Until I, A Fallen Nobleman, Was Called the Great Sage With My Hazure Skill “Super Jack-of-All-Trades

–The day after I told Ryuuze the truth, I was on my way to see Verna-sensei. The only person who knew that I was going to get rid of Brao and return my father to his lord was Verna-sensei. I walked along the mountain path, thinking that I should tell her what I had told Ryuuze.

“Since brother is playing with Nora, I guess it’s good they didn’t follow me?.”

I felt a little sad, but I was also glad that they were happy. Besides, the two of them don’t belong in this revenge drama. In the meantime, I arrived at Verna-sensei’s house. I knock on the door, thinking that this mountain road is getting easier.

“Hello, Verna-sensei!”

“Oh my, Lars-kun? It’s been a long time!”

Teacher opened the door and welcomed me with a big smile on her face. In fact, I hadn’t seen her since the entrance ceremony, and since I had to go back and forth between the academy, home, and the guild every day, I rarely came here.

“Fufu, is it fun in the academy? Are you able to control your magic properly?”

“That’s all right. But–“

I sat down on a chair in the living room and told her about yesterday’s events. That they had told Ryuuze, Brao’s son, of all people. And that if Ryuuze told Brao, they might be in danger.

“…… I thought it was careless of me, but I knew that he’s feeling painful, so I answered him ……”

I know all too well how hard it is to be ignored. I told teacher that I knew I had to keep going, and that if they despised me, they would eventually stop dealing with me.

The teacher thought about it for a while, then put her hand on my head and smiled.

“You’re right, that was careless. But that kid said that he wanted to be friends with Lars-kun, didn’t he? So I’m sure it won’t turn out bad. I’m sure that he will respond to you just as you responded to him. That’s what I think.”

“Teacher ……”

I fought back the sudden urge to cry and looked at Verna-sensei in the eye. At that moment, Verna-sensei’s face became the most serious I’ve ever seen, and she sat down on her chair, leaned back and opened her mouth.

“That’s fine for children, but I’m not so optimistic. We never know where what you ‘know’ might leak out, Lars-kun …… Okay, I’m going to start observing Lars-kun’s house today.”

“What?”

Not knowing her aim, I let out a dumb voice, she says winking. With a somewhat mischievous smile.

“I’m going to protect your family, Lars-kun. You have to go to the academy now that you can’t show your true potential, and I’m very bored right now, okay♪”

“B-But I can’t ask teacher to go that far!?”

“It’s alright, I love your mother and father and Dedite-kun and Nina and of course Lars-kun! And we’re neighbors, after all.”

“No, it’s just that the only house in the mountains is Teacher’s ……”

When she decides to do something, she does it, the teacher said while humming as she began to prepare the tea. When she is in a good mood, the teacher has a habit of humming, so she seems to be in a very good mood.

While drinking the tea, we talked about our time at school. Was it interesting that she was interested in Lucierl and the brainy girl, Makina? I guess the wizard is also interested in seeing Urka’s [Spiritual Art] if she has the chance.

And–

“Then, let’s do some training for the first time in a while. Starting from water.”

“Uhhh …… you’re starting with what I’m not very good”

“That’s true, because if you only do what you’re good at, it’ll be unbalanced. And with your [Super Jack-of-all-Trades], you’ll eventually get good at it, right?”

“That’s …… maybe.”

I make a ball of water the size of a soccer ball in my palm as I talk. Verna-sensei doesn’t talk to me because she wants to, but because she wants to break my concentration.

“If you can do a lot of things, maybe Luciel-chan will come to like you??”

“Gah ……!?”

Immediately afterwards, there was an explosion with a splattering sound, and I was soaked in water. When she saw this, Verna-sensei laughed and gives me a towel.

“Ufufu. It’s not enough yet. Do you think this is enough for a fire?”

“That’s right. I’ll admit that my training is lacking ……”

Since I started going to the academy, I have much less free time, so I have no choice but to excuse myself and use to create a fireball about the same size as before.

“…… Hmm. I knew it, this one is stable. To be honest, it’s probably better than mine.”

“You’re really good at giving compliments, aren’t you, Verna-sensei.”

I know it’s a way of dropping the ball on me, but it’s still nice to be praised. Then, Berna-sensei said.

“How is your recovery magic? I know you don’t get hurt much, but do you use it?”

“Oh, I don’t use it. I don’t get much chance to use it, actually.”

“Well, unless you’re in the hospital, it’s not often. Well then, let’s focus on training today.”

“No, I’m not injured so I can’t ……”

“You can do it this way!”

With a smile, she took out a knife and quickly made a cut on her arm. A red streak ran down the pale skin of the teacher, and I felt a pain in my chest.

“H-Hey, teacher!?”

“Here, heal it. I’ll bleed if you don’t.”

“Why do you look so happy!? ”

When I cast a spell, a warm glow appears on the wound, and the wound disappears in a flash. When I wipe off the blood, I’m relieved to see that it’s all gone.

“Yep, yep, well done. Let’s keep going like this!”

“Ehhhhhhhhhhhh!?”

After this, I was made to practice like this. …… She’s really so forceful. ……

That night…

“Sheesh, It’s a good paycheck, but it’s boring to just watch.”

“Don’t say that, he’s the lord, so he gets to eat.”

“Watching that maid …… I wonder what he’s afraid of ……?”

“I don’t know. That’s exactly what’s superfluous. Just keep an eye on the house as usual.”

“It’s a shame …… She has a pretty face. The wife there is pretty and the girl who comes to visit often is cute too.”

“……”

“Ah, Why the hell are you distancing away from me? I’m not a pedophile, I’m just saying she’s cute.”

Thud.

“What? What’s up, dude? He’s not he–“

Thud!

The two men that Brao is pointing at Nina lose consciousness shortly afterwards.

Because–

“Oh my, was the pit a little too deep? It’s hard to tell Lars-kun to tighten up his control.”

Verna said while looking down at the pit. As she had declared, she had begun to observe the Irving family.

“I’ve noticed it before, but they didn’t do much harm, so I left it alone, but not knowing how it will turn out is a little bit tricky, I guess? If I interfere too much, my presence will be known and it will be difficult to move, so it’s important to find the right balance. It would be nice to have a few more allies.”

Verna said, hiding in the dark.

I want to move on ……! But we also need to get the “teacher” out: ……

Thank you for reading!

“We’ve got to create a flow.”

Right …… You’ll need to look at it from the other side, so it might be a little bewildering ……
