Chapter 45. Please, in my next life, I hope to be reborn as a harmless bug

“Tail!”

I heard a distant laughing voice.

The familiar purple hair scattered in front of my eyes.

The bright red eyes were full of warmth.

“Tail! What are you doing! Come fast!”

This girl with cute bent eyes….

‘Cecilia.’

Yes. That’s right. It was Cecilia.

Tail took this situation for granted.

Cecilia smiled broadly and took her hand and dragged it.

“You were supposed to go to the mountain today.”

Ah. Was it

She burst out laughing again.

“Are you a tail fool? You forgot my promise.”

Her red lips pouted out.

I instinctively reached out my hand to comfort her.

Cecilia dodged slightly behind her and let out a bright smile.

“Tail! If you’re going to catch it, catch it!”

We ran and ran through the mountains.

But strangely, I didn’t get out of breath, and I didn’t feel tired.

Is that why?

Cecilia and herself quickly reached the top of the mountain.

Pure white lights bloomed in the dark, creating a very beautiful sight.

As I stared blankly at the unfolding night view, Cecilia quietly called Tail.

“Tail.”

Her tail looked at her.

“I will keep my promise.”

Her red eyes stared at him.

“Sure.”

Her eyes were strangely filled with sadness.

Cecilia’s hand slowly moved toward Tail’s cheek.

“Don’t forget me.”

It was as soon as Cecilia had finished speaking.

“Tail!”

A strong voice came from the air.

It was a familiar voice.

In that moment, at the same time, Cecilia became more and more transparent.

Her panicked, he opened her hand to catch her, but he kept slipping out of her grip.

‘No way!’

Even as he disappeared, Cecilia was smiling at him.

You seem really happy.

“Wake up! Tail!”

The moment he heard the voice once more, Tails opened his eyes.

“Heo Eok. Huh.”

Dream.

It was a dream.

Her whole body was wet with cold sweat.

Yujin, who had finished her preparations, was looking at him with a worried expression.

“Did you have a nightmare?”

“Ah…. Huh.”

Behind Eugene, Ricky, who was perfectly set up, blinked his eyes.

“Tail. Are you okay?”

Tale smiled lightly as he seemed to be worried about even Ricky.

“It’s okay.”

It will be fine.

For some reason, Tail clenched his fists.

* * *

Tail went straight to his class.

I was not in a good mood, perhaps because my dream was disturbed.

When I opened the door, I saw a classroom divided into nobles and commoners.

Still, the atmosphere in the classroom wasn’t as cold as it was yesterday, but there was definitely a sense of distance.

Tale passed between them and sat by the window where he had sat the previous day.

Alice was already sitting next to him.

“Good morning.”

“Yes.”

Alice, who answered briefly, twisted her hair slightly, and as if she was determined, she said to him.

“Over there. We….”

Her mouth moved and she spat out words with difficulty.

“… Make it easy.”

There was a fear of rejection in her blue eyes.

She’s cute when she speaks with her fists clenched. Her tail bursts into her foot laugh.

It felt like a layer of melancholy was peeling off.

“Okay. No good.”

Then they heard the sound of a chair being dragged behind them.

Drreuk.

At the same time, a refreshing voice was heard.

“Then can I be included in that ‘we’?”

It was Ethan.

Making eye contact with Tail, he smiled.

As expected, he was a pretty boy, so when he smiled, the surroundings seemed to have become a flower garden.

I could see the female students around him glancing at him with blushing cheeks.

Alice looked at him like that and answered firmly.

It was completely different from what he did to Tail.

“I will do that.”

Ethan’s face brightened at once, as if he was more pleased with Alice’s actions than with Alice’s actions.

“Then I’ll talk to Mr. Tail.”

Twinkle, twinkle.

His eyes shone like jewels.

It was really burdensome.

‘Let’s just quickly give permission and end the conversation.’

Thought so, Tail answered.

“… Okay.”

“Wow! Thanks-!”

That was before he finished his sentence.

Deng Deng Deng-.

The bell rang and the front door opened at the same time without an error.

A man with long, light green hair tied into a ponytail walked in.

It was Jade Pennell, the homeroom professor of Class 1 of Year 1.

“Hmm. Are you all here? I hope you won’t make me bother to call attendance.”

After saying that, Jade continued slowly.

“Please refer to the timetable for the first semester. From the second year, the major is decided, and you can take only the classes you want by registering for classes.”

Having said that, Jade cleared his throat and continued his explanation.

“Ah. And the timetable for the first semester of the first year will be handed over later after class.”

Then, the corner of Jade’s mouth went up slightly.

“Today’s first lesson is an introduction to Mana Studies that I teach.”

The students nodded at his words.

Jade stood in front of the blackboard hanging behind her back.

“In Introduction to Mana Studies, textbooks are not required. So it will be boring, but I hope you pay attention to my words.”

His eyes narrowed.

The students all shut up and listened to him.

Jade stood up as if to start a full-scale class.

“First, mana is divided into elemental mana and non-elemental mana.”

He wrote ‘attribute mana’ and ‘non-attribute mana’ on the blackboard.

“Attribute mana has the ability to change so-called own mana into specific elemental mana.”

“In other words, if you have elemental mana, you can easily become an elemental mage, or you can give your weapon elemental properties.”

He continued slowly.

“For example, Cecilia from the Marquis of Duvir, the pride of our academy, is a fire wizard who handles the element of fire.”

Cecilia.

At those words, Tail’s expression hardened slightly.

It seemed that the dream could be seen again.

It felt like I was shaking my head for no reason.

In the meantime, Jade continued her explanation.

“That doesn’t mean you can’t be a wizard or a swordsman who handles mana, though.”

From noble mtl dot com.

“If you deal with non-attribute mana, you can’t use elemental magic, but you can teleport or fly, and even mind-type magic such as hallucinations or hypnosis. Anything except elemental magic is possible.”

“The same goes for prosecutors. Just by adding neutral mana to a weapon, that weapon will become stronger on a different level.”

Jade looked at the students slowly.

He chuckled.

“The closest example is Chloe, the princess of the Empire, who is a representative swordsman who uses non-attribute mana.”

Chloe.

It was a name I haven’t heard in a long time.

‘You’ve chosen a sword.’

Before thinking about the name and thinking about it, Jade continued.

“Everyone knows about mana, but it is good to develop a mana hole and learn a technique that suits you.”

Jade smiled and said to the students.

“For that purpose, next time, we will have time to check whether we have elemental mana or non-elemental mana.”

Jade took a breath and asked.

“Do you have any questions?”

It was then.

A student in front of Kromhell raised his hand.

At a glance, he looked like a small child on Kromhell’s side.

Tail felt ominous at the same time.

‘Ah, I think I’m talking nonsense.’

While Tail thought so, Jade called the student by name.

“Yes. Matthew Beria. Let me tell you.”

At Jade’s words, Matthew said in a voice mixed with laughter.

“Can commoners also develop mana holes?”

He giggled and looked at Tails.

It was an expression of disgust as if looking at an insect.

“I think there are a lot of students who haven’t developed it.”

At the same time, the nobles around Kromhel burst into laughter.

This wasn’t just about Tails.

Most of the commoners haven’t developed mana holes.

To be precise, I couldn’t do it because there was no teacher to teach it.

But the commoners bowed their heads in shame.

‘Crazy.’

Tail found a laugh.

Perhaps that guy did it because he wanted to give the commoners a side anyway.

‘It’s not a particularly good way.’

That would be the case too.

‘Because Professor Jade’s expression is very bad.’

Certainly, his expression was completely rotten.

“Ha ha.”

Jade ran a rough run through his hair.

“Now…. Are you insulting me in class?”

His narrow eyes opened slightly.

At the same time, the temperature of the half atmosphere dropped.

A cold aura like frost was directed at Matthew.

“Matthew Beria? Please tell me.”

“Yes? I’m not that….”

Matthew was taken aback by the professor’s wrath.

He only wanted to dampen the commoners’ spirit, so he did as Krom Hell told him to do.

I didn’t expect to get this much anger.

Okay or not, Jade glared at Matthew.

“Nowhere in my class did I divide commoners and nobles. Where did you see that you said that? Are you violating the school rule that all students in the academy are equal?”

Jade’s dark green eyes overflowed with life.

“You will have to explain it properly.”

His energy was sharp and ferocious.

It was unbelievable that he was only looking at documents all day, so clean mana.

Looking at that, Tail clicked his tongue.

‘That’s why I can’t mess with the narrow-eyed.’

Because most of them are narrow-eyed.

Tale quietly prayed for Matthew to rest.

Please, in my next life, I hope to be reborn as a harmless insect.
