149 – [Side Story] Student from the East Continent – 08
The number of students at Belnoa Academy includes nobles and commoners, as well as those from foreign countries, and is comprised of lower and upper class students. There are hundreds of students in total. Although it is an academy attended by such a large number of students, word spreads very quickly.
The rumor that the rumored international student, Sir Wentoth, had caused a conflict with the crown prince and his party quickly spread throughout the academy.
Of course, the rumor reached Martina Wilthard’s ears.
“Miss Sir!!”
Seeing Martina running towards her, calling for her, Sir greeted her with her smile.
“Ah, Senior Martina. Hello.”
“I… Heard this story! I was going to duel with His Highness…”
“Huh? How did you know that…?”
“Rumors have now spread throughout the academy! Ah…How on earth did something like that happen…?”
Martina’s complexion was pale.
An order given by the emperor through his father, the duke.
Make sure that there is no inconvenience in the academy life of international student Sir Wenthos.
It was an order given to both himself and Prince Joshua, but Prince Joshua ignored the order and was busy leading his gang and having fun.
But it was okay.
Martina Wiltard gave up on the Crown Prince’s cooperation early on, and somehow supported Sirwentos on her own.
Fortunately, Sir himself got used to Belnoa Academy very quickly and blended into those around him with his unique charm, so he was able to somehow carry out the emperor’s orders even with the support of Martina.
But then, I never thought there would be a conflict with the crown prince here.
She was complacent, thinking that since the Crown Prince himself had no interest in Sirwenthoth, she would be fine.
“Do…What on earth happened?”
“Ah…That’s it…”
After that, I heard from Sir about the cause of this incident.
Martina’s expression turned sour after hearing that story.
Oh my god.
Unable to accept the results, she accuses him of cheating on her exam.
In the first place, Belnoa Academy can be said to be the best educational facility in the West Continent, both in name and reality.
The level and curriculum of the classes can also be said to be the best in the West Continent.
Alleging that there was cheating in the exam at Belnoa Academy is an insult to the professors who supervised the exam.
Besides, Martina knew.
She compared the scores on the entrance exam and the results of this midterm exam.
Chris Maletti scored high on the written exam.
He had been receiving close to perfect scores on the written exams he had been taking throughout the first semester, but his grades had tended to be poor recently.
And this midterm exam was noticeably worse than the entrance exam results.
Nevertheless, I thought it was amazing that he somehow managed to take second place.
It’s not like Chris, who originally had a very high score, but the Crown Prince and Prince Fortis’s scores were also dropping quite a bit.
So, the crown prince and all his followers’ grades had fallen.
Why? Look at their usual movements.
If you’re bored in class, it’s normal to be late or skip school, and your grades will go up even if you put your studies on the back burner and hang out.
Although the story was only two days before the midterm exam, she saw Martina, who had gone into town with her personal servant to buy some ink that had run out.
Even though she had her exams coming up soon, she saw Prince Joshua hanging out with his gang and her daughter Alyssa.
Of course, she spoke as her fiancee, but Prince Joshua still does not even listen to her words.
She eventually backed down and told me to do my best for this test, but in the end, she didn’t fail the test.
Because the basics are good, it still maintains a high ranking, but if it continues like this, it is visible that the ranking will gradually decline.
In such a situation, they are accusing international students who scored higher than them of test fraud.

Martina felt a deep sigh come out of her mouth at such a pitiful act.
“…Miss Sir, please stop the duel. I will speak a mantra to His Majesty the Emperor…”
Although he is called a pathetic little boy, Prince Joshua’s swordsmanship skills are real.
She has seen Martina’s skills since her childhood, so her concerns about Martina may be natural.
But Sir shook his head.
“No, now that things have come to this, I want to proudly prove that I did not cheat. And…”
“And…?”
“My father always said, if the other person starts an argument without a reason, give them a reason to argue in the future and crush it from the front.”
“……”
…Is this the right thing to say to a noble lady?
Martina was confused as to what kind of people Sir’s family was.
Of course she didn’t know Martina.
Sir’s father, who said those words, was beaten on the back by his wife, asking her what he was teaching his daughter.
“Phew… I understand. But you must be careful.”
“Yes! I understand!!”
If she wants to do it, you can’t stop her.
And even if there is a duel, it is a duel that takes place under the supervision of a professor.
Martina thought that Sir would never be in danger.
‘I have to report to His Majesty…’
Even so, this situation may become a big problem later.
Martina decided that she would prepare to write her letter to the Emperor.
“Mr. Nord, are you okay?”
“…Okay, I’m fine.”
Afternoon after class.
A welcome guest came to Nord, who was hospitalized in the ward.
Alyssa Leipert.
This is the girl that Nord Uboris is in love with.
The eyes that were looking at Nord with concern flashed sharply for a moment.
“…How is your physical condition?”
“They said I could be discharged tomorrow. But they said the aftereffects would remain.”
“I see, that’s…Actually.”
Alyssa told everything that happened after Nord was taken to the ward.
Everyone was summoned by the professor.
In front of the professor, Sir Wenthos complained that he may have cheated on the test.
In order to prove the result, Sir Wentoth had a duel with both Prince Joshua and Prince Portis.
“…Yes, I see.”
However, Nord’s voice did not have the same spirit as always.
Unbeknownst to Alyssa, Nord heard about her condition from teacher Arina in the ward after her father left.
She said she had lost her reproductive function.
Nord was greatly shocked by the fact that his lower body was not responding at all.
Apart from the hatred for Sir Wentoth, a great sense of futility came to the Nord.
Looking at Nord like that, Alyssa narrowed her gaze.
‘I can’t use this…’
Not knowing what Alyssa was thinking, Nord smiled bitterly.
“Duel…I guess I can at least observe. I’ll go cheer you on.”
“Yes. But please don’t overdo it and take good care of yourself.”
Alyssa’s expression quickly changed and she smiled.
“Shall I go and kill them all?”
The dormitory room assigned to Sir.
There, over hot cocoa, Lilu spoke her harsh words.
Seeing Lilu like that, Sir gave her a bitter smile.
“It’s okay, this is a challenge I was given.”
“But such rude behavior towards Sir…It’s hard to bear.”
“…You can’t hang it again.”
Sir’s personal attendant, Lilu Arma, is an elf.
This is an elf who has always watched and watched Sir’s growth since his birth.
Lilu, who had deep respect and affection for Sir, always felt that way.
When she was still young, at a banquet she attended with her parents, she once hung the noble children who played pranks on Cyr and giggled from a tree.
So, Sir was a little worried that an angry Lilu might do the same thing again.
“……Tsk.”
Seeing Lilu silently withdrawing from her mouth again, Sir broke into a cold sweat.
She really meant to hang herself.
“Sir. It’s regular contact time.”
“Oh, right. That’s right.”
Sir smiled as Lilu accepted the crystal ball she held out to him.
After coming to the West Continent, it was a time I always looked forward to.
When she infused magic into her crystal ball, a blurry image appeared above it.
Soon the shape became clearer and took on the shape of a human being.
『Ah, it’s my sister!』
“Tania! You had a crystal ball today.”
A girl with blue hair smiling brightly at herself.
Seeing Tania Wenthos, Sir also smiled.
“What about dad and mom?”
『Yes, Dad and Riel’s Mom went on a date together!!』
Hmm, you are still the same.
Sir smiles as he thinks about his parents, whom he still has a good relationship with.
He seemed to be full of energy these days and seemed to be really happy.
“What about Calia and Leon?”
『You both study! Luca is watching you, so you won’t be able to come out for a while, right?』
Unlike Tania, who is still young, the two are busy studying various things.
Thinking of the two people studying with tears in their eyes under Luca’s sharp watch, a bitter smile formed on Sir’s lips.
『Sister! When can you come?』
“Ugh…I think it will take a little longer. I’m sorry.”
『Riel’s mom said her older sister was going to do something important! Are you okay!”
Even as he said that, Sir smiled, looking at Tania, who had a bit of loneliness in her eyes.
Although she was still young and liked to play, I really loved her younger sister who sometimes showed a dignified side.
『Sister. This is blinking.』
“I guess I’m running out of magic. I’ll contact you again next time.”
『Yes! Sister!! Love you!!”
“Yes! I love Tania too!”
Soon, the light disappeared from her crystal ball, and Tania’s appearance also disappeared.
Cyr thought about her family and gathered her heart once again.
