I Became The Academy's Narrow-Eyes

Chapter 19

19 – ah

The kettle is all boiling.

The moment Aidrin’s ears turned completely red, she immediately gave up her arms and eye contact, which symbolized her ‘indifferent composure’, and pushed her upper body forward as if she were going to attack him.

“Mu, mu, mu, mu, what nonsense!? My, I want to be friends with you!?”

“what. Did I misinterpret it?”

“Of course you misinterpreted it! You’re talking nonsense! in the first place! What do I miss, so I ask you to be my friend!?”

“Ah, indeed. That’s it too. There’s no reason someone the size of Miss Aidrin would want to be friends with someone like me.”

About the size of Aedrin.

At those words, Aidrin immediately calmed herself down and returned to the manner of a polite and relaxed aristocrat.

“Keuheum, I know.”

“Anyway, it seems that I was so happy to hear Miss Aedrin’s words that I inadvertently projected my wish.”

“what the. okay. It’s the first time you’ll have a chance to have contact with someone like me, so it’s understandable that your heart is in a hurry. I understand.”

It looked as if Aidrin’s shoulders were rising.

“It is as you say. What did you just say? He-Did you say that you would be willing to stay close to me if I asked you well? Hey, what was it that surprised you?”

“okay. Yes- Oh no! Not close, but acquaintances!”

“Ah-cha-cha, that’s right. know each other. know each other. This, it’s a problem because my mind keeps going ahead of me~ I must have been embarrassed?”

“what the. Calm down.”

A man who always behaves in a stately manner, and a woman who was flustered, pretended to be indifferent, and whose mood fluctuates from time to time.

Who the hell should panic and calm down?

If someone saw only the two of them without listening to the conversation, it would most likely be Aidrin’s side.

“so! What are you going to do?”

“of course! It’s a happy story for me. A chance to get acquainted with Miss Aedrin. When will a bastard like me get another precious opportunity like this!”

“hmm. I know.”

“Please, may I ask you a favor? Miss Aedrin.”

Aidrin indifferently watched Ceylon’s reaction.

His eyes were shining.

I couldn’t see the pupils because I was narrow-eyed, but it looked like that anyway.

Aidrin managed to hold back the expression that almost became arrogant at the reaction of that ‘showy’ respect, and let out an indifferent ‘um’ drool.

“Yeah, that’s how you say it. However, seeing what you do, I can change my mind at any time, so take care of yourself.”

“Is it possible? Oh, and Miss Aedrin? Can I ask you a question?”

“say it.”

“For what reason do I have to say that this is a proposal? An unconventional opportunity?”

“Kuhm.”

Something to come has come.

Aidrin was trembling inside, but outwardly she took her luck confidently.

“Tell me openly.”

From noble mtl dot com

“What are you talking about?”

“You’re actually… Are you resentful of me?”

“yes? me? Miss Aedrin? Why?”

“Don’t pretend you don’t know. Just now, I publicly challenged your records. Because of that, your position in the academy is in jeopardy. In a word, I can say that you are what you are now because of me. You must have thought so too, right?”

Aidrin involuntarily averted his gaze, fearing that he would now reveal the ill feelings he had been hiding.

“hmm? Why is it because of Miss Aedrin?”

“what?”

However, the plain voice that I heard soon turned my gaze to him again.

“Looking at the atmosphere at the time- if Miss Aedrin hadn’t raised the issue, other people would have.”

“…”

“In addition, thanks to Miss Aedrin’s raising the issue, it turned out that there was a problem with my records- everything that was wrong was righted. So, Miss Aedrin just did what she had to do. You also did the right thing. is not it?”

“what… ”

It was a theory.

An objective conclusion that even Adrin, who considered herself to be the perpetrator, could not reach.

How can you be a victim and talk objectively like that of someone else?

Aidrin stared through the cracks in his narrow eyes, saying that she would read his hidden true heart.

He still couldn’t see anything, but at least it didn’t look like he made up words he didn’t mean to impress himself.

It was a stark contrast to the bewildered and foolish side Aidrin originally possessed of Ceylon.

She was genuinely perplexed, forgetting that she was playing the role of a calm and laid-back aristocrat.

“What, what? you?”

“yes?”

“I don’t even know how to think properly… ?”

“…You seem a little embarrassed right now, but I think you need to look back on how much you said too much.”

After that, Aidrin pondered Ceylon’s opinion for a while and then nodded.

“okay. You’re right. Obviously, in that situation, even if it wasn’t me, someone else would have raised the issue. As a result, it is true that I raised the issue and corrected what was wrong.”

“Yes?”

“however-“

The problem was how Ceylon, the party involved, would accept it.

Humans are animals whose emotions take precedence over reason when it comes to their work.

Normally, if you were in Ceylon’s position, it was right to resent yourself emotionally, even if you knew it rationally.

“You’re really okay… ?”

“It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t sorry. well, anyway. I had a bigger income than that, so I’ll make it okay.”

“A bigger income than that? what is that… ?”

Ceylon put her lips on her index finger and thought about it, then smiled and said, just like that.

“It’s a secret.”

Clear the quest.

I couldn’t say that, so he evaded it appropriately.

“…”

However, Aidrin, unaware of this, stared at him in awe, and an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she shyly avoided her gaze and muttered,

What is it, my father is doing very well.

“yes?”

“Oh no! anyway. okay.”

Aidrin made a calm and relaxed aristocratic face again and looked at him proudly.

He didn’t even know that his face showed such an excited expression that others could see it.

“Hmm. To tell you the truth, I was a little worried about you. I feel like I’m not thinking too much. By the way, I’m glad You have your own thoughts.”

“Well, what the hell do I have to do to make my image look like that- it makes me reflect on my usual behavior. Well, whatever. To sum it up at this point- Miss Aedrin felt responsible for her actions and tried to take care of me, whose position within the academy was at stake.”

“Well, yes… ?”

“Miss Adrin is a kind person.”

“Seriously, be gentle with your flattery.”

Aidrin tried to react nonchalantly to what Ceylon said with a grin, but in the end she averted her gaze again.

“But, as I said, Miss Adrin need not hold me accountable for it.”

“What is that? Are you saying you don’t need me?”

Aidrin glared at him with a sidelong glance.

On the one hand, it seemed that he was watching timidly.

“hahahaha, that can’t be the case. I can’t be a good guy if I sell it like that. How can I use my own hands to create a precious relationship like Miss Aedrin? .”

be responsible

It’s really annoying and I don’t like it, but I can’t help it.

That was Adrin’s psychology to get involved with Ceylon.

However, at the point where Ceylon says that the responsibility is ‘a responsibility that you don’t have to feel’, the reason for her involvement with him disappears.

It’s a good thing.

Because it was really annoying and unpleasant.

In addition, from what I felt after having a conversation, he may not be the clumsy guy he thought he was.

Wouldn’t it be possible to do a great job of taking care of one’s own business?

And, maybe Ceylon is thinking the same thing.

It’s called meddling.

“…So, well. What do you want to do in the end?”

“yes?”

“You mean you don’t need my help?”

An attitude that has changed to passive.

slumped posture.

Aidrin looked up at Ceylon with raised eyes and tried to pretend to be indifferent.

Ceylon, who had been looking at the scene, soon made a foolish smile.

“Yeah~ That can’t be the case. So what I mean is that Miss Aedrin doesn’t have to feel responsible! But if Miss Aedrin is okay with it! Please! Regardless of shame! Dare! Can I rely on that good will? That’s what it means. was.”

“…okay?”

Aidrin stared at Ceylon for a moment and then cleared her throat.

“What? Why did you turn around like that when you said you were going to do it anyway?”

“hahahaha, I was afraid that if I accepted it, he would suddenly change his words because he would look too arrogant.”

“It’s stupid. What do you look at people as?”

All of a sudden, the sign of noticing Aidrin had completely disappeared.

She regained her original form and showed Ceylon the dignity of a nonchalant and leisurely aristocrat.

Ceylon thought to himself with great pleasure.

‘This person is really interesting.’

Likewise, Aidrin, who was in a very happy state at heart, continued to talk nonchalantly.

“Well, I can’t help it. If you go that far. Okay. I’ll help you. So you can adapt to the academy.”

“Hey~ I can’t be so reassured…! This, the road ahead is so bleak! I thought I might fail the entrance exam, but if this happens, I’ll have no choice but to pass the exam?”

“No fuss.”

by the way-

Ceylon looked around.

“Certainly, compared to the second test, the number of people has decreased noticeably?”

The waiting room for the 3rd test was noticeably smaller than the waiting room for the 2nd test.

Even so, the inside of the waiting room was still quiet as the second exam was almost over.

“Anyway, the difficulty of the test was quite high. Maybe the academy was conscious of the public opinion that the level of freshmen this time was particularly high. I think they were very determined.”

“Did we pass it?”

“Don’t be conceited. And, we are. Can you not tie me up with you?”

“Um~?

Ceylon’s narrow eyes and thin lips drew a meaningful line.

“What is that look?”

“No, it’s because I don’t think there was much of a difference between Adrin-yang and mine.”

“hey!”

Aidrin, who couldn’t stand it until the end, built a blood vessel in her neck and back! screamed

Looking at Aedrin like that, Ceylon thought to himself.

‘This person… is he from heaven…?’

In fact, when she showed a heart that deserves praise as an angel, the praise that had been quiet came out in a severe moment.

“huh?”
