Civil Servant in a Romance Fantasy chapter 5

I’m dispatched – 2

‘If a problem arises and leads to a war, it’s your responsibility, so cheer up!’ After hearing the same bullsh*t, I couldn’t keep my body still. He hurriedly handed over to the deputy general manager and spurred preparations for the academy by distributing urgent tasks to the managers. It’s already been 4 years since I’ve been a civil servant, and it’s the first time I’ve ever been dispatched like this.

“Come to think of it, I decided to withdraw from the academy except for the necessary personnel, but who will be my assistant in the academy…?”

“No.”

“Well, then how much is the subsidy?”

“No.”

“…Where is the activity fee supplied?”

“No.”

“Then what is there?”

“No.”

It’s really terrifying. I don’t know who said you can’t spit on a smiling face, but I don’t know if you can spit on the smiling face of the foreign minister, but I think you can punch it.

“I’m sorry. The three countries made so many concessions. Officially, I had to cut all but the minimum.”

“How do you operate in such an environment? That northern dispatch also provides enough supplies!”

“Don’t worry too much, though. You’re nominally an inspector, so you don’t have to move so much that you need helpers and money.”

No matter what I hear, I am put into a situation where I have no choice but to worry. Recalling the last conversation he had with the foreign minister, he let out a growing sigh.

It’s sad to leave for an indefinite dispatch during the manager’s time, and it’s crazy that the place is an academy, but there’s no support for the manager who’s leaving a long way. Blood single is not a metaphor. I really have to go into the academy alone and get rooted.

“But during vacation, you can come back and rest. This is a perfect academy student.”

“That, please shut up.”

I gritted my teeth at the minister’s provocative words. You sound like a vacation. What does vacation mean to civil servants, it changes only when you work. The minister’s expression sneered at my fierce reaction, as if saying, “What are you going to do because you’re angry?”

My life with such a thing as my direct superior is a legend. Dog guy.

“Let’s go now. Please give me your dispatch card.”

If you can’t change the future of being stuck in the academy anyway, it’s better to quickly get out of the face you don’t want to see. Every time I see the minister’s face, my mental strength seems to change in real time.

To Carl, who held out his hand and asked for the dispatch certificate, the minister smiled and handed over the dispatch certificate. I kept teasing him because his expression of properly chewing sh*t was quite nice to see, but there wasn’t enough time to hold on to it any longer.

“If you get into an accident, no parents will cover you, so be careful.”

“Ah, Your Excellency!”

I teased you one last time.

“Chapter 1 focuses on what I told you.”

“Yes”

“Separate the 2nd class documents separately. You know we have to finish it quickly, right?”

“Yes, yes, of course.”

“Sections 3 and 5 don’t have to be big, so do it on your own.”

“Okay.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Yes… The conductor, do your best.”

“Yes, thank you.”

In front of the Ministry of Finance building, I looked at the executives with an uneasy mind as I asked them to trust me for the last time. The deputy manager, who met the deadline with my dispatch, is rather a person who needs to be comforted, and the 5th section is a guy with the least sense, so I can get over it. But in the Inspection Department without a manager, will the other chiefs live quietly…?

‘Should I take the second section chief with me now?’

You don’t know what will happen if the three chiefs come together to form a trinity. Aren’t they the crazy ones who broke through the surveillance and led the Golden Ball’s wrath even while I was living in the office and monitoring it in real time?

Who’s Next to the Golden Ball? Is it a legend or an iron-blooded? At that time, you might really have to run to the Duke Castle, pierce the head, and sacrifice the chiefs. Manager Lee didn’t know anything, please save me!

“…Why do you look at me that way? Scary.”

Chief of section 2 shuddered for a moment and asked if he could feel the chill in my gaze. Perhaps you have glimpsed a parallel world where you are being sacrificed.

“No, nothing.”

I was contemplating until the end whether to cast the water ghost meta on Section 2, but in the end I shook my head and gave up. Wasn’t it a situation where only Carl had to go alone with his business card as an inspector in order not to provoke the Three Kingdoms?

I can’t suddenly take the 2nd section chief, and there’s no reason to take him. To be honest, the reason seems to be overflowing, but the fact that I can’t take him is all the same.

‘Do I really have to trust him? Do you trust these bastards?’

Hihi, the street caught the exaggerated eyes. My eyes went dark for a moment.

“I will live without any problems as much as possible. I can’t give another trouble to the manager who is going through a hard time in a foreign country.”

As my expression slightly distorted, the conductor finally opened his mouth, and only then was I able to nod my head. Yes, if you can’t trust the exaggeration, trust the conductor.

“Still, if something happens, call me right away.”

“Yes. I will definitely do it.

“…Yes.”

After I quietly whispered to the conductor one last time, the carriage picked me up and headed south.

“Damn it, road conditions suck.”

The wagon, which set off in a stately manner, leaving anxiety behind, moved excitedly as it got closer to the academy, as if it had entrusted itself to the cheerful rhythm of the club. Coachman, coachman, pump this party…

Obviously, I remember spending some money on the budget for road construction in this area in the past, but looking at it, it seems that it went into the expansion of the governor’s mansion, not the road construction. When you arrive, you will first shake off.

As soon as the nameless local governor was recorded on the top row of the killing department, the carriage once again excitedly welcomed the decision. It must be hard for you to run on a road like this. It’s been a long time since I’ve already built a small friendship with the carriage.

The coachman is outside, but the coachman freaks out when you talk to him due to the overwhelming class gap, so it can be said that the coachman is my only friend. Still, such a rattling expression of friendship was not particularly welcome.

“Damn it. I can’t use teleport.”

Teleport is not a common magic, but teleport magic circles are installed in major cities in the empire for smooth movement. Of course, considering the importance of the academy, a magic circle should exist there, but due to the specificity of the area where the academy was located, the installation of a magic circle was thoroughly excluded.

At the time when the Kfellofen Empire was still called a kingdom, the Apels Empire was the strongest country on the continent at the time. The place that boasted prosperity as the capital of the Apels Empire is where the academy is today.

What was that? It is said that the Apels Empire encouraged education and built the current academy in splendor, and Kpelofen, who cut off the head of the Apels Empire, decided to use it as it was because it could not bear to push the academy away or create a new one elsewhere. In the first place, I was not in a position to cover it because I did not have enough money back then.

However, it is said that the magic circle was not intentionally set up because if the city that was the capital of the enemy country was too active and accessible, it would give the Apels Revival Army room to gather. Roughly for that reason, the academy has been a place where you can’t benefit from teleport until now, and thanks to that, you have to overuse the wagon to get there. Or hire a wizard who can cast teleport.

Of course, it may have been a plausible reason at the time, but now, 300 years after I trampled on Apels, I don’t have to worry about it. Because the Apels Resurrection Army soon disappeared with a brilliant light due to Kpelofen’s persistent pursuit.

Actually, the reason why I have not installed it until now is because it is expensive. The teleport magic circle is not something that can be made, and the maintenance cost is no joke. The only place near the academy is really the academy, so no one has to go there, and since there are decent facilities in the academy, there’s no need to go out…

‘Minister Shibala.’

A few months ago, I saw that the Minister’s proposal to install a magic circle in the academy was dismissed for that reason, so I’m sure. If I had known I would be dispatched to the academy like this, then I would have somehow passed it. In the end, the minister turned around and it was the problem. Please, if you suddenly die suddenly somewhere.

“Director, the academy is starting to appear.”

“Oh.”

I had no one to talk to, so I was following the stream of consciousness. I was delighted with the coachman’s words and took in the huge castle wall dimly visible through the window. Wow, high…

“It’s majestic. It’s that big in this street.”

“As you may know, the scale has grown quite a bit as more and more merchants targeting faculty and students gather. And as merchants’ families and merchants targeting their families gather, the academy is not just an educational institution. It turned into a city.”

‘Academy City…’

There seems to be a student who shoots a railgun well.

After that, the coachman and I were silent again, and only the rattling of the carriage could be heard. After a poor and long trip, I was able to see the academy, but it was awkward to talk openly with each other. The suffocating silence was broken only after passing through the gates.

“The number of guards has decreased a lot.”

I checked the distance through the window while carrying the dispatch certificate I had shown to the guards to pass through the gate. Lots of people, lots of shops. But the guards are nowhere to be seen. They are all civilians who live in Academy City, no, in the academy.

“Hmm, is that so? It’s my first time at the academy, so I’m not sure.”

“Even just before, there were usually 4 people guarding the castle gate.”

Those words reminded me of the time I passed through the castle gate. As soon as I showed the dispatch certificate, the appearance of my body trembling like a cell phone vibrating was rare, and apart from the fact that I sent a thank you for your hard work, there were only two soldiers guarding the gate, not four.

‘They withdrew with only the minimum number of people left.’

“There are no helpers in the academy.”

“Everyone withdraw, so no one will be able to help you.”

“What if I twisted it? You should have been spectacular.”

The Foreign Minister’s words (in my extremely subjectively distorted memory) came to my mind again. It was really touching to see it with my own eyes rather than just hearing it in words and understanding it with my head. In the academy, an unknown space where he has never had a relationship in his life, he must stand up for himself as an inspector.

‘When is vacation… When…?’

University is usually in June, is that the case here too?

Feeling again the feelings of a college student looking at the end of the course at the same time as the beginning of the semester, I had to stop at the academy’s main building to end my long carriage life.
