11.

Jeremy and Nick, who are ranked 1st and 2nd, are talking about Chris.

The door to the unused club room opened and Vera Morgan came in.

Verado is a strong player ranked 11th in the first year rankings.

Students ranked within the top 25 were called the ranking group.

Vera was also a top-ranking student and was friends with Jeremy and Nick.

“Are you talking about Chris?”

“What, Vera, are you interested in Chris too?”

Nick tapped Jeremy on the arm.

“Chris is Vera’s fiance.”

“Oh, was that so?”

Vera’s expression turned grim.

“I told you not to bring that up in front of me.”

Nick’s family had ties to Vera’s Morgan family.

So I found out that Vera’s fiancé was Chris.

Vera was embarrassed to find out that her fiancé was Chris, so she kept it a secret.

But when Nick revealed that fact, he got angry.

“But isn’t Chris the guy who was struck by lightning while stalking Riel Youngae? What should Vera do? Her husband has already cheated on her, haha.”

Kyaang!

Vera rubbing Jeremy’s shins.

“Don’t tease me!”

-Ugh!

Jeremy rolls on the floor, screaming.

“I can’t accept that pig as my fiancé! I’ll tell my father and break off the engagement, so don’t ever bring that up in front of me again!”

“You don’t like Chris that much?”

Vera turns around as if to ask what Nick is talking about.

“Do you think there’s even one thing I’d like about a pig like that?”

“Chris. I’m kind of interested.”

Nick said, leaning back on the sofa.

“What are you talking about?”

“Actually, I was watching from behind when Howard and Chris were sparring.”

That’s right. Nick was hiding in the crowd and watching Chris fight.

There was no cadet who recognized Nick, who was ranked number 1 in the super famous rankings, because he hid his presence with his stealth skill.

“In my opinion, even if I make a low estimate, Chris’s summons are S-rank.”

“What’s wrong with that? It’s not Chris that’s great, it’s the summoner that’s great. That summoner is probably a summoner left by the ancestors, right?”

When you get engaged to the Delun family,

Count Lawrence told Vera that the Delun family had a powerful summoner left behind by the great summoner Jude Delun, who protected the family like a guardian deity.

“The summoner’s abilities change depending on which summoner he is using. If he has an S-class summoner, then the summoner is also an S-class summoner.”

Nick was telling Vera that her opinion was wrong.

“But… .”

“Also, I heard that he got a new summoner, a unicorn, in this midterm exam… In my opinion, Chris has enough potential to enter the rankings.”

Jeremy, second in line, also got up from the floor and agreed with Nick.

“Nick is right. In fact, Howard, ranked 3rd, lost to Chris.”

Nick and Jeremy, the first and second in the hierarchy, both praised Chris highly, so Vera had nothing to say in response.

but,

Vera, who had grown up seeing only Chris’s pitiful appearance since childhood, was unable to emotionally accept the fact that Chris could be greater than she thought.

#

‘Hehehe, Vera, hello, this is my girlfriend, Mimi-chan.’

Chris, who was interested in dolls that girls would play with when he was young, gradually became interested in real women as he grew up, and eventually became a stalker of Rielle Hayes.

‘Hehehe, Vera. This is Riel Youngae, my girlfriend candidate. Isn’t she pretty?’

It was ridiculous. Riel Hayes was plain-looking and not even prettier than herself. (Vera thought this alone.)

You’ve known yourself since you were a little girl as a super pretty idol, and now you say that Riel Haze is the prettiest?

What’s wrong with your eyes?

‘When I grow up, I’m going to marry Riel Youngae.’

‘You’re engaged to me.’

Chris’s pupils dilate at Vera’s words.

He opens his mouth carefully, watching Vera’s expression.

‘…Can’t we pretend it never happened?’

‘ha…?!’

It was impossible.

Although he had no intention of marrying Chris, he couldn’t help but feel grateful, thankful, and overwhelmed by the fact that she was the fiancée of a super elite idol like him.

Although she had no intention of marrying him, Vera had to be the one to refuse.

But the pig-like, sloppy, sloppy guy with a terrible life, Chris, kicked him???

Vera strangled Chris.

‘You pig! What did you just say!’

‘Kekekeke! Be, Beraya, sa, save me… .’

#

Vera shook her head as she remembered a past she didn’t want to remember.

‘Let’s forget it. Forget about the horrible past with Chris. He’s a stain on my life. I need to get him out of here.’

Even as she thought that, Vera was concerned about Chris.

‘I wonder if that damn Chris has really changed something?’

Pure curiosity.

To Vera, it seemed as though Chris had no chance of changing.

Yet the rumors that persisted suggested that something had changed about Chris.

Even if I was just curious, it was difficult to just sit still.

Vera decided to go see for herself if Chris had really changed.

“Jeremy, you said you were curious about Chris’s skills, right?”

“Well, since you beat Howard, who came in third, shouldn’t you compete with me, who came in second?”

“Then I have a good idea… .”

The day after the midterm exam results were announced.

An award ceremony was held in the main auditorium with all the academy cadets gathered together.

Of course, the winner was Chris Delune.

Academy Headmaster Professor Graham called Chris up to the podium.

“Chris Delun. This student has set an example for others by protecting the unicorn, a protected species, from illegal hunters with a strong sense of justice and noble spirit, and has raised the status of the Ridelph Royal Academy. He is awarded a certificate of commendation.”

Graham presented the award.

Chris bowing after receiving the award.

“You did a great job, Chris Youngsik. You are the pride of our academy.”

Principal Graham shaking hands with Chris and offering some words of encouragement.

“And apart from the award, I have one more gift for you.”

“Is this a gift?”

Principal Graham handed the box over to Hane.

When Chris opened it, there was a small ring inside that looked like a magic ring.

“It’s a ring of magic recovery. It’s a precious rare item. Since you’ve brought honor to the Academy, the faculty council unanimously decided to give you this as a reward. Use it well.”

{

[Ring of Magic Recovery]

-Gradually recovers 10 percent of MP per hour.

}

Professor Graham used status window magic to show the magic enchanted into the ring.

It was simple but had a powerful effect.

The thing that had to be most concerning for wizard-type professions was MP management.

Since they can’t run out of MP no matter what they do, magicians have been training to somehow increase the total amount of MP.

The same goes for Chris, the summoner.

A ring that restores MP was the most coveted treasure for such wizards.

These magic items weren’t things you could buy just with money.

Since it had to be made with rare materials and handcrafted by a top-level wizard, it was expensive to sell, and it was much more profitable for a wizard to use it for himself than to sell it.

“Try wearing the ring.”

Chris puts the ring on his finger as Principal Graham tells him.

A soft blue light leaked out from the ring.

At the same time, I felt Chris’s magic power recovering little by little.

“Thank you so much for giving me such a precious treasure.”

I was sincere.

This was an item that Chris really wanted, as he couldn’t properly bring out the abilities of his summoned creature, Ray, due to his lack of MP.

‘Now I won’t faint right away after Ray uses his ultimate skill.’

Principal Graham spoke again.

“Please give another round of applause to Cadet Chris, who has made the Academy shine.”

-Clap clap clap.

Chris walks down from the podium to applause from the Academy cadets.

Professor Berriol called out to Chris as he came down from the podium.

“Chris, the breastplate made from the rainbow ore you brought is finished. Stop by the Academy workshop and get the breastplate.”

The reason I asked the students to bring me rainbow ore was to make armor with the rainbow ore’s anti-magic powers.

“Your breastplate is said to be of a high quality, with more rainbow ore than the other cadets’ armor. The workshop leader contacted me and said he wanted to give it to you personally.”

The workshop was not far away.

Chris decided to take his breastplate and return to his dorm.

I headed to the workshop located in the empty lot at the north corner of the academy.

When Chris revealed that he had come to get the breastplate, the foreman greeted him with joy.

“Thank you for saving the unicorn. Thanks to you, I was able to use rainbow ore without holding back and make a good chest armor.”

Rainbow ore was a rare raw material that was difficult to obtain.

The workshop leader had always wanted to use rainbow ore sparingly to create a breastplate with the best magical power, but had never had the chance.

But it couldn’t be better since Chris dug up a whopping 100kg of rainbow ore.

“Rainbow breastplate. Even if you brush against it with low-level magic, it won’t leave a scar.”

And it wasn’t just the breastplate.

“Because there was so much ore, I made a set of not only a breastplate, but also shin and wrist guards.”

The workshop leader showed each piece of armor to Chris.

“Since it is a summoner profession, I decided that it would be better to make shin and wrist guards rather than a shield.”

The workshop manager brought in a wizard to test the fireball spell.

-Phew!

The fireballs struck the breastplate, shins, and wrist guards, but did not damage the helmet.

Since 100kg of rainbow ore was melted down to create a breastplate and armor, its magical power had to be high.

Chris liked the armor even more after seeing its effects.

“Thank you for making it so well.”

Chris accepted the breastplate and guard.

I was pleased with the rainbow-colored flashing mutes.
