I Became a Professor at the Academy - I Became a Professor at the Academy chapter 121

121 – Each person’s role (1)

“Then I’ll go~”

“I’m coming!!”

“I’ll bring you in by evening.”

Starting with Hana Baek, the children greet each other and leave the mansion with excited faces. After all the kids have left.

“… After all, how about I follow you?”

“It’s overprotective.”

“Over-protection… no.”

Claire, who follows me towards the study, protests a little bit dissatisfiedly with her lips sticking out.

“The barrier has been restored, but the period of hiatus is long, so both the inside and the outside are in a state of confusion.”

“I told you yesterday too.”

“… Yes. I told you yesterday too.”

She followed behind me, speeding up a little and joining me.

“If all of the seniors have been sent out, and those kids suddenly leave the academy, they will get attention even if they don’t like it. Moreover, each and every one of them has a strong character… … .”

Swoop-

The left sleeve is pulled up.

Looking down, I could see that she was pulling on my sleeve.

“Well, if I can’t do it, why don’t I put a high priest or another paladin behind me… ?”

“I heard from Lee Ye-sol that everyone is on vacation.”

“… My orders take precedence.”

“You’re a bad boss.”

“Uh, if Mr. Jin allows it… … oops… .”

I just moved my grabbed hand and touched my cheek, but then he flinched at my shoulder and walked away from me. I looked at her, who took a few steps back in an instant, then headed back to the study. And he said to her hesitantly.

“A cup of coffee, please.”

“… … Yes.”

After sending Claire to the kitchen, I returned to the study alone and leaned back on the chair in front of the desk.

-It’s because of an assignment. Is it okay if I go out on the weekend?

These are the words Baek Ha-na came to me after finishing training on Friday lunchtime.

-I need to film a video of catching and dismantling a low-level monster. can’t it?

Standing in front of the desk, keeping a distance from me, he asked for permission with an upright posture. It was unexpected, but I allowed 100 people to go out.

If it was that kind of thing, it was a problem that could be solved by using the crystal stuck in the bedroom, but it didn’t. He’s trying to keep his distance from me, and I can’t get in the way of that.

More than anything, it’s time to start organizing little by little.

‘Eight years is enough.’

I’ve already received too much.

More than that would be greed or self-satisfaction.

Swoop.

The door to the study opened softly and Claire came inside. And just like Hana Baek did yesterday, I used the desk as a wall and set the teacup down in front of me.

It seems that he is quite dissatisfied with the fact that he is not allowed to follow the children.

“Let’s go to the faculty meeting at 10 o’clock together.”

“Me too?”

He put down the half-empty teacup and nodded.

Then, Claire’s eyes, which had been harboring a bit of dissatisfaction, calmly subsided.

“Is there anything else you want me to do?”

“no.”

“… … ?”

Claire, who had regained her energy, slowly blinked her wide-open eyes.

“… then?”

“Does a professor need a reason to take an associate professor?”

“No, no… ?”

Every time she showed such an appearance, I understood why Lee Ye-sol was trying to tease her boss so much.

“then… What about that child?”

Claire’s gaze briefly turned to the bedroom.

Unlike the children who left the mansion after finishing preparations early in the morning, the fairy is sleeping in the bedroom as usual.

“I called Lee Ye-sol.”

“… I am her boss.”

Since when did you ask for that?

When I stared at her in silence, Claire averted her eyes first.

As the distance narrows like this, the expressions toward me are gradually increasing.

I put down the empty teacup.

“And you are mine.”

“… … .”

A face that gradually turns red.

“I’ll change my clothes and come out… .”

In the end, he gave up his protest and ran to his bedroom as usual.

Alone, I leaned against the backrest and closed my eyes.

Faculty and staff step into the academy one by one for a staff meeting to be held shortly.

‘Seven.’

It is the number of people with a completely different wavelength from the body wavelength permeated in the ID card. I wonder if there is a person who has the information I want among those trash.

I just hope they’re worth as much as they let me in.

Or the bigger one bites the bait thrown out.

‘I wish it would end on my line, but that would be difficult.’

If you see that they are already thinking about entering the academy, some of the kids who left the academy a little while ago must have been attached to them.

They also have eyes and ears, so at most one target worth aiming at is Lee Na-young. If you swallow the others, it’s obvious that you’ll get burned.

However, even that would not be attempted unless the existence of Claire and I were confirmed. It is for this reason that Claire is brought to this meeting.

To tell them whereabouts of me and Claire.

Swoop.

I woke up to the sound of the door opening.

Turning my head slightly, I could see Claire wearing a black suit that I hadn’t seen in a while.

“… A little bit too much, right?”

“no.”

The meeting itself will start and end with the president’s pointless talk, so it’s okay not to dress up like that. But I didn’t bother to tell Claire about it.

It would be too much to show off to the trash.

“Go back carefully~”

“Ladies be careful too.”

Maria got out of the taxi with a soft smile.

“I should have eaten breakfast and left… ?”

“I’m a little hungry too.”

Idni and Baek Ha-na are rubbing their stomachs while standing in front of the checkpoint.

Maria looked at the two and smiled.

“I know a good restaurant, so let’s finish it quickly and go.”

“That’s right, even if you don’t tell me… Hey Nayoung. Do you have anything to eat?”

“Po, there’s a potion, huh?!”

Lee Na-young, who was rummaging through the small bag she was wearing around her waist, suddenly jumped up. It was because Baek Hana, who was hugging him from behind, slightly bit his cheek.

“Baehoah… … .”

“Ah, uh, me, ha, hana, geak?!”

Lee Na-young, who was embarrassed, jumped up once more.

It was because Idni, who was standing next to Maria, approached and bit off the other cheek.

– Ha ha ha, it looks good.

– It was good to come out early.

-Where are the students?

The Awakeners standing in line at the checkpoint showed reactions such as secretly taking pictures with a small smile, and the guards, who should have been sharp on the barrier, also smiled while looking at it for a moment.

In the case of low-level rifts, as well as the vacation season, it turns into a home for awakeners with mediocre skills, so only men with a dull atmosphere come and go every day.

In such a place, there were girls who brightened up the surroundings just by being there, so I couldn’t help but notice them.

Aww——!!

“… … ?!”

Idni jumped up and down with a crackling sound, and the Awoken who were laughing were startled involuntarily.

“Stop harassing Nayoung and go and stand in line. Aren’t you a nuisance to others?”

Most of the awakened people wanted to shout that it was not a nuisance at all, but no one had the courage to say it out loud.

“Chi… … why are you hitting me? Hana Baek did it first!”

slap-

Maria lightly tapped her white forearm.

“Are you okay?”

“Ugh, ugh!!”

Idney patted my stomach, sighed, and joined the long line.

“One, stop you too.”

“Ugh… .”

Only after Maria poked her side slightly did Baek Ha-na spit out Lee Na-young’s soft cheek.

“Come on, let’s get in line. The people behind us can’t even stand in line because of us.”

“okay… … .”

Hana Baek trudged behind Lee Na-young with Lee Na-young, resting her chin on Lee Na-young’s head.

“Are you Seohee?”

“… … uh.”

Nam Seo-hee, who was looking behind her with her eyes narrowed, nodded and stood next to Baek Ha-na.

“You were Arena Academy students. Are you here for an assignment?”

“Yes. that’s right. It should be out in 30 minutes at the most.”

“Confirmed. If you need help, please ask the keeper at any time. There are quite a few people who are resting.”

“Okay.”

Maria smiled lightly and took her student ID and passed through the gate.

“Let’s go to the nearest one.”

“yes… … let’s hurry. It takes more than an hour just to call a taxi and go back, but I have to finish this quickly… .”

Baek Hana led the way, and Idni followed with a limp posture.

“Why did you do that earlier?”

“… I feel like I can feel your gaze.”

“Rather, wouldn’t it be strange if you couldn’t feel their gaze?”

The person on the barrier, the Awoken who just passed through the gate, and the guardian sitting in front of the rift.

Everyone is glancing at themselves.

“It’s not that kind of… … .”

Nam Seo-hee kept her mouth shut while talking.

“… It must have been a little sensitive after a long absence.”

The reason Nam Seo-hee came to think that way was simple.

It was because Baek Hana, who was several times more sensitive than himself, showed no reaction.

“yes. Seo-hee, you must have been hungry too.”

“That’s not… .”

Growling—!!

A rather loud sound came from Nam Seo-hee’s stomach, like an excited Idney.

“… let’s hurry.”

“Yes, huh? Seo, is it Seohee?!”

Nam Seo-hee carried Lee Na-young on her back as if they were running away, and chased after Baek Ha-na and Idni, who had just left.

“… … .”

Left alone, Maria quietly followed her friends and took out her smartphone. Then, as if calling somewhere, he quietly stuffed it into his front pocket. So that the front camera looks very good.
