‘It’s been a while since I saw you, junior…’ No, you’re a professor now, right? It’s amazing, really.’
Stella, a senior in her second year, moved her body to take classes for her final semester at the academy. And the class she would take that afternoon was that of John I Boris, with whom she had a connection.
‘Master, you’ve already become a baron with a fiefdom…’ ‘The last time I saw you, I thought you were a little stronger than me.’
3 When subduing Lycan Slope at the princess’s territory and dealing with assassins of unknown identity, it was difficult to think that he was at the level of a master. Of course, she was clearly a stronger knight than him, reaching the intermediate level of Expert, but it was difficult to say that she had reached the level of a master.
In just less than half a year, John found himself in a very different place.
‘I’m jealous…’ Now all that’s left for her to do is eat well and live well, right?’
If she had known this would happen, Stella would have participated in the suppression of the rebels in the south, or at least set her foot in the business, but it was already inevitable.
“It’s not easy to travel commercially these days… Phew… “
War is coming. Anyone who runs a business cannot fail to know the flow of funds on the continent and the prices of weapons materials and other items needed for war.
It is a self-evident fact that war materials will make the most money. The problem is that the competition to obtain it is fierce, and it is not easy to obtain even if you have money. Especially if the opponent is Stella, who is no different from a commoner.
-I’m sorry, Stella Dan Sang-ju. I know they made the reservation first, but it was forced on the western side of Freibach… We’ll refund your deposit, so just think of it as if you’ve been bitten by a dog.
‘There’s really not much left… ‘That damn family is bothering me until the end.’
You didn’t treat me properly as an illegitimate child, and you only hurt my father.
Refining the black ribbon, the only thing his father had left him, and strengthening his will to succeed, Stella entered John’s class.
‘There will definitely be a lot to learn. Even though we don’t know exactly whether he was the Master, it seems to be true that he killed the ogre. Also, it is said that he has now become a baron, so he may even develop into a new customer… ‘
Stella, who had various thoughts, succeeded in signing up for Johan’s class, and the first class she took was like this:
“Professor.”
“Yes, student.”
“Forget that and just talk about your first love.”
“…Huh?”
“Kkkkkk.”
It didn’t go as smoothly as she expected.
In an atmosphere that quickly became tense, Stella quickly analyzed the reason why this situation arose.
‘As expected… The kids who decided to work in Freibach have come forward.’
The female student who just asked Johan a question is an excellent student who ranks third overall in the second year. After graduation, she was assigned to work for the Knights of the Duke of Freibach.
And as Stella knows, the students who were supposed to work in Freibach set the tone.
“Isn’t the professor also a knight! “A knight must have at least one or two romances.”
“That’s right. Even if it’s a little embarrassing, isn’t that the befitting of a knight, hahahahaha!!”
Everyone seems rude, but they never make comments that seem to cross the line and continue to provoke John.
When women gather together, they tend to talk about men. In the case of knights, an all-female group within the empire, there was naturally nothing to qualm about.
Except for John, all the professors so far have been women and knights. Therefore, since only women were gathered together, sometimes we would talk about various dirty things with the students. Therefore, what they were doing couldn’t be seen as being excessive or crossing the line.
But John is a man. A male knight who can be considered the only one in the empire.
This kind of story is probably too much for men, and in some cases, it could be seen as s*xual harassment. Stella thought so.
But if John points this out, it will ruin the mood of the entire article. That’s why they tried to pressure Yohan through subtle s*xual harassment.
‘How will the professor solve this…?
She looked at John’s face with anxiety and a little bit of unknown anticipation.
“It’s my first love… “
And at that moment, although it was only a short time, Stella saw John’s cold smile and had an intuition.
This class and this man are not typical.
“I can’t see my first love anymore.”
“Yes? What is that… “
“It’s already in a place you can’t see. And I am left here alone, alive.”
“……”
No one could open their mouths. It is difficult to find a person who speaks calmly about the death of a lover, even among female knights who are indifferent because they have seen many people die.
Isn’t this the kind of thing that John, a man, would have to say while shedding tears?
Ignoring the reactions of those around him, John continued his speech, and there were no more people left making the same remarks to him as before.
“I know everything about your situation. I’m sure someone told me to mess with them. I understand everything. “These are knights who will soon be working somewhere, so it won’t be easy to disobey the words of their immediate seniors or those who will be their superiors.”
Hearing Yohan’s words, the faces of the female students who had harassed him earlier turn red.
They are knights too. These are people who are proud of the fact that they will soon graduate from the highly renowned Imperial Knight Academy, who have not yet been buried in the dirt of the world.
No matter what the reality is, they are pure students who still feel shame.
“For this reason, I won’t say anything big about you. Honestly, it’s true that you guys look cute in my eyes.”
“So, I will do my best to teach you everything as much as possible. Unlike those who oppressed you. Because that’s the right thing to do as a professor.”
He shows generosity to his enemies. What a knightly thing this is.
This was enough to make the 2nd grade students’ favor towards Yohan soar to the sky.
‘I was mean and thought the professor was male and younger than me, so I tried to make light of him and make fun of him… ‘
‘I guess it’s because he’s a master. ‘It’s wrong to think with us.’
‘I’m already handsome, but I think I look even more handsome… ‘
Of course, it was difficult to deny that John’s handsome appearance had a significant impact.
The hearts of most of the female students at the training center were also relaxed and warmed by Yohan’s warm smile and gentle atmosphere.
However, Lena’s group, including Eleanor, who had been with Johan for a long time, and Stella, who took the midterm exam together, noticed that the smile was not positive at all.
“…I think it would be better to mentally prepare, right?”
“Oh my… Still, I’m a stupid b*tch for not being able to stab my seniors in the head because they came in a year earlier… “
“It’s true that Sharon and I like strong men… I think it would be good for Yohan to become less strong during training. Ugh… “
“…Resolution.”
The words were interesting enough, and Stella, who happened to be nearby, approached them with interest.
“Hey, I have a question… “
“Ah, is there Stella, a second-year senior who was in the same group as Yohan during the midterm exam… “
“Just call me Stella. Anyway, we are in the same grade now. hehehe.”
She recognized Lena, who recognized her, and allowed her to speak informally to Lena, gaining her favor and instinctively realizing that they would be connected to Johan.
Previously, Johan had mentioned Stella as a talent he wanted to recruit to his territory, so Lena, Sharon, and Meron also treated her friendly when they spoke to her.
After Lena and her group briefly introduced themselves, Stella asked what she was curious about.
“You guys seem to know something about Professor Ivorys… What’s going on? I know something is unnatural right now, but… “
“Um… To put it simply, I am very angry right now. The professor doesn’t smile very often. Of course, I laugh when I need to, but I rarely smile truly.”
“Well… It’s been a while since Yohan smiled sincerely at us, right? “In some ways, he is similar to other men in that way, but he is a slightly different type.”
“More than that, doesn’t that thing you said earlier bother you? A story about first love… “
What interrupted the women’s chatter was the sound of John’s footsteps.
-Cow!!
“aaah!!”
“W-What’s going on now…?” ?”
John put magic in his feet and focused everyone.
“Everyone here is a knight, regardless of whether they are men or women. We shouldn’t forget that. So, I trust that you will understand everything I do from now on. “Just like I did with you.”
It was only then that female students like Lena and her group began to feel uneasy.
But Yohan did not pay any attention to this and smiled even brighter at their expressions.
“Then let’s proceed with the first class. From now on, everyone take off their clothes.”
He dominated the atmosphere of the training center with words that would shock even women who were accustomed to all kinds of obscene remarks.
