Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me

26 – Relay Dalian – Interlude

“Deneb, Cornette, Joseph. The three of you, come over here for a moment.”

As soon as I was about to go home after class, Professor Perkin called me and several other male students.

I was wondering if there was anything else I wanted to say, so I followed the call and he started talking about something unexpected.

“How many credits do each of you take?”

Credit is a term referring to the number of lecture hours, and if you take about 15 credits, you can see that you are taking five lectures.

I was taking a total of five subjects, including basic combat classes and basic magic classes, as well as liberal arts classes.

That means you are taking a total of 15 credits, which is usually the average for your freshman year at Denbergen Academy.

“It is 15 credits.”

“I also have 15 credits.”

“It’s 15 credits.”

It turns out that all three students have 15 credits, with Joseph as the last, who never forgets his dignified tone anytime, anywhere.

Professor Perkin stroked his chin with his feathery wing and gently closed his eyes, then he nodded his understanding.

“Guys, don’t you want to take an extra special class?”

“A special class?”

Cornet and Joseph were quite surprised, but Justina and Charlotte, who were eavesdropping a few steps behind me, were also surprised, wondering what we were talking about.

“Yes, special classes. It will be busy as 3 credits are added from 15 credits to 18 credits, but I believe it will definitely help.”

“Uh… Are you okay according to the rules?”

“Of course. Every year, the professor in charge of the basic combat class and the basic magic class each has the authority to recommend three students to the special class.”

If you say this far, it is natural to wonder what the special class is all about.

Perkin, perhaps noticing the students’ curiosity, immediately gave a brief explanation of what was taught in the special class.

“The special class… You can think of it as a real-life practice, for example.”

“Rehearsal?”

“Yes. Although this is an academy, you must have come to know today that there is a huge difference in skills even among freshmen. Just because you’re in the same first year doesn’t mean you can’t all have the same skills.”

Cornet and Joseph, as well as Charlotte, nodded and looked at me.

Well, during today’s sparring, he kept running around like a wild boar with overflowing stamina, so he must have been deeply imprinted in everyone’s heads.

Even Joseph and Cornette, who were chosen as students in the special class along with me, had a record of losing to me, so it was only natural that I stood out more.

“Well, it’s long, so to speak. Even if they don’t teach hard, they try to push the guys who are really good at school. You have to understand it like this.”

“Oh… ….”

“Damn it, Darnay, Professor of Basic Magic, might have said it more succinctly. I don’t have a horse Anyway, Darnay will also pick three from the magic side, so a total of six will be in one class.”

Perkin seemed to notice, and added a few words to it.

“Other students may feel unfair, but isn’t the world like this? From the school’s point of view, those who do well should be pushed from behind and those who do poorly should be pulled from the front.”

There seemed to be a reason why we were left alone.

Although he was old enough, he was a Perkin who only cared about teaching students rather than the circumstances of adults.

In contrast to his overly large size and harsh tone, he was a teacher who secretly cherished his students.

“So, all three of you have no complaints, right? It’s a letter of recommendation from Professor Bonn, so don’t think about rejecting it, just accept it.”

“Of course!”

“Hmm, it’s a real battle. It will be fun indeed.”

“But is the professor in your class also Professor Perkin?”

In the midst of the excitement of Cornet and Joseph, I raised my hand.

Listening to the story, it seems that 3 people are selected from the basic combat class and 3 people from the basic magic class.

Then each person has different specialties and different talents, but what kind of teacher can teach such diverse geniuses?

Professor Perkin, at least in my opinion, thought that would be impossible.

‘First of all, I’m a stranger to magic, no matter how you look at it.’

It was like that just because I didn’t notice that Justina was casting protection-type magic on me right away.

Of course, Justina wasn’t an ordinary wizard, and she was a dragon, so she might have used her hand unnoticed.

Even taking that into consideration, it seemed that Professor Perkin had no ability to teach non-combat students under the name of actual combat.

“Aha, of course not me. A great person is coming. I haven’t heard closely, but I heard it was an outside invitation.”

“An outside invitation?”

The moment the word invitation came out, I saw Justina’s expression slightly frown.

Since you’re the chairman, you should have known that before. Is there a problem?

But I couldn’t just run over and ask, so I continued to listen to Professor Perkin.

“Originally, the special class was held by one excellent professor every year, but this time they decided to invite it from outside. I can’t even hear the name, stop.”

With those words, Professor Perkin left.

Under the already darkening sky, the five students who were still at the training ground slowly walked back to the dormitory.

I was familiar with Joseph, Charlotte, and Justina, but the atmosphere was a little awkward because there were also cornets that I wasn’t very close with.

But as if not caring about that, Charlotte clung straight to me with her weeping eyes.

“Boss, are you leaving for a place where I am not….”

“No, what do you mean, Charlotte?”

Whoever saw it would think the two of us were dating, the joking words went up to her throat, but when she saw Justina’s eyes, she put them back together.

“So much, Charlotte, you will be coming anyway. Even in the magic class, they pick three people.”

“Can I get in there….”

“Of course not. From my point of view, you are unconditionally confirmed, and Yuzu too…….”

“Hmph, I don’t care about that kind of special treatment. Even taking five classes is annoying to death.”

“What are you listening to five?”

I didn’t even have to ask.

As I expected, Justina was taking the same classes as me from one to five.

It was the same with Charlotte, but at least Cornet and Joseph were different.

“Cha, what a coincidence!”

“Sure.”

“Isn’t it possible that you copied her original daughter?”

“It can’t be.”

When Charlotte was removed, it was Justina this time.

She was actually several times tougher opponent than Charlotte.

Because she accidentally stepped on the dark shadow step at the end of the sparring, she had been watching Justina since the end of her class.

“…… By the way, Deneb.”

“Huh?”

Just then, Justina looked at me with a meaningful look.

As if she had something to say.

Now, it’s not once or twice that I’ve seen him with those eyes, and he seemed to know what he was trying to say just by looking at his eyes.

As I was nervous because I thought something had come, the voice I heard was not Justina’s, but Joseph’s.

“Oops! Then I remembered!”

“What, all of a sudden.”

Stunned by Joseph’s exclamation, Cornet straightened his back and glared at Joseph with an annoyed gaze.

However, as always, Joseph continued what he had to say, not paying attention to others.

“A guest professor. I heard something from my sister about this!”

“Sister? If you’re a sister, are you talking about the princess? But how does he know the professor invited to this year’s special class?”

“That’s because the guest professor is a knight belonging to the imperial family!”

“What?”

I tilted my head and looked at Justina. She is

Although she is disguised as a student for the time being, she is the only one who works as the director of Den Bergen Academy.

She knew that if the professor was invited from outside, she would know who it was, and Justina would also know.

“…… Come to think of it, I think I heard it from her mother too. She said that she invited a major member of the imperial family to the academy as a professor.”

“Whoa, whoa… A member of the imperial family is at the academy….”

“So Charlotte, is that guy in front of you right now also a prince?”

Charlotte always has a lot of reactions, and even the cornet who seems calm but listens to the side story.

Everyone was listening to the story of Justina and Joseph.

It was Justina who spoke a few words faster than Joseph.

“I know that much, but I don’t know much more. As you might have guessed roughly, Denbergen Academy is receiving a lot of help from the imperial family.”

“What do you mean?”

“That means that the relationship between precedence and succession is a bit wrong. The academy didn’t invite you, but the imperial family put that person in the academy.”

It was then that I understood why Justina’s expression was not good.

Denbergen Academy is Justina’s school, where Justina is the representative.

However, the dragon’s gold was not infinite enough to wear out even after 500 years, and since it was an educational project conducted in the empire’s territory, the imperial family had to pay attention.

500 Years ago, it was possible for a small country to be destroyed by a single dragon, but the empire today is not so easy.

‘The imperial family interfered with the authority to appoint professors.’

If it had happened that way, I would certainly have felt bad about it.

Not even the chairman of the board knows the professor who will be in charge of the special class, which occupies a fairly important position in the academy.

Even though most of the duties were handled by Principal Zerniel, not Justina, this was clearly due to severe interference from the imperial family.

“mmm… ….”

Perhaps because of that, Justina glared hard at Joseph, but unfortunately, her annoyed gaze did not reach Joseph, who was turning her back.

“Well, I don’t know more than Yuzu-san! I just heard that the new professor is your old friend and an excellent knight of the imperial family.”

“If you are an old friend of your sister, then you are quite old.”

“I don’t know that much. Alas, no. Come to think of it, maybe my age… It’s not, but the age seems to be considerable.”

Joseph quickly corrects his words and respects the new professor.

I quickly asked a question before Joseph’s mouth closed.

“What is your name? An imperial knight might be a famous person.”

Deneb pondered for a while, then frowned at him.

“Oops, I can’t remember the name. Probably not a famous article. Still, given that my sister highly praised it, it must be an article that is not famous outside, but has good reviews inside.”

“What, then you won’t know anything after all.”

“Ah, but there was one unique thing.”

Joseph grinned and poked the air with his finger.

“I heard you are an elf, not a human.”

“Elf?”

“…… Really?”

Everyone was surprised, but Justina reacted the most violently.

Now, after 500 years, elves have become a rarer race than they were in my previous life.

But that same elf came as our professor.

The rest of the students had this level of appreciation at best, but Justina had her blue eyes wide open and her lips slightly bitten.

“Yeah, did I tell you? Age is significant. Ha ha ha! It was a kind of foreshadowing! How was it?”

From noble mtl dot com

With Josef laughing behind his back, everyone else only sighed, saying they had no information other than the elves.

But among them, Justina had a different reaction.

“At this point, why, of course…… Ugh…… !!”

“Yuz?”

“Let’s go first! See you next time! Especially Deneb! I have something to tell you when I see you later!”

In the meantime, Justina says her goodbyes carefully.

Looking at Justina’s back, I shuddered at her uneasiness not knowing what would happen next.
