Chapter 65 – The Truth
※Professor of Magical Sciences Name: Diaren
By the Spirit King who manifested in Middle-earth in the form of an aquatic whale,
After evacuating the academy students, the professors of the academy, who were in a frenzy, began to flock to the epicenter of the incident to grasp the situation.
Fortunately, the purpose of the spirit king’s appearance is not to cause a natural disaster in the academy.
After Rohan and Diaren’s explanation, the professors, whether they were convinced or not, left to settle the confusion that had occurred in the academy.
So,
A total of three professors remained here.
“My lab…”
Although there was no direct exercise of power,
Even the appearance of a king can cause the surroundings to be swept away by its aftermath.
Thanks to that, Diaren’s laboratory was devastated as if it had been hit by a flood.
The other time it struck lightning,
Are you talking about a thunderbolt this time?
With people pretending that they might not be siblings.
Diaren was almost enraged and tried to bully the person who caused this situation,
She gave up on the drug and stopped when she found Rohan’s face looking at her Eve, who had regained a fresh, calm look.
Because now she would spill anything on one ear if she said anything to him.
If she had to question it, she said that she had stabbed knives at her throat, and she was not at all to blame for herself.
Diaren can be so generous
I realized something after the last lightning strike, so it was a big thanks to hiding important data in the very depths of the laboratory in advance.
A place where it would be okay if the lab was completely burned down or struck by lightning.
But that’s it.
I have to say something sharp.
After thinking so, Dia Ren finally opened her mouth to Rohan.
If you hear it with one ear and shed it, she intends to talk until she hears it.
“You did a great campaign. Isn’t it?”
Even though they were professors at the same academy, there was a big difference between Rohan and Diaren.
To have what is called seniority, Rohan was still too young and too emotional.
Especially in matters involving my sister.
Therefore, Diaren was able to clearly see through what Rohan was thinking when he summoned the Spirit King as well.
“It was just a warning.”
It’s ridiculous that an academy professor has hostility toward just one academy student.
The words he used to even threaten with all his might were just warnings.
Dia Ren snorted at her, but she already knew that she wasn’t lying.
“Since I am such a strong, fearful, and reckless person, don’t even dream of touching Eve… Your idea is obvious. In addition to that, it even goes so far as to fuck me when I don’t like it.”
“…”
“Baby? Show off your strength and be intimidating.”
“It doesn’t matter if you’re like a child or whatever, as long as you can make them understand.”
As if my reputation had nothing to do with it, only for Eve’s sake.
It was so cute, no, her terrible love for her younger brother made Dia Ren’s eyes black.
Anyway, the situation was settled.
The knife-wielding man was subdued, the dying man was given medicine and he managed to save it, and he explained the situation to the academy professors who were in a commotion and sent them back.
The only problem left now is his half-flying laboratory.
Dia Ren had lost the bitterness in her mouth, and she feigned her composure as she put to rest the boiling heat inside, she said.
“I know that because I will firmly claim damages for the materials that have been blown away.”
That was the age.
Rohan, who had endured the possibility of becoming an enemy of Diaren at all, and worked together,
He hesitated for a moment, unable to accept the generosity that had been given so graciously, and then said so.
“… Anything.”
However, for professors
There was one problem that hadn’t been resolved yet.
That was the attitude of a man with a knife.
The professors weren’t completely ignorant people, and judging by Ian’s words and attitude, he dimly realized that he didn’t suddenly come in with a real sword clutching his real sword with a hostile mind towards Eve.
So, now that the situation has reached a lull,
It was time to dig up the inside story.
Shouldn’t they be punished or expelled only when they know the crime?
Diaren is the eldest in this position,
She spoke first as if holding a gun.
“Ernest’s eldest son… Apparently, his name was Ian. Ian. Let me explain.”
“Wait, Diaren. What do you explain to the guy who went crazy with a knife?”
Rohan immediately mocked him as hard as he could, but listening to it, he wasn’t completely wrong.
Dia Ren pondered for a moment, but thought she still had to listen to her story, so she dissuaded Rohan, and she continued to look at Ian.
But he doesn’t seem to have the energy to answer.
Almost like a mouse struck by lightning,
It looks more like that with her radiant blonde hair flowing like wet seaweed.
However, what Ian really lacked was his mind and spirit rather than his body exhausted from dealing with Rohan’s power.
In the end, before he could feel the guilt of not being able to protect Eve and making him drugged,
Finally, for Eve, who clearly witnessed how quickly she was stabilized as soon as she was given the medicine,
The moment came when he had to admit that what he had been thinking was wrong.
So Ian said that even though he was questioned,
He put the first thing in his mouth that he couldn’t help but ask.
“That… What drug is it?”
“Can’t you see? It’s a drug.”
“…”
“To be precise, it could be said to be a medicine containing mana.”
“That’s not a drug, is it?”
“I think I understand roughly what kind of misunderstanding you are.”
Under.
Diaren laughed involuntarily.
Doesn’t that mean that all this time he saw himself as a professor doing shameless things to a woman who had lost her mind?
Judging by how they do it, that illusion doesn’t last for a day or two.
Diaren was displeased with all the imaginings of what this sword-wielding monster must have done.
What is it?
His eyes looking at Eve couldn’t be so affectionate.
To the extent that even Diaren, who was born cold-blooded and had no attachment to anything other than herself and magic, had no choice but to admit it.
So, he means that she did this with her mind thinking of her.
Dia Ren thought so as she looked at her Eve.
Do you have a knack for making people around you stupid?
Before he gets swept away by it,
Diaren decided to point out the exact truth one by one.
“Eve Christmas’s body can’t produce magic power. Relevant institutions have been destroyed. That bastard’s father made it that way.”
“Diaren. Don’t talk nonsense.”
“I wouldn’t have done it if you hadn’t done useless things. If you do something wrong, just shut up.”
“…”
“Anyway. Of course, the prepared medicine is the undiluted pistil of the flower containing pure mana… So, you could call it a cure. There’s no such thing as addictive drugs like you think, and there’s never been a paper showing that they cause nervous system abnormalities. It is truly the best cure, except that it is so rare and expensive that it makes you nauseous.”
In the opposite way to when it came,
Ian, who had been listening silently, had a problem and told Diaren.
“Is it non-addictive? But…”
“Know. Her attitude probably wasn’t like that. Then I’ll ask you one thing. Do you know exactly what mana is?”
“I mean precisely.”
“The power to make children play tirelessly, to maintain youth, and to heal the wounds of the injured. So mana is life force. If you want to listen more closely, you can listen to my lecture…”
“…”
“To put it simply, a body that cannot produce mana is no different from being unable to produce life force, so that’s why it’s like that. You are literally dying. In fact, it’s good that you’re still alive. If that brother-in-law hadn’t been a tolerably overbearing guy, he would have gone to the Nether Road more than ten times.”
“Senior…”
“So pretending to be addicted to drugs is actually just a struggle to survive. Come to think of it, the situation with that child these days to not take the medicine is like that, and seeing what you’re doing… Is it true that you failed to get the medicine right?”
Ian nodded as if to break his head at his words.
When I heard that far,
Several scenes with Eve flashed quickly through Ian’s mind.
And the moment she realizes one by one that what she thought Eve was stopping her stubbornness was actually her own mistake.
Ian was overcome with the feeling that his feet were collapsing.
He falls into a swamp that pulls him like an abyss,
He was struggling as if he was struggling.
As the hatred towards himself gradually built up, Ian lost his usual composure once more and spoke to the professor.
“If it was like that, wouldn’t you have to have been forced to take the medicine? Like that, before you fall like that.”
“So you got it right now.”
“You’re late!”
“Seriously. Actually, because I don’t know. Originally, you should come on your own. It’s not just words. Just as it is natural for a submerged person to come to the surface when he is out of breath, it is natural for him to act that way. It’s not a matter of being patient just because you’re patient.”
“…”
“Don’t you have the ability to rise above the water? That’s not it. I don’t know if you know it, but I have a record of asking my lab to give me medicine, even if it’s by lightning.”
“… A thunderbolt?”
“There is such a thing. Anyway, I know where the medicine is, and I have the ability to tell you to give me the medicine. Hmm. However.”
“But, but why now? Are you saying I didn’t visit you until I was pushed to the limit like that? According to what you compared, it seems to be a realm of natural instinct as a living being rather than something tolerable. Why…”
“That’s what I’d rather ask.”
At that point, Diaren spoke as if to sentence Ian, who was in confusion.
“Hey, what the hell did you do to that child?”
