The Tanaka Family Reincarnates

I’ll Acknowledge You as an Opponent [Part 2]

Woah, sure enough, he’s so lame… Emma and William, who thought so in their heart, were forced to sit down.

“I’m Wolfgang Galliano, will be teaching Monster Science for a year starting today. That said, most of you are students from last year.”

The teacher’s low voice reverberates in the large classroom.

Despite being a required course, few students can pass the test, so it’s not a rare occurrence for similar faces to line up every year.

“Well, this year is rare. We have 5 ladies in our class. It’s a tough subject, but do your best to study it.”

The teacher’s gaze went toward Emma and the ladies’ direction.

Like a frog being eyed by a snake, the twins make a weird ‘Piiii’ sound and stiffen.

Francesca remains shaking, and Marion also gulps.

“Yes, Mr. Wolfgang, I will work hard.”

Only Emma replies smilingly.

A fierce-looking, brawny uncle is also not bad. It was an ungirlish reaction because she has the nature of a miserable panther.

“Hoo… That scar, are you Lady Emma of Stuart House?”

Having seen the scar on Emma’s face, who doesn’t look any scared at all, the teacher asks. It’s a mystery as to why people in the royal capital know about Emma so well.

The students, who’re exposed to the familiar tense atmosphere ever since Wolfgang entered the classroom, are conversing with their eyes.

‘Wha… That Emma-sama is looking at Mr. Wolfgang and normally answers!?’

‘The earlier talk about Robert-sama‘s bloodline etc., how soft is her heart exactly?’

‘No, no, of course she’s scared? It’s Mr. Wolfgang, you know?’

‘That is her consideration, you know? Even if she’s scared, she still smilingly answers as to not being rude.’

‘That is the act of Emma-sama‘s kindness?’

‘That smile alone makes me feel glad I take this class.’

‘Exactly!’

It just results from her ‘Old Man Hoi Hoi’ tendency, but nobody seems to realize that.

“Okay, let’s study about slimes today. The content changes a lot from last year, so listen carefully.”

The teacher laughs meaningfully and starts the class.

‘What’s slime again?’ The students turn over their textbooks at once. Slimes who have a low appearance rate also have low recognition by the people.

The content they desperately memorized last year immediately got renewed every time a new discovery is made, so the teaching material of Monster Science changes every year.

Especially this year, there’re several newly reported ground-breaking countermeasures for not only slimes but also other monsters’, thanks to the action of three Stuart siblings who are now taking the class with a serious face on.

I feel pitiful for students who’re eager to pass this year, but it looks like this will be an interesting year.

・・・

Taking the chance while Wolfgang is drawing an illustration of slimes on the blackboard (his drawing is really good), George and William reproach Emma.

“Emma… or rather, Minato! That’s on purpose, right? You purposely made Robert mad, right?”

“Mina-nee! Your bad habit came out! You don’t have to go that far facing a kid… Even though we already told you not to cause any problem…”

“Huh? I mean, that Robert-sama? What do you think he said in the beginning? He said, ‘Even though you’re women,’ you know? I have always hated twisted male chauvinist b̲a̲s̲t̲a̲r̲d̲s̲ the most, you see.”

‘Fufufu,’ then Emma laughs softly.

The noble sons they’ve met until now in this world have only been kind to Emma. But in the royal capital, there seem to be people like Robert, who discriminate people by gender.

Emma is lenient with girls but strict with boys. Especially boys who say, ‘even though you’re a woman.’

“Emma… don’t bully him too much, okay?”

George has a bad feeling seeing the warlike Emma’s expression.

“Nee-sama? Please don’t create any uproars, okay?”

That seems impossible, though… William keeps his caution with a resigning look.

・・・

“Those over there, keep down your chit-chats. Emma Stuart! What will happen if you cut a slime?”

Wolfgang, who is done drawing a jellylike slime with chalk, chides down the murmurs and asks Emma a question as if giving a punishment.

“Yes, Mr. Wolfgang. Slashing a slime will cause the slime to split into two. The more you cut a slime, the more it multiplies.”

Emma answers the sudden question unhesitatingly.

‘That’s correct…’ At Wolfgang’s words, the sound of flipping pages stops, and voices of astonishment can be heard here and there.

Only Robert vexingly distorts his face, but Emma doesn’t know.

Melsa’s wish for a safe, peaceful school life was futile as the Emma VS Robert battle commences.

Author’s note: Francesca’s older brother… is he really there in that class?
