Episode 34 – Repairman Enters the Academy (2)

“Okay, then, let’s end today’s lecture and submit the assignment by next week. “Everyone worked hard.”

After finishing her morning class, Elena took her textbooks and written notes and got up from her seat.

“Elena. “I have a meeting with the professor today, so I don’t think we can have lunch together.”

“It’s okay. “I hope the interview goes well.”

Today was the day of Mina’s meeting with the professor, so Elena broke up with Mina and headed to the dormitory alone.

Elena was not without other friends besides Mina.

But starting this week, personal assignments were pouring in like a waterfall.

So Elena’s friends were losing sleep every day trying to solve her personal problems.

Elena was also studying, reducing her sleep every day to solve individual tasks.

‘I’m tired…’ ….’

Elena walked towards the dormitory with a tired look on her face.

What she needed now was not to fill her body with the nutrients it needed, but to give her exhausted body time to rest so that it could recover.

Fortunately, today was the only morning class day, so she went back to her dorm and tried to get her rest.

But when she arrived in front of the dormitory, she met an unexpected person.

“Huh?”

“Pa, Pathos?”

That is, the owner of Pathos Repair Shop and the man chosen by the Great Goddess.

“What is going on at the academy, Pathos?”

Patos, who she thought was Epitrina’s apostle, was standing at the entrance to the dormitory with Shannon, the president’s secretary.

“Oh my? Miss Elena. “Do you two know each other?”

Shannon seemed quite surprised that Elena recognized pathos.

“Oh, yes.”

Elena responded to her answer to Shannon’s question by glossing over her words.

Because, if she told her reason for finding out about Pathos, she would have to tell him in detail what kind of indecent behavior she had done at Pathos’ store.

Telling all this was a blemish on her pride, and it also revealed that Pathos was Epitrina’s apostle.

No one had yet heard of an oracle coming down from the temple of the great goddess Epitrina regarding her apostle.

So what if she decides to tell someone that Pathos is an apostle of Epitrina, and the fact is revealed to the whole world?

She would certainly suffer her divine punishment for disobeying Epitrina’s will, both for herself and for her own family.

Because Epitrina was not a goddess so merciful that she would lightly overlook the violation of her own will.

So Elena, who knew the goddess Epirina well, never intended to reveal that Pathos was Epirina’s apostle.

“The crystal ball on my close friend Mina’s magic wand was damaged, and Mr. Pathos here repaired it perfectly. That’s why I know this person’s name.”

Although Elena was tired, she answered politely, holding on to her sanity as best as she could to maintain her dignity as a cultured noblewoman.

“Oh my, did something like that happen?”

Upon hearing her answer, Shannon was very surprised, saying it was her first time hearing this story.

“Then that’s good! Miss Elena, can you help Mr. Pathos adjust to the academy?”

“I want to do that too, but I think it will be difficult because personal assignments are pouring in every day.”

Elena politely declined Shannon’s request with a tired look on her face.

“Hmm, then there is nothing we can do. Sorry. Still, I thought it would be good if someone I knew could guide me to the academy. I guess it was an unreasonable request. You look tired. Please go in and rest. “I’ll ask another student to guide me through the academy.”

“Yes, thank you. Well then…….”

Elena passed by Shannon and Pathos and entered the dormitory.

She needed to get some sleep in the afternoon so she could reserve stamina for her homework.

After returning to the dormitory, Elena fell onto the bed, and after a while, only the sound of her snoring could be heard in her dormitory room.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

I looked at Elena’s back as she entered her dormitory.

The sight of her back, tired, going up to the dormitory, was like seeing me in her past life.

“Everyone looks very tired.”

“At our academy, there are no mid-term evaluations, but many individual assignments are given.”

“So there is no exam at all?”

“Only ‘medium’ evaluation. There is an end-of-semester evaluation. “The end-of-semester evaluation was actually more difficult than it is now because everything I learned in one semester was evaluated.”

The end-of-semester evaluation was more difficult. You talk like someone who has experienced it?

Could it be that Mr. Shannon is also a graduate of Glessius Academy?

“You speak as if you have experienced it.”

“Of course. I’m also a Glesius Academy graduate? “It’s been about 10 years.”

Hmm, as expected. As I expected, she also seemed to be a graduate of Glesius Academy.

“But, she is more than 10 years old, which means that Ms. Shannon is at least older…” ….”

“Pathos? Shhh.”

As I was about to tell Shannon her age, she lifted her hand and pressed her fingers to my lips.

“It is very rude to ask a woman’s age carelessly.”

―Nod.

I responded to her words by nodding her head as Shannon’s fingers pressed against her lips.

Shannon seemed satisfied when she saw me nod her head and removed her finger from my lips.

“Okay, then follow me. “I will tell you the room where Pathos will stay for the next four years.”

Shannon guided me to a rather fancy building.

It was the same building that Elena entered earlier.

“Since it has been confirmed that Mr. Pathos is an ability user, he will be treated the same as a noble from now on. So, the President has arranged for Pathos to be able to stay in a dormitory for nobles.”

Come to think of it, Serin was like that.

Ability users are treated as nobles even if they are commoners, and when they graduate from the academy, they are given noble status.

It seemed that those words were followed even when entering the academy.

But, aren’t commoners and nobles usually treated equally within the academy?

It appears like that in other novels, but is it different here because it’s a game?

“By the way, don’t both commoners and nobles receive education on equal footing within the academy?”

“Yes? “What does that mean?”

Shannon looked like she didn’t understand when she heard the question I asked.

“So, aren’t educational opportunities originally given equally?”

“Hey, what are you talking about? Oh, I said that in the Eastern Continent, you receive the same teachings regardless of your status at any educational institution. “You may not know this in the Eastern Continent, but at Glesius Academy, you receive different education depending on your status.”

“Is that so?”

“Of course. “Glesius Academy is a higher education institution that provides education tailored to each person’s position, not equal education.”

Shannon’s explanation was as follows.

In the Gelevrio Empire, education was not a means to rise to a higher position, but a means to create the talent the empire needed.

So, even at the Glesius Academy, commoners and nobles were to receive different education.

“So, what kind of education will I receive?”

“Hmm. Well? I’m not sure about that part because I can’t be involved. Please visit the president later. “I don’t know if it’s anyone else, but if Pathos asks, he’ll be very kind and give you detailed information.”

I had doubts about Shannon’s answer.

After listening to it, it sounded like the president did not answer kindly when other people asked questions.

I once again asked Shanyon a question about this.

“Well, honestly, this is a secret… “Pathos healed the president, so it’s a story worth hearing.”

Only after Shannon confirmed that there was no one around, she put her mouth to my ear and started talking.

“In fact, the president has not been able to go outside for over three years due to the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation. Because the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation made it difficult for me to meet someone. “The position of president of the empire’s highest academy is one that is bound to have many enemies.”

After listening to Shannon’s story, it seemed that the position of president of the academy was not an easy position.

After all, the position of a leader leading an organization is always fraught with challenges and risks.

“Since the president was not allowed to go out, I have effectively become his face. I told people that the president had left the academy for a while to do research. It’s been really hard since then. They started attacking the academy from all directions. Although Chancellor Bergen prevented it to some extent, it was difficult for him to openly take sides because the Academy was an independent institution. So the only solution was for the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation that the president was experiencing to go away.”

So, to sum up what Shannon said, the side effects of the elixir of rejuvenation caused many problems as the president was unable to engage in external activities, and I fixed those problems.

“So, Pathos is the president’s only benefactor in the world. “The benefactor who solved my biggest problem.”

“That’s why the president said that Mr. Pathos can come visit the president’s office at any time,” Shannon said with a smile.

Only after hearing Shannon’s answer did I realize what I had done.

Maybe my actions will have an impact on the main story?

But, there was nothing I could do right now.

If the story I knew changed because I corrected the president…….

‘He gives the heroines a lot of help and makes them stronger. That’s how we make the world safe!’

The conclusion was reached that in order to live a thin and long life, the only answer is to make the heroine strong.

But, at that time, I didn’t know.

Because of the decision I made on this day, I ended up living a life that was far from long and thin…….
