What I have to deal with now is the following. To flatten Staffin Corroman’s nose by training in spearmanship until the start of the Melguard Tournament. The second step is to remove the old cryptids that grew in the 2nd greenhouse, absorb Arisha’s magical power, and advance into the 2nd greenhouse at the same time.
Especially, dead tree cases must be dealt with quickly. According to A1, the old tree growing in the greenhouse is connected to the tree Arisha made outside through its roots. If the guys who sealed the mana in Arisha’s tree did a little research, they would be able to easily figure out where the roots were connected.
In addition, if you want to, you can pour magic power into the roots and control the tree man to get involved in my greenhouse. It just needs to be blocked out.
“By the way, young boy. Didn’t you say there was something you wanted to say to me?”
That was Sora’s question. I put down the boiled egg I was eating.
“Actually, I was going to ask if I could get help from the youkai living in Arisha’s mansion to practice spearmanship. But I have some business to deal with, so I’ll put it on hold.”
“I see. It’s exam time and I’m really sorry this happened.”
“I think so too. However, it may be an opportunity to improve my skills through practice.”
As I said before, Arisha Life’s party is basically composed of 5 people. Even if it’s not a game, in real life, a party of 5 is established as a rule. That means that 5 people is the most efficient.
I’m thinking of forming a 5-person party for this Dead Tree Raid as well. Sora and me first. And the three of them, including Eldenia, were gathered, and one seat was going to call Princess Lalicia von Meloyer.
I didn’t want to involve her in her greenhouse work. But this time, it’s related to A1’s toy factory work, and Lalicha and I have promised to work together to get through it. If you think about it that way, calling her would be an appropriate action.
The last digit has already been decided. At first, I thought of calling a nine-tailed fox living in Arisha’s mansion, but it doesn’t suit this case. Isn’t Arisha’s magical power sealed in the main body of the World Tree connected by the roots of an old tree growing in greenhouse 2?
I plan to recruit someone who can absorb mana.
“Sora. For that reason, the shop is closed today. I think I need to take a day off from lectures today and prepare in advance.”
“You are taking a break from lectures. Aren’t the school days dangerous?”
“That is why this issue is so important and urgent. We need to deal with it quickly.”
“… Okay.”
Sora doesn’t seem to like it when I skip lectures because of my ancestor’s karma. However, Sora, who knew that this kind of evil broke out because she used the ring outside, did not continue her words.

I came to the Melgard dormitory with the idea that I should meet Lerisha first. It’s early, but if it’s the industrious Larisha, she might be cantering nearby. The investigation of the incident seemed to be ongoing, as the guards were still hanging around.
“Hey, have you seen Princess Lelisha?”
“If it were the princess, she would be in the playground.”
“Thank you.”
After catching passing students and asking questions, I was able to meet Lerisha. She was running in her gym clothes and with bands on her limbs. The playground wasn’t just Lerisha.
As this class has many students who want to train themselves, it is early in the morning, but you can see many students exercising. Perhaps the exam period also played a part.
Melgard Tournament. Melgard Survival. Melgard Challenge. Melgard equestrian events, etc. There are quite a lot of types of competitions held in this class, so it must be that you are exercising to get a good score.
There was one among them who made me cringe, and that was Steffen Corroman, whom I was supposed to duel with.
As he wielded her spear, he glanced at Lerisha with her sidelong glance, but Lerisha didn’t even look at him. Anyway, since I came to meet Lerry Sha, I stepped on her stone steps and entered her playground.
Bang!
When I step on the ground in the playground, dust rises with a tremendous sound. Someone threw something blunt in front of me. I wondered what it was and waited for the dust to clear. When the dust clears, you see a man with rocks hanging all over his body.
He sees me and gets up, grinning wide enough to show his gums. Then the golden molars caught the light and glistened. It was Melgard Senior Senior Valandis who worked with me during the previous Melgard Dormitory Freezing Incident.
“Woros! Come on. Are you here to see me?”
“Hello, Senior Valandis. Were you exercising?”
“Ha ha ha, yes! I couldn’t sleep because I was so excited thinking I was going to the Melgard Tournament.”
“Looking at the sweat you shed, you must have been working out for quite a while. It must have been difficult to get up early in the morning, but you are amazing.”
Let me say so. Valandis grabs his stomach and laughs.
“hahahahaha, actually, I didn’t sleep. Yesterday at 9:00 PM, I tried to relax briefly, but it’s already this time, what? hahahahaha”
“… You are amazing.”
“Are there even great things? Well then, Woros. To increase exercise efficiency, wear the suit I developed.”
Saying so, Balandis hands you a rope with stones wrapped around him. I shook my head and refused.
“Sorry. I didn’t come to exercise, I came to see Princess Lerisha.”
“The princess? Hmm. Then it was not my place to intervene. I’m sorry for wasting your time ha ha ha”
“No. I felt a little better because I met seniors.”
I was a bit tired with a lot of work to do, but seeing Valandis always smiling with the same expression made me feel a bit cheerful. First of all, I bowed my head to him and approached Lerisha. Then Staffin Corroman, who was exercising, spots me and approaches me with a sinister smile.
“Who is this? Why. Have you finally realized your mistake and come to apologize?”
“… You fall out Because I came to see Princess Lelisha.”
“Who meets who? Even if this bastard had a swollen liver, it was properly swollen.”
Staffin starts laughing at me. Lerisha, who had spotted us at that time, was seen walking behind Staffin. Staffin, who does not know the fact, continues to speak thorny words toward me.
“Woros. There is nothing to go to the test. You in this place—”
“What are you doing?”
“Ah, it’s no big deal… Princess!?”
Staffin jumps backwards, startled by the sudden approach of Lerisha. He loosens his wrinkled expression and smiles brightly.
“Princess, this Woros Blood, no one else, came to see you, what is it? Do not worry. I’ll kick you out-“
“Whoa, Woros… Are you here to see me?”
“I came because I have something to tell you.”
Lerisha cut off Staphine and started talking to me. Staffin sees it and makes a surprised gesture, opening his mouth. I chinned towards Staffin who was doing so.
It meant to go away because it is not your place. Staffin clenched her teeth tightly and moved away.
“… What happened to you and Stephen?”
“It’s my job, don’t worry about it.”
“That… All right. Sorry. Anyway, may I ask why you came to see me?”
I looked around at Larisha’s question. This place has so many ears in her that she hears her, so she whispers quietly to her.
“Because of that time.”
“Well, if that’s the case…. I confessed….”
“It’s a toy factory thing. Can we move to a quieter place?”
“…I see. Then let’s go to the break room.”
Lerisha said so, and she gestured towards the building built in the corner of the playground. As I nodded and started walking towards it, Lerisha followed me.
At that moment, a sniffing sound came from behind. The sound bothered her, so when she turned around, she saw Lerisha sniffing her own gym clothes. When her eyes met mine, Lerisha hardened in that state. Her face starts to turn red.
“The Princess?”
“That, that… that… Woros Woo, would you go ahead and wait? Lord, I have a little something to prepare.”
“Is it urgent? It’s because time is running out.”
“That… 5 minutes! It’s just five minutes.”
“Hmm. All right. I’ll go to the break room and wait for you.”
“Yes, Neet!”
After the conversation to that point, Lerisha turns her body and starts running at a tremendous speed. Her speed was so fast that dust rose where she passed.
As expected, he is a well-trained warrior, so his movement speed is amazing. While staring blankly at her back, Valandis, who was clinging to her body with stones, approached.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen the princess like that.”
“You were watching.”
“Is the princess also a woman of this time? Ha ha ha Really, no matter how much you are my brother, you have great skills, so I have a lot of respect for you inside.”
“That… brother?”
As I tilted my head in embarrassment at the word brother, Valandis smiled while showing off his proud gold teeth.
“Isn’t it common sense that men who have entrusted their lives to become brothers? The three brothers were formed through Rayplane.”
“… I will fall.”
“hahahahaha, you say the same thing as Rayplane.”
I think he went to Layplane and talked about his brothers and all. If it was Ray Plain’s personality, he must have hated it. It’s all about being brothers and sisters, how many people would you like?
Among the people I know, at least a slope arogas will respond favorably. Anyway, I had an appointment with Princess Lerisha, so I asked for forgiveness from Valandis and left.
I can’t make Larisha wait. I don’t know what kind of misunderstanding will grow like a snowball on her and choke me. It would be better if there were no errors when intertwined with Lelisha.
