I Got a Fake Job at the Academy

C208: Guest (1)

‘Finally!’

James Moriarty became a full professor.

Casey Selmore’s eyes lit up the moment she saw the historic scene. Her heart was pounding in anticipation that James Moriarty’s life would finally begin in earnest.

‘I can finally see what he’s trying to do.’

She decided not to miss a single move this time but just as she thought so Casey realized that her body was being dragged away strongly by something.

‘What?’

A question passed through her head at that moment. Come to think of it, how long has she been staying in his memory?

“Wait a minute!”

Casey shouted urgently, but it didn’t work.

Unable to read all the memories contained in the magic, she was kicked out of the flow of memories.

‘It’s only just the beginning!’

For a moment her consciousness was in the dark and when her eyes opened, Casey Selmore leapt from her bed. Looking around, she saw that it was a deep dawn and the sun had not yet risen.

‘The artifact?’

The paper in hand lost its blue light and was discolored.

‘The end? This is the end?’

She thought she could barely trace him.

“Ah! So annoying!”

When she couldn’t contain her anger and screamed, Betty’s cry came from the living room.

“Casey! What time is it? Be quiet!”

“Delica Kingdom.”

Back in his private quarters, Rudger recalled memories from three years ago.

He earned the title of godfather of crime as James Moriarty, but in fact, everything he did was more like spreading what had originally happened.

‘There were a lot of hidden secret facilities in the Delica Kingdom.’

Preparations for war at the national level and all the inhumane experiments done for it.

Steel Chapel was just a part of it and there were a few more unknown secret operations.

One of them was the development of gunpowder that was not affected by magic.

He thought the factory that used to make the gunpowder burned down but as he expected there was a separate person who made it.

‘Victor Dreadful developed the gunpowder.’

He looked up at the night sky outside the window as the bluish moonlight was giving off a strange warm light. Thanks to this, he could organize his thoughts calmly.

‘Liquid Golem is a high-performance automaton. Considering the person who made it, it is not impossible to make gunpowder that is not affected by magic.’

And in order to use it to make sure it worked, they contacted the Liberation Army and handed it over to them.

People will only be interested in the Liberation Army who carried out the bombing, and they will not know what is behind it.

‘I have eliminated the secret branches in Leathervelk and Baltanung, but they won’t disappear completely unless I remove the fundamental buds.’

It was regrettable that Victor Dreadful could not be killed but he couldn’t help it if he thought about it rationally.

He didn’t expect another First Order.

‘But thanks to that I found out information about another First Order. Black Knight Verom is a First Order and he uses an antique tone and a red-blooded sword.’

As a result, there are three First Orders that are unknown.

What ability and strength do the other three have?

And what is the power of Zero Order that brought them all together…….?

Rudger glanced at the ring handed over by Zero Order. Now that he thought about it, it was strange that he gave him this ring.

‘He gave it to me on purpose. To invite me.’

Zero Order was akin to the president. In a good way, it’s bold, and in a bad way, it’s a crazy person.

‘Well, he wouldn’t be able to do this if he was in his right mind.’

How will the next meeting with him go?

Thinking so, Rudger closed his eyes in a chair and fell asleep quietly.

* * *

The next morning Rudger, who came to work early even though there was no class, found Sedina cleaning his office.

“Sir.”

Rudger checked his watch. It wasn’t time for breakfast yet.

“Sedina, you came to work early.”

“Yes. I’m working hard not to disturb you when you start the day.”

“Did you eat?”

“Not yet but it’s okay. I brought a lunch box!”

Sedina said that and showed her packed lunch. When she opened the lid, the inside was filled with fresh blue vegetables and fruits.

“……there’s a lot of grass.”

“Yes, it’s good for my health and I like it. Oh, by the way. Did you eat?”

“No, I haven’t.”

Rudger always ate breakfast separately. The lunch was mainly eaten with the other teachers, but even that has become rare since the festival.

“For now, I’m going to eat breakfast in moderation.”

With that said, Rudger took out a large barrel that he had prepared. Inside, there was powder made by grinding all kinds of grains and herbs.

It was a processed food called magic wheat eaten by wizards.

Sedina asked in a trembling voice.

“Are you going to eat only that?”

“Yes, does that matter?”

“Of course there is a problem!”

When Sedina screamed, Rudger flinched without realizing it.

After he seriously wondered if he had pressed the wrong switch, Sedina strode up and took away the magic wheat in Rudger’s hand.

“Isn’t this magic wheat that wizards often eat because they can’t eat a real meal?”

“……Yes, I tend to use it, too.”

“It definitely fills the body and makes meals easy but unequal nutrients will ruin the body.”

“Uh, well, yes.”

“I’ll give you my packed lunch box, so eat it all!”

“Isn’t this your breakfast?”

“That’s all right! I have one more prepared!”

As she said that she took out another lunch box.

Due to her unexpected thorough preparation, Rudger was stunned and could not find a cause to refuse.

“Teacher, you must eat vegetables! These ground-up snacks will one day become the main culprit of body damage!”

Sedina’s determined speech that sounded as if she was a mother preaching to a child complaining of side dishes had some strange power.

“From now on, I’ll pack your food every morning and evening!”

“……No, you don’t have to go that far.”

“No! This is necessary.”

“I’m afraid you’ll have a hard time.”

“I’m not tired at all. This is what I want to do.”

“If you are so stubborn, I won’t stop you.”

Rudger eventually gave up and nodded.

“Then, have this.”

A lunch box thrust out of the blue. Rudger was sure that it was filled with grass (fruits and vegetables).

“Is there no meat?”

“Nothing!”

“……None?”

Rudger stared at Sedina with a shocked face.

Can a person live without meat? Or were the Half-Elves a meatless race?

‘Looking at Belaruna that’s not necessarily the case.’

Belaruna was a huge meat eater although she was a pure elf. However, it is absurd that Sedina, a half-elf, does not eat meat.

“How do you supplement nutrients without meat?”

“This lunch box I prepared contains all the essential nutrients. This plant here has vegetable protein, so it’s good to eat, and if you look at this fruit, it’s high in fructose and carbohydrates.….”

She was so happy that she told him everything even though Rudger didn’t ask and when he heard it all, he realized that the nutrients were unexpectedly balanced.

“No, I know it has all the nutrients.”

But isn’t it good to have meat?

Rudger wanted to argue, but he decided not to when he saw Sedina’s gaze.

He really thought she’d get angry if he said anything.

Sedina is usually calm and courteous but when she is fixed on something there’s no stopping her. Even Rudger felt strangely pressured by the tremendous spirit that she showed at the moment.

‘Did I ever feel this pressure from someone other than my teacher?’

There were Zero Order and Elisa Willow. Of course, these two have the power to match it.

He didn’t know Sedina had this side to her.

“Are you not going to eat it?”

As Sedina’s voice became anxious and her eyes began to sharpen, Rudger replied hastily.

“No, I’ll eat it.”

Sedina sat in a chair and watched him eat.

‘That’s weird. She’s an assistant and I’m a teacher.’

What was this feeling that the relationship has turned around?

Rudger, who was eating like that, suddenly remembered the past.

“………What’s wrong? Is there anything you don’t like about the meal?”

“No, it tastes good. It’s better than I thought.”

Sedina blushed and smiled brightly at his compliment.

“But why…?”

“It just reminded me of the old days.”

“Ah, if it’s your old days…….”

“Not what you think but a long time ago when I was walking around with my teacher.”

When she heard about his teacher, Sedina’s eyes shined.

“Are you talking about your teacher? Who was it?”

“My teacher is someone so great that I had no choice but to call him a monster. I don’t dare to say that I touched the toes of my master when it comes to magic skills.”

“What?”

Sedina cried in surprise.

Rudger’s magic skills are at a level where no one in Theon is arguing and Sedina could tell he was not humble to lift up his teacher.

Even considering all that, Rudger sincerely thought that his skills were not even close to his teacher.

“In a way, I was very lucky that someone like him taught me. Anyway, it was similar to how it was when I was with him.”

“What do you mean you’re similar?”

“He always forced me to eat meals. However, if I were to point out the difference from you, would it be that he told him to eat a lot of meat.”

“Meat…”

Sedina whispered.

“Well, I don’t hate meat either, so I eat it often, but……My teacher likes to eat meat strangely undercooked. When I ate it, I struggled with the fishy taste.”

Rudger’s words were light but it was completely unacceptable for Sedina.

“In the world, you can take all the nutrients evenly with just vegetables, but meat that is extremely tilted on one side! This is unacceptable!”

“It’s a thing of the past.”

“Of course, I don’t mean to blame it either. However…I have a feeling that it will not fit in with your teacher.”

Rudger nodded his head because he was strangely convinced by her words.

‘No. Considering teacher personality, I’m not sure about that either.’

He was so unpredictable that it was meaningless for me to dare to speculate on his behavior. In other words, they might get along with each other.

‘More than that, I’m sure teacher just woke up.’

On the last day of the magic festival Rudger used his teacher’s blood, one of the means he wouldn’t use unless it was really necessary.

There was a reason why Rudger didn’t use it before.

‘The moment I used it, teacher realized that I used his blood and would come to find me.’

It was inevitable no matter how much Rudger shakes when he thinks about what will happen after that.

‘Considering his unruly personality, he will not come here right away, but will look around first. Still, I’m sure he will arrive in front of me someday.’

That would be a real problem since he was the one who extracted his teacher’s blood when he was asleep and ran away.

Just thinking about what would happen if they met made his back wet.

‘Maybe he’ll come right away.….’

As he was thinking someone knocked on the door.

“Who is it?”

It was a Theon’s employee.

“What’s going on?”

“There is someone who wants to see Mr. Rudger.”

“What…?”

Rudger’s heart sank.
