The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Joint Combat Practice (3)

– ‘Penia. ‘You were born with a blessing from God.’

The first person to notice Princess Fenia’s innate insight was her father, Emperor Cloel.

The life of the royal family is a series of endless secret battles and plots. You can never guess that sticky darkness just by looking at the glorious and exalted lives of the royal family revealed to the public.

Therefore, Emperor Cloel’s comment that Princess Fenia’s insight into human beings was a ‘blessing from God’ was wrong.

Her abilities are not some kind of gift from God. It is a sense acquired acquired in order to protect oneself in that dark abyss.

That’s why Princess Fenia was confident in her own abilities.

The two eyes of the prime minister who tried to poison her aunt, the lustful gestures of the duchess who wanted to make her son a member of the royal family, the trembling pupils of the servant who stole the gold watch chain from the bedroom, the anxious steps of the leader who embezzled the knights’ armor maintenance expenses. The jealous gaze of a blood relative who was jealous of Sori’s power, and the trembling voice of a principality spy who disguised himself as a maid and collected information.

Because I knew that there was a dark abyss beneath all the eyes of the imperial family looking up to the princess of noble charity.

And because she lived the life of a noble princess as if she knew nothing, even though she saw through all the dirty intentions of those faces.

“i look forward to.”

Therefore, I had no choice but to look straight at the man who finished preparing for the duel and greeted me politely.

The princess’s sixth sense is already in the realm of the supernatural. If you want to have more intuition than Princess Fenia about the ability to insight into humans, it is literally impossible without using mind reading.

“Ahaha, what is that? Isn’t it Ed Ross Taylor?! You look so haggard after walking around wearing clothes full of jewels!”

“Your frugal look really suits you!”

“You don’t have any magical talent at all, but you’re just pretending. Now, your true colors will be revealed!”

The sound of whispering could be heard all the way up to the duel arena. It seemed like he wanted to shout boos with all his might, but since the princess of a country was standing right there, he was acting relatively calm.

“Yes, please take care of me too.”

The princess lightly lifted her hand and felt the flow of magical power. Conditions were at their peak. Taking good care of one’s physical condition at all times is also an important virtue of a good wizard.

The princess narrowed her eyes and glared at the man.

– ‘Your efforts will definitely be rewarded! Don’t die! hey! Straighten your back! There’s nothing to be embarrassed about!’

– ‘Walk confidently! Well done! The opponent was just a little bad! ‘Don’t get frustrated over this!’

This is a story about a boy who desperately cried out to a boy who was on the verge of failing school, ignoring the princess of a country and passing her by.

At first, I was more surprised by Ed Rothtaylor’s desperation than by the fact that I was ignored.

“Did you hear me yelling at Taily earlier? She’s really harsh too.”

“Ugh. You’re making more of a fuss after you’ve been tormenting me. I wonder if you wanted to make fun of a kid like that who couldn’t even use it.”

“Or maybe I just wanted to seem nice now. Why… cheering on the kid I was bullying? Something like that.”

“Wow, the intention is really shady.”

“You said you were that kind of person in the first place?”

The whispers in the crowd could no longer be called whispers. The whispering reached the ears of the princess who was located far away from the observer’s seat, and there was no way Ed Rosstaylor could not hear it.

But Ed Rothtaylor’s eyes are calm. Just like the Myeonggyeongjisu where not a single drop of water falls, there is no tremor in the pupils.

Reading someone else’s emotions through those eyes is like a piece of cake for Princess Fenia.

Indifference and indifference are probably good.

A familiar feeling. In the first place, Ed Rosstaylor was always like that. The whispers of the crowd mocking him do not leave even a scratch on his heart.

It wasn’t much different from the feeling I had when I met Ed Ross Taylor at camp. If you live in the first place, you will meet many people like that.

There are people who are born with a temperament that is indifferent to everything and is indifferent to what others say.

In any case, the center of your life is yourself. Once a firm belief is ingrained in your heart, you will have the fortitude to not be swayed by the opinions of others.

There were enough people born with that kind of temperament even among first-year students without having to look far.

Lucy Meiril was like that, Lortel the Golden Daughter was like that, and Ziggs, the Spear of Vegetation was like that.

When I thought about it that far, I even felt a sense of relief. Because it was only then that the outline of the person called Ed Rosstaylor seemed to come into focus.

It took a little longer, but in any case, Ed Ross Taylor was also an equal in the princess’s insight. Only with that confidence was I able to stand up.

However, the way he ignored the princess and passed by his words and actions, and

the sight of him wholeheartedly encouraging a first-year student who had tried to fail him with his own hands, made the princess dizzy again.

Once the outline of her inner self is visible and her true identity seems within reach, her words and actions that slip away like a loach again torment the princess.

Was it a shout to mock Taily, who was struggling?

Was it a hypocritical act of trying to launder one’s own past while cheering for Tailley?

If you don’t know the context, you will have no choice but to give weight to the left’s speculations.

However, it was visible to Princess Fenia. The man’s true desperation that he had not shown even once since the entrance exam. I saw that part clearly.

If I had appealed to the princess like I did now when we ran into each other at the camp, my head wouldn’t have hurt so much.

Please don’t expel me. I am truly reflecting. Please be kind to me just this once.

If I had knelt down like that, folded my hands together, and appealed with all my might, I wouldn’t have felt this uncomfortable feeling.

There were so many people who bowed their heads and made desperate appeals in front of the noble and noble princess that they were tripped.

However, he reacted indifferently to his expulsion and continued to maintain such an indifferent attitude even among the numerous students who mocked and jeered him.

What is unnatural about the desperation that comes from the heart of the first-year student who tried to expel him from school when he was frustrated?

“Ed Rosstaylor. You make me dizzy.”

The princess sighed deeply. Is it worth spending this much energy on?

I’m tired of being swayed by his unpredictable inner self.

The other person is just… an excommunicated student.

He is not a corrupt warlord who dreams of overthrowing the imperial family, a corrupt prime minister who embezzles public funds, or a scandalous user who touches the imperial family’s wealth.

Even if he had an inner self that couldn’t even fathom the princess’ insight, what does it matter?

Yes, I finally got a chance to shake it off. Let’s just shake it off with this one duel. In that way, the princess calmed down.

Whatever it is, it is an opportunity to have a cool fight with that unknown man named Ed Rosstaylor.

“I want to bring it to a clear conclusion with this duel.”

It is a world where there are so many unknowns. Still, whatever it is, whether it’s laughing or crying, it’s okay if you have an opportunity to shake it off. Whatever the story is, it is not that important. Ed Rothtaylor It’s not like heaven and earth are going to change just because you can’t guess one thing.

Ed Rosstaylor’s mana amount was already well known. It’s not that great, but the way he naturally controls the magic flowing from his hands shows that he’s not an easy opponent.

In the first place, it was a sparring match between first and second graders. Since their power is asymmetrical, they are restricted from using only basic level magic as a handicap.

Looking at Ed Rosstaylor, who was controlling the flow of magical power while warming up his body, it was possible to infer that he had mastered basic elemental magic countless times. It is unknown to what extent he can use intermediate elemental magic, but he is likely to be sufficiently skilled in at least basic elemental magic.

Princess Fenia’s magical abilities certainly cannot be said to be as overwhelming as Lucy or Lortel.

However, because he was fundamentally hard-working, he did not neglect his magic training.

[Please start sparring now. ]

With the assistant professor’s instructions, Princess Fenia took her stance.

First blow. That’s how you gauge the other person’s courage. Princess Fenia’s specialty, water element magic, is specialized in anomalous attacks.

It is not easy to react individually to the suddenly changing movement of the attack.

“going.”

When Princess Fenia raised her hand, the basic elemental magic ‘water ball’ was implemented.

The mass of water, embodied by the magic power that freely changes its form, was a tricky technique that instantly surprised the enemy’s blind spot and applied great pressure.

Princess Fenia was able to manifest up to five of these weapons at once and attack from all directions. However, in order to gauge the techniques used by the opponent, only one cue ball was implemented.

The elemental magic used by Ed Rothtaylor is wind and fire. How will you accept it?

So, depending on what the opponent does, you change your strategy and fight with all your might, gradually increasing your output.

Let’s shake off that unknown man from our hearts for the last time through a dramatic battle where we can shake everything off with ease while exchanging moves like that. There are so many things to worry about in the world other than that man.

The cue ball thrown with that single thought changed its trajectory and hit Ed Rosstaylor.

Princess Fenia caught it. Ed Rosstaylor’s eyes were clearly following the cue ball’s trajectory. Wind or fire? What to defend with? And once that defense is implemented, what should be the follow-up blow…

-Kwaang!!

However, the cue ball thrown by Fenia hit Ed Rothtaylor in the abdomen.

As it was, Ed Rosstaylor’s body floated in the air for a moment and then rolled on the floor. A billow of dust rose, and Ed Rosstaylor, completely naked, was sitting sprawled on the floor.

“…I lost.”

“I beg your pardon?”

Princess Fenia’s pupils trembled once.

“Khahahaha!”

“Wow, what is that! It’s even more vain than Taily!”

“He pretends to be cool, but then gets kicked out in one fell swoop!”

“Princess Fenia! It was wonderful! It was really refreshing!”

The audience in the audience, who had endured their cheers, clapped and shouted. There were voices in the world rejoicing at the sight of Ed Ross-Taylor, who was like a public enemy, going out in a bold manner.

However, it was clearly visible to Princess Fenia, who was standing across from the duel stand.

Ed Rosstaylor’s eyes were pointed straight at the trajectory until the moment before the princess’s water ball flew away.

It’s not that I couldn’t stop it.

It wasn’t blocked.

“What on earth are you doing now?”

“Thank you for your hard work. I learned a lesson.”

Ed Rosstaylor shook off his clothes and stood up, greeting the princess. Only then did Ed Rosstaylor look directly at the princess.

It was not until this time that Princess Fenia realized.

That man has never made eye contact with the princess ever since he got on this duel stand.

To begin with, he had no interest in this duel.

Princess Fenia felt as if something hot was stuck in her throat and she couldn’t get over it. The uncomfortable feeling that she had tried to shake off after a fight and fight was trying to engulf the princess.

*

Is now the time for a duel or something???

I quickly walked down the duel table at a brisk pace. Even today, the glorious taunts that greeted me were thrown at me. I guess it was quite refreshing to be knocked out by one unsightly spell.

“Taylor, where did this bastard go?”

Everything has a priority and everything is assigned a different level of importance.

When you come into contact with Princess Fenia, it is important to act as carefully as possible so as not to affect the scenario. Princess Fenia is a very important character in this scenario.

However, more important than Princess Fenia is Tailly, the main character of this world.

If Taily completely succumbs to this ordeal and her heart breaks, there will be a fatal flaw in my grand plan of sucking up all the honey I can get and graduating alone.

So you have to do something. No matter how important Princess Fenia is, she cannot be more important than Tailley’s actions.

“Well, anyway, we’ll have to find this bastard first, Tailley.”

Leaving behind the shouts of ridicule, I walked with long strides down the hallway toward the exit of the nail salon. Anyway, the practice is not over yet, but you will just have to blend in well with the crowd of people and get out.

If I can somehow find a way to bring Tailly to her senses, I’ll just make up for the impact on her grades with effort.

I was walking forward with that single thought in mind, but there was another person following behind me.

“Ed Rosstaylor!”

Surprisingly, the Princess Fenia jumped off the duel platform and ran down in a huff. He probably wasn’t very physically fit, but he called me out, leaning against the wall, out of breath.

“Huh? If you come out here without Princess Fenia’s escort…”

I looked back at Princess Fenia with the most confused face in the world.

“Don’t make that look like you don’t know anything!”

To be honest, the sight of Princess Fenia shouting in a voice full of evil was a bit embarrassing. Isn’t he this kind of character to begin with?

No, what could possibly cause such strong emotions?

“It’s like that every time… vaguely, as if it’s not true, as if it’s true… Do you know how frustrating it is for the person trying to gauge it?”

“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about. If it’s a duel, did you learn a good move…”

“What does learning a good move mean…!”

It was clearly visible that his hands were clenched into fists and shaking. No, I was really seriously pissed off..??

“Princess Fenia. Please… fix it for a moment.”

“To a subject who had no intention of winning from the beginning and who was only thinking of getting off the duel quickly…!”

“Princess Fenia. Your voice is too loud…”

I’m not the kind of person who gets embarrassed to the point of showing off, but honestly, this reaction from the princess was completely unexpected.

Princess Fenia is a noble monarch who abhors the act of suppressing others with authority, yet never forgets to value dignity at all times and in all places.

It is not good to lash out at your subordinates without dignity, shaking your hands and raising your voice. It goes against her own beliefs, and if anyone sees or hears it, it probably won’t spread any good news.

So, I tried to calm down first.

“It’s already hard to keep up with the class, but that fox-like merchant is hiding his true intentions and trying to take advantage of the school with his business…! Professor Glast’s grumpiness isn’t getting any better…! Meanwhile, the employees are following the imperial law. “You’re talking about the same thing…! There’s still a lot to worry about! It’s hard…!”

No, why did you have so much anger…?

But why are you making such a fuss over me? Is it such a big sin to be so lax in a duel? I understand that you have a lot of resentment built up, but it’s not something that will explode on me, is it?

“Princess, please calm down.”

First, prepared to be criticized for being blasphemous, he placed his body on the princess’s body. At best, he just put his hands on both shoulders and made direct eye contact.

“Take a deep breath.”

When the large man’s hand suddenly wrapped around her shoulder, the princess took a deep breath. Normally, no one would dare touch the princess’s body, so she must have been a little surprised by this sudden skinship in a situation where they were alone.

In situations that one would normally not encounter, humans suddenly feel uncomfortable and regain their composure.

“No need to get too excited. Inhale and exhale.”

Princess Fenia followed those words and took a few deep breaths…

“Ah… ah…!”

He realized how undignified he had been and covered his face.

This is the so-called wise man time. Basically, embarrassment is something that comes upon you with a delay.

“Ah… please forget about what I said earlier…”

“Ah… yes…”

Is there a question?

For a while, I buried my face in my palms. Even his ears turned red and he seemed very embarrassed.

…Are you done?

Can I go now?

“That’s right. I have a bad habit. It’s okay to just interrogate and ask questions, but it seems like I keep trying to guess what’s going on and guess what’s going on. It’s probably because I lived in the imperial family for so long.”

Then he starts telling facts that weren’t asked.

No, I knew! He said he would listen carefully and give sincere reactions later!

Send me some first! I need to find Taily!!!!

“I knew it was a bad habit, but…”

But since I couldn’t complain to the princess’s face and say, “I’m not interested, please send me away, I’m in a hurry, I’m busy,” I nodded for now.

“I see. Princess, if that’s the case…”

“So, I’ll ask you straight.”

What else?

“This is what I think. Are you trying to cut ties with the Ross Taylor family because you know something about the darkness of the Ross Taylor family or have been harmed by it? Naturally, you need a cause for excommunication, so you harassed that student named Taylor and gave him the reason for excommunication. Did you create it?”

The princess then continued her story while looking straight into my eyes. It was a pretty sharp deduction. Although it was mostly a misconception, the inference that there was a dark part of the Ross Taylor family was correct.

I think I’ve mentioned it once, but it’s clear that Crepin Rothtaylor, the head of the Rothtaylor family, is researching the magic of immortality with the power of Mebula, the evil god of the mythical era. In the process, countless people were sacrificed in the name of experimentation.

However, that is a story that the princess will personally investigate by mobilizing her academic power in the latter part of the scenario. This is still a very distant scenario.

“If you know anything about the dark side of the Rosstaylor family…”

So, how could you possibly tell me that??

“I don’t know much about that.”

“…That can’t be possible.”

The princess intercepted the answer like a knife.

“Logically, it makes no sense. Then what are the words you just shouted at Tailley? Why are you encouraging and rooting for the person you were trying to expel…? You don’t really hate Taily to begin with, do you?”

“Uh… that’s…”

This guy’s question is sharp?

“That’s… I was just teasing. Otherwise… um… well… why… everyone hates me. So if you cheer for Tailly, it’ll look like something’s changed… “Wouldn’t it be…? Something like that…?”

“Anyone can tell it’s a lie!”

“No, it’s not a lie…”

“I… take more pride than anyone else in the insight I have in evaluating people.”

The princess raised her face again and spoke clearly. That is correct. Fenia, the Princess of Mercy, is an expert whose ability to judge people is unrivaled by others.

“Even if everyone in the world thought the same, I clearly understood you at that moment. You were truly desperate and earnest at the moment you encouraged Tailley.”

No, I can’t help but be desperate and desperate… If he gets frustrated, I’ll be ruined…?

But since I couldn’t explain something like that, I decided to use the ‘strategy of absolute defense’, which is used by everyone from elementary school students to fully grown adults across the country.

“It’s true…”

Do you have any proof?

You don’t have any proof???

Nothing but heartache???

“No, that…”

“It’s true… It’s really true…”

From here, there is absolutely no room for the argument to develop. Well, it’s not insight, but if it’s not me, even if I’m sleeping, it’s not. If you get caught, you have no choice but to bring physical evidence.

“Really… it’s real…”

“Ah… really…!”

When she reached this point, the princess once again grabbed her head with both hands without any dignity.

I just kept stamping my feet and repeating the same thing, looking like I was going crazy out of frustration.

Since there was nowhere to vent her anger and the frustration would not go away, the princess’s feet were only trampled on by the princess’s feet.

“Ah really–!!!!”

If you chase after the truth that seems to be within your grasp and yet cannot be grasped… or dodge the investigation like a loach repeatedly, steam is bound to rise in your head. Because you’ve been doing that over and over again, not for a day or two, but for weeks.

In addition, her insight allows anyone to easily see through the inside, so Princess Fenia, who does not have much experience with this, will feel two to three times more frustrated and suffocated.

Still, I can’t help it. The stable and guaranteed flow of the future is my only source of support.

If it were you, would you tell me this…??
