Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~

198-Episode 23

To be honest, I have no recollection of what she said on the stage.

It's because I was in love with her, who had become even more beautiful than four years ago.

Celestia-san, huh........

I didn't know she was the princess of this country.

Well, if you think about it, the place I met her then was a castle.

This isn't a normal girl, is it?

''Hey, Ark!

"...Ranta??What's going on?

The next thing I knew, Ranta was rocking me back and forth.

What's the matter with you? I've been calling you for a while and you've been distracted. The entrance ceremony is over, okay?

I looked around as I was told, and found that all the new students, except us, had already left their seats and were leaving the main auditorium.

It was quite crowded.

You are still beautiful, Princess. It's the first time I've ever seen her from this distance.

Uh-huh.

I never thought I'd be able to go to school at the same time. I'm so glad you're in. It's just a shame it's magic school.

Apparently she's in the magic department.

The school building is different from the martial arts department, and since she's a girl, naturally the dormitory is different as well.

No, she doesn't have a dormitory in the first place....

In any case, even though they go to the same school, it seems that they will never have the opportunity to come into contact with each other.

The crowding has finally cleared up, so we stood up.

We headed for the entrance where people were beginning to arrive.

'But Leila-chan was cute too.

Hmm??Leila?

For some reason the name of my twin sister came out of Ranta's mouth and I was amused.

'She's the girl I was greeting as the freshman representative.

Speaking of which.

I seem to remember wondering vaguely why Leila was on the stage.

After all this time, did I get it right...?

'But she's a magician too.......it's nice to have a magician.......'

Ranta muttered enviously.

'I mean, you look like Leila, don't you?

Yeah. Because--

Hey, you're in a better place.

As we left the main auditorium, a person approached us to interrupt the conversation.

It's Gaon-san.

As usual, Izart-san was attached to him as well.

I'm not going to be the only one who has a problem with that.

'You, now go buy what I tell you to buy.

'What??Could that be...?

Pasiri came!

Speaking of seniors and juniors, he is a pastry.

Pasiri is my senior and junior.

To be able to experience one of those adolescents I only knew in stories, in reality.

''I get it!''

Oh, hey... you're a fighter.

For some reason, Gaon-san's face twitched in response to my reply.

But soon, though, the corners of his mouth twisted in a nasty way.

There's a bakery called The Weather Channel, and their croquette bread is delicious.

Croquette bread, it's delicious.

It was a staple in my previous life, but I don't think I've ever heard of it in this world before.

They had them in the other world too.

''I should just go get that croquette bread, right?

Yeah, yeah. There's still time for lunch, but I'm getting hungry.

Okay. I'll be right there.

I was just about to leave when Lanta got upset.

Hey, hey, do you know where the weather room is?

Oh, I don't know. You know?

Of course I know. It's a famous bakery. But it's the opposite of the city, you know??How long do you think it would take to get there and back?

Right opposite of the city.

I can get there in five minutes if I work hard.

Ranta gave me the exact location.

All right, I'm out of here.

Good luck with that.

For some reason, Ranta looked at me with pity.

The Gaon's were smirking.

Five minutes later.

I got the croquette bread safely and returned to the academy.

Where do you think Gaon-san and the others are?

They weren't already in front of the main auditorium, so I had to look for them.

I remember most of the signs, and it shouldn't be so difficult to find them.

'There they are. Rooftop, huh?

Gaon-san and the others were on the roof of the martial arts department building.

I thought it smelled kind of bad, but Gaon-san and Izart-san were smoking cigars.

Students are not allowed to smoke cigars.

That's probably why they are hiding and smoking on the roof.

Very school-like!

You should try it, Ranta.

No, no, I'm not...

'Oh??I told you to smoke it.

Okay, I understand.

Ranta was forced to take a cigar.

He's already a complete Gaon's henchman.

'I bought them!

...What?

When I called out cheerfully, Gaon-san looked at me with a stunned face.

A cigar fell out of his mouth.

''Ugh, don't lie to me!?There's no way they're coming back this fast!

No, I got it all right.

I give them the croquette bread I just bought.

I thought maybe Izart and Ranta would eat it too, so it's for three people.

By the way, I already ate it. By the way, I've already eaten mine, and it was quite good.

When Gaon received the bread, his eyes widened.

I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do that.

Yes,

It's true that they only sell bread there... And it's warm...?

I was lucky enough to get some freshly fried, so I brought them home while keeping them warm.

They should be at their best.

As Gaon-san bit into the croquette bread, it made a good sound, a crispy, good sound.

''Ummm........''

As it was, Gaon-san ate all of it at once, I thought, but then he ate the second one, then the third one, all by himself.

It was for Izart-san and Ranta.......but oh well.
