244 – New Rector
August 10.
The Faculty of Magic won the match, and Flann officially became a hero.
While the nickname for a hero who was a knight was ‘Sword Saint,’ there was no special nickname for a hero who was a wizard, and Flan designated it as ‘Märchen.’
November 15th.
Louis, Maiev, Becky, Trixie…. Early promotion and early graduation of characters from the Faculty of Magic were considered.
They have become monumental figures that have never been seen before in the Faculty of Magic, and President Cornette said that he supports their new steps.
January 7th, two years later.
Maiev and Trixie have decided to graduate.
Maiev did not specifically announce what she was preparing, and Trixie was busy with family affairs since she was now the head of the Fritz family in name and reality.
Lewis is still popular, perhaps because he looks handsome. It seems to be the most popular after flan.
2 Years later, March 9th.
“Hmm.”
Becky covered the trivia.
After Plan became a hero, they recorded their days every single day, and looking back at it now, it was both touching and tickling.
“March 9th…. March 9th….”
Becky muttered the same thing a couple of times.
Today is March 9th at 6 am. And this, where Becky was looking at the trivia intently, was the guest room of the Magic Tower.
Because today is a very important day, I absolutely must not oversleep. No, I couldn’t sleep in the first place, so I had to stay up all night.
“Whoa…” . “You probably didn’t miss anything.”
Becky floated several pieces of paper in the air and examined them carefully. Actually, this is Flan’s habit, but it has suddenly become his own habit.
[Pledge for applying to graduate school]
“… “I don’t know if my choice is right.”
It’s amazing again. When I first enrolled, I think I attended the academy out of a sense of obligation, but I still vividly remember wanting to graduate as quickly as possible.
… I can’t believe I’m looking at these documents right now. The adults said there was nothing wrong with it, but it was true that everything was something to be lived for a long time.
As I was looking around, an alarm started ringing – making a sound to let me know that the set time had come. Becky jumped up from his chair, his eyes wide.
“It’s already 9 o’clock?!”
Now it was time to leave.
◈
10 Am.
After completing preparations in an hour, Becky began walking around the academy. In the past, no matter what I wore, I could tell I was from a lower grade, but now I feel like I’m quite an expert even if I wear my academy uniform.
There were a lot of wizards today who recognized themselves.
“Wow! “It’s Becky!”
“Show me some ice later! No, please teach me!”
Becky just smiled and nodded her head a few times. It was a sight he could never have imagined two years ago.
The academy is crowded.
It was surprising that the population of wizards had grown to an incomparably higher level than before, but it was even more surprising to Becky that the buildings had changed.
He said that the buildings were incomparably bigger than when he first entered the school, the exterior walls were sophisticated, many new buildings were built, and convenience facilities were expanded.
Becky took a deep breath and headed to the president’s office building.
Although all the other buildings became more ornate and sophisticated, the president’s office remained the same as before. Becky slowly went inside.
[Waiting room]
Becky confidently entered the place where it was written.
When I entered, there were quite a few wizards sitting in a straight posture with their hands on their knees. A nervous look is evident on his face.
“Becky?”
In the meantime, someone spoke to Becky.
“Uh, hi.”
I said hello, but I don’t actually remember who it was. This is because these days, more and more people pretend to know her.
“Becky, are you here as a supervisor?”
“No, I came for an interview.”
“What?”
The face of the female student who had been talking excitedly to Becky turned slightly pale. After a while, she spoke, looking slightly downcast.
“Ah…. Becky His breath suddenly catches in his throat as he thinks about having to compete with you. If he had known in advance, he would have prepared something else. “You completely wasted your time.”
“Aren’t you giving it too much air?”
“It’s too much! He is the representative who created the heyday of the magic department! Sigh, I’m ruined now.”
Her female student pointed to her surroundings with her chin, as if her words were not exaggerated in the least. In fact, the faces of other interviewees were also quite pale.
And silence falls for a moment.
No one spoke to Becky anymore. Instead, those waiting for the interview began chatting among themselves, as if they had known each other from the beginning.
“But…. “Flan, you said you quit being a hero?”
“Yes. I saw that newspaper too. “It’s been a little over two years now, and he suddenly decided to quit.”
“Why is that? Was being a hero harder than you thought?”
“That can’t be possible. “Don’t just listen to rumors, read newspapers, etc.”
“Why why, how was it? “Why did you quit?”
“That’s right….”
The waiter, who claimed to have read the newspaper, paused for a moment and spoke.
“They say they have experienced everything they can in just two years. And they said they did it all. “They say there’s nothing more to do as a hero or something.”
“… Is that really true?”
Becky, who was listening to the story, cleared her throat with a humming sound. When the story about the person I was happy to meet came up, my mouth started itching without realizing it, but I couldn’t just interrupt and talk about it.
Time continued to pass and the people waiting began to chat louder and louder, as if they had relaxed.
Becky suddenly thought that this atmosphere was also nice. This is because he remembered one by one the events from when he first took classes at the academy.
However, this atmosphere was soon broken by the appearance of the president’s secretary.
“Everyone gathered together without any absences.”
The president’s secretary still looked like she hadn’t aged at all. The trademark glasses were still the same.
“As you know, Marchen Academy is currently undergoing changes. This time, President Cornette also retired…. Now it’s my turn to retire….”
To summarize her remarks, it was simple.
Cornette, who had firmly maintained his position as president of the Faculty of Magic, is now retiring, and he has also quit his job as secretary. Today, a secretary will be elected from among those waiting.
“I don’t know which of you will be the secretary…. I was a very poor secretary. No, I hope you become the worst secretary ever. “I hope you all become such great secretaries.”
Everyone moved following the secretary.
◈
“Next person waiting.”
“Next person waiting.”
“Next person waiting.”
Becky sipped coffee while waiting for the queue to shrink one by one. I thought he would never be nervous because he had prepared so hard, but as the turn got closer, he was a little nervous.
Damn.
Let’s stop being nervous. Let’s stop being nervous. Let’s stop being nervous…. Even though there was no coffee left, I kept sucking through the straw.
“Next person waiting.”
After the person in front of Becky went in for the interview, Becky was the only one left in the hallway.
No, if you include the secretary who stands in front of the door of the president’s office and helps guide the way, are there two people? The secretary stared at Becky in the quiet hallway.
“… “Why are you doing this?”
“I just thought it was really strange.”
The secretary looked at Becky with a very happy look and continued speaking.
“Do you keep in touch with other representatives?”
“What…. “It’s okay.”
Since Trivia now has a ‘group room’ function, we mainly talk there. Is Trixie the most active person in print?
“I am actually very proud that Becky has set a goal of becoming a secretary. “Is there a chance?”
“If you call it an opportunity….”
Becky hesitated for a moment and then answered.
“… After all, I think you already know.”
“hehehe, that’s right. “It must be him, after all.”
That person. That person. That person.
The secretary’s light words keep ringing in Becky’s mind. What a great thing this is.
The secretary bursts into laughter and continues speaking.
“What…. Becky’s turn is coming soon. “It’s a top secret, so nothing is known yet, but who do you think the newly appointed president will be?”
Meeting the secretary’s gaze, Becky also smiled.
What the secretary said was true. Cornette stepped down from the position of rector, and he never announced who he had nominated to be rector.
Probably very few people knew who became the president, but since the information was not spread, many people were actually curious about who the new president of the academy was.

But Becky knew who it was.
“It’s him.”
The person who always becomes my reason.
Flan.
Today he becomes the president of Marchen Academy.
And Becky was going to be his secretary.
