Getting through winter (2)

Anyway human luck is innate.

Claire is an assistant professor who has no idea when she will be given the title of full professor. This is what her senior professors say in unison when they see her like that.

A relatively free-spirited way of thinking is a tendency often seen in young beginning professors but Assistant Professor Clare is different from all of them.

Aren’t you often seen eating an egg tart with a smile alone on a bench in the corner of the living building? You might be getting scolded by Elka the librarian for not keeping the return date. Have you ever twisted your leg while walking down the street and are left fuming and picking up scattered documents by yourself?

Everything he does is so loose that the professor’s dignity doesn’t even feel like a bean. Senior professors sigh deeply… In any case it is popular because it seems like a familiar image to students.

Among them it can be said that he is by far the best among first-time professors when it comes to humaneness.

From my days as a student to completing my senior year of teaching as a teacher… I don’t know why but she was always surrounded by only the best gifts.

From Professor Flavin an authority on monster ecology to Professor Glast the top intellectual in the field of geology research to Professor Emeritus Renoué a heretic in the field of elemental science… I completed my degree program under the guidance of various scholars. It just so happened that the professors in charge were all those people.

After being appointed to a teaching position I was assigned Professor Glast as my advisor and was assigned to various important tasks so I had many opportunities to gain practical experience.

It’s not just the teacher’s clothes that are plentiful. The same goes for her students whom she has taken charge of.

Assistant Professor Claire is definitely a great student but just because she is good at studying doesn’t mean she will be good at practical work.

After getting into the teaching profession doing ‘field’ work… An area completely separate from academic knowledge or acquisition skills. In other words there come many moments when you need to ‘work hard’.

Naturally there is no way such skill could exist in Assistant Professor Claire who is a poor student who is only good at studying. Usually you get hit by hitting your head and it only builds up a lot of stress and often doesn’t work.

But her attire remained the same.

A veteran student assistant whose practical skills have been proven to the extent that many rumors circulate among professors and they want to smuggle him into their own labs. The best staff member among second-year students who has been recognized so clearly that even undergraduate staff with several years of experience nod their heads.

This is because Anise Heylan was attached as the lab’s chief assistant.

Anyway I was born with good clothes. Please share that blessing with me too.

This was something senior professors all grumbled about.

“Wow what is that all about! It must be heavy! “Would you like to listen?”

“Uhm it’s okay. “My heart is grateful.”

He sweeps away his rich gray-brown hair and smiles gracefully. She seems like a young lady who was raised with honor.

The male student in the combat club who tried to help Anis was shocked by her behavior that made the hearts of many men flutter but Anis was able to leave the place skillfully.

These were documents that were quite useless to show to others. It seems like it was handled smoothly.

Anis left the classroom in the teaching building and headed toward the research building. He exchanged greetings with acquaintances and came into the corner room on the third floor with a bunch of documents wrapped around him.

Assistant Professor Claire’s personal laboratory is now more familiar than the dormitory. There are still about 20 minutes left until the owner of this lab arrives. After the afternoon class ended he must have gone to the bakery again to buy snacks.

– Bang!

Anise put down a pile of documents on the main table of the lab and quietly took a deep breath.

It feels like switching a switch in my mind. It is time to let go of the dignified and elegant appearance.

Assistant Professor Claire’s personal laboratory is so neatly organized that it doesn’t match her painted-on personality. It’s all thanks to Anise.

I grabbed the back of my head and tied it up with a string. He then took off his school uniform coat and rolled up his sleeves.

Quickly check off what you need to do today.

Check documents submitted by the Elemental Society Organize the list of applicants for basic elemental science class assignments Replace the ink on the grading quill and discard documents that have exceeded their storage period Confirm the academic security officer Check the teacher evaluation schedule Organize work days during the vacation period Create a basic plan for the new student class assignment test assistant.

While distributing work priorities I raise the water for Assistant Professor Claire who will soon arrive. As soon as she enters the lab she will offer you her snack with a bright smile and ask you to drink her tea.

The first thing you need to do is organize the documents you brought with you.

Materials collected while going to and from the student library Trix Building administrative processing room and dormitory duty room.

We have compiled all the information about ‘Ed Rosstaylor’. The information was gathered at a level that was almost like stalking so it wasn’t something worth showing to others.

Plan your time by dividing it into minutes. 20 minutes before Assistant Professor Claire stormed in. Until then check everything you need to check with these documents.

While the water is boiling change the quill ink and put away the document disposal boxes.

At the same time we absorb information with our eyes.

To quickly analyze the person of Ed Rosstaylor and his background.

“The Ross Taylor family. The most powerful person in the Cloel Empire. The second of 1 son and 2 daughters in the family’s direct lineage. Eldest daughter Arwen Rosstaylor eldest son Ed Rosstaylor second daughter Tanya Rosstaylor. Her eldest daughter Arwen died in her childhood. hmm. She is not on good terms with Duke Keleg. Is this kind of external information meaningless? Where is the history of the Ross Taylor family? Oh here it is. Based on Ed Rothtaylor’s current age… ”

The girlish appearance and demeanor are ultimately just a mask.

In reality the student assistant is the best practitioner and first-class staff member.

Even professors with several years of experience hold their tongues when it comes to collecting deciphering processing organizing analyzing and drawing conclusions.

“In the year of his birth he was crowned as the official successor when Crepin Ross Taylor was two years old when he was usurped as the head of the family. If so he must have been respected from then on. She is more likely to be arrogant and have a sense of entitlement. When she was about five years old she was baptized by the Cult of Crepin of Telos… I wonder if this man also received it at that time. He might have religious beliefs.

If you say you started receiving proper etiquette education at the age of 8 you would have already taken other classes by the time you were 12. However seeing as his grades are at the bottom he is not the type that is overflowing with talent.

Information analysis and work systematization and efficiency are Anis’ means of survival.

As soon as she entered school Anis was faced with a situation where her family was in trouble and she had to stand on her own. She had to survive as a student assistant and a scholarship recipient.

In order to survive in Sylvania as a poor person you have to adapt in some way.

The ability to survive and adapt somehow even when pushed into a corner. For her her best role model is Lortel Kecheln.

Although he is a year younger than me I respect Lortel’s ability to build a tower of gold coins on his own in the swamp of poverty and poverty.

Of course Anis was not born with the ability to see through the flow of money and smell gold coins. Such talent is truly a blessing from heaven.

However Anis has her own way.

Don’t worry Yenika. Anise repeated this and began to tighten the area around her eyes.

“I lived in an oppressed environment indoctrinated with oppressive ideas.”

All humans can be patterned. If you analyze the environment and tendencies you have lived in you can penetrate even your invisible inner self. Anis is an innate ability.

“If you think about your family background it is certain that you grew up without any financial shortcomings.”

The Yenica Failover is the only counterexample. He is a precious friend who I can interact with without any calculations.

For Anis who is in a corner and has to live day by day a friend as clear as glass is more precious than gold. I can’t let her waste her precious love by falling for a seemingly worthless man.

“He has no academic talent and has not shown any outstanding ability in any other field. There is a high possibility that you lack self-confidence. Although he takes the lead in everything he probably has a tendency to avoid responsibility. There is a high possibility that people would prefer a person who covers things up and gives approval rather than exchanging practical opinions.

Do you prefer obedient and bright women? At the same time I hope that his abilities will not stand out. It would be better if it became a platform for showing off oneself.

But I hope it doesn’t get in your way so if you have a sacrificial side you’ll be closer to your ideal type. I will feel more comfortable in human relationships where I can let go when necessary like dealing with a political enemy. When it comes to appearance of course I would prefer someone who is pretty. Since you’ve probably seen a lot of fancy things in your life you’ll definitely prefer expensive things but this type of person may also be attracted to a simpler partner so it’s not a bad idea to go in this direction. Since they have little experience of achieving accomplishments they may be weak to praise and their preferred topics of conversation are mainly about luxuries and dignity. Rather than receiving gifts they would prefer to show off their wealth by giving gifts.

Given the circumstances it doesn’t seem like a good gift to give so if you show that you are happy with even a small gift you will be greatly liked. The key is dependence rather than obsession humility rather than competence.

The speed at which documents can be digested and analyzed is no longer within the reach of the average person.

While I roll my eyes and organize my thoughts my hands don’t stop working.

“Regardless of actual ability there is a high possibility that you are sensitive to gains and losses. If possible it would be nice to be able to appeal the practical advantages of being human to human. It would be good to check how the way of thinking has changed since being excommunicated and then change the policy.

You need to think about what kind of feelings you have for Yenika and check whether you are attracted to and swayed by other people of the opposite sex even though you have feelings beyond a crush. Even if you are shaken do you consistently feel guilty and sorry? Or perhaps the key point is whether you are a person so foolish and selfish that you can even accept such a pathetic self.

To do that you need to think about it properly… As a student assistant I’m a senior so I’m in a pretty advantageous position. Still it doesn’t seem like he prefers a leading female figure so walking the appropriate tightrope is the key.

I don’t think the ideal type itself is that difficult. It seems to embody the patterned desires of humans born with aristocratic character. It seems that only recently have various changes been revealed due to the environmental crisis but it is unlikely that the inner self of a human being that has accumulated over ten years of life will be fundamentally changed in just one year. Although he has become a little more healthy his characteristic arrogant attitude still seems to remain…

In the end it’s not that difficult if you sum it up. It’s all like this.

The words that were flowing out suddenly cut off.

For Anis even human preferences are ultimately subject to analysis. It is more like a collection of all kinds of patterned tendencies gathered together and accumulated in different ways.

The ‘ideal type’ is also nothing more than a precise implementation by assembling detailed patterns.

It’s also very easy to like someone and express more emotions. For Anis switching on and off human emotions is no different from solving a slightly complicated equation.

What I am saying is that it is not that difficult.

The laboratory where the storm of accidents had ended and the air had calmed down.

Anise sat there alone and quietly raised her head.

“I wish I could get some practice.”

In the end human relationships are all about putting on a mask. Attacking someone is ultimately all about changing the appropriate mask to suit the situation.

At least that was the case for Anise. Except for two people: Jenica and Clara.

-bang!

The lab door opened and Assistant Professor Claire came in with a cheerful greeting.

“Hello~! As expected Anise came first. “I heard you’re always diligent!”

With a cheerful greeting as if she was doing well Anise placed the tray she had brought from the bakery on the table.

All of the documents that had been analyzed on Ed Ross-Taylor had already been sorted out and placed in a corner of a drawer.

“I bought Mont Blanc from Laplace Bakery~. Let’s eat and eat!”

Claire smiled and brought out the Mont Blanc plate.

“Wow I already made black tea. Of course it’s anise. He was even expecting me to bring snacks… “Tsk chacha!”

I almost spilled my tea out of excitement. If she had poured boiling water on her hand she would have been burned.

It was obvious that Anise who was as smart as Claire was always would warn her to be careful.

Claire smiled and said I’m sorry and tried to apologize but…

“Oh you’re not hurt…” ?”

Yes?

Claire tilted her head as she felt something strange.

thank god… You weren’t hurt… I’m so glad… ”

It’s clear that Anise looks the same as usual but I feel an indescribable sense of discomfort… Professor Claire nodded with difficulty.

Once you have decided on a policy devote yourself to that goal with all your might.

This was the survival policy that Anise tenaciously followed in her wild life.

*

“I think I’ll go down to my hometown this vacation.”

why? The librarian… “Is Elka going home too?”

“How did you know?”

Ziggs regularly jogs through the forest. It’s a common sight now.

I stop by the camp once in a while to compliment the cabin or have a chat about bachelor life and then head back… Today was no different.

Ziggs who was sitting across from the campfire and twisting his body here and there seemed to have gotten stronger since the beginning of his first year. I’m sure Ziggs must have gone through many hardships.

“I live in Elka’s house so I can only go back when Elka returns.”

“I guess the people at Elka’s mansion aren’t very kind to you?”

“That’s not necessarily true… Well actually what I want most is to spend time with Elka.”

It’s not even a day or two since Ziggs’ pure love affair so it’s now natural for him to say things so bluntly.

“Senior Ed is he still at camp during vacation?”

“I guess so. “By the time I reach my 3rd year I need to be able to handle mid-level magic which will help me survive so I plan to study various things.”

“Has it happened already? “Aren’t you at the basic level of magic just a year ago?”

Ziggs was doing push-ups with his shirt off in this cold weather. What on earth do you want to become when you grow up by training all day like this at this age?

“Whoop!”

After finishing one set with ease Ziggs got up from his seat and sat down on the log bench across from him.

“Whoa… It’s not good to push yourself too hard. “Didn’t you train your magic a lot today as well?”

“Magic training?”

yes. I’m asking because I can’t feel any of Ed’s magical power in my sensitivity and I wonder if he trained until he ran out of energy. “It’s not good for your health if you collapse like last time due to a twist of magical power.”

“Hmm… ”

I held one palm in front of me and squeezed and opened it a few times.

“There are circumstances like that. “It’s nothing to worry about I guess I won’t be able to use magic for a while.”

hmm… I’m worried. “If you collapse from overwork you will suffer the most but other than that the people around you will also cause trouble.”

“Are you going to go so far as to say it’s an uproar?”

“The last time I collapsed… um… No I made a mistake. It must be a shameful memory for the parties involved… ”

Ziggs trailed off as if he had been silenced by something.

The last time I fell Ziggs took charge of protecting the camp and when I think about it I feel like I owe him quite a bit.

“It looks like you have a fever. Are you sure your health is really bad?”

“Everything has its own circumstances. “I will take care of it and coordinate it well so don’t worry.”

“If you say so then it’s not like I should mess around any more.”

Ziggs’ greatest strength is his coolness.

Maybe it’s because I lived in the wild and free during my childhood so I never ask more questions about unnecessary issues than necessary.

Well everything has its own circumstances. If you put it in one word it is definitely easier to just say so and move on.

Oh right. Ayla asked about you.”

“Ayla?”

yes. After the last Seongseo incident Ayla explained everything about your situation. “I heard he ran out first saying he was going to call for help.”

“Well that’s roughly it.”

“Looking at it you’ve cleared a path for us to enter… It seems that there has been some misunderstanding in the past. “They said they were going to catch me and drag Taily to apologize politely but Ayla asked me to tell them because she didn’t know where her senior lived.”

Everyone already knows about the existence of my camp at the edge of the northern forest.

However only those who know each other know about it and not all students at the school know it well.

“Meanwhile I’m the only one who knows where your senior resides… “I was thinking about telling you but it seemed a bit odd to give out personal information without your permission.”

“There’s no need to tell me. “I have no intention of accepting an apology so tell him it’s done.”

“Wow is that so? “You must be very offended.”

huh? What’s wrong with being offended? “It literally means you don’t have to apologize.”

I pushed the poker into the campfire.

“It’s okay because I know how sorry you are.” “I don’t have any hard feelings so just tell him to take care of it.”

We talked about it roughly and assembled the hunting trap. Snare traps only work for small animals so they were in the process of devising a drop trap with a metal skewer embedded in it.

Ziggs sat down on the log and laughed.

“Inclusive… “Rather than that you are completely indifferent.”

“I’m still a bit busy these days. hmm… By the way Ziggs you have a pretty big mouth too right?”

When I suddenly said that Ziggs tilted his head.

Although it’s not particularly important information I didn’t even casually reveal the fact that I was building a cabin in a place like this. Even though he must be quite close to Tailley and the others.

He’s also a bit of a quiet type to begin with.

hmm… “I don’t like talking recklessly about other people’s circumstances.”

okay. Can you help me with just one thing? “I’ll give you a reward.”

“Do we really need to go back and forth with money?”

“The workload is a bit intense so it’s not at a level where I can ask for help as a favor.”

Ziggs tilted his head.

“I’m telling you because you have a big mouth but I ended up using that basement library.”

“You mean the place that was connected to the underground waterway by a secret passage?”

okay. That entrance is closed now but there is another entrance. But the inside is a mess so we need labor to clean it up. Please help me just before I go home for vacation. “It’s a bit difficult right now because I can’t use magic.”

“… Well if you think you’re doing it for training there’s no problem… “It’s a bit weird to see money going back and forth between seniors and juniors.”

“Just accept it. “It’s the remaining balance after taking care of personal matters so the amount isn’t that big.”

After saying that he threw the leather pouch that had been placed on the simple wooden table at Ziggs. Ziggs deftly caught the leather pouch that flew in a parabola.

“What are you planning to use the library for?”

It was a natural question.

It was about time that the arrangement of materials requested from Elte Trading Company was completed. Since there was a setback in magical training it was necessary to invest time and effort into magical engineering training.

However depending on the type magic equipment can be very bulky and the materials themselves are sensitive to the environment making them unsuitable for storage in a wild camp.

“I’m going to use it as my workshop.”

Anyway all other magic engineering recipes are sleeping in that library. I was planning to use the library as my personal workshop to save myself the trouble of bringing it out.

“You mean the workshop?”

okay. “Because there’s a lot of useful stuff inside.”

Accessibility is not very good because you have to go through a long hole and because it is underground ventilation is poor and the distance from the teaching building is much further. However it is not bad for practicing magic engineering.

It’s the perfect place to grab a seat sit down and produce magic engineering supplies all day long.

“Do you even do magic engineering?”

“It would be nice to have a lot of tools.”

“To survive in the camp I trained my magic power elemental magic magic engineering and even archery… Also starting tomorrow won’t you be taking care of your academic affairs as a scholarship student?”

“Is the list of undergraduate scholarship students already out?”

yes. what… Yes but… You live a really busy life. “It’s crazy.”

Ziggs looked at me with a very complicated face and put the leather pouch in his arms.

“I’m not the type of person who necessarily flatters but… In the long run people like Ed will all be successful. Well anyway I understand. “I’m going to leave now so take care of yourself.”

“Okay go in.”

The crunching sound of stepping on snow scratched my ears. It’s a strangely cool and pleasant sound.

I roughly waved my hand in greeting to Ziggs who was leaving the camp. I glanced at the piece of paper on the empty tree stump next to me took out a spare quill and marked a checkmark.

Things to do during winter vacation 1. Develop a workshop organization plan v 2. Build a warehouse to store materials 3. Expand the cabin 4. Check scenarios v 5.

“Ross Taylor.”

The girl closes the document and tries to pronounce the name.

It is a pronunciation sound that flows softly between the tongue. It’s smooth and comfortable as if it’s been coated with oil.

The dazzling brilliance that emanates from its name is not something that anyone can wear lightly.

This is the history of the Ross Taylor family who shared the rise and fall of the Cloel Empire. Anyone who tarnishes that feat deserves to die.

At least that’s the case with the girl’s values.

Duke Crepin is kind and dignified and respected by everyone. The fact that I was born to have such a person as my father is probably the greatest blessing in my life.

Therefore it is natural to have a longing for Sylvania. There are a lot of people who are ‘on the same level’ as the Ross Taylor family.

A place where all kinds of noble and capable people come together and refine themselves.

If I could prove my own worth and ability in such a place and raise the name of Ross Taylor how could I be more honored than this?

However every historical feat has its flaws.

“Ed Rosstaylor.”

Since he was excommunicated he would not be in a position to use the name Ross Taylor. At least that’s the case in public places.

Nevertheless the fact that Ross Taylor’s name is on the notice… This is probably because the professor in charge who sent this document had forgotten that fact. He doesn’t seem to be the type that is sure about getting things done.

In any case this person is calling himself Ross Taylor so openly.

Since the name Ross Taylor was given so naturally and people around him called him that out of inertia it would be obvious that the name would be passed on to official documents like this.

“Miss Tanya. “The carriage is ready.”

The servant who looks mature at first glance calls the girl’s name in a low voice. The face she suddenly turned her head to reveal was familiar.

The blonde hair that shines like the sun and the strong assertive eyes run in the family. Although it looks sharp at first glance it is overflowing with elegance thanks to many years of etiquette training.

She truly has the dignity to be called a lady. However arrogance a sense of privilege and a chosen-people mentality also inevitably follow and the family environment itself is like that.

“I need to meet my father.”

Sylvania is full of all kinds of stars. Tanya admires such noble and brilliant talents.

Although no one has ever seen his face in person… Just a vague rumor is enough to gauge its greatness.

The princess of the Cloel Empire the real power of the Elte Company. A great alchemist who is said to have created the ‘elixir of imprinting’ as a student of a spirit master who handles high-ranking spirits at the age of her teens. A sword demon of the Nortondale family a beast who ruled the northern grasslands. Right down to the warriors it deals with.

Among them the one that excited Tanya the most was a rare genius wizard who may have been blessed by the stars by Archmage Glokt. Just by imagining him he is a man full of dignity and grace.

Now it’s the freshman class placement test. It is an important exam that symbolizes the beginning of academic life.

A feast of noble people that makes your heart race just thinking about it.

In order to blend in with them and lead a fulfilling bachelor’s life… There is trash that must be put away.

Tanya sighed deeply at that fact.
