Konoha: Naruto will win no matter what choice he makes! Chapter 147

The welcome ceremony for the new professor was held at 6 PM on Monday.

As if to dilute the impact of Professor Didi’s departure, this welcome ceremony was exceptionally grand.

Claire herself wasn’t particularly keen on it, but for the development of her alma mater, she tried her best to cooperate.

During the stage speech, some unexpected incidents occurred that surprised her.

The first-year students from the Arcane Academy and the Fool’s Academy actually prepared gifts for her and presented them to her in front of the entire faculty and student body.

There were also individual students, with flushed faces, who presented her with bouquets of flowers.

This wasn’t because she was the new professor.

It was because she was once a student of St. Marian’s, and even more so, a hero of humanity!

…

First-year magic history classes were held on the second and fourth days of the week.

Claire began preparing her lessons on Monday morning, and by Tuesday afternoon, she was standing on the magic history podium, replacing Headmaster Arte.

The students from the four houses held immense respect for this hero, known as the “Beast Sage,” and thus behaved exceptionally well at the beginning of the class.

Claire smoothly transitioned through the self-introduction segment and began the formal lecture.

Her lecturing style was quite similar to Headmaster Arte’s; the stories completely deviated from the textbook, possessing both entertainment and knowledge.

If one had to point out a flaw, it would be the almost complete lack of emotional fluctuation and a tendency towards a flat tone, as if stating facts from an objective standpoint, lacking a sense of immersion.

In this regard, she was quite similar to Professor Didi.

In short, listening for too long easily made one drowsy.

But Claire seemed to be just such a person.

She was intellectual and rational, indifferent and wise.

…

After the initial excitement, the young mages no longer seemed as thrilled about the new professor’s arrival.

Claire quickly integrated into the academy’s atmosphere, captivating a group of students with her beautiful appearance and gentle demeanor.

Although some students didn’t like her, no one dared to speak out against the prevailing trend.

…

A week passed in a blink of an eye.

The students gradually adapted to the new professor’s arrival.

Claire also gradually adapted to her new identity.

November 21st, Tuesday afternoon.

In her third magic history class since joining the faculty, Claire finally revealed a hint of her true nature.

→She turned a sleeping student into a pig!

Although it was a plump little pig that made one want to hug and knead it, a pig was still a pig.

She simply called out a name.

Before anyone could react.

The student who was趴 on the desk suffered a nightmare!

He even thought he hadn’t woken up yet!

Anyone who falls asleep in class and then suddenly wakes up to find themselves turned into a pig would probably have the urge to escape reality.

But the astonishment, shock, fear, and schadenfreude projected by his classmates around him gave him an extremely ominous premonition.

It wasn’t until Professor Claire Cate’s calling out and criticism reached his ears that he vaguely realized something.

…

Looking at the “oink-oink” little pig, Robert Broheim, who had almost fallen asleep face down, suddenly shivered violently, almost screaming out loud.

He quickly wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and stammered to Witt, “Witt, I’m awake now, right?”

Witt, who was essentially also drowsy, was now also sweating profusely.

For the past week or so.

As the craze for the secret passage adventure gradually cooled down, the amount of homework assigned by the professors also gradually returned to normal.

With free time, Witt and Robert would run to the secret passage every night, battling wits and strength with the golems there.

There were others who entered the secret passage, but their number was small and still within a controllable range.

Witt’s treasure hunt finally made some progress.

But human energy is limited, and the secret passage adventure exhausted their energy, making it difficult for them to concentrate in class.

Occasionally, someone would even be late for the first class in the morning.

Although Witt and Robert weren’t late, they were both in low spirits.

This manifested as a regression in their academic performance.

But Witt couldn’t worry about that anymore.

Because the two sets of [Blink Charm] materials he bought with 2000 academic credits all failed!

Although the subsequent [Magic Bullet Charm] succeeded.

He no longer had academic credits to waste.

He needed the treasure his father left behind!

…

After this class ended.

The new magic history professor’s actions in class spread like wildfire.

Her originally excellent reputation fluctuated greatly in a very short time.

The lower-grade students were extremely frightened, while the upper-grade students were shocked by Professor Cate’s high level of transfiguration spell mastery.

Other professors would deduct academic credits.

Professor Claire Cate didn’t deduct points.

She just turned students into pigs!

…

Although the time spent as a pig wasn’t long, it would still become a huge stain on one’s academy life.

Just thinking about encountering former classmates on the road someday after graduation.

Even if you enthusiastically greet them, they might temporarily forget your name, and after much thought, suddenly exclaim, “I remember now, you’re the XXX who was turned into a pig!”

One would just want to die.

…

The young mages no longer dared to slack off in magic history class.

…

Another week passed in a blink of an eye.

Dark’s “Arcane Language” was beginning to show results.

He finally had some confidence in crafting the [Blink Charm].

November 29th, Wednesday afternoon.

After making thorough preparations, Dark began crafting the [Blink Charm] in his dorm room.

For this day, he had purchased an additional set of [Blink Charm] materials last weekend.

The main difficulty in crafting the [Blink Charm] lay in imprinting the spell.

But after self-studying “Arcane Language,” he was now able to cross this hurdle with relative proficiency.

The subsequent crafting became a matter of course.

Even Dark himself didn’t expect that he would succeed in his very first attempt at crafting the [Blink Charm]!

The [Blink Charm] is a spell involving spatial teleportation.

Mages of the old era who wanted to master this type of magic would undoubtedly need extraordinary talent.

But in the Arcane Era, even a beginner like Dark could master it through the crafting of spell cards.

The effect of the [Blink Charm] is very direct: to instantly move forward one to three meters.

Besides being used for emergency evasion, its most effective use is to cross obstacles such as walls.

If used well, it could even save a life.

Such spell cards are naturally the more, the merrier.

Therefore, after successfully crafting the first [Blink Charm], Dark immediately began crafting the second one.

However, in the crafting of the second one, an unknown error occurred, directly leading to failure.

Fortunately, the core material was not used, so by adding some relatively cheap basic materials, he could restart the crafting process.

He did not feel disheartened.

Instead, he recorded the entire process.

That same day, he found Professor Cazel, and with the professor’s help, found the error and gained a deeper understanding of “Arcane Language.”

…

November thus drifted by.
