Course Name: Basic Skills of a Mage
Professor in charge: Duke Boulliungs Full Professor
Class in charge: Royal, Third
Assignment: Interview with the High Mage
Composition: 1 group of 4, assistant instructor, or upperclassman
————————————————–
The assignment given by Professor Duke was in the form of a group of four.
I don’t know why he, who was in charge of the Royal Class, was also in charge of the 3rd Class lecture, but
Anyway, for this reason, it didn’t seem to matter if Royal and Third were mixed together.
The goal of the assignment was to combine the last day of the week and the weekend to meet and interview one of the court mages in the ecliptic, as befits the subject name.
According to Eliana, this assignment feels like empty for the cadets in the academy.
The problem here is that having a group means that you inevitably have to interact with each other.
The fact that Lane picked me in the same group is bad news for me.
Her intentions in bringing me in were… obvious.
Therefore, I thought about not attending the assignment without permission, but
‘Fleeing ninja… who are the remaining two cadets who will suffer damage?’
Bad memories of the group assignment in Korea came to mind.
Of course, this doesn’t mean you’re going to go alone.
court mage.
No one denies that they are experts in the science of magic.
If the game system has even a bit of conscience left, shouldn’t it give a clue to life extension through the status window when meeting these characters?
Archmage or Sage! Or the Transcendent, Dragon!!
Any person is fine.
If you go to the ecliptic, you might be able to meet outstanding mages.
If you have a chance, ask Floria about the pendant and the curse, which you couldn’t bear to ask.
‘So…should I go or not?’
While I was confused about whether to go there or not, even the surrounding environment began to fit.
-yes? Are you with Arain-nim?
-4… I heard it’s a group of 4! Me too… With Hayu!
Declaration of participation in the war between Floria and the saintess.
Eliana’s backsliding continued.
-Um… There’s a court mage I know, I’ll introduce you to him.
It was because of her patronage, not her patronage, that she might have noticed this situation.
-I’ll tell Arain the same. Wouldn’t it be fine if we included you guys in the same group?
– Wow, great!
-Thank you!
– Oh, you’ll also need a guide. As a senior, I could personally accompany you…
‘this…’
As if they had expected everything, the saintess and Floria were swept away by the unreserved momentum.
Eliana is always proactive and helpful.
something is unpleasant
It’s a bad habit to be suspicious of others, but it’s always oddly well-timed…
But now it’s hard to find a reason to refuse.
“ha……”
After four days like that, we decided to set out.
.
.
.
The central restaurant of Lachesis Academy.
After meeting Eliana, me, Floria, and the saintess are enjoying a late lunch.
“I’m so glad you went to the imperial capital with Hayu!”
“…hahahaha.”
Floria was very excited about this assignment.
Also, the saintess didn’t show it, but at first glance, she seemed happy.
Floria is an aristocrat, so she must have been to the imperial capital a few times.
However, since me and the saintess are the citizens and agents, respectively, the procedure for obtaining permission to tour the ecliptic is difficult, so the ecliptic is completely new.
To calm the atmosphere, I first swallowed the food in my mouth and politely said a word.
“Lady Arain is also accompanying us. Do you know both of them? Please refrain from sudden actions…”
At that time, Floria rather shouted at me.
“Hayu-nim, you have to restrain yourself! Already this woman, that woman, how many… Whoops!”
I unconsciously covered her mouth.
-……?
There was silence around Floria’s bright joke for a moment.
And the hand holding the saintess’s knife stopped in the air.
“…Hayau-san..?”
The slightly hollow voice is terrifying.
The saintess would not know what kind of relationship I have with Floria.
You may not think that we are close enough to joke.
“F, Floria, what do you mean?”
She asked Floria in a nervous voice, and I hurriedly changed the subject.
“now. Anyway, prepare your luggage well… We’ll get together on time!”
“Hayu-nim is also true! How many times do you say that!”
“hahahaha…”
As we filmed the situational drama, the saintess clung to it as if she was indignant.
“What, what? Floria? Mr Hayu? Let me know too!”
“…hahahaha.”
Misunderstandings from ancient times are such a terrible law.
Unfortunately, the ecliptic has only eyes to see, so in order to avoid misunderstandings, you will have to act like Rain’s servant in certain situations.
‘I can only sigh…’
The documents to approve our entry and exit have already been handed over to the Imperial Immigration Office, and they say that they cannot be overturned. Can not help it.
‘I can’t believe… what will happen…’
Let’s do our homework as quickly as possible and come back.
It was just this thought.
And this will be for the best.

[D-16]…
[D-15]…
[D-14]……
The time given in a day is fair to everyone.
Even if nothing special happens, the count of my destiny passes without a clue.
3 days passed like that. Finally, tomorrow is a field experience.
Today, I sit on the stone steps in the sacred coffin and wait for the saintess.
-Looking at him, isn’t he handsome?
-It’s not my style, but I think it’s like that.
Cadets in clerical uniforms pass in front of me and whisper.
‘It’s always been the center of events…’
At first, I almost hid and waited, fearing that others would be uncomfortable, but now my reputation has risen somehow thanks to the saintess’ appeal.
In other words, the face is enough to carry around.
-Wheein…
Gradually the wind becomes chilly.
I don’t know if there is autumn due to the nature of this world, but I have a lot of thoughts like autumn.
-♪♩
Suddenly, a whistle comes out. Of course, it is not leisurely waiting for death while blowing a whistle.
For several days, I went to the central library and worked tirelessly to find the clue to this curse.
‘I didn’t have much income…’
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a book related to this curse, which is like a game system.
[※Requirements: Magic: 50, Spirit: 30 or more]
In addition, all the magic books in the library had high requirements.
If I could somehow buy time, the Archmage would be just fine.
‘Remaining Seven Deadly Sins…’
——————————-
Remaining Seven Deadly Sins: 22
Strength: 10
Endurance (Mental Power): 20
Intellect: 10
mana: 20
Flexible: 10
Luck: 10
——————————-
22 points. I need to invest in something…
I didn’t give out the points because I thought I might find something in the library.
Since that day, since Lane hadn’t called me recently or run into me by chance, there was no way to get the Seven Deadly Sins score.
and……
[Residual Blood: 111]
It was the amount of blood collected in 3 days just by trying things out.
I took a picture of the softness to show this recovery speed…
So, should I take more shots? not.
What you really need in this case is luck.
Because I am the closest person to the most pitiful person in the world.
Like buying a lottery ticket. desperately.
’10 points for luck…’
[※ Luck 10 -> 20 Completion]
[Luck increases to level 3]
[Lady Luck smiles on you]
[You can acquire hidden skills among blood magic skills]
[※]
Did the tooltip… change?
[※Precautions]
[Applicable only when 30 seconds pass in the blood magic skill selection window and no skill is selected.]
Precautions are the same as any other.
‘…I have no choice but to aim for the hidden skill…’
Even in the original world, he wasn’t the type to like gambling.
I have lived a boring life without drinking, smoking, gambling, or coffee.
Rather fortunately.
In this world, things were deliberately forbidden.
‘And 10 points for magic…’
[※ HP 20 -> 30 Completion]
[Blood Magic – Apprenticeship -> Blood Magic – Skill]
[Up to 40 mana points]
[Random skill has been created]
[※You can choose one of the 3 random skills]
[※ Unselected skills may reappear later]
[※If you don’t choose within 30 seconds, it will be selected randomly]
Same here.
And wait 30 seconds.
– Tiring.
A list of skills appears.
——————————-
[Vampire (Magical)-Active]
In proportion to the amount of blood used…

——————————-
done. I clear the status window. It’s something you have to leave to fate anyway.
“please…!”
You are also not qualified to pray. Because I’m not a priest…
Of course, I don’t think that my twisted life will be solved with just one skill.
It’s sad, but it must be hard to come up with artificial productions that give me the skills I need exquisitely.
‘…but still, it’s a mess. no way?’
If you expect too much, you will be disappointed…
[Time remaining until selection is complete: 23 seconds]
[D-14]
Now I eat as much as I want, and no one notices.
It’s the freedom I’ve been longing for, but funny enough, I’m stuck in one of the numbers on the status window.
I am being pressured day by day by the count that drops by one without missing a single day.
As of now, everything is futile and hopeless.
In fact, the more I think about it, the sadder and more afraid I am.
But at that time, you should try to struggle a little more and have a good time.
‘Five.’
I could see the saintess coming out of the coffin of divinity in the distance.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a priest wearing a priest’s uniform.
She looked around as if looking for me.
‘Prissy…’
Maybe I’m forcing the saintess as the reason for the rest of my life.
It felt too difficult to make a daily schedule on my own, perhaps because it was the routine of a slave learned for 10 years.
Right now today, since she is a saint, of course she has to take a lecture on divine magic.
I just fixed my routine on her with this fact.
That’s how I took classes that didn’t mean anything to me, waited for the saintess, and ate together…
Can I just do this for the remaining two weeks?
‘I do not know.’
The saintess’ study period at the academy is said to be limited to this semester.
You’ll have to go to the academy for about two months without me.
You said you wouldn’t live for only me, so you’ll persevere.
It eases my mind a little.
“Miss Hayu!”
Her voice is nice to hear. He smiled and waved his hand as if he had noticed me.
And the moment I get up to respond…
.
.
.
– Dororong!
[Complete selection]
The first sound effect I heard resonated throughout my body.
