59 – Scene 059# Incident
*
again. again. again.
The sound of high heels strode across the hallway.
That look could never be called dignified, but Ariel Lizeshut didn’t mind.
That kind of thing is useless in the current situation.
The students who saw her terrifying expression opened their way on their own.
Ariel walked towards the large door at the end of the hallway.
Within a few steps from the door, she did not slow down.
I just roughly grabbed the air and shook it off.
Bang-!
The tightly closed door opened violently, as if an explosion had occurred.
“President!”
“… Professor Ariel?”
Mondri Cremont frowned at the sudden arrival of the visitor.
Mondry took off his magnifying glasses and asked Ariel.
“What is it that makes such a fuss?”
“Did the president know about the newly appointed chairman?”
“Ah, don’t you know.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me! When was it decided that the man would become the chairman?”
“Tsk… . lower your voice Professor.”
Mondry clenched his tongue and lifted his hand, closing the door.
While doing so, Mondry even cast a soundproofing spell.
With this, their conversation won’t leak out.
“Please sit there first.”
“President!”
“Whatever, if you want to talk to me, sit down. Unless you want to be a rude professor who came to the president’s office without knocking.”
“… Big hum. Excuse me.”
Only then did Ariel realize the rudeness she had committed and sat down on the sofa.
Mondry also got up from his desk and sat down on the sofa across from her.
“yes. How far have you been talking? Professor Ariel.”
“… Why the hell is that man the chairman?”
“You mean Count Ruelberta… .”
Mondry sighed heavily.
“Somehow it happened.”
“President. Why did you let that man become the chairman?”
“I found out about that yesterday too. Arthur only informed me without consulting me.”
“I beg your pardon?”
Ariel gritted her teeth.
She knew what kind of family Ruelberta was.
I know, but isn’t this too much?
“Even if you look at people funny, they are oil fountains! This is tyranny! Nothing from the board?”
“The board was silent. We practically agreed.”
“under! Guess who isn’t the scarecrows of Ruelberta? So in the end, did the former chairman make the decision alone?”
“Yes.”
The former chairman, Arthur Ruelberta, was a popular man.
He did not interfere much with the school’s operation, and helped to raise the status of Meikahel University with enormous support.
So, despite the notoriety of the Ruelberta family, there were almost no complaints from students and faculty.
“In the end, Arthur was also a Ruelbert who was a Ruelbert. What’s more, to hand over the chairperson’s seat to that man. What are you thinking… … .”
“Professor Ariel. I think a little differently.”
“Yes?”
At Ariel’s question, Mondry carefully began to explain what he was thinking.
“You may not know, but Arthur and the Earl don’t get along.”
“… Are you on bad terms?”
It was something that Ariel had never heard of.
Mondry nodded.
“That’s right. Arthur is also the guardian of Tristan, who became an earl at a young age. That’s why Arthur has been in charge of all the Ruelberta family’s business until now. One day, not only the chairperson’s seat, but all those positions will have to go to Count Tristan.”
“… So?”
“The Count is now an adult. But why is Arthur still not handing over the business to the Earl?”
There was already strong conviction in Mondri’s voice.
“Because I don’t trust the Count. From what I’ve learned, not too long ago, there was talk within the Ruelberta family that Tristan should be ousted from the position of count.”
“then… . I don’t understand more? How did you get the position of chairman when Tristan is such an unpopular man?”
“I don’t know that far. But in my opinion… . I think the Count put some pressure on Arthur.”
Mondry said, recalling the time he met Tristan not long ago.
The unusual coercion made even Mondri nervous.
He was a dangerous man.
It wouldn’t be strange if he exerted pressure on old Arthur.
Ariel asked in a trembling voice.
“then… . Did the Count blackmail Arthur and take away the chairmanship?!”
“That’s right. It’s just a guess, but that’s all.”
“What kind of a human being is worse than an animal… .”
Ariel trembled.
Because President Mondry’s guess was convincing enough.
Tristan was clearly more evil than she thought.
Mondry got up from his seat and stood in front of the window.
Mondri looked exhausted as he watched the freshmen out of the window.
Seeing that, Ariel opened her heavy mouth.
“Did you hear what the Count said at the entrance ceremony, President?”
“yes. have already heard I’ve been doing it since day one.”
“This is crazy. In short, you mean that the chairman will expel students at will, right? There are no tyrants.”
“I can’t help it. what can we do now we have no power Besides, you and I get paid by the Luelberta family. Is that all? Everything in this school has not been touched by Ruelberta.”
“Even if you paid for it, you can’t say that this school belongs to Ruelberta! This is a school, not the count’s playground. It should be rolled by students and our staff! I will definitely make it!”
It was an Ariel-like remark that was supported by many students at Meikahel University.
She could be called a true educator who puts students first.
Although he knew that, Mondri could only shake his head.
“Professor Ariel… . No, my pupil Ariel. As a teacher, can I ask you one favor?”
“Something…?”
“Count Tristan… . No, don’t get close to the chairman. And for now, let him do what he wants to do.”
“Yes?”
Ariel’s expression hardened.
It had been a long time since Mondry, her mentor and boss, had such a serious expression.
“The chairman has something to hide. The reason why I became the chairman of this school is likely to be related to that.”
Mondry looked at his old pupil with worried eyes.
“Ariel, you are capable. You have the most outstanding talent among my students. so… . I’m telling you to buy yourself. You should know very well what kind of family Ruelberta is.”
A ruthless family that does not choose any means or methods for its purpose.
Ruelberta’s power is so powerful that its limits cannot be measured.
so… . It’s not yet time.
Mondri warned Ariel implicitly.
Ariel was silent for a long time.
These were the words of Mondry, the teacher she admired most.
She was not a cold-blooded woman to the point of rejecting her master’s words.
“… I know. But if the chairman really wants to expel the students, he won’t stand still. I will go and protest.”
“Okay. However, you must report to me before that.”
Mondry sternly warned.
Ariel coquettishly crossed her long legs and leaned back on the sofa.
She answered while staring into the distance, not from Mondry.
“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind. Master.”

The road across the campus to the school gate.
I was seriously starting to worry about Wendy.
“Boo, it must have been just a while ago…” .”
Wendy cries and explains.
To sum up her words:
It seems that he met a friend named Luna at the entrance ceremony, became close with her, and even received an invitation.
“But it’s gone… .”
“… Right.”
“Count… . I-I’m not a liar… .”
… Did I not say anything?
I didn’t show it, but I was embarrassed.
Recently, Wendy has been quick to notice.
I was always expressionless to play Tristan, but strangely, it was difficult for this guy to sometimes read my real expression.
Concerned that the agitation might be revealed, I activated ‘Patience’.
And he said it in a very calm voice.
“Know. That you’re not lying.”
“I-I really am… ?”
“yes.”
That’s what I said, but I think I should give Wendy a vacation for the weekend.
After becoming an exclusive maid, Wendy had a difficult schedule.
From jogging with me at dawn, work at the mansion, and classes from Myoheil and Blanche, my body would not have been left.
It must have been quite a strain on Wendy’s mind.
Maybe making an imaginary friend at the entrance ceremony is the limit.
“I know a good hospital. I’ll take you later.”
“Nye?! Hey, you didn’t trust the Count after all… ! Hee… .”
Wendy looked up at me as if she had been betrayed, but I maintained my composure with ‘patience’.
It was then. An unexpected voice was heard.
“oh. Aren’t you the Count?”
When I turned my head, a beautiful woman with shiny silver hair was waving her hand.
“Princess Bella… .”
“It’s a coincidence. I never expected to meet you here.”
“… Long time no see. count.”
Unlike Bella, who smiled brightly, Blanche, who was behind me, ignored me with a disapproving face.
What is this stark temperature difference?
“congratulations. I heard you were inaugurated as the chairman?”
“yes.”
Bella seems to have just seen me take office as the chairman.
I didn’t expect to be the first to hear congratulations from her.
But, naturally, doubts arose.
why the hell is she here?
As if noticing my question, Bella said with a smile.
“oh… . It’s a coincidence again. I have been working here since this year. whooping… .”
“Are you working?”
I couldn’t help but tilt my head.
If I remember correctly, there shouldn’t be a scenario where Bella works at Meikahel University either in the original game or in the game.
Bella answered my question with a fresh smile I had never seen before.
“Yes. Somehow, I ended up taking a special lecture at this school. Although it was short, I got a job as a swordsmanship instructor. I wish you well in the future.”
“… … .”
My head started to get complicated.
Maybe something happened?
Obviously, with ‘Patience’, my emotions were calm like a lake.
But now I felt a cold sweat run down my back.
Then, Bella clapped her hands.
“Oh yeah… . You know what? count.”
“… ?”
Bella came very close to me and lifted her toes.
And whispered in my ear in a sweet voice.
“When coincidences repeat, they say it’s fate. whooping… .”
