104 – Reunion (4)
The day of the exchange war finally dawned.
“John! Hurry! “They say it’s okay for us to wear school uniforms, but we absolutely shouldn’t do that for Yohan!”
“No, I’d rather just wear a uniform…” Or just wear armor… “
“Absolutely not! No matter how much Yohan hates dressing up, unlike other men, he has to decorate at least this time! “Then you can bring the wizards!”
“Of course we don’t like it either! Those b*tches look at John like that! But we have a goal. “For that to happen, it’s absolutely necessary!”
The girls who slept with me in the mansion after visiting the dungeon over the weekend are busy taking care of me in the morning.
Lena, Sharon, and Meron, who are busy helping me get dressed, press on me as if there is no room for rebuttal.
“Really… I heard Yohan isn’t too interested in clothes or anything like that. “He is attractive because he is different from other men, but I think it would be good to pay attention to things like this sometimes.”
Actually, I have nothing to say about that. Even in modern times, I lived almost exclusively in work clothes or gym clothes. It was a luxury to show off and do things like that. Still, Hannah liked it because her basic body was fine.
At most, the only thing I had done in my life was to show off a little during the Academy’s celebration party, so I had no choice but to sit still and accept the service they gave me.
In my eyes, the clothes I’m wearing now are no different from the Academy professors’ uniforms… The president accepted their argument that things should be different.
“Hmm! It’s okay. “If this is the case, there will be no woman who won’t fall in love with Yohan at first sight.”
“That’s just as unsettling as it is… Why don’t you try removing some points now? If you fall in love with it even more because it’s so flashy… “
“Lena. There’s no use doing that. “Is there anyone who wouldn’t like slightly scratching a piece of gold with their fingernail?”
Hmm, is it fair to compare it to that extent?
This was a world where women were more physically attractive, so no matter how good-looking I was and how great my body was, there were more women than I thought who didn’t like me. I’m so tall that it’s a burden or something. Looking at things like that, it is somewhat understandable that there are boys who act like real girls.
Of course, it feels like the face solves everything in the end.
“Come on! Let’s go now. Even if you arrive leisurely, nothing bad will happen.”
“Anyway, what would professors in the West say? If you find fault with them for coming later than them… “
“It’s okay, Lena! Anyway, in about 2 months, I won’t see them again, so what’s the point? Even if that happens, our president will take care of it. Right~?”
When I saw Sharon and Meron occupying my arms, I couldn’t help but smile. I can see you running away just last night, saying you can’t do it anymore, but they say it’s getting brighter.
Last night, I felt the pounding in my heart calm down when I saw the women who took care of me.
I hope I can be with them today and in the future.

“You are late, Acting President Ivorys. “I wanted you to come a little earlier on behalf of the absent Sword Saint.”
“I guess you finished all your work last Friday? I waited to see if I would get a call on the weekend, but there was no such thing. Is there a problem, Dean Pramukh?”
“…No. Anyway, guests will be arriving soon. “Professor Terceillaise has gone out to lead the guests on my behalf, so please wait a moment.”
Perhaps because I arrived late, I gave in to the complaints of Department Head Fraumkh, who was particularly aggressive toward me. Anyway, this is a person I won’t have much chance to see after this event ends. I guess I have to accept it.
Professors are clearly divided into three factions, and the number of professors who side with me is still significantly small. The same applies to professors not only in the combat department but also in other departments.
But the number of students clearly shows that there are many who are on my side.
Among them, there were second-year students who were scheduled to join the Western or Eastern Knights, so the more I see them, the more proud I am.
-Professor Ivorys! No, Baron! Please accept us!
-Anyway, even if we go to the West or East, we are in a cold situation because we have no connections. If you give me the opportunity to make a contribution, I will definitely live up to your expectations!
Half of the first graders, called the golden generation. And to roughly one-third of the second graders.
Since most second-year students originally had a set career path, if the number was this high, securing first-year students could be seen as a feat of mine.
There are even people who have not yet said they will be on my side, but who want to maintain a friendly relationship. For example, Majella Weiberg, the heir to the Eastern Caravan who tried to rape me before.
Since she was originally from the Eastern United Kingdom, she was bound to be influenced by the Ertia Dukedom in the eastern part of the empire. It shouldn’t even be connected to me.
However, perhaps he had some kind of dislike for me, the last time he extorted money, he asked me if I needed a superior to regularly and secretly secure daily necessities and such in the Ivory Estate.
Maybe he smelled money because he was the successor to the Grand Prize? Fortunately, for me, thinking about the future, it would have been nice to have a point of contact with other merchants and merchants other than Stella.
If I had known it would be like this, I would have treated her a little more gently rather than treating her like Agnes in the slash-and-burn village. Still, thanks to him, I saved a lot of money.
Even now, I am very satisfied to see that the eastern camp is paying close attention to me. I have spent my academy life very steadily and well. There are a few people who give me money.
Now all we have to do is bring in the wizards as planned.
The number of engineers and other administrative talents is now overflowing. Although it was by no means up to the level of a duke, if we trained the talent we had secured now through the Monster Forest, we had a good chance of winning even against a fairly large territory.
Because I had been through a lot of dungeons, I had enough money to hire them, and I also secured a lot of weapons to give as rewards to those with good skills.
All you need is a wizard. Then, you will never have to worry about talent for the time being.
-Kkii Iik…
“Professor Terceillaise and others from the Sherrington Kingdom Magic Academy are coming in!!”
With the loud voice of the administrative staff in my ears, I organized and reflected on the wizard recruitment plan I had planned in my head.
* * *
“For the best magic academy and best knight academy on the continent!”
“””For–!!!”””
-Chaeng!!
Grand Banquet Hall. In a splendid and spacious place, students and professors who will participate in this exhibition gather for a drink.
What I, the only man in the room, was doing…
“Now, Acting President! Please pour me a drink! “It feels great to get a drink from a man for the first time in a long time.”
“…You seem to be quite drunk. Are you okay, Mage Lanchester?”
“This is nothing! It’s a shame there aren’t any men to serve, but there’s a handsome sword master next to her. Oh, of course, I’m definitely not treating that person like a servant or anything like that, hahahahaha!”
At the head table, the head of the magic academy exchange group, who was drunk and had a reddish complexion, was serving drinks.
It seems that the head of the 7th Circle, also known as the Great Mage, did not come from this side, and this time a mage from the 6th Circle came as his proxy.
The people around me did not react particularly well to the reaction of the middle-aged woman who had already emptied two bottles of wine that I had poured for her.
No matter how young I am, I am clearly the acting president and a disciple of the Sword Saint.
Basically, the language addressed to me is respectful, but it is not nice to see it mixed in with a tone that makes you feel as if you are subtly addressing a bar owner.
But if I openly confront this woman here, it will be difficult to sit down with the wizards later. So I have no choice but to be patient.
But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a side on my side at all.
“Linchester. It looks like you’re very drunk. “I think it would be better to refrain from doing so.”
“…Insolent. Where is the 5th Circle opening their mouths, opening their mouths now? The president has been caring for you lately, so you haven’t noticed anything? How dare you tackle such a young topic… “
Hannah Fraumh, a blonde beauty wearing a wizard hat and robe.
Recently, he achieved the 5th circle while showing a growth rate similar to mine, and was called the greatest genius in magic.
Currently, he is the number one wizard talent I want to recruit. In addition to the growth rate, I thought it would be easier to recruit him because he was not from the empire but from Sherrington Kingdom, which is close to my territory.
But….
‘How can I see the entrance? There’s something wrong with the two meeting each other… ‘
I want to access it, but there is no contact point at all.
Even seeing that his last name is Fraumh, he must be related to the head of the department, Fraumh.
The good news is that the head of the department who looked at Hannah Fraumch earlier didn’t seem to be particularly favorable. If I do well, I might be able to delve into that.
Anyway, why does Hannah Fraumh’s face feel so familiar?
She and I have no contact at all. I have never met such a beautiful blonde wizard in my life, and this is the first time I have seen such a heavy presence that seems to be sticking out of her robe, except for Aunt Lana.
But the eyes I suddenly saw.
And the way she looked at me was something I was most familiar with in my life.
‘…Are you drunk? ‘Why am I suddenly having this stupid idea?’
My pounding heart could not calm down, so I got up from my seat.
“…I’ll come back after getting some fresh air. “I think I’m drunk.”
“Well, I understand. But it’s not too late. Without the only man in the banquet hall, the atmosphere of the banquet would be too gloomy. Ha ha ha ha ha!”
After hearing the nonsense of a magical woman who wants to s*xually harass me, I go out to the balcony for a moment and breathe in the cold air.
If I was drunk, I should feel a little better, but for some reason, the feeling of being sick in my stomach doesn’t go away at all.
No, it actually gets worse.
“Whoa…” “Why are you doing this to me?”
At that time when I wiped my dizzy face with both hands,
-Kkiik…
With the sound of the balcony door opening, someone came inside.
Who is it? This is a balcony reserved for professors, so unless you’re a VIP, you won’t be able to enter…
“Hey… “
Hannah Fraumch was occupying the place in the open door.
“Ah, Wizard Fraumh.”
“…Are you okay? John… sir… “
“It’s okay. I feel a little dizzy, but it will get better soon. “Even though I’m a man, my advantage is that I have a strong body.”
“…Eh, yes… “
She answered with a certain blush on her face, then lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Knights and wizards. Empire and Kingdom of Sherrington. The two of us have no contact at all.
Naturally, only the quiet sound of the night occupied the empty space between us.
I lowered my gaze and looked at the wizard, whom I was obviously seeing for the first time.
Why? Why does this woman, who feels familiar yet strange, bother me so much?
“…Over there.”
“…Yes.”
“I’m just saying this just in case, do you remember meeting us before?”
If it were originally in the modern world, words come out of my mouth that would not be possible even with outdated work comments.
But despite this, I could only say this.
“Well, I…” I’m not saying this to just anyone. I think I’ve seen Wizard Fraumh somewhere before. Especially the eyes… “
“……”
“Sorry for sounding strange. I just… “
As her pupils flutter, the expression on her face changes from something close to expressionless to something passionate.
Well, if a man you’ve never met suddenly says something like this, you’d be treated with contempt in the modern world.
Why are you doing this? Do I want to play one of her tricks on her? She’s definitely a beauty, but even so, I’m not the kind of person who goes around saying that to anyone or anyone I’ve met for the first time…
The moment when the strange thoughts and the turmoil inside me became more severe and I was about to ramble,
-Pook!
“Hey, there?! Fraumh Wizard?!”
She fell into my arms, and before she could even open her mouth, I took her into my arms.
I knew she was falling towards me, but as she did so, the robe ripped off her front and the scent of her flesh assaulted my nose, and I lost consciousness for a moment.
What’s happening all of a sudden? Is this person also feeling sick like me?
“hehehehe…!”
Hannah Fraumh suddenly starts crying in my arms.

The moment I was trying to calm her down and resolve her worried mind,
“…John… “
“Hey, over there. Did we really know each other? Then, could you please explain first? “
“Hey haaan…” !”
-Cow!!
As soon as I heard the name Yohan Lee, it felt like lightning struck my head.
A name that has never been spoken out loud in this world.
That name came out of the mouth of Hannah Fraumch, whom I had never seen before.
“…Lee Yo-han. What is that… “
“It’s me, Yohan Lee… I’m Hannah… !!”
“Han Dynasty, just with that alone, what on earth can I…?” “
Probably not.
Probably not.
The word ‘Lee Yo-han’.
And the name ‘Hannah’ Fraumh.
Her eyes are already streaming with tears.
All of this pointed to only one conclusion.
“I am Park Hanna! John!
“…What?”
She was originally my most precious relationship in the world, and the woman I always wanted to become my lover someday.
My childhood friend, Park Hanna.
She was crying in my arms and looked up at me with eyes that always worried about me.
The warmth with which you always looked at me still remains unchanged.
Only then did I realize the identity of the sense of discomfort and anxiety I had been feeling.
