Succeeding as a Knight in a Gender-Reversal Game

Chapter 23

23 – First Day (3)

“Ahhh… It’s my waist. Even after last night’s mess, I’m still going to class… “

“There’s nothing we can do. Besides, today is less of a class and more of a way to tell us what to do next.”

In what looked like a large lecture hall at a modern university, I looked around while comforting Lena, who was complaining and patting her back.

I have never taken a class in such a large place in my entire life, so everything around me is amazing.

Devices of unknown purpose, and other students wearing uniforms like yesterday.

Every time I kept looking around, the girls in the center of my gaze were trying to pretend not to see me, but I could tell that everyone was paying attention to me sitting in the front seat.

I wonder if I sat in the front seat for no reason… In the past, Hannah said that it was always best to sit in the front when studying, so she just got up as quickly as possible and took the front seat.

It’s not a class with any content, but I think I just sat in the front and got more unnecessary attention… Tsk.

“Ah… it’s a shame. I can only see the back of my head… “If I had known this would happen, I would have taken a seat in the front.”

“Where can I even see the back of the head? I never knew I could be this happy just by looking at the back of a man’s head… “

“Do you want to come out early tomorrow? “If you show up early, you can see his face when you turn your head, and if you’re lucky, you can even hear his voice when he says hello.”

“Oh, are you a genius? I’m sure you were the runner-up for the written test. “He might be the chief.”

Almost half of what I heard to my sensitive ears was related to me.

Well, in their opinion, it would be no different from a boy suddenly entering a girls’ school… It’s understandable too.

Anyway, why do you keep telling me I’m the best in handwriting and all that? No matter how much I think about it, I can’t be a top note taker. There are more than ten answers that I couldn’t write down.

While I was thinking that, I also heard another story that did not involve me.

“Which professor will you take the elective course from? The southern part of the country where the front line is expanding the most? Otherwise, the eastern part seems like something is about to explode?”

“Well… I should also think about the western side, which offers a lot of money… “I don’t think it’s the North where you have to suffer.”

“I want to stay in the imperial capital, but that’s not something I can do as I want… Phew… “

I understand that the Imperial Knight Academy has some common subjects such as basic combat and dungeon practice, and you can choose to take the remaining three classes.

The game also allows the player to choose a class from the tutorial, allowing the player to choose their initial training however they want, and this works the same way.

However, after listening to it, it seemed that the students’ main interest was in the background of the professor of the subject, rather than the subject itself.

“West? Do you really have to go there? You can make a lot of money through trade with the New World, but… I heard that when you go there, you feel like a mercenary instead of a knight… “

“What do you think? In the end, it’s all about money. Besides, wouldn’t it be best if you could make money while putting your life at less risk? “After all, our ultimate goal is to have territory.”

Think a little more about the value judgments of characters in real life, which are different from those in games.

Is there some kind of contact between professors and students? Professors bring promising engineers to the areas where they are based, and students find stable places to work.

Perhaps this is why the Imperial Knight Academy is sponsored not only by the imperial family but also by other high-ranking nobles. It’s a good thing if the knights coming under you become of a higher level.

For those who cannot be ordained as knights directly from high-ranking families, the Imperial Knight Academy may be the highest gateway to becoming a knight. I guess it feels like S University, where our Park Hanna came from.

“John. Now that I think about it, what class will Yohan take? “It seems like you can take mom’s practical swordsmanship class starting in the second year, so I guess I’ll have to wait a little longer.”

“Umm… First, let’s listen to the class now and think about it. “The professor over there is also coming.”

-Drurrr!

No sooner had Lena asked me a question, a blue-haired professor opened the classroom door and caught my eye.

“Hey! Dear students, did you sleep well last night? Well, I guess I couldn’t sleep properly because I was busy wearing clothes. The seniors are probably sleeping in the slush after a night of drinking. Giggling… “

As soon as they came in, the students could not resist even after seeing the professor scratching their hearts.

If I can rebel against the professor even after being treated like that yesterday, then I’m really a bastard… No, it must be a woman.

“Okay. I like the look in your eyes a little bit now compared to yesterday. Professor Bon’s name is Evangeline Coster. “He is a senior professor among the professors in charge of first-year students, so it would be good to remember this well.”

A woman with a light yet serious feel dominates the audience and hands a wad of paper to those of us standing in front of her.

“Give the guys in the front seats to the b*tches in the back. It lists the subjects you can take in the future, so write your name on it later and submit it to the administrative department. “I’ll give you a brief explanation once everyone receives it.”

After passing the stack of paper to the back, I took a quick look at it and saw that the academy subjects I knew were written on it.

Then what I need now is magical power… In addition to this world’s common sense…

“Are you John? Our Lana senior cherishes and cares for us. And the kid next to you is Lena? Hey, if only her hair was a little shorter, she would look just like Lana when she was at the front line.”

While I was organizing my future plans in my head, the professor came up to me and spoke to me.

If it were any other subject, I would have just reacted appropriately and moved on, but looking at what he was saying, it seemed like he was an acquaintance of Aunt Lana’s, so it would be a bit hard to ignore him.

“Yes, that’s right. “Has something happened to Aunt Lana, or rather Professor Lana?”

“Uh, huh? Ah, hahahahaha! Nothing. “It’s just that you and Lena were former colleagues on the front line, and your story is famous!!”

How on earth did my story become famous? I know you didn’t tell the academy about my relationship with Aunt Lana…

Geomseong could have known the information when he came in, but how on earth did the professor in front of him know? I’ll have to look into it later.

“Okay, it’s just a greeting, so don’t worry too much about it. Oh, if you have any questions about the North in the future, feel free to come and ask! Both of them. Understand?”

“Yes, I understand. Thank you on behalf of her mother. “Professor Coster.”

“Wow, it gives me goosebumps hearing those words from a face that looks exactly like Lana-senpai, ahahahahaha!! “Please take care of both of us.”

The professor greeted us cheerfully and left the room, then started class.

It was a time to briefly present the necessary information, but since I had been working hard on the specs from the tutorial to begin with, I knew everything.

But since the amount was not small, everyone except me was busy writing down the professor’s words.

“Huh… Why are there so many? It’s difficult… What on earth should I do? So… “

“It’s not difficult. Among sword techniques, if you choose a class depending on the type of sword… “

“That’s why it’s difficult! I don’t know about Smart John, but kids like me feel like their heads will explode if they are told too many things at once… Ugh… ”

This is the first time in my life that I have heard that you have good hair. This is too much to say to a child who has never even taken the CSAT.

If it weren’t for the fact that I knew it in advance while playing the game and learned more about it in detail later while talking with Hanna, I think I would have been racking my brain like Lena right now.

Everyone is finishing class and not leaving their seats even though it is lunch time. Well, right now, choosing a class is important, not eating.

“Take your time, Lena. “Because you don’t have to feel burdened or anything like that.”

“Uuuh… Thanks Johan. I’ll try it as soon as possible… !”

While waiting for Lena, I was wondering what to do.

“Hey, you’re Johan, right?”

A woman with short brown hair whom I had never seen before approached me and spoke to me.

“Yes, that’s right. You?”

“My name is Majella Weiberg. “I came here to see you for a moment. Is that okay?”

Something to see? To me? Suddenly?

“What do you want to see? “What happened?”

“I briefly ran into Professor Coster in the administration office earlier, and he told me to call you because he had something to say.”

We didn’t talk about it in class earlier, but now separately… ?

I don’t want to advertise separately that I have a relationship with the professor, so it’s better for me to call him out on my own… What’s going on?

“Okay. I’ll go right away. “Where should I go?”

“You said it was a weapons warehouse near the administration office. “If it’s okay, may I guide you?”

It seems like it will still take time for Lena to choose her class… I guess we can go ahead and have a meal together.

“Lena. I’m going to see the professor for a moment. Even after it’s all over, I’ll be waiting here. Understand?”

“Ugh… Ah, should I listen to this or not… Ugh… “

Although she recommended a few classes, Lena seems to have a lot of concerns of her own. She continues to hold her head from before.

“Then let’s go quickly. “I’m sorry for wasting your time.”

“No. If you can get the professor’s attention with something small like this, that’s good. Moreover, it is an opportunity to become friends with the academy’s only male student and the top student in the written exam.”

The guide, a female student named Majella, had a brighter mood than I expected and she was a good friend with words, so the route was quite interesting.

“It looks like Majella has heard a lot of information from various places.”

“I am the daughter of a slightly larger company. I have more experience traveling around the continent than others. Ha ha ha ha ha.”

As I talked to her, who knew a lot about her various materials, I quickly arrived at her warehouse.

“Okay, now let’s go in. “I can’t wait to see what happens.”

-Kkii Iik…

As soon as the door opens, Majella pushes my back and lets me in.

And inside the warehouse

“…Mazella?”

“Huh?”

“Why are there other kids and not a professor?”

Not to mention the professor from earlier, there were five or six women I had never seen before, sitting on items around them.

… Just in case, how could a bad prediction be wrong?
