I Became a Genius by Running Away From the Academy

48 – After the big commotion, time to clean up (5)

Jeobeok- Jeobeok-

On the night when the moon rose, Rias entered the deep forest and looked up at the sky and sighed deeply.

‘Whoa, I knew that, but I’m tired after all.’

During the day, no, since yesterday morning.

Rias spent a hectic day dealing with the aftermath of an unexpected villain attack.

As the student body president of the Circle, she had more power and power than most of her professors.

In other words, it also meant that when an unexpected situation like now happened, there was more to do than most professors.

Of course, most of the other student council presidents that have been there so far have just wielded power and then stepped down.

Thinking about that, he could have felt unfair enough to ask why this happened while he was in office.

But Rias didn’t think of such complaints at all.

It was a big incident that left a scratch on the brilliant signboard called Circle, which is considered a hot topic outside.

-Rias Vermillion, the student council president of the Circle, proudly repulsed countless demons.

-The potential revealed at the moment of crisis. Why all guilds want to be from the Circle.

– Rias Vermillion, a British female knight whom America trembles, China fears, and Germany envy!

On the contrary, for her Rias, it became a stepping stone for her to further solidify her own position.

After she was appointed as the sophomore student body president of the Circle, people acknowledged and accepted her ability.

But, of course, not everyone was like that, and most of the students had doubts about her abilities somewhere in their hearts.

And some of them, seeing her shining above him over her, were jealous of her and tried to pull her down.

But Rias said that through this incident, she flew higher into the sky, avoiding all the hands that were trying to pull her, and she showed that ability to those who doubted her.

“At the moment of crisis, the student president showed up, burned her mine and saved me!”

“Didn’t you say that it was the student council president who minimized the damage while directing the student council this time?”

“Yeah, I heard that the fan club members are doing so and promoting it a lot?”

It was to the point that these stories continued to be a hot topic among students throughout the day.

In this situation, the more positive news, the better, and it wasn’t Rias spreading false information in her fan club.

For this reason, the teachers did not stop the spread of such rumors.

That’s how Rias’ name continued to rise both inside and outside her circle.

But there was one fact that everyone who praised her rias didn’t know.

‘That’s actually not my achievement.’

That is, the wings that allowed her to fly were not made by her, but were given to her by someone else.

But Rias herself didn’t pay much attention to that fact.

She is not a child who only builds her ego without knowing the situation.

The other party wanted him to deal with her mine as much as possible, so he gave the information, and he wanted to save the student and raise her name, so she used the information.

Since it was such a deal, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn’t regret the action.

In other words, there was another cause that made her feel depressed now.

‘Originally, I was going to show off my abilities to draw people’s curiosity, but on the contrary, I ended up receiving one-sided help.’

I had nothing to say even if the other side thought of me as a blood-sucking mosquito.

‘Still, I succeeded in calling them to the negotiating table somehow…… What if things don’t go well this time.’

Ehh-

“You can’t find such talent anywhere.”

“Don’t worry. I’m sure everything will work out the way you want.”

“Is that so? I wish it was…… “

“Yes, it will definitely happen. So don’t worry.

“Yes, thank you…… Eh?”

She naturally exchanged her words, and Rias, who was having a conversation with her, belatedly realized that something was wrong with her and looked back at her.

“Hello, lady.”

Then Yorbi, the vice president of the student council, who stood in front of her with both hands together, bowed slightly to Rias and greeted her.

Her characteristic expressionless face remained the same even as she greeted her for reference.

She asked as Rias saw Yorbi and her startled face made her face.

“Yes, why are you here?”

“I followed the young lady.”

Rias’ mind was dazed for a moment at her proud and unconcerned declaration of stalking.

Like it or not, Yorbi continued to speak her mind.

“You wouldn’t be strange if you collapsed on the bed right away because of work that has been going on since dawn yesterday.

“Well, aside from that, what was the conversation about earlier? You said it as if you knew everything I was thinking.”

Rias let out a gasp after saying that.

“Did I just say what I thought was stupid?”

“No, not that.”

Said Yorbi, shaking her head calmly.

“There are things I saw, and there are things you said to me, so I just figured it out through simple reasoning.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, but I think I would have known if it hadn’t been. You can see it all in your face.”

“That’s more embarrassing!”

Rias said that and covered her face with her hands.

Her palms quickly heated up from her flushed face.

Rias crouched down for a while, clapping her hands to cool her face.

After lowering the heat from her face, Rias glared at Yorbi with the kind of stare she usually never shows on a podium, then said.

“Go back.”

“I won’t go back.”

As if Yorbi wasn’t worth worrying about, she said with a single word.

“It’s an order from the student council president, go back.”

“I’m leaving the student council today, so I won’t go back.”

Yorbi said that, and as if she wasn’t kidding, she really pulled out her resignation letter from within her arms.

“Why do you have something like that!”

“I am carrying it in my heart every day thinking that I will have something to write about someday.”

“Profit! That, then it’s a family order! Go back now!”

“All students here are equal regardless of status, which is the basic philosophy of the Circle.”

After Yorbi said that, she looked at Rias as if she had nothing more to say.

Ehh-

Eventually, Rias gave up sending her Yorbi back and let out a sigh of relief.

“Why are you not going?”

“Of course it’s because I’m worried about you.”

Yorbi said calmly.

However, her sincerity was dripping from her eyes and her voice.

“Because my role is to serve the young lady.”

“…… Ha ha, okay.”

In response to her consent, Yorbi lowered her head once more.

“Thank you, lady.”

“That’s why I told you not to call me lady.”

Rias said that and took out her device.

“And when I said that I knew it, I only said that I knew it. Since we decided to meet here, I should hurry up and ask the other side’s opinion…… “

“It’s okay.”

Would it feel like this if her tiger spit human words out of her mouth?

A single low voice instantly removes the gentle atmosphere created by the two and makes the space tremble.

The same chill as when she belatedly realized that a huge tiger was hiding in the bushes.

So both of them hurriedly turned their heads in the direction the sound came from.

“Because adding one more person doesn’t change anything.”

Then, in front of the two of them, they saw a man hidden behind a black tiger mask walking slowly, as if coming out of the darkness.

Unlike when I heard the voice a moment ago, there is no chill that makes the hairs on my body stand up, nor the momentum that suffocates me.

Just…… Can’t feel anything

Like a predator that lives in the deep, deep sea and devours its prey without making a sound,

Despite seeing with both eyes, you cannot hear anything or feel anything.

That’s why the two of them didn’t take their eyes off the man at all.

The moment I turned my eyes away even a little bit, it felt like I was going to be swallowed up by that man and cut myself.

“So…… “

Aiming at the two people who are so nervous.

“Why did you call me?”

A ghost clad in a black shadow asked a question.

The moment I heard that.

Sug-

Yorbi’s vigilance reached its peak, and he reflexively reached for the handle of the rapier at his waist.

But just before Yorbi drew his sword,

Toouk-

Rias stopped her by grabbing her wrist.

‘You can’t help, but you’re trying to get in the way…… ‘

Realizing what he was about to do, Yorbi bit his lip lightly and bowed his head.

Then he took a few steps back, releasing his hand from the hilt of the sword.

In this way, a space for small conversation between the two of them was created in the forest.

Sup- Huu-

“First of all, I would like to thank you.”

After Rias took a deep breath, she opened her mouth first.

“Thank you for providing the information this time. Thanks to you, I was able to gain a lot.”

“…… Did you mean to say that?”

The ghost looked at Rias, who was confident even after seeing him, and said.

It was as if he was scolding that he had only brought him here because of that.

“No, there is something else I really want to say.”

Rias, who spoke her words confidently, looked straight at her ghost with her blazing eyes, as if they contained flames.

“Mr. Ghost, as the student council president of the Circle and as one of the knights serving the 3 princesses, one of the descendents of the British royal family, I would like to propose to you a request, no, an alliance.”

Hearing Rias’ words, Yorbi’s eyes widened in surprise.

It’s because I didn’t think that Rias would offer an alliance instead of a request.

On the contrary, the ghost didn’t show any reaction and just looked at Rias.

“What were your thoughts on proposing an alliance with me? Also, what the hell did you see in me and what do you want? There are many things I want to ask, but I’ll put them all aside and ask just one.”

The ghost who continued talking so calmly was the complete opposite of Rias.

“Do you think I will accept the offer?”
