I Became a Flashing Genius at the Magic Academy [158-362][English Translation]

Episode 300 Chapter 55: A New Professor (3)

A New Professor (3)

Students during high school were extremely simple-minded. When a young and pretty student teacher arrived, they would cheer, and if she had a good personality, she would instantly become a star at school.

Even at Stella Academy, where elite students attended, these characteristics were no different. After all, it was a place where teenage boys and girls gathered.

Unfortunately, most of the professors were at least in their 40s, so the dramatic event of having a popular professor rarely occurred.

Professors like Professor Raydin of New Moon Studies and Professor Valentine of Staff Management were quite popular due to their flashy appearances, but such cases were rare, and the students' thirst was not easily quenched.

"She's really beautiful..."

"Hey, she looks like she could be our younger sister."

"And her way of speaking."

"But she's a professor, right?"

So, what if a young and beautiful professor arrived?

"Young" wouldn't be the right word; "childish" would be more fitting. A new professor with an eerie name, "Professor Scarlett," who had a youthful appearance that didn't match her frightening name.

The sight of 200 students gathered in a large auditorium that could accommodate hundreds, looking up at a small, white-haired girl on the central podium, was slightly surreal.

"...Why is she here?"

Baek Yuseul felt a chill and cautiously moved to the back. He instinctively retreated, knowing that once their eyes met, it would be impossible to escape her sight.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing..."

When Eisel asked with concern and followed him, Baek Yuseul grabbed her arm and hid her behind him.

Eisel was destined for a special fate different from others, and given Scarlett's tendency to pursue "destined love," there was a chance she might take an interest in Eisel.

Of course, he knew well that hiding a few steps away meant nothing.

Baek Yuseul slowly searched for information on Scarlett using his bulbul glasses. There wasn't much clear information about her.

The queen of witches. As her name suggested, she was a legendary figure.

Like a "Deus Ex Machina" within the world, both readers and players could recognize her, but she didn't intervene in the main episodes.

Occasionally, when an unsolvable incident appeared in the game, special figures like Scarlett would emerge to handle it.

For example, suppose an incident like "facing an absolute dark mage from the first year" occurred.

In such a case, the episode would be completely ruined, and a typical game would declare a game over and roll back to a bad ending save data. But in Aether World Online, a Deus Ex Machina would appear.

The story would be made to return to normal by saying something like "The queen of witches begins to chase the absolute dark mage."

Even though countless bad ending scenarios existed, no one knew why a Deus Ex Machina would intervene.

However, the fact that she had descended into reality and appeared in the crucial role of "professor" at Stella Academy, where the main episodes unfold, meant...

"Is that so...?"

It was only then that Baek Yuseul fully realized his mistake. He was aware of the numerous incidents caused by changing the future countless times, but he didn't know to what extent.
