All-Master Player Of The Academy [EN]: Chapter 85

85. Homecoming – 1

Just because they were from the Imperial Academy didn’t mean the class content itself changed.

However, the attitude of the students taking the class had to change significantly.

“In the last session, we made the Caltz reagent, and now we will create three types of potions that can be mixed with it. This time, we will make a fatigue recovery potion.”

Pharmacology instructor Hodiran wrote the formula on the blackboard.

You have to mix according to that formula to make a fatigue recovery potion.

Ian spoke coldly to Valla, Bakbare, Blanche, and Wilbal.

“If you mess around and make something weird, I won’t let it slide.”

Ian, leading the weakest four in the pharmacology class, spoke in a chilling tone.

They sweated at his warning.

“Then let’s start right away.”

Following Ian’s instructions, the four fumbled to take out the reagents and begin mixing.

He glanced at it and said to Blanche.

“Grind the Toiran powder more finely.”

“Huh? Okay.”

“Bakbare. Squeeze more mandrake juice. What are you saving your strength for?”

“Uooooh!”

“Wilbal. How can you shoot an arrow properly if you can’t even do this level of precision work? Aren’t you concentrating?”

“Ah, hahaha. I am trying…….”

“Valla. Stir that ten times and then add the Hosind solution.”

“Huh? Uh-huh.”

Just by Ian, the team leader, saying a word each, the four, who used to receive near-failing grades, made the medicine properly.

Thus, the pharmacology class ended without any problems, and Class B and the Imperial Academy students were able to create fatigue recovery potions.

“Hmm…… Excellent. It’s made properly.”

Valla, Blanche, Bakbare, and Wilbal smiled awkwardly.

If it had been just these four, something useless would have been made.

It was all thanks to Ian’s accurate and proper instructions.

However, there was no need to say that now, so Hodiran just smiled.

“Good. Then next.”

Other groups also showed their fatigue recovery potions.

After checking everyone’s medicine, she smiled.

“Everyone made it well. Fatigue recovery potions are easy to get wrong with just one mistake. This medicine is often used even after you graduate, so remember the formula and method well. Now, let’s clean up the tools.”

When the cleanup was finished, the class ended.

Ian picked up Myane, who had been dozing off by the window during the class.

“Hey, Ian. I heard you’re going home?”

A bright voice was heard.

Widia, who approached, put her arm around Ian’s shoulder and smiled.

“Why? Do you have something to say?”

“No. I was just thinking we could study if you came back a little early.”

Ian pulled Haryun over.

“Do it with him. What you’re lacking right now is enchantment theory, right? He’s good at that too. Or…… Grajin!”

“Huh?”

“You teach Widia enchantment theory this holiday. And Wildy.”

“Yes?”

“Give Blanche and Valla a magic response lecture too. And…….”

Ian appropriately instructed the students.

The students, who didn’t have anything special to do on the holiday, took it casually.

Filoah, who was watching, admired.

“That guy has an insight that doesn’t suit the third son of a mere baronial family.”

“I heard it from Grajin too, but…… he’s definitely amazing.”

It’s not just personal ability.

Ian accurately grasped who was good at what and who was not.

Even the instructors at the Imperial Academy can’t do this easily.

“Hey, Ian.”

After graduating from Fredon Academy, Ian will definitely become a great person.

In that case, even if the countries are different and the academies they attend are different, there’s no harm in getting close.

After finishing his thoughts, Filoah approached, and Ian quickly turned his head.

“I heard you’re going home for three days starting tomorrow? Why?”

“I have some personal business.”

“I heard you don’t get along with Baron Brandon.”

“We’re not exactly laughing and joking around.”

“Really? Then that’s even better. Do you have any thoughts about being an exchange student?”

Of course, it’s a system that almost no one actually uses.

But the fact that it exists is important, so Filoah grinned.

“I’ve been watching you for a few days since the last assassin incident. You were amazing. Think about studying abroad too.”

“Hmm hmm. I agree too. The Imperial Academy teaches things that Fredon Academy doesn’t teach.”

And if you like it after being there, you can stay.

Ian looked around at the Class B students.

They didn’t all look happy.

“It’s a bit much to say that now. Let’s talk about it later.”

“If you’re interested, ask Instructor Bilfrost about it later. Ah. And.”

May raised her finger and smiled brightly.

“If you need a place to stay or support, our Blandy viscount family will support you.”

“Don’t forget the Macassen count family either.”

As the two students smiled and spoke, Ian nodded roughly.

As they left, Wildy frowned with her pretty face.

“Ian. What do you think about being an exchange student?”

“I don’t know.”

“Exchange students are not good. Just stay at Fredon Academy.”

Not only Haryun but also the other students agreed with that.

“In my opinion, if you go to the Imperial Academy, you won’t last even a month…….”

“Are you saying that I can’t last a month and get kicked out?”

“No. I’m saying you won’t last a month and you’ll beat up all the guys there.”

The Imperial Academy is where the heirs of nobles in the Empire go.

It’s not like Fredon Academy, where nobles from other countries gather.

That’s why it’s a place where you also think about the class relations within the Empire, but how much would they look down on a third son of a poor baronial family from another country?

And would Ian just stand there and take that contempt?

It would definitely be a fight every day.

“What can you learn in that process?”

“Well…… it’s still a long way off, so I’ll have to think about it later.”

Ian packed his bag.

The holiday is from tomorrow, but you can leave right after class.

Ian, thinking that he should just go to the Temple of the Sun and the Temple of the Moon for worship, left the classroom.

Osnen was waiting for him in the hallway.

“Do you have something to say?”

Lily and Hebin, who were next to him, flinched at Ian’s informal speech.

But because Osnen had told them in advance, they just clenched their fists.

“Is going to Baron Brandon’s because of that?”

“If that refers to Pandemonium [a chaotic and wicked place], then you should see it that way.”

“I see……. But I’ve already finished the investigation on my side. You won’t be able to find out anything even if you meet them.”

“Ah. Don’t worry. I’ll find out even if I have to torture them. Your investigators didn’t do things like torture, did they?”

“I couldn’t arbitrarily torture nobles from other countries. But Ian, aren’t they your family?”

“What does that matter?”

Even though they are family, Ian had no intention of being lenient with them.

Since he was going to wipe them out anyway, what big problem would there be if he tortured them a little more?

Osnen, watching Ian’s nonchalant reaction, admired him.

“I don’t think I can even imitate that immense confidence that I don’t know where it comes from. They are nobles. Will it be okay?”

“What’s not okay? If they make a fuss, I’ll just say they were in the process of inheriting the heir position.”

And what about the guys who can’t accept that?

I’ll just feed them the Demonic Divine Art.

Osnen, nodding at Ian’s calm reaction, spat out.

“If you become enemies with the Scarlet Kingdom, I recommend going to the Empire.”

“Your Highness!”

Lily and Hebin said in surprise, but he ignored them.

Instead of answering, Ian just shrugged and walked away.

As he walked away, the two desperately said to Osnen.

“How can you treat such an arrogant and rude person…….”

“Ian Brandon. Just because he’s strong, is that who Your Highness judges people by?”

“He’s someone who can be beneficial in many ways.”

“The Princess will use that to attack the Crown Prince.”

The 1st Princess, Osnen’s biggest rival, will try to use that as an excuse.

He said nonchalantly to the worried two.

“And Ian hasn’t even said that he’ll take my hand yet. It’s your mistake to make such hasty judgments. Fix it.”

“Ah. Yes…….”

“I understand…….”

As the dispirited twins lowered their heads, Osnen headed straight to the dormitory.

Ian finished his daily routine, worshiping at the Temple of the Sun and then returning to worship at the Temple of the Moon.

As Ian returned to the dormitory and packed his bags, Grajin asked with his arms crossed.

“Will there really be any traces of them left in Baron Brandon’s territory?”

“I don’t know? Maybe not?”

If there were any traces recorded, Kirke would have already found out.

But since Kirke hasn’t found anything, in the end, we have to investigate through inquiries or confessions, through people’s memories.

That’s why I got two more days of vacation.

“It’ll be over soon.”

As Ian said lightly and tried to leave, Grajin threw a pass.

“What is it?”

“You’re going through the Falkin territory, right? There’s an archeological society there. If you show them this, the carriage is free.”

“I’m not going to take a carriage.”

“It’s better to have it anyway. The archeological society will be subtly helpful.”

Ian looked at Grajin’s archeological society pass and put it in his pocket.

“I’ll use it well.”

“Then see you in three days.”

After receiving his greeting, Ian left the dormitory right away.

After passing through the academy gate, he headed straight to the gate [teleportation portal].

“Where are you going?”

“Let’s go to Falkin Territory.”

“I will activate the gate.”

After a while, a crack appears in the gate.

Ian paid the wizard the fee and went inside, passing through the gate and looking around.

After receiving Kirke’s simple report and coming down from the gate located in the mountains, the castle of the lord’s direct control can be seen in the distance.

But there was no need to go there.

Ian glanced at the moonlit sky and stretched his body.

“Can you figure out where the leader of the Sword Flower Unit is?”

“Are you still struggling there without catching even one of them? Seriously.”

After investigating Blue Moon before, I asked him for a favor.

Quite some time has passed, but I checked because there was still no answer, and he’s still there.

Ian was dumbfounded and put Myane in his bag.

“Kirke. Start guiding the way. I’m going to Brandon Territory and then to meet him too.”

“S, save me!”

A terrible scream was heard from the darkness to the south between Kirke’s route guidance voice.

Ian turned his eyes to that side.

From quite a distance away, a priest of the Sun Church, covered in sweat and dust, was seen desperately running.
