44. And. The professor narrows his eyes
Chapter 44. And. The professor is blind
The subject of the voice was a boy.
The freckled boy’s face was very familiar.
It was Kromhell Barker, who had escaped from his group.
‘How did that bastard get along?’
I was really puzzled.
Was there a reason you left alone?
At that time, Alice spoke in a low voice.
“It’s the back money.”
“Yes?”
As Tail asked, Alice continued in a calm voice.
“I think she got paid back.”
Tale immediately understood Alice’s words.
Okay.
Even in districts where there is no social class system, people bring village papers to schools and donate them.
‘There’s no reason not to be here.’
Besides, that guy is the second son of Count Barker.
The Barkers were quite a prestigious family,
That’s why he sat arrogantly in the middle of the crowd, as if he were the king of this class of nobles.
Especially while shooting the tail.
He glared intently at Tail and shouted out loud.
“Huh. I wondered where I’d seen it, so you’re that commoner who doesn’t even have a mana hole?”
A cruel smile was drawn on his lips.
As if he had found a weakness.
“Wow. The world has gotten better A commoner without a Mana Hall becomes the top entrant to the academy.”
Kromhell’s words had a great impact.
For a moment, the class became noisy.
“Doesn’t he even have a mana hole?”
“Wow. A commoner without a mana hall is the representative of our semester? It really turned.”
“Does that make sense?”
“I can’t even say hello to seniors I know. Embarrassed.”
“Isn’t this really the wrong choice from the academy?”
Alice wrinkled her face at the whispers of her voice and the cold eyes that poured in, her Ethan’s smile widening.
‘Huh.’
Tale gave a small laugh.
Here, “No? I have a mana hall?” It was difficult to even say.
What can I do if I have a mana hole?
I haven’t learned how to perform the exercises yet.
It was the same as not having a mana hole.
Kromhell grinned as if he was clearly trying to create an atmosphere like this.
But that was then.
“Then wouldn’t that be even greater?”
A warm voice came loudly.
The eyes of the students turned to Tail’s back.
There was Ethan.
“You didn’t have a Mana Hall, but did you show excellent martial arts to the point of becoming the top entrant?”
Ethan spoke softly.
“Does anyone here have the confidence to be the top entrant without a mana hall?”
His words had a strange power.
There was silence for a moment.
At that time, Kromhell continued to speak with his teeth clenched.
“So that’s what the academy did wrong-.”
“Kromhell Wacker.”
Edan’s expression hardened in an instant.
“Are you ignoring the judgment of the professors at the academy?”
Chrome Hell trembled her body.
“That…. That.”
He couldn’t speak easily.
If you say yes here, you are ignoring the judgment of the professors.
If she said no, she would be blamed for her own fault.
As Kromhell was speechless, Ethan grinned.
Kromhell’s face wrinkled in a smile as if he had won.
“This, this! How dare you, a fallen aristocrat!”
At that, Edan’s expression turned cold.
“Falling nobles? Are you insulting the Filov family?”
“Why? Is it unfair Have you tried it then?”
The two glared at each other strongly.
In an instant, the atmosphere became fierce and sharp.
The moment when two strong spirits are about to confront each other.
Jumping!
The front door opened and a person entered.
It was a man with light green hair and narrow eyes.
The man’s eyes curled charmingly.
“Oops. It’s not like we’re fighting from the first day, are we?”
Anyone can see the professor’s appearance, and Kromhell gave up his energy, and Ethan also saved his energy.
Looking at the professor, Tail felt,
‘Wow. The professor is narrow-eyed.’
She had heard that it would be a big deal if she accidentally touched her eyes.
‘Let’s never be out of sight.’
At the time I thought so.
‘Huh?’
I could feel the narrow-eyed professor staring at me.
It was neither negative nor positive.
At the time I was puzzled by that gaze, the narrow-eyed professor smiled and moved his gaze to the students and introduced himself.
“I am Jade Pennell, the homeroom professor in charge of this first class.”
For a moment, the children murmured.
The Fennell family.
As a count who produced the largest number of ministers from generation to generation, Jade was the current head of the Pennell family.
The homeroom professor is the head of the Pennell family.
The eyes of the students twinkled.
Looking at the students like that, Jade smiled.
“Let’s go to sleep. Then, let’s start with the dormitory assignment.”
* * *
A room on the highest floor of Pharaon Academy.
One wall in the warm-colored room was made of glass.
A man stood facing the pouring sunlight.
A man in front of the window fixed his gaze somewhere outside the window.
Outside, a commoner boy, an elf, and a boy from a fallen nobleman were walking and talking.
It was a joke and a very happy atmosphere.
The man sighed briefly at the strange combination.
“Hmm.”
His cold eyes turned to the commoner boy.
It was then.
Smart smart.
Someone knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
The man’s voice was deep and profound.
A word of approval opened the door.
And when the door opened, a man with light green hair entered.
Jade Fennel.
I was the homeroom professor of class 1 of the first year.
He said, narrowing his eyes.
“I’m here to report.”
The man nodded his head briefly.
Then Jade gave a slight nod and continued.
“Currently, there was a conflict between the aristocratic class and the commoner class, and Kromhell Wacker and Ethan Pilof were at the center of it. It seemed difficult to fully integrate yet.”
The man did not say anything about Jade’s report.
In the still, heavy silence, Jade silently waited for the man’s answer.
“Who is that student?”
Jade immediately recognized who the man was talking about and continued.
“Ah. It seemed to be the starting point of the confrontation between the two, but the reaction was less than expected.”
The man fixed his gaze outside the window.
I could see the commoner boy who had just been down there smiling.
At that time, Jade opened her mouth with difficulty.
“The backlash is too much. To be honest, I doubt whether it is right to push forward like this.”
Jade spoke slowly.
“Originally, Ethan Philof was the candidate for the top entrant, but didn’t you change it?”
“….”
The man did not move and did not speak.
Jade continued to speak toward such a man.
“I don’t understand. Will this event change the future of the academy and this empire….”
The man’s mouth slowly opened at Jade’s words.
“Then keep an eye on it.”
Jade immediately stopped her words.
“What kind of student is that child? How he will change this world.”
The man muttered quietly, unable to take his eyes off the commoner boy who had completely moved away.
“Look at it and judge for yourself.”
At the man’s words, Jade smiled and bowed her head.
“Okay.”
Within seconds, Jade went outside and her door was closed.
Tak.
The man who was left alone muttered quietly.
“Look forward to it.”
A student’s name popped out of his mouth.
“Tail-kun.”
* * *
“Tail! It’s the same room as ours!”
Eugene found Tail and ran over waving his hand.
Eugene’s eyes widened when he saw Alice and Ethan next to him.
“Huh?”
Yujin smiled broadly.
“Ethan?”
“I see you here! Nice to meet you!”
At that time, someone came out from behind Eugene.
I could see the familiar short orange hair and big clear green eyes.
At the same time, she has fair skin and a pretty appearance that makes you believe she’s a woman.
“Uh… ?”
Tail’s eyes widened.
Ashes….
“Mr. Ricky?”
Ricky Gord.
He was a student on the same team as Alice and Kromhell.
At Tail’s words, Ricky laughed Betsy.
“It’s been a while. Mr. Tale. I didn’t know you were friends with Eugene.”
As if Eugene was surprised, her eyes widened.
“Huh? I know? Tail, do you know Ricky?”
“Yes. We were on the same team.”
It seemed like the two of them had already become very close.
“Tail-san, please speak comfortably. We’ll be living together from now on, but it’s uncomfortable if you keep talking honorifics.”
What. Is that so?
“Yes, what.”
But there was something that caught Ricky’s words.
“You live together?”
As Tails asked, Ricky laughed Betsy.
“Yes, the three of us are in the same room.”
Yujin smiled broadly.
“Oops! It’s the same room as my best friends!”
Around the time Eugene was jumping up and down, Alice opened her mouth first.
“Then I will go see the dorm location.”
“I’ll go check which room it is, too. See you tomorrow. Mr. Tail!”
Even Ethan disappeared.
Eugene, Ricky, and Tails went straight to the dormitory.
“I brought a glass snack just in case.”
Eugene’s eyes sparkled at Ricky’s words.
“Ah! Glass Cookies! Can I just take a bite?”
“If Eugene asks, of course.”
When Ricky answered with a light smile, she jumped around saying she liked Eugene.
“Still, I feel really lucky to have Ricky as my roommate.”
At Eugene’s words, Ricky also laughed.
“I’m really relieved too.”
Looking at each other, the two smiled broadly.
Tails, not noticing the gaze, spat out her words with a smile.
“Hey. Eugene. If you keep eating that stuff, it will rot.”
Yujin’s face wrinkled slightly.
“Yai-san!”
Puck!
My back was very tingling.
