22 – Professor??? (1)
Palace meeting.
This meeting, where the king invited and hosted his subjects and key figures of the kingdom, was an important event that determined the direction of the country.
Therefore, it was also obvious that the results of the meeting could have a great impact on the story.
At the beginning of the original work, it just ends with, ‘Oh, there’s that kind of meeting.’
However, depending on the direction of the game, you could hear rumors about the meeting from the princess or Eve in the middle part.
And if you become strong enough in the latter half, you can even participate directly.
‘Of course, it’s not even the beginning yet.’
This is a conference where only the kingdom’s biggest figures are eligible to participate.
At this point, Ern would at best be able to hear related news from Rogera.
“It was about time. But it opened faster than expected.”
“It must be because of the attack incident.”
“That’s right.”
Although it was only a new fact to Ern, who knew the whole story, the appearance of black magic was a big event in its own way.
“Ern. How do you think this will turn out?”
Rogera asked Ern, waving her letter paper around.
There was no problem with asking the question itself. Even though he was a promising member of the school, it was okay to just ask the person involved in the attack.
“Wouldn’t it be enough to entrust the investigation to people in the magic world, have the intelligence department look into it, delay the announcement, but stop the parties involved?”
“What about information control?”
“…It’s probably hard to believe the news that the Duke family was attacked by an evil warlock.”
-Eve Eisenbern was attacked!
-What!? Who on earth would do that!
-The warlocks did that!
-That…. It looks like you took some magic reagent that you shouldn’t have.
If a grown adult, not even a child, said something like that, it was obvious that he would be treated like a crazy person.
An evil witchcraft that appears in fairy tales.
The awareness of black magic was still at this level. If the victim had not been Eisenbern, the court meeting would have been impossible.
Rosera thought deeply after hearing Ern’s opinion.
‘… ‘I know it pretty well.’
It was Rogera who had participated in the palace meetings several times. Therefore, she was able to predict how the kingdom’s leading figures would act.
And the prediction was consistent with what Erne said.
“Then what about the Academy?”
“Academy?”
“…?”
As doubt appeared on Ern’s face, Rogera, who had been expecting a clear answer again, was taken aback.
“Why does the Academy come up at the palace meeting?”
“…It’s because of the combat practice class, right?”
“Ah.”
After hearing this, Ern thought, “Oh my gosh.”
‘Come to think of it, Rose Ra never used her parachute.’
There were no students of Agnes Sensia who came from the north, and there were no suddenly appointed professors.
Ern was overlooked because he focused too much on the original story.
“I would be grateful if the Tower Lord insisted on the necessity of combat training classes.”
‘… Even if he knows, he doesn’t know.’
Rosera decided to put her doubts aside and ask the question she had been saving.
“Anyway, would you like to go to the royal road with me?”
The woman named Rose was suspecting that Erne was under some kind of ban on her.
So he decided that, to the best of his ability, he should first do him a favor and make several suggestions.
‘Even if there is a risk of the taboo being revealed, if you want, I am willing to-‘
“Oh, it’s okay.”
It was a sharp rejection.
“……”
Meanwhile, Ern did not feel the need to go.
‘Even if I go, I can’t participate in the meeting.’
Even if Rosera somehow forced herself to call her to a meeting, it was obvious that the excessive attention she would receive afterwards would be a problem.
There was another reason that was more important than anything else.
‘My point!’
Although the royal road wasn’t that far away, she still had to think about spending a few days comfortably.
‘There are times that come and go… When you arrive, you’ll have a small banquet at the palace, right? Plus, if you calculate the meeting time separately….’
And in the meantime, there were an abundance of requests that could be made at Kagon.
If a quest to go to the royal capital with Rose Ra had appeared, she would have even held on to her robe and begged him to take her with her.
But since her quest window was also quiet, it seemed wise for her to stay in Kagon and build up her points in advance.
“…Okay.”
‘What is it? ‘Why?’
When Rogera answered poignantly, Ern added hastily.
“Oh, I really wanted to go, but unfortunately I also have to prepare for class. Next time I get the chance, I will definitely accompany you.”
Rosera smiled lightly and said at her calm answer.
“Not only are you quick to cast, but you are also quick to make excuses?”

“hahahaha….”
Ern scratched her head sheepishly. After spending her time with Leah, she felt that somehow her own shamelessness had increased.
“Well, you must be pretty busy too.”
“So, by the way, there’s something I’d like to ask you about this.”
Erne roughly described Lia’s level.
“Hmm… I guess I’m just at the level of a first-year student? But there are still a lot of shortcomings.”
“Is that so?”
“It takes about 5 seconds?”
Ern nodded her head.
“It looks like he’s a child who has been well-trained through practical experience. You can’t say he’s slow… In fact, if you master low-circle magic that is easy to calculate, you can immediately cast it.”
“It’s mastery….”
“Keep practicing and studying.”
“Aha. By the way, is practical experience important?”
“Of course. Nothing improves your skills more than actually playing.”
Erne felt like she had a rough outline of her future classes.
“Then at what level can we evaluate it as a good level?”
“Hmm… at that age….”
Rosera raised her hand and touched her face, recalling her own childhood.
“…Well? Shouldn’t you be able to instantly cast most 1st circle spells and multi-cast at least two or three?”
Those were words that she would have grabbed by the back of her neck if anyone else had heard them. But Ern accepted her words without any doubt.
“Oh, I see. I understand.”
At that moment, the difficult fate of the first year students at Kagon Academy was almost decided.
It was a tragedy brought about by two wizards, one who used random skills and was spotlighted as a genius.
***
Several days have passed.
In the meantime, Ern lived a busy life, as if running on a treadmill. As a result, her time went by like crazy.
[Current points held: 19,000P]
‘Point angle is quite difficult.’
When playing the game, it was just a routine, but because he had to run and move his body, the fatigue was different.
However, there were no major quests related to the main story or named characters, so there was no choice.
Erne received her call and came back to her teaching building to receive her faculty certificate.
The professor’s staff seemed busier than the last time she visited. In the midst of her frantically filling out and delivering documents in the office, Ern was barely able to find the person in charge.
“Hello.”
“Are you a student? I’m sorry, but administrative matters are handled through the student council…”
“Ah, I’m a professor. My name is Ern, and I’m here to receive your faculty certificate today.”
Her employee realized his mistake and apologized.
“Ah… I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
Erne knew that she was unusually young.
‘I feel like something like this will happen more in the future….’
Meanwhile, the employee took out the documents and teacher ID card prepared in advance from the drawer.
“Here is your staff ID, Professor.”
“Thank you.”
[Ern, full professor at Kagon Academy]
‘Oh….’
I felt strange. She always had the title ‘Kagon Academy Student’ because she played games.
‘It feels like I’m working at my alma mater after graduating… ?’
Erne thought as she walked around the campus.
‘Anyway, now is the perfect time to tour the school.’
It was just before the semester started.
As the dormitory slowly opened, her students began to show up little by little. But compared to when she was in school, the number was still small.
Erne decided that now would be a good time as the odds of running into a student or professor were low.
She felt like if she went around the academy during the semester, she would hear people say, ‘Doesn’t that parachute have anything to do?’
‘The timing is good. Moreover, there is no restricted area where I cannot enter.’
The original version was a system in which areas of the academy were slowly opened depending on the period or grade. Therefore, even if you knew that there was an item beyond that door, it was common to have to hold back.
However, his current status is a professor.
‘No one can stop me!’
Now, I was able to enter places that I would normally have to secretly infiltrate openly and confidently.
‘Isn’t this a cheat key?’
Ern began walking with her light steps.
***
The warehouse door squeaked open.
“Cough!”
When Ern opened the door and entered, she was blown away by the accumulated dust.
The warehouse was a space filled with faint light coming through the windows and the resulting dark shadows. In some ways, it was a cozy place, but in other ways, it was an eerie place.
Objects of various shapes and sizes were piled up here and there. It seemed like a maze of objects.
Empty bottles and reagent flasks, magic wands with missing jewels, large and small boxes, and something whose purpose I can’t figure out.
This warehouse was a place to store various magic tools and teaching materials used at the academy.
Despite the chaos, Ern made his way through the forest of objects and advanced into the warehouse.
We eventually arrived in front of a desk with a broken leg.
‘You were in here, right?’
Ern reached into her desk and rummaged around.
‘It’s the same as the game.’
What he took out was a wooden box the size of his palm.
‘You’re lucky.’
And just as Ern was about to pack the item. The warehouse door opened.
-Kkiik!
“!?”
