chapter 41
41. Fox
After arguing for a while, the two of them abruptly stopped fighting and began to talk in an amicable manner.
“Siira, here… … .”
“yes. I can’t help it.”
Then I started eating too late. Stella and Shira, who were looking at each other’s eyes, exchanged a signal for something, and Stella opened her mouth lightly first.
“… … Ian, eat this.”
Saying so, Stella took the food placed in front of me with a fork and offered it to me. However, there is no difference in the menu, and since I have already tasted it, I dared to refuse it.
“It’s fine.”
“Who, do you know who is doing this to feed you!? I’m full, so I’m giving you a chance to clean it up for me!”
“If you don’t want to eat it, can you throw it away?”
“Bur, it’s a waste to throw it away.”
“Such a waste?”
To be honest, the clothes she bought without any bargaining were more precious. I think I would have saved the cost of this course meal if I had just gone to a cheap clothing store or had just bargained a bit… … .
As I hesitated a little at her inconsistent behavior, Noah, who was scratching the bowl next to me, raised her hand.
“Then I’ll eat you!”
“-What? sleep… .”
“Yes, Noah can eat it.”
I got the fork from Stella and handed it to Noah. Noah blushed slightly and looked at the fork, then cautiously opened his mouth and approached.
“Ah, ah… .”
Putting the fork into her carefully opened mouth, she shut her mouth tightly and began to chew the filth.
Its appearance was as cute as a small hamster, and it made me smile without realizing it.
“Oh, Noah. Sauce on the cheeks.”
“Yes?”
“Seven seventh.”
When I found the sauce on her cheek, I used a napkin to wipe the sauce off her lips.
Noah closed her eyes tightly and protruded her mouth to make it easier to wipe the sauce. Like the main character, even if she made an expression that could be hated, her beauty did not fade.
I wiped her lips and looked at Stella with a fork.
“Oh, Stella. here po… … what’s the matter?”
“—It’s nothing.”
“I think I’m angry… .”
“I’m not mad.”
Looking back, Stella’s expression was very cold. It was a little, but I felt like I had seen a ghost behind her.
Shira was looking at Noah, exclaiming for some reason.
Please, it was incomprehensible behavior.
* * *
natural.
Shira looked at Noah and remembered the word.
It was the first woman that this word suited her as well as her.
‘If it’s a personality, it’s a genius, if it’s an acting, it’s a genius.’
As I watched him flirt with Ian with his innocent personality, I felt my stomach boil.
It was very distasteful to see Ian getting stained little by little by the natural trap. I wanted to fulfill the role of the Acacia family, but… … .
‘That’s not okay.’
The role of the Acacia family,
To assassinate nobles who undermine the future of mankind.
On the other hand, Noah was a necessary human being.
In addition to the 3-star Summoner, a person who summoned two summoned beasts alone.
The second lumber of the sun that appeared after the first emperor.
‘Rather, it’s a plate to be protected.’
There are often idiots who think that her existence is a threat to the security of the empire. Her family has identified and dealt with such idiots in advance.
The safety of the empire is nothing compared to the future of mankind.
‘I couldn’t figure out why the Duchess of Selene went to Iritz’s home, but… … .’
Does not matter. Even if she didn’t find out, the family’s agents would steal the information.
And there was no harvest at all. I discovered a circumstance that something had happened between Ian and Stella in the Iritz estate.
After organizing the information on paper, Shira immediately opened the window and whistled. It was a whistle with a regular rhythm.
After waiting for the window to open, a black crow flew into the night sky and entered her room.
– Professional.
“know. It’s not like I see you in a day or two.”
She pulled the note from the crow’s ankle. And he put the paper he had written on it. After confirming that he had received the note, the crow disappeared as it was.
‘Is it information? … .’
The note contained information sent by a family spy.
It was information about Selene Rudolf Iritz.
[Confirmed that he received a message that the Iritz family was in crisis]
[Check the information that high-level demons have invaded the Iritsu home]
[Confirmation of Duke Iritz’s expedition]
[Confirm that there is no power to block advanced demons in the territory]
『The party who went to the territory like Stella Iritz is charged with the second-class betrayal of humanity.』
“… … What is this?”
Shira read the note again.
However, the content of the message did not change.
‘Ian, a traitor?’
* * *
There were numerous facilities prepared for students in Canopus Academy.
A student cafeteria or student cafeteria that provides free meals to students.
A training ground where you can train freely on a regular basis.
It was a library with all kinds of books.
And, of course, there are leisure facilities among them.
‘… … What is this?’
I was in the pool now.
“Squirtle! Water cannon!”
─Pooh woo woo!
“I can’t lose, whirlpool potato!”
─Whoa!
From afar, the summons continue to spit out water. The wind blows up the water and creates waves.
It is the completion of the artificial wave pool.
The children throw themselves into the wave pool, wearing tubes made from the bodies of floating monsters.
Which kids don’t like it?
In the distance, the wood attribute pets took root in the bath, or the fire pets were in the boiling hot water.
This was a water park made by summoners.
‘Why the hell is this place here?’
It was one of the facilities that shouldn’t be in the academy.
The indoor pool is a bit like that, but is there a water park at all?
‘Developers you crazy bastards.’
It was a situation where profanity came out of nowhere.
While grumbling at the unrealistic sight, someone approached me.
“Eight.”
Kook-wook-.
Something presses hard on his back and covers his eyes. From a few experiences, I could tell that it was the chest that was touching the back. Her breasts were not covered with fabric either.
“Who are you?”
“Sira.”
“It’s not.”
“Don’t play around.”
He grabs his hand and pulls it out forcibly. When I released her grip with force and turned around, she stuck out her tongue and stared at me as if she didn’t know.
“What, where is the power to solve?”
“my heart.”
“okay? Then- voila-!”
Shira took off the clothes she was wearing, as if to cover my mouth, and threw them away.
She quickly changed into her underwear.
“What, what are you doing!?”
I quickly closed the front of her. Then Shira tilted her head as if asking why.
“—Why are you covering it?”
“Why are you hiding now? … .”
“This is a swimsuit.”
“… … What?”
Saying so, Shira showed me my underwear, no, my swimsuit again.
Yes, this was a swimming pool, and it was natural to wear a swimsuit in the pool.
And in a different world where the game is set, it was not unusual to have a bikini swimsuit.
‘no… I thought it was real underwear.’
Since she was such an unpredictable crazy bitch, it wasn’t strange to show up here in underwear.
He was probably a great person who could enjoy the gaze of others by saying that he thought he was wearing a bathing suit.
There was a misunderstanding due to her personality, but it also played a part because the clothes she was wearing looked so much like underwear.
“… … No, what kind of swimsuit does that look like?”
“Strange?”
“It’s not strange… … .”
The swimsuit Shira was wearing was a white bikini swimsuit with a ruffle on her chest.
An outfit that amplifies her cuteness.
Thanks to this, the other male students were also secretly glaring at me one by one.
“… … So, why did you call me here?”
Trying to ignore her outfit, I asked why she called me to the pool.
However, as his nickname was, he did not answer directly, but put his hand to my lips and let out a sigh.
“Hey, is that all?”
“Everything, what?”
“It’s a feeling, a feeling!”
Shira smiled and turned around.
Lacey followed her and emphasized her exposure.
However, it was clear that if I told her that I liked her, it would make me cringe, so I tried to put half a lie.
“So-so.”
“It’s just that!?”
“yes.”
“Boo… … Do you see a lady’s clothes and say that? It’s a penalty. Follow.”
Saying so, Shira pulled up and grabbed my left hand.
Clutching each other in an instant, she said she had a place to go and pulled me in.
Thanks to her strangely strong power, I was dragged around helplessly.
‘What the hell did you call me for? … .’
Seeing her incomprehensible behavior, I followed her.
* * *
Shira, who arrived at the ice cream shop with Ian, pointed to the shop and ordered Ian.
“ruler! Buy this.”
“I have no money.”
“Because it’s a penalty, there’s nothing to take away!”
There was nothing to say about the subject of eating, but Shira confidently ordered Ian. Hearing her words, Ian sighed a little and went into the store to order ice cream.

Meanwhile, Shira recalled the back of Ian’s hand she had seen earlier.
‘… … It’s different.’
If it was a characteristic of people who betrayed humanity and were attached to the demons, it was the change in their patterns.
From small changes in color to large patterns disappearing or changing altogether.
And Ian’s pattern had changed.
‘Really, Ian betrayed humanity?’
Of course, this was an allegation.
The suspicion that it may have been, not that he actually betrayed him.
Possibilities extracted from big data organized by sitting at a desk.
It was a reasonable guess based on the rationality that students who were only three-star Summoners could not defeat the advanced demons.
‘I can’t.’
However, there was something strange about it.
Noah, Stella, and De Noir-senpai were all intact, but only the pattern of Ian changed.
And if Ian betrayed humanity and seized the Duke of Iritsu, the demons should have invaded from the south right away, but it is still quiet.
Because of these two things, there was no order from her hometown to kill Ian.
‘I’ll be sure when I have time.’
At the same time as sending this message to her, the home family must have sent a messenger to the Duke of Iritsu.
Her job is to be prepared for the unexpected.
Watching Ian coming from the store with ice cream, she hoped it wouldn’t happen.
‘Ian, please. Don’t let me kill you.’
Looking at Ian coming from the store with ice cream,
