The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Lucy Mayril (2)

“Anyway, cats are so unpredictable that they never behave as intended.”

Senior Professor of Magic Science Flavin’s classes are very popular. The content is so rich that there is a lot to learn, and the grades are generous, so the classrooms at Flavin are bound to be packed with students every semester.

“When I ask him to pet me because he thinks he is being touched, he does everything to look noble and expensive, but when I become busy and not interested in him, he only starts to cling to me and flirt with me… It’s so ridiculous that he only seems to treat me like a master when he’s in a hurry.”

Even at first glance, he looks dandy with his long, moderately grown hair and his unshaven chin swept up. There is a reason why it is popular among female students.

If you feel like the atmosphere is going down during the class, you can say that he is a truly skilled person as he has the skill to brighten the mood by saying various nonsense.

“In the first place, all cats are of that kind, so if you want to treat them as you wish, it’s best to give up interest in the end. Among the students, there will be people who aim to become proper contract familiars or magical creatures… If you look at feline creatures, Try it.

Rather than trying to force their favor and become friends, if you just draw their attention and take the attitude that it’s okay… Surprisingly, that person will start flirting with you first. Anyway, this is harder than dating.

”

The sound of laughter and applause was heard. It spreads among the students. It seems like the atmosphere has been revitalized in some way.

“Well, surprisingly, there are examples of feline creatures in the monster ecology course… If I had to pick an example…”

While the students were focused, he quickly moved on to the content of the lecture naturally. As expected, no one can match Professor Flavin’s teaching skills in the Monster Ecology class.

Anyway, I’ve caught up with the bachelor’s curriculum itself, so these days, my preparatory study progress is getting ahead of my bachelor’s progress.

My grades, which were at the bottom, have now improved a lot, and now, if you just rank the written courses, there are not many students who are above me.

Still, you must not let down your guard. If you do not have a sufficient foundation in written grades, you will not be able to achieve good grades in practical exams. I focused my attention on Professor Flavin’s class.

“…I’ll end here today. In the next lecture, we will consider the ecological differences between gremlins and ogres. As related material, Volume 3 of Introduction to Monster Ecology… You can borrow it from the student library or get it personally. does not matter.”

The class, which I had been so focused on without noticing the passing of time, came to an end, and Professor Flavin added before ending the lecture.

“That’s right. And student Ed, would you please come to the lab after the lecture?”

I have never had the experience of being personally called by a professor and anything good happened. I had an ominous feeling, so I thought about quietly asking the reason, but Professor Flavin answered before I could.

“I received an official letter from the bachelor’s department. I have something to ask about the bachelor’s scholarship.”

On the contrary, it was welcome news on my part.

*

“You know about the bachelor’s scholarship system, right? Among the second-year students, there are fifteen more besides Anis and Leon.”

“It’s a system where you get a certain amount of tuition discounted in exchange for making a certain contribution to academic work, right?”

“Yes, I know exactly.”

Despite his easy-going and gruff appearance, Professor Flavin treats his students with respect and treats them with respect no matter who they interact with.

Thanks to such a straightforward attitude, there is an image that work is always done neatly, but when I look at my personal laboratory, which is in a state of disarray due to little tidiness, I wonder if this is not the case again. Anyway, he is a human being with nothing consistent about his appearance or attitude.

I can’t tell if he is a static and calm person or an easy-going and free-spirited person. Just looking at it, it seems like they’ll immediately criticize it informally…

“Recently, there have been some financial issues at the bachelor’s department, but anyway, the urgent fire has been extinguished… Right now, there is an even shortage of manpower. Let’s hire more bachelor’s scholarship students.” “There is an agenda, so I would like to recommend Ed. The student himself seems to have the will.”

“I’m okay with it if it reduces the burden of tuition.”

“Yes. I also recommend it. You may be very busy right now because there is not enough manpower, but once all the urgent issues calm down, it will be easier. Since you can’t turn down the bachelor’s scholarship you selected right away, you can get pretty good tuition benefits as long as you just take care of the chores. You can get it.”

It may be possible to pay for one semester’s tuition with the proceeds from the transaction with Lortel, but that will not be a long-term solution.

To hear the story, it appears that the sale of the wise man’s seal went as planned. Then, the question remains as to what to do with the seal that has fallen into the hands of Elte Company.

I need to think about what to do with it right now… I won’t sell it to Crepin in a day or two, so I have some time to spare. There seems to be a need to visit Lortel one more time.

“Anyway, it’s an opportunity for ed students.”

The supply and demand of manpower is not always flexible according to the workload.

Even if a large number of personnel were recruited during the busiest period, there is no way that they can be easily laid off just because the academic operation has become stable.

That’s why Professor Flavin recommends taking advantage of this time and maximizing tuition benefits.

Although it doesn’t seem like it… he was a professor who knew how to take care of his students by considering their situations one by one.

“Is there such a shortage of undergraduate personnel these days?”

“It’s not necessarily an area that students need to worry about… but anyway, a fairly large vacancy has been created.”

I was about to reply to that. If there were to be a fairly large vacancy, it would be Professor Glast.

It may have felt like he was only focused on the study of theology, but he did not neglect his work as a senior professor… From research to education to academic administration, he did most of the work on his own.

“Currently, Assistant Professor Clare, who was my best student, is taking over the work on my behalf… but since a new professor with short experience cannot completely replace the position… at the academic level, I have assigned other senior professors to share the work and have them serve as assistants. “They are being considerate by putting in a lot of money.”

Professor Flavin quickly stretched out his hand toward the corner of the classroom, and the steel cage door on that side swung open.

A grey-brown snake crawled out of it, its tongue lashing out, and climbed up Professor Flavin’s arm. I frowned, but didn’t express any displeasure. Even though I’m a professor of monster ecology, I don’t think I can control a snake like that.

“Assistant Professor Claire must be going through a lot right now. Still, the teaching assistants in charge are quite capable, so I think it will be of some consolation.”

“Then, am I going to become Assistant Professor Claire’s assistant?”

“A bachelor’s scholarship student is strangely different from an assistant professor in charge. They do not belong to a specific professor’s lab… In any case, it is convenient to think of them as closer to outsourced personnel who help with academic affairs.”

“What kind of work do you do specifically?”

“I do almost all work related to academic affairs. Of course, I don’t ask for work that is so intense that it affects the student’s personal studies… In my case, I sometimes ask for assistance with paperwork or field trips.”

Professor Flavin lifted the jaw of the snake, which was flicking its tongue, and checked to see if there were any health problems.

“Assistant Professor Claire took over Professor Glast’s job… Well, once the end-of-semester evaluation work is completed, she will be in charge of the academic agenda during vacation… Also, by the time vacation is over, she will be in charge of class placement tests for new students. “I will do it. Senior professors will help me out.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s right. So, Ed students may be able to help with that kind of work for a while. They will mainly do practical work as long as it doesn’t affect their studies. If you see freshmen, don’t be so disciplined. It’s like that these days. “Because it’s sensitive. There are a lot of people who are a bit precious about it.”

I shook my head and said that wouldn’t happen. I have no intention of having more contact with other students than necessary.

Well, I do have a desire to make all kinds of high-quality connections while attending Sylvania, but I wonder if I have the mental strength to focus on human relationships right now.

Tailley is already on track. It’s just a bit uneasy at first, but at this point, as long as there are no other problems, Tailley’s growth will show an increase almost comparable to that of an exponential function graph.

The problem was that it was difficult to gain momentum, but once momentum was gained, it was ultimately the protagonist’s upward trend that could not be stopped even if one tried. In fact, it was the same during the Glast subjugation war. Despite numerous surprises, everything was eventually accomplished as planned.

The opening of the Sword Saint Ceremony is almost finished, and now he will begin to stand out as a proper Sword Saint.

Then wouldn’t it be okay for me to pay attention to something else…? Even if you feel like you want to do something, anxiety soon comes back. There is nothing wrong with handling everything thoroughly.

“Especially when it comes to new students, there are a lot of sensitive issues. Above all… there is talk that a saint from the Telos Church is enrolling.”

Professor Flavin sighed.

There is bound to be one student in each grade who is of the greatest interest. It is independent of the person’s strength.

While Fenia, the princess of the Cloel Empire, has been in the spotlight for the current first year, next year’s freshmen will have Clarice from the Telos Church.

〈Sylvania’s Failed Sword Saint〉 Occupying the last place among the four heroines… Clarice, the heart of Telos.

“Actually, all the attention is focused on the saint’s admission, but other than that, this new student is full of all kinds of big names. Ed students have also become part of the academic side to some extent… so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to check it out at least once, right?”

After saying that, Professor Flavin quickly took out a document and looked through it. It seems that information about major new students has already been shared among the undergraduate faculty.

In fact, even from a bachelor’s perspective, it will send a shiver down your spine. From last year to this new student… there are too many students in this generation who are born with natural talent or blood. The more this happens, the heavier the professors’ shoulders become.

“But when will an Ed student ever again act like a senior in front of such brilliant talents? The only son of the commander of the Northern Border Corps, the descendant of the Alchemist of Calamity, or the most powerful person on the continent…”

After saying that, Professor Flavin was momentarily speechless. .

Was I being too comfortable talking in front of the students? He made an uncharacteristic mistake when speaking.

I guess they thought it might be a sensitive topic for me as I was excommunicated from my family.

I slowly raised my head and looked at the report that Professor Flavin had received. Sure enough, it was just as expected.

There is no need for a professor to care about what a student thinks… but still, some words can be hurtful to the student.

Considering that he was considerate of my position as a person who had been excommunicated from my family and was moving around the streets, I can say that he has a very kind heart.

“It’s okay, Professor.”

The magically engraved photo is the shape of a girl. Rich blonde hair surrounds the upper body like folded wings.

The sharp facial features along with sharp eyes clearly resemble someone else’s. I feel an elegance comparable to that of a duke’s daughter… but I don’t think I can say it’s a good impression even with empty words.

〈The Failed Swordsman of Sylvania〉 Act 3, Scene 2. The boss of the student council president election. They say she is the daughter of a lesser evil.

There was nothing to be surprised about.

This is because Tanya Rosstaylor’s admission was known from the beginning.

“Hey. “We’re running out of firewood.”

I couldn’t believe my ears for a moment.

Lucy was eating the beef jerky that had been dried on the drying rack, taking a nap lying down somewhere in the camp, or occasionally getting some fresh air on the roof of the cabin when she was awake.

Lucy suddenly started saying something productive. “…What?” “If we keep

going

like this, won’t we run out of firewood?”

While sitting in front of the campfire and trimming my arrows, I asked myself again. What now?

I’ll just lie down blankly as if everything in the world is annoying and just pass the time. Lucy, who was lazy and did nothing but send things off… was worried about the lack of firewood?

“They said there would be a shortage of firewood when winter comes.”

Lucy was sitting on a nearby rock, munching on beef jerky.

No, judging from her slumped posture, it didn’t look like she was sitting. …. It’s almost covered.

The voice whispering sleepily and absent-mindedly is still there, but I can’t believe what it’s saying is Lucy.

“Well, that’s true…”

These days, I haven’t been procuring much firewood. Originally, I was preparing for winter. So I was planning to store a lot of firewood… but since I thought I was going to Dex Hall around winter vacation, I didn’t need to stock up that much.

“Why aren’t you hunting these days?”

“Why is that all of a sudden?”

“…”

“Were you always that interested in my survival activities…?”

Ultimately, camp management was for long-term living in this forest. As I began to lean towards joining Dex Center, I began to think more about camp maintenance than I thought. I had no choice but to neglect laying a foundation for a long-term life.

I hadn’t completely made up my mind yet, but I thought there wouldn’t be anything too bad about going to Dex Building… Anyway, I thought that if I was going to work as a bachelor’s scholarship student, it would be better to be close to the faculty building.

I thought about explaining the situation in detail, but if I tried to explain it to Lucy, who was completely indifferent toward me, I didn’t think

she would listen. Since they are consistently indifferent, I have no answer other than to remain indifferent.

In the first place, Lucy . is the main character in the scenario. It is just a variable that cannot be controlled, comparable to a natural disaster, so it was just left unattended.

If you join the Dex Building, you will have less contact with Lucy, a member of the Ofilis Building, to some extent, so the scenario itself may become more stable in some way. Well, it’s all just speculation.

I felt suspicious of Lucy’s sudden question… but I still wondered if I should give an answer.

So, I was choosing an answer… Meanwhile, the grass on the other side shook, and a girl suddenly jumped out.

“Hi Ed!”

I am familiar with the sight of her smiling brightly while shaking away leaves stuck to her skirt. She puts on a shawl heavily embroidered with cosmos patterns and adjusts her neatly dressed school uniform.

When I saw Yenika, who had come to the camp wearing a persimmon flower hairpin for some reason, I was so happy that I waved her hand.

“I guess class is over for today?”

“Yes, yes. Professor Mari’s class that was scheduled for late in the afternoon was cancelled. So I came here to rest for now!”

With a grin on his face, he walked quickly to the campfire, sat down, and quickly gathered up his oak stick.

“Now when winter break comes, you won’t be able to go to camp. You should come as much as possible, huh!”

After saying that, Yenika looked at the camp view with a very complicated smile.

“It was really fun and nice to spend time here, but thinking that this kind of life is over… I guess it feels a little lonely. I liked this camp.”

“It hasn’t been completely concluded yet, and we don’t even know if there will be a spot in the DEX building.”

“I’m using a Dex tube right now. There are a lot of vacancies, so Ed will definitely be able to come in.”

Yenika pulled up the hem of her shawl, twirled it around, and laughed.

When I also take a look at the camp view, I see a new scenery at a glance.

How long did it take to create a camp like this after being kicked out of Ofilis Hall? How much work had been done, and there was still a lot of repair work left to do.

Perhaps the reason I hesitated to enter the Dex Center… There were environmental reasons, but my effort and time spent on this camp also seemed to play a part.

Anyway, my body has somewhat adapted to camp life. Now that it’s not overly difficult, I can’t help but feel regretful about the effort I put in.

“Ed has a lot of other things to focus on.”

After saying that, Yenika nodded with a mumbling sound.

“Of course.”

My arms are heavy. The iron key in the inner pocket was given to me by Professor Glast.

The bachelor’s investigation is slowly coming to an end, so I guess I’ll have to open the secret safe in the library. If you go into the dormitory, your movements will be restricted, so I think it would be better to go check it out tomorrow evening.

Also, I need to check the status of the library and restore as much of the parts that can be restored as possible to improve my specifications.

After finishing up today’s work, let’s go into the hole Lucy dug sometime tomorrow evening. To do that, it seems necessary to build a ladder, even if it is crude.

“It’s too bad that I won’t be able to come to this camp, but Ed’s environment is still important. If you decide to move to Dex Hall, be sure to call me! I’ll help you if there’s anything I can do!”

“No, there isn’t that much luggage to move anyway. Most of the stuff will be there.”

“That’s right. The facilities are better than the cabin. And since most of my classmates are in the DEX building… if you go back and forth, you and I will definitely see each other much more often than now.

Yes, yes. If we meet at the student cafeteria, let’s eat together. I I tend to eat early, but if I don’t get the timing right with Clara, there are days when we eat separately… First, I’ll show you the locations of all the facilities. I’ll see you in the morning. Also, there are cases where 2 or more people can use the study room, but if there is a shortage of people. “If you’re embarrassed, call me. Ugh. Ugh. Miahan uuuu.

”

Yenika was so excited that she started babbling and chewing her tongue before becoming intimidated.

Then, perhaps realizing that he was talking too much out of excitement, he lowered his head and apologized without any context. It’s like being drunk and saying a lot of useless things and then feeling embarrassed the next morning.

“I’ve had a lot of good things happen today! I’m talking a lot, huh! Ahaha. I’ll kill the tension. Mmm. Sad thoughts, sad thoughts.”

“…”

“I have to take the end-of-semester evaluation soon… There is also a student council president election during vacation… I also have to train more for the high-ranking spirit contract ceremony… That’s right… I’m busy, I’m busy… I’m really busy…”

The corners of his mouth curled. It’s so cute that he’s sweeping his fingers and talking to himself like that. There was nothing to say, so I waited quietly, and Yenika straightened her back with the sound of “Ah, that’s right.”

“Ta-da-”

And then he took out a stiff document from his pocket.

“Application for employment at Dex Hall?”

“Yes, it is the job application season, so if you apply late, there are many cases where you will be missed. So, it is better to fill out the application form in advance and think about it.”

“Oh, you even took care of things like this. Thank you so much, Yenika.”

“I wrote this when I left the Ofilis building. It had a lot of difficult parts to write and the standards were uneven, so it was difficult to do it alone. I already tried it once, so let’s write it together while I’m still there. Ed will keep it. “Submit it later when you’ve gathered your thoughts.”

It may definitely be a pain to write later when the time comes. It was the moment when I expressed my sincere gratitude for Jenika’s consideration and was about to accept the documents she handed me.

– Poof.

At a completely unexpected moment, a girl came between me and Yenika.

All I could see right now was a large witch’s hat, but just by looking at it, I could clearly tell who the girl blocking me was.

“Lu…Lucy?”

Yenika also stuttered, probably because she was very embarrassed.

Lucy suddenly blocked the road with both arms outstretched… without knowing why, her eyes were wide open and she was sweating profusely. It was my first time seeing an expression like this, so I was momentarily taken aback.

From the beginning, Lucy had no interest in Yenika.

For the first few days, Yenika watched Lucy’s attention… but for several days, without any response, Lucy absent-mindedly went about her business, took a nap, and left. She had already been treated like a folding screen for a long time.

In the first place, the fact that Yenica is talking to Lucy is a very precious thing.

“…”

Lucy looked back and forth between me and Yenika, the camp, the drying rack, and the bonfire with her twirling pupils… then turned her gaze back to the document that Yenika was about to hand over.

Even if you stretch out your hand to try to block it, it doesn’t manifest any magical power.

Due to her contract with Glokt during her lifetime, Lucy does not exercise her power carelessly, at least not to the members of the Sylvania Academy.

Unless it is unavoidable due to class content or an unexpected situation occurs, do not kill or injure anyone carelessly. Therefore, it was difficult to think that magic would come out of Lucy’s hands.

However, this did not resolve his hostility toward Yenika.

However, she doesn’t want to use her magic carelessly… Lucy is shaking and breaking into a cold sweat, as if the job application that is quickly approaching her is a talisman to ward off evil spirits.

As he took a step back, he hit the back of his head against my chest… and raised his arms towards Yenika and made a voice.

“….Stop it!”

“…”

After saying that, he glances up at my face.

He looked at Yenika and me once again, as if his feelings were getting more complicated… He glanced at the entire camp, and without even trying to hide his heavily stressed face, as if he was confused about something, he said,

“…Don’t take that!” ”

He ended up saying those words.

Yenica had no choice but to freeze in place for a moment due to this behavior that she could not understand.

*

“Winter vacation special class…? In the first place, there is no Professor Glast, so who is going to teach the class…”

Lortel, who was sitting at the executive table of the Chamber of Commerce and receiving the academic transcript, tilted his head.

Anyway, Class A classes had to continue, so whoever the professor in charge would be would come, but I didn’t expect things to be resolved so quickly.

“Well, I’ll have some free time around vacation time… so I guess it doesn’t really matter.”

Lortel sighed as he brushed his auburn hair, which was tied back. I’m so busy that I can’t even blink. It won’t be until the end of the semester that I’ll have some real free time.

Anyway, by the end of the semester, Yenika will be busy and Ed will also be hectic.

Lucy, well… there’s a high possibility that there won’t be any noticeable changes right away.

“…?”

Suddenly, a strange sensation passes through my back.

Lortel adjusted the fur coat he wore for everyday wear, put it on, stood up for a moment, and opened the window of his office. The cold air comes in and permeates the brain, relieving fatigue.

But the strange feeling does not go away.

“…What is it? Why is it so ominous…??”

Lortel tilted his head and took in the panoramic view of Sylvania in late autumn once again.

It was soon winter.
