I Became The Academy Necromancer

28. The Reality of Negotiation

After asking for a moment, Keren and the dean went outside.

When the door was closed because it was heavy, Darius and Deia, who were standing on either side of me like a folding screen, immediately turned and shouted.

“Did you not intend to go?”

“What, are you really not going?”

Seeing this, I felt the strength in my shoulders loosen without realizing it.

It was a very fitting chorus.

“Aren’t those conditions too exorbitant? And you said you would organize it at 150 million.”

Deia asks, looking worried. Rather than worrying that I might not be able to return to work, it seemed that they were more concerned about the possibility of staying in Northweden.

“The demands are too great. Private business trips can be granted, but the access to private galleries for research equipment and prohibited books at the Millenium Library… … .”

Darius’ complexion deteriorated as well, saying that the conditions were unreasonable. He also wanted to let go as soon as he thought that if I was here, I could be a threat to the head of the household.

“I have no choice but to listen.”

However, this was only because the two did not know each other. The academy has no time right now.

I can judge that no one has died since the necromancer was summoned, but there are still quite a few people who are suffering.

I can’t help it because I really stimulated the planting of the evil spirits.

“Really, are you going to return to work?”

“Yes, I intend to.”

When Deia sighed and answered the question, Darius, who was next to him, crossed his arms and stroked his chin.

“Honestly, I never imagined that the day would come when you would receive such great treatment. If it was 200 million, it far exceeded my personal assets.”

“Do you have personal assets? Wasn’t all the cash subordinated to the family?”

“Kuhm.”

Deia is staring at her first brother. After the negotiations were over, it seemed that the two would start negotiating again separately.

“Anyway, there are a lot of things left behind somewhere.”

I slightly shrug my shoulders at Deia, who glares at me.

“I am not.”

“I bet! Other than that, you learned dangerous things like necromancer! Dangerously.”

I didn’t have anything else to say about that, so I kept my mouth shut, and Deia snorted in amazement.

“Anyways, am I the only one thinking about my family? Where are you both going now! I’m the head of the family, so take responsibility!”

“Kuhm.”

Darius avoided looking at me and pretended not to hear, and I also gently closed my eyes and naturally ignored my sister’s whispers.

Suddenly, I thought that this might be family, and the corners of my mouth flinched, but soon I maintained my composure.

Deia, who had been arguing with Darius at the sound of knocking from outside, straightened up again.

Darius also forced a look of discomfort.

It was an issue discussed from the beginning to give the academy the feeling that they would not send me.

When I replied, “Come in,” the dean and Karen stood in negotiations again.

The dean, who had been sweating profusely from the whiteness of his face until just now, seemed to have cooled his head a bit, and his expression became much calmer.

I thought Karen would say it, but the dean answered right away with a nod.

“I will listen to the conditions. If you want a position other than a simple professor, I will give it to you. So please, reconsider reinstatement.”

It was indeed the right decision.

If he had tried to continue the negotiations, I would have added more terms one by one.

Perhaps knowing that, Karen also advised that taking it quickly would reduce bleeding.

“Our academy needs you. Not for me, but for the students. That alone is true. Students who are still very young and young need your help.”

“… … .”

“I hope you protect a place where children at a young age can grow up.”

The dean pleaded with a voice mixed with tears. It was clear that there were various political reasons, but the one he eventually chose after being driven to the end was a student.

Pretend to be worried for a while.

Tap your chin with your index finger. For the dean, this time must be as heavy as gold.

After wasting as much time as I could, I felt refreshed and told him what he wanted.

“good.”

“Ahh!”

The dean smiles brightly and raises his head. There was genuine happiness on his face.

“However, I will add one more condition. I don’t need another position, I’m a professor. I want to teach this first grade there.”

“Yeah, that’s not difficult!”

Rather, the dean nodded broadly saying that this condition was the easiest.

This freshman year was coveted by many professors as the Golden Horseman, but this level of condition was possible at the discretion of the dean.

I stood up, stretched out my hand and asked for a handshake, and the dean rushed over and grabbed my hand.

“Write a contract.”

“oh my! thank you!”

After that it passed quickly.

Anyway, the contract terms can be amended right away, and the details have already been confirmed.

The dean, who was shaking his hands while looking at the contract, was filled with a sense of accomplishment that he had accomplished a big job.

Karen, who had been keeping her mouth shut, stepped out and said.

“Can we leave right away? The state of the academy right now is not serious.”

“No, that’s right. Even now, students at the academy are suffering.”

Unfortunately, I couldn’t give the desired answer to my earnest voice.

“I’m sorry, but that’s hard. I still have work to do in Northweden.”

Emily hasn’t been given a funeral yet. I couldn’t go because I had planned to accompany the girl on her final journey.

“That, that… … .”

“You two go first. No matter how long it takes, I should be able to depart in two days.”

At that, the dean groaned and fell silent, and Keren put on a distraught expression, probably thinking she couldn’t ask for more.

The situation at the academy is so serious that they want to take me there as soon as possible.

So I came up with something to reassure them both.

“You don’t have to worry. My exclusive maid has already arrived at the academy and will be preparing for a solution in advance.”

“… … would you have arrived?”

Karen with a puzzled expression.

“What do you mean? It’s quite a distance from Northweden to Lovern Academy, so we can’t get there right away.”

“Ho, are you able to use warp magic?!”

The dean interrupted while Karen was talking. But when Karen heard that, she looked at Deius with her eyes wide open.

Could it be that the Verdi family has a wizard at a level that can introduce warp magic into practice?

However, as if such expectations were burdensome, Darius and Deia quietly turned their bodies away from their eyes.

I was ashamed as if I had been caught secretly, but I replied calmly.

“No, I set it off ahead of time.”

“Yes?”

The two of them opened their mouths dumbfounded. Everything that is to be known is already known anyway. Each other’s cards were also chipped.

The plate is over.

A magician does not have to explain the trick, and a gambler does not have to show the card hand to the opponent who shouted die.

Today I got satisfactory results.

I decided to inform the two of the reality of this negotiation table.

“A few days before you two arrived, I had already left my maid. For normalization of the academy.”

The dean still had an expression of incomprehension, but Keren was different.

He let out a despondent laugh, slapped his forehead, and said it was absurd.

“You, from the beginning, were you thinking of returning to the academy?”

He gently nodded his head without answering.

The academy was also a very important place for me.

It was the time when the main characters and their group were entering school, and it was a place where they could naturally help their growth.

In particular, the position of professor was a great advantage to me.

If possible, I intend to return to the academy unconditionally.

“ha ha ha.”

Karen, who has an expression of being completely stunned. They thought they were the overwhelming Eul, but in fact, they found out that it was a pretty doable situation.

A feeling of desolation was oozing from his face.

* * *

“Ugh, maybe it’s the city air. Sniff sniff, strangely reminding me of the Republic makes me feel dirty.”

After unloading the carriage, the white-haired maid, Finden-Ai, sniffed and looked around.

How long have you been living in Northwedon, and you’ve already come close to the heart of the kingdom?

It was quite a new feeling.

bang bang!

“You worked hard, come back well.”

When the carriage is hit, the coachman waves his hand and greets Finden-Ai, then slams the reins and starts driving the horses.

As the carriage left, Findenai, who was carrying his luggage, grinned at Robern, who was called the best academy in the Griffin Kingdom.

“Hey, look at the time. If I study in a place like this, my country will be excited too.”

Because it was a very revealing maid outfit, it stood out from the people around her, but Finden-I, who had already become accustomed to such gazes, headed towards the main gate of the academy with confident steps.
