Just by chance, Ruid secretly followed Klein, thinking of the possibility that he may have been framed by a wrong person.
What I saw there was the disgusting reality of Klein Minerva.
After deliberately expelling talented commoners from the academy, they exploited their labor by approaching them as if they were patronizing, and even
used countless gaslighting methods such as ‘You have no skills’.
He committed such a vicious act, and instead of realizing his mistake, he threatened Ella, who created the perfect magic circle.
Ruid was very angry. And, I sympathized.
Although I don’t have a very kind personality, I couldn’t pretend not to see the misfortune happening right in front of me.
So I suggested it. A job as an assistant teacher that I had no intention of taking.
“You’re using me as a teaching assistant?”
Ella opened her eyes wide.
“huh. All you have to do is prepare for classes that happen about once a month and do the annoying things for you. The rest is free to study or do whatever else you want. The compensation is... room and board, sometimes I teach you magic, and one gold coin.”
“Yes, old?! Now, just a moment, just a moment.”
“sorry. I don’t know what the average is. “10 gold?”
Ella was embarrassed.
I finally realized that this was reality and not a dream, but I couldn’t come to my senses easily.
Yeah, it was so unrealistic.
“I... I have no talent. “You will regret it.”
Ruid spoke as if he was genuinely puzzled.
“You don’t have any talent? No, you have talent.”
“Well, that can’t be possible.”
Ruid shook his head resolutely.
“You have talent. He’s the most genius person I’ve ever seen. “In fact, it’s hard to believe that a talented person like you is stuck in a place like that.”
Luid’s transparent eyes stared at Ella.
Everything I just said was sincere.
Ella is not a character from the original work.
However, I felt it the first time I saw it.
‘He has the potential to become a great wizard.’
The level is not high right now.
However, the amount of magic potential inside... was at a level that made no sense.
He was much better than Hercy.
‘This is absurd. He’s just that kind of guy...’
Ruid looked at Ella’s body covered in wounds with low-pitched eyes.
First, I took out the wand from my pocket.
Healing magic was cast on Ella. Although it was simply a spell to speed up natural recovery, it was effective for simple wounds like this.
“Ah...”
Ella slightly opened her mouth as she felt the fullness of magical energy filling her entire body.
What was even more unrealistic than that was Ruid’s words, ‘You have talent.’
It couldn’t be that way, it couldn’t be that way, but Ruid’s tone was so clear that I felt a strange sense of trust.
“...it will probably only disappoint you.”
However, I wasn’t stupid enough to miss an opportunity that may never come again.
I smiled brightly.
“Ha, but I can work hard. Really. “I’ll do my best.”
Ruid looked up at Ella.
“You are mistaken.”
“yes?”
“You have no choice. “As long as you were picked up by me, you are mine.”
**
Ella was tall.
He looked like he was around 170cm, but if you looked at him, you could feel that he was ‘superior’. It’s a feeling that isn’t easily seen by commoners.
If she had been born in this life, she would have been a model or an idol.
Rather, I didn’t like that. The eye level is too mismatched.
I opened my eyes and turned the doorknob.
“This is my room. “This is where you will work from now on.”
“Yes, yes.”
Ella still looked dazed.
When I looked at the professor’s office, my pupils shook.
“Really... Professor, you are.”
“Then do you think I lied?”
“Well, that’s not it. Uh...”
Ella glanced at Ruid.
It was only a short time, but I knew I had been scanned.
Probably ‘the kid said he was a professor, so I honestly didn’t believe him.’ Wouldn’t you like to say the same thing?
In the past, it would have been a seizure button, but now Ruid didn’t care.
‘He’s the best.’
This is because I came here looking at a hopeless(?) future. It’s better to live like a child than to do that.
“...Anyway, you can work at the desk over there.”
“But...”
Ella looked at Ruid’s notice.
A desk made from the highest quality wood.
The design was of high quality, so it was too much for me to sit on.
Above all, it was written on the nameplate.
[Professor Emeritus – Lloyd Christopher Windsor]
I couldn’t sit in a position like that.
But Ruid took Ella’s hesitation in a different way.
‘hmm. ‘I’m a wizard, so I guess I need attack and defense.’
‘Human experimentation...?’
“Hmm... it’s bigger than I thought.”
“S-sorry.”
“Well, that’s okay. “It’s enough as long as it’s soft.”
Ruid lay down in Ella’s arms.
“...!”
He hugged my waist and snuggled into me. Soon, a quiet breathing sound was heard. He fell asleep.
“...?!?!”
Ella made an indescribable expression.
I couldn’t even lift a finger and couldn’t even breathe due to my rigid posture.

Amelia and Hercy walked side by side. Hersi briefly told us what had happened earlier.
“Is it true that something like that happened?”
Hercy felt sorry for no reason.
“sorry.”
“no. There is no need for Hersy to be sorry. However,...it’s a puzzling thing.”
Amelia, who heard the story, did not get angry.
I felt even more puzzled.
The Ruid she knows only ‘reacts’.
Usually I just observe, but when the other person says something, I only move. Either a bad reaction or a good reaction.
I wasn’t the type of kid who would go out of his way to do something like that, whether it was cheating or anything else.
“What did Ruid’s expression look like?”
“Well, basically he looked sleepy... but it felt unpleasant. Would it be okay?”
Amelia thought she would have probably forgotten by now.
‘I must have been sensitive because I woke up from sleep.’
I was a little relieved when it was concluded that Ruid was okay. Rather, I was worried about Hercy.
“Hersi, are you okay?”
“yes?”
“...Hersi was hoping that the relationship between the families would improve last time.”
Hercy said firmly.
“I don’t want to become friends with someone who is doing something unscrupulous and stealing someone else’s hard work.”
“Well, I see.”
Amelia smiled awkwardly at the cold wind blowing response.
“...however.”
“yes.”
“There’s something a little puzzling about it.”
Hercy said with an uncomfortable expression.
“Actually, I went to ask.”
“To him?”
“yes. Copying means there is a victim, and I thought it was my responsibility to fix it. But...”
Hercy swallowed.
The image of Klein lying on the bed kept coming to mind.
“I was sleeping. Not just sleeping like a normal person, but like a dead person. “No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t wake up.”
As soon as Hercy arrived at the mansion, she witnessed the priests using the dragon.
I heard that Klein was found collapsed and the deacon, who sensed something was strange, asked the church for help.
There was a problem. The problem was that there was no problem. However, there was no doubt that there was something wrong with Klein, who was sleeping as if he were dead.
“What is that?”
“Hmm. well. I do not know.”
Hercy sighed.
“Time will tell. Just sleep comfortably, man.”
Before they knew it, the two had arrived at Ruid’s professor’s office.
Hersy brought a packed lunch as an apology, so we could eat it together.
The fox told me about Ruid’s location.
smart.
After a brief knock, the door slowly opened.
however.
“...!”
Two people see something they shouldn’t.
Ruid is cute as always.
He was sleeping in the arms of a woman he had never seen before.
Hersi lost his temper for a moment and became a fool.
Amelia....
pops.
When I saw my younger brother sleeping with an outsider, I felt like something in my head was broken.
