Chapter 21: Had Sex But Still Childhood Friends (2)

Aaaaaaack!!! Professor!!! Just this once!!! Please, just check it once!!! Please, save meee!!!!!

She wore shabby sportswear, donned thick red horn-rimmed glasses, sported greasy braided hair, and carried a mountain of thesis papers.

Chloe Robellia, in the typical guise of a graduate student, followed the professor desperately.

Ive been busy since the semester started. Ive become the head professor, you know. What were you doing during the vacation that youre bringing your thesis now?

Creak Snap

Chloe gritted her teeth internally upon hearing the professors words.

If not for the consequences, she really wanted to kill him.

What did I do during the vacation?!!!!!

She had spent all day assisting with the professors personal research right in front of him!The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.

Even without pay!!!!!

Fine, let it be unpaid.

It wasnt uncommon, though not exactly normal, for a grad student to assist a professors personal research without pay.

But still

After all that work, she thought her name would at least appear on the thesis.

She hadnt even hoped to be the first co-author, just possibly the second.

But that damned professor had wiped his mouth clean without a word.

It was frustrating and unfair, but what could she do?

In this place, Chloe was the absolute inferior.

Respected professor!!! Please!!!! If I fail the thesis review again, Ill really die!!!!! Please!!! Please!!! Save me just this once!!!! Right? Professor Am I going to die?? Huh?? Should I jump out the window now???

Haareally I told you to prepare in advance. Tsk. Just leave it there. Ill look at it when I have time.

Aaaah!!!! Yes!!! Thank you!!! Theres no one like you, Professor!! I respect you!!! May you live long!!!

Such a fuss. Fine, just make sure to prepare the lecture materials well for next week.

Yes!!! Ill prepare them perfectly!!! Then, Ill take my leave!!!!

Chloe bowed 90 degrees and backed out of the room, closing the door gently behind her.

Click.

As the door closed, she twisted her face in frustration and flipped a double middle finger.

Haa really, that thing ugh

Click, shasha!

When the door opened again, Chloe, as if nothing had happened, concealed her hands and smiled brightly.

What can I do for you!!!! Respected Professor!!!!

Ah, Chloe. Sorry to bother you, but weve run out of coffee. Could you buy some if you have time?

Yes, sure!!! The usual vanilla latte double shot with whipped cream and java chips, right!!!

You know it well. Here, take this and buy something for yourself with the change.

Yes!!! Thank you!!!

Chloe tightly clutched the 10,000 Eris the professor handed her.

Really that bastard doesnt even drink the coffee from the Academy Caf.

As if she wasnt already busy, now she had to run to the store for coffee.

Haa

With her hands in her pockets, Chloe trudged toward the store, sighing deeply.

Why did her life have to get so twisted?

But she knew why.

It was her mistake to get an A+ in Magical Tool Manufacturing during her fourth year, second semester.

Student Chloe. 39 points for the midterm, 40 for the final, almost a perfect score.

Ah! Thank you for the high evaluation!

So, Im thankful you attended the lectures diligently. Id like to discuss something over a meal are you free this Thursday or Friday?

Yes! Professor! Of course! Is Thursday possible?

Great. Then come to my office at 12 on Thursday.

She should have refused, no matter the excuse.

Chloe, naively thinking shed merely be having a meal, was lured by the professors sweet talk of her potential and the promise of completing her Ph.D. in five years, leading her to sign her admission documents for graduate school.

The result?

Eight years later, Chloe was still trapped in graduate school.

If only I had escaped back then.

Chloe clutched her face, haunted by the missed opportunities to leave.

Three years after joining graduate school, Chloe finally received her masters degree. She thought to herself,



An intriguing post caught my attention.

How can I resist this?

The fact that it would vanish in 15 minutes made it irresistible.

I clicked on the post, planning to indulge in this bit of fun before easing into relaxation.

[In honor of my grandmother, I, the third-generation thief, am taking questions. The post will be deleted in 15 minutes][58]

Ask me anything you're curious about.

BabyNapmi: Eung-e? BabyNapmi-jjang is curious if you're really a thief! Eung-e!!

(74.812): A real thief, right Why would a thief be on a forum? Obviously, someone delusional, thinking they're a thief

Flame Sandwich: This IP is noted, definitely the real deal. Thought she quit the forum, but she's back.

Never Get An A: I know, too; it's legitimate. Look at what's in the background of the certification shot. All stolen goods.

(39.919): Ah, that got captured. Didn't mean to show that... but yes, I'm the real deal

JustSayNiceThings: What's your race? From your looks, definitely an elf?

(39.919): An elf? It's a secret, but I'm definitely not an elf.

JustSayNiceThings: ? Why are you laughing? Are elves funny to you?

(74.812): Even if it's real, just a thief showing off . Get a job you can be proud of in front of others .

(39.919): Eung~ Sorry, but thieving is a side job. I have another main job ^^.

(74.812): Side job, my foot . Sure you do . Can't even prove it .

(39.919): Expecting a thief to prove their job? And even if I were unemployed, selling just one of these would let me live my whole life ^^ Do you even have a job?

(74.812): Eung~ Not everyone makes a living by stealing like you~. Sorry, but I make over 150 billion Eris a year .

(39.919): 150 billion Eris . Aww, trying to win at any cost and making stuff up is sad ^^.

SpaceDirtSpoon: Hmm... But is 150 billion Eris in annual revenue really that impressive?? (I genuinely don't know)

ChildhoodFriendAssault: If the admin is watching, please ban this guy. These are really disgusting lies.

VirginityDetector: Hmm... 0.6 virgin.

(100.401): But Detector, if she's a virgin, she's a virgin, and if not, not. What's 0.6 virgin?

Tenant Farmer Fan: Don't you know the virginity theory? One of the body and mind must be non-virgin, I guess.

VirginityDetector: It's hard to find virgins these days, so 'mind' is out. If the 'body' is a virgin, that's enough.

Tenant Farmer Fan: That's generous... Then why 0.6 virgin?

VirginityDetector: She's technically a virgin but a bit damaged, 0.6. Soon, it'll be inedible.

(39.919): Sorry... I am a virgin and young. And comments like these are a bit uncomfortable ^^.

SpaceDirtSpoon: So, what are you planning to steal next?

(39.919): Can't tell you that... Just know it's going to be something really incredible.

(74.812): I'll say that too. She's definitely lying, right?

SpaceDirtSpoon : ... But you only steal from the rich, right? Why not target Redrose?

(39.919): Redrose is a bit;; It's not that I can't steal from her, but her guards are like crazy about money. They don't care about their lives and attack fiercely. If I tried to steal, someone might get seriously hurt.

SpaceDirtSpoon: Hmm, so even a thief can't handle Redrose?

(39.919): It's not that I can't, but... I'm worried about people getting hurt. I'm a thief, not a robber.

(74.812): So, the conclusion is you're a washed-up thief? You haven't stolen anything recently, have you?

(39.919): I've been busy with my main job recently, taking a break ^^

(74.812): So, what is that main job

(39.919): Sigh, I can't communicate with you, and you keep trolling, so I'm blocking you ^^

(74.812) : Breaking) Self-proclaimed thief blocks when out of words

NeverGetA A: Thief, don't worry about that guy. He's famous for trolling. Just block and ignore him.

(39.919) : Yes, thanks ^^ Already blocked him.

To think the thief, always so gloriously portrayed in the newspapers, had this kind of personality

As always, the personas people present online and in real life are so different.

If only I had used a fixed nickname, I might have found out their name.

Not that I would report them or anything, but it would have been quite interesting to know the identity of the thief that everyone from the royal family to various nobles was trying to uncover.

Well, it cant be helped since its an anonymous post.

Just as I was about to relish some happy time alone with Yuris, a thought suddenly struck me,

Wait I can find out, cant I?
