Chapter 9 – #008 Suicide Riot in the Academy
***
A night filled with thick darkness, with even the moon almost hiding its light.
Sigh. With a sound, a figure appeared on the rooftop of the building.
A girl who looks about 19 years old.
She staggered to her feet and walked steadily towards the railing of her rooftop.
“Mom, Dad, and Philip… I’m sorry.”
The woman sobbed.
“I’m so tired I don’t think I can do this anymore.”
She sobbed, wiping the tears flowing down her face with both hands.
And then…
“Hello.”
A person jumped from the top of the building.
After a while, a dull sound echoed across the night sky.
The noise cut off the sound of grasshoppers for an instant… But that time was only a moment.
I start crying again as if I haven’t done that before.
You and I speak with one voice.
However, the tone somehow sounds a little sad, which may be because it is a requiem for someone… You never know.
***
“Hey, did you hear?”
“What?”
“Yesterday, someone in third grade committed suicide again.”
“Really? How many times is this, I don’t know…”
At the conversation of passing students, I let out a long sigh.
Princess Reina, seeing that, asks.
“Why are you doing that, Cale? Is there something you’re worried about?”
I’m worried…
A hot topic among academy students recently.
As many as five incidents occurred this month alone.
That is a suicidal commotion.
It was impossible to pinpoint why he died because he did not leave a will, but everyone, including professors and students, would have guessed it.
All of those who died were students from the common people.
“It must be because of Professor Aslan’s vacancy.”
“That’s right. Just having the professor here really helped me a lot…”
I sighed again and lifted the hearing enhancement magic.
The more I listen, the more I feel frustrated.
The only commoner professor in the academy.
A person who was appointed directly by the emperor and was even mentioned as the next dean.
In this narrow land of the nobles, by the nobles, and for the nobles, his presence seemed to have been a source of great hope and spiritual support to the small number of commoners and people from other countries who attended the academy.
‘If I think about it, most of my past actions were tied to them.’
Maybe my actions now are not much different from then.
Anyway, it seems that the students who were barely holding on as my presence disappeared could no longer bear it and began committing suicide.
‘It’s serious. It’s far exceeding my expectations.’
– Did you expect it?
‘It’s not that I couldn’t do it. However… I never thought that the students would take their own lives.’
How hard is it?
Actually, I don’t know much because I’m a professor. The inside story of the students.
I just knew that having a dark face was difficult.
When people asked for help, they helped, but…
In fact, I was so obsessed with magic that I didn’t take the initiative to solve their problem.
But to leave it like this…
‘Already five times in one month alone. The cycle is getting shorter.’
They are from commoner background.
A class that lives stubbornly somehow.
If they can’t stand it and commit suicide, there must be a culprit and crime that could cause that.
‘Should I leave it alone, or should I try to move…’
– There is a causal relationship in everything. Your choices will determine the path we will take in the future. Like the princess next to you. So be careful, kid. Don’t forget the cause and get caught up in other things.
It’s a great cause…
“Kale? Are you okay?”
“Yes?”
When I turn my head, I see a woman looking at me with concern.
She spoke with narrowed, forget-me-not eyes.
“The facial expression is not good…”
“?”
“It looks like the food I made wasn’t that good.”
“Oh, no. What Raina made was really delicious.”
Then, I put a spoonful of the fruit parfait into my mouth.
Wow… Such a salty taste in a parfait.
It’s truly touching. Revolutionary taste.
– Just say it doesn’t taste good. Then you die.
‘Well, it’s better than the food I ate on the battlefield, so I’m confident I won’t die.’
– How to catch a poop form. I’m really proud of that.
Anyway, the restless princess let out a sigh of relief at the sight of her eating a fruit parfait full of salty flavor.
It was my first time making it without anyone’s help, so I was very worried or something.
‘The first time is always difficult.’
Thanks to you, I was able to come to my senses and make a decision about what I had been worrying about.
Get up from your seat.
The princess looks up at me and holds up a parfait.
There is still 1/3 left.
“Where are you going?”
“This is a secret mission for the princess and my future.”
“W-What…! Yes, you, this guy…! Even though it’s a rooftop, he’s so shy…”
The princess blushed and blushed.
I gave her a gentle wink, touched the area where her nipples would be with my index finger, and then went down underneath her as if she was running away.
If she behaved like this to her royal family, she would be completely offended, but after she hit me three times in a row with her big breasts, she and I became closer than anyone else in the world.
Whenever we were alone with him, he always acted like this.
“You will be in the training room until 1:00 p.M., So come there if you finish work before then!”
“Yay~”
So, shall we find out the truth about why students commit suicide?
– So what do you plan to do? I think it would be quicker to grab and hit him.
‘Sister. Come to your senses. Then, my sister and I will be arrested.’
-What are you worried about? Just kidnap a decent bitch and fuck her all night long. Then, not only will I tell you everything I know, but I will also follow you around, calling you my boss.
‘You’ve seen a lot of pornographic stories.’
– Crazy. What? Isn’t it a novel?
‘Then your own experience? Are you sure your personality is M?’
– Fuck. I’m not talking.
I got upset again.
Even if I call, he doesn’t answer.
Anyway, if there is no spirit harvest, let’s use the method recommended by Perez.
For now, I approach it my way.
I walked without hesitation and headed towards where the third-graders were taking classes.
Because three of the five people who died recently were third-graders.
‘Just looking at the kids’ faces makes you angry. ‘I’m still immature and can’t hide my feelings.’
If you select the main characters and quietly follow them, you will be caught.
If it’s to the point of committing suicide, it means you’re in a pinch.
‘It has no choice but to be revealed somehow.’
And I was able to easily find two suitable targets.
Two women with their shoulders hunched inward, their faces extremely dark, and their eyes showing no signs of hope or happiness.
They were people that I remember frequently appearing in my study groups.
‘Lynn and Cecil… It was a bit dark to begin with, but it wasn’t that bad?’
What made them like that?
Let’s follow it first.
And soon I could see a group of female students calling them in and lynching them in a hidden part of the building.
‘You’re tinkering with a 3rd grade topic on a 2nd grade topic?’
I once again realize that this is a place where class is more important than strength or grade.
I approached them a little closer, minimizing my presence as much as possible.
Through my magically enhanced hearing, I can hear each and every sound of their conversation.
“Senpai, Lin? What kind of pig makes that noise? Try again.”
“Kku… Kkuul.”
Match. The woman’s head turns.
The orange-haired child who slapped his cheek said with a wry smile.
“If you don’t do it right, we’ll just take everything off and spin this building around.”
“Well, that…! Please, just that…”
“So try to do it right.”
“Honey. Honey…!”
“See. You can do it, right? Well, then Cecil is a boar in heat.”
Another woman standing in the direction imitated a boar.
Quite plausible.
“Kwiit. Kuiit…!”
“Okay. Then the two of you combine! You know how to mate, right? Hurry up and do it.”
At that command, a woman called Cecil climbed on top of Lin.
She then shook her hips and cooed.
The crowd surrounding them burst into laughter at that sight.
– When I see things like that, I get the feeling that maybe our own people are actually doing that, disguised as humans.
‘It’s crueler when a child doesn’t know what’s going on.’
– What are you going to do?
‘Well…’
I quietly gazed at the laughing and chattering crowd and the orange-haired girl standing in the middle.
And the two women who look down and cry and act like pigs.
‘It would be a good idea to let my dick sleep all night.’
***
“Rin. Have you thought about it?”
“… I’m sorry. Please give me a little more time.”
“Okay. Let me know when it’s decided.”
“Yes.”
Geoffrey stepped down.
And Rin chewed her lips as she looked at him.
***
I followed the two student victims all the time, just in case, but other than the group from before, there was no one harassing them.
Because no one else, including commoners, approached those two.
‘Oh, there was one person. I don’t know if he’s my boyfriend or what.’
Anyway. There is no reason to drag on any longer.
Move quickly for punishment.
I secretly left the academy under the cover of night.
Actually, there was a curfew for students, but it was just a formality, and the older and more aggressive kids often came and went at night, so it wasn’t difficult at all to sneak out.
I move quietly, remembering the places I saw during the day.
‘I was lucky.’
The academy’s soundproofing magic is canceled at night.
Instead, mana detection returns.
It’s for safety.
In that respect, it was very good news for me that the orange-haired child in the daytime applied for a sleepover.
Because you can perform a major ceremony easily.
– So what is the position of that brazen kid?
‘Isabelle Greyport is the daughter of Countess Greyport. He is a military power family in charge of the southern gate in the metropolitan area.
– Ohh. It must have some power, right?
‘Okay. Moreover, the family consisted of three sons and one daughter, so as I grew older, my hair became even more bald.’
– Well, today will be a bit fun. The answer to a rude bitch is to crush her with dick until she dies!
After talking about various things with Beres, we were able to arrive at Strong Hold, the town of nobles.
A place where only nobles can go, and where public security is not normal.
Well, it’s impossible for a person like me to find it if he makes up his mind and moves.
Even if the total amount of magical power has decreased, just chew it with understanding, and you can stop.
Lightly use invisibility magic and head towards the goal along a path without a mana meter.
– Is it pretty? Isn’t this a skill you’ve tried once or twice?
‘Because I was in the battlefield for a long time. In particular, I was wandering around the magical ruins in the metropolitan area, and they told me they would never let me in because I was a commoner, so I would often sneak in like this.’
– This is my first time seeing someone as crazy about magic as you. Even Carlos from a thousand years ago would not have been as good as you.
After passing through the main road without hesitation, we finally arrived at the destination.
A huge wall and a building towering even higher come into view.
– Is it possible?
‘Hmm. It won’t be easy… There are patrols and alarms everywhere.’
– You sound weak. I am disappointed, Jeremiah Aslan.
‘Well, it’s not impossible to enter, but…’
At that time, I suddenly began to hear a presence along with the sound of words.
And after a while, the gate opens wide.
– What, at this hour? The target is going outside?
‘Why not go meet your lover?’
Whatever the reason, it was an opportunity for me.
He quietly climbs onto the carriage that has come out onto the main street and hangs on.
The carriage moved on without stopping.
I ran for a while. He suddenly turned to one side and entered a forest, and when I saw that, I was convinced.
Now this young lady is heading to the villa to spend a special night.
– A villa?
‘Okay. Here, behind the capital’s noble street, there is a large forest and villas… Nobles are bitches who value face. You can’t meet me in broad daylight, right? So, it’s called using a trick.’
– How?
‘Pretend to spend the night alone at the villa, each of you brings a carriage and then meet in secret. Just the two of us. ‘I took advantage of the darkness.’
– Oh my?
And indeed.
Isabel got out of the carriage and sent her coachman away.
The energy felt in the villa was from just the two of them, but she walked to one side without even saying a word to the people she trusted the most.
I guess I walked like that for about twenty minutes.
A man caught my eye in the darkness.
He is quite a handsome man with blond hair.
“Christian!”
Christian?
Could it be Christian Swan?
– Who is it?
‘There is. The greatest playboy in the empire.’
Even if we leave this alone, it could be revenge…
However, Perez’s thoughts seem to be completely different.
– Hey, then you should kick that bastard.
‘Why?’
– Aren’t you a person who stands in the way of your cause? If you leave it alone, it will sow seeds here and there, right?
Reel? That’s what I heard.
‘As expected, sister! As a young person, I can learn a lot.’
– Huh.
Perez let out a pleasant voice.
Surprisingly, there is a childlike aspect to it. I can’t believe you love compliments so much.
Anyway, I quietly followed the two moving men and women.
They entered a villa, and there was only one employee.
Even that is a bit much, so leave the building.
‘This is a complete crime.’
– Then let’s go right away. Damn you bitches!
