I Became an Adulterous Character in the Academy

chapter 17



Protecting Professor Ryan (2)

A space just for the two of us with the sound blocked by a magical field.

I talked to Rayna all night.

To think that I, who was not shy, could have a conversation with a woman without interruption, the power of the characteristic was definitely great.

「fox behavior」

▶ [Feeling] and [Pretension] stats greatly improve.

▶ Duration: 24 hours

Not only conversations, but also actions such as measuring the size of his hands and taking off his coat were performed unconsciously, which surprised even me.

Thanks to that, Reina didn’t even glance at Ryan. He pouted like an outcast and then dozed off.

I’m sorry, but this is mutually beneficial.

-Kkokio!

The sun rose on the ceiling of the classroom with a clear crowing. It was already 7:00 AM.

“Ugh…”

“Huh- I want to sleep more.”

The students got up one by one and took shower supplies. The shower room is open until 8:00 am, so I hurriedly left the classroom, and I naturally held the door.

It was because of “fox behavior”, but the students mistook it for warm consideration.

“Uh, ah… thank you.”

“Hehe, thank you Professor.”

“Good morning!”

······What’s good is what’s good.

Afterwards, when all the students had left, Professor Reina stood in front of me. she asked in a worried voice.

“Are you very tired? I’ll tell the general office and I’ll make sure to get ‘Hot Eight’ tomorrow.”

Hot Eight, a sleep replacement drink.

The ‘mapane’ component of the drink makes you feel less tired. Eight because it gives you a feeling of refreshment as if you had slept for 8 hours.

Instead, because it is hard on the body, it is paid only when there is a prescription from a specialist or when you have to stay up all night for official duties.

There were two scheduled sentinel professors, so only two ‘Hot Eights’ were given, and I endured with my sober mind.

“I would appreciate it if you would. thank you for your effort.”

“Professor also worked hard. Thanks, I didn’t know the time was passing. Then see you tomorrow!”

Raina smiled brightly and left the classroom. On the other hand, Ryan simply silently bowed and left.

It seemed that it was sad that only the two of them were talking.

“Hmm…”

I yawned until my mouth was tearing. It wasn’t too tiring.

I wanted to sleep at home, but I still had work to do.

It’s called ‘Following Ryan’.

In the original story, Ryan’s existence is discovered on the first night, and around the afternoon of the next day, Ministry of Magic agents arrest him.

That’s after about 7 hours.

However, because of my performance, Ryan’s existence was not noticed. Probably not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

That means that variables that are not in the original work will be active in the academy.

This will inevitably create some kind of butterfly effect.

It can adversely affect Elia or harm other names.

So I had to keep an eye on his movements.

“·······”

I ran out of the classroom and ran after Ryan. Ryan moved quickly.

Agility comes from a massive physique. It seemed to be faster than most walkers. already won the award.

I heard that there are no morning lectures, but why are you in such a hurry? Is there a meeting of black magicians that I don’t know about? At the same time, my heart rate also increased.

The result of chasing with tension

“…?”

Ryan went into the bathroom.

Then I heard the sound of a dove flapping its wings.

Pudeuk- Food deudeuk!

It must have been morning poop. yeah, it’s worth the rush

The cheerful sound of firing shook my mind. After all, tailing wasn’t something anyone did.

***

That night.

Around 9:00 PM when the full moon rose.

Narsha left the lab earlier than usual. It was because he had finished his quota and needed to purchase materials for research.

Beep-!

After taking the commute card of the magic tower, I headed to the 「Wizard Store」. Even though it was evening, there were still many students at the academy.

It was quite an unfamiliar scene for Narsha, who always works late at night.

‘Was it always this crowded?’

After people-watching, I quickly arrived at the Wizard Store.

I bowed briefly to the host and put the ingredients in a basket.

‘Perilla oil from Casrata… Scales of Wonder Shark… Industrial oak powder… Ah, the tears of elves.’

I chose a lot.

Even if you roughly calculate it, the amount exceeds 1000 per.

It was a shame because there was a research grant, and it was a huge amount that I couldn’t even dream of with my own money.

“Thank you~ Please come again!”

I paid and left the store.

Wizard Store is a store located at the back entrance. I had to go back to the academy and go out the front door. That was the shortest route home.

‘It’s been awhile since I’ve had a good night’s sleep.’

Narsha moved on. The thought of resting at home made me feel better.

However, someone from the restaurant next door stared at me. It wasn’t one person. There seemed to be five or six people.

Narsha also looked at that direction without losing.

“What are you trying to do… huh?”

The sharp eyes softened in an instant. It’s not that it’s not, it’s because Catherine, the owner of the mage tower, was in the restaurant.

Catherine, who manages all the finances of the Mage Tower, was a tycoon that even Narsha could not carelessly beat.

Catherine snapped her finger. It was the signal to come in.

“Ha… fuck.”

Narsha raised an eyebrow awkwardly. Then he went into the restaurant.

Catherine said.

“This is Researcher Narsha, the pride of our Mage Tower. Where were you going?”

“I’m here to buy materials for tomorrow’s research.”

“Oh yeah? Look, I already bought it!”

“······yes.”

“Good. sit down here This is…”

At the eight-seat table, high-ranking figures such as Laluna from the management team, Baetian from the general office, and Professor Ryan from the pharmacy department were seated. As you can see, it was too late to go early.

When Narsha sat down, the paused conversation resumed.

“Well, there’s a new recruit in the general office, but I think it’s a parachute.”

“Oh my gosh! Are you Mr. Jaylin’s daughter?”

“Because it is.”

Narsha listened silently. It was a conversation I couldn’t get into in the first place. It was boring.

“Oh, and did you hear the news?”

“What is it?”

“Deputy Professor Leonard said he caught Dark Diorer at Freshman MT.”

Narsha, who had been managing her expression all along, frowned this time.

A company affair with Leonard.

They don’t know because they only informed the professors of the same age, some researchers, and teaching assistants. They weren’t uncultured enough to mention someone else’s ex-lover.

······But why are you angry?

“Mr. Batian, who doesn’t know that? Rumors have already spread throughout the empire.”

“I don’t know if this is how archmages from other factions are born.”

“With Leonard, nothing is impossible.”

He kept talking about Leonard. All it said was something I didn’t want to hear.

Among them, Batian, who had a high opinion of Leonard, asked for Narsha’s opinion this time.

“Did you say Miss Narsha? Who do you think Narsha-san will be chosen as the archmage? Leonard? Karios?”

Annoyed. It sucks to be held captive, but to even ask questions about Leonard.

Uncontrollable anger boiled inside.

Narsha bit her molars.

“Also, what do you think about Leonard?”

“I don’t think I should ever be Leonard. He’s just the type of person I hate.”

The table was engulfed in furious reactions.

Batian blinked as if he was embarrassed, and Catherine calmed down belatedly.

“Wow, our Narsha is very expressive. These days, assertiveness like this is the trend, hoho.”

“Yes Yes. It’s very cool and nice. Isn’t that right, Batian?”

“Iknow, right. It is true that it is a new generation culture…”

Despite all the hard work, the atmosphere did not improve. It was a very uncomfortable look.

Narsha lowered her gaze.

I tried my best to put up with it, but my emotions couldn’t be controlled the way I wanted.

No, it wasn’t my fault in the first place.

It’s the fault of those who forced them into it. Do you want to take away someone else’s precious time?

Narsha looked at the wall clock. The clock was pointing to 10:30.

This was enough to sit on. I didn’t want to waste any more time here.

It was a sign that he wanted to get out of here.

“I’ll just go.”

Narsha got up from her seat, but no one stopped her.

“See you tomorrow, Narsha.”

“okay. It’s getting late, so go inside.”

“Go carefully~”

“I’ll just get up.”

Instead, someone who wanted to accompany him appeared. It was Professor Ryan.

“Because it’s Z401 Sentry Professor.”

“Oh, you are suffering.”

“It must be difficult.”

“no. It’s not that hard. Let’s go together, Miss Narsha.”

Ryan huffed and got up after him. Narsha nodded.

“yes. Goodbye everyone.”

“Let’s meet again next time. Enough then.”

After saying that, I left the restaurant. The cool night air calmed the heated emotions.

Ryan asked.

“Miss Narsha. Which way are you going?”

“To the front door.”

“Oh, the front door. I also have to go to the Zenith building, but it just went well.”

The Zenith Hall is a special building near the main entrance.

In a word, it meant that I had to accompany the fat professor to the front gate. Today is really the worst day ever.

Ryan didn’t stop his mouth the whole way.

“Believe it or not, I’ve heard a lot about Miss Nyarsha.”

“Wow… Really?”

“I heard that he is making unrivaled results in the healing field and is only focusing on research.”

“You have great intelligence…”

I only responded in short answer to cut off the conversation. However, this ignorant professor talked well to himself.

“Is there a reason you focus so much on healing research? What kind of goal is it, or is there something you really want to revive?”

“No.”

“Is there really not? Are you sure?”

“yes.”

“Uh huh… Then I think it would be better to set a goal arbitrarily, right? Even for motivation.”

The nuance of the words became increasingly strange.

It wasn’t just a curiosity, it was a way of speaking that meant something. Shall we call it embrace?

“Miss Narsha’s talent is a waste to rot in the Mage Tower. You need to do something more practical and challenging.”

“no. I like it now.”

Narsha took a step away from Ryan. It was because I could feel the disgust in his greasy face.

But Ryan stepped up.

“There is a social group that studies healing. Would you like to join it?”

“no.”

If you take another step away

“There are many wizards as interested in healing as Miss Narsha. There are many interesting experiments.”

One step closer again.

The distance was fiercely maintained, and Narsha, who had left the sidewalk, walked with her feet on the road.

Ryan put his hand on Narsha’s shoulder.

“Think carefully. Because you won’t regret it.”

“Oh, because I hate it. And tell me.”

Narsha tried to shake off his unclean hand. However, the strong grip did not let go of Narsha. Rather, it gave more power.

“You just want to try it? Who will bury the bones? Yes?”

Gradually, the atmosphere became oppressive.

Ryan’s face hardened. Like a Japanese roman doll, he made a stern expression.

“Can we go together just once? uh?”

“Why, why are you like this?”

Narsha looked around.

I wanted to ask for help, but after 10 o’clock, the back gate of the academy was deserted. I was terrified.

“Hey, don’t do this.”

“Who eats it? You just need to come to our meeting.”

Narsha, terrified, tried to avert her gaze, but her hand, which had been holding her shoulder tightly, turned to her face.

“People are talking, where are you looking? Can’t you hear me?”

It was then.

Something appeared from behind and grabbed Ryan’s wrist.

Ryan’s hands like autumn leaves.

Contrary to that, seomseomoksu.

A low voice followed.

“Stop it.”

It was a voice that even Narsha knew.

At one time, it was sweet enough to whisper love, but at the moment of parting, it was infinitely cold, and now it is even colder than that.

-Leonard’s tone

“·······”

Leonard stood right behind him.

As much as his raspy voice, his eyes are sharp. Leonard’s eyes, like those of a bird of prey, looked directly at Ryan.

It was an overwhelming aura that freezes space .
