115 – Grand Duke Aka – 115
And, as soon as I arrived at the academy, the words I heard from Rosé seemed to foretell that the daily life would be difficult in the future.
“Gregory! Rank Match! Let’s have a rank match!!!”
ah… … ,
let’s rest
rank match.
One of the annual events of the academy, an event that can be said to be the only way to raise the ranking within the academy besides the midterm and final exams.
“By the way, you said you were playing a ranking match right now? Vice-Chancellor?”
“that’s right! Has the movement of catastrophe been active recently? He said that it was done, and he said he would do something like this to improve the students’ skills… … Well, in the end, it was a story about a ranking match! Oh, this is delicious!”
Rosé stops talking and concentrates on eating again.
I’m sure you’ve covered all the important things.
If so, it was judged reasonable to think about what would happen next.
“… … Rosé. How high are we now?”
“yes? us? Umm… … Is it 23rd in first grade? oh! This is delicious too!”
23rd place.
Certainly, it could be said that it was a tremendous improvement that Rose, who had been in last place, was ranked 23rd.
Originally, there would be no problem with a higher rank, but it must have stopped at this level because of the confusion caused by the rapid change in rank.
“Rosé.”
“yes?”
Rosé, who was chewing food, looked up at me.
“Is there a ranking you want to aim for?”
“hmm… … Wouldn’t it be nice to be number one?”
“Currently, the number one is Priscilla?”
“The world of competition is a harsh law… … !”
Rose muttered solemnly as she gripped the knife in her hand.
“Yes, if that’s the case, it’s a ranking match. Let’s aim for number one.”
“Really?! I could?!”
“Was there anything that I said I was doing that didn’t work?”
After hearing my words, Rosé puts her index finger to her lips, as if recalling the old conversations.
“hmm… … . Didn’t you?”
“Yes, I am a do-it-yourself person, no, I am the devil. so… … I will become a devil instructor for you who want to be number one.”
“uh… … . wait a minute? After all, should I try?”
“Then, did you try to become strong by eating only rice like this? In any country, that is impossible.”
Rosé’s body trembled as if she had been stabbed.
“that… … There is a saying that physical strength is national strength!”
“There is a saying that obesity is the cause of all diseases.”
“Hey! Have you been refuted… … !”
No, you become stronger after all.
why do you disassemble
“So, how do you say the ranking battle is going?”
“I said that points will be awarded for every sparring in the future. They said that the scope for designating opponents for sparring will also increase.”
Are points scored for each sparring?
wait for a sec.
“Wasn’t our next opponent Tequila and Demonic?”
“Oh, is that so?”
… … Originally, I was going to show Demonic the sword of Rosé while watching.
I couldn’t help it more than this.
I have no choice but to deal with you sincerely.
* * *
For the 5th period, I decided to take classes with Rosé.
Maybe it’s because it’s been a long time since I’ve taken a magic class, but the instructor looked at me with grim eyes.
Well, as a result, they scolded me with a lot of black swamps because they wanted to see my magic.
Afterwards, he accepted the declaration of defeat from the magic instructor who cried and cried and said that he did not have to come to class and quit.
“Gregory. You did too much.”
“The instructor provocations first, but we can’t just stay still.”
“But what about Gregory-sama’s magic… … . Because it’s scary. Didn’t the other students run away as soon as they saw the Black Swamp?”
Certainly, it was worth seeing the students evacuating to the corner of the classroom at the same time as the black swamp was activated.
Thanks to that, I was able to devour the feeling of fear for the first time in a long time.
“This is our last class.”
“I still have make-up classes left… … .”
After finishing the 5th period, which was stained with tears, fear and screaming, we were on our way to the smoking area to smoke before entering the next class, Dalian.
“This smell… … !”
“I guess it’s the smell of tequila again.”
“That’s correct! Tequila Yaaang~!!!”
Rosé spreads her arms and rushes into the smoking room.
After all, we have to fight for a while, but how can we love each other like that?
When I entered the smoking booth, I saw Rosé hugging the tequila and rubbing her face.
“Tequila ah~”
“Ro, Rosé. Cigarette ashes fall on your head.”
“It’s good if it’s tequila’s cigarette ash.”
Rosé is not a magnet, but sticks to the tequila and doesn’t think it will fall off.
“Isn’t tequila in trouble?”
“Oh, tequila… … ! Am I in trouble?”
“yes. It is difficult.”
“Bo, they usually say it’s okay there… … !”
Rosé dripping from tequila with a shocked face.
Nevertheless, Tequila smiled and continued.
“Because I can’t lie to my favorite rosé.”
“As expected, Miss Tequila liked me!”
And then I hugged the tequila again.
It doesn’t fall after all… … .
“By the way, can’t you see Demonic?”
“Ah, I have dismantled the summons for the upcoming sparring. After all, if you keep summoning someone like Demonic-sama, your mana will be depleted little by little.”
“yes? If you summon a summoned beast, your magic power will continue to decrease, right?”
Rosé tilts her head after hearing Tequila’s words.
Somehow, it seemed like they left me unsummoned like Pikachu… … . Didn’t you know
Still, there was something I could guess, so I decided to explain it to Rosé.
“You replenish your mana through regular smoking. You wouldn’t even feel the loss of mana.”
Also, since I am supplementing my own mana by eating the emotions around me, I did not put too much pressure on Rosé, though.
“Oh oh… … . New knowledge has increased.”
“… … you didn’t know that Rose is also great. No, I wonder if you have a lot of magic power.”
“lol… … . Ever since I was little, I grew up eating a lot of precious things.”
It’s only natural since she’s the eldest daughter of a family that farms elixirs.
So, after smoking while chatting, we moved to the training ground where the training classes were to be held side by side.
roaring crowds.
You can see blue ears moving prickly through the gaps among the numerous students.
“That ear… … .”
“Yes, I think you are the instructor, right?”
As I got closer, I saw that the students had gathered in a rush and were pouring out various questions to the instructor, Selua Negal, as if what had happened in the empire had spread to this place.
“Was it really an attack by the Holy Church?!”
“Are the princes really handsome?!”
“I heard you were the hero who saved the empire?!”
“Ji, calm down! Isn’t it time for class soon! That’s right! Ask Gregory Jones and Rosé over there. They were both together!”
Wow, you’re leaving this up to us here?
“transform.”
At the same time as I shouted for transformation, I felt the eyes focused in this direction disperse in an instant.
“I wanted attention too! huh… … .”
As the attention focused on him disappeared in an instant, he could see Rosé’s ears drooping down.
“Looks like it must have been getting this kind of attention all morning. Why don’t you put up with it now?”
“If Gregory-sama says so, I can’t help it. I’ve only been able to talk about the hero Rosé’s Rosé Punch 8 times yet.”
You said you talked about what happened in the Empire 8 times in that short period of time?
emperor guy. They praised us as heroes like that, and now it seems like we’re just spreading stories.
The attack must have been completely blocked without a single casualty.
They began to make us heroes by adapting the story according to their taste.
These are the heroes of the empire.
So don’t touch the other guys. Called.
In other words, they were pre-ordering us to join the Empire.
Well, at any rate, we won’t be entering the Empire.
“It seems that the situation has been sorted out, so I will start sparring soon. Since this is the first sparring class that this instructor takes after returning from the empire, I hope you show a good performance. I will definitely reflect it on the ranking match score.”
When the word rank war comes out, the other students look nervous.
Since it means that every single battle that takes place from now on will be scored, I thought that such a reaction would be worthy.
“lol…….”
The guy next to me seems to have no idea.
The instructor called the names of the students in turn and assigned numbers to the arena. Listening to Tequila’s story, it seems that most of the students in the lower ranks are challenged by opponents.
Tequila also called us by name beforehand, so we were able to enter the same arena.
“By the way… Instructor. Why are you at our training ground again?”
The other places are managed by the staff of the academy or by the students of the leadership team, but for some reason, Instructor Sellua was standing at the judgment seat of our arena and looking at us as if it were natural.
“Yeah, because you think it’s the most fun?”
… … I can’t resist
That’s right, it’s a battle between Tequila, who brought a new summon this time, and the two of us, who can be called up-and-coming rookies.
It’s probably the most worth seeing among the guys who are sparring right now.
The fact that Instructor Sellua saw me and Rosé’s skills in the Empire also played a part, though.
“Then both teams move to their respective positions.”
As if not accepting any more questions, the instructor looked at us and declared that.
Rosé and I were standing in our team’s position, and Tequila was standing alone looking at us on the other side.
“Then, both teams ready.”
Tequila doesn’t even budge even though the beginning of the couple is getting closer.
Why don’t you summon summons?
“start.”
Simultaneously with the instructor’s call.
The ground was stained black.
“under.”
He didn’t stay still, he was preparing to take out the summoned beasts.
“That, Gregory-sama? Are there too many of you?!”
Rosé panics while looking at the scene unfolding before her eyes.
A pitch-black playground. From there, an uncountable army of undead climbed up.
“I will go with all my heart. Rosé. Mr. Gregory.”
This is a bit dangerous.
