“Wake up, Rubia. arrived.”
“… … huh?”
Just before arriving at the Epic Class dormitory stop, she shook Rubia’s shoulder, who had been idling with her eyes closed, to wake her up.
Rubia, who had tilted her head with hazy eyes, patted her cheek lightly as if trying to come to her senses with a whimper.
“Ahh. sorry. I fell asleep… ”
I grab my bag and try to get up. I was holding on to the handle that was hanging from the ceiling, but the moment Rubia, who looked more tired and not refreshed, took off her buttocks from her seat.
“… Whoa!”
At the same time, the tram entering the station suddenly slowed down, and Rubia’s body was leaned in the recoil and staggered to the side.
-widely.
There was no such thing as falling over and spilling the contents of the bag.
I, who was looking down at Rubia right in front of me, moved quickly and wrapped my arms around her side.
“Be careful.”
“——!”
A body as light as a feather. The waist was so narrow that the lower part of the ribs could be clearly felt. It smells sweet like a ripe peach.
“… … Go, thank you. Ezio.”
A voice reminded me of something. His earlobes were also red.
When Rubia’s slanted body stood up, she crawled hard, grabbed her bag in her hands, bowed her head, and walked towards the door.
I too followed and stood next to Rubia.
—Cheek… …
The tram door opened, and we got off together.
Stepping on the white tiled floor of the station, I sneakily talk to Rubia.
“Rubia.”
“… … Yes?”
“Do you remember what I said earlier? that you don’t rush Maybe not what I’m talking about, but it’s good to sleep on time.”
After a brief pause, Rubia’s answer came.
“… are you okay. Still, I’m fine.”
This is neither a bluff nor an absurdity. It’s just an instinctive reaction to Rubia’s round personality.
He doesn’t look all right, he looks very tired.
In such a state, if you take on the role of the leader of the group task, bad things will happen in many ways. I don’t even know in detail what the water quality of Rubia’s members is.
… Do you really need to catch me sooner or later?
It was necessary to speak closely with Rubia. Aside from the group assignments, Rubia these days is definitely, no, very different from before. There must be a little bit of my influence there.
Not only rubia, but also mu is a problem.
How about Stella?
Even more so, in order to lead a normal life in Frontier, you have to get to know other male students, such as Hector and Aldrie.
There are so many things that need to be resolved before graduation. I was going to focus on my studies and training, but it doesn’t work. It was a really chaotic school life.
bruises, bruises.
After the conversation was cut off by Rubia’s nonsensical bravado, we walked up to the park inside the dormitory.
Now, I was waiting for the swordsmanship class in the afternoon to eat and eat, but did Rubia have a separate schedule? If not, I think it would be better to just go to the dormitory and rest.
At one point I was thinking about it.
“uh.”
“… oh Ezio… Seed.”
I ran into Stella, who seemed to be observing a flower garden while squatting in the corner of the well-manicured park.
At that time, Rubia, who seemed to be walking in the opposite direction to me, momentarily turned around. As if it was nice to find Stella… … Hey, why are you standing still?
it doesn’t matter I asked first.
“What are you doing here?”
I remembered what happened in the dormitory last time, but I didn’t express it. Stella answered with a shy blush as always, as if conscious of the eyes around her.
“Flower… I was watching you.”
“… Oh, that’s right.”
is not it.
Are you really ashamed of doing this?
Although the former Alfres loved nature.
He was the owner of a militant tendency to twist the stems when he saw pretty flowers along the way, and to destroy the anthills rather than observing the flowers here.
What kind of education did Stella’s adoptive father give his adopted daughter, so that he changed the very foundation of human beings? Or was it just that as she grew up, she finally realized her femininity and became sympathetic?
It’s a bit of a strange feeling, though, because there’s a lot of discrepancy.
how about It’s not that it doesn’t fit. Rather, thinking that Stella, not Alphren, is doing this, it is just like a painting.
However, I asked Stella, who was slowly avoiding my gaze, as if it was embarrassing to be caught looking at flowers.
“stellar. Will you join me in swordsmanship later?”
“yes… ? yes.”
“Did you eat?”
“… … yet?”
“Then who would you like to eat with?”
“uh… … ”
Stella’s squatted silver eyes rolled over and over my shoulder.
Rubia was standing behind me. They stared blankly as we chatted without saying a word.
“Rubia… ? what are you doing there… … ?”
Stella tilted her head and spoke first.
Rubia flinched as if she had come to her senses, but she still didn’t think of approaching us, so Stella asks them one after another.
“If you haven’t eaten yet, come with us… … ”
Rubia snorts.
“I, I think I need to rest a little. Let’s go to the dormitory first, guys. Today is… Eat with yourselves.”
Rubia, who was scratching her cheeks and smiling, hurriedly turned her back. Immediately afterward, they begin to move quickly toward the dormitory in Building 2.
“… … ”
“… … ?”
I was silent, and Stella questioned.
What…
I can’t help it if I take a break.
Because that would be better for condition management.
“By the way, what about Yuri?”
“yes? glass?”
Stella, who got up while brushing her white thighs, briefly asked a question.
By the way, since Rubia had left and there was no one around, Stella was naturally talking nonsense to me.
You’re very strict, boy.
“You guys always ate together.”
Rubia, Stella, Yuri. The three of us ate at the same table whenever the time was right.
“ah… Yuri is still in liberal arts class… … ? I’ll have to wait another hour to get back. … Shall I wait?”
“How did you do it in the first place?”
“Well… I waited while talking to Rubia.”
Huh-.
Is it an hour? It’s too long.
I can’t help it.
Eating alone… … It’s surprisingly comfortable, Yuri. You will soon realize
“No, I am hungry. Let’s just eat together.”
“yes.”
Stella followed me without saying a word. Still, there is loyalty between friends. I thought he would ask Yuri to wait, but it was quite a surprise.
Now, rather than a friend I’ve only met for a week, the words of mine, who I’ve been with for three months in the past, are more influential.
I felt a bit sorry for taking away my friend.
… … Come to think of it.
I don’t really remember having dinner with Gabriel these days.
Sometimes it looks like he’s trying to make friends with the guy who is known as Aldrie. From a distance, it seemed that Gabriel was just talking to herself, and Aldrie was just standing still and listening.
Well, he’s a very friendly guy, so you’ll get to know him well. It would be nice to get to know you like that and introduce yourself to me.
by the way.
Gradually, I have to make friends with the boys in my class… The biggest obstacle was the trio.
Hati Euresian, Jascal von Magnas, and Hector de Alcantra, who is in my group this time.
‘… … It’ll be fine.’
Aside from Hector.
Youth Phil Deria. He’s the biggest problem.
Thinking about the group assignment gave me a headache again.
Still, I wasn’t too worried.
The villains who intentionally interfere with the performance of the task… … Because I was going to clean it up in my own way.
#6
Early evening when the sun begins to hide its head below the horizon, and dusk begins to walk slowly.
‘Isn’t there anything to watch? why… ‘
As I suddenly had a mock match with Abel to check the change in my skills over the past week, I gently lifted my head, who was rubbing my fiery wrists, wrists, and calves.
“I-I-I’m here. Heh heh heh.”

District 3 Ordo Class Station.
As the promised 7 pm with the crew was approaching, Lenny in a reddish-brown uniform was seen running from the back of the station.
Lenny lived here. So, the 3rd District Ordo class was Lenny’s class. You’re probably the last to be on a topic like that. After all, was it the theory that the closer you are, the later you arrive?
“Good job, Lenny. Did you come running?”
“Ah, yes. I think I’ll be late if I walk… … ”
It didn’t matter as I arrived on time anyway.
Nodding my head, I see the crew members each sitting on the bench around me.
Me and I, who had arrived 30 minutes early and had been waiting in advance, were the first to arrive by tram, followed by Alfris von Chebluff. Next was Lenny. So, there were only three people gathered now.
… … Nope. not ruined yet
Hector unfortunately did not have time to rain today. So Rain wrote down the date and time in my notebook, and after a brief meeting here, we will reschedule a meeting with Hector in time.
Whoops.
Alfresse, who was sitting around me, suddenly got up from the bench. Then he comes to me and whispers in my ear.
“Ezio. everyone is looking at you Thanks to you, I get a lot of attention, and it makes me feel good?”
“It would be better to pay attention. I just get tired.”
“Haha- After all, this is a daily routine, isn’t it? The life of a popular person is enviable.”
“What is a popular person? The life of a zoo monkey.”
In a nutshell, it was really useless interest. Alfresse, who was smiling happily at my disgusted expression, returned to her seat.
Suddenly, I check the clock hanging on the wall of the station.
The hour hand points to the 7th place.
The second hand starts ticking at regular intervals and gradually moves to the right, indicating that it has just passed 7 PM.
There were still three people here.
“… … ”
“… … ”
“… … ”
Where did Youth Phil live in the school district? Was it 2nd grade? Then you live in the same school district as me, so why are you so late than me?
It’s too early to say yet. It was just past 7 o’clock. If you missed the tram, there is a possibility that you will be 20 minutes late by making enough time to catch the next tram. So we sat still and waited for the youth pill.
In the meantime, I took out a book titled 「Mana Control I」 that I had kept in my bag and unfolded it. It felt like I had read a book with this kind of content vaguely when I was in middle school, so somehow it felt familiar.
like that.
after a while.
“Oh, I’m not coming… … ”
Lenny muttered quietly.
Maybe it was because they each didn’t eat, so there seemed to be a very quiet gurgling sound from Lenny’s stomach.
-widely.
At that point, I closed the book.
Checking the watch… It was 7:45.
Five minutes was no big deal. In 10 minutes, you can be patient, and in 20 minutes, you can barely condone under the excuse of missing the tram.
But after 40 minutes.
An hour is about to pass now.
… clearly.
Hector said he was the only one unable to participate in today’s meeting, and the rest of the members agreed to all the agenda to gather at the Ordo class stop in District 3 at 7 pm today.
The youth feel was also included there.
“I don’t think this is a little bit.”
Alfres, who was crossing his legs from the other side, spit out those words. It seems that I am hungry too. I was also slowly losing my hunger.
We were going to stop by a restaurant first to have a casual conversation, and then hold the meeting slowly in a cafe or something.
If there were no circumstances ready to convince the youth who arrived late, we would have to be prepared.
Because the group task had to be the most sensitive to the ‘promise’ above all else.
Not only do they have to do their jobs well, but when certain important promises are not kept properly, one mistake causes everything to collapse.
If you can’t keep even the most basic, basic, time commitment, it means you don’t have the heart to carry out the group task properly.
at that time.
—Cheek… …
The tram door opens.
“—Ah, I found it!”
In the rushing crowd of students, I see a blonde girl waving leisurely when she finds us while looking around.
“I’m sorry I’m late- Did everyone come first?”
come to I glanced at the figure of Youthpil running like that. It wasn’t a blatant and unpleasant gaze, but she was checking her hand, which had not heard anything.
——I don’t have a bag.
Lenny and Alfres, including me, all brought their bags. It must contain the book 「Mana Control I」 as I did. Anyway, we gathered this time to carry out the group task for that subject. Bringing a textbook was considered basic.
But to say that there is not even a bag… It would be in line with the saying that he lacked even the slightest will to carry out the task.
I couldn’t even breathe anymore.
“Exactly 58 minutes late. What happened?”
let’s hear it right away
“uh? Oh, that’s true- stop taking a bath. It felt so good I didn’t even know the time was passing. Sorry.”
Just as you did for me in the morning class, I immediately bow down. Even though I didn’t say I became myself, I quickly raised my head and tilted my head while looking at the atmosphere of ours that seemed to be somewhat stiff.
“… why are you you apologized sorry for being late It’s not that I didn’t say anything at all. Did I do a lot of f*cking shit? Can I apologize again?”
Whoops.
To her who is about to bow her head lightly again.
“Youthpil Deria.”
In the morning, Hector called out Youthpil’s name.
This time it was me.
After a moment’s pause, the youth feel tilted again.
“… What, why are you suddenly raising your voice? Are you mad?”
didn’t get mad I’m just very angry.
I asked calmly.
“When did you start taking a bath?”
Youth Phil ponders and answers.
“About 30 minutes ago… ?”
“You mean 6:30?”
“maybe… ?”
tak, tak.
I said as I tapped the straps with my fingers.
“… The tram ride from District 2 to here takes 10 to 20 minutes. But you started taking a bath 30 minutes before your appointment time?”
“I was going to finish it quickly, too-”
“Are you in a hurry to dry your hair completely? Do you know how to use advanced life magic? No. You see, he majored in divine arts. Did you have any divine magic to dry your hair?”
“… … ”
The youth pill became a honey-eaten dumb.
I ask in succession.
“Where did you put your bag? textbooks.”
“I forgot to leave because I was in a hurry.”
“… No, you’re not at all in a hurry are you? Do you think your words and actions now match?”

Did you say that you know how to keep good? don’t be bullshit If that had been the case, Hector and I wouldn’t have been in the classroom for three months.
Youth Feel wrinkled his brows.
“… … Hey, why are you like this? I told you that if I’m a dick, I’m a dick. you said sorry Isn’t it okay to do that next time? It seems like you crave people too much because you’re the least one hour late-“
If it was me, I would have gone through it moderately. Even if I was angry, there was room for forgiveness if I didn’t do it the next time as she said.
… … in the old saying.
People don’t change easily.
I didn’t rewrite it.
“You, just go back.”
“… … uh? What?”
I was pressing the narrowed forehead with my fingers.
He pointed over the shoulder of Youth Phil with the most chill.
“Because we don’t need you in our group. Turn it off.”
