Evade The Hero and Flee!

Chapter 67

Chapter 67

8. If you do it, it works. (6)

It feels pretty refreshing to move for the first time in a while?

Dats it! Thats my owner! Ya got a similar personality ta me!

Although the metal bat keeps saying only things that I want to deny, but since Im in a good mood right now Ill let it slide.

Id used my body to train my disciples in the evil organization up til now, but since Id only been doing classes and paperwork since becoming a teacher my body had rusted a fair amount.

Id been aiming for the sickly cute boy or not. The sickly handsome middle aged or not.

To hold to my sickly middle-aged man concept I couldnt even train or practice my swordsmanship Id always done daily in the evil organization.

But Professor Harian gave me a reason to let loose for the first time in a while.

But perhaps age took its toll on me. It feels like my skills have died quite a bit compared to a year ago.

No, owner. Owners not dead yet! Ya still got dem skills ya drubbed all ya old disciples with!

Perhaps because she hadnt gotten to move around as much as she used to after Aris became a swordsmaster, but the metal bat seemed to be in a good mood today too.

Mm, mm! its been so long since Ive had this electrifying feeling!

But the holidays end tomorrow, and so does your job!

Waah! No fair! No fair!

Even if it is unfair theres no other choice.

Theres not that long till the imperial festival either, and I need to take care of the kids physical or rather mental health.

Even back in the evil organization when I trained my disciples, I always let them rest the day before important events like ranking matches.

Since I only ever raised a small number of elites even a single injury would be a significant setback for me!

And as if they understood what I wanted, they also stayed quiet on those important days.

Wasnt it just cuz ya healed them by beating them up with me?

That was also a factor. But back then I did it because it couldnt be helped.

Whaddaya mean it couldnt be helped! Ya think I wouldnt know that the organization always sent ya healers on a daily basis just cause all owners trainings all had some ridiculous stuff in it!

Tch, quick on the mark.

Haang, owner and I cant be separated even if we try! I know almost everything that owner knows!

If you were to look at only the appearance of her smugly puffing out her flat chest she almost looks cute.

Im a goddess thats cute on the inside too!

Did I say anything.

Both me, and this one.

All we enjoyed was a single day out of our routine but it feels like wed wiped out all our stress wed accumulated so far.

Owner, owner! Before the imperial festival ends, can we have fun like this once, just once, pwease?

Hm I might have to think about that.

Since that was good stress relief for me, and stress relief for this kid so that she wont complain for the foreseeable future, even if it might not be possible to do it regularly, every now and then might be doable.

Aris is a swordsmaster so its dangerous.

How many of my former disciples want to stick a sword in my belly?

Itd be five at the very least.

And using that as a precedent, there is almost no doubt that among the students there might be some brats that want to shank my guts for inventing night study and all sorts of other assorted annoying crap.

And among them, the most dangerous one is obviously Aris the swordsmaster.

But owner? Didnt ya already beat the Sword Star, and thrashed ya hella clingy disciple? Arent ya being a bit too careful considering youve already beaten swordsmasters twice now?

Well, thats as far as my record goes.

But its still a swordsmaster.

They say the realm of swordsmasters is the beginning and the end of swordsmanship.

Meaning, to most swordsmen it seems like the end of swordsmanship, but you realise only when you actually become a swordsmaster.

That youve only started to understand the sword.

Of course seeing as the one who so seriously said these lines were the imperial courts official pushover Sword Princess so the reliability of that statement drops a bit, but she was still once the empires youngest swordsmaster.

No, since Aris hasnt been officially announced as a swordsmaster, she still is the youngest ever swordsmaster.

Either way, thats what our Sword Princess said.

Meaning, Aris is currently piling up even more experience on another plane compared to all of us!

Even if I got the jump on her today, next time she might start throwing sword auras at me the moment she even sees me.

And so our only chance is when we can blindside Aris unawares!

But ya still aint saying were not doing it owner! Thats my owner! The incarnate of desire!

Kghh but Ive found this delightful pleasure, its hard to give it up now.

Th things ya start late are always funner! Owners lucky. A hitting specialist like mes owners partner!

You make me realise I really have been living my life wrongly after all!

Something thats good at hitting people is my life partner!

Is it not even more useless than the master of bottom dealing, the ancient pharaohs soul!

Isnt a pharaoh a king? A kings hella useful!

No, hes an idiot that bet his life on a card game. And in the end he lost to himself.(1)

And in this fantasy world, theres nothing that you can do by being good at card games.

Actually since he was the master of bottom dealing he might have earned some cash by gambling?

But unlike that place where you fought with card games, you fight with brute force here so if you lose all your money in the gambling ring without any money then youre going to get screwed over by the organization running the ring.

Because gambling rings are a good source of income for evil organizations!

So ya saying Im really useless then? Then ima not gonna help ya out even if those really scary unnis come chasing after ya?

Im sorry.

A fast apology, I like it!

It might look pathetic but it cant be helped.

When I meet those scary people that are chasing me, if I didnt have this thing?

Each and every one of them have at least one swordsmaster attached to them.

Wait, hang on. Just what kind of life have I been leading?

Owner? Dint ya say before that only countries with a decent military had swordsmasters?

I did.

Then are ya pretty much being chased by an entire countrys worth a army or something?

Since the worlds strongest empires after me, an ordinary country is a funny joke.

And owner whos surviving perfectly fine smack in the middle of said strongest empires also funny!

True, its funny even when I think of it.

If ya know then obey this great goddess Arcadia!

Yes, yes.

Normally I would have just brushed her off, but I feel good enough to humour this kid for a bit.

Theres nothing quite as good as exercise to blow off some steam, you know?

Good body, good mind!

Everyone, lets all exercise or would the microparticle pollution be too much of an issue for that?

#8 Their story: A certain teachers story.

Professor Nicerwin is the probleeeemmm!

My back was stinging but I couldnt look back.

Because I knew perfectly well why my back was prickling!

Now, th, then umm

Professor, we would appreciate it if you spoke up properly.

Yes, yes! Understood! Todays lesson is about!

The moment I stuttered one student immediately cut in.

While it might seem extremely rude to a teacher, since I was the one who made this situation with my own mouth I couldnt even say something about it.

Of course! Although the secondary, and tertiary causes was all Professor Nicerwin!

So all I can do is yell at Professor Nicerwin in my mind!

Professor, the class has stopped.

Im sowwwyy!

On the last day of the holidays if you put it like that that seems like it was as long time ago, but if you put it another way, just yesterday.

After Professor Nicerwin appeared and completely swept the students away, he made a face as if he was completely refreshed.

Fine, it was alright up to there.

Why why did Professor Nicerwin appear all of a sudden?

It was Professor Harians request. She suggested that I participate for once as well

Professor Nicerwin needlessly answered a dying students final words.

And that student etched those words in his heart before he died

The moment he revived he spread the word to everyone else, that I was the culprit who summoned the demon named Nicerwin.

Rather than resenting Professor Nicerwin himself they went for the easier(?) to resent target, me.

And because of that I was getting a lot of prickling gazes from all the students!

Even for me this a bit, no, really painful!

Professor, I cannot read what you wrote with that handwriting.

Im sorreehh! Ill do my best to write neatly!

My handwriting shook a bit due to my shaking hand, but the students cut in immediately.

Scary. The students are too scary!

And in the cases of high-ranking summons like this, the mana needed

Youve already covered that section.

Sorrrrryyyy!

This is all Professor Nicerwins faaauuullt! The kids eyes are so frigid its impossible for me to carry on with the lesson.

And if the lesson doesnt continue then the kids get even icier.

And I get flustered and stuff up the lesson again, and the kids get colder in turn

How would I break this petrifying cycle!

A number of classes went and ended like that, and as I felt peoples gazes on me even as I was walking through the corridor I hurriedly escaped to my office and sighed in relief a few times.

Ah, I really dont want to do this

The time for night study came once again.

Hahaha, did you not like it before?

Muamy, if youre gonna be like this as well then Im gonna cry, you know? The kids werent this scary back then!

Bully them when theyre not scary, running away when they are scary. As a teacher you should not do that.

Muamy doesnt know! How hard today was!

So you really should have been taking care of what you said.

I didnt know Professor Nicerwin would do that either!

If I knew that was what would have happened then I wouldnt have said that kind of bullshit either!

But it was already too late.

The reality was the students icy looks and pressure.

Im not gonna die today, right?

If looks could kill me then I would already be dead ten times over today, but theyre not going to actually kill me.

Surely students wouldnt try to actually kill their teacher, right?

Was the answer I wanted to hear, but why are you staying silent? Did I do something wrong to you? Lil Muam?

It is not that. Just that Professor Harians words were much too realistic

Dont say that! Why are you making such a serious face right now!

Do I really have to say

Dont say it!

Since Muamy was serious its even scarier.

Since the eternally deadpan Muams making a serious expression its even scarier.

And that fear eventually became reality.

There she is!

Theres Professor Harian!

Kill her!

Hiiiiik!

As the students came down to the first floor unbelievably quickly, they immediately charged towards me.

Having said that, whaddaya mean, kill her! Im still a teacher!

Even if the relationship between teacher and student is strange in this academy, but Im still your heaven-like teacher!

They say to not even step on your teachers shadow, but these little brats are trying to get past by stomping right on their teacher!

Lil Muam, help m Muam? What are you doing?

I pitifully looked backwards in the face of this savage pressure, but what I saw was.

Boreas, that Professor Harian contracted with has poor compatibility with my Spirit King of Water.

So Im really wondering what does that have to do with Muamy putting up a water barrier behind me?

Wasnt there a strategy since long ago?

What, this feeling that I perfectly know what hes going to say.

Is what Muamys thinking right now what Im thinking right now?

Yes, like youre thinking right now, youre fighting with your back to the water.(2)

Muaaaahhhhhmm!

I hurriedly banged on the water barrier, but Muamys face didnt change at all and his expression was like a judge condemning a prisoner to execution.

As the old sages said, you must undo the knot you make yourself.

This rage is all because of Professor Nicerwin, its not mine!

Even so, the beginning was definitely Professor Harians words.

Im reflecting! Im really, really reflecting!

The people that should accept that apology is not me, but those students.

At some point all the students had come down from the second floor and began to charge at me as if they were all under berserker magic.

Im sorry, kids! Im really really sorry!

I defended against countless summons that charged at me, deflected countless blades.

Even so my mouth kept on with the apologies, but the students would only accept my apology a long, long time in the future.
