Episode 57. Who are you?

When the lead manager first came to see me, he asked if they could take care of Dale.

Of course, now, on the contrary, the other side is asking me for help.

It’s been a story that hadn’t been said about him before, but the important thing is that it’s highly likely that some kind of permission was given to Waden to come in person.

All clubs in Maris, including the leader, are basically under the student council.

The fact that he dared to approach the matter that was decided at the faculty meeting must mean that the student council also took part in it.

This is exactly what I was aiming for.

If you can take charge of the leadership team, wouldn’t it be possible to take charge of the student council as well? Thinking about doing it.

“Seo, sir. If you don’t go, can’t you?”

On my way to the student council room I was aiming for, Dale came close behind me as I was walking down the hallway.

He must be worried about what to do if he bumps into a student on the way.

“I want to do that too, but the kids from the leadership team are desperate in many ways. It’s all for the continuation of the School Board, so please bear with it.”

“Yeah, but… …. The place you are going to now is where the high-ranking person is, right?”

“That’s right.”

To be honest, I’ve never faced it myself, so I don’t know.

It’s just a matter of poking around just in case, so you’ll have to figure out what he’s like and what he’s really like during the interview.

But going to meet the student council president without any basis is absolutely not the case.

The school rules of this academy teach that sovereignty exists in the students, and the student president is also elected through the votes of the students.

In other words, without knowing anything else, only the student council president makes decisions through a ‘democratic system’.

Of course, since the president has a high approval rating even among the common people, there is no way he would discriminate based on rank, at least like Waden.

Of course, since he is treated as a potential problem child, it won’t be nice to look at him, but if he shows signs of doing so, it’s okay to get rid of him right away.

“You must hope he is a good child. If I get rejected, I will have to stay with the saintess for three days.”

“Kieek!”

“Hey, you bastard.”

I ended up walking down the hallway with Dale, who was about to run straight to the window, cradled by my side.

At the end of the journey, we arrived at the place where the grand door was located. The sign hanging above it openly read “Student Council Room.”

Is this where the student council president of this academy is?

It’s been a while since I tried to knock in hopes that the person inside here will like me.

Suddenly, I noticed that the gap in the door was slightly open.

“…Did you forget to close the door?”

But just in case, I opened it up a little and checked inside, and I could see a pile of paperwork piled up like a mountain on the office desk.

A series of towers made of paper without empty words.

In the gap, I could see a long-haired blue-haired woman scribbling her pen and tying her hair.

“Mumble mumble… ….”

A mouth that constantly moves.

He seems to be saying something, but it’s too far away to be heard.

It’s just that through her wide eyes and tousled hair, she can feel the tiredness building up unnecessarily.

“Teacher?”

“Stay behind me for a moment.”

Let’s check what happened. Thinking, I opened the door and stepped into the student council room.

What you can see inside is the spacious meeting room. However, piles of papers are also piled up in other places that could not be identified through the cracks in the door.

Approval documents, accounting data, student records, etc……. You can get an idea of how this academy works just by looking around here.

“The baseball department has fallen considerably compared to the previous year, but since we have to take into account the change in policy, we will have to raise the budget a bit… …. Damn it, the athletic department is spending too much money on the budget. How the hell……. No, wait. Isn’t this a bit strange? What? Where the hell is the error in the calculation…….”

Among those piles of documents, the student council president mumbles and holds his head.

Seeing that my body was also shaking, I started to worry that it might explode soon and make the surroundings a mess.

In terms of health, overwork is something to be avoided.

I don’t think it would be a bad idea to open up a conversation and suggest a break.

“Excuse me. President. I came here because I had a business for a while…….”

“aaa!!”

Oops.

It was already time to explode.

“Damn it, Zenjaaang! Why did the child in charge of accounting graduate early in the middle!! No matter how bad the family situation is, what should I do if I suddenly leave it out like that!! Recruiting people is also a test, but how am I supposed to do all this by myself when it’s not going to be easy!!!”

aaah!!

Our student president screaming and hitting the desk.

Worrying that the mountain of documents might not fall over from the shock, I was about to hold onto the side, and then, as if noticing my presence, the chairman started glaring at me.

The dull colored eyes that can be seen through the glasses.

It means that I lost my reason to the point where I couldn’t even tell who the person in front of me was.

“You there. Could you help me for a moment?”

“Uh… Me?”

“Whatever it is, it only takes a moment! This way here!! Please organize the papers here!!”

The chairman who dragged my body and put me in a certain seat.

I tried to ask something in bewilderment, but at that time the chairman went back to his place and was putting his pen on the document.

That’s pretty rough too. It would be disastrous if the nib broke and the ink spread on the paper.

After hearing the story, it seems that accountants graduated early. …. It seemed that this time the president had a different meaning from the leading manager.

“But I am a health teacher, not an accountant.”

I glanced over the documents in front of me.

Tables for each budget, documents required for organization, etc……. What was piled up in front of me was the materials left by the accountant who is currently absent from the student council.

Come to think of it, I also studied this before.

Whether you are a lord or an insider, knowledge of financial management is essential.

In the first place, since accounting mathematics itself is ultimately based on arithmetic, it would be ridiculous for an aristocrat who has learned some magic to be unable to do accounting work.

Things about just knowing how to do things and having to do ‘everything’ are separate stories.

“…… How do you do all this without a calculator?”

Yes, this world is just beginning to advance in engineering.

At best, a factory centered on weaving tools and the like could be operated, or music boxes and wind-up dolls could be made as a hobby for nobles.

Of course, in the world I used to live in, let alone electronic calculators, I couldn’t find anything like Pascaline (a hand-operated mechanical calculator) made with cogwheels at the forefront.

In other words, math and arithmetic in this world are based on mental arithmetic and writing on paper.

That’s why accountants in a time when calculators didn’t exist were hired for high salaries by nobles, but do I really have to do all of this?

“Sir, what are you doing?”

While I was thinking about what to do, Dale, who had been watching the situation, approached me and began to look through the papers.

Even the hesitancy that I felt before has disappeared. It sparked a peculiar curiosity.

The problem is that it is labor rather than academic, but……. Well, yes, if this is an experience, then it must be an experience.

“Dale, have you ever sorted out the household account book?”

“Yes, when I worked at a bar, I mainly did the calculations.”

“I see.”

Yes, to put it bluntly, organizing the household account book is also a kind of accounting work.

To be precise, it is a typical example of single-entry bookkeeping, and it is also divided into double-entry bookkeeping and profit-making bookkeeping, but……. Well, looking at the documents now, it doesn’t seem to require complicated calculations, so I think it’s okay.

“Teacher, what are you doing?”

“Stay still.”

Right away, I randomly wrote numbers on a piece of paper, and wrote down the four arithmetic arithmetic symbols on them to perform calculations.

Let’s see, um…Yes.

Okay.

“Dale.”

“Yes?”

“248,065 Times 1,735?”

“… ….”

Dale stares blankly at me with round eyes.

It was only after my eyes were swollen twice that my mouth opened.

“…… 430,392,775?”

“Now here.”

I handed over the document I was holding right away to Dale.

Anyway, he is a kid who can do 3 or more digit mental arithmetic in 5 seconds, so there’s no need to worry.

“As the teacher took a closer look, it seems that the numbers in this document can be combined or subtracted from this document and written down.”

“Um… …. Am I helping the president with his work?”

“Because scoring points will probably help improve awareness in the future. And when you’re struggling like that, why don’t you just let it go?”

Dale’s gaze turned to Chairman Seuk.

To the pitiful workaholic ghost who is still unaware of Dale and I.

“…… Um, yes OK. If I can, I will do it.”

“Good.”

As soon as he moves away, Dale looks at the papers.

After that, the hand gestures for entering the numbers were a little sloppy, but as I watched without pointing out, I could confirm that momentum gradually gained.

Anyway, it is said that he took charge of managing money in that difficult place at a younger age than now, but he must have a knack for it.

After watching for about 10 minutes, I thought it would be okay to see that he was still focused and showed no sign of fatigue.

“Then the teacher will be gone, so for the next three days, she will only attend the health room and take care of herself here.”

“Yes.”

“If the president comes again, I will give you the things here. She has something the teacher wants to say and a drink she brought as a gift, so she has to tell it without skipping it. Understand?”

“Yes.”

Dale still scribbles his pen while answering.

I smiled at Dale and left the president’s office, putting down the letter and the drink bottle.

Hopefully, while I’m coaching the leadership team, I hope that kid will be of great help to the poor president.

***

And then, time passed, and soon, around the time the sun set in the sky.

“No, it’s over…”

Maris’ student council president, Maya Karis, put the last document in her hand on the desk in the office and put her weight on the back of the chair.

From the moment the tension is released, the view is released.

The ceiling I was looking up at started to twist as if it were spinning, but I didn’t think the sensation was bad.

Because the fact that you’ve loosened up means that today’s work is over.

‘Still, it’s only today that it’s over. Tomorrow and sand, I have to take charge of accounting instead…….’

After preparing the necessary documents or writing things down, the clerk takes care of the teachers’ errands in the school office, and in the case of the vice president, he tends to go down to the school district rather than inside the school to find work necessary for school operation.

Both are in a state of drawing support from teachers, civilians, and each faction to bring in what is necessary for school operation.

As a result, the accountant and the chairman are expected to take care of the prepared paperwork, but the student in charge of the accountant unexpectedly decided to graduate early a few weeks ago, so he ended up doing the work himself.

I want to protest at all costs, but the other person is a princess who decides the fate of a country…….

‘Because it happened so suddenly, I couldn’t afford to fill in the number of people.’

That’s right, because you can’t just throw in a member of the student council.

Even if there is no talented person to speak of, or even if someone caught his eye, he has already found a position and is faithful to his job.

In the worst case, he was about to be prepared to take full responsibility for accounting until his term of office was over.

‘My body can’t stand it if I keep working like this.’

It’s a pity that a helper came along the way today. If I had been wrong, I wouldn’t have finished my work at midnight today.

“Good work, Chairman. Have a Coke here.”

“Oh, yes. Thanks.”

Maya takes a sip of the drink given to her by her helper.

The tingling sensation gave me a sense of refreshment, so the fatigue was relieved, but it didn’t take long for that strange sensation to lead to a sense of heterogeneity.

“…… Well? Cola?”

Cola, isn’t it a nutritional supplement that was barely distributed in war zones?

Surprised as to why it was brought out in front of me out of the blue, Maya immediately turned her gaze to the person standing in front of me.

A petite girl looking up at herself while hugging a tray of glasses.

“Does that fit your mouth?”

Maya corrects her distorted glasses in response to a cautious question.

“Oh, yes. What… It’s delicious.”

No, looking back, it was a boy.

It’s easy to misunderstand because of her blonde hair and slender physique, but the school uniform she’s wearing is definitely a male student’s.

Unless he was dressed as a man, the person in front of me must be a boy.

…… But does it matter?

“By the way, who are you?”

Maya Karis, the current student council president of Maris.

She looked at the stranger she had never seen before with puzzled eyes.
