Avoid Former Co-Workers

7 – 7. Victory Banquet (2)

Professor Jake somehow calmed down his voice and hardened his expression.

A professor who plays pranks on his students every time, not befitting the age of forty-four, but it was completely different now.

I know very well when that face appears.

-‘Never think that your vessel is small. I assure you that I have looked at you for years!! Junon, you’re better than anyone else here!!’

The desperate face he showed to help the students escape from a cornered situation was revealed in front of his eyes.

However, no one knows that he secretly fought a duel with Sylvia. At least Michelle was the closest, but she wasn’t.

So I calmly… No, shamelessly answered as if nothing had happened.

Professor Jake was silent for a while before uttering a voice full of worries, saying, “Don’t overdo it if possible.”

‘I didn’t mean to tell you when I was in the infirmary.’

I’ve been waiting for my body to recover and it’s a topic that I brought up now, but I can’t answer anything related to Sylvia.

First of all, I don’t really want my name to be known in any way.

The sun goes down and the day begins to get dark. Because it is winter, it seems that the toxic sun goes down quickly.

I put my textbooks and writing utensils in the locker in the hallway and headed to the fitness room today.

Until this point, I thought that I would no longer have anything to do with the Tembris members. However…

“Hello?”

Contrary to her restrained face, which seems to be completely incomprehensible, she has eyes that can see through the inside of her opponent.

In this life of hers, she hadn’t gotten to know her very well, and she was the number one person she most wanted to meet.

Senia stood in front of her.

Basically, a team must employ one person for each position and form a group of 6 or more people.

Since humans have many disadvantages when dealing with demon beasts, it is better to balance this with teamwork and appropriate role distribution.

Anyway, whether a team is formed or the team is designated as a named team and becomes a party, there are many times when a large number of people gather and put their heads together.

What if one team retreats or struggles against a monster?

It is not common that each person’s opinion is divided and opinions are divided. It is also a process that any team goes through at least once without exception.

But at the Thambris party, there was almost no such disagreement.

It is because there was a melee attack-type avant-garde that analyzes the characteristics and attack patterns of demon beasts and sharply detects their weaknesses.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with someone following me and talking to me, but it’s not unusual for Senia to follow me and talk to me now.

If someone else was watching, I’d figure out how to pass it on, but if it’s Senia, the story will be different.

‘It’s dangerous. Why does he…?’

There are few people who can follow that insight. Even if it was not the Tembris party, but the whole continent of Kempreton.

Since it’s Senia who can guess what I’m hiding and what’s going to happen next just by a small action, the current situation isn’t good.

If I were to catch even one pod, I would delve deep into the clue and draw a conclusion faster than anyone else.

“I think I only saw him stop by the magic training room every time. I never thought he would change his course to train his body.”

Damn it. Even Professor Jake didn’t notice this right away. Now, Senia means I’ve finished guessing with just one visit to the gym.

Other people might think it’s strange and ask why they did it… The ability to grasp something is a different talent.

I don’t think I should give you any more information. From the moment I met Senia, today’s training was wrong.

It would be a good idea to go to the dormitory and think about how to deal with them. However.

“If you go on like this, only you will be frustrated.”

As I turned her body and tried to escape through her exit, Senia blocked my way with her sword sheath and tried to continue her conversation.

“I’d like to know how you beat Sylvia. You know very well that she’s not a kid who can be dealt with simply by bumping into her body, right?”

…Damn it.

You mean you saw that?

Human beings are animals of emotions, and every human being has one secret or hidden part that can react sensitively.

‘It’s not as easy as I thought.’

However, the wall Junon hit is so strong that it is difficult to break through.

I saw you fighting Sylvia, Junon. That’s why I said it out loud.

‘But I can’t help it either.’

Since there is a high possibility that Dalian exams will be included in the end-of-semester and early-semester evaluations to be taken for next year’s class assignment, I had to somehow find a way to overcome the wall of C class.

In the meantime, didn’t you witness the victory of Class E’s Junon against Class C’s Sylvia? It was a mouth-watering result.

It’s unfortunate that she didn’t see the whole battle process, so Senia decided that it would be most effective to ask her party.

“…I don’t know. It must have been just luck.”

“Um~ You’re going to make excuses like that?”

Even though Junon is still acting like that.

“Why are you doing this? Junon, I think you should know better that it’s not an opponent that can be simply dismissed as luck.”

“So, isn’t it possible that the other person was more vigilant? I think you’re talking too much.”

“If the nobles sparred among themselves, that might be the case. But if it’s a commoner or loses against class D and E students, that’s a problem, right?”

Senia logically refuted Junon’s arguments one by one.

She keeps making excuses and avoids asking questions, but Senia does not waver and returns to Bonje to ask questions.

The idea that this is not going to be possible hangs in Junon’s mind.

‘No matter what excuse I make now, it won’t work anymore.’

Predicting that going on like this would lead to bad results, Junon had no choice but to close his mouth and start running.

“Huh…? Hey, Hey!!! Child…!!”

Didn’t Junon suddenly cut him off and run away?

Senia was visibly taken aback when the unexpected happened.

You’re almost there. She waited for an answer because she thought she would confess soon, but she ran at it, wondering what the hell was going on.

But did Junon’s exercises, which he had built up over the past few days, worked? Senia couldn’t keep up with Junon.

“What the hell…?”

Dumbfounded, Senia caught her breath and looked blankly at the end of the corridor where Junon had disappeared, muttering with regret.

“Ha… I thought I had almost dug it up.”

***

That’s it. Somehow, it seems that Senia distanced herself enough to keep her from pursuing her.

With Senia out of sight, she was able to sit down in a corner and catch her breath.

She thought it would be a place with no one there, but did Senia see it at that time?

Are you still happy? I don’t think Senia watched it from beginning to end.

Avoiding Michelle, she never thought she would run into Senia.

‘You guys don’t want to run into each other as much as possible.’

In fact, you don’t even need me.

Even if I’m not there, it’s a named party where each person’s role is set and there’s no shortage.

Then there’s no need for me to enter there and be a member of a party that might cause a backlash.

If I fall into their eyes and enter Thembris again, there will be another dispute between the party members.

Still, good-natured kids like Michelle and Senia were extremely opposed to those who tried to kick me out…

If it is inevitable that the number of friendly party members will decrease at the end of the conflict, including Michelle and Senia, then I will go through the same procedure once again.

So I have no choice but to avoid it. Not to go back to that party, not to die at the hands of those who didn’t want me to.

From noble mtl dot com

“…It’s hard, it’s hard.”

“What’s hard?”

“What’s difficult. Where people live…”

Wait, wasn’t I the only one here?

While she was complaining to herself, she wondered if Senia was following her, so when she turned her head in the direction where the sound came from, a girl with a beautiful appearance stood with her hands behind her back.

“Ahang, are you saying that because of the end-of-semester evaluation?”

It’s the first time I’ve heard this clear voice, but I know who this girl is.

This girl who clapped with both hands as if she knew it was the object of envy of all ages and genders at the Levant Academy.

-‘If you look at it from afar at night, you can see a subtle glow, so you can see it all just by walking around.’

-‘At night, even during the day, if you go to a slightly darker place, you can see everything. I heard that the magic circulation rate reaches its limit, so even the hair shines.’

-‘Perhaps most men would pick Lady Rhenias as their ideal type. Silver hair and black eyes that reflect the night sky! Isn’t it so pretty?’

-‘I saw it myself, and when I see a smiling face telling us to cheer up, both men and women might fall in love with it. That’s pretty.’

The appearance, which I had heard only through rumors, also matched.

Even in a shady place, that silver hair showed off a fresh glow, and the features that made her immaculate skin and neat face stand out.

“Don’t worry, I’ll do my best not to worry you!”

Lastly, if you are aristocrats or those in the upper classes, most of them are treated with respect, which is not the case with commoners and students in the lower classes.

This is the idol of Levant Academy. It was Rhenias.
