I sat on the sofa in the Melgard Class lounge and waited for Lerisha to come. The musty smell of sweat emanated from the rest room, and there were exercise equipment scattered here and there, giving it the feeling that it was a rest room used by unmanned people.
Let’s open the windows for ventilation. She sees Lerisha approaching from a distance. Arriving in front of her break room, she takes out a mirror from her bosom and touches her hair.
“The Princess?”
“Ah, ah! That, that’s why her hair is a little weird.”
“Is that so? Then I want to talk soon.”
“Yes! I will go in now.”
Lerisha is nervous. Other students may misunderstand me when they see this, so I hope that they will treat me a little more naturally when they see me.
As I was waiting with that thought in mind, Lerisha, dressed in a neat school uniform, approached me. She unties her sword from her waistband and sits down.
“Woros. That… I’m here.”
“Yes. Like I said. I came here because of that. I got a call from A1 I met in a toy factory.”
“Have you discovered Arisha-sama’s magic?”
Lerisha asked with a nervous expression on her face. I nod her head and she gasps. If she does something wrong, she knows that Arisha’s weapon, which is dangerous to the wicked, will pass over her, so how can she not be nervous?
Her sense of justice to protect the Meloyer Empire. And it will sound all the more serious because of her princess position. I am the old tree that Arisha made for her world tree. Arisha’s magical power was sealed in that old tree. I even confessed that an alter ego of the old tree connected by roots was growing in my greenhouse.
“For that reason. This could be an opportunity. If it is connected by the roots, then I can absorb the mana after dealing with the old tree growing in my greenhouse.”
“The story you just told. Is it true that the work of the greenhouse can be interfered with through the roots if not taken care of quickly?”
“It is not an impossible story. No. If it were me, I would have done that. Arisha’s legacy is now being targeted. If the legacy of Shayza leaks out, there really is no answer.”
When I say that, Lerry Shah swallows her saliva and nods her head.
“The decision is tonight. I will try to prepare before then.”
“If you are ready, I will help.”
“No. This is the exam period, and there is no need for the princess to skip lectures because of me.”
“Even if I take a day off from studying anyway, Melgard’s first place won’t change. Actually, I had a little romance.”
I was puzzled by the word romance. Then, Lerisha made a shy expression that she didn’t usually show.
“That… Missing the lecture… Like a normal student. I wanted to try it once. I haven’t been able to until now because I didn’t have the opportunity.”
“… Is that so?”
“Yes… therefore. Will you take me too? I won’t disturb you.”
Lerisha said that while blinking her eyes. In fact, there’s nothing wrong with her coming along. Only because of this is she worried that it would become her nuisance to her.
“I will ask you one last time. Do you really mind if you spend the day with me?”
“Sure! I’ll take care of the schedule, so don’t worry.”
“Then, let me ask you one thing. Please don’t spread rumors that Princess Lelisha became a delinquent student because of me.”
Lerisha hesitates at my request. Then he nodded her head.
“Okay. Then give me an hour.”
“Okay. Then we’ll meet in an hour. We will meet in front of the Shaiza stone statue in District 6.”
“Okay.”
“It can be a bit risky. Please pay attention to your attire.”
At my words, Lerisha nodded her head. So we scattered to prepare each other. I also did not forget to tell them to hurry up because there is not enough time.

While Lerisha was preparing, I looked for Saint Eldenia. She told her that, without telling her about the toy factory, she said tonight, she was clearing the Zone 2 trees. I didn’t tell you about the toy factory because someone might hear it.
“Okay. Then I’ll prepare it that way.”
“Thank you. She would have been at a loss if the saint had refused.”
“Rejection. It doesn’t even matter. I am a virgin I go wherever my help is needed.”
Eldenia, be conscious of the surroundings. Unlike usual, she talks like that with a gentle and benevolent expression like a real saint. Come to think of it, this woman was a real saint.
Like that, the lecture started and all the students in the hallway went into the classroom. El Denia lets out a puah and sighs deeply. Her shoulders drooped, like slime.
When people around me disappeared, I returned to the sunny expression I used to show when I was with me. When she put on a benevolent expression, she felt the weight of a saint, but because she smiled with a light expression, she was definitely a teenage girl.
“It was hard to keep my expression.”
“You are having a hard time.”
“By the way, senior! Are you finally removing the tree?”
“That’s it.”
Eldenia was delighted as she clenched her fists. That’s right, El Denia had said that she looked at the 2 Greenhouse trees and that she was unlucky. In fact, tree people who live in trees also use dark attribute magic. Perhaps Eldenia instinctively recognized that part.
Above all, her greed for her quest in Eldenia is endless, enough to give her the title of a saint who seeks. Her enthusiasm was so great that she inspected all the plants in the first greenhouse.
Because she is like that, she will be waiting for me to advance into the 2nd greenhouse. 2If you enter the greenhouse, you can get new plants.
“Then, senior! I am like that… “
Eldenia clasps her hands, she talks briskly, then she stops her words abruptly. Because someone came out in the hallway. Then, she holds her own hands together as it is.
“We should prepare as it is. You don’t need to worry too much. Goddess Rosacia will watch over Woros Blood-senpai.”
“… Thank you.”
“Yes. Then I will go away.”
After saying that, Eldenia headed to the lecture room. She looks back at me and puts on a resentful expression. She wanted to talk to me a little more, but the reason must be that there are so many eyes around her that she has no choice but to wear her saintly face.
If it were Eldenia’s original personality, she would have shown a lively appearance without caring about the opinions of others, but it seems that the story came out of the Rosasia Church in the academy grounds.
If it was El Denia’s authority, she could ignore everything and do whatever she wanted, but she was kind-hearted and partially accepted the opinions of her church.
At least in front of the students, she decided to maintain her dignity that her saint should have. It’s because the people of her church are too rigid, and she lives like a schoolgirl of the same age as Eldenia, so no one will ever discredit her Eldenia.
That’s right, rumors have already spread and all students know about it. Rumors about Eldenia’s tremendous divine power. Although it is my opinion, it would be better for the image of the church to show a friendly side to her classmates as a saint who is hard to see her face in her lifetime, but it is a pity.
I hope this doesn’t stress Eldenia.
Anyway, I gave my opinion to Eldenia. She decided to head to the meeting place. That’s how she sat in front of the stone statue of Shayza and waited for Leri Shah. After about 20 minutes. Lerisha came with a blonde woman she had never seen before.
“Welcome. Who is that?”
“Yes. Please introduce yourself to Woros.”
“Yes. Hello. My name is Larisha von Meloyer.”
That’s how the blonde woman Larisha brought introduced herself. When I look at Lerisha with a puzzled expression, she smiles mischievously.
“Actually, this is my new Guardian Knight after Federik was fired.”
“I see. Hello.”
“Yes. Hello. I hope you will be kind enough to understand that I cannot tell you my real name due to regulations.”
Lerisha’s new guardian knight said so.
“So. Princess Lelisha, what is this?”
“Woros, you told me this earlier. I hate misunderstandings because of me.”
“Yes.”
“This is a contingency plan for that case.”
With Lerry Sha saying that, she took off the blue Melguard cloak she was wearing and handed it to her guardian knight. Then, hearing her own great tricks, he puts her hands on her hips and sticks out her breasts, as if telling her to prepare for her surprise.
“Today. My guardian knight will live the life of Larisha von Meloyer instead of me.”
“…… “
“Go, she said she had a cold. Cover her mouth and no one will know about her.”
“…… “
Certainly, if you cover her face, you won’t be able to tell the difference between Lerisha and her. However, if a professor or someone close to her sees it, she will notice it at once. Isn’t it different from the voice in the first place?
It couldn’t have been a plan that was too full of holes to be said to have come from Larisha’s head. Let’s ask her why the hell she came up with such a plan. Larisha replied:
“That… I read it in a novel. Swap… I also wanted to give it a try. If you get caught, I’ll take care of the aftermath.”
He said carefully. He said he would take care of it so that I wouldn’t be harmed, so I had no choice but to nod.
