âAssistant Marmar, hurry up and distribute it. We have to start the lecture soon.â
At the behest of Professor Stella, the Imp Nun Marmar accelerated her speed to quickly hand out the syllabus. When she came to my side, I quietly asked.
âMarmar, what are you doing here? How are you an Assistant?â
âAhâŠ! ComradeâŠ! I got a job as an Assistant here⊠! Iâll tell you the details on Fairy NightâŠ!â
âWhat âFairy Nightâ?â
âYou have not received an invitation yet? No worriesâŠ! Iâll send you an invitation to your dormitory laterâŠ!â
And what happened with her tone?
Every time I met her, I felt like she kept getting weirder beyond my thoughts and expectations. I hired her for 12 gold, but why was I the one feeling worn outâŠ
At this moment, Professor Stella made me snap out of my thought as she slammed the table.
âAssistant Marmar, make haste!â
âAhâŠ! My apologies⊠â
Marmar hurriedly distributed all the syllabus in her hand to the studentsâ desks. Unable to bear seeing Marmar like this, I suggested.
âYou can just give everything to the person in front and tell them to pass it on.â
âIndeed, there is such a wayâŠ!â
After doing her task, Marmar stood next to Professor Stellaâs desk. Meanwhile, the students were murmuring about the fact that there was an Imp.
âArenât imps monsters? Why is one here in Ark? Isnât this place run by the Church?
âWhat is an imp doing here? Now that I think about it, I also attended a lecture with an ogre earlierâŠ
âWhat, an ogre taking a class? Stop lying.
âItâs true! It was a lecture on faith and philosophy. What is an ogreâŠ.
As it was the first lecture, the atmosphere was quite chaotic. Then, Stella slammed her desk again.
âOkay then, todayâs lecture is over. There will be another lecture tomorrow, on Friday morning. Donât be late. And Marmar, remain here.â
âWhaâŠ! But this Marmar didnât do anything wrongâŠ!â
âDidnât you forget to feed Tweety? Where is Tweety now? I havenât seen the little fella since morning.â
However, it was entirely at the discretion of the professor to run the lecture. If the professor said the lecture was over, as a student, there would be nothing you can do.
âWell, itâs the first day, this is nice.
âTrue, Professor Belhawk is really cool! If it had been Professor Migolas, we would have been âlecturedâ from the very first day, right?
As the students left, they kept praising Professor Belhawk.
According to my knowledge, one had to pay quite a bit of money to attend lectures here at Ark.
⊠And yet, these fools just decided to blow their tuition away like this?
Looking back, I might have acted the same when I was a student. Perhaps, no matter the world, people simply did not like to study.
Still, this lecture was advantageous as it provided me with a chance to contact the Young Lady of the Belhawkâs.
Stella Von Belhawk, a member of the four Great Families.
I would have to think about how I should approach this situationâŠ
Eventually, I also left the classroom myself.
Originally, the Exploring Fairies Lecture went from 4:30pm to 6:00pm.
But it ended quickly, making me think about what I should do with this spare time.
After all, I didnât just want to waste an hour doing nothing.
Should I experiment with my magic? Perhaps, see how many pigeons I could control at once? Or should I practice âBelialâ that I learned yesterday?
While deep in thought, I suddenly felt a dizzying vertigo in my head.
If I were to describe it, this feeling resembled some sort of sudden anemia. I felt nauseous and sick.
Instinctively, I could tell that this was a warning of some kind of exhaustion.
Should I call it a warning signal that the energy flowing through my body, that thing called âmanaâ, was running out?
I was still a novice Mage who just reached Level 3.
In terms of rank, it was around 1.5th-ish.
My Mana Pool was so shallow that it seemed to bottom out after controlling a few birds. In the first place, my Mana Circuit itself was destroyed by the Jeoksangari poison.
I wiped off my nosebleed and continued walking as something came to mind. With unobstructed steps, I headed towards the building located in the center of Ark.
This was where the Central Cadet Office, as well as other club buildings and affiliated organizations, was located.
The magnificent building would not lose out if compared to a mansion or a government office. Upon going inside, I looked at the signboards and headed towards a place.
It was a nursing facility, located in the corner on the first floor of the central building.
Upon knocking on the door, I felt a presence inside.
âIâm currently experiencing some vertigo. Can I come in for a moment?â
âAh, yes, please come in.
Only then did I open the door and go inside.
A bed with a white duvet, several curtains, and a bitter smell of alcohol made the room look like a hospital.
The woman sitting in front of the chair was also wearing a white gown and a stethoscope-like thing over her chest. She looked just like a doctor.
Her air was mature, fitting for someone around early thirties. The red eyes behind her glasses also looked magical and intelligent.
The woman asked while tying her red hair back. Those smiling red lips teased out someâ fuhuhu. Overall, she fitted the word âbewitchingâ very well.
At the same, this lady also seemed to have a dangerous side, like a poisonous viper in the dark.
⊠Actually, she really did harbor poison.
I was probably the only person in this school who knew that. Sitting in the chair in front of her, I could only hope that the poison wouldnât strike me.
âI suddenly got dizzy after casting spells. I also got a nosebleed.â
âThatâs Mana Exhaustion. Sit here. Iâll give you an injection.â
She then caught my arm and scrubbed it with an alcohol swab.
I didnât like injections because this body was particularly sensitive to pain.
Was it a characteristic of a Half-Nymph? Being afraid of injections?
