There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field

24. party

There was not a single cloud in the sky, but the night passed like a storm.

I was taken aback by Seria’s surprise behavior and lost my composure. I had to reveal my true identity to her.

She probably knew everything I said after the kiss was a lie.

But nonetheless, I told her not to come close.

because that’s right

Because that’s the best choice for you and my given environment.

If the proof goes back to failure at the academy, then ask for forgiveness from her again and promise to apologize in any way.

I tried to rationalize myself and calm myself down several times, but I still couldn’t guess what Seria was thinking.

I thought that he would probably resent me for pretending not to know with a high probability.

Maybe with those words as a starting point, he could forget about men like me and find a new relationship.

As long as she was happy, it was okay even if she wasn’t next to me.

If it was a choice like that, I thought I would be able to send it away with a smile, even though it would hurt me inside.

The homeroom teacher ordered everyone to return to the gymnasium 1 by 10:00 in the morning.

Today, I went out to meet Luna in front of her room until 9:30.

“Si~ri~u~s~”

As if Luna was in a good mood, she hummed a song and called my name.

Unaware of anything, Luna smiled brightly and folded her arms around mine.

Her silver hair gleamed.

“Uh huh. You shouldn’t do something like arms folded in front of others. Lady.”

I wonder who will see, it was me who stopped her today.

“Ah~ no one~ no one~”

She didn’t even pretend to hear me.

I wasn’t surprised because she usually listens to me with one ear and lets it go through the other.

Still, it was the moment I was trying to tell others that if they really saw it, they should release it.

Luna suddenly looked at me with a serious face.

“who is this.”

It was Luna’s voice that was serious.

But I didn’t have anything in mind, so I tilted my head.

“huh?”

Luna stopped walking.

“Aren’t you a person? Then why are you doing that?”

“Sorry. But I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Did I do something wrong without even knowing it?

There was no way there would be any traces of what happened on the terrace yesterday.

That’s because I left Seria behind.

“eye.”

“eye?”

“You’re blind.”

Ah… It seemed that the aftermath of yesterday’s sobbing from Seria continued into the morning.

I didn’t know if it was swollen when I checked it after washing, but Luna seemed to notice it like a ghost.

“Who rang.”

It’s Seria.

“It’s not like that… We’ll be late. Let’s go.”

I grabbed her hand that was blocking my way and tried to move forward.

But my hand just grabbed her hand and couldn’t move forward.

Rather, she pulled my hand and made me turn around again.

“That stuff doesn’t matter at all.”

She made eye contact with me and said.

“I won’t ask anymore. If you don’t want to talk.”

yes. please don’t ask

Every time you ask, life seems to be shortened.

“But promise me. Anything that hurts you or makes you cry… is something only I can do…”

Luna brought my hand to her face and kissed the back of it.

“So… if anything other than me is giving you a hard time… please tell me.”

she let go of my hand

“Because I’ll destroy them all.”

After saying that, she smiled and was so cool.

Sometimes I was struck by her words.

I felt like I was some kind of princess.

Luna is the prince who protects me.

It seems like something has to be the opposite, but I didn’t think this was bad either.

But I’ll keep it a secret this time. Prince.

I don’t want to see the prince crush the hero.

I nodded and headed to the gymnasium with her.

Today, unlike yesterday, all 12 people arrived on time.

The homeroom teacher seemed very thrilled that we had all arrived.

I wanted to make a face like that with something like this.

“Now that everyone seems to have arrived on time, I’m going to make a temporary party based on what we talked about during the interview yesterday and your skills.”

It was worth seeing the students, who seemed dazed, prick up their ears when they heard that it was a party.

“It’s the first party. Seria. Arin. Kairin. Zeke.”

As expected, the first group seemed to be a group of warriors.

That’s right, since it’s time to find out the compatibility with the hero, the main character Joe, I thought it was natural to come out first.

I looked at Seria.

Seria didn’t seem to care much about her group.

Curious about her reaction, I looked at her, but she also looked at me and our eyes crossed for a moment.

Seria gave me a slight wink in that short gap that no one noticed.

what. what does that mean

It was me who was anxious about something.

Arin smiled, as if he was very happy to be in the same group as the hero for the first time.

No matter who saw it, that expression looked like I was so happy.

Seria liked cute things before, so I thought Arin would like it too.

From nob le mt l. co m

Kairin was a blonde girl with straight hair.

I’ve never spoken to her, but her expression always seemed cold.

It seemed that he was not very interested in making friends with other people.

She didn’t even have a special weapon, so I couldn’t tell what her specialty was.

I thought he might be a person with many secrets, just like me and Luna.

Zeke was like a typical brash warrior.

Zeke, whose size was distracting, seemed to know what his specialty was without having to tell him what it was.

To be honest, I thought it would be my specialty if I just went to the battlefield in that state.

I didn’t really think that I could knock it down.

At least I had the feeling that Muturo wouldn’t be able to defeat him even if he died.

I even heard him laugh, and he seemed to be a little more masculine than me when he laughed like “ha ha ha”.

This was the temporary warrior party assigned by the homeroom teacher.

I thought it was a somewhat predictable party, and it seemed like I could cover Seria well enough just by watching Arin and Zeke.

“The second party. Luna. Leon. Alfonso. Cairo.”

Apparently, this time neither Luna nor Seria were at the same party as me.

Once in this state, I thought I would be able to live a little more comfortably during class.

This time, I was curious about Luna’s reaction, so I glanced at Luna right next to me.

Luna pouted as if she didn’t like Joe.

I didn’t have to explain what I didn’t like.

You probably don’t want to fall with me.

The second group also didn’t know each other’s human compatibility, but I thought it was very well-balanced as a party.

Leon, who gave me a good impression last time with his direct question to his homeroom teacher, was an exciting handsome man.

His physique was firm to anyone’s eyes, and the muscles hidden under the uniform were asserting themselves as if the clothes were stuffy.

Certainly, I thought it would be a strong front line for the party.

Alfonso didn’t look like he had muscles compared to Leon, but I could feel that pure mana was flowing through him.

Anyone with even the slightest knowledge of magic would surely be able to feel it.

He was a powerful human wizard who had been solidly built from the ground up.

I suddenly thought that if Alfonso had the magic to eat raw, he would have trained to this extent.

Cairo was a dark-skinned man with long hair that was a bit blue for a man.

He was carrying a huge bow behind his back, the size of which a skilled person could handle and attack from a really long distance.

And his hands, which were huge for his body, caught my eye.

The hard calluses visible on his fingertips provided an explanation for that.

After putting together Luna’s party, I thought it would be very strong.

It was to the point where I thought that if I were to take the final semester proof test as that member, I would never lose.

That’s why everyone’s individual skills seemed to be outstanding.

“It’s the last party. Kane. Sirius. Raven. Yuri.”

To be honest, my makeshift party looked weak compared to the others.

Because first of all, because Seria and Luna didn’t exist, it could be seen that our group, which missed the first place, was a bit behind in the rankings.

And I’m at the bottom of this class. It was Sirius.

Of course, it was a false skill, but it was clear that it was a loser party without fail when you look at it with the eyes of the people around you.

From nob le mt l. co m

Kane didn’t seem to like his party.

Brown-skinned and blond-haired, carrying a huge halberd behind his back, he kicked the floor.

He also had a strong physique, so he seemed to be able to buy me time to cast magic.

I’ll try my best so that I don’t end up last… Please don’t be angry…

Raven was a pale-skinned child with long black hair like Amelia-sama.

Unusually, she was wearing a mask, but I wasn’t sure why she was wearing it.

There was no weapon that was particularly visible, so I had no choice but to ask directly what his specialty was.

The last one was Yuri.

Yuri was a somewhat androgynous man, but he was a slender, handsome man with long hair tied back.

He also had a bow on his back like Cairo’s, but it looked a little smaller than his.

But just by looking at his body and face, he already seemed agile.

I’ll have to ask him to try a running race with me later.

I’m not confident in my power, but my speed isn’t bad.

Although it looks a little clumsy and weak, I liked my party this time.

If you’re lucky, you might even be able to make new friends.

“Now. Anyone who has any questions or objections regarding the distribution of this party. Again, let’s take turns having a party with the hero once in a while. Other than that, anyone with complaints.”

From nob le mt l. co m

Kane, who was in the same party as me, raised an objection, but he seemed to have no intention of doing so.

It was an atmosphere where no one said anything, so at one point, a student raised his hand to break the silence.

“Sir. I have an objection.”

Wouldn’t it be objectionable to party with the dragon every once in a while? I thought it was funny.

That’s what I objected to

“It seems appropriate to assign Sirius to our party instead of Arin.”

Because it was Seria.

At this point, leave it alone. a little.
