I Became the Crazy Instructor at the Academy - Chapter 152
N-4 Gamblers and Billionaires. And Just a Fox (1)
Ivan is not the type to be picky about people.
No matter who here extends their hand,
No matter where it takes you.
With a unique smile,
I will gladly follow you.
Everyone here knew that fact.
Adela checked her trivial date itinerary once again,
The princess repeated her name over and over again and made a noise,
For perhaps the first time, Miho sat at the table as a competitor rather than a mediator.
“Arm wrestling is dismissed. Should we just hold an auction instead? In my life, I realized that there is nothing as fair as money.”
“Ivan is not an object.”
“I…Am the princess…”
There were several rounds of back and forth.
A battle for Ivan without Ivan.
Because everyone had their own specialty,
The game categories were not easily narrowed down.
Adela tried to make money somehow,
Miho was ready to hold a triathlon,
The princess seemed to want to just call the guards and beat them all up.
Just as spring comes to the stolen fields,
In the end, a conclusion that everyone could understand was built on the sand castle.
“What are the rules?”
“Until two people become penniless.”
“What is the upper limit?”
“Nothing.”
Chollalak-
Cards scattered on the table.
Poker. The fairest game of luck.
This is what happened in the end.
She was a princess who had been negative about all the games that had been presented to her, but after this suggestion, she started shuffling the cards confidently.
“Is this what you suggested, Adela?”
“Of course, princess.”
Play poker, and the person who holds the money until the end wins.
We only play with the money we each have in hand.
The winner becomes Ivan’s representative and enjoys time with him.
The only thing that is absolutely forbidden is to say something to Ivan like, ‘We bet on you, but he won.’
Accept the result honestly. If you run to Ivan and whine about losing, or try to interfere with his time with him, which is the winner’s right, you will be immediately arrested in the name of the princess.
On top of those rules, a dramatic agreement was reached between the three people.
“Uh… But will Miho be okay?”
Even as she majestically shuffles the cards, the princess’s eyes turn to Miho.
She seemed to be slightly concerned, and the same was true for Adela.
That’s right, this game may be the fairest of the alternatives so far…
Because the odds of winning were not completely divided.
To put it simply, the princess was a ‘scammer.’
No matter how much of a luck game it is, if even 10% of the skill factor remains.
Experience creates value.
Against Miho and Adella, who are relatively beginners, you can easily lead the game.
And, Adela…
Churrrr rrrr-
“…”
“Why are you carrying so much money?”
I just had a lot of money.
So much so that it takes time just to count the gold coins that come out of her purse and roll around on the table.
I was worried that the stakes would skyrocket, so I decided to only spend the money I had.
Nevertheless, Adela was the ‘eldest daughter of the Cash family.’
In that bullets are as important as skill,
Adela also showed off her own special skills
“It’s a lot of money for a great date.”
“Huh, that’s right.”
“Hmm.”
The princess regretted her own carelessness in not spending the country’s money earlier,
The instructor, a salaried prisoner, was a little discouraged.
But what can you do?
The princess has skills,
Adela has money,
Miho only has one sword.
Actually, I don’t even know the rules.
If this is the fairest method,
At least it’s the only game that no one knows about until they crash into it!
“I’ll bring my wallet in a moment.”
I have to get it.
Thinking like that, Miho strengthened her resolve and stood up quietly.
“Go slowly. “We’ll be reading that book you’ve been reading so hard.”
“It’s Evergarden Beach… You have a good eye.”
“For a moment. It says the dress code here is swimsuits only? “I underlined it too.”
“Oh my, my…”
Leaving behind the leisure of competitors,
Miho left the room.
While walking down the hallway, he suddenly sighed.
“Haa…”
A veteran instructor who has experienced all kinds of hardships.
A swordsman hero who can cut through even the impossible.
I’ve never felt burdened by her numerous qualifiers, but this time she was an exception.
I felt a little bit unfair.
Who could have predicted that I would end up in a difficult situation because I was not used to gambling for a living.
Still, there must be some way.
I have to come up with it somehow…
“Instructor Miho. Where are you going in such a hurry?”
“I’m going to get my wallet.”
First, let’s set the upper limit on the number of bullets that can be bet. How much money is in your wallet…
Wait.
Miho turned her head,
I looked back at someone who passed by without notice.
“…Ivan?”
“Hmm, the structure here has changed a bit while I haven’t seen you. I’m sorry I’m in a hurry, but where is the bathroom here-“
“Hey, Ivan! Why are you here?”
“Huh? Uh… Can’t you?”
He asks with wide eyes.
No matter how you look at it, Ivan was right.
I don’t know why the person who said he would come tomorrow is walking here now, but one thing is for sure-
“That can’t be right.” Did you enjoy the atmosphere of your hometown?”
“Yes. As expected, it was more comfortable to stay at my parents’ house.”
It wasn’t a bad feeling.
Even if it was unofficial, it was even more so that they were the first to welcome him back from his hometown in the other world.
It wasn’t very instructor-like to be happy about such trivial things.
Miho was overcome by a slightly different impulse.
‘…Should I catch it?’
After defeating all the games and gambling,
Let’s grab the reward that falls right in front of us and then go have a drink together.
That thought suddenly occurred to me,
I immediately shook my head.
I didn’t want to use this kind of shortcut.
It was the last pride of the Sword Saint.
But…
“By the way, did you say wallet? Are you going shopping tonight?”
“It’s similar. By the way-“
This will be okay.
“I have a problem. “Can you listen to me?”
She was an instructor, and he is also an instructor.
Okay. This is consultation for concerns requested from a colleague.
There is nothing strange about anything.
“Let’s do that.”
—
Her younger sister’s fandom reached its peak,
As a result, I ended up sitting in my house where ‘Scarlett’ was staying.
My brother, who was powerless, could not resist the words, ‘I don’t need you on a women’s frivolous night,’ and ended up moving to another world.
The first thing she took from Russell, who came back with only a wish that he wouldn’t bother Scarlett for too long.
“So, she’s playing poker and she’s not confident?”
“That’s right.”
It was instructor Miho’s counseling for her concerns.
Breathing in the cool night breeze on the rooftop,
The first thought that came to mind after hearing her story
‘Did I eat something wrong…?’
It was.
No, how can you be so serious?
Are you serious about poker? Did you discover your true hobby in life during the last banquet with the principal?
Or is it really just a livelihood?
“Um… Are you in trouble these days?”
“It’s not like that. However, it’s a game I really want to win.”
It couldn’t have been that way.
Because the opponent is the hero of the empire.
Or are the stakes a bit too high?
Hundreds of gold coins being passed around funny… That feeling?
Thoughts were endless,
I soon cut it off myself.
Who cares about whom?
The person who stands in front of me and sips tea is a prisoner who lives without the law.
I am not a great person to engage in illegal gambling.
So, rather than making useless guesses.
I decided to focus on the essence.
“I am good at mana circuits.”
To my fellow instructors who are having trouble figuring out how to solve the huge problem in front of them,
It was time to give some advice.
“It’s hard to understand what other people find difficult, so you could say it’s a talent.”
“I think so too. When I look at your skills, I sometimes get curious about what’s going on in your head.”
“Me too, Instructor Miho.”
He looked straight at her and said.
“Your battles. I am amazed every time I see the sense and meticulous calculation that went into them.”
“…Thank you for the compliment. However, this time, I can’t utilize any of my special skills.”
“No.”
Instructor Miho is competent, but
There are some parts that are a bit old-fashioned.
“Because a specialty that has reached its peak will not become meaningless in any situation.”
If you just release that, the rest will take care of itself.
She tilted her head and asked back.
“You can’t turn the table over and fight with a sword.”
“You can’t turn the board over. You can’t even raise your sword. But…”
“Just?”
“It means you can fight your way.”
She thought over the meaning of my words and said,
He seemed to notice something.
I helped with that flow of thought.
“What do you think about when you fight?”
“…The opponent’s weaknesses and carelessness. Just focus on those two things and leave the rest to your own skills.”
“You will do that.”
Whether cutting down a monster with a sword,
Whether you’re swiping the stakes with cards.
If you only change the method with the same attitude,
Even if you rip it all off, you’ll still have some left over. At least I think so.
“…Instructor Ivan. I learned a lesson.”
“You can do that after you win. I was just saying what I thought.”
“I promise.”
I keep thinking about it,
I don’t know why you’re so serious.
She tapped my shoulder and said hello,
She emptied the teacup in one go and turned around.
“It’s a shame.”
“What do you mean?”
“What you said to me, I said something similar to your student.”
Is it Scarlett?
“I will take note of the advice to think simply.”
After she said that,
As I opened the rooftop door, I glanced back at myself.
“Do you like the sea?”
“Yes?”
He was smiling an unusually mischievous smile,
It wasn’t awkward to look at either.
Amazingly enough.
“Yes, well. “I like it.”
“That’s a good thing. I’ll remember that.”
Counseling on recent concerns and the unexpected sea.
I tried to relate those two keywords, but it didn’t work out well.
Squeak-
The door was closed.
She went down like that,
I decided to go back the same way.
“The faculty lounge will remain the same…?”
Since I came to say hello, I should at least say hello.
Even at night, there will be duty,
It could be an instructor I know.
Ivan, that crazy b*stard, is no more.
Before going to the hotel and going to bed,
I’m going to have fun with that friend.
