[Write three names of your best friends.]

During her school days, Marina’s face stiffened when faced with a difficult task that was simple for some, but difficult at the level of a millennium problem for others.

‘I can’t tell you.’

I know her past.

Before the semester started, Marina, who was shy despite being the young girl of a marquise, could not hold an exchange meeting unlike Jessica.

At the beginning of the semester, when everyone was greeting each other and building friendships, Marina, unable to participate in the conversation, was reading a book alone in the corner.

At the end of the semester, when everyone was engulfed in the heat of the festival and looking forward to the upcoming ball, she did not participate in the festival or the ball, but was studying alone in her room.

After three years of solitude with no one to connect with, she achieved the feat of ascending to the status of an archmage at the age of 23.

After becoming an archmage, I gained more confidence than before and was able to stand tall in front of others.

3 years… No, maybe it was a reaction to living quietly all her life, but she changed her appearance and behavior splendidly, but still… As if the will of this world hindered her, she had no friends.

“Sir, why aren’t you talking? If someone I don’t know hears it, they’ll think I said thirty people instead of three.”

“Gee, I’m thinking about it now, so please be quiet for a while!!”

Could it be that the reason I started stuttering a bit was because I remembered my school days when no one was paying attention?

To scratch her nerves even more, I kept talking to Marina without stopping.

“If you think about it like that, I guess the dean has a lot of friends? I’m really looking forward to seeing what the name will be.”

The more he talked, the more he looked at Marina’s face.

Did I have any good ideas?

It was a really disappointing answer to return after sending a look of anticipation to Marina as to what it was.

“… Hmmm. First of all, I think we should discuss the definition of a friend before we give it a name. We need to clearly distinguish where we are friends and where we are not friends… .”

“ha… .”

dissappointed.

I’m sure the answer I came up with after thinking about it for a long time would be the words of people who don’t have friends.

I’m not an insider, so I don’t know, but to insiders, a friend isn’t that great, so I don’t really think about the definition of a friend.

To them, a friend would be something that became natural from a certain moment.

or not

“Sir, I am very disappointed. There is no way anyone who gives such an answer to the question of having three friends has a friend.”

“Oh, no… !! I… !!”

“It’s done. After all, you were going to blur the point while discussing the definition of a friend and everything, and then you were going to say that someone who is not a friend is a friend, right?”

Perhaps the words hit the corner, Marina said nothing more and lowered her head.

After all, she was the type of person who was not able to make friends even if she wanted to, unlike me, who did not make friends on purpose and lived like a stubborn wolf.

“Is that manners class or what… Can I go out? I’m leaving, so don’t make such ugly excuses now. I’m sorry, I won’t be able to see you any more.”

“… … .”

“… … Then I have to practice my feet, so I’ll just go ahead. There are too many books, so I will leave them alone and take them with me tomorrow.”

With those words, I left the class behind Marina and the fainted Jessica.

“Ugh… !!”

I think I heard someone sobbing just before closing the class door, but I must be mistaken.

*****

“Ugh… !”

Sudden stomach pain, I stopped and leaned against the wall, and Nana, who was behind me, stepped forward and tried to cover my body with a large cloak.

“Me, it’s not like that, so you don’t have to choose.”

I was surprised to suddenly feel a stomach ache, but it was already over and there was no sign of the magic breaking out.

The sudden pain was not too bad, so I got up and straightened my posture with Nana’s support.

“Whew… .”

“majesty… Are you really okay?”

“Sorry… But it’s true that it ended yesterday, so you don’t have to worry so much.”

I took a handkerchief from my pocket and wiped the cold sweat running down my cheek, then I said to Nana, who was holding my arm.

“After that, sometimes my stomach hurts. It’s really good, so you can let go of me now.”

“yes… . But if you think it will happen, please let me know.”

“Yeah, thank you as always… .”

The place where I and Nana headed again, putting strength in their legs, was the S-Class special training ground prepared for the knights and life.

The reason why I came here as a magician, not a knight, was, of course, to meet my fiancee, Rain.

On that day, despite circumstances, I couldn’t even bring them into the house, and I had to apologize to the owner of the house.

“You’re not feeling very well, wouldn’t it be better to send a separate letter later?”

“No, I was the one who was rude first, so I want to meet in person and apologize to Lane. … First of all, because I am a fiancee.”

Having said that, Nana showed a dissatisfied look at what she didn’t like.

Nana was wearing a helmet that completely covered her face, but after spending a long time together, she was able to read the degree of big emotional change.

‘It seems that Nana doesn’t like Rain very much… Is it my mistake?’

Perhaps even if asked directly, Nana would refuse to answer, stating how she could evaluate her owner’s companion.

I thought all the knights were friendly to the humans of the swordsman family, but there may be exceptions.

“It hasn’t changed at all here… .”

“Are you also an academy graduate? Do you have any memories of this training ground?”

“no… It’s not that I don’t have feelings of nostalgia, but I don’t really have any memories. To put it bluntly, was it enough to give away the guys who called me giants?”

“hahaha… Nana is not in front of me, but there is a slightly radical side.”

“Yeah, because you can’t treat your Highness and other people the same. But will he be at the training ground?”

“Well… Without it, I can’t help it… .”

First, I went to the girls’ dormitory and asked if there was Lane through Nana, but unfortunately, I got the answer that she hadn’t come back yet.

Reluctantly, this was the place I arrived in looking for a place where there might be a lane, but I didn’t know that there might not be a lane here either.

“The only place that I can guess as a possible place is the training ground… Have I been too indifferent to Lane all this time?”

“It’s usually the case with arranged marriages, so you don’t have to worry about it. Miss Lane doesn’t know your favorite places.”

“Is that so… ?”

After chatting and walking, Nana suddenly came forward when she arrived at the entrance to the training ground.

“Nana?”

“majesty… There is someone inside.”

“… … .”

Looking at Lane’s nervous look, it was immediately clear that he wasn’t just saying that someone was inside.

I didn’t tell anyone that I was coming here.

It was unnatural to think that someone who was following me was ahead of us and was waiting here first.

“Nana… Do you think it’s dangerous?”

“… … I do not know. It feels like reckless killing, but it’s not specifically directed at us. There is only one pretense of popularity in the room in the first place.”

“Doesn’t it smell like blood?”

“Yes, it smells like sweat, but not blood. It doesn’t feel like a battle is taking place.”

“then… what’s inside… .”

“Maybe it’s just because I’m so focused on training that I’m exuding this kind of murderous intent. It’s not something that can’t happen if you work hard on image training.”

While saying those words, Nana slowly opened the door without letting go of her tension.

When we opened the door, it felt as if the wind was blowing towards us despite being indoors.

It’s not just wind, it’s a sharp wind like a small needle stabbing your body.

Is this the sense of murder that warriors like Nana are often talking about?

It was hidden behind Nana, so she couldn’t see the person inside, but looking at Nana’s stiff back, she could tell that there was something unusual inside.

“Nana… what’s the matter?”

“no… it’s nothing. Inside, one student was training. Miss Lane… There is none.”

“okay… ? But who is inside?”

“I do not know. There are people who can guess, but I don’t know… Would you like to see it for yourself?”

As Nana stepped aside, I lifted my head and looked at the man who monopolized the training ground.

With his long, sweaty hair tied down, he was a very handsome man, unlike Nana, who was spitting out murderous intent to the point of being wary of it.

He took off his shirt, probably because he didn’t want his clothes to get wet, and his body was engraved with very muscular muscles.

“ah… .”

Looking at his body as if in a frenzy, his body was obviously still there, but suddenly, only the tail hair tied down flew wildly.

“Nana… What just happened?”

“It was fired at a speed that was invisible to the eye and then led again. So the body is still there, but the tail is waving in recoil.”

“That’s right… !”

I don’t know why he brought the sword back to him, but his current posture was also very good swordsmanship.

“… … .”

Noticing that we were watching from the side, he glanced at us and turned his head again, showing the sword again.

However, this time, the speed was only so fast that I could see whether he was considering me, who was nothing more than a beginner in swordsmanship.

The sword was pulled out at the same speed as the wind and returned to its scabbard in a stylish posture with a white trace.

“Oh oh… !!”

He didn’t stop exclaiming, he almost inadvertently applauded, but he barely endured it.

After training, he walked over to me and Nana with a jacket and shirt on his shoulder.

He didn’t feel the same murderous intent as before, but Nana, who had not yet cleared the boundaries, stood in front of me as if blocking him.

He stopped at some distance, glanced at Nana and asked me.

“Aren’t you a knight student? What’s going on here?”

“half words… ?”

When Nana said that with a look of anger, I quickly stepped forward and said:

“Nana! It’s inside the academy, so don’t feel uncomfortable! And sorry to interrupt your training, we came looking for someone who… The swordsmanship is so close… .”

“… … What?”

Did something bother you?

With his eyes wide open as if in disbelief, he slowly approached me.

But after a while, Nana blocked the way, so she pulled her head to the side and looked at me and asked me.

“What did you say now? You think my footwork is cool?!”

“uh?! Oh no, that’s… .”

I don’t know why those words bothered me, but once I nodded, he pushed Nana away with great force, came up to me, took my hand, and said,

“you… Will you marry me?”

“yes? Uh huh?!”

What is this person saying to me now?!
