Chapter 20 – #019 Check

***

A principal in the academy.

There are two students on the podium who are having a conversation regardless of whether the professor is lecturing or not.

“Hey, we’re going to do practical magic next time, right?”

“Uh. But will you be able to succeed this time? Last time, you only succeeded once in the entire class. Hehe.”

“Fuck. Don’t worry. I called a tutor and practiced really hard.”

Then, people around them joined in one by one and started talking noisily without realizing it was class time.

A professor who is worse than me gives me a warning…

Nevertheless, Aria, who was a professor of alchemy, sighed as she saw the children calming down the commotion for a moment but soon becoming noisy again.

‘I guess I need to do something about this.’

***

After the demonstration and practice, the enthusiasm of the students taking the practical magic class increased day by day.

And the rumor about him quickly spread and even attracted the attention of other grades… Was that why?

One day, students started coming to audit classes.

Most of them were in 4th or 5th grade.

Of course, there were people from other grades who came to see it due to word of mouth and popularity, but I thought the main reason was that many students from the 4th grade onwards went on to practice outside the school.

‘Actually, there is a problem.’

Considering the purpose of the subject, this subject should be placed after the 4th grade.

And that too in the long term, not the short term.

However, the reason he was placed meaninglessly in the first class of the first year for only 6 months was probably because Aslan was a commoner wizard.

‘Slowly, pressure from professors will come in.’

Still, even though he is a royal family in name and appearance, nothing special has happened so far, but the second prince is currently holding sway over this academy.

Even the other faculty members are on someone else’s side.

He will definitely move to do dirty things.

– Then just stick to the other side. Why go through the trouble of buying it?

‘As I said before, even if you go to the second prince, you will end up as a meat shield. She deserves to be left dirty and thrown away. However, if you go the other way, it is actually more dangerous. Because the 2nd prince’s gang won’t stay still.’

– Ohh. So rather than choosing where to go, I’d rather stay neutral under the princess for now, that’s it?

‘Okay. Since I am a teaching assistant, there is no need to be suspicious. Above all, the princess’ breasts are addictive, aren’t they?’

– Pervert cub. Tell the truth. The first reason is just justification and the second is true, right?

‘Well, that’s fine. Kukkuk.’

I dealt with the children(?) And looked at Princess Reina.

I am enjoying my life as a professor with a happy face, without knowing where and what kind of secret struggle might arise.

‘Sometimes I really envy that kind of personality.’

– You have no idea?

‘Uh.’

In that respect, Princess Reina was a person who did not fit in with the royal family.

If she had been born as a noblewoman, she would have lived a happy life.

At that time, an auditor asked a question to the princess.

The question seemed a bit difficult, so the princess took out her canteen and drank some water.
It is a preset signal, meaning to ask for help.

“The princess!!”

“Why are you doing that?”

“This must be a defective magic stone! I’m suddenly getting hot?!”

The princess jumps in, saying it’s right.

I was already an expert at playing with the magic gemstone, and after calming it down several times under my instructions, she was able to skillfully calm the magic gemstone’s explosion.

Phew… The princess wipes the sweat from her forehead.
Even if you’ve tried it a lot, it’s true that it’s dangerous.

When a magic stone explodes, the aftermath is significant.

It is 5 times the killing range of most fireballs.

For that reason, the surrounding students had already run away, and I was able to ask the princess in a low voice.

“What was the question?”

“The question was what to do if lightning magic comes at you the moment you spot an enemy.”

“There is no way to do that. Unless you have at least cast a text spell, shield magic is the most common for wizards. Instead, there is a way to block attacks that come in succession.”

Lightning magic is fast.

So much so that it is difficult to even respond.

There is even a rather annoying status effect that causes paralysis immediately upon being hit.

But the real problem is what follows.

The body becomes stiff due to paralysis, making it difficult to move.

In other words, the subsequent hits must also be hit in the same way.

“After deploying the shield, I immediately form a water screen between the enemy and me. If the terrain is dirt, building a wall might be an option.”

The princess said she would understand and returned to the podium.
And the explanation, the auditor nods as if he understood.

But…

– Is it because of my mood? Are you getting a lot of difficult questions today?

‘It’s not my mood. I’m just asking some difficult questions.’

I’m coming.

A check from other professors.

“Reina, thank you for your hard work.”

“Thank you. Why are there so many difficult questions today?”

I handed her one of her handkerchiefs.
I take it and pat the sweat beads off my forehead.

“The princess.”

“Why are you doing that?”

“I think you should start special training starting today.”

“Special training? When it comes to magic training, aren’t we already doing it with you every day?”

That’s right.

While drastically changing her practical magic lessons, the princess was training hard under my guidance.
There is nothing more embarrassing than making a mistake because the person teaching magic is unable to respond.

Fortunately, she had talent,

By the time the children had learned one thing, she was barely able to prepare for the next one.
But the problem is the audit students.

“It seems that other professors are dissatisfied with the popularity of the princess’s classes.”

Then, let me explain my thoughts… The princess answers with a sparkle in her eyes.

“It’s okay to do such a petty thing. Kale, train me harshly starting today.”

“Good posture, Raina.”

So, I ended up teaching the princess one by one the practical knowledge I had gained by risking my life on the battlefield for 30 years.

– Learning so much and not having any doubts… That’s really amazing, cow.

‘That’s right.’

If someone younger than him had that much knowledge, he might be suspicious, but he didn’t show any signs of that.

I have no choice but to admit this.

As Perez said, the hypothesis is that nutrients destined for the head went to the chest…

– At this level, he is almost your disciple. Now that I think about it, do you have any formal disciples?

‘No.’

-What did you do when you weren’t making it? If we don’t produce future generations, we should have at least trained them.

‘I tried. But they all died on the battlefield.’

I remember each one of them.

The name and the face.

I met my teacher on the battlefield and learned magic without any conditions. To repay the favor, I generously taught magic to those who wanted it.

Because I thought that was a way to repay the favor I received.

However, the battlefield is a place where 7-8 out of 10 people die.

Those I taught also could not escape that bondage.

– So you’re actually the only disciple?

‘Is that so?’

-Teach me well. You may not know it, but the cow could reach the toes of that unlucky Carlos.

‘That’s right.’

Raise your head.

I see a woman concentrating on me with sweat pouring all over her body.

“Then shall we go one more time?”

“So be it!”

‘Firewall.’

***

“The princess’s popularity is soaring day by day, so I hope…”

At the man’s words, the woman on her side nodded her head and expressed concern.

“If this continues, we will lose our position and talent here. Dean, we need to find a way.”

After hearing several people’s comments, the academy’s dean, Feller Mill, raised his hand.
She then looked around the audience and said.

“Let’s leave it alone for now.”

“Do you plan to leave it like this?”

“Hmm… No. Now that I think about it, I think it would be better to stoke the fire even more.”

People looked like they didn’t understand.

At that sight, the old man, the oldest and strongest in the Academy, clicked his tongue.

“As for the heads… Anyway, let’s each spread the rumor further. The princess’s skills and the classes she teaches are outstanding.”

“How long?”

“There. Until it reaches the ears of the Most High in the imperial palace.”

***

Its popularity grew day by day.

I heard that this story sometimes comes up even at adult social gatherings.

Some female students even came to visit the princess and express their affection for her.

‘It’s nice that the princess is doing well, but she’s a little uneasy about something.’

– Is this the feeling of an old man?

‘In terms of age, isn’t your sister 20 times older than me?’

– Fuck. They hit me hard for telling a joke.

I listened to Perez’s grumbling words with one ear and moved his left hand while letting them go through the other.
I can feel the soft texture in my hand.

“Tsk. Tsk. Sis, why don’t you just focus on the meal when eating…”

“You don’t want me hanging around?”

“That’s not true…”

Put a grape in your mouth.

And then he handed it to the princess.

“Ho, I can eat by myself.”

But instead of answering, I showed a grape between my lips.

The princess blushes and opens her mouth.
And then the side. Her lips naturally collided, and the grapes fell towards the princess in her mouth.

“Is it delicious?”

“Yes, so it is.”

I’m quite honest now.

If he said he didn’t know, I told him to keep adding until he found out.

“By the way, it’s the school’s opening anniversary soon.”

“That’s right. It should pass without any major problems…”

“Will His Majesty the Emperor come too?”

“I guess that’s the case. The Academy is a core institution of the empire.”

The opening anniversary of the Imperial Academy.

Literally a thousand years ago, it was the day Carlos Le Perner founded the school and began its functioning.

Usually, the event is held two days before or after that day, that is, for five days, and during that period, anyone can enter the academy without conditions.

– What are you doing for 5 days?

‘Just think of it as a festival.’

– Oh, is it similar to the day when people get excited about birthdays and all?

‘… Well, it’s similar.’

I take a quick look at the princess.

A hint of worry appears on her face.

“Are you worried about anything?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

If you’re going to lie, at least hide your face.

Even though he was a royal family, he learned how to manage his facial expressions, but in my opinion, he was still lacking.

“The princess.”

“Why are you doing that?”

“I can see everything. You know you can’t fool the people you love, right?”

“You’re perfect at saying embarrassing things…”

The princess put down her spoon.

And then he lets out a long sigh.

What are you worried about that makes you react like this?

“I just… I hope I can show my father a good side this time. Since I’ve always shown him a disappointing side…”

“Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.”

I put my hand on the princess’s hair and ruffled it.
She smiled shyly and answered.

“Thank you.”

Then the meal started again.

I massage the princess’s breasts and think quietly.

‘It’s the school’s founding anniversary… So I guess I’ll do that too.’

Choosing three popular departments from all departments and presenting them in front of people.

If she is selected there and does well, the princess’s ransom will probably increase dozens of times from what it is now.

‘Then where should I show off my skills?’
