C38: Alvito

 

A little back in time, in the Ostrode Kingdom.

The expedition to the Magicalize Kingdom had been set, and the students were spending all their time training to become even stronger. Perhaps because of this, the individual abilities of the combat team far surpassed those of A-level adventurers, and the support team was also improving their level of cheat.

In the training center, two swordsmen were battling each other with iron swords provided by the kingdom.

“Here I come!”

“———”

One is Shosei Nakatsugawa, a boy who is the strongest in his class and is known as the “Hero of Light. The other is Alvito, a girl who handles Nakatsugawa’s sword with a cool face.

It’s no exaggeration to say that Nakatsugawa’s swordsmanship is top-notch. But Alvito ducks, dodges, and handles his attacks. Of course, she doesn’t use any cheats, just her swordplay and physical skills, but Nakatsugawa is astonished inwardly.

With her shining silver hair fluttering in the air and a soft smile on her face, Alvito wielded her sword. Nakatsugawa thinks that she is beautiful and worthy of the name “Warrior Princess.”

Finally, the decisive moment.

“Shoo!”

Their swords crossed each other and stopped just before the tip of the blade reached each other’s neck, it was a draw. They slowly drew their swords——and Nakatsugawa chuckled.

“It’s a tie today.”

“Mm-hmm. Yeah.”

Alvito smiled a flowery smile.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

Nakatsugawa and Alvito were leaning against the wall of the training center, talking.

“Even so, Alvito is quite strong. You are indeed the strongest warrior of the Ostrode Kingdom.”

“Heh, thanks, Shosei.”

“Yeah. I mean——where have you been all this time? I’ve never seen you in the castle. Were you on a mission?”

“No, I was asleep. I’ve been through a lot.”

“Hmm, are you all right now?”

“Yeah, for the time being. I’m not perfect yet, but I’m fine.”

“I see——“

Suddenly, the conversation was cut off.

Nakatsugawa and Alvito were the only ones in this training center. Since their training would be in the form of a real battle and would be dangerous, Ashcroft had forbidden others to enter so that they would not be collateral damage.

Only selected students were allowed to use this training center.

“Oh, there you are.”

“Akane, you’re here.”

“Hello, Akane.”

“Hi, Alvito. And Shosei——-“

“What’s up, Akane?”

“Nothing. I’m sorry for interrupting your private time with Alvito.”

“It’s not like that, and I’ve got you.”

“——well, if you know what I mean.”

Nakatsugawa and Akane blushed and averted their faces. Then Alvito looked at both of them alternately.

“You two are ‘in love,’ right? What kind of feelings does that mean? What is “love”?”

“Oh, love——Akane, I got it.”

“What!?”

“The data says something about ‘thinking of each other’ and ‘mating’. You guys mated, right? How does that make you feel? Mating is an act of procreation, isn’t it? How does that lead to love?”

“Oh, my God, Alvito. What do you mean, “mating”?”

“Didn’t you guys do it together at night? You took off each other’s clothes, and Shosei took Akane’s.”

“Stop, please stop.”

Akane covered Alvito’s mouth and Nakatsugawa held his head.

This silver-haired girl named Alvito was like a child who didn’t know anything. Whenever there was something she didn’t know, regardless of the content, she would routinely embarrass the person nearby by asking questions.

“You know, teacher told me that I should ask everyone about interesting things and things I don’t know. There are many, many things I don’t know. So I want you to teach me.”

“Hey, Alvito.”

Alvito approached Akane and pulled her face close to hers.

Her beautiful silver hair, ruby eyes, and too-perfect appearance were right in front of Akane’s eyes, and her heart raced even though they were both women. Then, there were a few students coming this way.

“What are you guys doing, you look like you’re having a lot of fun.”

The one who grinned and stuck his hand in his pocket was Shinnosuke Kumazawa. He is a former ace of the boxing club and one of the strongest in his class. His short blond hair, which had been reversed, and his well-trained body showed how strong he was.

“Alvito, you’re still coming on to Nakatsugawa-kun, aren’t you? No…is the Hero Sama aiming for a harem?”

The person who spoke in a teasing manner was Tsubame Tokieda. A former member of the gymnastics team, she is also one of the strongest in her class. Her medium hair swayed, her body was slender and soft, but there was not a hint of weakness.

Harem——I see, after all, Nakatsugawa-kun is aiming for harem, the standard hero template. Akane has already been eaten, Alvito is next, then Tsubame, and then me——“

The one who indulges in delusions and twists her body is Ginko Hayama. Swinging her long, unfashionable hair and shaking her ample breasts, she’s making noise all by herself. Accustomed to this, no one reacted.

Shosei Nakatsugawa. Akane Shinohara. Shinnosuke Kumazawa. Tokieda Tsubame. Ginko Hayama. They were the five strongest of the thirty, and the main members of the Magicalize Kingdom expedition.

The walls of the training center had been crowded for some time and the topic of conversation these days was, of course, set in stone.

“Our first battle—-Heh, my arms are ringing.”

“Magicalize, the kingdom of magicians, we can’t be careless.”

“It’s our mission to protect this world from the Demon Kings, and we’ll return home after defeating all of them.”

“I understand, Kumazawa. Just don’t kill needlessly.”

“I’ll only touch those who are against us, those who are hostile to us, and the Demon Lord.”

“The expedition is near, we need to train as hard as we can.”

Kumazawa stuck out his tongue and made a reluctant face at Nakatsugawa’s earnestness. He had naturally grown closer to Nakatsugawa, the only boy in this group.

The girls were having a conversation with the boys.

“Are you guys leveling up?”

“Akane is the one who hasn’t raised her level because she’s flirting with Nakatsugawa-kun.”

“Don’t be silly, Tsubame. That’s not what this is about.”

“Kufufu……the rightful wife of the hero harem.”

“Ginko, don’t say things you don’t understand either. I will get angry.”

“Ugh, Akane, don’t be so crabby. Hey, Alvito.”

“Are you mad at me, Akane? Why are you angry? You’re mating with Shosei and making love to him, aren’t you?”

“Alvito!”

“What?”

“Wow, mating……seriously?”

“Shut up! Alvito, stop talking about it!”

“Yeah.”

Alvito, a pure and innocent girl, was a comfort and a bit of a problem for everyone. She poked her head into anything that she didn’t know or was curious about, and was particularly interested in human emotions.

In particular, she often stuck to Nakatsugawa and Shinohara, to hear how much they loved each other and to learn about their feelings. As for Nakatsugawa, he was troubled by the fact that such a pretty girl would step into his life unprotected.

When he went back to his room he found Alvito in a corner of the room staring at him, she would always appear and ask him questions. Besides, Alvito was ordered to accompany them on the expedition. It is true that she is a very powerful girl as a swordsman, but Nakatsugawa thought…

“…………”

“What, Shosei?”

“Alvito, this expedition……are you sure you want to go with us?”

“Of course I am. It’s what the teacher ordered.”

“Who’s your teacher, Mr. Ashcroft?”

“Yes. He’s the one who woke me up. He’s my best friend.”

“It’s true you’re strong, but only as a……swordsman. If you don’t have a ‘cheat’ like us, you might be at a disadvantage in a fight.”

Alvito doesn’t have any cheats. Even if he were to fight Alvito with all his might, Nakatsugawa is certain that he would win. Because he has his own weapons, enhanced light magic and trump cards.

However, Alvito was laughing.

“Don’t worry, I have a very special weapon.”

Everyone, not just Nakatsugawa, tilted their heads at that response. Alvito stood up and extended her hand.

“………Oh, I can’t use that without permission.”

“What’s that?”

“Do you really have a special weapon?”

Alvito laughed at Tokieda and Kumazawa comments. With this group of people, any enemy can be defeated. Not just Nakatsugawa, but everyone thought so.

The six of them laughed together in the afternoon of the day before the expedition.
