Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 47

Raymond left as if a storm had passed, and the principal, who had been sitting quietly in his seat, burst into laughter.

I had a vague idea that soon after the vice principal came in, the whereabouts of the money coming in became unclear.

So we were investigating in many ways, but we couldn’t easily find evidence because of how secretive it was and how good it was at erasing traces.

But I never thought I could get that evidence so easily.

“How did you get this?”

It was amazing to get something like this that I had been researching for several years in various fields.

Where did you get it?

“You mean the Millennium?”

I knew that each noble had their own information network.

But I had no idea that his abilities were this great.

I thought it wasn’t easy either, but this cannot be compared.

“By the way, I ate a lot.”

The principal, who looked through the contents of the box Raymond had left behind, could not hide his feeling of disappointment.

Each and every one of them stole such a huge amount of money that it was surprising how they could not get caught.

This is why the academy’s facilities are getting worse.

‘The Board of Audit and Inspection was also one of them.’

One of the documents stated that the auditors who came this time were on the same boat as the vice principal.

An auditor dispatched from the royal family received a favor?

But that couldn’t have happened.

What if the reason the vice principal was able to endure without being caught until now was because the Board of Audit and Inspection was on one side?

Then it made sense.

Since the Board of Audit and Inspection was on one side, it would have been possible to falsify the ledgers and manipulate the academy without their eyes.

“The more I think about it, the more shameful it becomes.”

The more I looked, the more it showed me how serious the sin was.

Even just a few of these could result in spending the rest of your life in prison.

This is because the royal family’s subsidies were stolen.

However, if you look at these people, they should be put in prison, tortured every day, and finally executed with terrible pain.

No, that’s not enough.

The principal, whose thoughts had reached that point, quickly headed to the table where he was doing his work or personal affairs.

Raymond entrusted me with a task, so I have to live up to it.

I placed my hand on the crystal ball at the edge of the table and injected magical energy into it.

Ugh.

A bright light illuminated the surroundings, and soon a person’s face appeared above the crystal ball.

This is a communication port that was purchased with a lot of money.

-What’s wrong with you? Even if I told you to contact me like that on a regular basis, I wouldn’t.

“haha. I’m sorry. “I’ve been busy with work these days and haven’t had time.”

-If I don’t have time, I try to be less busy than I am… So what’s going on? You are not the person to contact me without any business.

“iced coffee. “Wait a minute…”

The principal took the secret ledger from the box and showed it to him.

-What is that?

“It’s a pest medicine for the bugs that eat away at the academy.”

-Hmm?

“Looking here, there are a lot of hammocks. This alone is thousands of gold. But there is not just one, but dozens of them.”

-what? This is crazy…!

The man’s face became serious.

He then asks the principal how he got it.

The principal shook his head and said he couldn’t answer.

“So I need your help.”

-…I understand what the situation is. But it’s strange. Since you already have the evidence, why don’t you do it yourself? I think it is entirely possible with your authority. Didn’t His Highness give you all authority related to the academy?

“It did.”

-And above all. My family should be there by now, right? If it’s difficult for you to do it yourself, leave it to them. These kids have quite a bit of ability, so I’m thinking of putting them to good use.

“That’s why I need your help.”

-…?

“If your family hadn’t come, I would have handled it under my personal authority. But then they came and things got awkward. I can’t handle it hastily. “There is an Board of Audit and Inspection, so it’s strange for me to handle it.”

-…So what are you trying to say?

The man’s face crumpled.

He looked like he couldn’t understand what the principal was trying to say.

What the principal was trying to say was that it meant that work could not proceed because the auditors were present.

From his perspective as he worked with them, it was a story that could not help but sharpen his nerves.

Knowing that, the principal continued with a bitter smile.

“That’s why I need your help. “You need to take care of this.”

-You have to explain the situation to me accurately so I can do it or not!

“…There was a report that they received a favor.”

-what…?

“okay. I know it’s absurd. Because you are closer to them than anyone else. But there was evidence. “It was hard to believe because they were the ones you raised, but I have evidence in my hands that reveals the circumstances.”

Saying that, the principal brought out new documents and showed them to him.

There, everything the Board of Audit and Inspection had done so far and the wealth they had received were written in detail.

Even the time was written down accurately, so it would be hard to just deny it.

-I can’t believe it… Huh. You’re not the kind of person to say something like this without checking.

The man’s face was a complex mixture of various emotions.

The emotion quickly disappeared for a moment and returned to its original expressionless expression.

-As long as there is evidence, you can’t just deny it. I understand why you asked for my help. This is something that our audit department cannot ignore. I will definitely complete the work with a certificate of appreciation.

Certificate of Appreciation from the Royal Audit Department.

The reason the vice principal was afraid of the principal was because his friend was the auditor general.

No matter how many auditors you try to persuade, all it takes is a single gesture from the auditor, who is your superior.

That’s why I was as careful as possible.

“Thank you. “It must have been a difficult decision.”

-It’s not easy. I was sorry that I couldn’t help you in any way, even though I saw right next to you how much trouble this had caused you. I can help you in this way. I’m very happy.

“Thank you for your words.”

-But where did you get that information? We had a hard time finding it too. Aren’t these things that even the underworld guys couldn’t find easily?

“There was a helper.”

-aid?

“Just know that. Then I will trust you and leave it to you.”

-I know. My direct reports will probably arrive by tomorrow. Just hand them the data and the guys.

“Thank you.”

-And you can handle the vice principal yourself. They say I do the work of the Board of Audit and Inspection. Isn’t that your job?

“Thank you for your concern.”

-What is between us? If you need anything, tell the kids. I will tell you to cooperate as much as possible.

“I understand.”

The light from the crystal ball disappeared.

And then came the silence.

The principal put the documents sent by his friend to the auditors back in the box.

It’s been a long time since I looked forward to tomorrow this much.

***

The golden calf that I had only heard about.

Gold bars, jewelry, fancy accessories… even a heavy money bag.

In front of me was a long table full of riches.

“Whoop… Whoop…!”

Beside him, Mahol, who had been robbing the vice principal’s office safe, was breathing heavily.

My first theft.

It was a different reaction from when they attacked the group.

At that time, his eyes were full of life, but now Mahol’s eyes were a mixture of excitement and pleasure rather than life.

I ignored Mahol and rummaged through my belongings.

“How much is this?”

Honestly, I didn’t know there would be this many.

Thousands of gold at most?

However, if you put a price on the things here, thousands of gold would sound like hundreds of millions.

This would be equivalent to the country’s monthly income.

It has been over 10 years since the vice principal took office at the academy.

In the meantime, he must have betrayed many nobles and merchants.

This amount may be natural.

Merchants and nobles who were unable to send their children to prestigious families would have wanted to send their children to the academy even if it meant incurring great losses.

‘Because if you graduate from the academy, you can become a knight.’

The royal family offered the status of baronet or knight to those who successfully graduated from the academy.

So, in order to send your child to the academy, you must have asked the vice principal with tears in your eyes.

Since the principal is not visible, he must have given the vice-principal a lot of money as a favor.

‘The target person’s children must have also joined.’

When I think about it, I could see that the wealth here was rather small.

Just looking at the taxes paid by merchants, they account for 30% of the country’s taxes.

Amazing, Great.

There was a lot that could be done with this amount of money.

There were a few ideas that still came to mind.

but.

“There are only things that need to be washed before they can be used.”

Except for gold coins, I couldn’t use them right now.

Because it was all stolen property.

If you sell or use this carelessly, the original owner may appear and cause trouble.

So, although it may be a waste, it is better to give these to William.

‘If his power grows, it will benefit me as well.’

William would use these wisely.

We can increase our power and increase our influence in the underworld.

As he grows up, it helps me too.

Since I helped him, he will follow me better and the scope of what he can do will increase.

I put the rest of my belongings, except the money bag, into a magic bag, thinking I would give it to him tomorrow.

And he left the money bag containing hundreds of gold to Ellis.

“Good work.”

“no. “It’s not that difficult.”

“Use this to buy something delicious with your brother. “Buy some clothes.”

“thank you!”

Before, whenever I tried to give him money, Mahol refused. Now I receive money without rejection.

Even if I didn’t have to refuse, I knew that this amount of money didn’t mean much to me.

From then on, he never refused to give me money.

I just thanked him and used the money to have a good time with my younger brother.

Seeing this made me feel happy and had the side effect of giving me more money.

A day later, the academy was in great turmoil.

The vice principal walked around the academy screaming, and new auditors came to the academy.

“Hans Luther. “I will arrest you for solicitation and misconduct.”

They arrested the auditors who had arrived as soon as they entered the academy.

“What are you doing!”

“I never did that!”

They denied it, but they had already been disqualified from being members of the Board of Audit and Inspection.

There was no one who would listen to what they said.

The people who captured them were direct troops who only acted on the word of thanks.

‘I like it.’

As I watched them being arrested, I felt someone scratching my back that I couldn’t reach.

I feel refreshed.

I can’t tell you how happy I am that the principal lived up to my expectations.

“Then now I am. “Is it okay to go to the vice principal?”

The auditors’ job was settled.

Now they will be taken to the royal court, their crimes will be uncovered one by one, and they will rot in prison for the rest of their lives.

So now I just have to deal with the vice principal one-on-one.

With that in mind, Ellis approached me as I headed toward the vice principal’s office and said,

“young master. They say he has been stripped of his position as vice principal and is being held in solitary confinement.”

“Oh yeah?”

I really like the principal’s actions.

Unable to hide my laughter, I headed to the cell where the vice principal was locked up.
