15 – Bet with the President

I saw a desk piled with papers.

I see a girl sitting in front of the desk and processing paperwork.

Atalante Arsene.

The president of Arsene Academy and the strongest woman on the continent.

I have come to the president’s office after receiving her call.

“I heard you called.”

Let me call her. Atalanta’s hand, which was working on papers, stopped.

Then she raised her head and looked at me.

Red eyes, waist-length red hair, and the look of a girl.

It was the way she looked.

Unlike when we first met her, she wasn’t faking her appearance.

‘Are you sure you don’t intend to cheat on someone you’ve already seen?’

Who would look at that little girl and think she’s a monster that can wipe out an entire country by herself?

While thinking about that, she opened her mouth and said.

“Welcome. Derian teacher. How are the classes? Is it worth it?”

“Students follow along better than expected, so the class is proceeding without any inconvenience.”

“I’m glad.”

Atalante answered with a grin, took out five sheets of paper from the pile of papers and held them out in front of me.

“The reason I called Dr. Derian is none other than the students you are in charge of.”

At her words, I checked the five pieces of paper she held out.

The five pieces of paper that Atalanta held out. It was a document that would proceed with the expulsion of the students I was teaching.

Fortunately, the president’s approval has not yet been granted, so he has not actually been expelled.

The reason I’m showing this is probably because I’m their homeroom teacher.

I looked at Atalanta with a puzzled expression.

Then she sighed and continued her words.

“At this rate, all five students will be expelled.”

“How come there is no way?”

I didn’t want the students I taught to be expelled without ever showing their skills.

“Mars Arena.”

Arsene Academy’s competition to be held in a month.

“You can avoid expulsion if you win even once in Mars Arena.”

“Are you talking about victory?”

“Yes, I am not asking you to win. You only have to win once, no matter who your opponent is.”

“Is there any other way?”

One win only.

The conditions seemed simple, but it was not easy.

Mars Arena is a competition for all grades.

That means that the upper class students also participate in the competition.

Although the students in the failing class have become stronger through training, they are not yet strong enough to work with the upper class students.

If you’re unlucky enough to meet an upper class student as your first opponent, you won’t be guaranteed victory.

If you win even once, you can avoid expulsion.

However, on the other hand, if you lose even once, you will be expelled.

The risk was too great.

“It has already been decided. And it’s not just students who have to worry.”

“What do you mean?”

“If more than 3 students are expelled, we decided to fire Mr. Derian as well.”

“What is that…….”

Determining the expulsion of students under ridiculous conditions is not enough, so now they say they will fire me.

“I don’t understand.”

“It has already been decided.”

“Can’t you change the conditions?”

I had to somehow change the conditions to prevent the expulsion of students.

“I don’t want to see students expelled either. But I can’t help it. That’s the rule of this academy.”

The academy that puts competence first is Arsene.

In a way, it is natural for students to be expelled from Arsene due to lack of skills.

But my students are different. My students who endured the hellish training were not the weak students of the past.

We cannot afford to lose students who are just starting to shine like this.

Along with my workplace.

I can’t afford to suffer like this. I had to come up with a way somehow.

After thinking about it, I opened my mouth and said.

“Good. I’ll accept it. Instead, I want to make a bet with the president. Would you agree?”

At the word bet, she said with an interesting look on her face.

“Which bet do you mean?”

“If even one of the students I taught was included in the Five of Glory, what would the president do for me and the students?”

5 People of glory.

The five people who survived to the end in Mars Arena are called the Five of Glory.

It also symbolized the five strongest students in the academy.

“Yes? Poop, ahahahahaha!”

When I finished, she leaned back in her chair and smiled, holding her navel.

Little tears flowed from her eyes from how she laughed.

As time passed, she finally calmed down and said, wiping her tears.

“If you were just trying to make fun of me, Derian, I would say it was very successful.”

She seemed to think I was joking.

Not too much. It was because he said that he would take the students of his failing class and take the place of the 5th member of glory.

But I wasn’t kidding.

“I am not kidding.”

Her expression hardened at my words.

Then he stared at me with fierce eyes and said.

“Then, teacher Derahn, do you think that the students you are teaching can take the place of the 5th person of honor?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes.”

“I don’t know where the confidence comes from. Do you really think it’s possible?”

It was always the upper class students who took the honorable 5th place at the annual Mars Arena.

Occasionally, it was not uncommon for a student in the intermediate class to stand out and take the honorable 5th place, but it was not uncommon.

The position that is so difficult to occupy is the 5 members of Glory.

However, the idea that such an honorable place would be occupied only by students from the class of failing students sounded like a joke to Atalanta.

That’s also true, because since the founding of Arsene Academy, there has never been a time when a student in the class of an underachiever has taken the place of the 5th person of honor.

“I am serious. President. Let me ask you again. If even one of the students I have taught gets a place in the top five, what can you do for me and the students?”

“Hmm… ….”

Did my sincerity reach you? The principal rested his chin on his chin and pondered.

The worry was not long.

Having made a decision, the president opened his mouth and said.

“Okay. Since Derian-sensei said that much, I’ll accept that bet. Instead, if even one of the students in the class of failing students does not take the place of the honored 5, all students will be expelled and the teachers will be fired.”

“Okay.”

“And if, really, if, as you said, your students occupy the place of the 5th person of honor, all students will be expelled, and the teacher and students will be given the right to take one item from the eternal warehouse. I will give you.”

Forever Warehouse.

As Arsene Academy boasts a long history, it had many old relics and treasures.

Among them, especially valuable and dangerous items were stored in the eternal warehouse.

Everything inside was dangerous or expensive.

Among them, there was a rumor going around that there was a magic cannon that could blow up an entire country.

I was surprised when he said he would give me something like that.

“Is what you just said true?”

“The bet is made by Derian, and you are more surprised than surprised. Did you not like it?”

“No. I did it because I couldn’t believe that I was allowed to take such valuable items.”

“Poop, Mr. Derian, you talk as if you have already won the bet. How is it? Do you really want to?”

“I will do it.”

The Glory Five?

This is an honorable position.

It is true that students in the class of failing students are not in a good position.

There was nothing else I couldn’t wear.

There is still one month left.

I wanted to give the students a break, but I couldn’t help it.

The moment has come to start the real hell training.

‘Let’s work hard, guys.’

It was all for the students.

●●●

After leaving the president’s office, I hurried to the classroom.

I couldn’t leave the students alone even for a moment in order to win a bet with the president.

I had to train them when I could train them even a little bit.

But when I arrived at the classroom, I couldn’t help but panic.

“Where did everyone disappear to?”

There were no students in the classroom.

While wandering here and there to find the missing students, I finally arrived at the vacant lot where I usually practiced and found the students.

There were two other students besides the ones I teach.

On the way to the teacher’s office, I ran into Elysia and Xenia.

“What are you all doing here?”

instant noodle scks tho

Everyone’s eyes turned to me at my words.

Elysia was the first to speak.

“Ah, Mr. Derean, we meet again. As usual, she was soon able to have a fun viewing, and she came just in time.”

‘An interesting sighting?’

“What do you mean by fun spectacle?”

At my words, Elysia smiled and said.

“Because Xenia said she would fight her brother!”

As she said, Zeke and Xenia stood facing each other in the middle of the clearing.

A brother-sister fight was about to begin.
