Chapter 37
-Come to the library at 6 PM. With the fox. And Hercy, you play the final boss.
-What do you mean?
-You’ll find out when it comes.
Hersi walked while thinking seriously.
“What is Ruid’s intention?”
It is difficult to follow Ruid’s thinking ability. I always thought that way, but this was the first time I couldn’t understand it.
“Does Miho know?”
[Hercy would know better about the master, right?]
“So…?”
Although Hersy was in a good mood, his mind was in a mess. All she could do was go to the library at 6pm like Ruid said.
Hercy raised his head and checked the clock tower. 3 p.m. There are still 3 hours left.
“I should be there in advance just in case. “Then won’t we find some clues?”
[It’s a good idea!]
“Come here.”
Miho jumped up and hugged Hersi. Hercy looked happy.
Hersi, who soon arrived at the library, bowed to Charon. Charon also said hello and then approached Hersi.
“Nice to meet you, Lady Hersi. “You came right after class.”
“…How can Charon come faster than me every time?”
Hersi had just finished taking ‘Understanding Casting’, a required course for Experts.
Still, I was amazed at Charon, who seemed to have arrived much faster than me.
“Haha, we listen to supplements separately during closing time.”
“Ah… that’s the situation.”
I didn’t know because I wasn’t that interested.
“You must be quite tired.”
“It can’t be. “It is a great honor to be able to work at the Imperial Academy.”
Charon, who was speaking awkwardly, stopped at Miho.
“This…?”
“Ah, it’s a familiar.”
“Kang!”
“That’s a very cute arctic fox. “It suits Lady Hersi.”
Hercy shook his head.
“no. “This is Ruid’s familiar.”
In fact, we took a class together and heard questions from several students and professors. Each time, Hersy spoke proudly.
A familiar is a being who is identified with family.
To entrust such a person to someone, of course, it has to be someone they are closest to.
I was able to show off my closeness to Ruid simply by asking questions.
Although I wasn’t the type to brag, it was inevitable that Hersy’s shoulders would rise.
That’s right, I’m currently the only one known to be close with that lazy Ruid.
Charon’s reaction was no different. His pupils got bigger and he was very surprised.
“This makes more sense after listening to Prince Ruid’s… story. “Even an arctic fox.”

“Hehe. Right? “I think it suits Ruid’s arms better than mine.”
“ah. Actually, Confucius Louis also came to the library. “Are you part of the group?”
“…the library?”
“…You didn’t know?”
Hercy nodded three times.
Charon’s face became stained with embarrassment.
“I’m really sorry, but could you please forget what I just said…”
“Yes?”
Charon closed his eyes tightly. It was a mistake. If you are unable to protect the user’s secrets, you are disqualified as a gatekeeper.
“It seemed like you came secretly. sorry. “Please don’t ask any more questions.”
“Ah…”
Hercy said with a smile, trying not to make Charon feel guilty.
“If I meet Ruid, I will have to act very surprised. “What a coincidence, saying the same thing.”
Charon’s face brightened.
“thank you.”
“No, can I come in?”
“of course!”
Hersi opened the door to enter the library.
[There are 9 people in the back looking at Hercy.]
‘Huh?’
Hercy looked back.
There, a group of about 10 commoners were whispering. Looking at Hersy himself –
Hersy has good intuition, but he felt strong.
‘…Miho, can I ask you a favor?’
[Yes?]
‘Can you secretly listen to that story and come? Of course without getting caught.’
Miho narrowed one eye.
[Just leave it to me.]
The fox’s body became transparent.

“Hercy Minerva is out of calculation, what should I do?”
“I can’t help it. Opportunities like this are rare-”
The group of commoners whispered, looking toward the library with their backs to the wall.
I made eye contact with Charon’s dark, grim face, but I didn’t pay much attention to it.
It’s been like this for a week already.
“Closing time at 7 o’clock, you have to aim for that time. “Especially today, the president went on a business trip.”
“…I’m scared.”
A timid-looking commoner looked at the floor and spoke softly.
“Aren’t we all going to get expelled if we keep doing this? “The use of magic is prohibited.”
“Are you stupid?”
A female commoner with raised eyebrows reprimanded.
“There are only 30 commoners participating in the rebellion. There are three people inside. So those arrogant nobles won’t use magic? “You can’t discipline that many people.”
Their plan was an armed occupation.
After that, they all used magic together in the sky and caused a big commotion.
There is no chancellor who is not friendly to the common people, so the vice-president, the ‘Professor of Phoenician Theory’, will come here to respond.
Phenicia is a professor who is very friendly to commoners. I was confident that they would take their side.
“If we take over by force, it’s over. It’s about pushing the noses of those arrogant nobles. And they use that as an excuse to say, ‘You say the strongest person has to protect the library, but even commoners can’t stop it?’”
Their ultimate goal was to go beyond taking over the library and to add commoners to the staff assigned to the Every Library.
The reason the nobles were able to take over that library was because all the workers were nobles. There were a total of 8 slots, including librarian, administrator, and gatekeeper, and the plan was a success if only 4 commoners were slotted into them.
“And now, don’t act weak, Hans. “If you like Hanna, show this level of manliness-”
Pot-bellied Hans drooped his shoulders sullenly.
“Can we…?”
“of course!”
Fran, nicknamed “Anchovy,” grabbed Hans’ shoulder.
“You idiot! Justice is upon us! Isn’t that right, Justin?”
Justin, who hadn’t said anything since before, sighed and said.
“This is too violent. Is this the only way? If we all make a good story together—”
“Story? “With arrogant nobles who campaign with nothing more than neatness?”
Justin was immediately met with a rebuttal.
“Justin, you are the leader, right? What will other kids think if you say something like that? “Take responsibility.”
“…If that is what everyone thinks, then it would be right to follow it. okay.”
“Well, it’s almost 6 o’clock. “Let’s think about the strategy.”
They huddled together and crouched.
“First of all, Catherine will get that big guy’s attention. He’s protesting louder than usual. In the meantime, let’s cover the area secretly. And…”
They didn’t know.
There was an arctic fox sitting comfortably listening to the whole story.

“What, what?”
Hersy, who was reading a book at the table, opened his eyes wide. I heard the story Miho told me.
She said to herself as she looked at her surroundings.
‘Is that true?’
[Spirits can’t lie.]
‘Oh my God… commoners, what really happened to their minds?’
Hercy couldn’t believe it at all. The commoners’ plans were beyond common sense.
‘Do you really want to be expelled as a group?? ‘Suppression by force?’
After thinking about it for a while, Hersi thought that the commoners’ plan, which was surprisingly similar, might work.
Of course, the nobles here will also react, and if that happens, the academy will have to discipline too many students.
The problem becomes especially serious if commoners drive out experts and take their place.
‘Library workers’ could really change as they wanted. Whatever the reason, the worker was unable to protect the library from someone’s intrusion. It is unqualified.
‘…Crazy guys. I guess I forgot about it for a while after spending time with the peaceful Ruid. ‘It’s hell for commoners.’
Hersy stood up. I was thinking of going to this state and scolding him. Go somewhere quiet.
But at that moment.
Ruid’s words passed by.
-Hercy is the final boss.
‘…Could it be that he said this?’
Hersi’s head turned quickly.
Instructions to go to the library by 6 o’clock.
Also, the time of the commoner’s attack is 6 o’clock.
That meant… there was a high possibility that Ruid knew about this incident.
So, what is the meaning of the final boss?
‘…I was bored.’
Hercy slumped his shoulders.
I looked around.
For some reason, it seems like Ruid is hiding somewhere, watching.
**
“It’s the beginning.”
Ruid’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the space where a fight was taking place outside the library.
I took the bread that had been prepared in advance. Using a half-moon shaped knife, I spread the kaymak placed on the side onto the bread.
Kaymak is a dairy product made by collecting the fat of milk and hardening it to resemble cream.
It was a very high-quality food, and one of the few normal foods that was not affected by the merciless detoxification magic.
Ruid, who was heavily coated in Kaimak, took a big bite.
Rustling –
the flavor filled my mouth. Kaymak made from freshly squeezed milk was very savory.
It cannot be compared with any words. This is a taste of heaven.
“…this is life.”
Ruid looked ahead with quiet admiration. Eye candy couldn’t be left out.
-you…! What are you doing now?
-Has it been good so far? This is the magic of discrimination that we have been receiving!
-Ah, magic at the Academy…! Are you out of your mind?!
-You’re a bastard, you idiot.
“hmm. “You can’t win with commoners.”
Charon was speechless and couldn’t speak properly. He seems to be unable to come to his senses after hearing harsh swear words for the first time in his life.
Ruid felt sorry and stretched out his hand to rummage around in subspace.
“found.”
Ruid smiled brightly and took out a glass bottle. The label of the glass bottle had ‘Luid’s’ written in elegant letters.
It was a bucket of honey.
Original food becomes delicious only when it is transformed. For example, even if you eat pork cutlet, your first bite is salt. Next was wasabi. Next is the pork cutlet sauce. You have to eat this way to be a true gourmet.
With that in mind, Ruid spread kaymak on bread and then poured honey on it.
“Big.”
This was a privilege known only to those who tried it. Before Ruid tasted this century’s delicacy, he looked at the people engaged in a magical battle.
The colorful lights collided, and it was pretty, just like fireworks.
Ruid took another bite.
Rustling –
A flavor that fills your mouth.
It was doubly delicious when mixed with the sweet honey that the bees worked hard to collect.
At that time, a commoner hiding inside opened the door to the library.
-The library door is open! Everyone attack!
-Wow!
The shouts announcing the start of the full-scale episode could be clearly heard.
Ruid also clenched his fists and shouted softly.
“Going Hersi…!”
