Chapter 123
Fron’s cold stare.
I couldn’t help but flinch and tremble and watch her movements.
She knew she had to get up off the floor, but the air that emanated from her was so cold.
That’s why it’s hard to raise the body easily.
In the meantime.
widely-.
Fron closed the door to his dorm and rolled his eyes and smiled.
“What are you doing in front of my room?”
“that.”
“Stop being unsightly and let’s go to class.”
A voice full of playfulness, as before.
Looking at that alone, I could have judged that there was nothing wrong with her, but I just couldn’t.
swish-.
It was when I was looking at the back of Pron, who started walking past me.
[Adele, that guy… … .]
“Yes, I saw it too.”
Samuel spoke in a serious voice, and I agreed.
Clearly, Fron’s eyes were not the dead dynamic eyes he had seen before.
Rather, the two pupils, which contained a strangely bright light, were full of life.
but.
Her mouth wasn’t smiling.
“… … Tsk.”
I sighed in frustration and scratched the back of my head.
And I reflected on the past of the pron I witnessed through the necklace.
Thousands of iron bars imprisoning hundreds of children.
The children surrounded by them had a somewhat gloomy impression.
That’s why ‘her’ stood out the most.
She is very similar to Pron.
Unlike the other children, she had a very bright impression.
Could it be that Pron and her are sisters?
or not.
“… … Probably everyone there.”
[What are you talking about?]
“it’s nothing.”
When Samuel asked me about my murmur, I shook my head excitedly.
Being able to see the past through the necklace was still a secret.
I was the only one who could even see the light in the necklace.
That means that even if Samuel is parasitic on my body, I can’t get a glimpse of Pron’s past with me.
anyway,
“It hurts.”
[…] … It seems so.]
Samuel and I were depressed.
I don’t know if Fron had asked for help by complaining of his pain, but the series of actions he just showed me would be a roundabout refusal.
not to care about yourself.
So there was very little we could do for Fron.
It’s just like waiting until Fron can overcome it.
The question is whether you can overcome it alone… … .
Still, I had to believe it.
“For now, we’ve succeeded in getting them to participate in class again, so Instructor Ares won’t say anything else.”
[Indeed, if you look at Instructor Ares’ personality, he might become a class president and scold him for not being able to do these things.]
“… … It won’t happen.”
It is true that Ares was very strict with me and showed disapproval.
But that was only when there was suspicion that I was a spy.
After the midterm exams, it was only recently that I was wary of killing myself.
Didn’t that also ease my vigilance when I raised the level of mana management and stopped killing myself?
Unlike Edea, he didn’t treat me with special treatment, but at least he treated me as a cadet.
It was just that good.
If I give too much attention like Edea, I feel burdened.
[Hmm, actually, Ares is the most instructor-like of the instructors.]
“… … That’s all.”
A man with many things to learn from.
Although sometimes she shows a colder side than Edea.
Even that is considered a calculated act.
for example.
Unless it was a matter where the lives of the cadets depended, he basically did not intervene in disputes or conflicts between cadets.
It is to leave the resolution and coordination of conflicts to the decisions of the living.
That is, it was like this.
“Instructor Ares must have thought that we could solve this problem.”
[…] … He doesn’t say anything and keeps his mouth shut, but I don’t know how to solve it.]
Samuel’s opinion was valid.
surely.
It seemed difficult to solve the case unless Fron opened his mouth.
If you say there is no way.
‘… … It doesn’t exist.’
If you look into the past of Fron more accurately through the necklace.
maybe it can be solved
And the necklace will be activated around the holidays.
After looking at Samuel’s past, it was activated in less than two months.
To do so, it was necessary to see Pron once again during vacation.
the problem is,
‘I’m asking if it’s worth spending my vacation time on… … .’
There were many things to do during vacation.
You have to attack information and unexplored regions that Kyle must have known, and you have to return to the Barares family and talk to Crete.

Not only that, but isn’t it a situation where you have to visit Samuel’s temple?
Is it necessary to invest that tight time to find out the past of Fron?
Although it is clear that Pron will become a much stronger force if he overcomes his trauma, the process will never be smooth.
but.
‘… … If I assume that ‘it’ is correct.’
The need to help Fron was sufficient.
If that happens, he’ll be able to step into the realm needed to face off against Diana.
so,
‘For now, let’s think about vacation.’
I didn’t have to make a decision right away, and no matter what I did, Fron wouldn’t be able to overcome the trauma in the current situation.

Now I just have to watch… … .
That’s how we moved on without getting a good harvest.
* * *
Ares’ class is over.
In the end, Fron did not fight with me, and left after sitting in the shade placed on the side of the playground.
I wanted to go up to her and talk to her, but I couldn’t turn my steps because I wasn’t in the mood to do that.
Excluding what I saw with the necklace, Luna, who had heard of what Samuel and I had seen, went to Fron.
“… … .”
Still, Fron maintained a cold attitude and just ignored Luna.
… … Because of that, I remembered Luna’s tearful image, and my heart ached.
anyway,
The problem with the pron could not be solved right now, so I decided to put it aside during the vacation.
What I need to focus on is preparing for the final exam.
Thus, after Ares’ class, Robolt’s magic class began.
In the meantime, we learned the ‘silence’ magic that will appear in the magic test of the final exam.
Thanks to Adele’s talent, I was able to master Silence magic perfectly, but it was a bit disappointing.
because.
‘It’s not easy to combine.’
The stealth technique that Robolt taught me.
I was very curious about what would happen if the ‘silence’ magic, which was clearly synergistic with stealth, was combined.
However, it was not easy to combine the two magics and fully apply them to my body.
“hmm… … .”
While I was messing around with my head in trouble.
Samuel’s voice was full of absurdity.
[You have no conscience.]
“… … What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
[You already know that silence magic is harder to learn than stealth, so I won’t tell you. It’s more difficult to use both at the same time, rather than learning which magic to use in which situation… … … .]
Samuel’s increasingly lengthy explanation.
I let his words go through one ear and focused on using both silence magic and stealth.
When it came to assassination, I couldn’t even imagine how strong it would be if I could use stealth and silence magic at the same time.
Stealth and Silence Magic.
After moving to the opponent’s rear with a position exchange there.
If you unleash the newly developed technology, ‘Black Rose’… … .
It was truly an unprecedented assassination technique.
Besides that, I had a lot of characteristics and skills.
but.
‘This is absolutely not enough.’
My current skill level is just a little below Baltan.
During the invasion of the human world, it was less than Baltan’s toes.
But now, the total amount of mana for me has exceeded 4,000.
So the gap is insignificant, but doesn’t Baltan have abilities that I don’t have?
Fighting spirit, an ability that can only be used when reaching the state of martial arts.
Unfortunately, I hadn’t mastered fighting spirit.
The power of the black rose was comparable to an attack loaded with fighting spirit.
‘… … Fighting spirit only consumes mental power, but the black rose boasts of extreme mana consumption.’
This was unavoidable.
In the end, it’s a situation where you have to learn assassination skills again rather than an all-out war.
It’s not really a bad situation.
My abilities were originally focused on assassination.
In the middle of using silence magic and stealth techniques alternately.
Out of curiosity, I threw a question to Samuel.
“By the way, Samuel-sama made strange gestures when using magic.”
[Strange gesture?]
“Yes, like extending your hand forward. Aren’t you wiggling your fingers like this?”
Samuel moved his hand each time he cast a spell.
Of course, one could say that moving the hands is normal, but the hand movements were unusual to say so.
I showed Samuel the actions he takes when he uses his magic.
Then Samuel spoke like this.
[What did you ask, it’s not just me, but it can be said that it’s a kind of preliminary action that wizards have. Some don’t, but I’m comfortable doing it. Concentration is also quite high.]
“ah.”
I understood at once.
Also, the explanation is amazingly good.
in short.
“You mean it’s similar to the chants of human wizards.”
[You understand quickly.]
Like the chant used by Besaha in the human world, Samuel takes action to finish the preparations for magic.
Come to think of it, did Robolt also snap his fingers every time he used magic?
It was when I was thinking like that.
[You don’t have that kind of motion? Some wizards set that sequence of actions as conditions for the activation of magic.]
“Hmm, not really.”
I had a similar behavior as well.
To be precise, it wasn’t me, it belonged to the original owner of this body.
A villainous character with narrow eyes.
I thought of the most suitable motion for this, so I naturally came to describe it.
I’ve never used it myself, so I don’t know how it works.
Since the movement is already ingrained in the body, there may be some kind of harvest.
‘… … Let’s try it.’
I curled my lips and smiled.
My eyebrows drew an arc, and my face was filled with laughter.
Ssuk-.
In response, I raised my index finger and brought it to my lips.
And the moment when Silence Magic and Stealth were unfolded at the same time.
yes-.
Even I couldn’t hear my breathing or my heartbeat.
spurt.
Through the blurry vision, the face of the robot staring at me in amazement came into my field of vision.
It was a moment, but it disappeared from his sight, so he couldn’t help but be surprised.
As if I felt the flow of my mana, the windless voice of Samuel tickled my ear.
[…] … Crazy.]
