chapter 17
5-2. Spirits represent people’s emotions.
At some point, the two of us were seated together. Nex, who seemed happy, even paid for the drink.
As expected, chocolate drinks are the best. I can’t eat anything bitter.
“Ah, thank you.”
“My insides are all cool. Are you picky? Ha ha ha!”
A man with purple hair put a shoulder strap on me.
To be honest, I was worried that it might fail. The back is a bit uncomfortable, but it’s probably better than the crown prince route.
“Nex.. No matter how bad it is to curse at ten girls.”
“Char, you are a person who wakes up the spirits with real love and wants your son to get married through convenience. Hear some bad words.”
“That’s right, but…”
The black-haired nun spoke with concern for Nex, and he scooped out the remaining ice in her glass and chewed it.
A lot. Hard. A sound rang out.
“I don’t like that either. Prince Aureus.”
“Just call me Nex. Junior! I’m in the second grade!”
“Thank you.”
As I chimed in, a foxy smile appeared on Nex’s lips.
“Your name is Licht, are you in first year?”
“Yes. Senior Nex.”
“I don’t know how a guy like this got into the academy. It’s amazing.”
“I hear a lot that it is a bit peculiar.”
I laughed a little because it was absurd. It’s something I’ve heard a lot in the gaming community before.
‘How can a guy like this like a saint?’
I like people, do I need a reason? As of now, I don’t know. If you twist it, you’ll have to develop your skills and come back.
At that time, as I was drinking, Nex asked me a question as if I was curious.
“But why did you suddenly curse at the head of household? Junior?”
“..Do you want to be friends with seniors from the old days? “
“Father is good. Junior.”
Actually, Nex is a suppressor in .
Rivals who fight and derail players when they try to create a harem.
A character who looks like a flirt will stop the player’s self-righteousness.
Love is a contradictory emotion, so the producer of the first episode left an interview saying that the character was formed that way.
Unlike the sequel, the original work basically only supported 1:1 dating.
‘In the game, when we first met, the saintess said that she didn’t seem like a bad person after seeing Nex.’
If I hadn’t been her, wouldn’t I have lost her heart to her other heroines and be broken badly by Nex?
..No, I don’t think I even started playing the game in the first place. Seeing that, a word suddenly flashed through my mind.
“Seniors, do you know that there is no nameless saint?”
As I remembered, let’s ask someone who is a priest. I asked a nun named Chartines about our saint’s whereabouts.
“..? Are you a saint? I don’t have anything to say?”
“Hmm.. Where is the idiot who asks that of a second-generation saint, junior?”
“Yes?”
My brain couldn’t accept the result. As far as I know, the first saintess was someone else, and the next one was a saintess with wolf ears.
It felt like cold ice had been put on the back of my head.
“What do you mean by that? Perhaps the second generation saintess…”
“Right. Saint Mary of Chartines right in front of your junior.”
“Nex. She told me not to call him by that name.”
“Sorry, I made a mistake. I am also surprised.”
St Mary. I’ve heard of it somewhere, but my situation was too urgent to recall anything.
Isn’t the second generation her?
I broke out in a cold sweat. I couldn’t breathe. Are there any possibilities in this situation?
‘Something is twisted. Think.’
A noble position chosen by the god of light in the first place.
“Really… The 2nd generation saintess?”
“Yeah, didn’t you know Char was so pretty? It deserves it.”
“Nex, stop talking nonsense!”
“Oh, ah! Don’t hit me with divine power! Char!”
There is no such thing as a saintess being replaced by someone else. She tapped the table with her fingers.
Her credence to her now is probably because I misunderstood her as her second generation. Her stomach was tight.
‘Roll her head. There’s no way she’s dead. Because the in-game screenshots were like that. The rewards in the status window are still the same.’
He kept swallowing dry saliva. She tasted bitter.
‘A supporting role is not an extra. When she attends the academy, something will come out for sure. She even possessed games, but there is no point in vain.’
Breathed the air again. I almost became emotional in the moment. She could not have known how many generations she was as she was unidentified.
Because I didn’t know about the character Chartines. And she is a saintess with wolf ears who has a lot of rice cakes.
“Oh, I must have mistaken you for a person. Sorry.”
She chewed her tongue. No matter how much I think about it, if only she is involved, it becomes too fragile. To the extent that it interfered with attacking the grand route.
“Are you okay? Junior? Her hands are shaking.”
“Oh, really. Junior. Can you heal me?”
“It’s okay. I know a good healer.”
If you think negatively, there is no limit. At that time, you should swing your sword. Healing is not possible with this body anyway.
“..I will stand up. The time for the morning lecture is coming soon.”
“Ah, junior Licht, be careful!”
I felt a little dizzy. If the second generation of her saints did not know her, it meant that she was safe. She doesn’t have to worry.
“Junior. Wait a minute.”
I managed to lead my staggering body.
At that time, a man with purple hair called me and stopped me.
“Yes? What are you doing?”
“Come on, the protection of the Phoenix. Go be careful. You look really tired.”
Nex patted her on the shoulder.
“Tits.”
A purple sparrow hovered over my head once. In the game, it was the ability to relieve fatigue. Certainly, spirits are good too.
“See you next time. Black Knight junior.”
He was waving his hand loudly at me. I could see the worry hidden in Nex’s foxy smile.
“..See you later.”
I just ran towards the classroom. My steps became a little lighter.
***
I ran into a group of warriors while sprinting like that.
“Uh, Licht.”
“Why? It’s not late yet.”
“Mister Helm! Hi!”
“I thought it was late and ran, but it wasn’t.”
Something like that happened. His neck was glistening with sweat. It’s better now
“Did you enjoy your meal with Miss Ariel?”
“..Can’t you see it?”
“I ate with Mardol!”
“Yes.”
It must have been caught by the crown prince. Kynell, you and I are alike today. I felt sorry for a comrade who went through the same situation.
The red-haired wizard opened his mouth.
“Have you all thought of special skills? What about Kai?”
“Shouldn’t I do something related to light?”
“Already there.”
“Professor Dennis knows my situation, so wouldn’t it be okay?”
Yellow, who seemed to have a plan, and I, who seemed to be a little bit annoyed, answered. When will Mardol be friends with Ariel again?
Are you okay? Fortunately, since I’ve been talking about it in the club, it won’t rain F’s on my report card.
Someone looked at me as I was so relieved.
“Licht, swordsmanship.”
“If you push that as your specialty, other people will believe it. Thanks for the advice.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“How do you understand that? Mr. Pugu…”
The glass knight nodded slightly, as if satisfied. He is somewhat easy to know.
“This is my specialty.”
I figured out how to talk about a human called lupus. Game strategy begins with familiarity with patterns. Even if it’s different from the second part, I’m used to this much.
“So, what is the cake in Mr. Kaynell’s hand?”
“Oh, this, this? I bought it to eat.”
“Really? Don’t you hate sweets?”
“Licht, how did you know that?!”
Of course I know. Because Cainel was a character who tried to eat something sweet while marrying Ariel.
The scene of eating a chocolate-covered crepe with a frown on his face stood out. Looking at it this way, Also had good parts.
“Isn’t that the bakery? Kai, did you really buy it for me?”
“Ariel?! Uh, uh… Yeah. That’s true.”
“Thank you! Let’s eat this together after lunch!”
“..Okay, let’s do that.”
As expected, a smart red cat. Before he could make an excuse, he found the hero holding his back. Singing his hum, I picked up the box of strawberry cakes.
“It’s a little cold. I must have even used freezing magic!”
“We didn’t do this kind of thing in our rural village. The empire is a bit different though..”
“A good house.”
The blonde haired guy’s face was red. We like each other if we are honest like this. Why do tsundere things that don’t work well these days?
“Richt, see you during this practice session.”
“As much as you like.”
He was looking at me and swearing revenge,
[Kynel♡Ariel 24% ‘NEW!!’]
I laughed at the text on the status window.
At times like this, it’s good to be fast again.
***
When we arrived at the classroom, Dennis took out a sphere in which several magic circles were condensed in one hand and teleported all of us using it.
“Huh? Wow… Isn’t that a teleport magic?”
“This must be expensive? Oh, this was the academy.”
“It’s amazing.. I’ve never seen anything like this before.”
“Is it because of that magic circle? If you do that, the circuit will be twisted.. Is it because you are a professor?”
Sudden movement, as if the set of the stage had changed.
Other students, including me, were dumbfounded.
‘The main character is different.’
I thought I would learn the three-dimensional magic circle right away. I was honestly skeptical.
In , He said that he was enlightened while studying, so there should be no contradiction.
“Today, as previously announced, use your special skills to defeat the training slimes behind you.”
He gestured toward the slimes he had spaced out across the wide field.
“Unusual swordsmanship, twisted magic, unique spirits, weapons made with divine power. Whatever it is, it doesn’t matter.”
“Everyone proceeds with a relative evaluation, and one slime is given to each individual.”
“If you catch it fast, you get extra points.”
“Then, now the actual battle begins. Gentlemen… No, students.”
No sooner had he finished speaking, the other students headed to the slime for a mock battle.
“Then, I will go this way. May you all be strong.”
“Mister Helm! See you later!”
“I won’t lose to you today. Wait and see Licht.”
After briefly saying goodbye to the party, I approached one of the slimes for evaluation.
Then, a cube-like barrier unfolds. It was a type of protective magic circle.
Oh, this feels like a real 1v1 training ground.
“It’s been a while.”
A wall in the training ground that you often see in games. It must have been magic that came down from the academy.
I looked at the bouncing green monster.
“For training.. Slime..”
I was disturbed today, so a random thought came to my mind. The state is not zero.
“..I can forget about it now.”
A slime with a red core in its wriggling center. An evaluation monster that gets stronger the more it divides.
I have a memory related to this.
Unexpected events.
After the wedding of the warrior and the wizard in . It reminded me of the nameless saintess who suddenly disappeared from her seat.
If the player heads directly to her training ground near her, she can find her running away.
To be honest, the save load was incredible. Because I’m not the kind of person who disappears for no reason.
A woman sat down and sobbed while keeping her training slime away.
[Mr..? How is it….]
Because of the barrier, it’s originally a place where no one except the person concerned sees it. He wiped away the tears he had shed and showed a nonchalant attitude.
I wish I could have acted well like Nex.
[..The story of the nameless person seems to be forgotten.]
The saintess’ expression was drawn in her mind as she touched her long gray hair and smiled. A platinum wolf who lies with moistened eyes.
[Seeing the wedding of Mr. Cainel and Ms. Ariel, I am envious.]

Desperately trying not to be discovered that he watched the characters around him become happy with sad eyes.
From To , There was no such thing as her happy end.

Did he really stay here?
“Ha.”
I let out a sigh. Her chest was tight. Unpleasant feeling of being squeezed. Are you unhappy somewhere in part 3? Would I cry alone again? I was worried.
[It’s been like this before, but I’m disqualified as a saint.]
“…”
I had to get rid of her negative thoughts.
She pulled her sword from her scabbard. Kagak-. The silvery steel screaming while doing it. It was on the verge of collapsing.
[If other people become happy, I should be satisfied with that.]
Perhaps the saintess felt the same way at the time.
“Four meals.”
The hand holding the sword became heavier than ever. My helmet reflected on the blade. Maybe it’s an angry expression on the inside.
He kicked the ground hard. The wind began to gather in one place. Wind pressure blowing with the right hand. What that means is that it is a trick to create swordsmanship with physical force alone, regardless of distance.
Shinki focused on cutting power.
The essence of Drake style swordsmanship.
The fourth reinterpretation of the wolf king Locke.
Muscle power is replaced with technique, and lack of strength is made up for with technology.
[Because not everyone can be happy. Knight.]
An unforgettable scent of roses weighed on me.
Still,
It’s okay to be happy once in a while, right?
There was a little too much emotion.
「The empty space.」
The gathered air was shot out like an explosion. A natural phenomenon and will created to slash the dragon in front of you regardless of the distance.
It will be difficult to stop even with magic.
Permeability goes up and down!!

Dust rose and the protective barrier burst like slime.
***
─ Clink!!
The sound of the protection magic being broken by the black knight’s swordsmanship rang through the training ground.
A sharp noise, as if dozens of windows were shattering.
It was a long mess in the shape of a fan, as if a bomb had fallen. If anyone sees it, they will say that it was using wind magic or an aura to shoot out sword energy.
“Kyaaa!!”
“What, what happened!”
“Has the typhoon passed?”
“Is it magic? But why is the protective barrier broken? No way..”
A gust of wind passed by, swallowing the slimes. Students were not harmed. It was a strange wind that avoided people as if it was aiming for it.
“That’s toward Licht.”
Kinel groaned at the sight of the broken and fallen trees and the slime fragments that had lost their shape flying in all directions.
I knew that Licht was stronger than him, but this was different.
‘Looks like he couldn’t control his strength.’
Looking at the stretched scar, he thought softly. He is a body that has learned the sword as a hero himself. He knew how he wielded the iron.
A rough and rugged shape, as if surrendered to emotion.
It has been strange since the morning.
It wasn’t the restrained sword he used to wield. Didn’t he come running in a cold sweat as if he had seen a ghost?
“Kai, what is this?”
“Uh. Ariel? Did you come out of training too?”
“Yes. Did Mr. Tugu do this..?”
A girl with red hair approached him as he put together various situations like a puzzle. Seeing her surroundings in the same mess, she was tinged with shock.
“I guess that’s how it is. Except for Richt, there is no one with this level of ability.”
“Isn’t it almost like a sword master..?”
“..Maybe.”
“Impossible.. They say they can’t even use magic..”
Since it was a technique that blocked his own Shine Strike, I could understand it. It doesn’t cost mana.
The blonde-haired warrior had an expression that tasted the absurdity. When I looked for the black helmet, he was already apologizing to Professor Dennis.
“Professor, that… I’m sorry. I don’t know how fast I should catch the slime.”
“Good result. It’s not dragon kill, but this is also ‘extreme’.”
“..I made a mistake.”
“Cheer up, no one is hurt anyway. My reserve assistant.”
A black knight trembling while bowing his head to a man with shining white eyes.
“I don’t go to graduate school..”
“You can graduate faster if you take the bachelor’s and master’s degree program. Mr. Richt.”
“I still hate it. Professor Dennis.”
The clothes are plain, so he looks like a theater actor.
‘People can make mistakes. Still, it seems that they evaded people from the start.’
Kinel liked this part of Licht. It’s not like they just run wild believing in their own strength.
It must have melted into swordsmanship because something bad happened.
***
“Did I lose…?”
Around the time Yellowy next door was immersed in such thoughts.
The distant glass knight looked at the scoreboard and muttered.
She was relieved to know that she caught her slime the fastest, but she left the training ground late.
The surroundings had already become a mess. And she saw the words floating in the air.
[1St Place: ….]
[2Nd Place: Mardol.]
The name of a man at the top level.
‘Licht.’
Fine suffered defeat for the second time in his life.
