295 – Confectionery Club Yes – 3
Since most of the imperial nobles attended the academy and had experience in club activities, it is safe to say that the club fair goes beyond an academy event and is an event of the empire. Do. In the name of club seniors, it is a place where nobles who have already graduated come into contact with those who are currently enrolled in school. That’s a club fair.
And the club fair has evolved from being a domestic event to an international event.
“Yes, that’s right. I also received it yesterday.”
“That’s right.”
The next day after hearing from the minister that guests from other countries would come, he immediately went to the principal and received a calm reply. I see The principal also heard yesterday.
If the news reached the ears of the principal, the head of the academy, it would be a confirmation, not a mere possibility. What the minister said to me was, ‘There is such a thing.’ It could end with the same chirashi, but if it was delivered to the principal, the Ministry of Education officially said, ‘Guests are coming.’ I mean you said
This is absurd. Why do students cross borders to see what to see at the fair? Does everyone have time left? Some people want to play but can’t.
‘I would have come even if it wasn’t for the fair.’
Of course, I know that the purpose of visiting the academy itself, not just to see the fair, is a fact that I know, the principal knows, and Villar, who passed by, also knows. I was only aiming for a way to go to the academy somehow, but during the fair, the academy is open to outsiders? It is not strange to enter while doing somersaults.
Furthermore, the minister said that Ernesto Academy was feverish, but not only Ernesto Academy, but wizards from all over the continent would come running. High-ranking wizards can use teleport easily, so crossing the border won’t be a problem.
“I’m worried that there will be too many customers. I wonder if the principal is putting too much pressure on you.”
Imagined a crowd of self-proclaimed scholars who had failed to enter the academy, and then opened their mouths subtly. No matter how much I think about it, the turmoil caused by Jong-Gong Ma came to the academy, no matter who sees it, because of me.
If you have a human heart, you are in a position to apologize to the principal. It’s because I got a splendid time when I didn’t have to.
“It’s okay, the purpose of the fair is not to enjoy it. If there are many customers, it’s welcome.”
But the principal replied with a calm smile. Weird. Judging by the expression and voice, it is not irony, much less liberation.
‘Is it really okay?’
No, why? From the principal’s point of view, isn’t it a situation where things that can be handled as usual have been elevated to things that need to be handled with care? If it were me, I would want to kill the guy who messed with my work routine.
If you think positively, you can say that the principal’s years of experience and patience have shone through, but the pain of public officials does not change even with age. On the contrary, if you have a lot of work even though you are old, you will be more miserable. I wonder what would be better between overwork and goryeojang.
And the principal, perhaps noticing my question, opened his mouth with a deeper smile.
“Ernesto Academy said they wanted to follow the imperial academy’s education system. They said they would like to teach me as a student, not a guest.”
“Oh, is that so?”
As soon as I heard those words, I could understand why the headmaster was calm——if you looked closely, he seemed subtly happy.
‘You won.’
It was peaceful because the principal had won the long battle of pride between the two academies.
The highest educational institution of the continent’s strongest country, the Imperial Academy, which teaches all fields, and the Ernesto Academy, which teaches magic in the sorcery powerhouse. Coincidentally, it was customary for the principal of the two academies to be a master mage recognized on the continent, so the relationship between the Imperial Academy and the Ernesto Academy was secretly fighting.
If you look at the overall system, the Imperial Academy wins, but the headmasters are magicians before they are educators, so the battle of nerves only took place in the field of magic. Of course, the magic skills of the United Kingdom of Juven could not be ignored even by the empire, so it continued fiercely like an ointment war.
However, the game was broken when Prince Ma Jong made the Imperial Academy his home. If the 120-year-old Einstein raises one hand, the game is over.
“Congratulations. Even Juven can’t defeat the Empire. It’s fortunate that the principal’s efforts have borne fruit.”
“Heh heh, I wonder if that’s my own strength. It’s only possible thanks to the strength of the academy I’ve built up over the years.”
Anyway, the smile on the principal’s face didn’t leave after the great victory at the Yon-Ko Competition.
But it’s worth it. If there is a president who ended the Ointment Match with the victory of his school, it is the president who will remain in the history of the school.
“In fact, it’s only natural. There are people in the Empire who have reached the end of magic, so how can they compare with other countries?”
I just nodded at the proud words. It’s the first time the headmaster shows such strong emotions, but considering that wizards are usually insane, it’s a good expression of emotion.
“And this is the story of when I went to Juven when I was young—”
…I believe it is good.
***
I didn’t know that the cost of one wrong sneeze would be so great.
“Hey, Erich. If I go in now—”
“No.”
My mouth, which had barely opened at the firm answer, closed again. It seems like you’ve been out for quite a while, but by Erich’s standards, it’s still a long way off.
‘I don’t have to do this.’
It’s embarrassing. After being taken to the infirmary for sneezing, Erich wanders outside as if he would die if I entered the club room.
To be exact, when it was time to start making confectionery in the club room, he vacated his seat with me. It was because it would be difficult to sneeze again after being inside.
“It’s just because of the flour. Once you get used to it, you’ll be fine.
Of course, I refused at first. It’s a club I joined because I wanted to be with Erich, but I’m also a member of the confectionery club. At the same time, a member who can’t even get involved in confectionery and comes out of the club room when he starts confectionery? No matter how little social experience I have, I know it’s a strange situation.
“What if flour doesn’t suit you? What if your body rejected it instead of tickling your nose?”
However, Erich just shook his head without making any concessions. It’s nonsense. If I had a reaction to flour, I would have known it a long time ago. How many cookies or bread I ate.
“The flour before baking may be different from the flour after baking. Stay outside with me until the results come out.”
Still, I couldn’t bear to refuse until the end when I heard a voice full of worries.
Yeah, you’re doing this because you’re worried about me, not for any other reason. Then, obeying meekly would be for the sake of Erich. Besides, like Erich said, flour may not suit your body. She’s also had an overhaul at the infirmary, so we’ll just have to wait a few days.
‘It’s just the two of us.’
To be honest, I am both embarrassed and happy. It’s good to be in the same space as Erich, but it’s better to take a walk together like this. It’s our own time where no one disturbs us.
Fortunately, Karl’s older brother, Louise, and the other members also understood. I don’t know if it’s because I’m seen by others as someone who would fall into serious trouble even with flour, or if Erich sent me out because he was too extravagant.
“Shall we sit down for a while?”
“Oh, yes.”
At the same time, Erich led me to a nearby bench, as if I understood the question asking if I could go in now as meaning he was tired.
Of course I am not tired. I only walked around the promenade near the building, but if I was tired, I wouldn’t have been able to enter the academy. However, if Erich is mistaken, she is willing to put off tired.
‘…Shouldn’t it be around your shoulders?’
So, can I borrow your shoulder? Even Erich wouldn’t push a tired kid if he leaned on it. I’d like to use my knees, but I’m shy because it’s outdoors, not in a carriage.
Okay, let’s be satisfied with our shoulders for now. Being together in the spring breeze is also romantic.
“Um? Were you around?”
While I was imagining such happiness, I heard a voice that disturbed my happiness.
Following the voice, I turned my gaze, and Lutis was bouncing the ball on the floor and approaching. Even Highness Ainter, Lower Later, and Mr. Tanian, all of them.
It’s strange. You must have been busy discussing cookies or candy shapes? He was so engrossed that it was scary to approach him, so I thought he would be like that for a few more days.
“What, why did you come out?”
Erich also tilted his head as if wondering at the sudden appearance of the members. Erich was also a participant in the discussion until recently. He must have felt the heat of the discussion more vividly than I did, so it would be even more questionable.
“Because I’m tired of using my head. You need your body as well as your head to be healthy.”
It sounds like a bit of a strange logic, but if it’s the royal family, then it must be so.
***
The members, who were having discussions that were not particularly productive, rushed out to cool their heads.
‘Why didn’t I go out?’
From noble mtl dot com
Not particularly surprising. Aren’t they the ones who changed the ‘jg’ of the confectionery club to jokgu? Spring in this world is not a season to suffer from fine dust or yellow dust, but a season to go out and play.
The only thing I’m worried about is that there was Sera near the stadium they use. Would it be okay to show Sera, who is already instilling false common sense, the real-time foot volleyball scene?
After looking out the window for a long time, I turned around. It’s not just Sera, Erich is by his side, so it should be fine. I believe that you will adjust yourself before you have a strange misunderstanding.
“Are you doing this right?”
“Right! Wow, you’re following right away, right?”
“Huh, it’s because the teacher is good.”
Louisé and Majonggong remain in the club room as the members leave as a group. Hearing the conversation between the two of them, as always, mixed emotions.
At a time when all the members are escaping, Ma Jong-gong, who is not even an official member, is living like Ji Park-ryeong in the club room… This year, he works harder than most other members… He seems to be a hero who ended the match, but he doesn’t seem interested…
‘…Shall I hand over the advisory position?’
Honestly, there are probably more breads made by Majonggong than breads made by me. A situation that is already more suitable for a pastry club advisor than me.
They said he was afraid of the hobbies he learned belatedly.
