20. Leo, Reveal Conspiracy (Previous)

With Alberto's smooth escort, Leo was able to proceed without being particularly lost, even in the stadium where he would step in for the first time.

It is the College's proud "mirror auditorium" with its high blow-out ceilings, mirrors stretched on one side of the wall and a huge stage ahead.

Though named after the auditorium, Leo gave a tranced look, forgetting the situation, almost to the palace hall and the lightly golden equipment.

For today, colorful ribbons are strewn out on the ceiling, but even one of those ornaments smells like gold.

The first half of the ceremony is a magic presentation using the stage, and the second half is a ball by moving to a free space, so for a moment I lower my back to a seat closer to the stage.

Naturally, Alberto is also sitting next to it, so Leo managed to forget the existence of the gold coin and watched the announcement with the intention of staring even at his parents' revenge until his turn came.

"You're taking this very seriously, Leonora."

Alberto raises his eyebrows funny on the side.

Even so, early in the announcement order, plain performances continue, including research reports by students lacking magic and readings of magic reports.

As a result, most students often rowed boats.

What I'm hearing with a serious face is in the body of the presenter, or about Harald, the authority of magic - that's right, he's listening to the announcement without a single move from earlier in the gallery upstairs - and the way the Marquis, who has a lot of magic, listens seriously, even gave the viewer a certain impression.

"... for a very good reason."

Leo, who answered with few words, was out-of-the-box serious.

It was the announcement of the formation that I was watching with the intention of yakexo at first, but that is, if I could use multiple combinations of formations, I could exercise witchcraft without magic, and that seemed more meaningful to Leo the common man than the way he handled magic itself. I mean, I feel like I could sell quite a bit if I processed it so I could carry a large number of copies of the formation.

"A lot of people, they don't have magic. But if you can use the formation, you can use magic."

- That's right.

Alberto narrowed his eyes softly to the way the girl listened to the presentation, thinking not "for herself" but "for many people without magic".

"Speaking of which, it seems that instructor Harald has also been working on research for the formation lately. Just say that it is the role of the Church that benefits the people widely. If I seem interested in you, should I ask my mentor to give me a lecture on formation?

"No, I don't want to"

Leo immediately said no.

I am interested, but I am leaving this college today, so I do not intend to go to future classes, etc.

"Oh, that's surprising. Though I thought you liked mentors enough to take you to church day after day."

"Huh?"

When I looked back, I saw Alberto with an unexpectedly serious face, and Leo was so surprised that he seemed to jump up.

"Did you think they wouldn't notice? But I do. Especially every time you've been out of school for the past week or so, you've been sneaking off to church."

"Uh, uh, uh"

Leo is full.

Good thing the church doesn't have a lot of people, but I didn't think the prince would have seen Oscar meeting in secret and meeting the college escape plan.

(Terrible observation eyes everywhere......! There's no blind spot for this guy!

Alberto smiled all the time at Leo in cold sweat.

"Whoa... I'm not blaming you for anything. Asking a teacher willingly is a good thing. - I don't think so, I didn't mean to be too narrow, but... crazy."

The last one was close to monologue and Leo couldn't hear it.

"Oh, uh, nothing, I, I didn't do anything nasty,"

"Hmm? He said he wasn't going to see his mentor. So you went to church itself? - Well, when they say they like church with your spirit-like appearance, it's convincing."

"No, I don't like churches."

Leo denied it aggressively.

I tried not to think about it, but the truth is that when I hear about the church, I want to hold my groin down with spinal reflexes.

"There, it's a horrible place. People's precious things, trying to take them away"

"Leonora...?

I showed the slightly pale girl how surprised Alberto was.

"What the hell......"

"Ah, it's almost time! I'm coming!

Leo stood up with a vigorous raise of hands to break the increasingly suspicious conversation of the clouds.

(Danger!

Wipe the seeping cold sweat as you travel on a small run. Damn, I got a sharp eye for that prince's waste.

Mostly, this one since we met, what the hell do you mean by talking about two years ago, blackmailing, showing off your gold coins?

No, perhaps the prince is swimming because of his lack of decision making, although he thinly realizes who Leo is.

I must be willing to help Leo on the spot if I show him the bare gesture to reach for it.

(What a jerk! What an asshole! If you're royal, why don't you give me one, two, five, ten gold coins, and a Pooh! What dragon symbol! It doesn't matter if you have magic cages or not, because you can't sense us as common people!

With indignation, we reach the stage sleeve. According to the guidance clerk, Leo's announcement order was next.

And, after having had his turn approaching, Leo puts his troubled face on.

Until Alberto got his name on the escort, he wasn't practicing any sorcery because he was going to use it just before the presentation, even to escape.

By the way, after I decided to be present with the prince, my head turned white and I wasn't nearly practicing.

(Damn - what am I supposed to do? Though I've learned a lot about seating, I can't practice anything!

It was Leo who had recently grown his temper and abilities, but somehow he lived a longer life without magic, so I don't really know what it's like to activate magic.

In the end, all Leo could do was play the crystal of surveillance previously activated by Lena.

Nevertheless, as the announcement order also comes later in the day, it is vivid that the students manipulate the spheres of fire or sprinkle water to make rainbows appear.

Exactly in it, there was a little wickedness to "nothing to announce".

At last, Leo's turn is coming.

He somehow switched with a student before exiting with a nervous face, and Leo finally came to the middle of the stage in a heartfelt hurry to say, "Yay, yay, yay, yay.

The entire auditorium is well visible from a stage built with a scraped marble.

There is also Alberto in the audience close to the stage, Bianca and Natalia near the centre, Kai by the pillars, and lecturers and the Marquis of Harkenberg on the second floor.

All of them - no, everyone in the auditorium was staring at Leo with their eyes as if they were going to shoot through.

(Ugh... what a pressure)

In fact, the Spirit is only nailed to Leo's appearance every now and then, beautifully dressed for a later ball, but he never realized its sincerity.

And, ahead of wandering his gaze, in the audience upstairs, he sees Harald smiling with a steady smile.

Seeing that benevolent face, Leo made a bitter decision.

(Excuse me, Dr. Harald. This is all I have. I wasn't stalking you, and I don't want to expose my teacher's privacy in front of everyone)

If you're a gentle Harald, maybe you'll forgive me, no, I'm sure, absolutely.

Leo decided to add much to the serenity of the instructor and announce the witchcraft of surveillance carried out by Lena.

(I've just been sitting in my seat for the last hour or so, enough to play that...... probably!

Turning a blind eye to Leo - which, by analogy, was only a consideration enough to avoid new bills when working the robbery - I decided to regenerate what Harald looked like five minutes ago.

"The emergence of crystals."

Raise your right hand and briefly chant, and the surrounding wind will quickly draw a vortex, eventually making sure it is stiff in your hand and the crystal will appear.

(I hope you don't see the moment when you look weird or something!

If I were you, someone watched me before I knew it, and I was absolutely sorry that it was recorded.

I don't even want them to know where the whiskers are, and if they peek at my hobby copper coin count, I'll probably die of shame. Because the meeting with copper coins is a very private time and space for Leo.

But Leo, who continued to be under stress and worn out his spirit due to Alberto's presence, had begun to assume that somehow the escape plan would be frustrated not to perform magic in this setting.

"Instructor Harald, play what you were five minutes ago"

Just a little reflection of the popular lecturer five minutes ago.

That's all.

The crystal starts to shine as she closes her eyes all the time, shits and squeals.

That was normal, though.

"Hmm?"

For some reason, the crystal, which usually just shows itself loosely, swirled.

"Huh? Huh?

As Leo panicked, the crystal continued to spin and began to cast light on the people.

The perimeter increases in brightness as illuminated by a giant lamp, and the membrane of light appears the next moment.

(Membrane, curtain?

That, however, covers the curtains over the stage. It was a huge screen of light.

An exclamation leaks from the guest's seat in a great deal of sorcery.

Leo, no longer able to pull in, decided to leak a cramped laugh to get past the occasion.

(What is it, it feels like magic is expanding on its own. What kind of nobleman is that?

It feels like one magic power unfolds to ten or a hundred.

If it were Alberto or Natalia, you would have noticed the subtle stretched decorative ribbons trembling fine on stage. Maybe I opened my eyes in amazement.

But he said, "I want parents to look good. Like this, is it a consideration on the part of the college?" Leo, who cleaned up briefly, continued to develop his sorcery without thinking too deeply.

Eventually, on the curtain of light, Harald's figure begins to tie the statue.

"Hmm?

It's just that he was buried on the couch carefree, dressed in his usual robe, not smiling or dressed for some reason.

To see the background in it, the place is apparently not the auditorium either - is this his private room, set in the back of the church?

(Huh? What's this, what's this about?

At a time as if to answer Leo's question, the voice of the person who seemed to be across the street from the couch sounded.

'- Are you sure, Master Harald? A proud magic lecturer at the college soothes a serious event called a presentation'

"I don't hear boring things, Ahim."

Apparently, it was Ahim who asked.

In terms of tone, is it a follower with a harald or a believer or something like that? Looks more like an old man than a harald.

They both use Ellandic because of the conversation within the church.

But more than that, Leo scratched a much colder sweat at the words Harald leaked as he stretched out.

"Such crap, playtime between students. It's enough to sit on a doll that reflects my shadow '

(Whoa, whoa, whoa! I just hit the skip scene. Ah!
