119 – Grand Duke Aka – 119
“Certainly, everyone seems to have come.”
We gathered in a separate classroom for make-up classes. After a while, the vice-chancellor, Orga Levinfort, who entered the classroom with a staff member who appeared to be a secretary, stood in front of the lecture table very casually.
She scans the classmates with cold, nonchalant eyes.
Did he make eye contact with her? Rose, who was twitching her fingers next to me, flinched and trembled.
“Wow, I’m sure the vice president has a different aura… … .”
Rosé whispered to me with a voice that would not be heard in a whisper.
At the same time as Rosé’s words and ending, Levinport looks in our direction.
“Rosé von Euglia. From the moment I entered, supplementary classes began. Please refrain from small talk.”
“I’m sorry!”
The atmosphere of the supplementary class shrinks from Levinport’s coercive appearance from the start. At least, the only one who showed a relaxed appearance there was Raphael sitting next to Priscilla.
‘Hello babe?’
Raphael sent a message, looking at me and moving his mouth silently.
I sighed and looked at the lecture table with Levinport again.
What kind of supplementary class did he personally go to?
Levinfort finally spoke.
“You are the first students to discover that Amon is preparing to descend here with calamity. I even tried to stop them from doing it. So, no other explanation. Now, Middle-earth is in unprecedented peril.”
so that. And Levinport got lucky.
“I realized that I need your strength. Roger von Euglia. Priscilla Ann Heinbern, Amell Balmenga. And their summons.”
It seemed that Instructor Selua Negal had already reported everything that had happened in the Empire.
Well, it must have been natural for the academy’s instructor, Selua Negal.
“Your strength is superior to that of the other students. In fact, I know that all of you are at the top of each grade level. Therefore, Vice President Vaughn is planning to run special classes, including supplementary classes, for you.”
Rosé’s face turns pale at the sudden declaration of a special class. Looking to the side, Priscilla and Amel weren’t particularly welcoming to the special class either.
“Um, are we the only ones taking that special class?!”
Rose raises her hand and asks a question. At this, Levinport shook his head.
“No, we plan to organize it for the top students in each grade. In addition to that, we plan to provide additional education for other students according to their grades.”
“So-called step-by-step lessons.”
Did you hear my murmur? Levinport nodded.
“Step-by-step lessons? Well, maybe you can see it that way. Therefore, you can be regarded as blessed students. It was because I was taught by me, not by other instructors. You better be proud.”
There was no shame in Levinfort’s expression when he said that.
A look that seems so natural.
“Today, I will end here with the concept of OT. From tomorrow, we will have a proper class, so prepare your mind and come. more.”
After that, we could only stare blankly at Levinport, who had left the classroom.
After such a short and intense supplementary class, Rosé stopped at the smoking room on her way to the dormitory, took a pipe from her mouth, exhaled smoke, and asked me.
“… … Mr. Gregory, what is the identity of the Vice-Chancellor?”
Rosé asked with a trembling voice, her expression was filled with fear.
“Telling me to be proud of being educated by myself, or that attitude that is so confident. How great of a person are you to roll us this far!”
Apparently, his mind became unstable when he heard that the class was getting more intense.
Still, I cautiously opened my mouth to comfort her.
“A dragon deserves that level of confidence.”
“No, I’m not a dragon of any kind———Nya? What did you say?”
What, did you really not know?
“Dragon. Dragon. A legendary summoner contracted by the summoner who founded Sumonia. That is Orga Levinport, the vice-chancellor of Summoner Academy and the dragon.”
“… … no, really? Is the Vice-Chancellor really that legendary dragon?!”
“Yes, it is the dragon who founded Sumonia and founded the Summoners Academy.”
“… … The Vice-Chancellor would have told me not to lie if someone other than Gregory said that he was a dragon.”
“What can I do if it’s true?”
In fact, it was almost certain that it was a setting from the original game [Summoner Academia].
Is that all? Just looking at Paimon, who fled to the Pandemonium at the same time as the Vice-Chancellor’s return, it’s probably clear.
“OMG… … . To think that such a great person was the vice-president of our academy… … ! Something I still can’t believe.”
That said, he smokes a cigarette made from a World Tree, but he doesn’t believe in a single dragon.
something weird?
“Aren’t you burning the leaves of the world tree with a cigarette made from it? If you ask someone else, won’t they say you’re more amazing?”
“Uh… … . is that so?”
Apparently, it seemed that Rose had no idea what level of existence the World Tree was in this world.
It is safe to say that the world tree that Rosé’s family and the elves worship is indeed a god that protects the elves.
In terms of rank, it must be higher than a dragon… … . To Rosé, it was just a tree in the neighborhood.
No, rather than that, are the connections around you the problem?
With the emperor of the empire, the grand devils of the duke class, the princess of the empire and the archangel by his side… … .
No, then you shouldn’t be surprised anymore.
anyway.
“The Vice-Chancellor is so talented that he raised an ordinary summoner into a hero. Her teachings will surely be of great help to you.”
Slowly, I put my hand on my hair, which was already starting to drain. Rosé smiled single-singly, probably accustomed to being stroked on the head now.
“You will be strong soon. So even if it’s a little difficult, if you do your best, you won’t have any regrets. Got it?”
“… … yes!”
Fortunately, did my words comfort me? Rosé’s expression, which was making a lot of porridge while exhaling cigarette smoke, seemed to have improved at least.
hmm… … . I went through a lot of hardships while visiting the empire. Would it be better to do mental care?
“Rosé.”
“yes?”
“You are doing well. Don’t worry too much.”
It was Rose who entered the top rank within a few months from the bottom of the freshman year.
I can give you this level of praise.
“… … yes!”
Um, would you like to go somewhere to play this weekend?
* * *
When I was taking a break in the dormitory with Rosé, I heard the doorbell outside.
“Has anyone come? Who are you?”
Rose, who was studying in her room, leaves the room and heads for the front door.
She was wearing dolphin pants and a white tee that showed off her legs. And the horn-rimmed glasses I don’t know where they came from and the hair tied back.
It was the appearance of a girl studying.
“who… … uh? Miss Tequila? And, is it Demonic?”
Dalgrak– Dalgrak–
“Excuse me for the late evening. I came here to talk to you for a while… … Do you have a good time?”
“yes? Oh, it’s okay! Come on in!”
“Then excuse me.”
Tequila, bowing her head, entered the room and soon met eyes with me, who was lying on the sofa in the living room.
Tequila bowed her head and said hello to me. I also get up from the sofa and accept the greeting.
“What are you doing at this hour? Tequila.”
I was just lying down to rest after helping Rosé with her studies, but I didn’t expect a guest to come.
“Excuse me. Gregory. It’s nothing else, I’ve come here because I want to ask Gregory-sama and Rosé… … . I wonder if the time will be all right.”
“… … ask?”
A favor, is it about something that happened during the day?
“Sit down first.”
“thank you.”
Dalgrak– Dalgrak–
Tequila and Demonic sitting right across from me. After fetching refreshments in the kitchen, Rosé puts them down on the table and sits next to me naturally.
“Is something difficult going on? what can i do to help? Do you want a cigarette?! We even have a smoking room in our room!”
“yes? uh… … Wait, you mean the smoking room? Eh?”
“A friend’s request! It’s like trouble counseling, right?! First time! Please tell me about any concerns! This rosé will solve it! romantic relationship? school life? Friendship?!”
Rosé stands up, spurring to the table, no doubt how motivated she is. Her blue eyes seemed to burn.
“Ah, I’m not worried about that, but… … .”
“Hing.”
but died soon
“I was looking for you… … It’s because Demonic said he had something to ask of Rose.”
“Demonic… … Are you?”
Demonic nodding slowly.
Tequila seems to be a difficult request. He hesitated to talk for a while, but soon nodded as if he was determined and looked at Rosé.
“I know this is a tough request. Please, could you take me and Demonic-sama to Delinia?”
“Are you Delinia?”
Delinia. A land where elves live. It is a place called a land of mystery to ordinary people, and it was also a city famous for being very difficult to enter without a recommendation from an acquaintance inside Delinia.
“Can’t we go together? If you’re a student at Summoner Academy, I think you’ll be able to get in.”
But what if you are a student at Summoner Academy? Although the procedure was quite difficult, it should have been easy enough.
If you were a student at Summoner Academy, you could have received a letter of recommendation from an elf from one of the school instructors.
“It’s not exactly Delinia where we want to go. The tomb of Lily von Euglia in Delinia. I want to go there.”
“… … If that’s the case, it’s definitely going to be difficult with a recommendation letter from the school.”
Even in Delinia, there were several places where outsiders were strictly prohibited from entering.
Representatively, the farmland and the world tree of the Euglia family, the family of Rosé. And, the tomb of Lily von Euglia, mentioned by Tequila, was right under the World Tree.
“uh… … Great-grandmother’s graveyard?”
And that place seemed to be an unexpected place for Rosé as well.
The tomb of Lily von Euglia. Considering that it was Demonic’s request, I guessed that something from the past was involved.
“I know it’s hard for us outsiders to go. Even the fact that it’s even harder for me, a Necromancer, to go. But——”
“yes! song!”
“——Yes?”
Nevertheless, an affirmative answer came out of Rosé’s mouth.
“To be able to go home with a friend! Mum and Dad will be amazed, as well as Ella!”
“… … Uh, is it going to be that easy?”
“yes? What’s not going to happen? This is Rosé, Rosé! There is nothing impossible in my family!”
joy! joy! Rosé confidently declares while snorting.
I was still thinking about where to go to play this weekend, but I just thought it went well.
“I guess we can go to Delinia this weekend.”
It is the land of the elves.
For some reason, a feeling of anticipation stirred in my heart.
