My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well - My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well chapter 51
51 – If we remain friends (2)
-Your dad was trash.
since when
It was something my mother used to say every night when she drank.
When I was young, I genuinely believed in those words.
As she slowly grew older, Ruen learned that the opposite sentence was true.
Mom said, “Every day is far away” and brought a new man into the house.
An unpleasant sound that did not consider Ruen rang through the house every night.
Thanks to this, even at a young age, Ruen was able to clearly recognize that the cause of the family’s destruction was her mother.
– Isn’t that funny? Polygamy is allowed, but polygamy is not possible.
There were two evils in those words of my mother, who used to be sweet as a habit.
The fact that polygamy is allowed only for nobles, not for commoners.
The reason Dad left Mom wasn’t just because he cheated… It was because I realized that my mom didn’t love my dad.
It was not a case of her mother coming to like many men purely out of overflowing love.

Just leave your body to the emotions of the moment.
She was just a mean woman who wanted love driven by her body.
with those dirty lies.
Having experienced shameless excuses since childhood.
Ruen came to judge people with her own rigid standards.

Just by looking at his eyes, I was able to guess his intentions.
Whether this person comes to you out of pure good will,
Are you approaching with unpleasant intentions?
do you lie,
Are you telling a little truth overlaid on a lie?
Even just by looking into your eyes,
Or even just chatting for a while.
I could understand his intentions and purpose.
… And that.
It was the decisive reason why Ruen made himself a loner.
From childhood in a divorced family to now as an adult.
No one approached Ruen with pure intentions.
All of them approached because of their appearance, or hid their feelings of envy about them.
Ruen keeps away from them without a word…
Naturally, I had no choice but to be alone.
“Louen! let’s go eat!”
… only one.
You shook hands saying you wanted to be friends,
Except for this innocent man.
Ruen looked at the man who had come close.
Red eyes with messy silver hair.
Because of his tall stature, he had to look up to make eye contact.
A person who always has a drowsy face, but sometimes smiles like an idiot like this.
Become friends for the first time in your life…
The person who introduced me to another friend.
It was his friend, Sacher Philip.
Ruen looked around him for a while and asked.
“… What about Schnika?”
“I heard that you have to train for some final exams today, so you went to the gymnasium? I think the two of us should eat today.”
at that point.
Ruen’s body stopped for a moment.
“… two people?”
“uh. Let’s eat delicious food after a long time. I will buy it for you.”
“… … .”
We, the two of us, delicious food.
Ordinary words that you wouldn’t normally hear.
For some reason today.
It came with a thud and a loud sound, and hit Ruen’s ear.
“The anti-venom patent fees came in earnest, and your friend has become quite wealthy. hehehe, what do you want to eat? I’ll buy you everything you really want to eat today… !!”
“… … .”
Sacher seemed to keep saying something, but Luen was already in a situation where he couldn’t answer.
We, the two of us, delicious food.
I can’t hear anything else.

Just these three words stuck in my head like lightning, and I didn’t think of getting out.
“… … Luen. Ruen!”
Suddenly, Luen came to his senses when he heard a voice calling him.
Sacher was looking at her with a puzzled face in front of her.
“What are you thinking about? Why are you out of your mind?”
It seemed that no matter what I asked, there was no answer.
Ruen shook his head from side to side.
Lost in his own thoughts, he seemed to have not heard his voice for a moment.
“… Nothing.”
“Isn’t it nothing? What are you worried about?”
“… doesn’t exist.”
I tried hard to deny it.
In fact, Luen knew that he had something similar to his worries these days.
-Louen. Have you ever seen fireworks?
Open the door of your heart that was firmly closed.
The day he confided in his friend about his uncomfortable past.
Sacher, who heard all of this,
didn’t say anything
I’ve been struggling…
It must have been hard…
Let’s forget everything and do our best… .
such common words.
He didn’t bring out any consolation that Ruen had expected.
He didn’t send a pitying glance or cheap sympathy.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just with a bright smile as usual.
With the pure face of the time when he said to be friends with himself.
never seen before,
A small fireworks display was shown.
Although small, fireworks embroidered a corner of the sky beautifully.
Staring blankly at those flames…
For the first time in her life, Ruen thought that something was beautiful.
and after that day.
in rouen,
Something has changed.
To be precise, his mindset toward Sacher has changed slightly.
Sachere, no different from usual.
But every time he saw him, Ruen’s heart felt uncomfortable.
It felt like something was pounding in the back of my chest, and it was difficult to look at him for as long as before.
I was worried when he said he was leaving for a dangerous gate exploration, and relieved when he returned safely.
I wondered what he was doing when he was out of sight, and I couldn’t concentrate well when we were in class together.
Among those unknown phenomena,
What was the strangest thing.
In a recent <Calligraphy> class, it was when Delia, a junior, brought up his story.
– Create phrases to deliver to your loved ones.
That Sacher was the important person Delia would deliver the message to.
For some reason, Luen continued to feel uncomfortable.
So without her knowledge.
I kept tackling Delia’s calligraphy and saying to myself, “I don’t like it.”
‘… Why did you say that?’
In fact, even Luen didn’t know the exact reason for that.
However, I knew that I showed an ugly side that I shouldn’t show to my juniors.
I’ll have to apologize to Delia for that someday.
Luen thought so.
‘Shunika… .’
And this uncomfortable mind that even you don’t know.
This worry that has been bothering me lately.
The only thing that could solve this, I thought, was Schnika.
If it’s Shunica, who’s a third party but also her only two friends.
And, unlike her, if she is more adept at human relationships, Schnika.
I’m sure you can clearly solve this problem.
Thinking so, Ruen nodded slightly.
“… … Ruen!”
“… ?”
But again, Sacher was calling out loud in front of his eyes.
“What do you keep thinking about like that? Let’s choose the menu.”
“ah… .”
“What should we eat? steak? pasta? Or seafood?”
Luen looked at him with a blank face.
We, the two of us, delicious food.
The first thing that confused Luen.
The silent attack was not yet over.

The desk in the professor’s office is always covered with papers, but today, letters instead of bundles of papers took the place.
Lafury Melline picked out one of the letters that filled the desk and took it out.
<Imperial Alchemy Society invitation letter>
Professor Lafury Melline. hello?
I am Yenitail Ferian, vice president of the Aphelice Imperial Alchemy Society.
I think I met you as an undergraduate when I was a professor at the academy…
As an alchemist, I also feel admiration and great that you have completed both the undergraduate and research institutes and are holding a professorship.
It’s no different that I’m sending you a letter like this…
On the occasion of the ‘Alchemist’s Day’ this weekend, I would like to invite you and your student assistant Sacher Philip, an undergraduate student, to the Imperial Alchemy Society.
[Anti-Venom], which you and Sacher’s undergraduate students recently succeeded in inventing, was not only known as an all-around antidote, but also set an example for many alchemists with its sophisticated circuit response and meticulous manufacturing process.
Even if you’ve read the patent papers, many members and alchemists from around the world are hoping to hear additional explanations from you and Sacher’s undergraduates.
Therefore, the Imperial Alchemy Society would like to open a special invitation lecture on [Anti-Venom] and invite you and Sacher undergraduates to the conference.
If possible, I would appreciate it if you could light up the place for a short time and tell the academic members about the opinions of the two of you on the production of magic tools.
The lecture time is planned for about 3 hours, and if you respond to the invitation, we promise you enough examples worthy of your prestige.
I hope to receive a positive reply.
thank you
– Vice President of the Imperial Alchemy Society, Yenitail Ferian.
After Melaine read the entire letter, she folded it neatly.
Then, he looked at his teaching assistant who was dozing on one side of the professor’s room.
“Sacher.”
“Yes, yes!!”
As if he hadn’t slept at all.
Sacher answered with an exaggerated voice.
Melin’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
“I guess you haven’t slept all night.”
I don’t know when I’m listening to lectures, but when I’m working in the professor’s office, I’m a sacher who doesn’t doze off.
The fact that he was dozing off was proof that he didn’t get much sleep last night.
“yes… Developing some new products… sorry.”
“Okay. By the way, are you okay on the weekend?”
“It’s the weekend… ?”
Sachere made a puzzled face, thought for a moment, and replied.
“There was a dungeon exploration as a substitute assignment for the final term, so I was going to schedule one day out of two days on the weekend… Why?”
“hmm.”
Melaine threw the letter she was holding at him.
“Can you postpone that assignment to Sunday? On Saturday, the Imperial Alchemy Society invited you and me to give a special lecture.”
“Yeah?!”
Sacher was startled and opened the letter.
This Saturday is the ‘Alchemist’s Day’, which only happens once a year.
Along with the <Magic Tool Festival> in the second half of the year, it was the most prestigious event of the year, and it was an important event that received all the attention of alchemists at once.
The place where the event is held changes every year, but this year’s place is the Apellice Imperial Alchemy Society.
Accordingly, many alchemists on the continent were looking for the empire one after another.
“and… It’s real… .”
In other words, the Imperial Alchemy Society invited the academy’s new professor and sophomore undergraduate students as special lecturers to the most important continental event held only twice a year.
