Broken Possessors of Infinite Regression Academy

Chapter 121

121 – Academy Transfer – 2

After the lecture, I headed to the director’s office with Leona, who had received the same text message. As soon as Leona met me, she teased me, saying that there are so many women around her that it’s hard to be alone with them.

“Then you want to be alone with me?”

“Huh? “Huh?”

So, when I teased him like he used to, he immediately shut up.

When I think about it, I stopped making jokes like that at some point. I’m not sure when that started.

“No matter what, you robbed the imperial palace treasury... ....”

“You said you would give us gifts and return the rest, so you must have gotten something back. Are you sure you wrote it all?”

After being hit by the counter and sinking, Leona chose the next topic of conversation about the gift the chairman said he would give her. And when she heard how to prepare a gift, she was dumbfounded.

She didn’t bother to mention that the great wizards had stolen the treasure that might have been returned.

The reason the archmages did such a thing was because of the black-haired woman right next to them, and the moment they brought up the story that the woman was in fact the devil, there would be great cognitive dissonance.

“How did you hear that news? Amazing.”

“You know how much the wizards respect me, right? “The Grand Wizard is no exception.”

“...... Now you just talk naturally? Well, I guess so. Well done, cult bastards. I haven’t liked them for a long time. I really screwed up. He died well. “It would be better to suffer as long as possible and then die.”

“... ....”

I felt like I was experiencing cognitive dissonance as I watched Leona blurt out things she would never have said if she were the hero of the original. Is that my fault too?

“By the way, what about the Holy Sword? “Still no response?”

“Yes. “I don’t know why, but it’s the same.”

Yesterday, I asked Leona to lend me her holy sword so I could talk to her goddess, but she still hasn’t responded.

Probably on purpose. Otherwise, there’s no way it could be quiet for this long.

“Chairman? “We are here.”

“Please come in. “It’s open.”

When I arrived at the chairman’s office and knocked on the door, a voice told me that it was open and that it was good. It was my first visit since the chairman was seriously injured.

I opened the door and went in. The chairman stood up from his chair and welcomed us. With just that brief movement, the large breasts wrapped in the sleeveless vest made their presence felt very noticeable.

“Nice to meet you. Student Mira Crait, and student Leona Brunhild.”

“Hello, Chairman.”

“Are you feeling okay?”

“As you can see, it’s fine. The person who created the healing magic himself treated it, so what could be bad? Rather, it is a question I should ask you.”

“We are fine too. It’s been a while now. “I wasn’t hurt, but even if I was, I would have recovered a long time ago.”@@@@

After hearing that she wasn’t hurt, Leona looked at me with a face that had a lot to say. She slightly avoided that gaze.

“I guess so. “I wondered what the power that healed me was, but I had no idea it was magic.”

At that time, the chairman gently touched her arm, which had been completely cut off.

“There are a lot of things I want to ask, but the fact that you didn’t tell me first means that you want to hold back for whatever reason. “I won’t ask you why you learned about such magic, so rest assured.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

“Greetings have been made. “Isn’t this something we should do as a recipient of grace?”

As the chairman said that, he bent down and took out two richly decorated boxes from under the desk. It was so extravagant that it seemed like a lot of items from the treasure chest had been used just to decorate it.

“Ah, yes. “I will do that.”

At the Chairman’s words, Leona first turned to her mysterious face. When only the two of them were left, the director used soundproofing magic. A barrier made of blue magic circles surrounded the entire room.

“Basic soundproofing has already been done, but soundproofing magic seems like a pretty important story, right?”

“It could be so. Otherwise, it might be a bit of a tiring story. “Is that okay?”

“It’s okay.”

“Thank you.”

The chairman smiled softly, as his tone changed from his usual authoritative tone to one that was quite soft. Then, she slightly leaned her butt on the desk and after a long pause, she spoke.

“...... Ever since I escaped to the human world 130 years ago, I have lived with only one desire for revenge on Mahbat. “Both as the chairman of the board named Erestica, and as a dragon named Meligor.”

Even though he wasn’t his biological child, he probably deserved it since the person who made him feel emotions for the first time was eaten alive.

“But you know. After burying my child in my heart and putting an end to the bad past, I look back...... There was no longer any reason to live. “I have a lifetime left, and I have no motivation left to continue that long life.”

“You really want to die-“

“It’s not like I didn’t think about it very much.”

The chairman’s eyes were filled with sadness.

“If it were me before, it would have been okay. Before I met my child, I was a lazy dragon who literally did nothing. But I am not who I am now. I’ve come too far to live in dragon time again. We have become so accustomed to living in human time. In just 130 years. “Maybe it’s because I’ve lived such a hectic life.”

A mixed voice rang out.

“But some time ago, I realized that my thinking was wrong. “There was one thing left nearby that could be the purpose of life.”

The golden vertical pupils were fixed on me. Compared to usual, his eyes were much softer.

“Do you know that you look somewhat like my child?”

“Me? But I’m a man-“

“I’m not talking about appearance. “I’m talking about the atmosphere you feel.”

“Even if you say it’s an atmosphere you can feel...... I do not know. “When you explained it to me before, I think you said that your daughter has a very lively personality.”

“There is no need to be similar in every way. Do you remember back then? “When you came back with your finger torn off.”

“Yes. “I remember it.”

If the chairman came back with his finger torn off, it would mean that he bit off his finger himself, pretending to have been harmed by that bastard, in order to create a justification for killing Alexander.

As soon as she saw that, she freaked out in a completely different way than usual, and she hugged me and tried to comfort me. Is that why?

“My child also suffered similar injuries. She came back injured in exactly the same spot while hunting a monster. “She told me not to worry because she was fine.”

The chairman added that he then kidnapped a priest, had her treat the child’s hand, and released him with appropriate treasure.

“From then on, I felt an unknown emotion toward Student Mira. Maybe it was maternal love, or maybe it was some other positive emotion. One thing is for sure, I am confident that I can trust the child. And he was confident that a child would be able to fill the empty space in his heart.”

I thought I knew roughly what he was trying to say. However, it was difficult to accept it right away or reject it.

“Of course, I am not comparing Mira with my child. My child is just my child, and he is already buried in his heart. I’m not trying to use Mira as a replacement for my child. I’m truly sorry if you ever felt that way. But I want you to know that I never, ever intended to do that.......”

As for what my expression looked like, explanations that I didn’t specifically ask for came out randomly. Even at a glance, you could tell that it was urgent.

“I haven’t said anything yet. “Please calm down a little.”

“Uh, huh? Yeah, that’s right. I need to calm down. I understand. “I’m sorry for showing you like this.”

The chairman took a few deep breaths and approached me with faint eyes.

“So, Student Mira. I know it’s a shameless request, but.......”

Fingers that were at least one joint larger than mine gently wrapped around my hand.

“Won’t you be the reason for my life?”
