Assistant Teacher at a Girls Magic School - CH 30
“Alright, Brandell-sensei’s desk is here.”
At Fran’s direction…
Lou was given a seat at the far end of one of the two empty rows in the staff room.
Beside him was Adeline, and the one next to her was Liliane, whom Lou had just described as having ‘t*ts like a cow.’
“My apologies.”
“It’s fine. But the cow analogy is a bit…”
Liliane waved her hands as Lou apologized sincerely.
It was Lou’s expression that was the problem.
However, Liliane seemed to be fully aware of her breasts’ appeal to men.
Just then.
A stalwart figure approached her.
What!
It was Kelturi who followed Lou.
“May I have a word with you? Brulee-sensei, Lou is, in fact, not one-sidedly bad.”
“Huh? What do you mean by that, Vice-principal?”
Liliane was in doubt.
Kelturi’s expression, on the other hand, remained unchanged as she continued.
“Yes, among us Arlvs, that is the highest compliment we can give.”
“Eh? The highest compliment? Being a cow?”
“Yeah!”
“Um…can you expound on it?”
“Sure.”
Liliane still looked dubious.
In response to her request, Kelturi began to speak.
Women had been a symbol of fertility since time immemorial.
However, the Arlvs were basically slender in build.
Therefore, they had a strong tendency to seek rich breasts as a symbol of divine femininity.
The Arlvs basically dwelled in the forest and had no livestocks.
Such was the image of the Fertility Goddess when the Arlvs first saw the udder of a cow milked by humans.
As a result…
A bountiful udder like a cow’s…
This was said to have become a metaphor for the Goddess of Fertility.
When Liliane heard the word “Goddess” from Kelturi, her attitude changed completely.
She smiled and whispered to Lou.
“Hahaha, Lou-sensei, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.”
When Fran heard Kelturi’s explanation, she was relieved to hear that Lou was not speaking out of insolence. Nevertheless…
For some reason, her mixed feelings remained.
Kelturi had brilliantly supported Lou, while she had only reprimanded him harshly.
Lou bowed to Liliane, who was in a much better mood and gave him a wink, and sat down in his chair.
Then he took out a dozen or so textbooks at once from his storage bracelet and began to arrange them on his desk.
What he took out was not limited to textbooks.
From writing utensils to cups for drinking tea…
A variety of things soon lined up on his desk.
The teachers, who were casually watching the scene, exclaimed in surprise.
“Eh?”
“What?”
“Ugh, no way!”
“What the hell?”
“Um… isn’t that a magical storage?”
To the surprised teachers, Adeline Colette, a newcomer like Lou, asked with some curiosity.
However, it was Clotilde Baudrier, who was conducting classes on the study of magical tools, who shook her head in amazement.
“Colette-sensei! What are you talking about! It’s an order of magnitude better than ordinary storage magical tools.”
“Yes, that’s right!”
The younger of the Bois de Fleur sisters, Rene, seconded.
“A magical storage is quite time-consuming to use. On top of that, you’ll have to recite a complicated magic formula each time you take something in and out. But Lou-sensei did everything so easily, didn’t he?”
Rene and the others’ surprise did not end there.
“The first thing that struck me was the compact size of the bracelet, and yet, the way it looked, it still had plenty of room. I’ve never seen anything with that much storage capacity.”
High-grade magical tools, such as the storage bracelet Lou used, could only be found in the ancient ruins.
However, the chances of them being unearthed were slim, and they were mostly displayed in museums.
It was understandable why they were surprised to see such a valuable item being used so carelessly on a daily basis.
Clotilde couldn’t hold herself back anymore.
Her curiosity, peculiar to a wizard, who desired to know the origin of the bracelet, exploded.
“Brandell-sensei! That!”
“That?”
“That bracelet! Is it an ancient artificial artifact or something? That looks…It looks relatively new, though.”
Clotilde looked curious and asked about Lou’s bracelet.
However, Lou remained laid-back.
“Hahaha, please feel free to call me Lou.”
Lou replied cheerfully.
But when he saw that Clotilde and the others were looking at his bracelet, he tilted his head.
“Oh, this bracelet? It’s not some ancient artifact, it’s my own work…”
A storage bracelet with an incredible storage capacity…
It’s a magical artifact Lou made!
Clotilde and Rene gasped in unison upon hearing this astounding information.
“Y-Y-You made it yourself?! Eeehhh?!”
“Yeah, it’s a mithril bracelet that the Arlvs made, and I enchanted it with a spell.”
“…………”
“…………”
This was no longer a limited conversation between Lou, Clotilde and the others.
The roomful of staff were staring at Lou.
“It’s handy, this. You don’t have to cast a magic spell every time, just infuse your own magical aura and register it in the bracelet, and you can immediately deal with what you want to take out.”
Lou…
He never registered that he was speaking of something unthinkable.
“My…word!”
“Nyhahaha…”
Fran clasped her head in her hands, but Adelaide laughed in amusement.
They told Lou to restrain revealing too much of his abilities…
The storage bracelet disclosed the best of Lou’s ability in magical incantations…
It was something he had already decided to do when he promised Adelaide.
The knights were ordered to keep quiet about the powers of the bracelet…
Adelaide knew that the details of the incident, along with the magic that Lou had used, would one day come to light.
Fran glanced at her mother, restraining her laughter.
“All right.”
Adelaide whispered, “Hey,” to Fran.
When Clotilde and Rene heard Lou’s answer, they pushed Liliane out of the way…
After asking permission from Lou, they touched the bracelet curiously.
Liliane, who had been pushed out of the way by Clotilde and Rene, pouted, her cheeks puffing out.
However, her anger was completely brushed off…
“Re-Rene-sensei! Wow, we can use some spell enchantments too, but not to this extent.”
Clotilde said in excitement, and Rene agreed, “I-Indeed.”
This being the case…
It was only natural that they were interested in the method of making the bracelet.
“Lou-sensei! Please teach us how to do it!”
“Yes, yes, by all means!”
Clotilde and Rene approached Lou…
Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa!!!
There again, Kelturi clapped her hands loudly.
Then she ordered all the teachers to take their seats.
“Everyone! You are originally here to prepare for the spring semester starting tomorrow, so please get back to your duties!”
After hearing Kelturi’s censure, Clotilde and Rene had no choice but to return to their seats and begin their work.
***
“Lou-sensei! Please follow me to the Vice Principal’s office at once!”
Kelturi told Lou, maintaining her stern expression, and left the staff room.
Adelaide and Fran also left the staff room and returned to their respective offices…
This time, Cassandra, the other Bois de Fleur sister, stepped approached Lou.
In addition to their previous exchanges, Cassandra was curious about Lou’s unusual appearance.
“Excuse me, what specialty are you going to teach, Lou-sensei?”
However, Rene immediately interrupted her sister.
“Why are you even asking? Sister, he can do such wonderful spell enchantments. Of course, he’s going to teach magical tools, am I right?”
“Shut up! Rene, you shut up!”
Cassandra controlled her sister with her hand and enthusiastically asked again, “Tell me.”
Lou returned with a smile.
In accordance with his agreement with Adelaide and Fran, he said, “My specialties are magical attack and summoning.”
Lou answered Cassandra’s question, then…
He remembered that Cassandra was in charge of the same subject.
When Cassandra found out that he would be teaching the same subject, her eyes shone brightly.
“Oohh! Me too! All right, Lou-sensei, let’s have a magical match!”
“That’s enough, Sister.”
“Kyaah!”
A scream burst out as Rene struck Cassandra on the shin there and then with her favorite magic wand.
“Lou-sensei, please excuse her. This woman easily loses sight of her surroundings.”
Rene said nonchalantly after hitting her sister.
She apologized for Cassandra, who was writhing in pain, disregarding everything.
“I won’t bother you anymore. Please continue your work.”
Rene smiled smugly.
Meanwhile…
Cindy, the head of the department, also stepped forward.
“My, my, you’re quite popular Lou-kun. Now then, if your specialties are magic attack and summoning, you’ll need to review them with me.”
“Review? We’re going over the class content, got it!”
“Good answer. Do you know the contents of the textbooks? What are your aptitude and semi-aptitude, Lou-kun?”
“Em, I think fire is my aptitude and wind is my semi-aptitude.”
“Huh? You’re the same as the Chairman and acting principal. When it comes to specialized courses, especially when attributes are involved, an assistant homeroom teacher often follows up beyond the boundaries of the class he or she is in charge of. This year, Adeline-san and you are the assistant homeroom teachers.
“I understand.”
In this Girls Magical School, an assistant homeroom teacher was basically an apprentice who would follow an experienced teacher and learn how to teach.
However, in Lou’s case, he was Fran’s follower, so he was Fran’s assistant teacher.
Cindy and Cassandra were in charge of magic attack and summoning classes, the same as Lou, which also meant that he had the opportunity to help them with their classes.
While rubbing her sore shins, Cassandra gave a thumbs-up.
And then chuckled.
Cassandra gave a thumbs up…
Rather than being happy to have someone help her with her class, she was glad to be able to do it without being pointed at.
In a sense, she had an easy-to-understand personality.
Some time passed as they chatted.
“Lou-sensei… you should have been at the Vice-principal’s office already. Isn’t this bad?”
Cindy said, laughing mischievously.
“Ah, right…”
Indeed, Kelturi had ordered him.
Lou also muttered and sat up, bowing to Cindy.
He also bowed to everyone before leaving the staff room.
When he left the staff room…
Fran stood in a daze.
She was wondering what Lou was going to talk about with Kelturi.
Lou waved his hand as if to tell her not to worry…
Then he went and knocked on the door of the Vice-principal’s office.
