I Became a Professor at the Academy - I Became a Professor at the Academy chapter 104

104 – Summer Festival (3)

Time is given equally to everyone, but strangely, depending on the situation and person, the flow is felt differently.

like right now

“Eup, eup, eup!!”

“Hey! Be patient a little longer!!”

“Hey, cheer up Idni!!”

“Please finish in your line.”

The setting sun and the sky turning orange.

With her back to the beautiful sunset, Claire quietly watched the children shouting excitedly in front of a stall run by two professors she knew.

Idni is stomping her feet after swallowing the sweet medicine with the grandiose name of scorching heat. The children cheering for such an idney. However, Claire’s blue eyes did not stop at Idni, who was about to succeed, but at the fairy riding on Baek Ha-na’s shoulder.

-cheer up!!

A small child waving a small fist and cheering with a voice filled with energy that seems impossible to come out of that small body.

Claire put her hands in the pockets she wore around her waist.

Even until morning, the pocket that was full without empty space now fits my fist comfortably. As she entered, several small bottles touched her palm. A bottle containing the essence of the Slime Queen you brought from the study.

-Beep hee hee!! Beep, beep… … .

-Pepper?

Even the day before yesterday, the little girl who had been playing happily with the children in an energetic look was struggling to breathe as if she had been running until she was short of breath since yesterday.

-Gen, Chana!!

-… Are you really okay?

In response to the children’s questions, the little girl smiled and nodded her head.

Whenever that happened, Claire took out the essence of the slime from her bag and gave it to the fairy. Through that, the children came to think that the change of fairies was caused by hunger.

‘Do not doubt.’

Claire swallowed her breath at the faint presence of the fairy, now so weak that she couldn’t even feel it. She remembered clearly what the person she had in mind had said that day.

‘… Trust me.’

It looks like it will disappear any moment, but the little girl still exists. can be seen, heard, and touched. still exists there.

“Foohwaahak?!”

“Cluck, I just had to hold out for 10 more seconds.”

“I’m really sorry, but I’m eliminated.”

A bright red flame erupted from Idni’s wide-open mouth, and the fairy on Baekhana’s shoulder laughed and clapped. Claire struggled to raise the corner of her mouth at the sight of her being so happy that it was colorless for her cheering for her to cheer up just a moment ago.

“… Sister Asen?”

“What is it?”

Claire, who had been looking at the fairy, replied, keeping her emotions as low as possible.

Lee Ye-sol asked very carefully about the appearance of her superior, whether it was clear from yesterday.

“Do you have any problems… ?”

“Problem… … .”

Claire took out her hand from her bag and brought the camera from Lee Ye-sol’s hand. She captured the children running around on her lens.

“This time… … .”

click.

A picture of the children in the camera.

However, seeing the little girl who was more blurry than yesterday, Claire said quietly.

“Time seems to go by too fast.”

“It was pretty hectic yesterday and today.”

“yes… … .”

Claire handed the camera back to Lee Ye-sol.

Ye-Sol Lee has the same expression as usual, but for some reason the boss’s eyes look sad. After thinking for a moment, she hung the camera around her neck and clung to her boss.

“Sister~ How about we get a little closer?”

“… Sigh.”

Claire gave a short sigh to the subordinate, who even changed the title at will, saying that it was necessary to thoroughly hide the fact that he had decided to hide his identity.

“Welcome~”

“… yes.”

However, at Lee Ye-Sol’s tenacious behavior, Claire finally smiled and followed her to the children.

“Eww… … .”

“Ugh, I can’t stand that.”

“Huh huh?!”

“What are you saying? I need to heal, so give me your tongue.”

“Ewbeek… … !!”

Maria pulled Idni’s swollen tongue and infused it with divine power.

“Seo-hee, cheer up!!”

“I don’t want to eat that again… .”

Lee Na-young and Baek Ha-na are cheering for Nam Seo-hee, who is already trembling after swallowing the burning medicine.

“Can I make it today?”

Lee Ye-sol smiled slightly as she took a picture of Idney with swollen lips.

“If you want to fully enjoy the end, you should.”

“Whoops.”

Shortly thereafter, a flame rose from Nam Seo-hee’s mouth, followed by Maria’s successive failures.

Lee Ye-sol happily captured the suffering of the children on camera and laughed, and the fairy that was riding on Baek Ha-na’s shoulder moved onto Claire’s palm.

“Whoa.”

A bright red pill in your hand.

Baek Hana glared at it and swallowed.

“Hana, do your best… … !!”

– Beep!!

Lee Na-yeong and the fairy, who were the only ones who were fine, cheered Baek Ha-na, and Baek Ha-na gulped down the sweet medicine with very sad eyes.

After the crowds gathered in front of the stalls had left.

Yoon Do-sik swept the heaps of medicines into a sack.

“Do you think it went well without being caught?”

“hahahaha, you can’t get caught in the first place, can you?”

“That’s right.”

Yoon Do-sik and Jayden joined forces to manufacture short-lived drugs to a level that students could never withstand. That’s because it’s very difficult for them to handle the back when the artifact is given to the strict guys.

“If it was fun, I don’t want to do it twice.”

It was quite a fun sight to see the students breathing fire with their mouths, but honestly, having to change the medicine to give an artifact to a specific student in the midst of so many eyes was not very pleasant.

I wondered if something had happened because the chairman called, but I never thought he would leave such a troublesome and dangerous task to me.

“But he’s also a very funny guy.”

“Are you talking about Professor Baek?”

“yes. Gnome. If you want to give it, you should just give it proudly. I don’t know why you are doing such a troublesome thing.”

“hahahaha, how do we know what Professor Baek is thinking? There must have been a reason for that.”

“… … .”

Yoon Do-sik knocked on the heavy sack and glared at Jayden, who was organizing the money.

“Why is that?”

“… no. nothing.”

Yoon Do-sik, who was about to say that he just looked like a fanatic, shook his head and stood up.

“If you don’t have a schedule for the evening, would you like to have a drink in the lab?”

“Oh, medicine!!”

Jaden got up from his seat with a mouth-watering look on his pocket full of bills.

“I want to do it with my heart, but there is a prior agreement… … today and tomorrow… No, I think it will be difficult for the time being.”

“Well, I can’t help it when I’m busy. let’s talk when the time comes It’s not like it’s going to go bad if you keep it for a long time.”

“hahahaha, thank you.”

Jayden smiled lightly and handed the money bag to Yoon Do-shik.

“But how did it go?”

“If it is… ?”

“Why? it. What you and Professor Baek originally planned to do.”

“Cough, Cough—!!”

Jayden, who didn’t take the heat, coughed up his throat while taking the jacket he had taken off.

“Didn’t you decide to stop talking about that…? ?”

“That’s when you’re teasing. I’m asking seriously this time.”

Yoon Do-sik shook his baggy pocket.

“Well, the result is so obvious that it doesn’t mean much, but since you’ve got money after all, isn’t it okay to gamble lightly? chuckle.”

“Okay… … .”

With a genuinely embarrassed expression on his face, Jayden looked around. Their stalls were closed, but other stalls were still roaming around with students and invited guests.

“… Professor Baek decided to take a look at it.”

“Eh. It’s something I was looking forward to. Then tomorrow I’ll just rest at home.”

“hahahaha, rest is also important.”

“Then I will go first. Call me when you have time.”

“Yes. Take a look.”

Jayden moved to his laboratory only after Yoon Do-sik was completely out of sight.

“Whoa.”

Arriving at his own sanctuary where no one’s eyes can reach, he throws the jacket he was holding onto the sofa and takes out his smartphone from his pocket.

He pressed the name Robert for a long time in his numerous contacts.

Soon, his name flashed loudly on the screen, and a gentle classic started to flow through the speakers.

-I got a call.

“Are you there?”

-I guess you got a call like this because you arrived?

“Oh, I see. Sorry. There are not just a couple of things to worry about.”

– I understand. If it were me, my head would have exploded just by managing the Tower Lord.

Jayden let out a deep sigh and affirmed Robert’s words.

“At first, I had to ask for it, but… … What are the number of people and their level?”

-10 steps. 30 people.

“… I did ask, but it’s amazing. There would be nothing to gain.”

At Jayden’s question, Robert smiled lightly.

– Why is there nothing to gain? You can watch the barrier disappear and unfold again. Besides, for me, being able to help him is enough. I don’t know if you’ll throw something in later.

“ha ha ha… .”

Jayden laughed awkwardly.

It was because the person Robert said was Baek Woo-jin.

And the reason why Robert and the Wizards of the Clock Tower were summoned was to carry out what Baek Woo-jin had ordered him to do with the condition that the confrontation be postponed. In other words, no matter how hard Robert works, the possibility that Baek Woo-jin will give him anything is very slim.

– But can we really proceed as we said then?

“Yes. The director and the professor said they would do the probation themselves.”

– I see. Then I’ll be seated outside the academy, so if you have anything else to do, contact me.

“Thank you.”

Jayden threw his smartphone on the sofa and took water from the refrigerator to quench his thirst.

‘I’d like it to go quietly if possible.’

A few days ago, Jayden, who met Baek Woo-jin separately, heard a thing from Baek Woo-jin.

the last day of the festival.

In other words, the barrier will disappear tomorrow. He said it could take a few days to recover.

And as a condition of suspending the duel, he ordered one thing.

– Kill.

No matter who the opponent is, if there are people who try to set foot in the academy without permission, without exception, stop breathing.

“In case you don’t know, I should at least send you an email.”

Jayden picked up the thrown smartphone and left a message for Yoon Do-shik. Whatever happens, don’t come to the academy tomorrow.
