Madman in a Fantasy World - Madman in a Fantasy World chapter 92

92. Help me

the day after the incident.

We were taking a break at the hostel.

Naturally, such a major incident occurred, but there was no way the academy would return to normal.

“Hmmm~ Salary Lupine honey~”

“…But why are you two fine?”

It was a question from Luna who saw Yui sitting at the desk eating sweets and me lying on the bed.

Luna, the only one of us who was injured, was wrapped in bandages on her arms, legs, and sides, and it was obvious that she suffered all alone.

“You can be fine, but if you have complaints, it won’t be okay if you get stronger.”

“It’s true that we fought…?”

“I’m soooo! It was hard!”

Yui said as if she was asking for praise.

But from what I heard yesterday, it seems like they played rock-paper-scissors.

“I did fight too.”

I didn’t fight Alter, but I fought someone else instead.

But come to think of it, wasn’t I the one who fought the most?

I’m a hex as well as a demon.

Luna, while you were sleeping in your chair, I was fighting a demon?

“It’s okay. Just rest, because the academy will be closed for another three days.”

“Really… as Luke-sama said, it’s like a battlefield…”

“Look at that.”

“Even when I was active as an adventurer and hunting, I had never received an injury of this magnitude.”

In fact, even in the original work, many events do not occur in such a short period of time.

If it’s an event once a month, the academy will be closed first because all the students will die before it’s finished.

But maybe it’s because there are two possessors in the same world who say that even if there’s just one, the story gets weird, so the story progresses not twice as fast, but four times faster.

“This is Made in Heaven…?”

“Yes?”

“Nothing.”

“It’s good to rest, though.”

“To be exact, it’s just us taking a break.”

The academy is closed for three days for the treatment of students, but the dean and professors are busy without a break.

There is post-processing of the dead students, and the dean and professor are busy clarifying the responsibility for not preventing this even though both eyes are open.

An example of something similar in a previous life would be a press conference.

Of course, I won’t go crazy.

Even though Lucia, the dean, is kind-hearted, it’s more scary when good people get angry.

On the day Lucia can’t stand it while spinning the bomb like crazy, Meteor will be thrown into the territory of the person who exploded the bomb.

Then the territory would disappear from the map overnight. Along with the family crest. That’s why everyone is watching carefully so that they don’t fall victim to the bombing.

The reason why only we can rest in such a situation is because of the title of temporary professor.

Outsiders don’t even know that I’m a professor here.

It’s not that this world has the Internet, and it’s not like news that you’ll get stuck in the newspapers just because there’s a temporary professor.

Of course, it is impossible for outsiders to inform me of my news.

And the regrettable thing is always the school side, not the invited professor.

In the first place, the fact that I was invited as a visiting professor wasn’t called because I felt sorry for myself, so I just had to quit the moment someone said something.

Wasn’t that what it was like to be a visiting professor?

In my case, as soon as even one damn person comes out, I’m going to kill the professor right away.

-smart.

While I was thinking about something else, someone knocked on the door where we were.

“who is this?”

Who comes and disturbs the honey-like break?

There is no one who can come to us at this time.

If I had to choose, there would be Lucia, but she would be busy without a break right now.

I won’t have time to come here.

“Yui. Check who’s here.”

“yes~”

Hurriedly, Yui ran to the door and opened it wide.

“Who are you?”

But the door was wide open and I could see someone outside, so I knew who it was without even asking.

Two hair colors I’ve never seen in anyone else, yellow eyes that seem to shine in the evening.

And one arm that was bandaged and immobilized because of a recent incident.

It was Leechee.

She entered the room and stopped in front of me lying down.

Then he looked down at me with a bewildered expression.

“Isn’t this the professor’s residence? How did a guy who isn’t even a professor get in?”

“…because no one is at the entrance.”

is it real?

No matter how much the professors are all away, does it make sense for students to come and go in and out of the professor’s quarters like this?

Then, shall I do one more empty house robbery?

“So why are you here?”

“·······.”

“Why are you here?”

“·······.”

what is it boy

Why did you come to me because you had something to say and then become a dumb person who ate honey?

After having a meaningless confrontation for a while, she, who had been biting her lips for a while, managed to speak.

“Should I…?”

“what?”

“What should I do now…?”

What kind of nonsense are you talking about when you come out of nowhere?

When I looked at it as if I was talking nonsense, Richie gave strength to one arm that was fine and spoke while trembling.

“I tried so hard, but I lost in the end. I couldn’t do anything even though they mocked me in front of my eyes…”

Liche said, lowering her gaze with half-dead eyes that made even the onlooker faint.

In a word, your confidence has been shattered.

Why are you talking so hard round and round?

“Now what should I do…?”

I’m not a careers teacher, so why ask me that?

Usually, what a person who says such things hopes for is three revisions.

I want you to sympathize with me, I want you to help me, or if not both, I want you to comfort me.

But the first is impossible.

Can a lion sympathize with an ant? How can the strong sympathize with the weak complaining that they are weak?

The second has already been done.

It wasn’t enough to achieve what she wanted, but it made her grow to the point where she was in line with the other students.

So what about the last third?

Unfortunately, consolation is not my specialty.

It’s something I always think about, but I think comforting is also an area of talent. What’s the point of asking the person who helped you in the first place to comfort you?

Right now, Richie doesn’t want the first and the second. It’s not that I want the third, but the third is probably the better option. In fact, there is nothing the people around her can do for her other than comforting her.

“Why don’t you go and get comfort from Arthur instead of me?”

If it were him, he would pick flowers and offer all sorts of comforting words to raise his crush.

I don’t know what you want to hear, but why are you coming to me and saying that?

“I’ve been curious about it before, but why do you keep tying me up with him?”

“Because you are her heroine.”

“What is a heroine?”

“The female lead in the novel.”

We’ve talked about novels before.

At that time, I only talked about the Riche family and nothing else.

I don’t really want to hide it, but it’s annoying to say the same thing over and over again.

therefore.

– Clap.

They clapped as if calling a waiter.

Then Luna, whom I’m used to now, replaced me.

Based on the information she had heard from me, Luna explained one by one so that Lee could understand.

Of course, I didn’t know the details, so I explained some of the information with my thoughts added, but I didn’t stop it because the thoughts were mostly correct.

Every time Luna recited a sentence, Richie’s expression changed every moment. The explanation continued for about 5 minutes, and after Luna’s last sentence, she asked me.

“Is that true?”

She seemed to be thinking that maybe even Luna and Yui were being fooled.

That must mean what Luna said was shocking.

“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”

so he said so

There’s no reason to explain it to someone who doesn’t believe it.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

My mouth hurts too.

“I’m… destined to be that guy’s lover…?”

“Uh. You also had sex with him.”

“That’s a lie!!”

Is it an escape from reality? Poopy Pookie.

“ear.”

“what···?”

“What is it, your erogenous zone?”

It’s all from the novel.

Liche, who has a quick ear for Arthur.

“Lies…! How do I know erogenous zones that I don’t even know about!”

“If you’re curious, did you touch it later when you masturbate?”

“Don’t do that!!”

A man can comfort himself, why are you so shy?

Where is a person without sexual desire, rather, self-consolation is an essential act to prevent sexual crimes?

“Then, then the reason I can’t win is because everything has a fixed ending…?”

“I told you. You can’t win no matter what you do.”

no, i can win If you make an unimaginable effort.

Even Luke, who doesn’t know where he would be or what he’s doing, became evil after I possessed him.

But you’re already too late for that.

As I was looking up at her with the eyes of a sage who knew everything, she took a step closer to me as if she had made up her mind.

“…then I’ll tell you directly.”

Help me.

Richie said so.

“what?”

“Help me. You, not Arthur.”

It’s annoying, pay, etc. aside from that.

It was just amazing.

Why?

Richie would rather die if he died, because he wasn’t a character asking anyone for help.

‘If this is a change, is it a change?’

Of course, he asked for help to get stronger a while ago, but mostly it was a sign that he asked for information, or that he wanted to train himself to kill Hex, or indirectly ask for help because he would catch it himself.

But the meaning of what he said now was to ask me to kill Hex, to ask for direct help.

A stubborn character who never asked for help in his life.

It was the first time I asked for help from someone else.

“Yeah, I hate it~”

Is there any reason I would do that?

dean’s office.

Lucia sighed, resting her forehead on the table piled with papers.

“Sigh···.”

She hadn’t been able to sleep since the night before.

She is accustomed to not sleeping because she often did it during her adventurer days, but her mental fatigue from having a mountain of things to do while staying up all night, such as deaths and compensation for bereaved families, is sore. was

It was the moment when she leaned back against the backrest to take a break.

-smart.

someone had come

Right after that, the professor’s voice came from outside.

“Dean. The president of Zwei Academy has come to visit.”

Zwei Academy.

Apart from the Journal Academy, where Lucia is the dean, there was one more academy in the empire.

Of course, there are many students, but there were too many to accommodate in one academy, so the empire created another academy.

The dean of such a place came to visit unexpectedly. without a single word.

Originally, both sides are busy people, so it would be appropriate to set a date and meet through an agreement in advance.

Lucia had some idea why she had come.

“Come on in.”

After giving permission, the door immediately opened and a middle-aged woman in her 50s entered.

“Hoho, long time no see. Dean Lucia.”

“It’s been a while, Dean Bernice.”

That middle-aged woman was the dean of Zwei Academy, Bernice Somerset.

Lucia, who led her to the serving table, sat down across from her, she said.

“It must be very difficult because there are deaths.”

Lucia recognized the sneer in those words.

Bernice had animosity towards Lucia from the first time they met.

Lucia expected that it might be a feeling that comes from an inferiority complex.

If it was usual, she would be jealous again, she would have been cute.

All in all, it was Lucia who felt bad when Bernice talked about the death of a student as if mocking it.

That said, I’m not in a position to say anything because I couldn’t do anything until the student died.

There was no absurdity like that.

You are the same opponent as yourself.

I somehow managed to come out victorious, but it took too much time, and the case was already over.

“Rather than that, wasn’t it during the ‘that’ event soon?”

Bernice said in trouble.

The ‘that’ event she refers to is a competition held around this time of year.

Originally, it was an event similar to a festival where the academy selected students by grade to compete in the competition.

Current students at Journal Academy are in no position to do that.

All of them were injured and were busy receiving treatment.

“…I can’t help it. I have no choice but to let go this year.”

“Hmm… why don’t you listen to my thoughts?”

“What do you think?”

“It’s a game between the professors, not the students.”

What she meant was that instead of the students we had originally planned to do, we would have the professors from each academy as players.

“Do you think it would be good to motivate students?”

“…but, our professors are also injured.”

“There’s still some time left before the competition, right? The professors think it’ll be possible to treat it enough until then.”

Is it really necessary to compete like that?

That’s also in a situation where one side can’t proceed normally.

The lies are clearly visible.

It seems like she’s trying to somehow lead her in a direction that’s advantageous to her side, but it wasn’t Lucia who would let her go.

She focused on the word ‘professor’.

“If you agree to some conditions, I will do it.”

“Hmm… Let’s listen.”

“It’s nothing special. The match will be played in a grand match, and we won’t be held responsible for anything that happens during the match after the match is over.”

“Of course you know we’re not participating, right?”

The dean does not participate. In the first place, the gap between the dean and the professor is large, and they are aware of each other’s skill gap.

“Absolutely.”

“Okay, then let’s do the duel on the scheduled date.”

Looking at Bernice who readily agreed, Lucia smiled inwardly.
