The Villains I Taught Became Heroes - Chapter 65



64 – Who to Go With – 2

“Then shall we get started right away?”

At the instructor’s words, the students immediately began their discussions.

Since it was a group project, they needed to talk about how they would approach it.

“We have nothing to worry about.”

With a smile, Lumina looked at Sowol. Sowol tilted her head at that gaze.

“Why do you think that?”

“I’ve heard that every time the saint stands on the battlefield, her speeches resonate deeply with all the paladins and soldiers… This level of writing should be a piece of cake, right?”

“…Hehe. Isn’t it a bit strange for me to write alone? How about everyone writing and then we choose the best one?”

“Hmm. That sounds better. Then let’s all write and pick the best one.”

As Lifa agreed, everyone began to write.

So-wol, watching them, felt cold sweat trickling down her back.

‘This is bad.’

Up until now, all the speeches had been written by Laila or Serin.

Of course, So-wol wasn’t completely lacking in basic writing skills.

But she had thought it unnecessary to put in the effort for something others could do for her, so she hadn’t studied separately, and now things had turned out like this.

‘I should have tried when Laila told me to…’

She felt regret for her past self who had rejected the idea, thinking there was no need to write.

So-wol picked up her pen, trying to maintain her composure.

‘About Master…’

She had heard from Laila.

The most important thing in writing is to express one’s feelings through words.

So-wol closed her eyes. Her feelings for Lee Hyun.

[s*x. Master’s cock in my ass, and I’m saying “ahh” while Master loves dogs. My breasts are really big.]

“……”

‘This isn’t it. This is absolutely not it.’

So-wol quickly folded the paper and tucked it into her bosom, worried someone might see.

She glanced around, wondering if anyone had noticed, but everyone seemed too busy writing.

Letting out a small sigh of relief, she looked at the blank paper.

To express her feelings for Lee Hyun.

She reminisced about the past.

When they first met, and when they were together at Dongbang Sangdan.

When they went to the village and had fun together.

All those moments were beautiful and nostalgic.

That’s why So-wol was able to move her pen.

It didn’t require embellishments to express her feelings.

Simply mentioning how nice it was to be with him and revealing that was enough.

So, with a smile, So-wol slowly began to write.

“Alright. Shall we present what we’ve written?”

Each group had to submit only the best-written piece.

Then they would just need to pick the best among them.

Thinking that, Lifa lightly spoke up when it seemed everyone had finished writing.

The first to raise her hand in response was the bright and cheerful Arisha.

“Me! I’ll go first!”

“Okay. Go ahead.”

“Teacher! Thank you always! I love you so much!!”

“…And?”

“Is that it?”

“……”

What should I say?

Lifa let out a drop of cold sweat.

“…It’s well-written, but it’s too direct.”

“Come on~. Isn’t it nice because it’s honest and intuitive?”

“It feels too honest and intuitive… Let’s put it on hold for now. So, next…”

“I-I’ll do it, I’ll give it a try.”

Lena raised her hand.

Though she usually didn’t speak much, she was the overseer of the Ivory Tower, where wisdom, knowledge, and magic converged.

Lifa nodded, thinking that if it were her, a proper piece of writing would emerge.

“Um. Well…”

It seemed she was nervous about actually speaking.

Lena awkwardly began to speak while looking at the text she had written,

and Lifa reached out her hand.

“Let’s not do that; let’s have everyone read it!”

Lena nodded vigorously and handed over the paper, which Lifa quickly began to read.

[To my Master.

You have always said.

Those who possess power can change. That is why I have strived to gain power.

I study, think, and ponder, aiming to use the strength I acquire for the right purposes.

You would surely find me commendable for that, Master.

If you were to praise me with a voice as soft as the warm sunlight, I would naturally fall into your embrace.

As our gazes meet, with eyes filled with burning passion and desire overlapping, we would kiss without needing to declare who initiated it.

When that sticky, fervent kiss ends, you would shyly avert your gaze, feeling embarrassed in a way you usually don’t.

That adorable sight would be irresistible to anyone.

Thus, I would pull you close, and you would accept my touch, gradually shedding your layers of clothing.

As if licking each other’s wounds, our bare skin would collide, and we would passionately caress one another, while you, despite your shyness, would not cease your reaching hands.

In a room now dampened by our rough, heated breaths, you would gently set me down and speak kindly.

I want you.

Ah, with that one phrase, I found my salvation.

I slowly embrace you, intending to offer you all of myself.

As I nod, you would…]

“Ahhh!!”

Lifa screamed, her face flushed bright red, and at her intense reaction, Lena awkwardly laughed and scratched the back of her head.

“What was that about?”

Puzzled, Lumina picked up the paper Lifa had dropped and began to read it quickly.

After reading it all, she, too, turned red and sighed, then cautiously asked Lena.

“When is the second part coming out?”

Lifa, at a loss for words at her reaction, let out a deep sigh.

It was well-written, but there was no way she could submit this.

She looked at So-wol with a desperate gaze.

In that look, which seemed to say she believed only in him, So-wol finally spoke the truth.

“Actually, the speech and the report were written by the church… I think it would be better if you didn’t trust me.”

As she said this, everyone took turns reading the paper she handed out.

It was well-written, but it was hard to say it was the best.

“Then, mine…”

Everyone who read the piece submitted by Lumina smiled awkwardly.

It wasn’t bad, but it was filled with the royal family’s peculiar formalities and pretentiousness.

“Isn’t it a masterpiece?”

“It’s not bad. Then, mine…”

Lifa handed over her own writing.

Those who received it read it and nodded in agreement.

It was a bit exaggerated, but it was the best piece among them.

“Then which one should we submit?”

“Lifa’s is the best! Let’s go with that!”

As everyone agreed with Arisha’s words, Lifa stood up.

While she went to submit her piece, Lumina tried to carefully fold Lena’s writing and tuck it away.

“Uh? W-why are you taking that…?”

“Uh, it’s such a masterpiece that I wanted to savor it… By the way, what about you, Lady…”

“Y-yes. A-actually. Um. I… I like my teacher…”

If she could write something like this, it was clear to anyone that Lena had feelings for Lee Hyun.

Lumina smiled wryly at her, who was struggling to spit out what seemed like a great secret.

“Instructor Lee Hyun is indeed a remarkable person.”

“Yes, hehe. My teacher is truly wonderful… It’s impossible not to like him…”

So-wol nodded at her words.

He was certainly someone you couldn’t help but like.

But that was that, and this was this.

It didn’t feel good knowing that someone else was after the person she was aiming for.

‘Of course, Master probably likes me more.’

Still, the thought of having a rival didn’t sit well with her, so So-wol clenched her fist, determined to capture Lee Hyun as soon as possible.

As soon as class ended, So-wol went to find Lee Hyun.

Since he was in the instructor’s office when it wasn’t class time, it wasn’t too difficult to find him.

But what would she say if he asked why she was there?

Should she just confess without overthinking it?

Unable to suppress her racing heart, So-wol looked at her reflection in a hand mirror.

No matter when she looked, her face was beautiful. Just as he wanted, her chest was ample too.

Then, wouldn’t it be okay to confess? Although she was a saint of the church, the church didn’t prohibit the marriage of clergy.

In fact, it even encouraged it, so she might receive a blessing.

‘But…’

– I’m sorry, but I’ve never thought of you as anything more than a disciple.

“Ugh!”

My heart sinks.

I imagine the words that Lee Hyun might blurt out in his embarrassment.

The thought of Master feeling awkward after my confession, and that our current relationship might not even exist, makes my legs go weak.

‘Well, the best way is to lead Master to confess to me…’

“Um? It’s So-wol, right? Perfect timing. I was just about to call you.”

“Hik. M-Master?”

“Why are you so surprised?”

“F-Fufu. I-I don’t know. But why did you want to call me?”

Startled by the sudden voice, So-wol trembled for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

Quickly regaining her composure, she greeted Lee Hyun with her characteristic confident smile.

“I need to go to church for a bit. Let’s go together.”

“Oh? Why do I have to go? Fufu. You’re not scared to go alone, are you, Master?”

“Hahaha. Actually, when I go to church alone, they keep telling me to come to Mass. I thought it would be less if I went with a saint. Is that a problem for you?”

So-wol smiled brightly at his playful banter.

“Well… if Master insists that he wants to go with me! Absolutely! Definitely!! then I should go with you, right?”

“Thanks for that. Haha.”

“But what’s the reason for going to church?”

In response to her question, Lee Hyun spoke nonchalantly.

“I think there’s some movement from the Asura Church at the academy, so I’ve requested an investigation from the church. I’m going to check on that.”
