Acquired the EX-class attribute ‘Transcendence Copy’

100 – Oops

The messy hair lost its luster. Ralph Leoris, a man who was reviewing his thesis with a haggard face, the “Sage of redemption,” Rose from his chair with a light sigh.

His body was proud. It was natural. He’d been sitting in a chair for over 10 hours, so his body was bound to stiffen.

The only thing I ate all day was two cups of coffee. It was clear that food would disrupt his concentration.

There is only one day left until the thesis re-examination.

However, no answer to the question posed by Alexander Bond was prepared. The more I reviewed the thesis, the more I thought, ‘Is my theory wrong?’

The Dodol-Ipyo was returned instead of the answer to the question. Dozens of times to repeat such a meaningless review.

“Is the era of Ralph Leoris over?”

I didn’t think that my world would last for thousands of years. When he first saw Sarah’s dazzling talent, Ralph was convinced. This kid will surpass himself in 10 years.

Maybe, he says, when he’s alive, he might surpass everything he’s ever built.

A daughter’s growth is a parent’s joy. If Sarah had surpassed herself like that, Ralph would have been more than happy to open her arms.

However, it was Alexander Bond, not Sarah, who ended his own era. He is a wizard of the same age as himself.

It is said that the best hair for a wizard is from the mid-20s to the mid-30s. The knowledge accumulated over the years and the brain that runs tight with youthful energy are combined, and it is to shoot a career high at that time. In the world of magic, it is rare for latecomers to achieve remarkable results.

By the way, what Alexander Bond ate shocked his industry during the twilight years of his life. Ralph was bitter to have to admit that fact.

His gaze turned to the magic parchment in the corner of the table. A parchment left behind by a man called Boy John’s acquaintance.

– Sir Leoris’ paper, I read it with interest. This is my thoughts on him.

-Older brother. This guy is a total thing. Beat me in a duel

When Ralph heard that Viette had lost the duel, Ralph was very surprised. Almost like when he was pointed out to Alexander Bond for his thesis.

With that said, Viet Leoris was an exceptional dueling specialist in the Leoris family. Her characteristics were terribly specific to combat, and Viet was a person with the ability to use those characteristics freely.

Although she is a 7th circle mage, few of her 8th circle or higher arc mages can guarantee her victory in a duel with her.

To think such a viet was defeated by a nameless mage.

How can I not be surprised?

Furthermore, the fact that he was an acquaintance of Boy John also stimulated interest.

John Baker.

He was one of the most unusual people Ralph had ever seen. Having risen to the top of the academy from a commoner, bewitching others with his dazzling appearance like the sun, and winning himself at loto chess.

If you were asked to write a thesis with interesting facts about the boy John, you could write three papers. So, it was only natural that he was interested in the man who was an acquaintance of the boy John.

Perhaps, in that parchment.

In those scrolls, the knowledge he so longed for might lie dormant.

However, the hand did not go out willingly. You could call it self-esteem. You could even call it a false honor.

Ralph wanted to prove himself. That his own theory was not wrong.

That his own theory is correct.

He wanted to prove it without borrowing anyone’s hand.

However, unlike that wind, the path to the correct answer was blurry, as if it were full of fog. No matter how much you burn your concentration, accidents do not continue. How many hours to abuse your ass like that?

“It’s already night.”

It is said that the devil’s temptation comes late at night.

It was the time the moon hung on the ceiling that loosened the stubbornness I had guarded with pride. The temptation that if he stretched out his hand, he could get the right answer eventually knocked Ralph down.

‘Very little. If only a little….’

The head knows. The moment you receive even the smallest amount of help from someone, the lofty pride you have kept becomes meaningless masturbation.

However, the pressure of time and the accumulated fatigue from the forced march broke Ralph’s heart. Ralph brought his rolled up parchment to his side. As the texture of the fine paper caught on my fingertips, I involuntarily swallowed.

Gulp!

The sound of swallowing loudly knocks on the quiet room. Ralph opened his eyes and slowly opened the parchment.

The words caught Ralph’s eyes.

[Pineapple Pizza Recipe]

I handed Ralph a revised copy of the thesis.

It’s Ralph’s choice whether to see it or not. Due to Ralph’s personality, he’s likely to be arrogant to the end. Because when it comes to knowledge, he’s a proud man.

It’s a fact that comes out here and there as you progress through the story. Well, just looking at his daughter Sarah, it is possible to roughly infer Ralph’s personality.

“It would be comfortable if you bend it moderately.”

I thought of a plan B because the world doesn’t work so comfortably. The thesis re-examination place was the Jinli Library Academic Hall in District 1, right?

I’m even thinking about breaking in if I have to. As long as the circumstances revealed that Alexander Bond had a deal with Angra Mainyu, there is a need to remove him.

“I’m busy with this and that.”

While doing outside work, he also cares about circle work.

Recently, we are accelerating the development of hidden recipes. If you make a dish with good options, it helps a lot to increase your liking. This work is also important to me who wants to copy the characteristics as soon as possible.

I’m looking forward to the pineapple pizza I’m making this time.

“Huh? Where did the recipe go?”

Obviously, I put the recipe I organized yesterday on the desk, but I can’t see it. Instead, for some reason the revised paper that should have gone to Ralph is on my desk.

……

Surely, the recipe was written on the same magic parchment as the thesis revision, right?

Something seems to be f*cked up.

The Truth Library in District 1 of the Royal Capital.

The kingdom’s famous academic conferences are usually held here. The fact that the truth library was rented also means that it was recognized in the industry.

However, thesis review is rarely held here. This is because it is common for the thesis review to be conducted at the Mage Tower or the Academy.

The reason why Ralph Leoris’ thesis reexamination was held at the Truth Library was that the thesis review had a kind of dueling nature. Two mages who fought for their honor as scholars and their membership in the Mage Tower Council.

Both of those mages were Archmage-level titans recognized in the industry. Among the reporters of the royal capital, there is no better event than this.

As if to prove that fact, people were crowded in front of the Truth Library an hour before the dissertation review.

There is not a single ignorant commoner suitable for Dottegi Market as it is the 1st district of the royal road. Everyone who gathered like a swarm of ants was said to be doing their best in the magic world, or the upper class with power or money.

Even for those with honor and power, the Leoris Family and the Bond Family’s Ilto was a big match that could not be missed.

“Hey. In the end, who do you think will win?”

“Okay. If you listen to what people say, after all, Lord Bond…. Sir Leoris didn’t say a word of rebuttal at the council meeting?”

“There is no way that such a great thesis can be edited in less than a month. As expected, this is in the favor of Lord Bond.”

“By the way, Sir Bond has such a bad taste. Wasn’t it the bond family’s breath that rented the library? Do you intend to thoroughly trample on the Leoris family?”

“All I can say is that Lord Leoris, who accepted that, is amazing. What kind of confidence do you have?”

“What would a criminal like us know? Ah, admission has begun.”

The heat was so hot that a scalping premium was attached to the thesis re-examination ticket. Only 100 spectators can enter the screening room.

Sara and Viette entered the academic hall with worried faces. The two attended the screening as observers of the Leoris family.

“Ugh. Stupid bro. Can you do well?”

Viet said, biting her fingernails. It was the first time Viet, who always emphasized modesty, showed such a frivolous side.

The academic hall quickly filled up. The audience entered first, followed by the judges. The judges were only famous wizards whose sides were sold.

“Ah, over there, you are the head of our academy’s magic department.”

A soft-looking woman wearing a black blindfold sat in the judges’ seat. With her ash blonde hair very well matched, she placed a purple crystal ball on her judging table.

“Today’s luck is also invisible like fog. The stars in the sky are losing their light these days, is the end of the world coming? Have fun~”

It was Biblio Organ, head of the academy’s magic department, who is said to be the best astrologer on the continent. All academic schedules at the academy are determined by her astrology results.

“This is the first time I have ever seen a thesis review by so many people. This is not an auction house.”

The person who grumbled and sat down was Duchon Faerun, the Archmage of the Crystal Mage Tower. In the past, she is a genius who never missed the top spot from admission to graduation when she attended the academy.

“It is good to have a lot of interest in knowledge. Isn’t there a saying that if there are many heads, the ship will be sent to the mountains?”

Then came Jody Woods, the chairman of the Continental Mage Tower Council.

“hahahaha. You see the world in a very rosy light. People gathered here just want to watch the fight in the Colosseum. I bet on my name. More than 70 percent of the audience will have never even read the outline of the thesis.”

Beside Jody Woods was Blicky Syndio, an Archmage and the continent’s best theoretical wizard.

“Okay…. We’ve collected a bunch of kkondaes who are famous for their strictness.”

Viet looked at every picture of Sim and frowned at her. He even wondered how he brought in such an all-star.

“Is Professor Organ too picky?”

“That man, he was my thesis advisor, but I had a hard time graduating.”

Sarah nodded at Viet’s tongue-in-cheek words. On the outside, he is a very gentle and docile person. Still, she was in her freshman year, so she hadn’t hooked up with the organ professor, but after hearing her aunt’s words, she seemed new. It feels like a dark curtain hiding an ulterior motive.

After all the judges were seated, the two protagonists of the day appeared at the conference hall. The venue, which should have been quiet, became noisy.

“Ralph Leoris. Are you ready?”

From noble mtl dot com

Alexander Bond, with a shaggy beard reminiscent of a bandit, said that while making eye contact with Ralph. Ralph responded with a smile.

“I want to ask if Sir Bond is ready? Today would be the last day Lord Bond will be a member of the Council.”

He was Ralph, who never lost his momentum in the battle.
