I Became an Extra Who Died Instead of the Main Character

28 – Aftermath (1)

The mentor assignment, which had many problems and incidents, ended like that.

Class 1 students and their mentors who went into the forest returned safely to school.

It was almost a big deal, but everything turned out well.

“···”

As she is the principal of the academy, she couldn’t be more pleased with the tower of papers piled up in her principal’s office.

“A monster…”

A monster in an academy that teaches students who should be the safest.

I wondered what this was.

“There were really monsters in it!”

“Don’t talk nonsense about monsters in this day and age.”

At first, everyone didn’t believe the students’ words that monsters attacked them.

“Um…Is that a real monster?”

“···”

However, for some reason, the corpse of a huge monster remained in the very center of the forest, where nothing was left clean.

“······Is this really Professor Tillion?”

“I think so, Professor.”

The professors, who directly witnessed Professor Tillian’s dead body next to him with his head turned, finally trusted the students’ words.

“······I should have paid more attention earlier.”

In fact, as the principal of the academy, she was aware of the fact that Professor Tillian was strange, as she had watched other professors.

That she doesn’t like nobles in the first place, and that she’s trying to be liked by commoner students.

“I never thought he would summon a demon and try to kill all the students.”

But she didn’t expect that Professor Tillian would have such a big accident, but she did.

“Haa…”

This huge incident that started with Professor Tillian had the effect of greatly increasing her work.

Thanks to this absurd fact that monsters have sprung from the best academy in the empire, protests have come from all kinds of noble families.

“I’m sorry. I’ll pay more attention when I get a professor from now on.”

Because of that, she, the principal of her academy, even made an apology herself.

Nevertheless, the Selenium Academy had to take responsibility for the fact that freshmen who had been enrolled for less than two weeks had to go through such a harsh experience.

“How do you guarantee that this won’t happen again in the future?”

“Please send my son back to his family immediately!”

Among the noble families who cherish their children, there are those who are trying to bring their children back to the family even now.

To placate parents of students who have stopped trusting Selenium Academy.

So, she put in a super strong water that her parents couldn’t help but convince.

“In order to restore the trust of parents, our academy will hold an open class for the first time.”

At the word that the academy’s classes were open, interest poured in from various places, not just parents who sent their children to the academy.

There has never been a class released at Selenium Academy until now.

It’s not uncommon for other academies in the empire to open students’ classes.

Since Selenium Academy opened, even the ‘ball’ in public classes has never been taken out.

The fact that there has never been an open class so far means that no one has questioned the class at Selenium Academy.

That said, I’ve never had such a big problem.

That’s why this incident made no sense.

As the parents all faded away as if they were going to step down at the word of an open class, this time, attention was drawn to the other side.

“Then who the hell was the student who killed Professor Tillion?”

“That’s…”

Who was Professor Tillian who summoned the monster and the student who defeated the monster?

Does such a genius exist at Selenium Academy?

Everyone was eager to get that fact out of her.

“······It is inside the academy, so we can’t tell you.”

She evaded her answer by making an excuse that it was an internal affair, but she was also curious and was going crazy.

‘Who the hell…’

Professor Tillion is rated as the lowest in magical achievement among the academy professors, but even though he was the lowest, it was Professor Tillion who reached the 4th circle.

Beside it, there must have been a huge monster that would pass out just by looking at a corpse.

‘Can I… Win?’

She’s a 6th circle vs mage, so I thought she wouldn’t win easily either.

She was very anxious to know the identity of the student, since her point of view was different from that of other people.

I was so curious that I even asked the students who had woken up after returning from the forest where they were supposed to rest.

“I… Passed out because of the monster…”

“Professor Tillion? Was it Professor Tillion who did this?”

“I’m fine…”

There were students who didn’t see the situation itself because most of them fainted, or even realized that Professor Tillian was in the dark.

“Haa…”

She honestly didn’t expect it at all.

She wasn’t without anyone expected to have beaten Professor Tillion.

Three students she had her eyes on from the time she entered school.

“······Adele Listonia, Stella Dragnis, Lian Kindred.”

At least these three people.

Of course, these three were not the level she thought she could defeat Professor Tillion and the monsters, but at least she had more potential than her other students.

I could have asked why the sophomore mentors were not included.

Having seen the sophomores much longer than these three new freshmen, she could say for sure.

Of the sophomores who went to the forest, there was no one who could beat Professor Tillian and the monsters.

So I visited these three people one by one.

“······It’s not me.”

Adelistonia, the first one she visited, only repeated that she was not herself, but she did not say anything else.

“Then do you know who it is?”

“···”

When she asked again, all she got back was silence.

‘······There is something.’

She seems to know something, but I didn’t think she would say it easily.

Are there any circumstances that I can’t tell you about?

“Whoa… I get it. It must have been a lot of hard work for a student in Listonia too, but I’m sorry for asking such a thing.”

“······It’s okay.”

After that conversation, she neatly gave up trying to find out anything about Adele, and then Stella Dragnis.

“Perhaps, Miss Dragnis…”

“If you’re looking for the student who killed Professor Tillian, I’d like to tell you that I’m not.”

Stella responds that she is not herself, as if she expected it, even though she didn’t say all of her words.

“···”

She was at a loss for words.

“How can I believe…”

She tried to refute how to believe it because she felt bad about being ignored.

“Student Magnus passed out with me, right?”

“Uh…? Uh…”

“···”

At some point, Magnus Firewall, who approached Stella, sympathized with Stella’s words and failed.

Of the three suspicious people, the most suspicious was Stella Dragnis.

There was no room for doubt anymore after raising witnesses like that.

‘······It’s not even a lie.’

I thought he was lying, so he used false detection magic, but Magnus only felt the truth.

Her false detection magic doesn’t work unless her opponent has a higher level of her magic than her, or if she’s been subjected to her memory manipulation magic.

There was no way Magnus would be of a higher level than her 6th circle, and her memory manipulation magic was 8th circle magic that even she could not use, so of course it was impossible.

She didn’t like something, but she had to believe Stella’s words that she wasn’t.

“Then… Now only Lian Kindred is left.”

The last thing left was Lian, who was famous for something other than magic.

‘No matter how I look at it, it doesn’t seem like it.’

To be honest, of the three people I initially expected, the one I thought was the most hopeless was Lian Kindred.

It wasn’t that Ryan Kindred’s magic skills were inferior to those of the other class 1 students.

Rather, it could be seen as belonging to the middle rank.

But it was also true that she was not very good compared to Adele, one of the other two and her fiancée.

It was a great surprise that she used Inferno, the 4th circle magic, during her entrance exam, but honestly, it was more surprising that she passed out after that.

The reason I included him in Suspicious People was because I thought he might have been knocked down by powerful magic.

But since I’ve been asking two other people so far, I just thought that I wouldn’t hear much about Lian either.

It is doubtful whether he even woke up in the first place.

I was a student who already had an unknown disease, and I was even worried about whether something was really wrong with this incident.

As she walked like that, she arrived at her health room where Rihanna was.

Drreuk-

“Student Ryan? Are you awake?”

As soon as I opened the door, I called Lian.

“······Principal?”

“You’re awake!”

Fortunately, Lian was conscious of her, and she was excited that she might finally be able to answer her question.

“Student Lian, by any chance, knows who killed Professor Tillian…”

She was so excited that she forgot to ask if she was okay and got right to the point.

“······Excuse me, but could you please turn on the light?”

It’s dark, I can’t see anything, said Lian, who once again stumped her for words.

“······Did I hear it wrong?”

At first, I thought I heard it wrong.

Now it was midday, with sunlight pouring in very well through the windows.

“Yes?”

But when she said ‘yes’, she had no idea what was wrong with her.

“······I’m sorry. It must be hard, so please rest more.”

She promised to come back later and promised the next one.

“·······?”

By the time she left her health room, Lian had a puzzled look on her face.

“Originally, my body was sick because of the disease, but it seems that my mind went into trouble for a while as I went through hard things…”

This was all because of the crazy Professor Tillian.

Trying to kill students who aren’t even adults yet.

She was Principal Lapis, who closed the door of the health room and moved forward, thinking that she should at least attend the adjutant.
