Chapter 63 (Crest)
This academy strongest magic user.
Rank first place in junior saint rank.
No wonder many students change side to them.
Noticed Beoza standing here, many students looked toward this direction.
"Your side is the one who selfishly makes a compet.i.tion out of this, do you think you have the right to make such suggestion?"
The one who denied Bushcutter suggestion is Aira-san.
"Fuun, Is that so. well, I guess because of that Horn family is always being left in the dust by Arclight family."
"Has nothing to do with the family? then why you claimed that against Troia family there"s no chance of winning?"
If it"s Aira-san, she would say "don"t decide it easily"ー that"s what I thought but,
I guess there"s no helping it.
After I had such thought, at the time I"m about to b.u.t.t in,
"What"s this, did you guys wants to compete?"
Kyurie-san who watched the situation calmly since earlier opened her mouth.
"Nn?"
"The time period, hmm let"s see, how about one month? in one month, Aira exploration group and Viburk exploration group will compete as to which one reach a deeper layer."
"Who knows. you won"t know until you try after all."
Kyurie-san said that lightly.
He shows a smile on his mouth.
"Then if that is the case, I have one suggestion."
"How about, the loser have to listen to the winner unconditionally?"
"Ah? making the entire person who lost listen to those who won would be interesting, though?"
Kyurie-san line of sight then turned toward me as if asking my thought.
Measuring the opponent ability, she stepped in because she judges that we can win I guess.
"I don"t mind being included in that you know?"
Thus I said such words.
"If that"s the case... me as well."
The one who raises her hand is Aira-san.
"I"m the perpetrator who involved you two to this subjugation operation. I can"t afford not to partic.i.p.ate isn"t it?"
Aira-san glared at Bushcutter.
"The truth is I don"t like the way you guys doing things. That"s why this is a good opportunity. With this, I can make it clear what"s wrong and right."
"Yes, I don"t mind."
Viburk nodded consented.
Probably they aimed this composition from the start.
However their miscalculation is, they don"t know that Kyurie-san would propose such suggestion.
"Beoza, you"re fine with this as well right?"
"Even if this is a request from a person from Duke Troia family?"
Beoza turned down her gaze.
"... I understand. I will also partic.i.p.ate."
"Ou!"
Maro who has completely degraded into become follower leave the place after Bushcutter.
Then after making sure that those two has entered the second floor, Beoza turned toward here.
"About just now, I ask for your forgiveness, Miss Aira."
"You seem to have troubles with your family relation, however, as you can see, I also have some trouble related to my family, you see. Marquis Maro family aside, when the other party is a person from Duke Troia family, to be honest, I can"t actually go against them. Well, though I also have no intention to make an excuse for making you feel displeased."
"Fuu, how adult-like eh, Miss Aira. however, even with thatー"
Suddenly he draws near toward Kyurie-san.
"Kyurie Velstein right?"
"Aah, what a beautiful person."
"The truth is I"d saw your several times within the academy, however, due to how beautiful you are, It makes me hesitate to call out."
"Please pardon me. I"m really fond of beautiful things you see... but, this beauty... a beauty which even if we consider Cecil Arclight then it is equal... Ah, it"s really saddening that I have to fight against such beauty! The G.o.d is really cruel!"
For some reason, Beoza looks depressed.
"Sagara Kurohiko right?"
I returned her handshake.
"... the pleasure is mine."
This person...
"Maー Viburk is?"
That being the case, he might have been near Maro while he"s being influenced by Bushcutter and become someone irritating.
"Eh?"
Beoza-san is looking up toward the second floor after let go of the handshake.
"That idiot."
His aura completely changed, emotion disappeared from his expression.
His robe fluttered.
"Well then, please excuse me."
Like that Beoza-san did not enter the second floor, but instead leaving the dining hall.
.................
"For now I should try to do my best a little bit more ne~."
Immediately after we left the dining hall, Aira-san shows a wry smile.
"Also... I"m sorry that it has turn into something strange alright?"
"We"re the one who makes it all bad after all. there"s no need for Aira-san to apologize."
"No. You"re right, Aira."
And then her face turn redder.
"S-Somehow, despite being the same gender, it makes my heart throb, Kyurie is a really cool person isn"t it?"
"U, un... Thank you... K-Kurohiko as well, thank you ne~."
Aira-san left the cla.s.sroom to discuss things with her exploration group member.
"Aira-san is really suitable to become leader, or rather, she really looks like a committee chairman eh."
I muttered alone while looking at the door.
"Though she does not wear any gla.s.ses and has braid hair style ne~."
"Nn? well... making who can defeat the giant faster as compet.i.tion they say, to do that against giant whose power is unknown is dangerous after all."
To have a match where who can defeat the giant faster, there"s the possibility that opponent can go there today and defeat it.
If our opponent has all of their members entered in that layer already then, because of the nature of the sacred ruin, there will be no chance for us.
"It"s a bit too open though."
That"s why Kyurie-san and I wondered whether we should intervene or not.
"I see, certainly..."
"Me too. That person compared to Bushcutter nor Viburk, he gives off a different feeling."
"Indeed so..."
Kyurie-san then put her hand on her lips.
"And about that man named Viburk, this might be a little bit unrelated but..."
"... As expected, you think so too?"
I also somehow thought of such possibility.
And the words he said at the dining hall.
ーAren"t you the one who is wrong!
I feel like that means 『even though I love you, you"d gone and invited someone like Kurohiko instead!』 or something like that.
Now, this time, he makes a compet.i.tion out of students acquisition, does he has the mind of bullying the person he likes I wonder?
Umu...
Though it"s only a hypothesis, there"s also the possibility that Maro didn"t even understand his own feeling.
"Well, it"s a waste of time to think about another person love affairs I guess. we should think up a way to defeat the giant monster instead."
"I understand. see you tomorrow then."
"There"s no way that I would do such thing right! this is the sacred cursed sword that I"ve obtained!"
After noticed that I"m bringing a sacred cursed sword with me Claris-san spring up astonishedー
"Is that so?"
Come to think of it, if I"m not wrong Zix said that there are only another three of them in this country.
"Just before, you said that it might exist bellow the country of the end right!?"
"Emm... I don"t mind just to hear about the legend. At the very least, tell me about the book where such information exists."
Haa~...
Should I ask about the sacred cursed sword first?
"The truth is about that sacred cursed sword; it seems like it does not have any special power about it you know?"
I told the story which I heard from Kyurie-san to her.
"Since it looks like a key, the truth is this might be not a weapon? that is what I"d thought, but I guess, that"s impossible right..."
"The clock tower?"
"This might be the key to that door?"
"Head there, where are we going to go?"
"After all Kurohiko and I can"t use any magic power you know? If that is the case then who else going to pour their magic power into it!? And who else going to have the permission to enter the altar in the clock tower bas.e.m.e.nt!?"
The one who is sitting on the headmistress chair, Makina-san hold her hand on her forehead and heave a sigh.
"I"m busy, though?"
"Then, Headmistress!?"
Claris-san raises her face immediately.
"Ooh! Incidentally please also increase the library budgets!"
Can a person look that happy I wonder?
Makina-san is really a caring person isn"t it.
"Well yes..."
*Fuu*, Makina san breath a third sigh.
"I understand. I will make a preparation; please wait at the main gate."
