A Reincarnated Professor at the Constellation Academy

chapter 5



Opening Ceremony (1)

Time passed and the opening ceremony approached.

As students selected from all dimensions began to flock to Helios, the otherwise quiet campus began to become crowded with crowds.

‘I can’t adapt.’

Before his death, he rarely went to crowded places.

Since he had spent most of his time on the battlefield with his comrades, funerals were the only thing going to places where people gathered.

So this kind of friendly place was too far away from me.

Especially when it comes to events held in such a large hall.

“Ah. Professor Eugene. You’re here.”

Upon arriving at the hall, it was President Vincent who greeted me.

“Professor’s seat is over there.”

“Is there anything else I need to do?”

“No. When the introduction of the professor comes out, just wave your hand once.”

That’s about it.

I nodded in agreement and went to the seat Vincent had pointed out to me and sat down.

My seat was one of the four senior seats at the front of the many subjects.

The reason is that the ‘Great Mathematics’ subject I am in charge of is one of the 4 core subjects that exist in Helios.

Helios’ subjects largely consist of ‘attribute subjects’ and ‘core subjects’.

Accelerated courses refer to the majority of courses that students can take as electives.

Swordsmanship, archery, and attribute magic belong here.

And core subjects are subjects that all students must take.

According to Helios’ school rules, at least two of the core subjects must be taken, the grades are very high, and the penalty for penalty points is enormous.

Of course, because the reward for getting good grades is great, it is a subject that professors as well as students hope to take on.

‘It was a bit unexpected that mine was also a core subject.’

I don’t know what my intentions were for giving me this kind of position, let alone academic achievements.

All I know is that the will of the Council of Elders was fully reflected.

“That professor is new this time…”

“They said they were chosen by the Senate…”

“Why is such a person…”

I could hear the professors whispering here and there, but I ignored them.

Looking around, the area around the other three senior professors was crowded with people.

‘Skadi Polaris’ of Pure Magic Theory

Magic Mechanics’ ‘Roshua Ain’

‘Laplis Aquila’ of trait control science

They paused their conversation and looked at me, and I nodded my head roughly.

And then I immediately took my eyes, but the eyes of the three professors stayed on me for a long time after that.

But for a while, they naturally looked away, guided by the voices of the professors around them.

Freed from the burdensome attention, I measured the capabilities of these three professors.

‘Roughly between S-class and SS-class.’

The level of power read through magical power was unusual.

There were less than 100 S-class on Earth, where one person’s armed forces were equivalent to dozens of A-class, and SS, which was a higher level than that, had only 6 people.

In other words, it means that each of them is one of the best talents in the world.

Are they really talented people who will be in charge of core subjects?

As I was comparing myself to my level, an accidental thought crossed my mind.

‘Can I kill it?’

I closed my eyes at the thought passing by.

gone too Habits on the battlefield still remained.

The battlefield with the demons was a struggle, and among them there were hunters who took refuge in them and turned mankind into enemies.

In fact, half of the enemies I killed were human beings.

Maybe that’s why, when I met a strong-looking human, it became a habit to judge whether I could kill it.

“You have to be careful.”

This is not a battlefield.

The war on Earth is over, and now I am a professor at a human school.

The day will come when I will fight the demons again, but until then, I needed to put my temper to rest.

“Okay. Now, let’s start the 214th opening ceremony of Helios Academy.”

Applause broke out with Vincent’s declaration.

Suddenly coming to my senses, I joined the applause and looked ahead.

The inside of the hall full of students.

He stared at the thousands of people and injected magic into his eyes.

In the field of vision that began to take on a pale blue light, the appearances of the new students began to be clearly visible one by one.

From now on, it’s time to check the level of the freshmen.

“Then, from now on, I will introduce the professor. First, the core subjects…”

Vincent’s voice began calling out the professors.

When the name was called, the professor smiled and waved or bowed his head in greeting, and cheers erupted here and there every time.

‘They must have been celebrities.’

Unlike me, he won the position as a professor in a required subject based on his skills, so it might have been natural.

Well, it has nothing to do with me, so I just have to do my job.

ugh-

He spread his mana greatly along the floor.

The waves spread in a fan shape to avoid being caught by the other professors, and eventually filled the entire hall.

aka ‘Magic Pulse’.

It is a skill to find the location of an enemy by riding on the floor and spreading magic widely.

Originally, it was a technique where stealth was the lifeblood, but I intentionally raised the wave of magic to reveal some signs.

So that those with high magic power sensitivity, those with so-called ‘ssaksu’, can respond.

‘There is.’

I knew it. I could see students flinching everywhere.

There are a total of three responses to this, tilting the head, being startled, or looking around.

The first is that I felt it, but the feeling was weak, so I thought it was long, and the second was that I definitely felt it, but I didn’t know the cause.

The third is real, they are the ones who find out that this pulse was intentionally spread and seek the owner.

“That’s quite a lot.”

There were quite a few people who reacted to it, probably because they were children who were born with a star’s destiny early on.

This level of talent is an outstanding class, but there was a separate type of talent that I wanted.

“…here he is.”

Approximately 1 minute after spreading the wave.

Among the students who responded, there was a pair of pupils that were clearly looking this way.

This is the response I’ve been waiting for.

He is the one who received the message I sent.

I was ordered by Raniakea to nurture outstanding talent.

The greater the growth of the students, the higher my performance will be, so of course it is comfortable to teach those who have talent from the beginning.

There is no better way to identify them. In fact, it was a method often used when picking out elite soldiers on Earth.

‘Well, there’s no law that says you must come under me.’

I can’t be involved in the student’s decision, so it’s a prayer meta from now on.

Still, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to know the face at least.

Just in case···.

“…Lastly, this is Professor Yujin Kang, who will be in charge of Helios’ ‘Great Mathematics’ this year.”

Vincent called my name, and I stood up and bowed briefly to the audience.

A slightly awkward reaction followed, with applause but no cheers.

It must be because an unheard-of human being is sitting in the core subject professor’s seat.

I didn’t expect much, so I sat back down and turned off my nerves. I thought I would stay silent until the opening ceremony was over.

Perhaps because of my mood, it seemed that the gaze from earlier was still looking at me.

*

The opening ceremony that lasted all morning was over.

As the professors left their seats and the students returned to school one by one, a girl was sitting in a row.

Wavy blonde hair and bright blue eyes.

Each of the students around her whispered about the girl with the radiant beauty.

“Isn’t that Estelle of Altair?”

“I heard you were entering the school this time, so it was real…”

Estelle von Shearan Altair.

The one and only daughter of ‘Altayr’, one of the three most prestigious families in the long-established Constellation family.

Everyone’s attention was focused on her.

However, as if she was accustomed to such attention, Estelle was silently staring at one spot.

Right away, the place where Professor Yujin Kang was.

“What was that?”

Waves of faint but distinct feeling that echoed throughout the hall.

She couldn’t get up from her seat for a long time while thinking about the subtle yet perfect energy of magic.

“Was it a test?”

The party who spread the magical power. A professor named Yujin Kang was selecting and watching only those who responded to the wavelength.

She was one of them, and she was proud of being the only one who found Kang Yu-jin.

Because the gaze, which never stayed longer than one second, stayed on her for five seconds.

Among the busy children who were startled or looking around, that gaze clearly looked at them. Facing it, she felt a bit thrilled.

Also i’m a genius

As she was about to doze off for a while, a female knight approached her.

It was her exclusive article.

“Lady Estelle. OT is starting soon.”

“Yes. I’ll go.”

The girl called Estelle rose from her seat.

She hurriedly left the hall, not paying attention to the gazes around her.

“Hanna. Do you know anything about Professor Yujin Kang?”

“You mean the new Master Mathematics Professor?”

“yes.”

The knight who followed thought for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Well, I don’t know the name…”

“Isn’t it? I’ve never heard of it either.”

“But there is one piece of information I heard recently.”

“Information?”

Hannah nodded.

“Do you know about the recent incident in Rhodes where an upper-middle-class witchbeast went on a rampage?”

“Yeah. I heard that too.”

“There was information that it might have been Professor Yujin Kang who caught the demon.”

“·······?”

Estelle’s steps stopped abruptly.

“···alone?”

“Yeah.”

“·······.”

Upper-intermediate monsters are monsters that can be caught by five active hunters of A or higher rank.

Did you catch that by yourself? is that possible?

“Is that information real?”

“It came from the guard side, so I guess it has quite a bit of credibility.”

“I see.”

indeed. A professor with no record wanted to take on a core subject, but it was clear that there was something unknown.

“I want to know about him.”

“Are you curious?”

“Yeah. I’m curious.”

A person who showed up with nothing and flashed and took on a key subject that only the best professors could take.

She felt a deep curiosity about Kang Yoo-jin.

“Recognize me. What kind of person are you?”

“All right.”

Hannah nodded without saying anything.

Pursue the professor’s back. A normal family would be difficult, but she was different.

Estelle’s family, ‘Altaïr’, was a prestigious family with a long history of producing four constellations, and at the same time, it was also a family that also served as the chairman of the board of directors of Helios.

In other words, he was able to access the Academy’s database, the ‘Helios Archive’, and in that case, it was nothing to go after a professor.

‘What kind of person is that?’

For some reason, I was looking forward to it.

Her steps toward the classroom were excited with anticipation.
