The Academy’s Undercover Professor – 233

◈ Episode 233: Marks of fire (3)
A blue gaze coldly looks down through the pierced eyes of the mask.
A burning pain felt in one cheek.
Albert wondered if he was dreaming.
It was right.
To a man whose face and identity are unknown neither my father nor anyone else.
Not only that the guy who should never be able to make eye contact with me was looking down at me as if looking down on me.
“You son of a bitch!”
The moment Albert was about to get up Ludger’s hand moved.
Wow!
Albert’s head turned to the side with a cheerful sound.
I felt a tingling pain in the other cheek which was fine.
Violetta who was watching the scene anxiously felt her heart sink.
“Oh my god!”
It must be dried.
No matter how much of a Ludger he was he was not allowed to touch anyone from the Pablo family.
“That’s enough. If you do more than that there will be problems…!”
“Violetta. You’re saying strange things. Hasn’t the problem already occurred? “That too is a very big problem.”
“Ha but if we end it here it can be forgiven. “I can somehow handle the hand-stitched sword…!”
“Handjjigeom? no. “It doesn’t matter that I hit this damn guy.”
That wasn’t the problem? So what’s the problem?
While I was puzzled because I did not understand what he said Ludger turned his head and stared at Violetta.
“This guy tried to humiliate you the manager of the house in front of everyone. “What is the bigger problem in this situation?”
“that…!”
Violetta was speechless.
The reason was that a completely unexpected answer came back.

I feel so sad that Ludger says something like that and I don’t know what to do.
I even felt grateful for Ludger’s actions in caring about me.
still.
“…I’m fine. In the first place I am in a position where I have nothing to say even if I hear such insults. “I am a dirty person from birth born and raised in the bottom of a gutter.”
He didn’t want the owner to suffer losses because of him.
After hearing that Ludger spoke in a calm tone.
“Violetta. “No one is clean and dirty from the beginning.”
“At least I think I am.”
“Even so you are trying to live a better life. And I laugh at people like that and try to trample on them.”
Ludger grabbed Albert’s hair and pulled his head up.
“I just can’t bear it.”
Wow!
Albert’s head tilted to the side.
Ugh.
Albert couldn’t accept reality and made stupid noises.
His cheeks swelled up a lot because he was hit so hard.
“So the treatment I give this guy is appropriate.”
“Even so let’s take care of it later…!”
“Take care of it? “Did you say it was an afterthought?”
When Ludger’s gaze turned this way Violetta felt like she was out of breath.
“Violetta. I would have told you. This Royal Street will be our castle. “No one would dare say anything to us.”
An indescribable spirit flowed from Ludger.
“Or did you not believe me? “Did you think I was someone who throws away words?”
“That’s not it.”
Violetta hastily answered.
I knew full well that Ludger was not a person who spoke lightly.
This is a man who made even nonsense that others would not believe into reality.
Wasn’t it he who transformed an abandoned street into the city’s most fashionable street?
“If you know don’t forget.”
Ludger put an end to Violetta’s anxiety and then looked at Albert.
“Albert. Albert Pablo.”
“Ugh.”
“answer.”
Ludger tilted Albert’s head back.
Only then did Albert come to his senses and look up at Ludger.
The expression that was glaring at Ludger as if he were going to kill him disappeared and his eyes were filled with fear.
“What should we do now? “I have to finish the story I haven’t finished yet.”

“Do you think I can get away with touching myself?!”
“Other than being safe it’s nothing to worry about right now.”
Ludger shook Albert’s head back and forth.
“The important thing is this. You caused a disturbance in our store and disrupted business operations causing significant financial loss to the store. How are you going to take responsibility for that?”
“And that’s all…”
“At best? “I guess there wasn’t enough conversation between us.”
As Ludger raised his hand Albert closed his eyes tightly.
“Oh okay! Got it! What do you want! say it!”
Albert thought.
This person called the owner must be crazy.
Otherwise there was no way he would hit me so openly a member of the Pablo family.
Albert never thought he would suffer because he was always hurting and harassing others.
And the violent situation he actually encountered was enough to make him scared.
I don’t like being sick.
I didn’t want to get hit again.
That was the only thought that came to Albert’s head.
“What do you want?”
“That’s right. “I need to know what I want so I can listen to it.”
“That’s a good answer. “You should come out favorably like this.”
Ludger lowered his raised hand and tapped Albert on the shoulder.
Albert was glad he wasn’t hit and waited for Ludger’s next words.
After all it’s money right? Because there is nothing easier than asking someone to pay with money.
His family has a lot of money. No matter how much the other person asked I was able to pay enough.
After paying.
What’s important is what comes next.
‘Did you think you would get away with putting me in this situation? As long as I return safely I will kill all of you.’
At that time I will remove that abominable mask covering your face and burn your entire body.
So Albert was able to endure the humiliation of this moment.
“Tell me the conditions.”
Ludger moved aside so that Albert could see Violetta.
“Please kneel politely and apologize to our manager whom you insulted. “Then let’s just skip this incident.”
“what?”
“I will not claim any monetary damages. “It’s as simple as saying a word and all these problems can be solved.”
Albert opened his eyes wide.
Apologize? who. To Violetta? Are you a noble yourself?
Albert’s lips trembled in humiliation like a tidal wave.
At this moment I had no fear or fear of being hit by Ludger.
“this…!”
It’s hot and all that remains is anger.
“You damn bastard! Did you look so funny when I asked you if I was coming? what? “Are you asking me to apologize?”
“Are you saying you don’t like it?”
“You want me to kneel to the bitch who sold her body to me who is now a noble wizard? “You’ve really lost your mind!”
Albert who touched Yeokrin screamed loudly.
“I will kill all of you here! I don’t need it anymore! If they are all related to you I will destroy them all with the power of my family! and! and you!”
Albert glared at Violetta with wide eyes.
“I don’t know what kind of big fish I caught this time but I don’t think I can get away with a minor burn like that day. “I will take special care of you four years ago.”
Violetta’s complexion turned cold.
The sight of Albert screaming reminded me of a nightmare from the past.
-I’ll leave an indelible mark on you for the rest of your life. Be happy. Because it’s proof that I was in control. ha ha ha!
Albert called out and burst into laughter covering half his face.
The image of him laughing at her as she screamed in pain that day was still vivid.
“I will crush your face so that you won’t be able to raise your head anywhere from now on! Let’s see if I can treat you well this time!”
Albert was spewing out all the anger in his head.
In the end he ended up saying something he shouldn’t have said.
“I will engrave a ‘stigma’ that will follow you for the rest of your life!”
That moment.
The temperature around me dropped dramatically.
‘what?’
Violetta shivered from the chill she felt for a moment.
I thought someone had used magic but that wasn’t the case.
The fact that it felt cold was simply a feeling and there was no actual cold wind blowing inside the store.
However there was only one reason why I felt cold.
It was because of the life flowing from Ludger.
“Owner?”
Although only Ludger’s back was visible Violetta could feel it.
That he is now more angry than ever before.
And that was the second time I had seen Deon since that day when he was wounded by Silver Sun.
“Did you say it was a stigma?”
“What is it….”
Albert also felt the seriousness of the situation.
Ludger was wearing a mask but Albert’s complexion turned pale at the formidable spirit radiating from his body.
“stigma. good idea.”
“What what?”
Before Albert could say anything Ludger’s hand covered Albert’s face.
And the magic was activated.
Good luck!
The flames from Ludger’s palm covered Albert’s face.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
When Ludger let go Albert rolled around on the floor.
Ludger quietly watched the scene.
The flame went out quickly.
Albert touched his face with trembling hands and was startled when he looked at the mirror provided inside the store.
“My my face! “My face!”
A terrible burn took over his face which had never been blemish-free.
Albert couldn’t believe that the person in the mirror was his real self.
“Aaaah! no! “How could you do this to me!”
“Why are you doing that? “Wasn’t it something you did because you liked it?”
“Priest! Call a priest! hurry! “If burns aren’t treated quickly…!”
Albert held onto Ludger’s trouser legs and prayed.
Ludger looked at this and stretched out his arm towards Albert again.
A warm light flashed from his hand and Albert’s screams stopped.
The pain I felt on my face disappeared.
“Huh?”
Albert smoothed his face with both hands.
And the moment I looked in the mirror again I was startled.
“Are the burns gone?”
Albert looked back at Ludger with a fearful gaze.
“What are you doing? “What on earth are you?”
Albert was surprised to see the burns on his face completely erased.
Burns are difficult to cure unless you are a high-ranking priest.
But Ludger corrected it on the spot and in the blink of an eye.
hallucination?
no. The terrible pain of my face being burned was definitely not a hallucination or a dream.
I knew that the other person was a fairly skilled wizard.
However this level of healing ability was something the wizard could not show.
“Why are you so surprised?”
“what?”
“It starts now.”
Albert’s complexion turned pale due to the overwhelming anxiety.
“It’s the beginning of a poem. “What do you mean?”
“How many people have you burned so far?”
“….”
The moment Albert heard those words he realized what Ludger was trying to do.
“It seems like it’s hard to count the numbers accurately. “But it must have been more than 10 times.”
“Ah ah. no.”
“So you should feel the same way.”
Albert tried to resist but his hands and feet were fixed in magical chains from when the magic was activated.
Ludger’s hand touched Albert’s face again.
Chii Iik.
Wow!
With a scream flames bloomed again.
To leave a mark.
* * *
“Ugh. “It’s the head.”
“What on earth is happening….”
Albert’s escorts who had fainted came to their senses.
As they stood up clutching their sore lumpy heads they belatedly remembered Albert and hurriedly looked around.
And they were able to find Albert lying on the floor.
“omg! master! Come to your senses!”
The guards who checked Albert’s condition were at a loss when they saw him.
There were no visible injuries but it was obvious that something had happened as he was unconscious with his eyes closed.
“Are you awake?”
The voice that gave me chills made Howie’s eyes turn to where the sound came from.
A masked Ludger was sitting on the sofa prepared for guests.
Standing next to him were Pantos and Violetta who were watching the situation.
The guards broke into a cold sweat at the energy flowing from Ludger.
An instinctive sense of crisis.
They had no choice but to wait with bated breath for Ludger’s next words.
“Take care of that damn thing and get out of here.”
“…the head of the family will find out about this.”
The escort put his arms around Albert and warned him.
It was because the pride of the Pablo family did not allow them to just leave like this.
Ludger responded with a sly smile behind his mask as he displayed his humble pride until the very end.
“If I was just scared of that I wouldn’t have done something like this.”
“….”
“Get out.”
The guards glared at Ludger and left the store.
Ludger watched the scene in silence.
“Are you okay?”
Pantos who was considering the possibility that the guards would turn around and rush in asked while keeping his eyes on those running away.
“What do you mean?”
“It looks like they will never let this go.”
“I guess so. “They will probably put pressure on you officially or if that doesn’t work they will secretly work behind the scenes.”
“Is it still okay?”
“Wasn’t this what you wanted?”
Pantos did not specifically deny Ludger’s words.
“If the opportunity to fight comes I welcome it.”
“That’s it. Besides I needed to show it to you at least once.”
“What are you showing me?”
“It is no use trying to persecute us using power and prestige.”
Above all the Pablo family will not be able to express their anger towards him officially.
First of all there wasn’t a single wound on Albert’s body.
This side had an excuse to make a proper fuss.
If the Pablo family had to choose they would probably secretly send someone to deal with it.
Rather they will warn Lederbelk City not to interfere with their affairs.
“There will be a dog fight without a referee. Pantos. “You can do it right?”
At those words the animal ears on Pantos’ head perked up.
His expression still didn’t change but I could clearly see that he was very excited now.
Rather Pantos was happy now.
“After all choosing to follow you was a great choice.”
“I take it as a compliment. And Violetta?”
“yes. “Owner.”
“A lot of time was delayed because of one idiot. There is still a lot of time left so let’s open the store and start doing business again.”
Ludger took off his mask.
Employees who were biting people outside came back inside.
The House of Verdi is starting to come alive again with customers coming back.
Meanwhile Ludger headed to the manager’s room on the second floor.
“More than that what is the owner doing here?”
“It’s been a long time since I had a holiday so I decided to put on some new clothes.”
When Violetta heard those words her eyes widened and she immediately burst into laughter.
“Why are you doing that?”
“no. “If you had just asked me to do it I would have made it and sent it to you but I was surprised that you came to visit me in person.”
“I did it because I wanted to see how well it was going. So can you make clothes that suit me?”
“Of course. “Actually I have already thought of clothes for the owner.”
“…Before?”
Violetta said that and opened a closet on one side.
It was filled with all kinds of luxurious-looking men’s clothing.
“These are all things I made. “These are things that would suit the owner.”
“…There are a lot of clothes.”
“I was accumulating it like this because I didn’t know if an opportunity would arise but fortunately the opportunity came.”
Ludger realized that Violetta’s eyes had turned dangerous in some way.
This is dangerous.
“…I guess I’m busy right now so I’ll come back later.”
“Oh my where are you going? Would you like to try this on first?”
Ludger naturally tried to run away but was caught.
