Chapter 17 - Invitation from the Magic Academy
The morning of our family was earlier than the average person in the royal capital.
The first of the girls to wake up was Elsa.
She rose from the futon when the residue of the night was still there, even the sun had not yet risen
Her morning training was her daily routine. She had never missed a day since she was in the village. That might support her current strength.
Anna woke up next.
She was reading all the newspapers of the Royal Capital until breakfast.
As a guild master, it may be necessary to keep an eye on What's going on in the world. Her daily efforts helped her build her present position.
By the way, for me??.
I was up before the girls. Because I had to prepare breakfast. I worked hard to make sure that the girls could have a full day's worth of activities.
And the last was Meryl.
If Elsa woke up before the sun rose, Anna woke up as soon as the sun rose, Meryl was still in her futon after the sun rose.
After Elsa and Anna went to work, I headed to Meryl's futon.
"Meryl. It's time to get up now."
"Nnya~. Just a little more... just ten minutes more~"
"You've been repeating that for the past two hours... I've made breakfast. It'll get cold if you don't get up immediately and eat."
"Papa. I have an open mouth, so fed me?."
"Oioi..."
I'm not Meryl's personal caretaker...
No, that was actually just the way it was.
"If you're not getting up now, you will be late for magic academy."
"I'm going to take a day off today because the weather is good."
"If so, do you go when the day is rainy?"
"I take a day off on a rainy day because I'll get wet and catch a cold. I lose to the rain. I also lose to the wind. That's the kind of person me-chan want to be..."
"In the end, you're not going on any day of the week!"
Haaa~, and that was when I was sighing.?
Knock knock.
There was a knocking sound at the front door.
"Yes?"
When I opened the door, an adult woman was standing at the front door.
A cool beautiful woman wore glasses with her hair tied up in a knot.
She was dressed in uniform.
And she had a serious atmosphere.
"Eettoo. You are...?"
"Nice to meet you, my name is Irene. I'm a lecturer at Magic Academy. Is it correct that this is Meryl-san's house?"
"Yes. Meryl is my daughter."
"That is..."
“I’m Meryl’s father. My name is Kaizer.”
"Is that so? I thought you're her older brother because you look so young. Kaizer-san. I've listened to rumors about you for some time."
"Rumors...?"
"Yes. Meryl-san talked a lot. She said that she loved her father. And she said she would definitely marry him in the future."
"Haha……"
That Meryl, she had blown such things out of proportion.
It was embarrassed me a lot.
"So, is there something that brings Irene-san to our house?"
"I'm here to pick up Meryl-san, The Slacker."
"So that is it?"
When I was convinced, I looked back into the room and called.
"Meryl. A lecturer from the Magic Academy is coming to pick you up."
"Please tell that I'm not here"
"I heard you, Meryl-san."
"Uhyyaaa! You surprised me."
Meryl suddenly jumped up at the sudden appearance of Irene who stood by her bedside.
Her shoulder was peeked out of her messy pajamas.
"Now, let's go to the academy. As a scholarship student, you have an obligation to attend school. I won't leave until you go."
"Do-not-want! I don't want to go to the academy."
"Why?"
"Now that I was able to live with Papa. If I went to academy, I will be separated from him."
Meryl came close to me and hugged my arm tightly.
"What a Father-Con daughter."
Irene lifted the temples of her glasses in a freaking way.
As a parent, I had no choice but to apologize for the inconvenience.
Irene was thinking for a while with her hand on her chin.
And she said, as if she had come up with something.
"Then, let's do this."
"Nn?"
"Meryl-san doesn't want to be separated from her father, so if he's in the academy, she will go, right?"
""Eh?""
Meryl's and my voices leaked out.
"Irene-san. What exactly do you...."
"Kaizer-san. Would you be a lecturer at the Magic Academy? If you do, I'm sure Meryl-san will attend the academy too."
"Me, to be a lecturer?"
"Of course. You will be paid the appropriate salary. It doesn't matter what magical skill you have. At the very least, you can use magic."
“I do have a background in magic, though."
"Then, it will be no problem. What is Kaizer-san's job do you have now?"
"I don't have a regular job...but, I'm a Knight Orders' instructor and be an adventurers for some time."
"I see. If so, please work as a part-time lecturer. In that way, you will be able to balance with other jobs."
Irene said,
"How about it? Can you accept it?"
"Uuunnn..."
"So, Papa will be a lecturer? If so, we can flirt even in the academy! Then I will also attend the academy?."
Meryl said with a lively voice.
"That's what Meryl says, so, that job, I'll accept it."
So, with this Meryl could attend the academy properly from now on.
"I would appreciate your cooperation. Well, speaking of lecturer work, basically there is no problem if you to be a regular lecturer. However, because it is a magic academy. If there is a person without magical power for a long time, you may experience some harassment, So, please let me check whether you have magic power or not, Kaizer-san."
"I understand"
"Then, can you touch this crystal? If you have magical power, it will glow according to the magical power you have."
Irene took out the crystal ball and presented it in front of me.
I touched the crystal ball with both hands. The crystal ball sensed magical power and emitted light. The light created at the center spread throughout the ball in an instant.
"What, what the intensity of the light...! I can't believe it! This magical power??much better than me and other lecturers...!"
Irene had a look of disbelief on her face as if she saw something incredible.
"Kaizer-san! Can you accompany me to the academy right away!? I'd like to introduce you to the principal!"
"Eh? ah, yes."
I decided to head to the Magic Academy.
