(EP-140.1) Professor #3
140 – Fairy Professor #3
Me, Mirna, and Professor Stella went to a café in Ark’s campus.
The cafe was built with brown bricks, giving off a warm and cozy feel, which was perfect for couples on a date.
As we entered the serene interior of the café’s second floor, we each ordered a drink and took our seats.
“.......”
Meanwhile, Stella’s eyes were constantly darting everywhere. She looked like a deer cautiously drinking from a pond in a meadow full of predators.
“Tweety.”
─Pireureuk.
She soon summoned a giant blue eagle flying in the sky. And then she whispered into its ear.
“Keep an eye on those collectors.”
─Quiying!
Flapflap.
As I watched the bird fly out the window, it was only then that I remembered why Stella was acting so cautiously.
She owed a huge debt of 500 million coins to the bank. That was why she’d been hiding and being as inconspicuous as possible.
Teureureuk, teureureuk.
Finally, she brought over a folding screen-like object and placed it around us, creating a secluded space. With a satisfied expression, Stella uttered a brief remark, “Good.”
Seeing her so anxious, I couldn’t help but feel anxious myself.
To be honest, I felt a bit uneasy.
Me, Mirna, and Stella Belhawk.
It was an unexpected combination. I had no idea what would unfold from this conversation today.
It felt awkward.
Hureureup.
“So.”
Mirna, who had taken a sip of her white-colored tea, was the first to speak.
“Is it true that you owe 500 million coins? Judging by your attitude, it seems like the debt collectors are looking for your payment.”
“What...?”
Stella’s amber eyes immediately turned to me.
Her glare was basically saying, “Why the hell would you say that?”, so I decided to speak frankly.
“I can’t reject Lady Draco’s questioning, can I?”
“Well, that’s true. But still, this isn’t right. Revealing someone’s secret when they asked for it to be kept. Theo, I’m really disappointed in you. Truly.”
She said, “Kneel before me and apologize. You have tarnished my honor,” putting on an even stronger condition. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
