Chapter 276 - [17th Round] When I Become a Secondary Student…

“In the name of Master Mollan, our savior, the savages of Fantasy ask, ‘Why are you so soft and firm?’ To such a question, Master Mollan answers, ‘Mollan!’ They think they live, move, speak and act for themselves, but they do so solely in the name of Mollan! Do you understand?”

“Not really, no.”

Classmate A had a stupefied expression on his face.

Clicking my tongue, I consoled him.

“Everyone is the same in the beginning. There is no need for us to hurry. If everyone could understand the truth so easily, there wouldn’t be so many fools in the world.”

“Listen, my husband’s friend. Mollan is Mollan. There is no other meaning hidden behind his existence. Don’t try to grasp it as he did.”

“Why are you trying to monopolize Mollan’s Teachings, cowardly wife? Why do you not want to share his wisdom with anyone?”

“Stop uttering nonsense already.”

“Mollan~”

Master Mollan, peering out of Ssosia’s mean chest, gently swayed as we argued.

That was it! The truth was right in front of us, yet my dear friend still couldn’t see and fathom it!

At the same time, however, Classmate A, staring at Master Mollan, suddenly nodded.

“I… I would like to be reincarnated as a slime. Han Soo, I think I’m starting to understand what you mean a little.”

“If so, then henceforth, you shall be known as a follower of Mollan’s Teachings.”

“Yes!”

Ssosia rolled her eyes in response, but I generously ignored her.

Monopolizing Grand Master Mollan didn’t sound like a bad option, but she shouldn’t think so narrowly.

Such wisdom couldn’t be hidden from the world. The more people Master Mollan’s teachings could reach, the more beautiful the world would become!

“Cowardly husband, let’s pretend for a moment that all you’ve said is true.”

“You don’t need to pretend.”

“What will happen if immoral people learn of him?”

“There is no need to feel worried.”

The doctrines of Master Mollan could be understood only by those whose hearts were as pure and fair as mine.

That was also exactly why my wife should give up her desire for monopoly!

“Okay… Do what you want.”

The demoness, convinced by her MAX-Class Great Husband, finally surrendered.

I wondered how to proceed from here.

“My dear friend, where are you going?”

Usually, the way was paved by the Lanuvel, the worst pretender to ever exist.

However, Classmate A now traveled alone since Lanuvel dumped him.

Pfft…

I knew I shouldn’t laugh at his misfortune, but it just kept getting funnier the more I thought about it.

At the moment, we were on the border of the Dumpling Kingdom.

He’d enter the Holy Empire if he went north and the Holy Kingdom if he went east.

Hence, our location was considered one of the most important trading points, considering that the borders of the three countries converged here.

Classmate A had been spending time and money in this large city for several days.

But there was nothing wrong with that.

? Type: Personal File

? Name: Piko

? Alignment: -

? Main quality: Passionate

? Experience: 66 years

? Record: -

? Overall rating: An ordinary student without any talents or shortcomings who wants to win a woman’s heart with his passion. There is a record of him graduating with good grades, but after re-admission, his academics worsened. He serves as a good example to illustrate why people should stay away from bad friends and influences.

66 years of experience.

Now, he’d be able to plan his own journey without Lanuvel, like me, after the 1st round.

Since he was so passionate…

He should go to the Southern Continent.

However, this wasn’t my adventure, which was why I decided to listen to his wishes instead.

“The destination is, of course, the Northern Continent.”

“Is this because of her again…”

“No! It’s not about the Ice Princess this time! Even if it is, she’ll be a great addition to my party if she joins… Ahem, okay! Listen to me first. As a high school student, you probably already know this, but there is a Holy Sword on every continent of Fantasy. Alex told me about it.”

“That married man? Hmm…”

Alex had lived for 2,000 years, taking care of the Snow Woman throughout it all.

If he were his source of information, then no one would doubt it.

Classmate A even shared the names of the weapons, although I didn’t ask.

Central Continent: The Holy Sword of Humans, Automania.

Eastern Continent: The Holy Sword of Dwarves, Highmollan.

Western Continent: The Holy Sword of Vampires. Mollanpis.

Southern Continent: The Holy Sword of Giants Mollancoyne.

Northern Continent: The Holy Sword of Mermaids, Mollanrod.

“Hmm? Come to think of it… Four of the five Holy Swords have similarities in their names. Is this a coincidence, or are they somehow related to Mollan’s teachings?”

“I told you. Mollan’s teachings have a long history.”

Two thousand years ago, as the Max-Class Righteous Hero, I spread the greatness of Master Mollan through flush toilets across all the continents of Fantasy.

It wasn’t surprising that the names of the Holy Swords referenced him. I would’ve named the aircraft carriers and cruisers after him on my home planet as well.

“That’s amazing… I had no idea.”

Classmate A’s faith skyrocketed from F-rank to D-rank.

That was proof that he truly admired Master Mollan.

“Why do you need the one in the Northern Continent? Wouldn’t it be best to target the one in the Central Continent first?”

“Automania is complete junk.”

Holy Sword A was equipped with basic features such as auto attack, auto defense, and auto dodge.

I also thought Holy Sword A was useless, but I had never heard another hero say that.

I decided to ask about it.

“Junk?”

“Consider Alex’s skill, for example. Automania’s automatic attack is limited to Z-rank Sword Mastery, but his was at G-rank, a rank I had never even heard of before. It would be like a fly trying to fight against an elephant.”

“I see.”

So he wanted to find a different Holy Sword in hopes of it having better specifications?

“I decided to find Mollanrod, the Nothern Continent’s Holy Sword, since even though I don’t know what its functions are, I know the landscape of the Northern Continent better than most, making it easier for me to obtain it. After making money here, I’ll head straight to it on a ship from the Holy Empire.”

“That’s a good plan.”

“What about you, Han Soo?”

“I’ll tag along while continuing my research.”

As already agreed beforehand, I would make him pay for my resentment by following him.

“Cowardly husband, don’t spoil your friend’s adventure as he follows the path of a hero. I don’t know what kind of relationship you’ve had in the past, but I think he’s a good person.”

“Ssosia, you, it turns out, are a gullible woman.”

She so easily succumbed to Classmate A’s compliments.

“No, I’m not! I’d rather be alone than get bound to a cowardly man like you! I used to be considered an idol and the symbol of all the proud single ladies across the universe.

“Sure.”

Without proof, her words were weightless.

But the inhabitants of Fantasy chose me as “the cutest.”

That was an indisputable fact.

“That must’ve been some mistake! No tampering was found, but there had to be some sort of manipulation occurring behind the scenes!”

“Why can’t you just admit that I’m the best husband you could ever get?”

“Hmph!”

“My niece has always hated losing. She’s so adorably pissed off~”

“Auntie!”

Classmate A slowly gathered funds by hunting weak monsters near the city and selling his loot to merchants.

It was a very passive method, but there was a reason for that.

? Race: Arch-Human

? Level: 450

? Job: Hero (Experience 500%)

? Skills: Sword Mastery Z, Interpretation A, Male Energy D, Strength D, Karma E…

? Status: Good

His stats weren’t impressive.

Considering that he was still in the primary education course, he wasn’t doing that bad, but I had seen many heroes starting their journey with transcendental skills already.

However, all preconceptions aside, his growth rate was pretty amazing.

In particular, his Z-rank Sword Mastery stood out.

Unlike Alex, the barbaric savage from the 4th curriculum that treated people like punching bags, the current Alex, after marrying the Snow Woman, had become more prudent and seemed to have begun training the heroes correctly.

However…

“Hero, you shouldn’t do that.”

“… Do what? I just sat down to eat.”

“You took a table for four in the middle of the day. Please transfer to the table for two in the corner.”

“Oh… Okay.”

Because of Karma E, the city’s attitude towards him was subpar.

Although the locals didn’t harm him, they treated the Hero chosen by God as an ordinary customer.

Even mercenaries were treated better.

And many of them, without any problems, occupied a table for four alone.

What about me?

I sat down at a round table for six people in the center of the restaurant. As the mercenaries immediately stared at me, the waiter hurriedly approached me.

“Dear customer, if you don’t have anyone accompanying you…”

“Should there be?”

I gave him the smile of a Righteous Hero with a hundred years of experience.

Based on what I had gone through so far, this specific smile of mine could solve all problems.

After all, those who didn’t appreciate it couldn’t live to see another day.

“Oh no. Please enjoy eating alone in peace! Hahaha!”

“That’s what I thought. Hahaha!”

“Well, I’ll be leaving now. I’m in the middle of something… Hahaha!”

“I don’t know what other business you have, but I want to place an order. Hahaha!”

“Huh?! Oh, that’s right! I’m sorry!” The waiter, who seemed to have forgotten about his duties for a moment, apologized with a pale face.

“It’s okay. It happens. Serve me a dish for two.”

“Oh! So you do have company?”

“Does it matter?”

“Not at all! I was just curious… I am terribly sorry! Excuse me! A platter for two, coming right up!”

Classmate A, sitting at a table for two in the corner, looked at me with an indescribable expression.

‘Haha! My dear friend, this is the difference between us.’

“Cowardly husband, are you sure about taking this table?”

“Are you blind?”

“Are you? This table isn’t even for four but generally for six.”

“So?”

My goal, which I had achieved, was to see Classmate A’s gloomy face as he looked enviously in my direction.

The mercenaries around were also unhappy, but this was only a minor side effect.

“So immature…”

“Immature? I just used my MAX-rank reputation. But since it bothers you so much… Bring me dishes for six instead of two!”

I decided to fill the empty seats at my table.

Rice Cake, Boris, Green Cake, Shadow A.

The table for six was now fully occupied.

“This restaurant is too pathetic for you, Master.”

“Who should I get rid of, sir?”

“I haven’t eaten with my father for a long time. This is making me nervous…”

“I’m only here because of my love for Elfheim.”

The table immediately became noisy.

But the rest of the visitors were quiet. They stared at us and whispered lowly.

“Isn’t that the Hero?”

“You think so?”

“Oh, strike me with thunder!”

“Oh! I have lost my appetite.”

Hey! If they were jealous, they should just get married too.

“Han Soo, I have a question.”

After a good meal, Classmate A turned to me with a serious face.

“Ask away.”

“Can I summon beauties like you when I become a secondary student?”

I wanted to honestly say, “It will be the same in high school!” But my friend’s gaze was too sorrowful for me to do so.

We were in the Fantasy World, a place full of hopes and dreams.

Even if despair came at the end, there was always a place for happiness.

“Sure. So don’t give up, my friend.”

“Ah!”

Classmate A, impatiently awaiting my answer, instantly shone, erasing his melancholic expression.

‘Save this fragile soul. Mollan.’

I was too kind to be the Demon Lord. My father-in-law made a big mistake by handing over the family business to me.

Ssosia, who was next to me, looked somewhere into the void and muttered.

“Father… Don’t you feel sorry for the heroes?”

I didn’t know what that was for.

Thanks to me, Classmate A overcame his crisis and, with a heart full of aspirations, had become prepared to go to the Holy Empire.

“Do you remember me, good Hero?”

Hero?

A female was looking at me, not at Classmate A.

A beautiful lady with green hair approached me. She looked like a goddess of fertility due to the black-haired boy and a green-haired girl she was holding the hands of.

“Who are you?”

“Thanks to you, Hero, my dream finally came true. These two children with me are the fruits of it.”

Oh! I see! So who was she?

[Active: Hahaha!]
