On how PhDs become human evil

Bai Jie: Oh no, my image of being a virtuous and upright person is gone.

Section 536, Chapter 35: The Back-to-School Rush

The beach trip ended after two days. It wasn't that Bai Jie didn't want to continue, but rather that school was starting in Academy City.

Although it's just a nominal position, Bai Jie is still a teacher at Tokiwadai, and he'll have to go back when school starts. Besides, there's Misaka Mikoto, a proper middle school student, so it's even more important for him to go back; Tokiwadai's school rules are very strict.

Incidentally, although Accelerator is a student, he's only nominally enrolled in the computer lab; he doesn't even know how long it's been since he last attended a class. However, given his status as the top brain in Academy City, there's not much to learn even if he went to school; in fact, the teachers' knowledge isn't as good as his.

Despite being both espers, Accelerator and Misaka Mikoto are vastly different.

Since their beach trip was over, Rhodes Island couldn't stay in this world any longer and had to return to Gensokyo. Although staying wouldn't be a problem, there would definitely be a lot of problems later on. In order not to cause trouble for Bai Jie, Amiya declined Bai Jie's offer to stay and took Rhodes Island back with her.

In addition, Huang, Warfarin and a few others seemed to want to cause trouble for Bai Jie, saying that since others were cutting in line, why couldn't they get ahead in one step? Their tone was full of sourness, and their eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred when they looked at Kellysa. Unfortunately, they were ruthlessly suppressed by Amiya in the end.

Amiya: Are you kidding me! Even I, the big sister of Rhodes Island, haven't succeeded yet, so don't even think about sneaking away!

As for Kellysa, after a friendly exchange with Skadi, she seemed to understand Bai Jie's situation to some extent. However, what made Bai Jie somewhat uncomfortable was that this princess didn't seem to care much about matters between men and women, and the next night she even came to Bai Jie's room and said she wanted to sleep with him.

What a carefree princess! Are all British people this open-minded? I love it... Pshaw! Love it my foot!

----------------------

Today is September 1st, the first day of the new school term in Academy City.

Inside the gymnasium of Tokiwadai Middle School, the students of Tokiwadai stood in formation like soldiers, holding their opening ceremony. On the stage at the front of the gymnasium, the principal of Tokiwadai was giving a long speech.

The teachers, on the other hand, stood in a line against the wall.

Yawning, Bai Jie rubbed his eyes: "Is it still not over? Does the principal talk for that long? It's been almost five minutes."

“It seems you really dislike this kind of talk.” Kellysa, standing next to Bai Jie, was quite surprised.

"Isn't that obvious? Spending so much time talking about useless, common-sense nonsense, what else can it do besides help you fall asleep?"

When Bai Jie was studying at Victoria, he hated this kind of speech. In his opinion, it was just the principal repeating what he had said many times before. In fact, Bai Jie once conducted an experiment. He recorded the opening speeches of the principal of Victoria Guard Academy for two consecutive years and conducted a comparative experiment.

Finally, he was astonished to discover that his opening remarks for the two years were exactly the same! Not a single word had changed!

It's like a broken record!

Victoria Guard Academy is a four-year school, and Bai Jie skipped the opening ceremony for the last two years. This time is no different; if it weren't for the fact that absence would result in a pay cut, Bai Jie would never have come.

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect you to become a teacher too. Aleister, you really know how to do that."

A day earlier, Bai Jie asked Aleister to arrange an identity for Kellysa. To Bai Jie's surprise, Aleister actually arranged for Kellysa to work at Tokiwadai Middle School as an English teacher.

Aleister really has a clever idea: to have the second princess of England teach English.

With a smile, Kellysa said, "Being a teacher is a great experience. It might even be helpful for my future governance. After all, a teacher is the king of the 'class' country, right? They are in a position of power."

Do you have some misunderstanding about the teaching profession?

After making a brief comment about Kellysa's idea, Bai Jie sighed, "Well, as long as you don't cause any trouble, it's fine. I don't want to suffer again when I go back to Academy City. Long live peaceful life."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Kellysa patted her chest confidently.

————————————————————————

Noon, canteen.

After finishing his two classes in the morning, Bai Jie arrived here on time to have lunch—of course, the cheapest nutritious meal at Tokiwadai.

Just as Bai Jie sat down at a window seat with his lunch, ready to eat, Shirai Kuroko suddenly rushed into the restaurant in a flustered manner and blurted out a sentence to Bai Jie—

"Ape-like teacher! You actually got the new teacher, Kellysa, pregnant?!"

"puff--!"

Bai Jie spat out the mouthful of rice he had just eaten.

"Where did you hear this news... Pshaw, it's a rumor!?"

"Ms. Kellysa said it herself in class!"

Is that princess an idiot?!

Bai Jie's current expression is strikingly similar to the famous painting "The Scream".

Slamming her hand on the table, Shirai Kuroko asked anxiously, "You really got Ms. Kellysa pregnant!?"

"Nothing serious happened! Don't believe everything she says! It was purely an accident between us!"

"You don't deny that you two have a relationship!" Shirai Kuroko seized on the key point. "How could you cheat on your husband while you were married? I really can't let my sister be around you—by the way, nothing happened between you and my sister during your trip to the beach, right?"

"How could that be? Misaka Mikoto has such a flat chest, and she's even wearing a children's swimsuit. What interest could I possibly have in her?"

What?! Shirai Kuroko's expression conveyed this meaning.

"Swimsuit... You actually saw Onee-sama's swimsuit... Ahhhhhh! Why didn't Kuroko go with her?! Onee-sama's swimsuit is a once-in-a-lifetime sight, and Kuroko just missed it!"

Thump—! Thump—! Thump—!

With each sentence she spoke, Shirai Kuroko's head would make intimate contact with the wall, the force of which made the cafeteria tremble. Surprisingly, despite such a powerful impact, Shirai Kuroko's head remained completely unharmed!

"Could this girl's head be made of iron?"

Bai Jie guessed.

But now is not the time to think about such things!

"Hey, Shirai, where's Kellysa?"

"Ahhh! Big sister!"

Shirai Kuroko is completely unruly; you could even call her a fanatical madwoman. Not seeing Misaka Mikoto's swimsuit has driven her completely insane.

And at that very moment—

"Found it! It's here!"

"Teacher Bai Jie!"

"The teacher is here!"

......

A large group of Tokiwadai students, all beautiful and charming, walked towards Bai Jie.

"Uh...you wanted to see me about something?"

"Um! We have a question for the teacher!"

Asking a question?

Bai Jie had a bad feeling.

Then--

"Excuse me, teacher, are you really dating Ms. Kellysa?"

Boom!

Bai Jie followed in Shirai Kuroko's footsteps and banged his head against the wall.

Section 537, Chapter 36: My Wife Gets a Free Gift

Nighttime, Bai Jie's house.

"Wow!"

Kellysa cried out in pain as Bai Jie threw her onto the bed.

What are you doing! Can't you be a little gentler with a lady?

"You call yourself a lady? What kind of lady talks about her first time like it's nothing, like it's just something to gossip about after dinner! You stinky woman!" Bai Jie said irritably. "Do you know how much those students with explosive curiosity questioned me today? Some even asked if I was two-timing them, and if I got that Misaka girl pregnant at the same time!"

"We only spent one night together, how did it turn into something so absurd?"

"Oh dear, but it's true that we had sex, right? Are you trying to deny it?" Kellysa rolled over and lay on her side on the bed, laughing. "But I didn't expect the rumors to spread like that. I really should control them. Even I don't want to hear tomorrow that I've become a slut."

"I don't think those rich girls in Tokiwadai would think of this. Also, your underwear is showing."

Kellysa quickly reached out and pressed down on her skirt, but then lifted it slightly: "Want to see?"

"Black lace has good taste, but I prefer pure white—why the hell are you taking your clothes off?"

"Didn't you say you liked white? I'll change into it now."

Bai Jie was speechless: "Are you out of your mind? You're a princess of a country, don't act so openly in front of a strange man like me, okay?"

“We’ve already slept together for a night, it’s too formal to call each other strangers.” Kellysa frowned in dissatisfaction. “Just as Skadi said, you’re heartless to women other than your wife, you have no gentlemanly manners at all.”

"Why should I be a gentleman to you?"

"...What a heartless and cold-blooded man. What am I and the baby in my belly supposed to do?"

Kellysa said, her eyes brimming with tears.

Bai Jie's expression remained completely unchanged: "Keep dreaming. My wife and I have been sleeping together for decades, and we only have two children. If you want my children, you'll have to wait at least several more decades."

"Shall we sleep together tonight?"

"Are you serious?"

Kelly smiled and extended her hands to Bai Jie.

Frustrated, Bai Jie scratched his head and leaned over to flick her forehead hard: "Although it's not a good thing for me to say, since you're a woman, you should cherish your body and not get involved with a man like me. Otherwise, your life will be ruined."

"Do you think I can leave you?" Kellysa said, rubbing her forehead. "After having sex with you and Skadi saying so many things about you... if we're being fair, I'd be considered your wife candidate, right? Have you ever seen a fiancée break up with her fiancé?"

"I have actually seen it before."

"...Are you really going to kill the conversation?"

"You're the one who started arguing with me, so stop making dirty jokes, okay?"

Bai Jie plopped down in the computer chair and turned to face the computer: "You said you wanted to take a good look at the situation in Japan, which is why I kept you here. You have two months. When the time is up, go back, and then we'll have nothing to do with each other."
