Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines - Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines chapter 96

96 – Counterattack (8)⚝

I ran straight to the cathedral. When I handed the money to Francesco, he prayed with tears streaming down his face.

“Ah, this is…… Is it truly a temporal miracle?”

I was desperately looking for the Holy Mother, but somehow my stomach got upset. I did all the hard work, but why is God getting the glory? I think I know a little bit about why Ain hates religion. They resemble flower snakes who stay calm until the end.

“Please talk to the nuns club well.”

“Now that the money has been set up, the abbess will consider it positively.”

Permanently praise God, but this time hold my hand tightly. Seeing how hot his hands were, he seemed genuinely thrilled.

“Saint Rosa…… I am very deeply grateful. I’m a little lacking, but Brother Deman came to visit me, so I became very stable. I was always at a loss and worried about the priest and the nun, but it was all thanks to me. I will even offer you a congratulatory wish, so please continue to be well like the saintess and her friends. On really difficult days, if you tell me, I will give you a gift instead, so you can rely on me sometimes.”

─I can’t hate you.

They agreed to understand that Rosa and Francesco were weak people, so they had no choice but to live a poor life. Seeing that I can’t severely cut them off, I don’t know if I’ll be swayed by Kite in the future. Yes, my childhood friend has been forced to make sacrifices by everyone, so I have to make some concessions.

“I’m here to see Dick.”

I have to wait an hour even though I arrived on time. I didn’t have enough sleep, so I fell asleep sitting on the sofa in the drawing room. I woke up because someone knocked. Of course, I thought the student council executives were here.

“Sorry. You must have waited a long time, right?”

Dick Gallery approached in a friendly voice.

“I heard you have something to tell me?”

“Yes.”

“The meeting just ended and I need to eat something. Would it be all right if we could talk while eating?”

Looks like a woman. From the way he spoke to his actions, he was so toxic that it didn’t match his dignified appearance.

“I don’t care.”

He says he will buy it and guides him to a nearby place. As he passed the hallway, the eyes of the members glancing at him were reflected. It was a look of admiration and respect. Dick Gallery greeted everyone who made eye contact with her. In general, women responded more favorably.

─It’s not to the extent that you know your charms, but rather that you actively use them.

I’m not a nice guy.

“Oh, I have to settle the bill. Can it be 15 Luzen?”

As soon as I sat down at the table, I asked for only 10 luzen to say that. The remaining 5 Luzen belonged to Rita-senpai.

“I hear you often talk about yourself.”

“I’m not very friendly.”

“Really?”

Soon after, the waitress came out and brought us the food. It was an appetizer. Dick Gallery thanked me with a warm smile, then he asked me if it would be all right to dine with me. All these words and manners were so natural and polite that I was confused whether this man was really Jean and Pan’s cousin.

“Rita seems to have a good opinion of you.”

“Doesn’t it make Dick look better for you?”

He smiled and turned around.

“Rita stands out wherever she goes.”

“It is prettier than Chan Gallery.”

Let’s keep pressing it, and it shows a little bit of discomfort.

“Chan is pretty too.”

“Compared to Rita-senpai?”

“It’s kind of like comparing her cousin’s appearance to others.”

“Senpai Dick, I don’t like talking in circles.”

“Yes.”

“If you leave Chan Gallery as it is, your reputation will be ruined. Will you leave it alone?”

Dick cuts the meat gracefully.

“I have to endure that much.”

“Did you know that I was blindsided in the basic swordsmanship lecture today?”

From noble mtl dot com

“No.”

“Dick oppa keeps saying something, but I’ve never heard of it, and I can’t even guess.”

Don’t just know the two of us, let me know a little bit, so I take a long breath.

“We have a unique culture in our combat system. Looking at the current situation, Chan has to bear the burden of betraying her classmates and her seniors for the time being. Everyone will do naughty things until they’re offended, but not for long. It’s because I’m holding on and I’m the enemy of the gallery family no matter what anyone says. It is best to endure silently and not resist.”

“For what?”

“This is a necessary process to become the student council president right after me.”

“How can Chan become the student council president when he has older brothers?”

“I’m in the process of fixing the school rules. If it is revised, you can run for the first year.”

Even if she enters the second year, her upperclassmen will still be there. Even if that is possible, will her academy run properly? The student council will be divided and will not function properly. It’s a story that has no reality whatsoever.

“I don’t know about that.”

“Yes.”

“You don’t have any personal feelings for Chan, do you?”

“No.”

“There seems to be him, but do you know everything?”

“I know.”

“Then shouldn’t she at least tell her true feelings?”

“Deman von Pong.”

Dick’s voice was heavy, unlike before. I did not back down and faced him who took off his mask.

“Did you ever say Chan was unhappy?”

“No.”

“Then why are you doing this?”

“They keep making excuses for seniors and don’t even want to discuss it with me.”

“Chan must have wanted to.”

“I think you’re going to get a little angry at this point, but is her senior going to use her cousin only as a means for her to gain power?”

I clenched my fists and complained of injustice.

“I’m a stone that rolled in anyway, so I’ll say I’ll solve it with money. But, when is this all over? At that time, to be honest with Chan, I have no interest in you and I have no intention of developing a romantic relationship. If you say this, what will happen to him? I think it’s a little selfish, so I’m going to go to the middle of the day. Senpai, this is to hold her female heart hostage and manipulate it.”

“That’s for Chan to decide, and all of her current reforms are for him.”

“A senior seizing power?”

“Yes.”

Unexpectedly, it was a pure positive, so my pulse went numb.

“We have to change this place. If we keep going like this, we’ll bequeath a messy student council.”

“I heard from Rita-senpai that the second year was the Golden Horseman, not the third year?”

“Right.”

“But what kind of reform? Poor seniors must be jealous of talented juniors and take discipline!”

“No.”

“I don’t like being deeply involved in things like this. I don’t care about politics, and I don’t want to know who will be the captain of Heoden. But, since this is related to my pair, I need to listen to your thoughts.”

“I have a tight schedule today too.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to do something that can be canceled?”

“I guess so. I don’t know why you’re so angry, but we’ll see each other in the future.”

After finishing the meal, he led me to the student president’s office. After canceling all plans for the day, I quietly get out of the car.

“You seem to see me as crazy for power struggles.”

“I will listen and judge.”

“It is impossible to mobilize the majority without a cause.”

He handed over the car. After taking a sip, it felt a little refreshing in my mouth. It was definitely good tea leaves.

“Chan is my cousin. I can’t accept whatever he has in mind.”

“Then you should speak.”

“While I’m at the academy, I’m letting myself do as I please. Anyway, when I graduate from here, I will meet someone from my family and get married. So, what reason would you dare to trample on her cousin’s wishes and affections?”

“There is even less reason to use it.”

“You don’t even know the circumstances and start criticizing, the third graders including me. That’s right, the seniors in the combat field. They’re more idiots than you could have imagined. My classmates are really, really, really, really, really, really horrible people.”

—Yes?

Let’s just roll our eyes.

“It was really hard to bring it up here because there was no answer. I tried to do well somehow, but it was full of absurd and substandard things to the point of being reversed by my juniors. I didn’t have the skills, so I didn’t have authority and I ran alone, only I shined, and my motives were beaten here and there. It rolls like this, but who wouldn’t overturn the plate? Honestly, my classmates, if you ask to meet today, there will be two out of ten who will mistake it for Friday. If I graduate like this, what will happen to Heoden? Can today’s second graders pass on a good culture?”

He let out a deep sigh and continued.

“Jean and Pan are only interested in politics, so they probably don’t care about the development of the academy. They always were Effort is far less than natural talent. It’s unfortunate. I’m superior in talent and effort, but being ignored and weak in power just because I’m a collateral. It’s not so funny that it’s to the point of resentment.”

The beast’s mask fell off.

“I can’t pass on a trashy legacy. If Jean and Pan come to power, this place will be a real mess. First-years are already turning that way, and a handful of professors have joined us. No, to be precise, it would be more accurate to say that he lost enemies with me. Shall I tell you why Carlson hates me?”

“You have to tell me.”

“The cadets proposed to establish a system for evaluating teachers’ lectures.”

“What is that?”

“Students grade lectures given by professors and give grades. Only in this way will the juniors next year choose the lecture to choose a good professor. For Heoden to become a prestigious school like Mendator and Orgiola, the system must be reorganized around students. It’s only possible if we drive out all those who have skills like Carlson but only care about themselves.”

─How far should I believe?

No, how much do I have to understand and accept?

“I’m not interested in that.”

“I guess so.”

“Please talk to Chan. Since I don’t like you, I told you to discuss it with the pair from now on.”

“Why?”

“If you don’t like this, don’t give me another order. Let me judge and act for myself.”

“Chan wouldn’t want that?”

“Because I want it. I don’t plan on pairing it with someone in the middle, so if you have any information I don’t know, you can pass it on through Chan. If this is an alliance, at least we should trade transparently. If you can’t, I’m going to stick to Heoden’s Boar. Coincidentally, Ain changed his mind and wanted to fight again.”

I have no intention of falling behind with Dick either. Because I, who turned Jean and Pan into enemies, know that I can’t get along well here if I reject the entire gallery family. Political unity was necessary, at least while in Heoden. Dick touched the glass.

“Okay. I’ll accept everything except exposing Chan’s heart.”

“This is not a request.”

“Yes.”

“He got hit a lot today, so please buy me a meal at least for dinner. You don’t have a schedule anyway, do you?”

Dick chuckled.

“What did Chan like?”

“Sorbet.”

Somehow, I left the student council room feeling sad about this question and answer. A b*tch like an asshole. What do you do if you get good grades? Looking at how foolish and incompetent he is, there is no such thing as a real female knight in a fairy tale.
