The Only Male Student in the Academy - The Only Male Student in the Academy chapter 109

109. New Semester (1) – Part 2 begins

The place for a date is an underground canal.

“…….”

“…….”

Shelter for the underground canal that always gathers. There, Marie and I were sitting side by side.

There’s nothing special about doing it. I just read the books I borrowed from the library.

I put a book on the reading table, and when I finish, I turn the page with my right hand.

And my left hand…… He is holding Marie’s right hand.

‘…… I can’t concentrate.’

The text is…… I was barely able to read. The touch of Marie’s right hand, felt by her left hand, was soft.

When I glanced at Mari, her face was blushing as if it had become a blush.

I’m lowering my head, as if I couldn’t even meet your gaze.

“Marie.”

“Hee, hee…?!”

Marie is so startled that she just called her name.

… It’s a bit different from how you react to your boyfriend.

“If it’s hard, I’ll let go.”

“Oh, no…! Cow, I like holding hands…. W, I want to do this forever…!”

“…Forever is a bit difficult.”

You can’t be like this even when you go to the bathroom.

But it wasn’t that I really wanted to let go of Marie’s hand.

As expected, if I am like this, my heart will be excited.

Whether it’s the realization that he has a girlfriend, the temperature she feels from her hand, or the shy reaction of Marie.

Every little thing makes me feel happy and enjoyable.

‘… I don’t think I’ll be able to read the book at all.’

In the end, I ended up reading a book that should have taken 3 hours to read over 3 days.

Me and Marie’s love…… What is this feeling

Basically, since Marie is such a shy person, it is difficult for her to progress.

Marie is probably just by being with me, um so…… She said she would die of happiness…….

So, she’s still only capable of holding her hand and stroking her hair.

… Well, let’s put this part at your girlfriend’s pace.

To be honest, I also don’t have a strong desire to advance.

Of course, since I was born a man, there are so many things I want to do.

If I do everything I want to do without a break, I feel a little afraid that I will eventually forget my duty.

I can’t read the whole book just by holding hands and being together.

If this relationship deepens…… Wouldn’t he throw away everything, let alone his studies, no matter what happened to Lucius….

Considering that Mari could be hurt by taking the wrong pace, I wonder if a slow speed like a turtle would be fine for us.

For that reason…… Well, we were just going through the days of just being together.

Morning exercise together, breakfast together, lunch together, daily routine, dinner together….

Except for sleeping time, we spend most of our time together, in fact, this part is not much different from before we started dating.

It can be said that the only added skinship is that of holding hands or touching hair when no one else is looking.

… It’s also something that can’t be helped.

I think that I want to hold hands and walk, but as expected, if I see it in the eyes of others, I will be referred to the disciplinary committee.

Mari is well aware of this, so she hides that they are dating outside of the underground waterway.

It was fortunate that I had a very understanding girlfriend.

If you just spend a small, happy life like that, the vacation will end sometime in the middle of the day.

Class is starting.

You will see faces you have never seen before.

“Hello, Ariel.”

Morning view time in about three months.

As usual, I sit in the back seat by the window, and just like on vacation, Marie sits next to me.

Not many students had any doubts about Marie and I sitting together.

As a result of accumulating the build-up of hanging out with Marie during vacation, there were fewer people than I thought that it was strange that Mari and I were together even after the semester started.

Probably there won’t be any problem if I show you how to get along with Marie in the future.

As long as you don’t get caught dating.

“Claire, are you back?”

Anyway, what I want to say is that Marie is sitting next to me.

The place where Claire once sat can no longer belong to Claire.

As a result, Claire ended up sitting in the seat in front of me.

“You came back last night. Did you talk well with Ariel’s brother?”

“Is that so?”

Watching Claire smile as if begging for praise, I glanced at Marie.

… What should I do? Distance is a little difficult.

Clerand and I have been open to each other since a certain moment, but can we call this a friend….

It’s a rather complicated relationship to be called a friend, but that’s why you need to be a little careful here.

Anyway, Marie and I became lovers.

For example, if I see Marie getting along with a guy other than me…… What doesn’t it feel good

In other words, it would be the same for Marie.

In that sense, it would be right to be a little careful when talking to Claire.

“Hmm…?”

Claire tilts her head at my lack of reaction.

He looked at Mari and me alternately, as if he had noticed that I was looking at Mari.

Soon, he finds her necklace on Marie’s neck.

“Marie, is that a necklace you haven’t seen before?”

“Uh, uh, uh…”

“This design suits Mary very well. Congratulations, Miss Marie.”

“Eh? What, what…?”

“Well, what did I celebrate?”

Claire shrugs and looks at me again.

Marie looks at Claire curiously, but Claire doesn’t seem to give an answer.

… He probably noticed that Marie and I were dating at once.

Anyway, strangely enough, this guy has a good sense.

“Joshua decided to send exile to Servis Academy.”

Fortunately, it doesn’t seem like they’re going to make fun of us right away.

It was a bit unexpected, but nothing bad for me.

Anyway, what about Joshua?

“What is Servis Academy and what does exile mean?”

“It’s the same situation as Ariel. Servis Academy is an academy established by the Republic, but it has a shorter history than Philea or Beltark, and its level is one level lower.”

Joshua’s strength lies in the fact that he is the third son of Duke Beheritt.

At Beltark Academy, many people gathered around Joshua because he was the younger brother of Vincent, the student council president, and he came from an influential noble family.

From there, Joshua gained power, and he was able to wield that power to command people.

And it caused the same thing as the last time.

That’s why if you kick them out to another academy.

“There are only two close aides. However, since Vincent’s direct supervisor will accompany them, there will be no harm to Ariel.”

From noble mtl dot com

“There will be no meeting in the first place. I will never go to the Republic.”

“But you’re so kind. Didn’t Duke Beheritt back down? It wouldn’t have been strange if he excommunicated him.”

I can’t say anything about that. To be honest, it would have been nice if I could have never seen Joshua’s face again.

“So? Is that the end?”

“Of course it’s not the end. Well, I decided to compensate for this and that.”

Provided a certain amount of compensation to me, Claire, and the Knights.

In addition, donations were made to Philea Academy in the name of Duke Beheritt.

Reduction of customs duties in duchy only for families affected by this incident.

Other than that, it seems that there are political deals going on here and there, but….

It was nothing more than the feeling that the Duke of Beherit was giving away a lot in order to make ends meet.

However, if you listen closely, it’s not like Duke Beherit suffered a loss unilaterally.

Do you have a strong feeling of interacting with various families instead of giving away a lot?

It seemed that Vincent was trying to take advantage of Joshua’s wrongdoing and further increase his power.

“Lastly, he said he would send Ariel a present.”

“A gift?”

“Yes, a gift of apology.”

It is a gift of apology. For some reason, I felt it was a surprise.

Of course, I haven’t met Vincent since becoming Ariel, so I don’t know what kind of person he is.

There is only one thing I know about Vincent. It’s just the contents of the letter Vincent sent to Ariel.

As you can guess from the contents, Vincent is a fairly bleak and cold-hearted person, and he thought that he was a human full of heart who would cut Ariel at any time.

That’s why he honestly said that he would send me a gift of apology, which was unexpected.

“So what is that gift?”

“I’ll be back soon.”

“Soon?”

“Everyone, please be seated. We will begin the inquiry.”

I heard Professor Catherine’s voice after a long time.

When I glanced straight ahead, at some point, Professor Catherine was standing on top of the podium.

At Professor Catherine’s words, everyone sits down and keeps quiet, and Claire also turns her face away from me.

Professor Catherine opened her mouth when she judged that the magic combat class B class students were ready.

“Before the inquiry, I will make an announcement first. Today, an exchange student from Beltark Academy will come to Class B in the Magic Combat Department.”

Beltark Academy. And exchange students.

I felt that two keywords instantly drew attention to this side.

I…… There was no reaction.

It was the first time I had heard that an exchange student would come.

“Come in.”

The door to the classroom opens and a person enters.

… I came in, but the look and feel was very different from what I had imagined.

There was a dull sound at the threshold.

After that, a sound like dragging the floor continues, and a girl appears.

The sound of wheels.

The wheel of the wheelchair scratches the floor.

Apparently, the wheels of the wheelchair were turning automatically as if by magic.

Naturally, he climbed up in a wheelchair on top of a platform with a high chin.

Professor Katherine quietly removes the table that hides her appearance, drawing everyone’s attention.

“Hello. I’m Rachel from Beltark Academy starting today.”

There is no welcome applause.

There will be no one in here who thinks of applauding welcome.

You can also stand out by leaning on a wheelchair.

He was even wearing an eyepatch.

It is proof that you are blind.

Is that all?

A huge centipede was wrapped around her body.

“Gee, centipede…”

“What, what, is that…”

“Ah, this child. This child is a monster called ‘Jihajine’, and it replaces my sight and hearing.”

Rachel said as she stroked Jihajine.

When I calmed down my mind that was momentarily overwhelmed by the basement, I began to see many things.

The skin all over her body is covered with a pale blue color, as if she is suffering from a disease, and she is wrapped in a black priestly robe.

At first glance, she looked like a witch rather than a priest.

Looking at that face, you get the illusion that the dirt in her heart is being washed away, and you can see fine light powder flying around her.

The Miracle of Chastity .

It is a powerful blessing that can only be used by high priests who have kept celibacy.

It is said that no disease can make one’s body sick, no filth can taint one’s mind, and one will not know of filth until the moment one’s natural life is done.

“At Beltark Academy, I belonged to the Holy Warfare Department, but this time I transferred. Everyone gets along well.”

Rachel said so with a friendly smile.

Her eyes were hidden by an eyepatch, so I couldn’t see them.

She was definitely looking at me.
