004. That’s not what I want (1)

The reason I was able to adapt to this world right after I was born was partly due to my overwhelming understanding of MAGA, but more importantly, my memories of myself as Eugene Carter.

It was unfortunate that some of his memories were fragmented and broken, whether it was because of the incurable curse or because he lived a life as an addict.

There was no difficulty in identifying the giant before our eyes.

So I was going to pretend to know right away, but I ended up being a little coquettish first.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Weak provocation is met with stronger provocation.

In a situation where there is this much attention, you have no choice but to be strong even if you don’t like it.

‘If you lose in a fight, it’s over.’

As if he had quickly figured out my intentions, Geohan crossed his arms and smiled pitifully.

“Heh heh… It’s been so long, you don’t remember? Little Carter.”

Wiggle.

Eugene Carter’s memories reacted violently to the old title.

Frederick Lake. Born in 1433. Commissioned as a non-commissioned officer in the Imperial Army in 1953. Held various posts and finally completed his 12-year military career as a regimental officer.

After that, in 1965, he joined the academy as a basic physical education instructor in Carvena, and concurrently served as the headmaster of the 4th cadet building.

At the time, he had a considerable amount of conflict with Eugene Carter, who was a 4th year honors student, due to differences in values.

For Frederick, who had been a soldier for quite some time and was then transferred to the academy, discipline and system were the most important values.

It’s only natural that Eugene Carter, who broke it up head on, would not be seen as a picky eater.

‘If there’s a problem with the system, you should change the system, not blame people.’

Carvena, which was shaken up by Eugene Carter, continued to grow its position.

Contrary to Frederick’s thoughts.

That was the irony.

After Carvena gained greater influence within the Empire than before.

Because one of the people who benefited the most was Frederick himself.

So, I guess you probably have some complicated feelings about me right now.

We used to be like mortal enemies, but more than 10 years have passed since then… .

I responded with a calm smile as if nothing had happened.

“Ah, now I remember. How have you been, Instructor Frederick?”

This time it was our turn to counterattack.

“Instructor? You speak too little.”

“It’s none of my business anymore.”

“It’s not just that they’re not directly subordinate. Where did they sell the courtesy they gave to senior instructors?”

“What, you’re still a gym instructor? I guess I overreacted. Bena Livenia.”

As I smiled and saluted, Frederick’s lips began to twitch with anger.

He said, suppressing his anger.

“…I’m the Dean of Academic Affairs now.”

“Then yes. I knew it right away when I saw your outfit. I apologize for any inconvenience, Dean of Academic Affairs.”

“ha….”

Frederick’s expression slowly began to crack as he noticed my intentions.

“…When I heard that you were coming back, I thought you wouldn’t stay still.”

He put one hand on his waist and shook his head.

“Yeah, what’s the problem this time? Of course it’s not something trivial. If it’s trash, I hope it’s properly crumpled like trash.”

“I was going to do that too… but I was afraid that if I continued like this, Carvena’s reputation would be tarnished.”

“Anyway, shameless things are the same now as they were then….”

Frederick scratched his forehead and sighed deeply.

“Who do you think is causing trouble here? Huh? Don’t you know that the work of the Academic Affairs Office is constantly being delayed because of you?”

“If that’s what you’re worried about, why don’t you make a separate seat? How about we go inside?”

“Why are you going that far? Why don’t we just wrap things up here?”

“Do you admit that Carvena has denied the education system of Dellowell?”

Shudder.

Yes. Even you would be intimidated by the name Dellowell.

Because he is a person who has been through a lot, his notoriety may feel even more frightening.

“…That’s an exaggeration, Carter.”

“It’s not for you to judge whether it’s an exaggeration or not.”

“…….”

“If anything, like I said before, I can go to Dellowell myself and find out the facts.”

As I continued to maintain a calm expression, Frederick took a step back.

“So, what do you want to do? You don’t want to make a big deal out of it, do you?”

Since threats didn’t work, they switched to persuasion.

There is a way to just be satisfied here and move on… .

‘Eugene Carter would never let it end here.’

I said, carefully placing my hand on Rubia’s shoulder.

“Please conduct a comprehensive review of the books that cannot be brought in.”

Then, a question appeared on Frederick’s face again.

“…Review?”

“Isn’t this a natural procedure?”

“That’s true, but… why does it seem like your character has changed a lot? Are you the kind of man who pays attention to even these little details?”

“…….”

“Or, are you on special terms with that professor? Is that why you’re carrying the gun like this?”

Do I really have to tell you that?

I glanced over.

“I don’t know what brought you back to Carvena, but you’d better be careful. This place isn’t as easy as you once thought.”

“You’ll know when you see it.”

“……I see. Was that why?”

Frederick lowered his head and swallowed his laughter as if he had noticed something.

What the hell is that, you little punk?

The words rose to the tip of my chin, but I barely managed to suppress them.

Suddenly, something made him so happy, Frederick giggled for a while before slowly raising his head.

“There are less than three weeks left, right? I hope you live up to your former reputation, Carter.”

“…You can look forward to it.”

“Okay. This time I’ll play to your rhythm.”

Frederick spoke, tapping the magic book on the shelf.

“Let’s see… Was it Professor Magnus?”

Rubia, whose name was suddenly called, answered in surprise.

“…Ah, yes!”

“As you know, this case is a special case among special cases. From now on, I will judge it strictly according to the regulations, so please understand. Do you understand?”

“Ah… Okay, I understand.”

“Please try to avoid using controversial teaching materials. So that we don’t have to embarrass each other.”

“…I will keep that in mind.”

He glared at me one last time, then turned around and headed inside.

After the uproar at the academic affairs office died down.

I was heading to the chairman’s office, supported by Rubia.

There were still a lot of eyes watching so I thought about resting on the terrace and leaving, but there wasn’t enough time for that.

‘You talk too much, Frederick.’

Our eyes met for a moment with Rubia, who had been staring at my indifferent face without saying a word.

She suddenly nodded her head.

“Thank you again, Colonel Eugene Carter.”

The tone of voice was completely different from before.

This must be Rubia Magnus’ original speech.

“Full name is fine, Eugene is enough.”

“Then, to Eugene!”

Seeing that bright smile, I had a hard time maintaining my poker face.

As soon as Ruby saw that my expression had relaxed a little, she immediately asked a question.

“There’s something I’m curious about, Eugene.”

“yes.”

“Are you also interested in sacred magic, Eugene?!”

It was Rubia with lights in her eyes.

I forced my gaze into space.

“Why do you think so?”

She pursed her lips and looked down at the book she was holding.

“Well… you knew the contents of this difficult book by heart. Even among the Gluon School magicians, Zosimos’s writings are considered non-mainstream.”

“I just happened to come across it in the past.”

If I tell you that I have extracted the core keywords of the book with my unique skills, you will obviously be disappointed.

“So this is your first professorial appointment this year, Eugene?”

“yes.”

“What subject are you in charge of?”

“For now, I am a combat tactics instructor.”

Rubia’s eyes widened even more when the word ‘real combat’ came up.

“As expected from someone from the special forces, you’re amazing.”

“Everyone does it, you know.”

“Ahaha, I’m a person who only knows theory….”

“There is no practice without theory.”

We continued to chat amicably for about ten minutes after that.

Throughout our conversation, Rubia actively showed her friendliness towards me.

It may be because he defended himself before, but even taking that into account, it was excessive.

As if he had known Eugene Carter for a long time.

My conclusion on this was, ‘let’s just wait and see a little longer.’

‘I don’t remember, but… it wouldn’t be strange if there was a connection somewhere.’

Before I knew it, I had arrived in front of the chairman’s office on the 7th floor.

“Thank you for supporting me.”

I nodded lightly towards Rubia.

“I wonder if it’s taking up too much time.”

“Not at all.”

Rubia nodded her head as if she was greatly impressed by something.

“…As expected, rumors in Carvena are not to be trusted.”

“yes?”

“It’s nothing.”

She held out her hand with a bright, innocent smile.

“I hope we meet again, Eugene.”

I smiled, lightly holding his hand.

“I agree.”

As I watched Rubia leave with refreshing steps, I instinctively muttered to myself.

“…I said I’ll have to go and see for myself.”

Knock knock knock

“Mr. Chairman, Eugene Carter is here. May I let him in?”

A small, boyish voice came from inside.

The servant who had been waiting nearby nodded and opened the door.

‘It’s good that I made contact with the two heroines from the first day… but why did Michelle have to be the second?’

I tried to walk as straight as possible.

There were so many decorations that I had the illusion of a cramped room for a moment.

The walls were lined with portraits of past emperors and chairman of the board.

The processed marble floor was harmoniously engraved with gold and silver patterns.

It was so bright that it even reflected my face.

“Come here, Colonel Carter.”

It was a tone that was sharp and yet gentle.

I took a step forward and looked straight at the woman in front of me.

Simple clothes, natural silver hair that is styled appropriately, and green eyes that seem to suck you in.

The faint, forced smile that contrasted with Rubia’s bright smile was particularly noticeable.

“I heard you called me, so I came to see you, Chairman.”

The third daughter of the Bernhard family, the most prestigious family in the Empire of Rivenia, and the 8th chairman of Carvena.

Knock, knock, knock.

Tapping the table with a familiar hand gesture.

Michelle Bernhard asked.

“Why did you come to Carvena?”
