Chapter 37 – Ranking of Class Representatives
The next morning.
“Hello hello! Did everyone sleep well? How was the dorm? Wasn’t it better compared to when I was at home? Envy! Even professors can’t get such a spacious accommodation! … Is there any difference since you get a lab instead? Ahaha!”
It’s the first class, but Professor Lee Ona appeared jumping up and down as if she wasn’t drowsy.
Her actions are childlike, but her body is not young at all, so her breasts that sway freely whenever she moves are impressive.
In fact, some male students in Class A were focusing their eyes on Professor Iona, as if possessed by something.
Just because he looks so frivolous doesn’t mean he’s someone who can be looked at lightly.
Iona, she is a vampire as close as possible to Lord class, and she is an obvious monster who has participated in the War of the Gods 300 years ago.
Even her subject is ‘combat magic’.
Who would look down on Iona like that?
“Today is today! As I said yesterday, we’re going to have a sparring with class representatives and a skill test! I’ll cast a protection spell myself, so you don’t have to worry about getting hurt! Even if there’s a problem, there’s a priest waiting in the infirmary, so as long as you don’t die, it’ll be alright! Yes!”
Iona makes a scary sound with a bright smile.
Well, it really shouldn’t hurt that much. In the first place, with her freshman skills, she wouldn’t be able to break through Iona’s protection magic.
“Okay then everyone follow me! Follow! It’s something freshmen can’t use, but she’s borrowed a sparring ground in my name!”
Just like when Iona came in, she jumped and jumped out of the classroom.
Far from being asked questions, as soon as she came in, she just said what she had to say and left by the time everyone was putting on a dumbfounded expression.
Peek.
With only her face sticking out through the crack in the door, Iona urged us on.
“Come fast! Are there other professors’ classes besides mine today? If you hesitate, you will be late from the first day! That’s not trouble yes! You will be in trouble!”
Then Iona disappears again.
Glancing through the window, she is alone in her hallway, rubbing her toes on her floor.
When her eyes met, she even gestured as if to come here.
That kind of person is one of the strongest in the academy… ?
Seeing it in person, not through the monitor, is a bit surprising.
When I get up from my seat with a big smile, the other students who have only noticed each other start to stand up one by one.
The servants also followed us.
“Are you all here? This year’s freshman listens well! It’s wonderful! These are amazing pips! Then I’ll start right away!”
Iona smiles and walks in the lead.
In this way, a strange formation was completed, with Iona leading the way, followed by the class A students, and the attendants chasing after us.
It took a while for me to giggle at the thought of being like a family of ducks crossing the road in a row.
“You.”
Elisha, who must have been a bit far away, approached me before I knew it and asked quietly.
“What is it, Miss Glenciel?”
“Huh! Did I tell you yesterday? I won’t forget my work at the restaurant.”
“Ah.”
Come to think of it, it was discovered that Karla cleverly fucked Elisha.
“Be prepared. This sparring will make you feel the gap between you and me.”
Yesterday, and now, too. He keeps saying lines like a third-class villain.
Maybe that’s why it was a little playful.
“Yes? I beg your pardon? You’re going to use this sparring as an excuse to completely crush me?! Why! I just did what Glenciel-sama told me to do…… Yep!”
When I shouted that out loud, Elisha covered my mouth in fright.
Do elves have a lower body temperature than humans? Or is it just that Elisha’s hands are cold?
A slight coolness rises from the soft palms that cover her lips and the area around them, making her feel a little better.
Although her Elisha’s face turned red, contrary to her own body temperature.
Elisha hurriedly spread the silence magic centering on herself.
As if he was worried about the range, he whispered in a desperate voice while holding me a little closer.
“Shh! Shh! Are you crazy?! Why do you keep slandering me, Yandel!”
“Uhhh… Churup.”
“Hey!”
Elisha patted her palm lightly and removed her hand in surprise.
Wiping her own saliva-stained hands with her handkerchief she pulled out from somewhere, she shrugged her shoulders at Elisha, who was glaring at her.
“No harm. It’s all true.”
The words that Elisha will thoroughly beat me in this tournament, and that it was because of Elisha that she went around yesterday, making Karla look like a slave.
You didn’t make up words without me.
Elisha also nodded her head bewildered as she thought so.
“That… Yes. It doesn’t. But what more… I guess it’s a way to say… Something like that… What? Maybe me… Did Yandel’s eyes look like this… ? Maybe it was because of the difference in social status….”
The more she talked to herself, the more confused a look appeared on Elisha’s face.
Elisha shook her head with a pale expression.
“Oh no! I’m not such a mean woman?! What I just did is just… Ugh!”
Elisha is very sorry but can’t bring herself to speak.
Believing what she had seen at H&A and what Carla had told her that she wasn’t a bad girl, she decided to take it one step further.
“I’m kidding, Mr. Glenciel. I didn’t know at first, but after talking yesterday, that misunderstanding was resolved.”
“… Why are you kidding me like that?”
“Yeah….”
Because it’s fun. I can’t say that. Anyway, this is a bit harsh.
So, so that she wouldn’t take it as an insult, she thought she was shaking the plate and put a steel plate over her face.
“I want to get close to Glenciel-sama.”
“What?!”
“After talking to him a few times, he seemed like a much better person than I thought. Doesn’t Glenciel-sama also take good care of me and keep talking to me?”
Elisha trembled as if this was unexpected.
But it wasn’t long before she regained her sanity, and with a ferocious expression on her face, Chuck! And pointed his index finger.
“You! Do your best in Dalian! I will too! I just wanted to say this, so don’t get me wrong!”
Then, Elisha gets mixed up in the ranks and gets farther away.
After staring at it for a while, she suddenly met her eyes with Karla, who was snooping this way from behind her.
“…… !”
For some reason, he was trembling as he looked at me and Elisha alternately.
Oh Is it because of the silence?
I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I’ll have to tell you later that it wasn’t a big deal.
***
The training ground I arrived at was much wider than I thought.
There are even spectator seats surrounding it, so it is wide enough to remind you of a soccer field.
From flat floor tiles to walls. Judging by the unknown characters engraved on it, it must be some kind of magic.
Professor Iona, who was standing in the center of this large arena, pointed to the corner and said.
“Ruler! The servants are over there in the corner! In case the aftermath of the sparring strikes, there should be no one else to play with. That’s why it’s easier for me to protect you!”
At those words, the attendants bowed their heads respectfully and headed in the direction Iona pointed.
On top of the sparring ground, only students were male, and only then did Iona begin to explain the rules related to the sparring.
“There is not enough time for one-on-one sparring! Not enough! So let’s all fight together! The rules are simple! This moment right now. All you have to do is use all the methods you have to neutralize everyone except yourself!”
At that, one of the students who looked at each other for a moment quietly raised his hand.
“Me, Professor?”
“Yes? Question? What? What are you curious about? Tell Professor Iona anything!”
“I left my staff with the servant, can I come and pick them up?”
She tilted her head for a moment at the unknown student’s question, and then started laughing as if she had heard a very interesting story.
“Ahaha! You should always carry your weapon!”
Haha… Sorry. From now on, I will remember to carry it with me. Then….”
The student who laughed awkwardly with her turned her head to the attendant.
“No.”
“… Yes?”
Iona suddenly looks serious.
“Did you tell me? You have to fight with what you have now. I informed you yesterday that there will be sparring. But isn’t it my fault that I didn’t take care of the equipment properly?”
“…….”
That student was also assigned to class A, so his ability must be excellent. According to the contents of the entrance exam, he must fight well.
However, it is Professor Lee Ona’s class, which prefers sparring that is closer to actual combat in an academy that is still combat-oriented.
Even though I was notified of the fact of sparring in advance, there was no way they would tolerate a person who did not carry a weapon.
Watching the student harden after realizing the meaning, Iona returned to her usual bright voice.
“What! I’ll have to do something with my bare hands this time! Don’t worry too much! It’s not like entering a dungeon with bare hands, is it? It just deducts some points! Anyway, what about the others? Do you have any questions?”
Other students silently take out their wands and staffs from the subspace or from their waists.
I also took out the staff I bought for Carla from my inventory. I need to write this as soon as possible.
Only one person is bare-handed.
“Looks like there are no other questions! Did you understand something?”
After Iona said that, she waved her hand in the air several times, and a huge amount of mana spurted out and wrapped around us.
This is probably the protection magic I was talking about at the beginning.
Iona, who had cast a protective spell on each one, declared the start of the match with a smile, wondering what was so fun about it.
“Then let’s kill each other from now on… Fight!”
… Didn’t I just tell you to kill me?
Even though he was dumbfounded, he gathered her mana and focused it on the staff.
Ugh-
However, instead of creating it with magic, he exploded it as it was.
Towards the only bare-handed guy.
Kwaaaaang!!
Cut one at a time!
