Chapter 312 – PayPay…(4)

She clearly remembers going to the chairman’s office with Lee Ona’s guide.

Without even seeking help from Iona, as she wanders around her academy as she remembers back then, her vision changes shortly after.

As soon as I arrived at a place where people were rare, I was transferred to that deep underground, where my body was.

The same bleak atmosphere as before. That’s why even the water tank in the middle feels a bit out of the blue.

I saw it last time, and it is the scenery as I know it, but now it feels different.

Maybe it was because I felt a sense of incongruity in space movement that I had never felt before thanks to my increased sensitivity to mana.

It could be because he vaguely sensed the dozens of layers of magic surrounding this small space.

But what is certain is that Rebecca, the owner of this room, is still friendly with me.

– You’re here.

“Ah yes. What you borrowed must be returned. And since he is the one who helped me this time, I have to tell you what happened.”

– That’s a very special attitude. I already know the approximate circumstances, but hearing from the person concerned will be different.

A strange voice that cannot be guessed of gender or age, as if there was a lot of noise.

I laughed lightly at this and took out Rebecca’s staff.

“It was all possible with the help of the chairman.”

-Oh. I can’t help but think that the hero who saved Solaris from the brink of fall and uncovered the faceless man disguised as the Imperial moon would think so highly of me.

“… It’s a bit embarrassing to hear that from the chairman, who is one of the most famous and powerful heroes.”

As Rebecca scratched the back of her head and held out her staff, Rebecca naturally retrieved it with telekinesis as if she was picking it up with her hand.

– It was a joke. I think I’m a little excited because there’s no one who has a major like this against a cult these days.

“Now is the start, so what?”

-Are the cultists trying to mobilize again?

“You guessed it. Yes. At least I think so.”

– It’s okay. Now, seeing that the academy is openly introducing assassins, it means that there is no choice between fire and water.

I think you got the answer before I even asked. I tilted my head, feeling a little bewildered.

“Could it be that the person who caught the fools around Fei’s studio was the chairman?”

-I think Iona told me. You’re right. As I said earlier, I heard a few things. I was looking closely at your lover, Miss Fei… What exactly does it take?

“Thank you.”

As I lowered my head, the laughter grew louder.

-What. Since you are my students, it is a natural duty.

“Ugh… If they’re still alive, would it be all right for me to take a look at them?”

– Mmm. I kept my breath, but not seeing it would be good for my mental health, right?

“…”

I don’t know how you interrogated me, but I think you did it right. Then you won’t have to worry anymore.

-Are you going to tell me what the hell happened? Apparently, in just a few days, things have changed drastically, as if they had attained enlightenment… Being an educator myself, I was curious.

“I’m just letting you know, it doesn’t matter. However, it will be a bit difficult to apply my case to the academy curriculum.”

Rumors about Yonginhwa are spreading anyway, so there’s no need to hide it. More than anything else, Rebecca was one of the people who once roamed the battlefield with Fafnir.

Awesome

The sound of something being broken and being put back together again.

He smiled at Rebecca with eyes that probably would have split vertically by now.

“Do you remember Fafnir?”

***

This and that, and that, and that, and the platypus, and the platypus.

-Indeed… That Fafnir…

Rebecca nodded her head as if she understood. She looked at her horns and continued her words.

-Dragon’s horns are so hard that there is a saying that they will never break unless you break them. It must have been a fierce battle to the point that such horns were broken.

“Ahaha… Anyway, I won, so it’s okay.”

I can’t say that it was ever used as a material for a giant golem master key.

“Come to think of it, did the chairman have experience fighting with Fafnir? Can you tell us what Fafnir felt like before he was alive?”

– It’s not difficult. You were not born in an ordinary way, but the fact that you are Fafnir’s heir has not changed, so you can do whatever you want.

“Oh oh…”

I also felt it during Iris and Iona, and it was fun to hear old stories from old people.

Maybe it’s because it’s a prequel story that didn’t appear on H&A.

-First of all, to briefly describe Fafnir’s first impression, he was an asshole.

“… Yes?”

-This. The words were too harsh. Therefore… It was an inability to speak.

“?”

Isn’t it there?

Rebecca unraveled some rumors at my foolishly blinking eyes.

He disappeared as rare because someone broke into his treasury, and came back injured the day before an important battle.

The priests will set up a barrier, so if you tell them to shoot their breath from a distance, the dragon’s pride will come crashing down, and then it will be rescued right before it is killed by several apostles of evil spirits.

Most of the allied forces are short-lived species, but on a fictional day, comments that ignore short-lived species cause cracks in the alliance.

“… Do you think you are just a strong bastard?”

– Whoops. This is a first impression anyway. Because the battle continued and the longer we spent together, Fafnir changed.

He opened his own treasure chest, armed his knights with powerful artifacts, and distributed magic books to wizards.

When it seemed that the wall would collapse, he endured by being beaten with his own body instead. Thanks to that, the hard dragon scale was always messed up.

After Dan Myeongjong said something, he took the lead in fighting, saying that he was fulfilling his duties as a transcendental servant.

-Even in the last battle, he said that he would take care of this place, so go ahead and face cultists and hordes of monsters alone. Thanks to this, he was able to fight the Almighty Reign without any hindrance.

“…”

-To sum up. Fafnir was a bastard, but… Still, he was our dog.

There were still mosaic-processed figures floating around in the tank, so I couldn’t recognize anything.

-Okay. Fafnir also prepared for the future in its own way. How much more so that his successor is attending my academy like this. It’s really something to live for a long time to see.

For some reason, I thought Rebecca was laughing.

After that, they talked about the academy’s defense against the impending attack of the cultists, and then sneaked up to the main topic.

“I’m just saying this because I think cultists will start targeting me in earnest. I’m worried about the group I left outside. Can I bring them?”

– Mmm. It’s not supposed to be, but you’re an exception. You’ve done great things one after another, so no one will object. Even if there is, don’t worry, I’ll go out on my own.

The academy is, after all, an educational institution to root out the forces of evil spirits. There are things I’ve done so far, so I can rightfully ask for this much.

Okay. Until here.

“Ah, can you give me and Fei-senpai’s class exemption ticket along with that? I don’t know what to say in front of the president, but I think it’s better to go out and fight or focus on individual research than taking classes.”

– Huh.

To put it simply, I want to receive the facilities and benefits of the academy, but I don’t want to take the classes! The sound.

Even so, Rebecca couldn’t answer this right away, but after a moment of thought, she finally nodded her head.

-Great. However, only the class is exempted and the test is still required. And if you don’t pass the passing grade, of course you’ll be suspended… How is it?

“That is enough.”

Although I am weak in the theory part, it is not at the level of whether or not I get a failing grade.

It’s just that if you let me save face, I’ll listen to what you want.

I’m grateful for even this far, but Rebecca’s consideration is not over yet.

– Take it.

“This… ?”

A large key that fell in your hand. Of course, it’s not just a key, it’s an artifact. I can feel the subtle magic power.

-This is the key to the old dormitory, which is no longer in use. If you’re worried about the group and want to stay together, it’s better if you don’t separate and live together. The current dormitory will be a bit cramped.

“Ah.”

So, you can bring Fay and live together, but then the dormitory will be small, so you’re saying you’ll give me a building that’s not being used at all?

“Persimmon… Buy it?”

It was a while for Rebecca to nod her head in bewilderment at the appearance of Rebecca, who came out bigger than expected.

I decided to try to be a little more greedy with this.

“Then can you tell me whenever there is information related to the cult?”

-… The academy isn’t even an information guild, that’s a bit.

“I’m going to subjugate the important places first.”

-I’ll let you know through Professor Iona.

Rebecca Grimfield. She is 350 (estimated).

If you were a cultist, you were at an age to be terrified.
