Chapter 1095 – 1095. Magic School Shutra (7)
I waited about 10 minutes after Ariel left and headed to the front door.
As I was heading towards the front door, I had no choice but to stop again.
The reason I stopped was simple.
‘What? Why are they crowded together like that?’
This was because a huge crowd of people had gathered at the main gate.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the question to be resolved.
‘It’s because of Ariel.’
All the students near the main gate were surrounding Ariel.
The reason she received so much attention was not just because of her title as student president.
“Chairman! “Where did you buy this dress?”
“Please let me know too! “Which store can I buy it at?”
“Hey, can you live just by knowing? “Just looking at this, it fits.”
“And… I have never seen such a pretty dress in my life…”
It was because of the dress she was wearing.
And since their interest was dresses, all the students who flocked there were female students.
Except for one person.
‘Why is he there again…? .’
Lewis was also buried in the crowd.
However, even though Louis was close to Ariel, he did not feel particularly uncomfortable.
‘Well, there’s no way I’m going to change my mind now.’
I believed in Ariel’s heart.
The fact that I have no intention of being shaken by someone like Lewis…
‘But just in case, please give me a posthumous name.’
So she asked Armonia.
However, the answer I received over the phone was completely different from what I expected.
[First, I think we need to solve the problem that occurred with Mr. Shiho.]
‘Problem?’
I wondered if there would be a problem with Siho.
Even souls cannot feel at ease in Yggdrasil, but this is Shutra.
It is a world where even the dean, who is considered a god, cannot detect souls.
Problems arise for the soul in a place like that…
[What is the problem with the soul? It must be because of the soul.]
‘… Ah!’
There are a total of two souls in Shutra that I know.
Siho and…
‘Claudia… ?’
[Yes, the two people happened to run into each other and a problem arose. Please go and solve it.]
I nodded to Kang Han-na’s words and quickly but carefully headed toward the front door.
‘I hope it doesn’t get noticed…’
In order not to get caught up in strange rumors, he deliberately tried to return with some time between him and Ariel.
I thought that if someone found me, there was a high possibility that they would become involved with Ariel and the rumor would spread.
But my worries quickly evaporated as I passed through the front door.
‘And… ‘No one is paying attention.’
Surprisingly, no one among that large crowd paid attention to me.
Rather, I couldn’t help but smile at that situation.
I was the type of person who was bothered by the attention I received from my family.
‘Just in case, use stealth…’
The moment you try to hide like that…
‘… That kid is staring at me again.’
I saw Lewis’ disgusting eyes.
Lewis’ eyes are pouring out wonder and contempt towards me.
Louis suddenly looked back and forth between me and Ariel with a puzzled expression.
It was as if he had sensed that there was something between me and Ariel.
But I ignored Lewis’s expression and just used stealth.
When I used stealth, Lewis looked around with a surprised expression and started looking for me.
I smiled as I saw Lewis trying so hard to find me.
‘Please don’t give up on Ariel and try hard.’
Only then will you be able to entertain me with greater despair.
I smiled to myself and headed to the dormitory.
.
.
Surprisingly, my smile continued even after returning to the dormitory.
I spoke over the phone while maintaining an empty smile.
‘… It’s no big deal.’
And Armonia answers my words calmly.
[It’s not a big deal, but a problem is a problem.]
However, unlike Armonia, Kang Han-na answers in a sharp voice, as if she is slightly offended.
[It doesn’t seem like a big deal to me, right? Please take Siho’s side quickly.]
‘Haha…’
I responded to Kang Han-na’s discomfort with an awkward smile and looked inside the dormitory.
In a dormitory that only allowed men, there were a total of three women in my room.
“Ah, master, are you here?”
Lena calmly stands and greets me…
(This is my territory? Get out quickly!)
(Territory? Is it an animal? Oh, you’re questioning that because I’m a fox ghost? But what? I was the one who settled in first, right?)
(How old are you!!)
(Wow, you’ll be surprised when I get older~?)
There were Shiho and Claudia, growling and fighting without even knowing I had come in.
Two women fighting over territory in my room, which is a restricted area for women.
I smiled helplessly and started mediation.
“It came out.”
(Oppa~~!!)
(What, oppa!? Oh, my…)
Siho welcomed me and rushed towards me, and Claudia shuddered and grumbled.
Claudia’s grumbles fueled the fight again.
(Who cares what I call you!)
(Yeah, yeah~ Looking at it, I was still at the age where I needed an older brother. I feel sorry for this girl~)
(Kwaaaaang!)
(Ugh! Let go of this!)
Shiho rushed at Claudia and started a real dog fight.
“Shiho, calm down for a moment. And Claudia, don’t provoke her.”
I quickly separated the two people again.
In most dog fights like this, it is not easy to separate them, but fortunately, I was able to easily separate them with my hands.
(…)
(…)
It seemed like he thought that looking after his own opinion was more important than protecting his pride.
I looked at the two people who were glaring at each other, looking at me like that, and spoke to them one by one.
The first person to speak was Siho.
“Shiho, I’m sorry, but Ariel will be at the front door right now. “I will ask you to monitor me as before.”
(Yes, okay. Oppa.)
Even though Shiho was angry from the fight just moments ago, he nodded obediently to my request and left the room.
However, there was actually someone else who got angry instead of Shiho.
[Why are you sending a signal? We have to kick that woman out.]
In Kang Han Na’s eyes, it seemed as if I was taking Claudia’s side rather than Siho’s.
It was completely understandable why Kang Han-na would be angry.
I can endure the humiliation I received, but I will never be able to endure the humiliation of someone I cherish.
First, I calmed Kang Han-na down.
‘No matter how close I am to Claudia, will I still like her as much as Shiho? Please wait a moment.’
[Still…]
‘Don’t worry, I’ll call you goodbye as soon as Claudia is sorted out.’
[… Okay.]
It seemed like he couldn’t completely shake off his dissatisfaction, but fortunately, he understood what I was saying.
After calming Kang Han-na down like that, I started talking to Claudia.
“Do you know what you did wrong?”
(…)
I thought he would shout loudly and act like a child, but fortunately nothing like that bothered him.
I sighed and said to Claudia.
“You might be upset, but if I had to take only one side, I would definitely take Shiho’s side.”
(Hmph… It looked like that~)
Perhaps because she took Shiho’s side too much, Claudia turned her head away as if upset.
However, I paid no heed to Claudia’s appearance and continued to explain.
“That’s why I like Shiho more, but there are other reasons as well.”
(…?)
Claudia looks at me with a sullen expression and no response.
Even though he was upset, he seemed curious.
“The person who will create Claudia’s body is close to Siho. “If that person finds out about this situation, no matter how much I ask, he won’t give me a body.”
(Ah…)
Claudia seemed to understand his position even as she pursed her lips.
And while looking at Claudia like that, I was able to realize one thing.
“For now, I will take care of Shiho, so don’t worry. “Now let’s stop talking about what we said before.”
(A story told before…?)
I nodded and sat down on the bed.
Then he asked with a calm expression.
“Have you decided?”
(… I did it.)
I didn’t give an exact answer, but I had a rough idea of what the answer would be.
The appearance of Claudia shown earlier when talking about the body.
From the looks of it, the answer was almost certain.
(… I’ll ask you a favor.)
Claudia decided to face her dean again.
However, despite the decision she made with her mouth, her expression did not convey confidence.
I smiled bitterly at Claudia’s appearance and answered.
“I told you to make a decision, but it doesn’t mean you’ll be meeting with the dean right away, so don’t worry. However, I only said this to let you know what the situation is.”
I indirectly told Claudia how important her posthumous name was.
I felt sorry for Claudia, but it was an unavoidable choice.
First of all, Claudia is a colleague who will soon part ways, while Shiho is like a spouse who will spend the rest of her life together.
Moreover, Kang Han-na is watching with a light in her eyes, so you shouldn’t take Claudia’s side even more.
Claudia understood what I said and smiled bitterly and nodded.
(Okay, I’ll apologize later.)
When I saw Claudia’s sullen appearance, I started to feel sorry.
If the reason they fought was because of Shiho…
“But how did we fight?”
(Ah… That’s…)
The situation was roughly like this.
Claudia, who was staying at her dean’s residence, came to my room for the first time in a while, and happened to meet her sister-in-law while Lena was sleeping.
And…
(Suddenly a ghost comes out and uses magic without me knowing…)
“…”
Claudia was so surprised that she punched the first bread.
‘It was like this before, but why are you so afraid of ghosts when you yourself are a ghost? .’
Afterward, Lena woke up while fighting with Shiho, and with Lena’s explanation, the fight between the two had entered a lull.
Thanks to this, she was able to shake off some of her sorry feelings toward Claudia.
“When I get a seat, please apologize then.”
(… Yes. I will definitely apologize.)
Claudia was well aware of her mistakes.
‘When you speak so honestly, it seems like you are well aware of your mistakes.’
[… That’s right.]
The problem was that as we fought, our emotions became so intense that our pride swallowed our guilt.
First, make the reconciliation official later…
“I think the decision has been made… Are you still anxious?”
Even though she had been around the dean all day, she still seemed unconvinced.
When I saw Claudia’s appearance, I also started to feel anxious.
‘Aren’t we really going back to the way things used to be?’
If the dean turns back to his old self… The Claudia resurrection project must be scrapped immediately.
Currently in Shutra: Luna, Karin, Sonya, Anna, etc… The reason the women I love can live happy lives is because of peace.
If the dean turns back to his old self, this peace will be shattered overnight.
While I was so anxious, Claudia shook her head.
(That guy has also changed a lot… I guess the worst that I thought won’t come.)
The worst case scenario that Claudia mentioned would be similar to what I imagined earlier.
A future in which the peace that the Dean himself built will be destroyed by his own hands.
Claudia continued to observe the dean’s life, and seemed to be somewhat convinced that such a future would not come.
Still, the reason she was anxious was…
(Sometimes he even brought up my name.)
It was because of myself.
Since the dean never sleeps in his life, it was said that it was of her own volition to put Claudia’s name in her mouth.
I was curious.
“What did you say?”
What did the dean say when he included Claudia’s name?
But Claudia shook her head and answered.
(No.)
“…”
(He just said his name and sat with an expressionless expression.)
He only said the name, but didn’t say anything…
I thought I knew why Claudia was anxious.
It is scary how the dean will treat the person who has survived.
Nevertheless, the reason why Claudia decided…
(But I have made up my mind. I want to make that guy pay in some way.)
He was prepared to accept whatever the dean felt towards him.
‘How do you feel, Hanna? Don’t you reflect on what happened earlier and feel sorry for it?’
[… It’s pitiful.]
There was a real reason why I took out my anger on Kang Han-na by treating Claudia harshly.
[Whoa… I can’t put you in trouble just because I don’t like that girl.]
‘Then…’
[Now, I will take the body and synchronize it with that woman’s soul.]
It was the moment when the final procedure for the Claudia Resurrection Project was approved.
