The Only Male Student in the Academy

060. Beginning of Summer Vacation (2)

“I don’t know if you’ve heard, but this ‘terror’ caused a lot of injuries.”

There were no fatalities, but many were seriously injured.

About 40 students were burned alive, and many students were caught in the fire and suffered damage.

Because of that, some classes had no choice but to be canceled.

“That’s why we divided students into regular classes and seasonal semester classes.”

Uninjured students continue their classes as usual.

However, it was said that students who were injured and hospitalized like me, or whose classes were canceled, would be organized as seasonal semesters.

However, unlike the existing seasonal semester, it seems to be a short course of about a month.

“Simply put, you can think of continuing the lectures you have been listening to. You can rest assured that there is nothing to do with the midterm exam grades that Beheritt took.”

In other words, you can think of it as overriding the half-form curriculum.

‘It’s a bit like being deprived of vacation, but it can’t be helped.’

It wasn’t dissatisfying, but it was also familiar. When I was in high school, I went to school every day because supplementary education was compulsory. Come to think of it, it seems that the palm has disappeared, but will there still be supplementary lessons for vacation?

Well, I’ve been taking fewer classes from the beginning, so the seasonal semester classes aren’t too burdensome.

Rather, the dissatisfaction is that it is a long way from the beginning of the seasonal semester.

There is about a month left before the seasonal semester begins, and it seems that until then, I will have to continue my hospitalization.

If you think of it as rest, your body will be comfortable, but if you think of it as a period of stagnation, your mind will not be very comfortable.

You have to do something even while you are hospitalized.

With that in mind, I asked a guest who had just visited the hospital.

“Do you want me to teach you my studies?”

Rose, who came to visit Marie, opened her eyes wide.

“It would be nice if you could teach me to study even if it’s only for the hospitalization period.”

“If you’re focused on treatment, why do you want to study from a hospital bed?”

“That’s because this side is also hard.”

I said so.

I pondered over what I could do while hospitalized.

Raising the level…… Can not. It was impossible to enter the dungeon because he was still not fully healed.

For the same reason, raising the skill level is also impossible.

You can’t craft items either.

Learning a new skill isn’t impossible, but you won’t be satisfied with it.

In that case, we have no choice but to stop growing.

I decided to save time in preparation for when I felt better.

Anyway, if you don’t get good grades, you’ll be kicked out of Philea Academy.

I hear that final exams are held on the last day of the seasonal semester, so if you study in advance from now on, you won’t have to make time to study for the exam.

Above all else, isn’t Rose the second best in the grade?

There will be few opportunities to learn from the second class.

“Okay. Prince Beheritt has a debt.”

Fortunately, Rose did not refuse.

During that hospitalization period, I only studied.

When Rose comes, she is taught.

When Rose returns, Marie and I study together.

I spent days like that.

Rose was good at teaching as befits the second in her grade. Whatever she asks, she answers in a very easy-to-understand manner.

In addition to that, she even shared things like easy memorization, so it would be fair to call her a hearty bowl of soup.

‘I don’t think there will be any problems with this for seasonal classes, and Lucius’s too…… You don’t have to worry about it right now.’

In Unknown Saga, summer and winter are the seasons of rest.

Chapter 1 begins in the spring, and chapter 2 begins in the fall. And next spring, Chapter 3 will start again…… What a feeling

Then, what she does in summer and winter is building relationships with her colleagues.

Flirting Tia with her and going on a date to the beach.

Like enticing Rose to go to a festival. Like seducing Lapisca and going on an adventure together.

Maybe it’s a period to raise the favorability of the heroines with that kind of feeling. Think of it as the time period in which the event story progresses.

Of course, at the same time, it is also the period when the main story rice cakes, which will start in the fall, appear slowly.

There is no such thing as a bad ending flag.

So during the summer vacation, you won’t have to worry about Lucius’ movements.

Then you should pay attention to the other side.

“Marie, let’s talk about our future.”

“Uh, uh uh, ahead of us…?!”

I just talked to her, but Marie is startled.

And then, as far as I can tell, … For some reason, he even took a defensive posture.

“That, that’s it… Still, I’m mentally ready… No, I didn’t expect that… Yes, I still have a little more time…”

“I don’t know what you’re misunderstanding, but it’s just a story about party activities after being discharged from the hospital.”

“Ah…? That’s right…”

Marie sat down quietly again.

…… What kind of misunderstanding was this guy?

“There’s one thing I’d like to confirm. Marie, do you still think you want to catch up with Rose?”

That has always been a question.

All of Marie’s feelings of improvement stem from her feelings of inferiority to Rose.

Even though she wants to be with her sister, she feels that she is far inferior to her sister who was born on the same day.

Marie has been working hard to resolve such internal conflicts, and since she couldn’t do anything with that, she asked me, who was called an idiot, for a party.

However, the conflict between Marie and Rose had been resolved to some extent with this incident.

In the game, Marie and Rose never met properly, but now they are back to face to face to the point of visiting them in the hospital.

So, from Marie’s point of view, there was less reason to continue the party with me.

So, I wanted to check that out first.

“That……, This, in general… I think everyone would like her older sister more than me…”

Marie was hesitant, but let go of her luck.

“Me, I’m timid… I’m less inferior to her sister… Her status is also… I’m no better than her sister…

Oh, and besides, we have the same face… ? So I think she’ll like her older sister more than me…. As a human being, as a woman, as a love object…… ?”

…… Object of love?

An unexpected word came out. Why are you suddenly comparing yourself to her older sister as a love interest…… ?

‘Ah, come to think of it, this is the lily world view….’

Then, suddenly, I realize. Unknown Saga is a game composed of 4 main heroines and countless sub-heroes.

Sub heroines have fewer events than the main heroines. However, depending on the character, there is a dedicated ending, and among them, some characters are more popular than the main heroine.

Mari was originally a character that could not be attacked. Because he died in Chapter 1.

But Marie survived.

Then, wouldn’t she have become a character that can be attacked?

‘Could this guy fall in love with Lucius… ?’

From noble mtl dot com

Come to think of it, Mari was popular with users among the characters that couldn’t be attacked. Because she faces a very impactful end.

On top of that, Rose continues to struggle with guilt after Marie’s death. There were many cases in which fans who liked Rose drew her story as a fanfiction if Marie survived, so those things influenced her and made her quite popular.

Among them, there was also an opinion that it would be nice to have Mari as a captureable character, so she said there was a possibility that Mari would become a captureable character…… She can’t do without.

In the first place, this world itself is a world formed based on secondary creations.

So it wouldn’t be strange if such secondary creation memes were mixed in this world.

“That’s why… Choosing me over my older sister… I don’t want to make it meaningless that she likes me… I-I want to prove that I’m better than my older sister as a love object… I guess…”

“Is that so?”

She was saying something she didn’t know, but she didn’t want to. In any case, she must have the will to do party activities together in the future.

‘The reason I want to become stronger is to see the ending.’

If Lucius defeats the demon lord without my help, that’s the best. But it’s hard to expect it to go back so smoothly.

This world is the worldview of Unknown Saga, but it is a secondary creation worldview in which all students have become female. In addition, characters who should have died in the original work even survived.

If the future story goes differently from what I knew…… In the worst case, I might have to defeat the demon lord myself.

‘But there is a limit to how strong I can become.’

Ariel is a spoiled brat by nature. Right now, she’s just making up for one serving by somehow making up for it with game knowledge.

So,

“Marie, learn a few more spells first.”

I said so.

No matter how strong I become, it is difficult to defeat the demon king alone. In the first place, Unknown Saga is a game that acts as a party, so there is a limit to what you can do alone.

Therefore, what is needed from now on is not my personal strength. It is the strength of the party.

Raise Marie.

That was what I had to do in the future.

Vice-captain of the Student Knights, Jayca Ancilla.

I was doing some light training in the vice-captain’s office when someone knocked on the door.

“Vice-captain, Miss Claire Entirus has come to see you.”

“Tell them to come in.”

Jay Carr put down the dumbbells she was holding and slipped on the uniform top that was hanging from her chair.

If this was a formal occasion, it would have been very rude. As for Jay Car, as she is an aristocrat, it was polite for her to dress neatly in front of others.

But the reason I didn’t do that was because this was the vice-captain’s office for the student knights.

This is because it is a place where qualifications as knights are considered more important than dignity as nobles.

“……Excuse me.”

The door opened with a weak voice.

Seeing that, Jayka smiled for a moment.

“Welcome, Claire.”

“…I heard you called.”

“Why don’t you sit down first? I don’t want to make my junior stand up.”

“…….”

Claire sat down in the chair without saying anything.

Looking at him without energy, doubts arise. Originally, this child would not have been like this.

‘But there wasn’t a particular problem in the family.’

The Countess of Ancilla is quite close with the Marquess of Entirus. So, she contacted her father just in case, and it seems that all the members of the post-Entirus writer are doing well.

Then, what is the melancholy that blooms on Claire’s face?

“Is there something wrong with you, Claire?”

“……No, not really.”

“If you say that with that face, I’ll be sure to believe you.”

“…….”

As expected, Claire did not respond.

Apparently, even though he has troubles, he doesn’t seem to want to talk to himself.

That’s a little disappointing.

-“I heard that the youngest daughter of the Marquis of Entirus is entering the academy.”

– “You, her senior, take good care of her.”

I received such a request from her father.

Well, I don’t mean to favor any particular student. He himself was the vice-captain of the Student Knights.

Despite trying to be as neutral as possible, I quite like this Claire.

There aren’t many talented people who can join the student knights from the first year, but Claire’s skills were outstanding among them.

‘It looks like it will fly if I raise it.’

This is not a story that will end with good fighting skills. Claire has a good brain.

There are more people who know how to use power than you think. However, it is rare for someone who knows how to fight while rolling his head.

If you think about it that way, Claire was a promising prospect, and in a few years, I wonder if he will become the leader of the student knights.

So he thinks it would be nice if he could rely on himself.

“There are three reasons I called you today.”

And the first of them was something I didn’t really want to say.

But I can’t help but say it. Because he himself is the vice-captain of the knights.

“Ms. Claire Entirus, your qualifications for the Student Knights will be suspended until the midterm exams for the second semester.”

Since this is what I was saying as the vice-captain of the knights, I deliberately used aristocratic tone.

Claire is listening without saying anything.

As expected.

“As for the reason, Ms. Claire Entirus got failing grades in two or more subjects in her final exams this spring semester. Do you have any objection to this?”

“……No.”

“If there is no objection, we will proceed with the suspension of the Student Knights. Then, it is the second business.”

Now that I’m done with my words as vice-captain, I’m going back to my original short words.

I tried to relax my shoulders as much as possible.

“During this vacation period. I’m going to gather some knights and camp together. Would you like to come?”

“……I was suspended.”

“It’s not going at the level of the knights, it’s just that we’re going personally. It’s just to change our mood.”

“…It’s okay.”

Claire politely refused.

I don’t really like that. I feel like I’m trying to keep my worries to myself.

“Claire, think about it one more time. The Templars are also waiting for you to come back? Alex?”

“…….”

“Because I don’t have to give an answer right away. Think about it slowly and tell me.”

“Yes…”

Again, the powerless answer came back. I tried to give him some time, but he’s still going to refuse.

She thinks there is nothing she can do about it, and Jay Carr delivers the last business.

“It’s the last thing, but a letter has arrived.”

“…A letter?”

“It’s a letter from the Marquess of Entirus. They told me to get a clear answer and deliver it to me.”

“Yes?”

Claire opened his eyes wide.

Jayka gave Claire a letter. A neat envelope that no one else has touched.

Claire carefully opened the envelope and read its contents.

Claire’s eyes grow more and more astonished.

“……hahahaha, it’s ruined.”

Claire let out a dejected laugh.

Jay Carr just tilted her head beside him.
