CH 155

: test (1)

The Academy teachers gathered with serious faces waiting for someone.

"Sir Silver hasn't come yet?"

"Huh I'm not a man to be late.

"You seem to be in a bad mood lately. Maybe you are sick?"

"Someone who says it hurts when it hurts."

"I can't even contact you."

Silver Blanc.

As the homeroom teacher of Phoenix Academy's elementary school, he was usually cheerful and healthy.

He was close with other teachers, but it was natural for everyone to be worried about his sudden absence from work.

"Does anyone know the house? After the academy, Mr. Yoo and Mr. Silver often had drinks."

"I drank alcohol a lot, but I don't know the house. I don't drink until I'm drunk in the first place.

Wizards don't drink too much.

Because alcohol messes up the realm of memory. Because the memory of a wizard is very important, it was on the side not to do anything that burdened him.

Because of that, even if we had a drink, it was only at the level where we felt better.

Then the door opened and a little boy, Jamie, came in rubbing his eyes.

"Ahhh~ Good morning everyone."

Jamie rubbed her sleepy eyes and trudged to her seat.

One of the teachers called him.

"Master Jamie. Did you ever see Mr. Silver yesterday?"

"Are you the silver teacher?"

Jamie doesn't remember every teacher, but Silver does.

It was because I had spoken to him a few times when he just came to the academy. So there was a perception that he was a kind person.

no. I didn't see it."

"Well. He couldn't have been with Jamie.

"What's going on?"

One of the teachers explained the self-defense.

"Can't you contact me?"

Yeah. I tried it before, but you won't accept it."

It was Sophia, an impressive schoolgirl with wavy blue hair. She sighed softly and continued.

"Isn't that what happened?"

"It won't happen. You must be very tired."

"Do you have a class today, Mr. Silver?"

"Fortunately, not today."

"Then, Sophia, please temporarily enter the beta class today only."

Yes Yes.

Although they were worried about Silver's absence from work, the academy was a job for them, so they had an obligation to fill the vacancy quickly.

"What are you all gathering for?"

The back door opened and the javelin entered.

He approached the teachers with a smile in good condition even in the morning.

The teacher who explained it to Jamie, this time also explained it to Javelin.

"Where is Mr. Silver sick?"

I do not know.

"I will visit you. You can find the address."

Since it was a Javelin who served as dean for a while, it was not difficult to find the addresses of the teachers.

"As expected, the dean! Reassuring!"

"It's okay, sir!"

When the javelin solved a problem that no one had been able to solve in one shot, everyone cheered the javelin.

"Boo, why are you all like this? Of course it is."

"It's been an hour since Javelin-sensei is leaving."

"I can go to class comfortably."

Javelin was a reliable man not only for his students, but also for his teachers.

Every time Jamie saw a javelin, he thought he was 'a person who was difficult to understand,' but he also knew that it would be difficult to give such trust to someone else.

So, he was a great person in many ways.

"Anyway, I'll let you know after I go."

As if the problem had been resolved, Jamie headed to his seat.

I put down my bag and sat down. It was time to untie half of the stuffy tie and lean back on the chair.

The door opened with a knock, and Anne entered the classroom and looked around.

He seemed to find his place.

"Anne. It's here.

Ah! Good morning.

Anne greeted the other teachers as well, and walked towards Jamie's seat.

came.

okay.

Yesterday, I met Anne on the way to summer and talked a lot, and I told her to come to the office this morning.

Jamie looked into Anne's face.

The 10-year-old girl had her mouth shut as if she was a little nervous, but her eyes were full of energy.

It was his eyes that were determined in many ways to come here.

Jamie nodded with a grin.

"Come to the teacher's dormitory after class today."

"Sue, your dorm? I don't know where."

"Lennon will know."

" Lennon?"

okay. Lennon is also going to take classes with you."

Ann's expression wrinkled at those words.

I knew why without even asking.

Just yesterday, I heard from Anne what she thought of Lennon.

Why? Any complaints?"

"It's not ."

Anne muttered.

I would have been disappointed if I had only heard the timid, trembling voice.

Jamie saw a bit of anger on Anne's face. Envy and jealousy towards Lennon are not resolved in just one day.

Anne still feels a strong sense of inferiority towards Lennon.

So he gave Lennon a chance.

I'm a little sorry for Lennon, but it was because he wanted his presence to be a catalyst for Anne.

"Well then. Come to my house with Lennon today. And know this."

"What?"

"You two are not yet my disciples. Only when you pass my test will you be able to become a disciple."

Test ."

"So, work hard. It could be you, or it could be Lennon. Both may remain, but conversely, both may fall."

Jamie could hear Anne swallowing her saliva.

"Please do not miss this opportunity."

"Hey, I'll do my best!"

Ann answered with all her might, and the teachers all looked at her in unison. Then Anne quickly covered her mouth with both hands and bowed her head.

It was quite remarkable to see the white skin glowing red.

Jamie smiled slightly and waved to Anne.

"Stop going and get ready for class."

Yeah. See you later."

Anne nodded and walked out of the classroom.

It seems that he had instilled too much enthusiasm into a child who was full of motivation in the first place, but he did not have any regrets.

'Anne needs stimulation.'

In order to somehow raise the lack of magical talent, you have to touch the emotional part as well.

Perhaps, Lennon might be Kiyeon to her.

I would never think so.

"Are you planning on taking that child as a disciple?"

It's a surprise!

Jamie almost fell backwards at Kennyak's sudden jump from behind.

This gloomy man appeared without a sign and was right next to him.

"Please show up with a little bit of flair, buddy! I thought my heart was going to fall."

"I'm sorry about that. It seemed like he was somewhere else, so he looked at me calmly."

" But what's going on?"

"I guess I didn't hear it properly because I was surprised. I asked if you would like to have Anne as a disciple."

Jamie felt uncomfortable with Kennyak raising her horse.

This is because the time he started speaking up was after the first magic circle class was over.

I know he respects me, but I was more comfortable dealing with arrogance.

"I am still thinking about it."

"Are you interested?"

"Because I am interested, I am debating whether or not to accept him as a disciple. Why?"

Kennyak stared at Jamie, then slowly lowered his head and spoke quietly in his ear.

"Don't pay attention."

"I think you should explain in detail what that means ."

"Don't ask. Just keep my words in mind."

Kennyak said, turning his head back to normal.

" I don't want to see a big talent dwindle prematurely. Don't listen to me."

With those words, Kennyak also left the classroom.

Jamie looked at where he left and frowned.

'what?'

Doesn't that mean there's something dangerous about Anne?

Anne is a genius girl born with the talent of a scholar, but her family was quite ordinary.

I did a little research on what he was doing before coming to the academy, but he grew up just like any other child. That said, there was no problem.

So Kennyak's warning didn't make sense.

'More than anything When we talked about Siegfried and Anne, I didn't hear anything else.'

Of course, Siegfried is the dean of the academy, but he may not have known that he was out of the magic world for an overwhelming amount of time.

I'll look into this separately later.

Ding~ Dong~ Dang~ Dong~

The class bell rang.

I decided to think about this later, and Jamie got up with her textbooks.

* * *

When Anne had just returned to class, she just ran into Lennon, who was late to school, at the entrance.

The two stare at each other without a word.

huh!

huh!

They snorted at each other and went into the class and headed to their respective seats.

Anne was heartbroken.

Looking back, Lennon was also staring at him terrifyingly. After a brief snowball fight, Lennon snorted again and looked ahead.

'why?'

Anne didn't quite understand.

Lennon's skills were not lacking even if he was already a single wizard. In addition, his family, the Simon family, was an excellent magician from generation to generation.

In particular, his father is a magician of Hongryeon, one of the apex of the magic world. Having such a great father, why did you ask Jamie to teach you?

I thought I had more.

'I will never lose.'

Although we are far behind now, we will grit our teeth and learn. And if you pass the test, you will become Jamie's official apprentice.

It was Anne who had been persistent in her studies since she was young.

Although he is still young, he thought that there was nothing he could not do because he had poison.

Anne prepared for class without even realizing that Lennon was thinking the same thing.

Then I saw the pin next to me.

Finn's complexion was bad. His eyes were slightly opened and he looked weak.

"Fin, are you okay? Where are you sick?"

I'm fine.

Finn forced a smile.

"Is it because the weather is cold It looks like you've been sick for a while.

Finn clenched his chin and lowered his head helplessly.

It was a lively Finn just yesterday. I was worried because in just one day, a person would turn like a half-corpse.

"Are you really okay?"

"It's really okay. after Don't worry, you'll be back as usual if you drink some of this.

With that said, Finn takes Apophis X out of her bag.

Anne stopped her from trying to open the lid.

"Nutrition supplements are not good for the body if you drink them blindly."

OK. It's a good drug.

"You drink four or five bottles of this a day."

"Even if it's okay!"

Finn groaned and shook Ann's hand away.

When Anne looked at Finn with a bewildered look, Finn's face became startled as if he had recognized the mistake.

"Mi, sorry. It's really good, so don't worry.

" Huh.

Anne rubbed her hands and nodded.

Meanwhile, Finn opened the lid and shoved Apophis X into his mouth.

Do I really need to dry it?

Ann was concerned about Finn's condition, but the appearance she had just seen made her stop.

The paper rang.

Reluctantly, Anne looked away from him and opened the textbook.
