◈ Episode 348: The wildcat beyond the fence (1)

Ludger’s special lecture on magic water quickly spread throughout Seorn.

This is because all the students who participated in the special lecture succeeded in summoning the magic beast.

Just as a baby will one day begin to walk, it was natural for a wizard to summon a magical beast.

But if that time is drastically shortened.

Then the story is different.

In Seorn, summoning magic beasts is learned only in the 3rd year.

The process also takes a fairly long time, from at least half a year to more than a year.

However, Ludger’s special lecture shortened it several times.

Of course, because of the excessive intensity at the beginning of the class, the students’ complaints were self-evident.

It was only natural that the [Akashic Records] would get a bad reputation, as the students, who normally struggled with sports, became covered in dirt and sweat.

Rumors circulated that Ludger’s special lecture would fail because of that.

There was even a person who encouraged it behind the scenes, so rumors had no choice but to ride fast.

‘Obviously it was. How the hell did things end up like this?’

As soon as the rumors were reversed, the ripple effect was just as great.

Hugo Burtegg sighed heavily in his private office.

I intentionally tried to ruin Ludger’s class, but Rudger rather successfully finished the class proudly.

Hugo couldn’t understand that.

No, if you have continued to succeed like this until now, wouldn’t it be okay to fail at least once?

How on earth could a human stab him like that, but he didn’t budge?

‘I can’t believe that even the children of high-ranking nobles adapted to that savage class.’

If you abuse your body to summon a magical beast, the first to rebel is the aristocratic students.

These are children who have lived their entire life receiving only good clothes, good food, and good treatment.

It had to be a flying bird, not a floor-crawling earthworm.

Didn’t those birds refuse to run on the ground covered in dirt?

In that class, there were the 3rd princess, the children of the Duke of Rumos, and Julia, the magic tower’s engineer.

None of them challenged Ludger’s lessons?

Ludgar Celish, did that man learn some kind of hypnosis?

okay. I’ve conceded a hundred times and I understand that far.

So he deliberately pressured some students into messing around in Ludger’s class.

But no one followed suit.

‘This makes no sense.’

Ludgar Celish, is there really something to that fallen nobleman?

Hugo was not convinced that the students followed Ludger wholeheartedly.

For him, education was not about teaching someone sincerely, but just a means to maintain his position.

Above all, the biggest problem facing Hugo was the current situation where his plan had failed.

‘I boasted that I could do well for him. Now maybe that’s good?’

Rudger Chelsea.

My teeth still grind when I think of him.

As if walking on a tightrope, the one who broke the balance that was just right at once.

The person who took over his position with overwhelming skills that no one could refute and left an indelible rift in the aristocratic faction.

I still can’t forget the humiliation of having to cut off the tails of the aristocratic faction with my own hands.

So, this job had to be successful.

‘What shall I tell him?’

Since he had failed this time as well, Hugo was just helpless.

Hugo’s clique has declined since Rudger took over as head of the planning department.

No one followed those who lost their trust.

There were quite a few people who still stayed by Hugo’s side, but compared to before, they were at a shabby level.

But Hugo, who had already tasted power, was not about to give up.

The sweetness of power once tasted gives a strong stimulus to the brain.

An excessively high threshold eventually breaks a person’s mind.

So did Hugo.

He was not the kind of person who could compromise or let go of what was in his hands.

If you lose it, you have to get it back.

No, I had to grab more than that to relieve my stomach.

So Hugo decided to borrow outside power.

The big hand who supports Seorn with a huge amount of money every year.

got in touch with them

The eldest hand welcomed Hugo.

It is because it is difficult for him to intervene if the president holds the power of Ceorn and goes out strong.

He needed a window to carry out his actions on his behalf, and Hugo was perfect for the job.

At that moment, the crystal ball placed in front of Hugo shimmered with light.

It’s finally here.

Hugo swallowed and poured his magic into the crystal ball.

he said in a loud voice.

“haha. I didn’t expect you to contact me so suddenly.”

[I heard it failed.]

Hugo was speechless at the words that came flying at him.

Cold sweat ran down his cheeks from the tension.

The office was filled with a heavy silence.

have to say something

“It is not a complete failure. There is still time left… … .”

[I also have ears to hear and eyes to see. Sir Hugo. It means that there are many people who are loyal to me other than you.]

The voice beyond the crystal ball was calm.

He didn’t seem particularly upset about this failure.

That’s why I’m more anxious.

Actually, what if you didn’t expect it from the beginning?

Hugo was once the head of a faction.

Having to bow down under someone else was only possible when you had to throw away a fair amount of pride.

He had to do anything to regain his former status.

So, he lowered his head and declared himself a subordinate.

Even after doing that, things went awry from the start.

“Oh, no. I can do better.”

[okay. it should be That’s because I didn’t put money in to support them behind the scenes.]

“Yeah, that’s right.”

[But I’m in trouble. Ludger Celish’s class was a success, and the dissatisfaction that had been growing inside has disappeared.]

For Hugo and his grandson, this field trip terror incident was a great opportunity.

Seorn did nothing wrong, but it was because he was given a justification.

None of the students were killed, but many were injured.

And the president is doing things unreasonably to coordinate the undergraduate course.

Where could there be a greater opportunity than this?

[Originally, I was going to apply pressure from the outside and shake the inside at the same time, but if this is the case, I’ll have to change the method.]

“Changing the way means… … .”

[What’s the big deal? I should threaten you with cutting the subsidy.]

“Is that possible?”

[Mr. Hugo Brutegg. Do you think I am the only investor in this case?]

At those words, Hugo’s shoulders trembled.

There is only one big hand talking to him, but there are far more investors who agree with his will.

In the first place, Seorn is not a place that is shaken just because one person shakes it.

A big-time investor?

As long as there is one such person, it doesn’t matter if they change.

There were many organizations that wanted to fund Ceorn.

“Aren’t you overdoing it, though? The president is never an easygoing opponent.”

Since ancient times, Seorn has been a place of learning for nobles.

It was a stepping stone that the privileged class had to go through.

But at some point, commoners started to come in, and now there was even talk of everyone being equal, regardless of rank.

There is no such thing as bullshit, but the current president, Elisa Willow, made it possible.

That’s why her skills are so outstanding that she sticks out her tongue.

Although Seorn is greatly shaken by this terrorist incident.

Elisha bribed reporters and controlled the press, clearly showing that she was healthy.

In such a situation, would it be a surprise to hear that outside investors were attacking?

[this. Sir Hugo. I guess you misunderstood me. what did i say I’m not alone in this.]

“yes. But even taking that into account… … .”

Hugo stopped talking.

“… … Are there any more?”

When asked if there were more, it was a question of whether there was another big hand of a similar size.

Even if one big hand and several small hands escape, there is no big blow.

But I have two big hands. Or, if there is another supporting force, the story is different.

Whether it was the answer or not, laughter came from beyond the crystal ball.

Hugo swallowed and asked.

“… … But why are you even doing this? Aren’t you already seeing significant profits as an investor in Ceorn?”

Investors receive benefits in return for supporting Ceorn.

As much as there is something to give, Ceorn also gives appropriate compensation.

[Miss Hugo. I mean, investing is an action to get everything back in the end.]

“It is, it is.”

[You get a profit as much as you invested a lot of money in Seorn. If that’s the case, it’s good to hear from great investors. Then, what do you think you need to do to become a great investor?]

“yes? that’s me too… … .”

It’s not that Hugo doesn’t know about investing, but he spared his answer because he was lacking a lot compared to the other party.

[I’m going to swallow it right away.]

I could feel the joy in the voice of the big hand.

[Respect the other party, give and receive each other, and seek benefits. It’s good. It’s ideal. But it’s too easy. To be a truly great investor, you should rather make the other person your own. It is not giving and receiving, but only receiving.]

Hugo groaned inwardly.

So, this person is saying that he wants to make Seorn his own and take control of it.

‘no. But if we work hand in hand, it’s not impossible.’

Although he couldn’t swallow Seorn right away, it would be possible to exert influence gradually.

It is difficult to penetrate once, but it is not difficult to gradually widen it the moment you open a path.

[Sooner or later, you will hear some interesting news. At that time, I want you to shake it well from the inside.]

“yes. All right.”

The transaction between the two of them proceeded quietly.

* * *

Rudger shared a meal with fellow teachers after a long time.

“Mr. Rudgar, it’s hard to see your face these days.”

At Merilda’s playful words, Ludger silently nodded.

“It happened.”

“How is the magic beast summoning special lecture? Is it worth it?”

“yes. Students are doing well.”

“Be humble too. Just because students do well doesn’t necessarily mean they do well, right? right? Miss Selina?”

“yes?”

When the arrow suddenly returned to her, Selina, who was eating rice, shook her shoulders in surprise.

Merilda asked pretending not to know.

“Miss Selina also teaches summoning spirits, right? As a teacher of the same summoning class, I wonder if there is something I can sympathize with.”

“Ah, that… … .”

Only then did Selina realize how she should talk to Rudger.

Then Bruno, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

“Have you heard of that? He said that the outside of Seorn has been noisy lately.”

Selina, who was about to say something, had no choice but to shut her mouth again.

It was not uncommon for Bruno to bring up a topic like this first.

So, without realizing it, I became interested in it.

“Is it noisy outside?”

“It is said that many investors are trying to pull out because of this field trip terrorism.”

“yes? Investors?”

“They said that it might change the budget for the second half of this year and a lot of things.”

What is an expected schedule?

That wasn’t usually a problem.

This is because Seorn’s teachers require more than a certain amount of budget for class content.

Selina, who taught animism, would be fine, but Bruno, who taught atomic ash, and Merilda, who taught curses and curses, were pretty scary.

Other things like pharmacology or enchantments that require items to be enchanted.

Classes that needed money were overflowing and overflowing.

‘A budget issue?’

Rudger decided to check it out when he returned to the Planning Office.

* * *

After finishing the meal, Rudger visited the president’s office before stopping by the Planning Office.

Because the president called.

“Did you hear the story?”

“Are you talking about investors?”

Elisha asked without hesitation, and Rudger explained the story he had heard.

At that, Elisha shook her head as if in trouble.

“It’s troubling because there are more hyenas who are trying to bite somehow, using what happened this time as an excuse.”

“Isn’t that something we can ignore?”

“It’s not just a matter of that this time. It was because not one large investor, but three joined hands and started putting pressure on it.”

Do you mean three?

Sure enough, then a huge hole in the budget would be hard to fill.

“What is your request?”

“They asked for permission to interfere in Ceorn’s internal affairs.”

“You are out of your mind.”

“that’s right. But they say they will give up if they don’t listen, so I’m not alone in my worries.”

No matter how brilliant the president was, he was powerless in front of money.

The reason for calling Rudger was not to find a solution, but because he was the head of the planning department, it meant that he should know first.

“Will you listen?”

“We need to take some time to negotiate. As long as it came out so determined and big, it can’t be completely ignored. Unless there are other investors right away to replace them… … .”

“hmm.”

Rudger thought for a moment.

The answer came quickly.

“I think you can ignore it.”

“yes? What do you mean now?”

“That means you can get investors.”
