I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

161.I Have Work to Do (Complete)

“John, shall we go back a little?”

At Karina’s her words her her her, I looked down at her.

All you had to look at to see was the veil, but for some reason, it seemed like her face underneath the veil she had a playful smile on it.

By the way, why did you make this suggestion today?

Because the weather is nice?

The weather was nice today. The wind was cool, and the seminarians, except Karina, were mobilized to prepare for the Feast of Saint Sabrina, so there was no attention that they usually felt. It was a situation where Karina could have asked me to go back.

“Sure.”

The wheelchair that was going straight to Yeomyeong Hall was turned 90 degrees. While I was taking a walk, I was thinking of climbing the outer wall and going around. It was easier to go around the outer wall rather than going back and forth. Another big advantage was that there was no need to worry about getting lost along the way.

“This is my first time taking a walk along the outer wall.”

“This is my first time too.”

I walked around here and there with Karina, but I had never moved along the outer wall. Because there was no need to go back. It was our daily routine to get back to Yeomyeonggwan as quickly as possible when it was time to return.

Because Karina was really burdened by people’s attention.

I often returned home quickly to Yeomyeonggwan in order to escape from people’s gaze. Except for special days like today. The whole time I was pulling the wheelchair, Karina was talking to me in a more excited voice than usual.

“Has John ever seen a festival?”

“Festival… La. As you know, I was trapped on a deserted island for 10 years. “I don’t remember anything.”

“Oh…I’m sorry.”

“Don’t worry too much. Isn’t this or that going to happen in life? “I’m also looking forward to this festival.”

Our pink saint seemed to appreciate my sincerity in attempting an emergency fire extinguishing operation before the atmosphere was destroyed, and she waved her veil with an elegant laugh.

“Hehe. Despite his scary face, John seems to be very considerate.”

“Isn’t it normal?”

Isn’t that worthy of praise? It’s normal for someone to try to fix things somehow when the atmosphere is about to go downhill. In that respect, I could say that I belong to the average axis.

“Well… Hehe. “When you observe people, you see a lot of people who have good-looking faces but don’t.”

“Is it… “

I guess it’s because I often encounter high-ranking people while working as a saint. I listened more closely to Karina’s words. Because it wasn’t normal for Karina to gossip about others.

To an ordinary person, gossiping behind someone’s back would be considered an ordinary thing, but Karina was the only saint on this continent.

“Royals who roughly push a passer-by who blocks their path because they are nobles, beat them for being in their way, or talk about etiquette but are rude to their subordinates… In reality, there are no such kind people when they stand in front of me.

When I see you being polite, with guns in your eyes, and acting like you are the righteous person in the world, I wonder if I became a saint just for this.

Every time I saw people like that, I felt sick to my stomach, so I only kept Lennie by my side until I met Johan.

At least Lenny was honest with me.”

If it’s Karina Baraghi Lenny, she deserves it. On the other hand, she also feels overly obsessed with the master-slave relationship.

“You had a lot of trouble.”

“Hehe. Thank you “This is the first time I’ve been confident in someone so openly.”

“I won’t tell anyone even if there’s a knife to my throat, so tell me as much as you want. Even if you curse at Kalon, I will listen to you.”

They won’t give me a penalty for swearing. I don’t think he’s that petty. Probably.

“Hehe, you’re being mischievous.”

Karina seemed to find my words funny and laughed and lowered her head. She wasn’t trying to be funny, but it seems like there was something that stuck in Karina’s mind.

With her confused mind, she looks up at the sky. The sky where the sunset was set was colored orange, but that scarlet color was gradually disappearing as it was consumed by pitch black. It will be dark by the time we arrive at Yeomyeonggwan.

“It’s already so late. Normally, it would already be time to enter Yeomyeonggwan…”

“The weather is cold, so why not go in early?”

“Is that so?”

The weather is getting colder, so I might catch a cold on the way. I picked up Lue, which was hanging on her waist, and placed it on Karina’s lap her her.

“If you’re cold, at least hug Lue.”

“Lue?”

[Contractor? I’m not a portable blanket or anything!]

“Let me stop Millia from taking her for a walk for once.”

[Tch. Just this time.]

Was it that she didn’t want to go for a walk? I burst out laughing when I saw Lue calmly held in Karina’s arms while taking a walk.

“Milia is probably the only one who wants to take the grimoire for a walk.”

“…I can’t deny it.”

In the first place, is there any other grimoire other than Rue where you can take a walk? I’ve never seen a magic book that can act autonomously even in a game.

We headed to the Ryeomyeong Pavilion, talking about Lue that went beyond her common sense.

—————

“There is only one week left until the Feast of Saint Sabrina.”

“What was the alchemy department supposed to do?”

“We decided to hold an alchemy demonstration and a fun potion-making event.”

What is a fun potion making event? All I can think of is ominous predictions. Viola, who was fiddling with her prosthetic hand her, kindly informed me of the event in response to my question.

“We give them ingredients to mix this and that and let them make it. Since it is done using only safe ingredients, it is not dangerous and you can experience alchemy!

If you do well, you may find a sprout worthy of joining the alchemy department, so this is a must-hold event! “Dean Gereon strongly insisted.”

“You’re working hard to recruit talent.”

“The alchemy department is less popular than other departments. Because experiments are dangerous, injuries occur frequently, and noble ladies never want to harm themselves.

As a result, only men come in, and honestly, the boys also want to become knights or wizards, so they don’t often enter the alchemy department…Only the alchemy masters and the second or third sons of nobles come in.

“As long as I graduated well, the income is not bad.”

“The alchemy department also had similar difficulties. “

“Well, everyone in the world has one or two problems. “It’s like that for us too.”

“I see.”

“So, are you worried about anything? Although he always solved our concerns, he never actually said anything that was bothering us. I’m a bit curious-“

“Not all.”

“Really?”

But I can’t speak. Firstly, the status window was strangely silent, secondly, I couldn’t figure out what the content of the true ending DLC was, and I was thinking about three things at the same time: how to quietly end the incident that would occur on St. Sabrina’s Day. Br﹥

Since I can’t be honest, I have no choice but to voice my concerns.

“Because Lenny has too much work to do. “I’m worried that I might collapse again.”

It was the first worry that came to my mind.

“If it’s Lenny… That escort driver?”

“That’s right.”

Oh, by the way, have I seen this before? Lennie must have been out of her office working. Anyway, Viola nodded with a knowing look on her face.

“You looked very tired when I saw you before…But, you and Sir Lennie are the only escorts for the saintess?”

“Yes.”

“Because she is a saint, I thought she would have a lot of guard knights … But why are there only two?”

“Whatever escort knights there were, all died in a shipwreck… And there has been no replacement since.”

At my words, Viola looked at me with an expression like, ‘There is an easy solution, so why don’t you use it?’

“Can’t I just pick one from among the Holy Knights?”

“That’s it…”

I explained the whole story to Viola, who was curious. Viola nodded her head as if she understood the entire journey from Lorelai to the Academy.

“So, you two are acting as escorts… But for administrative work, shouldn’t you just call the seminarians and have them do it? “Elisha also works here, right?”

“What?”

“If you just shout to the seminarians, ‘Is there anyone who is faithful to help the saint?’, There will be a lot of people who will flock to do it.”

…That’s what I heard?

But it was something I couldn’t just accept.

“I don’t know if those fanatics will do a good job. And by now they must be busy preparing for the Feast of Saint Sabrina.”

“Are holidays important? Are saints important? “I think if I tell you once, they’ll come running right away.”

“…I’m scared that it really seems like that.”

“Right?”

Viola burst out laughing as if she remembered the image of the seminarian in agony. But it is not without problems.

“Karina doesn’t really like guys who make a fuss.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay for you to make education more rigorous?”

Hmm…There’s nothing bad about it from my point of view. Even if there is a cult hiding among the seminarians, just brainwash them with Rue and make them spit out all of her information.

It really wasn’t a bad idea.

“Thanks. Viola.”

“Uh, ah, no… Considering the favor I received from you, this is nothing…”

Viola scratched her cheek and averted her gaze, probably embarrassed by my praise. She was a bit shy, but if you look at her like that, she was like a girl of that age.

“…Anyway! That’s my opinion! Let’s get back to work!”

“Yes.”

“Don’t laugh!”

“Okay, okay.”

Then, let’s get back to work.

I turned my gaze away from Viola, whose face was as red as a tomato, and started working on finishing the prototype of the product I was currently working on.

In my head, I was refining the ‘plan to enslave seminarians’ proposed by Viola.
