I Will Carry as an Academy Veteran - I Will Carry as an Academy Veteran chapter 78

78

Enjoy the cool summer with the heroine by the sea! Summer event starts!

What this means is that it was the advertisement slogan for the Salenium Saga that was always posted on subway station billboards during the summer vacation season.

I remember it was written in big letters below an illustration of several heroines in swimsuits jumping at the beach.

Of course, it’s a high-altitude fishing. The Salenium Saga is not that kind of healing game.

It’s quite a frustrating bait in many ways, but if there were no such events, that wouldn’t be the case either.

“Wow!”

“Oh…”

“It’s the sea! I’ve never seen it before, it’s really beautiful!”

“The sea!”

“Hmph, it’s decent enough to look at… huh? Let go of me!”

They each put on their swimsuits and dashed onto the sandy beach.

#### Translation:

Of course, I’m just walking at the very back.

The six girls run ahead and jump on the sandy beach. Ebenis is forced to go along, with sloppy timing and posture.

If I had seen it head-on, I would have burst out laughing, just like the scene I saw in a subway station advertisement.

“…But still, you don’t lie.”

“Adrian, come quickly!”

Raina.

The guy who got excited alone came running back and grabbed my arm. With his right hand, he points to the wide sea and pulls me with all his strength.

“It hurts, Raina.”

“Oh, sorry.”

That’s how everyone gathered under the parasol.

They all looked at me, staggering.

“Adrian? What do you think?”

“Think? What is there to think about?”

In response, Raina put her hand on her waist and said,

“It’s our swimsuits! Opportunities like this don’t come often!”

Even if you call it thinking…

There’s nothing to say because it’s exactly the same as what I’ve seen several times in the original work.

Raina is wearing a black tube top bikini set without any patterns.

Relevrian is wearing a light green swimsuit with a wrap skirt.

Miliz is wearing a white set with lace details and a windbreaker as a top.

Karen is wearing the same swimsuit I helped her put on, and Ebenis is wearing a luxurious swimsuit alone.

With white accents and gold thread, and even cotton. It emphasized beauty while minimizing exposure. She even wore a wide-brimmed straw hat with ribbons flying on her head.

“…What are you looking at? Trash.”

“Tsk.”

“What’s wrong? Why are you sticking out your tongue!”

And Supple…

What’s that?

Isn’t that a navy blue standard swimsuit used during swimming time at the Selenium Academy? Why did she wear something like that?

Anyway, everyone put on their swimsuits, and some couldn’t resist and jumped into the sea already.

“Catch!”

“Ahahahaha! Catch it!”

They splash water at each other and have fun.

Yeah.

Good things are good.

I sit under the parasol and watch them like this.

“Adrian, don’t you want to go in the water?”

“I’m not really in the mood.”

“Hmm, I see…”

That’s when it happened.

Swoosh, and my body floated up, and the guys approached me.

[[1]]

“Ladies and gentlemen, Adrian won’t go in the water.”

“Is that true, Adrian?”

“Hmph. Nonsense.”

“Well, Senior, why don’t you give it a try too!”

“I don’t know what you’re up to, but don’t do it for now.”

But it was too late!

However, these guys all grabbed me with their own magic powers and threw me into the sea!

“Hey…!”

With the sensation of floating, the cold seawater rushed into my body.

Splash!

Ouch…! It’s cold…! My bones are freezing…!

So this is why I said I wouldn’t go in…!

Stumbling from the place where it reaches my throat, I stood up and brushed off the water dripping from my head for a moment, and they all stared at me in confusion.

“…What’s going on?”

Their gaze is scary.

“No, no! Well, since even Adrian has come in, let’s all enjoy it together! Come on, everyone, attack!”

“Wait! Don’t splash water at me! Why only me…!”

Hey!

Who was that guy who just splashed water at me with such force that it felt like my face would fly off!

* * *

Anyway, the sea episode has officially begun.

As expected, everyone had a great time.

The Salenium Saga is a game where everyone dies except for the subculture. Maybe that’s why everything they usually do in anime came out.

“hehehe, take this! It’s my spike!”

First, beach volleyball.

Paah! The ball flew.

“Chahahaha!”

Relbrian, who let the wind flow all over his body, rushed forward and reached up to block it, and then…

“Eight!”

Millize jumped and hit.

“Hee… Oops?”

Supplé bounced from the opposite side.

“Take this!”

Kallen passed it up.

And…

“Hmph.”

Evanis slammed the ground with a thud together with the cow and pulled his arm back towards the ball that soared into the sky.

Tsk.

Judging by the position of his arm, his target is me.

I have to catch the ball, so he’s giving it his all.

Damn that guy.

Before long, with a tearing sound in the air, her strength of 20 manifested through her hands.

I can’t lose. You must block it!

She waited with determination.

Paaah!

The ball that touched the guy’s hand burst without a trace, and only the “air” pushed by strength 20 became a bullet, passing by my side.

Kugooooooong……

The bullet dug into the sand, leaving a large hole on the other side of the coast.

Everyone looked at the hole and looked at Ebenis.

“Did you hit me with this, you stupid guy.”

He turned his head and scratched his cheek in response.

“……Uh. I didn’t know it would burst. I’m sorry.”

No, wouldn’t it be more strange if the ball didn’t burst when you hit it with all your strength?

Anyway, beach volleyball ended absurdly due to Ebenis’s blunder, and next, Reina brought watermelon, eye patches, and wooden swords from somewhere.

“Here, here!”

“Here!”

“Why should I be next to the watermelon?”

“It’s fun!”

Caren’s wooden sword narrowly passed by my head. In addition, the guys, including Souffle and Milige, each held a wooden sword.

“Hey!”

“Milige, there’s nothing over there.”

“Hey……!”

“Souffle, isn’t the direction completely opposite?”

Fortunately, I could keep my head safe.

The excited players became exhausted for a moment.

Let’s all lie down and rest for about 5 minutes.

“Let’s go back into the water! We’ve done everything outside!”

No, Reina.

Where does all that energy of yours come from?

“……Aren’t you going to have lunch?”

“Lunch? I’ll eat everything at dinner! I’ve prepared an amazing barbecue!”

The guys, not tired at all, went back into the water to play.

“Milige, look at this, it’s a seashell.”

“It’s pretty……”

On the other side of the beach, two people are doing something.

Caren is swimming alone in the distant coast.

“……Senior Relvrian, your swimsuit is pretty.”

“Well, in my opinion, Ebenis’s junior seems to be the prettiest……”

“Oh, that’s right. It seems that Sohujak gave the most strength, right?”

“W-Who said I gave strength?!”

Everyone seemed to have shed their initial awkwardness and grown closer to each other.

In a way, it could be said that we had achieved the primary goal of this journey.

Tired of sitting on the tube and gazing idly at the sky, I lay down on a mat, staring up at the canopy of the parasol.

“I’m going crazy.”

My arms wouldn’t move.

Likewise, my legs remained still.

Even lifting my head seemed difficult.

Was it really this exhausting to just doze off for a bit?

Everything became hazy…

“I… I’m at 8 in terms of stamina…”

With those words.

Swoosh, my eyes closed.

* * *

When I woke up again, I realized that a blanket covered my body.

The side of my face felt oddly warm. As I turned my head, I saw a crackling campfire.

And as the back of my head felt strangely cozy, I lifted my head and…

Froze for a moment.

“Oh, you’re awake?”

“Reyna, is this…?”

“My goodness, is it unacceptable to offer a knee to a sleeping fiancé?”

As I tried to get up, a finger pressed firmly against my forehead.

“…Was I asleep?”

“No, it’s okay. We just finished not long ago. Everyone is hungry and waiting for the meal now.”

What? The sun has completely set?

How many hours have passed? These guys…

Looking around, Suprême and Millésime were leaning on each other, asleep against the parasol pole.

“It’s okay to stop now. Thank you.”

“Meat will be coming soon.”

Finally.

“You’ve waited. Miss, and everyone.”

In the distance, the butler from Frommern and the other servants brought a large basket filled with various foods.

“Go, grill!”

“Is it… dinner?!”

The first-year students, who had fallen deeply asleep, woke up again, gathering around the campfire to cook meat on the grill.

The problem was, these guys didn’t know how to grill meat, so I had to grab the tongs and flip everything.

“Adrien, can we eat now?”

“Wait. It’s not fully cooked yet. Evniss! Don’t touch it from the corner! Don’t make a scene!”

“Well, I couldn’t help it! My hand just slipped! I’m innocent!”

The world called that a sin.

“Adrien, can we eat now?”

“Reyna, it’s been three seconds since I spoke. Please wait another minute.”

When I told them to eat everything, I witnessed the pan being emptied in an instant. Are girls these days really such good eaters?

Grilling, eating, grilling, eating, grilling, and eating, before we knew it, mealtime had passed, and everyone started nodding off in their seats.

This isn’t a leisure trip…

It feels like being a teacher on a school trip with the kids.

“The beach at night is cold. Aren’t you wearing swimwear? You’ll catch a cold if you fall asleep here. Everyone, go inside and sleep.”

“Ugh, Adrian, just five more minutes…”

“No.”

As I shook the bell in the basket, a servant appeared.

“What can I help you with?”

“Tidy up the remaining seats and have everyone move to their own rooms.”

“Yes, understood. I’ll call the other servants, so please wait a moment. Oh, and Adrian, Mr. Frommon is waiting for you. Please go over there.”

“I don’t know why he’s looking for me, but understood.”

The servant left.

“hehehe, hehehehe…”

“…What will happen if they sleep with their bellies full?”

After covering the sleeping kids with the blankets under the basket, I picked up my staff and walked along the sandy shore.

As I walked to a corner of the beach where the mansion was barely visible, he was waiting in the rocky crevice.

“Adrian, you’ve come. I’m relieved. Mila seems to have conveyed my message well.”

“Why did you summon me?”

“I’ll ask you directly.”

His usually warm face was now incredibly cold as he spoke.

“What do you think of our young lady?”

“…”

Hmm.

I expected this to come up.
