The man who had clung almost in tears.
After a little time passed, he seemed to regain his senses and cleared his throat.
“Heum heum. I showed an unsightly side.”
“You seem to be showing one right now too.”
Aegis muttered.
There was indeed reason for such a sound.
The man was truly wrapped up tight.
Like a cocoon, not only his limbs but only his face sticking out, it was a bit unsightly.
Still, that level is mild.
If mishandled, he’d go straight to corpse.
The reason is Lapis.
Originally, she planned to throw him out just like that, bound.
What kind of crazy bastard is this?! To touch Evan’s body that I barely touched……!
Is that the problem?
……It was blocked for various reasons.
Instead, she’s glaring while eujeok eujeok crunching a cucumber, and the man is doing his best to avert his gaze from Lapis.
Hmm.
A bit scary, right?
But if you don’t touch, she won’t bite.
……Probably.
“My name is Alec. I came from Karen Academy.”
..If it’s Karen Academy, that’s where Professor Moriarty is.”
“Ooh! You received the invitation! Correct!”
Alec nodded.
“The distance is quite far, so I came personally to escort you! There was an order from the professor to bring you without a single scratch……!”
Even the professor’s order?
Evan frowned inwardly.
When on earth did he see him to desperately try to fetch Evan like this.
That level is practically kidnapping?
Wait a second.
Evan felt something odd in his words and asked back.
“Aren’t you a professor?”
“Yes? No! I still have so much to learn, how could I be a professor?”
He speaks with a strange confidence, as if this situation is natural.
So there was a slight sense of disconnect.
If Evan’s guess is correct, this person…….
“Then perhaps your status is……?”
“I’m a graduate student.”
Ah.
Graduate student.
But why so energetic?
The graduate students Evan knows can be summarized in one word.
Wilted cabbage.
Always walking around pickled, sometimes receiving requests from professors to ‘put an elephant in the fridge’……..
Anyway, isn’t it a profession that walks closer to corpses than people?
But why so energetic?
“Graduate students have that vibe.”
Frey muttered in an interested voice.
No.
That’s not it.
This person is the weird one.
Aegis felt the strangeness too.
She showed an even stronger reaction than Evan, who thought it was slightly odd.
‘……Graduate student? Maybe under illusion magic? You, really?’
Aegis asked with sharply opened eyes.
“The graduate students I know absolutely don’t act like you?”
“Haha! Of course! Everyone calls me a weirdo. Sometimes people ask if I’m a monster born from a beast!”
That’s an insult, right?
“But don’t worry too much……! I genuinely enjoy my current life! Graduate school isn’t bad either!”
Alec’s eyes sparkled banjjak banjjak.
Literally, intense light to the point his eyes turned into stars!
“I truly love the school……! Studying, research, serving the professor, all so enjoyable! Kids these days say ‘otaku for school’……!”
Evan’s gaze changed.
It wasn’t pity looking at a graduate student.
It was the gaze looking at a madman.
..That doesn’t seem normal.”
“Yeah. Absolutely not.”
Aegis said firmly.
“I’ve met quite a few graduate students too? Before becoming an elder, I had several…… But never seen one like that. First, shouldn’t we crack open this guy’s head?”
“Haha, I have a condition where my hair doesn’t grow more! It would be troublesome if you open my head!”
“Really driving me crazy.”
Aegis tousled her hair with an expression of going insane.
Now seeming tired of even talking, she draped a thin blanket and sprawled beolleodeng on the sofa.
Lapis glanced around, approached, and whispered small to Evan.
“They said graduate students aren’t people. Can’t we just kill and bury?”
…It seems small in her own way.
But it’s just in her own way, and to others, it sounded loud.
“That’s rude.”
Evan cleared his throat small.
Perhaps predicting he heard, Alec had a heu heu benevolent expression.
Or it looked like reality hit.
“Haha, don’t be like that.”
Alec benevolently let it pass.
Unbelievable for a graduate student always filled with fatigue, no, anger.
……Still, eyes not meeting.
“Ah! Rather, this isn’t the time! You must hurry to the academy……!”
“Before that, there are a few things I want to ask.”
“Yes! Ask anything…….!”
“First, one.”
Originally, he planned to ask why invited.
But every time looking at Frey, the sparkling eyes,
The outfit reminiscent of a nun’s habit, he couldn’t not ask.
Perhaps not fallen for ‘Do you believe in the Way?’
“Why…… do you call Frey a Sage?”
“Ooh! I haven’t explained that yet!”
He cheok! raised his head.
Tried to raise both arms too, the threads around arms kkuemjil wriggled.
“Our academy has 7 great problems! Precisely, every time one is solved, the professor adds one more!”
“That professor.”
“Naturally our Professor Moriarty!”
“..Coming here, I was tasked to solve one problem! A problem unsolved for a full hundred years!”
‘……What if not solved?’
“You wouldn’t even have the value to speak to young master Evan, don’t come back, he said!”
“Really driving me crazy!”
All.
Beolteok!
Aegis couldn’t hold back, shot up from her seat. Yelled almost foaming at the mouth.
“That’s just telling you not to come back!”
“If my ability is lacking, naturally so!”
“Ao! Really!”
Aegis flailing like having a fit.
Evan tapped Aegis’s shoulder.
……Originally, anything pales before such madness.
“While worrying so much on the way! Met bandits, carriage smashed! No food, dying, before me……! The Sage-nim appeared!”
Alec’s eyes sparkled banjjak banjjak.
It was still untainted,
“She bestowed food upon me! I wanted to call her Saintess, but the Sage-nim refused! Instead, she solved my problem……!”
‘What exactly was the problem?’
“‘How can humans escape fate?’ it was!”
What kind of problem level is that?
Naturally Evan thought difficult math or something.
But the problem was that kind?
“……That’s not a problem, just a prank, right? How to solve that?”
Even Aegis couldn’t answer.
But amazingly, Frey gave the answer.
-That’s a problem unsolvable unless going against heaven.
Going against heaven.
Reverse heaven.
That one word gave him enlightenment.
“Reverse heaven! Such apostolic statement! But with just that, the problem was solved……!”
A problem unsolved for a hundred years found an answer!
……That’s how she came to be called Sage.
Evan, listening, genuinely lamented.
……She just spouted anything!’
Frey’s real name, Super.
He was certainly one of the villains with infamous reputation.
But that was after aging a bit.
Not exactly smart head! but mad eloquence, beauty that makes opponents fall head over heels, outfit adding wings…… various complex factors overlapped.
What about Super now?
Evan has never seen a woman as demure as Super in his life.
To the point such evaluation comes naturally.
Nun’s habit wrapped ching ching around the whole body.
Not tight to the body, fit with moderate looseness.
Not that the figure is hidden, but since not yet adult, cute comes before beautiful.
?
Would low intelligence back then rise?
Of course not!
They said intelligence isn’t high because didn’t study young, but how many would believe that.
“I see.”
“Ooh! I heard all these teachings came from young master Evan! So please, please tell me how you bestowed such teachings!”
“……I don’t know.”
“Ooh, it means I’m not yet qualified to hear. I will strive more.”
Not even a priest.
Interprets everything himself.
Evan dumbfounded.
Evan stared at him blankly, then thought of a way to shut his mouth completely.
“I can’t tell the method, but instead, one proposal.”
“Yes! Speak!”
“If I make your hair grow more, be quiet and not noisy. If
“Understood?”
Didn’t wait for answer.
Immediately reached out and touched the head.
Analysis, and understanding.
Understanding about the head poured in.
‘……Ah. This is the problem.’
Various blood flows blocked, pores clogged, removed all miscellaneous factors.
Slightly exerted force, softened hair and attached.
“O, oo……?”
He shook his head.
Feeling very slightly heavier than usual.
Change only those with hair loss know.
“O, ooooo……!”
Jureuruk!
Tears jureuruk flowed from Alec’s eyes.
“Savior! You are my savior!”
Bbak!!
That moment.
Frey suddenly strode over and struck his stomach.
“Kkeuek!”
“This…… insolent……!”
Alec fallen to the floor in cocoon state.
No different from rolled mat, she stomped kkuk kkuk with genuinely pissed expression.
Even with seemingly thin ankle, he dented umpuk umpuk into the floor.
“Dare…… dare call Evan…… savior on your own? Do you truly want to be thrown to hell?”
Lapis reacted similarly.
Lapis not her usual kyaaaa! but very calmly raised her hand.
Threads sparkled on the palm.
“Can I kill? Suddenly looks like meat…….”
“No.”
“The kids seem to like you a lot.”
Aegis came behind Evan, pressed her head with chin and said.
“The little ones play well among themselves.”
“Remove your head.”
Evan removed her, then stood from seat.
First, Frey seems pissed.
Bounce a bit.
“Before going.”
Absolutely not because scared.
“I will report to His Grace the Duke.”
Rather.
He won’t tie this to the test too, right?
****
“Splendid.”
“?”
“To meet even Professor Moriarty to pass the second heir test. Already a high-nosed professor. Come back with good learning.”
“??”
“Even if displeasing, killing is troublesome. Think once more before acting.”
The Duke praising seriously, and warning.
Evan lost words.
……Why is the perception of me like this?
“Before that.”
“?”
“Your ability. Don’t use drug manufacturing.”
Drug manufacturing.
Simply put, hair loss treatment.
Cold sweat formed on Evan’s forehead.
