Chapter 1065 – 1065. Magic School Shutra (7)
‘… As expected, the house was the problem.’
====================
[Ideal type: Father]
====================
In an instant, I understood Ariel’s attitude and temperament, which I had not understood until now.
I don’t even know what Ariel’s father is.
However, Ariel loved her father not only as a child, but also as a daughter, and in the process, the same temperament as before was formed.
After seeing the temperament window, I was curious about her inner thoughts…
‘For now, let’s find out about the family later.’
I decided to give up my curiosity for now.
While discussing the issue of Hanelone and Milena, you can’t just ask about her father.
I opened my mouth thinking that.
“First, I know what the chairman was thinking. I also plan to sincerely apologize. But…”
“… ?”
“If apologizing doesn’t solve the problem, the situation will get more serious.”
“But… “The first step is important.”
When Ariel didn’t eat the apple, she seemed to have a rough idea of what would happen.
I sent a warning message and made them realize that that guess could turn into reality.
“In the worst case, not only me, but the two of you may be forced to resign together.”
“Off…”
As if my warning message had worked, Ariel let out a strong spitting voice with a serious expression on her face.
Ariel, who cried out several times like that…
“Then what should I do…” .”
He started looking at me as if pleading for an answer.
Even for her brilliant brain, this was her first time in a situation like this, and she seemed unable to even find a clue to find a solution.
Ariel somehow manages to get together with Hanelone and Milena… And it seemed like he wanted to save everyone, including me.
And I laughed inside while looking at Ariel like that.
‘Good. ‘I’ve come this far.’
She expected that if Ariel values trust and responsibility, she would come out like this.
Although I was a bit surprised by the various abnormalities revealed in the middle…
‘Okay then… Should I throw it?’
I thought so and threw a bait that Ariel could never ignore.
***
The sun, which had been shining golden until now, gradually began to decline, and before we knew it, a red sunset heralded the night.
The setting sun was dimly illuminating the interior of the student council room.
A quiet student council room covered in red light.
Someone entered the student council room.
Dalkak.
The being who entered the student council room first naturally activated the mana stone inside the student council room and began to light up the surroundings.
The student council room shines as brightly as day due to the mana stones.
The being that activated the mana stones inside the student council room one after another headed to the place where the last mana stone was located.
Student president’s desk.
As soon as that being activated the mana stone on the student council president’s desk…
“Whoa…”
With a sigh, I sat down in the student council president’s seat.
The mana stone slowly increased its brightness and began to illuminate the face of the sitting being.
The identity of the face revealed like that…
“Whoa… It’s hard.”
Ariel… He was the student council president of Shutra.
Even though she was the student council president, Ariel was the first to come to the student council room and get her seat stamped.
For Ariel, this situation was like everyday life.
1st year, 2nd year… And even when she became the student president, if there were no special problems, she was the first to turn on the lights in the student council room.
However, she was not flattered for coming early, nor did she ever criticize her members for coming late.
The reason she always came so early was simply because of her personality.
She feels responsible for her position.
Doing your best to perform the duties or tasks given to you.
That was it.
However, even Ariel, who was so thorough and diligent, had one drawback.
As soon as…
“Ha… After all, leading people is the hardest.”
The point was that it lacked sociability.
Ariel’s strong sense of responsibility was the driving force behind her growth, but her opposition made her perceive her connections as unnecessary elements.
And it was the same even after she entered Shutra.
As soon as she entered school, she received a lot of attention thanks to her good looks, but due to her concentration on her studies, she failed to make any friends.
She became even more serious after becoming a member of the student council.
Although she did not have much student council work, she only had a limited amount of work, not none at all.
Ariel even had the style of creating things and dealing with them.
Study and work.
She had long since lost her companionship by seeing both at the same time.
But Ariel didn’t really care about that problem.
Rather than making friends, she focused on self-improvement, and thanks to her friendship with seniors on the student council, she didn’t feel left out.
There have been no major problems so far.
All she had to do was take strictly scheduled classes and faithfully complete the assigned tasks.
In other words, sociability was not very important until now.
The problem is now…
“Ha… “I think I know why my senior was worried about me.”
The former student council president, who handed over her position to Ariel, was worried about Ariel.
Even though her grades were excellent, and she performed her duties almost perfectly, there was only one reason to worry.
Sociability.
Although Ariel had outstanding charisma, she had the problem of being weak at resolving interpersonal problems.
And her former student council president was well aware of Ariel’s problems.
Her former student council president handed over to Ariel and gave her a piece of advice as if giving her homework.
.
.
Last winter semester, student council room.
The former student council president spoke alone with Ariel after completing her handover.
“Great job. It must have been difficult for her to take over.”
“No. I was rather surprised… She thought the student body president’s duties would be much more…”
It was an answer that seemed to disparage the position of the student council president, but the former student council president actually smiled at Ariel’s words.
Even the former student council president knew this.
What a sincere and responsible junior Ariel is.
She is a junior who creates and solves problems that have never existed before.
From the perspective of such a junior, it would have been difficult to understand the student president’s job, whose workload had been drastically reduced.
The former student council president opened his mouth with a serious expression after seeing through Ariel’s inner thoughts.
“It might seem that way. Ariel, in your eyes.”
“Yes? However, if you look at the handover details, there is nothing in particular…”
“Yes.”
“… ?”
Instead of looking at Ariel’s puzzled expression, the former student council president began to look inside her student council room.
And like that, she continued the conversation in a calm voice.
“Actually, I thought Edgar Horwitz would be a better candidate for student body president than you. In fact, I still think that way.”
The voice was calm, but it was extremely rude.
The former student council president graduated at the top of his class in the fall semester and had already received an offer to be appointed as a professor.
In other words, she was the one who would receive the offer and become a professor once the transfer of student president was completed.
Professor of Shutra.
To an unfamiliar person, it would seem that his true nature was revealed due to his position as a professor.
However, Ariel asked a question with a calm answer to her calm rudeness.
“Is it because I don’t have enough skills?”
Ariel’s eyes were full of curiosity, not displeasure.
The reason Ariel revealed her curiosity rather than her displeasure was because she trusted her former student council president.
Although she sometimes jokes, she was never one to assert her authority and inflict mental violence.
She thought that there must be a reason for such a person to say such a thing.
At Ariel’s confident response, her former student council president smiled again, looking at her with surprise.
“Hmm… As expected, it’s amazing. If I had heard something like this from a senior in the past, I would have immediately blushed and huffed.”
“The most calm time in this world is when something is pointed out to you. Only then can you be reborn as an upright human being… That’s what my father said.”
“… “You really are a great father.”
“Thank you.”
“And now I think I know, your problem…”
“… Yes?”
Ariel made a puzzled expression again.
Seeing Ariel like that, the former student council president spoke to her seriously.
“You judge every situation calmly… Going further, we look at all human issues calmly.”
“Uh… Is that the problem… ?”
Haha…”
Ariel honestly didn’t think it was a problem.
Because she, Ariel, had been taught that way by her father.
However, even Ariel could not easily refute her point.
“You create tasks that don’t exist and handle them perfectly, but you tend to avoid problems with people you can see.”
“…”
Ariel couldn’t make any excuses.
The student council members are made up of top students, but they are also human, so there can be no conflict.
And when there was such a conflict, Ariel had an instinctive tendency to avoid it without even realizing it.
It wasn’t because she didn’t like it.
“You’re trying to solve people’s problems, but you’re ignoring them because they might become bigger problems.”
This was because she often saw cases where her involvement led to bigger problems.
Seeing Ariel’s bitter appearance, her former student council president patted her on the shoulder as if comforting her.
“But I chose you in the end.”
“Why… ?”
“It’s because I wanted to make you the right person rather than choosing the right person right now.”
“Ah…”
Ariel was moved by the words of the former student council president.
After giving Ariel a pat on the shoulder, her former student council president left her behind and headed towards the door of her student council room.
She then left her last words as she left the student council room.
“The person who can lead others is not someone who has quick hands and feet, but someone who is good at handling those who move their hands and feet. “I hope you can become that kind of person in one year.”
The former student council president left with those words.
Ariel nodded, remembering the image of the former student president who had already left.
“I will do my best.”
.
.
The moment Ariel uttered her last words…
“Chairman?”
“Ugh!?”
Suddenly, I came to my senses when I heard a voice.
Ariel woke up in a half-asleep state and looked around.
Outside the window, covered in darkness, even the light of the sunset has disappeared.
And the mana stones shine brightly as if they will not give in to such darkness.
And…
“You must be tired.”
She was Louise, smiling gently at herself.
Ariel felt embarrassed by her appearance and she carefully rubbed the area around her eyes.
“The student council president sleeping in the student council room… “I am not qualified to be the student council president.”
She reprimanded herself and shook off her drowsiness.
However, in response to Ariel’s rebuke, Louis instead spoke to her as if reprimanding her.
“Don’t say that. “If the student council president is asleep, everyone here will understand.”
“Haha… Thank you for the comfort.”
Ariel felt relieved by Louis’ words and shook off the drowsiness that remained until the end.
Let’s bring her to her senses…
“Oh that… Chairman.”
“Huh?”
Louis noticed her and called Ariel.
Ariel looked at Louis’ appearance and could roughly guess what he was going to say.
Counseling regarding the opposite sex.
Ariel didn’t think she would be of any help to Louis, so she tried to refuse…
‘… This is also the student council president’s job.’
She remembered the words of the former student president and granted Lewis’ request.
It was the moment when I was getting ready to have another conversation about a person of the opposite sex that I was not interested in.
“If it’s okay, do you have time this holiday?”
“Huh? Day off… ?”
When we say holidays, we mean Saturday and Sunday.
And that day…
‘Ah… Right. On the weekend…’
A pre-order had already been made.
Ariel sighed bitterly and answered Louise as if she were apologizing.
“Sorry. I have an appointment on holidays… I got caught.”
“Ah… Okay. So then what…”
It was the moment when Lewis was about to let out a sigh of regret.
“That… Chairman.”
Louis stopped talking and called Ariel with a serious expression.
Ariel seemed puzzled by Louis’ expression, which she had not seen before, and she responded to his call.
“Huh? Why?”
“If… “You don’t have a promise with Seong Su-ho, do you?”
“Uh… ? W-what are you talking about!? Why me…”
Ariel responded as if she was angry at Louis without realizing it, and Louis was slightly embarrassed by Ariel’s appearance and apologized.
“Ah… Sorry. I said something strange. There’s no way the Chairman would spend his holidays with a guy like that…”
However, Lewis was smiling while apologizing.
Ariel was puzzled for a moment by her appearance, but she opened her mouth with relief.
“That… That’s right.”
“I’m sorry for talking nonsense.”
At the same time as Lewis’ apology, three student council members came in at the same time.
“Hanelone, where did you go yesterday…” .”
“Ha, senior… Please…”
“… “I’m here.”
As the remaining student council members came in, the conversation between Ariel and Louis naturally ended.
And Ariel sighed in relief…
‘Fuuuuu… I never thought they would suddenly bring up Seong Su-ho’s name…’
Afterward, I let out a series of sighs filled with guilt.
‘Haaa… I accidentally lied, but… That would be fine.’
As I sighed inwardly, the image of Lewis happened to catch my eye.
A junior smiling at himself.
Ariel responded to Louis’s appearance with a bitter smile and thought to herself.
‘Going out with Seong Su-ho… There’s no need to tell Louis that.’
