Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines - Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines chapter 56

56 – Crack (5)⚝

After leaving the cathedral, we headed to Enboza Mensi’s lab. She sent a letter asking Kite to eat, but she couldn’t afford it, so she only replied.

「I’m busy, today’s teaching assistant in sorcery.」

I’m not a kid who can’t even eat dinner alone, so I’ll take care of the packaging for finding friends. Senior Trey had already borrowed two books and was studying alone. To say I got hurt a little thanks to Tou.

“Wounds?”

“I am on my way after receiving treatment from the saintess.”

It’s a disapproving expression. I asked her to show it, so I rolled up her arm to confirm that there was no problem.

“Be careful.”

“Oh, nagging again.”

I only brought toiletries. I’m going to go right after taking a bath, what kind of bath is it to meet a professor? Then, I wondered what to say when I asked if I should go while smelling the scent.

“Come tomorrow?”

“Yes, feel free to use it here today.”

If I call my girlfriend, she’ll pretend she doesn’t know, so I fit the toe to my forehead.

“Stop talking nonsense and go.”

“Let’s eat snails next time.”

I’ve been to Enboza Mensi’s lab before, so I arrived right away. Knock knock on the door, there’s only a human presence and no response. The occupancy sign meant that he was inside, so he cautiously opened the door.

“Are you here?”

Ria is sitting on the floor with the alcohol.

“What is all this?”

“You don’t know when you see it, aren’t you drinking?”

“It bothers me.”

Leah sprints towards me and pretends to break her glass. Looking at it, she has even set up Lia and Bedivere. What are you doing with the kids? Looking at you from a distance, you say you’re being cheeky and have a drink.

“I have to work.”

“Because my drinking buddy is also a teaching assistant’s job?”

She had no reason to drink every glass, so she drank Bedivere. What can I do all night now?

“I have to rearrange the materials according to the draft of next week’s lecture.”

“What is the subject?”

“Oh, you’ve done some work.”

Rolling over to Reddit, she replied that she was dedicated to posting reports to the vigilante. Enboza Mensi said that he was preparing a lecture on spirit, and that he would discuss the possible side effects of driving magic and the theoretical considerations associated with it. Let’s just say it’s very catchy.

“So, you’re asking me to summarize the effect that the regular consumption of magic drive has on the body and soul?”

“Exactly. I’m going to have a drink, so organize the materials in order.”

“You have to tell me where the things are.”

“Lea knows. Ask me.”

I wonder what kind of professor there is, and I see that she is really sitting on the floor and refilling her glass.

“Lia?”

“I don’t know.”

Of course, what the hell does he know?

“Professor?”

“I don’t know.”

He said he could teach me if I drink too.

“Did the last assistant work like this?”

“I don’t know, why are you talking about a kid you already cut?”

Letting out a sigh and flipping through her documents, Lia comes to my side and watches. She looks very boring, she shakes her head when I ask if she will help. She plays she has to play Just repeating those words is getting in the way.

“Professor, does he want to play with you?”

“It gets quieter when you carry it on your back.”

“Are you serious?”

“Of course not. I am a man who does not know jokes!”

I laughed lightly by myself and fought well today, but I can handle the aftermath. I bluffed, saying, “There are professors who are good at teaching assistants, but I can’t do it.” She asked Lia if she really wanted to get on her back, as she kept flirting and attracting her attention with her bizarre magic.

“You came alone?”

“Yes, I came alone.”

“It is good to come together!”

“My friend is busy.”

How long do we have to have these strange conversations?

“Get up. Do you want?”

Nodded. There is nothing difficult about carrying Annie, who is about nine years old. I get down on her knees and put her arms around my neck. Because Enboza Menshi does not hesitate to do shameful things like carrying a grown-up girl on his back.

“Aren’t you fooled?”

From noble mtl dot com

Like a widow with a child, she wandered around the lab looking for data. Even if the order is jumbled, the necessary documents are plugged here and there. All documents containing the word regular were brought and spread out on the floor.

She clung like a monkey as Leah pulled her legs together to keep her from falling. Had she been a kite, she would have hardened her lower leg already, but she was a child, so it didn’t matter. It’s good that she doesn’t pee, but she must be aware of that.

“Please also tell me the message you want to convey to the students.”

“What do you think is not the level of Heoden here?”

“Anyways.”

They said that they would strengthen the logic of Yujae theory based on the phenomenon of magical power depletion, so I asked if they would exclude the theism-related content. Nod. It’s my lecture anyway, so I’m going to be immature, saying that it doesn’t matter how I teach it.

“Shouldn’t everyone be given room to think?”

“I don’t know, then you, the smart one, prepare yourself.”

I cut the document that fell on the floor into introduction, body, and conclusion units and read them. It was my own trick to quickly grasp the gist of the report. In general, the argument in the introduction and the conclusion at the end tended to contradict each other. After classifying it according to its nature, I divided it into the theism and the materialism and read it again.

“It was roughly divided like this. This is the theory of Yujae, and this is the logic that reinforces theism.”

“Do you know what mana depletion is?”

You explain everything you heard from Trey-senpai.

“Then don’t you think you should organize that too and give it to me?”

“Professor alone can explain. Because even Trey-senpai can do it. Hey!”

“Oh my, did you just yell at me in plain language?”

“No, Leah.”

I was dozing off, so I told him to hang upright. If I don’t fold my limbs, I don’t like the fact that I’ll fall down on the sofa.

“What kind of teaching assistant is this?”

“Well done. Take Leah out and get something to eat. Put the credit in my name.”

“Yes?”

I can’t believe it’s amazing how things went back to normal in an instant.

“Since all you have to do is categorize, I have to read carefully from here on out anyway.”

“How long can I come?”

“It would be perfect by the time I miss you.”

“Then, I’ll be back on Monday during the introductory lecture on sorcery.”

After bowing down, he fires a fireball at the edge of the door.

“Do you know what that is?”

“I don’t know.”

“The Gates of Hell. If you really don’t want to be roasted, come back soon.”

“Should I buy you a drink when you come?”

“My God, how talented I was!”

I wanted to have another drink while congratulating myself, so I carried Lia out of the bottle. I have eyes to see, so now I have eyes to get down. It comes along well with her two feet. What the heck is this kid? It is neither inferior nor normal.

“Why are you here?”

“Anne asked me to come.”

“You can just rest in the dormitory.”

“It is big there. Wide. Alone lonely.”

Leah’s back drooped as she trudged. She made sure no one was around.

“Do you want to climb up if your legs hurt?”

She nods. She deliberately went back to where the forest trail was, so she didn’t run into any cadets. It was late, so she didn’t even have a place to eat, so she bought a lot of packaged food. The bar was open, so she put two bottles of beer in front of Mensi and took them.

“By the way, what’s wrong with your tone?”

“I don’t know.”

“I don’t understand why it ends with everything.”

“Papa and Mama go.”

Speak only that far and crush your lips with a teddy bear. I could guess without hearing more, so I just nodded my head. Leah’s steps slowed as she walked with her beer in both hands. She waited hesitantly in front of the research building.

“Should I walk more?”

“I get scolded.”

“I can do it once I am done.”

The professor who offers the kid a drink won’t scold me for taking more walks. I led Leah to my favorite run. We walked together for about twenty minutes and came back. Hearing my footsteps, Enboza Mensi lit the door frame again.

“Welcome to Hell!”

“Yes, thank you very much.”

When I handed him the beer, he cursed at me, saying, “Where is that crazy bastard who buys something without a taste head?”

“Did the newly hired assistant do that?”

“I have committed a mortal sin.”

If you’re happy, come and see. I did a good job of categorizing in a short time, but the two papers are not good for lecture material. If you work this way, you can’t even pay the assistant’s salary.

“How much do you pay?”

─I need money.

“About 10 luzen a month is possible.”

Eight silver coins. Since it’s such a small amount of money, he gets sullen quickly, so if you take good care of Lia, he’ll give you up to ten. It’s because you can play with a competent professor like yourself for free, so isn’t it attractive?

“I have to play with the professor, so I have to get more.”

“Oh, oh, oh, how are you going to play with me?”

He asked if he was going to do everything he was told, so I asked him if he was already doing it. When I asked him to tell me the name of a bar I often go to, he looked at me with twinkling eyes. He’s much better than the last assistant, but he said he’s worried that he might fall for him.

“I will take care of Lia.”

With this, the deal is established. He asked me to clean up while he ate, so I put Leah on her couch and cleaned her room. It was messy to the point of being a bit nasty, but it couldn’t be said that it was a space for women to use.

“Noisy.”

Looks like Lia woke up. When she told me to go to bed, she opened her eyes wide and laid her body on her side.

“It’s a parrot.”

“Yes, parrot.”

“Are you a good parrot?”

“It must be a slave parrot. I’m cleaning, so you just sleep.”

Leah reached out her hand towards me.

“It’s cold.”

I brought a dress that was roughly hanging on a hanger and covered it. He closed his eyes with a comfortable expression, and told me not to go anywhere but to stay by his side. Of course, I couldn’t convey it this elegantly. Next to sit down don’t go I said it like a dog, but I understood it perfectly.

“Where am I going as a slave?”

Complaining, Betsy smiles while wringing his palms.

“Mr. Parrot is fun.”

“Wasn’t the last teaching assistant fun?”

Nodded.

“I only see Ann. He won’t play with me.”

And then.

“No one is interested in me. Sad.”

She was still squeezing her hands with her eyes wide open.

“Shall I pick you up when you go home after work?”

“Yes.”

Her smile was so clear that she just looked at her, so let’s see En and Menshi returned. She looked at me with a very angry expression, so I explained that it wasn’t like that. Sniff sniff, sniff her nose and smell sweet.

“It has a stinky smell that only children like.”

“What kind of smell is that?”

“Yes, something fishy like the smell of chestnut flowers.”

I covered Lia’s ears with her hands. Enboza Mensi giggled, and now that he is 17, he knows everything. The other day, he said he was nineteen, and a lie stuck to his lips.

“What shall we do now?”

“All you have to do is sit by my side all night and listen to what I am saying.”

That was all. In other words, I mortgaged weekend evenings through Sunday mornings to this drunkard.
