BXBX NOVEL Chapter 35: Meryl’s Research
Chapter 35: Meryl\'s Research
A classroom at the Magic Academy.
I was teaching as a part-time instructor.
The classroom was as full as ever. All the students were listening intently to the class. Irene, Norman, and the other teachers were also standing and watching the class.
But...
Meryl was nowhere to be seen in her seat.
That\'s strange...... we went to the academy together. If she\'s going to skip out, she\'s going to slack off in her seat, and she\'s going to do it with dignity.
Hmmm. I\'m starting to get a little worried.
Maybe I\'ll go check it out during the next break.
It was when I was thinking about it.
「It\'s done? It\'s finally complete!」
Rumble!
(T/N: Raw: ガラッ!)
The door to the classroom was thrown open and reveal Meryl who seem to be in a good mood.
She has a big smile on her face.
「Meryl. Where have you been?」
「Ufufu... I\'ve been cooped up in the lab all day. Experiment, experiment, and experiment again. I\'ve been wandering around in a dark tunnel.」
Speaking of which...
Meryl is a special student and has been given her own laboratory.
She had been holed up in that lab until now.
「But I\'ve finally finished my research! Ta-da! This is my masterpiece as a wise woman!」
What was held up was a clear flask.
Inside was a peach-colored liquid.
I wonder what it is.
Looking at it makes me feel strange.
「Is this the masterpiece developed by Meryl?」
「Yeah. With this medicine, my long-cherished dream will come true ~ ?. Fuhehe. Just thinking about it making me grin.」
「I don\'t really get it, but it must be something amazing.」
Meryl has made many groundbreaking inventions in the past.
Magical devices are one of them.
This time, it is something that will revolutionize people\'s lives.
「Meryl. Try using that invention!」
「We want to be witnesses to history!」
Her classmates were curious about the inventions of Meryl, the so-called wise woman. The classmates seemed to be interested in Meryl\'s inventions.
「That\'s right. I think it\'s a good idea to show it off in front of everyone. It\'s more exciting for me too?」
It seems that Meryl has decided to show off her invention here.
Normally, I should be in a position to stop this, since we are in the middle of a class, but....... The students seem to be curious, so I\'ll tolerate it.
「So, what\'s the use of that liquid?」
「You see... It\'s activated by touching the user\'s blood.」
Meryl responded.
「Nnya... It\'s been a long time. It took a long time for this day to come. But if I use this, I\'ll be even happier than I already am...」
She began to spin around on the spot, as if she was in a very good mood.
She taps and dances.
It was probably because she was completely careless. The flask in her hand flew into the air as she tripped over the step at her feet.
「Ah......」 By the time Meryl said that, it was too late.
The flask fell to the floor and cracked.
The liquid inside spread out.
And when it touched the blood that I had dripped earlier to demonstrate the magic circle, it began to glow with a pinkish glow.
「Ah?!」
Meryl let out a shout.
「Me, Meryl!?」
「It was supposed to be triggered by my blood. Of all the things I could have done, It reacted to papa\'s blood and triggered it!」
「Is that a bad thing?」
「If you ask me whether its bad or not...」
The next moment...
The peach-colored liquid turned into a mist and sprayed all over the classroom.
Her classmates are enveloped by the fog. Irene and Norman, too. I thought I was in a daze for a while.
Powaa......
(T/N: Raw: ポワーッ……。sfx for the mist I guess)
A heart appeared in their eyes.
(T/N: The old school aphrodisiac/love potion stuff.)
「Kaizer-sensei~」
「Kaizer-san」
「Kaizer......」
Everyone in the classroom was giving me the hot eye.
I was horrified.
I felt a huge affection that I couldn\'t accept.
「Meryl, this is......?」
「They all fell in love with papa in the mist. I\'ve developed a powerful spray-on aphrodisiac.」
「Aphrodisiac!?」
「A, ah. I thought I could papa head over heels. I thought we would be more lovey-dovey than ever.」
(Note: メロメロ like Boa Hancock devil fruit, Mero-mero no mi from One Piece)
「…………」
「Kaizer-san......!」
Suddenly I was pushed down to the floor.
The one on top of me was Irene.
「I...... can\'t think of anything but you...... Kaizer-san...... how many children do you and I want to have......?」
「Eeh?!」
This is bad
The normally intelligent girl had completely lost all sense of reason. The top of her uniform had been pulled down, revealing her underwear. They were white.
「Irene-sensei! Please come to your senses!」
「Kaizer!」
「Norman-sensei!?」
「You and I are soul mates! We are spiritually connected! But to deepen our friendship even further, let\'s connect physically!」
「What are you talking about?」
「Kaizer. You\'re the tiger! I\'ll be the cat!」
(T/N: I don\'t get what does this mean)
「What are you talking about?」
「Kaizer-sensei!」 「Kaizer-sensei!」
The students came at me like an avalanche.
Every single one of them has lost their mind.
It also seems they are more powerful than usual.
I looked over at Meryl.
If Meryl was addressed by an aphrodisiac mist - wouldn\'t her fondness for me go out of control and cause terrible things to happen?
That\'s the kind of thing that can destroy an entire school.
But...
She was smiling and enjoying herself as always.
「Meryl! Are you all right?」
「I have always love papa very, very, very much? Being addressed by an aphrodisiac now won\'t change that at all.」
Meryl said with a smile.
Do you usually carry this crazy fondness in your heart......? And yet you are able to be normal without losing your reason.
I felt a chill run down my back.
