Celthina, that old woman!!!
Turning his head in exasperation to look at Celthina, who was still snickering in place, Lynn’s fury was already at the point where he wanted to directly wipe out the entire Elf Village.
However, the other party didn’t seem to realize the severity of the situation. On the contrary… this Miss Elf was staring at Lynn with a look of pleasure, mixed with a bit of curiosity, as if her expression was saying:
“You haven’t told her your real identity yet?!”
Isn’t that freaking obvious?
Did Keti’s expression just now look like someone who knew a lot?!
Lynn was almost speechless. He had specially taken time out today to help her, and this was the kind of fun she was going to have at his expense?
Gulp.
Facing the severe warning look from the other Lord Regent, Celthina eventually stuck out her tongue.
Realizing that continuing to make fun of him might cause trouble, she immediately nodded and gave an “I understand” gesture.
My, my, it really can’t be helped. After all, she didn’t want to lose a reliable ally like Lynn, so…
“Sorry, sorry! I didn’t explain clearly just now. Little Lynn is actually my subordinate, right?”
“Tch…”
Celthina timely offered a passable explanation. Although Lynn didn’t really want to accept it, he couldn’t think of a better excuse at the moment. Thus, he could only grit his teeth and play along.
“Right, that’s right. I’m very familiar with Celthina, so I’ve always just called her by her name. Haha, how could I possibly be an Executive?”
“Cat, you’re overestimating me a bit. If I were an Executive, why would I still be a Teacher at the Magic Academy?”
“Ugh…… Re-really?”
Seeing Lynn flash a confident smile at her, Keti barely managed to wipe the sweat from the corner of her eyes and calmed her heart.
Ah, right. That’s right. It wasn’t tears, it was sweat. Keti would obviously not cry just because her enemy lied to her about his identity.
She was just truly worried that if Lynn was an Executive, she could be said to have completely offended him during this period of time.
It was truly impossible not to break out in a cold sweat. Keti even felt a bit wet… It—it should just be because she was more of an M. It couldn’t be that she… she peed herself, right? Wu—
Even so, Lynn’s words didn’t sound very convincing. Even the reason was first provided by Celthina, and then Lynn echoed it.
Although Keti had almost fainted just now, she was still secretly paying attention to Lynn and Celthina’s movements. Was this… really believable?
A lowly subordinate of a Lord Regent, and one of the Five Archons…
Which one was her enemy’s real identity?
Because of this, the Silver-Haired Girl fell into silence. It wasn’t because the situation was too complicated; the situation was actually very simple.
What her enemy’s identity actually was…this completely depended on what she hoped it would be.
What was important wasn’t what Lynn’s identity was, but how she could put her own mind at ease and stop herself from panicking so much.
In that case, the answer was beyond doubt.
This guy Lynn—
He could only be the Miss Elf’s dog! Waah—!
Gulp…
Although she preferred it if her enemy became her own dog… the difference between provoking an Executive’s dog and provoking an Executive was simply too large.
For the first time, Keti felt lucky that her enemy wasn’t some incredibly powerful figure. Hahahaha, right, that’s right. After all… what her enemy said made sense too.
What kind of Executive would play at being a Teacher every day? Are they sick in the head?
Ahem… Although, an Executive’s subordinate being a Teacher also seemed a bit strange.
Hmm.
Keti scratched her hair and suddenly remembered something. Oh right, speaking of which—
Damn it, that Director Richard, that animal who was always targeting her… hadn’t her enemy mentioned it before?
He was also one of a certain Executive’s people. Speaking of which, he was under the very person in front of her, the Great Elf, the Mage Executive, Celthina!
Holy crap, this was too ridiculous. Her superior was the Great Elf’s person, and her enemy was also the Great Elf’s person.
Yet the two of them were arguing in front of her earlier, and her enemy even used the identity of being a subordinate of the Mage Executive to scare her.
So you two were putting on a double act with me the whole time?
Playing me?!
Was the entire Magic Academy monopolized by the Mage Executive in front of her? Why was everyone her person? Could it be that the middle-aged Teacher who made a bet with her was also her person?!
Thinking this way, the Silver-Haired Girl suddenly felt a bit of creeping horror. Uh… it should be different from what she was thinking, right?
“You’re Miss Celthina’s subordinate? Oh… this is the first time I’ve heard of that. Why didn’t you tell me before? I really thought you were an Executive…”
“Um, because… ahem, I didn’t intentionally keep it from the Cat. Don’t be sad. I was just worried that if you knew, you’d always be worried about me.”
“Yeah, because you see, this Mage Executive doesn’t look very decent; she must be someone who often causes trouble for others, right?”
Lynn scratched his hair and tried his best to continue explaining to the girl:
“There are such rumors in the Imperial Capital as well. They say that being a subordinate of the Mage Executive is bound to be exhausting.”
“That Miss Elf can always find new ways to torment people. The Hunter Archon is much more reliable, doing everything personally~”
“Hmm… Why do those words sound a bit thorny? My dear subordinate, Mister! Lynn! Hmph… You probably don’t want me to tell Miss Keti what you usually do when you’re not in class, do you?”
“Ah, cough, cough, no, don’t…”
“Eh? What? What is it? I want to hear! I want to hear!”
Keti originally wanted to complain to Lynn about why his previous words made it sound like he was afraid she’d be heartbroken, but once Celthina said that, Keti’s interest was immediately piqued.
What exactly did Lynn do all day? Keti had truly been concerned about this matter for a long time. Ahem… the Silver-Haired Girl had even frequently developed the idea of tailing Lynn.
If it weren’t for the fact that she had to teach Students every day, gulp… she really wanted to see what Lynn was up to every day.
Now that there was an opportunity to listen, the Silver-Haired Girl immediately straightened her posture and prepared to listen. It was only when her enemy beside her coughed violently twice that he continued:
“Enough, let’s get to business. After dealing with your request… I mean order, I want to take Little Keti back early to rest.”
“Oh… how blissful~ Alright, you two, let’s go. Indeed, there’s no time to lose.”
Celthina chuckled lightly and then turned her head to lead the way. The little Elf girl who had been blocking the road earlier also obediently stepped aside.
Only Keti suddenly realized something and immediately spoke up:
“Eh… wait, wait a minute! That… I—can I not go?”
