A desk filled with unfinished work documents for a long time.

But right now, Kundel’s eyes didn’t see any of those things.

Thinking he might clear his mind, he looked at the documents, but frustration surged up, and he crumpled the paper right away.

Cyan Vert.

How far could his potential go?

Although he hadn’t exhausted all his power, no one had ever effortlessly endured his mana up to level 9.

No, isn’t it unreasonable to even think such a thing could happen?

As impossible as a newborn baby overpowering an adult man, it was an impossible assumption to begin with.

But it happened.

Right before his eyes.

It was a moment when the fleetingness of time rushed in like a flood.

And another person comes to mind.

No, not even a person, a half-breed dragon that’s hard to define as human.

Even if it’s closer to human, could they keep such a being with dragon blood in the academy?

Although Cyan explained it as self-defense, that child definitely killed a person.

When and where, who knows when the danger might explode?

Yet, instead of quickly dealing with the presence that could be dangerous anytime and anywhere, what was he so fascinated with that he even sent food?

If you were to pinpoint the most pathetic moment in a 60-year life, it would be right now, to the extent that it was a situation he couldn’t understand himself.

“Come in.”

After the knock, the door opened, and Instructor Silica came in.

Unlike her usual self, her expression was extremely dark.

“……”

She cautiously approached Kundel and silently handed him an envelope.

Although he hadn’t checked inside yet, Kundel immediately knew what the envelope contained.

“What does this mean?”

“It’s all there for you to see.”

Although Kundel asked with surprise, Silica replied calmly.

“From today, I will resign from my position as an academy instructor.”

What she handed over was nothing but a resignation letter.

“What’s the reason? It’s not just because of this one incident, right?”

After the emergency measures were taken, she was the one who had been monitoring Cyan.

However, what Silica confirmed was not Cyan, but the half-breed dragon that had transformed into Cyan.

It was surprising that she, who had been trusted as an instructor, failed to recognize the dragon’s gimmick, but there was no way to blame her for it.

Is she trying to fulfill the Chancellor’s words of taking responsibility?

Her firm gaze contained sincerity.

“I’ve been thinking about it for a few months now. I want to stop now and focus on personal matters outside the academy.”

She explained that she was resigning from her instructor position due to personal reasons.

“Is it because of household chores?”

“No, it’s purely my personal matter unrelated to my family.”

Judging from the atmosphere, it didn’t seem like she would explain in detail.

“Silica. You’ve been the most instructor-like instructor I’ve ever seen among all the instructors I’ve seen so far. I trusted you a lot, even thinking about succeeding Satwell as vice-chancellor. You know that yourself, right?”

“Yes……”

“Honestly, I thought you were not yourself about this incident. Approval for experiential learning, surveillance of that Cyan Vert… No, let’s drop this talk.”

It was Kundel who hastily stopped the conversation when Cyan was about to be mentioned.

“Anyway, from my perspective, there are many reasons why I don’t want to let you go. Someday you might leave, but not now. I won’t accept this resignation letter.”

Kundel firmly showed his refusal as he pushed the envelope back to her.

Silica looked at the rejected resignation letter and murmured slowly.

Silica looked at the rejected resignation letter and said firmly.

“I won’t stay long….”

Her words showed a strong determination that her original intention wouldn’t be swayed.

As she was about to leave the Chancellor’s office after finishing her business, Kundel suddenly spoke up.

“Come to think of it, Silica, you were the one who first proposed Boris’s leave of absence, right?”

Her pupils trembled slightly.

“Was there a reason?”

“He said it was for personal reasons, but he didn’t provide any detailed explanation,”

Silica replied casually, without revealing her thoughts, to Kundel’s inquiry.

“I see.”

Without further conversation, Silica left the Chancellor’s office.

Her steps headed towards her research lab in the annex.

Was it because of the atmosphere dampened by the mysterious murder case?

Despite the faint moonlight, the streets of the academy were quiet.

Arriving at her research lab without incident, as she reached for the doorknob,

“….!”

Silica sensed that someone was inside the dark room with the lights off.

Without hesitation, she opened the door.

*Creak*

In the shadow of the unlit darkness, there was a clear silhouette of a young boy.

Upon seeing him, Silica showed a bright smile and said.

“Are you here for counseling, student Cyan?”

* * *

Though she was smiling outwardly, I knew better than anyone that she was not feeling that way inside.

But counseling?

Our leader. Could she be making some unfunny joke?

“I’ve come to deliver a message as important as counseling.”

I replied amiably with a willingness to go along with it for now.

“I see. I’m truly grateful that you came all the way here on such an ambitious night.”

*Thud*

She quietly closed the door and then flicked her fingers to create a soundproof barrier.

It was something we always did when having private conversations on campus, so I didn’t think much of it.

*Humming*

Huh? What’s this?

Feeling something odd, I raised my head and noticed that she was manifesting mana.

Soon, a transparent barrier spread throughout the room, creating a restrictive barrier that sealed off the space.

From this point on, things started to feel ominous.

*Slide*

Before long, the black dagger nestled in her bosom revealed its deep black handle, and at that moment, I realized belatedly.

I’m in big trouble!

*Bang!*

Both hands holding the leader’s wrists are trembling.

Thankfully, not bringing Kaeram was a godsend.

If she had seen this scene, it would have resulted in a bigger bloodbath than the previous incident.

“Would you like to hear my impressions after you ignoring my warnings and going off on your own? I was so upset when our precious heir disappeared without a word!”

Isn’t this more than just corporal punishment?

You tentatively asked, unable to look at her fierce face.

“Are you planning to kill me, leader?”

“What’s so wrong with that? What can’t I do? An heir who doesn’t even listen to my words, I’ll just kill and make a new one! I’ll make a good child who listens to my words!”

“Are you calling that counselling now?”

“What can’t I do? Easy come, easy go! Aeru will surely understand!”

It might seem like a somewhat excessive disciplinary process, but it definitely wasn’t.

Look at the changed face of that leader. If you approached with even a hint of hesitation, you’d really end up dead!

* * *

It took about 10 minutes of harsh discipline before the leader could finally calm down.

I recounted everything that had happened at the ruins to her, starting from obtaining a piece of the Tome.

“Well, at least you didn’t come back empty-handed. That’s fortunate.”

If I had returned empty-handed, I shuddered to think what kind of discipline would follow.

As she handed me a piece of paper without a word.

“It’s information about the assassins who targeted you.”

It was information obtained from interrogating the only mercenary spared.

In truth, the names or breeds of the hunting dogs are not that important.

What’s important is the information about the master who gave them orders.

And those masters were…

“The Royal Family?”

The children of Emperor Dionne, the brothers of Princess Arin.

Third Prince Fabian and Fourth Prince Nerobian were the main culprits behind sending the assassins.

“The information we could get from the mercenary named Gerrick is all we have. As you know, people don’t give that much information to mercenaries. But we can still make some guesses…”

“The brothers who were jealous of Arin’s engagement wanted to restrain her, so they targeted me?”

“Furthermore, they might have tried to shift the blame to someone else.”

Since I had expected there to be some sort of restraint, it wasn’t particularly surprising.

Although they seemed to have crossed the line a bit.

“How did you get here from Nodeli? It wouldn’t have been easy to come here so quickly, would it?”

“I created a gate connecting my space and the mist’s space. Thanks to that, I could come here in one step.”

“Could you create a space as well?”

“It hasn’t been long.”

Power is actually a very straightforward factor.

If you use it, you can endlessly grow, but if you don’t, you’ll fall endlessly.

During the battle with Lindsay Nihalov, a former Mist member, I gained the ability to handle the power of mist more precisely.

So now I can create a space similar to Aeru’s space.

Do you know one of the privileges of a divine space?

It’s the ability to connect two similar spaces with similar energies.

I created a gate connecting the space I created in Nodeli to the space in Luwen, shortening the distance from two days to just one minute.

The first thing I did when I came back was to ensure Nana’s safety.

“You trapped Nana in a space, didn’t you?”

“Should I have just brought that runaway brat who went on a rampage and ate people back here?”

“But you didn’t plan to let her go, did you?”

“….”

For a moment, a chilly atmosphere filled the room.

“Did you plan to kill Nana?”

“I can’t do that anymore. Now that you’ve blatantly exposed that brat’s existence to the Chancellor…”

She replied calmly, as if it was nothing to hide.

When I first heard the news from the members who came to Nodeli, my brain honestly felt like it was turning upside down.

I don’t know why.

The first thing that came to my mind at that moment was the image of Nana crying.

Just like when she caused trouble when I was not here and ate some people and ended up crying, not knowing what to do.

The leader isolated Nana where no one could see her and was even considering killing her once the matter was resolved.

I don’t disagree with that behavior.

Because I know better than ever that she is a person who will do anything just because she is for me.

However,

“I will make one thing clear. Whether that child eats people or dragons, do not interfere from now on. I will take full responsibility.”

The leader crossed her arms firmly and looked at me with a deep gaze.

“I’ll make one thing clear too.”

“Please do.”

“When it comes to assassins, the only thing they should take responsibility for is their own bodies. Sometimes, they may even have to discard them.”

I had a vague idea of what she was going to say.

“It means that the more you have to protect, the heavier and slower your body becomes. So…”

“It means there are more weaknesses threatening my body.”

“……”

The leader remained silent for a moment.

“You have no memory of me saying this, do you?”

“Then it must have been the leader of my past life.”

The leader nodded as if to say she wouldn’t say anything more.

“I understand your intentions. But don’t expect me to fully comply. This will be the last time.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

After overcoming a hurdle, my eyes involuntarily went to the white envelope on the desk.

I hadn’t checked the contents yet, but I had a feeling.

“Resignation… … is it?”

“No surprises there. I was starting to prepare for it. With that Boris possibly reappearing anytime, I can’t stay here at ease.”

Well, it seems the Chancellor didn’t accept it.

“Even if something happens, as long as I take it all on me, it’ll all be over. But if you want to continue enjoying your peaceful life at the academy, you’ll have to be more careful in the future.”

A peaceful life at the academy?

The moment I heard that, I suddenly burst into laughter.

Peaceful…

That’s not a word that suits me at all.

“You said that to me, didn’t you? To make me realize what I can do with my power. So that I can use that power without regret…”

“I did. It seems like I can do much more than I had imagined, but…”

Now that I’ve revealed that I’m a regressor, showing any ability won’t be much of a surprise anymore.

However,

“The power I’ve shown you since meeting you, dear leader, is far from being at its full potential.”

Her face subtly frowned.

“I can do much more than what you think, dear leader.”

Could it be that she was more worried than excited?

“Why, that doesn’t sound pleasant.”

Her expression was not as bright as before.
