Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me

50 – Magic Engineering Class (2)

‘Ah, this alone isn’t enough.’

I wondered if Professor Ma might be the snitch, but I shook his head and dismissed the hypothesis.

Certainly, it was nasty to have Justina do that, but there was little evidence to convince her that she was an insider to the last king of Delin.

There are not one or two bad professors in the world…….

‘I must never be a graduate student.’

I swallowed salivating at the thought of Justina, who recommended going to graduate school even after graduating, and even thought of taking over her professorship.

If a person like the Mathematics Professor is assigned as the professor in charge, he will have to escape the academy even if he has to go on a journey to find the Flower of Resurrection.

‘Let’s just have the idea that we don’t know.’

I sat down in a simple chair and watched the magic math professor being treated by the healer.

In the meantime, the first thing I noticed was the wound on the professor’s leg, assuming it was an occupational disease.

‘That… ….’

It wasn’t just a wound caused by a bump.

It wasn’t even a wound caused by a weapon such as a knife or spear.

Looking at the rough and violently torn skin, it didn’t look like it was stabbed or cut by sharp metal.

Rather, that’s what happens when you get hit by an animal’s teeth or claws.

‘Beast… Oh, is it a witch beast?’

Thoughts continued one after another.

Because he’s a magic mathematics professor, he might have accidentally got hurt while managing or researching the monsters in the mountain behind him.

But rather than feeling sorry, I wanted to tell you that I am lucky.

It must have been luck for the professor that he was injured by the Witchbeast, but not a single arm or leg was blown off, and only suffered a wound of that size.

‘The mouth was brushed like that.’

But deep inside I also thought it was a little funny.

That’s also true, because during class, the mathematician professor took all kinds of forms and arrogantly praised himself.

He can deal with dozens of beasts by himself, and he has already tamed all the beasts in the back mountain, so if he wants to, he can do something like a maestro….

To think that a nobleman who acted so proudly was hurt by a witch who raised him properly must have damaged his pride quite a lot.

“Ah, ah ah…… !”

“Oh, a grown man makes a fuss. It’s all over, so hold on!”

“Sorry, sorry… ha ha ha… Live a little though… Ewww?!”

“Is it over?!”

Anyway, looking at it up close, something was strange.

What should I say? The magic math professor I usually see in class and the man in front of me now have a distinctly different impression.

If the character of the Mathematics Professor was usually arrogant and strict, the man in front of him had a somewhat friendly and kind atmosphere.

It was to the point where he felt like a different person even though he looked the same.

“Okay, I’m done. You can go now. Next patient!”

“Are you sure it’s over? Doesn’t the wound heal? It seems that the pain is still there…….”

“Oh, why is this gentleman, the professor, making such a big fuss?”

“Well, if I get sick tomorrow too, it will be troublesome. Originally, I expected my class to be canceled, so I thought it was over, but suddenly new students came in….”

“Huh, what subject did you say professor?”

“Ah, I am in charge of Magic Engineering. To be exact, I only teach 1st grade. Lol.”

Professor of Magic Engineering?

I opened my eyes wide at the unexpected development.

Your facial features look the same as that of a Mathematics Professor, but what happened to Mathematics and not Mathematics?

“No, not a magic math professor, but a magic engineering professor?”

“Uh, uh uh, by the way. Who are you by any chance?”

I felt the stamina that had been lost in my body because of curiosity come back.

I took a step forward and first introduced who I was.

“My name is Deneb Lehnar, Year 1. I am also taking a lecture on Mathematics, and this time I applied for a lecture on Mathematics.”

“Oh, oh oh! No, that’s right! Seems to have seen I have a memory. One of the new students in the engineering lecture must be…….”

“Yes, but by any chance… ….”

The man straightened his stooped shoulders.

“Yes, yes. I am Winston Gehel. It’s embarrassing, but he’s a professor in charge of the first year magic engineering lecture. It’s really, really nice to meet you.”

“Hello.”

I grabbed Professor Winston’s outstretched hand and shook it.

The Mathematics Professor is Winston Gehel, while the Mathematics Professor’s name is, as far as I know, Alexei Gehel.

Since they have the same last name, they must be family.

However, even though they were family members, it was virtually impossible for them to resemble each other, so I knew right away what had happened.

“I-over there.”

“Yes?”

“Uh, don’t you need to get treatment right away? So I’m not saying there’s more, but I have something to ask… Well, it’s a bit like asking a student who came for treatment suddenly about something personal, but…….”

I looked over Professor Winston.

As soon as my eyes met, the healer shrugged her shoulders.

I could recognize at a glance that the gesture contained the meaning of ending the conversation quickly and coming, no matter what, since you don’t have to come right away.

“Yes, ask. I just had something I wanted to ask.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha! I’m glad! So, the student first…….”

“No, the professor has to ask first.”

“Is that so? Well, yes. I guess wait for a sec… ….”

Professor Winston suddenly pulled his notebook out of his pocket.

I flipped through a few pages in an instant, I don’t know what it was, but I looked at the contents written in the notebook and me alternately.

Did you do a detailed investigation for each student in your class?

I waited a long time before I was able to receive that question.

“Hey, how did you come to apply for the magic engineering class?”

“Hmm, is that the reason?”

“Yes, it is. To be honest, the magic engineering class isn’t that major. I-I’m ashamed to say this, but I was almost on the verge of closing my class… Of course, I’m not blaming the magic engineering course, and there may be my lack of skills, but… What am I talking about.”

Anyway, Professor Winston’s self-esteem seemed to be quite low.

Would it be so if the ambitiously prepared class ended up on the verge of being canceled?

A few students, including myself, came in and did CPR, but it must be true that I felt a lot of pressure.

I didn’t bother to add or add anything, I answered plainly.

“I’ve been interested in magic engineering lately. It was still during the course correction period, so I was looking for this and that, and I picked it because it looked good.”

“Eh, interested in magic engineering~! Good, that’s good Well, the burden is growing. I must work harder…….”

After that, the conversation continued using the assassin’s elegant speech skills.

Professor Winston, who had stuttered and seemed lacking in confidence from the start of the conversation, gradually regained his energy as they talked.

Even the healer listened to the story with her ears pricked up.

How many minutes had passed like that?

“Ha ha, ha ha ha ha! Deneb, come to think of it, didn’t you say you wanted to ask me something earlier? When are you going to ask?”

“Oh, I see. I forgot.”

Professor Winston seemed completely open to me.

With this, it seemed like I could ask two questions instead of just one.

For the first question prepared in advance, it was obvious that Professor Winston would be able to answer it without hesitation, but the second question was a bit ambiguous.

“Are you familiar with the Mathematics Professor?”

“Ah, Mathematics Professor. Alexei Gehel, he is my older brother.”

“Aha, of course.”

Professor Winston readily answered this question as if he were used to it.

“They are twins.”

“Twins…… ?”

“Yes, just by looking at it, it looks exactly the same. Still, my brother always walks confidently in fancy clothes, but I walk hunched over in a mat, so if you put them side by side, you’ll be able to recognize them right away.”

“That was it. I would have thought there would be twin brothers among the professors.”

I nodded slowly, and Professor Winston sighed.

“This is a question I hear often. Unlike me, my older brother is in charge of teaching the popular Mathematics class. The students who were scolded by my older brother were afraid of me as well.”

“hahahahaha, that kind of misunderstanding can happen.”

“I wouldn’t have such a misunderstanding if I were a popular professor… Whoa.”

In the end, the magic math professor and the magic engineering professor were different people.

From the beginning, the atmosphere was so different that I expected it to be twins, but… It really was.

Twin brothers are both working as professors at the same school.

Even considering that this is Denbergen, which is said to be the best academy in the empire, I thought that my parents would be very proud.

“By the way, professor, maybe… ….”

“Huh? Anything else to ask? Class content? Are you wondering what to do tomorrow? Ask anything! Because I can answer anything.”

“Ha ha ha, no. It’s not like that. I’m just asking out of curiosity.”

I pointed to the spot where the wound had been on Winston’s leg a while ago and looked at him.

With the eyes of a child with no doubts and pure curiosity.

“How did that wound come about?”

“…… Oh, that wound?”

Instead of telling me to ask anything because I’ll answer, Winston suddenly stopped talking and looked at me with quivering eyes.

I felt that those eyes were carefully choosing the words to say.

In this situation itself, I could read a clear sense of incongruity.

‘It’s strange.’

There was a strange discrepancy.

Until now, I was convinced that the wound was caused by a beast or witch beast, and since the man was a witch math professor, I thought there was nothing strange about it.

However, it was definitely strange that the magic engineering professor had scars left by the beast’s teeth or claws.

I don’t think there’s any reason for a magic engineering professor to stop by the back mountain full of monsters.

Why, why, what for.

To that question, the magic engineering professor, Winston, answered concisely.

“Ah~ This one fell over and tore. hahahahaha, you have to look ahead and walk around. This thesis is very interesting…….”

False.

100% Pure lie.

I don’t know why, but Winston lied.

Anyone could tell that it was a wound from a beast or beast, but it was said that it was torn by a fall.

The healer beyond Winston didn’t try to show it, but he was furrowing his brow involuntarily.

She knows. Because she couldn’t have recognized the identity of the wound as much as the healer.

‘…… Something doesn’t look good.’

I felt an unpleasant sensation, like a toxic poison gas with a faint smell was puffing up from my ankles.

However, it is a strange situation to dig deeper and argue.

I had no choice but to let Winston go.

“Well then, see you in class tomorrow!”

“Yes. Professor… Cool!”

“Uh, uh?! Are you okay? Help him!”

At that moment, my head was spinning and my body was unbalanced and staggered.

…… Ah, come to think of it, I was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion.

“Hey! So I told you to finish the conversation soon! Anyway, how hard do professors push kids these days? Aren’t you supposed to take care of a child who’s already in bad shape…….”

As expected, I was helpless under the nagging bombardment of the healer lady, unable to resist and forced to continue receiving her healing magic.
