108 – Grand Duke Aka – 108
The Empire’s handling of the work was a matter of course.
At the same time as the barrier was released, the imperial troops rushed in, took over all the incapacitated believers, and immediately evacuated the wounded to the imperial medical center.
And as a result… … .
“Priscilla is good at peeling apples. hehehe~ It’s too sweet~”
“Because I learned a lot from a young age. Now, ah, ah~”
“Ah~ Umm~ It’s too hot~”
As a group, they ended up in a hospital room.
“Paimon, Marvas. You guys weren’t hurt too much, so why did you have to come all the way here?”
Across from Marvas, who is lying on the bed and enjoying reading, ‘This way too! We need an apology here too! The princess!’
“What are you talking about? Even though he seemed to have won leisurely, he was a body without a contract. Even now, it’s sore everywhere… … .”
“Um… … . I agree with the words of inspiration. Using power in the human world without a contractor certainly feels like forcibly rolling your body… … . Yum!”
Even if you say it that way, I can’t say anything even if I hate it.
… … i have to be patient
“Don’t say too much, honey. Didn’t Paimon and Marvas work hard too? I could have won thanks to that. Oh, would you like an apple?”
Raphael, who was peeling apples along with Priscilla on the bed to my left, handed me a lumpy piece of apple with a fork.
“ah. thanks.”
When Raphael naturally accepts the fork, Raphael suddenly looks sullen.
“Ah~ I thought you would… … . i just took it… … .”
Asking for an apology, both sides are making a fuss in pairs.
Should I speak up or
“So, the emperor said he would open the Imperial High School?”
I swallowed the apple I was chewing and immediately asked Priscilla, and she stopped slicing the apple and looked back at me.
“yes that’s right. I learned that the Imperial High School is not open unless there is something to reward the heroes who have really helped the empire, but this is the first time I’ve seen the Imperial High School open.”
The Imperial High School of the Empire was a place that could be called the place where the best treasures on the continent were gathered.
Even in the game, depending on the story, it can only be opened once, so I said everything.
“I can’t get a sense of the imperial elk of the empire. What kind of treasures are there… … .”
The instructor, who was eating an apple side by side with Rosé, muttered with his ears perked up.
“Iknow, right. If you go to a place like that, you might start thinking about what to choose… … .”
Saying that, Rosé begins to think happily.
“No need to worry. I’ve already thought of what you need.”
“yes? Have you already thought about it?”
“yes? How do you know what is in the Imperial High School?”
The two girls who were chewing apples looked at me with their eyes wide open.
Ah, shouldn’t I have said that I knew the things of the Imperial High School?
First of all, I decided to gloss over it.
“Because it’s Gregory. I just know.”
“… … I don’t understand something, but since it’s Gregory-sama, it seems like it’s natural.”
“Because Gregory-sama is the strongest!”
At first, it seemed like something went wrong.
Really, I got a good idea of the concept.
“so! What should I choose?”
This time, Rosé looks at me while wagging her ears up and down.
They seemed to think that I had prepared something really great.
“Nothing. If you enter the Imperial High School———”
* * *
“uh… … . Is this really right?”
Inside the imperial high school.
When others are having a happy time choosing what they think they need.
Unlike the others, there was a person looking at the item he had to choose with a particularly tearful face.
Her name is Rose von Euglia.
Rosé looked at the object on her palm and her hands were shaking.
“Yeah, with that, I’ll be able to reach 4 stars as well as 4 circles.”
“uh… … but… … This… … .”
A small and cute black object placed on Rosé’s hand.
“This is a bug!!!”
Yes. It was just a worm.
“It is not an ordinary bug. It is cordyceps that grew from a divine tree. It must be more like a mushroom to be exact.”
The correct name is [Blessed Cordyceps].
It is an elixir that has grass, earth, and insect properties, and it was also an elixir that boasted an SR rating in the game.
“However! It’s a bug! It’s a bug!”
Rosé shouted as she looked at me almost on the verge of tears.
That kind of look was rather cute, and I smiled.
“Is there anything else to choose from? All day long, he smoked cigarettes, and even used a sword called [Indomitable], which was used by a warrior in the past. I just thought it was the one that suits you the most.”
Indeed it was.
Of course, there should have been a lot of good stuff piled up, but no matter how much I thought about it, there was nothing that could beat that [Blessed Cordyceps] in the current situation.
Truly an elixir that seems to exist for Rosé and me.
Can I miss this opportunity?
“And what about Gregory? What will Gregory choose?”
He seems to think that since he picked the bug, I’ll pick the one that’s not so good.
I showed the object I was holding in my hand without hiding anything.
“This is it.”
[Abyssal Blackberry]
This was also an SR grade elixir.
“Wow! It’s an ordinary elixir that looks delicious! Why is it that only I eat bugs like mushrooms like this and Gregory-sama eats something like delicious strawberries?!”
“It’s not a bug like a mushroom, but a mushroom that was a bug.”
“It doesn’t matter! It’s unfair!”
It’s an elixir that can buy a tolerable family with money, but being discriminated against for looking like a bug.
If I heard an insect that became cordyceps, I would have cried out loud.
“… … You’ll end up eating this too, so don’t feel too unfair. I will use this later when I go up to 5 stars.”
“yes? Five stars?!”
Rosé’s eyes change at the word 5 stars.
“Yes, starting from 5 stars, unlike 4 stars, it is difficult just to realize. You should prepare this elixir in advance.”
“Yeah, that’s right… … ! That, too, was something I would eat after all.”
“Yeah, so don’t feel too unfair.”
What we needed now was a performance increase, not a tempo, so we couldn’t help it.
Above all… … .
“Shouldn’t we soon sign a formal contract with Marvas? If you reach the 4th circle, you will have enough slots to contract with Marvas.”
“ah! It was. really! It’s just a temporary contract, but I was mistaken for the real one… … . lol.”
If Marvas heard it, he would have been disappointed.

Glancing at the place where Marvas had stepped, he seemed to be still busy looking at the sword.
“Then go out soon. It seems that most of the other guys have chosen too.”
“yes… … !”
After leaving the Imperial High School, I saw the other guys already staring at the items they had chosen.
Apparently, Instructor Sellua is a sword. Paimon and Priscilla are accessories. Raphael and Amel seemed to have chosen the elixir like us.
“Looks like everyone came out except for Marvas.”
“I guess so. his inspiration. I have a lot of dirty swords, so what kind of sword am I going to see again… … .”
The one who answered my question was Paimon, who was stroking the necklace hanging around his neck.
“Considering that, aren’t the accessories you have quite a bit?”
“under! This means that it is different from ordinary jewelry! Well, how many things are not like that in me… … . Gregory you… … Whoa, you came out with some pretty good stuff.”
Paimon, looking at the elixir we each are holding, puts on an interesting expression.
“[Blessed Cordyceps] and [Abyssal Blackberries]. Both will suit you and Rosé. I think it’s a good choice.”
“yes? Priscilla… … . Is it the [Saint’s Ring]? You picked a good one.”
“Ah yes! Raphael recommended it.”
[Saint’s Ring]
This is also an SR grade item that amplifies divine power by 150% and has the ability to store divine power inside.
I thought that it was suitable for Priscilla because it has the ability to heal or strengthen the body just by putting in a lot of divine power and wearing it.
“Instructor, is it a sword?”
Rose asked as she looked at the instructor stroking the sword body with a look of love.
“Ah, they say it’s a sword made from the teeth of an ancient sandworm. The attack works on the spiritual body, and since the material is a material, it is treated similarly to a sword made from dragon teeth.”
Whoop whoop. The instructor explained with a smile.
Certainly, if it was made with sandworm teeth, it would be able to cut through most of the armor like tofu.
In the game, most of the weapons used by ‘Sandworm’ were SR grade, so I thought that would be SR grade too.
“Next is Marvas… … . Oh, come out.”
Finally, Marvas walks out of the Imperial High School.
What was in his hand was, of course, a sword.
“… … Inspiration. Are you kidding me?”
“Marvas… … . You picked something interesting.”
“hmm? What do you mean by this?”
What Marvas held in his hand was a pure white sword that continued to emit soft white light.
“No, that… … Isn’t it a holy sword?”
Yes.
The sword in Marvas’ hand, which was trembling with a lot of blood vessels.
It was the sword we commonly call the ‘Holy Sword’.
