We gathered for lunch and discussed our next action.

"So, Ms. Wendy, will you be joining our clan?" I asked.

"Yeah. But my main profession will be a professor though." Ms. Wendy said.

"Isn't it the kingdom's agent?"

"As an agent, I have to do my task seriously. I have to think that teaching is my main job." Ms. Wendy replied.

Although she said that, she has a smile on her face. She's actually very happy being assigned to do a teaching job.

"Between teaching Introductory school students and college students, which one do you like more?" Candy asked.

"Well, I don't know about college students since I haven't taught them yet, but I think I will enjoy teaching them more. After all, Introductory school is optional. The students can come and go as they please. But for college, the students there should be those who are interested in learning. Though I hope that's the case."

"Well, if it's you, you will be popular in no time. Just like when you entered Roy's school as a new teacher. Be careful of the boys there. Most of them are children from nobility who thinks that they are better than anyone. Some of them might force themselves on you." Candy said.

"After the training camp, although I'm not the strongest, I can handle some boys coming on to me. And if I have some kind of difficulty, I can just ask Roy. He's like the secret underworld boss of this city."

Everyone looked at me after Ms. Wendy said that.

"What? Of course, I will protect everyone here. But don't expect that I can come save you every time something happened. And it's not like I will know something about the college. I'm not going there anyway." I said.

"…haha. Is that so?" Ms. Wendy smiled.

"…you're scaring me. Ever since Albert decided to come here, everything anyone said is scaring me. If you have anything to say, please say it and don't keep it as secret." I said as I made eye contact with Albert.

"I'll tell you later. Don't you have something to ask the others? I'll wait until it's over. Just treat me like air." Albert said.

"You do know that I manipulate air, right?"

"…just treat me like a statue."

"I used statue as a punching bag."

"…Roy, you need to take care of your possessions properly. Anyway, just ignore me."

"I always kick something I ignore."

"How come you kicked something you ignore?! That's not ignoring at all!" Albert protested.

Sigh… in the end, I still have to listen to him, right? I guess I'll ask the other first.

"So… everyone, what are you going to do? Will you enter college or no?"

"I will enter Cassau magic academy. I will join the healing major, but I will try to enter earth and light elements class as well. Anyway, with what we have and what the college can offer, there's no point in going there other than for the tournament, right? College only gave some amount of magic stones, which we already have a lot of. From Roy diving into the sea, or from dungeon exploration. And we already have a lot of money as well. Any college we enter won't matter." Kayla said. And as usual, what she said is very logical.

I only thought of going to medical school only for getting the medical license after all, so I don't have anything to say about her opinion.

"So, Angela and Shirley, you two were planning to go to the college in the capital, right? Are you still going with that plan?" I asked Angela and Shirley.

"Yes. I don't know about other people, but this is my chance to fight the others here outside of sparring in the tournament. I will still attend the college there." Angela said.

"As for me, I will attend while letting everyone knows that I'm the princess. I believe going to the capital is the best choice." Shirley said.

"You can just go there back then with Marie, you know? You don't have to come here first." I said.

"But we have many things to bring. Oh, right! We'll be using your house in the capital. It's not like anyone is living there after all." Shirley said.

"I guess it's fine. I heard that there are multiple cases of people attempting to rob something from that house. Though it's pretty much empty."

"And give us a lot of allowance since you're rich." Shirley shamelessly asked for money.

"No. Your brother is the king! Just go ask him for money!" I pointed my finger to Albert.

"She said that she wants to be independent. So, I won't give her a single penny." Albert who has been quiet for a while suddenly spoke.

"Statue doesn't talk!"

Going to college is fine, but why do I have to give them allowance? They can just finish quests from the guild.

"Don't worry. I won't ask you anymore. I'll ask Kayla instead. Right, Kayla?" Shirley said.

"Sure. I'm the one managing Roy's financial. I will make sure that everyone received their share fairly. Like usual." Kayla said.

"What do you mean by everyone!? And why is it usually like this? Don't tell me that you have been taking money all this time from me!"

"Don't worry about it. Everyone does. It's not like you need to have so much money for yourself." Kayla said calmly.

…I need to keep watch on the money I have. Always!

"Sigh… so, what about everyone else? Who else is going to college?"

"Me! Me! Master, I'm going as well! But I'll take the exam for magic academy here! I don't want to go too far to the capital!" It was Jewel who said it.

"I see. Anyone else? Candy? Sophie? Lina? What about Kron?"

"I already have my degree. I can't attend university anymore." Candy said.

"I only have interest of serving my master." Lina said.

"As for me, I'll go to medical school. This way, I can assist you." Sophie said.

"Nice! I'm looking forward to that!" I said.

I will be the surgeon, and Sophie is the nurse. I can already see that I'll be slapping the naughty patients who tries to go for Sophie. And when I did, I will tell them that I'm a doctor. I can heal bruises. And then with Kayla as well, we'll be the perfect team.

"I won't go to school. I have allergic reaction to anything related to education." Kron said.

"Oh, yeah. That's a terrible condition." I said sarcastically.

I know the truth that he's going to be the official of the tournament. Albert asked him because of his rank as a hunter. He will be the referee for the tournament. I think Hill and Oleg were also asked to be the ref as well.

"As for me, I'll go attend the ghost academy." Suddenly, Sonia spoke.

"… a what academy?"

"Well, it's more like a ghost town in Monsters World. They have become ghosts much longer than me. I think I can learn many things there. A Werewolf told me about this. She said that she's interested in going there as well. She will be wearing a necklace filled with the soil so I can go to that ghost town. So, if you need anything, it might take a while until I arrive." Sonia said.

Seems like she doesn't want to be left out and unable to do anything. Being our way of communication is already good enough, but she's not satisfied with just that after watching us putting so much effort in going stronger.

"Well, what do you think, Albert?" I asked Albert since the two of us are the ones who asked for Sonia's service the most.

"I think it's fine. How long will the message be delayed? Just one hour, right? I think that's already fast enough. Usually, it takes days for mail to arrive, you know?" Albert replied.

"Then it's fine. Just come back from time to time, okay?" I said to Sonia.

"Yes!" She answered happily.

"Now it's my turn, right?" Albert said.

…I guess I can't escape from this, huh?

"What is it that you want to say?"

"Actually, for the extension of your medical license which will expire soon, you will have to attend Cassau Magic School. You will have to go to air element class." Albert said.

I kind of guessed that that was what he will say to me. Attending magic school. But just air magic? That mean it's still impossible for me to attend the tournament, right?

"You will still be considered as a special student in the medical faculty taught privately by a doctor, but you will be the teacher in air element classes." Albert said.

"…what?"

"Well, assistant teacher to be exact. But you will be the one who mainly teaches. The dean of medical school, is also the dean of the magic school. And he's also the headmaster of the Introductory School. He has three status since those position meant nothing. Most educated people would just go joining the magic research school instead. You know, the one that teaches students to invent something new? Since if the students inventing something new, the teacher's name will be spread as the one responsible for the students' upbringing." Albert continued.

"…what?"

What does that matter with me being a teacher? One week and I can't remember the name of just two people. But now I have to be a teacher for real?

"Anyway, you will be Wendy's co-worker. Get along with her, okay?"

"…what's the reason for me to be the teacher?" I asked.

"Well, the dean who watched your surgery before, is also an air element mage. He's the professor of air element classes as well, but there's no students there after the first class. He wants to get the students to be interested in air magic, and you gave him the chance to do that. Though he will mainly watch your lectures since he also doesn't know much about air element." Albert said.

So… the dean is actually my enemy! He's the one destroying my peace!

"Let's go meet him right away. He's also someone we can trust with our plan. You will come as well, Wendy."

That's how I got forced to be a teacher. Or was it a professor? An assistant professor? A lecturer? Whatever it is, it means that it's impossible for me to skip classes like I thought I would do in medical school.

Two years will pass soon, and my peace will be over as well…
