Chapter 21 – Before It Gets Colder, We Must Do Something Dirty Soon
The professor took me to his lab.
There were no people in the large labs each assigned to a professor at the academy.
Professor Dia Ren is famous for being extremely nervous and demanding, and unlike the alchemy professor, she doesn’t really need her students, so she’s occupying this large space alone.
Anyway, I got to the point.
Because I had an intuition that I would soon reach my limit.
“Professor. Do you have any medicine?”
“It’s something we talk about every time, but please bring out something like saying hello before bringing up business.”
“How you doing?”
“Puck. Especially today I’m in a very bad mood.”
“Why?”
“Why, how could it be that a school student who doesn’t normally sniff around appears out of nowhere and treats this professor as a drug dealer?”
What do you mean
To which rhythm should the professor release the medicine?
My interest was focused only on that.
Professor Diaren, a master of magic, tends to bounce like this whenever I ask for medicine,
She had never given me a simple medicine before.
I’m going to give it anyway, but if I give it gently, where will it go?
… If I said that, it would be medicine and I would be kicked out empty-handed after sleeping, so
I hid my true feelings and fawned.
Normally, I would have been so ashamed and ashamed that I couldn’t have done it.
I was already pushed to the brink of the limit.
“Ah.”
“Something. Suddenly?”
“Aye.”
“Miss Eve, are you finally crazy?”
“Aaaaang.”
“You should know that doing something like that with eyes like a rotten fish will make you think it’s more scary than cute.”
“What’s wrong with my eyes?”
“Did you tell me? It’s scary.”
“There were people who said it was pretty and wanted to dig it up?”
“I wish I hadn’t talked about that madman.”
Professor Diaren growled like a beast baring its teeth.
In an instant, the atmosphere turned ugly, and I realized I had made a mistake.
Ah.
It was like an insult to the professor.
I forgot.
“Sorry.”
“Okay.”
“Then give me some medicine.”
“…”
“Hurry. This quickly I think I will die.”
“You won’t die without that medicine. It just makes me feel a little worse.”
“What if I get dirty and blow this place all over again?”
I spit it out in anger, but
It wasn’t just talk or bravado.
The professor had a look on his face at my words.
“I guess you’re in a bit of a hurry.”
“Best ever.”
“Okay. It looks like To the point where I feel like I’ve endured it.”
As the professor said,
I was in a hurry.
What I’m most worried about is
All the things I’ve been through on my way here today are mere harbingers.
I knew for sure that if I felt worse here, no matter which direction it was expressed, it would have the worst ending.
The professor, who recognized my condition, said nothing more,
He went to one side of the lab and opened a drawer that was sealed several times with magical treatment and took out an item.
My heart, knowing what it meant, started beating out of control.
“Ehehe.”
“I haven’t even taken my medicine yet.”
“It feels good.”
The professor took out a syringe while handling the liquid medicine he found.
After pouring in a small amount of liquid that could not even fill a tenth of a small syringe, he frowned as if it was a waste of a drop that spilled out by tapping the tip like a habit.
My expression would have been no different.
How expensive and precious is that?
I’m going to explain it now, but that was a drug, not a drug.
So it was something that no one else could have, but a professor of magic.
If the crimson magic weed, which blooms only in full moon, spends twelve months unscathed and produces buds, it is something that can only be obtained in very small amounts from a single pistil.
When touched by a person, it reacts to the surrounding mana and turns blue and loses its unique efficacy, so it can only be obtained in the wild and difficult to process. As an alchemist, this is a strange remark, but it was much more valuable than gold.
The explanation was a bit long, but
Anyway, it was an expensive and precious story.
I quickly approached and held out my forearm, and the professor looked down at me and then opened his mouth.
“I’ll let you go if you promise me.”
“Yes, I promise.”
“… I didn’t even speak.”
“I know everything, so hurry up.”
“Don’t ever say you’re going to blow up my lab again, not even as a joke. I still get goosebumps when I think of that time.”
“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind.”
“And don’t skip my lecture. Don’t neglect magic with the lame excuse of being an alchemist…”
“Professor, hurry up.”
I was worried that the professor would change his mind, but fortunately that didn’t happen.
Since I have a constitution that makes it hard to see blood vessels in my arms, and since my partner was neither a doctor nor a nurse, I had to poke my forearm wrongly several times before I could finally get the needle in.
I was given the drug,
Harm – I’m doomed.
The bitter cold is gone,
The terrifying sensation that gnawed at my whole body like an insect immediately changed to a gentle feeling as if it had touched a soft feather.
It was a bonus that I laughed because I couldn’t stand tickling because it felt like I was tickling my body.
“Ehehe. Hehe.”
“Okay, how are you feeling?”
“The best, the best…”
“Ugh.”
“Ah, I’m out of my mind, out of my mind, Professor, can I give you the money next time?”
“What is money? That’s it. I don’t have any projects that I am working on right now.”
“Then, do you have anything you want?”
“Doesn’t exist.”
“… Really?”
“Have you been deceived? Can’t I do that to the academy student who fired a lightning bolt into my lab because of her misfortune in life? They even threatened to blow this place up again today.”
“Professor is the best!”
“Put saliva on your mouth and speak. And I’m only saying this now, but do you know how surprised I was then?”
“Why?”
“Why, if the laboratory turned to dust just because you said a few wrong words, how could anyone stop being surprised?”
“Ah, at that time, ehehe.”
“But what really surprised me was that you handled lightning itself. You will never know how excited I was then. I was so excited that I didn’t care even if the project I had been preparing for years turned to ashes because I knew that Indignation I Nation, the strongest martial art in the blitzkrieg that was practiced a long time ago, was manifested only from a freshman in the academy.”
“Ugh.”
“By the way, but what? Alchemy? You made a cloud of lightning with some kind of alchemy and shot it? What do you mean? Yes? Let me answer Right Now.”
“Ah. Happy…”
When I didn’t listen with the back of my ear, the professor made a face that he couldn’t stop, then suddenly said something as if he realized something.
“Come to think of it, don’t you say it’s cold today? He hung it like a habit.”
“Ah. I decided not to do it to anyone else. It has to be done only to the master.”
“… Master? What is it? When did you get that?”
“I want to see you, Master.”
“How nice it would be if you pretended to listen. Anyway, I really hate you. It’s hard to see more. If you’re done with your business, let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Let’s run away when the opportunity arises.
When the professor let me go like that,
I calmed down in an instant, as if my self-righteousness had been a lie.
However, just as I was about to say goodbye to the professor and leave the lab, like a lady from a modest adoptive family,
The professor was hesitant about something, so he said the last thing.
“Then did you get that from the owner or something?”
What the professor pointed out was a hairpin that was gently tucked in my ear through my hair.
I proudly showed off an item I had never taken from my arms since I received it as a gift from the owner.
“This one? Isn’t it pretty? Doesn’t it suit you?”
“I don’t mean that… Hmm, yes. Well it’s none of my business Really go see.”
…
…
…
Today, I was actually going to listen to the alchemy professor.
I just couldn’t feel that way.
At the moment when the effect of the drug is fully reached in accordance with the pumping of the heart,
I became shiny.
The annoyance I had from morning was nowhere to be found, the world was brighter for the first time in a while, and I felt that I really found peace of mind, and that I could afford to accept things I disliked so much.
Let’s go home now do,
The moment I closed the door to the deserted lab and exited the building,
I was pretty surprised.
“Senior.”
There was a junior with a somewhat angry expression.
Right in front of my eyes was the person who had been thinking about it since the morning, every time I thought of it, and kept drawing it in my head.
I never said where exactly at what time I was going, so how did I get here?
I was curious and immediately realized.
Ah. That’s it.
What a fantasy.
Knowing that the drug administered had a subtle but hallucinogenic property, I immediately recognized it.
Anyway, the appearance of the juniors who appeared in front of me was very cool as always.
I couldn’t help but frantically stare at my juniors, who were a head and a half taller than me, and had great muscles all over their bodies like statues.
Brilliant blonde hair like a prince, deep green eyes like the eve of the clear sky, and a school uniform with a big body are so pretty and cool, so it goes on like that without blinking even once…
The trouble for me was that the drugs didn’t make me angry at all.
Normally, I would just hate it, and I would only be jealous of my outstanding appearance, so I just wanted to bully and destroy it, but now…
… No. This, ah is it so. Because the medicine makes my heart beat so fast, it’s because of the medicine,
As if I had been running for a very long time, I quickly became hehe.
And I realized one thing.
If it’s just an illusion anyway, can’t I do whatever I want without paying attention?
I went up to the owner and gave him a hug.
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking I want to be hugged so much that I can’t move. Like last night when I did a lot of naughty things, I want to do it again. I want to do it, I want to do something dirty…
The fantasies of juniors seemed to be taken aback when I was suddenly embraced, but
I couldn’t even bother with that right now.
In a state very close to the junior, with a red flushed face from the medicine,
I want to whisper, but the junior’s ears that I can’t reach even if I lift my tiptoe are angry, so I raise his hand and pull his hair forcibly,
Carefully, in case anyone else hears,
I wanted to say it all day long, but I whispered as much as I could without the owner.
“Master, I am cold. It’s really cold…”
“…”
“Before it gets colder, I have to do something dirty quickly…”
“…”
“Yes? Quickly…”
Then, the kouhai became frightened again…
I grabbed my wrist until it hurt and headed home.
