Professor is nothing special.
Maybe being a professor was my calling.
I thought I didn’t have the talent to teach someone, but starting with Charle and teaching several knights, I might
really have a talent.
Is it thanks to that?
While listening to the students’ dying sounds on the field, I wore a satisfied expression.
Originally, you have to scream when you train, so that’s how training works.
“Hu, Ahhhhh!? Die, I’m really going to die like this…!”
“Cra, crazy. It’s a swordsmanship class…! Why are we doing physical training?!”
“…Hup. Since we’re holding a sword and swinging it, it’s technically a swordsmanship class…Ugh?! I’m dying!”
“If hitting a rock up and down with a sword until you die is helpful, I would have done only that all my life! In the
first place, why are the numbers increasing, professor…?!”
I sat on the bench and looked at the students who were diligently following my instructions with satisfaction.
If we look at the results after a little time, all the complaints will be a thing of the past.
All the people I teach had the same reaction at first.
Well, after a while, there will be many people who will train on their own because the results are certain.
Honestly, there’s nothing more effective than gaining practical experience and swinging a sword on the battlefield,
but now is a peaceful time.
So there’s no need to kill.
It’s right to end it at this level.
I twisted one corner of my mouth and laughed.
Therefore, I can ignore their cursing to a certain extent.
It’s a minor reaction.
At first, Charle cursed at me, but she followed the training and became strong, and most of them became knights
who played a role on the battlefield.
My training method is not wrong.
It’s a training method that can make anyone strong.
Even if it’s so hard that you’ll die.
I said with a smile.
“A healthy mind resides in a healthy body. There’s nothing more important than a downswing in swordsmanship. So,
at first it was a hundred, but if you do well, it can be five hundred, and if you have time, it can be a thousand, my
little chicks.”
The students all had rotten expressions, but there was no one in this place who could confidently argue with me.
Kids, the professor is the rule and the power.
Although it’s a parachute through Leticia, isn’t it okay since no one has any complaints?
And the words are a bit exaggerated, five hundred, a thousand, but I also keep a reasonable line.
On top of that, where in the world is there a professor who takes care of students’ health?
The me who was cowering in front of Leticia and Charle a little while ago does not exist.
In short, I’m the boss here.
Kha.
This is the power and life of a professor.
I’m finally being rewarded for a life that ended only on the battlefield.
Although it’s unfair that my life in reality, where I worked hard to get into college, was blown away, I put it aside in
the back of my mind.
There’s nothing good about thinking about things that have already happened, so I have to find a way to return to
reality while enjoying my life as Charlotte as much as possible.
……Honestly, I don’t know if I need to go back since life here is much better.
Glancing.
Charlotte glanced at Leticia, who was sitting quietly in the distance, and secretly swallowed a sigh.
It was strange that she was being quiet, unlike her, but when I was still Damian, Leticia was not a woman with as
much playfulness as she is now.
So I was surprised when I first saw Leticia.
The sullen expression is the same as before, but the playful and sly personality was different from the Leticia I knew.
It was as if she was desperately hiding her true self, so I couldn’t say anything.
I can’t even ask.
It’s true that I made her lonely.
And Leticia has become a little too dangerous.
I turned my gaze away from the students and looked at Leticia with a troubled expression.
It’s strange to regret it now, but I think I should have given us enough time to break up.
But if I had, Leticia would have stopped me from leaving by any means.
At that time, that was the best for me.
It was the only choice that wouldn’t hurt both of us.
I didn’t mean to tell Leo, but he found out, and I didn’t want a tearful farewell in the first place.
The system also tried to send me back to Earth because all the quests were over, so there was nothing I could do.
Thinking about it again, the system is a son of a b*tch.
I looked at the empty space of the system, which has been quiet these days, and turned my head.
It’s nice that it’s quiet, but why am I so anxious?
It was even more so because there were no ridiculous quests that I usually gave.
I thought, looking up at the blue sky blankly.
Why was I summoned to this world again?
Simply because of Leticia’s love-disguised obsession?
It’s a strangely plausible statement, but would the system have called me back to this world just for that reason?
If so, shouldn’t they have not sent me to the real world in the first place?
The reason I went back then was because the system judged that I, who had cleared all the quests, no longer needed
to be in this world.
It’s not like the demons are rampaging and slaughtering humans like before, and we’ve signed a peace treaty with the
demons, so was there a need for me to come back?
Leticia and the demon I saw last time, honestly, I can find a reason if I try, but because of that?
That inflexible, meticulous system?
I glared at the place where the system might be with a suspicious look, but the system did not appear.
This is the same as before.
So you’re only going to show up when you have something to say?
I know it’s useless to resent the system that always unilaterally notifies and disappears, but I can’t help but complain.
It is neither given nor give.
Damned system.
If you were going to summon me back to this world, you shouldn’t have sent me back to Earth in the first place.
How dirty it feels to be given something and then taken away.
If that had happened, I would have been able to completely give up hope of returning to Earth, I wouldn’t have
changed genders to a woman, I wouldn’t have broken up with Leticia, I would have gotten married and lived a not-
bad life until I died.
…However, my condition at that time was not something I could say was good to break the hope of returning to Earth.
If I, who had been moving with the hope of a quest that would allow me to return to Earth, had heard the answer,
‘You can never return to Earth. So give up,’ I wouldn’t have been surprised if I had broken down.
In that sense, the system made a wise choice… my *ss.
You shouldn’t have made me possess someone in the first place, you system son of a b*tch.
I cursed the system, which didn’t show up today, to my heart’s content, and I came to my senses at the touch of
someone tapping my shoulder.
“Um, Professor…?”
“Huh? Who? Ah.”
Even for a moment, I couldn’t feel their presence.
Even if I’ve gotten weaker, not being able to feel a presence.
I calmed my surprised heart and turned my head with a grim expression, but when I confirmed the face of the person
who hit my shoulder, I hid my expression and smiled slyly.
“It’s Chloe. Class time is still left, but is there something you need?”
“…I was just resting, so my body feels stiff. Can I train with the others for the rest of the time?”
“Huh? It’s a class, not training… You can rest until the end of class like this? It’s about to end soon. Look, the kids
who have finished the class I told you about today are lying down and resting over there?”
“They are just them, Professor. I can still do more!”
I tilted my head at Chloe’s firm answer.
Well, yeah, it’s good to work hard.
The attitude to become stronger is admirable, and it’s good to see.
Above all, the sparkling eyes that seem to want a sense of accomplishment faster than others are a smile even if you
think of it as unblemished purity.
But usually, kids at this age prefer to play rather than train.
Charle and the knights I taught all preferred to have useless small talk with me rather than training.
Hmm.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a child like this.
By the way, didn’t I say it a little while ago?
It’s true that I’m strict, but I’m not pushing them to the point where their bodies become half-crippled.
Rest is as important as training.
I smiled with a troubled expression.
“I told you, Chloe. Whether it’s your pure will to become stronger or some other reason, rest is as important as
training. Your passion is admirable, but there are still students who haven’t caught up with the class. I won’t say
anything about going too far ahead alone, but rest a little now.”
It’s good to work hard.
It’s good, but sometimes it can be poison.
It’s already amazing that she’s done all the assignments and training I gave her today.
“The skills and stamina you’ve learned in your body won’t suddenly disappear just because you rest now, right?
When you rest, rest comfortably.”
If you still want to move your body, do some simple stretching.
“The professor can’t restrict the student’s freedom.”
K.
That was pretty cool this time.
Thinking so to myself, I was proud, but I didn’t see Kuroi and the surrounding students looking at me with
incomprehensible expressions as if they were looking at something strange.
“Pfft.”
Damian Radius showing off to a student, this is a bit rare.
Leticia laughed playfully.
