chapter 18
18. Looks like you need some training.
A sudden wind blew.
The heavy air gushes in response to the magician’s anger, shaking the hem of his clothes.
Originally, her golden hair, which was rare in the world, flutters in disarray at the foreshadowing of a storm.
Eris Betelgeuse.
The main heroine of ‘The Last Days’, and a strong character in the early stages with the alias of a star wizard.
Her aura was very firm, as if she had already prepared for a fight with me.
‘How should I do this?’
Should I stop time and gently caress you?
Or should we set up a separate seat and redefine our positions in a relaxed way?
Either way is fine, but as an adult, I had something to say.
I leaned over her with a friendly smile and looked down at Eris with her head far below.
“It’s good to fight, but shouldn’t you ask for your parents’ permission?”
“…… What?”
“If you’re not feeling well, wouldn’t your condition get worse if you heard that your daughter ran amok among the general public?”
“… ….”
The point that can increase the favorability of Eris Betelgeuse in the work is to give the special elixir obtained while progressing Episode 4.
Her parents are cursed with the highest level of curse due to a battle with evil wizards, and they need help.
She must have offset the curse to some extent because of her great skills, but even so, her energy must have suffered greatly.
She’s not going to die any time soon, but as a daughter, she’s bound to be very concerned.
In the meantime, I already know the location of the elixir that energizes me with mystical energy and clears my mana.
Originally, I was planning to deliver the elixir instead of Kenichi to form a relationship, but now that it came out like this, it wouldn’t be bad for me to give it myself.
He gave me kind advice while thinking about future plans, but Eris’ gaze changed as if something had touched her nerves wrongly.
“…… What did you just say?”
It feels like watching Cheolcheon enemy in the edification target.
As if it would kill me at any moment, the pupil’s bloody eyes gleamed.
Her magic power and the air around her also started to go wild in sync with the intense emotions.
…… What is this
I sent him a message of reconciliation so that we wouldn’t fight, but he seemed rather angry.
As a former adult, he calmly analyzed the situation and informed me with a kind smile.
Thinking that this is very difficult, he shamelessly scratched the back of his head.
“Hmm, are you sensitive to your parents’ worries? I was just worried in my own way, but it’s really embarrassing to see you so angry. Can we reconcile?”
“…… I will kill you.”
Hmm, it doesn’t seem to work.
Eris Betelgeuse raised her mana with a very angry expression.
Do you have the confidence to crush me before anyone else finds out?
Well, considering her skills and talents that she had reached early on, it wasn’t too wrong for her to make such casual judgments.
“But you are still immature.”
It seems that if you focus only on one thing, you don’t focus on anything else.
“You! What are you doing there!”
“…… !”
Eris, who was raising her mana to the fullest, turned her head away in surprise.
Following her voice, I moved my gaze and there was a middle-aged male teacher who was teaching, and since I didn’t know his face, I thought he was probably in charge of the upper grades.
In his eyes, we, facing each other in a secret alley behind the school building, seemed like young men and women burning hotly enjoying a tryst.
“These are just plain!”
They came to us with their twin wicks lit.
While threateningly slamming the textbook into the palm of my hand.
‘Should I run away?’
I thought about that for a while, but I just gave up because they both have very distinct characteristics.
Because the entire class already knew about a blonde super-girl with narrow eyes.
“hahahaha, I think you have a misunderstanding.”
I did my best to express my innocence.
***
Fortunately, the misunderstanding was quickly resolved, perhaps thanks to my good-natured expression and calm tone.
In reality, nothing had happened yet, and he was innocent.
However, the original conversation with Eris Betelgeuse was lost.
Sensei stormed in, the atmosphere of murder and so on was scattered, and Eris, who was the cause of the fight, seemed to be lost in thought.
As if thinking about something.
After that, we went back to class without much fighting.
I was perplexed that I would become known as a perverted man and woman for a moment, but I think it might have worked out at this level.
“After all, I like being peaceful.”
Then, Sento next to me looked at me with a strange expression, as if asking what bullsh*t he was talking about.
Kenichi in the front seat also suddenly turned his head and gave me a sidelong glance.
Why do these people not believe what they say?
I am so sorry for how peaceful and dedicated I am to humanity.
“So how did it go?”
Unfortunately, only Hotaru Ichinose asked me with an interesting expression.
“Was it a real confession? So you decided to go out?”
“Yes? No? Because the teacher came, the conversation was fuzzy-“
“Kyaa! Have you ever confessed? Should I tell you when we meet later?”
It seemed like we wouldn’t be dating, but he answered with a smile.
“Yes, I will tell you.”
I felt like I could feel the vicious gaze from the other side of the classroom, but I ignored it.
After that, I finished all my school classes and prepared to move on to the Shihei Mansion.
I didn’t have anything special to prepare, and I was waiting for Kenichi, whose cleaning shift was delayed due to leaving early the other day.
Hotaru Ichinose went first, saying he had business, and waited next to her shoe rack with Sento, who had an expressionless face, wondering if this was a mask or not.
She didn’t say anything for a while, then she threw it out of nowhere.
“…… So, what happened?”
“Yes?”
“I thought he was a wizard. When I got back to the classroom, I could feel the magic very little.”
“Oh, did you detect that? Be special, be special Her teachers and students are both great, so she seems to be improving her skills as the day goes on.”
Although I wasn’t a student directly teaching, it was worth arranging.
I nodded my head in satisfaction, but Sento Sawamura asked me one more time.
In a seemingly indifferent voice.
“So what did you say?”
“Um, it wasn’t a particularly meaningful conversation, but if you’re curious, I’m willing to let you know!”
“…… It’s okay.”
Sento answered with a snort, and after that, he waited for Kenichi without speaking.
“Ugh.”
As soon as I saw me waiting, I grabbed Kenichi, who freaked out, and headed straight to the train station.
You look happy just when I tell you to go first because it’s cleaning duty.
I felt sorry for Kenichi’s back as he suddenly lost his energy and trudged along.
“Hmm.”
As I walked down the street with no passers-by except for us, I said after a moment’s thought.
“Kenichi, do you want to rest today?”
“What? Rest of course… Rather than wanting to do it, I have to tidy up the house for a while, hahahahaha.”
I was trying to reveal my true feelings for a moment, but I made a decision after checking the awkward smile on him.
“Well then, let’s rest today.”
“I, really!”
“Yes, yes. I am a very honest person who has never lied.”
“… ….”
Kitagawa Kenichi hesitated for a moment, but smiled broadly.
“Well, very honest!”
It was a pretty good mask.
Listening to our conversation, I told Sento, who looked at Kenichi with pity.
“Ah, go to Sento-san first.”
“…… What?”
“I suddenly have a schedule, so I think I need to take care of it and go.”
At the sudden notification, Sento, who was frowning and thought deeply, answered right away.
“Yes.”
A very clever student.
On the other hand, there are bound to be some foolish students who only realize it when they experience it for themselves.
After letting them go, I gradually drifted toward a deserted road.
At the end of the bend, I saw an empty alley and a construction site.
It must have been that he was in the middle of construction and avoided the place, and the cement was still not fully hardened.
“Hmm, it’s hard to see people today.”
I murmured while scratching my cheek awkwardly with a smile on my face.
I thought I had escaped the poison, but somehow it seemed to be a bigger problem.
“This is really embarrassing.”
Again, it seemed like I had to get out of the classic crush route.
The moment I turned my wrist, a shadow came over me from a square.
It was the star wizard, Eris Betelgeuse, who opened a barrier to repel people and attacked me by surprise.
“──Die!!!”
Pajik-! I just felt her sadness as I watched her come running while unleashing her electric shock.
Why does the world only give me harsh roles?
Responded by pulling out the dagger in the sleeve.
“Looks like you need some training.”
I have no intention of stopping time.
What we need right now is education.
It was only to help the arrogant woman of her world perceive her harsh reality.
Pigjijik—!
The blue thunderbolt and the dagger collided.
