The Genius Professor Wants An Easy Life

Quang!

I looked at the body waiver signed by Linden with a satisfied face.

Now, if you pay off Linden’s debt, he will become my slave… No, I’m a graduate student.

“But what did you do with stocks to end up with so much debt?”

Linden’s debt was a whopping 100,000 pena.

2,000 pena is enough for a commoner’s family to live on for a year, so in Korea on Earth, they owe approximately 1 billion won.

“… that… Try your hand at futures options. I ended up taking on a lot of loans and ended up in a wrong selling position… .”

“… Why did you push yourself so hard?”

“that… “I want to make money in one go and become rich.”

Linden hesitated to answer, and I lamented again.

The more I knew, the more pathetic he was!

‘Sipma Linden was a worm in my life. No, because he is such a greedy guy, is it possible for him to later become the ‘Lord of Gluttony’?’

Hans asked cautiously from the side.

“Confucius, are you okay? “Well, Confucius doesn’t have much money right now, does he?”

That is correct.

Right now, I didn’t even have 500 pence in my pocket, let alone 100,000.

‘I used to win money by betting with Balik at ‘Diane’, but this time I saved up all the money as a deposit while looking for accommodation. Damn the prices of the Free City.’

“Okay. “I’m not going to pay it back with my own money anyway.”

“if? My money?! Oh no! Of course, my loyalty to Confucius is sky-high… ! I’m going to use this money for Confucius later… !!”

“… “I never wanted your money, so don’t make a fuss.”

Hans breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then what are you going to do? Are you going to request support from the Duke of Ecclesia?”

“No, you can’t do that.”

If you ask the family for help, they will give you money.

The problem is that I have to pay it back.

Nothing was free in this damn family.

‘No matter how much I want Linden, I can’t do something that will result in a loss.’

There was only one way.

“I need to find an ‘angel’ who will pay my debt for free.”

“… “Can there be someone like that?”

“there is.”

widely.

I put the documents down on the shabby table.

It was a debt document that Linden had ever owed.

The name of the ‘creditor’ who lent the money was as follows:

-Arines top.

It was a famous top.

Upper part of the Rafalte duchy.

“This guy’s debt will be repaid by the Rafalte duchy.”

A hero who will protect the Rafalte duchy again… No, I had to make it ‘angel’.

* * *

There are numerous villains, dark circles, and villain organizations in the ‘Hero Academy’.

The Duke of Rafalte was one of them.

The main villain in the early part of ‘Rubines Scenario’.

‘It’s better to not get involved as much as possible.’

I shook my head.

‘It’s impossible. ‘It’s already ruined anyway.’

It was completely different from the ‘President’, another villain in Rubiness’s scenario.

I plan to never clash with the ‘president’ and maintain a smooth relationship as much as possible.

However, it was impossible with the Rafalte duchy.

‘Even if I try to be quiet, the Rafalte duchy won’t leave me alone.’

In that case, there was no need to notice.

“You came to see the Lord of the Sangdan?”

An unknown, strict-looking man frowned.

“Excuse me, but what business does the half-prince of the Ecclesia family have for our upper lord?”

Unfavorable attitude.

It was natural.

To begin with, the four major ducal families do not get along well with each other.

In particular, the Ecclesia family of ‘politics’ and the Lapalt family of ‘commerce’ were enemies.

In addition, I have a history of breaking off engagements with the Rafalt family, and recently, I even tarnished the reputation of the Rafalt duchy due to Balik’s incident.

‘… ‘It’s a completely ruined relationship anyway, so there’s nothing to worry about.’

So to speak, the relationship between the Rafalte family and I is like a hostile company.

went out strong

“I came to get compensation.”

“… What do you mean by that all of a sudden?”

“You caused great harm to my student Lyndon during the debt collection process. “As compensation, forgive Linden’s debt of 100,000 penas.”

“What nonsense?!”

The man raised his voice as if it were absurd.

“This is not a story to share with a lowly employee like you. “I will speak directly to the owner of the merchant, so he can guide you.”

“under!! what?!”

It was then.

“done. “I will deal with it myself, so send it up.”

“Say, Lord Sangdan?”

A cold voice.

When I looked up the stairs, I saw a beautiful woman looking down at me with an expression as cold as her voice.

I felt lost for a moment.

‘This is beyond calculation.’

It was a familiar face.

“It’s been a while, Ban.”

The woman continued speaking with an expressionless face.

“nice to meet you. Even if not, I also had something to tell you.”

Emily Rapalte.

She was Ban’s former fiancée.

* * *

‘After all, the owner of the top was this person’s former fiancée.’

I felt like I had chewed poop.

I was planning on not watching it forever, but my plan went wrong from the beginning.

Emily offered me tea.

“long time no see. hmm. It’s awkward to talk face to face like this. how have you been doing?”

“I’m doing well. “I’m glad you’re doing well too.”

Emily looked slightly surprised.

“Something has changed from before? So, um. I thought you would resent me a lot when you met me. “Did you break off the engagement because of my misunderstanding?”

“not really. “You are a victim too, so there is nothing to worry about.”

I tried to answer as plainly as possible.

‘It’s a shame to be cold here.’

Isn’t there a saying like this?

The opposite of affection is not hate, but indifference.

There was no need to be mean and earn hate. Then, if a flag is planted, it would be a big problem.

“thank god. “Actually, I wanted to meet you to tell you one more thing I’m sorry about.”

“what?”

“I’ll tell you straight. “I don’t want to get back together with you.”

“… … .”

Emily looked straight at me.

“You know, I originally wanted to be single and live for my family. “Then, because of all your unreasonable efforts, we had no choice but to get engaged.”

Van and Emily are from the same Rubiness Academy.

Emily is two years your senior.

It is said that he fell in love with Emily, his senior, at first sight, and after going through all sorts of inconveniences, they became engaged.

Maybe that’s why Emily’s eyes were full of boredom toward her class.

“I’m telling you clearly in advance because I’m afraid you might want to get back together. I never plan on getting back together with you… .”

“Me too.”

‘What kind of rice cake is this!’

I cried out in joy.

It was literally the story I was hoping for.

“Really? “Are you planning something else?”

Emily frowned, as if she had been burned by Van quite a bit in the past.

“do not worry. “You won’t have anything to worry about.”

“Keep in mind. “We are strangers now.”

Emily spoke strongly, as if urging.

I felt fortunate.

If Emily hated her class this much, it seemed like she wouldn’t have anything to worry about Flagg.

More than anything.

‘I don’t think I have any hesitation at all.’

perhaps.

If Emily came forward to reconcile what happened in the past and get along, it would have been difficult.

Because I would have been sorry to implement the ‘plan’ I was thinking of.

‘He’s a stranger I don’t have to worry about, so it won’t matter if I rob him.’

okay.

What I was trying to do now was to kill the person in front of me.

“Stop talking about unnecessary things and get to the point. “Please forgive Linden’s debt.”

“Why us?”

It’s important from now on.

I deliberately crossed my legs and made an arrogant appearance.

“Otherwise, your business will suffer enormous damage. “To the point where I might go bankrupt.”

“!!”

Emily made an absurd face.

“What nonsense?”

“Altran.”

Emily didn’t understand what I meant.

“By Altran, do you mean a collection agency that collects debts on your behalf? “What’s wrong with that?”

The upper reaches of the Rafalte duchy do not directly collect debts from small debtors.

Outsource to a collection agency that specializes in collecting.

“Are you managing it properly?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Are you saying there are no problems with Altran Trading Company, the collection agency contracted by your company?”

“okay.”

“really? “Are you truly sure?”

“!!”

Emily frowned.

“Okay, don’t look down on our top. “My direct subordinates have already thoroughly vetted and signed the contract.”

I nailed it.

“So, if the collection agency does something wrong, it’s your boss’s responsibility.”

“… that.”

“You say you’re confident, but you can’t give a definite answer. Balik said the same thing, and it looks like Duke Rafalt is just talking nonsense.”

“!!”

Emily’s face hardened.

“Take back that statement.”

“If you take responsibility for your words, take them back. “Can you guarantee on your own behalf that there will be no problems with Altran Trading Company?”

“… okay.”

done.

When I made a gesture, the stocky man who had been quietly following me like a shadow suddenly jumped out.

No one paid any attention to the man because he followed him pretending to be a servant.

“Emily, the owner of the merchant, is it true that you just said that you will take responsibility if the collection agency, Altran Corporation, commits an illegal act?!”

“… “What about you?”

“hehehe, I’m a reporter for ‘Gossip Daily’! Confucius Ban said he would give you a scoop if you followed him! “I have recorded everything you said just now with my ‘Recording Magic Tool!’”

Emily frowned.

A face that asks what the heck is going on.

“What kind of trick are you trying to pull?”

“Don’t misunderstand. “I’m just trying to reveal the truth.”

Before leaving.

The Black Flame Dragon left a quick word.

“I’m sure you’ll hear some unsavory news soon… Don’t be disappointed. “Like you said, we are strangers now.”

* * *

You damn bastard.

These were the feelings Emily had for Van.

One word was added after we had just reunited.

Crazy guy.

‘what? Bad news? There could be a problem at Altran Trading Company… .’

For a moment, Emily felt heartbroken.

‘… ‘Is it really not there?’

-Are you sure?

The appearance of the class was different from before.

An uneasy feeling rose up.

It was then.

“Sangdan lord, this is a big deal! “It is said that Confucius Ban is going to the Altran Company and causing mischief!”

“what?”

Emily frowned.

‘Then that’s right. What is change?!’

It reminded me of Ban’s past, when he was like a petulant child.

This time, he will go to the Altran Company again and try to find fault.

“I will go myself.”

When I entered the commercial building, an unexpected sight unfolded.

Security forces were on the scene.

Even knight-level ones.

“What’s going on with the guards’ knights?”

“that is… Confucius Ban reported that there is a black magician in the company here.”

“… I beg your pardon?”

Emily made a bewildered face.

There’s nothing to complain about, so you’re a warlock?!

This was not an acceptable behavior, no matter how trashy it was.

“Ban, are you crazy?!”

I shouted in anger.

However, instead of reflecting on his actions, half of them did even more crazy things.

“This is him.”

“… what?”

He raised his finger and pointed at one person.

He is the owner of Altran Company.

“This guy is a warlock.”

“!!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

The grizzled, good-looking Sanghoeju was as far away from a warlock as heaven and earth.

“Eh, Miss Emily? What is Confucius Banlegi saying now? “Do you think I’m a warlock?”

Emily’s eyebrows fluttered.

I thought I couldn’t be more disappointed with Ban, but I wasn’t.

Van’s patheticness seemed bottomless.

“Ban, how long are you going to live like an idiot? “How much more pathetic must I consider you?”
