“Is it starting today?”

Lunarin Brettis, one of the Academy’s magic teachers.

She smiled as she remembered her schedule for today.

Today is the start of external training for first year students.

It is the day when first-year students who have finally completed theory, practice, and performance receive their first request.

Did you say it started with 1st year intermediate class 3?

Of course, that wasn’t the schedule Lunalin was looking forward to.

‘Hehe, it must be difficult because the schedule is crowded from the beginning.’

There was only one person she could think of.

Edin was the owner of the Academy General Store from today.

‘I wish I had been selected as a lead teacher today.’

If she had done that, she would have been able to go to the general store and meet Edin, but she clicked her tongue, saying it was a shame.

Unfortunately, she had no choice because she was scheduled to attend a class for wizard-level students in the second-year advanced class.

“Teacher Lunarin. What are you thinking like that?”

“Yes?”

At that time, a male teacher approached her.

Pointed ears, pure white skin, waist-length blond hair, and an appearance too beautiful to be considered a man.

And even a wooden longbow said to be made from the roots of the World Tree, which he carries on his back.

They were elves, a rare sub-race that was extremely skilled in archery and spirit magic.

Saella, a male elf, was an S-rank adventurer and held the title of warrior. As expected of an elf, he was very specialized in using spirit magic and archery.

Basically, it is said that elves are born with talents that are difficult to compare to humans, but Saela was an even more special case.

He shows such incredible spirit affinity and archery talent that he is said to have been chosen by the World Tree, which the elves regard as a god.

Taking advantage of that talent, he made a name for himself as an S-rank adventurer while on active duty.

Although it has been nearly 20 years since he retired, as an elf with a long lifespan, he still maintains the abilities he had during his prime.

Currently, he is a teacher at the Adventurer Academy, teaching elemental magic and archery.

He has a divine appearance that makes women turn around even if he just stands still, and he has a talent that is second to none among elves.

Plus, the incredible career and honor that proved it.

Naturally, he never ran out of women.

Current adventurers as well as academy faculty members.

There were many cases where even students confessed to him.

‘As expected, a man like me.’

And Saela enjoyed it very much, although she was a bit biased towards women.

As a result, he had a strangely strong sense of pride when it came to women.

He thought that the woman he liked and had set his sights on would fall for him right away if he pushed her even a little.

But, to him like that.

A rare enemy has appeared.

She is Lunarin Brettis.

This was a woman I met after entering the Adventurer Academy.

As soon as I saw Saela, I fell in love with her at first sight and immediately approached her.

However, Lunalin treated him only as a co-worker.

‘My pride is hurt…!’

A woman who doesn’t let go even though she says hello first and treats her well.

Of course, it’s amazing that he came from a decent family and was talented enough to have received the title of hero and become an S-rank adventurer if he hadn’t retired.

But even so, there is no woman who would not fall for Saela.

There shouldn’t have been any.

From then on, Saella started to become very attached to Lunalin.

He went to great lengths to seduce her.

However, the more Lunalin did, the more he distanced himself from Saella.

As if it was annoying.

That ended up burning Saella’s pride even more.

“…Oh, no. I didn’t think about anything.”

“Uh, what?! Teacher Lunalin?!”

Now, it has gotten to the point where whenever he even talks to Lunarin, she just leaves with a straight face.

“ Instead, let’s have a cup of tea and talk together. I have a special herbal tea that only comes from the elf forest…”

“Not interested. I have to go to that class.”

Lunarin cut it like a knife and headed straight to the 2nd year upper class classroom.

Saela clung to her for a while longer, begging her persistently, but she didn’t even listen.

“Ugh… You are the first woman to ignore me like this.”

Unfortunately, the more it happened, the more Saella became more proud and more motivated instead of giving up.

“Mr. Saela. Nowadays, that would be a big deal. Don’t you know stalker crime?”

“Huh. Don’t worry. I’m the one making the dash, not anyone else. There’s no way women wouldn’t like it, right?”

“…Hehehe.”

Another teacher passing by warned him, but he didn’t even listen.

‘Just wait and see. ‘I’ll make you come find me on your own someday.’

Saella imagined Lunarin looking for her with sparkling eyes, and smiled sinisterly.

Of course, even his beautiful appearance made him look attractive.

#

‘Hehe, class is over. ‘I’m going to go see Edin.’

Runarin thought of Edin with a bright smile, to the extent that it was hard to imagine how he treated Saella as coldly as ice.

What Saella had longed for so much was to make him find himself.

She was already doing that to Edin.

“Teacher, is something good happening? You smile so much.”

“So. I think you waited longer for class to end than we did.”

Wizard students in the upper 2nd year class.

Among them, two female students approached and spoke to her.

“Huh? iced coffee. The afternoon is now completely empty, so I’m going to meet someone.”

Unlike Saela, she answers students kindly.

Basically, Lunalin is a kind and warm person.

There were only a few specific people, including Saela, who treated me coldly.

“Huh? man? Are you a man?”

“Wow, Teacher Lunarin, have you found a boy? Boys will cry when they hear it.”

The female students ask questions with sparkling eyes.

For women, other people’s love stories are an interesting topic.

Even more so if it is your very pretty and talented teacher!

“Hehehe, secret.”

Lunarin smiled and answered like that.

“Hey, it’s a guy!”

“Wow, is this really true? Who?”

The female students cackled out of curiosity, but Lunarin just gave a vague answer and left the room without giving an answer.

The students had the next class, so they couldn’t follow Lunarin.

Thanks to this, Lunalin was able to go to the general store completely alone.

“Hehe. What is Edin doing right now?”

We met again recently and asked him to join the academy.

All I could think about was Edin.

Why?

Of course, I definitely had a crush on him.

But that was just a human feeling, and it wasn’t such a deep feeling.

By getting away from Claude and becoming free?

Still looking calm?

Did you join the academy as suggested?

I don’t know.

Whatever it was, Edin’s face kept coming to mind these days.

That’s why she still headed to the general store to see him in person.

“I should congratulate you on finding the job.”

By making a plausible excuse.

And there was a man following behind her.

‘Teacher Lunalin… Where are you going with such a happy expression?’

That is, the elf who always criticizes her.

It was Saela.

While passing by after class, he happened to find Lunarin again.

But then I saw her smiling like a shy girl in love, something she never showed to herself.

‘beautiful.’

The sight was so dazzlingly beautiful that Saella was mesmerized without realizing it.

Where on earth have you been with a smile like that?

Curious, he began to follow Lunarin.

The reason he secretly followed behind was because he knew that if he spoke to him again, he would look at her with a straight face and try to leave the place in a hurry.

It was the result of a combination of not wanting to ruin that most beautiful smile and wanting to solve the question of where I was going.

‘I never thought I’d end up following a woman.’

Although his pride was greatly hurt, he still followed her with as much breath as he could.

She is an excellent wizard.

The moment you shed even the slightest trace of magical energy, you will be caught.

Saela followed her, concentrating on hiding her body and energy as if she had returned to her active duty days.

…To anyone who saw him, he looked like a stalker.

The good news is that there are very few people who can see through the hiding of an elf with incredible skills.

Even Lunalin, who was being followed, didn’t even notice.

Anyway, I followed along like that.

Before we knew it, Lunarin had arrived at the shopping district.

‘Shopping district? ‘What are you going to buy?’

I thought I would go into a dessert shop or at least a restaurant.

Isn’t it like suddenly entering a general store?

‘what? Are you going to do any requested activities today?’

As long as it does not affect the teacher’s schedule, it is possible to receive permission from the academy and engage in adventurer activities.

Basically, they are paying as much salary as they can because they hired excellent people, but the profit is a little small for those who were top adventurers.

There were also people who took the time to engage in adventure activities.

But Lunalin has never been like that since she became a teacher.

Why did I suddenly visit a general store?

Saella, curious, slowly approached the general store building.

And looking inside through the window.

“…!”

Lunarin was seen having a conversation with a human male.

And on her face, the beautiful smile I saw earlier.

There was a smile on his face that he never showed to Saella.
