There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field - There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field chapter 49

49. reshuffle

An eventful first week has come to an end.

I was very grateful that the holiday came when I didn’t have to do anything.

Looking back on things day by day, I felt like I had new experiences, so it was a good but exhausting day.

Lying on the bed, I remembered the sea Raven had shown me.

The emerald-colored scenery and the sound of the waves were drawn in my head.

I really wanted to go there again.

Luna was taking a nap on my arm.

I couldn’t move for fear that she would wake me up, and I stayed still in that position.

Perhaps the aftereffects of Seria’s lies were severe, and she refused to separate from me.

She kept asking me similar questions to see if she wanted to be confirmed.

“Aren’t you going to the hero…?”

“I’m prettier than the hero, right?”

“You’re going to marry me, right?”

Whenever that happened, I teased her and comforted her.

I didn’t want to see Luna ruined because of me.

In fact, seeing Luna run away during tea time was a fresh shock to me as well.

Luna shows me the image of a girl of her age who expresses affection and jokes with me, but she never had that image in the demon world.

Except for Amelia, no one in Master’s castle could treat her comfortably.

Her expression was always cold, and the servants worked hard not to go against her heart.

daughter of the devil. Having inherited the blood of an apex predator, she definitely exudes a charismatic aura.

That she turns her back on Seria’s words…

It was probably because of my unique magic.

If it wasn’t for this, Luna might have had a fight with Seria. That’s a problem, though.

I stroked Luna’s silver hair.

“…if you wake up, I’ll wake you up…”

Luna seemed to wake up at my touch.

“Your face looks so comfortable.”

“Because you are by my side.”

Luna smiled Betsy’s eyes.

She was the one who spoke sweet words with half-closed eyes.

“What is that.”

I laughed too.

Luna stood up and spread her arms.

“…hug me.”

“You can hug me.”

Luna shook her head.

“Sirius. Hug me as hard as you care about me.”

Even though the night and day have changed once, do you still want to be confirmed?

I opened my arms wide and hugged her tightly.

“it’s okay?”

I thought I would be satisfied with this, so I tried to loosen my arms.

“Not enough.”

Luna threw me onto the bed as she hugged me.

“Let’s stay like this a little longer.”

Luna caressed my cheek.

I nodded.

Luna caressed the cut she had made on the nape of my neck yesterday.

“Sirius. Don’t cover this as it is and go as it is.”

“Yes?”

It was a biting wound for anyone to see.

I’m sure there will be misunderstandings here and there…

“Just openly show it in front of the warrior.”

It was difficult to answer, so I tried to cover it up.

“Are you jealous?”

I scooped up Luna because I wanted to tease her a little bit.

“huh.”

Luna answered firmly.

I chuckled.

“Seria has never been in bed with me before?”

And that wasn’t all.

No matter how you think about it, if you think of the two as competing, it was a fight with so many advantages for Luna.

coercion of my actions. The demon king holding my lifeline. Master who gave me grace.

What kind of expression would she make if she knew Seria about all these causal relationships?

I thought I would probably despair.

And that day when I find out that she herself was the reason I stepped into the demon realm where all of that happened.

What will Seria think?

“Sirius… what do you think of a hero?”

Luna asked me in a very serious tone.

“Um… isn’t it like a family…?”

Ever since my relationship with Luna changed, I have always thought about my feelings for Seria.

I couldn’t say it was ever the same as before.

There is no change in being a valuable person.

To be honest, I thought my feelings as a member of the opposite s*x had faded a lot.

Even while watching Seria, I was more concerned about Luna’s reaction.

But the day Seria tried to jump off the railing of my room.

When I thought of the moments I had recently kissed her, I felt old memories welling up.

what i missed so much

Nostalgia for the things I’ve lost.

Memories of a very happy childhood spent with Seria.

is this love Is it regret?

It was me who didn’t know.

“Family… family…”

Luna pondered over my answer.

“Sirius. Do humans marry within their families?”

“huh?”

It was a culture that was difficult to imagine to marry within the family.

There might be something, but I knew it wasn’t common.

“So. Are there people who marry into their families?”

“Very few? As far as I know.”

“okay?”

Luna smiled brightly.

“Then you won’t marry your family either!”

She pressed her cheek against my face.

It’s not a real family.

The golden holiday came to an end after lying around in the room with Luna.

The homeroom teacher told the staff to tell everyone to come to the gymnasium by 10:00 in the morning.

and the same morning. Just like the last tea time that was like a chaos, all the students of the first class gathered.

The homeroom teacher appeared with a weak gait today as well.

After knowing that he was Raven’s teacher, looking back, he was a disciple, a teacher, and a very consistent person.

“Um. Yes. Have you all gotten closer?”

“yes!”

Of the 12 people, Arin was the only one who actively responded.

Is it the psychology of wanting to boast that you have become friends with a dragon? that.

The homeroom teacher seemed embarrassed by our blunt response.

“Um, yes. Looking at the faces, at least they don’t look awkward.”

It was true.

Actually, it was because I thought it was nice to see my party kids this morning.

Yuri greeted me in the morning with a smile, and Kane pointed out with a hand on his shoulder, asking if he had come.

Raven didn’t say anything, but gave a nod. That was enough.

Isn’t it a more affectionate party than Luna’s party?

First of all, I thought my party was better in that there was no Alfonso, who had that taste of rice.

I thought about whether or not to tell Luna about the affair with Alfonso on holiday, but in the end I didn’t.

Alfonso would surely be scolded by Luna the moment he said it, but he didn’t want to spoil the atmosphere of the other party.

“Okay. Then we have to move on to the next step.”

The homeroom teacher sat down on the floor and talked.

“Guys. This party of warriors. No, not even the warriors. When do you think ordinary parties fail most miserably when performing their mission the most?”

“As you said, isn’t it time we can’t turn our backs on each other?”

It was Leon who was copying exactly what the homeroom teacher had said before.

“Nice story, Leon. A party without trust certainly doesn’t do its job. That’s why I actually gave you time to get close to you. Another person.”

“I think it’s time for absolute brute force to run out.”

Carrying a huge bow on his back, Cairo spoke in a low tone.

“Absolute power… Hmm… It’s a true story. But if you lack power, whether you train again or use other methods, opportunities will come if you raise your individual capabilities. It’s a temporary failure. It’s not the most disastrous way. .”

The expressions on the faces of the students who were listening to the story gradually changed to puzzled ones.

Neither did I.

I knew from before that the homeroom teacher was not an ordinary person, but I had no idea what I wanted to say.

“Looking at the lack of answers, I guess not everyone is that creative.”

The homeroom teacher glanced over at us standing by party.

“If not, I’ll tell you the answer I think.”

“The party that fails the most miserably… is a party where a trusted colleague betrays you.”

There was seriousness in the homeroom teacher’s eyes, who always seemed to be joking around.

“If a traitor appears one after another, the party won’t be able to function. It’s a natural step.”

“But the scary thing is that the more sticky the party, the more the remaining party members will collapse.”

“The more severe the trauma, the more anxious I feel about recruiting new allies.”

“And doubts about my existing colleagues also rise. I wonder if this person will stay with me until the end.”

“Like a chain reaction, a single betrayal like that slowly gnaws away at many people, eventually leaving them so helpless that they don’t even have the strength to stand up again.”

“Betrayal itself is not scary. It’s enough to fill people up with power reinforcement. But you have to be most careful about the aftereffects.”

It was something I had never thought of.

When I came to the academy, I thought the contents of the class of the warrior party that I expected would be an obvious story with an emphasis on collaboration.

It made sense, but it was still unclear what the hell he was going to do with us.

After looking at our reaction for a while, the homeroom teacher immediately answered my question.

“I will reorganize the party from now on.”

All of our classmates were shocked.

I talked about it as a temporary party, but I didn’t know it would be disbanded so early.

And the homeroom teacher even gave me free time saying that he wants us to get close.

“Evaluation will be in one month. We will reveal the contents of the test at that time.”

The homeroom teacher put a smile on his lips.

“In the newly assigned party, prepare a strategy to beat the other party somehow.”

“The more information you share with each other, the more you know each other’s strengths. Maybe even weaknesses.”

“Don’t choose any means. The demons you’re going to deal with are the ones who often use worse moves than the worst you can imagine.”

It’s a pretty unconventional map.

I don’t know if this type of practice will be of any help to a party of warriors representing the human world.

Isn’t it a foreshadowing that someone will betray the warrior’s party only like this?

“Also, in order to stimulate you guys, I have prepared a penalty under the authority of a teacher.”

We were all taken aback by the words that followed.

“In the party that ranked last in the first evaluation, we decided to drop two people to second class.”

A chilly air filled the gymnasium.

“How is it? Are you all ready to bite each other seriously?”

I thought the homeroom teacher grinning like a psycho.
