The Only Male Student in the Academy chapter 114

114. Claire’s Melancholy (1)

‘… What is this?’

I was running through the academy grounds with Marie, and I was taken aback when I saw Lapisca blocking our way.

Why is this person here?

“I heard from junior Rose. You say you exercise every morning?”

“Yes, it is, but…”

“Could you give me a little time, junior Ariel Beheritt. About three minutes?”

Lapiska asks that with a refreshing smile.

I met Lapiska the other day in County of Findelnerca, and we fought together against Living Doll.

But I guess I still don’t know how to feel the distance with this person.

Lucius and Tiago met during the placement test, but broke off. So it would be a relationship that is neither friends nor anything.

Ron often visits the underground water shelter, so he has a good relationship with him and can be said to be an acquaintance.

I wonder if Rose and her girlfriend’s older sister are close enough to each other. She seems to be halfway between an acquaintance and her friend.

Then Lapisca…… Where would it be

I don’t think we’ve ever had a proper conversation to say we’re close.

But that’s not to say that she’s not in any relationship, because she once went on a raid together.

What a superficial relationship.

‘…… Why did such a person come?’

Doubtful, I glanced around.

Then Lapiska read my gaze and smiled.

“I’m going to make sure there’s no one else nearby and talk to them. There won’t be any rumors, right?”

“……Thank you for your consideration.”

The woman in front of me is also the top of the entire third year.

The academy’s second-in-command, following Erea, and the so-called ‘commons strongest’.

Among all the commoners at Philea Academy, Lapisca is said to be the strongest,

That’s why she is also called commoner’s hope…… What kind of person is she?

In a word, this person is as much an idol of the academy as Erua.

So, if they get entangled in the wrong way, there may be useless rumors.

“I’ll be honest. I heard that Junior Er A is trying to make Junior Ariel Beheritt her sister.”

Lapiska said so.

The first thing that came to her mind when she heard that was that she didn’t come here because of Lucius’s problem.

That’s fine as it is, but I’m a bit taken aback when Erua’s name comes up.

‘… Come to think of it, Erua had a contact with Lapisca.’

Era’s human relationships are really narrow. She is a guy who has little to no point of contact with others.

To say she is the people around her, she’s only two people in the academy.

One of hers is Vermulet Walsing, her sophomore overall second-best, who tries to compete with her for supremacy.

The other was Lapisca, who had a head-to-head confrontation with Erua.

She says yes, but Erra isn’t close with either of them.

“I don’t know about Ariel Beheritt’s juniors, but I actually tried to make her juniors in Er ah as her younger siblings.”

“…I know.”

So I know that the two of them had a confrontation, and as a result, Erua won and Lapisca withdrew.

“I think it’s good that I’ve been defeated now. What I wanted was something I couldn’t find from junior Erea, so I’m very satisfied with our Lucius.”

“Is that so?”

“It’s probably the same for Erua’s juniors. Even if she becomes a sister with me, she doesn’t benefit from Erua’s juniors too.”

After saying that, Lapis Car held out a piece of her memo.

It has the time and place written on it.

“Lastly, I want you to talk to junior Erea, junior Ariel Beheritt.”

“What if I said no?”

“You’re a cheeky junior. Even if I look like this, I’m pretty strong.”

“Is it a threat?”

“Yes, it’s a threat.”

At that moment, a cool sensation ran down her neck.

When I realized, the blade was slightly touching the nape of my neck.

“Eh, Ariel…!”

“Don’t come closer, Marie.”

I didn’t see the motion of drawing the sword. A knife was stabbed in the neck somewhere.

… I was quite perplexed in my heart, but I managed to calm myself down somehow.

This will be a performance no matter what.

Lapisca is not an evil person who can harm people.

“Your behavior is rather savage.”

“I can’t help it. For me, junior Ariel Beheritt and junior Erua, if I had to ask which one is more important, it’s the junior Erua.”

With that said, Lapis Car retrieved her sword.

I’m not sure if that face was smiling or not. She

When she tried to check her expression, Lapiska was already turning her back.

“If junior Ariel Beheritt won’t come, we’ll have to go there. If you’re confident enough to handle it.”

After saying that, Lapiska leaves.

I threw the note at me as if I was just shaking it off,

She fell to the ground as if dancing.

When Marie let out a sigh of relief beside her, Lapis Car was gone. Her

Instead of her, only her memo is left where she was.

With a sigh, I picked it up.

“Eh, Ariel…. Guess, are you okay…?”

“It’s okay.”

Compared to Claire’s threat in the first semester, I’d say it’s cute.

It’s just that she sometimes has a mad dog side that doesn’t choose any means or methods.

Conversely, if you listen carefully, there is no big problem.

“It’s just a bit annoying…”

A refreshing morning.

Fatigue came quickly.

I’ve said it many times, but what Claire hates most is boredom.

Of course, what Claire spends the most time on is killing time.

Recently, I had to come up with something to enjoy, but that is only possible when the time and place are well matched.

That’s why it was Claire’s routine to spend time reading books, chatting with her followers, or even self-discipline.

For Claire, the most irritating thing in the world was a situation where she couldn’t even let her mind pass.

This is the top floor of the Philea Academy Cultural Center building.

This so-called ‘rooftop garden’, where the scent of grass and flowers vibrates, is restricted to some students.

There Claire played with her fingernails, listening to her chatter.

“Then is it my turn to report? Nothing to report. More than that.”

The girl sitting at the bottom of the table said so.

She was a girl with an unusual appearance. The color of her hair was so unique.

His hair is dyed in various colors like a rainbow, and he has tattoos drawn under his eyes.

She had piercings stuck in her ears and lips, and her school uniform had been remodeled and had a lot of bizarre accessories attached to it.

When a girl with a look that could only be regarded as a delinquent by anyone could say that,

The girl with long, straight hair seemed to be annoyed by that comment and glared at her.

“Vermulet Walsing, look and be straight.”

“I’ve done everything I need to see, but what are you?”

“Does it make sense that you have nothing to report. What have you been doing at the academy?”

“Yes, I sent it as usual. Nothing has changed between yesterday and the day before yesterday, so I have nothing to report.”

“Anyway, this is why the lower nobles…”

The girl with long straight hair kicked her tongue, and the delinquent girl kicked her tongue.

“That sucks. So, can you even talk about Er à Blaine Cleat? I applied for a duel and she was turned down.”

“I’ve heard that story dozens of times. Do you have anything else to report?”

“I’m sorry Cha-am~. I don’t have anything to report~. Then, a high-ranking nobleman should have a nice report!”

“…Ha ha.”

Claire sighed involuntarily.

Because the surrounding atmosphere is low…… It is not.

No, it definitely had to be low level, but there was a more fundamental problem than that.

It’s not fun at all.

“You seem upset, Lord Entirus.”

A word that seemed to penetrate Claire’s insides.

Claire grabbed all of her loose tension and straightened her back.

“You’re not in a good mood. Contrary to what you see, you seem to hate noise.”

Having said that, she put her chin on her chin.

It didn’t feel like a dignified look, but I felt a strange charisma.

Looking down on others is naturally ingrained in the body…… Even that expression doesn’t suit her very much.

Just as it is natural for living things to breathe and drink water,

From the moment she was born, it was natural for her to be on top of someone.

So, she is just living the life she was given.

“Leave it alone though. Being nervous with each other is less fun for me.”

She continued with an annoyed voice.

Christierp Arfelixia.

The owner of this faction, and the first princess.

The most influential figure as the next emperor to lead the empire.

“I must have offended Your Highness. I will apologize.”

“There’s no need for that. I want you to be honest here too….But yes.”

The princess’s eyes turned this way.

Like a dead fish…… Eyes that do not feel like luster.

“If you feel sorry for making me feel bad, then on the contrary, you can make me happy.”

The princess said so.

I feel it all over again. She said that the princess really is an eccentric.

Even though she has her powers and abilities, she doesn’t try to use them, and it feels like she’s watching the world with her face, as if everything is annoying.

A person who is rather lazy than she looks, she hates moving more than anything else.

Even now, she is buried in a chair and has no intention of moving.

Black tea and snacks in front of her…… She didn’t touch her at all, as if it was too much trouble to move her hands.

“Have fun. I’m worried that someone like me who is lacking will be able to entertain Her Highness.”

With that said, Claire pondered what to say.

Then, there was someone on the other side who spoke to me as if tossing it.

“Come to think of it, Ms. Entirus, there’s been a strange rumor these days. Rumors that you’re hanging out with a duke’s idiot.”

A girl speaks in a voice that seems to be ridiculed.

Hilka Mardis.

To put her in a nutshell, she is an opportunist.

“I heard everything. I heard you went to the catacombs dungeons in the County of Findelnerca with the duke’s madman?”

“So?”

“The reason why my grades were ruined in the first semester was because I fell for the duke’s idiot? I guess they’re dating?”

She says that with a blatant smile.

I can feel the intention to somehow undermine Claire’s authority.

Hilka Mardis is one level lower than Claire, but She

She Instead, she was also the student who had the best grades among the students of the Divine Battle Department this year.

She was able to catch the princess’s eyes because she was a spirit psychic who followed the nature faith, which was quite rare even in Philea Academy.

It is an ulterior motive to use her excellent grades and his own idiosyncrasies to somehow step on Claire and become the princess’s right-hand man.

‘It sucks~.’

I think about the princess.

I think Claire is a rare and irresistible character, and one worthy of respect. He was a very lazy person, but he was a person who didn’t waste anything in his life.

Her letting her aides go free also wasn’t because the princess was a benevolent person.

By exposing all of her true nature in front of him, he deliberately created this atmosphere in preparation for the time when he took the reins of her someday.

‘Do I really want to become the princess’s servant?’

And Claire, he didn’t really want to be her subordinate.

Her Being close to her is for the sake of her family.

To be more specific, it was because the Marquis of Antirus ── my father told me to be friendly with her princess.

She felt quite right while joining this faction of hers, but her princess was not someone worthy of becoming her own master.

She’s just a princess, she just puts herself by her side. She doesn’t seem to have any desire to dominate herself, nor does she seem to have any intention of giving away her pleasure.

So if she could yield this position of hers to Hilka, she would.

“That’s a bit of an interesting story. When you say duke’s idiot, you mean the second son of duke Beheritt, right? Is Lord Mardis’s words true, Lord Antirus?”

The princess’s dead fish-like eyes are slightly lively.

Seeing that, Claire narrowed his eyes.

“Yes, it’s true. Ariel, the second son of the Duke of Beheritt, has always been a childhood friend.”

“A childhood friend of Lord Entirus. They seem to be quite close.”

“Yes, I am. But, I am a boring person.”

Claire said so.

Then the princess glanced at her and averted her eyes.

“I see.”

That was the only reaction.

Those eyes that seemed to have turned her life back into pupils like dead fish.

First Princess, Christirp Arfelicia.

She To briefly summarize her, she is a person who is greedy for talent.

He is a man who tries to put special people in the palm of his hand.

“Yes. He ranks in the middle ranks in terms of grades, and ranks low in influence within the ducal family. There is nothing special about him.”

So Claire said that.

Because the princess wasn’t interested in Ariel.

So, she needs to turn her princess’ gaze elsewhere.

“Let’s talk about something different than that guy. You know why. He’s the one who got rid of the Duke of Bamir faction.”

Was your name Lucius?
