Chapter 197 – Chapter 02: The Gold Half Is a Warrior, the Other Half Is XXX
Since the academy’s professors are people hired solely based on their skills, many of them are commoners. Let’s consider that many of the nobles are also unable to properly teach the students who enroll because they are commoners.
Only then can we say that the academy, which was established with the purpose of nurturing talent, is functioning properly?
Of course, conversely, one could have thought that the professor could carry out evil acts with the authority of the imperial family at his back.
The imperial family has carefully prepared the safety measures for this, so the important thing now is that even if Rona is a noble, she cannot ignore the professor.
Even if the professor is a commoner. If she were to quit her professorship, she wouldn’t know it, but even if she were a noblewoman inside her academy, she wouldn’t have the upper hand over her professor.
As such, it was no wonder that she was embarrassed by her current situation, which could be misunderstood as challenging her professor’s authority with her own authority.
“Well, that…” … , It’s not like that…”
“Otherwise, why aren’t you sitting down? Hmm… ?”
That’s why, even though Lorna looks like she doesn’t know how to make an excuse, she somehow tries to get up from her seat with her legs that have lost their strength.
Her professor looked like he couldn’t understand the sight, but then he tilted his head as if he remembered something about her, then got off his desk and walked towards her. And…
“… Tsk, it looks like there has been a fight since the first day in the admissions room?”
The professor in charge who approached Lorna like that understood her condition at a glance by getting closer and clicked her tongue.
That’s because Lorna’s appearance was quite familiar to the professor in charge of the Combat Department, whose level of skill was high enough to reach the level of a superhuman.
She is showing the typical physical reaction of someone who has been crushed by the force of this powerful person who has reached a level higher than her own.
Through him, her professor was able to figure out what happened to her in that moment.
Even if he was not a person with special abilities in the first place, it was a case that was quite familiar to professors working at the academy.
“It looks like you started a fight without knowing who the other person was, but take this incident as a lesson and avoid picking fights with others while you are living at the academy.”
Class A, where students with top grades gathered, was generally attended by students with their own concepts.
It may be said to be a prejudice, but isn’t it an inevitable reality that those who invest a lot of time in self-discipline to maintain their grades have a lower rate of accidents?
Therefore, it is rare in Class A, but to put it another way, accidents happen quite often in lower classes.
And the most frequent accident among them is when students fight among themselves.
“Any combative action is completely prohibited within the academy. This time, the difference in level with the opponent was so great that it didn’t seem to result in a battle, but if you use your special abilities and engage in battle, you will be expelled regardless of the reason, even if it is for any reason other than self-defense, so be careful.”
Also, due to the nature of the academy, where everyone in the combat department has special abilities, and people with special abilities also exist in other departments, there were quite a few cases where, if a dispute arose, she would show up like the current Lorna.
As the professor warned, if students begin to use their supernatural powers and fight each other in earnest, in most cases this will lead to expulsion.
As such, when there is a fight between students, especially when there is a fight between students with special abilities, there are many cases where they do not engage in battle and end up fighting each other for momentum.
And as a result, when one side’s level was overwhelmingly higher than the other, the side with a lower level showed the same appearance as the current Rona.
So, we can’t help but be familiar with the sight of Rona, who was overwhelmed by the professor’s force and lost all strength.
Although the class I was in charge of this time was Class A, the professor also had experience in other classes.
Wooooow!
“Huh… ?!”
Therefore, the professor in charge, who knew well how to respond in such cases, grabbed Lorna’s shoulders as she sat down and injected her with his own aura.
“Well, you can move now, right? Go to your seat quickly and take a seat. “Today is the day you entered the academy, so I won’t pursue what happened.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Through him, her muscles, which had been completely relaxed by the overwhelming power of Yeonhwa, were helped to regain their strength.
Lorna, who was somehow able to move through him, carefully pushed down the hem of her skirt and quietly headed to the empty seat and sat down.
“Hmm…”
And just like that, the professor in charge of Lorna moved while thanking herself and checked the place where she had been sitting just a moment ago, frowning slightly at her.
Although it was vague, her sensitive five senses helped Rona understand that it was not just her legs that were weak and unable to get up.
However, as a professor in charge, she could not ignore the dignity of a student in her class, so she pretended not to notice the marks left on her floor and looked away.
“Umm… ?”
Then there is the figure sitting at her desk in front of where Lorna was sitting, and the professor in charge of Yeonhwa making eye contact with her.
She had accumulated enough experience as a professor to be able to infer her approximate situation just from Rona’s appearance, so she immediately figured out that Yeonhwa was the person who had an argument with Rona.
And she was the professor in charge who was planning to say something to Yeonhwa through him.
Although it was good not to fight properly even though a conflict occurred, overpowering the opponent with momentum was also something that could not be highly recommended within the academy.
So, her professor, who was planning on nagging Yeonhwa as an example to her, could not help but let out an incredulous moan the moment he made eye contact with her.
‘Student… , Right?’
As the professor in charge was a power user who had reached the level of a superhuman, he was quite sensitive to the presence of people, but in the view of the professor in charge, Yeonhwa did not show up as a student at all.
‘What is the presence…? …’
The momentum was not overwhelming. In fact, if you look at his presence alone, he is worse than the male student sitting next to him.
However, there was a sense of discomfort that could be felt because he was a person with superhuman abilities.
If I had to explain it, it would be natural, but should we call it an unnatural presence?
It is said that the presence is so natural that it feels strangely artificial.
Does it feel like you are looking at an artificial park that is more natural than nature, which humans have succeeded in creating after careful planning?
‘There’s an elf there?’
Therefore, the professor in charge is bound to be confused by the mere presence of Yeonhwa, and she is a female student who is even an elf, which is hard to find at the academy.
As such, the professor in charge forgot what he wanted to say as a professor and looked perplexed at Yeonhwa’s presence…
“Daemonian… , Clecia… ? Ah… !”
The professor in charge, who was looking at Yeonhwa with such incomprehensible eyes, soon checked Yeonhwa’s imperial name through her nametag and nodded at her.
The professor in charge nodded, understanding the situation by confirming her name, as if he had received word from someone in advance.
Then, he turned his gaze towards Lorna, who had just moved from his seat, and made a strange expression.
If just a moment ago it was a look at a lively adolescent girl, should it be said that this time it was a look at a strange creature?
If one were to interpret the meaning contained in the gaze, the gaze contained the meaning of ‘That guy, is he alive and well?’ Yeonhwa, who had been watching her after the professor in charge entered, smiled faintly. And…
-I guess you heard about this position from the president?
Seeing the professor in charge like that, Yeonhwa was able to understand the general situation, and so she relayed the message to the professor as if it was fun.
Startle!
Then, the professor in charge, who had been shaking her shoulders at the sound of a voice whispering in his ear, soon glanced at Yeonhwa.
-If you think strongly with your intention, the center will read your consciousness on its own, so answer through him.
Yeonhwa, who understood that the meaning of that gaze was the embarrassment that came from the fact that an answer could not be returned, proposed a solution.
‘… I didn’t hear the details, but I received news that a precious person was admitted with his identity hidden.’
The professor in charge conveys her thoughts to Yeonhwa through her humanity by thinking about her solution with the same strong will as she said.
-Ho, so you don’t know the identity of the person in question?
‘I just received a warning from the president to not interfere with you as much as possible…’
-Hehe, that’s enough. Well, if the true identity of this office had been spread around, it would have been a problem for me and the Chamber of Commerce.
The two people make eye contact for a moment without the other students noticing and then exchange their thoughts.
-Have all professors working at the academy received information from the president about their positions?
‘No, I believe only a few people, including me, received it. Especially in my case, I’m guessing that I received it because I was the professor in charge…’
-Yes, it would be appropriate to pass it on to only a small number of people. So, does that mean that some professors don’t know about the position and may be annoying?
Yeonhwa, who understood her general situation through her professor, asked her after taking a moment to think about it.
-How much do you know about this place?
‘… All I know is that it is related to ozone.’
-Ozone? The main seat? … Tsk, if you’re trying to convey authority while hiding the identity of the principal, is that the most appropriate setting? I get it.
Yeonhwa frowns as if she doesn’t really like the professor’s answer, but she doesn’t hold back because she understands that there’s no point in arguing with the professor.
Instead, it was Yeonhwa who seemed to have heard what she wanted to hear and no longer spoke to her, and the woman who was her professor sighed inwardly in relief. And…
‘Hmm… , If this person is the person the president was talking about, then the male student sitting next to him…’
Soon, the professor in charge noticed Eugene sitting next to Yeonhwa, and this time he made eye contact with her…
‘… ‘Handsome is definitely very handsome.’
For a moment, she felt her face turn red without realizing it at the sight of Eugene, or more specifically Stral Zenon, and she hurriedly avoided her gaze.
And then she quickly returns to her teacher’s desk again, fearing that if Yeonhwa finds out about her condition, her books will be caught as well.
“… “There was a brief incident, but it doesn’t seem to be a big deal, so shall we get straight to the point?”
She recovered her complexion quickly, as befits a professor who had reached superhuman status in the short time she spent at her desk, and treated what had just happened as if it had never happened.
Then, she said, she began her orientation to life at the academy, a bit delayed, in earnest in order to proceed with her duties as a professor.
“… Oh, before that, I have something important to tell you, so I want you to pay attention and listen. “This is something more important than just an orientation to the academy’s curriculum.”
No, to be precise, the notice was delivered before the originally planned orientation.
