Chapter 250
Chapter 250
Epilogue (Complete)
Lucy Mayril is a hero of the Empire.
He was praised for his various achievements by the Cloel royal family and received various commendations gold and silver treasures and various honorary positions.
Despite this Emperor Cloel did not give her any title or fiefdom. Even though she was given a baronetcy by even Jenica who was far less powerful by force.
As a wise gentleman he realized that a title would only serve as a shackle for a talented person named Lucy Mayril. Since he doesn’t have the capacity to take responsibility for the title in the first place it’s close to just throwing away a territory.
In the end Lucy just left Sylvania Academy without changing her status and entrusted herself to the Ross Taylor mansion. She decided that she would have nothing more to do on Aken Island on her own.
Lucy Mayril who had used up several years’ worth of magical power in the final battle was in fact nothing more than an ordinary girl. She needed a force to officially protect her for at least a few years.
Should I say it’s the price or is it because I’m not particularly interested in wealth? After handing over the enormous amount of wealth and honor bestowed by the imperial family to Duke Ross Taylor Lucy spent her days confining herself to a room in his mansion and recovering her magic day by day.
The day she regains her magic the Rosstaylor territory protected by the two-headed carriages Yenika and Lucy will become a truly impregnable sacred place.
She was a much-talked-about person among the people of the territory and in fact Lucy’s magical power recovered faster than expected.
However what Lucy Mayril did not expect was… Ed who was looking for someone capable of controlling her scouted Belle Maia.
– ‘Miss Lucy. ‘You need to move your arms more gracefully when lifting the teacup.’
– ‘Miss Lucy you shouldn’t spill any crumbs.’
– ‘I’m sorry Miss Lucy but the hem of your dress is touching the garden floor.’
– ‘Miss Lucy… ‘
– ‘Miss Lucy.’
Lady Lucy Lady Lucy Lady Lucy Lady Lucy Lady Lucy.
The two maids who follow Lucy around all day and assist her are from Ofilis Hall. Not only is he competent as Velmaia’s direct subordinate but he is also fearless against Groussi.
In the first place Lucy has lost her magic so she can’t run away.
Lucy sat at the tea table and spoke with her complexion turning pale.
“Please save me… ”
Tracyana rubbed her forehead regretfully. She knew what Belle Maia had said that she was responsible for it.
Her strong will to turn Lucy into a human being before she regains her strength was conveyed. She can truly be said to be a responsible person.
“… ”
Whatever it is the reason I keep sticking to the Ross Taylor estate is probably because I like it here.
In just a few years she will return as a rare genius wizard and all kinds of organizations and magic towers are drooling over her.
Nevertheless Lucy Mayril chose to remain at the Duke’s residence with Ed Rothtaylor. The reason is obvious. Everyone in her mansion already knew that she had an open crush on Ed Ross Taylor.
“Lu Lucy… ”
Yenica put down her teacup and quietly looked at Lucy.
Yenica’s biggest worry was the existence of Lucy Mayril.
Ed Rothtaylor treated Yenika specially but the same was true for Lucy Mayril.
Whenever he had to return to the duke’s residence he would always check on her condition and personally check to see if she was in any discomfort and if her life was okay.
Lucy Mayril doesn’t seem to like Ed’s attention either so she occasionally hugs him or sits on his lap… She flirted with Ed as if she was showing off but no one could stop her.
In fact he is a VIP among VIPs who receives special treatment in the Duke’s residence. Even Tanya the owner of the Duke’s mansion does not treat Lucy carelessly.
Tracyana’s impressions as she watched the scene were as follows.
‘How on earth is the person called my advisor sitting in his mansion with several women around…? ?’
It may have been an expression of his extraordinary will to take responsibility for everyone he owed money to but… In fact if you look at its appearance it appears to be nothing more than a main forestry set up.
I don’t think it’s just Tracyana who knows the situation but just because she can see what’s going on there might be rumors going around among the greedy nobles that she’s an incredible person. Well it’s a blessing to be self-employed.
The future was clear to Tracyana.
Yenika hesitantly lifts the teacup and brings it to her mouth and Lucy rests her chin on the table with a blank face but is subtly aware of Yenika’s gaze.
The two men as well as the women visiting the mansion don’t seem to have any intention of giving up on Ed Rothtaylor easily.
Probably not even Saint Clarice Deputy Lortel or Imperial Princess Selaha… I have no intention of giving up on Ed Rosstaylor.
As they are all considered the most powerful figures in the empire compromise will not be easy. There are many people who want it but Ed Rothtaylor has only one body. then… The future to come is not difficult to picture.
‘You are walking down a thorny path… ‘
As I said embracing someone requires a large vessel.
Tracyana prayed that her advisor would have broad courage like Hahae.
This is because the things that needed to be included were too vast.
*“Sorry it’s too late.”
It was about twenty minutes later that Belle Maia who had gone to look for Tanya arrived.
However he did not appear with Tanya. In the end she couldn’t find it.
I learned this story later but it is said that Tanya Rosstaylor has a habit of disappearing from time to time even when she is busy working.
Tracyana had a blank expression on her face but Belle Maia approached her shaking her hands as if it was nothing surprising… She then took a quick look around the tea table.
Then after resting his chin and thinking for a moment he sat down with his knees bent and tried to lift the tablecloth.
Then Tanya came out from underneath it.
“… ”
?Traceiana had been making a blank expression ever since she came to the mansion.
Tanya neatly dressed in a shirt and skirt along with an old-fashioned matriarch’s cloak came out from under the table as if it were natural and cleared her throat with a chuckle.
“W thank you for coming all the way here… “Lady Tracyana.”
“… ”
“I met him when he was at Sylvania as the student council president. “As the owner of Duke Ross Taylor’s residence this is my first time meeting you in a welcoming manner.”
“I… Since when… Below that… ?”
“… When do you think this will happen? ?”
Needless to say it was from the beginning.
Is it possible that there are any normal people in this Duke Ross Taylor residence?
That thought came to me out of nowhere but it was rude anyway. This is the continent’s largest dungeon.
And in fact it is in front of Duchess Tanya Rothtaylor who controls the ducal residence.
When I stood up for a moment and tried to bow my head Tanya waved her arm said it was okay and sat down in the remaining seat at the tea table.
“Because I like being in dark places… I embarrassed you. There are times when I like that warm strangely calming feeling. Give it a try when your head gets too busy or you feel tired. “Is it worth recommending?”
“… ”
“The place I usually recommend is the closet or something… It’s good to place it under your work desk and if possible it’s even better if you cover it with a blanket. That feeling of sticking and pressing… ”
master.
When Belle Maia called lightly Tanya opened her half-moon eyes and looked at Belle for a moment.
The meaning behind Bell’s words was meaningless. Please pin it and maintain your dignity.
Maybe it was because Tanya felt a bit relaxed in her shoulders because she was meeting an alumnus for the first time in a while.
Tanya pulled on the cloak she was wearing straightened her posture and spoke.
“Well Lady Tracyana seems to be very interested in my brother’s relationships with women.”
After hearing those words Traciana was like “Oops.”
Anyway too much has been said about the Nam family’s romantic history. In fact it is not something that cannot be said in a friendly exchange with fellow student Yenika but if Tanya the owner of the mansion was listening to all of those words it would be a completely different story.
Duchess Tanya Rothtaylor is one of the hearts of this empire in fact second only to the emperor.
Although he doesn’t have an authoritarian attitude and speaks openly… However this should not make this side any easier.
Tracyana is already seeing through it.
Although she seems childish and her behavior is light that girl’s perspective and psychology are anything but light.
Just by glancing sideways you can gauge a person’s condition and calculate your interests in an instant while pretending not to care.
Three years as the student council president of Sylvania Academy and two years as the head of the Ross Taylor family.
It’s enough years to turn even a childish girl into a slut. Even light and comfortable actions are all within the scope of calculation.
Tracyana saw through that fact and bowed her head.
oh.
And just hearing that somewhat relaxed word Tracyana noticed.
This girl even realized that Tracyana had penetrated her inner self. Tracy Ana swallowed her dry saliva feeling that it was somehow playing in her palm.
“There is no need to make you so uncomfortable. At least the person sitting at this tea table treats me comfortably without being tied to my status or authority.”
When I spoke with a smile Yenika answered with a smile.
“That was possible because Tanya treated me comfortably in the first place. “I’ve known you for a long time.”
“… Then please leave these maids behind… please… ”
Despite Lucy’s earnest request Tanya pretended not to hear. The order to keep a maid attached to Lucy was given directly by Ed.
“Anyway I think Lady Tracyana has come to see my brother… Sadly my brother passed away on Aken Island the day before yesterday. “It’s not long until the new student selection exam that my brother is in charge of.”
“Yes yes… ? Professor Ed? then..
yes. I see you are mixed. “If it’s an urgent delivery it might be better to go back quickly right?”
Tracyana slumped down in her seat.
I came here after going through all that hardship but it was mixed. He felt like God had abandoned him.
Finally he takes a deep breath and speaks.
Yes… Then I guess I should go back quickly. “You must be busy but thank you for your hospitality.”
no. I also have to go back to Sylvania when the semester is over so I’ll see you again. “It’s a professor-to-student relationship so you don’t have to speak up.”
“Is that so? All right.
Will I be able to stop talking at that time? That’s what I thought but I decided to accept it for now.
and… It seems like I’ve said too much unnecessary things about my family’s personal history. sorry.
“Ugh no. You don’t need to worry about that. You may be curious because you are a person who gets talked about a lot. And he is also a professor who is in charge of Lady Tracy Anna so of course you are curious about many things.”
“Oh yes… Thank you for your understanding… ”
Tracyana was grateful that Tanya said she was okay.
Then I suddenly felt a sense of discomfort.
however… The fact that my advisor is Professor Ed… how… ?”
Come to think of it I never even told Belle that fact. This is because revealing too much about the internal affairs of the university is not a very good thing.
“Oh you seem to have forgotten…” “I’m also the student council president of Sylvania Academy right?”
It was only after hearing that fact that Traceiana realized it.
There is no way for him to escape from the clutches of this duchess.
He is a person who brought a half-ruined ducal family to this point in a short period of time. Although he was quite young he clearly felt that his bowl was different.
Only then do you see the picture.
Tanya Rosstaylor is the final decision-maker who decides everything in this duchy of Rosstaylor.
There is no way she wouldn’t know about Ed Ross-Taylor’s actions or relationships. Ed’s future seems to be slowly drawing into Tracyana’s head.
In the eyes of this girl who would do anything for the prosperity of the Ross Taylor family her brother’s shining interpersonal relationship would seem like a treasure of gold and silver.
A rare spiritist. A historical genius wizard. Princess of the Empire. The saintess of Seonghwangdo. Circumference at the top.
This girl has no intention of giving up on anything. Ed Rosstaylor will be ready to do whatever it takes to get them all drunk.
If Ed has a girl like this behind him this is the future he will eventually reach…
‘I’ll have to become as close as possible while working as an advisor this time.’
Sadly Tracyana Bloomriver was also a snob among snobs.
*I have developed a habit of smoking tobacco.
It was because he hung out with senior professor Kalide too often after becoming a professor.
He was a professor who didn’t shave properly and was always asleep with a book covering his face or talking in a daze but his skills were outstanding in their own way.
“Whoa… ”
After using magic to extinguish the candle I looked up at the sky for a moment.
The sunlight that gently seeps through the leaves occasionally stings my eyes. Still the cool breeze felt good and I felt like it was refreshing my head.
In front of a private laboratory at the edge of the northern forest.
After returning to Aken Island for the first time in a while the first thing I did was check out the facilities I had set up in the Northern Forest.
The campfire in the center with its flames fluttering had grown considerably in size and had become a huge blaze.
Yenika’s cabin was converted into a warehouse and my cabin was converted into a large building and became a personal laboratory.
It’s not often that a private laboratory like this is provided at the undergraduate level but when I said I liked this place they provided neat facilities. I felt very cared for in one way or another.
When I come to the northern forest and sit quietly looking at the camp like this I feel overwhelmed.
Close your eyes gently.
And when I quietly close my eyes and slowly open them what I see is the penniless ruined nobleman who was kicked out of Ofilis Hall sitting quietly on a bench.
The boy was kicked out and ended up on the street with nothing but that didn’t stop him from living somehow.
When I came to the northern forest I put down my wooden bag and sat for a while.
Eventually I felt like I had to do something so I gathered large leaves and stems to make a small wooden shelter.
The story begins in that small shabby wooden shelter.
A small campfire is set up in front of it. The boy approaches and sits down on the tree stump in front of him.
Make a workbench drying rack fishing rod wooden spear etc. and arrange them next to it.
The appearance of the wooden shelter which is a temporary shelter gradually becomes more realistic. Occasionally a girl would bring something to eat and chat away a girl would take a nap in the wooden shelter and then leave a junior would pass by while exercising or a merchant would come and make an interesting suggestion.
Before you know it a small wooden warehouse is built and a nice cabin goes up.
The tools that the boy was making while sitting on the tree stump got better in appearance as time went by.
The size of the campfire has grown and is now large enough for fifteen people to sit comfortably around it.
The sun rises and sets.
It rains and snows. As the years change the cabin camp grows.
When you open your eyes you are now sitting between buildings that are now incomparably clean.
I quietly watched the firewood burning and then I picked up the butt and threw it in.
I survived.
There are questions that inevitably follow those who survive.
It is a question about how to live.
The past continued to become the present and soon it will become the future.
Now there is nothing left that I know about ‘Sylvania’s Failed Sword Saint’.
Because after running and running I arrived at the end of the story.
However there is no ending to the story of the world. It is a story that will ultimately end in death but it must continue as long as one does not die.
“… ”
To tell you the conclusion… The ‘cliff point’ the future where everything Sylvania had observed would end did not come.
Two years have passed since Bellbroke’s death and although the game’s scenario has been completely completed the world still moves on.
Every scenario has an end.
The ‘cliff point’ she observed is when all scenarios are completed and the world closes… Was it such endless darkness?
So as long as I come to this world like this and exist as a variable and look ahead… Will such a dark future never come? Is the world moving towards a new trend because of my existence?
Or is the apocalypse actually just postponed and the world is still moving toward eternal darkness?
There is no way to check that. The reason is simple. Because the future is unknown.
Until now we have taken the facts of the future for granted and responded to crises based on that information… That was truly unusual.
The future is inherently mysterious.
So we live.
Because we can never know what the future is we try to live as people first.
“You are here.”
At that time I heard someone calling me from behind.
I quickly turned my head and saw a familiar face Tailley McLaure.
I was rather confused as to why this boy had come all the way here to visit me.
This is because a lot has happened but we have not yet achieved anything like reconciliation.
Tailly came and sat down on the other side of the fire. Then she put down the sheath she was holding and quietly lowered her head.
“Thank you so much.”
It was an unexpected greeting. Even when I graduated I didn’t greet anyone in this manner.
“… “If you think about it you’ll be graduating soon too.”
“… yes. Senior Ed took up a professorship as soon as he graduated so we’ve been seeing her all the time but I don’t think we’ll ever see each other anymore after we graduate.”
Even as Taily said that she did not raise her lowered head.
“Why are you greeting me so suddenly? “All business has already been completed.”
“Yes but… When I look back on my undergraduate career it was always Ed who contributed at important points.”
I didn’t necessarily want to make him realize that fact. This is because I wanted Taily McLaure to walk down the path of a hero. From the beginning Tailley had no choice but to misunderstand.
Thanks to this Tailly was able to gradually become stronger and cut down Bellbroke as the main character of the stage just as I wanted. Honestly from my perspective that was enough.
Now that I’ve done everything that needs to be done I have no more feelings left for Taily.
“I’m sorry for not being able to say thank you in time. There were many misunderstandings and there were many days when bad feelings accumulated… In the end senior Ed… No Professor Ed was right.”
“There is no need to package it too much. In fact you must have suffered a lot from your perspective.”
I didn’t really have the heart to blame Tailly. Because sometimes I was the one who made things more difficult for Taily.
You did a good job and stayed until the end of the stage to do what you had to do.
There’s nothing else to say other than that.
“I just wanted to say hello to you like that. “Before I graduate.”
I looked at Tailly as she spoke and then nodded without saying anything.
“… okay.
Because there was nothing more to say than that.
Tailly picks up the sword again.
He has now become a swordsman who will leave his mark in history. He will graduate from Sylvania Academy and live a life of adventure and travel of his own with Ayla.
I will become a hero who leaves behind many achievements and lives a brilliant life.
Tailly passes by me.
To walk out onto the path beyond the long stretch of forest again.
What suddenly came to mind was when I was sitting in my room taking care of my injured body and staring blankly at the computer screen.
Even in the adventures and travels that unfolded on screen Tailly never gave in to trials.
He lived a life as a hero receiving all the spotlight on stage.
Even though it was a story beyond the screen for me at the time when I was frustrated with life and stuck in my room unable to adjust to peace… It could also be said that it was salvation in its own way.
Even if it is a made-up story and even if it is a story that does not apply to the extras off stage… There are times when I feel like I am being saved if I just stare blankly.
Stories of people who have overcome ordeals have the power to save someone.
“Hey Taily.”
When I called out Tailly who was about to leave he turned to me again with a puzzled look on his face.
While contemplating what to say I roughly threw the poker I had been burning into the fire and just threw it away.
“Have a hard time.”
That’s the only story.
Tailly quietly looks at my back then says thank you and leaves.
The road diverges and merges but continues along.
It continues as long as life allows.
*The number of people wanting to become new students at Sylvania Academy has not decreased.
Although there was a disaster that left great pain the Academy still produced many heroes and its reputation grew day by day.
Taily McLore the sword saint who slayed the dragon. Ayla Tris who inherited the name of the great sage.
Ziggs Eiffelstein the great hero of the northern steppes. Clevious Nortondale a swordsman who mastered the art of blood swordsmanship.
Elvira Anniston alchemist of innovation. Fenia Elias Cloel the next emperor of the Cloel Empire.
Even Lortel Kecheln the next CEO of Elte Trading Company.
The main character generation graduates under a shining light. He receives praise at the graduation ceremony and continues his life as a hero who will leave his mark in the history of the empire.
Sylvania Academy which was their cradle still stands tall on Aken Island.
To produce new heroes and nurture talented people who will create the next era.
And many new students flock to the academy to become a part of it.
“Wow wow… ”
A boy holding a magic wand tightly looked at the new student candidates gathered at the entrance to the northern forest of Aken Island.
They are all descendants of prestigious families. It is full of all kinds of noblemen and celebrities that even a boy from a country background would recognize at a glance.
Among the crowd gathered with only the desire to become a new student at Sylvania Academy the boy’s childhood friend patted him on the back.
“Don’t be discouraged Felim!”
“Eh Elia… ! “Someone is freaking out!”
“Just looking at you you’re shaking from despair! In a place like this you have to be more confident! ruler! Don’t show off as a country bumpkin! “You can’t lose to anyone with effort!”
The girl who gives courage to the trembling boy also came to enroll at Sylvania Academy.
As I watched him confidently patting the boy’s back while holding a large cane tightly the boy soon came to his senses and gained courage.
“Yeah… I can’t lose by working hard… !”
As the boy was gathering his wits a tall man came out through the crowd of students.
It was full of murmurs. This is because all of the new student candidates gathered here knew the man’s face.
– ‘It’s Ed Ross Taylor… !’
– ‘It’s real…’ ! paper… He came himself… !’
– ‘Shh… I can hear you… ! Seeing a celebrity for the first time?! ‘That’s because he’s the professor in charge of selecting new students so he’ll come in person!’
The age difference does not seem to be much but just showing up wearing a cape and the title of professor gives the impression of being intimidating to those around you.
Assistant Professor Traceiana who came in after him and was taking notes on everything also felt like she was pressing down on the students around her with just her energy.
Eventually a man came out in front of the crowd. The assistant professor who followed him ordered silence and soon the area became completely quiet.
The man who glanced at everyone for a moment with his back to the interior of the North Forest spoke.
“It took a lot of hard work to come a long way. Everyone has their own circumstances and would like to enter Sylvania but… Unfortunately only half of these students can enroll in Sylvania.”
Ed Rosstaylor calmly spoke only the facts with an expressionless face.
There was a strange sense of elation among the students when they actually heard the voice of Professor Ed Rosstaylor whom they had only heard about through rumors. They realized that they had really come to Sylvania Academy.
When Ed Ross-Taylor looked at the assistant professor and gave instructions Assistant Professor Tracy Anna raised her magic.
Soon all the illusion disks installed in the northern forest activated scattering illusions in the form of various lower-level monsters and berserk lower-level spirits within the forest. The illusion itself will not cause physical damage but if attacked you will suffer aftereffects that include mental pain.
Inside the forest monsters made strange noises and berserk spirits roared. The sound came through the trees and all the way to the entrance where everyone was gathered.
The freshmen candidates are beginners with brilliant backgrounds but no practical experience. They all swallowed their dry saliva and started to get nervous.
“You just have to cross the forest from here and reach the northern cliff area on the other side. The evaluation content itself is not that complicated. There is no need to choose between means and methods.”
Ed Rosstaylor spoke with his eyes tightly closed.
“Survive.”
That one concise and clear requirement was what Ed Ross-Taylor asked of prospective students.
Because it was the most important thing.
Survive at the Academy
– Completed –
review
Hello this is Korita.
I remember posting my first serial in the winter of 2020 when it was so cold that I was shivering. When I came to my senses it was two years later the summer of ’22. Time flies so fast.
It seems like a lot has happened both personally and professionally during the 19 months that I have been serializing Surviving at the Academy Awards.
Actually this is my first time writing a novel this long.
Each 250-episode episode has an average of 10000 characters so usually about 400 episodes were written… Now that I’ve finished the work I have a lot of respect for established writers who have produced high-quality works.
How much arduous work must the established writers have endured over and over again?
As someone who finished a full-length novel for the first time this is unimaginable.
I have often imagined that I would finish a piece of work completely and write a review of it.
Now that it’s become a reality and I’m writing a review I’m actually not sure what to write.
Let’s express our gratitude to our readers. The reason I can keep writing like this is because there are people who read.
I try to imagine such a stereotypical thank you message with all kinds of rhetoric but in fact the more obvious facts are said the less sincere it feels.
So I won’t go into detail. However it is a fact as obvious as it is obvious. There’s just no need to talk about it at length.
Thank you so much to everyone who read this novel.
I have never forgotten that the reason I can write anything is because there are people who read it.
If you have read the story of “Surviving at the Academy” you will know that there is still a little bit left.
The story of Pulan’s highest-ranking wind spirit the story of Oldek’s old fox Slog and the story of Zelan and Glokt’s secret remain unresolved.
And although the main character Ed Rothtaylor has successfully confirmed the ending of the story he still lives as an outsider in the world.
I think we’ll be able to tell a little more about Ed Rothtaylor’s story of how he meets a new friend and settles down in the world.
The side story is probably… I think I will write it in a free serial style. Like the days of free serials. In fact I think that was the time when I was able to focus most fully on writing.
I have many memories of hitting myself on the forehead because I was pressed for time and ended up regretting some things and not realizing them until later.
Still I think I will write with the mindset of posting at least one episode every three days. Just like it was back then.
However rather than confirming it as a promise to readers… I think I’ll leave it as a promise to myself for now.
I will take a break for about a week and then come back with Yenica Palover Side Story: Wind Flower on Monday June 13th.
There was a lot of talk and a lot of trouble but thank you for staying with me until the end of the story.
i love you.
