Madman in a Fantasy World

2. Yeah, expel him~ Dropping out is enough~

On the way to the Jogarten dormitory, Raina reflected on what the dean said.

– Dean. I heard you called.

– Ah, student Raina. Can you call just one student and not another?

– All right. Which student would you like to call?

– I would like to ask Luke, who is ranked 200th in the first year.

Reina, recalling the brief and simple conversation with the dean, thought of Luke, who was ranked 200th in the first year.

‘Obviously… he was a student without magical powers.’

It would be weirder not knowing a student named Luke at Journal Academy than Reina, a sophomore, knowing Luke.

For the first reason, the Journal Academy ranks students according to the principle of merit.

People always look up to the top and bottom seats in awe, but the world doesn’t necessarily only look at the first and second place.

An excellent person tends to look down on those below him, and on top of that, middle-ranking students who have a sense of inferiority focus on putting down those below them rather than looking above them.

That’s why Luke, ranked 200th, was the object of teasing in all grades.

He was a person who could not be known even if he wanted to know.

Why is only Luke being bullied when there are up to 3rd graders?

When moving from the 1st year to the 2nd year, students who were expelled continued to appear, so from the 2nd year, only the real talent remained.

And the second reason.

This was because Luke was the first student with zero magical power since the founding of the Journal Academy.

Of course, it’s not unusual to have 0 magic power.

It was because even though he was ranked 200th, it was the first time since the founding of Journal Academia that a person with zero magic power had entered.

‘He must have come in as a theory.’

Because theory is also skill.

Thinking so, Reina was walking down the hallway of the dormitory, and before she knew it, she was standing in front of Luke’s dormitory door.

I wanted to take it as quickly as the dean called, so I knocked right away.

-smart.

But after knocking, no answer came back.

I didn’t hear it, so I knocked again, this time even talking.

-smart.

“Any Luke students? This is Raina from the student council. I have an urgent message to tell you.”

I could definitely feel the presence in the room, but this time as well, no answer came back.

Reina thought that she had done enough, but that the other person was deliberately ignoring her, so she decided to go in.

“I can feel the presence inside, but I don’t know why they don’t answer. I’ll just go in.”

I lowered the doorknob and pushed forward.

As the door opened, the shape of a man began to come into view.

It was there and there was no response.

‘Why?’

I had such a question, but it was not very important, so I buried it in a corner of my head.

“As expected. What on earth——–.”

However, Reina was speechless at the scene in front of her.

It was because the student who was presumed to be Luke was dancing and shaking his pelvis while looking at the wall.

‘······hallucination?’

It even caused an illusion that such a figure was a hallucination.

Reina herself is well aware that she is not the type to get flustered or startled easily, but this is the first time she has been so flustered in recent years.

Even though he entered the room, Luke didn’t seem to have any intention of hiding his ugliness.

As if he had no shame, Luke continued to dance so that he couldn’t keep his eyes open.

The disgusting appearance almost made me feel sick, but I managed to endure it and bring out the purpose of coming here.

“Student Luke. This is the dean’s call. You can go to the dean’s office now.”

“Are you the dean?”

Reina wanted to point out something about Luke’s title, but she deliberately didn’t.

It was because they had different titles and subconsciously had the prejudice that they could be like that because they were commoners.

“Don’t you know why?”

“I don’t know because I was only asked to be called.”

To Luke’s question, Reina answered while looking back.

In fact, it’s really rare to be called directly by the dean rather than a teacher, and given Luke’s ranking of 200th, I knew for what reason he was called.

I deliberately didn’t say anything because I thought I’d be bombarded with questions if I said it.

“Anyway, please prepare quickly.”

Because of Luke, who seemed to have no intention of stopping that disgusting dance even while talking to herself, Reina wanted to finish the job she was asked to do and run away as soon as possible.

***

-smart.

“Dean. I brought you the Luke student you said.”

When Reina spoke, a clear, sweet voice came from the dean’s office.

“Come on in.”

With permission from inside, Luke and Reina opened the classy-looking door and entered the dean’s office.

“Thank you, student Raina.”

“No. Then I’ll be on my way.”

Having fulfilled her original purpose, Reina quickly left Luke’s place.

“Welcome, student Luke.”

Luke looked at the dean who had called him.

Pure white hair that seemed like it could be anything.

Glittering eyes that seemed to be embedded with sapphires.

Even though he is over 30, he looks like he is in his 20s and has a well-rounded face.

And a glamorous body that is not covered by the face.

It was Lucia Marigold, the dean of the Journal Academy.

‘Wow, you’re so pretty. Is this the average of this world…?’

The character that I only saw in writing exists in front of my eyes, so I look at it inadvertently.

Especially if it is Yeo-po, a roommate who has never had a relationship with a woman.

“Luke student?”

Luke, who was staring blankly at Lucia, came to his senses when he heard a voice calling him.

“Yes?”

“Do you have any idea why I called?”

Lucia, who placed her hands neatly on the desk, asked with a serious expression.

‘No, why are you asking me about that?’

Do you know why he called me after he called me?

I was called by my mother and said, ‘Do you know why?’ When asked, Mom didn’t say anything, but she was stabbed by herself and confessed everything she didn’t have.

is this also like that?

But this time, I have nothing to tell you.

Even if I possessed the main character, I would not have known, but I possessed as an extra. How do I know what I did wrong?

Could it be that right before I possessed it, did I even put a concussion so that the character named Luke came to me?

“Whoops. I’m not trying to scold you, so you don’t have to be so nervous.”

Luke wasn’t particularly nervous, but there was no way Lucia knew about it.

‘What do I need to be nervous about.’

If Luke fainted, I called him to scold him.

Then it would be right to be nervous.

Luke did it, didn’t I?

I don’t know what to say anyway, so I’ll just double it.

“It’s not that it’s not unimportant. Student Luke, I’ll tell you why I called you, so don’t be surprised by what I have to say.”

Lucia made a serious expression once again.

“Student Luke is expelled.”

withdrawal from the school.

It is more than a shock to the students who entered this meritocracy academy after putting all their efforts into it.

“Oh yeah?”

However, Lucia couldn’t help but be taken aback by Luke who replied with a nonchalant expression as if he wasn’t interested.

Are you too shocked to react?

That was the best Lucia could think of.

“That… student Luke. Don’t worry. I called to prevent that from happening.”

It was heartbreaking for Lucia to see students being expelled every year.

How much did the students put in to enter the best academy in the empire?

Years of hard work vanish in an instant.

In order to prevent that from happening, Lucia has been using various methods to help many students, but even so, many students have been expelled.

No matter what you try to do with the dean’s authority, if the dean does everything as he pleases, that’s an abuse of power.

So, I was helping students in such a reasonable way.

‘It’s just as I saw it in the novel.’

In the novel, Lucia is a person who treats students with care so much that she would not even think of being the dean of a meritocracy school.

Even if it was at the bottom of the 200th ranking like Luke.

Lucia Marigold, who is not a heroine, but plays quite a part in the story.

When I read the novel, I wondered why he wasn’t a heroine.

‘That’s it.’

I was possessed by the academy stuff, so I had the intention of attending, but when I heard that I was expelled…

‘Rather good!’

what is the academy

isn’t it school

Who would want to go to the same school they were tired of in their previous lives?

There is no need to be confined in the prison called the academy or the prison called the classroom for the crime of being a student, wearing the prison uniform called the school uniform and being punished by studying!

“I’ll tell you how to avoid being expelled from now on.”

“I will drop out.”

“······Yes?”

At Luke’s answer, Lucia put on a dumbfounded expression.

“What, what did you say…?”

“I’m dropping out.”

Are you deaf at a young age?

oops, sorry

Luke thought so, but the reality was completely different.

‘I’m dropping out…?’

Of course, Lucia herself respected the will of the students, so she couldn’t say anything about dropping out.

However, if Luke, who has no magical powers, was able to enter the academy, it would have meant that he had put in that much effort.

I was taken aback because it was unexpected to give up so easily.

“Is it okay if I ask why you entered the academy?”

It’s an academy that I’ve been working hard on, but maybe it had a purpose.

And now that I have achieved that goal, I decided to drop out.

If he drops out, he is not his student, but he wanted to help if there was anything he could do.

As a dean, this was the only thing he could do for the students.

After the question was finished, after a while, Luke opened his mouth.

“Mole? Lou.”
