I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes

A story for the two of us

It was Veronica Eltwin who stood in my way.

Vacation is over, but why is she still the same?

The repertoire is still the same.

Now you’re asking me to apologize again.

You can tell even if you don’t listen.

It was our Veronica who did not change.

“that… ”

“I have no intention of apologizing, so get out of the way.”

Having said that, I tried to walk again.

For some reason, Veronica clapped her arms in front of me.

“Wait, Louie! Not this time… ”

What the hell is she talking about this time?

I wanted to hear it somewhere, but there was someone who stopped her.

“Son, I’m hungry!”

“yes?”

“yes?”

Seeing Master suddenly screaming, Veronica and I both looked back at her at the same time.

“Come on! Follow me!”

“uh? huh?”

Master grabbed my arm and in an instant passed Veronica and left the classroom door.

Its movements were very smooth and mysterious, as if they were using footwork…

‘What, is it real?’

Veronica from behind makes a dumb noise.

Before she could even call me back, Master dragged me out of Veronica’s sight.

Finally, let her stop.

I asked Master.

“Are you very hungry, Master?”

And I don’t know why, but Master looks at me with pathetic eyes.

“Disciple, I thought you didn’t want to talk, so I brought you out.”

“ah… ”

“Did I do anything wrong?”

“no. Thank you, Master.”

I said.

she asks me

“Is the guy you just met Veronica Eltwin?”

“Hey, how did you know? Did I say it?”

“The only thing that didn’t look cheap was the Veronica Eltwin you were talking about.”

“Pooh!”

We just left the building.

And again, it feels like the eyes of the cadets are focused on me.

Of course, the emotions contained in that gaze were slightly different from before.

All thanks to the Crown Princess.

Because at the funeral of the Earl of Ansberg, the president officially congratulated me.

Also, there was a case where I showed my skills in a duel with Leo before the vacation.

Well, of course, but that’s the way it is.

The cadets who had insulted me until yesterday suddenly said, ‘Wow, Louie, that’s amazing!’ There was no such thing.

It’s just, if all the words you talked about looking at me before were insults to Wallenstein.

Now, is it just that interest in the human being, Louis Wallenstein, has been added to it?

If this was a positive thing, it was a positive change, though.

Anyway, I headed towards the restaurant with Master.

Obviously I was

“Disciple.”

“Yes, Master?”

“That pigeon over there is fat.”

“… ?”

“Fat pigeons are a great source of protein.”

Saying that, she ran to the dove.

“Hey, stop.”

I grabbed her neck.

“Kek! What are you doing, my brother? Isn’t there a pigeon running away?”

I sighed.

Where the hell am I supposed to start explaining?

Picking up as many words as possible, I suggested to her.

“Master, now that you have come out to the world, you can enjoy a little bit of the power of civilization.”

“What does it mean?”

“Let’s eat at the restaurant now.”

Then she says

“It’s my time… ”

It came out again, in my time.

“… I had to pay to eat at the restaurant. Meals are free, so you should be grateful for these days.”

I tilted my head.

“Do I still have to pay?”

“Then I can’t eat?”

Oops.

“Are you sure you don’t have any money?”

She nods up and down.

“So let’s catch a bird. Ah, that chubby sparrow over there!”

While shouting, I snatched her up again as she ran towards the sparrow this time.

“Oops, I didn’t miss it again… ”

“let’s go. I will buy it for you.”

“Oh, is that for real!”

She asks me with her eyes twinkling.

“By the way, disciple. You always whine about not having money… ”

“It’s enough to buy you a meal, Master.”

Actually, there was no money.

Count Franz Wallenstein said he had no pocket money anymore.

Still, they gave me the minimum amount of money needed for academy life.

The problem is, they really only gave ‘minimum’ money.

So, if I were to buy food from Master every day, I would probably go bankrupt soon.

But I always had a solution.

Original game knowledge… was not related to

By secretly peeking into the wallet of Count Franz Wallenstein, I was able to solve some of my financial problems.

Maybe you’ve heard of it by now.

Anyway, I was very excited and headed to the dining room with Master waving his tail.

“No, it’s delicious!”

Master eating wagwagu food.

So the two of us are having dinner together.

Shortly thereafter, a person I used to dine with before vacation came to visit.

Yes, the princess.

She paused for a moment as she was about to sit in front of me as usual.

“who… ?”

Let her mumble involuntarily.

“Am yum yum… My name is Alice Schiller! are you?”

“… It’s Calia Schpelz.”

When the conversation was over, Master buried his head in the plate again as if he had no intention of continuing the conversation.

In reality, he must have been preoccupied with the food, but it means that he seemed so.

Eventually, the princess sitting in her seat opens her mouth again.

“Long time no see, Louis Wallenstein.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Well, I guess we weren’t that close.

It’s been a long time since we met, so it was a bit awkward.

Still, after the last funeral, we became closer.

“By the way, this one… ?”

“ah.”

I couldn’t answer the president’s question right away, and I pondered for a while.

And soon, I was able to choose the easiest answer.

“It’s a friend.”

“Hey. It’s really surprising that you had other friends besides your real woman.”

“Why are you suddenly stabbing someone else’s painful corner?”

Me and the president joked around for a while.

Overall, the atmosphere of the meal was quiet.

Basically, the president with a blunt personality.

It’s been a while since we met, so I felt a bit awkward with her.

And even Master, who doesn’t say anything because he’s focused on food.

It was a true comparison to the other cadets who were laughing and chatting with their friends around them while eating.

“Hmm… I think I saw it somewhere… ”

Except for the princess muttering that during the meal.

“Hmm, it was delicious!”

Master pats her little belly.

The princess, who had been watching that scene, turned her head back to me.

“Louis Wallenstein, I have something to tell you.”

“Yes? what… ”

“It has something to do with what happened at the last funeral… ”

She cautiously glances at Master.

Master, noticing this, pricked up his ears.

“uh… Master, would you like to go to class first?”

Anyway, I told Master everything, including what happened at the funeral.

It seems like the president wants to talk alone.

Well, Master has nothing to do with this incident anyway.

But for some reason, Master’s tail drooped after hearing my words.

“i get it… ”

I don’t know why, but she trudged into the building.

The chairman moved to a quiet place and started talking to me.

“I’m sorry, Louis Wallenstein.”

“Yes?”

“The proposal to call you to the Imperial Palace and directly congratulate you has been rejected. Whatever the process, the Ansberg estate was shattered… ”

she blurs out

“… That being said, because of your family, there is a lot of opposition… ”

I shrugged.

“Well, for me, it is enough for the president to step forward for me.”

Seriously, I didn’t really expect to be invited to the Imperial Palace.

It was a bit harsh, but because of this, the number of people who envy me and attack me may increase even more.

But, I was really fine.

As for how the president interpreted my expression, I became more apologetic.

“Whew… She should have argued more strongly.”

“No, no.”

I waved my hand violently.

Seeing me like that, she bursts into laughter.

“Louis, you are really… Others would be thrilled if they were invited to the Imperial Palace and received a reward for their achievements… ”

Looking at her moved face, I shook my head inwardly.

That must have been a big misunderstanding.

In the first place, I was not from this world, so even if I was invited to the Imperial Palace, I would not be very impressed.

What an honor or what, I don’t even feel that way.

“The invitation to the imperial palace was cancelled, but at least the original woman is definitely responsible for the reward. So that only the original woman believes in it, Louis Wallenstein.”

“Yep, Chairman!”

At my playfully spirited reply, she smiles again.

It’s something I keep feeling, but I’m really thankful and a reliable person.

—

After the conversation with the president, I went back into the classroom.

Leo and his gang were nowhere to be seen.

Veronica doesn’t seem to be in the classroom either.

Even Felice had disappeared somewhere.

Aine, who had been hanging around me until vacation, was not around today.

And there was Master in the classroom.

Naturally, I sat next to her.

“… huh.”

For some reason, she turns her back to me and sits down.

“Master… ?”

When I called her name, Master pricked her ears.

I didn’t look back all the way.

what.

After all, she didn’t talk to me until lunchtime was over.

And in such a situation, a man enters the classroom.

Even though Master was busy contemplating why he was doing this, I thought in my head.

‘It’s out, the first event of sophomore year!’
