A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Chapter 105

Episode 105 – Busy bulletin board next to the front gate

On days when there were entrance exams or some important event ahead, the front gate of Noble Academy was crowded with people.

To be precise, people flocked to the large bulletin board built next to the main entrance of the Noble Academy.

To find out why people flock to the academy’s bulletin board, first we need to know how news spreads in this world.

The only way for ordinary people to know the news of other areas was to go to the area directly or to hear from merchants who passed through the area.

Also, although there was a postal system to communicate directly with people living in other regions, transportation was not well developed. There were times when I didn’t go.

However, the Noble Academy dispatched magicians to each region of the El Pario Empire with the support of the Imperial Family.

This mage was given the title of ‘liaison officer’, and their main job was to periodically report to the Noble Academy what rumors were circulating in the area.

Thanks to these liaisons, the Noble Academy could periodically find out what was happening in various parts of the empire very quickly.

Only the information received through the liaison officer was censored, and only the contents that were allowed to be disclosed were used to inform people through the bulletin board next to the main gate.

This date was the last day of every month, and it was regarded as a regular event on the last day of every month for people living in the area where Noble Academy is located to look at the bulletin board of Noble Academy.

However, today, even though it was not the end of the month, people flocked to the bulletin board because it was the day the honorable candidates who passed the Noble Academy entrance exam were announced.

On this day, all outsiders except those who took the entrance exam are restricted from accessing the Noble Academy bulletin board.

The reason for this is obvious, but there were too many people who came to see who passed the Noble Academy entrance exam, so it was a consideration so that those who took the entrance exam could check the contents of the bulletin board first.

People who had taken the entrance exam and returned to their respective places of stay were looking at the bulletin board with nervous and trembling hearts.

The hands of the clock on the bulletin board indicate the current time is 9:50.

In the next 10 minutes, the winners of the Noble Academy entrance exam for this season would be announced.

Adalbert was also one of the people looking at the bulletin board.

After leaving the Bregern Empire and coming this far, he had to enter the Noble Academy.

After the waiting time that made everyone nervous, the moment finally arrived when the successful applicants for the entrance exam were announced.

Finally, the hands of the clock on the bulletin board pointed to 10 o’clock, and letters began to appear on the bulletin board.

[From now on, we will announce the honorable candidates who passed the Noble Academy entrance exam this quarter.]

Surprisingly, the bulletin board started writing on its own without anyone posting anything on it.

[The number you received while submitting your application form is your test number. From now on, we will reveal the list of successful candidates.]

The text on the bulletin board changed to reveal the list of successful applicants, and at the same time, as dominoes fell and pictures appeared, hundreds of numbers began to appear.

… ….

[367][368]

[372][373]

[375][378]

… ….

Adalbert found his exam number, 372, among the rows of numbers.

Having your test number among the numbers written on the bulletin board meant passing.

At the same time, another text began to be written automatically in a corner of the bulletin board.

[In addition, scholarships are awarded to those who achieve excellent grades in this entrance exam. Scholarship recipients will be contacted separately.]

[Thank you to all the students who took the Noble Academy entrance exam this quarter.]

[Although there may be people who failed this quarterly exam, I hope you will have good results next year.]

I don’t know who the person in charge of the bulletin board is, but there was even a phrase comforting those who failed.

Considering that even such a common phrase could not be seen in the Royal Academy, I didn’t know that even such a trivial part could have an effect on Noble Academy’s victory over the Royal Academy in a friendly match.

Anyway, Adalbert was about to go back after checking his bulletin board for his exam number, when he happened to overhear a conversation between the two.

“Oh, yes. Did you hear that?”

“What is it?”

“Did you know that this time, in order to deepen friendship between the Royal Academy and the Noble Academy, we decided to change the professor for one course for a year?”

“Ah, are you referring to the exchange professor system that will be implemented from this year?”

Adalbert listened to the voices of the two people talking about an interesting topic of conversation.

I’ve heard of exchange students, but exchange professors?

In order to focus on their conversation, Adalbert blocked out other sounds around him and began to listen only to their conversation.

“Who is coming this time?”

“Okay. I heard that he is the one who teaches healing magic and medicine.”

“Really? Are you a man or a woman?”

“It’s a girl. It looks like you have great skills.”

Adalbert was able to obtain the following information from the conversation between the two.

First, this time he started exchanging professors at the Royal Academy and the Noble Academy.

The second professor from the Royal Academy teaches healing magic and medicine.

Third, the gender of the professor is female.

When these three pieces of information were combined, there was one person that came to Adalbert’s mind, and that was Professor Julia.

Adalbert thought the identity of the new professor coming this time was Professor Julia.

So he thought.

She tells Professor Julia that she is alive. Should she tell Nina and her family?

However, this was too risky.

There are very few people who have returned from disappearance, and the most recent person who went missing and returned was a person from 300 years ago.

In addition, it is said that after the man returned, he acted strangely and eventually killed dozens of people and ended his life.

What if she told Professor Nina or Julia that she was alive?

First of all, something really headache and inexplicable would happen.

So Adalbert decided to give up approaching Professor Julia for now.

‘Now is not the time. Not yet… …. If you act hastily, you can screw everything up.’

Adalbert felt that it was not yet the right time, and made up his mind to avoid the professor of the Royal Academy who would come as an exchange professor, presumed to be Professor Julia.

He checked for further notice from him and then went back to his lodgings.

Noble Academy also operated a dormitory like the Royal Academy, and freshmen had to stay in the dormitory unconditionally.

When I went up to the second year, I could choose to commute or live in a dormitory, but most of the students chose to live in a dormitory.

Anyway, Adalbert returned to his lodgings and slowly began to pack things up.

It was because a few days later, the dormitory assignment was made along with the entrance ceremony, and there would be no reason to stay here once you live in the dormitory.

So he precalculated a price that was generous enough to cover him for several weeks, and if he left later than expected, the host would refund the difference.

Adalbert looked around the accommodation where he was staying and organized his luggage.

As far as luggage was concerned, there was only one bundle, one sword, one white robe, and one bag containing clothes to change into.

It was a lot of things that were not enough to be seen as burdens that a person from a noble family and a sword master would have.

‘Well, this is enough.’

However, since the people who use them are satisfied, these loads will not change for the time being.

In addition, since it is a rule at Noble Academy to wear school uniforms during class, plain clothes were allowed only after class.

Adalbert liked the rule.

Anyway, when it comes to casual clothes, there are only clothes in a slightly dull color, so I liked the slightly cheerful color of the school uniform.

‘Can I meet good friends at Noble Academy?’

Adalbert went to sleep expecting a new relationship to meet at the Noble Academy.

Soon he fell asleep, and he awoke the next morning.

–

Infirmary at the Royal Academy.

After Professor Julia, who was originally in charge of the infirmary, got married and left the professorship, a new person succeeded her as the professor in charge of the infirmary.

“Noble Academy.”

Her name is.

“Why did His Majesty the Emperor send me there?”

Nina Esselton.

“I don’t know. I’ll have to go and see…….”

Alberto Salihar Meidern’s exclusive handmaid and lover.

A sheet of paper was placed in front of her.

“What kind of people will I meet at Noble Academy?”

The paper was a professor dispatch order with the emperor’s seal on it.

The professor of the Royal Academy who was said to be coming to the Noble Academy was Nina.

Unbeknownst to that, Adalbert, who was Alberto, fell into a sound sleep.

Indeed, how will Adalbert react when he faces Nina?
