“Hoo… Is this the room I will be assigned to?”

“…”

Minwoo entered a club room in the annex under the guidance of Lucia. Because she had made a request in advance, the interior of the clubhouse had already been set up in the way Minwoo wanted.

It was an unfamiliar sight to Lucia, a person from another world, but Minwoo knew what motif this place was designed with.

Office desk and chair. A bookshelf containing unknown props and books. If you look at it up to that point, it looked like any other office, but there was one thing: furniture that you wouldn’t see in an ordinary office took up the entire wall.

It was a bed with white curtains drawn. Unlike the canopy, the curtain surrounding the entire bed was designed so that the inside could not be seen unless it was opened from the entrance.

“Hehe… This is a very ideal view of the nurse’s office. I like it. I like it very much.”

“..I’m glad you like it.”

I’m not sure what Minwoo was muttering, but he was Lucia, who had no interest in such things in the first place. She looked at Minwoo making a fuss about her alone with pitiful eyes, then turned around and said,

“Then I’ll just leave. Anyway, I’m busy…”

She didn’t know what kind of shame she would face if she stayed with this man any longer. Due to her previous experience in the student council room, Lucia gave Minwoo full permission to participate in her health department activities. Of course, it was just an improvisation to avoid immediate embarrassment.

“Wait a minute.”

“?”

This time, Minwoo spoke with a smile as he looked at Lucia, who turned around with an expression as if she was saying something.

“Could you please give me directions to the school? Since this is my first time, I think I will get lost if I continue like this.”

“…”

At Minwoo’s words, Lucia sighed slightly and nodded her head. Even though she had noticed that he was busy, the man’s attitude of putting an iron plate on her face and asking her for such a favor was extremely infuriating, but he said she was the emperor’s recommender, so he couldn’t treat her carelessly.

“Then let’s go.”

“Oh, and… “

“?”

“There is no need to treat me with such respect, as I am your junior. It is a burden.”

“..Okay.”

Lucia said and began to walk in front of her with her chilly demeanor. Minwoo leisurely followed her a little behind, admiring her back.

…

After Lucia showed Minwoo through her main building and annex buildings in turn, she headed to her indoor training center, which was located a little away from the two buildings. She was a place where knightly students sparred and practiced magic that was difficult to practice in a narrow classroom.

“Student President?”

“Anes.”

The student council vice president, Agnes, who had just finished sparring with another special knight student, was wiping her sweat with a towel given to her by her junior when she noticed Lucia’s appearance and approached her. Minwoo observed Agnes’ appearance with deep eyes.

The ponytail tied behind her reminded me of Luna, but her color was jade, reminiscent of the blue sea. Also, unlike Luna, who hid her voluptuous breasts with her bandages, Agnes was the slender type. However, the only thing that remained the same was that she was showing off her overflowing health and beauty.

Agnes must have sensed Minwoo’s gaze on her, so she glared at him with sharp eyes and spoke to Lucia.

“What’s going on here?”

“..I was giving transfer students a tour of the campus. It’s not a big deal, so just focus on your training.”

“I see.”

Seeing Minwoo still not taking his eyes off her, Agnes felt uncomfortable but also puzzled.

‘What is it, this guy? Are you fearless… Or do you believe in your background?’

Agnes also knew the rumors about transfer students. This is the first time I’ve seen him face to face like this, but I’ve seen him in the main auditorium.

Although he was a recommender of His Majesty the Emperor, he was a man with a faint impression. He feels neither ambitious nor charismatic. Of course, since the Imperial Magic School is basically a place to cultivate magical knowledge and basic skills as nobles rather than physical training, it would be wrong to hold all students to the same standards as Agnes, the daughter of the Imperial Knight Commander.〈 Br〉

But even taking that fact into account, the man in front of me had an unpleasant side to him. Is it because his eyes are obscured by his long bangs his? Or…

“Hey, transfer student.”

“..I would appreciate it if you could call me by the name Minwoo if possible. Vice President, senior Agnes.”

“I don’t really care about things like names.”

“Anes..!”

When Agnes aimed the tip of the wooden sword she held in her hand at Minwoo’s chin, Lucia stood between the two.

Lucia knew of Agnes’ fiery temper her her her her. Although her gender was only that of a woman, it was Agnes who had a more fierce and combative disposition than most men. There were also rumors that the reason she entered the Imperial Magic School instead of joining the Knights right away was because her parents wanted to kill off even a little of her bold personality.

I don’t know if the rumor is true or not, but if it is true, it seemed to Lucia that her intention was having no effect at all. Agnes ‘nature her her her her was not the one that could be easily killed. However, after she joined the student council, she was able to relieve that temper to some extent by taking on the role of a disciplinary committee member who corrects school etiquette.

But at this moment, Lucia was grateful for Agnes’s nature.

‘Don’t blame me, transfer student.’

Even though she was a recommender of His Majesty the Emperor, Lucia could not forgive her for touching her own pride. Even though Min-woo’s actions towards him were legitimate actions consistent with the activities of the Ministry of Health, the fact that he was embarrassed by a man who was outside his family and he did not disappear.

This was Lucia’s small revenge on him.

She expected that if the Agnes she knew encountered this transfer student, there would most likely be friction.

“Calm down, Agnes. He’s just a transfer student who just started school today.”

Lucia stood between Agnes and Minwoo as if she was trying to prevent a disturbance, but that was just her acting. Lucia turned her back to Minwoo and sent a light sign to Agnes.

Agnes drew a faint smile at the corner of her mouth at the sign, which meant to lightly embarrass her.

Agnes answered.

“I don’t plan on doing anything in particular. I just want to say hello to the transfer students.”

“…”

Minwoo just stood there blankly, quietly watching the two people’s actions. No matter how much he was Minwoo, he had no ability to read the inner thoughts of people who were not under hypnosis. He had no desire to enjoy such comfortable entertainment.

‘It seems like they’re planning something… But it’s interesting, so let’s take a look.’

Agnes put away her wooden sword and approached Minwoo and held out her hand.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Agnes, I am the vice president of the student council and I am a special engineer student.”

“..I’m Minwoo.”

Minwoo and Agnes lightly shook hands.

“I heard that you were admitted through the recommendation of His Majesty the Emperor. May I ask what your relationship is with His Majesty?”

One of Agnes’s characteristics was that she spoke bluntly and without tact. Lucia was using her appropriately.

Minwoo answered.

“It’s not that great of a relationship. We just had a little connection.”

“I see.”

Ambiguous answer. Agnes glanced back at Lucia. Lucia nodded her head slightly.

“Well, there is nothing more meaningless than looking into the background here at the Imperial Magic School.”

“…”

What are you trying to say? Minwoo quietly waited for what Agnes said.

“I’ve already come this far, so it wouldn’t be polite to just let him go. How about a friendly sparring with me?”

“Sparring..?”

“Follow me.”

Before I knew it, the eyes of all the students in the training center were focused in this direction. As if Agnes was already familiar with it, she guided Minwoo to a large open space within the training center.

“Have you ever held a sword?”

“No. Not at all.”

“Then it’s the magic side. Well, it doesn’t matter either way.”

Many students naturally formed a circle and created an open space. Agnes stood on one side and aimed a wooden sword at Minwoo.

“It’s called sparring, but it’s nothing special. It’s a light club activity experience.”

“Is that so?”

Funny enough, it seemed like he was being treated by Agnes the same way he had just done to Lucia. Lucia must have realized that too, raising the corners of her mouth as she looked at Minwoo.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a sword or magic. Just attack. I’ll give up on attacking first. I’ll do it gently, so don’t worry about getting hurt.”

“Haha… This is… A young lady who has a knack for making people get into trouble.”

It was only then that Minwoo realized what these cute girls were up to. From the first day, he planned to humiliate himself in public. That person is a special knight with skills that wouldn’t be surprising if he were ordained a knight right away. This is a normal person who doesn’t know how to use swords, magic, or anything else. Of course, they seemed to have taken my statement that I had never held a sword to mean that I had magical skills, but…

‘Well, it wouldn’t be polite to not respond to something like that.’

Minwoo decided to match their rhythm.

“That… Is a unique item.”

As Minwoo took out the light stick from his pocket, Agnes’ eyes narrowed. An object of a type I have never seen before. Not only Agnes but other students around her also started whispering among themselves, wondering what that was.

“It’s not that big of a deal. It’s just an ordinary magic wand.”

“..It doesn’t matter. Go for it.”

Agnes took a stance. She was not the kind of woman who would let down her guard just because her newbie partner was the one. Clearly, the man in front of her did not feel anything like the aura of a strong man, but Agnes adjusted her wooden sword, thinking of just one case.

“But… Are you sure you’re okay?”

“..What do you mean?”

“You’re sparring with me. I’m sure you’ll regret it a little later.”

“Regret?”

Agnes snorted at Minwoo’s sudden, brazen remarks. He thought that now that he was scared, he was just plotting to turn a blind eye.

“There is no such thing as regrets. No, even if I regret it, I will do it. It’s not something you should worry about.”

“Indeed… I see.”

If you say it that way… Minwoo shrugged his shoulders, saying there was nothing he could do.

“You’re giving up the go-ahead shot. So, in return for your consideration, I’ll give you a hint.”

The corners of Minwoo’s mouth rose.
