I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes - I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes chapter 74
Felice’s Guilt
Louis says let’s get something to eat first.
Alice, whom Louis calls Master, enters the sea first.
Louis made a harpoon and gave it to everyone.
Felice and the others went into the sea with harpoons one by one.
We didn’t go very deep, but we could see fish swimming under the clear water.
Felice, who was quite motivated, gave her strength and slashed the harpoon.
Is it because the bottom of the water looks a little distorted?
Her harpoon only took pictures of the pitiful sand.
Alice continued to catch fish with subtle movements.
Perhaps Aine was also used to it, and she continued to catch fish.
Felice was starting to get nervous.
‘Oh, I can’t… ‘
her face becomes weeping.
In fact, it was the same with Louis and Veronica who were failing to hunt.
It was because Felice was obsessed with the obsession to do well.
It was the feeling that came when Professor John forced her and Veronica to join the party and Louis objected.
The thought that he couldn’t have been here originally, that he was a nuisance to Louis just by being in this party.
Therefore, while the other party members were enjoying themselves, Felice was feeling nervous.
Maybe that’s why, Felice slashed the harpoon at the fish, and unwittingly put mana into her nervousness.
As a result, the fish she was trying to catch was smashed, and the harpoon that Louis had made was also shattered.
This, too, was no big deal.
Felice’s face turned pale at the thought of destroying what Louis had made herself.
Soon, she made eye contact with Louis.
He looked like a child caught doing something wrong, and headed towards him, holding in his hand a barely-caught fish wreck and a piece of a harpoon.
“Hey, Louie… ”
Felice closed her eyes tightly.
Louis only handed the harpoon he had used.
“Thank you… ”
Of course, that doesn’t mean you can’t catch fish.
The three, including Felice, caught clam afterward.
By the way, she worked harder than anyone else with the thought of doing well at least this.
I was able to set up my own achievement of catching more clams than anyone else while moving to the point where I was out of breath.
And it’s pretty fun.
Felice was also in a good mood, although not as much as the others.
In fact, after the incident at the funeral, she thought it was all over.
Even the mere fact that she could be doing this with Louis and the other party members felt like a dream, though.
Since then, she has been picking coconuts with Veronica.
I also collected tree branches with Louie.
Even in the meantime, it was Felice who moved the hardest among the five.
After work, the party members sat around a campfire and began grilling fish.
Although everyone was preoccupied with fish.
Felice was so happy to be able to do this now.
I wished this moment would last forever.
At the same time, it was very sad that I would never feel this happiness again after the practice evaluation.
Obviously, Professor John told us to work in the same party until the practice evaluation.
Of course, after that, I said that I would leave it to myself.
At least she wasn’t so shameless as to think that Louis would let her stay at the party.
Anyway, that’s it.
Felice, who worked harder than anyone else, couldn’t help but pay attention to the fish being grilled.
Finally, stuck on a tree branch.
Louis took the deliciously grilled fish out of the fire.
For a moment, wouldn’t it be that Louis was giving away all but himself?
I had such a sad imagination.
Louis, in turn, gave Felice a fish as well.
I knew it was a meaningless action.
Nevertheless, Felice was very happy for some reason.
After the Happy Meal, Felice was caught in the first order of the vigil.
Everyone lay down, and Felice stayed near the bonfire to keep the fire going.
I could hear the party members talking quietly, and then it became quiet.
Left alone, Felice thought about Louis and the party members.
No, actually, I didn’t know much about the other party members.
Because of her usual blunt personality, she didn’t have many friends.
In freshman year, I didn’t get along very well with other party members, even in the same party.
It was Louis who approached him first.
With this personality, the only person he had been close with was Louis.
he ruined it all
It was the first time I saw Alice there, too.
So, at the party now, Felice had no choice but to get along awkwardly with everyone.
Felice thought about Aine and Veronica.
Although both were in favor of Louis’ expulsion, like themselves.
In the case of Aine, at least until the very end, she was against it.

Just as she was afraid of her father, she must have been afraid of Leo, the son of the duke.
Unlike herself, who could not object at all, Aine had the courage to object.
It was the woman who had been close with Louis until that day.
Veronica was the same as herself.
At least, she didn’t lie or tell Louis the unforgivable lie like herself.
Considering that she had visited Louis several times since her exile, she probably even apologized.
Unlike himself, who missed the opportunity to apologize to Louis.
Aine was living with Louis as before.
Veronica was much more careful than before, but at least as close to classmates, she seemed to be staying with Louis.
In the case of Alice, there was nothing like them.
I was just having fun with Louis.
Seeing them like that, it was Felice who felt envious.
I especially envy Veronica, even a little bit jealous.
At the same time, he also felt that he did not deserve such thoughts.
As I thought about this and that, a long time passed.
Perhaps the other party members were also tired, some of them were talking in their sleep.
Aine was always looking for her older sister.
Even in Veronica’s case, he kept calling someone’s name.
‘Sally… ? Who is it?’
On the other hand, Alice and Louie seemed to be sleeping quite quietly.
Felice was very tired because he worked harder than anyone else during the day.
I ate a lot of dinner there, so I seemed to be more sleepy.
Drowsiness continued to come, and her eyes closed, but Felice endured.
I had set a time for my vigil, but there was no clock.
Since we do not know the exact time, each of us kept vigil to our conscience.
When the time seemed right, I decided to wake up the next person.
And as I said earlier, Felice was feeling quite guilty and indebted just for being here.
It seemed like a lot of time had passed, but what if I kept waking up too early?
That’s why Felice was worried about what to do if others couldn’t sleep properly because of her.
Besides, Louis, of course, is the person who will stand the vigil next to her.
Felice couldn’t wake Louis, who was sleeping soundly.
‘Okay, let’s stay vigil until Louis’ share.’
It was Felice who had thought of doing something like that and apologizing to Louis even a little.
However, the intention was good.
Felice worked quite hard today, and the time she stood on her watch was well past the originally set time.
So, Felice, who was ahead of his will, started dozing off.
In the end, she couldn’t overcome the fatigue and fell asleep.
—
I was going downhill.
Cars were passing by, and strangely, there were not many people on the street.
Something was awkward, but I couldn’t figure out why.
For some reason, I feel like I miss you.
On the right was the high school I attended.
However, he was puzzled by a slightly different appearance from what he knew.
Suddenly, the ground collapsed.
“Huh!”
I opened my eyes with the sensation of the ground shaking.
‘Oh, was it a dream?’
I shook my head wildly.
It was still dark all around.
The feeling of the ground collapsing at the end was so real that my heart still raced…
Kurreung.
“Wow!”
I let out a small scream.
Damn it wasn’t a dream
I quickly got up from my seat.
It seemed that I was the only one awake.
What I meant was that Felice, who was supposed to be on the watch, was also sleeping crouching near the bonfire.
Anyway, what just happened?
Was it really shaking, or was it that he wasn’t awake yet?
I went to Felice first.
Shaking her shoulder, who had been sleeping soundly, she woke up with a convulsive panic.
“Ugh!”
It was peaceful enough to forget that it was a practical evaluation during the day.
Anyway, this is a dark forest.
Although the academy has established a safe zone, it is also said to be dangerous.
So, I was disappointed with Felice.
Of course, she must have been sleepy.
“Felice, are you sleeping?”
My voice saying that was cold.
Despite being in the fire, Felice’s face turned white.
“Ahhh… ”
She trembles at my question.
No, it’s not like I’m afraid of that.
When you think that her reaction is abnormal for some reason.
As if the vibration I felt earlier wasn’t a lie, the ground shook again.
I could see the sand flowing down behind Felice.
“Be careful!”
I shouted that, grabbing Felice and dragging him towards me.
“Uh… !”
With a hair’s breadth, the sand where Felice was was collapsing.
And what appeared from underneath was a giant worm-shaped monster.
“Keek!”
Burning twigs from a bonfire that hadn’t been put out yet rained down on him.
Along with the smell of burning flesh, the guy let out a scream.
I cried.
“Everybody wake up!”
