Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Shin Isaz, a rival?
The Principal’s Office.

The professor sitting at the chair with the number 12 written on it, stared at Jareth with narrowed eyes.

He had Bluish hair and eyes.

He stared at Jareth as if he wanted to see through his every secret.

“It’s been a while Jareth, don’t get too cocky just because you are also a grade-2 now…” (Shin Isaz)

Hearing Shin’s provoking tone, Jareth replied in a cold tone.

“Humph, you should worry about your own trashy attitude before talking…” (Jareth)

“The f*ck did you say to me!?” (Shin)

Veins appeared on Shin’s forehead showing his anger and his face turned into a creepy smile.

“I don’t repeat my words… if someone’s ears are not working properly then it’s not my problem…” (Jareth)

“You!” (Shin)

*Cough*

Seeing that the conflict was going to escalate, the principal coughed lightly and everyone fell silent instantly.

“I know you guys don’t like each other, but keep your personal matters out of this meeting…” (Nathan)

“Understood!” (Both Shin and Jareth replied in a united tone.)

Both of them stopped arguing and focused on the principal.

“Okay, it seems everyone is here, let’s start the meeting then… Professor Thomas, do tell everyone about your findings…” (Nathan)

“Understood” (Thomas)

Professor Thomas brought out a report from his space ring and started to explain his findings to everyone.

“As everyone knows, yesterday, when Principal Nathan was out of the capital city a wyvern appeared in the university…” (Thomas)

“That was not a mere coincidence, it was a properly planned attack that was conducted by the demon cult ‘False Dome’…” (Thomas)

“We have found traces of miasma that matches to the magic patterns of the members of the ‘False Dome’ cult… right now we have conclusive evidence against them…” (Thomas)

Thomas continued to explain.

“False Dome cult is a relatively new organization that seems to be fluent in summoning magic, they can summon various monsters and control them to attack human settlements…” (Thomas)

“Their objective is speculated to spread terror on the humankind and do as much destruction as possible… it seems they worship the demon ‘Azaroth’ that symbolizes greed and death…” (Thomas)

Azaroth has many believers and all of its believers think that only through destruction and death can people achieve salvation.

Their ideology is harmful to others and even to themselves. Most of those who believe in demons die due to corruption caused by miasma.

Every professor had a solemn look on their face when hearing about this report.

They all knew that if this cult has the power to sneak right into the heart of the human capital then they are definitely being backed by an extremely strong individual.

“From the looks of it… a high-grade demon seems to have been summoned, otherwise they wouldn’t have the capability to summon a wyvern so easily…” (Nathan)

“If my guess is correct, it’s at least a peak grade-2 demon… that’s going to be quite a lot of trouble…” (Nathan)

Nathan himself is a grade-1 mage, he can easily kill a grade-2 demon, and the only problem is that it’s extremely difficult to locate a demon, they are extremely good at hiding.

Demons have inherent stealth capabilities that make it difficult for others to track them properly. Moreover, if the demon had signed a contract with someone, it would make it even more difficult to track that demon.

A demon can hide in the body of the one that it has contracted with and thus it makes it really difficult to locate.

“Well, if it enters the capital city while I am still here, I can still sense it, but if I leave the city I won’t be able to sense it either…” (Nathan)

Nathan closed his eyes and spread his mana detection all over the city.

After a few seconds of looking, he sighed and said in a disappointed tone:

“It’s not in the capital city right now… it seems we would need to make the patrol routine stricter in the following days…” (Nathan)

Everyone nodded their heads at Nathan’s proposal, they all knew that keeping a close watch was important, otherwise it would put the lives of the students in grave danger.

“Indeed, this time Professor Jareth handled the situation on time and there were no casualties except for some students who fainted due to fear…” (Thomas)

“There was some damage to the buildings and the training grounds, but that has already been taken care of by the maintenance staff… the buildings have been repaired and the classes can be resumed as usual…” (Thomas)

Everyone sitting in this meeting hall is at least an early grade-2 and thus each of them knew that defeating a wyvern with one attack was a great feat, thus each of them had a basic respect for Jareth in their heart now.

They were nodding at Jareth for him handling the matter properly. Only Shin was glaring at him with bloodshot eyes. It seems he wanted to shout that:

‘Even I can do that! Why are you guys praising him so much!?’

…

“By the way, I suddenly remember, yesterday I went outside the city because there were reports that a new low-rank dungeon has been found near the city’s outskirts…” (Nathan)

“I personally went there for evaluation, it seems to be a low-rank dungeon and is composed of deep caves, the cave entrance is located just a few kilometers away from the city walls…” (Nathan)

“In my opinion that dungeon is quite suitable for training our young magicians, what do you guys say?” (Nathan)

Hearing Nathan’s question, everyone was in a dilemma.

“But principal, isn’t it a bad time to be sending our students out on such a dangerous mission when the demon cult ‘False Dome’ is still roaming freely out there…” (Thomas)

Nathan nodded his head and replied in a sharp tone:

“Well, how about I accompany the students personally then… if they really dared to come out, I will squish them like ants… hehe that would be hitting two birds with one stone…” (Nathan)

Thomas shook his head and replied in a concerned tone:

“No no, if the principal goes out of the University, then instead of attacking those few students that are in the dungeon, the cult might instead attack the university again!” (Thomas)

Other professors also nodded their heads and someone else added:

“If another attack happened so early, the reputation of the university will be dragged through the mud, it will affect our image…”

Hearing everyone’s concern Nathan nodded his head in regret.

“Indeed, I should stay here for now… let’s do this then…. We will send a capable professor with the students to protect them, no let’s send two professors instead! That will keep the students safe!” (Nathan)

Hearing Nathan’s proposal, everyone simultaneously looked at Shin and Jareth.

Shin was bewildered at this sudden change and replied hurriedly:

“No way am I going with this guy! I would rather die than travel with this stone-faced bast*rd!” (Shin)

“Tch! I don’t like being near a ‘trash can’ either… he smells like a dirty pig..” (Jareth)

Veins appeared on Shin’s face and his expression twisted in anger, his aura condensed and he said in a hoarse tone:

“Who the f*ck are you calling pig!? I am more handsome looking than a cold face statue like you!” (Shin)

“Heh, the ‘trash can’ is blabbering bulsh*t now…” (Jareth)

“You! Let’s go and duel right now! I will beat the sh*t out of you today!” (Shin)

“humph I don’t want to dirty my hands with the blood of a pig…” (Jareth)

*Cough!*

“Silence you two! I have already decided! You two are going to accompany the students! And while you are on the trip make sure you resolve all your personal enmities too!” (Nathan)

“The meeting is dismissed! Everyone should leave now!” (Nathan)

Hearing the anger-filled voice of the Principal, everyone hurriedly retreated from the principal’s office as if they were all running away.

Only Shin and Jareth stared at each other while standing outside the principal office.

“Tch! What a waste of time, I am going…” (Jareth)

“I am going too! It’s not like I prefer being here either!” (Shin)

And thus peace finally returned to the professor’s office.
