Chapter 123 – It’s more scary when a person who stays still is angry
When a professor submits an application for an advisor at Noble Academy, the document is immediately is transmitted as ‘of’.
Department Head Professor Meeting is a meeting of department heads and professors who represent each department.
In other words, the authority is stronger than other faculty meetings, and the responsibility is also strict.
And now, the department head professors of the academic department, sitting around a square table, were continuing the meeting sweating over an application for an advisor submitted by a professor.
“First of all, you should be well aware of the topic of this meeting today.”
The first to speak was Prelda, a senior professor who was the organizer of the department head faculty meeting and who taught students at Noble Academy for the longest time.
She is from the Kingdom of Alberium, she was sent for friendship between the Empire of El Pario and the Kingdom of Alberium, and she found out that she had a talent for teaching students, and she has been teaching for over 70 years. While she was teaching at Noble Academy.
As can be seen in the time of 50 years, the heads of departments and professors of each department who are currently attending this meeting were her students.
“A new professor, ‘Professor Nina Gratias Esselton’, who came to our academy through the exchange professor system, applied for an advisory position.”
It was because of Nina that Frelda held the faculty meeting this time.
“In principle, any professor can apply for the advisory professor system, and there are no restrictions on the students who can become an advisory professor. However, it is the first time since the foundation of the academy that a new professor becomes an advisor to a new student.”
At Frelda’s words, all the professors nodded in unison.
It was surprisingly common for a professor at Noble Academy to discover a new student with outstanding abilities and become an advisor in charge of that student.
It was because there were not a few cases where students of a little older age were belatedly admitted to the Noble Academy with their talents blooming.
“In addition, you all know the freshman that Professor Nina submitted an application to become an advisor. In the entrance exam, he is a talented person among talented people who successfully counterattacked, not only avoiding the attack of the instructor, who is the opponent of the practical test.”
Professor Frelda gave a very generous evaluation of Adalbert.
The reason why she gave Adalbert a generous evaluation was that he avoided the attack of the instructor, the opponent of the practical test, and even counterattacked.
“As you well know, the practical training instructor for this entrance exam is the commander of a well-known task force in the El Pario Empire and is a swordsman with a high level of swordsmanship. To say that you can avoid his attacks and even counterattack…….”
Prelda didn’t finish her words and ended her words with a trailing edge, but she and all of her professors present knew what she was trying to say.
The skills of a freshman named Adalbert are strong enough to defeat the incumbent task force commander.
Among the professors gathered here, some of them showed quite a bit of surprise.
Because the task force of the Elpario Empire was an organization created to protect the empire from monsters that could threaten the safety of the empire.
In order to deal with monsters strong enough to threaten the safety of the empire, members of the task force needed strong stamina and excellent skills.
And it was only natural that the strongest among the members of such a task force would become the task force’s commander.
It was because he needed that kind of skill to save his comrades from monster attacks.
For that reason, Adalbert was a freshman that many professors were eyeing.
“This is really amazing. What is the major of the freshman named Adalbert?”
“Swordsmanship, of course.”
In response to a professor’s question, Prelda looked at the professor who asked the question with a gaze as if asking why he was asking something obvious.
Since the professor was also Frelda’s disciple, he couldn’t help but bow his head at his teacher’s gaze.
“Anyway, Adalbert’s major is swordsmanship, but Professor Nina’s major is healing and medicine.”
“That means… ….”
“Right. Adalbert students have to choose. Whether he will learn swordsmanship or Chiyu.”
At Frelda’s words, the professors gathered here were lost in thought.
What kind of choice did that student named Adalbert make?
The professors began to think about what choice they would have made if they were Adalbert.
If your swordsmanship skills are high enough to beat the commander of the task force, you can not only graduate at the top of the class, but even graduate early.
To say that he beat the upper level of Sword Expert was at least the highest level of Sword Expert or Master.
If Adalbert, who is presumed to be the best sword expert, graduates from Noble Academy with his major in swordsmanship, he would try to take him here and there on good terms.
Even if you reach the level of sword expert, you can become an escort knight for a tolerable family, so Adalbert, who seemed to be at the top level, was not an escort knight, but even the son-in-law of a powerful aristocratic family.
Taking this into consideration, the professors thought that if Adalbert gave up his swordsmanship and learned healing, he would rot his tremendous talent.
“Of course, you have to respect your choice and there is no coercion, but I want Adalbert to choose the path of swordsmanship as much as possible.”
“Me too.”
“I will respect your opinion, but I hope you will choose swordsmanship as your original major.”
As soon as the head professor of the Department of Martial Arts opened up the water, other professors began to express their opinions one after another as if they agreed with him.
Frelda smiled as she watched the professors eagerly submit their opinions.
And the professors who saw it all had to keep their mouths shut.
“Whoops. Okay.”
There is a saying in Noble Academy.
“I understand what you think.”
-Everyone who sees the smile of the ‘witch’ will die.
“Listening to everyone’s enthusiastic sharing of opinions, do I have a good idea?”
And the nickname of Prelda, a senior professor at Noble Academy…….
“Anyway, I have the final authority, so I will meet the student in person and listen to his/her story and make a decision.”
It was a ‘witch’.
Frelda was smiling, but she had thick veins protruding from her forehead, and she was under the influence of her emotions. Was being lifted up.
In other words, she was smiling now, but she was very angry.
It was because she didn’t like the fact that her favorite students (?), Who usually didn’t say anything when they held a meeting, attended the meeting with such enthusiasm.
She knew why the head of the department wanted a student named Adalbert to choose swordsmanship.
The so-called ‘training of newcomers’ was intended.
As for what taming this rookie is, it could be said that it is a set of dung-gun techniques that are not often revealed in the Noble Academy.
When a new professor wants to do something, he unconditionally submits a dissenting opinion, and if there is something that needs to be submitted or approved, he doesn’t do anything as close to the deadline as possible, and then suddenly does something the day before the deadline, making fun of the new professor. It was an action.
Of course, Prelda knew all of this, and was determined to catch and half-kill them if they were caught, but they just happened to be caught.
“Hey. f*ck everyone in the head.”
As soon as the rude words of head banging came out of Frelda’s smiling mouth, all the department heads sitting at her table rose from their seats and banged their heads on the office floor.
“The world has gotten better, hasn’t it?”
“… ….”
“Hey, is it illegal for a new professor to become a freshman advisor?”
“Oh no!”
“But those bastards who know that are just kidding!”
Prelda banged her desk with the file folder she was holding, as if she had a very good day today.
“You bastards. An orc who bandits in the mountains won’t do that. You scum that couldn’t even get caught in these goblin claws!”
What came out of the beautiful elf’s mouth was not a poem or a song praising nature, but a savage curse.
“I thought you weren’t going to bet on anything else because I’ve been patient with you until now, right? You goblin dandruff bastards! What I’ve endured so far was for this very moment, you orcish bastards!”
“Teacher! Orc Bural! You are too much!”
“Shut up your mouth!”
“Wow!”
A professor stood up and protested as if he was unfair when he said that they were like orcs, but it was a cool water bomb flying at him.
“Come. I will make you realize that the ‘witch’ of yesteryear has returned today. My beloved disciples.”
In the end, it is said that the sound of pigs being kicked was heard all day long in the office of the senior professor, Prelda.
The next day, Nina’s advisory documents were passed unanimously without a single unconcerned opinion, and she was able to become Adalbert’s advisor.
FYI, the department head professors said that they took sick leave for 3 weeks as a group.
