Avoid Former Co-Workers

37 – 37. Seniors and Juniors (3)

Why did Professor Meuniher accept that?

‘Dalian will solve the question of early semester evaluation…’

I thought it was strange because I had that kind of personality, but I didn’t understand why I had to take the class assignment test again.

Unlike in the past, this time I couldn’t even catch a decent piece of cake.

“Senior!”

Rhenias with horns came running towards Junon instead of his usual quick steps.

“Junon-senpai, aren’t you angry? Why were you just watching here? Senior’s grades just evaporated!”

It wasn’t just horns, they were very horny.

As Junon’s end-of-semester evaluation partner, he had watched from the sidelines, so the result of the re-exam was all the more unreasonable from the standpoint of Rhenias.

However, the person concerned.

“Because it doesn’t change that much just because I’m out.”

He was showing a calm reaction as if it didn’t matter.

Renias responded by chewing on my lower lip.

“It’s strange… It’s strange! Why are you accepting a situation where even your efforts aren’t recognized, senior?”

It’s not the usual smiling and friendly face.

It was a look of anger soaring to the tip of the head at the injustice that the partner’s actions, which should be recognized and respected, disappear intact.

“I don’t know why you’re so indifferent. It’s strange that I’m upset like this…”

“…”

“I’m upset. Really. Why do you have to listen to me like that…?”

After adding a few words like that, Rhenias soon showed tears and sobbed, holding Junon’s hands tightly.

Even though Junon is the person who should be most unfair, he has already become insensitive because he is already caught in his nose, but the viewer is not.

If Rhenias were in that position, he would definitely protest.

So she deliberately held onto Junon’s hand and wouldn’t let go. As if she wants to answer.

“Renias.”

“Yes.”

“It’s not that you’re weird. This academy is that wrong. Would I have liked this situation? I couldn’t have.”

“Then why…Why didn’t you protest?”

Rhenias said that she would rather reply that the senior in front of her is because she is confident in Dalian.

No, at least she didn’t want to be intimidated by a plausible excuse.

But.

“It really doesn’t change with me alone.”

Unfortunately, the answer that came back to Renias was one that made her squeeze her heart even tighter.

So, Rhenias couldn’t speak and let out a drool of her grief.

If only I knew a little bit sooner.

“But I mean.”

At the same time as she said that, just as her tears were about to fall, a rough finger approached her, wiped her eyes, and snatched the water droplets from flowing down.

“Wouldn’t Professor Meuniher have been in trouble if he had stepped out of here?”

“…?”

He didn’t say why, but Rhenias’ eyes asked why.

“Think about what kind of people they have been protecting and enjoying such benefits.”

The academy has not revealed its darkness for a long time.

Despite the violation of school rules, there are scenes of bullying and discrimination taking place everywhere.

If all these contradictions are to be allowed to progress, they must be willfully left unattended.

It doesn’t take long for the answer to come out.

“Couldn’t it be…Because the professors used their hands…?”

“That’s right. That’s why professors who were said to have committed corruption were kicked out en masse.”

However, one question remained unanswered.

“Aren’t the professors who were expelled replaced by those recruited from the Empire?”

“I understand well. You’re asking if it’s not resolved now that the imperials have taken their place in the academy’s administration and personnel rights, right?”

Rhenias nodded once as if he had correctly answered the question.

“Grade confirmation can be done individually. But, is there a school rule that allows such group demonstrations?”

“Those rules are…”

“No. As you said, it only makes sense if they don’t come to Professor Meuniher.”

The school rules at the academy are pretty strict, and if you break the rules and get too many points, you get a penalty that’s no different than an insult.

The right to use school facilities that anyone can use is deprived, and students cannot apply for lectures they want to listen to, which is the biggest damage to students.

Therefore, of course, there should be no students who want to break the school rules, but they didn’t seem to care about that.

“Then… I hope this too…”

“It’s just what they want. It’s still a long way off. The professors who are making rust at the academy.”

It is true that the positions of expelled professors, such as corruption, are held tightly by those recruited from the Artena Empire.

Typically, Professor Nubbel, who just requested a retest in front of Professor Meuniher.

He encouraged certain students with words as if denying the evaluation at the beginning of the semester.

As expected, isn’t it connected to the answer I just came up with?

“The moment I move, there’s a high chance that I’ll hold back Professor Meuniher, who has grown the business by force. That’s how those guys have kept the academy’s secrets.”

It’s not about having fun by harassing the weak.

In other words, there was always a secondary gain while harassing or persecuting the weak.

Even if you refute with a just theory just because you’re forced, you must have power to be eaten by them.

Since there are so many stones deeply embedded in the academy, a majority vote would never have worked.

A temporary protest may work, but since you don’t know how great their power is, it’s perfectly right to keep that in mind.

‘Awesome…’

What would you do if you made a name for yourself on the battlefield?

What’s the point of receiving countless compliments?

Anyway, he was more like an outsider with a dark eye on the academy’s internal circumstances.

Renias realized that he couldn’t even judge the situation that was happening right in front of his eyes.

Sticking out her tongue at the view Junon saw through.

“Still, I’m grateful that you were upset because you worried about me.”

While doing so, he stroked her hair with one hand.

Thanks to that, the heart of Rhenias, who was upset and angry, softened.

“More than that, did you catch Rhenias this time?”

“Yes?”

Catch? What?

Rhenias couldn’t understand when he suddenly talked about catching floating clouds.

Junon slowly moved his gaze downward, just like Rhenias did, and there were Rhenias’ two hands holding Junon’s hands tightly.

Suddenly, the strength escaped from Rinias’ hands, and he scratched his silver hair as if embarrassed.

“Ahahahaha… Sorry…”

With this, Junon, who is called Teacher Teacher.

Rhenias’s lips pouted and asked if he still remembered that.

Recalling what happened at the first meeting, the seniors and juniors do not take this as a problem and move on.

“I tried to tell you that the map should be postponed, but were you considering this as well?”

Professor Meuniher, who overheard the conversation between Junon and Renias in a corner, smiles softly.

“And, it looks like there’s a bit of a commotion over there.”

– Bang! Kwakwang!

That was the sound of a girl named Sylvia, who owed money on her final exam, violating her school rules and punishing some students.

Since he has the title of professor, originally, it would be better to break it up, but this time, even if he makes a fuss, he will just let it go.

‘A good friend. Or, is it because of him?’

After nodding his head several times, Professor Meuni Herr leaves with a satisfied face.

“You always exceed my expectations anyway, so I need to be prepared for that too.”

Thousands of students sought Meuniher, but all of them were brief teachings, and he had no official disciples because he was so keen.

But one person made Professor Meuniher’s mouth move.

The mouth of an eccentric and strict man who has never been able to satisfy anyone.

“Ugh…!”

Meanwhile, on one side of the training room, Charlotte is trying hard to suppress her mana, biting her lips.

Her swirling magic powers rotate faster in Charlotte’s body, increasing her circulation speed.

As a result, her unprocessed, dark blue, dark, turbid magi slowly escapes, heating up her Charlotte’s circuitry, causing her pain.

“Black! It hurts…!”

She’s Charlotte moaning in pain, but this big instructor just can’t get over it.

“Hold on a little longer. Are you ready for this?”

“Oops, no, yo!”

“Yes. I’m doing well. I’m going to work hard and go until the muddy mana is about to show its bottom line. Until I feel like not even a drop of mana is flowing through my heart. Squeeze it to the limit!”

To overcome the constitution rooted in runaway mana.

Charlotte is trained by Goden in a spartan way, and early on she spent time controlling her magical powers.

“Michelle, what are you up to these days?”

“Huh? Oh, no. Nothing special.”

When Senia asks Michelle who stared blankly at her, she finally seems to come to her senses.

“I don’t think so. Don’t you know you have to be honest when you’re on a boat?”

“It’s just that the orphanage isn’t going well.”

“Hmm, is that so?”

In fact, with the help of Charlotte, the funds that were lacking can afford to some extent.

She was officially recognized by the academy for her unique magic blooming and was able to deal with witch beasts alone, so at least she couldn’t be caught by the aristocratic union any more when it came to money.

Thus, it was not the orphanage that drew Michelle’s attention right away, but one person.

‘Again… Is that you?’

It was he who was found bloodied by Charlotte who pounced on her recklessness.

In a series of incidents that occurred during the evaluation at the beginning of the semester, the male student who became the center of an incident that only a few people know about.

The person who sprinkled Mystellis in the underground canals as if he knew that Giant Kud Rats would appear.

Junon.

All the second hand of Michelle’s doubts were pointed at only one person.

Then I look around.

Goden sticks to Charlotte and teaches her how to suppress magic, and Erika heals the minor wounds that occur next to her.

Senia, who looks indifferent but doesn’t know her true intentions, and Charlotte, who faces the ordeal of herself in order not to hurt anyone anymore.

I couldn’t even fill the minimum number to form a team, let alone a party.

“Looks like there’s an empty seat?”

I wonder if Senia had the same idea, she had led the conversation with Michelle first.

“Since Goden is there, the front line is practically solidified with me, Erica is the buffer, and the support line is virtually irrelevant given the firepower of you and Charlotte. By the way, don’t you think there is no most important position?”

“That’s right…”

Michelle couldn’t deny Senia’s words.

A person who will be in charge of changing air defenses and responding flexibly in unexpected situations. In other words, the position, the center, for the person most skilled in strategy and tactics.

Even if you don’t have it, it’s also a position that you don’t need if each party member has the skills and insight to report all situations.

As a result of the mock battle, the response was still ambiguous, which could have led to an accident if it had been a real battle.

Therefore, there is currently no one in the Thambris party to take charge of the center.

‘It would be perfect if he took over.’

As if I foresaw it, I prepared the purification agent.

Bold judgment to send Noel and John in an unexpected situation where Charlotte ran out of control.

Hidden aspect of succeeding in overpowering Charlotte, the only breakthrough in an atrocious situation.

As a result, he became the only slanderer in the early semester evaluation, but in fact, Junon’s choice was the best.

Michelle thought that the person who fit the center position of the empty party somehow matched the Junon she had just thought of.

-‘Instead, I hope you don’t have anything to do with me in the future.’

‘But… I need to talk to you.’

The words he said while handing over the money were taken, but he was a pity to let go like this.

***

Tick tock-

The hands of the temple’s clock turn once again.

“I just went back again!”

“Spacing equals twice the previous value, and direction is the same reversed. But…”

“How should Genji interpret this mysterious oracle…”

All that could be known was that it went in the opposite direction at regular intervals.

I couldn’t even get a clue what this watch meant even though I brought all the high priests and wise men of the Kemfreton continent.

And.

【 I will turn the second and third hands of the clock. 】

【To those of you who have committed the sin of disbelief and hatred. Let the karma of the past go down. 】

【 Remember. What results have the knives you wielded have produced? 】

As in the time of Charlotte, a short past was reflected on some two people.
