The Vampire Is an Academy Honor Student

Chapter 089. truth (2)

“… … .”

Roan follows Mercedes out. Noah looked outside.

Beneath the world tree stretched high into the sky, I could see numerous elves playing around.

It was so long ago that I don’t even remember, but there was definitely a time when I lived with them.

They made me yearn for the outside world for the first time, and at the same time carved a bitter wound.

Is that why?

When you look at it for a long time in a strange feeling.

“Do you resent them?”

“… … .”

Sigrun, who had been watching the scene from behind a step, asked quietly.

After thinking for a while, I shook my head.

“no.”

At one time, I resented them.

But not now.

I went through a difficult life, but thanks to that, I was able to go out and now I can look 100 years into the future.

‘Will I live as long as you?’

Even for an elf, 100 years is a long time.

Still, since I’ve been confirmed, I can wait long enough.

By that time, all the ties that were with him would have disappeared.

In addition, there is still one unspent wish that was received after winning the running bet before.

Of course, there will be no way to immediately grant the wish that was only spoken, but it is enough to sustain these long years.

“okay. you are… .”

In response, Sigrun blurted out his words with a strange expression.

Maybe you think it’s strange.

“… … .”

“… … .”

There was no conversation after a brief Q&A.

Inside the drawing room, where the only two narrators all shut up and become quiet again.

Sigrun, who had been thinking about something for a long time, opened his mouth on a heavy subject.

“I don’t think it’s strange. Wouldn’t that just be dangerous?”

“… ?”

“The magic of your body. It seems to be dormant this time. And although it seems to be suppressed well normally, it is not strange if it explodes anytime in an extreme situation like that time.”

“… … .”

“Isn’t it?”

“that’s right. but… .”

“The road he walks will be a thorny road. The trials of the past can happen again and again.”

I was speechless and closed my mouth.

He licked his lips, but not a single word came out verbally.

“… … .”

Because there was no room for rebuttal.

because he buys

As if the trials so far were nothing, even greater trials will come.

“still… .”

I still want to be by his side.

answered that.

“… Way. I will keep looking.”

“… … .”

Instead of answering, Sigrun looked down at me.

Gazes sweeping all over from head to toe.

“… ??”

When you don’t know the intention and wonder.

she opened her mouth

“Margie is part of you. It must be controlled, not suppressed. All mixed races I know have gone through that process.”

“that… .”

I know that. However, this situation is different from the general mixed race.

Controlling demons that outnumber them by at least 10 times is like a dream.

It’s not that I don’t know that, and if I could, I would have tried it right away.

I frowned because I thought I was saying something nonsensical.

“I have a suggestion.”

Her eyes widened at her words.

“Would you like to learn from me?”

“… ?”

“I say it because it shows talent. If you grow up enough not to be eaten by demons, you might be able to control it.”

“… !!!!”

“It’s not easy, of course, but the possibilities are there.”

there is a possibility

It wasn’t a lie.

I asked, suppressing my trembling feelings.

“No, if.”

“yes.”

If you learn, where do you learn? and how long will that last?

Hearing the question, Sigrun scratched his chin and pondered for a moment before answering.

“The place is Elbenheim. I can’t leave here without a mission. The period… maybe 3 years. I think it will take about two years at the earliest.”

“… … .”

“Do I need time to think about it?”

Originally, I would have refused without hesitation.

Because I was very satisfied with my life so far.

But this time it was not so easy.

It was because the situation was different from before, and I swore again.

I promise to be your sharpest sword.

This is a promise that is difficult to keep now, when one cannot properly control the energy inside one’s body.

‘… … .’

The worry didn’t last long.

oaths must be kept

Like he never told me a lie.

“… I will.”

“Good idea. Then you just have to convince the apostle. Shall I tell you?”

“I will do it.”

‘2 years… .’

It’s twice as long as the time we spent together.

However, this was fine because it wasn’t such a long time for me or him, who will live a long time.

There was just one thing I was worried about. Even after a few years, I wonder if my place will still be there.

“… … .”

It wasn’t just for a day or two, if he was away for years, Roan would have no choice but to find a new lady-in-waiting.

From noble mtl dot com

Then I don’t know, but can he not forget me until then?

I couldn’t be sure.

“… … .”

So when you’re worried

After some time, Roan came down after talking with the World Tree.

No matter what had been said above, his expression hardened slightly.

He hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and approached.

“… excuse me.”

and said

For the sake of Magi’s control, he wants to stay here for a few years and learn from Lord Sigrun.

“uh?”

Roan is startled.

I was worried about what to do if I said no, but it was only for a moment.

It was because he responded with a straight face.

“good. It’s just fine.”

“… ?!”

* * *

After finishing the conversation with the World Tree, Mercedes approached quietly and asked.

“Did you have a good conversation?”

“yes.”

It wasn’t just empty words, he really gained a lot from the conversation with the World Tree.

There were a lot of rather shocking contents, but all of them were the truth of this world that was hard to turn a blind eye to.

“Thanks to you, I feel like I’ve found my way.”

“That’s nice. What are you going to do now?”

“I will be right back. I don’t think there will be any more time to delay.”

Now that I realize that I am the only apostle, it can’t be like now.

I have to quickly put aside the thought of being dependent on others and become stronger.

‘Then the academy is meaningless now.’

Even if I stay there, it won’t help me grow because I’ve already surpassed the cadet level.

It would be much better to train Sir Kayla in mental space.

The only worry was Noah, who had to be alone for a while, but this was resolved unexpectedly right away.

‘not bad.’

Sigrun and Noah’s swordsmanship is very different, but if you learn about controlling energy rather than swordsmanship, there will be a lot to learn.

If the period is several years, there is a high possibility that the control of demons will be successful.

“Good.”

“… ?!”

When he asked and accepted right away, his expression darkened strangely.

“why?”

“… no.”

After a while I realized why.

Still, she seemed to be disappointed that she accepted without hesitation even though she worked as a maid for a year.

He smiled bitterly and spoke.

“It’s because I have something to do alone for a few years anyway. So it worked out.”

“… to do?”

“It’s like you.”

“ah… .”

Only then does Noah’s expression loosen up.

I was relieved and said to Sigrun, who was standing next to her.

“Then, thank you.”

“yes.”

I was ready to leave right away.

Before he climbed the World Tree with Sigrun’s lieutenant who served as an escort.

“Noah.”

“… … .”

When the time came, he called Noah, who had been staring at the ground for a long time.

And put a dagger and a necklace in her hand.

“I bought it while you were sleeping for a few days after receiving treatment. I don’t think I will need up to a hundred, so just one.”

“… !”

And this time it’s really expensive.

So don’t eat it, I told Noah, who was looking down at his hand blankly.

“Bye. I’ll come pick you up later.”

* * *

The academy arrived one night earlier than the day promised to the instructor.

It was late when classes were already over, and the next day was a day off, so I decided to visit him after the weekend and tell him about dropping out.

‘Should I explain to the duke?’

If you drop out without any explanation, it will be quite confusing.

And now, I don’t know if I’m going to need the help of my family, so I have to tell you about the apostle.

Also, the Duke of Gilead is by no means a light-mouthed person, so there will be no problem with what he says.

Before going to the family, I wrote and sent a letter in order to lessen the psychological shock.

I sent it to Laurel, who was waiting for me in the kingdom in advance.

“All you have to do is show the duke this seal along with the letter.”

“yes. What do you do after handing over the letter?”

“Please wait at the gate. I think I’ll be leaving soon anyway.”

“All right.”

I wrote about Laurel separately in the letter, so the Duke will allow me to stay.

“Then let’s go.”

Laurel and the next morning.

I headed to the gymnasium.

I see two familiar faces at the gymnasium in the distance.

Dante and Fay.

I got closer and started talking.

“… Roan? When did you come?”

“Late last night.”

Dante greets you.

On the other hand, even though Fei worked in the same group once, he was not that close, so he only slightly raised his hand.

I looked around the gym once and said.

“But are you alone?”

“It’s the weekend.”

“Uriel.”

“You must have gone to your parents’ house yesterday? close too They say the family issue has been resolved.”

“… Oh yeah?”

“But why?”

“I did it because I had something to say when everyone was there. I can’t help it.”

“… ??”

If I went to my family, I would be back tomorrow evening at the earliest, but I decided to just tell them now.

“what?”

“Before I went to the Empire, I said I had something to say.”

“… uh, did you? It seems that it was. What.”

I revealed to them that I was an apostle and left the word that I would soon quit the academy.

“… what?”

Unlike Dante, who doesn’t believe it easily, Faye’s expression changes when she tells her what happened in Eden.

“How do you… . no way?!”

“that’s right.”

Faye, who had been staring at her with a worried expression, let out a shrill voice.

The explanation took a long time.

how long has it been like that

The direction of the shadow changed and the lengthy explanation ended.

“… So, I think I will need your strength later.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“I’m not leaving right now. Think slowly and tell me what to do.”

“Uh, uh… .”

I left the gymnasium, leaving the two deeply troubled.

Judging by the expression on his face, even if he is confused for a while, he will make a decision and come back soon.

Especially for Dante, I’ve laid a lot of base food so far.

‘then… .’

Now only Uriel remains.

* * *

Sunday, late night.

Uriel, who arrived at the academy by carriage, headed to the dormitory alone.

stop.

‘No.’

Then, it quickly changed direction.

Even if it was because I had been to my family, I had already taken two days off from training.

Even if it was late, I thought it would be very uncomfortable to sleep without doing anything, so I headed to the gymnasium.

Awesome… .

When you step into the quiet gymnasium and try to warm up.

“also. I knew you would come.”

“… Scatter!!”

Startled by the voice that came from the darkness, a shrill voice came out reflexively.

When I looked around, I saw Roan sitting in a corner of the dark gymnasium.

He asked, shaking his chest in surprise.

“… What are you doing there, Roan?”

After looking at this for a while, Roan brushes his butt and approaches.

“You have been waiting.”

“Me?”

“You said you had something to say when you came back.”

Then I saw it.

Did I say something important?

… Still, waiting at the gymnasium in the middle of the night wasn’t a good idea.

It must have been creepy, but what if I didn’t come?

“Why don’t you tell me tomorrow at this time… .”

“no.”

“… ?”

Roan stopped talking and looked at the sky with a full moon.

Then he clenched and opened his fist a few times before continuing his words.

“Right now is perfect.”
