so as to

Lo que le gustaba del colegio era no tanto el estudio cuanto aquel modo totalmente nuevo de vida, más conforme con sus gustos que el que había llevado hasta entonces. Una vez más, lo que lo atraía era la novedad;
What he loved about school was not so much studying but its whole new way of life, more in tune with his tastes than the one he had lived so far.

Así que una vez transcurridos los demás segundos (nueve, diez, once y doce: 'Ya, no te preocupes, yo es que me he venido temprano a ver si termino uno mío', dije a mi vez, no tanto por explicarme cuanto a modo de disculpa tardía e implícita), cerré la puerta por fin, de un solo movimiento resuelto, casi raudo (el pomo no había llegado a soltarlo), y me retiré a mi despacho, que estaba contiguo y que compartía con Rendel, ella compartía con Mulryan el suyo.
And so once the remaining seconds had elapsed (nine, ten, eleven and twelve: ‘Oh, don’t worry, I came in early to see if I can finish a report of my own,’ I said in turn, not so much in order to explain myself, but more by way of a belated and implicit apology), I finally closed the door, with one resolute, almost hasty movement (I hadn’t let go of the handle), and withdrew to my office, which was next door and which I shared with Rendel, she shared hers with Mulryan.
