Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me

9 – Denbergen Academy (2)

The magical airship landed in a nearby village a short distance from Denbergen Academy.

The reason was that the barrier surrounding Denbergen Academy would not allow entry unless it was a school-approved means of transportation.

I couldn’t get off at the academy right away and had to walk a little longer, but it wasn’t a big deal.

“We have to separate from here. Freshmen enter separately.”

“Are you going first?”

“Yes, good luck. Don’t be too scared.”

“…… What?”

“There is such a thing.”

Then, by the time the academy’s main gate came into view, Louisa said goodbye to me and Charlotte.

It seemed that the entrance procedure was different for freshmen and current students.

As if they had met someone they knew, only Charlotte and I were left behind Louisa, who immediately started talking to the other students and walked away.

“There are only two of us left. What are freshmen doing?”

“Well, freshmen must have more things to do.”

Looking around, there were fresh newcomers huddled together, full of lively energy as if they had just turned 17.

It seemed that the space in front of the main gate was filled with the anticipation of the new students who were visiting their new home, Denbergen Academy, for the first time.

Have you been influenced by that atmosphere?

For some reason, I was feeling the excitement for the first time in a while.

“By the way, good fortune, what did Lady Luisa mean?”

“Didn’t I just tell you to endure it because your academy life is about to begin?”

“Okay. I wonder if there is a test or something…….”

Charlotte looked around with her cautious gaze, then widened her eyes as if she had found something interesting.

“Boss, there are so many people gathered over there.”

“Shall we go?”

Anyway, I’ve been paying attention to the direction Charlotte pointed at for a while.

The front gate is on the other side, and the guards are still blocking the freshmen from entering, so why are there so many people over there?

She just happened to bring up her story, so she decided to move on.

“Stay right behind me and follow me.”

However, it was not so easy to break through the crowd of freshmen and see what had happened.

Even if you try to see it from afar, it’s immediately gold, black, gray… I couldn’t see it because the colorful heads covered my view.

In the end, the only way was to penetrate the people.

“Behind the boy? Kyaaak!”

I yanked her Charlotte roughly and put her arms around my waist before striding forward to her.

If I didn’t do this, I could be swept away by people in no time, so it was a necessary measure.

“Ugh, ugh… ….”

There was a strange noise coming from behind, but I just focused on getting through the front.

No, there might be some contradiction when it comes to piercing.

Because the front of me has been ‘pierced’ since the beginning.

“Wow, too, young boy. How did this happen…… ?”

From the outside, it looked like it was full of people and there was no time to set foot in it, but when I went inside, it was a different story.

No one stood in my way, and I was moving forward without the slightest hesitation.

It wasn’t that there were no obstacles. Not every student got out of the way as I went on.

‘That’s the basics of being an assassin.’

Kill the presence and erase the presence.

Even the shadow melts into the darkness and is invisible to anyone.

The root of an assassin is the ‘shadowing method.’

When I taught Elfin swordsmanship, it was also the first step I taught him.

I used shamanic walking to cross a street corner full of people.

As I passed by, I sometimes brushed the collars of other people, but no one cared about me.

Besides being focused on something else in the center, he didn’t even recognize me at all when he did the shamanic step.

“Whoa, whoa….”

Charlotte exclaims from behind.

It was strange that they were in the same space and didn’t hide, but the people around them didn’t recognize them at all.

Not only did her effect apply to her just by sticking to my body, but her mere exclamation of Charlotte was not enough to break it, so I was able to enter the deepest part of her crowd without any problems.

“We are here.”

Soon I took Charlotte and arrived at a location where I could see why people were flocking to one place.

Meanwhile, Charlotte didn’t even know I had stopped and she stood there blankly, then she noticed it belatedly and she untied her arms around my waist.

“Oops! I’m sorry! I dare to touch the young master’s waist…….”

“Okay, it’s not worn out.”

She looked slightly embarrassed and shy, but on the other hand, Charlotte was looking up at me with her bright eyes.

“But what did you do? Just, that… ?”

“Do you want to learn?”

“Yes? No, how could I….”

“I can tell you if you want. I don’t know how long it will take you to learn it.”

For some reason, talking about this with Charlotte reminded me of Elfin.

Elfin succeeded in following similarly the first day I taught him shadow walking, and the next day he had mastered it perfectly.

I still wonder how an elf with such a talent went missing without being recorded in history…….

‘I’ll have to find out from now on.’

If the headmaster of Denbergen Academy is really Justina, she might know where Elfin or Liwin are.

I don’t know what Liwin is like, but at least he would have kept interacting with Elfin.

The two children who have been together for 10 years have gone beyond being friends, and it would be enough to say that they are almost sisters.

“Wow, boy. It is a golden carriage!”

I was lost in thought for a moment, then suddenly I woke up to Charlotte’s hand shaking my sleeve.

I wondered how quickly Charlotte’s demeanor had changed since I had been surprised by my step a moment ago and then by another, but the direction she pointed made me think she was surprised.

As she said, in the center of the gathered crowd was a golden carriage.

A majestic golden chariot pulled by two winged horses.

At a glance, the assassin’s eyes recognized that it was real pure gold, and that all the decorations around the carriage were all expensive and real valuables.

“There was a reason we gathered like this.”

There was a different reason why I was concerned about this from earlier.

If there were only commoner students, they wouldn’t have been very interested.

But aren’t the well-dressed nobles staring at the golden carriage with childlike faces?

‘Are more than half of the students at Denbergen Academy aristocrats?’

Of course, there are commoners, but according to what I found out in advance, it seems that even after going through various equalization procedures, the nobles still have strong influence.

Even if you insist on equality with all kinds of rules in school, you can’t help it because there are families outside the school.

So, in a place where many children of noble families with high self-esteem gathered, it was quite awkward to be cornered like bees just because one great person appeared.

“Who is riding in that carriage? What kind of person are you….”

“The royal family.”

“…… Yes?”

“Probably the prince. It seemed like you were entering this year.”

Charlotte was taken aback by my answer, so she covered her mouth with her hand and coughed softly.

“Wow, is that the prince?”

“Yes, the Third Prince. I mean Joseph. Since you’re 17 this year, it wouldn’t be strange if you enrolled in Denbergen Academy, which is said to be the best on the continent.”

500 Years ago, all the famous academies were built under the royal order.

However, there were also many cases in which schools, as educational institutions, fell into chaos due to the king’s sole decision or intertwined with various political relations.

In that case, only parents and students would be severely affected.

In fact, there were people who supported our resistance for that reason.

Louisa didn’t seem to know, but these factors were involved in the rise of Denbergen Academy instead of the existing royal academies heading for ruin.

‘Denbergen Academy is private. It is said that the operation cost is operated with a huge amount of money from unknown sources, donations from graduates, and support from the imperial family.’

I’m a little concerned about this unknown huge capital here, but what I need to focus on is the royal family’s support.

The imperial family sponsors Denbergen and at the same time sends the children of the imperial family to Denbergen Academy.

Of course, the 1st and 2nd princes have completed the academy, but it seems that there are some princesses who are still in school.

‘If it’s natural for the third prince Joseph to come, then it’s only natural.’

Perhaps the reason people gathered like this was because rumors had already spread.

However, I was a little reluctant to run into a man named Joseph.

“Charlotte, let’s go back. There wasn’t much to see.”

“Yes? Still, he’s a prince. Just watch him get off the carriage and go!”

“What are you looking at? All wagons are the same wagon. No, it’s a little different since the school approved that you can come in here.”

“Oh! Uh! Now is not the time for that, boy! The door is open! You have to look over there!”

Damn, I thought it would come out like that.

Of course, it was about Joseph, not Charlotte.

This is what happened. I tried to get out quietly, covering only half of my face with my hand.

However, he was not the kind of person to let go so lightly.

“What is this! Isn’t it my old friend, Lord Deneb of the Rehinar family?!”

Joseph, that is to say, Kaiten The third son of the imperial family, Joseph Kaiten, stared straight at me, not anywhere else, and shouted so that the front gate of the Denbergen Academy reverberated.

Unsurprisingly, the crowd stared at the place Joseph was looking at, that is, at me.

As an assassin, I was not used to hundreds of eyeballs that only looked at me, so I sweated profusely.

“Ha ha ha ha! What a coincidence! Meeting you as a classmate here! I never thought I would see my old friend again in a place like this!”

“…… Ah, yes.”

“Are you going to enter Denbergen Academy too? I wish I could take the same class later! Come on, is the entrance over there?”

“I can’t get in yet, maybe…” ….”

While Prince Joseph, the blond Prince full of energy, and I who couldn’t get away from him were being dragged around, Charlotte continued to follow her and stare at me with her blank eyes.

– ‘How did this happen, Bocchan?’

– ‘I don’t know.’

I replied with my mouth open.

Unlike just a moment ago, when I was walking around people, oblivious to my presence, Josef gave off a spirit that made everyone get out of the way just by stepping out.

This was not an assassin’s footsteps. It was the footsteps of the royal family.

“Being together like this reminds me of my childhood! Well yes! I often went to the magic library that your father manages!”

“I am grateful to you for remembering the relationships we passed by as children….”

“That can’t be! Lord Deneb, you were like a teacher to me back then! You are proficient in all aspects, including combat as well as knowledge, would you believe me if I respected you more than my father or older brothers?”

Charlotte opened her eyes wide as if that was real, and I nodded roughly.

‘It’s real, but.’

I used to go to my father’s library often when I was young, and at that time, Prince Joseph also often stopped by the magic library.

Of course, the magic library wasn’t necessarily attached to the imperial family. Even the imperial family had their own library.

Nevertheless, it is true that the magic library that my father manages is the best library in the Kaiton Empire.

So, this… That’s how much Joseph liked books.

‘Damn it, I was still suffering from Master’s disease at the time!’

Apart from Justina, she is me who raised Elfin and Leewin.

Now, some time has passed and I am able to objectify, but at that time I was overconfident in my qualifications as a teacher, thinking that I had raised a genius called Elfin.

Even though Joseph now says he respected me and regarded me as a teacher, that time was nothing short of dark history for me.

Think about it, a man of the mental age of 40 pretended to be a much superior peer of the royal family and served as a mentor to a child less than 10 years old…… ?

“It’s nice to have a friend to share a meal with! hahahaha!”

From noble mtl dot com

So, Joseph was not a bad person.

I just avoid it because I remember the embarrassing portraits of my past.

Considering that he was looking for Liwin, Elfin, and Justina, there was nothing wrong with being friendly with Joseph.

Actually, as long as you don’t even plot a rebellion, what’s wrong with being friendly with the royal family?

“By the way, who is the lady who has been following you since earlier?”

“Ah, ah! Yes I’m Shah, Charlotte! There are no last names! As a maid serving Master Deneb…….”

“Huh! No way! Servants won’t be able to enter the academy?!”

“Ah! Yes! So I am a maid, but at the same time I am also a freshman!”

“What?! You were a commoner full of talent! You too will be my friend! So, you already have two friends! Ha ha ha ha ha!”

I stared at Charlotte, who was trembling a lot, ignoring the muscular man who was hugging my shoulder and laughing merrily.

‘Benefits from being close… That’s right… ?’
