Meanwhile, Kirin had thrown away the cake she was eating and was running towards the academy’s alumni gate.

The words that special student Sophie said earlier kept ringing in my head, and I couldn’t sit back and eat cake as the pain grew bigger and bigger.

I know that Dean is tutoring Knightley. Because Kirin first knelt down and asked Dian.

However, I never thought that their relationship would develop in this direction in the process… !

I… I was too complacent… . If you become dull and lazy… . How stupid!

If what student Sophie said is true, what should I do… ?

It doesn’t work!

Kirrin, who arrived at the academy’s east gate in a dazed state, saw heavy trolls and dozens of guards being carried on two interconnected carts.

“Be careful! Move left slowly!”

In front of him, Dian was guiding the cart by moving both arms.

“Um, what is that… ?”

“Is the principal here? As you can see, it’s a troll. I caught something that appeared east of the Academy. If you use that guy’s blood, you can make a high-quality recovery potion.”

“If it’s east of the academy… Outside the east gate?”

Dian looked at Kirin with a strange expression as she asked an obvious question.

“That’s right.”

“I didn’t go for a private lesson with Nightree… ?”

“I went with Professor Waver and Knightley. After all, hunting also serves as a nightly practice of anti-horse fighting.”

“Really? Is that really true? Ha, thank goodness… .”

“What are you happy about? uh? Are you crying?”

At Dian’s words, Kirin hurriedly wiped her moistened eyes and smiled.

“It’s nothing… . I just like it… .”

“Good, right? We will use some of the healing potion made with that guy’s blood and send the rest to the second princess. For field personnel. Then, the second princess will look favorably on us and provide us with more support, and the principal will be able to keep his position… .”

Kirin stared at Dian, who was talking with excitement, with tearful eyes.

Student Sophie misunderstood… . I’m so glad… .

I thought as I looked at Kirrin, who seemed ready to shed tears at any moment.

Why are you doing that? And suddenly a garter belt and stockings?

Didn’t you always wear pants?

“Chief Professor!”

At that time, Magic Response Professor Orendi appeared out of thin air and landed next to me.

“The magic construction has been completed in the underground laboratory near the north gate.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course. Even if just one troll gets into trouble, we can easily stop him.”

“Good job.”

The troll captured this time is planned to be locked in an unused underground laboratory at the north gate.

Orendi has already placed various spells on it under my instructions, and the troll will be trapped there and donate blood regularly.

That could also be included in class as a type of practice.

Since ancient times, when hunting monsters, the by-products are valuable, and the blood of trolls in particular is very valuable, so there is no harm in learning how to handle them.

“Keep moving! Get rid of the kids in front!”

I led the guards and safely put the troll into the underground laboratory and called Professor Ismera.

“Wow?!”

Professor Ismera, seeing the troll who had not yet woken up, gasped in horror.

“What… What is that?!”

“It’s a troll.”

“I know it’s a troll, but why is it in the academy?!”

“I caught it. I’m going to make a recovery potion. Professor, you know the benefits of troll blood, right? That’s why.”

When I explained how to use trolls, Professor Ismera looked disgusted and shook his head violently.

“You can’t do something like that!”

Normally, he would have laughed and said things around, but it seems like my plan was quite a shock.

“No problem, Professor Ismera. It’s a good thing for many people. Except that troll. But trolls aren’t people.”

“But he’s alive… .”

They range from vegetarianism to philanthropy and conservationism.

“Okay, there is a manufacturing subject in the theory department, right? Also include it as an exercise. Our combat department will support controlling trolls.”

“What do you think, principal?”

Ismera, knowing full well that there would be no use in telling me any more, turned to Kirrin.

“Dian caught it, so let’s do what Dian says.”

Ismera, who was speechless, looked at me with a questioning look and I shrugged my shoulders, putting off Ismera’s outfit.

“Do whatever you want. However, if a problem arises, you two must take responsibility.”

“Sure, whatever. So Professor Ismera also agreed?”

“I don’t agree, but since the principal and chief combat officer say so, I have no choice but to follow. I will make this clear.”

“Sure.”

That elf bitch… .

After that, it was the same as usual.

After scolding the bullies in the first graduation class, Hindrasta has adapted well without causing much trouble.

If you run away without being able to return to the main body, Linus will chase you, so it’s best to lie flat on the ground.

Of course, Linus won’t come. I’m busy taking care of my child.

Still, I received another letter from him a few days ago. It was an invitation.

Now that outsiders can enter the house, please let us know the date when they can come as soon as possible.

I thought this weekend would be appropriate, so I responded like that.

I told Olycia to go out into town and look for some suitable gifts to bring home to the new baby.

I want to choose it myself, but I’m so busy that I need time to go downtown.

But I wonder if you invited Lormane as well. Since he is the general secretary of the church, it may be difficult to find time.

Lormane… I wish you didn’t come. There are various reasons… .

Lormane is really… .

When memories related to him came to mind, I trembled and quickly shook them off.

I guess I’ll have to go on campus patrol. If I sit still, I will keep thinking about it.

I picked up the wooden sword for practice, left the teaching building, and walked around the school.

“Hello, Senior Professor… .”

The students who encountered me greeted me in hushed voices and hesitantly stepped aside.

That’s strange. In the past, people would come and make a lot of noise, but why are they like this today?

“Heek?!”

Another student even ran away as if he had seen something unclean. Does this have a strange atmosphere?

“You there! This way!”

I pointed out a student who made eye contact with me and avoided eye contact.

“Come quickly, quickly.”

“I didn’t do anything… .”

“It was your fault for avoiding my eyes.”

As the student approached, he put the wooden practice sword over his shoulder and asked.

“What’s going on these days? Why is everyone avoiding me?”

“Nothing happened… .”

“This guy? Don’t you speak straight?”

“Nothing really happened!”

The student ran away, raising the end of his words like a scream. Looks like something is going on.

Should I ask Knightley, a fellow student?

I don’t even have any expectations from Hindrastar in the first place.

Unlike Knightley, that guy is incredibly hostile towards me, so I’m sure he knows but pretends not to know.

Let’s go to Knightley as well.

# # # # #

Meanwhile, Knightley was surrounded by followers.

“Knightley. You heard it too, right? ‘That rumor’.”

The rumor is the ‘Dianne-Knightley scandal’, which is the hottest topic among academy students right now.

The young, talented, handsome and witty head professor is the head of the academy and is in a relationship with a pretty girl with good pedigree.

Who on earth wouldn’t jump on the bandwagon of this rumor?

However, this is a rumor that should be overturned by the Academy a long time ago, but it is surprisingly quiet.

That’s because most of the students who distribute and consume rumors are whispering and secretly spreading the word.

Professor Dian was the head professor of combat, and there had been rumors for a long time that he was a secret prince, a nobleman who hid his power, etc., so there were aspects that were difficult to mess with.

And in the case of Knightley, she already has a cold personality and is the daughter of the great noble Tolus family, so regular students can’t even talk to her.

For this reason, only followers who mistakenly believe they are close to Knightley have the courage to mention it to her.

“What kind of rumor is this?”

Knightley, whose expression and words would normally mean ‘Get the fuck out of here’ asked his followers in a somewhat gentle manner today.

“Well, why… Senior Combat Professor… I called you to the professor’s office and forced you to do something bad… .”

The story of ‘just the two of us went out to the Academy’s alumni’ has now branched out into the absurd direction of ‘we were raped in the professor’s office’.

Hindra Star’s troubles, which started with ‘I don’t know because I’m a transfer student’, have ended up here.

Knightley snorted after hearing that.

“I have never been forced to do anything.”

“What is there?”

“It does exist. But that’s a secret between me and the professor. There’s no need for you guys to know either.”

“Then… Is it really true that you’re dating a professor? ?!”

“I told you, right? Things you don’t need to know.”

The private lessons were confidential, so I didn’t lie.

Since we aren’t dating, I didn’t say we were dating.

“Oh my god… .”

The followers covered their mouths and looked at each other.

A satisfied smile appeared on Knightley’s lips as he saw this.

I was already worried because Professor Dian’s popularity within the academy had skyrocketed these days.

In addition, I thought Professor Dian’s attention would be focused on that as an outstanding student with special skills was selected.

Suddenly, it got better as they started spreading ridiculous rumors.

If I just keep my mouth shut, everyone will automatically tie Professor Dian and me together, right?

I don’t know what kind of crazy person the person who first spread the rumor was, but I have to be thankful anyway.

Professor Dian is mine. My own personal professor. I can’t give it to anyone… .

“Hey, Knightley! Let’s ask something!”

At that time, Professor Dian called out to Knightley from the other side.
