62 – Fake Confession

“No.”

A cold voice, as if not a single particle of emotion was mixed with it.

A silver-haired female professor with eyes as transparent as her voice answered without even turning her head. Her professor’s eyes are on a chemical experiment tool that could be used in a perfumery.

“Zu, an immediate answer~?”

Ellie was beside her, making her fuss.

Well, that’s what I expected. No, to be precise, the ‘scheduled’ sea.

“Professor Mercu! Could you please think again!? The professor has heard that there is no circle for her advisor….”

“Waste of time. Abomination.”

Eli was at a loss for words when her professor Sylvie articulated her thoughts in just two words. Even if Ellie’s father, a master of negotiation, came, it would be difficult to break through that impregnable castle.

Sylvie Mercu

A professor of alchemy at the Academy, her only interest is research. She is so serious about her studies that she often skips classes.

Originally, she was meant to be in the Mage Tower, not the academy, but Dean Grasse had difficulty recruiting her. Because when it comes to alchemy, it’s hard to find anyone more knowledgeable than she is. In the academy that guarantees the best education, Professor Sylvie was a necessary talent.

“Ugh… ! Mr John. What should I do? Seriously, he’s a professor who doesn’t seem to have a chance to go through a needle!”

“I mean. A professor like that serves as our circle advisor? Doesn’t that seem unlikely?”

Eli and Sierra both gave negative comments. It’s a valid opinion at first glance, but there are ways to do it all.

Inviting an advisor to the academy ‘circle establishment’ event is very important. This is because the operation policy of the circle differs depending on which professors are invited.

There are two professors recommended in Strategy.

One is Professor Joseph Kerr, the vice dean of the Department of Swordsmanship, and the other is Professor Sylvie Mercu, the Professor of Alchemy.

If you invite Professor Joseph Kerr, you can easily pull in support from the academy. Because Professor Joseph is well-liked and reputed among professors, he can be of help in many ways. He also recommends this route if you want to grow quickly.

However, being able to receive a lot of support inevitably comes with corresponding restrictions. Professor Joseph is not a good choice if you want to expand the range of circle activities.

Professor Sylvie is the opposite of Professor Joseph. It’s hard to imagine the academy’s support if Professor Sylvie is invited as an advisor, as she only puts her name on papers like a ghost member. However, free circle activities are guaranteed. It’s because we don’t care if we stir-fry each other.

‘Professor Sylvie is better when I think about the future.’

It was a choice that looked into the future when I set Professor Sylvie as an advisor. The Circle will eventually become my force. In order to freely increase the power, it is good to have as few touches as possible on the top.

“Professor.”

Even when I talked to Professor Sylvie, the professor didn’t budge. He is concentrating while mixing liquids in a flask. It is a similar event to when Professor Sylvie was invited as an advisor in the original work.

‘In that case, I should follow the original route.’

Professor Sylvie’s greatest interest is research. In other words, in order to win her professor’s favor, she just needs to bring something that helps her with her research.

“I heard that you are doing research on golems recently.”

When I brought up the topic of research, the professor, who had been concentrating, slightly raised her face. It’s still expressionless, but there seems to be something annoyed in its eyes. I think her likability has been cut by 3 points.

“Request for eviction.”

Professor Sylvie says that while pointing at the door with her chin.

However, instead of leaving the lab, I continued talking. Something that will definitely catch the professor’s attention.

“Do you need a magma golem core?”

From noble mtl dot com

“……”

After talking that far, the professor put the flask he was experimenting on on the table.

“Magma Golem… ? Is it a monster Do you know Ellie?”

“Ah! This is a monster that rarely appears in the dungeon in District 7, ‘Volcanic Zone’! I heard that the golem core is valuable as a research material because it is different from other golems in general. They said it was not available for sale at the auction house.”

Professor Sylvie looked me up and down and opened her mouth.

“What do you mean?”

“I was wondering if you would accept our request if you brought me the magma golem core.”

“John! The magma golem core is an item that is difficult to secure even for our Janet group…. Are you all right?”

Ellie asked in a worried voice. Professor Sylvie also nodded her head.

“Fake. Not possible.”

“It is not fake. I’ll bring you the real thing. If you bring it, you will serve as an adviser.”

I left the lab without listening to the professor’s answer. In the original work, if you bring an item, you become an advisor professor in the form of clearing the quest. So, you don’t need to hear the answer.

“John. Are you planning to go to the dungeon and get the core of the magma golem?”

“Hey hey… ! It’s a dungeon! ‘Volcanic Zone’ is a dungeon that cannot be taken lightly! Wouldn’t it be a bit difficult for students like us to attack?”

As Ellie said, ‘Volcanic Zone’ is not a dungeon that can be easily conquered at the student level. If it wasn’t me, it wouldn’t be easy for the other two to protect their own lives if they went in there.

“And, it’s not just about entering the dungeon. Isn’t the magma golem a very rare monster? John, did you not know?”

“I knew.”

“Then, why… ?”

“Ellie, don’t bother me. John must have a way!”

Sierra honestly believed in me. After all, I only have Sierra.

“Ugh… ! Something, it seems like something big has happened! I never thought that creating a circle would be so difficult~! After all, nothing is easy in this world.”

Ellie let out a sigh and said that. Well, I’m going to do most of the troublesome things, so I hope I don’t die like that.

“Ughhh… !”

Lir Verse was in deep trouble. From the side, she looked like a midwife throwing up colic, and she also looked like an adolescent schoolgirl in love.

“Ugh… ! She has to meet him again….”

Lir lost in Dalian a few days ago. It’s not real sparring. She was defeated in Sangsang Dalian.

However, imagined couples are also couples. Moreover, she is a much more advantageous battlefield for herself. The defeat from Yohan in Lire was a bitter defeat experienced on the home ground.

When Lire learned swordsmanship under her master, she wasn’t afraid to try again. She was beaten by her master several times, but each time she tried again. Her spirit of challenge is what made Lire what she is today.

So she has to challenge John again. We need to thoroughly analyze the previous defeat and win this time.

However, mysteriously, her steps do not fall. Why?

Are you afraid of losing?

No. Lire has experienced more defeats than victories. Of course, most of them were defeats from Master, but anyway, if Lire was afraid of defeat, she wouldn’t have been able to achieve even half of what she has achieved now.

‘That guy…. Something really bothers me!’

I don’t know why. It’s the first time I’ve felt this way.

John Baker.

A face genius that all female students look up to.

According to rumors, he went out for a drink in the magic building yesterday and received a lot of confessions. Considering the guy’s appearance, it’s not unusual for a commotion like that to happen anytime.

‘It’s strange…. Why is the rumor that he confessed to me so annoying?’

Discomfort of unknown cause.

It’s poking her in Li’s heart, disturbing her thoughts of reuniting with him.

When she closed her eyes, she could clearly recall Lire. The figure of John sharing sum with her self.

The discussion sword shared with Yohan materializes and is reproduced in Lire’s head.

Lir slowly but completely puts pressure on John.

However, Johan nullifies it with a few moves.

The workshop, which comes and goes splendidly like flowers swaying in the spring breeze, meets a turning point with just one move. An amazing divine hand that determines the outcome of a fight unfolds at John’s fingertips.

‘Parring, parrying, parrying, parrying.’

The sparring was still mysterious. You can’t find a future where you can win with any revival. Every future she can imagine predicts her defeat. It looks like he’s playing on his own.

Lire thought that she had no ideal type. She said her life was a life for revenge and she was a life for power. Because she had lived such a life, she built a wall with her love affair. It was because of such childhood experiences that he was not seduced by the handsome face of John.

By the way, if she has her own ideal type.

Isn’t that a man stronger than you?

What appeared with such thoughts was John’s face.

“Aww… ! No! No!”

Lire shook her head to clear her thoughts.

The sound of footsteps was heard in Lire’s ears.

Did they say that even a tiger will come if you tell me? A male student passed in front of Lire as she continued to worry. Just by looking at his back, you can instantly recognize him, this is Johann Baker.

“Hey, hey!”

The moment he saw Yohan’s back, Lire gathered up his courage. It doesn’t suit her own temper to be so hesitant in her first place.

“Huh? Ah, Miss Lire.”

“Ah, ah, ah, hello… ! Good morning!”

“Breakfast? Is it afternoon now?”

“Ah! Mistakes, words came out in vain.”

It’s also strange. Just looking at that guy’s face makes his head feel like a blank sheet of paper. Even a simple greeting is in vain.

What a sloppy woman this would look like.

“Ms. Rir. I read the letter you gave me the other day.”

John pulled out his envelope from within his bosom. A pink envelope sealed with a heart-shaped sticker.

Looking at the envelope, whose contents could be easily guessed just by looking at the outside, Lire swallowed in horror.

“That, that….”

“I never thought Miss Lire would have thought of me that way. I saw this and thought I should give a serious answer.”

What is this man talking about?

The sender of the love letter is not herself, but her roommate Cathy. But why, this guy, does he talk like he wrote a letter?

No way, Cathy.

Did you forget to write your name on the love letter?

No matter how stupid you are….

‘No, if it’s cache, there’s a chance!’

“Ms. Rir. Thank you for confessing to me. Then…. It is the first day from today.”

When Yohan said that one-sidedly, Lire had a strange experience as if his head was covered with fog.

I have to tell you.

Should be returned.

It’s a misunderstanding.

It’s an illusion.

He didn’t confess anything.

However, as if a silence spell had been applied, the words did not come out of his mouth.
