I’m Just an Ordinary Clown at the Academy chapter 107

107 – Disciplinary Committee 6

Behind Darun, who initiated the conversation, were more than ten people armed with swords, staffs, and bows.

Being cautious without reaching out recklessly or revealing your name is a natural behavior.

The club representatives and professors nodded, agreeing with my words.

“As Loki said, being cautious in such a situation is natural. I would even like to commend the caution.”

“When he approached and spoke. Not ignoring and engaging in conversation itself can be seen as an excessive courtesy.”

“But why did Darun approach Loki with armed students?”

“I don’t know that either. But it definitely wasn’t for a good reason.”

As all the professors sided with me, a faint sound of clapping could be heard from the side.

Words have the power to move a person’s heart.

Knowing this, I acted in a way that would make the people over there focus and immerse themselves in my words.

“Everything Senior Da-run said is true!”

The people watching were so surprised that they quickly and cleanly acknowledged Da-run’s words, capturing their attention.

“But think about it logically, everyone.”

I prompted the listeners to think for themselves.

“Ignoring the senior’s greeting and using a fake name? Of course, if we judge it based on right or wrong, it’s obviously not the right thing to do.”

If I were to directly say that someone, like Da-run, did something wrong, the listeners wouldn’t think deeply about it.

“But do you think there is a reason for more than ten seniors to attack me together?”

And by throwing this question out and not speaking for a while, the people who were focused on my words would either wait for what I would say next or ponder the answer to the question I posed.

“Why did you approach Loki and bring armed students with you?”

The question from the professor in charge of the disciplinary committee was directed at Da-run,

and the gaze of the club representatives and professors also turned towards Da-run.

“Well…”

Da-run opened his mouth, trying to say something, but in the end, he couldn’t find the right words. He closed his mouth.

No matter how much he thought, he couldn’t come up with a counterargument.

He was trying to argue that I started the conflict by ignoring the greeting and using a fake name, but I blocked all of that.

“Da-run knows.”

That I did those things not to be cautious, but to provoke.

But even though he knew it in his head, it was difficult for him to say it out loud.

It is only natural to think that when there are more than ten armed students, no one would dare to provoke them. They were obviously on guard.

Silence hung in the air. The professor in charge of the disciplinary committee sighed deeply upon seeing Daroon, who remained silent and said nothing.

“Haah… So, you threatened first, ignored the greeting, and used a fake name, and then ordered other students to attack Loki?”

“N-No, that’s not what happened!”

Now it was confirmed that Daroon had started the altercation. Perhaps realizing that he shouldn’t reveal this, Daroon denied the professor’s words.

“Then, did Loki attack first?”

If Daroon were to claim that I attacked first, it would be quite amusing, but Daroon wasn’t that foolish.

“No, that’s not it. Actually…”

I was also curious.

What would Daroon say in this situation?

“My friends saw Loki’s actions and thought that I was insulted, so they attacked Loki without giving me a chance to stop them!”

So, Daroon was trying to shift all the blame onto my subordinates.

It’s true that if Daroon and I were fighting, it would make sense, but there was no one here before the fight started.

There would be no evidence either. It seemed like they were trying to use this as an advantage.

“Could it be that Daroon is an idiot?”

It wasn’t meant as a mockery, but a genuine question.

The statement that Daroon wouldn’t be that foolish was now cancelled.

“Could it be that Daroon forgot what happened afterwards?”

I quickly turned my mind, wondering if I had missed something, but I couldn’t understand that guy’s thoughts at all.

If Daroon really did forget and said those words, it was somewhat admirable.

“Ah~ To boldly step in and attack on behalf of the senior being insulted! Truly remarkable subordinates, or should I say, friends.”

I applauded Da-run’s foolishness, acknowledging it, but Da-run just smirked. He ignored me.

Now, when I was about to bring that up. Someone tugged at the hem of my clothes.

There was only one person in the vicinity who could tug at my clothes.

“Sephia, do you have something to say to me?”

“What are you thinking of doing?”

I whispered in a small voice so that only Sephia, sitting next to me, could hear, and Sephia also whispered back, making sure only I could hear.

“Da-run, that guy is trying to turn all the subordinates against me now. Are you just going to stand there like a fool?”

Unlike her harsh words, Sephia’s pupils were trembling as if they could overflow at any moment.

Did she forget about that?

No, Sephia couldn’t be as foolish as Da-run…

“If you receive disciplinary action here…”

So that’s what happened.

Looking at Sephia’s trembling voice and shoulders, I realized why Sephia might have forgotten about it.

It seemed like Sephia was so worried that she couldn’t even think calmly now. Perhaps she was afraid that I might face disciplinary action.

“Even if I face disciplinary action here, Sephia won’t suffer any harm, so don’t wor…”

“Are you saying that now?”

Sephia interrupted me and pinched my side.

It was more ticklish than painful.

“I’m sorry. It was just a joke. I’ll finish it as quickly as possible so that Sephia doesn’t have to worry.”

“I wasn’t particularly worried….”

She pouted her lips and gently stroked Sepia’s murmuring head.

Furthermore, there was another reason to finish quickly.

Because Johanna had just started sending her a cold gaze from behind.

“Just drink some tea like earlier and wait….”

I tried to take out tea from the space, but for some reason, there was none.

I thought about the reason carefully.

“Oh, right. I drank it all when I was with Johanna earlier.”

I scratched my head, feeling perplexed.

I guess I have to go buy some tea after school.

“After the disciplinary committee, let’s drink together.”

Leaving those words for Sepia, I slowly walked to the place where everyone could see the best.

“I will submit this video as evidence.”

The editor, with surprised eyes, looked at me when he heard the word “video.”

In my hand was the camera that Elysia Professor handed me when she hit me with a flashbang.

Elysia Professor didn’t say anything else, but I believe she understood what I wanted.

When I activated the camera, a large screen, like the one in a movie theater, appeared in the air.

“What’s that?”

“It looks like the screen we used during the practical exam last time.”

Suddenly, when a large screen appeared in the air and everyone started buzzing noisily.

The video began.

Silence continued.

* * *

“”””…………””””

Club representatives, academy professors, special class students—all gazed at the screen with rapt attention, captivated by the scenes unfolding.

In this space where the disciplinary committee convened, the only sound was what emanated from the video.

[Haahaaap!]

On the screen, a second-year student brandished a sword at someone.

No, not just that student, but other second-year students swung swords, shot arrows, or cast spells towards someone.

Yet, both weapons and magic failed to touch anyone. They struck the innocent air.

With hands in their pockets, effortlessly evading all incoming attacks.

Perhaps it was the noticeable white mask and the flowing red cape with every movement, or maybe a pre-written script and actors performing a theatrical play.

Avoiding the attacks of the second-year students by a mere sheet of paper.

It felt like watching a rehearsed play where every attack narrowly missed its mark.

Although every attack missed by just a sheet of paper,

There was no sense of disappointment.

How significant that one sheet of paper was.

Everyone watching the video here could understand.

[Huaaahaaap! Haahaaap!]

The breath of the attacking second-year students became increasingly chaotic, contrasting with the voice of the person effortlessly evading all attacks, which remained unwavering.

When everyone was marveling and staring absentmindedly.

In a different sense, there were those who were staring at the video, lost in thought.

“What on earth is that!”

Da-run, while looking at the screen showing the previous situation, smirked and ground his teeth.

I haven’t seen the process of installing the camera or the appearance of the installed camera!

The only fortunate thing was that the subordinates were captured attacking him, and the part where he ordered the attack was not recorded.

“You fool.”

Da-run was momentarily confused but rather thought it was a stroke of luck.

Using this video, I can redo what I said earlier…

“Wait.”

Wait.

Just a moment.

Could it be?

As time passed, Da-run’s face began to turn pale due to anger.

He remembered his actions and words that he momentarily forgot due to anger when he saw the video.

“Wait…”

Da-run instinctively tried to say stop the video, but,

[Use the power artifact!!!!!]

More quickly, the scene of him shouting at his subordinates to attack using the artifact appeared in the video.

“”””…………..””””

With his mouth slightly agape, Loki looked at the trembling Darun and pondered.

Could that idiot really have forgotten it for real?
