conspiracy (2)
President Frederick, Vice-Chancellor Claudia, General Office Batian, etc.
A heated discussion took place in the meeting room where the main executives of the academy gathered. There was an argument over the punishment of Karios.
“hello. It doesn’t matter now.”
“If that’s not important, what’s important! Yes? Two people died.”
“They were death row inmates anyway. They said they deserved to die.”
He should be permanently stripped of his professorship, at least he should step down from his position as head professor, it’s right to just go quietly, he broke through the security of a first-class national facility alone, so this should also be included in his career, he should put up a congratulatory poster honoring his achievements, etc.
Many opinions came and went.
The disciplinary committee that went on for over an hour like that. After countless clashes, they managed to finally come to a consensus.
Rector Frederick lifted the baton.
“The 19th Disciplinary Committee will decide to deprive Chief Professor Karios of his professorship for one month.”
Tang Tang Tang.
a total of three times.
The sound of the heavy judgment rod echoed in the conference room, and the disciplinary meeting ended.
Deprivation of teaching privileges for one month.
To put it simply, I can’t lecture for a month this semester, and a professor named Carolyn has replaced the vacancy. Compared to killing two people, it was a punishment with a cotton bat. Furthermore, the actual record was scheduled to be recorded as a one-month leave of absence due to health problems, not deprivation due to disciplinary action.
That would also be the case, because Kariosu, along with Leonard, are the leading professors at the Imperial Academy.
Karios, who was once a promising archmage candidate and a master of the offensive line.
If his image is tarnished by this incident, if there is a red line in his teaching career, the academy will suffer as much damage as Karios. From next year, the number of offensive magic talents could be drastically reduced.
Therefore, the academy chose to protect Karios.
It’s a fact that I found out belatedly, but it was the academy that covered this case.
“Thank you all for your hard work. Let’s end the disciplinary committee.”
Frederick rose from the president’s chair.
As he left the meeting room, other executives also left one by one. Vice-Chancellor Claudia followed Batian, who was about to leave first.
“Director Batian, please talk to me for a moment about the disciplinary record.”
“Ah, that was what I was thinking of. I also have something else to say. Let’s go to the control room.”
Complaints that followed.
“Ugh. Professor Carios would be great. Even though I killed two people, the academy stepped in and protected me. Is this why a person without fame will live in sorrow?”
“Shh! Be quiet, boss. You said you would never say this out of your mouth.”
“Right. It’s better to be careful if possible. If rumors spread for no reason, we will be in trouble too.”
The rest of the executives also rushed out of the conference room. The inside quickly became quiet. I stayed alone and touched my forehead.
“It’s been a month…”
Weaker discipline than expected.
Other executives may not know, but for me it was something to be delighted with. It was fortunate that there were no major variables to Karios. I couldn’t defend anything for fear of being criticized for covering my friend, but I don’t know how much my heart was pounding when the opinion of permanently depriving me of my professorship was insisted.
It’s a month anyway.
Of course, that substitute professor is Carolyn.
Why did he select a rookie professor he had never even heard of?
“under······”
A sigh came out of my mouth.
Of course, he wasn’t ignoring Caroline. However, the 「Assignment agency event」 at the beginning of the semester bothered me.
Offensive magic spell assignments given to students before midterm exams.
Here, Dustin, the son of an aristocratic family, entrusts the magic formula he could not solve to an outsider and completes the task in an unfair way. Rinse Dustin’s mind off and make sure he never cheats again.
It was planned to be like the original, but a variable that suddenly occurred.
At this rate, Dustin’s assignments would go unnoticed, and he would continue to cheat.
This is because there is no way Carolyn, a rookie professor, can find a loophole in the assignment. Besides, it was clear that even if they found it, they would not be able to take any action.
In other words, since he was a Karios class, he was able to admonish Dustin, but other professors from commoners couldn’t even shout. Rather, he must have taken the money behind him or the duduk.
Although it may not seem like a big deal on the surface, it was a problem that had to be dealt with.
It’s obviously an incident in a novel, and a small variable could have resulted in a huge handshake.
As for the way to solve the 「Task agent case」… I’ll have to step in again.
Fushik – A laugh flowed from the corner of his mouth.
I’m not some kind of Karios scumbag, I’m solving all the problems that Karios couldn’t handle, starting with the alcohol bill and Kataracha.
If that’s the case, you’re envisioning Karios as a finished munchkin.
“What are you doing now that you regret it…”
The novel has already been completed.
I am just a writer who changes the fate that has been decided.
I stopped complaining about nothing and left the conference room. I was about to go back to the office, but a female wizard blocked my way. This time it was Narsha.
Narsha said with her arms crossed.
“I thought he was sent to the Ministry of Magic because he didn’t come out alone. It’s really not your fault is it? Tell me honestly, is that a lie?”
Cheer. Narsha’s sharp gaze caught on. It was a look that I knew from the beginning.
Anyway, why is Narsha in front of the conference room?
Didn’t return to the magic tower earlier, have you been waiting?
······Why is he me?
“Why are you here? I hope you waited for me.”
I looked at the clock hanging in the meeting room.
A little past noon.
It was time to eat. What… I want to buy you a meal like last time, but?
I turned my gaze to Narsha again.
Did you think similarly to me?
Narsha, quite embarrassed, denied it with gibberish.
“What are you talking about, really? Don’t get me wrong. Because it’s annoying.”
He snorted as if it was nothing.
“Do you think I’ve been waiting to eat with you? really never And I already ate. It’s also very thick. So never, never misunderstand-”
“I didn’t say anything.”
The lengthy explanation was cut with a single knife.
I left the dumbfounded Narsha behind and came out of the building. Bum-bak- The sound of angry footsteps chased behind my back. Before I knew it, Narsha, who was standing next to me, glared at me with a disgusted face.
“hey. People are talking, where are you going?”
“The office.”
“no.”
A stern reply.
Only then did I move my gaze to Narsha. Narsha said in a slightly subdued voice.
“There is a project meeting. If you fall for it again, I’ll notice.”
Narsha, the person who recruited me and the team leader.
I heard that there was a meeting yesterday and the day before yesterday, but when I was absent twice in a row, the team members seemed to stare at me. That’s why I waited in front of the conference room.
Originally, I was going to meet Yerina.
I have to attend a meeting soon. I didn’t make a definite appointment with Yerina, and it was my duty to take responsibility for the task I was entrusted with until the end.
I asked nonchalantly.
“When do you start?”
“now. It started two minutes ago to be exact.”
“Then let’s go.”
I turned towards the magic tower. Hesitation- Narsha, who had stopped walking, belatedly followed. As if he wasn’t curious at all, he asked quietly.
“So what did Karios do wrong?”
“it is a secret.”
“In addition? Well, let me tell you something shamefully.”
protruding lips.
Why do you want to joke around like this today?
“Give me the money and I’ll tell you.”
“Oh how much? I got paid yesterday, so I have a lot of money.”
“Two million per.”
“······done. Fuck it.”
＊＊＊
A cafe near the academy.
Yerina, who sat in a corner seat, elegantly drank a sip of coffee. Then I looked at the clock in the cafe. The hour hand was past 12:30.
It’s been 2 hours since I texted you.
Yerina stared into the void and spoke quietly.
“Have you got an answer yet?”
“······yes. It is still.”
Jake’s voice came right behind him.
Big- Clearing his throat, Jake cleared his throat.
However, as if he thought this was not the case, he poked his head out to Yerina’s seat.
“If this is caught, it is our punishment. The atmosphere in the Ministry of Magic is not good though-”
“You’re just borrowing it for a moment. They even change the car in return, please understand me just once~”
“I can’t help it. Only until 1:00.”
A mobile orb carried by agents.
But now, Yerina’s GMS (Special mana System) is installed. In a word, it was like Yerina’s crystal ball.
“This person too. I sent a text and still no reply.”
Just now.
I sent Leonard a text asking to see the list of medicines and his face. 30 minutes later, he left a message that he would wait at a nearby cafe.
It’s already been 2 hours, but there was not a word of reply.
He must have gone to work at the academy.
“·······”
Yerina blankly stared at the teacup. His face was reflected on the black coffee. The eyes, nose, and mouth all looked the same, except for the blue hair. Like everyone else, it had a normal color.
Yerina murmured softly.
“I really want to say something today…”
Identity confused over the course of a few days.
The feeling of being torn between friendship and love.
The cause of the chaos was Leonard. From the time he cut his hair, from the time he appeared at the nursery school, strangely, Leonard had a crush on him. It kept lingering in my mind. I even wanted to see it.
All these changes, however, were not new.
several months ago.
When I made an illegal potion with him, I experienced similar emotions. I also wondered if he might like Leonard.
However, the confusion that disturbed the mind was nothing but vain winds. In less than a day, he regained his identity again.
So I thought it would be the same this time, but I thought it was a feeling that would pass like the wind…
The emotions that stayed in place continued to wander inside and gradually grew thicker. Now, I think of Leonard more often than Jeniel.
An ever-increasing confusion.
So I was going to come out today.
I tried to reveal my identity, draw a line to myself at the same time, and get him out of my mind.
However, the actual party does not appear.
“Ehh…”
Yerina let out a deep sigh.
I’m not sure if it’s because I’m sorry for this, or if it’s a sigh of relief… maybe it’s scary
Because telling a hidden secret is difficult for anyone. Besides, homosexuality is forbidden by imperial law.
Because the person I thought of as a good colleague or friend might leave me because of this incident.
······Should I just say no?
It was a time when my head hurt from deep worry.
I could hear the conversation of the female students in the seat next to me. It was a very excited voice as if I had come to an amusement park.
“Hey, did you guys hear that rumor? Are you recruiting security guards for this festival? Professor Leonard applied for it.”
“really? really?”
“Did you not know? You didn’t come to Haselin Cafe because of that. Go and apply for the security guard.”
“Hey, why are you saying that now!”
Two female students suddenly ran out of the cafe. It was a sprint that rivaled that of a track and field athlete, which could not have been possible with her slender ankles.
Either way, the conversation between the students continued.
“Hehe. I already applied.”
“I also applied right after the student council members told me about it.”
“I hear that it’s a two-person team, but if you’re lucky, you won’t be working alone with Professor Leonard. If it were a lifeguard, I would try a test ride, but if the two of us ride a duck boat alone, it’s really…”
“Wow… just imagining it makes my heart stop…”
Erina looked at him gently.
be a security guard Well, there was no magician more suited to safety than Leonard. The modifier is the best defense mage in the empire.
By the way, Leonard works as a festival security guard.
I’m bored. Shall I apply?
“Hmm······”
Yerina pursed her lips and touched her chin.
Anyway, the pharmaceutical invention project is still far from starting, and that doesn’t mean there are other research subjects.
Moreover, as the students say, if you ride a duck boat with Leonard alone, you will be able to say something you couldn’t convey today.
Originally, I was going to enjoy the festival with the agents.
I need to revise my plan.
“Go now.”
“yes? It’s not even 1 o’clock yet.”
“It doesn’t matter~”
Yerina got up from her seat and headed to the student council room.
＊＊＊
next day.
The student council room on the 3rd floor of the Zenith Hall.
“I’m here to support the festival safety staff.”
“sorry. It’s already over. I will only accept sincerity.”
“yes? Ah… I forgot to take a lecture to apply for this…”
“I want to accept it, but even if the number of people is exceeded, it is greatly exceeded, so we can’t accept any more. Hurry up and get your attendance acknowledged.”
The student council president, Selina, responded kindly to the applicants. Eventually, Selina’s artificial smile faded as she disappeared from sight.
Security guard applicants come flooding in every hour.
I don’t know how many times I’ve been rejected today. He smiled so much that his clown got cramps. Selina said, massaging her cheeks gently.
“Oh, it’s hard. Is Biden still there?”
“I’m leaving now!”
Just then, Biden ran to the door holding a sign. There was a phrase written that they would no longer accept security guard applicants.
“Where do I put it?” “Here at the door.”
A festival safety officer who had a very short supply of applicants until yesterday.
I wondered if there would be a lack of staff, but Jeniel applied for Leonard’s share, and Selina did not miss this golden opportunity. The student council executives spread word of mouth. It was a kind of viral marketing.
This is because Leonard’s popularity and influence are beyond imagination.
At the beginning of the first semester, a fact that has already been proven through the mt student council booth.
In addition, at the same time as his participation, the number of applicants for the safe return service temporarily increased significantly. Of course, when it became known that Leonard would not take her, the application was canceled as if it had never happened.
elaborate
His influence was not limited to women. He exerted a great influence on people of all ages.
The proof is the hairstyle.
When Leonard, who was long-haired, had pomade hair, the male students at the academy imitated him in unison as if they were weaving. I cut off my hair and brushed it over.
Just looking at the student council right now, that was the case.
Biden, Pellio, Rochelle, Kitz, etc. Both had pomade hair. However, no one was as good a match as Leonard.
Selina looked at Biden with pity.
“Biden. Did you cut your hair?”
“yes? yep that’s right how about it? it’s okay?”
“Well… it’s not to the extent that I can’t see with my eyes open. Let’s go in.”
Selina went into the student council room with Biden. Inside, the student council executives were gathered, and soon a safety officer placement meeting began.
Kitz reported the current situation.
“There are 30 booths in total. A total of 70 safety agents were recruited. There are enough applicants, so I think it’s okay to place three security guards in large facilities.”
“Hmm… that’s not bad.”
Large-scale facilities include roller coasters, ferris wheels, circus venues, and mini zoos. It seemed like it would be perfect to place three people here and the rest in two places. Selina turned the cooking pen.
“Now all that’s left is who to place where… First of all, let’s put Professor Leonard with Researcher Jeniel.”
About 50 people heard about it and applied for security guard positions. In a word, it was the same as applying to see Professor Leonard.
It was clear to the eyes what would happen if they and Professor Leonard got involved. It was clear that he would be openly embarrassed.
I’m sorry for spreading rumors without permission, but that would be a very big disrespect.
Other executives agreed with Selina.
“I guess that’s right. Otherwise, you will be very uncomfortable.”
“Besides, there is a possibility that you will not do your job properly.”
“Right. If Jeniel-sama couldn’t do it, a strong student council executive like me would-”
“Write. Aren’t you going to play tricks again?”
Selina rammed the executive’s head. I gave him some education, but there was a kid who still couldn’t come to his senses. That’s why Won… Where can I put Leonard-sama?
It was at that time that Selina shook her head.
Looking at the booth layout map, Katz said.
“Then how about this one? Place Professor Leonard in the least crowded place. In the case of the merry-go-round and Tarot House, the distance from other facilities is close, so you might be busy watching Professor Leonard rather than watching the booth.”
“Oh, good idea.”
Selina flashed a thumbs up. Then, I carefully examined the booth layout map.
Let’s see…
The booth with the least number of people is… Yes. The haunted house is perfect.
Leonar-sama and Jeniel-sama should be placed here .
