Academy’s Undercover Professor

Violettas active use of wind magic made it possible to quickly deal with the remnants of the Red Society. There must have been quite a bit of commotion, but the cops dont come all the way here since this is a sparsely populated alleyway, thats why murders take place like meals here.

Is it all over?

Yes. There doesnt seem to be anyone left.

Violetta said as she shook her hand. Perhaps it was because she had wasted quite a bit of mana when she was using attack magic but her voice seemed to be a bit tired.

I stood still and secretly took out a pill and chewed it.

Really. If youre fine, please help me.

What do you mean?

Is this a test to check my skills?

.

I dont know what youre talking about. Oh, is it because I just watched the remnants of the Red Society get cleaned up? Because I cant spend mana carelessly, I just stayed still. Wouldnt I be a hindrance if I interfered when my allies use magic?

Apparently, Violetta interpreted my attitude a little differently.

It doesnt matter.

I dont need to correct the misunderstanding, my priority is to restore my mana.

These guys did it pretty splendidly. After the organization was completely destroyed, they recruited people to launch a surprise attack.

They must have been desperate or maybe too greedy.

Well, they must have thought that they would have everything if they killed us but they would know for sure that they would suffer losses unless they were idiots.

Violetta couldnt finish her words properly because she had something to do with it. Come to think of it, the Red Society hired the Calsapa Assassins. No matter how novice they are, they are highly trained assassins so they should be very expensive.

Did they have enough money?

It wouldnt have been easy even if they had a slush fund that they hid. Besides, those bastards, knowing that the assassins failed to kill us, did not run away and rushed at us. Did they think weve lost our strength? Didnt the people who lived in the back alleys know about it?

They couldnt run away.

They couldnt escape and had no choice but to fight us. Then why couldnt they escape?

They were pushed.

Yes?

The remnants of the Red Society.

At my point, Violetta seemed to have realized something, and exclaimed,

If so, then there are other people involved in this matter.

They probably provided the money to hire the assassins.

Who are they? There cant be too many people who have that kind of power in the back alley.

I shook my head.

Maybe its not someone from this world.

I hope so.

Okay. Someone up there, who doesnt like this situation, must have been involved.

Also, someone who is somewhat nimble about the situation here and can secretly provide money.

I thought its related to Bellbot Rickson, but thats not it.

There were suspicions that Dutri had ties with Bellbot Rickson.

There is no doubt. They actually had a connection.

Yes?

Ive heard it from Dutri myself, so Im pretty sure.

Wait a minute. Did you hear it yourself? When? Before you kill him?

I havent killed him yet. Now, Dutri is locked up by my subordinates.

Violetta was speechless for a while.

Almost everything was sorted out, but he is still the head of the Red Society. He should have spit it out if he knew anything more.

You are strict.

Dutri took advantage of the Red Society to team up with Bellbot Rickson. He was paid and did the dirty work for him.

But Bellbot Rickson is dead. I saw in the newspaper, its said he was attacked and killed by a werewolf.

I killed him.

Yes?

I was the one who killed Bellbot Rickson.

.

It is said that he was attacked by a werewolf, but the reality is different. Bellbot Rickson secretly used the Red Society to make tests on humans.

Why did you tell me that?

When the story of the incident came out of my mouth, Violetta looked very embarrassed. It would be rather embarrassing to hear a truth that you didnt expect.

So I killed Bellbot Rickson. I gave a worthy end to a man who violated human dignity and when I searched his safe and ledger, I caught the tail of the Red Society.

So you got rid of the Red Society?

Anyway, I also have to settle here and I didnt really want to stand with them.

.

Well, I understand the surprise and youll wonder why Im saying this.

I will make sure this is a secret.

Its good that you understand quickly.

This will prevent Violetta from thinking of betraying me.

Although we had already fought together and I gave her a vision for her organization to move forward as a human being, even if she received various benefits, later she will quickly forget and might betray me.

This is a kind of intimidation.

I killed Bellbot Rickson, one of the richest people in Leathervelk. In other words, unless it was a noble, I could kill everyone else if I wanted to. This fact alone will make my presence even greater for Violetta.

You are a smart woman. You will understand what I am trying to do.

This time, we have to find the person who instigated the Red Society that attacked us.

Okay.

I will be very busy. I have to carry on the business you told me to do.

Cant you?

At my question, Violetta shook her head.

Thats a statement that hurts my self-esteem but Im sure I can take care of it.

So be it. If you cant show that level of performance, youll be in trouble. Ill hand over Dutri to you as a reward for your hard work.

Arent you still holding him?

Hes in a state of disrepair, unable to walk properly. You are free to use him to extract information or kill him.

I could hear Violetta swallowing her saliva and smiled softly

There were a lot of things that were piled up, so you can use any method. This is also my gift to you.

The reason Dutri was spared was not to extract information, but to leave him alive and leave a good impression on the other three organizations.

As they had many connections with the Red Society, they must be the ones who want to kill Dutri more than anyone else.

I will work hard. More than you would expect.

Good answer. Ill see you later.

The bodies.

In the back alleys, people dont ask the reason for death because the dead do not speak.

Yes. I know.

Violetta bowed her head politely towards me. Nominally she is an equal partner with me, but already she has sworn allegiance to me.

It wasnt a bad feeling.

* * *

Is brother done?

Yes.

Somehow, a mysterious group was going to the place where brother was. Have you met?

Instead of answering, I slowly removed the one-eyed glasses from my face and took off my coat.

Hans nodded his head knowingly.

I think youve got it all sorted out.

They even hired the Calsapa Assassins.

Those crazy.

They were newbies out to gain experience.

But isnt Calsapa still Calsapa?

So you have to move a little.

Yes?

There are people behind the scenes who ordered us to be killed. It seems that the Red Society is disappearing and a new one is coming in, which is not a small thing.

No, Im dying to check the listings at the Kunst auction house right now.

If you cant, dont.

No, I will. It is directly related to my life, and I cannot afford to waste it.

As soon as I hung the coat on the hanger, the door swung open with a loud bang. This is our secret base, where people rarely come, even in the back alleys. It was a place where ordinary guests would never come but the door was opened and she appeared.

Is it Seridan?

Five.

At my words, the little girl who had just entered the room looked at me and her eyes lit up.

It was Nari after all!

Lightly tanned brown skin and white hair tied in two comfortably. The raised eyes and corners of the mouth look full of playfulness. She was wearing loose-fitting trousers and a loosely draped shirt with a lot of oil on it.

Iron Feet Seridan is a dwarf girl who is the developer and inventor of the wire launcher I use.

Its still powerful and noisy.

Saying so, I loosened the strap that had been attached to my left arm and threw it at her. She jumped out of her place, grabbed the device, and checked its condition right away.

HmmThe tip of the launcher is worn out, and some of the cog screws are loose. Besides, I have to change the wire.

I had a lot to do.

This fitting is loose, I think it happened because one more person was added to the original weight? I told you to be careful, this is for a single person to use! Its just barely enough to raise a person with all kinds of stuff like Nari!

I used it that way because it was strong.

You dont know how delicate machines are?!

So you cant fix it?

10 minutes is enough!

When it comes to machines, shes more of an expert than anyone else. The sword sticks and saw blade boomerangs I used were all made by her. Of course, it was me who provided her ideas.

When I give her a rough idea, she gets stuck on it and invents like crazy.

Hey, assistant! Help me!

Who is your assistant?

When Seridan called, Hans shouted.

If your sister says come, you will come! Wont you come?

I got it! So get rid of that mouse tooth!

If you dont listen to me youre getting stabbed by this. Okay?

Damn it. Brother, please stop that bastard.

Its fine.

Thats what I said, but actually, I cant stop Seridan either because shes impossible to control. Im just glad that she didnt cause such a fuss with me.

Seridans riot is mainly directed at Hans, because she knows his weakness and deliberately carried something like a mouses tooth to threaten him.

Then, I will go to the workshop first! Come quickly!

Hans clenched her fists as she watched her go away like a storm.

That little bastard.

Even if she looks like that, shes older than you.

Seridan looks like a little girl because shes a dwarf, but shes actually older than Hans.

I know. Damn. Why is she only doing this to me?

Yeah.

Because shes happy, but I couldnt say that because Hans expression quickly turned gloomy.

Are there more people coming here?

By the way, Seridan is not allowed to touch gunpowder.

I know that, because I dont want to die either.

Iron Feet Seridan is a great inventor and developer, but perhaps because of her terrifying personality, she was also a time bomb. However, the problem is that shes a time bomb not a metaphorical meaning. If she has real gunpowder, she will try to make all kinds of bombs.

Do you remember when brother and I first saw that bastard?

It was an underground mine in the Kingdom of Delica. They illegally enslaved different races and forced them to mine day and night.

I do. That guy was also caught there.

It would be foolish to say that she was caught.

I think so too.

When I was using the James Moriarty identity me and Hans sneaked into a mine and found Seridan who was secretly making a bomb to blew up the tunnel.

If it exploded, we would all be dead, right?

If the tunnel collapsed 1km below the ground, even the strongest knights wouldve died.

I have to take care of that crazy bastard who tried to destroy a tunnel.

Take care.

Hans has a lot of trouble and surprisingly, only one member of our new organization {U.N. Owen} has come so far.
