18 – Reunion, but… (3)
The next day.
What happened underground went surprisingly quietly.
This is because there was practically no damage to the dormitory building, and the first-year commoner freshmen who gathered in the basement did not take any action after leaving the scene.
They just hoped they wouldn’t be called back by their seniors.
And indeed, their wish came true.
Haven’t killed Humpton halfway, but sadly, no one cared about his injuries because he had no real friends around him.
Since they don’t even talk about what happened, everyone just whispers that since it’s Humpton, he must have done something stupid somewhere and got beaten up.
The only thing I was worried about was the thugs of the Humpton gang, but it seemed that they, too, had decided to keep their mouths shut.
I don’t know if Humpton acted quickly or if he was frightened when he saw me beating him up.
– “Hey, did you feel the earthquake last night too?”
– “No? What happened?”
– “The ground suddenly shook.”
– “A building that will remain intact even after an earthquake, it is also Denbergen.”
Maybe that’s why the commotion seemed to pass quietly.
Of course, some astute students will have noticed that one of the famous seven wonders of Denbergen, the ‘door that never opens’, has been opened.
But there’s nothing to be gained by looking inside.
‘Because I took care of it.’
I thought as I put the dagger I had brought yesterday into my bosom.
It was still hard to accept Justina’s appearance, but it wasn’t a question that gave an answer when I tried to think about her now.
The only thing that is certain is that someone predicted my appearance and put the dagger there.
Although the identity was not clearly revealed, there was an expected candidate.
‘Did Justina use this to find me?’
But there were still a lot of questions.
Leaving a sentence in ancient script was probably openly targeting me.
Justina knew that I could read ancient texts.
However, even if it was a dragon, how would it have known about the future that I would enter Denbergen Academy?
No, did you know in advance that I would be reincarnated?
‘…… I don’t know.’
The more I thought about it, the more questions I had.
As I was frowning and trying to remember if I should look again, someone knocked on my door.
“Bocchan!”
When I opened the door, Charlotte greeted me with a lively and bright face unlike yesterday.
There were so many scenes like this that it made me feel as if I was in the Rehinar mansion instead of the Denbergen Academy.
As soon as Charlotte saw me, she was about to say something, but I hit her first.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes?”
“You were hurt yesterday.”
Charlotte suddenly turned her head slightly and she forced her tension up.
“Gwa, it’s okay! Bocchan, I’m originally strong! Did everything get better after a good night’s sleep?”
“Really?”
According to her Charlotte, she looked perfectly fine on the outside.
There was no sign of bruising on her, let alone a hint of fatigue.
I saw the torso headbutt yesterday, so I wondered how it could be so unconcerned.
“And yesterday, I was able to be of help, so that alone is good.”
“Saying that makes my guilt worse.”
“Ah, ahahahahaha! I am a servant of the Rehinar family. No matter how you handle it, it’s up to you, Bocchan?”
I nodded my head in an ambiguous mood.
In general, the servants of my family took great pride in serving Rehinar, but Charlotte was a bit unusual.
I’m not saying this formally, but the attitude that I can really do anything for Rehinar, like some kind of tool or furniture.
I was proud of it, but it was also a bit burdensome, but as I got used to it, there were times when I unconsciously took Charlotte’s attitude for granted.
‘The person who is always by your side is the most precious corporation.’
I once again reviewed the lessons I learned in my previous life.
“Ah, come to think of it, young boy. I forgot what I was going to say as soon as I opened the door. Unbelievable!”
“What is it?”
At the same time, Charlotte must have noticed that a gloomy expression was cast over my face, so Charlotte deliberately smiled broadly and saved the atmosphere.
“Our class starts today!”
***
As my older sister Luisa said, the education method at Denbergen Academy was very solid and systematic.
What was unique was that students could set their own learning path in any direction they wanted.
Basically, it is divided into magic and combat, but magic does not learn only magic, and combat does not only learn combat.
In other words, it was convergence education, or something like that.
“Ugh, is this really the best timetable? After all, asking for advice from the lady…….”
“No, stop it. If you ask my sister for advice, your timetable will be full of combat subjects.”
There were students who filled the timetable by distributing the magic lectures and combat lectures appropriately, and there were students like Luisa who only filled one lecture at a time.
Besides, there were many titles that looked interesting among liberal arts lectures, so I felt like I was picking out all kinds of food at a banquet.
Charlotte and I both belonged to the magic department, but we organized our timetable with a mix of combat and magic classes.
As a result, the first class of honor at the Denbergen Academy became the ‘Basic Magic’ lecture, which was conducted only for first-year students.
“Ugh, I’m really bad at fighting… I’m worried about the day when I have combat class….”
“That’s why I’m learning. Don’t worry too much Let’s focus on the magic class that will start soon.”
“It should be. Come on in and grab a seat. By the way, the young master must be looking forward to more combat lessons, right?”
“Me? Well… ….”
Contrary to Charlotte’s expectations, she did not have high expectations for the combat lecture.
Even if 500 years had passed since my death, how much progress would have been made in hand-to-hand combat.
I haven’t tested it yet, but I was confident that I could deal with most professors as long as I had physical strength.
If a new innovative combat method has appeared, it is not a big problem as you can learn it and go up one level.
“I am also looking forward to magic more.”
“Really?”
“Isn’t learning something you don’t know more fun than doing only what you are good at?”
On the other hand, the magic lecture was personally very interesting.
That’s right, magic 500 years ago had a really great status.
Of course, even now, wizards are socially respected, but in my previous life, when I lived, they were treated as agents of God.
It was a study that was only allowed to talented people among high-ranking nobles.
But now, it has become a world where magic has spread throughout society, starting with magic engineering supplies and magic scrolls.
‘The world has changed.’
Besides, in my previous life, I was an orphan and a miserable beggar.
Originally, she was an ordinary city kid, but after her mother was taken away by a pig-like aristocrat and her father died in the aftermath, she is left alone.
If it wasn’t for Mr. Philburton, he would have starved to death on the street.
But now, it was an era where academy or mage tower competed to take you first, regardless of status, as long as you had skills.
As evidence of that, about 40% of the classrooms that came in to listen to magic lectures were from commoners.
Of course, Charlotte, who had been gifted with magic since ancient times, was one of them. She
Maybe that’s why, she felt particularly strongly that the world had changed through magic more than anything else.
“Oh! Deneb, are you already here?”
“It’s Josef. Where have you been?”
“She went to the bathroom for a while. Anyway, there’s an empty seat right now.”
“Oh, yes. You can sit here.”
Meanwhile, the seat to my left remained empty while the other seats were full.
Freshmen who came into the classroom pretty quickly and occupied the best seats didn’t want to sit around them and instead sat in other seats.
I’m not entirely sure why, but my brilliant intuition told me that the other students were subtly avoiding the seat next to me.
‘Because I’m close with Joseph? No, it can’t be.’
I was a little puzzled because no matter how I look at it, there was no rational reason.
Perhaps it is simply my illusion.
I could say things went well because Joseph, who came into the lecture room late, was able to sit next to me.
“Uhm, but wait a minute. Deneb.”
“Why?”
“Something feels strange. In the seat next to you.”
“Is the seat next to me?”
But Joseph came running as if he was about to sit down, and suddenly stood in front of the seat to my left, glaring at the chair with a serious face.
I wondered what kind of show this was, but surprisingly he seemed serious.
Has anyone left a dirty mark?
“There is nothing strange about the appearance, but something… ….”
“Then the original woman will sit down. Unless it’s rude.”
As Joseph hesitated in front of the chair, a white-haired girl suddenly appeared from behind and took his seat.
Joseph and Charlotte both blinked.
There might be a reason why he sat in a seat that everyone avoids, and maybe a reason why Josef took his seat while hesitating to sit down…….
‘It’s pretty.’
She caught everyone’s attention simply with her looks.
Her pure white hair and skin that is as pure and transparent as her white clothes in winter.
And her big eyes reminiscent of a calm lake and long eyelashes gave off a mysterious atmosphere to the girl.
If she had a certain amount of beauty, she might have had girls who were jealous of her appearance or men who had romantic feelings in their hearts.

But at this moment, the female students instinctively sensed that they were beings on a different level, and the male students also intuited that they were beings that they could not dare to surpass.
I wasn’t too different from that impression, but I wanted to add one more sentence.
‘…… They look alike?’
For some reason, goosebumps appeared on her forearms.
Little Justina’s face from 500 years ago.
And the back of the adult Justina seen in the ordeal of fear.
Even though they only said one word, the way they spoke was similar.
Of course, Justina can freely use her polymorph magic, so she can change her human form somehow…….
“What are you staring at so intently? Was she even possessed by the original woman?”
Oops, I must have been staring at her to the point of being rude without realizing it.
Somehow feeling like she had committed a major sin, she turned her head and put her gaze back in front of her.
But while Joseph scratched her head and took another seat, I was still watching the white-haired girl.
‘Is it okay now?’
Then the moment I glanced at her again and rolled her eyes to see her side,
‘Heeheeik…… !’
From the side of the girl who told me not to stare at me, she actually stretched her neck and stared at my face.
I wasn’t even glancing at him, I was staring very openly.
As if analyzing each eye, nose, and mouth.
It was an intense gaze, as if magic rays were shooting from its eyes.
“mmm… ….”
The girl who looked like Justina squinted at my face and made a grotesque noise that I couldn’t understand the meaning of.
When the girl lifted her ass off her chair and came close to kissing me on the cheek, I couldn’t help but open her mouth.
“Um, over there… I have something to ask… ?”
“Huh.”
But she didn’t say anything and just went back to her seat and crossed her arms.
“…… ?”
“Mr. ?”
Charlotte and I met eyes and tilted our heads at the same time.
If Charlotte was simply frightened by the girl’s eccentric behavior, I was different.
All my senses foresaw the identity of that girl and said it was an emergency.
‘Justina…… ?’
My heart pounded noisily.
