The Academy’s Health Teacher Wants to Take a Break

chapter 4



Episode 4. How do babies come about?

“Dale, you seem to be born with a constitution that nullifies your abilities.”

“…… Yes?”

“Simply put, it means that the powers defined as ‘superpowers’, such as the magic used by wizards or the divine power used by priests, disappear the moment they touch your body.”

Yes, if my guess is true, everything will be explained.

This Maris’ window is nothing more than glass that breaks even with a light impact without mana, and the fact that my legs couldn’t absorb the shock when I jumped from a tree was also due to a problem with mana management.

Wouldn’t it be strange that you jumped from the height of a three-story building without any preparation, but your legs are still intact?

“I have already finished checking. I’ve been testing various things on your body since coming this far.”

In fact, there was a time when she cared about that and put mana into her body when she hugged her.

Tighten your body just enough to be a bit of a burden.

However, it was not enough that mana disappeared like a ghost as soon as it touched the body.

Even with the divine power… Yes, two of the main supernatural powers in this world were terribly lost upon contact with that child.

If that’s not nullification, then what?

“Eh, ah, that can’t be.”

But despite my guess, Dale straight up denied it.

As if the possibilities I just mentioned were not even considered.

“Something must be wrong. I couldn’t have been born with such an ability…….”

I don’t know the circumstances, but you weren’t aware of your own constitution.

Hey, this child’s hometown, Leninsleev, is a poor and lawless land.

There is no way that those who have awakened the sacred power through magic or the exclusive possession of rich people with nobility will set foot in it, so there was no opportunity to realize their abilities.

“Principal, do you have anything to wield here?”

In that case, it’s enough to prove it now.

The headmaster pondered over my request, and immediately took out what was hidden under the desk in my office.

“There are things that Mr. Harsion left behind. Get it here.”

What he threw after that was a long blunt weapon.

It was something commonly called a baseball bat.

If you ask why there is a rumor in fantasy… Well, it’s a world that is somewhat similar to reality in terms of sports.

“…What the hell did that Harcyon leave in the principal’s office?”

Anything good to wield is not a bad thing.

Immediately, he hit the window of the principal’s office with a bat in his hand.

– Bang, bang! Bang!!

Bats collide one after another.

However, only the window frame vibrates violently, and there is no sign of the glass breaking.

It’s like this even though I hit it with mana loaded.

The glass at this academy is always very strong.

“Can you get a rough idea?”

After that series of blows, he leaned the bat over his shoulder and quietly turned to Dale and asked.

“What, what?”

“That you broke a window that couldn’t be broken like that with your bare body.”

If you can’t figure it out with this, you’ll have to return the senior ticket.

I tossed the bat back to the headmaster and settled down opposite Dale.

“Then… am I going to be expelled now?”

“What is expulsion? Usually, if I break a window, I write a letter of reflection and send it back.”

“Yes, yes? I broke a window like that, do you see it as a statement of self-reflection?”

“At your age, thinking about things is normal. But if you wake up without warning like this, it’s a little bit so, next time you have to break a window, write a statement of reflection first.”

“Ah yes….. That means you can use the window if you break the reflection door first, right?”

“Yes, yes, one sheet of self-reflection is one window. Is it easy to understand and good?”

“Sensei Seine. I hope you don’t teach your child strange things.”

“Then could you cut back on overtime?”

I haven’t even started regular classes, but I’ve been working all night to get used to it and run errands for the chairman.

Can’t you see that dark circles have gotten worse due to lack of sleep lately?

“Well, we’ll talk about work consultation later… …. Principal. The regular class was a week later, right?”

“Yes, I am.”

“Then leave this child to me until then.”

“… Are you saying Seine-sensei will be in charge of that child?”

“Yeah, I found and reaped it. After all, if this kid goes back to class, she’s not going to look good.”

In this world, no matter what country you are in, the respect that nobles have for commoners is absolutely non-existent.

Aren’t health teachers generally idle until someone gets hurt?

It wouldn’t be bad to have it with you before regular classes.

“Okay. Let me tell the other teachers.”

“Yes, then.”

After saying hello to the principal, I reached out my hand to Dale’s body.

In order to hug and move it like when I brought it here.

“You don’t have to hug me!”

At that moment, Dale jumped up from the couch in a fright.

After that, the way she stepped back and straightened her body made her look desperate.

“I can walk alone! I will quietly follow you!”

“…… So?”

Looks like you’re not too keen on carrying it around.

Anyway, nothing bad will happen if you cooperate well.

“Follow me well, the school is large, so if you get lost, you will be in trouble.”

“Oh yes!”

After that, a small boy followed me.

It was a moment when I thought that he was a very cute child apart from his abilities.

***

Afterwards, we arrived at the health room located on the first floor of the main campus.

It is a facility that I monopolize, but the inside is quite spacious as the scale of the campus is large.

The bed alone is overheated, and the shelves are stocked with many specialized medicines.

There are not enough facilities to perform professional surgery, but if the situation is that serious, it is better to entrust it to the church located in the school district rather than to the health room.

In the first place, in this world, the effect of divine power is so good that there is a strong perception that medicine is not needed.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that medicine is very useless, but……. Well, even so, it’s a perception that it’s good enough to distinguish whether a health teacher is malingerious or not.

“Were you a health teacher?”

“Yes. You can tell just by looking at what you’re wearing, right?”

Sitting at the office desk, Dale’s expression was quite grim.

“I thought you were a PE teacher… ….”

Is it so amazing that he jumped about 10m and brought him back?

Well, to put it bluntly, I prefer working on my body rather than health, but unfortunately, what I was pursuing at this school was a “Comfortable and stable” Activity.

Be calmer than rolling your body, moderate.

“Oh well, I am in charge of health and sports.”

And sometimes intense.

“…… Health and sports?”

When I mentioned that, Dale tilted his head in question.

“What is health and physical education?”

A pure question.

I was thinking about what to answer there, but I answered right away.

“Education that teaches you how to make babies.”

“Baby…? How do babies come about?”

“It comes from s*x.”

“…s*x?

A kid with a blank expression at my words.

Anyway, this child seemed to have lived without knowing what s*x was, even though he was from a lawless zone.

No, don’t you know enough to be an adolescent boy before coming from the lawless zone?

Even so, judging from how shy they are when they say they are open-minded, I don’t think they’re completely devoid of chastity like the convent girls…

…Damn it. I don’t know.

“I’ll teach you later when I get a chance, so let’s do the other things first for now. Do you understand what I mean?”

“Um… …. Yes. Understood.”

Saying that, little Dale settles into his seat.

I took a seat across from it and took out one of the books on the bookshelf.

“Come on, Dale. The reason I brought you here is to learn about your power……. Before that, let’s check how much you know about the basics.”

“If it’s basic, is it about magic?”

“Yes.”

What I brought out while answering was an introduction to magic published by the Empire.

This is a book accessible to anyone new to magic, and it is the most basic of things to the extent that it was used as a textbook even during the war in countries other than the Empire.

“Oh, that!”

“Have you read it?”

“Yes, I used to study with it in my hometown.”

Come to think of it, did you say that you picked up books from the garbage dump and studied on your own?

Of course, even with this textbook, it is something that is comparable to a fairly high school course, but it would be a luxury to worry about that to the chief of admissions.

“Then, I will ask you one thing after reading this book. Dale, what do you think mana is?”

“…… Do you?”

“In some way, just explain the first thing that came to your mind when you heard the word mana.”

It’s an abstract and general question, but this kind of question is the right way to find out the other person’s level and major.

For example, people who have no knowledge of mana will just know it as a mysterious energy, and knights and martial artists will consider it a good training tool and auxiliary tool.

If you followed only the standard and mastered magic, you’d say it’s just the basic power needed to handle magic, or something like that.

Then, in the case of our senior, how do we organize the energy called mana?

“Intangible energy that can dwell anywhere in all things and exerts its power in response to people’s will… …. Right?”

“… Well summed up.”

Smile.

A smile was naturally drawn at the satisfactory answer.
