Chapter 38: Headmistress Eve
Miss Camille began leading him through the long hallways until they reached the third floor.
Following Miss Camille, we approached the end of the hallway on the third door. The door had a sign with headmistress written on it.
Miss Camille knocked on the door when they arrived.
"Headmistress, it's me."
"Camille? Enter." A female voice resounded from inside the room.
Miss Camille opened the door and walked inside with both of us right behind her.
Sitting at the end of the room before a large wooden desk was a red-haired beauty who emitted an overwhelming aura that demanded everyone before her presence to be obedient.
"Hey, Camille. What's the—"
The Headmistress halted her mouth when she noticed us. In fact, she forgot how to breathe for the next few moments as she stared at my face.
"Headmistress, before you act all cra—"
"OSWALD?!?!?!" The Headmistress suddenly stood up and slammed her desk, causing the entire room to tremble.
Leo swallowed nervously. The Headmistress in this world was countless times more fearsome than the one in his own world, and he was judging her by her presence alone.
After standing up, the Headmistress rushed to stand in front of me, and she started pulling on my face.
"Hey, that hurts!" I quickly stepped back and stared at her awkwardly.
"Headmistress, please calm down." Miss Camille quickly stood between them.
"Camille! What's the meaning of this?! Why is Oswald here?! I demand an explanation!"
"I would've done so long ago if you hadn't interrupted me." Miss Camille sighed as she shook her head.
"Anyways, I'm sure you already know this, but he's Oswald and Leo is also here."
"That's impossible! Oswald died in fornt of my eyes and Leo died three months ago!" She exclaimed
"Let me finish. Oswald came back from dead because of some kind of artifact from his family and as for Leo, we all believed that Leo had died, but that's not the case. He'd actually survived, but for some reason, he wasn't able to return until today. I just found this out not long ago when I found him wandering in front of the school building."
The Headmistress stared at Leo with her mouth and eyes wide open.
"L-Leo… O -Oswald... Is that really you? Where have you been Leo?"
"Don't bother. He doesn't remember anything about what happened. In fact, he's missing most of his memories." Miss Camille said.
"No way…" The Headmistress staggered backward until she was stopped by her own desk.
"W-Wait! What about his combat abilities? Does he at least remember how to fight?!"
"Unfortunately, no." Miss Camille shook her head.
The Headmistress began pondering with a frown on her face.
"Perhaps if we awakened his memories using magic, he might…"
"I have already tried that." Miss Camille quickly said.
"As much as I hate to say it, there's nothing we can do but wait until he recovers his memories by himself."
"What a disaster!" The Headmistress sighed out loud, and she continued, "Despite not being able to use magic, he was one of the strongest students in this academy! As a knight, he'd surpassed all expectations! He even fought and killed many vampires! Without Leo, our academy's prowess is greatly weakened!"
"However, not all hope is lost! Even if Leo loses all of his memories, his talent is still there! As long as we train him properly, he will eventually regain his former strength. And when he recovers his memories, he'll become even more powerful!" Despite despairing just moments ago, the Headmistress managed to bounce back with enthusiasm.
I saw how they were more focused on Leo. It was because the previous Leo is a really strong individual in this academy. He could even be considered one of the pillars of the academy.
Leo swallowed nervously, and he glanced at Miss Camille, who merely shook her head in silence.
"Headmistress, do you mind if I take care of their training?" Miss Camille suddenly said.
"Huh? What about your job as a nurse? You're the most experienced nurse we have!"
"It's not like I am going to train him for the entire day. We'll do it after school."
"Are you sure? You don't have to force yourself. There are plenty of instructors—" The Headmistress frowned.
"As long as you pay for overtime." Miss Camille calmly interrupted.
"But still training two of them..." Headmistress showed her worry.
The Headmistress smiled and said, "Of course, you'll be paid overtime."
"Then it's fine. I will do it." Miss Camille nodded
The Headmistress nodded.
'Haaa… I cannot imagine how the academy will react once they learn that Leo has come back from the dead.' She sighed inwardly.
"Anyways, if you need any help, you know where to find me."
"Of course."
We left the Headmistress' room with Miss Camille shortly after.
"Now what?" Leo asked her.
"Now you will go to class and truly come back from the dead," she calmly said.
"Miss Camille, I would like to ask you if the school had already tested my magic affinity?" I asked her politely.
"Uhh... No. They didn't. You chose to go to ordinary classes and always used a scythe so the school assumed that you didn't have any affinity." She replied with widened eyes like she had just recieved enlightenment.
"So... Wait?! You mean you have some magic affinity?!" She asked me with shock and excitement. Most of her excitement was from the curiosity to know why I chose ordinary classes when I had some magic affinity.
"We will talk about that during the training." I replied with a mysterious smile.
"Kuh... W-Well then, let's go to the class." Miss Camille said whike gritting her teeth. Nobody has kept her in suspense in such a way. Usually she was the one who kept others in suspense.
Hearing Miss Camille, Leo swallowed nervously, "What kind of classes did I attend? Magic classes?"
"You can't use magic, so you only took ordinary classes." Miss Camille replied.
"As long as it's not about magic and vampires, I should have no trouble with the materials and the examinations, so I won't fail any classes…" He sighed in relief.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Studying is the only thing I am good at." He said after seeing Miss Camille's weird face.
Sometime later, we returned to the second floor and stopped in front of the first classroom beside the staircase.
Miss Camille knocked on the door and waited for the teacher.
A moment later, a blonde beauty wearing a white cheongsam appeared before them.
"Camille? What's the—" The teacher halted her mouth when she noticed the handsome figure standing behind Miss Camille.
It took a long moment, but she eventually recognized his face and exclaimed in a shocked voice, "O-O-Oswald?! L-L-Leo?!"
