Chapter 6 – The New Professor is a LunaticThee source of this content no/v/(el)bi((n))
A separate professor’s office was prepared on the second floor of the main building. The nameplate on the door read “Head Combat Professor Dian.”
The office assigned to me was small and cozy. Since my predecessor had thrown in their resignation and left in the middle of the night, the furniture like the chair and desk were still there, ready for immediate use.
All the various office supplies were to be provided by the academy, but the problem was that bookshelf and those shelves...
The empty bookshelf and shelves standing against one wall of the office were really bothering me. But then again, I didn’t have any books to put there or anything to display, which was a bit of a problem. Ah, I’ve got a good idea.
“Sir Dian, are you sure you’ve become a professor here?”
Olysia, who had come at my call, looked at me suspiciously as she took out the things from her bag. What she brought were the tea set and snacks that we had been using back in Brunswell.
“Shouldn’t a professor have some books or something like that here?”
“I’m not someone who got in through a real exam, so it’s fine. Besides, what I’m teaching isn’t theory but practical experience.”
“But if you fill up the office with random stuff like this, the higher-ups might get annoyed.”
“Then I’ll just quit.”
Olysia looked at me with an incredulous expression.
“I don’t want to go back to that village.”
Now that I think about it, Olysia had always wanted to leave Brunswell. It wasn’t that she hated Brunswell specifically; she just wanted to go to a more developed city.
Girls her age usually prefer bustling shopping streets and neat noble districts over drunken, ignorant sailors and the smell of the sea breeze.
“Anyway, Sir Dian, please stay here. Since you’re here, do your best.”
“Sure, sure. Got it. While you’re at it, make me some tea. I have to go to a meeting.”
“Drink it here before you go. You don’t want to be criticized for being arrogant by bringing a teacup to the meeting.”
“What does it matter? It’s not a big deal to drink tea during a meeting.”
Carrying the cup of tea that Olysia had made, I walked down the corridor toward the meeting room.
“Hello.”
As I opened the door and entered, numerous eyes turned toward me. There were about twenty people of various genders and races. Let’s see. Of course, there are dwarves, and there’s an orc too. I wonder if communication will be an issue.
“Why are you blocking the door?”
I turned around to see Headmaster Kirrin, the Dark Elf, standing there.
“And what’s with the teacup? I appreciate it, but I must decline. I usually in the morning...”
“Huh? This? I’m going to drink it?”
As I took a sip of tea, Headmaster Kirrin’s face turned a dark shade of red.
“Move aside.”
Following the headmaster into the meeting room, I looked for my seat. Is it over there? Next to the headmaster, huh.
“Don’t sit down. I was just about to introduce you anyway.”
Just as I was about to sit, the headmaster stopped me, so I awkwardly stood up again, still holding the teacup.
“Attention, everyone. This is our new Head Combat Professor, Dian.”
The professors murmured among themselves as they exchanged glances.
“He has the specialized knowledge suitable for our academy’s curriculum, and from today, he is part of our family. Please get along well with him. That’s all.”
As the headmaster finished speaking, the professors applauded, and I smiled in response and began to speak.
“Then, let me say a few words...”
“The meeting will start now. First, today’s agenda.”
Before I could even open my mouth properly, the meeting began. I had even prepared a few jokes for my introduction.
“I don’t know how long you served or which battles you fought in, but don’t make the foolish mistake of trying to assert superiority with that. Isn’t it obvious why I hold the position of Head Professor at this age?”
The Comprehensive Combat Professor’s face flushed, but he seemed unable to find any words to refute. Since he’s older than me, I didn’t want to push him too hard, so I smiled and patted his shoulder.
“I’ll try not to eat or drink during meetings. So let’s ease the tension. If you’re too rigid, you’ll get seriously ill later on.”
“...Understood.”
# # # # #
The Comprehensive Combat Training Ground I arrived at was a straight line course running from the bottom of a hill to the top within the academy. The training course involves reaching the flag at the top of the hill within a set time limit.
At first glance, it seems simple, but with dozens of various obstacles along the route, overcoming them is no easy feat.
I climbed the control tower at the starting line to observe the students practicing on the course. About thirty students were advancing toward the top at different speeds like ants.
But strangely, their movements were sluggish, and some of the obstacles even had bypass routes or planks laid out like bridges.
“Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!”
In the section where they were supposed to suppress the enemy with arrows from behind cover, they were shooting bows without arrows and making sound effects with their mouths. What the hell is this?!
“Professor, what’s this? Why is the training so sloppy?”
“By the Headmaster’s order, we’ve removed all dangerous elements to ensure safety.”
Upon hearing the details, I learned that high-risk obstacles were omitted, and they didn’t provide arrows for fear of accidents.
This needs to be addressed. If things continue this way, the level of the academy’s graduates will drop, leading to complaints from the Inspection and Intelligence Bureau.
The Second Princess, upon confirming those complaints, would seize the opportunity to oust the headmaster. If the headmaster is dismissed, I’ll be the one dragged up to fill the vacancy.
If I don’t take the position, they might threaten to bring Linus back, who just started looking after his newborn. That mustn’t happen. There’s a reason I came here.
“Is there a mage in this academy?”
“There is, but... why do you ask?”
“Bring the mage here. From now on, I’ll personally oversee this place.”
# # # # #
Boom, boom.
Buried in paperwork, Headmaster Kirrin was startled by the sudden explosion and vibration. She rushed to the window. From there, she saw a massive cloud of dust rising from the middle of the hill where the Comprehensive Combat Training Ground was located.
What’s happening? We removed all the factors that could cause such commotion from today’s training.
As new clouds of dust formed with flashes of light, Kirrin suddenly remembered Dian mentioning that he would be visiting the Comprehensive Combat Training Ground.
No way, no way... no way...?!
Kirrin didn’t even bother with the stairs, jumping out of the second-floor window.
Landing like a cat, Kirrin immediately dashed toward the comprehensive training ground, which was shaking with successive explosions.
“Huh?!”
Upon arriving at the training ground, Kirrin was speechless, frozen by the sight before her.
Dozens of academy students were running up the hill as if their lives depended on it, resembling active soldiers in a battle for high ground.
Flashes of light streaked down, exploding among the students’ rear.
The source of the light was the control tower at the starting line. A mage from the academy was enthusiastically casting attack spells.
And next to the mage....
“Over there this time! Keep pushing! Training is like real combat! Real combat is like training!”
Head Professor Dian was wildly swinging a long branch, directing the fire.
“A drop of sweat in training saves a bucket of blood in real combat! Keep pounding them!”
“Argh! You crazy bastard!!!”
