I’m Just an Ordinary Clown at the Academy - I’m Just an Ordinary Clown at the Academy chapter 117

117 – Training 7

“Huuhhhhh.”

“Did you stay up late last night, fool?”

While heading to the special class with Sepia by chance.

When I yawned, Sepia asked me.

On Sepia’s shoulder were the spirits of fire and earth.

“Well, then where are the water spirit and the wind spirit?”

Right now, they’re climbing up my shoulder and onto my head.

It tickled a bit on my shoulder, but it was cute, so I endured it.

Sepia, who used to try to stop the spirits from coming onto my body at first, now just goes along with it.

“Haam. I fell asleep a little later than usual.”

Already exhausted from arguing with Daluni and dealing with the disciplinary committee.

After the disciplinary committee was over, I didn’t realize how time flew by and played with Erika until late at night.

But that doesn’t mean Erika went back to the palace and immediately went to sleep.

Erika, who returned to the palace, had a conversation through the communication device.

“How is it? Do we look good together?”

I couldn’t help but laugh when I thought of Erika showing off wearing all the artifacts I gave her.

“Did you talk with the Emperor until late last night? Well, now that everyone knows you’re the Emperor’s disciple, there must have been a lot to talk about.”

“…..What?”

“What’s with that reaction? You hurriedly went when the Emperor called you yesterday. Don’t tell me it wasn’t the Emperor who called?”

In an instant, Sepia’s sharp eyes became even sharper.

That’s right, I escaped using the Emperor as a shield yesterday.

“No, of course it was the Emperor who called. I was still half-asleep, so I was momentarily confused. Ahahahaha.”

“It’s suspicious…”

Sepia stared at me intensely with her sharp eyes.

Of course, my face was covered by a mask, so she couldn’t see it.

“No way. I have never told a lie in my life. Honestly, I want to learn how to lie even if I have to pay for it.”

It’s a secret that Erika came to the academy.

Even when Erika returned to the palace yesterday, the Emperor’s shadow personally came to escort her.

Even though I conveyed my sincere feelings like this, Sepia still seemed skeptical as she stared at me intensely.

In times like this, it’s best to divert the topic of conversation.

“I couldn’t help but notice that there are more gazes on me than usual. Is it because they found out that I am the disciple of His Majesty, the Emperor?”

The students who were grumbling at me seemed to startle when they heard my voice.

Perhaps the fact that I am the Emperor’s disciple has spread not only within the Academy but also throughout the entire continent.

Currently, the Croa Empire is thriving.

At its center is the current Emperor, Casten Leonhardt.

Even if all the other kingdoms formed an alliance, they would not be able to defeat the current Croa Empire.

If the Emperor had the intention, he could have already unified the continent.

And I, as the Emperor’s disciple, am a living proof of that.

By now, other kingdoms are probably investigating me, aren’t they?

Not that it matters, since they won’t be able to find out anything anyway.

“Of course, it’s because of that. Then why did you grumble, I wonder?”

“Well, I thought you were grumbling because I looked more handsome than usual today. It’s common sense to think that way, isn’t it?”

“But what are you learning from His Majesty the Emperor? I know that His Majesty the Emperor uses a sword, but you don’t really pay much attention to swordsmanship, do you, you fool?”

Sepia completely ignored my words.

How rude!

The other students who had been observing Sepia and me from the surroundings strained their ears to listen to my words, as if they were curious about what I was learning from the Emperor.

Of course, there wouldn’t be any problem even if they overheard, but I didn’t feel the need to let them know.

“Hmm, if Sepia is so curious, I’ll tell you something special.”

“I’m not that curious…”

I brought my face close to Sepia’s ear so that the other students couldn’t hear.

When I suddenly pushed my face closer, Sepia seemed startled and flinched.

“Well, what is it?”

“If I were to learn something from His Majesty the Emperor…….”

“……….”

As I whispered in her ear, Sepia seemed to be nervous and swallowed hard.

“I’ll teach you how to seduce a woman.”

It was summer.

And Sepia’s feet moved before her mouth did.

“Ah! But there’s no need to kick me in the knee like that.”

“You’re so loud! Besides, who started it?”

Sepia walked briskly, showing determination.

The spirits grabbed her hair, implying that they wouldn’t follow along.

“Of course we should follow.”

They petted the spirits on their heads and ran towards Sepia, who was walking quickly.

“Stop, Sepia! Let’s go together!”

“I don’t want to!”

“Actually, I’m much faster than Sepia, so even if Sepia doesn’t stop, hmph! I can catch up with you in no time.”

“I really don’t want to!”

While teasing Sepia, who had given up on walking fast, I walked towards the special class.

“Excuse me.”

Someone blocked my path with Cepia.

Of course, I thought they were going to talk to Cepia.

Because every time I went to the special class with Cepia, there was always at least one person who talked to her.

But the gaze of the woman who blocked our way was directed at me.

Her makeup looked like she had just come back from a party, and her school uniform skirt was so short that her thighs were visible. Can that even be called a skirt?

Several buttons on her shirt were already undone, revealing her collarbone.

“Are you Loki? I’m Iera Aizet, a third-year student. If you’re okay with it, how about having a drink together after school today?”

The woman greeted me and bowed her head, making her already visible collarbone even more prominent.

The male students around us turned their heads or coughed awkwardly and moved slightly.

I looked at the woman who was staring at me, as if asking, ‘What do you think?’

‘What the hell does she want?’

She must be trying to seduce me or something.

When I saw Erika, who had just washed her face yesterday, my heart fluttered, but now it was the same as usual.

Maybe my heartbeats aren’t the same when I’m sleeping.

‘If Johann comes in this outfit and gives me a knee pillow…’

-Thump.

‘Stop thinking about it.’

I didn’t know it would be this dangerous just by imagining it.

For a moment, I thought my heart was going to explode.

To think that she would try to kill me with just her imagination.

Yohanna is truly amazing.

“Oh, I forgot to buy a car.”

I forgot to buy a car because I was with Erika yesterday.

Since I’m buying a car anyway, I should check if there’s anything else I need to buy….

“If not today, tomorrow will be fine….”

While I was thinking about buying it today, I heard a woman’s voice.

Ah, right. I was in the middle of a conversation.

Of course, I have no intention of having a drink with the woman in front of me.

I can spend a much more fulfilling time by teasing Yohanna or lying on her lap instead of having a drink with this woman.

“How can I refuse?”

I can’t just refuse.

If I refuse half-heartedly, she’ll bother me again.

For some reason, I looked at Sepia, who seemed a little angry.

I recalled the method Sepia used to drive away people who bothered her until now.

“Get lost.”

“Don’t you see that we’re having a conversation?”

“Are your eyes just for decoration?”

Hmm, it doesn’t seem to be very helpful.

I could clearly see the intentions of this woman in front of me.

I probably wanted to get closer to her because I knew I was the Emperor’s disciple.

I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing.

After all, the woman in front of me hasn’t caused me any harm yet.

Of course, I only think it’s not bad, I have no intention of having a drink with her.

‘Should I just speak directly like Sepia?’

I was still looking at Sepia.

I couldn’t firmly refuse with harsh words because Sepia was next to me.

“Yeah. I’ll step aside. Is that okay?”

Sepia left those words and started walking ahead.

It seems she took it as a request to move aside when I looked at her.

* * *

“Ha! I told you earlier. I’m much faster than Sepia.”

“Did you make plans with that woman?”

Sepia quickly walked, not stopping her feet, and sarcastically asked.

“No. I rejected her.”

“……… Hmph. Weren’t you thinking of dropping your eyes from that woman’s chest earlier?”

Sepia’s mouth twitched a little at the news of rejection.

“No. When did I look at her like that? And because of the mask, you can’t even tell where I’m looking.”

I pressed Sepia’s head firmly,

And Sepia’s steps came to a halt.

“Oh my, please walk a little slower. People might think we’re being chased by a hunter.”

“…………..”

Sephia just glared at me. She didn’t tell me to move my hand.

It feels healing to touch something on her head.

“………But why did you refuse?”

“I told you before that I would make you stronger, Sephia. It starts from this afternoon.”

“So, is that why you refused?”

“Could you see it that way? But even if I hadn’t made a promise with Sephia, I might have still refused.”

“Why? That girl you just talked to was pretty, wasn’t she?”

Hmm. Was she?

After hearing Sephia’s words, I recalled the face of the girl I had just spoken to.

“………………..”

I forgot.

All that remained in my memory was the overwhelmingly strong scent of perfume that was unpleasant.

“Is that so? In my opinion… No, anyone can see that Sephia is much prettier.”

“…………..”

After hearing my words, Sephia didn’t say anything and walked towards the special class.

When I was scratching my head, wondering if I made a mistake,

Sephia, who had been walking ahead, turned around and looked at me.
