The Academy’s Undercover Professor – 55



◈ Episode 55 Red snake in the mud (2)

Hans who took advantage of the darkness to escape squatted quietly outside the door of the bar and waited for the fight inside to end.

There was no reason for him to participate in the fight between Ludger and the Red Society.

Even though he looks like this he doesn’t know how to fight.

The sight of a vicious werewolf with black fur over 2 meters tall sitting still was a strange sight like something you would see in a dream.

‘oh.’

Hans who had been listening to the situation inside with his ears prickled eventually got up from his seat.

‘It’s over.’

The sound of fighting coming from inside stopped as if silence fell.

The last thing heard was the pain-filled screams of Dutri the red snake who could be said to be the leader of the enemy society.

They were probably using torture to extract necessary information or something like that.

The fact that even the sound has stopped means that everything is over.

As expected when I entered the bar I was hit by the strong smell of blood.

“Wow.”

Hans who became more sensitive to smell after taking on the form of a wolf clicked his tongue and moved carefully so as not to step on the corpses.

Ludger was sitting at the front bar quietly sipping alcohol in a clear glass.

“Are you done?”

“okay.”

Ludger answered without looking back.

“What about those two semi-knights?”

“Under your feet.”

Hans was surrounded by corpses.

Hans decided not to ask what exactly happened.

“Ugh. “If I keep this condition I will become sensitive to smells and my head will spin.”

Hans immediately stuffed the ampoule of medicine given to him by Ludger into his forearm.

Phew.

His swollen size shrunk and he returned to his human form again. Then Hans quickly put on the jacket he had prepared in advance.

He trembled at the sight of the cruel scene around him.

“Your brother is really great too. “Can you drink alcohol in a place like this?”

“I just got used to it.”

“Rather what kind of alcohol is that? “It smells really good.”

Even though he had returned to human form his sense of smell which had become slightly more sensitive due to the effects of the transformation amazingly captured the smell of Ludger’s alcohol.

The scent is quite sweet.

The liquor itself in Ludger’s glass was so clean that there were no impurities so the flavor seemed quite deep.

This must be a fairly expensive drink.

“It is said to be the 38th year of Mount Gorgon.”

“omg! You mean that precious liquor? Holy shit! “Give me some too!”

“When did you say you were offended?”

“You have to drink it even if it makes you throw up because it’s so disgusting!”

Ludger handed him a bottle of alcohol and Hans took a fairly empty glass and poured himself a glass.

A shabby bar full of corpses.

In a place where the smell of blood and alcohol were strangely intertwined the two men sat side by side and completed their masterpiece.

“So you’re sure you killed that Dutri?”

“I haven’t killed him yet. “Because there is a place where you can extract the information you need and use it for more.”

“but. Now that I’ve moved to a new place here… what is it? Isn’t there something your brother told me before? “Are you saying you came here to sell rice cake?”

“yes.”

“I don’t know what it means to give away rice cakes but wouldn’t it just be that you’re glad you moved here?”

“I saw it correctly.”

“It’s an enemy society that has taken over this side and at the same time built up a lot of notoriety… If we hand them over alive the other organizations will be so happy that they will die.”

Of course not all of the enemy society has been eliminated yet.

Since they are the ones who dominate such a large city of course the total number of people is well over a thousand.

However not all of those thousand enemy societies are completely enemy societies.

Rather the 100 people gathered here were the core number of people.

“Now that the head of the organization is gone all that remains is for the rest to virtually disintegrate. What will you do brother? Absorb all the small things?”

“no.”

Ludger shook his head.

Even if we increase the population with a bunch of useless people there is no way the organization can be maintained properly.

“This side only uses the few that are needed. Of course you will need some subcontractors but not all. “Choose someone who is reasonably smart and has a good personality.”

“Hmm. “Let’s go back a little and get this.”

“Hans. I’ve done everything I could. “For the rest of the information if you go up to the office on the second floor above all of his documents and secret ledgers will be there so you can just look at them and proceed.”

“Hi. “It’s going to be busy again.”

Hans sighed.

This person worked hard for days and days to obtain information gather data and organize it.

Ludger completed all the necessary processes in just one night.

Of course it was possible because Ludger was that great but it didn’t feel a little unfair to Hans.

‘No. ‘I chose the safe path without risking my life to fight so I can’t complain about this.’

Of course he had to take risks when gathering dangerous information but it was also possible for him to leverage the power of this unique constitution.

That’s why I thought Ludger was even more amazing.

Otherwise there would be no reason for him to follow me and call me my brother.

“But even if the hideout is decided aren’t there only two of us my brother and I? “What are you going to do?”

“If there isn’t one we need to increase it.”

“Increase? But a little while ago no one came in….”

“I’m not talking about such nonsense. Hans. You probably know this too. “There are many people I know.”

“ah.”

At those words Hans immediately crumpled his face.

“Are you serious?”

“Why are you doing that?”

“That’s because….”

“ah. “Now that I think about it you don’t have a good relationship with that person.”

“Hmm. Rather than saying we don’t get along it’s a bit….”

The reason Hans hesitated was because he knew who the ‘acquaintances’ Ludger was trying to call.

Of course they were clearly capable in each field enough to be called by Ludger himself.

The only problem is that humanity cannot take responsibility.

“No but those stubborn people are coming? “No matter what you say they won’t budge.”

“I already sent the letter. “Unexpectedly I heard he just finished his work and came back.”

“Oh.”

As if just thinking about it made him uncomfortable Hans continued to grumble until his glass was empty.

“Do you hate it that much?”

“Rather than saying I don’t like it it would be better to be uncomfortable. There is no normal person. “Well it’s not something I would say with this type of constitution.”

“Can’t we just get along?”

“Whew. It sounds like you’re saying this because you don’t know your brother but how can we get along when we all have terrible personalities? “Some of them treated me like an experiment.”

“Is that so?”

“I did. It certainly was. At least I’m a bit quiet when my brother is around but if he’s gone I might really die. “Are you going to stay here?”

“I’m busy maintaining my Ludger status right now.”

“That’s it! “Have you ever thought about how much it bleeds me every time you leave your seat as a teacher?”

“That’s up to you. Are you willing to die?”

Of course you won’t die but you may be stressed to the point of almost dying.

Hans sighed.

If you ask Ludger like this it is a reality that has already happened.

“…ha. “If you think about it there’s no one who can do this kind of dirty work as well as those bastards.”

“Because his abilities are outstanding.”

Isn’t one of them who played a significant role in creating all the equipment used by Ludger?

“Is your brother better than that?”

“What do you mean?”

“First of all aren’t you Seorn’s teacher? Besides unlike my previous identities this time I was sold bare-faced so wasn’t it a bit of a crisis?”

“I did. “That’s why I was moving like this now.”

“You said you were a little suspicious of your brother so is it okay for you to just wander around like this?”

This was exactly what Hans was worried about.

If Seorn is suspicious shouldn’t Ludger refrain from going out into the city like this?

Especially since the other person is a magician they may be secretly spying on you in some way.

Of course it was necessary to move carefully in everything.

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Really? “Isn’t the other person a wizard?”

“Hans. “What do you think of wizards?”

“Hmm. What’s a wizard? If you use magic you’re a wizard. Still if I had to answer the question… A very rational and cool-headed investigator? “It feels like that.”

“I saw it similarly. As you said wizards are quite rational. No I think you have to be rational. “I don’t want to tolerate even the slightest mistake.”

A calm mindset is essential when manifesting magic.

Of course since wizards are also human they cannot be free from all mistakes.

However as a magician it is a basic skill to do your best to reduce mistakes where you can.

Especially for high-ranking wizards.

“The president is a 6th rank wizard. Even my head works well. “I understand your concerns because someone like that is suspicious of me.”

“But you’re saying it’s okay?”

“Let’s say the president is suspicious of me and keeps an eye on me.”

“Let’s say yes.”

“And what if I notice? What if I ask you why you were secretly watching me? “Then what do you think it will be like as president?”

“that….”

Hans was sobbing and couldn’t answer quickly.

I need to secretly track them without being detected but do I get caught? Isn’t that a pretty bad situation?

What if I shamelessly say something like ‘I was doubting you’?

“Isn’t it okay if we don’t get caught?”

“It’s not ‘certain’ that we won’t be caught. However the possibility of being caught may exist even if only in the slightest. Hans. What are you considering here?”

“…Hmm. I’m sure it’s the latter. “If you aren’t really sure you won’t get caught you shouldn’t touch it.”

“The opponent is Seorn’s teacher and his true skills are not well known. “If you were caught carelessly following someone like that even if you were the president you would be in quite a bit of trouble.”

“So it’s better not to do it than to lose money by following it for no reason?”

“That’s what a wizard is. Besides I’ve shown myself to be a good teacher so far. “If you make a mistake here and disappoint me the president’s position will be quite embarrassing.”

The president did not trust the teacher so he committed a crime.

That fact alone will worsen the president’s position.

Of course considering the current president’s personality we will prepare as many safety measures as possible but in terms of giving such ‘room’ it is no different from defeat.

“The position of president. Even the president cannot do anything when there are opposing factions that do not all follow him not even the teachers. The more you do that the more careful you will be. “Because that’s the kind of place it is.”

“aha. I guess so. So you’re saying it’s okay for you to move freely like this taking advantage of that gap?”

“Of course if you’re too explicit you’ll get caught. “If your tail is long you get stepped on.”

That was why Ludger managed his image as a teacher and solidified his substance.

Thanks to that even if he goes out freely like this now the president will not chase him or follow him even if he is a little suspicious.

Especially on a day like today when a sparring took place between nobles and commoners and Seorn became noisy.

“I understand. “Then that means there’s no need to worry right now.”

“It’s like that.”

“So if we all gather together and form an organization have you decided on what the name will be?”

“name?”

“Now I don’t think you and I are planning to settle down in Lederbelk properly. If so now is the time to clearly decide on a name for the organization. Even if we get rid of class and all that wouldn’t the atmosphere still be there if there was no name?”

“That too.”

Grumble.

After pouring all the alcohol into the empty glass the bottle was already empty.

Perhaps because it was a high-quality drink and delicious I felt a sense of regret.

There was still too much to drink.

“How much will it be if we collect all of them now?”

“Hmm. “Isn’t it about six or seven including you and me?”

“enemy.”

“Not much. “It is ridiculously insufficient to form one organization.”

“But more people will come. “Maybe just 10 people won’t be bad if a few more people are added.”

“10 people? It’s appropriate. So have you decided on a name?”

“name. “It’s a name…”

Ludger suddenly remembered a poem and the original text of a famous novel of the same name that he had read in his past life.

I read it a long time ago but it was such a famous masterpiece that I still remember it clearly.

There is a character there.

A person who suppressed his own sins and judged those who were difficult to deal with by law.

The one who eventually got rid of himself.

“.”

“? Is the name of the organization unknown? What is this? “Did you just change an unidentified meaning into a pun?”

“okay.”

“I like it because it has a good feel.”

Thus the name of the new organization that Ludger would create was decided.

“older brother. “One last drink?”

“okay.”

braided.

Celebrating the birth of the new organization Ludger and Hans shared a toast by clinking their last glasses cheerfully.

In the alley.

It happened one night in a bloody bar.
