Chapter 818 – 818. Magic School Strauss (6)
(Hey, isn’t that woman a joke? It looks like she’s trying to get some money using her work as an excuse?)
“…”
I kind of expected it.
There’s no way that Hanelone, who is obsessed with self-interest and power, just skips over her current job.
Claudia continued to report in real time what was going on inside her.
(Wow~ You have a good mouth. You don’t even talk about money out of your mouth, and you’re making the other person keep talking about money.)
(As if he didn’t care about money.)
(How to say… Rather, it became an atmosphere where people over there were anxious to bribe?)
I roughly figured out the situation through Claudia.
Now, inside the lab, I could see that there were stories going on that I shouldn’t have heard.
And on the other hand, I had no choice but to stick out my tongue at Hanelone’s meticulousness.
‘Wow, have you been working on a build-up since the morning to create a situation like that? No… Did you have any plans during the vacation?’
[Maybe it was planned from last year.]
Hanelone, like me, would have been in the student council in her freshman year, and she would have been naturally given the position of auditor.
She likely had this idea when she was given an auditing position and looked at her accounting.
And she must have put it into action now.
‘She’s a really great woman.’
Hanelone was smart, and even had a knack for controlling people.
In addition, her drive to satisfy her self-interest by using such talent well made me admire.
However, one unexpected misfortune befell her, Nellone.
That’s right…
‘Even a fox would be difficult to do in front of a nine-tailed fox.’
It was the fact that I was acting as her sidekick to keep an eye on her.
Perhaps Hanelone is thinking that I am on her side now.
No, even if she’s not on the same side, she’ll at least think she’s a being she can control.
While laughing inwardly, Claudia broke through the wall and gave her final report.
(Hey, I think we agreed to part of the budget. I didn’t say that outright. The club manager said he would forcefully give it to me.)
After Claudia spoke, the director of the Wind Dynamics Research Society opened the door and came out.
He was calm when he entered, but had a haggard appearance when he came out.
“That… I’m done with the interview. You’re coming in…”
“Yes.”
I went into her lab to check on her Hanelone’s her condition.
Hanelone, who had the same smile as before, looked at me and said shamelessly.
“We decided to put the issue of the Wind Dynamics Research Society on hold. There was a situation within the club, and I decided to check later. Now call the next person.”
“All right.”
I nodded and called the next student waiting outside the lab.
That’s how Hanelone started the interview with the next manager…
“I had a dinner on a club budget… Is it outrageously expensive?”
In the same way as before, he began to drive the manager.
“That, that’s because all the members gathered…”
“All members? Where did you eat?”
“I ate out!”
“Are you going out? Most of the members I remember don’t have a store where they can go out, right? At least there was one person. The name… It was a girl’s name…”
“That, that…”
“No way… Doesn’t that mean you and the member had dinner alone?”
“Oh, no… That is…”
At first glance, it seemed like he had spent his budget on dating women.
“That… That… That that…”
Clearly, that club manager was more senior than Hanelone.
But looking at the scene right now, it wasn’t just that the seniors and juniors were reversed, it was like watching a professor and a student.
‘What… Well, you know, she’s the talent to become a professor in the future.’
Hanelone was one of the current sophomores with the greatest potential to become a professor.
If Hanelone becomes her professor, she and her students under her charge will have a pretty rough school life.
I spoke by correspondence, thinking of the students who would enter the school in the future.
‘You guys who don’t even know my face, thank me. I will educate you so that such a future does not come. Armonia.’
[Yes.]
I smiled inwardly and told Armonia.
‘Make me a wiretapping device.’
The smart hair you’re so proud of… Don’t break it down with modern culture.
..
..
Most of the interviews with club heads went similarly.
Hanelone has cornered her managers, cavorting her over her budget.
And when I moved away for a while, the two exchanged illicit deals.
Most of them said that they would secretly hand it over when they received the budget.
Well, not all managers were caught that way.
On the contrary, there were cases where the interview itself was over in an instant because he was so innocent.
‘I don’t think there’s any need to forcefully hold a person like that.’
Hanelone kept her line and took her advantage.
It would be a problem if she got caught, but she couldn’t have done this because Hanelone, who has an extraordinary head, was prepared to be caught.
You have the confidence not to get caught, or you will have a safety device in place to get out of trouble.
After the last interview was over and we waited outside the door, the door opened and Hanelone and the manager who had the last interview came out together.
“Well, then… I look forward to.”
“Yes, be careful.”
The last interviewer let out a big sigh and left with heavy steps.
Soon, the sunlight pouring into the school disappeared, and the light from the mana stones was shining in places in the hallway, creating a gloomy atmosphere.
Hanelone spoke to me with a rather refreshing expression, even though we had an interview until late at night.
“Great job!”
“Thank you for your effort.”
“If I had known it would take this long, I would have divided the interview into three days.”
Hanelone kept a smile on her face as she made her way to her student council room.
No, it wasn’t that she didn’t, it was that she had a strong feeling that she didn’t.
Now that she can put the budget of her countless clubs into her own hands, she can’t help but laugh…
But she suddenly stared at me with a hardened smile and said something meaningful.
“How do you feel about your first job after joining the student council?”
There was definitely a smile on her face, but there was a bloody intimidation in her eyes.
I had a strong feeling that he would decide my disposition according to my answer.
‘It looks like he’s worried that I might have strange suspicions.’
From Hanelone’s point of view, I was a newcomer and a small variable.
I opened my mouth with a kind smile.
“Your senior is doing accounting work so passionately, I was sorry that there was nothing I could do to help.”
“…”
“If there is anything you want me to do, don’t be shy and tell me.”
Hanelone blinked at my words and stared blankly.
And then…
“Whoop whoop! It’s the first day today! Still, it’s nice to see you trying so hard!”
Hanelone relaxed her and smiled as she accompanied me to her student council room.
He seemed to think I had no idea of his plans.
In fact, not knowing should be normal.
I just joined yesterday, and my first job was all about watching from the sidelines.
Feeling strange is itself a strange thing.
She arrived at the student council room with such a friendly atmosphere.
But at the entrance to the student council room, Edgar was standing with his back leaning against the wall.
Like…
“… Are you here now?”
She said as if she was waiting for us.
Hanelo, who was walking side by side with me, hopped up and Ed stood next to her and started acting cute to her.
“Oh? Senior. What are you doing here? Could it be that there is something left to take care of at such a late hour?”
“… I waited because you seemed too late.”
Edgar smiled at Hanelone’s cuteness.
But that smile didn’t last long.
Edgar glanced at me with a displeased expression, and she glared at me and asked Hanelone quietly.
“Why are you so late?”
“Ah~ the interview took longer than expected.”
“Have you been interviewing for this long? With that guy… ?”
“Ah, I, who is in charge of accounting, can’t just skip the budget work~. And because her juniors were so good at it, it ended quickly.”
Despite Hanelone’s words, Edgar continued to stare at me with an expression of disbelief.
“… It was really just an interview, right?”
“Sure!”
After Hanelone got a rough idea of her mood, she greeted me with a grin.
“You have worked really hard since this morning! See you in the student council room tomorrow after school.”
“All right. Senior.”
“Okay, go in carefully.”
“Yes, the seniors also worked hard.”
After saying hello politely, I started walking.
And as I walked, I focused all my senses on the auditory cues and listened to the sounds behind me.
“Senior, is anyone in the student council room?”
“No, everyone finished work and went back to the dormitories.”
“Then… Do you want to talk alone in the student council room for a moment?”
“Joe, good!”
The two said that and went into the student council room.
After confirming that the two entered the student council room…
‘I’m bored, but it turned out well.’
He immediately rushed to the club room of the Lightning Magic Research Club.
Fortunately, the student council room and the club room were in the same building, so I was able to arrive quickly.
And after entering the club room using the key you brought, lock the door…
“Whoa, long time no see.”
I immediately sat down on the chair and cast [Ghost Hour].
When I came out of the body in a spirit state, Claudia, who was next to me, looked at me with her curious eyes in surprise.
(I’ve been curious about it before, where did you learn that ability? It’s amazing every time I see it.)
(Haha, it’s a secret.)
I laughed awkwardly and avoided answering, then headed to the student council room and spoke to Claudia.
(Please wait here. I will be back soon. If you have any problems with my body, please come to the student council room and call me.)
(Guryah~)
After Claudia answered like that, she looked at my body as if she were dead.
I left Claudia behind and flew to the student council room.
If the time I ran to the Dengeki Magic Research Club was about 3 minutes, the time I flew to the Student Council was only about 5 seconds at most.
It was the same building, and it was able to pass through the wall in a ghost state, so I was able to get to it at once.
When I arrived, I could hear the two of them conversing in the dark student council room.
“Senior, are you preparing for the graduation exam?”
“Of course. Who am I?”
The two of them were chatting while creating a moody atmosphere with only one mana stone turned on.
Edgar, who had been exchanging stories with the grinning Hanelone, suddenly grabbed Hanelone’s hand.
There was no problem up to that point.
But then Edgar took Hanelone’s hand and slowly began to move her face to hers.
It looked like he was about to kiss you.
‘Ah, could it be that they’re already in a relationship?’
It was the moment when he was about to be disappointed when he saw Hanelone and Edgar like that.
But…
“Haha, senior… This is the student council room.”
Hanelone smiled and hurriedly withdrew her hand.
In response to Hanelone’s reaction, Edgar frowned and replied.
“How is the student council room? I’m the vice president, and this student council room is like a place I manage.”
“We are still students. I want to focus on my studies until graduation.”
I could listen to Hanelone and hope for her.
‘Oh! Then you haven’t even kissed until now!?’
I naturally assumed that Hanelone and Edgar were mixed flesh.
‘If a man the size of Edgar had put up an iron wall like that… Could it be that he lived a surprisingly prudent life?’
Schrödinger’s Maiden.
First of all, I came to the conclusion that Hanelone could be a virgin or a non-virgin based on my standards.
Hehe, good. Keep defending yourself like that!’
The two started arguing without knowing I was laughing next to them.
“You know that! That Stra encourages dating of the opposite sex!”
“Still… I want to focus on my studies until I graduate. It’s not long before you graduate too. You have to focus.”
At Hanelone’s excuse, Edgar frowned sternly and lowered her voice.
“You can’t… Aren’t you obsessed with the freshmen who came this time?”
Edgar’s words were partly true.
Hanelone was currently obsessed with Louise.
And for me too… It was stuck in a different way.
But Hanelone, who heard Edgar’s words, was not taken aback…
“Senior! Could it be that you thought of me as such a woman!”
On the contrary, he started to get angry.
“Do I look like a slut to the point of feeling that way towards the juniors who joined yesterday!? Disappointing!”
Edgar, rather embarrassed by Nelone’s wrath as her daughter, began to placate her.
I laughed out loud when I saw the two of them.
But Edgar’s hurried excuse erased my laughter.
“Mi, sorry! I didn’t mean that! Oh, I was just worried that the idiot next to you might have done something strange to you.”
