Chapter 59: First Day On The Job (1/2)
"Easy… take it slow There you go" Elijah supported otten injured and also since the last tihout ish
"Kyu…" Sylvie looked at me with as close of a concerned face she could have for a fox-likeup on top of my head, afraid that I wouldn't be able to hold her up
Elijah came over to my hospital roo off my day as a professor for the Practical Mana Manipulation class and I wasn't so eager inout every couple of steps and et to the class, let alone teach it
After slowly getting used to walking, I stopped leaning on Elijah for support and used Dawn's Ballad asstick I couldn't help but chuckle because of the ill-huht that this sas nothingstick when in fact, it was a priceless sword I shook my head at the fact thatof my current situation
Elijah wrapped the handle and sheath in a white bandage both for comfort and for safety from suspicious eyes Here I was, a twelve-year-old, already using a cane to supportto be okay by yourself? Maybe I should at least help you out in between classes today?" Elijah's face wrinkled in concern as he stuck close by me, ready to catch me if I stumbled
"I'll be okay" I didn't have the confidence to say that I wouldn't fall, but I didn't want to keep Elijah constantly by my side
As we arrived in front of the classroolasses, and I kneas hesitant to let o by myself
"Arthur Let me help you"
I turned my head around to see Princess Kathyln run towardme a chance to respond, she placed her arm around my waist as she dipped underneathst—sword, as support
"Uhh… okay Thank you" I shrugged at Elijah, who stood with jaws agape He held up two fingers as he mouthed the word 'princesses' but I just shook my head and turned back to make my way inside my roo today!"
"Oh really? I liked Professor Glory, though"
"Anyone should be better than Professor Geist, right?"
"You never knoe erous weirdo this time"
"Hey, isn't that the disciplinary com?"
The various discussions the students were having all changed to murmurs about me as soon as I walked in
"I'll be fine now, Princess Kathyln Thank you" I eased my arm off of her shoulders
"You need help up the stairs…" Her expressionless face didn't match the concern in her voice I just shook o first
Sylvie followed close behind as I walked to thesmall hops towards the moveable podium that was placed in the center of the small stadium
"Whew…" I let out a deep breath in relief as I put all of ht
Looking up, I spotted Feyrith in one of the desks with a curious expression on his face As soon as Kathyln reached her desk, I spotted her looking back, trying to find ave one up the stairs behind her and instead, moved to the middle of the roost the classmates centered around an wondering what I was doing leaning against the professor's podium
"I'm not sure how many of you know my name, but I believe that most of you at least knoho I am My name is Arthur Leywin, a disciplinary co brother, and your new professor Let's get along"
I counted down inwhen the class would erupt Almost exactly in sync, the entitled students that filled the classrooer as they shouted to stop kidding around and get back to my seat
"You expect us to believe that a brat like you is our new professor?" one of the second-years exclaiet back up here! Who do you think you are?" one short first-year barked
I let out a pained breath as I relished the thought of being able to teach this class while lying down
This would be a lot easier if Professor Glory or Director Goodsky let the class know that I would be teaching beforehand She should have at least given me an official docu her, I couldn't help but wonder if Director Goodsky did this on purpose
It, at least, seeuys believe me if I said that Director Goodsky appointed me to be the professor for this class for the remainder of the se!"
"Shut up!"
Another round of protests resounded within the roo to my fellow committee members, I could see Feyrith's sharp face, filled with a mixture of incredulity and doubt, while Kathlyn wore a perplexed expression
"Don't get so cocky just because you beat the old professor! Do you think you could've won if Princess Kathyln and Feyrith didn't tire him out?" a different second-year jue with a loud thud
The student had a pretty big build, and judging from the poor circulation ofable to aug strides towards e Feyrith stood up, ready to juuy but I just shook esture as a taunt, he roared, "You shaking your head at me now? Who do you think you are?"
Half of the students were a bit nervous, not wanting to get caught up in another dra Mr Brute on
shi+fting le word
"Sit"
