As soon as I was summoned, I spoke urgently, but was left speechless by the peaceful atmosphere.
“I have work to do. But it’s not urgent.”
“Phew… I thought something had happened again and came over right away.”
“I guess so..”
Although I looked extremely nervous, Professor Scarlett lowered her voice and went back to looking outside.
So, just hearing the clatter without saying anything didn’t feel too bad.
It felt quite awkward when I first encountered this silence, but now I’m used to it and feel comfortable.
I didn’t want to break the mood, but I decided to ask anyway.
“Professor, is there a reason you called me?”
“…You are now my assistant. It’s natural for you to help me as the class progresses.”
“Ah.. That’s right.”
Now, I see that there was a time when I had to take an exam to enter the Royal Academy and take the professor’s classes.
I was surprised that it was a teaching assistant exam and not a student class, but anyway, I was always able to sit next to the professor.
“Oh.. I don’t think I’m going to the academy today..”
“Today. There is an outdoor evaluation in Gray Forest. It’s hard for me to watch all the students by myself, so I need your help.”
“I see!”
It felt good to know that they needed me.
I can’t believe I get to work like a teaching assistant like this instead of just cleaning up documents and things like my own blood.
It was clear that I had become someone the professor could trust.
-Hey!
“Arrived. Master.”
“Get off.”
“Yes.”
I got off right away, following the professor.
The professor, who still insisted on wearing a Gothic loli costume, looked like a vampire to anyone.
“Jageun. You look quite good.”
“Ah! Master!”
Master Alfredo, the professor’s butler.
Should I say that he is the only man I respect?
After coming into contact with many beautiful women due to my teacher’s teachings, I had a lot of work to do in bed.
“I trained hard according to my teacher’s wishes!”
“It seems like you really intend to rise to the same level as your master.”
“I am Park Ja-geun. Be sure to keep your words. I will live with you for a long time, professor.”
“It’s great to see you working hard.”
Master smiled happily as he saw me improving day by day.
I remembered my teacher’s request to be strong and not leave the professor alone.
“Alfredo. Also, you two should stop talking nonsense and guard the carriage. I will go to class with Jageun.”
“Yes, master.”
So Professor Scarlett didn’t really like seeing me and Master together.
Also, it seems like an existence like Alfred is continuing.
Our kind and kind Professor Scarlett.
Because of that feeling, I had no choice but to become stronger.
“Jageun, follow me.”
“Yes. Assistant Professor Park Ja-geun is coming!”
Such affectionate feelings made me want to stay by her side and protect her forever.
“Professor. professor. After the outdoor class, is today’s class over?”
“…”
The professor looked back at me and continued walking.
“Okay. When I’m done, I’ll go right back to my mansion.”
“Then you can receive compensation after the outdoor evaluation is completed?”
“…When you’re done, do whatever you want.”
“Okay~”
I didn’t even say what the reward was, but the professor already knew.
Since he knew me without even saying a word, it seemed like he was definitely getting closer to the professor.
After laughing and walking along the forest path for a while, we arrived at the entrance to the lush forest.
“Professor Scarlett is coming. Everyone be quiet.”
People wearing high-quality academy uniforms were gathered together and waiting for the professor.
“No one was left out. Well, I’ll tell you again before the outdoor evaluation. As written in the post, hunt the demonic beasts that live inside the forest. It takes 3 hours to collect a certain amount of magic points and return to the entrance.”
“”Okay! Professor!””
“Please show your skills as much as possible. Then let’s go.”
“”Yes!””
Like some kind of ninja, all the academy students disappeared.
As expected, the students enrolled were high-level nobles and powerful people living in each region, so they had excellent skills.
“Jageun.”
“Yes, Professor.”
“I hope students check the forest to make sure they don’t get hurt. Enf and Bearty are the type to push themselves too hard sometimes. Focusing on them.”
As expected, professor.
The reason he summoned me was none other than the students he was teaching.
Since it was an outdoor practice, not a theory, there were many variables, so they needed me.
“Okay.”
Master said that the power to protect everyone is more difficult than the power to kill someone.
So the professor thought highly of me and summoned me.
‘Professor, I will live up to your expectations!’
I immediately summoned two spirits and entered the forest entrance.
-Blue dragon! Hyeonmu! got it?!
“Yes! Leave it to me! If the students are in danger, I will immediately throw a recovery orb at them!”
“Oooh… It’s always fun to watch.”
Hyeonmu and Cheongryong disappeared in a different direction from me.
It felt like I was alone for the first time in a long time.
“Anyway.. where am I?”
Everything else is good, but I’ve lost my way.
Now I see this forest… It was my first experience.
“Need help?”
“Aphrodite.”
Now I see that I am not alone.
I woke up to the beautiful voice coming from inside my pocket.
“You seem to be wandering in the forest right now.”
“That’s right..that’s right.”
“Good. Take me out.”
As she said, I took out my phone.
“We will send a monitoring device into the sky to check the situation of the creatures and the forest.”
“Ah! Is it like a surveillance camera?”
“Similar but different.”
“Anyway, please do it right away.”
The phone antenna was pulled out and flew into the sky.
And then I felt it floating, floating and then causing waves in all directions.
“The level of civilization here is quite low. Savage creatures have established themselves in their own territory.”
Aphrodite’s words made me wonder if there were demonic beasts running around in the forest.
In that case, I thought it would be a good idea to focus only on the risk areas.
“Among the barbaric creatures… the place where they have the widest area would be the most dangerous… Where is that?”
“Walk about 5,000 steps to the place you see in front of you now.”
“Perhaps… the student who went there…”
“There are two people in front of Park Ja-geun. Judging by their movements, the probability that both of them were aware of the presence in that area is more than 73.3%.”
“Oh my.. It looks like they are targeting that witch. Let’s go right away. ”
It seemed like the two students were planning to get full marks by catching big game.
I won’t be directly involved in the evaluation, but I moved right away because something serious could happen while hunting the demon beast.
I ran through the forest for a while.
Of course, since this could interfere with the evaluation, I used stealth and presence removal magic to find them.
“I think it’s like this…”
The atmosphere of the forest was quite different from the previous entrance.
There are a lot of fallen and dead trees.
Above all, it smelled like something was rotten.
“Aphrodite. Where are those two?”
“You just have to go a little further inside. The two will soon come into contact with a giant creature.”
Fortunately, I found it without getting lost.
It is possible to track students using blood magic, but should we say that humans are best suited to using tools?
It was really easy to leave it to Aphrodite and I was able to find it quickly.
“Goal confirmed.”
“Of course. There it is.”
The two students were students who showed quite a bit of talent.
One of them was the female student named Bearty that the professor had mentioned.
I saw her while I was sorting out documents the other day. I think she was the daughter of a Viscount from the North Frost Plains. She was a pretty strong-looking female student.
The first time I saw her, she created a two-handed ax made of red blood.
“I will kill you in one blow with the blood magic weapon the professor taught me.”
And behind the student named Bearty, a female student was seen pulling out an arrow with red blood.
It was attached to the large crossbow he was holding.
“Bearty. I’ll ask you in front~”
Is it a combination of a barbaric female warrior and a female hunter?
It seemed like they had formed a party that looked after both the front and the back.
Obviously, there was no mention of catching the demon beast alone, so it seemed like the plan was made from the beginning to be a two-person team.
-thud! thud! thud! Kurrrr!
“It came out over there.”
“This… is a very large wild boar beast, just like I heard.”
The tusks are so grotesquely thick and protruding that they look like a charging tank.
Of course, that’s it, but the body size of that wild boar beast was so large that the trees around it looked small.
“The creature called the demon beast appears to be about a level 4 pollutant.”
Aphrodite measured the power of the demonic beast based on the pollutant.
Level 4 is one level lower than the pollutant we encountered last time at the factory.
Is it really possible for the two of us?
I decided to watch it once.
“Ha!!!”
Bearty, a savage female student, screamed and cheered.
The pig demon cowered a little, but then shook its body, overcame the sound of cheers, and raised its front paws to scratch the ground.
“Bearty! Coming!”
“Ask them to come!”
The crossbow student behind her aimed at the guy between the eyes and shot red arrows.
-Too-duk!
“Sniff! Keueueu!!”
The pig beast rushed forward, was hit by an arrow, and shook its head.
But the rush continued without stopping.
“Bearty! damage! That guy is fine even after being hit by a blood poison arrow!”
-thud! Thump thump!
As the pig demon rushed forward, the dust and surrounding trees were all shattered and fragments flew.
Even though there were quite a lot of large trees, it was a pig-horseman pushing over all of them and running around like it was some kind of plain.
The female students are avoiding the demon beast running around like crazy.
It was a female hunter who landed on a dead tree that looked weak on the ground.
-Rust!
“Huh!!”
“Maze! damage! Let’s go there this time!”
“Sigh! Grump! I got my ankle caught in a broken tree..!”
“What!? Damn it!”
Bearty ran in front of the hunter girl, spitting out harsh words uncharacteristic of a nobleman’s daughter.
“Big!”
“You can’t run at me!”
-Kwasik!
Running like a wild boar, he struck the pig’s side with a shoulder strike and a two-handed axe.
“Sniff..!”
“Oh! Wow!”
However, the pig beast with bloodshot red eyes threw Bearty backwards and rushed at the female hunter he had set as his target.
“Ugh…! I pulled it out! Ah..!”
She pulled her foot out of the rotten tree, but the magical beast pig was already in front of her.
-bang!
“Ugh..mi..mirooo!!”
The two collide.
A female student named Miro flew into the sky along with the tree and the breakaway pieces and soon fell in front of the fallen Bearty.
-Tuk…
“Cough..run away..K..”
Miro, a female hunter who was bloodied by a single collision, fell to the floor, vomiting blood.
“Well..you can’t do that! We promised to catch him together! stand up! Maze!”
“I..I think..it’s going to be hard..my body can’t move..”
A huge shadow began to appear over the maze student who was covered in blood.
“Ah..no! damage! maze! Maze!!”
“Queu! Haaaa!!!”
The magical beast uses its huge tusks and nose to strike down the maze student on the floor.
“No way!!!”
-Whoop! bang!!!
This time, huge waves and dust spread in all directions.
“Damn it! Damn it! Pig! I can’t forgive you!!”
When his motivation died, Bearty lost his senses and developed a cold aura.
He began creating red ice manipulations around himself.
A tremendous chill spread through her center as she swung her huge two-handed axe.
“Haaa!!”
-Kwasik!
Pieces of ice fluttered from the pig’s skin.
“Kkkk..”
However, the beast pig’s skin was only slightly frozen and there were no injuries at all.
“This…I can’t believe it…my attacks don’t work at all…”
The Pig Beast lifted his head from the floor and looked at Bearty, who was engulfed in despair.
“Ah..”
This time, a huge shadow appeared on Student Bearty.
The front hoof of the heavy and huge pig beast strikes towards her head.
-Whoop! bang!
“Quaaaa!!”
The two-handed ax flew away, and student Bearty’s body also flew away, as did the nearby breakaway pieces.
“Ugh..”
She blocked the blow with an axe, but the bones in both her arms and ankles were shattered and she was unable to get up.
“Kk..sniff..sniff..”
Seeing that she was alive, the pig beast slowly approached her again.
When the Demon Beast Pig sees the helpless Bearty student, it immediately opens its mouth and tries to eat him whole.
“Kk..is it the end..”
Bearty closes his eyes.
“Queeeeng!!!”
“Uh..”
As she sensed her own death, her eyes opened to the sound of the pig beast’s groaning rather than the sound of her own body being chewed.
“If you fight like that, you will be given a supplementary class as a result of a low evaluation. Student Bearty.”
“You are Professor Scarlett’s… assistant.”
At Bearty’s words, I created a two-handed ax that looked exactly like hers and held it with my hands.
“From now on, I will deal with the magical beast with the same strength as the Bay student. Understand what you are lacking.”
