From Space Idiot to Professor - From Space Idiot to Professor chapter 31

31 – Entrance Ceremony (1)

“Please wait a moment.”

Just as I was about to sit down at the head table, Sonia’s hand came into my arms.

“You wore a strange tie, right?”

She sighed and adjusted the direction of her tie. It was a quick and skillful move.

“School uniform is a symbol of Stellarium students. Avoid crinkling or wearing it poorly.”

I don’t know how many times I’ve said this.

I was about to refute Sonia’s criticism, but quickly gave up the thought. No matter how you look at it, there was no productivity.

Although I am an adult in spirit, I feel strange wearing a school uniform.

It was my first time wearing a high school uniform. Since I took the qualification exam and jumped straight from middle school to university, my high school transcript was blank.

Seti said, nudging my shoulder.

“Hey, hey, hey, dad is here.”

I stood up reflexively.

In the distance, a man with a bloodless face was walking towards us.

“Father!”

When Seti waves his hand, his steps speed up.

“It’s been a while, Seti.”

“You haven’t had any problems so far, right?”

“I’m fine. Congratulations on your admission. You were smart, just like your mother. I knew it would work from the beginning. And… ….”

My father, Arnold von Rheinland, paused as soon as he made eye contact with me.

“…… Eidel.”

“Yes, father.”

I bowed and said hello.

When he raised his head, Arnold’s eyebrows were twitching slightly.

“Senior, is that right?”

“Yes.”

I took out the terminal from my pocket and opened the screen. The freshman representative oath was written on a small screen.

“Just as my father said, I was accepted into Stellarium. Not only that, but I also received this honor.”

“… ….”

“I will not disappoint you in the future.”

I think I said it quite succinctly. I hope this will help Arnold’s anger subside a little.

For some reason, my father’s eyes were as cold as frost.

I noticed something strange and immediately checked the SAN parameters.

Things are going badly.

“Father, didn’t mother come?”

Seti, looking around, asked. Her voice was weaker than before.

“I didn’t come with you.”

“… Okay.”

“Your mother is very busy taking care of patients right now. Of course, I can’t stay here for long. “Brian is taking his place now, but he won’t be around for long.”

Me and Seti couldn’t talk to my father for long. He left soon after.

“Idel.”

Before my father passed away, he said something to me.

“Congratulations.”

The entrance ceremony began without parents watching.

***

Due to the incident that occurred during the practical evaluation, Academia’s security was extremely tight.

“Well, our school takes responsibility for what happened during this practical exam and apologizes and compensates the parents and applicants…” ….”

A man with a bald head came out and appeased the parents’ complaints. His complexion was haggard, as if the incident had not yet been resolved.

“My daughter almost died. How on earth can you take responsibility?”

There were incidents where some aggressive parents got angry, but the schedule went smoothly.

And before I knew it, it was my turn.

“Freshman students are to be represented by the denomination.”

When I came to my senses, I realized that my body had been teleported to the podium.

What is it? Was there a warp device here too?

Looking down on countless students and parents. They checked my face and eyes and said one word at a time.

It was so loud that I couldn’t hear individual words, but it seemed like they were probably guessing my identity.

“New student representative, Eidel von Rheinland.”

Suddenly.

At the words of the grade manager, the audience quieted down. Now I could clearly feel that everyone’s eyes were on me.

I couldn’t help but feel nervous.

“Whoa.”

[— Consume 200 Pron to use ‘Mental Stability (Lv.1)’.]

Let’s calm down. You can think of this as an academic seminar. Or maybe you are presenting a paper.

I felt much better after using self-hypnosis like that.

“Freshman representative oath.”

“Seun-seo.”

Bend your right arm at a right angle to make an L shape, and lower the other hand holding the tablet to make an L shape.

The identity of the top student entering the school is truly unimaginable.

I read the speech in this state.

“As freshmen of the prestigious Stellarium Academia, we are expected to always behave well, devote ourselves to our studies, and lead amicable peer relationships…….”

This is a rough but acceptable speech. A piece of writing that I wouldn’t mind reading if any of the students gathered here read it.

“…… This concludes the oath. Freshman representative, Eidel von Rhineland.”

Chuck.

I put down my hands and raised my head.

My brain, which became faster through ‘thinking acceleration,’ was able to store more information. Therefore, it was not difficult to notice that most students and parents had a sh*t-chewing expression.

I guess this is the importance of the speaker.

With a cut in my eyes, I hurried down from the podium.

But as soon as I returned to my seat, I couldn’t help but frown.

A white-haired girl was sitting in my seat.

Without a doubt, it was Zernia Adelbein.

“It was you, after all.”

Zernya reclines in a reclining chair with her right leg crossed. Her eyes were extremely cold.

Purple burning eyes stare at me.

“Do you think you’re excited after taking first place?”

His tone was as venomous as his venomous face.

“This is just a fluke. “Don’t think that if you get lucky and do well in the qualitative evaluation, that will continue.”

Thank you for the advice.

“Then…” .”

It was the moment when Zernya got up from her seat and was about to leave.

“But you won first place, right?”

Seti, who had remained quiet throughout, opened her mouth to Zernia for the first time. She slowly opened her closed eyes.

The moment Zernia looked behind her, Seti struck an additional blow without hesitation.

“You came in second place, but you talk a lot, right?”

“You….”

Zernya’s eyes widened. But that didn’t stop Seti von Rhineland.

“How do you feel about coming in second place after being first all your life? Are you new? “That’s good.”

“You….”

“After ignoring it like that, it turned over like a pancake. “Oppa, how was the atmosphere at the lectern over there?”

“Oh, it was awesome.”

It seems like a lot has accumulated since starting from Ergos Academy. When the number of cases was captured, the Zernia looked dangerous as if it had encountered a violent storm in front of Seti, who broke the seal and began an onslaught.

“Are you trying to fight me now?”

“I’m sorry. “I didn’t mean to say that.”

“You don’t care how the other person perceives it. “I can see right away that your Korean language score is lower than mine.”

“Did you get scratched?”

“You talk a lot about topics where your rank is lower than mine.”

“I’m also an excellent scholarship recipient? “Even though we are both excellent scholarship recipients, is there a guarantee who will come in second place and who will come in third place?”

A fact that comes to mind whenever you forget it.

Most of Adelbein’s family members have a strong personality. This is official information given in the novel.

In addition, Seti learned numerous maw techniques while fighting with Eidel. As they spent every day asking each other how their parents were doing, Zernya, her only child, could not bear it.

“It’s vulgar.”

“It’s better than being imbecile.”

“They really play with each other.”

“There is a lot of talk about a topic that is in second place. There’s a lot to say about a topic that ranks second. “Oh, why is it said twice?”

“Tsk.”

Zernya returned to her seat angrily. Although she was faking an expressionless expression, her earlobes were red.

Sighing in triumph, Seti pushed back the side of her braided hair.

She looked at me and said.

“It’s a victory for the Rhineland.”

As her older brother, I couldn’t help but be moved by seeing her younger brother’s skills advance to the next level.

At the same time, I was also scared.

How much more foul-mouthed will this child become when he grows up?

Even after sending Zernya away with just words, her entrance ceremony continued. At this point, the grade manager was playing a promotional video for the school, and he spoke so openly that a lot of criticism poured out.

Seti was also rubbing her eyes, feeling sleepy. I looked around, poked her brother on the shoulder, and asked:

“Where has Rustilla gone?”

“Ah, sister… ?”

“On a nice day like this, the two of us should hang out together. “Why are you walking around with me?”

“Well, there’s a reason for everything….”

It was then that a dark shadow appeared behind my back.

Tuktuk.

I thought it was just a person passing by, but he intentionally tapped my shoulder. At that stimulus, I turned around.

Standing there was an elderly couple with hair as golden as sunlight and eyes as blue as the sea.

I thought the day was ripe somewhere, but it was the parent who had questioned the principal about the practical evaluation earlier.

“Student, your name is Eidel von Rhineland, right?”

“Oh, yes.”

I answered without realizing it.

And a beat later, I was able to get a bird’s eye view of the overall background situation.

Behind the elderly couple, there was Rustilla, surrounded by several androids, including Jermel.

She made eye contact with me, and then she gingerly lifted her hand and shook it. The sight of her wry smile was heartbreaking.

However, that action was soon stopped. The android I saw for the first time forced Rustilla’s hand down.

The woman clicked her tongue and spoke belatedly.

“What on earth is your relationship with my daughter?”
