The Academy Leader is too Strong - Chapter 82
Only Krnovel
“Should we eat something?”
Because it was a pretty arduous schedule, I was particularly hungry.
“That’s okay too.”
Winter didn’t object. She started walking straight towards the chapel.
I headed to the shopping area inside the academy. It was an alley with many restaurants mainly frequented by students.
“What do you want to eat.”
“Uh. Anything?”
“okay.”
I gave a vague answer since it was what I expected. I headed to a fast food restaurant where I could get a quick bite.
It was funny that there was fast food in this worldview.
“Did we buy a lot?”
Winter, who was looking at the catalog while waiting for food, spoke softly.
As Winter said, the items purchased at the auction today were substantial. Of course, most of them were items for Berenice.
“Are they all good things?”
“Yes. Otherwise, Bereninche will kill you.”
“… … No way. My brother.”
Winter smiled awkwardly and answered. But I shook my head.
That guy was a guy who would do anything. Berenice knew even when I was excommunicated and the Duhane family tried to kill me.
“……really?”
“really.”
Yet she did nothing. She even made it a condition.
“How many were ours?”
“Three.”
Among the items purchased at the auction house, there were three that were ours. One was a ring dedicated to the princess. The other was an oak tree that had been imbued with divine power.
“ah. There was this too. “What is this?”
Winter, who was looking through the catalog, pointed to one and asked.
“Cursed totem.”
“Ah~ Curse, huh?”
The last thing I bought was a cursed totem. It was introduced as a sacred item from the jungle region in the southern part of the continent.
Winter gaped at the unexpected word.
“Um, a curse? It says here that it is just a sacred item of the black panther goddess in the jungle… … .”
“That’s the cursed totem.”
“ah.”
Winter was speechless. Her face looked like she was wondering why she had bought such a cursed item.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Because I need it.”
The mid-episode also had a boss that changed with several choices. This cursed totem is a quest item that changes that boss.
“Do you like the jungle?”
“……no.”
Winter, who found the desert difficult, immediately showed that she disliked it. But I didn’t care. The reward is too good to give up.
If the difficulty wasn’t that difficult and the rewards were better, there was no reason not to do it.
“Look forward.”
“Ugh.”
Winter nodded weakly, as if she had expected this to some extent. There wasn’t much time left until Episode 5.
If you can prepare, it would be good to prepare.

“Senior. Where did Canis go?”
Winter tilted her head in the quiet room. She looked around and felt something empty, and for a moment, she was lost in thought.
Eventually, he realized that Canis was not there and asked me. I made a puzzled face. I’m just curious why you’re asking me that.
“I don’t know. He’s not from our church.”
“Oh right.”
Winter nodded at my words only then. It seemed that Canis had infiltrated her daily life without her knowing. Only then did Warden realize that Canis was not there.
“For some reason, I couldn’t hear you humming.”
“Canis.”
“Yeah~ You called me?”
I saw her wanting to see me, so I called her personally. When I called Canis’ name, she suddenly appeared behind me like this.
Winter and Warden paused in surprise, and Canis smiled wickedly at them.
“Are you warp?”
Warp is one of the great magics. A top-class mobile device that moves by folding and compressing the space up to the coordinates. Canis’ movement seemed similar to his.
“No. Ancient magic.”
“Can I learn it too?”
I heard that in the past, there was a warrior who could warp in the form of Chukji (縮地). I asked Canis just in case.
If you can learn, it is the season to bow and learn. Canis, who smiled charmingly, tilted his head.
“Can I use Dabi too?”
“what?”
I heard something absurd. I looked at Canis with my mouth open. She kept tilting her head.
“I did not know?”
“… … “How do I know that?”
“Now, follow along~ [Kupido].”
The group’s faces turned like shit-eating. Everyone here, except for Canis, is ignorant of magic.
Winter can use some divine magic, but the principles are different from those of regular magic. Even outsiders like him know that magic doesn’t work just by reciting a spell.
“You don’t even know the principle, so how can you talk about it?”
“of course? “For ancient magic, you only need to memorize the starter word while it is imprinted.”
“… … [Kupido].”
With a face full of doubt, he spat out the words Canis had said. Surprisingly nothing happened.
Canis’ eyes were unusually vibrating left and right. She was clearly upset.
“Are you playing with me?”
“Oh, no. This was real?”
“You said you usually played with it?”
“So… is that how it is?”
When I opened my eyes sharply, Canis hid behind the sofa. I sighed softly and sat down.
Canis noticed that I was still and slowly poked his head out. Winter sighed in disappointment and offered me some black tea.
“Dabi. Dabi. Would you like to take on personal requests?”
“Personal request? What is it?”
“It’s not an official request.”
Canis quickly took over and stole my tea. As if she knew that would happen, Winter quickly handed me the next cup of tea.
After emptying the teacup halfway, Canis started talking about the request. If it is not an official request, it means that it is not registered in the academic department and therefore does not receive practice points.
“What.”
“hmm. “I have to go to a poisonous swamp, but the rumor is that Dabi is walking around without a gas mask?”
If you don’t have a gas mask in a poisonous swamp, the best thing about it is speed. There is no need to rest periodically and there is no need to worry about external infections, so the speed is different from a regular party.
“hmm.”
I was lost in thought as I placed my chin between my thumb and index finger. A request that requires high speed. I thought it might be collecting something.
“gathering?”
“Oh, you noticed right away?”
“What are you collecting?”
“That’s a secret! You’re saying I can’t tell anyone but Davi~”
Could I catch a hellhorn in my current state? At least that’s enough for me to be able to roam the poison swamp by myself.
“I will accept that you are participating in the battle.”
“Uhm. “It’s annoying~”
“Hey. Get out. Just.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll do it.”
If Canis really helps, I could deal with most of them except the owner of the poisonous swamp. At this level, it would be difficult to go anywhere and die.
“What is the reward?”
“hmm. Is there anything you want?”
He mentioned the most important reward. Instead, he scratched his chin at the question. Is there anything he can receive from Canis?
“What would be good?”
Since I am a wizard, I wanted to request something like arcane magic that has been passed down through my family.
It would be a great power. Whether I give it or not, the problem is that I don’t have magic power.
“Is there a way to use magic without magical power?”
“of course?”
“What?”
My eyes widen at the unexpected answer. There is such a method. Canis smiled broadly at my surprised look.
“Why don’t you use something else instead of magic?”
“huh?”
“Stamina or blood?”
“Blood magic? That’s a secret, so it’s not easy to learn.”
It’s good if it happens like this. Some people use blood magic in the game.
He was a guy who used magic on Asian characters. I’m a bit reluctant to use that guy, but there’s no way he’s the only one who can use blood magic.
“Isn’t this when you need connections?”
“therefore. “What you’re saying is that you can help me learn blood magic, right?”
“Of course~”
“okay. call.”
Magic like blood magic is a type of vision magic that has been passed down through the family. He is someone who takes great care in managing his magic to the point where the word vision comes to mind.
I don’t know if it would be easy to get the other person’s consent. That was something Canis would have to figure out.
“Okay. Then when are you going to go?”
“Can I do it tomorrow?”
“Of course. Then let’s go find a weapon.”
* * *
-smart.
“Come on in.”
Winter, who was organizing the church’s tax statements, woke up when there was a knock on the chapel door.
Since I always met guys who would just barge in without saying anything, I was happy to knock. I did the gentlemanly thing of knocking, so I should treat them accordingly.
“Winter Student.”
“Ah, Vice-Captain!”
The person who came in was quite a welcoming face. The vice-captain with her long black hair welcomed Winter.
Winter nodded with a bright smile and prepared tea. She took out the box the vice-captain was holding, as if she had expected it to happen.
“You received so much with empty hands that you prepared a gift?”
“What is this? Hehe.”
Winter smiled and accepted the box. The box was packed with cookies from a high-end bakery. Winter immediately opened the package and prepared it.
“Are you feeling lazy today too?”
“Hehe. “I wanted to do that, but unfortunately I got caught.”
“this. That’s too bad.”
Winter was really sad. Talking to the vice-captain was one of Winter’s favorite pastimes.
The vice-captain looked cute like that and smiled gently as he sipped black tea.
“Then for what reason?”
“Originally, I was going to meet student Davide. “I have a request for you.”
When Davide’s name came up, Winter made an apologetic face. Sheila tilted her head.
“Now, my senior has sent out a request… … .”
“A request? I haven’t heard anything.”
The Imperial Knights were also able to check the list of bachelor scholars who managed the commissions.
Sheila, who checked the list before coming to the chapel, let out a sad sound.
“It’s been 30 minutes since you left.”
“Oh. We got it mixed up.”
I had no idea that our paths would diverge like this. The reason Sheila visited the chapel was because of a request.
Unable to resist the princess’s nagging, I came sooner than expected.
“Where did your request go?”
“You said you were going to the poisonous swamp.”
“… …Poisonous swamp. I have to hurry.”
Coincidentally, the place Sheila was trying to request was also a poisonous swamp. In this case, it was quite heartbreaking that our paths diverged.
I didn’t know the timing would be this bad. I thought it would be best to chase after it right away.
“Are you going to follow me right away?”
“Yes. I think it’s urgent, so I guess we’ll have to do that.”
“that. “You must be fast, senior.”
“yes?”
“I heard you said you were going to run straight to Area D. As you know, you are immune to poison.”
“I think I should go now, Winter. I’m sorry. I think I’ll have to have the tea later.”
“Oh, no! Work comes first.”
Thankfully, Winter understood Sheila’s situation. Sheila, feeling a little pleased with Winter’s kind heart, left the chapel immediately.
Area D is where the hell horned ox we caught last time lives. Are we going to catch the hell horned ox this time too?
It was difficult to infer their whereabouts. I thought I would take someone who was good at finding directions with me just in case. I had a feeling that we would get lost again.
