The Academy’s Undercover Professor – 208



◈ Episode 208: Guest’s visit (1)

‘at las!’

James Moriarty became a full professor.

The moment Casey Selmore saw that historic(?) scene his eyes lit up.

My heart pounded with anticipation that the full-fledged biography of James Moriarty would finally begin.

‘I can see what this guy is trying to do.’

This time I will not miss a single action.

I was just about to think that.

Casey realized that his body was being pulled forcefully by something.

‘uh?’

A thought passed through my mind at that moment.

Now that I think about it how long have I been in memory?

More than that how long did this last?

‘for a moment!’

Casey shouted urgently but it was no use.

She was unable to read all of the memories contained in the magical power and was thrown out as if thrown out of the stream of memories.

‘It’s only the beginning!!’

Let your consciousness be immersed in darkness for a moment.

Casey Selmore opened his eyes and jumped up from the bed.

When I looked around it was deep dawn and the sun had not yet risen.

‘for a moment. What about the artifact?’

The paper in my hand had lost its blue color and had become discolored.

The artifact’s duration has expired.

‘end? ‘It ends here?’

really?

I thought I could finally follow the man’s traces.

“Ahhhh! it’s annoying!”

As I couldn’t control my anger and screamed I heard Betty’s cry from the living room.

“Casey! What time is it? Talk about it! “Be quiet!”

‘Delica Kingdom.’

After returning to his private quarters Ludger recalled what happened three years ago.

As James Moriarty he earned the title of godfather of crime but in reality everything he did was close to spreading what was originally happening to the world.

‘There were many hidden secret facilities in the Delica Kingdom.’

Preparation for war at the national level.

And all kinds of inhumane experiments conducted for that purpose.

The Steel Choir project was only a part of it.

There were several more secret operations that were unknown to the public.

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

I thought the entire gunpowder factory was burned down.

It seems like there was a separate person who made it.

‘Victor Dreadful was the one who developed that gunpowder. Given the circumstances it can be said to be certain.’

I raised my head and looked up at the night sky outside the window.

The bluish moonlight was giving off a strangely warm glow.

Thanks to this I was able to organize things calmly.

‘Liquid Golem. High-performance automaton. Considering the person who created such a thing it is not impossible to make gunpowder that is not affected by magic.’

And in order to use it to see if it worked well he contacted the liberation army and handed over this gunpowder to them.

People will only be interested in the liberation army that carried out the bombing and will not know what is hidden behind it.

‘We have eliminated their secret branches in Lederbelk and Baltanung but they will not disappear unless we get rid of the root.’

As expected it was a regret that he could not kill Victor Dreadful.

But even if I thought about it rationally I couldn’t help it.

Because I didn’t expect there to be another First Order.

‘But thanks to you I found out information about the new First Order. Black Knight Berom. The First Order uses an old-fashioned way of speaking and a blood-red sword.’

With this there are a total of three First Orders whose identities are unknown.

What abilities and strengths do the other three have?

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

Ludger glanced at the ring that Zero Order had handed over.

When I think about it now it was strange that he gave me this ring.

‘I gave it to you on purpose. To invite me.’

Zero Order was similar to the President.

Even if the other person is not the person you used to know as long as they are competent you will reach out in any way possible.

To put it in a good way he is bold; in a bad way he is a mentally unstable person.

‘but. ‘If I were to do something like this I wouldn’t be able to do it with my right mind.’

How will the next meeting with him go?

Thinking like that Ludger closed his eyes.

In the blue moonlit night between the window curtains.

Ludger sat in his chair and fell asleep quietly.

The next morning.

Ludger came to work early even though there were no classes and found Sedina cleaning the teacher’s office in the morning.

“Ah teacher.”

Ludger checked his watch.

It wasn’t even time for breakfast yet.

“Sedina. “You got to work early.”

“yes. “I’m trying my best not to disturb the teacher as she starts her day.”

“Have you eaten?”

“Oh no. yet. It’s okay though. “I brought a packed lunch!”

Sedina says that and shows the lunch box she packed.

When I opened the lid the inside was full of fresh green vegetables and fruits.

Is it really like a half-elf?

“…There’s a lot of grass.”

“yes. It’s good for my health and I like it. Ah indeed. “Have you eaten teacher?”

“no. “I haven’t done it yet.”

Ludger always eats breakfast separately.

We usually ate lunch together with the same teachers but even that became less frequent after the festival.

“For now I plan to have a good breakfast.”

Saying that Ludger took out a large container kept in the teacher’s office.

Inside was powder made by grinding all kinds of grains and herbs.

It was a processed food called magic meal that wizards eat.

Sedina asked with a trembling voice.

“Are you really planning on just eating that?”

“That’s right. “Is that any problem?”

“Of course there is a problem!”

When Sedina screamed Ludger flinched without realizing it.

While he was seriously wondering if he had pressed the wrong switch Sedina strode forward and snatched the magic mill from Ludger’s hand.

“Isn’t this the magic meal that wizards often eat these days because they can’t prepare their own meals?”

“…That’s right. “I also tend to use it a lot.”

“They say it’s filling and makes eating easier but this isn’t it! “Imbalanced nutrients ruin your body!”

“Uh um. yes.”

“I can’t do that. “I’ll give you the lunch box I packed so eat it all!”

“Isn’t this your morning?”

“it’s okay! “I have one more thing prepared for you!”

Aren’t you saying that and taking out another lunch box?

Ludger was dumbfounded by the unexpected and thorough preparation and could not find a reason to refuse.

“teacher! You must eat vegetables! “Simple food prepared like this will one day become the main culprit in destroying your body!”

The sight of Sedina speaking firmly like a mother preaching to a child complaining about side dishes was strangely powerful.

It was one of the things that Sedina could not compromise on that her idol had to skimp on his meals.

“I can’t do that. From now on I will pack your lunch box every morning and evening!”

“…No you don’t have to go that far.”

“no! “This is necessary.”

“I’m afraid you might be having a hard time.”

“I’m not tired at all. “I do this because I want to.”

If he is this stubborn it is difficult to stop him.

Ludger eventually gave up and nodded.

“i get it.”

“Then eat this.”

While saying that the lunch box was suddenly held out.

It’s definitely full of fresh grass.

…There is nothing but grass.

“Is there any meat?”

“doesn’t exist!”

“…Nothing?”

Ludger stared at Sedina with a shocked face.

Can a person live without eating meat?

Or were half-elves a race that lived without meat?

‘If you look at the Belaruna Petana that’s not necessarily true.’

Although Bella Luna was a pure elf she was a huge meat eater who loved meat.

However it is absurd to say that Sedina a half-elf does not eat meat.

“How do you get nutrients without meat?”

“This lunch box meal I created contains all the essential nutrients. “This plant here is good to eat because it has vegetable protein and if you look at the fruit here it has a lot of fructose and carbohydrates…”

The explanation continues in a neat and tidy manner.

They answer everything even things you don’t even ask whether they’re that happy you asked or not.

And after listening to it all I realized that the nutrients were surprisingly balanced.

‘no. ‘You know it has all the nutrients.’

Still wouldn’t it be nice to have meat?

Ludger wanted to argue but decided to swallow his words when he saw Sedina staring at him with wide eyes.

I felt like she would really get angry if I said something like that here.

Although Sedina is usually so calm and polite as if she were a rat.

There was no sign of any compromise in the part where his switch was inserted.

Moreover the tremendous spirit shown at that moment is such that even Ludger feels strangely pressured.

‘Has it been since Master that I’ve felt this much pressure?’

Zero Order and Chancellor Elisa Willow.

Of course these two have the power to match so they say that.

I never thought Sedina would have a side like this.

“Are you not going to eat it?”

When Sedina’s voice became anxious and her eyes began to sharpen Ludger hurriedly answered.

“no. “Don’t eat it.”

That’s how the meal started.

Sedina was sitting on a chair and watching the scene closely.

Because of this I didn’t know whether the rice was going to my mouth or my nose.

‘weird. He’s a teaching assistant and I’m a teacher.’

What is this feeling that the relationship has turned upside down?

While Ludger was eating like that an incident from the past suddenly came to mind.

“…Why are you doing that? What if the food doesn’t suit your taste?”

“no. The taste is okay. “It was tastier than I expected.”

Since it was a compliment Sedina blushed and smiled.

“But why…?”

“I’m just thinking about old times.”

“ah. “If it was your old days…”

“It’s not just another past it’s much further back than that. “It was a time when I was walking around with my teacher.”

Ludger’s teacher.

As soon as those words came out Sedina’s eyes lit up and she began to become interested.

“Are you talking about your teacher? “What kind of person was he?”

“He was a person who could only be called a monster. “How dare I not even come close to master’s magic skills.”

“Yes?!”

Sedina shouted in surprise.

Isn’t Ludger’s magic skill at such an incredible level that no one in Seorne can disagree?

It was not simply humility to honor the Master.

Even taking everything into account Ludger truly thought that he was inferior to his teacher.

“In a way I was very lucky that a guy like me was able to receive his teachings. Anyway when I was with him it was similar to what it is now.”

“What do you mean it’s similar to now?”

“He also always forced me to eat. “The only difference between him and you is that he only told us to eat a lot of meat.”

“Meat…?”

Sedina’s response was that she heard something she couldn’t hear.

“Well I don’t hate meat so I eat it often but… Master strangely likes to eat undercooked meat. “When I ate it I suffered from the fishy taste.”

Ludger’s words were light when he said “It was like that back then.”

From Sedina’s perspective it was completely unacceptable.

“Meat! In this world you can get all the nutrients from vegetables alone but meat is extremely biased to one side! “This is unacceptable!”

“It’s a thing of the past.”

“Of course I have no intention of criticizing that either. However… I have a feeling that something doesn’t fit with the person who is your teacher.”

Ludger also seemed strangely convinced by those words and nodded.

‘no. Considering Master’s personality I’m not sure about that either.’

He was so unpredictable that it was meaningless to dare to guess his actions.

Conversely the two of you might get along well.

‘More than that Master must have woken up now.’

The last day of the magic festival.

Ludger used “Master’s blood” one of the means that he would not use unless it was truly necessary.

It definitely had some effect and I was able to save some time thanks to it.

There was a reason Ludger didn’t use it.

‘The moment I use this Master will realize that I used your blood and will come looking for me.’

Although it is said to be unavoidable thinking about what will happen after that makes even Ludger tremble.

‘Considering his unruly personality he won’t come here right away but will look around various places to see the sights but he will definitely arrive in front of me someday.’

If that happens it will be a really big deal.

Wasn’t it none other than him who secretly drew blood from the sleeping Master and ran away?

What happens if we meet?

Just thinking about that made my back feel wet.

‘Maybe he’ll come right now….’

When you think like that.

Someone knocked on the door.

‘Who is it?’

When asked to come in the person who appeared was Seorn’s employee.

“What’s going on?”

“Well… a guest came to visit us who wanted to meet Mr. Ludger.”

“what…?”

Ludger’s heart sank.
