There were several disturbances on the day of the presentation, yet the classes at Stella Academy continued as usual.

"Professor Maizen is not feeling well, so I'm filling in for her."

Since Professor Maizen was absent, another alchemy professor stepped in to take her place.

'I wonder how it'll turn out. Maizen fully awakened in the eighth episode and caused a rampage in the academy, causing great damage.'

'Did my influence cause that episode to be pushed forward? I hope at least it's manageable.'

Baek  yu-seol thought to himself.

Alterisha hadn't come to the academy either. She was probably being happily tormented by the alchemists by now.

On the other hand, Baek Yu-Seol was at ease.

Despite being the co-author, Alterisha had publicly claimed the work as her own.

'The general public wouldn't know, and only the people that should know would know.'

Baek yu-seol thought.

Not only because it becomes bothersome, but the main reason was that his attention couldn't be diverted.

As an alchemist, he was utterly useless. All credit and recognition belonged to Alterisha alone.

Yes, this man baek yu-seol, called himself useless, since he wasn't really helping her when they were solving it.

Because of his deliberate efforts, hardly any rumors involving him circulated among the students.

This was all thanks to Alterisha's name being plastered across the front page of every newspaper.

"Hey, have you heard? You know Assistant Alterisha, right? She's the author of the Alchemical Engineering Cross Technique. I heard she solved that age-old problem."

One of the students said.

"Yeah, I also heard it. It was a 300-year-old unresolved mystery."

Another one said

"But I heard there's also a co-author?"

Another one asked.

"They deliberately kept the identity undisclosed. I wonder why."

Another one wondered the himself.

"Well, it's probably because they must be extremely ugly, right?"

A female student said.

But little did they know, they were directly insulting baek yu-seol himself, the most handsome and the strongest student in the academy.

"Ahaha, no way!"

Another female said.

Like that, he could quietly spend his days at the academy as usual.

"That's it for today's class."

After the substitute professor finished the lecture, Baek Yu-Seol stepped out of the classroom. Nearby, a few students spotted him and hesitantly approached.

"Um... You're Baek Yu-Seol, right?"

One of the students asked as they approached him

"Yeah. Why?"

Baek yu-seol asked as he looked at them.

Although he was usually treated as invisible, why were they pretending to know him?

"Well, if you're hungry, would you like to have lunch together?"

Asked the students.

They were only asking him cause of his popularity and his connection to Alterisha.
