The Academy Leader is too Strong - Chapter 54
Only Krnovel
Sadly, Winter didn’t like the antennae.
“No, sir. Who, or rather, what religious order makes priestly vestments out of leather!”
“Should I consider this an exoskeleton rather than leather? Is this also chitin?”
“Me? I don’t mind.”
“Oppose!”
“But? It doesn’t matter.”
Winter blushed and expressed her emotions. She had never experienced anything like this before, so she enjoyed it a little.
Warden tilted his head at my question. It seemed as if nothing mattered. I couldn’t understand why Winter was so excited.
“You just have to be pretty~”
“yes.”
Canis, who appeared at some unknown time, took my side. Winter suddenly took out a silent bell and shook it.
Warden, seeing Mukjong for the first time, was surprised by the sudden mental change. I asked if there was any reason.
“Is there some religious reason?”
“Ugh… … Ugh.”
“Be honest with me.”
Winter, who had been thinking for a long time, seemed to gain courage from my words.
“I don’t want to get covered in insect skin!”
“Inma. You’re too honest.”
I heard a very personal reason. Even if it was an insect, wouldn’t it be fine if it had good performance? I like things like romance and fantasy, but performance was the top priority.
“What about the design?”
“Bring me some paper.”
I roughly drew it on the paper that Winter handed me. I made it based on clothes that came to mind and that I saw in past games.
I came up with a design that felt as religious as possible.
“It’s pretty~ Can I get one too?”
“You are not from our church.”
“But~ wouldn’t it be worth it for me?”
“What did you do, Inma?”
Kanis was the first to speak after checking the design that was handed to him. He flatly refused the sudden request.
Priest uniforms are clothes that symbolize the denomination. When you wear it, you become the face of the church. If this troublemaker causes an accident while wearing these clothes, it will be our fault.
“Is it a coat?”
“It’s made so you can wear it like a coat. You don’t have to wrap it up tightly.”
“Hmm.”
“Good activity.”
Winter gave in to it after seeing the design. He didn’t know there would be a backlash from a place like this.
Warden didn’t say anything because he wasn’t interested in the first place.
“Ah, that’s right. Davi. Davi.”
“why.”
“We found a way~”
“Oh yeah?”
Winter looks as if he just remembered it. He must have studied hard before I came, and the impact of the insect priest’s uniform must have been strong.
“Master.”
“huh?”
“I’m excited.”
“You crazy bastard.”
Winter opened her mouth and scolded Warden. Canis wondered if what she had heard was true. I’m sure it was a sudden remark, but I took it seriously.
It is a sense that can be said to be exceptional at detecting danger. That’s enough to use the dirty word “excitement.” As someone who completely trusted its abilities, I could never easily pass over it.
-smart.
To everyone’s surprise, someone came looking for her. Winter looked at Warden in surprise, and Canis looked amused.
“Huh? Vice-captain?”
“Oh my. There are a lot of guests today.”
Winter, who had run out in a hurry, opened the door. He moved faster than anyone else.
The vice-principal, who had been entering with a gentle demeanor, seemed surprised to see the chapel crowded with people.
She looked at people with quick insight. Canis was famous in her own way, so she passed on it, but when she saw Warden, she tilted her head.
I got up from my seat.
“This is Canis, the 2nd place student in the first year magic department.”
“Hello~ This is Canis Ulbusis.”
“This is the new Warden who joined our church.”
“Are you Warden Jord? Please take care of me.”
“Aha. I am Sheila, the vice-captain of the 6th Imperial Knights. Please take good care of me as well.”
We were able to sit down only after Winter, who happened to be serving tea, held out a tea cup. Even though the four people’s eyes were focused on him, the vice-captain didn’t pay any attention.
I just drank black tea and tilted my head.
“The taste of black tea has changed?”
“I think it’s because I~ got off~”
“Student Canis is very knowledgeable about tea. Of course, Student Davide’s tea also had its own flavor.”
“Dabi is a complete beginner~ I’m a complete expert~”
“It sounds like you want to be kicked out.”
Only after I growled and spoke did Canis close his mouth. His playful gesture was so annoying.
The vice-captain seemed to like the harmonious atmosphere and was smiling much brighter than usual.
“Besides, what’s going on here?”
“I forgot about this.”
The time spent chatting became longer. It was thanks to Winter who answered the questions with sincerity for some reason.
There was a momentary lull in the atmosphere and I had to intervene to move on to the topic.
“I have to do something called a nominal sponsorship inspection. I even have to write a report on it?”
“Inspection of the church? “Was there anything like that?”
I asked, looking at Winter. She answered with a nod.
“What if it’s nominal?”
“yes. Yes. “I’m busy with work, so I’m taking a break for a while.”
You say those words so clearly. Tintin and all, but that’s probably not the reason. The vice-captain I’ve seen so far is like a sword when it comes to work.
Above all, I am not the type of person to do useless things. A thorough personality that is different from his soft appearance on the outside.
I guess I wasn’t the only one who thought that, but Winter’s face was similar to mine.
“haha. “You don’t believe me.”
The vice-captain must have sensed our distrustful gaze and let out a sheepish laugh.
The deputy manager’s expression turned serious, as if he was satisfied with the chat that lasted nearly 30 minutes.
“First of all, this.”
The vice-president took out a document from his bosom. He accepted it with a puzzled expression and examined it.
And I was so surprised that my eyebrows twitched. I never dreamed I would see this thing now.
[Optional Career Experience Student Application]. This is something you only see in 4th grade, especially among bright students.
What this means is simple. Our group has spit on you! So come back in a year, and in return, we’ll give you this!
He handed it over to me, a second-year student. Even to me, the leader of a religious sect, in the Imperial Knights’ Order, where no one but the Imperial Family could trust me.
“Vice-captain.”
“yes. “Student Davide.”
“It may be presumptuous of me to say this, but I quite, um, like the Vice-Chief, no, I think of him very favorably.”
“I don’t know what to do with myself when you think of me that way. I feel the same way as student Davide.”
“Yes, that’s right. My current relationship with the Imperial Knights, especially with the Vice-Captain, is quite positive. However, this is clearly an act of provocation.”
“… … .”
“Vice-captain, you probably know my temper. “But is it because you believe that the Imperial Knights will not be disturbed that you have brought this up?”
The vice-captain smiled awkwardly as my expression became increasingly grim.
Canisia was always smiling, and Winter had an unusually serious expression on her face. Only Warden, who had just come in and did not know much about religion, looked puzzled.
I realized there was some hidden meaning to this. The numbers are so shallow that it’s hard to believe that the vice-captain with that bright image did it.
This is a clear provocation, and one that doesn’t work very well.
“I feel ashamed. I am sorry.”
is it. What the vice-captain is saying now is that he has no intention on this matter. In other words, it is the choice of a superior above the vice-captain.
For example, Ethan. But it doesn’t really fit the number of that old man with dark circles under his eyes.
“The sorrow of public servants cannot be helped.”
I spoke as if I understood. Of course, since I have never been a civil servant before, in some ways it would be close to deception.
As if that was enough, the vice-captain smiled comfortably. Thanks to that, my face gradually hardened.
I tried to touch it a little more, but it didn’t work. Is it just a matter of delivering this document?
“That’s why. Vice leader. Even though it may seem like this, I am the leader of a religious denomination. This suggestion itself is a kind of provocation. Please don’t let me misunderstand.”
“sure. Anyway. It’s something I wasn’t willing to do either. “I guess I’ll have to defend myself hard now.”
I personally poured tea into the empty vice-captain’s cup. She took a sip of tea, expressing her gratitude.
Rather than slowly savoring the taste, it seemed like it was moistening the inside of a dry mouth. After a brief pause, she slowly opened her mouth.
“This document itself is a kind of spitting. Originally, this document was only handed out to fourth-year students, but we handed it to Davide, a student who was two years ahead of us. That means it was a lot of fun.”
“I’m in love.”
“yes. “We, the Imperial Knights, want to secure Davide students ‘unconditionally.’”
Up to this point, it was a story I had expected. I sat there with a calm expression, lost in thought. The vice-captain seemed unwilling to tell me anything more.
I tried to defend her and all, but it didn’t really help much. She just waited for me to speak with the same face as always.
“Well, that’s it. You’ll find out soon. For now, I’ll reject it. As you know, I’m the head of a religious order.”
He casually grabs the document that is being pushed away. An attitude of expected reaction. She somehow looked refreshed.
Was that a crossroads just now?
“Then I guess I should go now. I unintentionally caused trouble.”
“it’s okay. But is it okay if you go like that?”
“yes?”
“It doesn’t seem like the story the boss wants.”
“… … “You sound quite harsh.”
There was a lot in that smile. I could feel the sadness of the subordinate. The atmosphere naturally became solemn.
“I will cooperate as much as possible regarding the sponsorship report.”
“yes?”
“You can’t hide it when you’re in a position of being sponsored. We will do our best to help you. Of course winter is coming.”
“… … Oh, me?”
Winter let out a dumbfounded sound at the sudden name being called. The vice-captain laughed cheerfully, finding the sight so amusing.
“Then shall we come visit you soon?”
“Gladly.”
The vice-captain left with a smile on his face. I saw her off and buried her body on the sofa as she was.
“Dabi~”
“why.”
“Why did someone like the vice-captain of the Imperial Knights come here?”
“I’m curious too.”
Canis, who suddenly grabbed my shoulder, opened his mouth. Without fail, she asked what she felt.
Why is the vice-captain so kind to the Anaye Church and to me? It’s suspicious that he’s originally kind, because of the way he sometimes acts.
“Do you have a feeling something?”
“hmm.”
I asked Warden, who was sitting there dumbly. Warden thought about it for quite some time. Where would there be any need for thought?
“My personal opinion is that you should definitely get along with the Imperial Knights.”
“You mean to avoid it.”
Most of Warden’s words can be interpreted in the opposite way. Warden’s intuition is not always right, so you can’t blindly trust him. But it’s too solid of an ability to just ignore.
“I should meet with my superior.”
The vice-captain’s superior. The one who leaves orders to the vice-captain. If I were to think of him, I wouldn’t have even met his face at my current position.
But I don’t want to live in a state of discomfort and get hit in the back of the head. I could guess who it was.
“Let’s go later.”
It wasn’t urgent at the moment. It seemed better to prepare for Episode 3 right now.
If you are the person you expected, you will be bombarded with side quests when you meet the superior now. I decided to wait a little longer, prepare, and then deal with him properly.
