much waste?

There are definitely times when such thoughts arise. I can’t help it. Living like this has become ingrained in me.

hmm… ”

As I sat quietly on the bench and basked in the sun I suddenly thought of something to do during my free time.

Since I can’t leave the university before the next class starts anyway it would be better to go towards the Obelgwan next to the student square.

In the Obel Building which is the headquarters of the current student council… There must be Tanya who returned from school the day before yesterday.

I had a feeling that Tanya would be quite busy as she still had many formalities to complete after returning to school. Since you returned to school on a tight schedule you probably have a lot of work to do.

So I thought of visiting on a weekend when there were no student council or academic schedules. Because I am just as busy on weekdays.

However since I’m running out of time I think it wouldn’t be a bad idea to visit once.

“… ”

I remembered the last thing I saw of Tanya before leaving the Ross Taylor mansion.

Standing in front of the ruins of a collapsed mansion tightly clutching a flag with the family seal on it.

As the next head of the family in charge of the Ross Taylor Mansion he was determined and looked straight ahead completely putting away his childish attitude. That last image of her kept coming back to me.

Not only that this time as the representative of the remaining forces of Los Taylor he is negotiating with the imperial family and according to Tracyana he seems to be uniting his own forces…

Compared to when you first see him he will become much more mature and his leader-like appearance that leads the group will be quite noticeable.

First let’s exchange information about what happened so far and provide encouragement if there is something that needs to be encouraged.

Well it looks like you’ve grown a lot internally… I don’t think that would be necessary.

I’m sure you’re doing a good job. Because everyone grows in the face of trials.

*

“I want to hit them all… . Ugh… . Boo… .Ugh… ”

Despite all these expectations Tanya who was sitting in the student council president’s office had not changed at all.

“It was definitely my dream to become the student council president and spread the glory of the Ross Taylor family but the family collapsed. No matter where I went people whispered that I was the next head of the Ross Taylor family. I was questioned by the imperial family. When I returned to school after a long time I was busy with family matters. The area is full of people but the student council president position remains so there’s a lot of work to do. I don’t want to live like this. I want to forget everything and leave… ”

“… ”

house… Should I build a house? I got kicked out of school… Gathering up the remaining inheritance… I’d like to buy a windy meadow somewhere in the Cohelton region or the Rameln Mountains… Plus I built a pretty nice house to live in alone… A life spent wasting time in the room making embroidery or drawing pictures… Very… Maybe it’s not that bad… ”

Or to put it bluntly it has changed to the exact opposite.

Tanya Rosstaylor who wanted to gain worldly power and become more authoritative than anyone else became a more pessimistic and greedy person than anyone else in just one year.

Thinking about Tanya’s life I think the same thing would happen to me.

Tears are about to cover my face.

“Sometimes I read a book… Go to a tea shop in a nearby rural village and pretend to be a regular… .. It’s just like hearing news about the city from time to time and smiling. If you live by pretending to be a suspiciously wealthy woman who occasionally appears in town… This isn’t a bad life… ah… I want to return to farming… I want to farm… I want to forget about power and lineage and drink tea while feeling the elegance of the impermanence of time… .”

“Tanya… “You’re so broken..”

“It doesn’t look broken… ..? Ugh… Ugh… ”

Tanya cried as she buried her head in front of the luxurious student council president’s desk.

“I have to review 97 civil complaint processing report documents within today. And now that I’ve returned to school I have to go to the Trix Building have a chat with Principal Obel and write a thank you letter for the support money provided by the Felbron noble family… I have to go inspect the student center to see if the maintenance work has been completed successfully and at the same time I also want to go to class… ”

“… go for it.

“In addition we need to check on the Ross Taylor family’s affairs. The vassals are going through a lot of trouble because Princess Selaha puts in strange checks whenever she gets the chance.

There are over a hundred letters sent to me every day and just reading them all makes my eyes feel tired and my vision becomes blurry. People don’t applaud me for working so hard but they even look at me because I belong to the Ross Taylor family… Please save me brother.

”

“… .go for it!!!!!!!!!

In fact it was Tanya who declared herself to be the next head of the family and it was her own choice to run for student council president and be elected.

The judgment itself is all a matter for Tanya and I have no authority whatsoever.

“I think you were much more dignified the last time I saw you in the Rosstaylor family.”

then… That was the atmosphere. It was a situation where I felt like I had to be brave act like I realized a lot and show myself like the next leader to lead the family… ”

“Yeah that’s right.”

“At that time I felt like my heart was pounding inside. however… In reality it’s just full of paperwork and hard work… ”

Tanya sighed and lifted her head from her desk. Then he made eye contact with me and said when he saw me wearing bandages here and there.

“You still have some scars but you’re feeling much better brother. “When I saw him at the mansion I was really worried because he was really hurt.”

“Thanks to you I got some rest in Sylvania. “There was an incident while you were finishing work and returning to school but it was resolved somehow.”

“That’s a good thing. “Brother you are planning to attend Sylvania until you graduate right?”

“Well that’s right.”

I also need to take care of the bellbroke. If I’m going to attend school I definitely want to get a diploma.

A diploma from this school was always my goal when I was thrown into this world. Now it feels like it has been given quite a symbolic meaning.

“Realistically will I be able to take care of my family affairs while also taking care of my school work?” “I have such doubts.”

then… Are you planning to stop going?”

I don’t know. In fact I still have a lot of sense of belonging to the bachelor’s department. “I plan to finish off the backlog of work during this semester and think about it.”

One way or another my sense of responsibility has definitely grown.

If things get really hard you can throw away everything and run away but no one in the world will blame you.

Nevertheless Tanya returned to her bachelor’s degree to complete all the tasks ahead of her.

Although he cried a lot it was proof that he was somehow holding on.

“Still I feel good that my brother visited me in person. For the past few months I’ve only been hanging out in places where there’s a lot of noise or with people I have to weigh in on… This is my first time lamenting like this. Now that she’s finally shaken it all off her heart feels relieved… ”

“Yes it was a lot of trouble… ”

“Anyway the family affairs are being handled smoothly. “We even recruited Legion Commander Magnus of the Calamore family and Erkel Elphelan of the Bloomriver Elphelan family as well as Senir Bloomriver Elphelan of the Bloomriver family.”

They were all famous people whose names were known everywhere in the empire. Even if they had Ross Taylor’s name they are not people who can be easily involved.

“How did you recruit such big names?”

“He revealed his hostility towards Princess Selaha without hesitation.”

Tanya completely raised her upper body and buried herself in the soft student council president sofa. She looked dazed and tired but she continued speaking.

“I thought that if it was an opponent that could not be an ally anyway it would be best to solidify its position as an opponent and unite people with similar thoughts.”

“In the end it was a political decision.”

“I just didn’t like Princess Selaha that much. “She keeps saying unpleasant things.”

Was it a more fundamental problem?

“And I didn’t like the idea of ​​acting as if everyone had royal blood. Is it all bloodline? Do you know what bloodline is? It’s just that we’re born with the same blood… ”

I never thought the day would come when these words would come out of Tanya Rosstaylor’s mouth.

Tanya’s appearance had already changed greatly from the one I saw in . Before her eyes sits a blonde girl who has become completely pessimistic and laughs that her lineage is nothing more than blood.

Are you really that villainess who risked her life for the prestige of the Ross Taylor family and always smiled arrogantly? Her heart becomes tender…

“For the time being I thought it would be better to move towards embracing our allies. Well I can handle most family issues well. “If I run into trouble or need help I’ll let you know.”

“Okay say it without hesitation. “We are a family born with the same blood as us.”

Right now it is important to support Tanya who is suffering from chronic fatigue.

I looked at Tanya and spoke without hesitation.

“I know that you are always working hard and I am sure that the day will come when you will be rewarded for your efforts. So don’t be too upset and tell me anytime if you’re having a hard time. “I’m willing to help in any way I can.”

“… ”

It could be said that it was textbook-like but in any case it was stereotypical encouragement. However Tanya’s reaction was a bit more dramatic than I expected.

His eyes were wide open and he was looking at me as if surprised.

“What is that expression on your face as if you are looking at a strange sight…?” ”

no… I am grateful that my brother encourages me. only… “I thought there was really no one around me who gave me that kind of natural encouragement.”

“It means you were doing well so far.”

“It would be easier for me to interpret it that way. What… Thank you brother. “I’ll do my best.”

Tanya soon smiled softly straightened her back and clenched her fists. It’s like I’m fighting in my own way.

Even before I was guided into President Lee’s office by the student members he seemed to be suffering from heavy work. There are a lot of documents on the desk.

It wasn’t anything special I just met my relatives for the first time in a while and talked about things. That alone seemed to ease my mind a lot.

That’s what family is. Even if you don’t share great experiences or tell great stories… They are the kind of people that makes you feel at ease just by meeting them for the first time in a while in a foreign country.

“Your brother will be staying on Aken Island all semester right? “First of all the most important thing is to pursue a bachelor’s degree.”

yes. Still I might be out of Aken Island for about a week next week. “It hasn’t been confirmed yet but you can apply for a public hearing.”

“A public meeting? Are you going to some public event?”

“No that… It’s complicated so to speak… ”

I told Tanya exactly the conversation I had with Saint Clarice at camp last night.

Prayer meeting at Cleric’s Monastery.

News that the Princess of Persica would visit a place attended by VIPs.

And additionally what Clarisse said in anger.

“He asked me if I wanted to attend a prayer meeting with him. “If you come with me you won’t be bored but will actually have fun.”

“… Does Saint Clarisse talk like that? I can’t really imagine… ”

“… ”

“I’ve never seen you have such a long private conversation. Why is that so? What is Saint Clarice… Very mature… Looks kind… Because it feels like that… ”

I remember Clarice punishing herself with a chair in my cabin.

When I think about how I was shaking with tears in my eyes I actually feel a sense of discomfort at Tanya’s words.

for a moment… Cleric’s Monastery?”

okay. Do you know?”

“Of course I know. Our Ross Taylor family was also baptized by the Telos Church. As a matter of courtesy the family in which the head of the family was baptized sends a representative to attend the prayer meeting at the monastery.”

“Did you go?”

“I’m the easiest. I am a person who inherited the blood of the matriarch but I am not someone who is busy or in a hurry right now… “If I go as the representative it will be quite beneficial.”

I could understand why many VIPs attend the prayer meeting. Most of them are successors sent from the family level.

There was a high possibility that it would be a very diverse meeting as they were people who came to represent the Telos Church as a courtesy to them.

Tanya was silently lost in thought then twisted her lips and made an uncomfortable expression.

I am… I don’t really recommend going there… ”

“Is that so… ”

“To begin with it’s Geumnam District. I remember going there when I was young… I thought it was a really weird place. Unless they are really unavoidable maintenance personnel or a high-ranking priest of the rank of archbishop men cannot even set foot on the ground… But when Brother Ed comes in I get really excited.”

I am not in a very comfortable position either.

In addition if you pass the public notice and attend the prayer meeting this means that you will have to skip all classes.

From my point of view as I watch each episode carefully I am not very pleased with it.

Nevertheless it is said to be a place where a big variable the Princess of Persica appears… I can’t help but step on her heart.

“How can my brother enter a place that has been strictly maintained as a Geumnam district for over 100 years?”

“I heard that they will try to push it somehow by taking the position of assisting Saint Clarice. “With some sort of magical reason.”

“No it’s difficult to make an exception to such a long tradition so easily… . “But I’m sure it might be possible with the authority of the saint.”

“… ”

“The people of the Telos Church are strange people who sacrifice everything for the saint’s comfort and convenience. It’s definitely nothing special… Bringing in a man might be a viable cause… Because there is a clear purpose… ”

“So your opinion is that it’s better not to go?”

In response to my question Tanya nodded without any hesitation.

“There is an image of it being a mysterious space that was originally built on the coast and can only be entered during low tide… “For me who spent a few days there it’s just a different world full of people who don’t know anything about the world.”

“Well I expect that to happen too.”

“They are said to be noble nuns who follow God’s will but they are also used by noble families to force their troublesome daughters to go away or exile them. She said she became a nun anyway and she’s not embarrassed to reveal where she is. In addition there are many orphans who were abandoned for reasons that cannot be told to others or illegitimate children whose births cannot be announced.”

A person who obeys God’s will and prays. Once that business card is used the darkness of birth and the tomboy-like temperament that one is embarrassed to show are somehow covered up.

“A place where there are many truly faithful believers and even children with family backgrounds. Anyway it’s a neighborhood that only enjoys life among themselves. I have a closed temperament and on top of that… There is almost no immunity to outsiders… ”

“What does that mean?”

Tanya spoke shivering as if something was trampling on her memory.

that… I told you that some of the manpower used to maintain the monastery were men. “Most of them are construction workers so they are swarthy or bearded men.”

“… ”

“There were many cases where those people also got upset because they made eye contact with the nuns. There is no immunity to men so much so that one wonders if this makes sense. There are so many people so immersed in dreams that you wonder if there are all these people. With a strange fantasy… that… It’s hard to say… ”

I think I was about to say something… I was almost afraid to ask any more questions about what it was.

“Anyway while I was living at the Cleric Monastery for a few days there were some nuns I started talking to and became quite friendly with. By the way. Just by making eye contact with a real man he imagines a series of trends that will flow until the twilight of his life as a partner… ?”

“… ”

“Even against those rugged men! What would it be like if someone like you fell into a place like that? ! The age range is perfect and the appearance is even-toned… !”

What kind of memories do Tanya remember from the time she spent at Cleric’s Monastery?

I couldn’t think of anything to say in response to the serious look of disgust.

just… It’s a natural disaster… Natural Disasters! For no reason things become more complicated and the likelihood of an accident is much higher. therefore… . Never go… I absolutely do not recommend it. When I think about the human relationships around my brother it’s absolutely the opposite. never!

After giving such a long speech Tanya sank back onto the sofa and took a deep breath.

Then Tanya took a moment to calm down… She seemed to soon realize that she was overheated.

that… I was so excited that I only talked about myself. “I’m sorry brother.”

no… that… “I understand your opinion.”

It is the Cleric Monastery that even the faithful Saint Clarice did not want to go to.

What a terrible time Tanya had as a child there.

I don’t know what to say to Tanya’s reaction… There was only an awkward atmosphere in the chairman’s office for a moment.

*Today Yenika’s schedule is completed with only morning classes. She was already back at camp and preparing dinner.

Usually I would choose a meal menu with Ed or look at the remaining ingredients and discuss how to cook them but today I would prepare them entirely on my own.

Yenika who had prepared a meal in advance and was waiting for Ed to come home felt proud and rolled up her sleeves and couldn’t help but hum.

I was checking the number of meats vegetables spices etc. provided in the camp and thinking about what to eat.

“Oh no… !”

A guest has arrived at the camp.

Ed’s Cabin Camp is located in a fairly remote location in the Northern Forest so visitors rarely come by chance unless they come here on purpose.

So most of the people who came to the camp were Ed’s acquaintances.

“… ?”

Yenika who had been checking the ingredients for a while looked towards the source of the sound with puzzled eyes. When I asked who she was she turned out to be Petriciana Bloom River a 4th year member of the Ministry of Magic.

We’re not close friends but I know they exist. This is Yenika’s position.

From Patricia’s point of view she knows Yenica Palover a celebrity from The Bachelor so well that she feels a strange sense of intimacy with her.

Still since they were by no means close friends Petriciana hesitantly spoke to Jenica.

“Yes it’s Yenika… ? They say they live in this camp… ?”

“… Um so… “Senior Patricia?”

“Oh yeah! You remembered my name. okay… That’s right I’m Patricia.”

Jenica tilted her head as she looked at Patrician who was approaching her in a suspicious way.

Yenica doesn’t know that Petriciana’s secret laboratory is in the northern forest. Merilda knew that fact but she did not bother to tell Yenika.

If you tried to report every move in the forest to Yenika you would end up talking about the forest all day.

In the end the information that the spirits give to Yenika cannot help but focus on things that they think Yenika should know.

“I got to know Ed a little bit because of that incident… It wasn’t a very pleasant thing but… No anyway do you have time?”

Patrician hesitated and looked at her surroundings.

Then he took out a reagent from his pocket and smiled awkwardly.

“I have an interesting item… Would you like to hear my story… ?”

Yenika who was tilting her head with an innocent expression said “Yes?” with an innocent expression on her face. I just asked back.

For a while I had to spend some time giving a long speech about the effectiveness of the reagent I had in my hand.

Yenika was listening to the story with interest at first… Soon little by little his expression began to harden.

Anyway isn’t it too much to use medicine against a person’s will in the hopes of making him open up about his feelings?

I tried to firmly say that I had no intention of getting involved in such an insidious act but…

Unfortunately Yenika was already in a position where the spirits were reporting Ed’s every move.

To put it bluntly rather than receiving reports the spirits are just talking to Yenika as they please…

In any case I am not in a position to bare my heart and speak confidently… !

For some reason that fact began to bloom in Jenica’s mind.

“How about… ? Are you fine? If I told you about these effects wouldn’t a lot of people be interested… ?”

“Ugh.. Ugh… ”

Jenica looked at the reagent in Patriciana’s hand as if she had imagined something happy and shook her head.

“No matter what it doesn’t mean it’s not true Senior Patricia!”

“Yeah… ?”

“It’s not polite to the other person… This will only worsen the relationship in the long run… ”

Ed is also aware of what the spirits are talking about to some extent. Ed himself just doesn’t care much.

But isn’t touching this reagent completely against Ed’s will and testing him?

Unfortunately there is no way Yenica who is said to be second to none in terms of goodness would open her hands to such a reagent.

However from Patrician’s perspective it was just a shock… He was looking at Yenika with wide eyes.

“That can’t be possible… ”

“First of all I don’t have the heart to do that… Senior Patricia Anna. These reagents… Please just take it back… ”

Patriciana is quietly watching Jenica who calmly expresses her refusal.

As I looked at that strong figure I began to feel a strange sense of resistance again.

“Thank you for your hard work as always Mr. Bell.”

The hallway of Ofilis Hall.

Tracyana who came out of her room spoke to Belle the maid who was instructing her to clean up the hallway.

“Petrin stopped by earlier. Did you see where he went?”

“You mean Lady Patricia? Do you have any business? Then I will send someone to deliver it to you.”

“Oh no… I think I’ll have to find it myself… Something… I suddenly became anxious… ”

“… yes?

Tracyana who was looking at Belle was twisting her body while holding her staff in her arms as if she was anxious.

just… if… I wonder if I’m going to have an accident again… There are times when I feel that way… ”

okay. If Miss Tracyana says that there must be a reason… ”

Belle rested her chin and thought for a moment before speaking.

“Wouldn’t it be too hard on yourself to be anxious about something that hasn’t happened yet?”

“Is that so… ?”

“If anything happens we will take action so that it can be reported to Lady Tracy or Ms. Tracy. “Don’t worry about it too much. Since it’s time for a long-awaited break why don’t you take some more rest in your room?”

“If you say so… all right… ”

Tracyana said that with a puzzled look on her face and went back to her room.

“… ”

Belle who sent Traceiana away tilted her head for a moment and then turned around to give instructions for cleaning up again.

After school started my workload suddenly increased. Bell was also in a state of unconsciousness.
