I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes - I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes chapter 100

We Can’t Have Something Like That

At my murmuring, everyone’s eyes turn towards it.

Count Franz Wallenstein was just coming out of the tower.

Next to him was the butler of our family and a man wearing a robe that seemed to be guiding him.

Just by looking at it, he must have been the magician of the Red Horse Tower.

“That person is Louie’s father… ”

Veronica murmurs.

I don’t know for some reason, but everyone seems nervous.

No, is it normal to be nervous?

First of all, he’s a count, and he’s also the son of a former duke who was executed as a traitor…

Thinking about it again, it was understandable that Felice was swallowing her saliva with a pale face.

Still, it seems like an overreaction, but what?

Count Franz Wallenstein, who was just looking at me, met my eyes.

He immediately frowns.

Why all of a sudden?

I’m not sure I did anything wrong this time…

I thought for a while.

“ah.”

It flashed through my mind that I stole the Count’s wallet.

Like other party members, I am very nervous.

Count Wallenstein approaches us.

Standing in front of us, he turned his gaze and looked around.

That gaze first stops in front of Felice, not me.

“Ah, hello… ?”

In an awkward atmosphere, Master takes the lead and opens his mouth.

Actually, it seems like something I should do, but anyway.

Let the master say hello first.

“hello… ”

Veronica, Felice, and Aine also say hello to the Count.

“… It’s been a while, my lord.”

I said so too.

Felice and Veronica’s voices trembled a little.

Aine’s tongue was slightly twisted because she was drunk.

However, the Count’s eyes were still on Felice.

“Twitter.”

Finally, after he clicked his tongue at Felice, he looked away.

Felice trembled.

The next place his gaze was, of course, was me.

“It’s interesting.”

“Old, yes?”

I bit my tongue nervously.

“The heir to the Epsilt duchy did something?”

“Yes.”

I nodded

.

“I wonder why you have to hear that from someone other than you in the first place.”

“ah.”

Well, thinking about it, it is.

But it’s unfortunate that I don’t even exchange letters with Count Wallenstein.

No, the letter isn’t the problem. During vacation, even though we were in the same house, we didn’t talk properly, but what kind of letter is it?

“haha… sorry… ”

“Twitter.”

Knock on me once too.

Although I didn’t flinch like Felice.

Anyway, he only opens his mouth to other people now.

“You… ”

Party members looking at each other.

This time Veronica steps out.

“I… We are Louie’s friends… ”

“okay.”

That was it.

Of course, when the word friend came up, he seemed to glance at Felice again, but it must have been a whim.

As if he had nothing more to say, Count Franz Wallenstein left as it was.

The butler in the back gave me a small bow and followed the count.

By the way, it feels like other people’s eyes are focused on me.

“… why?”

For some reason, everyone was looking at me with sad expressions.

Really, why?

“Oh, no… ”

“Come on, let’s go!”

Master speaks in a cheerful voice.

It’s a cheerful voice that seems to have been made up for some reason, but it must be because of her mood.

“Yeah, yes. Louis, let’s go.”

“yes? okay.”

For some reason, Felice looks at me with guilty eyes.

How do you know?

Yeah, it’s the eyes I’ve seen often before.

But why all of a sudden now?

Anyway, with such trivial doubts, I walked towards the tower.

Before we even entered, someone came out of the entrance of the tower.

And then, Veronica runs right away.

“Sally!”

Veronica runs towards her and hugs Sally tightly.

“veronica!”

Sally hugged her tightly.

After a while, let’s finish hugging the two.

Veronica avoided our gaze with a blushing face.

“Wow, look what!”

Anyway, Sally greets us with a wide smile.

“Everyone is welcome!”

—

Sally led us into the tower.

Moving inside the horse tower, she speaks with momentum to explain everything about the red horse tower.

Veronica said the same thing earlier, so are all wizards the same?

She said that Scarlett Marche, the Red Horseman, is waiting for us.

“Are you all hungry?”

We nodded.

I ate a little bit of light food and sweets earlier, but it was just a snack.

“Okay, let’s go!”

Sally was a very cheerful and bright person.

Also, a little more than Veronica…

‘normal… ? No, I’m so sorry for Veronica.’

Anyway, at least she seemed to know how to treat people more than Veronica.

Considering what Veronica did to me in the past, is it fortunate that there are people like this among wizards?

The Scarlett Marche I met last time was also a good person, but he was very selfish.

While we were thinking about it, Sally suddenly brought us to the front of the restaurant.

before going into it.

Sally stands in front of us, slowly bowing her head.

Then he speaks to us in a sincere voice.

“Everyone, thank you very much. I live thanks to you.”

“haha… ”

We let out an embarrassing laugh.

“Uh… Everyone, take one of these.”

She pulls something out of her waist pocket.

“This… ”

Sally hands each of us beautiful red rings.

“It’s hard to say in return, but it’s a ring I made myself.”

she says

“You guys saved my life, but I don’t know how to repay you. I was wondering if I should say everything I want, but I also wondered what use it would be if the Lord Matthew had the right to wish.”

Sally gives Veronica the ring.

“Oh, are you giving me too?”

“Yeah, of course not! So, I decided to give you a ring I made myself.”

“Wow, thank you!”

Sally smiles and tells Veronica.

“Veronica, turn the jewel in the ring over there.”

“jewel? yes… Whoa!”

As soon as Veronica turns the red gem in the center of the ring, red flames appear around her like a thin shield.

The duration wasn’t that long, but the heat of the flames was palpable.

“Whoa… ”

Aine opens her mouth in admiration.

“What do you think?”

“great… ”

Felice admires.

Although not long ago, the necklace given out by the academy during the practice evaluation had a similar function.

It’s a lot smaller, and it’s nicer in that it’s a fire shield rather than a normal shield.

“By the way, this is not a one-time use. There is no need to replace the mana stone, just throw it into the fire after using it and it will recharge itself.”

“Uh, is that possible?”

Veronica looks surprised.

Everyone admires, and Veronica looks around the ring.

“Whoa, I developed it myself… ”

“How did you do it? huh? Sally?”

“Ah Okay. I’ll tell you later. Shall we eat rice first?”

Saying that to Veronica, who clings to Sally, she opened the dining room door.

“Wow… ”

We marveled again.

The dinner was set inside, and Scarlett Marche was waiting for us.

“Everyone is welcome!”

she shouts

—

The meal was enjoyable.

In the center of the table, a whole pig was being cooked, trapped in something like red crystal.

Is it a red mage tower after all?

We continued to talk with Sally, as well as with Scarlett Marche.

“Yeah, did everyone think of a wish?”

she asks us

Everyone shook their heads.

I guess I haven’t thought about what to say yet.

As a token of gratitude, she had previously said that each of us would grant each of our wishes.

It’s a wish that no one else grants, but a red mage tower lord, but it can’t be used lightly.

I had two wishes for a request to get along with Veronica, but it’s the same.

What we did at the time of the practice evaluation.

We also talked about the war between the Red Horse Tower and the Duke of Epsilt.

Even so, I asked if he was okay because he was the Duke of Epsilt.

“Well… The imperial family and the denomination are all on their side, so it’s annoying, but instead, there are other horse towers behind us.”

“Why are the horse towers on our side?”

“That’s because the imperial family used a black horse tower.”

“Ah, the loyalty between the towers… ”

I say so.

Scarlett Marche, as well as Sally, shook their heads.

“We can’t have that.”

Scarlett says.

“If we had known Sally was kidnapped in the first place, we would have wiped them out before the imperial family.”

she explains it that way.

From what I heard, even the dispatched wizards of each Magic Tower were all killed by the Black Magic Tower.

“It is, but using this as an excuse, the imperial family may be trying to interfere or to reduce the pressure. There are also wizards who doubt that the dispatched wizards were actually killed by the Imperial Family, not the Black Horse Tower.”

“It’s kind of complicated… ”

Aine says

We talked like that and the meal was over.

“So, that’s why I called you guys… ”
