I didn’t have a decent academic background.
If it weren’t for the recommendation of an executive I met by chance, I would never have joined the company.
However, it was a temporary contract position.
Still, it was an opportunity that would never come again for me, so I worked hard day and night like crazy and was able to achieve great results.
However, the results were not good.
I was informed that my contract could not be extended, let alone converted to a full-time job.
There were many reasons, such as insufficient academic background, the resignation of the executive who recommended me, etc., but the fundamental reason was this.
-Because it’s a contract job.
No matter how hard you work, converting a contract worker into a full-time worker is like reaching a star in the sky.
That’s how it was originally.
‘The situation is completely different now than then.’
I couldn’t help but think of the sadness of that time, and that was why.
Why did I make this decision?
‘Show me the fear of contract workers?’
There is something that the Rafalte duke faction overlooked.
How scary it is for contract workers who have nothing to lose, especially those who have been notified of dismissal.
‘It’s not for nothing that we let go of employees in a good way.’
In particular, I am not an ordinary irregular worker.
He was a diamond spoon contract worker with the best family in the empire behind him.
‘It’s not my first time doing this.’
At that time, I eventually succeeded in staying at the company.
I took a ‘gamble’ thinking that these were people I would never see again anyway, and it worked and I succeeded in becoming a full-time employee.
At that time, the door to the lab suddenly opened.
They were former President Randolph and Professor Bernstein.
“My class professor! I heard the news! Fired! “I will kill these Rafalt Dukes!!!”
“Secure it, President. “I will just resign and challenge the chairman to a duel.”
Both have very angry faces.
For your information, Professor Bernstein also has a secretly hot-tempered side.
It wasn’t just the two of them.
Catherine, Liebel, Julia, Wilhelm, and the 3rd Prince appeared behind them.
For your information, Liebel was able to overcome the aftereffects of the runaway incident and is now back to normal.
“that… just… I will kill them all. How dare the professor… .”
… hmm.
The obsession may have become a little more intense.
I thought to myself as I saw Liebel’s eyes sparkling at the news of my dismissal.
The other children reacted similarly to Leavell, although there were differences in degree.
“Hey, I told you to put the black flame dragon in. What kind of killing? “It might be as simple as secretly putting on a mask and beating them up in a back alley.”
“Oh, they are all so barbaric. In times like this, you have to use your head. How about digging a trap and burying the chairman of the Rafalte faction?”
“Gyo, if you get fired, will I go to jail again?”
“Hmm. I don’t like it. “I should at least submit a petition to the Ministry of Education in the name of the imperial family.”
Even the quiet 3rd prince said this.
‘Thank you everyone.’
It gave me strength.
Not only psychologically, but practically as well.
‘If there weren’t people on Earth who took my side, the gamble wouldn’t have succeeded.’
This is social life and political strife.
Having someone to support you is essential.
“Can you do me a favor?”
“Something? “Just say it!”
“There are things you must do.”
But, after I finished speaking.
Everyone’s faces became strange.
To be exact, an expression of bewilderment.
Former President Randolph spoke on behalf of everyone’s feelings.
“Our class professor… “Are you crazy?”
It was natural.
Because what I’m about to do now is not ordinary ‘gambling’.
To put it accurately, it was close to a ‘gangpan’.
‘I’ll show you the fear of a contract worker about to quit.’
After this ‘operation’ is over.
The landscape of the Academy will have changed significantly.
By the bomb I threw.
* * *
After that day, an unpleasant rumor began to circulate around the Academy.
“Have you heard the news from Professor Banregi?”
“Professor Van Legend? why?”
“The anti-legend thing is sh*t. The magic that Professor Ban uses. “Apostle (邪道).”
“Isn’t that just a rumor that was circulated several times last time?”
It was a common rumor that spread around because the magic of the original body class could not be explained through common sense.
Everyone reacted indifferently, but this rumor was different from before.
“It’s not something to ignore. Do you know where the source is?”
“It’s obvious. Aren’t they the professors of the La Paltist faction? “I heard they’re trying all kinds of tricks to drive out Professor Van Legend these days?”
“This is former President Randolph’s source.”
“!!”
The person relaying the rumor lowered his voice.
“Did you know that former President Randolph cared a lot about Professor Banregi? However, they said they discovered something strange while analyzing Banregi’s magic.”
“Really?”
“Yes, former President Randolph is not the kind of person who would lie, right? And, there is even more suspicious evidence.”
“What is it, what is it?”
Everyone listened.
“Professor Bernstein, head of the Department of Magic, investigated the progress of the new temporary professors’ research projects, and found that Banregiman had not made any progress at all.”
“at all? Even as much as 1?”
“Yeah, isn’t it strange? “He’s such a genius, but half of the first semester has passed and he hasn’t made any progress.”
“As expected, it wasn’t anti-legend, but anti-legend?”
The fact that former President Randolph and Professor Bernstein were the sources increased credibility.
The rumor quickly spread through the academy.
“Have you heard the rumor about Banregi, Chairman?”
“… heard.”
Count Werner.
Duke Bolman’s younger brother and close associate, he was in charge of taking control of Rubines Academy.
“I don’t know who spread the rumor, but it went well. “Firing Banregi was a bit of a burden, but I’m glad I did.”
The chairman, Count Werner, nodded.
However, there was something unclear.
‘Who spread this rumor?’
It was not the Rafalte duke faction.
It’s probably not President Karak, who seems to be close to Ban recently.
‘Really from former President Randolph’s side? why? Why?’
I felt like I needed to check it out.
“Please call Head Professor Bernstein.”
Soon Bernstein, a man with a grumpy appearance, appeared.
“hahahaha. It’s been a while since I saw you. Looking at Professor Bernstein, who is famous in academia, like this… .”
“I’m busy, so just tell me what you want.”
A rude response that doesn’t care whether the other person is the chairman of the board or anything else.
“Hmm. I heard a strange rumor recently. It’s a rumor about Professor Ban of the Faculty of Magic… .”
“The chairman has a lot of time.”
“… what?”
“I see that you pay attention to such gossip and nonsense.”
“Professor Bernstein! “What kind of disrespect is that to the chairman?”
The secretary next to him started to protest, but Count Werner raised his hand to stop her.
“Is this really a rumor?”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm. I understand. I’m sorry for taking up your time when you’re busy. Please go back.”
bang! Professor Bernstein roughly closed the door and disappeared.
“I guess it was just a rumor.”
“No, I actually think it’s more real, right?”
“yes?”
“Professor Bernstein just now. Didn’t it seem like you didn’t have enough time? “Like my feet were numb.”
Count Werner knocked on the desk.
As can be seen from his position as chairman of the board, Count Werner is not an easy person.
He is a great man who has been worn out at the top and has done numerous transactions.
‘If you react like that, there’s usually something wrong with you.’
“… “I think the rumors about Banregi are true?”
* * *
Meanwhile, outside the chairman’s office.
Professor Bernstein sneered.
“It’s just like Van said.”
Professor Bernstein recalled the expression Ban used to refer to the chairman of the board, Count Werner.
-He’s so smart that he’s easy to beat up.
“The one who jumps clumsily gets eaten by the one flying above him.”
Bernstein knows.
Ban’s weapon is not just magical talent.
If he only had magical talent, he wouldn’t have been able to accomplish even half of what he has done so far.
The ability to shape the board according to one’s own intentions.
It was as scary a weapon as Ban’s magical talent.
“After all, Ecclesia is Ecclesia?”
… In fact, it was a trivial matter of social life, but Bernstein misunderstood it that way.
“Anyway, I’m looking forward to it. “Is it 15 days from now?”
Full moon.
There was still time left until the class was dismissed.
Ban said this when he asked former President Randolph and Professor Bernstein for cooperation.
He said that the one who takes off his clothes in 15 days will not be him.
There will be a storm of bloodshed at the Academy.
People who couldn’t even imagine would take off their clothes.
‘I don’t know what on earth you’re trying to do.’
Ban’s operation had just begun.
* * *
‘good. It’s going smoothly.’
I smiled happily as I listened to the gossip about me that was spreading around campus.
For reference, the one who first spread the rumor was Julia.
Even in the original scenario, it was the skill of a villain who is a master of spreading rumors.
Afterwards, children visited from time to time to report on the progress.
“Professor Malone from the Department of Technology chewed on half the professor during class. “He only talks about money and has no skills whatsoever.”
“Well, I listened harder. Professor Orchard from the Faculty of Magic also chewed out Professor Ban. Lord, shall I kill you?”
They are professors of the Rafalte duke faction.
Originally, they thought of me as a thorn in their eyes, but they got excited and joined in cursing me.
For reference, Catherine chose to double major in the Department of Knights and the Department of Magic and was taking both classes.
“Hmm. Isn’t it enough? “I understand what the professor’s intentions are, but I feel like I’m weak with this.”
Julia responded with concern.
That is correct.
At best, this wasn’t enough to inflict any damage on the Rafalt faction.
‘are you okay. ‘This is just preparation.’
I moved on to the next operation.
From Noble mtl dot com
It was directed at President Karak.
“Ah, Professor Ban. I heard the story. Hmm, this is a really difficult situation.”
“Please do me one favor.”
“Hmm?”
“Please give me a position.”
President Karak looked surprised.
“Professor Ban? “Isn’t the position assigned to at least a senior professor?”
Among the reasons for dismissal was the statement that he was not in charge of ‘administrative work.’
‘Originally, junior professors and temporary professors are responsible for various miscellaneous tasks. Although I was left out after watching all of Banregi.’
However, the duties of junior professors were limited to simple administrative duties.
Being in charge means being the ‘person in charge’ of one field of work.
“It is the president’s sole authority to decide on a position. There are only 15 days left until my dismissal, so isn’t that okay?
“Still, it’s too much… .”
“If things continue like this anyway, it will be difficult for you to preserve your position, right?”
“!!”
It was true.
It wasn’t just me who was on fire right now.
‘Of course, President Karak will not just suffer this, but it is true that it is a difficult situation.’
I spoke as if provoking President Karak.
“Wasn’t the Rafalte faction the first to commit an unreasonable act in the first place? “Are you going to stay silent like a coward like this?”
President Karak twitched his eyebrows.
However, I did not feel the suffocating and oppressive feeling like before.
It may be because the distance between me and President Karak has become a little closer.
“You’re not wrong. You can’t stay still. Professor Ban is a professor directly under Karak. So, what position do you want?”
I looked at President Karak and said.
“This is the counseling director.”
The Academy Counseling Center was a place where people could get advice on various concerns.
