I Became a Professor at the Academy

chapter 16



16 – Precious things

In any case, time does not stop and flows.

“It’s okay to eat snacks, but after eating—”

“Yes, I will definitely brush my teeth.”

Especially when you live with a young child, you feel the flow several times faster.

Baek Woo-jin smiled and looked down at Baek Ha-na, who came out to the front door to see him off.

Hana Baek, who celebrated her third birthday this year.

The child, who couldn’t even reach below the navel, chased him down to the chest before he knew it.

All the tender breasts have fallen out, and the fierce-looking eyes are slowly settling down.

Baek Woo-jin looked at the two girls standing behind Baek Ha-na for a moment, then turned around. At that, Claire, who was standing next to Baek Woo-jin, said to the two girls.

“Don’t get into trouble.”

“Yes. Executor.”

“Do we still look like children?”

Claire briefly glanced at the girl who answered second, then turned her attention to Baek Ha-na.

“… … Ms. Hana. Until too late—”

“Sister, go quickly. Woojin will be waiting for you.”

“… … yes.”

Claire was kicked out with her back pushed by Baek Hana.

After the two adults left, Hana Baek closed the front door and turned around. And he started laughing.

“Uh hee hee.”

“hehehehe.”

“… … How many times have I told you not to laugh like that.”

A girl with beige bobbed hair looks at two friends who forget their age and laugh like fools. Maria frowned.

Another pink-haired girl standing next to Maria. Idney responds by patting Maria on the back.

“We’re the only ones watching, so why are you arguing so much?”

“right. Maria is an old child.”

“you… … I told you not to say that.”

Maria growled ferociously at Baek Ha-na, who brought out the word old. However, since her face was so benign that she did not pose a threat in the slightest, Baek Ha-na rather smiled and approached Maria, crossed her arms and said,

“Woo-jin said that it would make your face wrinkle.”

“… … Is it because of you?”

“yes. sorry. So let’s go to our room.”

Maria, who was glaring at Baek Ha-na’s smiling face, finally let out a short sigh and nodded.

Idni, who was watching this, secretly hugged Maria’s other arm and smiled.

“what.”

“no. I still feel like I can’t win against Hana.”

“… … huh.”

Maria didn’t respond.

because it was true

The three girls passed through a long hallway and entered a hundred and one rooms.

“I’ll bring you something to eat.”

“With cherry sparkling~”

“… … Help me?”

Idni, who was lying flat on the bed, ordered something that suited her taste, and Maria quietly got up and tried to follow Baekhana.

“No~ It’s okay, so I’m taking out something and reading it.”

Hana Baek left the room and headed for the kitchen, leaving the two friends behind. And I open the cupboard leisurely without stepping on the child support.

She kept going out and stocking up, so the cupboard was filled with all kinds of sweets.

From there, I took out a few things my friends might like and put them on the shelf.

“… I wanted to follow you too.”

Baek Ha-na, who was taking out a drink from the refrigerator, grumbled slightly as she remembered Baek Woo-jin.

Baek Woo-jin, who always took himself out whenever he had to go somewhere. But today was different.

– I’ll be back for lunch tomorrow.

That was all.

where are you going Baek Woo-jin did not tell Baek Ha-na why he had to go.

Instead, he only gave permission to bring his friends to sleep.

“I’m only taking Claire unnie… … Kill me.”

Baek Ha-na, who put all the snacks and drinks on the shelf, pouted her lips, thinking of Claire following Woo-jin Baek.

A little quirky, but a really nice guy.

Baek Ha-na liked Claire second only to Baek Woo-jin.

But sometimes.

Whenever I saw her by Baek Woo-jin’s side, my heart would throb.

Especially when I imagined being with Baek Woo-jin in a space where I was not confident, it was all the more so. like right now

“Whoa.”

Feeling stuffy in her chest, Hana Baek took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and returned to her room with the shelf.

“what. Cherry Sparkling?”

“Shut up and eat it bitch.”

After making sure that the drink she wanted was not there, Idni grumbled, and Maria, who was next to her, lightly slapped her on the back.

Hana Baek giggled at the actions of the two.

A private school run by the Shrine of Yu-Gi.

The two were friends there.

Originally, it was a place where only the children of priests or those of fallen Paladins could attend, but thanks to Claire’s consideration, Baek Hana was able to transfer there last year.

“therefore.”

“yes?”

Idni, who was sweeping away Maria’s back, wiped away the smile that had bloomed on her face and asked Baek Ha-na.

“When are you going to tell me about the professor?”

“… … .”

“… … .”

In response to Idni’s question, Baek Ha-na and Maria, who was sitting next to her, narrowed their eyes and glared at Idni.

“What, what is it? Why are you both looking at me like that?! What strange question did I ask?”

Idney is confused.

Baek Ha-na said to her as she peeled the children’s chocolate on the shelf.

“I told you yesterday that you can open and read whatever is plugged in there.”

A bookshelf larger than the bed.

There, Baek Ha-na’s diary was filling the space.

At Baekhana’s answer, Idni lay down on the bed and grumbled.

“no. I have a friend next to me who can tell me vividly, so why do I have to read it in writing? is not it?”

“yes. is not it.”

Maria slaps Idni on the forehead as she lies down and gets up from her seat. Then he approached the bookshelf and asked Baek Ha-na while stroking the diaries that were neatly placed.

“Is this the first one you wrote?”

“yes. right.”

Maria pulled out the topmost journal and sat down on the bed. Then Idni, who had been hit on the forehead, jumps up and puts her chin on Maria’s shoulder.

Idney, who was about to say something, shook her head and opened her diary at the behavior of her friend who held her body tightly with her arms and legs like a sloth.

“Puff… … !!”

“… … It’s spitting!!”

It was Idni who let out a brief laugh, and it was Maria who shouted at it.

Idney laughed and barely managed to catch his breath before speaking.

“no… Isn’t that too bad?”

“Yeah~ Woojin complimented me.”

“… … this? Professor?”

At Baekhana’s answer, Idni widened her eyes and was shocked to see the letters that were slithering like earthworms crawling around.

How can you praise such an incomprehensible letter?

“… … The professor seems to really like you too.”

“right. Woojin likes me.”

At Edney’s words, Baek Ha-na laughed hysterically while rubbing the children’s chocolate.

Leaving the bag alone, the two turned over the diary a few times before covering it and saying.

“… … it’s one I don’t think I can read this.”

“right. How do you read this?”

“Then read something else.”

Baek Ha-na shrugged at the grievance, not the two of them, and started peeling the next chocolate.

The two of them shook their heads briefly as they watched, then got up from the bed at the same time and took out the diary in order and began to open it. Fortunately, it didn’t take long to find the readable part.

This is because one hundred and one handwritings were corrected at a tremendous speed.

As soon as they found the part they could read, they sat down on the bed again and quietly began to appreciate Baek Ha-na’s diary.

One of the main reasons these two people visited this place today was that Claire, the highest person in the temple, wanted to know a man named Baek Woo-jin who couldn’t budge.

Watching the two friends concentrating on reading their diary, Baek Ha-na gnawed at the chocolate like a squirrel.

The diary, which recorded the memories of himself and Baek Woo-jin, which he did not want to share with others anyway, was hidden somewhere else, so there was nothing to be bothered about.

For example, things like still sleeping in the same bed three times a week.

“But there is only one.”

“Why?”

Idney, who had been reading the diary for a while, looked up.

“The professor isn’t here right now.”

“By the way?”

“Then, wouldn’t it be possible to steal the notes that the professor writes every day in the study and not notice?”

As soon as Idni finished speaking, Maria, who was reading the diary next to her, raised her head and stared at her.

“Hey. Did you forget that the bailiff told you not to crash?”

“Why buy that? With just a little peek. And don’t you know that if you don’t get caught, you’re innocent?”

“What if I get caught?”

“then… … .”

Edney rolled his eyes and looked at Baekhana.

“Wouldn’t one be suitable for one honey chestnut?”

It was because, according to what was written in the diary, Baek Woo-jin never scolded Baek Ha-na for anything he did.

At least to the extent of feeding honey chestnuts or pulling cheeks.

Baek Woo-jin, written in the diary, was strangely weak against Baek Ha-na.

“Is that one?”

“… … yes?”

Baek Ha-na, who had been thinking about robbing Baek Woo-jin’s study by accepting Idni’s opinion, quickly raised her head at Maria’s call.

“Perhaps… Have you ever seen the professor get angry?”

“Is Woojin angry?”

“yes. The diary didn’t say that the professor was particularly angry when you got into an accident.”

“yes. Woojin can’t be angry with me.”

“Then let’s rob the library… .”

slap-!!

“Kyaaak?!”

“Be still!”

Idney, who was hit again without an error of 1 millimeter, howled silently.

Maria left Idni, who was wriggling around like a bug, and asked Baekhana again.

“Have you ever seen a real professor get angry?”

“Um… … .”

The reason Maria kept asking this was simple.

It was because she was also curious about the study used by Baek Woo-jin.

“Woojin… … I’ve seen you get angry.”

“yes?”

“yes.”

“to you?”

“no. It’s not for me… … .”

Baekhana kept her mouth shut for a moment.

The day Baek Woo-jin was really angry.

It was last year.

From the beginning, Baek Woo-jin planned to send Baek Ha-na to a private school run by Yu Hee-sin’s temple. However, Baekhana refused.

The reason was simple.

It was because I was so worried that I was being treated so special.

So, I was stubborn and transferred to a regular middle school close to the academy as a sophomore. This part was handled by Kim Seong-won, the head of the finance department.

first day of school.

We got into Claire’s car wearing clear glasses and headed to the office.

I had already heard everything about how to behave from the elder sisters at the temple, and I had also heard explanations from Claire, so I didn’t make a mistake.

I arrived at the class with my homeroom teacher and after a brief introduction, I was able to melt into the class.

I received a lot of questions from the children because of my unusual hair color and eyes, but everyone thought that they were nice and good children.

And exactly the third day of school.

Several female classmates from other classes surrounded her, shouted something, pointed at the ring on her left hand, and tried to take it away, saying it was against school rules.

Ring on the left hand.

It was a precious ring Baek Woo-jin put on his hand on his first birthday.

So I resisted.

that became a problem

It is because the classmates who tried to steal the ring, unlike the normal self, became a mess.

Her classmates were weak enough to be sorry to compare her with her older sisters in the temple, and that was the cause of her power control failure.

I missed class that afternoon and was called into the principal’s office. There, the parents of the classmates he had made a mess of were waiting for him.

It was noisy and tumultuous, and it was then that I realized for the first time that it was so painful to have to bear someone’s malice intact.

Terrible profanity and hostility.

Okay. I can stand it.

But.

[He said he was born as an orphan without parents, so you can tell what his guardian thought when he looked like him. Ugh, the level is really low.]

He couldn’t bear to curse at the person who saved him.

[This bitch made our daughter to that point, and she’s going to roll her eyes at what she did well!!]

hands going up.

It came right down to his face.

[Uh, uh… … ?]

However, the palm did not touch the face.

A wide, big back that I saw every night.

The black coat I always saw.

【One hundred and one.】

A warm voice that was the only one in that place filled with malice.

【Claire. Take them out.]

Caught in the hands of Claire, who doesn’t know when he came, he escapes the classroom. And a single word spilled out through the gap in the closed door.

-dare… … .

The voice of that cold and cold person that I have never heard before.

I don’t know what happened after that.

Instead, she remembers what Claire said while holding her hand.

[Miss Hana. Professor Hana is a much more amazing person than you think. And that great professor values Hana more than anything else. So when you think about it, don’t bow your head unless you’ve done something really wrong.]

I can’t remember how I answered him. I just remember coming home, having dinner, and not saying a word until going to bed.

And for the first time, crying in Baek Woo-jin’s arms.

“Is it one?”

“uh?”

At Maria’s call, Baek Ha-na shook off memories of the past and came to her senses.

“What were you thinking about that made your face red?”

“Oh, no. nothing.”

I shook my head at Idni’s question, who asked with an unpleasant smile.

your face is red

It must have been because he remembered crying in Baek Woo-jin’s arms.

“It’s done. So, are you going to go to the study or not?”

“… … let’s go.”

At Edni’s question, Baek Ha-na jumped up from her seat.

“really… … ?”

Idni, who had expressed her opinion about Baek Ha-na’s behavior, is embarrassed and asks again.

“uh. really. If you don’t like it, you guys are here.”

Leaving those words behind, Baekhana turned around and left the room without listening to the two of them.

Only then did Idni and Maria, who realized that Baek Hana was serious, got off the bed and quickly followed her to the study.

click-

The door to the study, which had been firmly closed, opened, and the three girls gulped their saliva and stepped into the place without the owner.

And the subtle scent stimulated the noses of the three people.

“Sniff sniff… … hahahaha what are you doing here? It smells great.”

“Yeah. I can’t pinpoint what kind of smell it is, but it’s a very comforting smell.”

“good?”

The strangely comforting smell made the three girls blow their noses for a while, forgetting their original purpose for a moment.

“ah… … .”

After a while, Baek Ha-na, who was resistant to the smell, came to her senses first, followed by Maria, and then Idni, who was slapped on the back by Maria.

“by the way… Are you really okay?”

“do not know. Or we can all get scolded later.”

“Hey!! You’ll be scolded by the professor, but we… … .”

Claire stares at her with a cold gaze that chills her to the bone.

“Uh… … It’s creepy.”

Idni wrapped herself up and trembled. Whether or not Baek Hana didn’t care, he sat with his butt on the chair where Baek Woo-jin was always sitting. Maria followed him.

Unexpectedly, Idni, who has the most worries, crouches next to Maria.

“Then, open it?”

gulp-

Baek Ha-na slowly opened the drawer of the study with the sound of someone’s saliva flowing as a signal.

The inside of the drawer exposed.

A notebook and a note were placed there.

A notebook that anyone can easily find at the mart.

However, the notebook was kept in a special glass case with luxurious cushions.

On the other hand, the notebook made of high-quality leather was placed in a drawer.

“this-“

Percussion-!!

Maria tried to reach for the notebook stored in the glass case, but Baekhana closed the drawer at the same time.

And.

“Let’s go!!”

He jumped up from his seat and cried out.

“No, what… … Ouch!!”

“Sleep, one!! it hurts!!”

“Let’s go!! After all, this is a bad thing!!”

Hana Baek beat Maria and Idni on the backs and dragged them out of the study, and in the end, the two of them had to be dragged back to her room by Hana Baek without earning any money.

“madam… … If that’s the case, why did you ask to go?”

“Boy. It is one.”

As soon as the two entered the room, they sang Baek Hana, who fell on her bed and started humming a strange song.

However, despite their calls, Baek Ha-na did not respond and continued to hum while tapping her hips with her feet.

An ordinary notebook in a glass case.

It was the same notebook in which he first learned to read from Baek Woo-jin and scribbled his name on it.

A notebook that was kept as if it were a valuable item for anyone to see.

“Ugh… … .”

“What’s up?”

“Really what?”

The two girls looked at Baek Ha-na, who smiled like an idiot, and shrugged.
