I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

242.Fake Grimoire (6)

[Worship.]

“…Shut up.”

[Worship.]

“It’s noisy…”

[Worship.]

“Shut up…”

Blood flowed from Bella’s chewed lips, covered in a blanket. Bloodshot eyes wandered in empty space without focus.

As if someone had handed her some of her sweet fruit her to her her, the book on the desk in her her room her she whispered her all of her her her her knowledge her to her her her her.

From the answers to the questions she wants to know she has to secret knowledge that is not easily known. Bella, thirsting for her knowledge, consumed it greedily.

But before she accepted the knowledge, she should have thought.

No knowledge can be obtained for free.

[Perform prayer.]

“Prayer…Damn prayer…”

The beautiful woman with a fierce look slowly got up and sat down on the bed. At the end of her gaze after removing the blanket, there was a magic book with an eye in the middle of its cover.

“If you pray… It’s okay… “

Clasping her hands together, folding her fingers, closing her eyes. Lowers her head at an angle

[Remember me.]

“I offer up my prayers… *@(!#This is you…”

In a quiet room, a small prayer that no one could hear was scattered in the wind.

But that was enough.

Because ears were not needed to hear prayer.

————————————

“…There is a sparring session for the magic combat lecture in three days.”

“Is that so?”

“I will make arrangements in advance so that you can observe. It’s not that strange to observe a magic battle sparring. Just in case, we can invite a few more people to observe and remove as much suspicion as possible about you.”

“Thank you.”

It’s a couplet.

I never thought I would go see something like this in a stat-raising event in a game. I couldn’t help but make a complex expression of subtle excitement and worry about something unknown.

Principal Merlin must have felt like I was making an expression of fatigue, so he patted my shoulder and spoke.

“I didn’t know this old man could be so helpful. “How on earth does this work?”

“Principal… “

“Hmm? “What?”

Should I talk about foreign media?

But, is it okay to say it?

I don’t have a lot of knowledge about foreign media, but at least I know that I shouldn’t talk about foreign media carelessly.

At least in the games I played, NPCs who went crazy while trying to confirm the existence of foreign powers would appear. Most of the foreign media are referring to the Cthulhu series, so there was a high probability that it would be similar in this worldview.

Then…Just seeing or hearing it would cause mental problems.

There is no guarantee what will happen if you hand over information to Principal Merlin, the greatest wizard on the continent.

For now, I’m fine, but the exact reason for that isn’t clear.

I quietly shook my head.

“It’s nothing.”

[What, don’t say anything?]

Maybe we’ll have a chance to talk someday. Right now… We can’t put our biggest helper on the test bench in the face of unknown danger. I looked as apologetic as possible and shook my head at Principal Merlin, who had a questioning look on his face.

“…I believe there is a reason why you don’t speak up. At least the person I saw was that kind of person. Still, will you tell me someday?”

“I will let you know when the questions are resolved to some extent.”

“…Okay. See you later then.”

I leave the principal’s office. I don’t feel any strange energy like last time. I thought about my destination for a while and decided on the magic department.

Bella may have already gone home, but she traces her she hasn’t disappeared yet.

“Rue. If you feel any strange magical power, tell me right away.”

[Of course.]

I’m glad I got this guy. I don’t know much, but I can trace the supposed magical power of foreign powers, and having someone to discuss things that are difficult to talk to others helps with mental and physical stability.

[Hmm…I can’t feel anything. At this point, I wonder if she is intentionally hiding it.]

It would be quicker to trace Bella’s her day her her her her. I left the main building and made my way to the Faculty of Magic. Fortunately, the Faculty of Magic was not that far from the main building.

“Rue. Can you clearly feel even a small trace?”

[What if I get closer?]

So, do we need to search through it all? I quietly looked at the main entrance to the Faculty of Magic. Gradually, all the students left and the building became quiet with only a few students and professors remaining.

I grabbed the handle and pulled the door open. The door opened without any resistance. The chilly spring breeze, which has not yet gone away, is sucked into the building. I carefully stepped into the building.

“Do you feel anything?”

[Uhm…There isn’t one?]

I guess so.

First, let’s take a look around from the first floor. I walked around the first floor as if I was taking a walk. Since we went through each classroom one by one, it took about 30 minutes just to go around the first floor.

“Do you feel anything?”

[Hmm… I don’t think there is one.]

So it’s the second floor?

I quietly moved to the second floor through the central staircase.

There was a small hint of popularity on the second floor.

Are there any students still studying? Likewise, as I quietly continued my search, I detected a small sense of strangeness in the classroom at the far right of the second floor.

[It’s faint, but this magic power… I don’t know who it is, but it looks like magic power was used here?]

I carefully looked at the classroom desk. There was nothing unusual, but if magical power had been used here, there would have been other traces. I searched everywhere, from the chair to under the desk, trying to find clues.

However, no plausible clues were found.

It would be nice to know who sits here. It would be easier if we could install something like CCTV, but unfortunately, there was no such magic.

It might be possible with tracking magic, but… I cleaned up the mess around my desk and looked at the surrounding terrain.

Unfortunately, it is a rather empty area to hide and see, so the plan to hide and check was discarded.

I decided to search the remaining floors as well.

There were still two more floors left. But the only thing that remained as I walked up to the 4th floor was that classroom. I returned to the classroom on the second floor, looked at the sunset, and turned around.

It seemed like I had to go to the principal’s office again.

Without hesitation, I turned around and headed to the principal’s office.

Fortunately, the lights were still on in the principal’s office. When I knocked, I heard a voice telling me to come in, so I opened the door and made eye contact with the principal again two hours later.

“Hey, what’s going on at this hour? Did you leave something behind?”

“I found traces. “I think I need the principal’s help.”

“Hoo.”

“Could you use tracking magic?”

“Are you talking about me?”

“Because there are traces left in the classroom on the second floor. “I want to cast a tracking spell there.”

“Hmm… But you. As you know, we don’t have fixed seats. There is no guarantee that the owner of that magical power will sit in the same seat.”

“But it’s still better than not doing anything. Even in a classroom where seats are not assigned, aren’t there students who prefer to sit in the same seat?

If you possess that kind of magical power, other students may unconsciously be reluctant to sit down.”

“What you say makes sense. Then let’s go right away.”

Principal Merlin and I immediately installed a tracking spell in a corner of the classroom on the second floor of the Faculty of Magic. We had our last conversation there.

“I hope it is found as soon as possible. “I can’t sleep at all because I think the students might be harmed.”

“It will be found soon.”

If possible, I plan to lurk near the classroom on the second floor.

First of all, I have to visit next week first…

If possible, I would like to meet Bella before the visit, but since I had no reason to meet her, it was still too much to approach hastily.

“Then you can go in too. “Isn’t it already late at night?”

“All right. Then, I’ll see you on Monday.”

I parted ways with Principal Merlin and headed to Yeomyeonggwan.

—————

“Elisa. Is it okay for a moment?”

“Yes, yes…”

After the meal was over, I quietly took Elisa to the front of my room. Since we were planning to exchange information briefly, we decided that there was no need to go to Elisa’s room

My room is on the road to Elisha’s room.

“Did you notice anything suspicious about Bella?”

“Uh…”

Elisha wiggled her small, white hands and lowered her head with a worried face, then she spoke to me as if she had remembered something.

“Joe, her face looked a little tired. It’s like I didn’t sleep well… “

“Hmm.”

That alone isn’t much of a clue. There can be many reasons for being tired.

“Well done Elisa. You can go back to your room now.”

“Hey, over there… “

When I timidly felt the hand her holding the sleeve of my clothes as I was about to go back to the room, I looked at Elisa. Elisa hesitated as if she was about to say something, then opened her mouth.

“Well, wow, I have a sparring match on Monday…My, my, I…”

“Me?”

“Well, I got to spar with Miss Bella…”

…This is unexpected news.

In response to the information that I couldn’t tell whether it was an opportunity or a crisis, I placed my hand on Elisa’s shoulder and said,

“I wish you could tell me that story in detail.”
