#6
next day.
After attending a liberal arts lecture in the morning, I was bombarded with questions from Alfres and Lenny, whom I had not seen in a long time, and I had a short conversation with Youthpil Deria, who was sleeping with her forehead on her desk in the distance.
“I’m glad I preserved that handsome face. There was a major accident, so I wondered what would happen if half of my face was crushed.”
After class was over, I got up stumbling, looking at me and Rubia next to me with gloomy eyes, and then smiled and said something like that.
“But tell me. Is the bottom ok? The face is important too, but to you, it’s not going to be more important. 👀”
It was still a gritty fight, and it was still an arrogant voice. There was still the faint smell of disinfectant hiding under the eyes that were tired of extreme fatigue and fatigue, and the stench of perfume.
He shrugged his shoulders once, as if he was conscious of the gaze of the people around him, and asked him not to talk to him any more.
“Are you going today?”
Youthpil smiled with a smirk as if asking what he was asking.
“Yeah, kid. This dude is so busy. … Why do you want to play a game with me like back then? But the woman next to you keeps staring at me. Isn’t that your girlfriend? You said you didn’t have a girlfriend last time. … What, are you okay? I’ve been here before, so do you know the address? Come by 6pm on weekends. At that time, it’s a bit off schedule, so I can deal with you one by one… … .”
“He is so naive that he believes in jokes like that. don’t joke around before you get mad. And I told you not to speak like that.”
“What, are you really my girlfriend? Seriously, that’s exactly what it looks like.”
“Nope.”
“Then he was dating alone. If you look at me with your staring eyes and just look at my face, I get a quote without even looking at it.”
“Okay, go. I was wrong. You won.”
“… Yeah, I said don’t talk to me, but it’s your fault for talking to me. It’s unfortunate that I got into an accident, so I only do this. Next time, there will be no joke. If you understand, get out now.”
It was the Youth Feel who was turned off. I don’t know what that implied it would be, but Rubia carefully spit out a word after looking at the back of Youthpil, who had disappeared out of the classroom with a giggle.
“… … What does it mean to say that it is a one-shot?”
“Nope. It’s nothing, so just ignore it. Don’t even try to understand. Most of what he says is useless or bad quality jokes. No need to listen.”
“Uh huh… … .”
Innocent Rubia didn’t even seem to understand what Youthpil meant by such a joke… … .
After finishing all the swordsmanship lectures in the afternoon and the extrasensory special lecture that the new professor took charge of—without the glass—we ate dinner with the same members as yesterday and visited the gym in Building 3.
“Hey, Ezio.”
Next to him was Gabriel.
“uh?”
“What is that?”
Before the full-fledged workout, Gabriel questioned, pointing to something I had placed next to the machine.
“Ah, this. Well… … .”
rumble-
I raised the barbell for a moment and then lowered it, blurring the end of my speech.
At the end of Gabriel’s and mine’s gaze, there was a statue that gleamed in brilliant gold.
I don’t know if it’s plated or pure gold. At first, I thought that the possibility of the former was high. Because, this statue was not made of simple gold. This meant that other minerals would also be mixed.
A golden statue that sparkles in the light. The appearance itself is not very special. Sculpted the gushing valley waterfall. A lively golden waterfall stood still, and around it, the rugged rocky cliffs and even the trees above it were meticulously chiseled into very detailed shapes.
Not only the twigs, but also the leaves were carefully taken care of, so I thought that no matter who the engraver was, he would be a great talent.
“It looks terribly expensive.”
What Gabriel said was not wrong.
Even if you bring it and sell it as it is, you will be able to bid lightly for at least 30 million lats. It is true even if we only consider its value as a wonderful statue. How much more, if it was made only of pure gold, it would be possible to receive more than 100 million lats unconditionally… … .
If it were made of a more expensive mineral than pure gold… … No, such an assumption is not really necessary. This is because it was not like a product with a normal market price and value.
“It must be expensive. It’s an artifact.”
“Artifact… … What?”
Gabriel’s chin, who had nodded in accordance with my words, stopped for a moment. He looked like he didn’t know what he was saying.
“An artifact of divine blessings. It works just by putting it on, or something. … I don’t know either. It’s the first time I try today.”
When installed, a blessing is granted to a space within a certain radius.
Subjects who receive such a blessing receive various blessings, such as recovering from fatigue, recovering magic power, and increasing the training effect.
Therefore, it is said that it is said that it is said that it is possible to use magic for a longer time than usual without getting tired easily, and thereby significantly increase the training time, as well as giving an effect increase correction in all training using the body.
“… If my father knew, it would be something I could steal by killing you.”
It was Gabriel’s reaction to my brief explanation.
“Somehow, strangely, I thought I could beat you today. It wasn’t just me, but you were also strengthened. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?”
“That’s good, dude. They say you can lift a barbell ten times and lift it five times.”
Obviously the effect is excellent. The feeling is transmitted directly through the body. The air you breathe seems to have gotten even fresher, and more than anything else, it seems that the circulation of magical power in the body rotates twice as fast as usual. I still don’t know how to recover from fatigue, but I think I can test the efficacy from now on.
“So, where else did this come from?”
“I got it.”
“In addition? What year is it this time? Or is it the same year as last time? How the hell do you keep sending tribute like this because I love you?”
“It’s not like that, I told you last time. It’s something the headquarters gave you. Same goes for this. bracelet and this. I got two guns.”
Gabriel tilts his head and strokes his chin.
“… … Huh, should I do a suicide show too? Are you saying that if you die and come back to life, you give out artifacts? I’m seriously worried. write.”
I glared at Gabriel.
“Don’t say that, even as a joke. Don’t you think it’s easy to die and come back to life? The life of a dead person cannot be brought back to life by any artifact.”
Perhaps he remembered an incident that occurred not long ago, Gabriel scratched the nape of his neck with embarrassment.
“Oh, what. Indeed it is sorry. … But then, I wonder how great it will be this time. Are you going to give me some ancient artifacts? I am also a victim, so what can I give you?”
“Well, we’ll figure it out when we get it sorted out later. … Let’s get started quickly. I’m dying to test the effect.”
I was the one who came up with the word relic for a moment when I heard the word ancient relic, but I immediately shaved my head and lay down on the bench, holding the barbell’s rod tightly.
The muscles are also wriggling with joy as if they were expecting them inwardly. it is the best condition The whole body is energized. A bright smile is naturally formed.

Did I send these artifacts knowing that I am crazy about training and exercise? If so, that’s pretty good. I will forget about the poor safety management for now… … .
“Uh-huh.”
“Hey ah ah ah.”
The physical training room was quickly filled with the spirit of the two of them.
… That day, we tripled the amount of training.
#7
… … late night.
On the dining table, where there was a quiet, chilly silence, the finest court cuisine was being refilled in the form of a course, generously prepared enough to bend the upper legs.

Drooling-
moon crack-
In a cold sweat, the court cook slowly moves the silver tray plate onto the wide rectangular table.
“… … .”
He seems to be very nervous for some reason.
He succeeds in arranging the food without making a mistake with a rigid posture, and after collecting the empty plates, he bows his head and waist in manners. be respectful

Drooling-
Immediately after, he swallows his saliva and pulls out the carrier very quietly. Until then, no human voice had been heard. The sound of wheels rolling, the sound of moving dishes, the sound of shallow breathing, etc. There were three people sitting around the table, and none of them opened their mouths.
It was about ten minutes before we ate in the silence.
“I ate well.”
Finally someone spoke up.
As soon as she finished speaking, she took her hips off the chair and stood up. It was a very large, heavy, and high chair, so I had to jump down a bit.
The person sitting at the top has not yet risen. This is clearly against the rules.
But no one around could stop it. Even the king sitting at the top of the table.
“Aren’t you going to eat dessert?”
Said the queen, who sat to the left of the king.
“The pudding you ate deliciously in the past… … .”
“I have no idea.”
At first glance, he suggested that with a pathetic look, but a sword-like refusal came back as an answer.
“good night. Mother, Father.”
from mom and dad.
as mother and father.
It was a pretty cool name. It was also proof that their hearts were far apart. The queen’s eyebrows curled as if dead, and the king saw it and said sternly, wiping away the traces of his beard.
“Daughter. We’re not done talking yet. Sit down.”
Although he was old, the fire within him did not extinguish. There was a heavy feeling of weight that seemed to be materialized in a single word. Because of that, the air in the intestine seemed to sink even further. A brief silence filled the area again.
To the words of the king with a golden beard and hair, the princess with golden hair answered.
“I have nothing more to say.”
“glass.”
When their names are called, Yuri glances back at them.
A black dress with silk lace fluttered from the hem, and splendid ornaments worthy of a noble status were hung on the earlobes or the nape of the neck, gleaming in clear silver.
However, the dazzling blonde hair flowing down like a waterfall didn’t look like it was tied down as usual. Shiny hair was carefully combed to give off a smoother luster. It is like silk woven by melting pure gold.
Although the appearance of a princess adorned with elegance was closer to a pretty girl than a mature woman, no one would have any objection in that she was dazzlingly beautiful. Even after a little while, her youth will surely bloom with splendor… … .
“I already told you.”
Yuri did not avoid the king’s eyes. They look like they are holding on to them until they come as if they were going to do it. Together with the maid who follows her, the princess and princess of a country, she opens the door with the royal pattern engraved on it.
“… I’ll stay here until my brother’s funeral is over.”
The moment I took a step forward with my head snapped and turned.
“Why do you want to go back like that?”
The king’s voice caught his foot and dragged him.
Yuri paused for a moment. But his gaze was directed outward. don’t look back Tak— The king continued with one more word as he put down the tableware.
“After all, is it because of that friend?”
… … that friend?
“It’s no use pretending not to.”
When the king was unable to grasp what the king was saying, Yuri wrinkled her eyebrows for a moment at the words of the king.
“I heard that you, who used to avoid foreign men so much, got along unusually with that friend. It’s not that I can’t figure out why.”
Only then did Yuri ask the question with a hint of realization.
“… I mean, who did you tell me to watch?”
The king shakes his head.
“It is not. If my precious daughter is suffering from a distant land, the heart of this father and mother will never be at ease, so I just asked them for a brief news to see if they would suffer any inconvenience.”
“… … haha. really.”
Yuri let out an exasperated laugh.
I couldn’t dare bring out the words that were not enough even with the letters I sent every week. It’s because he knew very well that even the seeds wouldn’t be eaten no matter what he said.
“I asked if it was because of that friend.”
There was nothing more to say. To be honest, my mouth was open and no words came out. I understand the parents’ concerns, but only a little over a month has passed. Still, if this kind of surveillance had already been attached, I didn’t want to imagine how much more interference it would cause in the future.
but don’t be angry
Press and hold.
“… … what friend.”
I barely squeezed my voice out.
The king answers with a somewhat gloomy face.
“The friend who resembles your brother. I’ve only seen it once at the entrance ceremony, but I still remember it. I almost forgot about my body and almost got up from my seat.”
It seems that Chetong had already lost the porridge and gave it to him. Recalling the image of the king and queen who greeted each other enthusiastically while chanting Yuri’s name, Yuri pressed her hand on her forehead, which was starting to throb.
“Nope.”
at all events.
Yuri briefly denied.
“Absolutely not.”
Again, I say strongly.
“… … .”
After a while.
The king raises his eyes loosely.
“I would have said that pretending not to be useless-”
“That’s not it.”
Finally, Yuri denies.
Then sighing.
“I never pretended not to.”
OK.
“… … What?”
The king’s eyebrows twitch. What is my daughter talking about now?
Yuri looked straight into the king’s eyes. The king felt a strange feeling in my daughter’s eyes. It was an unfamiliar look. It’s like seeing it for the first time. No, I’m sure. I’ve never seen it with my daughter before.
Those mature eyes.
“It’s not just because of him.”
Even the queen is looking at the glass with her mouth slightly open.
“I have friends waiting for me. He and his other friends. They are probably all waiting for me.”
Yuri calmly finished her speech.
“Then you have to go back. to school.”
“… … .”
The king stared at her silently.
“… Let’s talk again tomorrow.”
Finally, I closed my eyes quietly.
Yuri leaves the place.
“… I feel like she’s not my daughter.”
As the king murmured, the queen nodded her head.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen someone so honest.”
It’s not enough to admit that you’re hanging out with an outsider, not even getting angry. He seemed to be annoyed, but that was all. As usual, he did not reveal any signs of escalating into an argument… … .
“… What do you think?”
“It’s a little sad that he seems to be really trying to get out of our arms.”
It wasn’t a lie, but sadness wasn’t everything. The king felt the same strange feeling as the queen.
When people go through great things, they grow. Or vice versa. In the meantime, the growth of Yuri was blocked. Because it was too heavy to bear. If so, is it now that you can afford it?
Maybe it is.
In the meantime, the existence of my brother, who had been tying up the glass like shackles, has finally left… … .
But overcoming that sense of loss is another matter. There are many grateful beings who made it possible for me to endure that void, in the heart of the distant empire.
The king thought of the familiar face of someone who was expected to play the biggest role among them.
Then, I soon made a decision.
“… … .”
He was also told that he had contributed greatly to the recovery of his son’s body. There was no reason not to meet in person. The king’s determination became even more firm.
widely. widely. tak-
The king, who had been knocking on the tablecloth with his eyes closed for a long time, finally opened his eyelids and made a quiet voice.
“… not formally invited. Those friends too.”
