Chapter 9: The Emperor’s Obsession

I decided to postpone buying women’s clothes.

I have no classes today, so I have to rot in the infirmary.

…I’m bored.

Click, click.

This was the moment when my past life, which was an expert at pen spinning, shined.

The luxurious fountain pen that was in the dimensional bag, which had everything, kept spinning without stopping.

I empathized with the fountain pen, which only spins in someone else’s hand with nothing to do.

Even though I’m strong enough to destroy everything when I go on a rampage, I’m defeated by money and spend my time like this.

Why doesn’t anything change even if I’m reincarnated…

Clack.

The fountain pen, which I missed the timing to spin, rolled on the floor towards the infirmary door.

I didn’t have to get up.

Arthur came in and picked up the fountain pen.

“Teacher, this…”

Arthur held out the fountain pen.

I received the pen and sat Arthur on the bed.

“Thank you, Arthur. Where are you hurt?”

Arthur sighed and pointed to his back.

The pure white uniform was gone, replaced by a blood-soaked, crimson uniform, which made me realize that this wasn’t the level of a student’s accident.

“How did you get hurt?”

I asked, taking off the glove on my left hand.

Other students would have to use magic and potions, but since Arthur knows the secret, I comfortably treated him with my hand.

While I was fetching another uniform, Arthur paused and then spoke.

“Do you remember those delinquents from before?”

I stopped rummaging through the closet and answered.

“Why, were they taking out their anger on you?”

Arthur nodded slightly and explained in detail about those bastards.

“Of course, I didn’t use the Holy Sword, but they were incomparably stronger than before they were treated by you.”

I brought Arthur a uniform and polished my cane, which was on the desk.

“How about we really kill them and bury them this time?”

Arthur stood up in surprise and said,

“Murder is…”

It’s frustrating that I can’t joke around him.

I pushed Arthur’s shoulder to make him sit down and said,

“It’s a joke.”

Arthur seemed relieved, patted his chest, and said,

“Please refrain from such jokes…”

Acting so innocent while having four harem members.

Tsk, as expected, if you have a good face, you’re in easy mode.

As I bit my lip to suppress my anger, Arthur looked up at me with concern and said.

“Teacher? Can you hear me?”

…Huff, yes!

It’s not his fault.

Let’s get over it in a fun, cool, and sexy way.

“I’m sorry, Arthur. I was lost in thought for a moment.”

I apologized to Arthur and whispered quietly in his ear.

“So, where are those delinquents?”

Arthur pondered for a long time and finally confessed.

“…In the gym storage room.”

Okay! I’ll raid them during lunch break!

“Eek, sh*t!”

Thud!

A fairly tall student rolled on the storage room floor.

“What, how did the teacher…?”

One of the delinquents who used a sword last time was noticeably confused.

Hmm…seeing that the guys next to him are a little different from the ones who were with him then, is he hanging out with stronger guys now, excluding the weaker ones?

Then the number of people who know about what happened back then would have decreased.

“…? Hey! Why are you scared?”

One of the newly joined delinquents shouted at the guy with the sword.

“…I had a dream about being beaten up by that person before.”

Haha, to dismiss it as a simple dream because there were no scars.

His head is too simple.

I slammed the door behind me with my cane.

Bang!

Even the guys who weren’t paying attention started looking this way.

Was the guy with the sword’s name John?

“John? Unfortunately, that dream seems to have been prophetic.”

“Iaaaaaagh!”

As soon as I finished speaking, I grabbed the hand of the student running towards me and broke it.

Then I turned the broken hand several times.

“How is it? Isn’t it similar to the dream?”

I slammed the head of the student who was panicking from his broken hand against the wall.

And a wonderful coat rack was complete!

I took off my coat and hung it on the student who had fainted with his head stuck in the wall, and also hung my cane on his leg.

“Now I’ll fight you with my body.”

I provoked the students while loosening my hands.

First, I grabbed the heads of the two guys running towards me and made them kiss with the sides of their heads.

Thud!

I caught the center of the fire magic that the student was shooting and returned it.

Bang!

I crushed the sword of the student who was swinging his sword with my hand.

In less than 30 seconds, all the students except John were down.

Easy.

John, perhaps experiencing PTSD from the students flying like leaves in autumn, planted his sword on the ground and started begging.

“I’m sorry… I won’t do it again…”

I went in front of John, crouched down, and grabbed his head.

“If you make this kind of group again, there will be no mercy.”

At that moment, water magic flew towards my mask.

From the amount of magic and the sophistication of the spell, it was magic of a different dimension from the students I had knocked out so far.

It was that bastard.

“Teacher~ I wonder if it’s okay to beat up the students like this?”

He even broke the locked door and came in.

I knocked John unconscious by hitting the back of his neck.

Right, I had to take care of that bastard someday.

I turned towards Ao and said.

“Ao, are you going to join too?”

Ao smiled and waved his hands.

“No way~ without even a weapon…”

“A mage doesn’t need a weapon.”

I cut off Ao’s words and pressed on.

Then Ao laughed again and shot magic.

“You have good intuition, huh?”

Countless spears made of water flew at me.

The way they reflected the surrounding environment made me believe they were tearing space and throwing it.

I grabbed a magic spear, reinforced it with my own magic power, and threw it back, breaking all the spears.

Then I kicked the ground, went in front of Ao, and was about to kick him when Ao whispered to me.

“I am the emperor of the Akio Empire, Akio De Quijote II.”

I stopped my kicking foot.

Emperor?

This is beyond my level.

Moreover, the Akio Empire has a military power similar to this country, according to the setting.

If I provoke him, a war that will last for years will ensue, unless Arthur steps in.

…F*ck.

“Pfft, you beat up the barons to a pulp, but you can’t hit me, the emperor?”

…Sigh.

I lowered my raised foot and said without any courtesy.

“How can I believe that?”

Then Ao slowly stroked my mask and said,

“Shall I show you?”

Ao grinned and grabbed my mask.

He’s probably trying to show me something by taking off my mask and making me look at it with my eyes.

“It’s okay.”

I removed the hand on my mask, threw it away, and said.

“…Aren’t you going to use honorifics?”

Ao hardened his face, bit his lip, and got angry.

“I’m pretty good at following the school rules that social status disappears inside the academy.”

Then Ao clicked his tongue and kicked my stomach with a shining foot.

“…!”

What, I have S+ Stamina, but it hurt quite a bit. Did he reinforce it with magic power?

“…I command you in the name of His Majesty. Show yourself to me barefaced.”

I’m dumbfounded, and my anger is through the roof. I want to kill him right now, but I don’t have the right to turn the setting of this novel into a battlefield.

It was too much to handle.

I touched my mask.

What will he do if I take it off now?

What kind of things will he do?

It’s too predictable, but it was an unavoidable outcome.

I carefully took off my mask.

As always, silver hair flowed down from the mask, covering the back of my neck.

“…Wow.”

Ao, who always acted calmly, was very surprised to see my face.

It’s understandable.

That bastard appeared in the latter half of the story, so he never met the Saintess.

He’ll just see a beautiful woman.

“This is surprising.”

Ao, with a dumbfounded expression, tried to touch my face.

I grabbed that unpleasant hand with my small hand and said.

“Please refrain from unnecessary contact.”

Then Ao said, grabbing my hair with a flushed face as if in ecstasy.

“Even your voice, wow! Everything became beautiful!”

He doesn’t understand.

Class is about to start soon, and there might be sick students waiting in the infirmary.

“Damn it, I told you to let go of my hair.”

I grabbed Ao’s hand, which was holding my hair, tightly and got angry.

“…Hmm~? That’s quite an arrogant attitude for someone whose weakness has been grasped.”

Sigh…

These NTR bastards always think the same way.

They grab a weakness and try to control people as they please.

“Please let go.”

But the problem is that the weakness is very big.

As I used honorifics, Ao seemed satisfied and let go of my hair, saying,

“Don’t even think about manipulating my memories. I can tell everything from the traces of magic power left in my head.”

 

“”

 

“Then bye~!”

I watched Ao walk to the classroom while smiling, and decided to seriously consider not killing and reviving students.

As soon as Ao disappeared, I quietly put on the plague doctor mask.

The growing body and the feeling of the body, the changing sensation of my throat, the rising gaze.

It was a sensation I always felt only when I woke up in the morning, but now I’m feeling it during lunchtime, damn it.

“…What should I do?”

I think I should seriously think about my future.

It was truly sad that I had no one to talk to at a time like this.

“Keuheup.”

The laughter won’t stop.

I vividly remember that situation.

The teacher’s body suddenly became smaller, and silver hair, shining like the stars in the night sky, came down.

And blue eyes, as clear as the autumn sky, looked up at me with contempt.

At that moment, I couldn’t help but describe it as beautiful.

There was nothing more beautiful in the collection I had gathered so far than that person.

Surprisingly, it was a face much more beautiful than the beauties I had gathered throughout my life with the power of the emperor.

It was impossible for such a face to be unknown, unless they suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

I wanted to know more about her.

I wanted to make her mine.

And I wanted to have a deeper relationship.

Just imagining it was ecstatic.

It seemed like that bastard Arthur didn’t know about her appearance yet.

If I take her and show her that appearance, what kind of expression will Arthur make?

“Keuk…Heuheuheut…”

A strange, different laughter from usual came out, but it felt good.

From now on, I should make a plan to make her mine.

I thought while setting fire to Arthur’s house.

Wow, it burns well.
