The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Under the student council president election (4)

The average number of items on the agenda at academic meetings has nearly doubled. That has to be the case.

While the academic schedule is proceeding normally there are a lot of unpleasant incidents that have occurred within the academic institution and an annual schedule must be prepared. However this should not lead to a decline in the quality of classes or neglect of student management.

Because of this situation all professors in the academic department from senior professors to junior professors had to work with less sleep.

Academic meetings used to be held once or twice a week but the work status had to be updated each time and the situation changed so frequently that the cycle was brought forward to once every two days.

For faculty and staff these times have been almost hellish.

“The investigation into the death of Ed Rosstaylor is also coming to an end. The investigation into the circumstances is almost complete and we are confident that the real culprits are vassals of the Ross Taylor family. Since Sylvania is just an educational institution the punishment part should be transferred to the imperial family but first we need to confirm the facts and report them.”

With Principal Obel Forcius at the center senior and junior professors from each department were all sitting together at the conference table.

Principal Obel sighed inwardly as he listened to Professor Flavin’s report.

If you hold the position of principal for decades you will experience all kinds of incidents and accidents.

Especially in the case of Ed Rosstaylor’s death… The background was obvious.

He has been excommunicated now but isn’t he a boy from the Rosstaylor family? Moreover if the real culprit was also a vassal of the Ross Taylor family it seemed almost certain that the murder was due to internal circumstances within the family such as various succession rights disputes or conflicts over interests.

It was the most headache-inducing case.

The incident itself occurred within the academy but it is very difficult to accurately determine the truth as it was most likely caused by internal strife among those in power.

First of all the Rosstaylor Mansion itself is physically very far away from Sylvania Academy and even if it could be investigated it does not have the authority to tamper with the empire’s most powerful family.

I have a strong desire to properly search for Tanya Rosstaylor the prime suspect who led the murder and is currently missing but… The current situation of having to watch the Ross Taylor family’s thoughts is also not very pleasant.

In the end all Sylvania Academy’s academic staff can do is to accurately determine whether what happened within the academy is true or not and transfer the incident itself to the imperial family. In the end the only institution that is in a position to evaluate a person with such power from a judge’s perspective is the imperial family.

I don’t know how things will work out after the transfer.

The relationship between the imperial family and the Rosstaylor family was always changing depending on the times so it was completely unknown what effect this incident would have on the overall political situation.

“I also checked the situation on site through salt sand magic. The weather at the time was not very good so it was not possible to recreate the scene exactly but witness Jenica Palover’s testimony was accurate to some extent. It has also been confirmed that the vassals stabbed the victim Ed Rothtaylor and caused him to fall over a cliff.”

“Then it is safe to say that death is almost certain.”

“If you fall off a cliff while being hit by extreme poison… “It seems certain.”

“Completely organize the facts and prepare to deliver them to the imperial family. “Be sure to receive approval before that.”

Professor Flavin lowered his head and answered that he understood.

Fellow professors looked at Professor Flavin with pity.

Professor Flavin a senior professor of monster ecology is already busy because the classes he teaches are very popular but as a result of a death incident that occurred while he was on duty in the teaching building he was forced to take on the responsibility of investigating.

The workload must have been enough to require two bodies but he handled it all without any problems except for the fact that he looked a little tired.

next… So is this the case of the attack on Ofilis Building by the top student of the year Lucy Mayril? I was too busy to attend the disciplinary committee… ”

“Based on the recommendation of the Maid of the Ofilis Hall a disciplinary plan was passed for 30 days of probation.”

“It’s a fairly light punishment. “Has the overall fact-finding process been completed successfully?”

“Yes I checked carefully.”

A conversation between Principal Obel and Vice Principal Rachel.

While the two top Sylvania undergraduate students were sharing their opinions the rest of the faculty in the conference room remained silent. There was no one with the authority to interrupt the conversation between the two.

“This was a personal act committed by Lucy a student who was deeply shocked by the death of Ed Rosstaylor. There were no casualties and there was some property damage. In addition there was some commotion as students evacuated in the middle of the night. In the end the job was successfully completed by securing the identity of Lucy who was sitting quietly in the rose garden while being intercepted.”

“You were stopped?”

Principal Obel Forcius knows Lucy Mayril’s magical skills quite well.

As a veteran of battles and equipped with both practical and academic experience he was evaluated as someone whose power could be compared to that of the legendary Grand Wizard Glokt.

The person that even Obel could not deal with without being nervous was Lucy Mayril the top student in the entire grade. A genius born of the times and the pride of Sylvania.

Among the students wearing the Ofilis crown or the management staff there would be no one who could stop that girl. If there was such a person there was no way Obel would not know about it.

yes. Clevious Nortondale a second-year member of the combat club defended the entrance to Ofilis Hall to the end. “We are preparing for recognition at the academic level.”

“Was he a student of that caliber?”

“It was a situation where we were overwhelmingly pushed back in terms of qualifications but it seemed like we were able to get through it with our mental strength.”

is it. “It’s definitely great.”

There were many students in the current second-grade generation who had exceptionally outstanding qualifications compared to other grades.

From Lucy Mayril Siggs Effelstein to Taylor McLaure Lortel Kecheln Ayla Triss Elvira Aniston Adele Seris… They ranged from those who received attention from the beginning to those who gradually proved their achievements over time.

Among them Clevious Nortondale was a man with a cowardly temperament that was too strong for his position as the head of the combat department so it was difficult for him to be included in the lineup… Due to this incident the evaluation has definitely been raised.

“Of course there have been many accidents in recent years but… Most of the time I think they are just side branches of a larger flow. More than anything… The impact of Ed Ross Taylor’s death is greater than expected. I didn’t realize it… “It seems like he was definitely a student who had an influence on many people.”

Obel sat down in a polite manner and summarized the situation. In the end the biggest trend was the sudden death of Ed Rothtaylor.

“The case of Ed Ross-Taylor’s death has been entrusted to Professor Flavin the case of student Lucy Mayril’s rampage was confirmed by Professor Altman and the case regarding student Clevius’ commendation is being led by Vice Principal Rachel? surely… “It is a case that grew out of a single stem but the work is handled by several professors so the work efficiency may not be very good.”

“That is certainly true.”

“Then wouldn’t it be much more efficient for one professor to handle it all? Is there anyone you can recommend as a suitable candidate? ?”

There was silence among the faculty.

Just hearing the explanation makes it incredibly annoying there are a ridiculous number of things to be responsible for and the process itself seems very complicated. It was a matter that no one could hastily say and say I will take charge of it.

“Hmm… I know a bit about student Ed Rosstaylor I have some contact with student Clevius and I also have contact with student Lucy… “Are there any professors at the Ministry of Magic?”

Within… The faculty’s gaze is focused to one side. Obel also shifted his gaze in that direction according to the mood.

A person sitting in a corner of the conference room blackening the corner of a document with a quill pen winces and raises his head.

Her flowing blonde hair goes over her shoulders and down to her wing bones. He was looking at the meeting scene in a half-dazed state but soon realized that it was his story and looked shocked.

“Uh.. um… ”

“Assistant Professor Claire… ?”

Should we say that we are truly human beings born with the blessings of God? He was already famous among professors.

There is no one better suited than her to begin with.

Just looking at the teaching assistants in that lab… From Annis the chief assistant to Onyx the master of flight magic Clevius the swordmaster of the Ed Rosstaylor Nortondale family who was the victim of this incident.

He is even a professor at the Ministry of Magic. In addition since he is the youngest professor there is no one more comfortable throwing work around.

I… hmm… uh… ”

With a half-crying face Claire racked her brain trying to find an excuse but all escape routes were already blocked.

Cold sweat was pouring out like a flood.

female… I’ll try my best to deal with it… !”

It was a death sentence.

*

“Why are you doing this only to me! I had barely finished all the work that had been pushed on me throughout the vacation and I was thinking of taking charge of my classes and living a more relaxed bachelor’s life… !”

A tall tower was piled up on Assistant Professor Claire’s desk with only the work documents transferred from Professors Flavin and Altman.

It seemed like it would take a year just to read it.

“This… How am I supposed to handle everything on my own? !”

Assistant Professor Claire buried her face in her desk crying. It was now an almost everyday sight.

“I really liked my time as a student… I want to live as a student my whole life… I don’t want this kind of hard work anymore… ”

The good news is that all of the assistant professors in Professor Clare’s lab are thorough and neat in their work.

Not to mention chief assistant Anis Clevius is inexperienced with paperwork but he is very good at handling practical tasks and using his body. Onyx was also a model student who was good at handling most tasks so the environment was much easier than other times.

Still Ed Rosstaylor is not there. It was sad.

Although he didn’t look like it he was a student who was quite bright and always did his work neatly. He had been plagued by some pretty bad rumors for quite some time but he didn’t seem to be having any trouble paying attention to them.

“Ugh… ”

Feeling confused for no reason Assistant Professor Claire sighed.

He looked into space supporting his chin with both arms and said words of lamentation.

“I guess we don’t know what will happen to people’s lives. Because we really don’t know how things will turn out in our lives… “You should always try to live each day with value.”

that… That’s a good thing… “Is that what Assistant Professor Claire is saying..?”

The person who answered was Clevius who had bandages all over his body.

Although he was injured quite a bit he was a naturally resilient person. Her body which had been devastated by the decisive battle with Lucy had already almost recovered and she was back to work as an assistant again.

In any case there are few things that can earn tuition as efficiently as teaching assistant work.

“Oh Clevius. Why are you saying that? I’m living a pretty hard life. Now look here. Just looking at this workload… ”

“Oh yeah… ”

While exchanging meaningless stories Assistant Professor Claire’s eyes suddenly turn to the other side of the work table.

The assistants placed a large square table in the center and organized the documents piled up in front of them.

Assistant Professor Claire felt a great sense of discomfort upon seeing Senior Assistant Professor Annis Haylan quietly drinking tea and reviewing documents in the corner.

“Anise… “I’m feeling low these days.”

yes? Me?

huh. Are you self-aware? “These days I talk a lot less.”

Anise stroked her light gray hair once and lifted the teacup to her mouth. The elegant appearance remained the same.

Everyone uses the same expression when describing Anis accompanying Clara.

Commoners who are like nobles and nobles who are like commoners.

Unlike Clara who was always bright and uninhibited Anis who maintained a gentle appearance no matter what she did had the elegance of an aristocrat even more so than an aristocrat.

However when working as a teaching assistant you confidently roll up your sleeves and actively engage in everything while being sure of the results… It was natural that all of her professors wanted to have her in their labs.

“I’m sure Ed’s empty spot will be very empty.”

“That…” ”

Anise who was drinking tea with her eyes half open blurted out her words.

The emptiness that Assistant Professor Claire talks about must be the emptiness of losing a colleague who worked as a teaching assistant in the same lab.

But Anise’s heartache was on a higher level.

Clearly Annis Haylan had a huge crush on Ed Rothtaylor.

Now I no longer doubt the fact that he was a fairly honest and capable man contrary to the rumors that he was nothing more than an idiot.

But Anise didn’t show her emotions even by biting her lower lip.

This is because I was not in a position to discuss things like loss and emptiness.

The person who was probably hurt more than anyone else was her best friend Yenica Palover.

This painful feeling rising up in her chest must have been infinitely feeble compared to the pain she would feel.

Anise somehow held back the moisture rising to the tip of her nose.

The image of him processing documents right next to me seemed to linger in the corner of my eye but now it was time to accept his absence.

It was a short relationship anyway. There must have been people better than him in the world.

As I consoled myself like that I pushed the suddenly rising sad feelings into my heart along with the tea.

Now is not the time to reveal your feelings of loss. To put it bluntly it was time to comfort Jenica who was in despair.

I was already planning to visit Yenika today. Even just imagining it would be a dark and emotionally difficult task… In times like these a true friend is someone who stays by your side instead of avoiding you.

Anise finished her work step by step wrapping up her rising emotions.

“I’m going to try curry today..!”

“… ”

Terrace seating outside Laplace Bakery.

Yenika who was carrying a lot of ingredients she had bought from the living room and putting them down one by one was talking to Anis with a bright smile on her face.

“Anis is a bit of a good cook right? what do you think about it? It’s a bit difficult for me to control the heat so I’m thinking of trying cooking over medium heat and boiling it for a long time… I’m good at preparing ingredients but I’m also a little scared to try cooking something I’ve never tried before… !”

“… ”

“Hmm isn’t it? Have you been eating too much hot food lately? However they say that reducing vegetable intake is bad for your health… “How about something like a salad?”

“Yes Yenika… ”

Anis stuttered out her words in front of Yenika who spoke softly with a lively face as if a flower was blooming.

“I guess I’m having a lot of fun cooking these days.”

huh? That’s right..!”

This is the sight Anise had in mind before coming to the bakery.

The images of a disappointed Yenika sitting with tears in her eyes reminiscing about her past with Ed all fell apart.

Yenica’s bright and lively appearance… Rather than a girl in despair she looks more like a newlywed who has just started married life. Yenika seemed more energetic than usual as she smiled brightly as if she was imagining herself happy.

Is this the right response?

What’s so fun is that Yenika is explaining in detail how high quality the ingredients she bought at a low price from the living quarters are… Anise was rather confused.

“Yenika that… I heard the news… ? “You heard that right?”

huh? News? What news? ah… oh… ”

Anyway it’s impossible not to have heard the news.

This is the most disturbing news circulating within the academy recently and if you look at the reports just compiled it was Yenica herself who testified about the real culprit of Ed’s murder.

Yenica Palover clearly knows that Ed is dead.

But what does that lively attitude mean?

Ed’s death will never have a light meaning for Yenika.

So what does Yenika look like now…

Suddenly goosebumps appeared on Anise’s body.

Yenika was good at cooking because she was dexterous but she did not enjoy cooking this much.

Even thinking about Yenika’s recent actions… It doesn’t seem that much has changed since before Ed’s death.

It appears to disappear towards the north of the island whenever possible. I could have thought that I would go see Ed before he died but… Nowadays there is no reason for Yenika to go to the Northern Forest so often anymore.

Coupled with her recent sudden interest in cooking only bad thoughts are blooming in Anise’s head.

Empty cabin.

An image of Yenika sitting alone in the camp holding a kitchen knife and chopping ingredients.

There is no one there to eat the food but they take out the food and serve it with empty eyes… It’s like he’s saying kind words that no one can hear.

Sitting alone at an empty table smiling soullessly… In this way the girl is repeating the useless return.

“Come to your senses Yenika.”

Anis suddenly burst into tears and clutched both of Jenica’s hands tightly.

now… That man isn’t there… ! He’s dead… !”

When I said those words out loud I realized that I was hurt more than anyone else.

For no reason my heart is filled with joy and my hands tighten as I hold both of Jenica’s hands tightly.

now… Accept it… !”

“Oh Anise… ?”

Anis said that and hugged Yenika tightly… It was only then that I realized it. The one he wanted to be comforted more than anyone else was himself.

“Just because you pretend like nothing’s wrong… Dead people don’t come back… !”

“… Ah Anise… ”

Yenika finally came to her senses… Once she did she suddenly hugged Anise and patted her on the back.

“… ”

[Miss Yenika is this correct now? ]

‘pee… Shhh… !’

Only then did Yenika realize that her behavior was a bit wrong… All I could do was break out in a cold sweat and be confused by the strange gaze of the spirits.

“The research undertaken at the academic level will also be completed to some extent.”

The location was the reception room of the royal family’s residence.

If you want to ask Princess Fenia for an immediate meeting you must be a person with a solid position within Sylvania. Of course not just anyone will meet you.

You have to be at the level of Lortel Keheln the real power of the Elte Company to request a direct meeting with Princess Fenia.

“It is very unfortunate that senior Ed passed away but we will have to deal with our academic schedule in our own way. Isn’t that right Princess Fenia?”

“So why did you come to see me?”

“I came to ask why you were hiding Tanya.”

Lortel’s speaking style of smiling and hitting the nail on the head is tiring to deal with no matter who you are.

Fenia miraculously maintained her calm expression but Lortel expressed the fact that she already knew everything.

“Do you know that all of Aken Island’s living quarters are in the palm of my hand?”

All commercial districts in the living area operate under the control of Elte Trading Company. It is already clear that all the money circulating there ultimately comes out of Elte Trading Company and returns to Elte Trading Company.

If the Tao puts all the money into its hands the same goes for the people who come and go within that money.

Lortel’s eyes and ears are spread out everywhere in this living complex.

It wasn’t difficult to guess Tanya’s movements by researching eyewitness information. From the beginning there was no physical evidence but the feeling was clear.

The place where Tanya can most directly ask for help is almost certain to be the royal residence which even the bachelors cannot easily reach out to.

Therefore if people are dispatched to collect information near the road leading to the royal family’s residence the outline can be clearly drawn.

Tanya’s refusal to know any other merchants or children from noble families who could have asked for help also played a decisive role in solidifying her feelings.

Tanya is being hidden by Princess Fenia. It is almost certain as the bachelor is still unable to determine his whereabouts.

Lortel had come to that conclusion from the beginning but he never told anyone about it. He even kept quiet about Ed Ross Taylor whom she loved dearly.

“You are saying something absurd. Lortel Kecheln.”

“The atmosphere at the school is chaotic isn’t it? The student council president election is coming soon so we need to finish all the noisy matters early.”

“Why is Miss Lortel looking for Miss Tanya in the first place?”

“To put it bluntly I personally still have a full report left.”

Lortel smiled elegantly and lifted the teacup presented by Fenia’s attendant to his mouth.

“As you know princess I am an opportunistic and petty person… “I am extremely weak to those I cannot touch but I am harsher than anyone else to those weaker than me.”

that… “It’s not something I’m proud to say with my own mouth.”

“It’s natural when you live your life by weighing your interests. A temperament that is infinitely weak to the strong and infinitely harsh to the weak may seem mean but if you take a step back and think about it isn’t this natural?”

Seeing the grinning smile made Princess Fenia feel very uncomfortable.

“The Rothtaylor family is so powerful that even the imperial family does not treat them carelessly but I wonder if its successor Miss Tanya is weaker than Miss Lortel… “Isn’t this something we need to think about more?”

well. “I am a person who judges everything only based on interests.”

Lortel does not give a single word to the princess.

“I’m just a merchant doing business on Aken Island right?”

Even though he is the son of an aristocratic family the position of acting chairman of Elte Chamber of Commerce is not an easy one.

If you’re fighting over the entire empire it might be more important to have the glory of the Rosstaylor family on your back… This is Aken Island which must be located quite far out of the empire’s territory.

People of noble status and high standing were spread all over Sylvania Academy. People like Princess Fenia and Saint Clarice are just unreasonably high and noble.

Sylvania the land of learning is a place where order runs in a completely different direction from the ecliptic and no matter what happens on Aken Island it takes two or three days for the news to reach the capital.

In two or three days… This is a period of time where it is not strange for a person’s fortune to diverge in any direction.

“I am a person who lives and dies by money.”

The fox laughs.

“And the living quarters of Aken Island are completely under my control.”

The true intentions are clearly visible to Princess Fenia.

Externally Sylvania is a land of learning where the virtue of learning resides. However if you dig a little deeper you will see that all the gold coins flowing here come from this girl’s wallet.

“So unless you are a human who can overturn the power structure on Aken Island… Who would I care about? Of course it would be a different story if it were Princess Fenia or Saint Clarice’s opinion. “How could I go against your two opinions?”

Although she says this with a lively smile Princess Fenia knows. Those words simply show respect for the imperial family.

If he puts his mind to it he can use all kinds of tricks to twist and ignore even the opinions of Princess Fenia.

If all of the central power of the imperial family were brought in it would be possible to subdue Lortel but Fenia the third princess would not have that much influence. Unfortunately this is a remote area where the influence of central power is relatively weak. If this was the imperial capital the position would have been completely opposite but that is a meaningless premise.

What is the meaning of power if it is a power that only receives a lot of protocol and is respected ceremonially because of its noble lineage? Princess Fenia narrowed her brows.

“So I found Miss Tanya… “I need to finish my ‘personal business.’”

“There is no reason for me to concern myself with Ms. Lortel’s personal affairs.”

Fenia first drew a line. Any further involvement would only further undermine her position in hiding Tanya.

In fact Lortel has emerged as a dark figure in the academic dormitory. I’m going to stop it somehow… In the end she needs real internal power that can reliably put pressure on her vested interests.

Only then will Lortel have a reason to take notice and a weapon to pressure her. for example… It is the power of the student council.

The student council president has the authority to suggest opening of stores or revising operating guidelines for various facilities within the residence hall and even the authority to suggest revisions to various customs clearance rules to coordinate the flow of materials.

In words it is the authority to make suggestions but in reality even academics cannot completely ignore the opinions of the student body president. The student council president receives support from students. This means that it is no different from receiving support from various noble powers.

“… ”

Lortel spoke up to that point and remained silent.

Tanya’s life is being pressured by Lortel. At least that’s what she thinks herself.

There is no telling when support from the Rosstaylor family will arrive. This is because unless Kadec and Nox are released the family will not be able to receive an accurate report on this situation.

However you cannot escape easily. All routes out of Aken Island are under Lortel’s control.

In the end Tanya is trying to survive Lortel… She has no choice but to become student council president.

It was the moment when that fact became clear.

*

Lortel finished his work came out of the royal residence and got into the carriage.

When the driver swings the whip the carriage slowly moves forward.

A smile flows out from under the covered robe and a soft light shines from the amber eyes.

Bachelor Jungkook becomes confused.

Lortel was the only one who had a complete understanding of all the pictures.
