I Became a Professor at the Academy

97 – Small pleasures (1)

“just now… … .”

Baek Ha-na’s gaze, which had been blank, looked down.

Before he could say anything to the fairy who was making a grumpy face, the fairy with her hair growing to her waist opened her small lips.

– Mine!!

Once again, the clumsy child’s voice echoed through the garden, and Hana Baek, who had the fairy in her eyes, opened her eyes wide.

match-!!

Baek Ha-na, who was about to take some action toward the fairy, flinched at the sound of my applause and turned her head this way. I said to the rest of the children and Claire, who gradually turned their heads toward me while receiving a hundred gazes.

“When you are done, wash up and prepare for lunch. Claire. you also.”

Unlike Claire, who weakly nodded, the children just looked at me blankly, as if they hadn’t come to their senses from the sudden situation.

“One hundred and one.”

“… … uh?”

The guy who was looking at me and the fairy below fixed his clear eyes on me only after his name was called.

“Don’t be idly by, go in and wash.”

“Uh, uh… … .”

“And.”

“uh?”

Baek Ha-na, who was about to turn around to wake the children in a daze, looked back at me in embarrassment.

“I didn’t call you.”

“ah… … .”

Hana Baek scratches her head with a shy expression.

I shook my head once and grabbed the little rascal who was looking at me unexpectedly with magic.

-Pun?!

It has been able to speak human language, but in sudden situations, it seems that fairy language jumps out as well.

“It sure looks like it has grown hair.”

-… … .

Normally, the guy who would have made a fuss asking to be released flew into my hand very calmly.

“You’re crazy, so let’s break up in the garden.”

After saying that, I closed the window.

After those gathered in the garden dispersed.

-Beep~

The guy who was quietly captured by me is now sitting on the desk eating the essence of the Slime Queen.

-Byeah~ Knock it off!!

“… … .”

The fairy spat out a small burp and opened her small hands to me.

It looked very arrogant, but I took another essence from the drawer and gave it to him.

-Thank you!

As he gave me his 4th thank you, he started pushing the black jelly into his mouth again.

‘I don’t know.’

Except for the fact that his hair grew longer, his body did not grow at all. However, through the presence of the guy who spoke human language and was as precarious as a candle in the wind, I could see that the time had come earlier than I thought.

The problem is that he only had about a year at most. However, his change was not at a level that could be explained by just one year.

It still maintains its existence even though it has advanced more time than it has left. That is exactly what I questioned.

-It’s bad~

The one who ate the 4th essence in an instant belched again.

“Do you need more?”

-Ganchana!

He wiped his smaller lips with the back of his small hand and stood up from the desk. Then it flew on its own and landed on my palm.

“What.”

-Turn it off.

His little hand pointed at my glasses.

I thought I gave up, but as my hair grew, I became interested in it again.

“If you want to take it, take it.”

-Nope! Use the blood business!!

The guy with a somewhat pouty expression lightly tapped my palm with his small feet. It seemed to give me strength, but it didn’t tickle me.

– Ask me!

“… … .”

I can speak the language, but I can’t seem to express what I want to say because my words are poor. But it wasn’t too difficult to figure out what he was trying to say with just those meager words.

‘Did you want to see my eyes, not the glasses?’

I thought about it for a moment, then pressed the convex cheek of the guy who was puffing out his cheeks rudely.

-Poo~

Push on one side, inflate the other cheek.

How is it that he is copying the old Baek Ha-na?

Children seem to resemble each other, regardless of you.

“Afterwards.”

– Beep?

The boy, who had been turning his head crookedly, opened his eyes wide and raised his head. Although he had grown up ahead of time, he was still a young fairy.

“I’ll show you when you’re useful.”

– What to write?

He nodded once to the guy who tilted his head.

“therefore.”

-beep?

I asked as I set him down on the desk.

“How much is left?”

He was just like that now.

“professor… … .”

Claire opened the door to the study and came in.

“… The preparations are complete.”

She said that while glancing at the fairy sitting in front of me.

“Looks like you noticed a lot. Seeing that you came out an hour earlier than usual.”

Or maybe it’s because the guy I always went in with fell out of it.

I grabbed the guy who was sitting with my back to Claire with my magical power and turned it to the front.

“You must have something to say.”

-… … .

The guy who was sitting on the floor glanced up and looked at Claire.

-Jja… … .

“… … ?”

The guy who was silent for a moment opened his small lips again with his fingers wiggling.

-I’m sorry… .

“… … !!”

Claire’s eyes widened.

It is a reaction that anyone can see that they are surprised.

“Claire.”

“… … ah!”

When I called her name, she let out a short sound and regained her senses.

“Ah, that, ah, no. it’s okay… . Yes… … .”

-It’s crazy… … ?

“… Yes. It’s really fine.”

A faint smile appeared on Claire’s lips, and only then did a bright energy rise around the gloomy fairy.

– Wow~!

“ah… … .”

As the fairy clung to her cheek, Claire wiggled her hands, not knowing what to do.

I watched the two of them for a while, then slowly got up from my seat.

“Stop going.”

“Ah, yes, yes… .”

“You too, do it in moderation.”

-Pun?!

I grabbed him with magic and threw him into Claire’s apron pocket.

After roughly tidying up, I left the study with Claire.

-Jjongko!!

As soon as he saw the table, he spread his wings and flew over it. Then, he went into the cookie basket, which was no different from his reserved seat, and took his seat.

“One hundred and one.”

“Yes?”

Baek Ha-na, who had been secretly looking at the fairy while looking at her, raised her head in a start. I lightly flicked my hand at the frozen children.

Hoo-wook.

“Wow?”

“Uh, uh… … ?”

“Ugh~”

“Ugh!!”

Each of them just blew air into their wet hair, and the reactions were very different.

“I would have told you to dry your hair properly before coming out.”

“hehehehe… … .”

I shook my head and sat down.

Then, Claire set down a slightly different colored stew in front of the children. She seldom improved her skills in other dishes, and eventually began to change the stew she was most confident about.

“Listen.”

It wasn’t until after I picked up the spoon that the children started eating the stew.

Normally, it would have been quite a noisy time, chatting lightly and playing pranks with the fairies, but probably because of Claire’s behavior in the garden, everyone seemed to be concentrating on the meal without opening their mouths.

“Idni, Lee Na-young.”

“Yes, four?!”

“yes… … ?”

After the meal, two of the children standing up from their seats turned their heads in shock when I called their names.

“I have something to tell you, so please sit down.”

“Ah, I see!!”

“… Yes, yes.”

“And one hundred.”

I sent the fairy who was watching me in the basket to the guy who was looking at me stealthily.

– Beep?!

“Wow!!”

Hana Baek grabbed the fairy with both hands with surprised eyes.

“Take him and play with him.”

“Uh, uh, yeah… … .”

With the fairy rolling her eyes round and round, Hana Baek left the kitchen with Maria.

I said to the two sitting with a very nervous face.

“You don’t have to answer, just listen.”

Using magic, I lifted the bag tied around Idni’s waist onto the table.

“It was given to you by the fairies, so you are free to use it however you like. Making a potion like this shouldn’t be too much of a problem.”

I put the bag on the table and put it back on Edney’s lap.

“However, you must never give the resulting product to a fairy. If you understand, please nod your head once.”

The two children swallowed once and nodded.

I didn’t have to tell you why, so I nodded my head.

“The story ends there. You can stop.”

“That, then.”

“Excuse me ah… … .”

The two bowed their heads at me and quickly disappeared from the kitchen.

“Claire.”

“… Yes.”

Standing a little further away, she came to my side.

“If you have something to say, go and do it.”

“Oh, no… … .”

she said, shaking her head.

“… You’re a smart kid, so I’m going to fit my behavior during the day into what you just said.”

“I don’t think so.”

He said it was okay, so I didn’t recommend it anymore. instead.

“Then, bring some snacks and put them in your room.”

“Snacks, you mean… ?”

“If you don’t like it, it’s okay to have a cup of tea with me in the study.”

“That, ugh… … .”

After thinking for a moment, she lowered her head and turned to the cupboard.

“… He often finds sweets, so I’ll make sure to get them for you.”

“So be it.”

I walked to the study, leaving behind Claire taking out chocolates from the cupboard.

**

Inside the study, where silence fell.

I leaned back in a chair heated by the sun and took out my smartphone.

Then, I went into the address book and clicked on the name of the third person registered.

-Yes. professor. I got a call.

Just before the beep sounded twice, Sungwon Kim’s voice came through the small speaker.

“What I ordered to finish by next spring.”

-Ah, you mean the list that suddenly grew up or became a scholarship student?

“Let’s finish it within this month.”

-… … Yes?

A very upset voice.

“If it’s difficult, it’s okay to say it’s difficult. You can find any number of people who will work for you.”

-Ah, ah, no!! ha ha ha!! this month!! Yes!! Go, it’s possible!! All you have to do is pick a person from the list, how difficult is that!!

“It is this month. Trust me and wait.”

-ha ha ha… … . Trust me, Kim Seong-won.

Leaving behind the man’s trembling voice, I ended the call.

To be honest, since the deadline has been pushed forward by 8 months, the accuracy will be much lower than the original result. But I’ve found a better replacement for it, so that won’t be too much of a problem.

Squeak.

I opened the third drawer of the desk.

The ‘Balance of Sacrifice’, emitting a soft golden light, is lying flat on the bottom of the drawer.

After groping for a moment at the mysterious energy felt there, she sealed the drawer again using magic.

“… It will be an unforgettable summer.”

To everyone who had a relationship with him.

This summer will be a special time.
