The Human Saint is Bored, so I was Summoned to Another World

Her Holiness' Blues (Part 1)

"Good morning, sir!"

"Ah, good morning!"

"Hello, sir!"

"What's up, y'all?"

It's been a long time since I last saw this familiar scenery. A long corridor filled with students in their white uniforms, empty rooms with chairs and bags scattered everywhere, and my tired co-workers gathering around to take a well-deserved break in the faculty room...

I knew this is just another dream, but it brought out nostalgic memories...

I took a walk around my old school, which was quite small compared to a normal one back in my country. Within a few minutes, I could go on a round trip several times in this place. Yep, this school was tiny, where we even had to give our workspaces to accommodate more students coming in from other places...

However, this one is full of memories—good and bad—for me...

"..."

Hmm...I don't know. Maybe I got influenced by what that black-haired Saint, Natasha, told me about my 'true power'. That could be the reason I'm seeing this scenario once again. She said I could use words to influence people, but I doubt that would be the case...

I mean, all of my co-workers are teachers too, don't they have the same power as me?

"!!!"

I was surprised when someone bumped into me. This should've been a dream, but I felt like this was all real...Such a vivid dream I'm currently having, huh?

"Oh, sorry for hitting you, sir!" it was a girl who hit me. Perhaps not looking on the way she's going, I didn't know. But what I remember was, this student of mine was a good friend to me back when I was still on Earth.

"Alexa? You alright, dude?" I asked her. Pardon my speech; it's just the way I talk to them.

"Ah yes sir, I'm fine."

"Watch out where you go, then. It'll be a pain in the ass if you hit your head on a pole and you became amnesiac."

"Come on sir, you know it won't be the case." Alexa replied, laughing, "I have a thick skull, it will not be a problem."

"I agree." I sarcastically commented, "That's why you and your classmates are real assholes...you have thick skulls!"

"Of course, sir! We're your students and we're proud of it, you know!" Alexa playfully winked at me.

As a teacher, hearing those words from my students—no matter how 'demonic' they seemed to be—warms my heart. Heck, it's the reason I got into this low-paying, highly stressful job in the first place!

"Take care on your way around, Alexa!" I gently patted her head.

Alexa waved her hand at me as she walked away, "I will, sir...thanks!"

A power using words to influence people, huh? I knew it's possible, but I'm not the only one who wields it, you know?

"..."

Man, I miss my students. I wonder how are they doing now...

To be honest, I got an uncomfortable feeling as I head to Her Holiness' room. For one, it wasn't easy to talk about a failed romance with someone who's been rejected by the man she loved and tried to harm herself because of it.
