I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy

6 – first win – 3

Adrian.

Except for his visible appearance, Charlotte knew nothing about him.

Not even a day had passed since I met the man.

It is a story that not even a day has passed since I saw his aristocratic behavior, self-assured confidence, and soul-piercing sharp eyes.

But it feels like I’ve been learning under him for a very long time. He was making such a strong impression on Charlotte.

“Did you understand?”

Even though it was a warm tone that wasn’t too cool, Charlotte couldn’t answer easily.

Among the five conditions he set for Charlotte, were there any difficult ones, or did they require high-level magic? Was there something about being a wizard?

no. none.

The only condition is to attend the academy and return home safely.

Perhaps he is indirectly encouraging Charlotte to give up being a wizard.

A wizard is someone who derives answers from mana. Those who walk in search of the truth.

No matter what variables are given, the premise that the answer must be found does not change. However, he himself could not find any answer for six hours and four minutes.

I was just soaked in fantasy.

The fantasy and misunderstanding that when you get older, you will grow up to become an adult, and when you become an adult, you will naturally become stronger, and by that time you will be able to defeat the demons and avenge your parents.

Maybe he’s just destroying it himself.

“ah…”

Far from winning the match, he is now unable to even answer his easy questions.

Charlotte just bowed her head once more.

It was planned, and it was a fact that even the person himself vaguely knew that it would happen.

From an early age, he grew up without even being touched by his parents. In the level measurement, I got a good fail.

If it hadn’t been for the recommendation letter from my parents, I wouldn’t have been accepted into this academy. There will be a huge skill gap between the other students and Charlotte.

It was said that even among the upper class seniors, there were very few who had experience in subjugating demons.

To transcend the talents and efforts they have built up step by step with just grudge, is an idea that would only make a frog in a well if you look at it now.

“understand….”

The girl felt the tears that had barely stopped flowing again.

Today, he faced his own incompetence, which he had been denying. I couldn’t even bear the abstract aspirations that somehow it would work.

“I-over there…”

Turn around and call him. Charlotte’s shoulders trembled.

He clearly saw his own incompetence. I just wanted to ask one more time to admit this defeat.

It was the feeling of a death row inmate who wanted the guillotine to fall quickly.

“I… I can’t catch demons.”

“Of course.”

Adrian replied. His voice had become stern again.

“Basically, the output of all magic is weak.”

The cold reality hit Charlotte.

“Also, the activation is not quick. No one will ever turn their back on you.”

sick.

Every truth he spit out hurt Charlotte so much.

I wished it would hurt more now. Then I think I can really quit magic without any regrets…

“Emotions take precedence, and when things don’t go the way we want them to, we shed tears. You don’t even have the basic qualifications of a wizard.”

not. The fact that he wanted to hurt more must have been something he said without knowing himself.

His words hurt. It hurts so much I can’t stand it.

“But even if you are a wizard without even the basics.”

He takes a step towards Charlotte, who is bowing his head.

“Even if it’s a kid who only has emotions, even if it’s a level that suits the modifier of failure.”

one step.

Another step is coming.

“Even if I really run into demons by any chance.”

one last step.

It was a distance that couldn’t come any closer. Charlotte stopped rubbing her eyes with her sleeve and looked up.

he was still calm He had the coolness Charlotte desperately needed.

“…If you survive, you have a chance.”

There is a chance.

What is that one word?

Something that had been frozen solid melted, and more tears flowed incessantly.

“Do you remember the five conditions?”

It was too much to wipe. The girl nodded vigorously, resigned to stopping the flowing tears.

It’s not easy to even talk because I’m so emotional.

“Cheo, first… from now on, I will faithfully attend…”

“You, who are weaker than anyone else, should study harder than anyone else. Be sure to participate faithfully in the lecture.”

Instead of wiping away the tears, Charlotte clenched her fists until her fingernails dug into them.

Now I’m crying desperately while showing my shameful appearance. Still, it didn’t hurt.

It was really strange. It has become so ugly, it is so scolded, but nevertheless, something blooms somewhere in the heart.

So, even with her stupid pronunciation, Charlotte steadfastly continued.

“Second… before ten o’clock at night… return home…”

“You are not allowed to play. Go home early, review, and get adequate sleep.”

Now it was dripping with runny nose. While shedding tears and runny nose, she recites the following.

“Three, third… If I run into demons… I’ll run away…”

“Recognize your weakness now. Just survive. Increase the opportunity given to you even by one minute.”

“Fourth… don’t fight, fight, fight with other students…”

“Abandon the stupidity of trying to do it on your own. Try to maintain a good relationship with your friends.”

There is only one condition left.

fifth last.

“Hey, hehe! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…”

But now the tears are pouring so much that I can’t even speak. The surge of emotion made her breathless, and she did not allow Charlotte to put her words together.

In the end, instead of making a sound with his mouth, he drew a horizontal stroke in the air with the tip of his index finger.

It was the stroke that Adrian had taught him not to forget.

Whatever the meaning, it was an unforgettable stroke for Charlotte. I will remember this stroke for the rest of my life.

The professor nodded quietly.

“I understand well. charlotte.”

He lowered his knees and bent his back. Before long, something lands on top of Charlotte’s head.

“If you keep those five things.”

Cooled down in the early morning air.

However, it was Adrian’s palm that did not feel cold.

“…you will definitely achieve your wish.”

After that short cheer, Adrian quickly turned around.

However, it seemed as if they were still next to each other. His voice was still in Charlotte’s ears.

“Huh… Hmm… Breath!”

Charlotte somehow suppressed her tears. I adjusted my breathing.

Because there was something I really wanted to say before he disappeared.

“Me, me!!!!!!”

Despite the girl’s cry, Adrian did not stop.

But, I’m sure you’ll hear it. will be listening So Charlotte continued to shout.

“Never… I will never forget today’s defeat! really… You will become really strong! That’s awesome too!!!”

“You are not defeated.”

Rather, I overcame it. twenty one times.

Leaving incomprehensible words to the end.

he left

No matter what, the next day will come.

After orientation, it was time to go back to class.

Even the students who did not show up in the classroom at the time must have heard roughly what the orientation was about.

‘In the original work, there were four people.’

The professor of the failing class in the original work was an old man who was only interested in getting a full salary. Only four students persevered through to the end.

It is said that there are only three people except for the main character.

The data of the three have already been sorted out. Since they are named characters, you should watch them carefully as if you were dealing with a main character.

‘Charlotte will be safe for the next week.’

Could it have been a gift for Charlotte, who has overcome 21 hurdles?

Fortunately, there will be no bad ending for Charlotte, the main character, for the next week.

‘I have to pay attention to my surroundings this week.’

Well, it won’t be that difficult.

More than half of the students will feel a wall and will not want to come to the lecture anyway. Others will not come to the classroom because they don’t like my attitude.

Taking care of everyone is a heartwarming and good story, but that kind of thing can’t happen.

Even if you only pack what you can definitely take care of, more than half of it goes away. I will. without being too greedy.

I opened the front door of the classroom.

“Nice to meet you…”

I stopped involuntarily.

It’s a very fleeting moment, so no student will notice it, but the important thing is that there is something to stop me.

“……all.”

As I tried to conclude my words naturally, I saw an unexpected sight.

Sixty-four people. The garden of failure.

The sight of them all sitting in their seats.
