Appearance (5)

Slowly dying in the midst of intense studies.

Finally, a weekend-like weekend greeted me.

A Sunday with no tasks accumulating at a terrifying pace, and no Ersa calling me with a telecommunication order in the morning.

As soon as I woke up, I groaned leisurely, figuring out how to pass the lazy day.

It is certain not to leave the dormitory once.

What do you do if you escape the academy and get hit with a knife?

The fortress is very cluttered in the vicinity of the coming-of-age ceremony preparations.

Sylvia, who trespassed into my room silently as usual, brought the morning tea.

They say that they don’t like to drink something hot right after waking up, so there’s also cool water.

Is it a compulsion not to forget your hometown?

I was about to say something after a while, but when I saw her preparing to iron in the living room, I kept my mouth shut.

Next to the flat ironing boards were piled up with a refreshing smell.

Looks like I’ll be able to wear a neat shirt soon.

I was going to try it myself, but I didn’t dare because I was afraid I would burn the two shirts.

Fortunately, as if he did not throw away the gift of the White family, a cloak that blocks the cold is still hanging on the handle of the closet.

Medusha, who had just woken up, also rubbed her eyes when she smelled the unique hot smell of the iron.

“You’re an assassin, do you know how to iron?”

“The owner introduced me so grandly. In fact, as an assassin, I’ve only killed a wild boar or a deer.”

Sylvia shows off her skillful skills with a smile.

In fact, it is close to the main job.

Persia, who had just climbed onto the sofa, watched the ironing.

Medusha smiled contentedly and whistled.

“Now I can wear clothes that are not wrinkled.”

Do you have any parts on your clothes to iron?

While I was swallowing that pint glass down my throat.

A small-sized women’s school uniform was placed on a wooden board for ironing.

For some reason, Medusha returned to her original outfit at some point…

It was because I didn’t want to wear crumpled clothes.

I thought it was because it was a hot day again.

However, Sylvia, who was actually ironing Medusha’s school uniform, suddenly became troubled.

She closes her eyes slightly and mutters a small sigh as if exhaling.

“I thought you’d enjoy dressing your minions like this… I should have come a little sooner.”

“Medusha asked me to buy it.”

“Oh, if that’s the case…”

Sylvia finishes the ironing as if she’s not very suspicious.

Reaching out for a cup of tea and reminiscing about the taste of my hometown, I picked up the Persia on the sofa and shook it slightly.

The guy who was accustomed to our quarrels filled the room with cold air, screaming and crying.

“Louis. It seems like you did a good job visiting the ice and snow hell during the short break. How would you survive the summer without this guy…”

“I know.”

I sympathized with Medusa’s feelings, and after rolling around on the sofa, I went to lunch.

It’s a little bit like being locked up in the room all day, so when we visit the club room, Christine and Maria stand by without a doubt.

Sylvia greets her quite warmly as if she has been recognized as a member.

“Did you come even on the weekend?”

“Yeah. It’s a new building, so there’s an air conditioner… I can’t stay in the dormitory because it’s hot in the summer.”

As always, Christine greets with a droopy voice while sucking on tangerine rice cakes.

Because he is from the north, he is very weak in the heat.

When I ask a question with a small amount of doubt, I get an answer with a smirk.

“Anyway, there are a lot of ice-attributed summons, right? Winter foxes, ice ghosts…”

“Does everyone know how much magic power does anyone else have? Usually, summoners have to lie down for three days after using their S-Rank ultimate once. The world’s Michael Westwall also rested for a week after the last match.”

“ah…”

Looking at it like this, my magic power is at a really absurd level.

While Sylvia sitting next to her is making a proud expression for nothing.

Eolin, who had been taking her hat off for a long time, tilted her head.

“Isn’t the magic power not enough even after blowing out cold all day? That’s great. It’s a little inhuman?”

“Oh, not that much…”

“You don’t have to excuse me. I’ve seen Ersa take an interest.”

Maria and Christine are slightly surprised by the unexpected news.

I was sweating, wondering how Eolin knew that.

Soon, the professor reveals the secret like a kind magician.

“What are you surprised by this? All the stray cats inside and outside the academy are my eyes and ears.”

“Ugh.”

So that it doesn’t matter that Sylvia and I were so tense.

Eolin turned to the other side as if losing interest.

With that personality, he is doing well as a professor.

I sat down with a little admiration.

The napping is basically nothing, but it’s a little annoying to have a group of people like this idly.

Maria, feeling a little bored soon, suggested a simple game.

Say it with your body.

It is a game in which the questioner gives a suggested word and describes it as an action.

It’s a little childish for the children of the great aristocracy, but what about it?

When I actually tried it, it was more fun than I expected because I had a lot of brains.

After all, as long as there are as many like-minded people as this, it’s okay to do anything.

I spent the weekend happily reminiscing on the feeling I felt in my hometown mansion.

Still, it was a bit too much for Sylvia, who was given the suggestion of ‘fallen nobleman’, to point out at me, but…

I had a problem with it, too, so I didn’t say anything.

It was disgusting that Eolin, the author of the test, was joking around as if he was waiting.

It seems that they were targeting our reaction.

After talking to the point that other club rooms might come to protest, Maria was preparing to return to the dormitory, and Maria carefully asked about her future schedule.

“Next Wednesday is the coming-of-age ceremony for the Princess, right? Do you have any schedules at that time?”

“Oh, I’m out of it. It’s more convenient to just walk around alone.”

Eolin quickly lifts her front paws and falls out.

After all, as a cat, she will be able to roam the roofs and walls as she pleases.

It’s a little funny that we can’t do it because we’re so caught up in it.

Maria nodded her head lightly, as if she was not expecting much from the beginning.

“What about Lewis?”

“…can I go with you?”

“okay!”

I didn’t have any plans anyway, so I accepted it without hesitation.

Originally, I was going to go with Sylvia…

Even if it was the capital, I only knew about the academy.

Christine and Maria had one more year in the capital, so they would be better than me.

After making an easy appointment, having dinner and returning to the dormitory.

Sylvia, who arrived at my room before me and opened the door, muttered with a slightly confused expression.

“Mr. Maria seems like a good person. I’ve been taught that Westwall is the head of the family…”

“Actually, compared to a guy like Russell, I can’t even call him an enemy.”

No matter what I say with my mouth…

At the time of my mother’s death, the relationship between Westwall and our family was almost broken.

There is only moral responsibility.

Sylvia grumbled a little that I was too back.

“Still, it’s good that the other members are still on the lookout. Especially the old headman…”

“right.”

I replied roughly, but on the inside, I had a different thought.

After coming to this academy, my thoughts have changed a lot.

It is strange that the frog in the well went out and had no effect.

Anyway, I’m sure we’ll see the head of Westwall in person sooner or later.

I then decided to judge for myself and lay down on the sofa.

About 3 days after that.

I closed my eyes and realized it was the day of my coming-of-age ceremony.

I can barely remember Monday, but yesterday feels like it almost flew away.

In fact, it is because they were called around to help prepare for the coming-of-age ceremony.

Even though our academy is only the path the princess passes through.

Yesterday, I couldn’t do well in class because I was decorating the campus and preparing for the welcome event.

I wonder if the professors didn’t even give the assignments.

However, thanks to all the preparations yesterday, I am quite relaxed today.

The full-scale event starts around lunch, so the morning is completely free time.

It doesn’t seem like much, but it’s not necessarily the case.

Usually, the main purpose of these official events is to relieve people’s dissatisfaction and provide entertainment.

Therefore, the inside and outside of the academy were bustling with a festive atmosphere from early morning.

A procession of musicians and clowns filled the streets.

There was a strong smell of hot food everywhere.

At most, the napping students gathered in front of the school gate had to try their best not to be swept away by the crowd.

I looked for a relatively quiet place, but it was all there.

“Is this the only way I’ll be able to look around properly…”

“Don’t worry, follow me.”

Medusha was already worried.

Christine, who had summoned Justin to break through the crowd, took the lead and headed somewhere.

Eventually, she arrived at the bell tower near the academy.

It has already been automated and has no staff.

After having Justin break the big, hard lock, she opened the door to the bell tower and went inside.

Maria closed her eyes tightly, but did not stop them.

As we went up the narrow and steep stairs without stopping, we were rewarded for illegal intrusion.

A panoramic view of the capital city overflowing with people can be seen at a glance.

“Well, I found this place.”

“If you give up just a little bit of respect for public order, your horizons will expand a lot. Ouch!”

For some reason, while pretending to be flirtatious and muttering, Christine was greeted by Maria.

The woman who gave her a pint cup to teach her juniors good things handed over the walnut pie she had received earlier.

It might feel a bit boring to just watch from a high place, but…

When I saw the street bursting with people, those thoughts were blown away.

As if celebrities were coming from afar, the super-long-distance transmission gate in the center of the academy fired light of magical power without stopping.

“Wow, I don’t want to go down already. Will there be more later this afternoon?”

“Even if one or two people are missing, you won’t notice.”

I was already thinking about tinkering.

Persia, sitting in her usual position, slightly sticks out her front paws and asks a question.

“Master. What is that, there are no people there?”

“Huh? That’s because the whole city isn’t open to the public…”

I answered using common sense as much as possible, but at the same time, I felt a sense of incongruity like a guy.

An alley close to the school.

It doesn’t seem like a very important facility, but strangely there are no people there.

When I looked more carefully, I saw armed forces blocking the entrance to the alley.

Is it like an evacuation route just in case?

As if responding to my thoughts, a woman in pretty fancy clothes entered the room with the escorts.

“what?”

When I think about it more closely, the front and back don’t match.

Nothing has happened yet, so why are you already in the evacuation route?

At that moment, I was trembling with a very strong sense of anxiety.

A familiar face from afar ran into the alley.

“Eh, Elpentus?”

“what?”

I saw it for a brief moment, but I’m sure it was.

It is the same guy who was kicked out of the academy after being defeated by Michael a while ago.

Now everyone else is following me and Persia’s gaze.

Meanwhile, armed forces were rushing in from the alley.

“Wait, that…”

“I’m going to kill you. They’re trying to attack the people who entered earlier.”

Seeing the soldiers with their swords drawn, Medusha said with certainty.

Even from a distance, the whole face is full of life and tension.

What a daring act on the day of a festival attended by royalty.

While everyone froze with embarrassment, Medusha, the only one who kept her cool, hired Persia.

“Come on, blow something over there! You need to get the attention of those around you.”

“Yes? But maybe it’s just a passing road…”

“You idiot! You exude life like that, so will you just pass by? People who enter first are at risk.”

but. Being chased by someone like Elpentus doesn’t look very normal.

After hesitating for a while, Persia got my permission and exploded an enormous amount of cold.

Snowflakes bursting from the sky in the alley with the sound of a bang.

However, the citizens below cheered, thinking it was just one of the entertainments of the festival.

“Wow!”

“this…”

“Call someone now… Medusa!”

Whatever Maria says or not.

Medusha, with a small tongue, jumped from the bell tower to the nearby roof.

It was quite tall, but it was so light that it didn’t seem to have a big impact.

Sylvia asked with a serious expression as I was tearing my hair while I was watching it.

“Master. What do you do?”

“What do you do? I have to chase you.”

Due to the nature of Medusa, she doesn’t know what she will do if she leaves it alone.

As I hurried down the steps of the bell tower, Sylvia, who gave a small nod, gently embraced me.

Isn’t this

But she followed Medusha out of the bell tower without me stopping.

I clenched my teeth lest I passed out in a dizzying sense of floating.
