The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Chapter 84



Come spring (2)

The regular academic meeting is a more formal and large-scale event unlike regular academic meetings held on a daily basis.

The number of attendees at the meeting itself is not much different from a regular academic conference but the level of attendees is one level higher.

While a general academic meeting is a meeting where full professors assistant professors and academic staff gather together to discuss business-oriented topics regular meetings are closer to deciding on more macro-level operational directions.

Above all the biggest difference is that the principal Obel Forcius presides over it himself.

A place to check the progress of academic affairs in each department share situations that need to be checked regarding student education and management and make direct decisions on important aspects.

In fact being a senior professor or a managerial professor is an opportunity to prove one’s work ability so it is a position for which even the most experienced professors prepare thoroughly.

Winter vacation is coming to an end. As we are busy preparing for the upcoming next semester it is important to clarify the direction and policy of undergraduate education through regular meetings.

To that extent a senior professor… This is a meeting where you have to be at least an advisor level to be given a seat.

It seemed unnatural to anyone that Claire Elphin an assistant professor and not a full professor was included as a member of the meeting.

“These are the results of this placement test.”

Chief Dean McDowell was in the process of delivering the overall test results to Principal Obel.

Obel glanced over the class assignment results for each department and tilted his head for a moment.

“This year the Ministry of Magic… Isn’t there a single student from Class A? ? The person in charge of the test is… Assistant Professor Claire… ”

Claire who had been trying to hide in a corner was startled and shook her shoulders when Obel called her name directly.

Normally I wouldn’t have been able to attend such an event but I had no choice because I was in a special position as Professor Glast’s agent.

The conference seats all of which were filled with senior professors felt burdensome and I tried to crouch quietly. I never expected to be called that name directly.

“Did you say you were Professor Glast’s best student? “I have very high expectations.”

“Thank you… ”

“I have no intention of getting involved in selecting students with strict criteria but… “Still I didn’t know that they wouldn’t select a single student from Class A.”

All the senior professors were looking through the report documents distributed in advance. Claire had no idea she would receive this much attention.

In the first place my predecessor Professor Glast also had very strict standards for Class A students and there were several years when he actually did not select Class A students so I thought it wouldn’t matter.

“As the principal I feel the need to check the reason and move on. Is it simply that the level of new students at the Ministry of Magic is at that level or is there a particularly strict requirement? “I should be aware of that.”

that… ”

“Looking at the test contents… “You made me deal with older students?”

I was interested… !

Obel’s eyes roll from side to side as he begins to analyze Claire’s ‘roughly prepared’ test report document by word.

“Hmm… ”

“Oh my… ”

“No the head of the combat club of the second year of preparation… ?”

The reactions of the senior professors who read the documents were varied.

There was a lot of room for the test content to be interpreted differently depending on who read it.

Above all wouldn’t it be too much to make second-year reserve students face off against Clevius Nortondale the head of the combat club? This opinion seemed to be the mainstream.

“They seem to be students of a high level even among the upper grades… I think it might have been too harsh an assignment for freshmen… ”

Claire secretly wiped away the cold sweat that was starting to trickle down and spoke as confidently as possible.

A bright smile.

“I need to know how to solve this problem… “I just decided that I was qualified for Class A.”

It was just a hasty response but even if you try to mess around here it’s neither porridge nor rice. Assistant Professor Claire spoke in as confident a manner as possible.

Rather such a proud appearance… The senior professors all swallowed their dry saliva.

“Hmm… Onyx Pelomere Ed Rothtaylor Anise Haylan Clevious Nortondale… ”

Obel read the members of Assistant Professor Claire’s lab one by one… She soon closed her eyes and nodded her head.

The sweaty senior professors had the list deeply engraved in their minds.

In fact everyone who knows knows it.

Even professors who did not believe in superstitions could not help but acknowledge Assistant Professor Claire’s innate benevolence. It makes you wonder if he really was a person who accomplished something in his past life.

Some people thought that even Assistant Professor Claire’s immature appearance was just a disguise. He was born with the ability to select and manage people in the first place.

Otherwise it makes no sense that all kinds of talented people would flock to Assistant Professor Claire.

He receives world-renowned scholars as his advisors his friends are all kinds of famous people and even his students are nothing but great gems.

Because of her innate favor to the point where people wonder why the sky favors Claire the senior professors are starting to keep an eye on Claire as new people appear around her.

The most appropriate example is Anis the head teaching assistant who all professors with private labs are drooling over.

Other new names that popped out… It’s hard to judge yet.

Just looking at Claire sitting in such a weighty position and confidently expressing her opinions shows that she is not an immature person.

The ghost hidden behind that innocent-looking face is… It is still difficult to gauge properly. What kind of thoughts are you having inside?

‘I want to eat a tart…’ ..’

Assistant Professor Claire just sat in her seat without saying a word while rubbing her hungry stomach.

“Anyway the first-year class assignments have been completed and the list of top students has been confirmed… “Preparations for next semester are almost complete.”

The report received by Obel outlined and well-organized the academic records management of not only new students but also all students.

What is important in the current situation ahead of the student council president election is… It was a list of senior students.

1st year Head of combat department: Wade Calamore Head of magic department: Josef Whitefeltz Head of pension department: Claude Velasus Head of overall department: Wade Calamore

2nd year Head of Combat Department: Clevious Nortondale Head of Magic Department: Lucy Mayril Head of Pension Department: Elvira Anniston Head of overall class: Lucy Mayril

3rd Year Combat Department Head: Drake Ragers Magic Department Head: Yenica Palover Head of Pension Department: Atalanta Overall Head: Yenica Failover

4th Year Combat Department Head: Dyke Elphelan Head of Magic Department: Tracyana Bloomriver Head of Pension Department: Dorothy Whitefeltz Overall Head: Dyke Elphelan

The valedictorian of each department in each grade and the professors in charge of each grade discuss and decide among the valedictorians of each department.

The success or failure of the student council president election will likely depend largely on how many students from this list of top students are attracted.

Being the student council president at Sylvania Academy has great meaning.

Originally it would be absurd for student representatives to have authority equivalent to that of faculty and staff. A student is just a student and cannot exercise authority that goes beyond his or her duties.

However Sylvania Academy’s student structure is quite unique.

It is not just a gathering of talented students in various fields. Commoners let alone children of noble families or influential families cannot even utter a squeak… It is a place where even royal family members and saints come as students.

The student council president is the person who is entrusted with the voices of students and represents their position.

As he rose to the position of student council president with the support of many students… The student council president can delegate and exercise the authority of students who hold such a position.

The student council president was supported by not just one or two but three-digit numbers of influential children… From a bachelor’s perspective this can never be ignored.

The former student council president Veros had no radical aspects and tended to handle most things amicably in the direction of maintaining the status quo so it was quite comfortable for the academics as well. Since he was reappointed for two years there were hardly any headaches for his bachelor’s degree.

However now that Veros has graduated the question of who the next student council president becomes becomes really important.

“The trends of the seniors in each grade were identified… ?”

Obel cried lightly.

From the academic perspective it is necessary to estimate in advance which student will be elected as representative.

The most certain way is… The goal is to look at the tendencies of the seniors in each grade who can exert the most influence on the student president election.

Department of Combat Department of Magic Department of Pension… The head of each department often stands in a position to lead public opinion within the grade.

This is because most students respect the opinions of the head of their grade even if they do not necessarily raise their voices. Of course there are some exceptions… There is clearly a certain tendency. In the case of the Pensions Department it has become a tradition to just follow the chief’s opinion if you are not sure.

And if you go beyond being the valedictorian of each department and reach the valedictorian of your grade… To exaggerate a bit it is safe to say that these are people who are in a position to determine the success or failure of the student council president election.

Unless something unusual happens and someone with a different voice invades… This is because most opinions are centered around the senior in the grade.

“We will report the details separately.”

“I understand. Let’s move on to the next item.”

Only then did Assistant Professor Claire sigh in relief after confirming that the interest had been taken away from her. Anyway it is not easy at all to represent Professor Glast.

“The next item on the agenda is… Is it going to be a snow storm again this year? ”

It was a topic that regularly came up around this time every year. Due to climatic conditions there is a period of snow storms on Aken Island for about a week in late winter before spring arrives. Although the specific time was slightly different it came every year without fail.

In accordance with the timing students had to be banned from outside activities for a week and forced to spend time inside the dormitory. In addition you must carefully check the winterization and repair status of each dormitory and manage internal supplies.

There is nothing to worry about at Ofilis Hall either in terms of facilities or internal staff. While carefully checking the situation at the Lorail and Dex tubes… Obel once again felt the harshness of time.

Considering that it is already the last cold season before spring I cannot help but think that time goes by so quickly.

Wooden windbreak wall: Well-maintained wooden boards were tied together in layers with twine and the joints were buried in the soil.

It can play a role in blocking drafts but it will not be able to withstand winds stronger than its limit.

Production Difficulty: ●◐○○○ The production skill level does not increase with this level of product.

After reaching about 15 in my talent stat my growth became sluggish. At around 15 it is safe to say that the growth of most bow or craft skills will not stop due to lack of talent stat.

In order to achieve dramatic growth the time has come to find another growth opportunity.

If I sit still like Tailley all sorts of hardships won’t creep in on their own so I think it’s time for me to step up.

“Whoa… ”

After wiping away the sweat I glanced at the windbreak wall I had worked so hard to install.

Most of the various items that were put out outside the camp were kept inside the hut.

Other than that we decided to wrap all the materials that were difficult to put in the cabin tightly with a tent tie them with several layers of twine and then collect them and store them behind the windbreak wall.

“It would definitely be good to be thoroughly prepared for strong winds.”

As I was shaking off the sweat and leaning against the wall of the hut twisting my arms here and there I heard a familiar voice coming from the campfire.

When I looked at him quietly I was able to immediately understand what was going on.

Just by looking at it it’s a maid’s outfit that’s so fancy that it seems like it’s really a hassle to think about attire etiquette.

Belle who was elegantly dressed without any of the many frills and decorations out of place was holding Lucy in her arms.

Rather than a person… Lucy was shivering looking like a dried fish hanging on a drying rack. It seems that the maid at Ofilis Hall still dislikes her pale complexion.

“I’m glad you look healthy. Master Ed.”

“Are you here to catch Lucy?”

“It’s about time the snow storm approaches. The policy came down from the academic department. During snow storms entry outside the dormitory is strictly prohibited unless absolutely necessary. Personnel management is also required to be more thorough than usual.”

That’s why he had planned to capture Lucy in advance.

In fact at Lucy’s level she wouldn’t have much to worry about whether it’s a rainstorm or a snow storm but school rules are school rules. At a time like this I can only pity the maids who do laundry when they go around getting their clothes dirty.

“Since you are the one with the greatest chance of escaping… “We will have to keep a more thorough watch. We are also planning to have surveillance personnel in charge shift duty for a week.”

“Help me too… ”

“… ”

It can certainly be said that Bell’s work is flawless. She doesn’t seem to like it very much but her management skills as a maid are outstanding.

It would be a terrible thing for Lucy who hates stuffy spaces… I can’t do anything about the fact that I have to be locked in Ofilis Hall for a week without moving.

Like I said… School rules are school rules. Lucy owes too much to the maids at Ofilis Hall in her daily life to tell her to escape if they get upset.

“This must be my first experience facing a snow storm as a manager. “You are worried about many things right?”

“… … Hmm… Hmm… hmm… ”

“I will continue to use polite language.”

“… … Actually there isn’t much to worry about. Ofilis Hall has good facilities and there won’t be many students out and about during a snow storm in the first place… “It is safe to say that as long as we keep a close eye on Lady Lucy’s deviations there will be no significant variables.”

Belle quickly hugged Lucy and turned the topic to me.

“Actually if I were to worry it would be Master Ed. Would you be able to withstand a week-long snow storm in these conditions? It’s a presumptuous thing to say but with a windbreaker like this there’s nothing wrong with it… “It seems difficult.”

“Well this was just put up to protect supplies.”

In addition in case it would have a negative impact on the cabin we fixed rope over the roof and tied it tightly to the floor. We also packed various hunting traps in advance and placed them inside the cabin.

“I don’t have to worry too much because I have a separate place to take shelter during the snow storm.”

“Since you say so I will ease your worries… ”

During the week when the snow storm hits I plan to focus on magical engineering research at the Soul Library all day.

Because it is an underground space it feels a bit stuffy so I don’t want to stay there for a long time but it can’t be helped. We have already moved the necessary amount of firewood and prepared ventilation measures. All you have to do is start a fire near the hole.

It’s a bit unfortunate that I can’t borrow Lucy’s magic but I can somehow survive for about a week.

I just hope that there is no damage to the camp while I am away.

When you finish your long training period at the library the weather will soon become quite warm. There will be considerable progress in magical engineering training.

It felt a bit strange like I was an animal hibernating in the winter.

by the way… Master Ed. Concerns from other areas… ”

yes? “The other way?”

Belle glanced at her chin with a worried expression… She immediately shook her head.

no. Anyway I think this is a bit out of the ordinary… ”

“If you say that it makes me worry more.”

Belle said to me with a brave face as she held Lucy who had lost the will to resist and was hanging around.

by all means… Fighting… Master Ed.”

*

The blueberry pie tasted like chewy sand.

These refreshments are directly from the most famous bakery in the capital. Clara who was excited to see her bachelor friend for the first time in a long time brought a lot of refreshments all of which were high-end items.

Clara was sipping black tea in front of her best friends Jenika and Anis on The Bachelor… I realized that this is what a thorn cushion is.

Student welfare facilities located in the student center in Gyosu-dong. The three sitting side by side in a corner of the bench there… There was no proper conversation for five minutes.

The first couple of times Clara was so excited that she tried to bring up topics like vacation schedules and classes for next semester… With only a few short answers exchanged there was only a subtle current between Yenika and Anis.

‘Why are they like this… .? Did you fight… ?’

Clara was sore and had a headache as she clearly looked like she was fighting.

Even in Sylvania the two most cherished friends are fighting… This is definitely heartbreaking.

At the beginning of vacation I remember the images of Yenika and Anis that I saw leaving school. Although she bickers here and there the sight of her friends always smiling makes Clara feel nostalgic.

The relationship between Yenika and Anis is long. Even if there is a fight it is highly likely that it will be something trivial or at least not big enough to split the friendship itself.

Anise has a stubborn side but her nature is good anyway. Needless to say Yenika. Even if those two were to fight how complicated and subtle would the issue be?

Here it is time to act as a bridge and reconcile the two. This was the moment when Clara thought about that and was about to speak out.

“I heard you were hugged by Ed.”

Those words from Yenika were said as plainly as possible without much emotion.

Clara managed to push down the black tea that was trying to flow back up her esophagus with almost superhuman patience.

“What does that mean?”

Clara just looked at Anise.

What do you mean by that? Anise. Just hearing those words makes you feel like… . Forcing herself to think over those words Clara observed Anise’s reaction clearly.

He lowered his gaze as if embarrassed… Sweat is dripping off my face… !

Yenikawa… I can’t make eye contact… !

anise… ?”

that… “It’s more of a misunderstanding huh.”

Anis quickly raised her gaze and spoke intently to Jenica while sweating profusely.

“It seems like the spirits relayed the story in a very condensed manner. No rather than that I think the story was conveyed by focusing too much on superficial facts. “The spirits won’t know the inside story.”

“What are you saying… ?”

Anise took a deep breath and regained her usual calm demeanor.

Anise Heilan senior assistant to the BA. For some reason Clara felt reassured because her face seemed to have returned to being thorough and meticulous in everything.

“I have something to apologize to Yenika. This is a fact that even Clara knew… . “Actually I was the one who tagged that guy Ed.”

Only then did Clara understand the whole story.

What Anis said to Clara before leaving for the summer break.

The very thing I said about flirting with Ed and seeing how he reacts… !

“Ah that’s it… ! Oh were you caught by Yenika?! Anise is also very rude… ! But this… It’s something to apologize for… !”

“That’s right Yenika. Sorry. Actually I couldn’t trust that guy named Ed Rosstaylor at all… No matter how you look at him he looks like a slut.. So he just tried to flirt… !”

what… ? thing… lie… No really.. really?”

This time Yenika’s pupils began to tremble violently. Clara’s heart began to pound as she understood her confused feelings.

Clara knows. What Anis said was not a lie.

Clearly Anis had confidently consulted with Clara. I’m planning to visit Ed to check his distribution.

“That kind of guy isn’t my style to begin with! “Hold on to your worries Ye Yenika!”

Anise’s pupils dropped as well and she suddenly began to rant.

“What good is there to follow someone like that who is like a bully from the start is arrogant and grumpy about everything and lives with pride huh?!”

“You’re speaking too harshly Anis! I don’t know much about Ed… !”

“No then what should you do with me!”

After saying that Anise took a deep breath hit the table and stood up.

that… I feel a bit sorry for taunting that man like that without consulting you… ! sorry! Yenika!”

“If you suddenly apologize like that… I am… I don’t know what else to do… ! If you react this way it’s like I’m with Ed… that… “It’s like a run..”

Clara felt as if her soul was leaving her.

Are you going to come all this way and say that we are not in a relationship like that? I don’t know what Ed would think but at least from Yenika’s perspective hasn’t the arm ridge already been crossed?

It’s so ridiculous that someone is the one who talks about Ed Ed Ed all the time every time we meet but now he reacts like that. I think it might be because I have a shy personality to begin with.

“And… Why are you doing something I didn’t ask you to do Anis! Whether Ed is a good person or not… It’s up to me to decide… ! No wait… when you talk like this it feels like Ed and I have a similar relationship… I didn’t mean to do this… ?”

“Yenika. “You’re so confused right now that you can’t control your thoughts.”

Yenika continued talking while stamping her feet.

“Do you know how much trouble I’ve had?! I can’t sleep at night… Anise is a very dear friend so why should she feel betrayed like this? Am I in a position where I can feel betrayed in the first place? Actually I am nothing… “I wonder if I am alone in worrying about so many topics..”

“Don’t worry Yenika. At least to that man you are quite a special person. I’m sure we’ll be more than friends but less than lovers. From what I’ve observed yes.”

“No if you say that I don’t know how to respond but no it’s a bit hot! hot!

Jenica whose fever had reached its limit fanned her face and looked at Anis and Clara in turn. I’m shy it’s not even for a day or two… Today it was even more so.

The reason is that Anise’s speaking style was too direct. Even though it seems like the progress is too fast for the heavenly girl Yenika… Then when are you going to quit? Her psychology also feels a bit mixed.

“Uh anyway… It’s such a strong misunderstanding… That must be a misunderstanding… huh… ! To be honest I don’t think it’s a good thing to judge and judge Ed in that way… The intention was for me so I can’t be angry about it… Anyway thanks for being honest Anise!”

Yenika’s face speaks so clearly. Clara finally felt relieved.

For anis that’s nothing. Although she is perfect in everything she does she causes discord by having Jenika step on her tail like this.

still… It worked out well… This is probably just a happening.

For a moment I was so dumbfounded that I thought Anise had really been tricked by Ed. Well then.

Yes… Yes Yenika.”

But Clara saw right through that face.

Looking at Anis answering Yenika’s words with a lowered gaze and a faint blush on her face…

Clara clearly realized the identity of the goosebumps running across the surface of her skin.

anise.

After the tea party Yenika walked quickly toward the northern forest.

It is said that he has been unable to visit Ed recently because he has been concentrating on spirit sensitivity training and wasting his energy on misunderstandings with Anis.

It seemed like she wanted to meet Ed periodically so it was natural that Yenika who had become much lighter mentally would head to the northern forest.

Clara who knows nothing about Ed’s residence only sees him as a person going to practice sensing spirits. She just waves her hand and says hello and sends him on his way.

When they were finally alone with Anis Clara called Anis’ name in a low voice.

“… “Clara can’t you ask me more details?”

If you want… But Anise… still… ”

“I have an idea.”

“What are you thinking?”

As we walked through the residential building together Clara asked quietly… Anise swallowed her dry saliva and spoke with a strangely desperate expression while holding onto Clara’s collar.

“Please introduce me to a guy.”

“… ”

It seems like there was a similar repertoire before but this time it’s a little more special.

But what is so unfortunate is… The truth is that Clara has no romantic experience…

“Such an unreasonable request… ”

“Is that so..?”

“There is no way a person’s mind can go back and forth easily like that in the first place. anise.

“No Clara. That’s something you don’t know. “The original mind and emotions can be overwritten!”

After saying that Anise made eye contact with Clara and her shoulders trembled.

“Don’t look at me like that Clara!”

“What eyes? “I just stared..!”

Anise continued to take deep breaths several times.

“Anyway I feel sorry for lying to Yenika but… I didn’t want to be a burden to Jenica right now. She can steal my heart. She can do whatever she wants. Just for me… “I just haven’t had any new relationships yet!”

“It’s okay if you explain slowly! Anis you are horny now! And new relationships don’t appear that easily in the first place!”

“Is that so?”

“Anis you are busy… I don’t tend to invest enough effort in other people to form a special relationship with them… Wait a minute isn’t this a bad time to say this… ?”

“Oh no.. That’s right… You’re right…

Anise grabbed Clara by the shoulder and shook her a couple of times.

Clara. Maybe it’s a stereotype that you should date a man. Thinking a little more forward-thinking… If you have a special relationship… Clara will you go out with me?!”

“Please come to your senses Anis. You have to think rationally. You have a calm personality. “Please put aside her guilt about Yenika and think about it.”

“That’s right. Clara. “You shouldn’t be swayed by something like that.”

Anis held on tightly to the spinning vision and spoke straight to Clara.

“Anyway it is said that when the body becomes distant the mind also becomes distant. The vacation will soon come to an end after this snow storm and the bachelor’s scholarship students will move to their new workplaces… Soon you won’t have to run into that guy anymore.

To begin with there is almost no overlap between me and that guy except for elemental science so the classes I take are probably very different… I just need to somehow get through it until my bachelor’s scholarship is over. okay… Until the time when bachelor’s scholarship students leave after completing their work assistance… !

“I have decided to work with these undergraduate scholarship students as student assistants throughout the semester!”

The next morning Assistant Professor Claire pretended to blow a trumpet and spoke to the students gathered in the lab.

“Both Clevius and Onyx are diligent and good at their work and Ed in particular is very good at his work proactive and good at everything so it would be a shame to hand him over to another lab.”

Assistant Professor Claire spoke with a relaxed expression and took a bite of the tart.

“Of course since I am closer to the status of a student assistant I will receive more scholarships and the atmosphere here will be more comfortable to work compared to other labs. Everyone is welcome~.”

Certainly the working environment in Assistant Professor Claire’s lab is not that bad. Above all the professor in charge has absolutely no sense of authority.

Anis who was sitting alone in the lab’s private seat behind the students who all seemed to be somewhat convinced… He was holding her face with an expression as if he had lost his country.
