Entering the school for nothing (328)
Lesson 64. Freshman – 3
There are four people who have become a hot topic at Union this year, and one of them is Yu-Won Ban.
First, about Shati and Mira’s appointment as professors.
There were many positive reactions, but there were definitely negative reactions, and most of them were occupied by dirty predictions that doubted the girls’ qualifications and assumed the relationship between them and Banyuwon and furthermore, Banyuwon and the president.
“I don’t know what everyone is misunderstanding.”
Shati, who was in charge of [Special Magical Magic and Monsters], a new subject that can be taken by students in 3rd grade or higher, smiled fiercely at the students who were her juniors just a few months ago and said.
“No matter how vacant the academy’s full professor line is, it’s not that easy to hire a professor at Union. Those who excitedly claimed to be anonymous on the intranet will soon find out the truth.”
“But the professor was a student until last year… that’s…”
“You.”
It was the moment Shati had been waiting for.
“You, you, you, and there, the guy behind you, the guy you chatted with right there, don’t look behind you. There’s no one there. And two in the front. All ten of you come forward.”
“Uh Professor.”
“Come out.”
In an instant, ten scapegoats were dragged out to the front of the lecture hall.
From there, Shati snapped her fingers and jumped into the air—a gigantic demon whose entire body was covered in translucent gray metal appeared.
Starting as a Bronze Devil, he was continuously supplied with his master’s annihilation mana, and eventually transcended the limit and evolved into a new species called the Titan Devil – well, to put it simply, it was a family member that was a product of chance.
[Did you call, Master.]
“Make a stage and wait for the battle.”
[As you like.]
The students froze at the appearance of a monster that could not be seen anywhere.
Even for those who climbed the Tower of Babel every week and dealt with quite a few types of monsters, the Titan Devil’s majesty was enormous.
One of the students who questioned Shati’s qualifications behind her back, grumbled that she had never brought out a summons like that when she was a student, but hiding her abilities well is part of her skills, and not making rash judgments is also a virtue.
“So now you know what to do?”
As part of the classroom space was expanded and space was prepared for battle, Shati snapped her fingers again.
“All of you charge at my summons. If you even kill the summons, I’ll give all of you a shop and make sure you don’t have to worry about failing this semester. … You know when you lose the Titan Devil, right?”
[Believe me.]
Even when he was summoned for the first time, he had shown his mettle, such as arguing that he would rather kill Shati or desperately ignoring her even though his whole body was tied up, but now he was Shati’s complete servant.
Well, it was strange that he didn’t become compliant because he had to indirectly taste the screams of other demons who died every time her power was used due to being connected to Shati’s power by force.
“Okay… I will, Professor.”
“No matter how hard it is, you’re looking down on us too much for 10 enrolled students climbing the tower.”
“First, form a team! Those who will go to the front line… Ah, he’s coming!”
[They don’t wait!]
The moment the 10 students stepped onto the stage, the Titan Devil rushed at them with shining eyes.
With a huge body, hard and sharp skin, and claws with destructive power under the influence of the owner’s magical powers, the Titan Devil has become a perfect melee monster.
As soon as one student, whose posture was disturbed, was hit by a nail, all the defensive barriers were destroyed and thrown out, the remaining nine students shuddered and quickly prepared their own means of attack.
“Push on and you’re done!”
“Damn it, what level is that guy!”
“I’ll just let you know that it’s over 200.”
“I beg your pardon?!”
An unprecedented disaster that occurred outside Union two years ago.
Those who stepped in even a little bit experienced growth as dense as the life that died in the incident.
Shati was also included in it… The two years at Union, where she took off with the strength she had acquired at the time, really gave her the skills to face the full professor head-on.
…In other words, the average of most Union Academy students who had nothing to do with it remained the same.
When I reached the graduate level, I could see that it was about 1000 4 years old (shēng) based on the level 100 semi-yuwon standard, and it was in the ranks of the strongmen who were recognized at the upper level, but Shati was already beyond that standard at the beginning of the 3rd year.
And now, two years later, even Shati’s pet, the Titan Devil, was far beyond that.
“I’m weak, I’m weak, I’m weak! At this level, when someone is aiming at you, you won’t even be able to scream and you’ll be swallowed up!”
“Who’s targeting us at Union Academy!”
The smile on Shati’s lips grew thicker when she heard one of the students, who had been hit by the Titan Devil’s hard fist and rolled on the floor, cry out in remorse.
“At your level now, you wouldn’t even know you were being targeted. So, in the time to question the qualifications of others and talk behind your back, improve your skills. All ten are 5 penalty points. It’s the first day, so I know they’ll treat you like this.”
“Keuuu…”
If Shati proved her authority through violent and sure means, Mira was the opposite.
In the first place, fairies rarely come out to the outer dimension and act, and those few fairies usually draw attention for their exceptional power and beauty.
Even the students, who were talking dirty about the relationship between Mira and Banyuwon behind the scenes, turned white when Mira, dressed in the professor’s uniform, entered the classroom.
It just felt perfectly natural for her to be in the professor’s chair.
“Before the lecture begins, let me say a few things. As you all know, Professor Campanella, the full professor of the Artifact Production Department, took a sabbatical this year. I have to go through all the lectures assigned to him, so I don’t have time to waste on useless questions.”
Mira declared by striking the podium with a long pointer.
“That’s why anyone who asks questions about something that can be known just by listening to the class gets a penalty point. If it’s a really important question, ask it during the lecture and don’t come after the lecture.”
It was a very unkind declaration, but the students who were distracted by Mira’s charms simply nodded.
“This year, the academy is flooded with donations, so we will be able to experiment with artifact production. If you have a brain, you can understand why there are so many applications for the Artifact Production Department this year, but if you talk about it on the intranet and cause damage to a strict person… I won’t let it go.”
The Union student body president belongs to the Artifact Production Department, and the Artifact Production Department’s budget this year is not necessarily the same, but it was plentiful.
Some of the students who know that the strict person Mira is talking about is Ban Yu-won, ‘Professor Mira is too precious to the student council president.’ ‘Now that it’s like this, I want to fuck the student council president even if I’m forced to.’ I thought.
It was a thought that could be made because the current student president did not know how much the president favored him despite his rebellious tendencies.
“Professor, I have a question for you.”
“I told you earlier not to ask useless questions… what is it?”
“Can you tell me what the jewel is on the ring on the ring finger of my left hand? This is a mineral I’ve never seen before, so I’m intrigued!”
In response to the 3rd grade female student’s question, Mira raised her left hand as if to show it on purpose, and smiled pleasantly.
“That was a good question. I’ll give you 5 store points.”
“thank you!”
Mira, who is as unhesitating as Yumina in abusing her power, held up the purple gem from the ring on her ring finger for all to see.
“You know that my fiancé is in the Artifact Production Department, right? This is a jewelry he made himself to propose to me. It’s just pretty to look at, but can you guys guess how much thought and material magic went into making this? If you know that, you will be qualified to graduate from the academy.”
“You… made it yourself?”
Aside from Mira’s pride in confusing construction work, the female student who asked the absurdity of the content put on a dumbfounded expression.
Having succeeded in analyzing the composition of the gem even a little, she realized how absurd it was.
Wouldn’t it be half stepping into the realm of the Creator? she exaggerated a little.
“Whoops, so even if you want this jewel, you can’t have it. Make this your goal and work hard. got it?”
“Then Professor, um… why isn’t the student president in this lecture?”
“that.”
Mira pursed her lips, thinking that she wanted to penalize the student who just asked the question.
Mira sighed and said to the students who were completely mesmerized by the breathtakingly beautiful appearance.
“That’s because the power I have as a professor is being beaten by the goddamn… kuhmm vice-president.”
* * *
The Ortima family inherits power from generation to generation, counted among the top ten families.
Unlike Prominence, which made a contract with the Constellation early on and foolishly wastes the power of its innate lineage and deals with the degraded power of the Constellation, Ortima developed a strong and prosperous force without relying on the Constellation, and this was possible because of Ortima’s succession policy.
Unlike Prominence, which borrowed the power of the Constellation to increase the stability of authority and made ‘more people able to handle authority’, Ortima’s family was built around a small number of elites who wield overwhelming authority.
Regardless of whether he was from a direct or collateral line, as long as Ortima’s blood flowed and he could handle strong authority, he would soon become the successor and support Ortima.
As far as the Ortima family was concerned, it was a strict meritocracy. In other words, as long as Ortima’s blood was mixed, it was also a bizarre bloodlineism with the perception that it would become precious regardless of how lowly the blood was in it.
If you have a brain, you will know that this is a very practical and wise way.
Obsessed with lineage, they end up with all sorts of genetic diseases, or they put an incompetent person in the position of the head of the household and perish, or a talented person who has excellent ability but is not treated well within the family is leaked out, or conversely, such talented person harbors a grudge against the family and rebels…
.
However, since Ortima values skills, there is no such thing as a commotion like this.
The only thing that matters is whether Ortima’s blood is mixed or not.
The arrogance of belittling everything except Ortima and the ugliness of allying with pirate groups like the Exodus for their own authority were repulsive, but at least they never questioned their status as the head of a teenage family.
Not even once.
And that was the reason why Luisha Heilfalomer Equinas Ortima became the heir to the family, overtaking the legitimate bloodline Lusse, Rowanpalomer Equinas Ortima.
‘That man. The man who brought down Lusane’s older brother from the position of heir to the family…!’
Louisa Ortima’s eyes narrowed extremely when she noticed the figure of a man standing near the podium as a student in the same classroom… no, for some reason.
The lecture she attended now is a lecture that is famous for all the students who listen to the lecture from the first grade to the upper grade because the number of students in the entire school is so small.
Two years ago, Zenon’s Babylon and Constellation lectures were abolished, and Yumina, who took over as vice president, officially opened ‘Understanding of Power’.
‘I understand that the innate authority is extremely strong. But why are you standing there!’
Understanding Power is a lecture for the extremely chosen, and it is a lecture that helps people understand and explore various types of powers that are innate from birth more easily.
In a way, there was something in common with the project that Ban Yu-won carried out through the Union travel club in his first year.
Mina Yu, who noticed the rapid growth of students from the special selection who trained according to the curriculum of Banyuwon during the school year, made a formal proposal to the president.
“So the student council president… helps with the lecture?”
“Ah, first-year students don’t know yet. Yuwon Lee Kheum is the student council president and assistant. Just looking at last year, there are so many students whose talents have blossomed thanks to the student council president, so I hope everyone will believe in me and follow me.”
“Thank you, everyone.”
Not only the special selection students, but also the students from the higher dimension are often born with the power.
Of course, unlike the special students who have to head to the ground and develop their authority, most of them train according to the training methods systematically organized within their family, but for the past two years, rumors have circulated that there is a training method at the academy that is “universal and systematic, incomparable to family training, but eventually advances to the professional realm.”
That identity was the lecture on understanding this authority, and at this point even Luisha, the heir to the teenage family, couldn’t help but listen to the lecture… I never thought there would be a
trap card like this!
Louisa calmed her trembling body and raised her hand.
“Professor before——.”
“Ah, it is still possible to correct course registration. If you do not like the teaching method, please apply immediately to the administration office.”
Yumina smiles and explains as if she has read Luisha’s mind.
Standing next to her, Banyuwon was smiling as if she were following Yumina, but perhaps because of her mood, as if she was looking directly at herself, Louisa, embarrassed, lowered her hand with her cheeks blushing.
‘If I withdraw from here… I will lose.’
She gritted her teeth and justified the pounding in her chest.
‘I’ll win. I will take the teachings of that person and transcend that person! I’ll make the Ortima family pay the price for fooling around!’
The 20-year-old girl’s carelessness was replaced by clumsy hostility and enthusiasm and headed for Banyuwon.
What was Ban Yu-won thinking, receiving her hot gaze?
‘Lucaine Ortima never came. …Shall we go catch it?’
She was thinking of her cousin brother.
