I Got a Fake Job at the Academy Chapter 92

◈ Episode 92 Celebration (2)

A banquet held to celebrate the arrival of Seorn’s new teachers.

As I entered the banquet hall on time, as if I had waited, my gaze flew toward me like an arrow.

‘There are a lot of people.’

I was taken aback at the moment as each of the eyes was full of interest that was burdensome, but I kept my natural appearance and headed inside.

Rather, in a banquet hall, isn’t there a performance to maintain a subtle atmosphere? why are you still

‘The banquet hasn’t started yet.’

Thinking that to my heart, I stood with my back leaning against one of the walls in order to see the banquet hall as wide as possible.

In an instant, the stopped time began to flow again.

The people who were conversing with each other continue the conversation from a while ago, and someone else rolls his eyes and bursts into laughter as if it were fun.

However, the basis of such behavior was full of pretense that was difficult to hide.

Rather, it overflows to the outside and spreads around like a black mist.

‘Everyone is watching someone else, not the conversation partner.’

Among them, especially me.

Saying this would sound like an ax disease and excessive self-consciousness, but there is no way that I, who is sensitive to such gazes, would not be aware of it.

Most of the people were either squinting at me or staring straight at me.

I could fully guess why.

‘It’s a celebration banquet, because this banquet hall itself is a kind of place to promote friendship.’

Seorn’s new teacher.

It has been proven that he is young and has excellent magical skills, so he must have thought that it would be good to make a connection even just a little bit.

Indeed, the people who were only watching to see if my prediction was not wrong started to move one by one.

“Oh oh. Miss Selina. nice to meet you My name is Congressman Charles.”

“Are you Merilda? My name is Walt Miller, director of a potion manufacturing company. Are you interested?”

“oh. Count Chris Benimore. As rumored, you are really stylish.”

I checked the faces of the people gathered in this banquet hall.

All rich and noble people.

City councilors, nobles, wealthy businessmen, and so on.

‘All of them are Seorn’s supporters.’

Seorn requires a huge budget for its operation.

Magic research, class materials, special materials, all sorts of infrastructure, and so on.

Considering the cost of raising one wizard, the amount of money spent on an academy that trains a large number of elite wizards every year is astronomical.

Just looking at my starting salary as a new teacher right now, wouldn’t it be enough to make my jaw drop open?

This is the amount of money that goes out only from the salary of a new teacher.

Considering the miscellaneous expenses, it would be difficult to imagine the detailed amount.

‘It’s hard for Seorn Academy to cover the money on its own.’

Seorn is not an international bank, and it cannot print and distribute money like a factory.

In order to spend a huge amount of money, it is inevitable to receive external support.

And there are people everywhere who can smell money amazingly well.

someone who needs money.

A person who has a lot of money but wants to get more of something else.

It was at this banquet hall that the transaction blossomed as the two of them intertwined their interests like pieces of a puzzle.

‘Though Ceorn belongs to the Empire, that’s why it’s not purely the Empire’s.’

All kinds of countries are involved in Ceorn’s investments.

Not only the Exilion Empire, but also the Delike, Queoden, Utah, Bretus, Fatima Dynasty, etc.

And even huge capitalists without borders, regardless of country.

There’s nothing particularly strange about them putting a face stamp on talented people who might later become famous.

This place is a kind of annual event that is held every time to the point where it is boring to ask why.

It is a place to build personal connections under the pretext of congratulating a newly appointed teacher.

As I was watching the wriggling scene of desire, someone approached me.

“nice to meet you. Are you Mr. Ludgar Chelsea?”

I nodded slightly and replied.

“yes. It is.”

“nice to meet you. I am Count Deckers, one of Ceorn’s benefactors.”

I wondered why it didn’t move until now, so I guess I was measuring the angle.

When Count Deckers stepped out first, the people who had been watching began to move one by one.

It’s hard for someone to put on a gun the first time, after that it’s easy.

I didn’t like it

‘What about this? If I leave it like this, all kinds of flying flies will be attracted to it.’

The reason I came here is not to have a formal conversation with people I don’t know.

I came with the intention of finding the First Order of the Black Dawn hiding in the banquet hall.

The process had to be natural and I didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone, but it got twisted because of the people sticking to it from the start.

Now that this has happened, I have no choice but to step out a little stronger.

“I’m sorry.”

I steadfastly addressed Count Deckers, who spoke to me with a deliberately heavy atmosphere.

“I don’t feel like talking to anyone right now.”

“Uh, what?”

“I’d appreciate it if you would step aside for a moment,” he said.

It was a blatant tone that said he was not even willing to come to this place.

When he narrowed his eyes and said it, Earl Deckers gulped down his saliva and nodded hurriedly.

“Uh, um. that, that’s how it should be I’m sorry. I just wasted my time Heh, heh heh!”

I’m glad you’re a quick-witted person.

And so are the people around them.

“Ke hum hum.”

“Ehh.”

When Count Deckers retreated without doing anything, the people who were watching the liver from a little away coughed and stepped back.

They are obviously inferior to Earl Deckers.

Since Count Deckers couldn’t speak, he immediately gave up that he couldn’t speak.

‘It seems that the first water change is over.’

If there’s a problem, it’s that there are a lot of people who haven’t given up yet.

I don’t know exactly who Count Decers was, but considering his position, he must have been above the middle rank among the people gathered at this banquet hall.

The fact that there are people who don’t give up on giving me a tenacious gaze after such a person has withdrawn, naturally proves that their level is high.

‘I’m sure they’re pretty troublesome people.’

I don’t like it when people like that come forward and talk to me.

As I was thinking about how to solve this, I saw a woman with pink hair and a pink dress.

Miss Selina.

She was now puzzled by the young man’s blatant approach.

hmm. perhaps.

I turned my back against the wall and walked towards Ms. Selina.

Some people see me moving and look at me curiously.

I lightly ignored them.

Someone mustered up the courage to try to talk to me in the middle, but I blocked all their actions with a light wave of my hand.

“Miss Selina. How about a drink in a nice atmosphere over there? I know a good place.”

“Eh, hee hee. sorry. I don’t like unfamiliar places like that… … .”

“no way. What are you missing? It’s a place that is hard for normal people to go to, isn’t it?”

“Oh, no, so that’s… … .”

“You should do that.”

As I stepped forward and spoke, the person who had been teasing Selina looked this way.

“What is this again?”

He contorted his face in irritation as if he thought he had been disturbed.

I stared at him without saying a word, examining his appearance.

‘I’m in my late 20’s. Luxurious looking clothes. colorful embellishment. Poor posture, not standing upright and standing on one leg. A defiant look full of conceit.’

And looked around him.

‘All the guys who were aiming for Selina-sensei have retreated.’

Even though Sensei Selina is a commoner, she is talented enough to become a teacher for Seorn at a young age.

Besides, she is a striking beauty and has a good personality, so she must have seemed quite attractive to people looking for connections.

Rather, it would be easier to get closer because the opponent was a commoner rather than an aristocrat, but there must be only one reason why that young man stepped forward and the rest retreated.

‘It sounds like a young boy with a fairly high status.’

It is also a family that is so good that even the middle and middle aristocrats cannot speak out.

but.

It has nothing to do with me.

“It’s rude to do that to a woman in trouble.”

“Ah, so who are you?”

Then Miss Selina turned to me and widened her eyes.

“Miss Rudger!”

“Ludger? what. Who is that?”

You say you don’t recognize my name?

Seeing that he said that with sincerity, not deliberately, I was very embarrassed.

I was wondering if I should introduce myself as a newly appointed teacher at Seorn.

Among the crowd, an elderly-looking man hurriedly approached the man in front of him and whispered something into his ear.

It’s a dress that matches the dress code of this party, but I can feel it.

That man who is whispering to me right now. is a wizard

Maybe he’s telling me who I am now.

“what. so?”

However, this man’s reaction far exceeded my expectations.

“Ludger Chelsea? Well, I’m a new teacher who just arrived, what does that have to do with me?”

“That, that… … .”

“hey. Rudger or something, you.”

A man who openly points at this side and treats it badly.

I was so dumbfounded that I didn’t answer and just looked at it, and then he pointed at me and asked shamelessly.

“you. Don’t you know who I am?”

should i know that?

As I stared blankly with that intention in mind, the man let out a sigh as if he was dumbfounded.

“under. really. Maybe it’s because he’s a fallen aristocrat, there’s nothing in his head. whatever.”

At those words, the faces of the aristocrats who were watching this situation hardened coldly.

However, some people who knew about this man showed signs of resignation as if they knew this would happen.

Just looking at that reaction, it must not have been a day or two of such an outrageous thing.

“My name is Ivan Luke, have you heard of it? Don’t you know Luke? Luke is a name even backstreet beggars have heard of.”

How can I not know?

I am familiar with Luke’s company.

Founded by Thedor Luke, Luke Corporation is one of the richest conglomerates in the Empire.

It is said that if there is money there, it will reach out regardless of field, and Luke’s company has spread its capital’s influence throughout the empire.

Of course, as a businessman, the name Luke was never to be taken lightly.

Above all.

Luke’s is the owner of Kunst, which is hosting an upcoming auction.

Given that Ivan’s surname is Luke, he must be the bloodline of the founder of the Luke company, Thedor Luke.

Thinking of him as the ruthless second-generation conglomerate, I immediately understood the figure in front of me.

“I am the Isaiah of such a place, Isa. know? A fallen aristocrat like you is not the kind of person that would dare to talk to you face-to-face.”

“… … .”

“If you understand, will you get out of the way? I’m going to get over the interruption of your fun this time.”

This situation gets annoying.

I just intervened with the intention of removing the flies that were properly attached to Miss Selina and also brushing off the ants that were attached to me as well.

Of course, the subject involved is the director of the Luke company.

That’s also the 2nd generation chaebol who is not cheap.

It was like trying to avoid flying flies and touching a beehive.

but.

tight.

Behind my back, Ms. Selina’s delicate hand holding my sleeve was trembling.

If I step back from here, that idiot will try to drag Miss Selina by force.

… … this can’t be helped

“hey. Do you want to get out of here quickly?”

“I’m sorry.”

I said, staring at Ivan with unwavering eyes.

“Miss Selina has a prior agreement with me first.”

I didn’t even spit in my mouth and spewed lies naturally.

“Isn’t it? Miss Selina.”

“ah.”

Perhaps reading something in that action, she hurriedly nodded.

“yes yes. that’s right.”

Ivan Luke’s face contorted terribly.

“hey. Are you kidding me?”

“Do I look like I’m joking?”

“what? under. this is a funny guy hey. If you were the teacher of Seorn, did you think I would resign to know what?”

Ivan said that and strode toward me.

Then he raised his right hand and tried to shove my shoulder.

But he couldn’t.

Because it was faster for me to grab his wrist.

“you… … . uh, what are you doing Aren’t you going to let this go?”

“If you say so, I will return the same to you.”

Rather, I tightened my grip on Ivan’s wrist and said.

“As a director of the Luke Company, did you think I would step down?”
