I Possessed an Academy Without a Protagonist

Episode 27. Roman (2)

“Well······.”

I lifted up my clothes and looked at my stomach.

Although there was a scar about the size of a single node, that was all.

Even the internal organs were restored, so I didn’t feel any pain at all.

However, there is no energy in the body, so it is difficult to get up.

That was it.

“May 10th.”

I looked at the calendar and it looked like I had slept all day.

So, how did the class go?

“ah······.”

I remembered that the canceled elemental magic class was definitely included today.

driving me crazy. The current time is … 2pm.

Class starts at 6pm, so I didn’t have enough time.

Then I’ll wake up in a little while.

Dismantling large-scale fire magic while I was sleeping was my achievement.

I was going to hide it forever…

It is said that Alexia felt uncomfortable and analyzed the magic traces, proving that it was disbanded just before the large-scale magic was implemented.

And it was Iris who pointed me out as the main character.

Maybe he didn’t know and pointed it out, but he did it to make me in trouble. I guess that was the correct answer.

Alexia showed evidence that neither subtracted nor beaten, so even so, Iris’s claim had no basis at all.

But no one suspected that the saint could not lie…

In the end, I became a hero who stopped terrorism.

really messed up

Maybe I’m on the intelligence agency’s assassination list, too.

If Emilia wanted to, I could have killed her while I was sleeping.

Should I fire Emilia right now?

not. Then, who cleaned the rice and laundry?

It is rare for a slave to do such hard work for 100,000 won a month.

smart-

“···········?”

While I was thinking about it as I wrapped my hair up, I heard a knock on the door of the hospital room.

It was a while ago when I was bombarded with questions from reporters.

Who the hell is this time?

I took a deep breath and opened my mouth.

“Come in.”

“Excuse me.”

“······································································!

It was an unexpected person who opened the door and entered.

Tall tall in a black suit.

And he even looks so handsome that it’s hard to believe he’s middle-aged.

Roman was standing there just as I had imagined when I was writing.

“General Roman….”

“Shhh. I came without an escort, so don’t spread rumors too much.”

Roman took off his hat and smiled.

A human who hasn’t been out of the army for years.

There are not one or two people inside and outside the empire who are seeking his life, so he doesn’t go anywhere without an escort.

What kind of wind was blowing?

“What are you doing?”

“I hate to talk round and round, so I’m going to be straight-forward. First of all, thank you. For saving the lives of thousands of civilians, including me.”

“Yes······.”

“So that’s it. Do you have any plans to enlist in the military?”

“Yes?”

“Ah, of course, after graduating from Imperial University. I will commission you as an officer immediately after completing 8 weeks of training.

“············”.

It was a very sweet proposal.

If only I was an ordinary commoner.

It was an opportunity to rise to the ranks of the elite of elite soldiers in an instant, but it was not worth worrying about.

You can’t cross borders freely when you’re tied to the military.

When you go to meet Mine, or when you go to collect Kiyeon, there are restrictions on your actions.

“I’m sorry. I will decline the offer.”

“Is there no meaning in being a soldier?”

Roman showed a look of disappointment as if he was embarrassed.

He was not a human being who expressed his emotions outwardly, so it was quite a precious sight.

“Still, I’ll have to pay back. Shouldn’t I have to pay the price of my life? You can call me whenever you need me.”

“···········?”

“My lieutenant’s contact information.”

Roman held out a business card to me.

“No matter what, just once. Let me lend you my power. Don’t be afraid to call me.”

Roman never tells a lie.

Whatever it is… means that it really doesn’t matter what it is.

Even if they ask you to kill someone or to kidnap someone, they will gladly do it.

Unless it’s directly against the interests of the Imperial Army.

It was like receiving a wish.

It is the wish right of the most influential man in the empire after the emperor.

I’m going to save this and use it later.

“thank you.”

“by the way······”

smart-

Then Roman stopped talking and a knock was heard.

Roman changed his face in an instant and looked back.

He was holding a knife in his inner pocket.

is it an attack? The moment I wanted…

Drooling-

“Stop.”

“ah······.”

Erica opened the door and appeared.

someone did phew.

I thought I was going to be stabbed in the hospital room, and I was terrified.

“Is it Liechtenburg’s daughter? I’m sorry. It’s okay to loosen the boundaries.”

“General Roman….”

“Oh, you know me.”

“Of course. By the way, do you know your father, General?”

“Okay. He was a great guy.”

Roman put the knife back in, and the atmosphere suddenly became warmer.

Come to think of it, Roman and Erica’s father had been set to be friends.

Erica still only knows that her father was killed in battle, but Roman knows the truth.

The Count was driven into a limb due to the thorough calculations of the Imperial Army.

Since then, disillusioned with the leadership of the Imperial Army, Roman became the spearhead of military reform.

“Ah. I was so ignorant. Excuse me. Let’s make room for the young people.”

“yes?”

Roman smiled, put on his hat, and went out of the hospital room.

Still, Erica seemed confused.

The chance to see a war hero like Roman in person is rare, so it was a natural reaction.

“Why did you come?”

“that is······.”

When asked after breaking the silence, Erica began to cringe.

I thought Erica hated me.

I couldn’t even guess what had happened.

“Well, thank you.”

“what.”

“Actually, my mother was also at the Magic Day event. Thank you for saving my mother. I came to say that.”

Liechtenburg was there.

I tried to remember if I had written such a description, but I couldn’t remember anything.

Still, even if Liechtenburg was present in the crowd, there was no problem with the probability, so it was not particularly unnatural.

“Is it just words?”

“uh?”

“I’m asking if gratitude is expressed only in words.”

All of a sudden the playfulness started.

It was enough already to see the bastard Erica’s bewildered face.

Should I confess that it was a joke and step back now?

“Ah, no. I’ll do just one favor… it’s my mother’s lifesaver.”

An unexpected answer came back.

Is it the right to wish… or the right to request?

Unlike Roman, Erica will refuse unreasonable requests for one reason or another.

To what extent do you accept requests?

The playfulness intensified.

“Then I’d like to invite you to my house.”

“Huh? At my house?!”

Of course, this request will be rejected.

The Liechtenburg family is an aristocratic family with a long history, and they hate the commoners very much.

Maybe even if Erica is okay with it, I’m sure she’ll hate it, so I’ll turn it down.

. . . I thought so.

“Okay. Can we have dinner?”

“···········?”

The answer was acceptance.

This is really right.

“Why are you looking at me like that! That’s what you asked for!”

Erica blushed and screamed loudly.

Were we close enough to comply with such a request?

I carefully looked back on my relationship with Erika.

He heard my name the first time we met and ran away, and we met again in the library.

The next one is… Uh… Uh… Uhm…

‘What is it really?’

Other than that, there was no contact with Erica at all.

We didn’t even talk a few times.

It was just a motive that only knew faces.

But do you usually accept requests to invite you to your house?

“The date is this weekend… are you okay?”

“Okay.”

how are you

It was an opportunity to get acquainted with the future Elste class wizard, Erica.

Even if not, you can be treated to a delicious dinner.

I wasn’t stupid enough to kick my fortune.

“But can I ask you one thing?”

“You may ask.”

“With Iris… no. I want to quit.”

“···········?”

Erica hesitated and then shook her head.

what were you trying to ask

Without even giving her a chance to ask questions, Erica left the hospital room.

“What is it really?”

Was Erica originally like that?

I remember that I didn’t put the setting to be timid.

what’s wrong with how

*

I ate the food provided by the hospital.

One bowl is not enough, so about 3 bowls.

After that, my energy recovered a lot, and I was able to walk enough.

Since it’s Iris’ recovery magic, there’s no need to worry about the aftereffects.

I thought I could leave the hospital like this.

“Bur, will you be discharged from the hospital already?”

“Yes. I have class today.”

“No. The overhaul is still-“

“After taking the class, I will receive it at the Imperial University Hospital. Then there will be no problem?”

“Uh, um…….. Yes….”

Imperial University Hospital is the best hospital in the continent in name and reality.

So, since the facilities here are better, I won’t be able to tell you to get tested here.

I left the hospital behind the restless doctor.

He led his body with his still shaking legs and returned to the Imperial University.

The gaze from all directions was stinging.

It was a feeling that even more attention was focused on, even though I didn’t receive a kind gaze from the beginning.

This was the moment when I was going straight to the mansion because I thought I was going to have panic disorder.

“Have you already been discharged from the hospital? Schlus Heinkel!”

“Ugh.”

With a lively voice, spikes flew and landed on his back.

Rubbing his tingly back, he turned around and saw Sergei, who was there with a smirk.

“Please don’t hit me suddenly…”

“Uh-huh, I’m sorry! I’ve heard of all your activities! You fought with your bare hands against a man with a sword!”

“···········?”

It would have been more famous for breaking wide-area magic.

It seems that Sergei was more interested in the brawl with the Hurt Locker.

Guess who’s not a fighter.

In his former years, he was a person who won 1 to 17 without using a single drop of magic, so he said it all.

“As soon as the facts are identified, the school will proceed with the award of medals.”

“Are you talking about decorations?”

“Why. Don’t you like it?”

“············”.

it’s a decoration

There’s nothing bad about accepting it, but there really isn’t much that’s good either.

What about helping a little bit in your career?

Is that enough?

“No. I will. But what kind of medal is it?”

“Make sure to check it yourself when you receive it! hahahahaha!

“Ouch.”

He was only released after being beaten in the back by Sergei a couple of times.

Now I really have to go straight to the mansion.

My body hasn’t fully recovered yet, but I don’t want to get involved in troublesome things.

“Are you back! I was very worried, Mr. Heinkel!”

“············”.

As soon as I opened the door, Emilia ran out and met me.

With tears in my eyes

hey It was such a great performance that I was deceived.

In fact, I’m sad that I didn’t die.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t visit you. I was protecting the mansion….”

“I understand.”

“Are you all right? I heard that you were stabbed, but can I be discharged from the hospital already?”

“No problem at all. But-“

Emilia’s method acting is second to none.

what the hell is that

“What are those two?”

“What is it? It’s a little sad.”

“Excuse me for a second!”

On the sofa in the living room, Iris and Trie sat facing each other.

Since when did my mansion become a resting place where people come in whenever I am bored and go to rest?

A sigh leaked out.
