Academy’s Second Seat - Academy’s Second Seat chapter 86

The prophecy of the saint.

It was not, in fact, a prophecy of the future.

The future is a variable that can be changed at any time by any person.

However, the prophecy of the saint is not variable.

When a saint says something is going to happen, it will happen unconditionally.

In fact, her words are the result.

A word that determines what will happen.

No matter how hard we struggle, in the end it happens.

Therefore, the saint does not tell the cause of the prophesied event.

Because somehow he knew what he had seen would happen.

And the saint does not say what will happen as a result.

The only thing the saint knows is that something will happen.

So, on purpose, the saint gathered together and said.

watch out for someone

watch out for something

Because I didn’t know how or under what circumstances it would happen.

And I didn’t know what kind of change it would bring.

However, one thing was certain.

A prophecy made by a saint.

That’s a prophecy about Priscilla’s runaway.

I don’t know what scene the saint saw, but the prophecy to be made on Homecoming Day was a prophecy related to Priscilla’s runaway.

So I had to prepare for the Priscilla runaway.

“Priscilla will run rampant someday.”

I said, looking at Lie and Luna alternately.

“I don’t know if it will be today, tomorrow, or a year, but it will happen.”

“that… … So what? If the spirits run rampant… … .”

Luna said confused.

“How do you know that?”

Lee frowned and asked.

“Astina-senpai received an oracle on Homecoming Day.”

When I said that, Lee could not object again.

“Well, first I’ll prepare for that.”

“But, if the spirits run rampant…”

Luna looked at me with a worried face.

It was the same with Lee.

These two probably know each other well.

The story of a spirit that ran rampant and the user died was a more famous story than I thought.

However… … .

“Even if the spirits run rampant, there is a way for the user to survive.”

I said reassuringly to both of them.

This precedent has not yet been well established in academia, but I roughly knew how.

Serena also ran into Priscilla in the game and survived.

The method was simpler than I thought.

“When a spirit runs rampant, you can reverse summon it and calm the user’s mana.”

“It’s a problem because it can’t be done.”

Lee frowned and said.

What she said wasn’t wrong.

“right. The problem is that it is impossible.”

A situation in which the spirits run wild.

This is similar to the mana runaway that Luna caused in the library.

The difference is that the mana runaway is just a random flow of the user’s mana, so only the user has to calm it down, but the spirit runaway has to calm both the user and the spirit.

“So, I’m going to start preparing from now on.”

I pointed to the book in front of me.

There were written magic formulas related to mana control and mental purification.

Magic that can control the runaway of spirits.

However, this was only a theory.

Not a proper study, just a heart attack.

Could it be done like this? It was a book that raised questions.

So, I couldn’t do this on my own.

If you study alone, it will take too long.

It was not something I could do at my level to prove by myself that this theory holds true through several experiments.

“Lee, can you help Luna?”

When I said that, they both smiled broadly.

“It will be fun.”

“If Rudy asks for help, of course you should!”

That’s how we started our research.

next day.

A letter flew to me.

“Brother… … The letter?”

I tilted my head at the sudden letter.

The name written exactly on the letter.

Ian Astria.

I opened the letter and read what was written inside.

Most of the noise was there.

I was just asking about how I’m not interested.

As I read it roughly and scrolled down, the main body was written below.

“Come back to the family… … ?”

It was also a call to come to the center rather than the main house.

Ian is curious about how I’m doing, so I told him to stop by the center once during vacation.

“Never go… … .”

The home of the Astrian family and the mansion in the center were completely different.

The mansion in the capital is where Ian Astria stays.

It was close to the dormitory where we stayed while we were dealing with various things in the capital.

And the Astrian family, where my father was, was the Astrian estate, that is, the hometown.

If you go to the capital, it is said that Ian and I are alone, but if we went, we wouldn’t be able to see anything good.

Now is the time for Ian to have a lot of doubts about me.

Since Homecoming Day, information about me has been spread across all empires.

You stopped Harpel, you stopped Serena, you went on to win the academy, and this time you stopped Vice-Chancellor Oliver and the Freds.

My deeds were enough to annoy Ian.

So, if I went to a place where only Ian was, I would have suffered harm, and there was no benefit at all.

After thinking for a while, I made a decision.

“I should just say I didn’t receive the letter.”

If I reply that I won’t go, Ian will try to get me into the capital in some way.

In that case, it would have been more time-consuming to not send a reply and not show any response.

When the vacation was over, and the letter came again, I had to use the excuse that I couldn’t go because the semester started soon.

The school year is about to start, but Ian can’t do anything.

bang bang.

That’s when I heard a knock on my door.

“Okay, I’ll open it.”

I said, throwing the letter into the trash.

And when I opened the door, I saw Rie holding a bunch of books.

Luna behind him was also holding various books and a stack of papers.

Lee grumbled with a frown.

“Oh, that’s heavy.”

“Good work.”

I piled up the materials that Luna and Rie had brought in one by one in the corner of the room.

Lie looked around my room and opened her mouth.

“By the way, wouldn’t it be better to get a room? Do I have to do it in your room?”

“You don’t have to. If you get a room outside the academy, there are too many problems.”

From today, we decided to start a proper research.

The place where I do that kind of research is my room.

There was no problem with the large size of the room, even if there were three people, and since it is my room, it can be treated as it is, so I decided that way.

Originally, I thought about getting a laboratory in the academy or a room outside the academy, but I shook my head.

I didn’t like the fact that the materials we studied could leak out, and the cost of getting a room was a bit pricey.

Even if the money was overflowing, there was no reason to spend money that did not have to be used.

“Then shall we begin?”

We started pasting the magic circles, which will become the frame we made yesterday, one by one on the wall.

what we talked about yesterday.

We made two plans.

One way to stop the spirits.

It is a way of controlling the spirits by targeting Priscilla’s weakness and the characteristics of a spirit.

Lee decided to take over this.

Lee knows the spirits best among us, so it seemed right for him to take over this aspect.

And another expression to control my mind and mana.

Luna decided to take over this.

Luna creates a magic circle to hold on to the spirit that will collapse and calm the mana when I run wild.

As Luna and Li are each in charge of these two, I help them both.

To be honest, I really wanted to take on one side, but I couldn’t.

Rather, my help could be poison.

No matter how you create a magic circle, if there is a part of the usage or theory that only I know about, there is a big problem.

If I go crazy, I can’t help these two.

I’m going to lose my mind

Then, both Luna and Lee must stop me.

However, blocking me may cause problems with the magic circle.

Then the two had to repair and replace the magic circle.

At that time, with the information only I knew, Lie and Luna could not change the magic circle.

So I was only helping them, not the main.

That’s how we started our research.

“Rudy, bring me that.”

“Uh, okay.”

At Rie’s words, I moved as instructed.

However, something was strange.

“Rudy! Can you help me with this?”

“Yeah, can I do this?”

Even at Luna’s request, she immediately moved and helped.

Slowly something… … .

“Rudy. Please rub my shoulder.”

said Lee.

“Rudy! Can I get you some hot tea?”

said Luna.

“Rudy.”

“Rudy!”

Something… … It felt like electricity was splattering between Lie and Luna.

To be honest, helping with the little things wasn’t a problem… … It felt like I was deliberately creating or looking for something.

“… … .”

Anyway, since I asked for help, I just did what the two of them told me to do.

“Rudy.”

“Rudy!”

“… … .”

@

The center of the empire, the imperial castle.

The emperor walked slowly down the hallway and looked at the other side of the Imperial Castle.

It was originally the building where the first princess, Rie, stayed.

However, there were only users in the building and there was no owner.

Seeing this, the emperor asked the servant behind him.

“Has Lee not come back yet?”

“yes… … Princess Li said that there is something the academy is researching right now, so she will come slowly.”

“Hmm… … Shouldn’t you come anyway?”

The emperor said so and looked up at the sky.

Small snowflakes were seen falling from the sky one by one.

Snowflakes fell on the garden, and small clothes began to pile up.

“It’s snowing now… … .”

The emperor brushed his beard.

“The more time passes, the more snow it will snow, so call me to come before that.”

“Yes. All right.”

As the crowd answered, a voice came from behind.

“Isn’t your sister going to get along well?”

A voice similar to Lee.

However, unlike Li, who has a mature and calm voice, it was a bright and lively voice.

The emperor turned his head and looked behind him.

“Heh heh, are you here?”

That person was the second princess of the Empire, Lie’s younger sister, Uni von Listonia.

“I am by your side.”

Yuni smiled softly and walked up to the emperor and said,

The emperor smiled and stroked his hair as if he was cute like that.

“Now, if I go to the Unido Academy, what kind of fun will this father have?”

“Even if you go to the academy, you can often come to the center.”

Yuni said it was nothing.

However, it was nonsense to come to the center frequently while following the academy schedule.

“Thank you for the words.”

The emperor looked at Yuni and smiled warmly.

Yuni looked at the emperor’s face and grinned.
