Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me

28 – Double Reunion (1)

A week has passed since I made a fatal mistake in a relay match.

The special class, where only a few students are selected separately, has not yet started, so these days, I am spending a similar day every day.

Among them, if today is special, it is a special day, and if it is particularly unfortunate, then it is not wrong.

“Haa, what is this like in this weather… ….”

Now I was managing the herb garden.

The reason why a mere student who is not a herbalist professor or worker is doing this kind of work is simple.

‘Oh no, you shouldn’t be kidding.’

The Herbology class is one of the most popular liberal arts classes.

It was valuable in many ways in real life, and the class itself was fun.

In addition, the professor’s personality is good, so it’s actually a trinity lecture.

For that reason, it is safe to say that it was the most difficult course to register for.

I just made a few minor mistakes in that class.

‘Occupational disease, occupational disease.’

It wasn’t that difficult for me to mix herbs.

Because I’ve made all sorts of poisons with various materials in my previous life.

Although it was a flaw that I never made anything other than poison.

Anyway, even though medicinal herbs are also written with the word medicine, there were many cases where they became poisons even if handled slightly differently.

I wonder if that’s why I wanted to show off my skills for the first time in a while.

Since he was such a good-natured professor, I thought he would laugh and pass it over, so I tried to make poison while pretending to be a mistake during practice.

“It was broken badly.”

Unfortunately, however, the professor was not so merciful.

I was scolded for a few words, and I was punished by managing the professor’s herb garden for the weekend.

Actually, poison was produced at school, but it was fortunate that it ended like this.

With that in mind, I was watering the professor’s herb garden located on the threshold of the mountain behind the school and managing the amount of sunlight that reached it.

“Deneb?”

At that time, someone called my name.

I was a bit surprised before I checked to see if anyone knew.

Is there a student stopping by the mountain behind the school on such a sunny day?

You wouldn’t come here for a walk, so unless you’re being punished like this like me, there must be a dirty corner somewhere.

“Yu… Yuzu?”

“What are you doing here? Did you decide to give up magic or fighting and change your job as a farmer to live for the rest of your life?”

“No, I’m just being punished… It’s hard to change jobs for a farmer’s life just because he does a bit of gardening on the weekend.”

Yuz Denbergen, another name is Justina.

She accidentally called her by the wrong name, but it seemed that she was not noticed.

‘They said they were caught, so come to think of it… ….’

At least a week ago, I was trembling with vague anxiety.

Perhaps that’s the case, didn’t Justina notice her gait?

She doesn’t have a normal gait, but an assassin’s unique way of walking, the ‘shadow foot method’.

‘I thought it was actually checkmate.’

There was only a lot of information that I had already disclosed to Justina.

From defeating the ordeal of fear in the shortest speed, it was the same as showing the level of an assassin with excellent five senses.

Not to mention, I solved one of the 7 mysteries of the Denbergen Academy and even announced that I knew the ancient script.

I even desperately tried to change my fighting style during the sparring, but in the end, I ended up using the cryptic method by mistake.

I thought there would be no point in hiding it any longer.

In fact, if Justina were to come straight in, she would agree, and then she even thought of a scenario in which they negotiated to please not imprison her.

However, strangely, after the relay match, Justina did not call me or specifically look for me.

‘Didn’t I see it?’

I thought about that a little bit, but I wasn’t sure.

I’d rather feel at ease if I had my feet go numb for no reason.

Seeing that even after a week had passed, he quietly listened to the class and didn’t ask me anything, I wondered if he really wanted to have a student experience.

If that’s true, isn’t it too much of a shame?

‘…… You shouldn’t actually say that.’

Justina crossed her arms and frowned at her as she smiled to herself at her silly thoughts.

Seeing those eyes, she was pricked by her conscience and naturally trembled.

“Come to think of it, didn’t you ask me to meet you when I’ll call you?”

“I did. Somehow, a week has passed.”

“You must have been busy.”

“Whoa, I was a bit busy. Things didn’t go well.”

For some reason, I wondered if Justina’s busyness was due to an article from the imperial family saying that she was coming as a professor in charge of the special class.

Because Justina’s expression at that time was not very good. Maybe she tried unsuccessfully to replace her professor with the power of the chairman.

‘Wait, then why did Justina stop by the mountain behind the school?’

It’s because of what the herbalist professor said, but Justina didn’t seem to have any particular reason.

“Then Yuzu, what did you come here to do?”

“She is the same as you, even if she was the first woman.”

“To be punished? What punishment?”

“Bu, bee… Not even a punishment… Boo, should I say I heard your request….”

Yuzu kept her lips shut and tried not to talk, but she soon realized that I had told her but she was the only one keeping her mouth shut.

The way she mumbled in a small way, as if she couldn’t help it, was quite funny and cute.

“Eh, don’t you have a Mathematics class… ….”

“Ah, Mathematics class. Know. I hear that too.”

“Isn’t that natural? Because the original girl and you are taking the same lecture. Could it be that you followed her original daughter?”

“… ….”

You copied it, shameless.

“Anyway, that’s right. Ma Mathematics professor dared to punish her. Dare to this body! Why don’t you doze off a little during class!”

“No, well, that might make you feel bad from the professor’s point of view… ….”

“Unforgivable! Fired, unconditionally fired! No, a layoff is, at least, a pay cut for three months!”

This child, does she really remember the concept that she was the daughter of her director?

She was cosplaying as a student and got scolded by the professor she hired… ….

No matter how you look at it, every single sentence he spits out is a vicious employer, a self-contained chairman.

I looked at Justina who was struggling and comforted me with a smile.

“If you ask your mother to fire an employee because you got scolded, you will be scolded even more. You should have listened to the class properly instead of sleeping.”

“Isn’t it a problem that professors can’t teach? Have you ever seen the original daughter doze off during Perkin’s class?”

“Uhm, it’s a combat class, so it’s only natural that I can’t sleep… Oh, that’s not it. So what did you come here to be punished for?”

As if waiting for that question, Justina snorted and nodded her head vigorously.

“Recover hunting traps!”

Recovering hunting traps, you’re asking students to do that?

Confused as to whether this is correct, I involuntarily tilted my head.

That’s also true, because demonic beasts often appeared in this back mountain.

It’s hard to get down to the vegetable garden at the entrance of the mountain behind me, but I’ve heard from Luisa’s sister that if you go deep, the monster will come out.

‘No matter how daytime it is, on a mountain haunted by students alone?’

Of course, Justina was a dragon, and she wasn’t particularly worried.

Even if dozens of demon beasts attack at the same time, he will easily defeat them without a single wound using magic.

However, Professor Ma wouldn’t know that Justina was a dragon, so it was no different than giving a female student a dangerous mission just because she was a bit dozed off in class.

I couldn’t understand it well, but Justina spread her finger and shook it as if to correct my perception.

She said, “I can see what you’re worried about.”

“Huh?”

“Whoops, freshmen are often misunderstood. Rumor has it that a monster haunts the back mountain, isn’t it pretty hideous if you listen roughly?”

“Then the monsters are hideous. A fire-breathing wild boar, a snake the size of a tree… There is no such thing as a good guy.”

“Her original daughter… No, aren’t you looking down on her original daughter’s mother too much?”

Once I got past the mistakes, I finally understood what Justina was saying.

Since ancient times, there has been a story that high-ranking monsters and monsters live near dragon nests, or rares.

Instead of serving the dragon, you can be protected by the dragon, so it’s a nice environment for monsters to live in secretly.

In this case, Denbergen Academy was Justina’s rare, and the dragon served by the beasts was none other than Justina.

“I’ve seen all the monsters on this mountain… It lies in her mother’s hands. You must have learned about mental magic in magic class, right? That magic is applied to all the beasts and beasts of this mountain.”

“Do you never kill people, or something like that?”

“Yes. As I personally brought in some monsters for the students’ combat training, this mountain itself became a monster colony.”

“Um, it sounds very dangerous just by listening to it… ….”

When I couldn’t believe it until the end, Justina glared at me as if she was angry.

“So, didn’t you say it was okay?! Bonnyeo… Rather, it means to believe in the mother of the original daughter! All of the demon beasts here are basically implied that they will never harm human life.”

“If you say that, it must be so. Then wait a minute.”

“Huh? Why are you waiting?”

I kneaded the damp soil so that the last herb roots could absorb enough water, then patted my back and stood up.

“Oh, my legs hurt from squatting.”

“Grow up your stamina. How pathetic a man is.”

“Ahahahaha… ….”

I put down the equipment I needed to manage the garden and trudged to the street corner where Justina was.

Justina’s eyes, who had been looking at me like that, grew bigger and bigger.

“What, what?! Why are you approaching the original woman with her soiled hands and feet?”

“They say they are collecting hunting traps. It wouldn’t be easy to find them all if they were spread all over the forest.”

“Well, that’s right, but… If you use magic….”

“You don’t have to kick out someone who wants to help, right?”

“Heh, heuh, it would be a big mistake if you knew that the original girl would be grateful.”

Anyway, even after 500 years and another week, she is still a child.

It’s a bit harsh for me, who is only 17 years old in this life, to call Justina a child, but the same thing is true.

I casually tried to put my hand on Justina’s head, but when I realized that there was still dirt on her hand, I brushed it off.

“… Wash with water.”

“Oh, is this magic?”

“This is the basic water attribute magic. Get used to this.”

Justina pretended to pout, but then she sprayed a small stream of water from the tip of her finger and wiped all the dirt off her and my hands.

Then he turned his back on me so as not to reveal his changed expression, and muttered in a whispering but not quiet voice.

“Well, since I’m trying to climb a mountain with someone like this… It reminds me of the old days.”

“… ….”

After hearing that, I couldn’t control my expression.

I also remembered 500 years ago, gathering fruits and herbs in the mountains with Justina to get dinner.

At that time, Liwin was too young, so he mainly hunted with elves and gathered fruits with Justina.

The days when we rummaged through the grass, made silly jokes, and talked about small things for hours.

Justina’s one word just brought back memories of her then.

‘…… sh*t.’

It was only then that I realized that my choices and actions were very poor.

In the first place, hiding her identity in front of Justina was absurd.

Can’t you recognize that the woman who has been waiting for me for 500 years is hiding it?

With a bitter smile on my lips, I walked the path deep into the mountains.

“Hey, hehehe! Please follow me soon I just had something to say. It will be a good opportunity. We will talk as we go.”

“Yes, I look forward to it.”

And then I thought.

I don’t know right now…….

When you come down from this mountain, things might have changed a lot.

***

On the other hand, Justina and Deneb are headed deep in the mountains.

About 12 hours before their visit, there was another visitor.

As Deneb monologued, there is a high probability that someone with a bad corner will sneak into the mountain behind the school on a sunny weekend.

Especially if you stop by at night, not in broad daylight.

“Kyakyakyakkak, oppa, is this working properly?”

“You mean unconditionally? Believe in magic magic is god Kekekekekek!”

The identity of the giant serpent sleeping with its body twisted was a demon.

A normal human wouldn’t even dare to get close to it.

However, there was a pair of men and women who approached the serpent, which was almost the size of a house, and tried to put on a bizarre-looking leash.

I walked quietly so as not to hear her footsteps, and stretched out my long hand…….

Clap!

A leash long enough to wrap around the Serpent Demon Beast’s thick neck was filled.

The plan was completed successfully, but nothing changed in the sleeping serpent’s body.

However, the pair of men and women giggled badly, looking satisfied as if everything was going smoothly.

“Brother, but can this really overlay the dragon’s magic?”

“Kekekekek, how many times have you said that dragons of the old era are no match for magical engineering, Grueta?”

“Yes, brother Hans. Because magic engineering is a god!”

“Yes, magic engineering is a god! Magic engineering is the truth!”

“Kyakyakyakyakyakyak!”

“Kekekekekek!”

The brother and sister, who had bizarrely white skin, disappeared into the woods with their bizarrely twisted bodies running around as if they were dancing.
