chapter 24
24 – New Students
“What is this…?”
I don’t know if I’ve really put my mind at ease lately. The peace that has continued since I left Astria, the comfort in my heart, and the people who listen to me.
Maybe that was the problem.
I was a member of a party that grew at an extremely fast pace during the 7 years I was an adventurer and established itself as an S-class party, making a name for myself. Due to the members’ compulsion, I had to stay vigil alone and watch my surroundings without closing my eyes even at night.
In the woods, in the wild, in dangerous places where blizzards roll and flames rise.
I started to get more sensitive. The effect continued even while sleeping. I, who had been holding the sword every day, fell asleep hugging the sword like a habit, and reacting to the slightest human presence, life, glances, and brushing sounds around me, it became impossible to fall into a deep sleep.
So it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that among the Astria party members, I’m the best at feeling the presence.
It was incredibly amazing to have the most outstanding field in a party at a height where everyone was an S-class adventurer, and from the other person’s point of view, it felt like a far-off mountain.
Even after I was assigned to Hestia Academy, that kind of vigilance continued, but the feeling of comfort that I felt more and more and the thought that I didn’t have to be vigilant anymore seemed to have caught me off guard.
“I… Didn’t notice while I was sleeping…?”
The sound of chirping birds coming through the window, the sunlight coming through the window, and the sound of the doors opening of nearby shops informed me that morning had come.
What I saw when I opened my eyes like that.
I could see Hockey lying in my bed and sleeping.
“What the hell…How…”
The embarrassment about this situation didn’t go away, then she started to open her eyes to the problem.
“Um- The warm sunlight… It feels good… Oh my brother, what are you doing here? No matter how much my only sister says I love her, she would still come into my room while I’m sleeping. Yesterday was like that. He said no, so I guess he was embarrassed? If he said he wanted to sleep with me, he would have.”
As soon as I woke up, Haki’s bold words made me feel like I was going to go crazy.
“…”
“If you look at me hotly from the morning like that, even I feel embarrassed.”
, He said more speculatively, then covered his face with both hands and started pretending to be ashamed.
“How… Did you get in…?”
But I couldn’t be offended by Hockey’s impudent words.
To feel the emotion of fear for her sister.
“How did you get in? Surely you didn’t come in through the door?”
“If I had just opened the door and walked in, I wouldn’t have noticed.”
“I’m sure my older brother seems to have been very sensitive. How hard it was to get here, and he seemed like he’d wake up right away at the slightest sign. What on earth did you do during your adventure? But, brother.”
“… Huh?”
“Did I ever tell you that I ‘opened’ the door and came in?”
What?
“Didn’t you say you came in through the door…?”
“I did come in through the door.”
Hockey said with a laugh.
“Actually, this is the method Master taught me to use when the guy I like passes away.”
Then he used magic.
“Ghost”
Hockey, which used to be a human body, has turned into a fluid.
“Aside from transforming into a ghost and disappearing, it’s a useless magic.”
“That… What a great magic… To use it in a place like this?”
When you infiltrate somewhere, you should be able to display the best efficiency in the same place. It will be at least upper middle class.
“It doesn’t mean that it wears out with use.”
“…Besides, the master you speak of taught me to use that kind of magic whenever I find a guy I like?”
“Yes. I’m not sure what that means, but maybe he told me to sleep with him like today?”
I’m guessing it’s to make a fait accompli.
Is it pure in a place like this again?
“Still, it’s not like a grown girl gets into a boy’s bed that way.”
I Bean the Head of Hockey! And took a picture
“But… It’s been a long time since we met again, don’t you think it’s too much? Before my brother left for Hestia Academy, we were together often.”
“They were both young then.”
I sighed at the sight of Haki stroking her hair in pain.
“I’ll see you this time, let’s stop here.”
“Yes, brother.”
“I have to get ready to go to the academy, so go back to your room and get ready to go to school.”
“But brother, why are you wearing that mask? I saw yesterday that the students seem to be calling him Professor Ikeul.”
Ah, come to think of it, I didn’t tell you.
“I’m hiding my identity for some reason.”
“What’s the matter? Does it have anything to do with leaving the party?”
You’re quick-witted.
“That’s right. I’ll spare you the details.”
“Okay, if that’s the case, I’ll call my older brother Professor Ichle in the academy.”
“Okay. Let’s do that.”
“And if that’s the case, do I have to hide that I’m your older brother’s sister?”
“Perhaps that’s the case. I’ll have to tell Kabri.”
“Let me tell you. Just to get to know you.”
“It’s not bad. Okay, you tell me.”
“Yes, older brother. I’ll see you later.”
Haki greeted me, cast his ghost magic once more, and went out the door.
“…Go out a little more normally.”
It’s scary.
++++
“My name is Hockey Gadvi. Thank you very much.”
Clap clap clap clap-
Her applause echoed in her classroom, welcoming her.
“Huh? Hockey!”
Cabri, who was sitting down, recognized Hockey and waved her hand.
“Hello Mr. Kabri.”
Haki also waved her hand to Cabri. Then the girls around her approached Kabri and started talking about her.
I felt like I could understand what they were saying even without using hearing aids.
“Mr. Cabri, who is that?”
“Couldn’t they be lovers?”
“What’s up?”
The same questions. In addition to her already pretty and beautiful looks, her mature behavior and kindness add to it. If you hear that you are close friends with Cabri. I’ll probably get a little jealous.
Hockey, you’re going to have a hard time.
++++
My brother has been really strange lately.
There are a lot of things I’ve been thinking about, and I mumble to myself… Even if there’s something about senior Kabri, I feel like it’s too serious since yesterday.
Ah, now that we’re here, it’s already time for class to start. I see Professor Ikele entering the classroom.
Huh? I see a woman coming in following Professor Ikele. Seeing her in her school uniform, she looks like a Hestia student, but I’ve never seen her before.
“Quiet.”
As I heard Professor Ikele’s voice, the classroom became quiet.
After confirming that the classroom had become quiet, he coughed once and opened his mouth with a “Keuheum”.
“I’m Hockey Gadib who passed the Hestia Academy’s special test and started going to school today.”
“My name is Hockey Gadvi. Thank you very much.”
You passed the special test?
Passing the notoriously famous Hestia Academy’s special test consisting of all practical skills made the students think a lot.
Of course, there are students who don’t.
“What is the special test?”
“I don’t know, isn’t that what idiots who failed the entrance exam do?”
“Keukkeuk! Are you good enough to go here?”
“I don’t think so?”
“Isn’t your face very ugly?”
“No… That’s… Kinda…”
It was a lucky five.
I don’t know why, but I seemed to have forgotten about the first day of class. Still, it doesn’t matter because I only talk with words and don’t do anything.
And it was really funny that even they couldn’t agree with the “Isn’t it ugly?”
I barely managed to hold back my laughter when I saw that, then turned my head to brother Abur.
And there is the face of the butler who fell in love with her maid in the past, the woman who fell in love with the male lead in a shoujo manga, and the face of her brother who was looking at Kabri.
Abur’s expression was the same when he was looking at Mr. Haki, who was not a senior in Cabri, but a woman he had never seen before.
“What the hell is this all about…”
What else happened when I was gone?
As I was thinking, Mr. Haki seemed to have found Abur’s brother, and he shook her hand.
“Ugh!”
And my older brother, who received the greeting directly, collapsed on the desk in that state.
++++
“Ugh!”
Abur, who was greeted by hockey, collapsed on the desk in that state.
She was in that state for a while, but Abur, who quickly regained her senses, tried to get up, but she couldn’t get up.
Because I can feel it.
The eyes of her younger sister Reina staring at him pitifully.
