I Only Talked About the Quest Content - Chapter 48



48 – Episode 6. Academy Life with Wrong Direction (3)

“Stay calm today as well. I will be back.”

The weekend is over and weekdays have returned. I felt like I was already drowsy at the thought of taking a boring class.

“Please come back.”

Clara and the entire assassination team, including the employees, bow their heads towards me. Lina saw that and snorted softly.

I passed them and got into the elevator. Lina followed me up and hit the close button repeatedly. You haven’t boarded the escort driver yet?

“Are you still angry?”

The elevator door closed before the driver got on. The elevator started going down.

“Those elves might stick their swords to your throat at any moment, so why are you so carefree? “Are you sure you trust those guys?”

“I believe it. Those elves won’t attack me now. “Trust me once.”

“What do you believe? These are the guys who tried to kill you once. “I can never believe it.”

“But you know? “If it weren’t for those kids, I would have been killed by demon worshipers before I came to the academy.”

“That’s… ! I know, but… ….”

I lost a little momentum. I think Lina’s good point is that she doesn’t always throw a tantrum just because she doesn’t like something, but that she admits what needs to be acknowledged.

“Try to become friends. “You might get help later.”

‘Let’s create a relationship with the elves. #2’ El Dorado said, recalling her entry permit she received after completing the quest.

Later, they would all go to the El Dorado Forest together, and she would also have to fight with Veral, so there was no harm in becoming friends with her just for that time.

“That won’t happen.”

“You don’t know what people do?”

“You keep… Guiding people to become friends with those guys is really strange, isn’t it? “You even broke your promise not to let women into the dormitory.”

“Lina, it’s you. Do employees also treat you like women?”

“…… “Why is that?”

Lina asks carefully. Are you wary of being persuaded by me? It’s cute.

“I have a deeper sense of intimacy with Clara and the elves than with the servants, but I don’t see them as women. Do you understand what this means?”

“…… So?”

Lina accepted it indifferently, but it was clear that she understood what he meant.

“That’s just it.”

As soon as I arrived at the first floor and the elevator door opened, I went outside. Lina quickly followed me and stood next to me, looking around her and speaking softly.

“But if I stay close, someday…” “It might work.”

“Okay…… ?”

“Yes.”

She chuckled as she saw Lina shouting excitedly. I slowly approached her and whispered.

“Then I will hug you then.”

“What, what?!”

After being dazed for about three seconds, she clenched her fists.

“This rice, this pervert…” !”

Lina, who is red from her face to her neck, slaps me. It hurt because her fist was heavy, but it was bearable, perhaps because she was controlling her strength.

“Why are you saying that…?” !”

“If you like it, can’t you do it?”

“You, you…” Really…… !”

He doesn’t hit me as hard as before. It meant that he didn’t dislike Lina that much. If she sets the tone and goes out seriously, she might really let her body go.

As we were going to school, having a fight full of affection, an unexpected person appeared in front of us.

“Are you making love in the morning?”

“Princess?”

Today too, Mine with a ponytail was watching us while holding a bag. Lina and I bowed our heads to greet her.

“Why are you here?”

“As you can see, we are now getting ready to go to school.”

Miné said, pointing to a golden carriage parked on one side.

“Princess Mine wasn’t sleeping in the student council room.”

“Is this sarcasm?”

“It’s a joke.”

“If you want to get hit, just say so. “I can hit you properly.”

If I get hit by Mine, I don’t think I’ll end up with a fracture, so I’ll have to stop. In the meantime, he asked Lina, “What kind of courtesy do you have for the princess?” He said and hit her on the arm. It stings.

“Don’t be too angry. “Senior Mine.”

“… ….”

Mine frowns as I sneer.

The academy has a rule of not asking for identity, so it is not wrong to call someone a senior. Because I am a 2nd grader and she is a 3rd grader.

“Ha. “You really know, but you don’t know.”

She let out her sigh.

“Abel Sirius.”

“Yes?”

“I want to talk to you briefly, so please follow me. “Get in my carriage.”

Lina and I looked at each other almost at the same time at the unexpected suggestion. Mine was staring at me, pointing to her own carriage with her thumb.

“Yes? What is that…….”

“Abel—”

The escort driver who came down late joined our conversation and, upon seeing Mine, quickly bowed her head. Mine didn’t even look at him. At my gesture, the knight straightens her back.

“Are you acting stupid now? Get in the carriage, she said. “I will drop you off in front of the Public Administration building.”

“…… “Is that so?”

I looked back at Lina and said. She looked back and forth between me and Mine, and her cheek twitched. I was displeased with the idea of me riding in a carriage alone with Mine.

However, no matter how much of an academy she was, Lina could not argue with the princess’s words and could only nod her head.

“…… Okay. Let’s have lunch together later. Have a safe trip.”

“Okay. “You also train hard.”

I patted her gently on the back twice and headed toward Mine’s carriage. Mine naturally stood next to me and said.

“We get along well.”

“Because we are childhood friends.”

“…… “Has Lina forgiven you?”

“Well, I don’t know. “She never asked directly.”

She didn’t bother to ask if I had forgiven her. There was no reason for me to bring up her bad memories.

Anyway, I could tell what kind of feelings she had towards me just by looking at her reaction towards me. She said she loved me too.

“I see.”

“Anyway, do you have something to talk about, so you’re asking me to get in the carriage?”

“I’ll tell you when I get in the carriage.”

I stood in front of the imperial carriage, wondering about Mine.

I wondered how much money I had spent on this, and I smiled as I looked up at the sturdy, gold-rimmed carriage.

Anyway, people of this era really like to show off.

I put my foot on the carriage. Just before going in, I looked towards Lina. She was quietly watching me. I shook her hand moderately. I entered her carriage only after I saw her waving her hand after me.

As soon as I sit down, Mine takes a seat diagonally across from me. Looks like she doesn’t want to sit across from him.

“We are leaving, princess!”

The carriage shook once with the driver’s shout. Only about a minute after the carriage departed did she open her mouth.

“…… Abel Sirius.”

“Yes?”

“How did it get into His Majesty’s heart?”

“I heard you liked it?”

“… What?”

I see.

I thought I spoke well because the emperor handed me the indulgence much more lightly than I expected.

But he didn’t expect that he would like it. Apparently, there was some karma that Abel had committed.

“Did your Majesty say anything?”

“Yes. “Nothing in particular was said.”

“That can’t be possible…” ….”

Mine muttered while covering her mouth. After a while, she let out a disgruntled breath.

“Okay. What… “I guess it would be good.”

“What’s going on?”

“What’s going on? “There are so many.”

She turned her eyes toward me with an expressionless expression. It felt like he was glaring at me somehow.

Before Mine could speak, she sighed again. Now, just looking at my face makes me sigh.

“I will speak bluntly. Abel Sirius.”

I was looking at Mine, and her tiredness made her yawn suddenly and I turned her head.

“Please join the student council.”

“…… ?”

Her yawn stopped at Mine’s words. He looked at her with her mouth open.

“Keep her mouth shut.”

“… Yes. “No, yes?”

“This is an order from His Majesty the Emperor.”

“hahahaha! Joke-“

“Do I look like the kind of person who would joke like you?”

“… “It doesn’t seem that way.”

As I was looking at Mine with a straight face, I realized what she was trying to say. If she wasn’t a princess, she would have been so serious about everything that she wouldn’t have listened to the jokes.

“She thought about where to put you, but she decided to put you in the General Administration position. Well, she doesn’t have anything for you to do. “It is only nominally included.”

“Is that so?”

“Isn’t that what you want to do anyway?”

“What… “That’s true.”

“Still, participate in the meetings held once a week. At least His Majesty the Emperor can ask what you are doing and how things are going.”

I couldn’t shake off my doubts even as she nodded.

I couldn’t figure out Frey’s intention to include me in the student council.

The student council is a place where sincere and exemplary students belong, and it is not a place that anyone can easily join. It was an order she couldn’t understand, especially considering Abel’s crazy behavior at her academy last year.

“But why does His Majesty want to include me in the student council?”

“How would I know? “You will know.”

Something unusual is about to happen, including the fact that he liked it and Frey trying to get him into the student council.

I think something really bad will happen in the future.

For example, it interferes with my diamond spoon unemployed life…… !

“Anyway, it’s His Majesty’s order. Even if you don’t like it, you have to follow it. “You know, right?”

“Yes. I know.”

However, having experienced social life, I never show my dissatisfaction outwardly. My lips try to stick out, but I hold back. Town!

“And.”

What else is there?

“I met Ruco Cat over the weekend.”

“Oh. How was it?”

“…… You seem to know about Ruco Cat. “Ruco Cat doesn’t seem to know anything about you.”

“It’s natural not to know. “It’s just something I personally found out.”

“Did you personally look into it?”

Her eyes narrowed. Even though she was just looking at her without saying a word, she began to anticipate what Mine would say.

“You’re not only interested in saints and dark elves, but you’re also interested in beastmen…? ? What on earth are you planning? “Why have you been pretending to be a mangnanana until now?”

From Noble mtl dot com

They say Mine also pretended to be a bastard.

If you think about it, Abel, who was trash until last year, changed overnight, so it makes sense to think of it that way.

The idea that she is possessed is impossible unless there is a hint.

“…… You will find the answer if you listen to it from His Majesty the Emperor. “What am I trying to do?”

“What?”

“Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor liked it because of that story.”

To be honest, I had thought of an excuse in advance, but I can’t tell you how difficult it was to actually say that in front of the emperor. His head was overloaded as he checked over and over again to see if there were any contradictions.

It’s a shame because the results aren’t bad.

“But if there’s anything I can say to my senior right now, there’s only one thing.”

I spread my index finger and grinned.

“This is also one of my actions for the princess.”

In the original work, Mine moved on her own because she needed him, but now that the time has come, Quest and I will have to lead Mine like the other supporting actors.

In the future, Mine must become a replacement for Payton.

While preventing Payton from trying to kill Frey, we had to create a situation where Frey could officially recognize Mine.

For that to happen, Mine had to build up a track record, so for that to happen, it was necessary to lay the groundwork in advance.

“So, if I ask you anything later, please do it without saying a word. “It’s all done with thought in mind.”

“…… I don’t understand. Why do you keep saying things like you’re on my side or for my sake?”

Because he is the main character.

That reason was enough.

“Well, I don’t know. “Maybe the senior likes her?”

“You bastard…. “Did you seduce women like that?”

“Don’t take it seriously.”

I smiled and shook her hand. It was an action that could have seemed arrogant, but Mine didn’t say anything. She was only making a very faint impression.

“Although I said it as a joke, I am sincere in saying that it is for the princess.”

“Huh….”

“Sparring with Lina is the same. “It was my way of communicating that allowed Rina to defeat Princess Mine.”

Although she didn’t think about this and act, if her sky-high momentum weakens and her emotions begin to show, she can create other possibilities.

“You’ve been working hard toward that goal, but you won’t be able to achieve it. “There are clear limits to achieving that goal alone.”

“Goal…… ?”

“You know, right?”

“You, no way…” !”

It was the moment when she was about to shout at me.

Rock!

The carriage stopped. Mine was looking up at me blankly. This seemed like a good idea for now.

“Prince Abel Sirius, you have arrived!”

“They say it has arrived.”

I said as I stood up.

“… I won’t play much of a role, but I will join the student council. For the princess. Because I am on the princess’s side. Then, cheer up today too.”

I smiled brightly and quickly got out of the carriage. We’ll meet again in the afternoon anyway, but since we won’t be alone, I won’t be able to interrogate you.

Please think about me a little more, princess.

Anyway, it’s time to give out quests related to Princess Mine, but why haven’t they been given out yet?

I entered the building, cursing the gloomy guy who gave me the quest.

· * * *

After lunch with Lina, I was about to return to the department building before afternoon classes started, and there was something sitting on the bench.

Looking at the thin tail that was gently swaying and the cat ears that occasionally flapped, I immediately recognized that she was a Ruco cat. Because there is only one beastman in the academy.

By the way, I really want to touch that tail.

“Hello.”

“Hi!”

Ruko hiccuped as soon as he saw me. I didn’t do anything?

The pupils of the light blue eyes looking at me were slit vertically like those of an animal. I was surprised and opened my eyes wide, so I could see it very well.

“Are you Ruko Cat?”

How was it possible to show only the characteristics of a beast without being so different from a human?

Suddenly, I want to live among various types of beastmen. I thought it would be fun to visit the place where the beast people live later.

“Yes, yes…” ….”

“I heard you’re a magic circle genius?”

“Well, I’m not a genius… …. Wow, that’s an undeserved title….”

“Really?”

I think I’m a genius.

Her implementation of a magic circle that maximizes the efficiency of magic would be a level of admiration even for magic department professors. Me too.

“But why are you eating bread here?”

At my question, she flinched and shrugged her shoulders.

“Ah, people are still uncomfortable… ….”

“I see. If someone bothers you, just mention my name. My name is-“

“I know. Ah, you are Prince Abel Sirius, right?”

“Oh. “You know, right?”

“Yes… ….”

Ruko nodded her head with a stiff movement. Judging from the bad expression on her face, it seemed like she didn’t mean it in a positive way.

Since she just started doing good deeds, her juniors may not know much about her yet.

“I’m glad you already know my name. Do you like it.”

As I spoke with a smile, her light blue eyes shook violently, and soon water began to form around her eyes.

Oh, why are you crying?

I suddenly became a trash senior who made my juniors cry.
