46 – Episode 6. Academy life with wrong direction (1)

“…… “What are you doing?”

I looked at Clara and Jan, who were sitting across from each other on the sofa, and said, The two people were exchanging glances and engaging in a war of nerves. To be exact, Clara was glaring at Jan.

“Is it really okay to believe it?”

“I understand Clara’s concerns. We are now the swords of our master.”

“Master…… ?”

Clara is puzzled. I really don’t get used to that name.

“Do the elves’ noble beliefs change so quickly overnight?”

“…… We had no beliefs from the beginning. There was no thought that the elves should be revived. “She just followed her mother.”

Jan spoke honestly, as if there was no need to hide it anymore.

“The person we follow has changed to Abel, but it is different from when we followed her mother. “This time, I plan to move with full faith in my lord.”

I felt proud to see Jan strengthen his resolve.

It was truly reassuring to have someone who would trust and follow me no matter what I did in the future.

“I guess you forgot what Lina said to you.”

For your information, Lina had eaten breakfast and had gone to train, but before she went, she looked at the dark elves and said, “I will never forgive you!” It was difficult to remember how she could barely calm herself down from screaming.

Still, it wasn’t a bad situation because there were cards that could be used one by one.

“Anyway… “Don’t fight too much.”

“Doesn’t it look like there’s going to be a fight? After seeing Lina’s reaction… ….”

I have nothing to say.

For some reason, if Amelia had seen this scene, I think she would have laughed and pressed herself tremendously. But I’m not cheating on him, I’m just trying to keep him by my side because I need him, but it’s a bit unfair.

“Anyway, I have to go out with Clara today. “Even if I’m not there, just stay calm and don’t cause trouble.”

“Oh…. Abel!”

“Yes?”

Nia, who was standing behind Jan, immediately raised her hand.

“Are you saying that was a date?!”

“… Uh?”

As soon as the word date came out of her mouth, I felt her mood change suddenly. Jan also quickly read her mood and scolded Nia.

“Nia. Noisy.”

“Sister! “This is a serious matter?”

“… What?”

“You might become the wife of the master we will serve in the future, right?”

Clara’s eyes opened wide.

“Boo, booboo, wife! What are you talking about? !”

I urgently raise my voice and deny it. He clearly showed his embarrassment and kept looking at me. It was clearly visible that her face was flushed, perhaps because her skin was as white as her hair.

“…… Nia, you said that your master’s fiancé is Lina.”

“Oh, is that so? But as far as I know, among humans, there are cases where one man has multiple wives. What did they say… “Did you say it was polygamy?”

Nia asks while looking at me. Don’t ask me…….

“I see. Even if she’s not a wife, she can still be a wife…….”

“What are you guys talking about?” ….”

I don’t know why we are having this conversation so seriously.

I just wanted to go out and have fun because I thought I would be bored if I just stayed at the academy.

Suddenly, he is saying things that I had no idea about, such as being his wife or his wife.

Even if polygamy was legal in the first place, there is no way the sponsors would recognize it. I wanted to stop seeing Amelia’s creepy smile.

“Let’s stop talking nonsense and get up. You guys stay calm at the academy. “Don’t get into an accident while wandering around.”

“I understand. “I will follow you.”

“Okay, okay. Stay calm… what?”

For a moment, I thought I had heard wrong, but at Yan’s words, the dark elves standing behind put on robes and equipped themselves with weapons.

When I put on the black mask, I felt like my yellow eyes were glowing. Yan also stood up and put on the mask hanging around his neck.

“I will accompany you to protect the safety of my lord and Clara.”

“No, knights are enough for escort. “Isn’t it troublesome if you guys move around?”

“I am by no means ignoring your knights, but I think our skills are better. “We will also have a better ability to respond when circumstances arise.”

“If you get caught, it might be over, right?”

“… ….”

Yan slightly averted his gaze.

I understand that you want to build trust by showing loyalty to me, but there was no need to show it now. There were plenty of opportunities in the future.

“I know you’re good at infiltration, but it’s better not to get involved when you’re in Ferrator. “If you’re not careful, citizens may start to question security when they see you.”

I looked at Jan and spoke calmly.

“Then naturally, we will interrogate His Majesty Emperor Frey, who absolved you, and we will end up tarnishing His Majesty’s face. Do you understand what I mean?”

“…… All right.”

Luckily, I don’t think he has any intention of being stubborn. Like it.

“Don’t worry. “Don’t worry, you will soon have a chance to prove that you are useful.”

I patted Jan on the shoulder and did not forget his encouragement.

“I’ll be back. “I’ll bring you a lot of food, so just be quiet.”

“That… “My lord.”

“Yes?”

“There is no need to show respect to us. Please feel at ease.”

I want to do that too, but my attitude changed so much in an instant that I haven’t gotten used to it yet. I don’t even know what to call it.

“I will do that when I feel more comfortable.”

I smiled at Jan and then prepared to leave. He was dressed appropriately and put on a robe. Clara followed me and put on her tattered robe hood.

Since I don’t know how to capture Clara’s divine power right now, I was thinking of at least covering her face.

“Then…” “I’ll be back.”

“I will be waiting.”

“…… “If I’m bored, I do this.”

I took out her chessboard from her drawer in her living room and handed it to her. Jan tilts her head and takes it.

“This…” “What is it?”

“It’s chess. To put it simply, it is a game where you have to kill all of the opponent’s pieces. Listen to users about the rules. “Let me tell you.”

“I see. The idea is to learn strategies in preparation for multiplayer battles. “I will study hard.”

“…… Ah, yes.”

I wondered where to start, but decided to just leave it alone. I felt like if I left it like this, we would just be playing with words all day.

“Would it have been okay if I left without saying anything to Lina?”

Clara, who was sitting across from her in the carriage, asked with a worried look on her face. I rested my chin on her chin and looked out her window, then turned my eyes to her.

“It’s okay. “I’m a little scolded.”

“Then it shouldn’t work, right? Because of me… ….”

“It’s not like cheating. “I’m just going to have fun.”

I spoke indifferently. It’s obvious that Lina will be jealous, but she can’t do anything as long as she watches him every time.

There was no way for me to win in terms of force, so I needed to take the lead in the situation and control them.

I don’t know, but people tend to take things for granted once they get used to it. If you take the initiative in advance, it will feel like it is natural.

Of course, if you act roughly with an iron plate on your face, you might get hit, so you can use your affection for me. It looks a bit trashy, but it does.

“That’s true, but… ….”

“Are we here to have fun? “You don’t want to think about anything else when you’re in front of me?”

“You’re thinking differently! As for me, I usually only think about Abel… !”

I raised my eyebrows as I saw Clara waving her hand. This is a bit unexpected.

“Huh? Okay… ?”

She opens her mouth as if she belatedly realizes what she said. Her face was getting redder and redder, so I looked away from her and changed the topic.

“Anyway, what can I do to have fun?”

It was so obvious that I was in trouble.

I just thought that I had a cute younger sister, but Clara seemed to have very personal feelings for me.

Is it because I saved him?

If you receive help in an extreme situation, you are bound to develop feelings of attraction, so you may have mistaken that for love.

We don’t know exactly yet, so for now, let’s just think it’s just a guess.

“Anything I do with Abel will be fun.”

…… Don’t show it. It’s hard to pretend not to know.

“Really? “Then, since I’m hungry, let’s eat something delicious first.”

They say Mt. Geumgang is also a beautiful sight after a meal.

Ferrator Market.

I can constantly hear people talking around me.

There was so much commotion everywhere that you wondered if it was really coming from a person’s mouth. As she frowned at the noise, Clara was looking around her with her eyes sparkling.

“I guess the capital is the capital, after all. It’s so lively! “I think there will be a lot of delicious things and a lot of good things, too!”

I chuckled as I saw Clara shaking her head constantly and looking around her. I reached out and pushed down Clara’s hood so that Clara could not see her gray hair.

“You have to wear the hood properly.”

“Oh, yes…” ! “Did you look too excited?”

Clara smiled sheepishly and touched the end of her hood. She said she lived in the village all her life. It would be amazing to see so many people walking around. I understand.

“It’s okay. “It’s more fun to express your feelings honestly like this rather than being indifferent.”

Every time Clara showed this side of herself, she seemed to want to experience something new.

“Hey, Abel.”

“Yes?”

The knight who was escorting us approached us a few steps away. Then some people in the market looked at us.

The knights were wearing casual clothes rather than armor, but it was inevitable that attention would be drawn to the massiveness emanating from their rugged muscles.

“The crowd is quite large. Please be careful not to get caught up in the crowd.”

“Yes. Did you hear that, Clara?”

“Yes. “I’ll be careful not to get caught up in the crowds.”

That’s how our market tour began.

“Wow… ! It is delicious!”

After biting into her mouth a piece of lamb skewer, she stood with her eyes wide open in admiration. She covers her mouth and cannot take her eyes off the lamb skewers. The owner of the store selling lamb skewers laughed cheerfully.

“Oh, thank you for telling me it’s delicious!”

“Can I have three more please?”

“Of course!”

Clara, who was holding a skewer with both hands to the owner, smiled and held out the skewer to the knights.

“Try it! It is delicious!”

“I will eat well.”

I said to Clara as I received the skewer.

On the other hand, the knights were taking turns looking at the skewers that Clara and I were holding out. I was conscious of not being distracted by anything else during the escort.

I took a bite of the skewer as I looked at him hesitating, not knowing what to do. Oh. It’s delicious. It doesn’t even smell fishy.

“Eating what Clara gives you is also work. “It’s okay to eat it.”

“… Yes. “Abel.”

“I will eat well. “Clara.”

Only then did the guard knights accept lamb skewers from Clara. Only after seeing her eating lamb skewers did Clara start to move again.

Maybe it could become a food tour.

Thinking like that, it was the moment I tried to follow Clara.

Whoa!

Clara bumped into a man who was about two heads taller than her. However, the person who fell was not Clara, but a large man.

“Ugh!”

The man who hit his butt on the dirt floor looks up at Clara with a dumbfounded expression. He was mesmerized and closed his eyes. He seemed to be checking who it was he bumped into.

Clara too seemed embarrassed and belatedly reached out to the man.

“Oh, are you okay?”

“W-what…” ….”

“Are you not hurt? “Please take a good look.”

Hasn’t the person who needs to fall changed?

Our Clara, you are strong…….

“Well, what is it? You… ….”

“Are you okay?”

“A. Seed… …. “Look straight ahead.”

“Is that the one who came and bumped into you?”

The hood Clara wore was slightly tilted to the side.

“What, this—”

The man ignored Clara’s hand and jumped up. He was about to scream, but was shocked when he faced Clara.

“… Tsk! Be careful next time!”

Suddenly, the man clicks his tongue and goes his own way.

“He was a strange person. Yes?”

“Yes.”

“I was going to get angry if you interrupted my time with Abel. I’m glad I just went. Really.”

When Clara turned her body, she was smiling, but it was no mistake to hear the coldness in her voice before she turned around.

“Come on, let’s go eat the next meal. “I suddenly have a craving for something sweet!”

· * * *

I ate all kinds of food at the market until my legs started hurting.

To be honest, I didn’t expect Clara to eat this well, so I and her knights couldn’t help but be surprised. How does such a greedy appetite come from such a delicate body?

“Ah! Shall we go over there too? “It was hard to see because it was in a corner!”

“I guess so.”

As I was walking leisurely, I heard an angry voice coming from inside.

“Didn’t you say that if you catch it again next time, you’ll die?! “Today I will cut off her wrists!”

“No way…” !”

A man was holding her child’s hand and raising her sword high. I immediately gestured to the drivers. The knights quickly moved forward and stopped the man.

“What are you?!”

“Stop. Please let go. “I will pay for you.”

“… ….”

The man let go of the child at my words. Then the child quickly enters the alley.

“Damn slum bastards.”

After asking the man the price, I paid according to the cost of the food the child brought.

“Hey, bro.”

“…… ?”

I was about to pay the money and go back when the owner stopped me.

“Do you know that being so protective makes those kids have a complacent mental state? “You have to set an example so it won’t happen again.”

“…… That kid would have continued even if he had lost his hand today. “He must have thought that he would rather eat something by stealing than die of hunger.”

“So you turn a blind eye to theft?”

“That is for you to decide. “I just gave the child I saw one more chance.”

I can’t solve the fundamental problem anyway. Because I’m not responsible for that child’s life.

The only reason I came forward was because I didn’t want the time I spent with Clara to remain as a bad memory.

Until she returned from speaking with the owner, Clara could not take her eyes off the alley the child had run into.

“Clara…… ?”

“Because stealing is wrong…” …. “I know I shouldn’t feel sorry for you, but I keep feeling sorry for you because I know how painful it is to starve.”

I looked down the alley as Clara muttered to herself.

“Can’t everyone eat well and live well…? ….”

“Not everyone can eat well and live well.”

The era had nothing to do with this part.

Whether it was the Middle Ages or modern times, there was never a time when everyone ate well and lived well.

“If I wasn’t a saint…… Abel probably didn’t pay attention to me, right?”

“I guess so. Even if we had met by chance, I would have helped you at least once like I did now.”

“I see.”

It was a disappointing story from Clara’s perspective, but her expression did not change. She was just looking distantly toward the alley the child had run into.

“Are you disappointed because it’s realistic?”

“No. “She feels lucky.”

“Lucky?”

“Yes. Whatever the reason, she was able to remain by Abel’s side.”

Clara’s remarks were unexpected.

Just because she was naive and because she was a saint, I felt like my preconceived notions that she must be dreaming of something ideal were shattered.

Maybe Clara is more mentally mature than I think. She somehow felt like she was seeing this side of Clara.

“I’m glad you think so.”

“Let’s take a look around. “There’s still a lot to see.”

By the time Clara took her eyes off her alley, her smile had returned.
