But, what’s with students having butlers?
It feels a bit too overprotective considering that they set out to learn to be independent. Well, this world can be quite dangerous so I guess the parents would be worried.
There were mixed reviews about this but the academy decided to tolerate it.
Well, leaving that aside.
These students… did they just say ‘couldn’t prepare a better ship than this’?!
And to also insult the academy-these kids are very cocky.
That’s not something you should be saying considering that Tempest is assisting the three academies from its taxes.
I got a bit irritated and shifted my gaze towards them.
As I did that, I noticed that the other students were also not taking it well.
I mean, of course they would not.
It’s the worst pattern-to be complaining even though you’re studying for free.
Even if these kids were nobles, inside the academy, there is an ironclad rule saying that they were all equal. Although we are tolerating them bringing along guards and butlers, we are definitely not going to allow partiality towards them…
It looks like their sense of being the chosen people isn’t fading…
“Oi, you guys, that’s enough! ‘Being poor or rich is completely dependent on the family and it does not affect the student’s skill’-that’s the common ideal between all the academies, you know?!”
A red-haired youngster couldn’t tolerate it anymore and raised his voice. In response to that, the young man called Julius made a scorning expression and said over his shoulder,
“Hah, to think the likes of you stinking beasts would come directly talking to me. What blasphemy.”
“Oi?!”
Reacting to Julius, a few other students stood up.
They seem to be students of Tempest as they had prominent characteristics like monsters or demi-humans.
It is only natural for them to be angry but… hmm, what should I do?
It’s sad seeing people like these exist even 8 years after completing the academies. These things are not reported to me but it seems like there’s a need to conduct an internal audit.
“You guys, what are you doing?! Just sit down already!”
Just when I started pondering on what to do about the situation, a bald man came in and shouted.
He seems like one of the teachers and couldn’t overlook this commotion.
I thought the teacher at least wouldn’t discriminate but…
“Julius-sama, I will punish these students so please spare them. And also, I negotiated with the crew to move you to the high class section as there’s a space empty because someone cancelled. Please move there.”
And like that, he started being toady to Julius.
And the moment that teacher came in, the Tempest students looked down as if they had given up.
Seems like they gave up early thinking that they can’t win against a teacher.
“What is with that guy…”
I ended up muttering out.
“Oho, that’s thoughtful of you. However, I can’t really expect much if someone cancelled on it.”
