Even though it was only a fleeting moment, he is an unforgettable figure in life. For me, that person was Delt..
A person who celebrated perfection even in a remote village by mobilizing as many as two drakes, a drake pilot, and four people who reached the level of knights to kidnap Ragnis..
Even though he forced me to skydive without a parachute...just because he left me struggling on the brink of death doesn't take away my amazement about him..
Because he was the one who originally gave another meaning to cutting off someone's head in order to end it painlessly..
Even now, looking back on Delt's eyes as he accepts a blow that he can never avoid or block, there is an inexplicable chill..
1Those eyes, which understood everything in less than a second and eventually accepted it with understanding rather than resignation, had the power to make you respect them even though they were your enemies. What on earth was he doing? Why did he work on the other side of Ragnis? Many questions followed, but there was no way to solve them, so I just left them alone..
That incident was an opportunity that made me blindly believe in the superiority of surprise, and at the same time taught me a lesson that I should not let down my guard..
Why am I suddenly rummaging through my memories??
As I sat alone in a cafe and reminisced about this and that, something suddenly came out. As a result, I became involved with the guys called Gwilv and Rag, who had been fighting since the morning, and I ended up wondering what the difference was between the strong in this world..
Since I started dealing with magical powers, I have been living without any major problems. Of course, it was close for the first time in a while while fighting with demons a few days ago, but... fortunately, it was a fight within the castle. This means that it was not a threatening situation where death came and went every time you swung the sword..
In the end, the only time I encountered a truly unexpected situation was during the double trap prepared by Delt..
I say I'm having a very smooth life right now, but in the end, the day of adventure to kill the destroyer of my hometown is coming, whether it's invading the demon territory or whatever. Since there was no guarantee that it would be the same back then, I honestly had a desire to meet someone who was overwhelmingly stronger than me in the safest possible situation and to know my current situation in detail..
But that seems to be the most difficult thing to solve.
I think it would be helpful if I had a chance to compete with Lord Ekaf or Radnellbandes, but they are all so busy that I don't dare try to compete with them. Even the knights of the Ogatorf family, who are said to be a bit more agile, were not leisurely enough to spar one-on-one, so my desire remained unresolved until now..
"It's my palja..."
As I glanced out the window, I could clearly see enthusiasts snooping around waiting for me to come out of the cafe..
No, don't they have any classes? A student's job is to teach, not to stalk idols..
Left alone as Ragnis took additional magic classes, I went to the cafe recommended to me when I first came to the academy and had coffee and dessert..
It wasn't because I specifically wanted to eat this. I was able to pick up from Zeke that in the Empire, if you don't even read a book or newspaper when drinking tea alone, you leave it alone because it is thought that you have something to think about, and I just happened to need to get away from my crazy followers. It just happened..
At that time, the store door opened and an unidentified white-haired girl immediately walked towards me with a very confident gait..
You couldn't tell that he was a noble just by looking at his gait, but since this is an academy anyway, nobles are common..
There was nothing particularly surprising about the white hair or the pure white skin, which seemed so transparent that it seemed like someone suffering from albinism. I wonder if the golden eyes give off an atmosphere full of middle school students... but there are many more unusual things in this world. Even in my past life, there were a lot of amber-colored eyes depending on the pigment, so there's nothing surprising about this. It's a bit surprising that it shines so beautifully..
And it's not uncommon for all of them to come together to form a cute little doll-like appearance, but there's nothing surprising about this either. I am a man who has lived with an elf for over 5 years. I am confident that I will not be surprised by her considerable beauty..
The problem was that gaze. As soon as I first entered the store, he saw me and looked at me. As soon as I saw him, my instinct started ringing a small alarm..
Extremely calculating eyes that analyze people down to their bones. On the outside, he looks no older than 12 years old, but those are definitely not eyes a child could have. Even if he can't, he's only growing a little slower, but he's probably older than his appearance, and it's clear that he's in a position to deal with people..
After deciding to that point, I calmly asked the girl who was still approaching me while making direct eye contact..
"Would you like some cake??"
"Ugh, uhh?"
"I think he came up to me because he had something to tell me, but I don't like eating and drinking alone. Or would you like a drink??"
"Is that so? Well... then drinks and cake..."
what? As he hesitated, it felt as if all the attention from before had disappeared. Am I mistaken? Am I just a girl??
She was in a bit of an unpredictable state, but since an ordinary girl might feel intimidated by me, I used the experience of a butler I had learned from the Ogatorp family to escort her..
The height difference alone is close to 50. A child can feel threatened simply by facing someone bigger than him. I didn't want to be remembered as a bastard who came all the way overseas and made a young noble girl cry..
Therefore, I stood up from my seat in the most friendly manner possible, pulled out a chair for the girl to sit on, helped her sit down, told her the recommended menu before even thinking about the menu, and even selected a tea to go with it. After ordering and returning to her seat, she was very happy. There was a girl looking at me with unexpected eyes..
"Well, you're very good at something.."
Natural bottom. Unique way of speaking. If nothing else, he must be a fairly high-ranking noble. Nevertheless, maintaining a demeanor that does not violate etiquette... hinted at the possibility that his status was truly high, rather than being filled with crazy pride like Gwilv..
"I learned just enough to not be embarrassed.."
"...Do you know who Yeo is??"
"no. I'm sorry, but it's my first time meeting you and I'm not very social, so I have no idea.."
However, I do know that it is seriously cute to have a natural speaking tone that only an elderly person would use. Is that how your grandfather speaks? From my memories of my past life, I think a royal or dragon-like being in a novel referred to itself as female, but there's no way there's a dragon roaming around in the middle of the empire... Esselua, who is a royal, had blonde hair, so she wouldn't be a royal either. That's right.
Well, they may be a bit high-ranking nobles, but as long as they're not royalty and dragons, everything will work out.!
"Well, I see. Are you treating me like this even though I don't know who you are?."
"I'm not born into a noble family, but I'm not someone who hasn't learned basic etiquette.."
"hmm. Birth is not important. Even in the empire right now, there are people all over the world who are worse than butchers disguised as nobles. Human nature is not tied to such things.."
It's so cute that you say the right thing about being small without even chewing your tongue! The future of the empire is brighter than you think? I almost want to show it to Zeke. It was so special that I decided to give it a little lip service..
"You have wisdom. Are you truly a noble of an empire where there is an academy that encompasses both commoners and nobles?."
"hmm...? How did you know? Didn't she say she didn't know??"
"That's because he wasn't wearing a school uniform, so he wasn't a student. If he was an envoy coming to meet a hero, an attendant would have been with him all the way here. Above all... the students who were watching me outside disappeared as soon as they saw the young lady.."
The girl who was giving me a suspicious look opened her eyes so cutely, looked at me and out the window a couple of times and burst into laughter..
To be honest, the students were almost scared and had disappeared as if running away, so I was starting to get a little scared as to who this guy was, but I didn't show it..
"this! I didn't even think about it that far. By the way, I heard it's only been 3 days since you came to the academy. Have you already gained followers??"
"It's just that there are a few people who give a little too much evaluation even though their ability to teach others is not good enough.."
"Haha. ‘The ability to teach others’! indeed. You have no intention of being humble about your ability to defeat the warrior and kill the young lion of Rudra.!"
I was confident with a faint smile as I saw the girl accurately grasping my intention without making any mistakes..
I don't know anything else, but it's not an easy feat..
Judging from the trembling reaction of the waiter who served the cake and tea, she must be the daughter of a family with considerable power. Now, I didn't want to ask out loud who it was, but seeing the way his eyes sparkled as soon as I saw the cake, I decided to just enjoy it as if I was looking at my cute little brother..
"Do you know anything? It is said that sweet foods are very helpful when using your brain. They say it's quite helpful not only in getting rid of anger but also in clearing your thoughts.."
Did you say that glucose is like fuel for the brain? It was knowledge I had picked up at least once in my past life, but I couldn't say it here, so I smiled slightly and answered appropriately..
"I had no idea. Still, it seems to be true, since I always crave sweets when I have a lot to think about.."
"Indeed, so it is. Even if you're busy with work, it's a big deal to find a cake after an hour has passed.."
I haven't eaten yet today, so I'm glad I don't have to worry! I was a little worried about whether the cake would suit the taste of the girl who eagerly ate the cake, but seeing how satisfied she was, it seemed like she didn't have a very picky taste..
To be honest, I expected her to eat a lot while munching like a hamster, but the girl cut the cake little by little and ate it, observing old-fashioned dining etiquette..
It's a pity... so a pity!
