A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Episode 121 – Being a professor is hard

After Adalbert accepted Nina’s proposal and left her laboratory, silence filled the room.

However, that is only for a moment.

Nina stood up from the spot where she had her conversation with Adalbert and went back to her desk.

Pulling out a chair from her desk, she sat down on her chair and started searching for her papers in the drawers next to her desk.

“There must be an application form for an advisor somewhere…”

What she was looking for in her drawer was an application for her advisor.

Being an advisor didn’t mean shouting, “From now on, I’m the advisor!”

The advisory professor and advisory student system was created to intensively educate a single talented person at Noble Academy to grow into a person with both knowledge and experience.

Thus, the system was not operated in a rule-of-thumb way, but it had to go through complicated procedures such as submitting the necessary documents and undergoing qualification screening.

There were several reasons why the advisory system had such a complicated procedure.

However, the most important reason was to prevent the advisor system from becoming a system for the convenience of ‘unqualified’ students.

As mentioned earlier, the advisory professor system was created to find people with so-called ‘genius’ talents who are more outstanding than ordinary people and nurture them into experts in the field.

Can we really say that no one is going to abuse this system, where you only have to take all the other courses taught by your advisor, except for the essential courses that you must take no matter which major you choose?

As for the advisory professor system, if an advisor student’s achievement is not smooth, he will automatically step down from the advisory professor position from the next semester.

In addition, even if an advisor student made some progress, if he did not graduate, the professor in question would not be able to apply for an advisor position again.

Literally, because of these regulations that force students to risk their all to nurture talented people, at Noble Academy, unless they have high potential, they will not serve as advisors.

Nina sat in her seat and pondered.

Seeing her staring at her advisor application form on her desk, people must have thought, ‘You’re thinking a lot about becoming a professor.’

However, there was something that no one expected.

‘I heard that if she becomes an advisor, she can go outside practice. Where should she go?’

She had no concerns about becoming her advisor.

‘To make a proper excuse, wouldn’t it be better to go to the border area where fights often occur?’

Rather, she was thinking of spending more time with Adalbert, using the professorship as an excuse.

As the saying goes, ‘I don’t know if I’m leaking into stealing that I learned late’, Nina was trying to find time to spend alone with the person she loves.

With her future plans somewhat finalized, Nina began working on her paperwork in earnest.

She held an eagle’s feather pen in her hand, Nina opened her inkwell and dipped her ink with her quill.

And slowly, carefully, she began to fill in the blanks in the paperwork.

–

About an hour later, she went down to the administrative office on the first floor of the main building with her completed documents.

As she greeted students passing by, she walked down the stairs and a sign called the administrative office appeared in front of her.

When I carefully opened the door to the administrative office and entered, several people were working.

“Hey, I’m here to submit my advisor application…”

“Ah, do you want to submit an application for an advisor? Come over here and I’ll take care of it.”

Nina sat in her seat and talked to the clerk who was taking care of the business, while the clerk in the other seat answered Nina’s question.

With her papers in her arms, Nina walked to the seat where the clerk was sitting who told her to come.

“Did you sit down and get all the paperwork you need?”

“Oh, yes.”

Nina held out her documents in her arms at the words of her staff.

The clerk took Nina’s papers, put them on her seat, and began flipping through her papers to make sure all of her papers were on hand.

About three minutes passed, and the staff nodded her head and looked at Nina.

“Oh, are you done?”

“Yes, the application process has been completed. There will be an internal examination soon. If you pass the internal examination, you will become an advisor from then on.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

“What? This is what we do. If you have any more questions, I can send you the manual to the lab.”

After submitting her documents, Nina greeted the staff who helped her with the application and left the administrative office.

“Hey there.”

At that time, a strange female voice came from behind her.

Thinking it was calling her, Nina turned her head and looked in the direction she had heard it.

There stood a woman who looked about her age with her arms crossed.

“Who are you?”

“Who are you? You don’t know who I am?”

The red-haired woman clicked her tongue in amazement when Nina reacted as if she didn’t know herself.

“I haven’t been here in a while, so I’m not sure. I’d appreciate it if you could tell me the name.”

“Ha, really. That’s why I can’t help being a noble from a commoner. Listen carefully. My name is Regina Embryo Scarlett.”

Her red-haired woman brushed her hair behind her and she said her name.

Nina was a red-haired woman, and upon hearing her name Regina said, she pondered.

But no matter how much I thought about it, I don’t think I’ve heard her name anywhere.

For Nina, Regina was the first name she heard today.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not sure. This is the first time I’ve heard of it.”

“Ha… I really won.”

At Nina’s reaction, Regina looked at Nina with a puzzled expression.

But she nodded her head and put on a look of understanding.

“Yes. I, the broad-minded, have to understand. Listen carefully. I am the head professor of the Department of Healing to which you belong.”

“Ah! That’s right. You’re the head of the department. Nice to meet you. This is Nina Gratias Esselton, the newcomer.”

Regina was the head professor of the Department of Healing that Nina belonged to.

When Nina found out about this, she greeted Regina with a bright smile.

“Huh …… Really. Yeah. Please take a good time.

“Yes, Professor.”

Regina greeted Nina with her eyes as if she was looking at her younger brother, who was a bit short of hers, and the two of them went their separate ways.

There were some misunderstandings in the process of getting to know each other, but it seemed to have been resolved amicably anyway.

–

The next morning, Adalbert greeted his first class in earnest.

The first subject he learned today was ‘Basic Healing’.

The subject of healing was a subject that taught people to heal their bodies and cure diseases.

Especially, this basic healing science was designated as a compulsory course that all students must take.

The reason why Basic Healing Science was designated as a required course was because Basic Healing Science contained basic wound care and first aid.

No matter how well one handles a sword and uses magic, one could be in great danger if one does not know how to heal wounds or illnesses.

For example, it looks like a very light wound, but if it is cut by a rusty knife, there is a high probability that the wound will become necrotic.

At this time, finely ground several herbs that grow in the wild and applied to the wound had the effect of detoxifying the toxin in the wound.

The names of the herbs were ‘Summer Lantern’, ‘Moonbogi Flower’, and ‘Shamrock’.

These three herbs were indeed common herbs that were widely spread throughout the world.

Those who have learned basic healing will know the uses of this herb, and those who have not learned will overlook it.

If you get cut by a rusty knife, those who know this will take the appropriate measures and you’ll pass unscathed.

Anyone who didn’t know this would end up having an arm or leg cut off in agony.

So, at Noble Academy, we thought that it was essential to know first aid for yourself or your allies.

In fact, since the introduction of basic healing classes, the number of cases in which injuries received in real battles lead to major injuries has begun to noticeably decrease.

Because of such a dramatic effect, the Noble Academy even designated a required course as an academy rule, and the size of the Healing Department also grew enormously.

And today, Nina was the professor teaching Adalbert’s basic healing class.

“Okay then, would you please turn to page 12 of your textbook? What we will learn today is about the need for first aid.”

At her voice, many students in the classroom opened their textbooks to page 12.
