I Became the Crazy Instructor at the Academy

41 – 41. Insurance

‘Just take one bite.’

‘…You said you would hide away as you said. ‘Why should I eat that?’

‘It’s important to have the right assortment. If you are confident in your acting that makes you feel like you’re going to die from pain, you don’t have to take it.’

‘…Ha.’

Kkdeuk-

“Ugh.”

After that scene, the dream went dark.

When I open my eyes, I am greeted by a messy room.

The bed I was lying on was wet with sweat,

The mana light that was standing next to the bed fell sideways and shattered.

Apparently, he knocked her over with her tail while she was sleeping.

If you think about how during her active duty days, Miho’s former colleagues even jokingly said, ‘I don’t know if you’re sleeping or dead.’

I could see how disheveled her body was now.

…How on earth did they know the fox beastman’s biggest weakness in the first place?

She is the only prisoner in the empire and a stranger from the East. Isn’t this something that can be covered up by saying you have good family or good information?

She lifted her heavy body and headed to the sink.

Shoot-

Even while washing, I don’t stop thinking.

“I don’t understand.”

The main character of a memory I dreamed a while ago.

The man named Ivan Kherson has been her biggest concern and headache these days.

A series of incidents such as terrorism, attacks, and assaults that can hardly be considered normal.

Although he was not the one leading the incident,

It’s so strange that the instructor was at the center of the solution.

It was a coincidence, but the aftertaste was unpleasant.

It was hard to think of him as a villain.

Because it seemed like a result.

If it weren’t for him, there would have been dozens to hundreds of cemeteries on the outskirts of Russell by now.

For that part, I am truly grateful.

Because I did not interact with the Dotong instructors, it was difficult to know their true intentions.

“And now, is it a threat?”

I washed my body, but the heat does not go away.

The lingering scent of the black and sweet poison that he had forced her to eat was still tormenting her.

Miho wiped the moisture from his body and returned to the bed and lay down.

“Three days.”

Three days until the date specified in the note I received from him.

This order, which included her exact time and place, made her even more distraught.

What is he drawing?

And what role does she play when she trusts him and pretends to be sick?

“…I don’t know.”

It was a complicated thought, but my body couldn’t keep up with the thoughts.

She closed her eyes again.

—

I feel really sorry for Instructor Miho, but

This was the best.

Someone who has tried meat eats it well,

It is natural for someone who has tried to trick someone to be good at it.

And, she is the type of person who is far from such shortcuts…. No, because he was a prisoner.

With tears in my eyes, I shoved a high-quality 95% cacao product into the mouth of a canine beast.

Still, thanks to that, a very good scene was produced.

All the instructors passing by were worried about Miho’s complexion,

It took less than half a day for the sick leave to be put up the sleeve.

Velen, who had been keeping an eye on her, said this.

“Amazing.”

I have no choice but to be deceived.

Because it’s not acting in the first place.

The day after instructor Miho disappeared,

Me and him walking down the hallway of the research building.

He continued to shower praise as if he was truly impressed.

“I couldn’t kill him, but judging from the fact that I made him unable to function as a human being…. It’s poison. “How much did you put in?”

“It’s an industry secret.”

He grinned.

He looked impatient, like a child stamping his feet.

“Okay, this is not the time, I have to do my job.”

“Since you’ve come all the way here, how about we at least say hello?”

“Enjoy yourselves to the fullest. I’m a human who will soon disappear anyway. Oh, don’t kill me. “If it gets noisy, you’re in trouble.”

Hera, who lent me her lab.

Today was the submission day for her homework.

He was also sticking to me, claiming to be in charge of the tide, so he was going with me.

Velen, who seemed to no longer care about her own reputation, returned the way she had come with a leisurely step.

I was the only one left in the hallway. She

She knocked on the professor’s lab a couple of times.

“Please come in.”

Squeak-

I held a pile of documents in one hand and opened the door with the other hand and entered.

She is sitting with a solemn expression.

“Where did Velen go?”

“He said he had urgent work to do and went back first.”

“… Did she find that child helpful?”

“It’s okay.”

I placed her stack of papers in front of her.

I left behind Hera, who had started to slowly look through the documents, and decided to make her coffee.

I thought about it while making it.

‘I think I can use it as insurance.’

Russell’s greatest force is out of Velen’s sight, instructor Miho. This is the key to defeating this event.

In this world full of variables, jumping into danger without even taking out insurance did not seem like a good idea.

Maybe we can use Professor Hera.

Professors are not stronger than instructors.

If there was a perfect superior-subordinate relationship, the profession of instructor would not have existed in the first place.

The professor’s strengths are precise.

Not strength, stamina, or mana.

Theory. In other words, it is the ability to build a magic circle.

That is why they are not good at fighting.

To utilize their organs, you need to build a magic circle of an enormous level, but that takes a lot of time.

For this reason, professors cannot be of help in the ever-changing battlefield.

However, if I were to know at least roughly the flow of the battlefield.

“Do you like it?”

I thought it might be possible,

I even brought her share of coffee.

“Hmm, hmm.”

She clears her throat repeatedly.

Since her expression was hidden behind the documents, she couldn’t tell if something was good or bad.

Honestly, this was research I did in my spare time after revising the Bible.

She was confident that it would be okay for her to do so, given that it was modifying the mana circuit diagram.

But, maybe I underestimated the professor too much… ?

In that awkward atmosphere, she opened her mouth.

“It’s ideal.”

“…”

Thank goodness. It was admiration, not disappointment.

“I can’t believe I could design a circuit of this level in a short period of time, like a week. “Honestly, I was very surprised.”

The level of praise and the overbearing tone do not match at all.

“If we end up like this, we’ll only get a few pennies in support and a decent amount of fame. But aren’t you looking higher?”

“I’m not sure what you mean.”

“I’ll say it bluntly. “Are you thinking about becoming a professor?”

Eyes like a wild beast stalking its prey.

Are you asking me to become a graduate student?

The correct name for graduate students is the same here and in the real world. Slave.

“Although they use the expression ‘going downstairs,’ professors and instructors are on an equal footing. “We promise to treat you at the highest level.”

What kind of life do slaves who are treated at the highest level live?

I didn’t feel it well.

In the first place, I have no intention of taking a professorship course.

However, I also had something I wanted to say straight away and leave.

I decided to be a little more rounded.

“This won’t be your first research. Is that correct?”

“Yes? Yes.”

“Then, can I see the research records so far?”

Her expression hardened slightly.

This may be because the nuance of my words sounded like ‘I will evaluate you before making a decision.’

That was about half true.

If there is nothing useful for next week’s event among the magic circles she can build.

I tried to leave without mercy.

“…Please wait a moment.”

Hera went out at a brisk pace, and soon she returned carrying an enormous tower of papers.

It’s so massive that you can feel the table vibrating when you put it down.

“Now, feel free to check it out.”

It may have sounded like a scolding, but

I paid no attention and started checking from the top page.

I was able to check how much time had passed.

The height of idealism, a magic circle that can only exist in the form of a document.

“It’s a single method of multiple firing magic….”

A magic circle that combines multiple magics into one.

At first glance, it may seem trivial.

That sounds grand, isn’t it just nesting magic? A question may also be asked.

But, no.

If stacking magic is addition, then in theory it is closer to multiplication.

The RBI becomes extremely small and the power increases dramatically.

Yes, it is safe to say that this is a theory about the magic circle of a giant magnifying glass that collects sunlight called magic.

This might be useful.

“Instructor Ivan. “I can say it myself, but it is a failed study.”

“Why?”

“The basic formula of the magic circle. Weave the mana circuit into the frame. You know? This is a case where the frame is too large. “The magic circle will disappear before all the circuits are filled in.”

“In other words, wouldn’t it be enough to just fill it in quickly?”

“…Yes?”

Narrow range, great firepower.

This ability can truly be called sniping.

It is very suitable for insurance.

“I will help you. However, it is unfortunate that this good research is being conducted in secret.”

If what Velen said is correct, the professor in front of you is in a slightly dangerous situation unless you prove yourself.

The subsidy may not come out, and even your position may be in jeopardy.

So, I cannot refuse this offer.

“Let’s give a demonstration next week.”
