Reincarnated as a Legendary Talent Genius of a Noble Family Episode 280

180. Preparing for the New Semester (2)

On our way, we contacted Altur and received the first semester course list and syllabus.

We created our schedules on horseback, and prepared backup plans 2, 3, and even 4 in case of failure.

It becomes troublesome if course registration fails.

There’s nothing more painful than having to take courses you don’t like.

-Dane Sogress! Please take my course this semester!

-If you just take this course, I can overlook up to 5 absences!

-Not interested in this course? I’ll take good care of your grades!

Of course, I received many course solicitations like these.

It’s just that I’m not interested in those courses.

“Dane, have you decided?”

“No, not yet! What about you, Ernest?”

“Me neither! I’m still working on it though!”

“I’m all done! Hurry up, you idiots!”

We shouted to talk to each other on the running horses.

The schedule we completed that way.

This time it’s more focused on major courses than general education.

Naturally, there’s only one course from our Autonomous Department. The one where we spar with Professor Keltas. Everything else is filled with major courses from other departments.

“What? You’re taking a course from our department this time!”

And Leila was happy to see that I had included a Swordsmanship Department major.

Practical Swordsmanship Exploration.

A course where you learn the methodology of swordsmanship used in actual combat, practice it, and apply it to real situations.

The professor is Esteranza.

I applied because I liked the aspect of going into actual combat.

Besides that, there’s the Magic Department, Exploration Department, and even the Language Department.

As for the Magic Department, well, magic is always interesting as usual.

For the Language Department…

Since I used the barbarians’ language after a long time, should I say I wanted to polish it a bit?

Well, I completed my schedule for reasons like that.

Anyway, the Autonomous Department only has one required major course, so I just need to take whatever I want for the rest.

That said, I don’t want to pick something interesting from what others have left behind, so I’m putting my life on the line for course registration like this.

“Ah, will this work?”

“I don’t know. It seems like it’ll fail.”

Of course, those two students are different.

Unlike me, they have to fill their credits tightly.

This is why the Autonomous Department is good.

“Is it possible to transfer departments there, Dane?”

“I don’t know either.”

“We should have looked into it when the seniors were complaining about their departments.”

They say burnout comes around the third year.

Leila seems to be a bit early.

Well, what can you do.

First, we need to succeed in course registration and see.

“Hyah!”

After riding like crazy-

We finally arrived at the Academy and dove into course registration, and I was able to successfully register for all courses.

On the other hand.

“…What is this.”

“This is a disaster…?”

The two seem to have failed somewhat.

The funny thing is, for the respective majors we agreed to take together, I succeeded while they both failed.

“This doesn’t make sense! Why can’t a major student take their own major course!”

“I need to take this to graduate… If I take it next year, I’ll have to take it with freshman friends…”

It’s very unfortunate, but what can you do.

It’s not like I can give up either.

If I were from a completely different department it would be one thing, but isn’t the Autonomous Department accessible to any major?

“Well, that’s unfortunate.”

“…I’m starting to hate Dane a little for the first time. What do you think, Leila?”

“I’ve felt that way for a while. Does he have talent for course registration too now?”

I chuckled at the sight of the two grumbling and thinking of Plan B.

Anyway, I caught my breath.

Now let me gather some magic stones and then go visit Viscount Otier.

To create the core ingredient for a revolutionary medicine that has never existed before.

“Oh, Dane. You’re back?”

“Teacher Dane! You’ve returned!”

“What? You came earlier than expected?”

“Dane, you’re here?”

When I went to the club room to gather magic stones, my friends welcomed me.

Priscilla, Dorian, Altur, Jenna.

“Why does it feel like it’s been so long since we’ve seen each other?”

“Well, we were stuck together almost constantly during the semester and vacation.”

I chuckled at Priscilla’s words.

“Nothing happened to everyone, right?”

“It’s only been a few days, so nothing major. Everyone was busy though. With course registration and all. Speaking of which, how did course registration go?”

“It went well. That’s why I came a bit early. I rode like crazy.”

“Ah.”

Sinking into the sofa, I finally feel like I’m back.

I came straight here without even washing and barely finished course registration.

“Kyuruk.”

Karnas also seemed ready to rest now, popping out of my arms with a puff, walking on the sofa, then tucking himself into a corner.

“Karnas is tired too. How much did you ride the horse?”

“A lot. Without rest.”

“What about Chiron?”

“He’s energetic.”

By the way, I sent Chiron to Bonia Forest on his own.

Since he ran excitedly this time, he’ll probably be quiet for a while.

But there’s no time to rest like this.

I immediately got up from the sofa and headed to the club room safe to take out magic stones.

“Where are you going again?”

“I’m going to Viscount Otier and then visiting the underground city.”

“Ah, to Darbado?”

I nodded at Priscilla’s question.

“I have a lot to do.”

“Anyone would think you’re a professor.”

“Really.”

That’s why I’m also refusing Saul Hanston’s proposal. The proposal from none other than that Saul Hanston.

“Want to come along?”

“No. I’d like to go, but I have a scripture assignment right now.”

“You’re busy too.”

“Upper years are always like this. If transferring departments were possible, I really would have done it.”

By the way, once you enter the Department of Sacred Studies, there’s no turning back.

Since you’ve devoted yourself to the sacred, turning your back on God is impossible, or something like that.

“Altur, Jenna. If you’ve finished course registration and have nothing to do, want to come along?”

“That sounds good.”

“Great! I’m excited!”

Leila and Ernest will be busy reviving their ruined course registrations, so I’ll take these two along.

As we left the Academy, which was quiet due to vacation, Altur asked.

“How was the Eastern Territory?”

“It’s a long story. Things I never expected kept exploding left and right.”

“I figured as much.”

“What happened, Dane? I’m curious!”

On the way, I first told them about the war that happened in the Eastern Territory.

“Does that… make sense?”

“Woooow…”

The two reactions I expected came out.

“No, let me organize this. You went to see Leila’s Big Brother, then you discovered barbarians who had infiltrated the garrison, and afterwards there was an attack on another garrison which you stopped?”

“Something like that.”

“…You’re writing a heroic epic all by yourself.”

Altur looked at me with an expression that said he absolutely couldn’t believe it, while Jenna’s eyes sparkled as always.

“Dane is amazing.”

“I hope that reaction lasts long.”

“Huh?”

“Ernest and Leila reacted like that at first too.”

Though they became indifferent in just one year.

Seeing how they didn’t even get surprised in front of Saul Hanston, I guess that says it all.

But what should I do.

The story that will make Altur faint is just beginning.

“No, you stopped a war…? That’s impossible…”

In the midst of this, suitable evidence appeared to make Altur believe.

“Oh my, the youngest Young Master of the Sogress County has done something.”

“Last time he achieved merit in subjugating heretics, and this time he protected our forces against barbarians in the Eastern Territory!”

“How does the Sogress County only have such good talent.”

The place where people gathered to discuss something was right in front of the newspaper stand.

On the front page of the newspaper Jenna quickly ran to buy, it was written like this.

[Dane Sogress Defeats Eastern Territory Barbarians!]

My achievements written below a title that wasn’t propagandistic and contained only facts.

“It’s… real.”

Altur finally seemed to believe it.

It’s not that he didn’t believe me.

It was just so absurd to anyone that it took some time to believe, that was the problem.

“Dane, you’re really amazing…”

Jenna was impressed once again.

By the way, the timing of this article is perfect.

Reading roughly, it said that barbarians launched a surprise attack under Drenick’s orders, but fortunately it was concluded without major damage to our forces.

“Those damn Drenick bastards should be torn apart!”

“The wounds of war are just starting to heal!”

“Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor says he will clearly hold Drenick responsible instead of war!”

The Imperial Central Newspaper is meant to convey the Imperial Palace’s position to the Empire’s citizens anyway.

In that sense, the Emperor seems to want to maintain an integration and peace stance for the time being rather than war.

Even Edward apparently isn’t returning from the battlefield and continues to stay there.

For now, it seems like a good thing.

Well, now it’s something for the Imperial Palace to handle.

“Oh, Dane. His Majesty the Emperor is planning to invite you to the Imperial Palace soon to commend you?”

I went there last time, so what am I supposed to hear by going again.

Imperial Palace this, Imperial Palace that, but being called too often is also troublesome.

It’s not easy to refuse when it’s a summons from the Imperial Palace itself.

“You’ve had quite an adventure.”

“A battlefield. I can’t even imagine.”

I just hope these two keep it to imagination.

In the midst of this, my communication crystal was literally on fire.

I guess the impact was quite big this time.

A battlefield, no less.

Following Big Sister and Little Sister, even Mother and Father.

How quick they are with news.

After having a brief moment of cold sweat, I immediately headed to Viscount Otier’s research lab.

“You’ve arrived, my benefactor!”

By the way, Viscount Otier still doesn’t know my identity.

I’ll tell him someday, but I don’t want to reveal it right now.

“Viscount Otier. Have you been well?”

“Of course. You said you were going far away, did your business go well?”

“Of course.”

Viscount Otier quickly greeted Altur as well.

“Oh my, Lord Altur is here too. The Magic Tower Master is inside as well. Ah, and this person is…”

“I’m Jenna Shirodil! I’m Altur’s friend, and I know this person!”

“Ah. Nice to meet you, Lady Jenna. You’re a friend of our benefactor!”

Jenna tactfully used an appropriate word to refer to me while exchanging pleasant greetings.

“I’ll escort everyone inside.”

Viscount Otier headed to his research lab, passing through the research facility, or more precisely, the ‘integrated production factory’ he was newly setting up.

“Equipment is coming into the factory one by one. Once everything is set up, concentrated and efficient production will be possible in one place.”

By the way, this integrated production factory was Sidrain’s idea.

Since we acquired Count Altair’s businesses that were operated in a scattered manner, let’s reorganize them.

It’s easier to manage and can increase production efficiency, so there’s no reason not to do it.

Of course, I provided the funding.

“How is Count Altair doing these days?”

“He’s fallen into despair and abandoned everything, just drinking. I’m thinking of visiting him later. Still, seeing his will to make a comeback burn, he doesn’t seem completely hopeless.”

“Please handle that side exclusively, Viscount Otier.”

“Of course. Just leave it to me.”

By the way, Viscount Otier seems particularly excited today.

It can’t just be because he’s meeting me after a long time.

I could understand the reason soon.

Viscount Otier, who entered the research lab, guided us to his workbench with an extremely excited expression.

“My benefactor. Finally… it seems to be complete.”

Viscount Otier handed me a small ampoule with trembling hands.

“This is the medicine for my daughter.”
