Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death

John’s thinking stopped.

Before the sorceress said ‘next student’, John spoke quickly.

“Wait a minute. Can I try this again?”

“It should be the same.”

“I’m curious… . Does it matter if I mix it?”

“Well, it doesn’t matter… This must be a bit big to mix with your hands?”

It was a bit of a worry.

Yohan swept the cards from the table with skillful hands. Then, he secretly hid the three cards he had drawn in his sleeve.

John had a theory.

Hidden is that it should not be opened.

The fact that he was reincarnated is literally a card he wants to hide. Because it was the basis of the advantage he had now.

Chow chow chow chow-

John quickly shuffled the cards and laid them out again. I didn’t deliberately put it down neatly like the sorceress. The cards had to be laid out crookedly so that they wouldn’t be discovered that they had taken them out of their sleeves.

Then John turned chapter 3 over again.

The sorceress smiled.

“Trust the grown-ups, Yonsuk-ah.”

“uh… ?”

It was amazing. The cards John turned over were the same as before, even the order.

A snake crawling out of the ground.

A monk walking blindfolded under the sun.

Yeonliji tree with two trunks connected to each other.

‘how?!’

It was clearly a card he hid in his sleeve.

Are there two pairs of cards with the same picture?

Even so, it cannot explain why the cards are laid out in the same order.

John habitually calculated the probability.

Excluding the 3 cards John stole, there are 77 cards left.

Even if there were two cards with the same picture, the probability that they would come out in the same order as before is one in 440,000.

One forty-four thousandth.

i.e. 0.0002%.

It is six times more difficult than pulling a stipple from the first round in seven poker. This can never be a coincidence.

But this time too, the sorceress misunderstood John’s expression.

“I don’t think you like the word ‘trick’. But you don’t have to take it so sensitively. I just pick one word out of people and tell them.”

“… Usually, what words do people hear?”

The amount she received from the academy every year in the name of aptitude test was quite good. Thanks to her, she was able to show more kindness.

“Variety. Usually, objects or creatures such as knives, trees, water, or hair come out. If that happens, it means that the work and aptitude to be close to it are right. If a knife comes out, a prosecutor, if a hair comes out, it’s like a hairdresser.”

“Well.”

“Or it could be an adjective like ‘courage’ or ‘smartness,’ or something about action, like ‘running’ or ‘speech’. You must be number three.”

Pirallo said, brushing back his hair that had been swept forward.

“Well, it would be unfair for you to say that one card like this determines the course of your life. But it’s not like your destiny, it’s literally your aptitude. What you can do well.”

While John kissed his lips, the wizard looked behind him. The line was still long. She spoke quickly to conclude the conversation.

“Even if your aptitude came out as ‘cheating your eyes’, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you live by deceiving someone. It doesn’t mean you’re a liar or a cheater. So don’t worry too much and just take it as advice. Like a hint of life.”

“Are those hints coming from the wizard’s intuition?”

The wizard was a bit surprised by the kid’s vocabulary.

“Well, it’s a gut feeling… . I call the card hand you drew ‘the card from the previous life’. It may sound funny, but I’m a wizard who believes that people can have previous lives. Of course people don’t remember that past life. But through this card, I can bring back a single word from that person’s previous life.”

“Oh my, these are cute animals?!”

The last voice was that of a young Ida. It was as if Yohan, who was taking an aptitude test beside her, asked her to listen.

“If that’s the case, then my aptitude is—”

John glanced at the open cards on her desk. Again, three cards revealed a picture. The pictures drawn there were a bear cub, a rabbit, and a squirrel.

“- Cute? Is it cute?!”

Ida’s voice was exasperated. The wizard who looked at male students’ aptitudes and the wizard who looked at female students’ aptitudes were different. In front of the 17-year-old girl’s face full of expectations, the old wizard felt ashamed.

“Well… , that’s what-”

“Whoever he is, he must be lucky to have a bride like me. right?”

“yes?”

“Because cute wins everything in the end.”

“that… I don’t know if I win or lose… Of course, if you get a cute student-like bride, you’re lucky, but-“

As the male wizard’s words were added, Ida’s tension hit the upper limit.

“Did you hear me, brother? Show me a little bit.”

“… Say those words to your husband after you get married. And don’t look this way.”

“huh. well, really What do the ‘little kids’ know?”

The wizard who took Ida’s aptitude test was a man in his 50s. The grizzled gray hairs made me feel old rather than old.

The fact that the back of the cards has the same pattern and three cards are turned upside down. And, judging by the tone of the picture on the front, it probably looked the same way he was examining himself.

However, the magician said with a little trouble.

“But it is a sheep. The fact that all three cards came out with animals on them was-”

“Stop, please… .”

Ida looked like she had peeked into the secret of her birth.

“Three times the cuteness?!”

“… no.”

“sure?”

“… It is said that there is no particular aptitude.”

Ida was shocked, and Johann was quick to pay attention. His interest was the magician who correctly matched his situation.

“Can I meet the wizard separately?”

The sorceress had exhausted all the kindness she could give to a student. She swiped the cards.

“If there is a kite, we will meet again. Hunting is done between peers. The line is still too long to talk to you alone.”

“… Then can you tell me the name of the mage?”

I didn’t ask because I didn’t know the name. Because it’s already showing up in the system log. John just wanted to get more information about the event.

“It’s not a famous name… Call it Piralo. It would be faster to find a couple wizards who use the same spell with cards rather than names.”

John raised his finger and pointed at the man standing next to Pirallo and Ida, and she nodded.

‘They were a couple.’

When Piralo said, ‘The next one!’, John meekly retreated.

The aptitude test was over, and the deputy dean’s non-characteristic instruction was over.

And on this day, John planned to meet Piralo again.

It was because of what was written in her status log.

***

When I left the auditorium, Evangeles was waiting for John. Ida grunted as he supported the limp John’s shoulder.

“Oh yeah. It seems there is nothing to do.”

“What?”

“I can help you.”

Johann, who hit Ida on the forehead, loosened the support provided by Evangeles a little. My ankle was still sore, but I wanted to quickly get out of the center of the commotion.

A few girls were walking around Ida, who seemed to be looking for room to intervene.

Evangeles watched John’s steps anxiously.

“Just lean on and go. Are you okay?”

“I must die. Hurry up and get some rest, okay?”

When John limped and took a few steps, the girls said, ‘Are you okay?’, ‘Walk slowly.’ said etc. As John politely asked for his words of concern, he heard a boy’s voice.

“Doing a show alone, pretending to be sick… Do you always look busy?”

Mmm, now I can think of a face just by hearing this voice.

He was one of the kids that were hanging out with the jackal. Jackals were actually the jackal gang that was missing, and among them was the gang that had been arguing with at the University Hall just before. And there were three more children around him.

“You live too tired, don’t you?”

“I also saw it earlier, but it wasn’t even properly peeled, was it? I thought you were arguing with Bastia.”

“I know yeah. I pretended to be a patient, really.”

“Hey, would you like to see us? Follow me to the back of the dormitory building.”

Of course, John wasn’t stupid enough to follow them obediently. When he didn’t answer, the tall kid approached.

Evangeles glared at him and said.

“Don’t come any closer.”

“Redhead, if you don’t want to be photographed as well, you’re screwed. Do you know how many second-year students filmed him?”

“Why 2nd grade? What does it matter?”

“How close we are with the sophomores. You acted like you were helping the jackal, and then you got attached to him?”

“We are basically friends.”

“Oh oh. How much did you expect to be friends with?”

Evangeles was a little annoyed. Originally, he was careful not to leave enemies around. And there are two ways to keep enemies away.

Not making enemies.

and destroying enemies.

It is impossible to be a good person to everyone anyway. If you start fighting for no reason like this, it may be better to give the perception that you are not a match at all.

“Are you frozen?”

A tall kid patted Evangeles on the cheek. It was an ambiguous intensity between quarrel and mischief. And the hand never touched her cheek again. Because Evangeles’ hand moved like lightning.

“uh? Hey, do you want to try it with me now?”

Evangeles let out a sigh. Usually, when the wrist is caught like this, the fight ends, not begins. However, the opponent was completely unaware of the danger.

“me. To be honest, I don’t want to have an accident at school.”

“What if you get into an accident? Are you afraid that your father will scold you?”

Evangeles was dumbfounded and laughed.

Of course, if the son gets into a fight at school, the father is a great man who will come to visit. However, the father at that time is unlikely to come to scold him.

‘Even if I come, I’ll come back to give you guys.’

When Evangeles didn’t respond right away, the taller boy picked up some more momentum.

“what’s the problem? The seniors in second grade and all of us worry about you, you bitch.”

Their quarrel continued until Yohan and Evangeles arrived in front of the dormitory. I don’t mind ignoring it, but the problem is Ida’s gang.

They are the chatterboxes of the academy. I was worried that showing a weak side here would affect my popularity.

Because Johann was in a position to become Adrine’s supporter now.

Before long, in front of the entrance to dormitory C, he drew a line.

“I’m in tears, you motherfuckers… .”

The eyes of the jackal gang widened.

John’s tone immediately hardened.

“At that time, don’t worry about you.”

“Wow bastard, are you going to catch Gao in front of the girls?”

“How come those who can’t study get together so well?”

Puff- and some of the girls laughed. said the blushing claw.

“Wow, you can’t just watch all the crippled bastards.”

I couldn’t be bothered here. Not because of face, but because of popularity management.

In order to properly support Adrine, Yohan also had to properly manage his popularity.

Yohan said, feeling the stares of Ida’s friends looking at him.

“Stop embarrassing the family, go into your dorm room and solve some math problems, you stoneheads.”
