It's already morning, and as usual, I perform the same routine I do every morning, so I walk to the academy once.

Once inside the academy, I head to storage to grab the cleaning cart and finish the job as quickly as possible, but it's not here.

I thought they would put it up this morning. However, it looks like they still don't, so I have to go with Siri to pick up the cart. I might as well skip the job with the excuse that the cart wasn't there, but I can't do that because I already did that yesterday.

Besides, if I were to tell Siri that, she would most likely stick a pencil in my back. Hence, for my back, it's better not to do that.

...

I start to climb the stairs towards the secretary, but when I'm outside the door, I hear a person arguing with Siri. In these circumstances, it is best not to enter and wait outside while involuntarily I listen to their discussion.

* When is he getting out of the punishment room?

* Siri: After two weeks.

* I want him out today.

* Siri: Professor, you know better than anyone that if a student commits a crime, he must be punished accordingly.

* He did nothing wrong.

* Siri: Behaving angrily and attacking an employee of the school is a serious crime.

* He couldn't possibly have done it!

* Siri: Many students witnessed Aron's behavior yesterday.

* My son is not that kind of student. There must be a mistake.

* Siri: There is no mistake. We checked the testimonies of both the victim of the attack and the students who witnessed it. We even used a truth sphere to check it, and indeed it is all true.

* That can't be...

* Siri: I am sorry to tell you that it is true. If you like, you can talk to the event victim since he is outside right now.

What the hell! How did Siri know he was outside? Does she have an ability to detect people?

In any case, I can't pretend I'm not here, so I have no choice but to go inside. An inside is a man in his 40s with black and white hair and no beard, wearing a light blue shirt with black pants and shoes, who looks at me with exploratory eyes.

* Siri: Good morning. I just came here for the cleaning cart.

* Siri: Um, about that...

* Is something the matter?

* Siri: Professor Arabi wants you to resign.

* He wants me to resign? What is the reason?

* Siri: He argues that you are not qualified to be the janitor.

* Is he serious?

* Siri: That's right.

* But this isn't rocket science. It's just cleaning the fucking dirt off the floors.

* Professor Arabi: That's why you're not qualified to clean a sacred place like this academy.

* Oh, are the floors made of gold? Or do they reveal the secrets of genetics when you walk on them? And what's with this "sacred place" bullshit? It's not like this place is a shrine.

* Professor Arabi: How dare you speak to me in that tone!

* Ah, SORRY YOUR HOLINESS, I didn't know I had to be respectful to the person trying to fire me. Please let me wash your shitty underpants to show my sincerity.

* Professor Arabi: Who do you think you are! Miss Siri! I demand that you be fired immediately!

* And I demand that you allow me to stick a knife in the ass of this pedant with erectile dysfunction!

* Siri: That's enough!

* Professor Arabi: Miss Siri, if this man is not fired immediately, I will resign.

After this senile older man said that, Siri's expression changed slightly. Then she turned in my direction with a pitiful expression, which didn't give me a good sign.

* Siri: *sigh* Mr. Marco, I regret to inform you that you are fired.

* ... The reason?

* Siri: Because the academy can't afford to lose a teacher.

When Siri says that, the senile older adult's face becomes smug as he looks at me as if I'm an inferior being which annoys me a lot. Still, if you think I'm going to leave things like that, you're wrong.

* I see... one question Miss Siri, is the vacancy of a temporary instructor at the academy still available?

* Siri: Huh?

My question takes Siri by surprise, so she takes a few seconds to answer.

The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

* Siri: It was already taken by a D-ranked adventurer.

* In that case, if I manage to defeat that adventurer, it means I'm more qualified to be an instructor than him, right?

* Siri: ....Yes!

* Perfect! Where is he?

* Siri: In the second building at the back.

* Roger!

I leave the room towards the second building, but not before throwing a smile at this whippersnapper. It's true that I don't take things seriously, but that all changes when I meet arrogant people like this senile older adult.

Siri also follows me, as she seems to know what I'm going to do, which will make things easier for me. The bad thing is that the piece of scrotum also follows me, so I'll pretend it doesn't exist unless he comes back to bother me.

As I'm on my way, I run into Indis and her friends, but I don't have time to say hello, so I nod my head and walk.

But still, Indis approaches me.

* Indis: Mr. Marco, where are you going?

* To the second building.

* Indis: Why?

* Didn't you want me to be an academy instructor?

* Indis: They hired you?!

* Once I defeat the current instructor, I will be.

* Indis: In that case, follow me. I know where he is.

Indis guides me to the current instructor in a spacious area with some students. He looks like he is about 20 years old and is wearing a white shirt, brown pants, and camouflage boots.

When the students notice me, they start muttering something, making the adventurer turn his head and look at Indis and me.

But before I can say anything, the adventurer starts talking.

* Until she finally comes back to the classroom, miss, are you ready to apologize?

* Indis: Instructor Rak, I already told you I would not apologize for what I did.

* Rak: What a rude girl. You should at least apologize for what you did to those kids.

* Indis: They deserved it.

Instructor Rak and Indis started a verbal fight because Indis went to take revenge on some boys who were spying on the girls' locker room, which, if I remember correctly, must be those monkeys who ran off in all directions. Then they complained to the instructor Rak which caused Indis to be expelled from the class.

This will put my mind at ease because I would feel bad if I beat an instructor to get back at that stinky older adult.

* Ok, you two stop arguing

* Indis: ?

* Rak: ?

* Instructor Rak, I came here to fight with you.

* Rak: Hey, what are you talking about?

* If I can beat you in a fight, I get your job, simple as that.

* Rak: And why should I accept it?

* If you beat me, I'll give you 1000 gold coins.

* Rak: Really?

* That's right.

* Rak: Perfect, I could use the money.

* Then, let's get started.

I take out my wooden sword, and Rak does the same. It doesn't matter to be a gentleman in this fight because we are betting on something.

Rak and I look at each other for a few seconds and then run and attack continuously, but compared to the fight I had with the goblin king, this guy is weaker.

Suddenly Rak's sword starts to show a faint glow. It's probably because of what I prepare to dodge.

* Rak: Sharp Cut!

A light shines from Rak's sword as it attacks me, forcing me to dodge it with a diagonal jump. When I dodge it, rak's sword hits the ground and leaves a deep mark on it.

This doesn't seem to be an attack skill but a buff skill, as his sword continues to glow even after hitting the ground, so if I want to win this fight, I must destroy or disarm his sword.

Rak continues attacking while I have to dodge his attacks, causing the floor to fill with cracks of various sizes. If this continues, the floor will become unstable and cause me to lose my balance.

I have no choice but to destroy his sword, so I wait for the moment when he raises his sword high enough to hit it without hurting him or the students.

A few seconds later, the opportunity appears when he tries to make a horizontal attack, so I prepare my skill and aim at the blade of his sword.

Focused Slash!

My laido shoots in his direction, leaving a deep trench in the ground and cutting the wooden blade of Rak's sword.

The attack leaves him confused, so I take advantage of the moment and hit him with the hilt on his chest, which is strong enough to make him fall to the ground, and place the tip of my sword on his neck.

* You lost.

* Rak: .... What the hell was that?

* My ability, didn't you hear?

* Rak: Who taught it to you?

* It's my creation.

* Rak: I see. In any case, I lost. You can keep the job.

* Thank you.

With that said, Rak stands up and says goodbye to everyone, which means I am now the new instructor, but there is still one thing left to do.

* Very well, Miss Siri, I am now the new instructor of the academy, correct?

* Siri: That's right!

* I guess now you're not going to ask me to resign or anything like that, gray-haired master?

* Professor Arabi: *Tch* Don't think you're so great because you defeated that adventurer.

* Really? Then what do you say we fight? If you win, I'll walk away, and if I win, you'll let me stick this sword in your ass. What do you say?

* Professor Arabi: WHAT THE FUCK!

* What's the matter? Afraid of losing? Don't worry. I promise to insert it slowly so that it won't hurt. Who knows, maybe you'll like it.

* Professor Arabi: INSOLENT! I'm not going to spend any more time talking to someone so rude!

The older man with erectile dysfunction leaves here in a bad mood, but I feel great instead. How nice is revenge!

* Too bad, I wanted to tease him some more.

* Siri: So the bet was fake.

* No, in fact, it was real.

* Indis: Are you serious?

* Very seriously, I'm a quiet guy, but that doesn't mean I'm going to put up with that kind of treatment. But if that testicle-faced guy screws with me again, I'll hang him from a tree and beat him like a punching bag.

* Siri: ...

* Indis: ...

* Students ...

* The good thing is that it's over and now I'm the new instructor of the academy, so .... What do I do?

* Indis: What do you mean?

* I mean, what do I have to do now?

* Siri: Wait a minute... Are you telling me you did all this to get back at Master Arabi and that you don't have any experience as an instructor?

* ...

* Siri: Mr. Marco.

* ... Am I telling you the truth, or are we still friends?
