After I Stopped Sponsoring, the Female Leads Began Obsessing Over Me

60 – Preparation

“The response to the disciplinary committee should proceed from three perspectives.

First. Secure the supremacy of power. We have to have enough authority on our side. We need to secure professors and officials.

The second is logical superiority. Of course, the more favorable evidence or circumstances there are, the more advantageous it is. But you have to keep in mind. Because logic doesn’t guarantee everything.

The third is the superiority of public opinion. This is why I wanted Lee An-ssi to act. Well done. And just yesterday I found a good hand… I’ll tell you about it later.”

The day after the measurement ceremony.

Ian, who received a call from Sylvia, was dragged to a cafe out of nowhere.

— 2 People are enough to meet someone else in front of your house! Now you come to my house!

For some reason, Sylvia seems angry.

As soon as he was dragged out, he sat down in a room deep in the cafe and immediately briefed the disciplinary committee on countermeasures.

Since it was a disciplinary committee approaching the next day, I immediately focused on it, but…

Sylvia’s face flushed slightly as she pretended to be calm and poured out her words.

“I’ll continue this story later. There’s something I want to talk about.”

Flap Padak.

She fanned her hand gracefully, then shot it.

“Isn’t it too much of a reason to go home?! Hmm!”

Sylvia, with her angry face, held out her paper bag on her table before her Ian had time to say anything.

“I wasn’t going to give it to you… But if it melts, I give it to you because it would be a waste.”

A pouty expression.

From Sylvia’s point of view, she went to the house twice to deliver this, but she failed, and since she only saw useless competitors… She was even more like that.

Meanwhile, Ian looked curiously at her paper bag. Cold steam was constantly pouring out of the envelope.

“It is a special product brought from the northern territory.”

“Can I take it out?”

“Sure.”

Sweep.

In a paper bag was a bunch of fruit.

But she was startled.

“An ultra-luxurious specialty that can only be found in the northern part of the continent. It’s an iced grapefruit.”

The visual of that fruit was like Shine Musket Tanghulu. The only difference is that the outside is made of ice instead of sugar.

Seeing Ian in her amazement, Sylvia calmed down her pout. Rather, she is to the extent that she continues to laugh nonchalantly.

‘Kuhmm. This is how my face…’

Sylvia said, suppressing the corner of her mouth that was about to go up.

“Just stare blankly at something. Eat it quickly. It won’t taste good if it melts.”

“I’ll eat well.”

Ian bit off a piece of iced grapefruit.

The sweet ice is crunchy and shattered. Then, the flesh of sweet and sour green grapes bursts with moisture.

“…With.”

“How is it? Is it delicious?”

“This is the first time I’ve eaten such a delicious fruit in my life.”

Grinning.

Sylvia couldn’t hide the corners of her mouth that went up, and she finally turned her head away.

“Hmph. Well, since you ate well, would you like to watch this one more time?”

“Watch me? What?”

“Nothing.”

As if in a good mood, Sylvia puts a piece of ice grape in her mouth and laughs.

“It’s delicious…Keuhmm. Anyway, to the point.”

Slowly.

Sylvia elegantly took out a piece of paper and a fountain pen from her bag.

Sseuk, sseuk.

Two precise vertical lines drawn from Sylvia’s hand, earnestly concentrating on the paper, divide the notebook into thirds.

At times like this, you’re really professional and aristocratic.

Sylvia’s ear lobe reddens with admiration and embarrassment at Ian’s eyes.

Sylvia brushed her hair to the side and lowered her upper body.

“First, secure the faculty. Professor Violet, whom Mr. Ian seduced, Professor Rowen of the Department of Reconnaissance, and Professor Susie Dismal of Clinical Magic will be of great help. Again, this is amazing. When did the professors seduce you like this? All of that, too. With women.”

“… I didn’t flirt with you. Don’t talk about trouble.”

Ian trembled his body.

Professors aiming for themselves as research students.

They’re spinning a web and aiming for you.

“Ah. Come to think of it, there’s also Dean Jan Bommel.”

After the grading, he apologized profusely for ignoring Ian and at the same time asked what he needed. Ian asked for support from the disciplinary committee.

— Hmm. I heard about the disciplinary committee. But I can’t support you as much as Sharon Pierce, a student from our undergraduate school, is involved. Instead, I will definitely protect neutrality.

Sylvia is surprised when I tell him what he said.

From noble mtl dot com

“… Wow. That Sir Jan Bommel said that…? That’s great, isn’t it?”

Sylvia was genuinely impressed.

The full support of the three professors and the interest of the deans of other departments.

Is there any cadet other than Ian who starts from the bottom and gets the attention of professors in such a short time?

She wasn’t, at least not among the people she knew.

‘As expected, he’s a better person than I thought.’

Sylvia’s eyes deepened as she looked at Ian.

“Even though it was quite good, it is Emilia Raymond who moves the heavyweights of the academy. I expect her to have the upper hand.”

Sylvia’s fountain pen moved over to her second compartment.

[ Securing Evidence ]

“This could actually be our special move. The appraisal result that Mr. Ian asked for will probably come out this evening.”

And the last column.

[ Securing Public Opinion ]

“I simply ordered my subordinates to investigate, but the public opinion of Mr. Ian is not bad.”

“Hmm.”

“In the past, the words associated with Ian were words like ‘naughty’ and ‘perverted’, but now they have changed to ‘crazy’, ‘fun’, and ‘curious’. Quite a positive change. Now you are both in name and reality. It’s the hottest potato at the Lichten Academy.”

“… It’s quite serious. It’s almost at the level of Korea…No country where I was.”

Ian’s expression of admiration.

Sylvia lifted her chin.

“Hoho. I need to make this kind of thing straight. Based on this, I can make a little more elaborate plan, but…”

“Maybe?”

“Actually, there is one good way.”

Sylvia’s eyes become more serious.

“Because there’s someone who can be of great help?”

Sylvia’s voice was cautious as if she were about to tell a very difficult story.

“What do you think of Lena Roswell?”

“Don’t you have any idea?”

It’s a pity that she couldn’t confirm whether she was a virgin or not, but now it’s reasonable to say that the possibility that she is the culprit is quite low.

That’s why Lina is already far away from Ian’s attention.

“…Sure. Hold on.”

Having said that, Sylvia stood up from her seat.

She goes out of the room again and again.

Then came her familiar voice.

“This, Ian.”

The heroine of Fanta Aca who is always full of confidence and cheerful.

“Hello… How are you?”

Lena Roswell was looking up this way with her haggard, strained face.

◆

Lina’s expression was complicated.

She seemed nervous at first glance, and a pity oozes from her timid demeanor. But she smiled in full bloom as if she was happy.

Ian didn’t know how to describe that face.

“Don’t just stand there, come and sit down.”

“Is that okay?”

“…Stay still?”

“Ugh, no! Thanks.”

As she was walking, Lina sat down as if her legs gave out.

“Uh, uh, why are you like this? Suddenly, her legs lose strength. I’m sorry. I’ll be back soon…”

She sighed and Ian grabbed her and sat her in her chair.

“Mi-sorry. Thank you.”

Lina bowed her head.

Then once she looks up this way, she lowers her head again.

“De, I’m glad we finally met. Ehehehe…”

She murmurs in her.

Through her bowed head, her eyes were full of hope, as if she had found an oasis in the desert.

What does she find her hope in Ian? The sudden curiosity quickly faded like water droplets on sand.

Ian’s current interest was not in Lina.

Ian looked at her watch.

She then let out a small sigh.

Lina’s shoulders tremble at the sight of her.

Ian asked, ignoring it.

“So. What’s the matter?”

“Ah…Well, there. That. E. E. There’s something I want to tell you.”

“Could you tell me as simply as possible?”

“Is it simple?”

“Yes.”

Where did the hopeful expression from before go?

In an instant, Lina made an expression like a frightened puppy.

“I-I didn’t prepare anything simple. Mi-I’m sorry…”

Lina, who had been muttering, opened her mouth to speak gibberish.

“That, you know? I want to say I’m sorry to you. Yes. I was worried a lot? That, that. You asked. Did I push you? Maybe that’s why I was framed? I thought. Eh, just kids. I tried to drive you away. I, I, I was weird… But I’m so sorry. Hee-g-p… I did something wrong. I’m sorry. I hope you punish me…”

“Lina.”

“Huh… Huh?”

“Because tomorrow is the disciplinary committee? I’m very busy. So can you tell me the main point in one sentence?”

“Ah… Well, there! Well… No, I have to say it. Yes. Just the point. Just one thing. There are so many things I want to say… But I did it wrong.”

Huddeuk.

Suddenly, tears poured from her eyes.

“Ha, I’ll apologize if I can only say one thing. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Ian. I was really wrong. You were the only one who really looked after me. You took care of me, and then you looked at me coldly. But I didn’t recognize that either. .Me, I. I was like an idiot. I ignored you, I was jealous, I attacked you. I’m sorry, I’m really sorry…”

Tears dripped from Lina as she bowed her head.

Her quivering lips were wet and glossy with her tears, and her legs reddened as she scraped her fingers to hold back her tears.

Ian looked at Lina who trembled like an aspen tree.

‘… I don’t know what to say.’

She didn’t touch her.

After pondering for a while, Ian made up his mind to speak honestly.

“You know, Lina.”

“Huh. Heughugh… Yes.”

“I think it would be better for both of us this way, so I’ll be honest with you.”

“Awesome… Yes, yes.”

“Your apology doesn’t touch me very much. I just think Lina is sorry? I don’t think my life will change just because you’re sorry.”

“Hugh!”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t accept it. If I don’t have anything else to say…”

Ian got up from his seat.

Since she is emotional, she still had many crises to go through.

If you don’t resolve the disciplinary committee tomorrow, you will be kicked out of the academy. Then, how will you deal with the main scenario that follows?

I will be far from all future scenarios, and the future is clear when I have to look at the bed ending.

Maybe that’s why Rina’s apology didn’t touch me. She can’t afford to be sentimental.

So Ian walked out of the room.

No, I tried to walk away.

Stiff legs.

“I-Ian…”

As she lowered her head, Lina was holding onto the crotch of her pants.

“…Lina. I don’t have time to write to you right now.”

Rina shakes her head earnestly.

“Mi, I’m sorry. It’s not like that. It’s not my story. Eh, I know now. No matter how much I apologize to a lugworm like me, it only bothers me. I won’t bother you. Instead, I, I will help you. There is something. Sylvia said so.”

Ian quietly looked down at Lina.

Lina hurriedly continued her words.

“Gee, because I can testify before the disciplinary committee. Give me a chance to prove I’m useful. Instead.”

“… Instead?”

“I’ll work hard on the disciplinary committee. After that, can you talk to me… Just once?”

Ian looked down at her for a moment.

Infinitely earnest and sincere eyes.

It’s a look that I couldn’t see from Lina, who was loved and cheerful by everyone in Fanta X Ark.

Ian quietly nodded her head.

“Thank you very much. hehehe… Thank you.”

Tears fell from Rina.

◆

A desolate lodging with nothing.

Kneeling in front of her sitting desk, Sharon slowly read her letter from her family.

To sum it up, it was this.

— As with all successors, excessive economic support was not allowed. The complacency in the rating scale is regrettable.

— Just keep an eye out for the Black Angus family.

There are people I know who are interested. Let him receive full punishment for his sins. The more desperate he is, the better. He is guilty of so much I will send someone to the disciplinary committee. It seems to arrive on the morning of the day, so welcome it well.

“……”

Sharon gritted her teeth.

There was even more talk about Ian Black Angus than about Sharon herself.

“Why… Why.”

Is it that he is more interested in Ian than himself, a blood relative? Did you know that this person cursed Sharon herself?

I can’t help it.

The only way to get his attention is to prove it.

The Coming Disciplinary Commission.

This must be the last chance to catch the eye of the family head.

Sharon clenched her fist as her hand was crushed.

◆

On the day of the disciplinary committee.

Basement of Liechten Academy’s main building.

There is a solemn atmosphere here where the committee is located.

An interior designed to make the suspect feel intimidated.

‘Are these loathsome disciplinary committees finally over?’

In front of the cold iron gate.

The corners of Ian’s mouth went up.
