ACADEMYS UNDERCOVER PROFESSOR
Walking alone in the dark hallway of the stadium, a person popped her head out from the corner as if she had been waiting.
First no, Professor Ludger.
Sedina, right?
Sedina Rochen, who had brown, volumized hair. She brightened her face the mont she saw Ludger, as she had been waiting for him.
After looking around for a while and checking if there were any other people, she opened her mouth when she thought it was okay to speak.
Congratulations on winning the bet.
Yes.
More than that, are you alright? Maybe youve gotten too much attention from inside the Academy because of this incident. The other mbers are worried as well.
The part that Sedina was concerned about was that.
Ludger was hiding in Sren under a false identity.
However, his recent moves had attracted too much attention in Sren.
In that case, no matter what he did, their eyes would follow him, which would significantly interfere with him in a long-range plan.
Ludger shook his head at her concern.
Its okay. I prepared myself for when it beca like this.
You prepared yourself
Sedina, do you know sothing about the principal of Sren?
Sedina nodded imdiately when the principals na ca out.
Yes. Her na is Elisa Willow. She is a famous wizard who achieved the 6th rank of Lexure class at a young age. Shes now the principal of Sren. Shes a woman whom you can never let your guard down to.
Yes. Shes currently suspecting .
Do you an Professor Ludger?
The principal is aware that our people are hiding in Sren. Maybe Im now on the list of her suspects, even if Im a professor.
That
I need to get rid of her suspicions now. Because of that, it will be impossible for to contact other mbers, but it cant be helped.
You ca here as a Professor so you could be less suspicious, though
It was sothing I had to do anyway. Its a profitable deal if I gain reliability from Sren through this incident, but we need a little more ti to do that.
As as expected, its like that. I believe in you!
Sedina, who had already been properly blinded by Ludger, believed Ludgers words without a question.
Actually, it wasnt a complete lie, either.
Ludgers behavior in which he distinguished himself in Sren was based on his intention to look good to the principal.
However, for Sedina, there were so concerns that Ludger might be receiving too much attention.
In fact, when she secretly listened to other mbers, there were even talks that said Ludger was a First Order but that he didnt have anything to do to the point that it beca weird.
Yes! As expected, theres no way Professor Ludger was like that!
She believed in Ludger, and she also wanted to believe him in the future.
It was the first ti
There had been a person who listened to her so well.
Having suspicions toward such a person itself felt like committing a cri that could not be washed away.
Sedina. The sa goes for you. Do your best as a student now, as you are now a student in Sren.
Is is that so?
Yes. You are the only one among the other mbers who can make easy contact with because Im a Professor, and you are a student. They wont doubt us just because we et and have a conversation, but I cant thoughtlessly et a student who has no actual business with .
Of of course.
You should make yourself prominent as a model student. The more you do that, the more suspicious eyes from others will subside.
I see!
Yes. In other words, its a mission just for the two of us to adjust thoroughly to our own identities in our own position. Do you understand?
A mission.. just for the two, of us.
Sedinas eyes went blank when Ludger used the word us.
Looking at her expression, Ludger thought that it was fortunate.
If Ive explained it to this extent, shell understand quite well, right?
He had been working hard because he was absorbed in his work as Srens professor. However, Ludger had never ignored the existence of the Black Dawn Society even for a mont.
In their eyes, he was nominally an executive who held a title of First Order in the Black Dawn Society.
The problem was that Ludger did not yet know what he had to do as an executive after he infiltrated Sren.
All he learned from the interpretation of the cipher was for him to infiltrate Sren and gain their favor.
And after that?
Had their original plan been decided, or was a new order going to be issued in the future according to the later situation?
Ludger didnt know that.
But he couldnt even ask Sedina. How could she know what kind of mission an executive had co for?
In the end, I have to figure it out by myself.
It was highly likely that he was directly ordered by Zero Order, or that another First Order was sharing the work with him together.
The way to find out right away was that he had to find another First Order who had infiltrated Sren.
However, in a situation where he couldnt find the other First Order, Ludger had to work as much as possible while clearing the suspicion of the Black Dawn Society.
That was why he deliberately moved more eagerly as a Professor.
Its true that the principal suspects , and its true that I need ti to clear her suspicions. Using that as an excuse, I can at least quell the growing discontent of the secret society.
And it was also possible to extend the deadlines that were given under this pretext.
In fact, even though he only explained it that way, Sedina seed to be convinced imdiately.
No. Cant she be a fair example because shes just extrely praising towards the First Order?
But it was okay.
If Sedina could go forward and explain it to the other mbers instead of him, it would be much easier for Ludger.
In fact, Sedina was already full of such thoughts.
As expected, Professor Ludger! We were worried that sothing might happen to him, it turns out that he had planned it all along!
Sedinas social status had led to similar bullying within the organization, but recently, the other mbers had stopped irritating her because she had been acting as if she was Ludgers full-ti subordinate.
That made Sedina respect Ludger even more, thinking that it was also a blessing.
Hes even worried about soone like and giving that kind of advice! Hes really aweso!
As Ludger had said that, Sedina decided to obey the order even after she died.
Explain it well to the others.
Yes! Just leave it to !
Ah, and
Yes! Do you have anything else to tell ?
* * *
* * *
No. Never mind. Ill talk to you later. And its nice to see you more confident than before.
Ludgers last complint gave Sedina a tingling and electrifying shock all over her body.
I will leave it to you.
Yes! I will do it even if I have to die!
Dont die.
Yes! I will never die even if I have to die!
Yes. Whatever.
Ludger left Sedina behind, who was becoming increasingly burdenso every ti he saw her.

Returning to my private accommodation, I entered the room and briefly summarized what I had to do.
First of all, through this open duel, I have extensively developed the image of being on the principals faction. I dont know how the principal herself will take it, but she has her own circumstances, so it will be hard for her to throw out.
For the mont, the principals faction seed to be more dominant, but the noble faction led by Hugo could not be looked down on either.
No matter what anyone said, the biggest force among the students was Freudens power, who had gathered the aristocratic students.
The aristocratic professors, including Hugo, had joined hands with Freuden.
The principals power seed strong, but if they properly opposed the principals will, it would be difficult for the principal to decide anything recklessly.
And thanks to the fact that I attracted the principals attention, I got the justification that, even though Im an executive of the Black Dawn Society, I still cant move hastily. Other mbers from the secret society wouldnt want to contact recklessly, either.
In other words, I got an exemption from doing anything in the Black Dawn Society for a certain period of ti.
So lets put off the Black Dawn Society for now.
As expected, is Srens side the most important thing?
With that open duel, I had turned completely hostile to Hugos faction.
But I didnt care much about that part.
I was going to quit after two years anyway. Being obnoxious to the aristocratic teachers wouldnt cause any major problems.
They would ss with a little unpleasantly, but it was only at a level of being cute compared to all the groups of people I had experienced in my whole life.
Most of all, I saw so kind of possibility through that days duel.
Aidan Ive felt it before, but hes definitely a good guy. He has a moderate sense, a moderate good side, and he is a hard worker.
It was just amazing that he had learned the Moving Magus in three days, although I had taught him a little intensively.
Was it his talent, or was it more like a tenacious effort?
Considering that a wizard couldnt fully master Moving Magus just because they were good at using their head, he might have been born with the ability to use his body as well.
His movent when he had cut the magic using Anti Magic
It was definitely a performance that one could see from soone who had trained with a sword before.
Considering that, Aidan was highly likely to stand out in a real battle.
Indeed. Thats understandable, considering who his teacher is.
It could be inferred because I had t a wizard whom I assud was Aidans teacher, well I was actually quite certain about it.
Aidans posture that he showed once was exactly the sa as the textbook example of swordsmanship that the person I was thinking of usually used.
I thought that hed live alone his whole life and die without a single soul knowing about him, but it turned out that he had gotten a disciple.
If Aidan is an Anti Magic owner, he will rise to a considerable position in Sren, at least.
I finished a simple calculation in my head.
I will use Sren and so special students to fight against the Black Dawn secret society.
As I was squeezed between the two with one foot on both sides, the last thing I needed was to increase the pressure that weighed down on .
The thing that bothered the most was the Black Dawn Society.
If I reduced the power of the society mbers in the Academy by squeezing their power little by little
Im sure my chances for surviving will be that much higher.
Aidan, Leo, and Tessie The abilities of those three musketeers were objectively worth evaluating well.
If I looked at the talent that they had, it could be the best amongst the first-years.
If I added Lynne, who had Judgnt Eyes, to the group.
It wont be bad.
Of course, that might not be enough, so it seed necessary for to look for more other people for assurance, just in case.
If I made them collide with each other, I would be able to get out of a dead-end.
Thats all I should do for the let the barbarians fight it out among themselves thod. I have to build up the strength on my side, too.
My situation was under pressure from both organizations and I, as an individual, was about to be crushed.
Simply weakening both groups couldnt be the fundantal solution to the situation.
So what was the thod?
I also have to make my own organization.
In fact, I preferred to move alone.
But as long as I needed to stay in the Empire, I could no longer do a solo play.
I needed more people.
In addition to Hans, I needed to call the people I had connections with before and create a new organization.
That organization would be my strength, and that power would make able to resist the forces that oppressed .
Talk of the Devil, and he is sure to appear, they said.
I was just thinking of him, and the crystal ball I left in my room began to sparkle.
The fact that the marble for personal communication that I handed to Hans rang it could only an one thing.
Hans. Whats the matter?
[I checked everything around the area according to your order.]
Was it because of that?
Considering your skills, youll have as much information as I would. And yet, since you contacted separately, it seems that you need so force.
[Youre so quick in catching it. You are right. From now on, I need so ard force. You knew it too, didnt you? That Im not good at fighting.]
I didnt expect anything from you in that departnt since the first ti.
[Anyways, I need your help now.]
I see.
It was not bad timing.
I got up from my seat, dressed in a black long coat for outdoor use, and wore a gentlemans hat on my head.
[So when are you going to co? I think well have to deal with it by the end of the week at the latest.]
Ill co right now.
[Pardon?]
Because he didnt know that Id say Id go right then, I heard a bewildered exclamation from beyond the crystal ball.
Dont you think its better to deal with it quickly?
[Thats that, but Are you going to be okay? You are so busy, though.]
Itll be over soon, anyway.
[How are you so sure about it?]
Because Im going to make it that way.
