First Class (1)

When offered a meal.

Will spring finally come to me too? … … I didn't think of anything like that.

Since I am a new teacher just like her, I wonder if i can have a meal to promote friendship. It's only when you're in the heat of your youth that you're allowed to have the heart-pounding illusion for nothing.

In fact, when I followed Selina, there were three other people besides me.

two men and one woman.

They all look unique, as if shouting, "I'm a wizard."

"Heh heh heh. hello."

The first to reach out to me and ask for a handshake was a very warm-hearted man.

The skin is thick and the overall face is round. He seems to be quite old, but he smiled like a friendly next-door neighbor.

I shook his hand lightly.

"This is Rudgar Chelsea. I am in charge of the Manifestation theory."

"This is Brino. I am in charge of golems in the summoning class."

The next person who spoke to me was a bewitching beauty with long light purple hair covering one eye.

"oh. You are a handsome man. nice to meet you. My name is Merilda, who is in charge of enchantment and hallucination in the Curse and Haul series."

"yes. Nice to meet you."

the last one left had a slightly different feeling than the previous two.

He was a man with dark blue hair up all back and wearing rimless glasses on his face.

He was frowning the whole time, as if he didn't like the fact that he was here with him.

When I looked at him, he looked at me as well, then turned his head. It was an expression of his unwillingness to even introduce himself.

what is with this guy

While I was puzzled, Merylda smiled and explained in a small voice.

"This is Mr. Chris Benimore. As you can see, he is a nobleman who is different from commoners like us."

ah. So that was it.

I've heard of the Bennimore family. didn,t they have a long history in the empire?

Chris, even if he is an academy teacher, probably has no desire to be friends with commoners.

In my case, since I am a fallen aristocrat in terms of status, it is only natural that I be looked down upon by the current aristocrat.

"Wouldn't Mr. Rudgar be ignoring us just because we're commoners?"

"I don't care."

When I replied that it was absolutely not, Ms. Merilda widened her eyes and then smiled lightly and withdrew.

hmm. After all, there were five newly appointed teachers including me.

One noble, one fallen noble, and three commoners.

However, since everyone has become a teacher at this Seorn Academy, it must be that they are talented people who are never inferior in their field of teaching.

"I can't stay here any longer. I asked what kind of guys were newly appointed, and they said they were fallen nobles and commoners."

Chris's cold voice flew in before he could even say to go out to eat together.

At that, Brino smiled awkwardly, and Selina flinched and panicked. Only Merylda glanced at Chris with an unkind look.

me? I just have no idea.

It only takes a day or two to see nobles immersed in the idea of ​​the chosen people.

I was showing the attitude of saying, "If you're just going to go, go on your own," but Chris gave me a sharp glare.

"Don't be proud."

Didn't he just turn around and leave?

It's not someone else, so why did he do that by pointing at me?

was he originally acquainted with Rudgar? It doesn't really seem like that.

'It would be nice to get along with fellow teachers, but I don't think I'll be able to get along very well with all of them.'

I ignored Chris, who had disappeared, and looked at the other three.

You could say that he was a fellow teacher who had been assigned at the same time, but he couldn't put his mind at ease.

Maybe there is a spy planted in the secret society among them.

'Is there a First Order among these three?'

Currently, there are close to 40 members of the secret society hiding inside the Seorn Academy.

Of course, considering the entire population of Seorn Academy with this large site, 40 people is nothing, but that doesn't mean there's no chance of not encountering them on the road.

Excluding the Third Order, one of the Second Orders may have infiltrated as a student.

Especially in the case of the First Order, even the teachers cannot escape suspicion.

'Because Rudger took the position of teacher with the First Order. There's no law saying that other First Orders shouldn't do the same.'

The question is, who is it?

If you said that we came together this semester, it would definitely narrow the range of guessing.

The problem was that the phrase 'they came in first' could be interpreted in any way.

Was the first period much earlier than me? Or was it around the same time as mine, but a little earlier.

Of course, I had no choice but to be suspicious of those who asked me to eat with the same motivation.

In fact, isn't the reason why you called me like this was to subtly tease me?

I really can't be careless.

I tried to keep my expressionless face and followed my fellow teachers to the cafeteria.

Still,I think it's not bad.

* * *

New Animology teacher, Selina.

She had just been assigned to the new academy not long ago, and became a teacher in the elemental sciences of summoning.

She came in with her swollen breasts, but at the same time was quite nervous.

Seorn Academy has a great reputation beyond the Empire and in other kingdoms as well. The students who enter here are geniuses who will be responsible for the future, who are qualified to be treated anywhere by themselves.

Teaching such children came as a great burden to her.

'What if I make a mistake? What if I can't teach you? Besides, there are a lot of noble children here!'

The difference between a commoner and an aristocrat is huge.

Thanks to the development of magic engineering, the world gradually changed, and commoners became members of the House of Representatives and became involved in politics. However, the social barriers were still high.

I heard that the reason why there were 5 teacher positions this time was because the teachers who were in charge of the class until last year had retired.

The reason why they quit is not known, but it wasn't that there were no guesses if you knew how to use your brain a little.

Before coming here, the wizards I knew had repeatedly warned me of the territorial behavior of the noble students.

There are students who secretly look down on teachers and try to win over them.

Selina was terrified.

'Even the royal family is said to attend this school.'

Wasn't the third princess a sophomore? She was in charge of first year students, so she wouldn't be involved right away.

It seems that the orientation on the first day of the semester went smoothly, but it is also true that I am still anxious because of my low self-esteem.

Selina didn't want to go on like this, so she decided to make friends with the other new teachers who had just been appointed this time.

Still, life at the academy might be better if you have a colleague with whom you can share your hard work.

That's how I made friends with Merilda, and after calling people one by one, I went to find the last one left.

Rudger Chelsea.

A man from an aristocratic background, not a commoner. However, because of his family's decline, he was not a difficult position to approach.

Until I met him, I definitely thought so.

'and.'

At first, the crowd in the hallway split left and right, so I wondered what was going on.

Could it be that the royal family, whom I had only heard of, made a visit?

Breaking that expectation, it was a well-dressed man who slowly approached me. gray suit. black frock coat. Even a silk hat on his head.

'Wow, my God.'
