I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy - Chapter 134



134 – Regita – 16

The empty cup is filled.

The occasion to celebrate the perfection of Regita’s Greatsword ended up being made with alcohol.

There are many ways to celebrate, but Sariel likes to drink.

“Everyone, one piece! Great job!”

Demery and Louin quietly took their glasses. And I thought quietly to myself.

‘We didn’t do anything… ‘

If waiting is a job, I barely did that one thing.

Sorry.

As soon as the glass is empty, Sariel will fill it up.

At first, everyone gulped down her drink, but later, Sariel couldn’t handle her pace, so they just held their glasses.

Jekiel quietly sips alcohol at his own pace. Sariel stood in front of him.

“Are you going to sleep today?”

“For now, we plan to do so.”

It is not polite to leave a person who is always isolated as soon as the business is over.

It must have been a long time since such a noisy atmosphere. It would be nice to spend a day at leisure together and then leave.

Sariel smiled happily as if he was glad to hear that he would stay for a day.

“Originally, I was very reluctant to even have someone visit, but it’s not bad to have a drinking buddy like this once in a while.”

“As a drinking friend, I don’t think I can keep up with that amount.”

“What is difficult? You can just drink it all the way like drinking blood.”

“That is difficult.”

After arguing a few times like that, Sariel’s eyes deepened at some point.

“Thank you.”

And a few words of sincerity. My Kiel bowed his head once involuntarily. Jekiel was also quite grateful.

“It’s not just a normal thing to say.”

Sariel pushes her glass into her mouth once more.

“There is a greeting saying that you saved Ruin, and there is also a meaning that I ask you to take good care of me in the future. He heard from DeMary that he had already saved Christine once.”

“As I helped with the coronation… Somehow it happened.”

“I will cheer you on. Come anytime if you need help.”

“I feel confident.”

Sariel’s support is really strong. Only then did Jekyll burst into laughter.

The drinking party continues to deepen. Sariel became obsessed with something, took a few bottles of alcohol by herself, and disappeared into the distance.

Everything is fine.

The atmosphere. The weather. Work will be solved just everything

After a while, someone came over and quietly poured a drink into Jekiel’s glass. After confirming his identity, his pupils widened slightly.

An unexpected person did something unexpected.

“Regitta?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“……”

You can feel the surprise more than the joy in the normal appearance.

I was expecting that. We already knew that Regita would return to her senses once the weapon was created.

However, the shock is great nonetheless.

Old arrogance, arrogance, fighting spirit, etc… It was so awkward that there was no atmosphere that would cause a fight even if we just breathed in the same space.

“I thought she would return to her original personality once her horns were restored.”

“If you think things have changed, you must be wrong. It’s right that you came back with the personality you think.”

“Misunderstanding?”

“Yes. Misunderstanding.”

Regita nods her head.

Jekyll sets her glass down on the table for a moment and stares at Regita. I hold her breath and try to figure out what has changed in her.

‘Definitely.’

It has changed.

Her approach was so shocking that she hadn’t noticed it, but I could feel her noticeably strengthened.

I don’t feel that way because of the great sword Sariel made. Apparently, she herself is stronger now.

Regitta smiles softly.

“You may be confused by my way of speaking or my actions, but… It’s not because of the change in personality, it’s because of the difference in strength.”

“I just felt the energy.”

“Then the story will be fast. Now she feels like she’s reached a level where she doesn’t have to compete with anyone. I keep feeling like I don’t even have to prove my strength… I become calm without knowing. So.”

Regita gently holds out her hand as if asking for a handshake.

“I want to say thank you. What you made wasn’t just a greatsword. It made me who I am today. Is not it?”

“……”

“It must be that my appearance is very awkward right now.”

My Kiel nodded slowly and took his hand.

“You understand. It’s so awkward.”

“Of course I understand. Because sometimes I feel awkward looking at myself.”

Is it because of the tone? Regita’s hand felt strangely soft. With this, she couldn’t believe that she was wielding a greatsword.

Dazedly feeling the touch, Regita quickly pulls her hand away from her. When is the first time you want to shake hands?

I thought the conversation was over, but Regita raised her glass.

“Would you like a drink? Some good things happened.”

“What. I will.”

The two drinking glasses collide lightly.

The time the moon hangs in the sky. The moon in the glass sways lightly before regaining its original form.

She thought it would be over after one drink, but Regita repeatedly bumped her glass with Kiehl’s. Did you change your method to a duel by clashing drinking glasses instead of swords now?

… I don’t think so, but seeing that my cheeks are already red.

“I have a question for you.”

“Did you keep drinking because of that?”

“What do you mean? No. Never.”

“I see. Well, the taste of alcohol is not bad. So, what do you want to ask?”

However, Regita did not utter a question. In the end, it was Kiel who spoke first.

“Come to think of it… Even though I received favors, it’s strange that they’ve changed quite favorably.”

“Why is it favorable to you? Yeah… “

Regita nods slowly and continues her words.

“Because I am a dragon obsessed with treasure.”

“It is a treasure. Do I have anything like that?”

“I don’t have to go crazy with the treasure itself or the treasure itself. For example… Didn’t you decide to get Sariel’s full support now?”

“Yes.”

“Everything like that is a treasure. To receive benefits that others will never experience.”

“What do you want to say? Are you going to steal those things from me?”

“It can’t be.”

Regita shakes her head.

“If there are treasures that have value only if you get them, there are also treasures that are so rare that you are happy to see them. The recognition of Sariel I just talked about is also of that kind.

“Um.”

“I was able to see that because I was by your side… I received the greatsword because it was by your side… There were thoughts that came to me naturally.”

Regitta smiled.

“If you stay by my side, you will be able to face many treasures in the future, I mean. So you’re thinking of chasing after me for a while? And you can’t chase and bully them. You should be friendly.”

“I’m chasing you. Whoever wants to.”

“On my own terms. I decided that don’t worry too much Aren’t you bothering me?”

I just hoped that they would go back to the demon dragons’ dwelling place, live moderately, and come forward to help only in an emergency. Things seem to have gotten a little bigger.

… Well, by the way, breaking Regita’s stubbornness would be close to impossible, as it was then and now.

In the case of Sariel, if she passes the test, she will at least give her the condition that she will do something for her, but Regita just does whatever she wants. Because that’s Regita.

This time, the conversation is really over.

Jekiel turned around and tried to go inside. But Regita quickly moves her stride and blocks Jekiel’s way.

“What else is the problem?”

“You haven’t asked yet.”

“You should have asked when you had the time. I cannot wait forever.”

I tried to take another step, but as expected, I was blocked.

“Okay. Got it. It’s nothing else, it’s because I had a few fragmentary memories before I came to my senses.”

“What kind of memories.”

“Memories of making a great sword.”

They said it was an uncertain memory, so I thought it would be a very distant memory, but it was unexpectedly very recent.

But it’s not strange.

It is a very important event to have a horn broken and restored again, but if you think about it, it is rather surprising that there are memories that are remembered in the process.

If it was another demon dragon, the memory itself would have been completely blown away.

“What are you curious about?”

“So, you touched my body to infuse mana, and when you cut me, you touched my body and cut it.”

“What… It did. Because it was inevitable.”

“That’s what I mean.”

After saying that, Regita suddenly looked up at the sky. She was illuminated by the full moon in the dark night sky.

After taking a few breaths, he scratches his cheek. His fingernails are very sharp, but surprisingly, his cheeks are not scratched.

“That… I mean, I keep worrying about it. I wonder if that means anything.”

After hearing that, I unknowingly drank a glass of alcohol.

I feel it over a hundred times today, but I can’t get used to this guy.
