Episode 98
After hearing the story about the familiar from Edea.
All classes for today are over.
Since it was right after the midterm exam, the instructors tried to create a relaxed atmosphere as much as possible without intensively conducting the class.
In the case of robots, they show magic demonstrations… … .
There wasn’t much to learn, but it was quite interesting and fun.
The moment I was about to get up from my seat.
“You bastard!”
Fron’s voice was heard.
She was pointing at me and making a conceited face.
I blinked and looked at Fron.
“What are you doing?”
“Let’s bet!”
“I bet out of nowhere… … .”
He shrugged his shoulders and tilted his head at the sight of Pron showing his chest.
Maybe I ate something wrong at lunchtime.
When I put on a worried expression, Fron had a seizure, probably in a bad mood.
“It’s not as strange as you think… … !”
“Then what bet do you want to make?”
I couldn’t quite understand what she was trying to say.
Shouldn’t he tell me what kind of bet he wants to make?
It wouldn’t be a strange bet.
It was when I was guessing what bet Fron was up to.
“Maybe that is it.”
Luna, who approached me and Fron, opened her mouth.
If so, what is it?
“I wish I could explain it properly, but what bet are you talking about?”
“The midterm exam results are being released this time, so I think it means let’s make a bet with them.”
“You got the right answer, now it seems that you have enough qualities to become my slave.”
“Uh, huh? that’s a little… … sorry… … !”
Luna flatly refuses Fron’s words to become her slave.
Even so, he was embarrassed by Fron’s gaze.
Shall we say that he looks like an introverted child who refuses to ask for help?
In response, I shook my head and said to Luna.
“Nothing to worry about. It’s a joke.”
“I-I see. Anyway, it seems that the test results have been released this time. Would you like to go see it together?”
“great.”
I nodded at Luna’s suggestion and got up from the chair.
I needed to get good grades like the last time to get into Saitan’s weapons depot once again.
It was a moment of anticipation whether Ares would score well.
Seeing that they handed over Sijo to me, I don’t think they would have given it a low score.
I wonder if it would be nice to have a little bit of hope.
‘Come to think of it… … .’
I have to get Samuel up because he needs to check his score.
I blew a small amount of mana into the thorns.
Then the thorn trembled, and Samuel’s weary voice came out.
[…] … To disturb my sleep, did something else happen?]
“It seems that the midterm exam scores have been released this time. Let’s check it out together.”
[Well, if that’s the case.]
Samuel willingly accepted, perhaps wondering about his score.
It has no choice but to be.
I risked my life to fight Terias, but I can’t give you any points.
At least my score and Samuel’s score would be close to perfect.
Unlike Samuel and I, who swelled their hearts with anticipation, Luna showed a look of nervousness.
“I think I got a good score… … .”
“Are you concerned?”
“Yeah, as you know, I have no money. I need a scholarship and living expenses this time… … .”
“okay.”
In Saitan, living expenses and scholarships are provided according to the difference in grades.
In fact, living expenses were not very necessary for the cadets.
Saitan also rented training equipment and equipment, so there was no need to prepare personal equipment.
Of course, it would be nice to have one.
“The most urgent thing must be the scholarship.”
“Yeah, you must get it.”
Luna nodded.
In the case of me, Samuel, and Fron, we were exempted from tuition because we had excellent grades in the entrance exam.
If nothing else happens, we won’t have to pay school fees in the future.
Saitan needs excellent commanders who can go to war, so talented cadets like Samuel and I are given preferential treatment.
However, it was not that they demanded a huge amount of tuition for ordinary cadets.
However, for Luna, who is ostracized from the society of demons because she is anti-demons, even that must be a difficult cost to obtain.
I comforted Luna.
“You will be fine. Even if you don’t get it, there are ways to get your tuition.”
“… … Adele If you’re going to pay for it, you don’t have to. Because I don’t want to be accepted by friends.”
Luna quickly expressed her refusal, as if she was bothered by the fact that she was indebted to me financially.
At this, I smiled and opened my mouth.
“If you ever need my help, let me know. I heard everything from the medical instructor.”
“Uh, huh? what… … ?”
“They said that he continued to treat my body throughout the operation. I should have said thanks in advance.”
“That, that… … .”
Luna continued to nurse me through the surgery.
After saying that, Luna’s face instantly turned red.
The reaction is quite interesting.
Rather, Luna didn’t have to worry about that in the first place.
‘Because the score must have come out well.’
There was a high probability that he wouldn’t have gotten a very good score in Ares’ weapon skill test.
but.
He probably didn’t get particularly bad grades on the theory and magic exams.
In the case of midterm exams, she saved many cadets with her recovery ability, so there was no reason for the instructors to give Luna a bad score.
If it was Luna, it would have been easy to record high grades.
rather the problem.
“I don’t know why you are so confident… … .”
I turned my gaze to the blue-haired woman with a conceited expression on her face.
Pron, she was still smirking while holding on to her dignified expression.
no way.
Is there even a back stomach?
“Huh, you’ll know when you see it. I feel pretty good today.”
“… … You can’t get good grades just because you feel good, right?”
I don’t know if I felt good on the day I took the test.
In a situation where more than a week has passed since you have already taken the test, you have to feel good to get a good score.
Samuel also uttered a pathetic voice toward Fron, probably feeling the same way as I did.
[Still insane.]
“what?!”
Fron’s eyes widened at Samuel’s provocation and his hands wriggled.
Just like the last time, he was trying to pull Samuel and give him a hard time.
As if Samuel was surprised by this, the thorns began to tremble.
If you pull the thorn at will, it looks pretty painful.
I hurriedly continued to rescue Samuel from Fron’s clutches.
“Okay, let’s go for a moment.”
“Don’t let me see you this time.”
[…] … .]
Fron clicked his tongue as if regretting it and dragged his steps.
Anyway, Fron’s score must be much lower than ours.
I couldn’t understand how confident he was to compare scores with me.
for a moment.
What if I win the bet?
It was a self-evident story that my score for this midterm exam was definitely higher than Pron’s.
I should have gotten a good score in the theory score, and I even overpowered Ares in the weapon skill test.
The same goes for the human invasion test and the magic test.
I could say there was no chance I would lose the bet with her.
so that.
“What would you like to bet on?”
“Oh, did you finally make up your mind?”
“It’s because I’m not the type to just avoid challenges from others.”
To be precise, the personality that doesn’t avoid the challenge of those weaker than me.
In response to my answer, Fron narrowed his eyes and said.
“For things like that, it seemed like he was always avoiding the fight against the self-restraint of jealousy.”
“… … It’s because of my mood.”
I pretended not to know and looked away.
Then, the tongue-tied Fron opened his mouth.
“Well, don’t accept the offer. As a prize for betting, I will give you an invitation ticket!”
“Are you talking about invitations?”
“Yes. It’s an invitation ticket to enter the original woman’s mansion.”
“hmm.”
I did get interested.
Of the mansions of the Seven Deadly Sins, the only ones I saw were the Barares family and the Samuel family I saw through the necklace.
At the time, Samuel’s mansion had been demolished in half, so he couldn’t see it properly, but he had a sense of how big the Baares family’s mansion was.
Then, what about Fron’s mansion?
I’m a little curious.
Together.
“Does it benefit me?”
What can I get from going to Fron’s mansion?
At most, it would be the food prepared by the servants of the mansion.
Fron puffed his cheeks at my blunt answer.
“If you don’t like it, don’t, there are many other people besides you who want to go.”
“No, I’m not saying I won’t go. All right. I will give you a daily slave license instead.”
“A daily slave license?”
“Yes, this is a license to use me freely for a day.”
“Heh, good!”
Fron accepted the offer at once.
Victory is obvious anyway.
Let’s go to Fron’s house next time and figure out what to eat.
It was when I was thinking like that.
Busy Busy -.
The cadets are buzzing.
Looking at it, it seemed that this was the place where the report card was attached.
As if it were a bit old-fashioned, the human rights of the cadets were not respected.
The results being released to the whole world.
“Aww, I’m nervous… … .”
[I’m looking forward to it.]
“!”
We made our way through the crowd to check our report cards.
I started looking at it slowly from the bottom.
The number of freshmen in Saitan is 120 in total.
what would have happened
“Let’s see from the 50th place. It will be on it anyway.”
“I see.”
“Except you.”
“This guy… … !”
First of all, our names were not written until the top 40.
And when it reached the top 30.
【 38th, Luna. 】
“Luna.”
Luna’s name was written on it.
Ranked 38th.
It was a narrow line to receive a scholarship.
“I did it!”
At this, Luna jumped up and expressed her joy.
I looked at her with delight and raised my gaze upward.
Then what about our grades?
Because Samuel and I would of course have higher grades than Luna.
Our results were not visible until we passed the 30th and 20th places.
In response, Fron tilted his head and expressed his doubts.
“Is it higher up?”
“Because you are below.”
“Hey, let’s see.”
We fought hard and looked at the top 10.
Only then did I start to see the names I knew.
【 8th place, Airon. 】
Airon, the son of Sloth, ranked 8th.
And on top of Aeron,
【 7th, Samuel. 】
Samuel’s name appeared.
Seeing that there are seven children of the Seven Deadly Sins, it seems that I have beaten some of the children of the Seven Deadly Sins.
I looked up.
【 6th place, Guwar. 】
【 5th place, Lene. 】
Past my master Rene.
right on top of it.
【 4th place, Adele. 】
My name was written on it.
“oh.”
I opened my eyes wide.
I never dreamed that I would have beaten Rene.
By now, my skills should be similar to Rene’s, but since Rene was in the same class as Diana, I knew she would get a higher score than me.
when you’re thinking like that.
Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind.
‘for a moment.’
The children of the Seven Deadly Sins are left with only Baltan and Diana besides me and Pron.
… … So, who is the guy up here?
Is it another variable I don’t know about, or that a strong person exists in Saitan?
no way.
I could only look up with quivering pupils.
【 3rd place, Diana. 】
【 2nd place, Baltan. 】
Past those two, who are the strongest of Saitan in name and reality.
Really, it was because the cadet’s ridiculous name was the chief and occupied the first place.
【 1st place, Fron. 】
