"Ugh... Ugh"

Wake up. I had been thrown out on cold ice. And gradually the memory returns. Yes, I was flown... by a transfer in that place on the twentieth floor. I never reached for Elle.

Elle first shook Aria's hand and from there reached out to me.

Why did I come later? I know that. Aria will die if she is alone. So Elle's judgment is reasonable. Nothing is wrong.

"... that?

If I had noticed, there were tears.

"That, that... how could you... not be sad"

Yes, I am not sad. Elle didn't abandon me. This is what happened under reasonable judgement. But I couldn't stop crying even if I was so convinced.

At the same time I was remembering. When I... met Elle. Older Elle was a freer and brighter boy. No, I haven't changed that much yet, but the look on my face when I reached out. I've never seen El's face like that before. Somewhere unsatisfactory, repentant look.

I've never seen El like that before. And when I think of it, my heart hurts, too. When I met Elle like that, yes... more, I had another emotion.

And I remember the past.

"Nice to meet you. This is Elweed Willis."

"It's the second time we've met, isn't it?

"You did. Thank you very much."

The first time there was, yes, at the entrance exam. Then he passed the entrance exam on an unprecedented full score, and he was rarely admitted to the college. And I was to be in charge at my Semi. Now that I think about it, I didn't think such a big role would work out for me, but surprisingly... but still, I'm pretty sure Elle was too flighty to make sense of it.

"So, what are you willing to study?

"I thought I'd major in fully independent artificial intelligence."

"Hmm? What did I say?

"It's completely independent artificial intelligence."

"For what?

It's for agriculture.

"Ok. I know you're from a farmer. But you use alchemy for farmers? You're that talented?

"? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm here to take over the farmhouse."

"Uh, well, then don't you have to use alchemy?

"Alchemy is also useful for varietal improvement. I have already succeeded in improving crop varieties through alchemy"

"Huh!? Isn't that amazing?

"Well, but it's still in the prototype stage..."

"So, how is it artificial intelligence? There are a lot of researchers who have already given up on that one."

"To secure the workforce...... right? Because I think it would be useful to introduce AI, not human beings, to do simple labor on it. Anyway, agriculture is a lot of work like that."

"I see... that's why you came to this college?

"Yes, you're right."

I don't know what that means.

This canovarian alchemy school is difficult to enroll and graduate from. And what I am attending, without exception, encourages me to study with a noble purpose. So you use alchemy for agriculture? Yeah, you don't know what that means... just two questions springing up.

Alchemy has a large genetic element. Efforts are of course necessary, but a wall of talent is certain to exist. That's why there are many aristocrats highly suited to alchemy who come into this college, and there are ordinary family people, but farmers just don't exist as one.

And yet, perhaps since the beginning of this college, the brilliant man comes from a farmer and learns alchemy for agriculture? The purpose of our alchemist is to explore the truth. To that end, the College exists and has so far made its name known to the world. And yet you use alchemy for that crap? Will that be forgiven?

The emotions I had at this time were closer to anger than disappointment. Why is such a farmer boy so talented? Can talent be talented only if it is properly used?

I was uncomfortably thinking about that in a narrow perspective at this time.

"El! El!

"Ah... Phee"

"Already. Stay again?

Sorry, I've been busy researching.

Elle has been enrolled for a month. Elle's presence has also begun to be recognised around lately, and when he has a genius, he's making noise, but he doesn't even get abused because he's from a farmer, but he's been hit pretty hard. Nobility cares about that, so I had no choice but to stop it otherwise. That's not from the irrational anger I used to feel.

This man, he is.

Because I've learned that in the past month. I started calling each other by their first names a week after school, and they talked quite a bit about it, but they're all about crops in their brains anyway. I've been pulling into my lab (technically my neighbor's unused lab) lately to achieve artificial intelligence.

I will do that permanently if I leave you alone, so I regularly plug you in, build you a hypnotic room, etc. And most importantly, its boldness is surprising.

I've seen the scene of abuse. That was what the aristocratic students were trying to water El. I could have stopped it, but it happened surprisingly if I decided to see how things were going for a bit.

"Hmmm... I still don't like the fact that it's not enough... but... the configuration here... is still not enough output for the first material, Prima Materia? The module itself is well made…"

Elle walking down the hallway in the college saying bumps. On my right hand I have paper, and I walk in reflection. Looks like they targeted it there.

And at the next moment, there's a ton of water on Elle. The nobles seemed quite skilled in alchemy, and massive amounts of water were about to pour down from the smelting formations that appeared overhead... but it was lightly resisted and the smelting formations were shattered and scattered.

"... hmm. Take a different approach next time."

As it is, Elle walks with a bump. The opponents who watched it open their mouths with a poker. Resist almost unconsciously without even checking the coordinates of the subject. That's all I know. Elle said he was a genuine genius.

And concerned about it, Elle's reputation was to grow even further.

"Elle, are you still doing this? What..."

"... sooo... sooo..."

Rarely, he was asleep. I usually chew on it and study it, but I seem to have fallen asleep tired. Seeing such an el, there was no more irrational anger like before. I respected it purely. Humans who can work so hard for something are amazing, he said. As a student, I was also called a genius and behaved like a float. But I've never worked harder. I was just using my talent somehow. The status we have now is also what we have gained in the current.

But Elle isn't. Learn and take advantage of alchemy for agriculture. I live hard every day for it. Look at people like that, who can fool around.

"Hmm? Ah Phee. Sorry, I think I was asleep."

"Are you all right for a second? Isn't that a little too much these days? I need to get home and get some rest."

"A little more... I think I'll be able to do something in a little while"

"Hmm. Really?

"Ah. So let me be free for a while longer"

"I hope so..."

I believe that kind of Elle's words, but I didn't understand. That this study of his will be the greatest feat in the history of alchemy. And he said this was the first step in becoming a star Blue Stella.
