Chapter 37
‘Oh, I’m really tired.’
I got on the wheelbarrow to the dormitory.
It was an eventful day.
[See you tomorrow, Theo~]
Before parting, I remember Sienna’s meaningful words.
‘How are we going to see you?’
Classes will be closed until today’s case is settled.
Of course, during the hiatus, Chief Professor Locke encouraged students to attend lectures from other faculties.
The reason is that there will be lessons to be learned from lectures in other faculties.
However, this is only a recommendation, not a compulsion.
Even in this work, most students do not observe lectures from other departments.
This is because of the unique sense of choice that students of the Faculty of Warriors have.
But tomorrow, I plan to attend a lecture in the Knights Faculty.
Aside from the Faculty of Heroes, Elinia Academy has many faculties, such as the Faculty of Knights and the Faculty of Magic, as well as the Faculty of Alchemy, the Faculty of Exploration and the Faculty of Management.
‘But, for me, the Knights Department is the best.’
It will help you manage your reputation, and you will be able to see the skills of other undergraduate students.
It is a business that remains unconditionally.
It’s more productive than messing around in bed.
And tomorrow there is a food club meeting.
[Sub Quest: Join two or more clubs, then continue to work.]
Reward: 2 Shop Gold Coins
You cannot give up even for compensation.
You will receive 2 ‘minimum’ shop gold coins.

For reputation management purposes, there must be a reason why there were three clubs, which were enough for two.
Why?
The quest fingerprint of this work is a loss if you read it in vain.
The suggested condition is to join two ‘or more’ clubs.
If you join and participate in three clubs, you will receive additional rewards unconditionally.

For example, let’s say you have a quest to catch 100 or more Cockatrices, and you’ve caught 200.
Compensation in such cases is not twice as stated.
More than that.
If you inherited the system as it is, you will receive 3 or more shop gold coins as a reward.
‘I don’t know what it means to be active even if I think about it many times.’
Well, even if you attend every meeting, you will pass the basic requirements.
While thinking about various things, I arrived at the dormitory.
I went straight up the stairs.
“Welcome, Master. You came early today.”
Amy greeted me as usual.
“Yes, I have a small incident. May I ask you for dinner?”
“Of course, Master. Leave it to me.”
Amy laughed softly.
I’ve only seen hard faces every time, but these days, their expressions seem to have changed quite a bit.
After that, I try to enter the room,
“… Master, is this a minor incident right?”
Amy’s expression hardened in an instant.
“During the practical evaluation, I just encountered a swarm of monsters in the magic dungeon. There were no deaths. What, is there anything strange?”
“···No. I’m sorry for asking a question. You must be tired, so please rest.”
“Okay, okay. Bring dinner into the room as before.”
I tried to ask why, but Amy’s expression was so serious that she hesitated to ask.
‘But what? It’s embarrassing.’
What was moved from the magic dungeon?
profit-
When I entered the room, I used First Aid and Nullify Magic on my body.

‘Theo no, that one hovering near the master… is definitely a spirit.’
Amy sat down at her desk, thinking deeply.
She had high spirit-friendliness, so she was able to feel what kind of spirit she was.
Even in the hallway, when I entered the room bringing food, the spirit was visible.
Spirits sometimes stick to humans, but considering that they have never seen it before, it is artificial.
It is clear that the spirit magician is aiming for the master.
‘Looking at the energy, it was the spirit of the wind.’
Then who the hell?
There are a few people who come to mind.
Even so, there are very few spiritists even in this Elinia Academy, where only the best gemstones from the continent are gathered.
I can count it on one hand.
Elementalists are as rare as unicorns and bicorns.
‘Are you the Wood Elf Princess of the Great Forest?’
The first thing that comes to mind is Sienna.
Even she is a freshman in the same college as the master, so the probability of being the culprit is extremely high.
‘Are you aiming for the master in the great forest?’
The Great Forest, where the elves live, is the ruler of the extraterrestrial world.
However, it is a huge force that cannot be ignored even in Equilibrium.
As the name suggests, the great forest of elves that have lived for more than 1000 years is surrounded by only forests and trees.
That said, there isn’t much to enjoy.
Because of that, most elves spend a lot of time training themselves.
Because of that, elf warriors are monsters one by one.
There is also a recent case where an executive from Dan, who had a conflict with an elf warrior, disappeared.
‘I didn’t know I’d be contacted so quickly.’
Amy grabbed a pen and started writing a letter to Dan.

The next day, Thursday morning.
Irene waited for the school shuttle at the station.
‘Isn’t it great…?’
I’m familiar with the incident that happened yesterday at the Brave School.
The magic dungeon was malfunctioning.
The Heroes’ Faculty announced that, but rumors say that an external blasphemous force intervened.
There were no fatalities, I’m really glad.
‘Aren’t you seriously injured? Even healers can’t fix old injuries.’
Irene’s heart rotted.
‘Until the case was settled, the Braves Faculty said the entire school was closed.’
I’d rather be happy
…Irene was a bit annoyed.
Still, even though his name is his fiancée, wouldn’t he be able to show his face if he’s safe?
make me worry
‘I heard that in the northern magic city, they sell crystal balls that you can contact even from afar…’
Looks like I’ll have to make that one too.
I heard that the contact crystal ball is a very expensive item.
But sooner or later there is a chance.
It is the third prize in the martial arts competition held at the Academy Festival held after the midterm exam.
Considering the fairness, students of the Faculty of Warriors are only eligible to participate, so only first-year students who are ranked 100th or lower are likely to take a look.
While Irene is spreading her imagination,
Chi profit-.
The circular wagon stopped at the station.
Come to think of it, I had never seen Theo in the fortress circle wagon.
‘Of course not.’
In a way, it was a window of steady meeting between himself and Theo.
It hasn’t been that long, but it feels like a long time ago.
So Irene followed the students and got on the wheelbarrow.
“!”
Right diagonal back seat.
Every time I got on the circular wagon, the first place I looked at.
There was Theo looking out the window with a calm gaze.
Irene rushed over and sat down next to Theo.
…but what should I say?
Once I sat down as my body went, I couldn’t open my mouth.
Have you been hurt anywhere?
If your name is your fiancée, shouldn’t you show your face to your fiancée who might be worried?
Or, as he said before… miss you?
Mina said it’s good to say kind words to the lover she’s not seen in a long time…
“What is it, you. How is your body?”
In the end, the words that came out were somewhat muffled.
Perhaps in deep thought, Theo looked out the window and looked at Irene a beat later.
“It’s okay. Thank you for your concern, Irene.”
“Then I’m glad…”
“By the way, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you in the circular carriage.”
“That’s right.”
Irene replied with a smirk.
After that, she had a stiff hobo-style conversation with Theo.
But it was just as good.
10 minutes felt like 1 minute.
Time goes by quickly.
[This stop is in front of the Knights Faculty. As a reminder, this stop is in front of the Faculty of Knights. When you get off, be sure to bring your belongings and get off.]
All of a sudden, the circular carriage stopped at the Knights Faculty.
‘ah. Stupid idiot.’
Irene cursed herself.
He didn’t ask Theo where he was going to get on the circular wagon.
However, asking at the right time is hurting my pride.
‘By the way, I heard that the lectures of the Braves Department were replaced by observations from other departments.’
Of course, I know it’s not compulsory.
At that moment, a guess popped into Irene’s head.
If so, is it possible that you are coming to the Knights Faculty?
But that’s unlikely.
I have never seen a student in the Department of Heroes observe a lecture.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
All of a sudden, the students begin to rush down from the roundabout.
I’m sorry, but it’s time to part.
“Then… see you later, Theo. I’ll go.”
Saying goodbye like that, when Irene got off the wheelbarrow.
Again, again.
Theo got off.
“uh?”
Irene looked at Theo with question marks in her eyes.
“I’m also going to attend a lecture in the Knights Faculty today, if it’s okay with you, let’s go together.”
“Uh, uh, uh…”
Irene could not spit out the correct sentence in an unexpected situation.
Theo looked a little gloomy.
“…Is it possible that I’m still embarrassed?”
“Oh, ah, no! No. Let’s go together!”
Belatedly, Irene smiled softly.
