Academy’s Undercover Professor

urtag, took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes at the fact that he had finished a big deal.

“Teacher, are you very tired?”

Sedina asked worriedly but she also looked very tired and was slightly dark under her eyes.

“No.
I’m fine.
Above all, the most annoying thing is over.”

“Do you mean Mr.
Hugo?”

“Yes.
It will be difficult for aristocratic teachers to exercise their power within Theon after this incident.
Of course, as time passes, they will raise their heads again as before.”

At that time, it was enough for Rudger, who had the position of the planning director, to press them with moderate force so that they could not raise their heads.

Now he had the power to do so within Theon.

At that thought, Rudger laughed in vain.

‘It’s funny to be a teacher at an academy that I didn’t plan to come to, but to be in an important position inside this academy.’

It was also the result of his desperate struggle to survive, but even considering that, it was very interesting.

A new teacher rose to the top of Theon and even though the president knew that he hid his identity she still handed the position over to him.

It was the result of Rudger’s confidence in what he has shown so far, but Rudger, the person involved, still felt dumbfounded.

“We’ve finished all the urgent work so you should rest too.”

“Yes.
Are you going to the capital, too?”

“Are you talking about the field trip?”

“Yes.”

“That’s right.
First of all, since I’m a teacher, I have to go as a mentor.
However, it is necessary to sort out the list before then.”

The upcoming mentor application period for field trips was still ongoing.

Now that Rudger has become the planning director it was also his job to select people by looking at the list of mentor applicants.

“Most mentors have been selected in advance, so there will be few additional people coming.
You never know when a new person will suddenly appear.”

Especially after Rudger published the research theory that shows how to increase mana emission in the Arcane Chamber the number of wizards sending applications to Theon as mentors has increased exponentially in relation to the upcoming field trip.

“Then isn’t your work not finished yet?”

“What are you talking about? My work is done.”

“What? But you have to sort out the list…….”

“That’s not my job.”

Sedina realized something and nodded.

Rudger, the planning director, did not have to do everything himself.
That kind of miscellaneous work was done by subordinates.
And of course, the subordinates were employees of Theon, who belonged to the planning office.

Because of that, the people in the planning office were working all night to select the right people from countless lists.

“I just have to sign the approval documents that come up.”

“Ah……”

Sedina prayed for repose to the people in the planning office who had doubled their work because of Rudger.

Casey Selmore subdued all the assassins who attacked her and handed them over to the city of Leathervelk.

Before that, she tried to question them personally, but the assassins never spoke.

‘Well, I didn’t expect it in the first place.’

Casey gave up neatly since she had an idea who was behind the assassins.

‘They must have been sent by the Black Dawn Society.’

They must have tried to get rid of her because they were annoyed by the news that she was investigating them these days.

The fact that it was Rudger who warned her in advance was also a sufficient clue.

‘More than that, the letter.’

Casey saw Rudger’s letter in the trash can and picked it up.

“Be careful?”

As soon as she saw the concise letter, Casey felt a complicated emotion that was hard to express in words.

‘Why should I be careful? Did he send the letter to make fun of me?’

No, he wouldn’t have even deceived her by sending such a letter in the first place.

‘He’s definitely a bad person, but he isn’t that kind of shamelessly broken person.’

Nevertheless, he sent a letter and gave a direct warning.

‘Cause you’re really worried about me.’

Casey crumpled the letter in her hand.

‘Do you think I’d be happy about this?’

That’s what she thought, but Casey’s eyes were weak.

Of course, this warning letter was of little use to her in the first place.

It started raining outside just in time, and Casey noticed the assassins hiding in the room.
Even without the letter, she could have prevented the surprise attack by herself.

Nevertheless, she couldn’t get rid of the fact that she was helped by Rudger from her head.

The fact that a man who should always look bad, worried about her made Casey not know whether she should be happy or angry.

Three years ago he was the criminal of the century who threatened a nation, cheating, deceiving and trying to start a war but now he was different.
Thinking of students, teaching magic and even revealing the discovery of the century to everyone.

James Moriarty and Rudger Chelici moves were simply the opposite.

‘No.
Was it really the opposite?’

In Rudger’s past that I read the other day he stayed in the Delica Kingdom and taught a boy to study.
His appearance at that time seemed much softer and more kind than he was now a teacher.

There was no need to wear a mask and he didn’t teach a child to write to show it to anyone.

“…….”

Casey took out a piece of paper containing Rudger’s mana from her pocket.
She didn’t have time to see his past because she was busy but in fact that was just an excuse since she always had the chance to see but she hesitated.

Casey closed her eyes.

She is a member of the Selmore family, and is a [Colour] wizard who uses a single attribute but if anyone asks what’s her job, Casey will proudly call say detective.

Casey was not ashamed that she was a detective and was even proud because people should never turn a blind eye to the truth.

Casey opened her eyes with determination and lay on the bed immediately to face the truth that she had been avoiding so far.

Casey took a deep breath and closed her eyes and Betty, who came into the room just in time, saw Casey and shouted in surprise.

“Casey, what time is it now that you’re sleeping?”

“Oh, come on!”

Casey threw a pillow at Betty’s face.

“If you’re tired, say it with words.
Why throw a pillow?”

Betty took the flying pillow with one hand and left with a grunt while Casey stared at Betty and then fell back on the bed.

It was time to see the truth.
