Chapter 424 – Chapter 424 – Tikia-San’s School Days

◈

While enjoying a comfortable Sky Fly using telekinesis, Tikia and I headed for the magic city.

Before leaving, I asked Niña and Noah if they would like to go together, but they said that they would be immersed in training today, so Tikia and I left alone.

While flying, I did not forget to hug Tikia, pet her, and praise her.

“Before the guild leader came, the speed was great.”

“Hehe, of course! I’m a genius!”

“My, Mr. Tikia, is a genius. Besides, he is also lovable, isn’t he?”

“The real Rant is good at saying such menacing things.”

“You don’t like it?”

“It’s great! The other side♡”

It feels good to receive Tikia’s soft kisses her three times in a row.

On the way, I decided to ask Tikia questions in advance.

“Come to think of it, Mr. Tikia. He called the director of the magic academy even a lazy man. Has anything happened in the past?”

“With the chairman? No, there’s nothing to do. If there’s work, it’s the bitches who were in the same class as me.”

“Then why do you call me a slacker?”

“That’s because I think I’ve become very slow as the chairman.”

“For example?”

“…It’s not really something to brag about.”

Tikia sighed and said.

“How many times have I told Rant? There were a lot of bitches fighting with me.”

“Yes.”

“One of the biggest reasons for the quarrel is that I’m a genius. I’m much better at magic than they are, so I’m jealous or jealous. Because I’m young.

But you know what? There are things that I am a genius, but they don’t study on their own. Study. I wouldn’t be too upset if they worked hard, felt the difference in talent, and started fighting out of resentment.

But in normal classes, people who joke around with each other or do other things come and fight with me, who studied hard and worked hard.

“I’m sure it is.”

“Isn’t the place I went to a magic academy? Isn’t it an educational institution? Then you should be careful of those who don’t study or be more enthusiastic about education. But the academy professors at the magic academy don’ don’t care at all.

Just explain the magic theory in front of you and that’s it. Well, that alone helped me. Still, somehow I managed to get to the third grade…

Tikia smiled and said.

“When I took the graduation exam, when 70% of my classmates got a failing grade, I thought I knew that. At that time, the chairman of the board said it was really funny when he said something like this.

Even though he himself is a lazy person who doesn’t pay attention to the academy and stays in the director’s office. Well, with an additional exam later, those bastards somehow managed to graduate.”

“Wow…”

It’s serious.

And I knew why Tikia-san called the head of the magic academy a lazy person.

I thought it would be quite a problem as the head of an academy if one grade was neglected to such an extent.

“Ah, Mr. Tikia, I’ll stop by my father after stopping by the magic academy. I haven’t even served the Crimson Minotaur’s meat dish and female Orc champion steak yet.”

“So. Umm, but…”

“Why is that?”

“No, if the master eats that dish, he won’t come back from Changgwan for a while… If he eats that, his body warms up, and he’s overflowing with energy, right?”

I certainly think that the possibility is very high.

“Tikia, don’t you hate your father going to Changgwan?”

“No, it doesn’t really matter anymore because it’s a daily routine… I’m worried that you won’t even eat.”

Mr. Tikia, who worried about Mr. Chainver in the end even though he spoke harshly, was lovely.

“Haha, Tikia-san should be careful before eating it.”

“I wonder if that old man will listen…”

Soon after, we arrived at the Magic City.

After landing on the ground, as usual, I put Tikia on my shoulder and walked.

“Come to think of it, you haven’t given Rant a tour of the magic academy yet, have you?”

“Yes. Tikia-san… She wanted to be with me, so she immediately went to the streets at night.”

“Uh, uh…”

“Shall we go again when we meet Mr. Chainver after work?”

Mr. Tikia said while holding my head tightly.

“…Shall we go.”

“Yes!”

Following Tikia-san’s guidance, I arrived at the magic academy.

The magic academy was connected with a building with a pointed roof that felt like a medieval aristocratic building.

“Ohhh, that’s nice.”

“I’m not very impressed after watching it for three years. Let’s just go in quickly.”

Saying so, Tikia floated for a while with the floating magic and came down to the ground.

“Can’t you ride a wooden horse?”

“You bump into it when you pass a door on the way.”

“Aha.”

“This way.”

I followed Tikia through the hallways of the magic academy.

At a hotel on a night street in the Magic City, I saw young students passing by wearing the same design as Tikia wore.

And just look at it, it’s a wizard! There were also people wearing robes and cone-shaped hats as if to promote it.

Could it have been 15 minutes?

“Here.”

I arrived at the office of the head of the magic academy.

I knocked on the door first.

Smart.

“Who is it?”

An old man’s voice was heard over the door.

“I’m from Fledan.”

“At Fledan…? Already? Hmm, come in.”

With permission granted, I went into the office of the chairman with Tikia.

“Huh…”

As soon as we entered, the old man, probably the head of the magic academy, saw Mr. Tikia and slightly widened his eyes.

“It seems that you are definitely from Fledan. Long time no see, Tikia student.”

“I graduated, so I’m not a student anymore.”

“Tikia-san…”

Wouldn’t it be okay to at least be a little polite to the president of the academy you came from?

However, it was also understood that Tikia could not have good feelings towards the chairman, who was said to have been of no help during her stormy school days.

“Heh heh, yes. You’re not a student at our academy right now, you’re an adventurous person. But you are definitely a proud alumnus of our academy. But while I haven’t seen you… Your outfit has become much prettier.”

“Huh!”

Hmmm, I think Tikia-san will be in a bad mood if she stays still like this.

Let’s finish the ball first.

I walked forward and took out the scroll given by the guild leader and put it on the desk.

“Here is the scroll you requested.”

“Ah, thank you.”

The chairman took the scroll, unfolded it, and nodded his head as he checked the contents.

“Well received. Dante’s guild leader said he would send the most trustworthy adventurer. I’m really surprised that he’s so fast.”

“Thank you.”

At that time, Mr. Tikia said to the chairman.

“Hey, Chairman. But why did you call me?”

The voice sounded a little worse than before.

Maybe it’s because I came to the magic academy and remembered my stormy school days?

“If it was a delivery request anyway, I wouldn’t have called.”

“Heh heh heh, don’t you understand why I want to see a cute graduate?”

“I can’t.”

“Hmm, even though he looks cute, his rough personality his seems to be the same.”

Fast.

Mr. Tikia said, crossing his arms.

“Somebody threw the academy away without even taking on the job properly. Where the atmosphere is shit, the personality gets really damn good.”

“… I don’t have anything to say about that. Even though I’m the chairman of the board, I’m so focused on my research… I couldn’t even pay attention to how the academy works. Tikia, you’ve improved a lot since you graduated.

In academies, the frequency of bullying is overwhelmingly reduced, and sanctions are imposed on students who do not put too much effort into their studies.”

“Oh, yes.”

“It probably has nothing to do with you who have already graduated. But… As the chairman, I want to apologize to you. I’m sorry, Tikia.”

Mr. Tikia looked at the chairman with thin eyes and said.

“… Well, aside from an apology. What was the real reason you called me?”

“I really apologize…”

“Ah, yes, there must be something you want to apologize for. But there shouldn’t be other reasons either. For example… You want me to come back to the magic academy?”

“Yes?”

Tikia-san goes to magic academy again?

“Heh heh, of course I have that kind of heart. To be precise, Tikia, I want you to become my assistant and help me with my research.”

Tikia said with a snort.

“Heh, I knew it would be like that.”

“…Hey. What do you mean by what you just said? Tikia-san is going to be the chairman’s assistant?”

What I just said is very important to me as well.

“Hmm, you’re from Tikia…”

“I am a lover.”

“Oh. Then you deserve a reason. You don’t know, but Tikia was a very good student. Her grades were always top of the class for all three years at a young age. In fact, Tikia was hired as my assistant right after graduating. I was going to do it, but… On the day of the graduation ceremony, it caused a big incident, so I couldn’t do it.”

“A case?”

“As the head representative, I laughed, teased, and ridiculed those who took the additional exam because they failed in the graduation exam, although it was embarrassing in front of many students. He started a fight with those who took the additional exam.

Of course… Tikia won against that many people.”

“Wow.”

When I looked at Mr. Tikia in surprise, Mr. Tikia stretched out his chest and put on a confident expression.

“Ahem! I was really in a bad mood then!”

“Thanks to that, other students and professors also looked at me, so I couldn’t pick Tikia as my assistant.”

“Even if I try to pull it out, I have no intention of going.”

“Still, I was interested in you even after graduation.

“… Judging from the fact that I haven’t called while I was in the Magic City, I think it doesn’t matter even if I’m not there, so why did you suddenly call me like this?”

“Because of this.”

The chairman pointed to the scroll I had brought.

“Actually, this is a blueprint for a magic tool that has the potential to make the world easier now. Fledan made magic tools that were still in their early stages and distributed them to various countries.

I saw this and thought it was very groundbreaking, so I asked Fldan to see the blueprint for better improvement.

Tikia, I want you to be my assistant and help me improve this magic tool. There are huge possibilities hidden in this magic tool. If it helps the development of that magic tool, it’s nothing short of a great honor as a wizard…”

“No thanks.”

Mr. Tikia flatly rejected the chairman’s words.

“… Why?”

“Do you think I’m crazy and will come back to this damn academy with only fucking memories? And I’m a wizard too, so I’m curious about magic, but it’s only about magic that I’m interested in personally.

I don’t care about the development of the world or anything. And living in Fledan with Lant is a thousand times better than being in the Wizarding City.”

“If you become an assistant, you will also receive a subsidy for the magic research you want…”

“I earn more while being an adventurer in Fledan.”

“Dungeons are dangerous to life…”

“Because our Rant is very strong, he will protect me properly. It’s because he’s an S-rank adventurer.”

“… What? S rank? Then, are you… A Dungeon Crasher?

“Yes.”

“… This is a great man as a lover. But, it’s not like the guild leader of Fledan puts his trust in it for nothing.”

The chairman of the board closed his eyes for a moment and thought, then he sighed.

“Haa… I can’t help it. Tikia, if you refuse like that, I won’t offer any more. If you insisted too much, the hero of Fledan, who stopped the disaster, will be angry with me. “

I don’t get angry if it’s forced.

Only if you try to force a separation between me and Tikia-san…

I will be very angry.

At least I’m going to get angry enough to punch the president’s face.

“I’m done talking about this, so you can go back now.”

“Huh.”

Tikia still seems to be in a bad mood.

It seems that the assistant proposal was quite unsatisfying.

Upon returning, I immediately drop by Mr. Chainver’s house to deliver food, and then go straight to the night street…

Wooooo!!!

Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard outside.
