After all, Hulim did not come to Manax to make friends. Such an isolation policy might be uncomfortable for others, but it was just right for Hulim.
It saves a lot of meaningless social interactions and allows you to focus more on studying magic.
And there is no need to worry too much about whether the other party will do anything out of line. It is okay if it is a private matter between students, and Manax will not interfere too much. But if the power beyond that scope is used and threatens the personal safety of students, the academy will not remain indifferent.
Although the Manakos School of Magic is located in Langard, it has never been under the control of the Empire, and the Empire does not have the ability to control Manakos. The two sides have always been in a state of equal dialogue.
Under normal circumstances, Manax would not interfere in the internal affairs of the empire. For example, during the turmoil three hundred years ago, because it originated from within the empire, Manax was a bystander throughout the whole process and did not take any action. The rebels were not crazy enough to come here and cause trouble.
For the same reason, Manax doesn't interfere with the Empire, and the Empire doesn't interfere with Manax. If any nobles are really foolish enough to attack the Academy, then Manax will make them understand what it means to be equal to the Empire...
Hulim was only affected by this turmoil, but the impact was not too great. Even many people in the special class did not notice that she was isolated. The person who really changed the most was another person.
The ninth princess of the empire——Alicia Sirions.
After all, all of this was directed at her.
When they first entered school, many people did not know the inside story of the power struggle among the imperial high-level officials, so they showed respect to the Ninth Princess.
Now, after the hostile faction took action, more and more people understood, or were forced to understand the pros and cons, and ultimately chose to stay away from the Ninth Princess.
After all, the other party was of noble status, so it would be best not to approach casually, otherwise it would be too rude. In short, the noble boys and girls who had surrounded the Ninth Princess and flattered her on the first day all made excuses with a somewhat embarrassed look on their faces.
The result is——
Alicia Sirions was isolated.
... ...
... ...
"Hulim, are you going out?"
In the dormitory, Mi Ke asked.
"Well, I have something to do outside the academy."
Hulim was carrying a backpack, a sword on his back, and a wand in his hand, obviously planning to go out.
Although Hulim was isolated, that did not include Miko. Even for the imperial nobles, it was still very difficult to influence the orcs from countries of the same level as the empire through private means.
After telling Miko that she might be back late that night, Hulim left the dormitory with her bag and walked out of the college.
... ...
Lower town.
"... Yesterday I withdrew the money my father deposited with me. After calculating, it should be enough to pay back the elf shop owner and repair the mithril sword."
When dealing with the underground organization, in order to make up for Milong Mengxiang's loss, Hulim also tried to find a place to store money in the base.
Unfortunately, these underground organizations have a strict way of managing money. They simply won't leave money in locations where a large number of members come and go. After all, none of the members of the underground organizations have clean hands...
And I don’t know if this habit extends to everyone, but these members of the underground organization only carry the necessary money with them, and the extra money is kept in a place only they know.
The result was that although Hulim searched the scene when he was cleaning it up, the amount of money he found was disappointing.
Of course, the weapons used by these people and some of the props on their bodies are also very valuable, but Hulim has no intention of touching these things.
Because the things used in the underground world can be recognized by others, if you exchange them for money, you will be exposed immediately...
Although the outcome of that battle was disappointing, but with his original money, he was able to repay the elf shop owner. However, the mithril sword was severely damaged during the battle, and it would definitely cost a lot of money to repair it.
... ...
After a while, Hulim came to the inconspicuous potion shop again.
"Ding-ling~!"
Push the door open and go inside.
"You're here, have you collected enough money?"
Just like last time, a ghostly voice rang in my ears.
But Hulim was mentally prepared and looked to the right calmly.
"Yes, I got the money my father deposited in Langard yesterday."
"Eh, is that so—"
The elf said, and then walked towards the store.
"Come sit inside for a moment. Let's not worry about paying the money back. I'd rather hear what you did at the dock that day."
“… …”
Did I guess it after all? After all, since we know about the magic potion called Milong Mengxiang, the symptoms of poisoning are naturally clear. The authorities did not cover up the fact that the rescued illegal slaves slept for a day and a night.
When they found that they couldn't save him no matter what they did, they thought he was doomed, so they even called in many famous potion masters in the city.
As a potion master, the elf shop owner was not surprised to know about this matter, and it was natural for him to immediately guess that it was related to himself based on the symptoms of those people.
So... what now?
Tell her honestly—
Wouldn't that expose all of my attributes?
