Noisy ……

“I-It’s huge ……”

“It’s really a dragon ……”

“It’s going to be tough to put a sword through him. The Commander couldn’t cut him either, right?”

At their suggestion, we decided to have dinner at the training grounds. I thought I should do something to help, but they said we’re their guest so refused they outright. It was getting a little late, so there were maids, waiters, knights and apprentices helping out.

“Ehem, he’s our friends!”

“He’s not scary at all!”

“Heh~, you’re amazing, you guys!”

Nora and Jack were talking proudly to the people who came up to him. Then Makina happily clenched her fists and held them in front of her chest and spoke enthusiastically.

“I’ve been very impressed by the bravery of the knights as well! I’m also in the holy knight club of Oblivion Academy!”

“Heh~, then you’re also in the practice match before ……”

When one of the knights said this, the person in question came over and opened his mouth.

“Han! Even though you’re the one who was beaten up to a pulp by me! What’s a dragon?”

“Grrrrr ……”

“What ……? Did you take on an underclassman? What was Gurudo thinking?”

“Oh, t-that’s ……”

“Huh? Why are you stammering?”

“Oh …… you ……”

I hid the snarling Makina behind my back and thought this was my chance to give her some cover fire.

“When we came to the practice match, our teacher told us that they were planning to have the ‘less talented’ kids fight, but when we opened the door, all the senior students were members.”

“What ……? It’s true that you can’t always fight people who have the same level of ability, but that’s a terrible thing to promise. Find Gurudo! I’m going to question him! Gong, you come with me!”

“Hyiiii!? I-I’m sorry-!? Damn it, nothing good happens when I get involved with these people!?”

You’re the one who came at us, though. He’s probably just trying to get Makina’s attention because she’s cute. I thought it would be a bad idea for Gurudo to stay in the Holy Knight’s club for now, and I was going to tell someone when I was done, but this was fortuitous. 

“I’m sorry about that, kiddo. I’ll get the facts and come apologize.”

“Oh, now that Lars-kun punished him, so I’m okay! Er……?”

“Oh, my name is Itsuart. The second-in-command of the Knights Order on that mountain. I don’t think you’ll remember me, I couldn’t stand against him, after all.”

He candidly laughed saying, “hahaha”, then he said to Itsuart-san ……

“Oh, I’m fine.”

Sarge pokes his head out. I pat the tip of his nose, and Makina and Itsuart-san laughs.

I’ve heard that Gurudo is in the same class as Itsuart, he was once a member of the Knights Order, and is very skilled. 

When Itsuart took over as vice commander, Gurudo was so frustrated that he stopped trying, and retired from the military to become a school teacher.

“The problem is that he has a lot of pride ……”

“Oh ……”

As I was thinking that I could somehow understand him, dinner seemed to be ready. He and the maid, who was Itsuart’s girlfriend, went to call the king and princesses and then left us.

“Mmm, that looks delicious. It’s nice to eat somewhere other than home once in a while.”

“Nina is going to complain that our food is good, too.”

“You guys, it’s almost ready, so let’s wait quietly.”

“Yes.”

We decided to wait for a while, hoping that the king and the others would come soon. Huh? By the way, Tigre-sensei and the other teachers aren’t here, where did they go?

◆   ◇   ◆

(T/N: Is she trying to say tigre? I think she is.)

The room was ransacked, she was lifted by Lucera by the neck, and Verna was pierced in the stomach with a knife.

We’ll find out what happened in the beginning of the next chapter!

Thank you for reading!

[Afterword Theater]

“This is the kind of thing readers complain about ……”

Is it bad?

“Yeah”

Wait, make fun of me like you always do!?
