Chapter 169: Against the Seven Seas
The aftermath of the incident gradually subsided. This "coup" that lasted only 33 minutes, just like the countless secret meetings before it, disappeared quietly, like dewdrops after rain.
For ordinary magicians, it seems that there are just a few more details in the missions, and a slight change in the way of dealing with non-magicians... and other than that, there is an increase in salary.
But the underlying rules and influences will have long-term effects.
On the other hand, whether it is the newly established parliament or the "Magician Committee" and "Logistics Department" that have begun to take shape, there are currently a large number of vacancies.
On the one hand, the proportion of logistics personnel has indeed increased; on the other hand, the scale of work has increased as the work has been broken down, thus freeing up workstations.
But even so, when Qi Hai, who had just graduated, found Su Ze and expressed his future intentions, Chairman Su was still a little unresponsive -
"Nanami, are you saying... you want to work as a clerk?"
Su Ze thought he had heard it wrong, so he forced a smile to confirm with him.
One morning in October, Nanami, dressed in a light brown suit, stood in Su Ze's office and explained her purpose.
"Yes, Master...Senior."
In the end, Nanami listened to Su Ze's "plea" and did not call the chairman.
"If you just want to be a councillor or something... it won't interfere with your job as a sorcerer--" Su Ze tried to explain.
In Su Ze's idea of the composition of the parliament members, sorcerers should have occupied a considerable proportion -
"No, senior, I still know all this..." Qihai's deep voice sounded, gently interrupting Su Ze.
He pushed up the specially made pair of sunglasses that Huibara had given him a few years ago.
Su Ze looked gloomy and waited for his next words.
"I just suddenly realized..." Nanami said slowly.
"The Spellcaster is shit!"
Nanami, with a dignified and righteous look, stretched out a hand and shouted loudly.
A large "DOG SHIT!" banner seemed to be pulled open behind him.
Su Ze fell on the desk with a look of grievance.
Chairman Su, who was known for his foresight and tolerant attitude, burst into tears. The tears rolled over his nose, passed horizontally across his face, and soaked the table.
His chin rose and fell, his tone was hoarse: "...Is that so? I'm sorry, Nanami, the world of magic is not what you imagined -"
Chairman Su Ze, whose style has become a Q version, has tears in his eyes.
"...No, Senior, why are you doing this——"
Nanami was a little unsure for a moment.
Suze had never been the one to take the blame for anything that happened in the world of magic before, but just a few months after the incident, Suze's reform of the corrupt system was obvious to all...
"I'm sorry, Nanami, your senior is a useless person - he is not good at handling paperwork, and he doesn't understand the mediation and coordination of various forces -" Chairman Su, who was drawn in a Q-version style, had snot and tears all over his face, and his tone was trembling.
"...Senior, we haven't learned these things before. It's better to say that you can do this..." Nanami couldn't help feeling guilty and hurriedly tried to comfort him.
"I must have no charisma, so no one wants to work with me—"
Su Ze interrupted him rudely, tears in the corners of his eyes dangling and about to fall.
"…Senior, whether it's the 'committee' or the 'parliament', aren't you the nominal leader—" Nanami began to sweat on his forehead. He had realized that things were gradually developing in a strange direction.
"Ms. Kurokawa also said that I am just a mascot. I can't do anything practical. I just need to nod and wave--"
"Forehead……"
——In this regard, it seems that there is indeed nothing wrong with what Ms. Kurokawa said.
Nanami raised her eyebrows slightly in embarrassment, looking embarrassed.
Over there, Su Ze noticed his reaction and immediately howled like a wolf: "Look! You really think so too--"
"No, no! You're overthinking it!" Nanami tried to cover up in panic.
Chairman Su Ze seemed even sadder.
"Jie has also been suffering from mental damage and depression due to my negligence—"
Su Ze took the opportunity to wipe the water off his face, leaving it wet.
"...Haihara clearly said that you should tell him that there's nothing wrong with Senior Getsuyu..." Nanami was extremely embarrassed.
Su Ze looked like he was on the verge of collapse, with snot and tears all over his face.
"Last month, I broke a large branch of the two birch trees in front of the college. I haven't paid tribute to them until today. They have provided shade for the college for hundreds of years."
"I only like to eat rice dumplings with sweet fillings. Last year, I even secretly added half a bottle of mustard sauce to Wu's rice..."
...Is there something wrong with the style of painting?
Nanami no longer knew what to say.
Su Teji had no intention of stopping. "Last month, I secretly replaced the sandwiches in the Logistics Department restaurant with coconut flakes. I even told Miss Kurokawa who came to complain that it was Riko who replaced them..."
"Ah...?" Nanami's CPU was already smoking.
——But at least he understood why he didn't get to eat sandwiches when he came to the logistics department that day.
"I am truly a sinner through the ages—
Tears rolled back and forth in the corners of Su Ze's eyes.
Su Ze blurted out a long "Confession of Sins" in just a few minutes.
And he had no intention of stopping at all. He was almost as good as when he used Qi to scare the bullies in the upper grades in junior high school.
"…Senior, forget it. Please stop talking—"
Qi Hai was in excruciating pain, and his expression was probably similar to that of the monkey in the Dayan storybook who had heard the golden hoop curse.
However, Chairman Su Ze, who had been talking incessantly the previous second, fell silent instantly after hearing this.
The snot that had been hanging there for a long time was also sucked back in.
——This guy is also a veteran actor. As early as the moment Chairman Su opened his voice, it cooperated very well by sliding out of his nasal cavity and hanging on his lips; just like the tears that kept rolling in the corners of Su Ze's eyes but just wouldn't fall.
"Ok!"
Chairman Su nodded heavily, pretending to be like, "I'm just trying to control my emotions. If you provoke me again, I'll die in front of you."
Nanami-san was a little troubled and said, "I understand what you mean, but no matter what, the work of a sorcerer is still somewhat——"
"Nanami! When you come to the clerical job, you will find out... these jobs are even more shit!" Su Ze looked heartbroken.
"...Hmm." Nanami was silent for a moment.
He hadn't really considered this. If he was jumping from one shit pit to another...
Thinking about it this way, it seems even worse.
"No, actually, besides this, there is another reason..." Nanami said with difficulty.
Su Ze slightly controlled the emotion of Actor No. 1 on his lips and the emotion of Actor No. 2 in the corners of his eyes.
"Haiyahara..." Nanami hesitated, "His talent as a sorcerer is not outstanding—"
Su Ze said nothing.
He already knew that with Huihara's talent, her upper limit would most likely be a second-level magician. If she was lucky, she might be able to reach the quasi-first-level level.
——But that’s all.
