Chapter 114: 114

Episode 114

I hardly slept on the day I was evacuated to the Academy.

Thanks to the consideration of the professors, I was able to get water, food, and warm blankets and stay in the western spire.

There was an old bed so I could sleep on it, but I couldn’t get any sleep at all.

In the end, I stayed up all night looking at the maps I got from the professors.

It was in preparation for the situation in which we had to escape the Academy.

If I know the way to the place around the Academy, I can use teleportation.

‘I wish there was a better way, but this is the best way.’

There was a possibility that we could not stay in the Academy until the end.

Even if fewer people were coming to the west spire, we would definitely be caught if we stayed here for a long time.

‘Because Iker has broadcast it nationally to offer me to him.’

There was no guarantee that all the Academy students would be on my side.

Therefore, it was highly likely that we would have to leave this place on a day when someone caught us.

“Yerine, wouldn’t it be better for you to sleep now?”

Cassius opened his mouth carefully.

“At least it’s safe now, so I think it’ll be okay.”

Even Cassius, who says so, did not sleep at night.

I also told him that he could sleep if he wanted to, but he refused, saying that he also couldn’t sleep well.

‘But I’m sure it’s the same for everyone who can’t fall asleep in this situation.’

“And I don’t know what else might happen today.”

I shook my head with a smile at Cassius, who was talking like that.

“It’s okay, Cassius, I’m good at staying up all night.”

“Still…….”

It was just then.

It flashed outside the dark window, and there was thunderous thunder.

The sound was so loud that I flinched at the moment when I was looking at the map.

“…….It’s raining.”

Cassius muttered, looking out the window in a low voice.

It was at about 6:50 a.m.

It was time for the sky, which was originally black, to turn blue, for the sun to stick out its head and dye the world with bright golden light.

But the outside world was dark and humid.

“It’s raining heavily.”

The rain hit the window, and the sound was so loud that my eyes moved to the temple.

I got up from my seat and slowly walked towards the window.

Through the black window, nothing was seen.

“Iker must be very anxious, too.”

“What?”

Cassius narrowed his forehead and asked.

“What do you mean?”

“I’m not sure, but I feel like Iker is having this rain.”

I talked looking out the window where nothing was seen because it was dark.

“As we heard he addressed all over the country earlier. The mana is going to be consumed far beyond imagination, but if we look at it, it seems like he has a lot of magical power.”

Cassius bowed his head to my words and answered quietly.

“Well, he killed a high-ranking official, father, and mother too.”

“I wonder if that would make it rain.”

I returned to Cassius’s side and sat on the floor.

“Those monsters hate light and heat, so they’ve cleaned up even the sun.”

“Or maybe because your speciality is in flame magic, that he had this planned.”

“It could be.”

I leaned my back against the bedpost and tilted my head.

The ceiling of the round spire, made of bricks, was visible.

“Anyway, that kid is not normal.”

“I agree.”

“I don’t know why he staged a coup even though he’s already decided to become an emperor one day because he’s a crown prince, and I don’t know why he has to go after me even though he already has enough mana.”

I sighed and turned my head toward Cassius.

“Do you have any idea? Why would Iker do that?”

“Well, I don’t know because I haven’t talked to Iker that much.”

Cassius said in a calm voice.

Unlike his voice, however, his eyes seemed to burn like flames.

“But I can vaguely predict why he did this. First of all, this guy didn’t like the way he was notified by his father. And he wanted to succeed to the throne as soon as possible.”

Then Cassius continued the story with his fingers crossed.

“And he didn’t like the nobles. That’s probably why he got rid of the 7 Imperial Families and grabbed the Housekeepers first.”

Get rid of 7 Imperial Families.

The words are heavily heartbreaking.

“…… will the kids gonna be okay?”

Cassius couldn’t answer my words immediately.

Because I know that the 7 Imperial Families successors are under the greatest threat at this time.

“They’ll be fine.”

Cassius’ voice, neither high nor low, resonated in the room.

“Because they’re strong.”

I put my hand on Cassius’s hand on the floor.

Cassius looked at me with his transparent gold, astonished.

Feeling Casius’ warmth in that state, I opened my mouth after a long time.

“I know there’s not a single good thing to say.”

But I couldn’t stand it.

I knew I shouldn’t be weak.

But wouldn’t I be able to allow this?

“Everyone, I miss them.”

Something seemed to rise from the neck.

“At least, just once.”

It probably won’t happen.

Academia’s students were among the top elimination targets for Iker, except for me and Cassius.

In that situation, if Iker heard that they were hiding me, the attack would be accelerated.

Cassius opened his arms and hugged me on the shoulder without saying a word.

“I’m sorry, I couldn’t take care of them.”

I leaned my head still on his broad and firm shoulders and relaxed.

I thought I would fall asleep for the first time since I came here because of the soft texture on my cheek and the familiar smell.

“But there’s still a chance. The people’s reputation for my father wasn’t so bad, and there are people like the Academy who oppose Iker’s coup.”

Casius slowly swept my back and said.

“Yerine, I mean, we’ll see them all again.”

Again.

A corner of my heart was tingled when the word echoed.

If I could go back.

If I can be with those who have been the joy of my new life again.

If I can be happy again.

I grasped Cassius’ collar in my hand.

If I could get it all back, I was ready to do anything.

“Thank you.”

It was a new life that I happened to have, but I had no intention of putting it in vainly.

I didn’t even intend to give my precious things to someone who wanted to take my life away.

“I’m glad I have Cassius.”

I swore at Cassius’s smiling face.

I will never lose as much as those closest to me,

Even in broad daylight, the rain didn’t stop.

“Yerine, I think you’re right. I guess you’re right. I don’t think I’ve seen the rain ever stop falling for a moment like this.”

“That’s a shame, really.”

I saw the principal of the Academy preparing measures mainly for light and thermal magic users, but I was slightly worried.

‘For now, my blue flame will only weaken a little and not extinguish……..’

Still, it was not that there was no problem in the fighting.

‘I can’t help it. Even if I overdo it, I’ll have to fight with maximum mana.’

Just then, I heard a knock on the door.

After exchanging eyes with Cassius, I put my index finger on my lips.

I couldn’t answer recklessly because I couldn’t tell who was outside the door just by knocking on the door.

“It’s Professor Frain.”

I swept my chest to the voice of Professor Fraine, who was heard from beyond the door.

However, I could not be completely relieved yet.

If someone takes a magic pill that can temporarily change their appearance to someone else’s, their voice can also be modified to that person.

“Lux Maart Room.”

Cassius, who correctly set the code that Professor Fraine had set in advance, stood up from his seat and tried to release the confinement spell on the door.

“Everyone, I have something to tell you before I open the door.”

Cassius paused at Professor Fraine’s words.

“There are people you must see. And there’s something I have to tell you.”

People, we must to see?

Cassius hesitated and put his hand on the doorknob.

Looking at me with eyes that can’t be judged.

“I’m sorry I didn’t judge you freely. However, all of these people have judged that they are trustworthy and believe that they will be of help to you.”

For some reason, I thought I knew who the people came to see us.

I wondered which of them thought of coming to see us first and how they knew we were here.

But more than that, I wanted to see their faces.

“So, is that gonna be okay?”

I turned my head to face Cassius.

He was looking at me with his hand on the doorknob.

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.}

He was on the verge of lifting the confinement spell.

When I nodded slightly, Cassius also nodded to answer.

Afterwards, a massive door opened with a click.

“Yerine!”

Astra, Rachel, and Erica ran through the door.

“Oh, my God, Yerine, what do I do…….”

Rachel cried and held my hand tightly.

“We were really worried because there was nothing we could do after hearing the prince’s voice yesterday.”

Astra said with teary eyes.

“I’m glad you’re okay……….”

Seeing her like that, I wanted to tell her that I was okay and that she didn’t have to worry, but I couldn’t.

I feel like my throat is stuffed up.

“Yerine.”

When I turned to the voice that the low-key called me, a girl with pink hair stood.

In her transparent eyes resembling tourmaline, heavy tears were dripping.

She stood still so I approached her first, crying and unable to open her mouth.

And patted her hair gently.

“Erica, I’m here. It’s okay.”

Erica held my collar tightly and said in a voice full of tears.

“Again, I thought I’d never see you again……..”

I smiled faintly at her for saying so.

“No, it’s not like that.”

Maybe it was not to Erica, but it was a word I said to myself.

When Erica wiped away her tears, Cassius, who was staring at the floor with a mixed face, and Professor Fraine, who was biting her lips with a sad expression, caught my eyes.

And the guy with the silver hair.

“…….”

When our eyes met for the first time, Eugene couldn’t say anything.

Unlike other children, he wasn’t even crying.

With his trembling blue eyes, he just looked at me.

“Eugene.”

I called out his name and reached out my hand.

Eugene’s eyes turned to my hand.

He took turns looking at my hands and face several times.

As if my hands were a marvellous creature.

And carefully held my hand.

“…….”

His hands were cold.

Looks like he’s been standing outside for a long time.

“Yerine.”

As soon as I raised my head, his eyes were looking at me like a blue wave.

And as the blue waves surrounded my body, Eugene rushed to me and hugged me tightly.

“Yerine……”

It was a trembling voice.

It was the second time he called me by name, not by my last name.
