66 – 66. Alternate

Instructor Miho stands in the center of the conference room, looking left and right.

After confirming that everyone was present, she started the meeting in a dry voice.

“The first item on the morning meeting agenda is…”

Centered around her, standing in the center of her,

The entire conference room was divided in half.

The standard is, of course, the pros and cons of the first and only agenda.

“The title of instructor emeritus Ivan Kherson. “It is a matter of legitimacy.”

The left is the opposition.

So, Moriam, the chairman, and several instructors were sitting there.

Most of the instructors, including instructor Miho and me, were seated on the right.

When I first received the letter, I expected that this agenda would be dismissed as a minor incident that only people in the know would know about.

Thanks to the variable of intense interest from students, two things changed.

First, the matter has grown to the point where it has garnered the attention of all faculty and staff.

And the second variable is…

Still sobbing, my friend.

“He is my student… But as a teacher, I am cold rice… This is strange…”

“I don’t think this is right. It is true that instructor Ivan contributed, but… This is a bit…”

Currently, there are two types of students at Russell.

Ivan skeptics and Ivan admirers.

There is no middle ground.

And among the instructors who are the teachers of the admirer.

The karma inflicted by the crazy person before possession,

Some people were seriously burned.

From their perspective, it wouldn’t really look nice for their student to praise Ivan’s nobility.

So, the pros and cons of this agenda are:

Contrary to expectations that almost all instructors would be on my side.

It was divided exactly in half.

Well… I understand.

If a student prioritizes other instructors more than himself, it would be heartbreaking for everyone.

Even if it is Ivan,

That is not overkill.

Of course, there were instructors who knew how to accurately divide public and private matters.

“Do you guys have a conscience?”

“When I heard it, I heard it, so it’s not like I’m some kind of kid…”

Instructors standing by my side.

In other words, those who think that Ivan is worthy of the title of Professor Emeritus.

There were many familiar faces here.

During the last Chris incident, the guy who handed me the lock and asked me to unlock the mana circuit.

There were male and female instructors who saw my skills indirectly during the treasure hunt.

After finishing the process, instructor Miho sat down next to me, but did not express her opinion.

Just wait and see the situation with me.

As I kept quiet, the conflict between the two sides became more and more acute.

“If it makes you so sick to see others succeed, just return your instructor badge and go to the imperial palace.”

“Don’t push me like that! “This is a fair criticism!”

“No, why did you tell someone so strict that you couldn’t take care of your students?”

It was finally time for me to open my mouth, but I was thinking a little differently.

They are having a heated discussion about superficially prepared issues, such as ‘Legitimacy of Ivan’.

As a person involved, I feel like I learned a little deeper about the situation.

The end of my gaze is towards the corner across from there.

Moriam is quietly buried, like a ghost, as if it doesn’t exist.

He was suspended indefinitely for the incident in the main auditorium last time.

However, even if it is indefinite, it is a decision made with the intention that it will be recalled someday.

Ruschel is so closed that it can be called an island above an empire, and instructors are rarely replaced.

However, if it comes back this quickly, it becomes a problem.

Someone among the board chairs was enthusiastically supporting him, so reinstatement itself would not have been a big problem.

Because the instructors won’t stay still.

However, as you can see if you look around.

“The point seems to have been blurred, but my personal opinion has no meaning, right? The topic of the current meeting is much more sensitive than that.”

“Oh, can’t you just stop ranking that damn thing? There’s no way it was really C rank in the first place. It just wasn’t updated.”

No one cares about Moriam stuck in the corner.

This was the picture he intended,

He must have chosen me as his sacrifice.

In order to cover up the issue of ‘his return’, a bigger issue called ‘Ivan’s rank’ is raised.

In order to make things bigger, they even spread the rumor that ‘Ivan’s skills are truly C-rank.’

They blatantly add firewood like this,

The reaction cannot help but be enthusiastic.

“Instructor Ivan, it turns out that your rank is C. Is that correct?”

The chairman solemnly assesses the situation and asks me questions.

Up until now, it was a build-up,

We are finally getting to the point.

The evaluator is already here, and my rank promotion evaluation is also confirmed.

You probably thought I didn’t know that,

The principal was on my side.

“That’s right.”

“I’m sure you’re not very happy about this situation either. Putting the personality controversy aside for now, you’ve gotten into trouble because you didn’t update your rank. So, why not take this opportunity to get an evaluation? ?”

This is exactly the part.

What they are trying to do is to get me ranked.

But, it was so strange.

Let’s think about it.

Anyway, since it is an evaluation for promotion to Class B, an appropriate evaluator will come to you.

From noble mtl dot com

To be precise, someone in the middle rank among active combatants with B rank is coming.

And, if I can confidently overcome that evaluation and receive a B rank.

Everything returns to normal.

Students’ misunderstandings will also be resolved.

I will regain my dignity as an instructor.

Once the bubbles surrounding my issue clear,

The natural prey will be Moriam, the next biggest issue.

Now, if you think about this premise.

The conclusion is that the chairman in front of me made the decision based on the calculation that I would not pass the evaluation.

I have to be completely humiliated and branded as C-Rank so that I can continue the mess.

And after being publicly shamed like that,

Students’ public opinion will also give strength to the ‘Ah, this is a bit’ side of the argument.

However, it only comes true if I don’t pass the evaluation.

This makes no sense.

No matter what they think of Ivan, they are a people with brains and eyes.

Do you really think Ivan is C-rank?

Are they really that stupid?

I was so shallow that I couldn’t even choose what to say while standing still-

‘…Ah!’

At that moment, a thought passed through his head.

What I feel is a kind of déjà vu.

Experiencing a situation like this,

This is not the first time.

I have definitely experienced it.

The subject was not Ivan, but Adam,

Although the opponent did not approach in the name of a ‘rank evaluator’.

Familiarity felt in the larger frame of the incident.

And if this feeling is right, what I have to say is-

“I like it.”

“That’s great. I knew that would happen and called the evaluator in advance. I think they would have arrived by now.”

“Can you tell me the name of the evaluator you called?”

“Of course. She-“

Knock knock-

Until now, I thought this was just a variable brought about by Ivan’s sudden promotion.

But, this is an event.

An event that I have experienced and that must be resolved unconditionally.

The guess that came to me like lightning was almost certain, so I didn’t have to hear that name.

Indeed, exquisitely, right before her name came out of the chairman’s mouth.

In the conference room where no one came, a knock was heard.

Squeak-

When Instructor Miho quietly wakes up and opens the door, she appears.

With neat brown hair,

Wearing simple clothes,

A woman standing with a bright expression that is almost naive.

Before anyone opens their mouth,

A loud voice rang out.

“It’s an honor to meet you, instructors!”

Navel bow with a 90-degree cutting angle itself.

Soon, she straightened her back again and held instructor Miho’s hand as if she had met an idol.

“Mi, mi, Miho, you are senior senior Miho, right?! Are you senior Miho, the beast on the front line and the most powerful person in the world?!”

“…The name is correct. I’m not sure about the nickname.”

“It’s a real honor to meet you!”

More fuss than you can imagine.

The instructors, who were not very accustomed to her gaze, approached her one by one and began to stop her…

“Senior Erfin? That senior Erfin? The self-proclaimed ice witch of the Western 2nd Front-“

“Joe, be quiet! Please!”

“If she is a public figure… Doesn’t that mean she also acknowledged it?”

“Can I call you the ice witch starting tomorrow, Erfin?”

“Oh, no! No! Don’t laugh!”

It didn’t seem easy.

A feast of fuss and reverence, as if this were a hall of heroes.

Because of that, it was imprinted on everyone here.

They say that an insignificant country girl has come.

Infrequent gossip whispered inaudibly to her proved that public opinion.

“There was a time when I was like that too. Whenever I saw a high rank, I acted as if I had met some kind of god.”

“Hey, it’s B-class… It’s the time when things like that happen.”

However, my thoughts were different.

I knew her.

Get up from her seat and approach her.

Because of the slight difference in height between her and her, he recognizes her before they even meet each other properly.

“Aha, it’s you! Instructor Ivan Kherson!”

“Nice to meet you.”

It’s just the same.

That skilled ‘underdog cosplay’.

“Oh, I should introduce myself! I-“

“I know. Celeste Assessor.”

“…Huh? I still have a name-“

“Because it’s written on the name tag.”

Celeste.

Officially, her rank is B.

Even lower to mid-level B class.

But-

“This is a formal evaluation, but please be considerate.”

“…Ehehehe, please be gentle…”

Her ‘real’ skill is that of an A-rank lieutenant.

It is the difference between heaven and earth.

Now all questions have been resolved,

All the threads in my head became unraveled.

Moriam, and the chairman who is behind him.

In order to make Ivan look like the neighborhood idiot, I gave him the name C without any lies about his skills.

To make it a reality.

With the intention of publicly humiliating him in front of everyone and tarnishing his reputation, he will secretly bring Moriam back-

“That’s what I’m going to say.”

I brought a secondary character.

However, there is one thing they cannot expect.

I already know her.

Battle style, weaknesses, even physical strength.

So, I am.

The point was that I had no intention of losing.
