I Became a Genius by Running Away From the Academy

51 – Teacher! I have a question! (1)

“The classroom has become cooler.”

These were the first words Darcy said after opening the door and entering the classroom.

That was not wrong.

The classroom, which was filled with 100 students due to the terror attack, has now been reduced by almost half due to a series of dropout marches.

Darcy looked around the classroom for a while and pressed his eyes, which had become sore from the heavy work that had continued over the weekend.

Then he opened his mouth and let out a more tired voice than usual.

“I will give you one piece of advice for those of you who are at a loss, the sooner you decide anything, the better.”

A random word.

But no one here questioned Darcy.

“Okay, as a teacher, I’ll push you guys on the back.”

Tadadak-

White letters are scrawled on the blackboard.

“Many things will change in the future, but for now, let’s start with the things that have been decided. With this raid as an opportunity, our teachers decided to take a more practical class for all of you.”

After Darcy said that, he emphasized with circles the words, “Theory of the 1st period, Practice in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th periods, respectively.”

“Right now, the goal is to develop skills that allow you to at least run away, even if you can’t fight back in the event of an emergency.”

At those words, some of the students shuddered slightly.

“Of course, I am not saying that I should quit because the upcoming class will be difficult. …… About half.”

Half way?

The students’ expressions became strange at Darcy’s words.

Ignoring him, Darcy continued.

“This weekend, you guys must have witnessed a moment of crisis right in front of you that you can’t resist with your own skills. Even if you couldn’t see it, you must have engraved at least part of the scene in your eyes.”

Darcy said after looking at the students one by one.

“It may not be common, but it is something you can experience whenever you work as superhumans and make combat your business. So don’t say it again.”

Toouk-

“The emotions you are feeling right now, quickly deal with them and then decide what to do.”

After everything was said, Darcy turned on the projector and started the theory class as usual.

However, most of the students were immersed in their own thoughts with complicated expressions, not listening to the class.

◎ ◎ ◎

Returning to his office after his class, Darcy placed his legs on his desk and lightly crossed them.

He skillfully took out a cigarette in that state, lit it, and muttered as he put it in his mouth.

“I don’t have anything to say right now except that it’s wrong.”

Perhaps thanks to rolling and rolling, the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders weren’t in such a bad state even in the current situation.

But it must have been too much of a shock to a first-year chick who didn’t even know how to cheep properly.

Right now, even in class 1 today, I saw a few students who were visibly frightened.

Whoop-

‘Well, it will be fine. Those who fall will fall anyway, and even if this happens, those who will grow will continue to grow until the end.’

In order to turn steel into a sword, a great impact and hot flames are required.

As a professor, I would try to make as many famous swords as possible, but even so, I couldn’t catch the students who couldn’t hold on and fall away.

However, Darius knew very well through his own experience that it was more efficient to pour energy into students who were determined and determined to survive in the circle somehow rather than using force.

‘Anyway, big shock and sparks, if you think about it that way, these guys might really be masterpieces.”

This is a school year with a lot of talented guys.

But these guys accepted this intense shock and intense heat even before the semester started properly.

‘Because even that is not enough, there is a high possibility that you will receive the chairman’s deep interest in the future…… Those who persevere to the end might really become monsters.’

Whoop-

Darcy murmured to himself as he blew out his cigarette smoke.

Actually, while muttering this to himself, Darcy’s thoughts were heading elsewhere.

‘At that time, that bullet…… Perhaps the freshman shot it.’

Using his performance as a screen, Darcy recalled scenes from his memory.

A marksmanship that strikes a weak spot at the very moment when everyone’s consciousness is focused on one place.

It was the same as the one Darcy suffered that day.

No, maybe it’s because of my mood.

Since then, Darcy has been looking for that freshman.

Maybe he subconsciously found it in a bullet he saw by chance.

‘But this time I really got a feeling. Hmm, but I couldn’t find it this time either.’

Ugh……

“That freshman probably didn’t leave the circle this time.”

When Darcy is anxious about the fact that he may have lost his future pupil.

Smart-

There was a small knock at the door.

‘I thought there would be some guys coming, but they’re faster than I thought.’

Darcy grumbled, lowered her legs, and shouted for her to come in.

Kikik-

Then the door opened and a male student entered.

Seeing the boy, Darcy tilted his head slightly.

‘Was there a student like that among the students in my class?’

No, I did think that even if I did, I wouldn’t have seen it.

How to say, he was a strangely invisible student.

I wasn’t talking about looks or anything like that.

‘There are no outstanding features in his movements or appearance.’

It was as if that male student was the only transparent achromatic color in a world full of chromatic colors.

The male student introduced himself with a slight bow of his head, probably noticing Darcy’s suspicious gaze.

“Hello, Professor Darcy. My name is Doujin.”

Do Yujin, who introduced herself like that, looked directly at Darcy and said.

“I came here because I wanted a consultation.”

“Okay, sit down.”

At Doujin’s words, Darcy got out of his thoughts.

Then, extinguishing her cigarette, she led Dou Jin to the table in front of her.

“So, what kind of counseling are you here for?”

It was roughly expected, but since it was a consultation, we decided to match the assortment.

“Did you come to ask my opinion on whether or not to leave the circle?”

“Oh, no. That’s not it.”

“No?”

“Yes, I intend to stay in the Circle.”

Darcy was puzzled by the unexpected answer.

“Then why are you here?”

At Darcy’s words, Yujin Do thought quietly.

‘Aris I know would definitely try to use her position as the chairman to intervene in the circle’s management and do something trickier.’

In order to bring out myself hidden inside the circle.

In that case, this side was only using the power of the students to oppose it.

“I want to skip PE class after this.”

If you’re going to start a fire, try setting a fire to your heart’s content.

It’s enough to break out with a frontal breakthrough.

◎ ◎ ◎

“…… You want to skip PE class?”

Darcy asked with a puzzled face.

Then Doujin nodded her head with a calm face.

“Did you just talk to me because you thought it would be possible?”

“It must be impossible.”

Darcy’s expression became strange.

He looked worried about whether this bastard was trying to joke with him.

“But I know it is possible with a good reason.”

“Of course, it is possible if there is a good reason.”

Darcy said that while glancing at Doujin.

“But I don’t think you will.”

“Maybe?”

“No?”

“It works?”

Pajik-

A small tendon sprouted from Darcy’s forehead.

“Now, listen carefully. As you said, in order for you to legally drop out of class in the morning, there must be something special about your body right now that makes it difficult for you to take class.”

Cheo-eok-

“But you are not like that, and everything is fine. Or what? Are you provoking me to make some scars like that?”

“No. I’m saying this because I think it’s really possible.”

Doujin said that and pointed her finger at her own body.

“I look fine on the outside, but in fact I have a big curse on my body.”

“A curse?”

Darcy’s expression calmed down a little at the word curse.

However, there was still deep doubt and wonder in her eyes.

“You don’t look like you’re cursed, do you?”

“That’s why I’ve been living half my life not knowing that I’ve been cursed, but this time a man I met at a club exhibition told me that I had a very dirty temper. I’ve heard that it’s a curse built into your veins.”

“…… What curse is it?”

Darcy said as if he was doubtful, and Yoo-jin Do said confidently.

“The curse of losing talent.”

“What…… ?”

“It’s a curse that makes me lose my talent for everything.”

Looking at Darcy, who was staring blankly at me with his mouth open, he said confidently.

I wasn’t lying, so my words were shining brightly.

‘It’s not that I don’t have any talent because of the curse, I was just born with this kind of talentless body from the time I was born, but well, this is the level of a curse.’

Since it wasn’t that anyone was harmed, I thought it would be okay to lie like this.

“Ha, good. Then let’s say that the curse of not having talent is on your body.”

Darcy said with an expression that he didn’t know why he was continuing such useless questions and answers.

“But what does that have to do with you having to skip morning training? If you don’t have talent, shouldn’t you try harder?”

I spoke firmly about Darcy’s words.

“It’s not that I don’t have as much talent as the professor thinks.”

“Then, to what extent do you lack talent?”

“To be specific, I am not so talented that when I run, my feet get twisted and I fall.”

“Heh heh…… “

Darcy laughed blankly like an old man who had lived the world.

He was staring at me as if he was wondering whether he would hit me or not, but since I was talking so seriously, he seemed to be holding back for now.

“So what? Do you want to keep skipping morning classes?”

“No, to be precise, I want to ask you something else during the morning practice.”

Dou-jin said with a worried expression, as if she didn’t know if she would do it or not, but she would try it.

“I want to be trained separately by Professor Darcy. Is that possible?”
