Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy - Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy chapter 98

98 – Damon’s Choice (4)

‘I’m living my life so hard.’

Ruid’s steps back to the academy were very light.

For the first time since possessing, I feel like I did something very productive.

‘I have grown up.’

It was the feeling of a jobless jobless man when he got his first job.

I feel like I am making a huge contribution to this society.

“Ruid!”

I ran into Hercy at the main gate of the academy. Sweat glistened on his forehead.

The fox sitting on top of Hersy’s head raised his soft hand and shook it. He seems to have been dragged by Miho, who sensed that he was coming.

“Hello. Hersy.”

“Dae, where have you been?”

Louise tilted her head.

“I withdrew the Imperial Mandate.”

“I know that. The academy is very noisy right now because of the official notice. I mean…….”

It has been 7 days since the official notice arrived.

By the time Louis returned to her academy, that is.

“Amelia was worried.”

‘Has it already happened?’

Actually, Ruid didn’t come back right away.

Of course, the imperial palace was spacious.

She had to rely entirely on her legs to walk, and there was no way Louis could stand it.

So as soon as she parted with the Emperor, she sat down on the floor and slept for a while.

When she wakes up, she takes a few steps, but once she rests, she always wants to rest.

…… So, it took her a week to get from the imperial palace to the academy.

“…… I expected that, but even if you are lazy, you are too lazy.”

“But I did the right thing. He said the notice came right.”

“That’s actually it.”

Hersy said with a puzzled face.

“There is a problem.”

“A problem?”

Hersy laughed awkwardly.

“Maybe it would be faster to see for yourself.”

“Awaken! Wake up!”

“Academy, wake up!”

“Stop the oppression of the common people!”

“This is not fair!”

‘What is this?’

Ruid rubbed his eyes with Hercy’s robe.

An unbelievable sight was taking place in front of her eyes.

“Because Vice President Phenicia canceled Damon’s punishment as soon as the imperial mandate was revoked. According to the principle, penalty points should be given, but the common people stood up because they just ignored it.”

Ruid asked because he was genuinely curious.

“Can a commoner do that?”

“There is also ‘freedom of assembly’ among the wills of the first emperor.”

‘How far have you gone! The first emperor!’

Ruid was shocked.

“Are you looking at the imperial family!”

“The Academy — expel Damon Kairos!”

“I can’t live like this!”

For reference, Justin was at the forefront of the rally.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a face, but I wasn’t happy at all.

“I tried many methods- but it doesn’t calm me down easily. Even commoners are desperate.”

Damon really hates commoners.

He doesn’t even know his subject and doesn’t like installing me?

Ruid could not help but sympathize with those words. But on the other hand, I felt sorry for Damon if he had bullied him so much.

“Actually, commoners don’t really matter.”

“… Is that?”

“Because there are worse things.”

Hersy cried.

“It’s harder to stop Prince Damon.”

“That, is it?”

Hersy is always calm.

However, her emotions were more intense than ever.

“I tried to use large-scale magic while saying that I had to correct her habit whenever I had a chance! She’s about to cut her own throat!”

Ruid patted Hercy as if he could feel Hercy’s pain.

“It was a lot of hard work.”

Hersy replied cautiously, blushing.

“Thank you.”

“… So where is Damon now? I thought she was going wild because she didn’t have Hercy.”

“I sent it back to her villa. She told me to stay until she calmed down.”

“Did Damon accept it?”

“They said, ‘I wasn’t interested in the academy without my close friends, but it’s a good suggestion, girl.’”

Hersy said, copying Damon’s voice. Even though she didn’t have to repeat it, it automatically played in her head.

“In the end, we succeeded in stopping Damon. Great Hersey. I couldn’t have done it if it were me.”

“… She couldn’t stop it completely.”

“Huh?”

“Do you remember the feather thief?”

‘Of course not. He’s the main character of this novel.’

Louise nodded her head, and Hersy spoke as if she had been waiting.

“I bumped into her on the way to her villa, and she punched her in the jaw for looking at him for more than three seconds.”

“…… !”

“Besides that, there was some violence. Thanks to that, it was like adding fuel to the protests of the common people. That is the current situation.”

“Can’t we just ignore it?”

“I am. It will be difficult if this condition persists. Because I can’t go to class.”

Louis opened her eyes.

Surely that’s difficult.

‘I’m going to take a nap, but it’ll definitely get in the way.’

Above all, if we let it go as it is, it couldn’t be said to have completely prevented Damon’s expulsion.

Ruid stepped forward. She approached Justin, the head of a commoner to be precise.

“Huh?”

“It’s Prince Louis.”

“No way, are you coming to negotiate?”

It was only natural that the attention of the common people was focused on Ruid.

If it was another noble, he would have ignored them and shouted a slogan, but Ruid’s position was a little different.

A mysterious fairy who only sleeps in the forest.

Sometimes when I wake up, I do bizarre(?) Things, but it still felt like a ‘natural disaster’.

Besides, unlike other nobles, he never bothered commoners, so Ruid didn’t have a bad image among commoners.

Ruid stopped in front of Justin.

‘Huh?’

Louise blinked her eyes. She was a little surprised.

It doesn’t smell. He seems to be washing well these days.

And, I felt that Justin’s skills had improved to some extent.

‘… How did you improve your skills? There would have been no room for growth. What… It doesn’t matter.’

From noble mtl dot com

It was good, Ruid, that as Justin’s skills improved, there would be fewer troublesome things.

Anyway, let’s get to the point.

“Noisy.”

“Sorry.”

Justin paused in his speech. It reminded him of the fact that Ruid’s status had been changed to professor.

“Sorry, professor.”

Justin said with a serious face.

“By the way, do you know about the recent situation?”

“Yes. I just heard.”

“Then you must know. We cannot back down.”

“Right!”

Hersy glared at the commoner who had just shouted.

The commoner immediately lowered his tail and stared at the floor with a sullen expression.

“What are you dissatisfied with? Tell me exactly.”

“It doesn’t make sense to not get even one penalty point for this. Even if the commoners attacked first, the academy has punished both sides. This is against equity.”

“Are you dissatisfied with breaking the rules?”

“… That’s right.”

‘I must have said it well.’

Justin looked at Ruid with an unconvinced expression.

The difficult words just said were the things that Catherine taught her through indoctrination. If someone asks, answer with logic like this.

“Then it’s okay as long as you don’t break the rules?”

“Yes? Ah yes. By the way.”

“Okay. I will make sure not to break the rules. So let’s break up now.”

“Yes?”

Justin was taken aback.

‘This isn’t this?’

Something was wrong.

But he couldn’t even refute what Louis said. Because it was right.

“…… Hey guys. Professor Ruid is going to solve it, so let’s step back.”

As Justin untied his headband, the common people agreed.

They disappeared with a confused expression.

Hersy asked after the commoners had disappeared.

“This, this was a problem that could be easily solved like this.”

“Of course. Hercy doesn’t have a few rights.”

On the other hand, Ruid was in a position where he could do anything at the academy.

It’s a position where you can overuse empty checks, but it’s difficult if you don’t solve this easily.

“By the way…… May I ask what you mean by not breaking the rules?”

“We can create an academy where Damon can bully the commoners.”

“Aha, yes.”

Hersy smiled brightly, but her expression gradually hardened.

“Yes?”

Ruid laughed a little wickedly.

‘Why didn’t I think of this earlier? I was thinking of making Damon the villain.’

Maybe this was compensation for using Damon.

“Hercy, have you heard of the leader?”

Let’s put on an appropriate cover.

**

Damon was sipping his whiskey at the cottage and staring at something serious.

A chess board made of high quality solid wood.

On top of it, horses were tangled together.

Damon moved the horses. He was his enemy and he was his ally.

Damon usually enjoys playing chess.

When he compared something, he tended to liken it to chess.

Chess is life.

It is a measure of intelligence.

A commander who is not good at chess is a failed commander, and a nobleman who is not good at chess cannot share his knowledge.

At first glance, the axis of the chessboard was slanted to one side, but upon closer inspection, it was taut.

Black’s pawns and rooks were all dead, but the queen was alive.

The white queen died, but the rest of the pieces were alive.

Both formation bishops are excluded.

Who will have the advantage in this battle?

Damon said softly, tapping his plate with his fingers.

“Which one will you choose, bro?”

A chess beginner will see this situation and say that black has an advantage. Because the most important ‘queen’ in chess is alive.

Those who know how to play chess will say that white has an advantage. Because the most important piece in chess is the ‘pawn’, which refers to an ordinary soldier.

Any chess master will tell you. White has an advantage, but black is also worth trying. It will depend on your skills.

Damon’s choice was simple.

White is stable, and Black is the one who can show off his skills.

Damon liked the latter.

What is the value of a stable life?

Endless challenges and achievements. That was the only device that made Damon move.

Above all—

“What is certain is that my brother chose the bag. Then I have no choice but to choose black. What is right-“

Damon defeated the King.

It was the queen who defeated the king.

When he chose black, in this game, no matter what, only the queen won.

“You have to go all the way to know.”

That’s what he said, but Damon’s expression was confident of victory.

Damon smiled and placed the queen in the place where the king had been removed.

“I’m betting on Irene Windsor.”

I’ve never thought of that before.

Depending on the day, the queen who occupied the king’s seat looked very good.
