The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide - Chapter 100

Before the Student Council President Election (1)

The academic staff gathered in Nail Hall, the largest of the three buildings that make up the student union.

It was a fairly large disciplinary committee.

According to academic regulations, it was a committee that Principal Obel Forcius had to attend, but he had no choice but to not participate as his schedule was not free due to the many incidents that occurred around the faculty building.

The main agenda of this disciplinary committee, chaired by Vice Principal Rachel as an agent for Principal Obel, is to review the disciplinary plan for Lucy Mayril, who damaged property in Ofilis Building and caused many students to evacuate.

“The facts of the case have been completely settled.”

Flavin, a senior professor of magic science who was serving as the highest official in the faculty building at the time of the incident, completed the entire report.

Vice Principal Rachel was sitting at the head of the conference room, listening to Flavin’s report.

Wearing an alchemist’s robe with many ornate gold frames, she is an elderly woman who is about to turn 60 tomorrow.

Although he had more experience and served longer than Principal Obel, he was sitting in the vice principal position because his academic achievements and magical skills were inferior to Obel. Of course, I had no complaints about it. This is because she is a thorough meritocratic.

It was natural for a capable person to have a higher position. At least that was the case within her values.

“Hmm…”

And the student named Lucy Mayril, who was sitting in the disciplinary student seat and staring blankly into space, was also a sad person who was second to none in terms of ability.

He is not only the valedictorian of his undergraduate school, but it would be fair to call him the valedictorian of the entire school. Even quite a few professors had to put up with her powerful magic skills.

The fact that Lucy Mayril, Sylvania’s calling card and pride, was summoned to sit before the disciplinary committee was not very pleasing to the Sylvania academic staff.

Lucy Mayril’s presence served as a strong backing when Sylvania competed with external organizations or other educational institutions.

No matter which institution’s representative trainee is brought in, there is no one who can compare to Lucy Mayril.

In a way, student Lucy Mayril is a key pillar supporting Sylvania’s external pride.

‘Expulsion… it’s right not to even think about it…’

If you think about it carefully, it is not a crime that warrants expulsion.

When Lucy heard the news of Ed Ross-Taylor’s death, she lost her temper and ran to the Ofilis Building to personally try to sanction Tanya, who was accused of arranging the murder.

In the process, numerous maids and students were threatened, and the second-year head of the combat department and the head of the pension department were even injured.

What about property damage?

Compared to the destruction of Ofilis Hall by students in low grades, the damage was less than expected, but that does not mean there was no damage at all.

The exterior wall of the third-floor apartment where Tanya’s room is located, and the exterior wall of the hallway on the other side, a pillar at the entrance to the Ofilis Building, a bit of the marble floor from the rose garden, and a pavilion.

Strictly speaking, the outer wall in the hallway was destroyed by Ziggs, and the entrance pillar was destroyed by Clevius to stop Lucy, but rather than distinguishing in such detail, it was judged in general terms. In the grand scheme of things, it is true that it was destroyed because Lucy attacked it.

Considering the destroyed facilities, it will likely take about a week to recover. The cost will not be small either. Of course, compared to the money that went into it when it was half destroyed, it is a drop in the bucket.

Still, if we were to point out an extenuating factor, it would be that there were no casualties.

According to testimony from the scene, it seems that he went on a rampage, taking various actions to prevent as many injuries as possible, and acted as if he was going to eat Tanya, but it is completely unclear whether he would have killed her if they had actually met.

It seems like there was still some sense of reason left in the matter, so it might have been surprisingly resolved through conversation.

Also, instead of running away as soon as the incident was over, he sat quietly at the scene and waited for the academic staff to investigate. This was almost like embroidery.

Also, the fact that the only injured people, Clevius and Elvira, wrote a petition also played a role. It was a reaction that seemed to understand her emotionally unstable situation.

As a result, taking into account various reasons, we have reached a situation where we can end the situation with a light disciplinary action if we decide to do so. That is, if only the last remaining reason for sentence reduction can be properly verified.

That is deep reflection on mistakes.

“…”

Rachel narrowed her eyes and looked at the disciplinary student seat.

I sighed deeply when I saw Lucy with half-moon eyes open blankly, staring into space and occasionally twitching her eyes.

Even as a vice principal, it hurts to see the head of the school look so dignified and powerless. Still, it is fortunate that his talent is clear.

Anyway, there is one last reason left for the sentence to be commuted… I can’t really see him looking sorry. There is no life in his blank eyes, so I can’t tell what his true feelings are.

This disciplinary committee meeting had a very headache-inducing agenda. This is because Sylvania is reluctant to give her really strong disciplinary action, such as expulsion or suspension.

As Sylvania, who has sold Lucy’s name countless times to the outside world, it is natural to want to avoid doing anything that would tarnish her pride as much as possible.

It’s impossible to feel disgusted by Lucy’s appearance, but in reality, Sylvania is using Lucy Mayril’s name to the extreme.

Even the treatment of Lucy, who enjoys bachelor life as she pleases, is not all free.

“Student Lucy.”

“yes.”

The answer is so dull that even the listener feels discouraged.

“This incident cannot be overlooked lightly. The Ofilis Building is one of the core facilities of Sylvania. I don’t think our committee can easily overlook the destruction of this facility and the insecurity caused to students using it.”

“…I am truly reflecting.”

“… is that so.”

Lucy spoke with confidence, as if she was taking Rachel’s thoughts into consideration and whether this was the answer she wanted.

Even such a clean demeanor was a bit unnerving, but Rachel couldn’t say anything about it.

“Still, considering the seriousness of the matter, it seems reasonable that appropriate disciplinary action should be given to Lucy. I…” Rachel

felt uncomfortable with Lucy’s indifferent attitude, but it was not a moderately severe punishment, but it could not be said to be light. The sentence was carefully determined and sentenced.

“Disqualification from receiving scholarships for this semester, disqualification from moving into Ofilis Building, suspension from school for 10 days, deprivation of access to student welfare facilities for 70 days, and deterioration of practical evaluation scores by two levels.”

These are a bit heavy to be considered light disciplinary measures, but quite light to be considered severe disciplinary measures.

Rachel talked about it in detail, but most of it wasn’t something Lucy would be interested in.

Disqualification from receiving scholarships is meaningless. This is because she has ‘prepaid’ tuition for all semesters until graduation as an agent for the Glokt Scholarship Foundation. Since it was done according to the will of Archmage Glokt, this was not a scholarship but a private use of Glokt’s personal funds.

Even suspension or differential evaluation of grades is difficult to have much meaning. He is not a great person who deserves to miss out on a senior position just because he doesn’t go to class or gets a lower grade. This is because Lucy is the overwhelmingly senior among senior officers, so she has a huge gap even with Ziggs, the deputy head of the Ministry of Magic.

Student welfare facilities… are not used at all.

“all right.”

In the end, the punishment that has special meaning to her is that she will not be able to move into the Ofilis building for one semester.

“Then, Miss Lucy Mayril, please write in this signature box that she has no complaints about the disciplinary action decided…”

“Wait a minute…!!”

At that time, someone opened the door of the nail salon and came in shouting.

Who is the person who rudely kicks in the door at such an important meeting where high-ranking faculty members are sitting together? Is there a lack of etiquette education?

When Rachel looked at the door with a dumbfounded expression, standing there was the head of a group known for being the most polite in Sylvania.

Jean Belle Maia, the new maid at Ofilis Hall.

He was the youngest among the senior staff who held real power in Sylvania.

A maid uniform skirt wrapped around the short hair like a colorful flower blooming. And even the Katyusha decorated with red roses were all neatly angled.

“My name is Bel Maia, who manages the Ofilis Hall. I wanted to appear as a witness, but I could not arrive on time due to the schedule for the restoration of the Ofilis Hall. I would like to offer my sincerest apology.”

Belle Maia bowed her head gracefully, then stood up and quietly closed her eyes, looking gentle.

However, for some reason, it seems like he is angry that the blade has sharpened. It feels like cross veins are sticking out on my temples.

The first to react to the sight was Lucy Mayril.

“Hehe hehe…”

Lucy, who had been sitting quietly with a grumpy expression on her face throughout the disciplinary committee, finally responded. Rachel nodded with an interesting expression.

“What’s going on for a senior employee to come to a place like this?”

“It’s rude to say this, but please reconsider the disciplinary action against Lady Lucy.”

“what?”

Lucy was already convinced by this point. Bel Maia is clearly very angry.

Well, it’s worth it. They are the maids of the Ofilis Building who have always looked after Lucy, but they suddenly locked her in a time prison and ruined her well-maintained rose garden…

“I am the maid who has been serving Lucy since she was a first-year freshman. . I can say that I know Lady Lucy best.”

“That’s true, but…”

“I don’t believe that Lady Lucy will truly reflect on this kind of disciplinary action. I recommend amending the disciplinary action… as follows.”

Then, after smiling gracefully, the disciplinary plan proposed by Belle Maia was unconventional.

The idea is to delete all useless disciplinary measures and replace them with 30 days of probation.

“30 days of probation… It’s probably not an issue that can be handled with this much disciplinary action…”

Probation is a lighter punishment than suspension. They added various disciplinary measures and suspended him for an additional 10 days… Does it make sense to dismiss all of this with probation?

Even if there are many extenuating circumstances and the damage is small compared to the scale, isn’t this a bit much?

However, as soon as Lucy heard this proposal, her complexion began to turn pale.

The reason came from Belle’s mouth.

“Expulsing Lady Lucy from Ofilis Building is not a punishment but a reward, Vice Principal. If you really want Lucy to reflect sincerely, it is right to leave her under the supervision of the Ofilis Building maids.”

Then Bell strode over, looked at the disciplinary resolution, and shook his head.

“And rather than suspension, probation, which minimizes entry outside the dormitory, is a more appropriate punishment for Lady Lucy. You do not have to worry too much about the implementation of the punishment. Our Ofilis Hall maids will do their best to be on duty. “We will closely monitor you 24 hours a day…! We will show you a clear and clean process to prevent you from going out at all.”

“Wait a minute no! I just signed a disciplinary form! Give me the paper! Suspension me! Suspension me!”

Lucy, who had been maintaining a grumpy expression, suddenly stood up and waved her arms. The person who is sweating coldly and their eyes are rolling makes you wonder if it is really the same person.

Rachel reacted in surprise to such a dramatic change.

“Well… Then… I received the opinion of the head maid and decided to put her on probation for 30 days…”

Anyway, from the bachelor’s point of view, he wanted to impose as light a punishment on Lucy as possible.

“Ah… no…! I’m sorry! I’m truly reflecting! That’s all… Absolutely not…!

” “Now, Miss Lucy, please sign here.”

I looked at Belle’s hand, which grinned, and I saw that she was holding a document in which all important information had already been scribbled with a quill pen and the disciplinary information column had been violently modified to read 30 days of probation.

Just like that, Belle held Lucy’s wrist and signed the document with a quill pen. Even if she had been forced to sign, Belle had nothing to say. After signing the document, Belle

held Lucy in her arms. Anyway, Lucy had the quill pen. Because it was light, it didn’t feel particularly heavy.

Belle smiled with satisfaction and spoke to Rachel in a refreshing voice.

“Thank you for reflecting my opinion. Then, starting today, we will immediately implement probation. I apologize for disturbing the gathering of so many precious people in this way. “Okay then.”

“No!” No way! Please reconsider one more time…! Even if I was locked up for just a week, I couldn’t breathe… Is it even possible to say that I’m on probation for a month…?!”

With that, Belle held Lucy in her arms and trudged toward the exit of the conference hall.

“Gyaaaaaaa!!”

–

Lucy’s screams cut off as the heavy conference room door slammed shut.

Unless she uses magic, Lucy’s strength is no different from that of an ordinary girl. And Lucy doesn’t necessarily use magic against the maids.

As a result , The sight of Lucy being dragged away was like that of a sacrificial lamb disappearing beyond the gates of hell, so everyone had no choice but to remain silent for a while.

“….”

“Then, shall we move on to the next item?”

Belle snatched Lucy away. Rachel trembled for a moment because she felt a strange charm in her appearance. “Then, the

agenda is for the student council president election scheduled for next week

.

”

Two days have passed since I smoked it.

After taking care of most of the events of the day, I returned to the cave in the northern cliff area, roughly brought some daily necessities, and began living a secluded life. I had no choice but to go to

the hut in the middle of the northern forest or the library on the outskirts of the living quarters. It felt like I had found another hideout.

Of course, compared to those hideouts, the living environment is not very good. Still, as it is a place with few people in the northernmost part of Aken Island, there is no better place to live a secluded life.

Climb down the cliff and climb to the rock. It is a natural cave that can only be seen once you land on the ground and then go straight inside. It was a remote place that was strangely difficult to search unless you knew in advance and came here. A rather tasty stew

was bubbling on the bonfire set up near the cave exit

. After finishing the cooking process and checking the seasoning for the last time, Yenika put the lid on the pot. Now all she had to do was boil it a little more and put it in a bowl to eat.

“Lucy will have a hard time too. If he can’t go outside, he’ll get sick and die.” ”

Yeah. Still, as Ed said, I guess he didn’t say anything else at the disciplinary committee and kept his mouth shut as much as possible. I don’t know how that was received by the disciplinary committee, but first…” ”

The academic department probably didn’t want to give Lucy a big disciplinary action.”

Compared to the impact Lucy caused by causing trouble, the scale of the damage itself is not that great.

Taking that into account . The fact that the punishment ended in probation could be said to be almost a miracle, but I was concerned that the target of the punishment was Lucy. It seemed as if someone who knew intimately about Lucy’s vagrant temperament had taken revenge.

Oh, no way.

I regained some strength and stood up and twisted my body around.

If I were to speak of Yenika, she was helping me so much that I wondered if I could really do this.

On the first day, they brought me basic necessities from the hut or the library and brought them to me. They would bring food ingredients from the building and cook for them, or take care of class materials distributed by the teaching building.

Also, I almost had to live a rough life because I couldn’t do laundry right away, but they even brought my clothes and washed them every time… At this point, I was even wondering if I really should pay the money.

So when I asked him if he could do it for me, feeling half sorry and half grateful, he just waved his arms and declined, clearly showing that this is what it means to be a good person. “Ta-da!”

As I was thinking that, Yenika, who came into the cave with two bowls full of stew, shouted cheerfully.

Still

, I could prepare the meal, but she insisted on doing it all herself. I had no choice but to leave it to him.

“It’s the beef stew I often made in my hometown, and it’s a dish I’m personally very confident in!” As

I took one bowl, Jenica placed the other bowl on her lap and rested it on her waist. He raised his hands and spread them out across his chest. In short, he looked proud.

I responded appropriately by saying, “Oh,” and then picked up the bowl and adjusted my posture for a moment.

“….”

“….”

I’ve been feeling this lately. However, when I was alone with Jenica, silence would suddenly come to me without any warning. Although our relationship wasn’t particularly awkward, neither I nor Yenika could figure out the reason for this strange silence that came every now and then.

“Shall we eat then…”

“Okay…”

We felt embarrassed for no reason and quickly picked up the spoon.

I tried a few spoonfuls and it was really delicious. Even if it wasn’t delicious, we should applaud the dish for being delicious because of the effort put into making it, but there was no need for such stereotypical pretense, it was a truly delicious dish.

I thought that if I conveyed my impressions as is, Yenika would be genuinely happy, but…

“This is really delicious, Yenika. You’re really good at cooking.”

“Uh huh…”

The response I received was slightly different from what I expected.

The way he lowers his head and twirls with his fingertips gives the impression that he is somewhat embarrassed.

Then I was left with nothing to say in response… I had to experience that ‘strange silence’ one more time.

“It’s a dish I often make with my family.”

When I asked why he stopped speaking, it seemed like he chewed his tongue while eating stew. Yenika was in tears, stroking the corners of her mouth, but then sighed.

“Speaking of family, I haven’t found Tanya yet.”

“…”

Tanya had been missing ever since the day she escaped from Ofilis Hall.

After the incident was resolved, Ziggs and Yenika searched around for Tanya, but were unable to find her.

Because it was late at night, there was almost no eyewitness testimony. It is said that even after the incident was over, he did not return to the dormitory and even his basic belongings were still in his room.

“Uhm…”

“Don’t worry too much, Ed. I’m sure you’ll be fine.”

Jenica comforted me like that, blushing a little and eating a few servings of stew as if she were embarrassed.

I put down my spoon for a moment and got lost in thought.

It was definitely not a good thing for this situation to remain the same.
