Chapter Index

    In the end, I asked Yul, who accepted my offer, to give me the lab address.

    “Could you please tell me the address of the lab?”

    “yes! “It would be easier to write it down, right?”

    “Then that’s good.”

    I already knew the lab address, but I asked this question because I needed to get it officially.

    There are many restrictions if I act as a sponsor, so I will help her as the general store owner.

    “But since I’m already here today, I’ll pick it out myself!”

    Yul, who had written the lab’s address on a piece of paper, seemed happy that I had paid attention to him, so he clasped his hands and said he would buy more than before.

    “Buy only as much as you can carry.”

    “Yes!”

    Yultugi answered cheerfully and started selecting items from the general store again.

    As I see the items disappearing from the shelves, I am worried that the donation amount may not be enough.

    ‘It’s because you spend so much money.’

    Isn’t it true that only the items purchased here are used in experiments?

    I will purchase research materials separately through the top, but if I spend that much here, I don’t know if I can cover the cost of the materials up to the top.

    ‘Next time, I’ll have to pack it a little thicker.’

    I reflect on whether I took Yultugi’s greed for ingredients too lightly.

    What I wanted was for Yul to focus on his research without worrying about money.

    Instead of calculating how to save money like we do now.

    I wanted to focus on my research instead of worrying about other things.

    Perhaps my intervention would have shortened the research period a lot now, but I hoped to develop it faster.

    ‘That way, we can bring Yul into our unit when he enlists.’

    Why are you taking Yul with you to the combat unit?

    ‘Even though he looks like a researcher now… .’

    Performance was good in terms of combat.

    Wouldn’t it be okay to continue research as a non-combatant and develop something better?

    In the first place, all SSR characters were graded based on combat performance.

    ‘If you’re a non-combatant, your stats shouldn’t be that high.’

    For reference, Yul’s stats are currently higher than my stats.

    Can’t you guess Yul’s value as a combatant just by looking at that?

    In addition, the alchemy she has developed in small amounts will be of great help to children who are combatants.

    That’s why we have to bring Yul into our unit.

    If you go to the non-combat field and are being exploited by your superiors, wouldn’t it be better to fight in our unit, receive support, and do research?

    ‘The problem is that even though I can add the 1st generation students as I want, I can’t from the 2nd generation onwards.’

    Now I can recommend unit members as I please.

    Isn’t this a situation where Thalia is giving an unconditional OK?

    The problem arises in the second period.

    As Thalia’s unit builds its reputation, the influence I can have will inevitably diminish.

    ‘Because there are more eyes around me. How is he able to tell the unit to do this or that?’

    As a result, I became in a relationship with Thalia and things started to get annoying.

    If you think you are giving preferential treatment to your lover, it is not easy to prove that you are clean.

    ‘That’s why I prepare in advance.’

    In order for Yul, who was to become a member of the second generation, to enter the unit, he needed to make worthy achievements.

    Then it becomes a ‘scout’ rather than a ‘request’.

    I think that if it’s something that Yul invented, it would be an achievement that wouldn’t be strange to scout as a troop.

    “Okay… .”

    Perhaps because I was itching to receive research support, the amount of items I had today was enormous.

    In the end, as I warned, it became too much to carry at once.

    “Can you take it with you?”

    “I could!”

    Patter!

    She lifted it up, but the object fell outward.

    No matter how well he holds it, doesn’t Yul only have two arms?

    “Let me help you.”

    “no! “You don’t have to!”

    Yul shook his head violently.

    As a result, the items that had been barely holding on from before fell down once again.

    Patter!

    “Ugh!”

    “Are you going to go to a place like this alone?”

    “Uh… sorry. I’ll just ask you to go to the front of the lab. It’s close from here! Hmm, I’m sorry.”

    “are you okay. This is also customer care.”

    I deliberately located a lab not far from the academy, so even if I were to deliver it, it wouldn’t take much time.

    “Give me this too, and I’ll take this too.”

    “That must be heavy. thank you.”

    “Once again, it’s customer care. “Don’t feel pressured.”

    Only after I shared her burden was Yul able to walk while looking forward normally.

    I briefly locked the door to the general store and moved to Yul’s personal laboratory.

    Yul’s cheeks were flushed with anticipation, as if he was already excited about the experiment.

    but.

    Beetle-

    “What?!”

    “are you okay?”

    Even though her cheeks were so red, her complexion itself did not look very healthy.

    So much so that the wind barely blows.

    “yes. “I can’t give up!”

    This is probably the result of lack of sleep along with not eating properly.

    It was a bit of a shock to see the awakened person stumbling because he couldn’t withstand the wind.

    “Are you eating well?”

    As I asked the question, I had an idea of what the answer would be.

    After bragging about his research success to his friends, he ends up being chased by a big boss.

    Unfortunately, as the karma from the past pours in due to the fact that he was unable to examine his body because he was concentrating on research, he is put in a situation where he has no choice but to suffer, even though he is an SSR character.

    If you think about Yul’s scenario, there is no way he would have been able to manage his health well even now.

    “yes? “Rice?”

    “Yeah, I think my wrist is almost broken.”

    “ah… Eat well. “It’s just because I have a constitution that doesn’t allow me to gain weight.”

    I answered by covering my wrist with my clothes, probably because I was embarrassed.

    That doesn’t mean you can cover up your skinny body.

    “When was the last meal you had?”

    “meal… that… hmm… .”

    It seems like he’s trying his best to come up with an answer, but he keeps hesitating as if he can’t think of anything.

    “ah! “I ate cereal with milk the day before yesterday!”

    Cereal two days ago?

    It’s amazing that you’re using so much energy after eating that.

    No, I think we should consider it a miracle that he is alive.

    “Aren’t you hungry?”

    “I have to do research now… .”

    “That won’t work. Let’s put our things down and eat something before going in.”

    “Eh? Oh no no no no! are you okay. “It’s really okay.”

    If the other person rejects you so strongly, you may feel slightly hurt.

    However, anyone who knows the law should never become weak here.

    “I heard you ate cereal with milk two days ago and didn’t eat anything. “Will research be successful if you study with such health conditions?”

    “I tend to be able to study well only when my stomach is empty so I can’t sleep… !”

    “If you don’t eat like that, you will die early before you can succeed in your research.”

    I will refuse no.

    “yes?!”

    “I’m going right away. “I know because I’ve been around here, and there are probably quite a few restaurants.”

    Because the location was deliberately chosen, it was easy to plan to take her to a restaurant.

    In the end, Yul arrived at the lab and as soon as he could put his things down, he was dragged by me and had to go into a restaurant.

    “Ugh… “I don’t want to feel sleepy when I eat it.”

    “What should we eat? “First of all, since it’s been a while since I’ve had it, let’s start with soup.”

    It’s been a while since I’ve had food in my stomach so I ordered soup so my stomach wouldn’t startle.

    but.

    “Are you sure you ate all of that?”

    “… I’m full.”

    “under.”

    As I watched her say she was full after scooping up a few spoonfuls, I realized there was no answer.

    It is a big problem that the awakened person is only satisfied with the amount.

    Isn’t the fuel efficiency of awakened people different from that of ordinary people?

    “I think this is a bit serious. “I think I need to get a health checkup.”

    “Health checkup?!”

    I know how funny it is for an awakened person to worry about getting sick, but seriously, Yul thought it was possible.

    “It’s a good thing I haven’t collapsed yet. Basically, he was born strong, and he was able to do so because he was an awakened person. “If I were a commoner, I would have been in big trouble a long time ago.”

    “I have never had any inconvenience in life. “I never felt like my body was strange.”

    What kind of confidence do you have in a subject that goes so far as to confirm the research by drinking it yourself?

    It’s just a pity that I can’t pretend to know because I’ve never told anyone about such behavior(?).

    “This is all possible thanks to youth and the power of the Awakened. As you grow older and your health begins to decline, it will become uncontrollable. “How are you going to enlist if you’re so incompetent?”

    “… … .”

    Yul’s lips become more pointed and stick out as I nag him.

    It was quite cute, but it didn’t stop nagging.

    He probably tried to use his poorly maintained body as an excuse to fall into the non-combatant side, but he couldn’t stand by and watch such a waste of talent.

    “Isn’t this all about making a living? You shouldn’t neglect eating. “I wasn’t going to say this, but would your mother be happy to see me focusing on my studies without taking care of my body?”

    “!!!”

    I knew very well how important his adoptive mother was to Yul, so I didn’t want to mention it easily.

    But if you don’t do this, it won’t be easy to convince her who will never take care of herself.

    “If I were Yul’s mother, I would be very upset. “My wrist is so big that even my thumb and index finger can hold it.”

    “… “I’ll take care of it and eat it.”

    As I was clicking my tongue, Yul had no choice but to make a promise that I couldn’t keep and started eating the soup again.

    As if to let people know that I am eating really well, I scoop up a spoonful of soup and bring it to my mouth.

    “is it so. “It’s nice to see you eating well.”

    “I usually eat really well.”

    Even if you try to eat like that with a sore body, it doesn’t feel sincere.

    I ate my share of the meat after she finished her soup.

    “Eck!”

    There was an air of outright disapproval, but there was no doubt about it.

    “eat. You can’t just say you’re full that much. “I won’t give you any more, so let’s just eat this.”

    Don’t you think that having meat in your stomach gives you energy?

    Because he’s so incompetent, even though he’s an SSR character level awakener, he hasn’t been able to win even one of the upper ranks.

    ‘You’re still young, so you don’t know how important your health is.’

    Since he has the unique equipment ‘Witch Cauldron+ (Level 12)’, he will be so immersed in his research that he will be scared, but will he be able to remember his promise to eat well?

    I feel like if I leave it alone, something big will happen.

    Although her friend sold her research to a large merchant for money, it was thanks to her friend’s help that Yul was able to eat and eat until now.

    However, now that I have received a private lab and moved inside the academy, I will no longer be able to receive support from that friend.

    ‘Should I raise one by neglecting it, and raise the other by obsessing over it?’

    There were so many different ways to raise children that it was mind-boggling.
