Disguised As A Teacher In Magic Academy

Chapter 13 - Fake Job (3)

The man was like a calm lake with fog rising at dawn.

He was firm, cold, and calm.

Just as the calm surface of the lake was unshakable, his every action was restrained, calm, and meaningful.

Even when he closed the classroom door …

Even when his shoes went up to the podium…

Even when he put the papers on the table…

There's no sound.

Silence swept through the entire classroom like ripples on the surface of the water.

"Oh…"

Even the noisy aristocratic students were swept away by the atmosphere and shut their mouths.

The calm students stared at the main character standing on the podium with sparkling eyes out of curiosity.

The suit that was suitable for his tall and handsome figure did not have the slightest frown of the black suit coat over it was increasingly fitting with his body.

It was a classy outfit, but it didn't seem too flashy.

When the man took off the silk hat on his head and threw it lightly, the hat gently flew towards the hanger at the corner of the podium and sat down safely.

With a series of gestures that seemed so natural, his face that had been hidden behind his hat was finally revealed.

He had a sharp jawline and a straight nose bridge along with unwavering eyes.

His strong yet charismatic eyes were sharp enough that he did not look like a new teacher.

His hair which is fairly long for the size of a man is tied neatly behind the neck.

Gulp down.

The few noble students who were secretly talking behind his back were overwhelmed by his strength and gulped without even realizing it.

"It's nice to meet you. My name is Ludger Chelysie, and I'm a new teacher at the School of Science."

As he opened his mouth and raised his voice …

It was like pouring water into a calm pond and leaving a wave.

The atmosphere of the classroom that was once quiet, again became so noisy.

"I'm not going to start classes right away because it's the first day of school. However, I'll make a notification first before that."

I slowly hung the coat I had removed on the hanger.

It is not difficult to continue the conversation. I just have to recite the words that come to my mind at the right time.

It was like some kind of charade.

'I am an actor on stage, and the students are the audience.'

'All I have to do is follow the flow in harmony and resume the monologue naturally.'

All the scripts are in my head.

"My class is about casting magic, but I'm not going to teach you the same magic casting as the one in the book. I'll focus on applying magic in real life beyond principle, a little closer to actual practice."

As I skimmed through the audience, I could see some people jerking their shoulders.

That's a good reaction.

Since there were soldiers who had also become teachers in the past, none of the students thought it strange for me to maintain such a sharp tone and eyes.

"And not only the second year, but the first year can also register for this class. In other words, this is a combined class for the first and second year."

My words started to stir up rumors everywhere.

All the students gathered were second-year students, so it was no wonder they were confused.

However, it is not impossible because there is no school rule that classes should be divided by year.

As soon as the noise subsided, I opened my mouth at the most appropriate time.

"Stop."

The noise within the classroom disappeared in an instant.

Everyone's eyes were staring at me again.

"As a second-year student, it's natural to complain about having to take classes with first-year students. But don't worry. I won't teach first year basic things to learn just because I consider that they're beginners."

Those words were greeted with a relieved response here and there.

The teaching method of the Soeren Academy is more like a university than a high school when compared to the Earth system.

However, it was not entirely the same as a university, so it could be said that it was a little jumbled up. The reward and penalty points system is a typical example.

Soren students choose the courses they want to take according to their specialization and take SKS by completing the courses.

Students there are called prodigies wherever they go.

Even in the first year, there is no significant difference compared to the second year. I decided to focus on that and do classes together for the first and second years.

Wh why?

Because when the second year comes together, it is inevitable that stories about their teachers will be spread.

The curiosity and the main topic of the second year, who had known each other enough for a year, must have been me, their new teacher, not their classmates, who was one year with them.

But what if new students who just entered the school take the same class?

Second year attention will be focused on their juniors in the first year.

Then the number of people talking about me will definitely decrease.

There may be complaints, but they won't fuss any further.

The existence of the first years was a kind of smokescreen and sea wall that made me not doubt my qualifications as a teacher.

"Why did you let a freshman take this class as well?"

Someone raised their hand and spoke.

Looking at her, she was a girl with long wavy blonde hair all the way to her waist.

Her unshakable eyes that looked at me had a strong sense of truth.

The people around him recognized him and they talked to each other afterwards. 'What? Is he a popular kid?'

Looking closer, he looked familiar.

'That face. I've seen it somewhere.'

'Someone who makes me restless when I think about it ....'

Because I was asked a question, I decided to answer it.

"Because I think they need a chance too."

"What do you mean by 'opportunity'?"

"I think it's a pity that only the year chosen can take my classes. There is never a right attitude as a teacher. Give the same instructions to everyone regardless of their year ... That's what I think."

Well, he'll ask why I didn't mention the third year and higher afterwards.

Of course they can take my classes if they want. However, it can be difficult for third-graders to digest the important subjects they have learned immediately.

Actually, I can only afford to pay until the second year.

"Of course, that means my classes are not year-restricted. I'm sure it must be different from the existing system."

Well, it's not like I just said it without thinking.

I made sure I was ready for class.

For a peaceful future, I refer to some of the tips I have, so there is nothing I cannot do.

"It's hard to understand unless you explain exactly what class it is."

“If you are curious, just come to my class. It's not nice if I tell you earlier."

As I spoke while deliberately stirring up his curiosity, a small frown formed on his forehead under his blonde hair.

'Sorry, but I don't mean to tell you what I'm going to teach you soon.'

'Instead, I will make you feel impatient and more curious.'
