A Reincarnated Professor at the Constellation Academy

Anomalies and Omens (1)

Clap.

The sound of burning wood fires lingers in the quiet office.

It’s late afternoon on a weekend.

With the exceptionally bright sunlight at my back, I remembered the author of a book.

‘Maria Lawrence.’

She was one of my closest colleagues in my lifetime.

He was the strongest swordsman I knew, and also the greatest leader.

Although she was a demon, she still loved humans.

Despite countless discriminations and misunderstandings, he stood on the side of mankind and fought for them.

And, he was the only person who accepted me when I was wandering and wandering.

-hi.

She and her colleagues were always together.

They were called the ‘Pentagram’, and always led mankind from the forefront of the battlefield.

At that time, I, who was just an ordinary person, could only watch their backs.

And, I thought it would be like that in the future.

-I am Maria. you are?

That’s how she came to me.

Seeing the day I couldn’t die, I reached out with a bright smile.

– Eugene, would you like to join Pentagram?

I asked. why me

To that question, she answered with a smile.

-Because you are the right person.

Like that, we walked the battlefield together.

Other comrades, who were awkward at first, became comrades whom he could trust and entrust his life to over time.

Maria Lawrence.

The teacher who made me who I am today, and the person who no longer exists.

The traces she left behind, I chewed on for a long time…

“What are you thinking?”

“·······.”

I woke up from my thoughts at the sound of a voice next to me.

When I opened my closed eyes and turned my head, Professor Skadi, who had approached right in front of me, was looking at me.

“It’s nothing.”

I put away Maria’s books and opened the papers.

“You know. Can I really just help with this?”

“Yes.”

“Really? Even if I say it with my own mouth, I’m a very high-class person?”

“This is enough.”

“Be honest. You just missed me, right?”

A white tail wags behind a meaningful smile.

I looked at him disapprovingly, and immediately shook my head in denial.

“no.”

“Sheesh.”

The reason I called Skadi was to use her as a reviewer for my thesis.

Whatever her personality, she is Helios’ greatest authority on magic theory.

She had a lot of experience in presenting papers, and she was the best person I could ask for help.

“Let’s see…’The theory of multiple mediation of circles’…?”

She began reviewing the draft of the basic theory handed over from me.

Skadi, who was reading the part corresponding to the outline, sighed in vain.

“Creating a circle on an artifact outside the body? hehehe~ I thought there would be someone else researching this.”

“Are there many?”

“Is that a lot? I’m sure all magicians who use Circles have thought about it at least once? It’s because all of them fail.”

She slid down the document she was reading and looked at me with a sinister smile.

“What is it?”

“This, circle magic beginners always say, ‘I’m different!’ That’s what I’m starting to do.”

“So it is.”

“No~ You have a cuter side than you look.”

She obviously thinks this theory is going to fail.

Maybe that’s why, even the eyes looking at me meant ‘My junior is doing cute things!’

It was clear that he hadn’t read the bottom.

If you had read the contents properly, there would be no way that such a sound would come out.

“Have you read this?”

“No?

“Let’s read it.”

“Yeah~ yes yes.”

Perhaps thinking that she had something to make fun of, her gaze readily turned to the lower paragraph.

And, as he began to read the contents one by one, his expression hardened.

The purple eyes that used to be laughing get bigger and bigger, and the smile starts to disappear from the face.

As she read through the last paragraph before she knew it, only two emotions remained: surprise and disbelief on her face.

“Is this… possible?”

“Yes.”

“Activate after implementing a circle using the rotating body in the weapon? That makes sense, but the magic design…”

She examined the words in denial, but there couldn’t be anything wrong with them.

Of course. I’ve already sorted out all the principles of the rotating body and the magic formula, and I’ve written down that the implementation was successful.

A Skadi who has mastered the theory would know that better than anyone else.

“Do you have any means to prove this?”

“of course.”

I immediately took out my revolver and raised it.

Skadi was taken aback by the appearance of the weapon that had broken her magic, but I didn’t care and blew magic into the revolver.

The barrel is engulfed in blue flame, and the chamber rotates rapidly.

And after a while, the moment he saw a clear ring surrounding the chamber, Skadi’s eyes opened wide as if they would jump out.

“Oh, no no. Really? This?”

“Can’t you believe it when you see it?”

“But… until now, no one has succeeded. This!”

It seemed that he was very surprised to see him jumping up and down.

She was walking around the office with a thesis, and suddenly, she banged on my desk!

He put down the papers with a sound.

“Since when did you study this?”

“It’s been about a week.”

“One week? One week two days?? You said you got results like this in one week?”

“It wasn’t very difficult.”

“Wow···.”

Her shoulders trembled.

The double-wicked face looks like it’s staring at you.

“It’s not advertised as a constellation…”

“Yes?”

“No. It’s nothing. I’ll admit it. You’re a genius. This is an idea that no wizard has ever done before. You’re probably the only person in all dimensions who can write magic control like this by hand.”

“·······.”

Pew.

He sighed softly and his shoulders drooped.

He trudged over and sat down at the desk next to him, looking very weak.

“Okay. Now that you’ve shown me this, I can’t stand still.”

“What is that?”

“I’ll let you write the prettiest thesis that no one can criticize.”

“·······.”

“Just trust me.”

Did he even make up his mind after seeing my theory?

All of a sudden, the mischief disappeared and his eyes were full of enthusiasm.

I spread out my theory on the desk and hold the pen.

Then, he grabbed the wagging tail and bit the end with his mouth.

“·······?”

What? Are you working like that?

It is also strange that it has a tail, but the sight of it playing with a pen with it in its mouth was quite a sensation.

As I was staring at her, Skadi felt her gaze and turned to me.

“Why?”

“Why are you biting your tail?”

“Just like that? It must be a habit.”

Then he smiles and turns his tail towards me.

“Would you like to touch it?”

“Nope.”

“I’m not letting anyone touch my tail.”

“I’ll take your heart.”

“… Hmm. Don’t ask me to touch you later.”

I don’t even think so.

When I turned her attention to her, she focused on her thesis with a sullen face.

Of course, without forgetting to bite the tail back into the mouth.

smart.

Just then, an unexpected knock rang through the office.

-Professor Eugene. This is Roshua.

“Come in.”

The professor opened the door and greeted me.

“The Senate sent a letter.”

“You could make a student do this.”

“hahahaha. The work of the Senate is confidential. Coincidentally, I’m also at school, so I came here with both partners.”

He smiles and says it, but his face is full of skepticism.

As I always think, this guy does too many chores to be a core subject professor.

Was it caught as a weakness in the school?

As he took out a letter with a light sigh, he suddenly saw Skadi sitting on one side of the office and opened his eyes wide.

“What? Professor Skadi?”

“Ghehehe…”

The shoulders exposed under the conical hat shrank.

The cold sweat was dripping down, and it was obvious that the current situation was a crisis for her.

It was embarrassing to be punished by a new professor and even act as a helper.

“Ah… well…”

That look, trembling like a vibration mode, is proof of that.

Roshua’s eyes narrowed at her.

“Professor Skadi…”

“Ah… Huh… Yes?”

“The rumors are true.”

flinch.

Skadi’s vibration mode has gone up a notch.

“Shomu… Rumors? What’s that…”

“There’s only one rumor about Professor Skadi lately.”

narrowed gaze. Shivering Skadi. meaningful voice.

He glanced sideways at me, nodded, and opened his mouth.

“Is the rumor that you lost on purpose true?”

“······yes?”

Skadi stood tall and quietly lifted the brim of her large hat.

Blink.

Her eyes stared at Roshua as if she couldn’t understand why.

“I heard through rumors that Professor Skadi helped Professor Yujin Kang adapt to school life.”

“ah···?”

The contents of the rumors that Roshua said were as follows.

Professor Kang Yoo-jin, who has no foundation, will surely suffer from territorial attitude even after entering the school.

So, let’s go ahead and break up with Professor Yujin Kang.

Then Kang Yoo-jin, who won the core subject professor, would gain a reputation of his own, and his territorial attitude would decrease, so he would be able to adapt to school life more comfortably.

“I didn’t know you were such a thoughtful person to worry about the circumstances of your juniors while undermining your own prestige. I saw people again.”

“That, that… ahahahaha…”

“Isn’t that right, Professor Yujin Kang?”

The arrow returned to me.

Roshua’s meaningful eyes and Skadi’s eyes filled with bewilderment and confusion were pierced at the same time.

I quietly put down my thesis and gave a short answer.

“I agree.”

“Also!”

“Eh!? Gee, really…!?”

A smiling Roshua and a startled Skadi.

He went to Skadi, who had frozen in astonishment, and grabbed her hand and shook it.

“As expected, Professor Skadi! He is an example to all professors.”

“That…no, of course. Ahem. Bo, you were caught unintentionally…?”

“I didn’t see anything today.

Only then did Roshua hand over the letter as if she remembered it, and left the office.

The silence that fell again was as heavy as the power of the storm that had raged.

“What is this… what are you talking about?”

“Professor Skadi lost it to save you there.”

“No~! It’s a rumor, but why are you affirming it?”

You didn’t lose, you won.

Skadi said that as if questioning.

It was a little unexpected that he did not hide the results no matter what his prestige.

I returned to my thesis and answered her question.

“Because there is no reason to deny it.”

“What did you say?”

“I said there was no reason to deny it.”

tilt.

Her hat tipped as much as her head tilted in question.

“Why?”

“It doesn’t bother you or me to be misunderstood.”

I don’t really want to be misunderstood and gossip about this.

I’m busy doing my own thing, so I don’t want to waste my time on such gossip.

Roughly, the reason I said was like this.

“So…you confirmed that nonsense?”

“Yes.”

“But… it’s true that you won. Doesn’t it hurt your pride?”

“not really.”

I shook my head without any reaction.

Because there is no such rumor.

It’s a simple story.

This was their unity to prevent Skadi, who was discouraged from losing to me, from asking other professors for sparring, saying that this couldn’t be the case.

It’s roughly called ‘Measures to Prevent Skadi Shit’.

I received several months’ salary as a cost of labor in exchange for matching the beat to the skit, so I could do as much as I could with my pride that hadn’t hurt anyway, even pretending to bow once.

Unaware of anything, Skadi lowered her head with a dazed face and hugged her own tail tightly.

“The Mercy of the Constellation…”

I keep mumbling something, but I don’t know what it is.

Then, he raised his head and opened his mouth.

“This! How long can I do it!?”

“How long will it take.”

“Maybe a month if you do as usual?”

it’s a month

At least that means it’s over before the midterms start.

Since the major selection period was next, the timing was appropriate.

“That’s enough.”

The major selection period in which you choose your major in earnest.

It was sufficient if the paper could be published before that period.

At least you won’t hear that a lack of performance will hinder your choice of major.

The value of the performance will be determined by them.

“It was good…”

Leaving behind Skadi, who was burning her will, I opened the letter I received earlier.

＜Invitation＞

-Target: Yujin Kang

-The constellation, ‘the most holy sky’ wants to meet you.

“·······.”

My employer is looking for me.

I was taken aback for a moment as this had never happened before, but I soon recovered my senses.

Is something going on?

Looking at the brief invitation, my thoughts deepened.

*

Helios’s office is locked in darkness.

In the center of the place where all the curtains had been lowered, a person had taken a seat and was standing there.

“It’s not long.”

Around him, demons filled with turbid energy flowed.

And in front of the bowed figure, there was a crack in the torn space, and beyond that, the shape of a huge spider lurked.

-How long does it take to complete a summoning?

“It will take less than two weeks.”

– The plan.

“That’s perfect too.”

Shiiy-

At the spider’s voice that penetrated his head, In-young answered without interruption.

Despite the mental waves that would have blinded normal people, In-young did not suffer in the slightest.

On the contrary, every time we had a conversation, a strong demonic energy rose from his body.

It was a part where we could see that he was a ‘Majin’ who had turned to the Witchbeast.

“On the day you arrive, I will make Helios clean and empty.”

-good night···.

Inyoung bowed her head deeply and stepped back from the rift.

In the darkness beyond the rift, eight eye-beams flashed and shone.

– The opportunity finally comes.

The strong barrier that used to surround Helios has noticeably weakened recently.

Thanks to this, when even high-ranking demons such as middle and upper class were able to break through the barrier and invade, the demons began to plan Helios’ invasion in earnest.

young stars here.

If you cut off the sprouts that will become constellations and apostles in the future, it will deal a huge blow to the forces of the allied forces confronting the Witchbeasts.

-Not long…

waiting for a time not far away.

The spider disappeared through the darkness of the rift.
