My Daughters Have Become Gods

40 – Possession

“Hmm. “Is this all?”

The sparring test for all first-year students in the Combat Department has ended.

It was a test that started right after orientation early in the morning….

The sun was slowly starting to set.

How much time has passed already?

Due to the large number of students in the Combat Department, the test took quite a long time.

It is a one-on-one sparring, and since it is often fought between students with similar skills, the battles increase a lot.

It was also a test that met the purpose of measuring skill.

After finishing the sparring first, I watched the other students sparring comfortably.

To check if there are any devils or devil’s minions among them.

However, no one showed such charm in any sparring.

Is it really not easy to get caught?

…… Surely it’s not in the combat department, but the magic department or special department?

Then it becomes a bit troublesome to find.

Zenith won the sparring match very easily.

As soon as he started sparring, he immediately crossed swords with his opponent.

After a few rounds of sword-to-sword combat, the opponent’s posture collapsed and the sparring ended.

It was elegant and fast swordsmanship.

Is this the swordsmanship of the royal family?

It was impressive.

A new sword technique with something to learn.

But…… A movement that feels intermittent is a movement that does not seem to be full power.

It felt as if he was hiding his power.

If so…… Is it the mysterious power of the royal family?

It is rather strange that someone of the caliber of a prince can at best perform at his best in a class test.

It’s strange that Sonia held the highest position in a country but immediately opened up her power.

“I understood well. Your level. This concludes today’s class. Everyone disperse.”

After Professor Leia’s words, the students gathered in groups of twos and threes and began to leave the training ground.

“Arwen. I’m losing now. “What do you plan to do?”

At that time, Janice came up to me and spoke to me.

“I’m thinking of going to eat.”

A long class that started in the morning.

Of course, I don’t need to eat in the body that Erde created, but I’ve heard that the restaurants at the Academy are very delicious, so I’m thinking about going there to eat.

“Then how about coming with me? “I want to know more about the new friend I made.”

He seems to be extremely popular due to his position as a prince and his gorgeous appearance.

He seems like he would fall for me if I just grabbed a passing female student and asked him to eat with me….

Let’s eat together with me.

He asked me to come with him in the morning too.

…… Are you interested in me?

No, no.

Even though he looks so handsome, he is still a man.

There is no way you would be interested in me.

Rather than that, it’s a man’s interest.

That’s scary.

When I left the training ground with Zenith, I felt many eyes on me.

If it was morning, the gaze was simply focused on him because he was an unusual barbarian accompanying the prince.

The interest arose from the fact that he was a barbarian who defeated the strong Sonia.

I don’t know anymore.

Still, since he is a barbarian, it would be nice if he could just be dismissed as a bubble and move on.

However, I feel uncomfortable that Sonia is being ignored.

‘I am…’ It shouldn’t be ignored. I am…… !’

The words she muttered after being defeated by me.

For some reason, it bothered me.

And maybe it was because during her sparring, I could see the image of young Alia in her.

“Student Arwen.”

At that time, I heard someone calling me from behind.

When I looked back, Professor Leia was standing there.

“Did you call me, Professor?”

“I have something to discuss with you. “Can you make time tomorrow?”

You want to talk to me?

…… Is it because he defeated Sonia?

“No problem.”

“Then come to my lab tomorrow morning before class starts.”

“Yes, I understand.”

After hearing my answer, she quietly left.

* * *

I visited a luxury restaurant within the academy to have dinner with Janice.

The academy functions as a huge city with numerous students and numerous faculty.

As such, there were numerous shops and restaurants located here.

Among them, we chose a suitable high-end dining hall and entered.

Zenice is a prince, so there will be no problem with money, and I also receive a lot of funds for my activities from Ecclesia, so there is no problem.

…… It feels like I’m living on a pillar, but if you really look at it, I’m carrying out a mission she asked me to do, so I guess I can use it to fund her activities.

You still don’t know.

The devil’s minions may be hiding in a luxury restaurant.

In my previous life, I didn’t have the time to enjoy a proper meal, so I didn’t know anything about etiquette, but in this life, I lived as a noble master.

Thanks to this, she was able to eat with Zenith without being embarrassed.

Of course, considering his personality I’ve seen throughout the day, I couldn’t imagine him insulting someone, but isn’t it a bit odd to show something like that in front of a new friend?

Whether Zenith was eating appetizers or main dishes, he ate very elegantly, as befits a prince.

Elegance without a single unnecessary feeling in its movements.

Is he also a prince?

Higher people are definitely different.

It looks like a delicate woman eating.

When the dignity of an aristocrat reaches its peak, does one appear like a woman?

…… I shouldn’t eat like that.

I remembered a question at that time.

A question I tried to ask him in the morning, but couldn’t because Planme interrupted.

“Zenice, you said the reason you came to the academy was because of what you wanted to achieve.”

“That’s right.”

“Could you please tell me what you want to achieve?”

It wasn’t much of a question, but it was a question for her to get to know him.

“Um…. “That’s a little difficult to say.”

Zenith looked slightly troubled.

“Is this something embarrassing to tell? I don’t care about that. “Surely I would laugh at my friend’s dreams?”

“Um… I consider you a close friend. But…… “It’s related to the secrets of the imperial palace.”

Secrets of the imperial palace?

“I am sorry, my dear friend. I’ll tell you later when the time comes. “Can you wait a little while until then?”

Zenith is smiling and talking to me.

Is it because he is a prince that he can’t even talk about his dreams properly?

His status, which I thought was all good, started to look a little different.

At that moment, a figure at the entrance of the restaurant came into my field of vision.

This person secretly enters the restaurant by hiding his entire body.

The others did not seem to notice its existence.

What is it? Why bother entering the restaurant in secret?

…… The devil’s servant?

I immediately strengthened my eyes with divinity and saw through them.

The true identity of Inyoung that was strengthened and seen through…… Plane?

Why did Planme go into hiding to open a restaurant?

I don’t know why… There is absolutely no possibility that the good Plane is connected to the devil.

It seems like there is something going on.

I’ll have to check it out later as I get closer to her.

Not yet… Because I can’t ask.

“Human… “Arwen.”

Just as I was about to resume eating, a voice spoke to me.

This voice… Sonia?

Sonia was standing right next to me.

I was too distracted.

I didn’t even notice Sonia approaching from the side.

“Consul Sonia. It’s been a while. “What should I do with my close friend?”

Zenice intervened.

“Prince Zenith. A long time. “I have something to say to your friend.”

What to say?

Is it because of the sparring from earlier?

“Is it because of the sparring that happened in class?”

Zenice asked as if she was trying to protect me.

“No.”

Sonia shook her head lightly from side to side.

“The person I serve wants to talk to you. “Can you give me a moment?”

* * *

“So. What brought me to a place like this?

The place she followed her was a corner of the restaurant, a hallway in front of the bathroom.

“It would be safe here.”

Is it because of someone else’s gaze?

It is certainly not easy for someone with the status of Archon of the Dark Union to act freely in front of people.

More than that, she is the person she serves….

The person she serves is the Consul, the highest position in the empire.

Maybe… Alia, the god of war, is the main goddess of the Dark Union.

-Nice to meet you. Arwen.

Same as Sonia’s face. It’s the same Sonia’s voice, but it feels different somehow.

This can’t be right…… Possession?

-I am Alia. It must be a lofty telegraph.

After 2000 years.

My long-lost daughter became a god and stood before me.
