I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy - I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy chapter 100

100 – Hey, it’s hard to be smart! – 2

The first thing I visited was Adrian’s office, but I confirmed that he was away.

So, as Michelle turned around, there was of course nothing to look at other than Charlotte’s condition. Michelle could find her on the training ground.

“charlotte.”

Michelle called out the girl’s name. Of course, no answer came back.

Now, students in the failing class can also use various good facilities.

It was a beautiful sight as the sunlight passed through the windows, split into hexagons, and illuminated the facilities.

The training ground was very crowded, with an all-out war just around the corner. Tension was evident on the faces of the students because they had to achieve results.

“charlotte.”

Michelle called Charlotte a few more times, but even then Charlotte didn’t respond to Michelle’s words.

I think it would be more appropriate to say ‘I couldn’t react’. In fact, it seemed that Charlotte was staring blankly at something in another world.

Eventually, Michelle walked and stood in front of Charlotte. Even then, Charlotte stared blankly into space.

Michelle ponders what to say, and Charlotte looks like she’s okay with anything else.

It was the complete opposite of what it usually was.

Yes, it used to be exactly the opposite. Charlotte was always wondering what to say, and Michelle was always not interested in what anyone was doing next to her.

But now that has changed.

friendship?

Is it because of friendship? But neither Michelle nor Charlotte knew exactly what friendship was yet.

– Take care of her.

It was only Adrian who made Michelle act this way. because that’s what he asked for. Because that’s something special for Michelle.

I still haven’t fully understood the sincerity he gave to Michelle, but Adrian’s sincerity was definitely there.

The sincerity of wanting to make Charlotte grow no matter what the circumstances are.

‘Come to think of it, where does that sincerity toward students always come from?’

It made me want to ask Adrienne out loud.

If you are a normal human being, if there are circumstances, you will give up something else. But what is the will to never give up despite the circumstances?

While thinking about it for a while. Charlotte pursed her lips.

“…what’s the matter?”

Charlotte’s dark voice, never heard before. It was only after hearing it for himself that Michelle got out of her thoughts.

Unknowingly, I looked at the clock on one side of the training ground.

That’s right, it’s not long before the all-out war… Adrian wants Charlotte to grow, so now is not the time to argue.

Using telekinetic powers, Michelle saved the materials she had been carrying in a nice way.

Adrian had given it to Michelle with the password, but it was a good learning material if you just looked at it without deciphering it.

Most of them were fire-related magic materials and related to mana circulation, so they were in line with what Charlotte had to learn.

“Take this.”

“What?”

“It will help you train.”

I can’t even train, so what kind of help. Charlotte shook her head.

“It’s fine. I’ll take care of it… ”

“Professor Adrian gave it to you.”

“……?”

It was given to me by Professor Adrian. At those words, Charlotte began to tremble.

“Professor Adrian… ?”

“Yes, go ahead and take it.”

Charlotte silently handed it over.

So far, Charlotte has received a lot of grace from Adrian, and at the same time has done many things wrong.

A representative of mana.

Charlotte didn’t know why she was chosen as the representative. Actually, I was thinking of going to Professor Adrian and asking him to remove his name.

… If Professor Adrian gave it to me, I had to do it somehow.

The reason why I couldn’t ask for a name to be excluded was simple. Because Adrian told me not to come near.

I just strictly kept my word.

But what if Adrian made it disappear altogether?

Adrian was the only one for Charlotte. She was the only one who allowed Charlotte to step on the stairs of her dream, where she used to live with abstract goals.

Perhaps… If I were to give such an order someday, I wouldn’t have the confidence to endure it. I was afraid just thinking about it.

Various fears overtook the girl, but this material still felt like a rope.

“ah…”

Charlotte gulped and swallowed once.

Still, when Professor Adrian said that he had given me something, I felt something fill my eyes.

But I couldn’t even do that because I was afraid that if I cried, they would think badly of it.

Michelle pressed her temple with her index finger. He opened his mouth with difficulty.

“It will be very embarrassing. It’s difficult to explain everything, but I’ll try to explain it step by step from now on… ”

“I will. I will.”

Michelle’s head tilted as she cut off what she was about to say.

I hadn’t even started explaining it properly, but Charlotte accepted it so easily.

However, Charlotte continued to speak quietly, not taking her eyes off the data she had been handed over.

“me… you can do it. Don’t worry because you can definitely do it. I will.”

Michelle started thinking.

In fact, the part that worried Michelle the most was how Charlotte gave up without heeding any of Michelle’s persuasion.

However, the current Charlotte felt both anxiety and determination at the same time.

Is it good? No, I couldn’t infer everything from psychology alone.

“It’s fine, but don’t pay too much attention to what Professor Adrian is doing to you right now. After a while, I think it will become another story.”

But just in case you don’t know, let’s explain the necessary things indirectly. The moment I was about to continue talking with that kind of heart.

“…Michelle.”

Charlotte’s voice was so serious that Michelle couldn’t help but keep her mouth shut.

Charlotte with Michelle when she first entered this space, and Charlotte talking now. It felt like dealing with two completely different people.

Charlotte continues.

“me… I want to be alone. yes. now i know what to do okay because… ”

He seemed to think that Michelle was giving him halfway consolation.

Well, I think I should explain this part clearly.

“There seems to be a misunderstanding, so let me explain in a little more detail. Look at the underlined parts of the data. Even though it looks normal from the outside, that Professor Adrian has hidden this and that device.”

Michelle began to explain step by step.

From the story that these were the materials Adrian threw, to the story of visiting the library, and the story of unlocking the codes one by one there.

“How long are you going to treat me like a fool?”

But in the end, it went wrong again.

“……?”

Michelle looked at Charlotte with a puzzled expression.

No matter how she explained it, Charlotte seemed to think that Michelle had come all this way to appease her clumsily.

“Everything I just said is true.”

“…The fact that the professor gave it to me must be true.”

Even when I thought about why I couldn’t believe it, the answer was obvious.

Charlotte had low self-esteem and thought that she herself had many reasons to be hated by Adrian.

So it seemed that he couldn’t understand the situation itself that Adrian was actually doing for himself.

“no… you really… ”

I had a lot to say.

Countless explanations raced through Michelle’s head.

But I couldn’t.

Fundamentally, this was a problem that could only be solved by raising Charlotte’s self-esteem, so there was no choice.

Even if you think about it yourself, you have to have the awareness that you are proud of yourself, so you can accept the story that others are for you.

That slightly twisted conclusion weighed heavily on Michelle’s head.

‘What should I do then?’

But Charlotte quietly turned her back and spat out a word.

“Now do it in moderation and go back. This, this… Even if I die, I will learn everything.”

“Hmm… ”

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand right now.

First of all, among the things Adrian conveyed to Michelle, the first goal was to ‘let Charlotte learn’. However, since the person concerned said he would definitely study…

And most of all, Charlotte’s attitude was enough to make Michelle feel bad.

Inferiority, victim mentality, and low self-esteem are the things she hates the most. I couldn’t help it.

I tried hard to suppress the words that were trying to come out bluntly.

“First… well, you know You must learn it.”

After emphasizing the words to study the material a few more times, Michelle turned around.

After all, it was a problem that would not be solved without meeting Adrian.

Charlotte’s back was a little disturbing, but the girl began to move slowly.

And as if possessed, he started looking for Adrian.
