Chapter 148 – 69-5 the 3rd Day of the Festival.
“Don’t you think it will become quiet if you remove all the obstacles in front of your eyes?”
“You don’t hesitate to say scary things. I’m just patrolling, so what’s that?”
“I didn’t come here just to do something like this.”
“I don’t think the person who broke Miss Christine’s leg was going to say that. But there isn’t much left, so I’ll do my best.”
At the far end of the sky where the setting sun was setting, the night embracing the stars was coming.
“By the way, there won’t be any girls visiting you today, right?”
“Yes?”
“Didn’t the blonde rabbit and the pink girl come and disturb you every time you fell asleep? So today…”
“Somehow, I want to have some alone time, it sounds like this.”
“Isn’t that obvious? Allen, don’t you know that I feel very upset if someone else gets involved while I’m having a good time with you, Allen?”
I’m honestly a bit surprised.
It was surprising that Clos Cero, who always grumbled and showed it outwardly, but never opened his mouth, spoke his honest feelings to me, which was the cause of his displeasure.
“What are you doing with those surprised rabbit eyes? It’s not like I made a mistake.”
“Just. I think you are being a bit honest. The person who grumbled in the past is cute today to see what kind of wind was blowing.”
“…I’ve always been honest, but to be cute to my master. It sounds obvious.”
At Allen’s words, Clos Sero pauses for a moment, then replies in a rather impudent voice that he has always been honest.
“Oh right. Chloe Sero. Didn’t you say you were given a present as a prize in Dalian today? Then I have a favor to ask of you, will you listen?”
“…Please. If you ask me to do it, isn’t it ‘that thing’ of course? Hate.”
“Yes?”
“Of course, I said that if I wanted anything, I would give it as a gift at any cost, but apart from what I do at night. As long as it’s under you…”
“No. Not that. I was just going to ask you to ride on Clos Cerro’s back and roam the sky. What a misunderstanding…”
“Keuheumm…!”
“I…”
“Kuheumm!!”
Clos Cero clears his throat loudly and long so that Allen can no longer open his mouth.
Before I knew it, Clos Cerro’s face was so red that it was comparable to the hair of the red flame, and he cleared his throat and ignored all of Allen’s words.
‘…Did I become an assistant teacher by itself because I always ask for it? What is that Pavlov’s dog?’
“Kuhmm… Uh, how is it quite hot… Hey, maybe it’s summer… Huh…”
Closero, who was clearing his throat as if to change the mood, was blaming the weather, cooling his face with his hand.
‘The person who didn’t even sweat must have been quite embarrassed.’
“Shall we drink something?”
“Bo, do you feel the thirst that will burn my throat… Hurry up and buy it…!”
“Yes. But what should I buy?”
“…As long as it’s cool…!”
“All right. Then wait a little bit here. I’ll be back soon.”
As he confirmed with his shining golden eyes that Allen had left to buy a cold drink, Closcer was doing the pointless act of hiding his face with his hands.
‘I want to die… For the first time, I feel like I want to die…’
It was embarrassing.
Clos Cerro’s legs trembled in embarrassment, and as if standing still was too much for him, he crouched down and exhaled a long sigh.
Then, he removed his hand from covering her face and was shaking the sweat that was dripping with embarrassment.
‘If you retreat like this… My pride won’t allow it… But if you don’t go back to rare… Just like what I do at night… An obscene existence that only thinks of that… Go…”
“What are you doing?”
“Heh, hehe…! You came quickly. Hmmm… Is this the principal’s…?”
At the sound of Allen’s voice, Clos Cerro jumped up, coughed again, and snatched the cold drink from his hand.
Squeeze…! Misleading! Oh Do Dog!!
“…You must be very thirsty… To think you’ve already bitten into an ice cube.”
“That, yes…! Mo, I am very thirsty…”
After drinking the cold drink, he chewed on the ice at the bottom of the cup and spoke as if making excuses.
“Oh, what a delicious drink…!”
“…Because I don’t care too much. You don’t have to be so…”
“Bo, what is principal? Well, let’s patrol more than that…! I-I can’t do anything like this, so hurry up and follow me…!”
Seeing Clos Sero’s flustered back as he rushed ahead as if running ahead to patrol, I burst into laughter.
“No matter how you look at it, it’s cute. What you do is so cute.”
“Daddy, come quickly!”
“Yes, I will go.”
Clos Cero, who ran out first, slightly turned his head to look at Allen and cutely yelled at him to follow him.
****
“You have suffered. Thanks, Allen.”
“No. What is suffering And, of course, it is what you have to do.”
Arlen, who returns to the health room after patrolling and buys a lot of food, eats a hamburger and laughs hard not to feel sorry for Christine, saying it is natural.
“By the way… What kind of hamburger is that?”
“Oh, is this? Christine, I brought you in case you were hungry.”
“I see. But… Still a great appetite…? No, gluttony?”
“I guess it’s because it’s pretty tasty for something kids made. It’s getting over me.”
Filling the empty plastic bag… No, it’s just a huge amount of hamburger wrappers piled up to the point of overflowing… Oh, it’s overflowing.
“Eat a lot. Oh, would you like a Coke?”
“Uh? Ah thank you But can I ask you something?”
“Yes. You can ask.”
Christine’s cautious question made Allen think that something was coming.
She said, “She said Allen would tell me after the festival, but she doesn’t have some strange relationship with the woman she met during the day…? Or if she’s under duress or something, she can’t be a teacher… But she’ll introduce you to someone else…!”
“No. No weird relationship, no blackmail. It’s just a priest-teacher relationship.”
“…Are they like that between the priests and the like?
“It’s not like that. She is learning magic.”
When the words of such and such a priest come out of Christine’s mouth, she smiles reassuringly, saying that Allen, who recalls what happened, has never had such a thing.
“You may not be known, but you are still the strongest person I know.”
“No wonder. While calling her a human being, calling herself the main position was because her skills supported her. She thought she was a bit sick at first, haha.”
Christine thought Closero was a strange person with a bright smile.
That’s right.
Because other people’s ears won’t be familiar with the word principal.
Even royalty don’t say that.
But…
What would have happened if Clos Cerro had come with me to the infirmary and listened to Christine…
“Well, even if his personality is a bit eccentric, he is a person with skills that can be proud of as the strongest in the continent. Originally strong people are all unique.”
“…That’s true… But maybe it’s not really like that…? Honestly, do you still have doubts?”
Christine’s half-closed eyes glared at Allen, and she asked Allen, covering her mouth so that no one would notice.
“It’s never like that. Why should I swear?”
“Oh, no. You don’t have to go that far… But it’s good that you’re a teacher. I also thought you were being sexually harassed by Mr. Clos Cerro, who moved out… No, Allen.”
‘I think he was trying to say that he’s obviously a strange person, but he hurriedly changed his words…’
“Please. Well, to be honest, since I was close to Clos Cero-sama in a half-naked state, it might be reasonable to make such an illusion.”
“I’m glad you’re okay.”
“Yes?”
Christine let out a sigh of relief, sweeping his chest, and smiled awkwardly.
“If a swordsman teacher can’t even save his students, that’s… A little like that, haha…”
“I don’t think so at all.”
“Huh? I… I thought I was very ungainly…?”
“No way. He was one of the nicest people I’ve ever seen. What is unsightly?”
Christine’s heart thumped at Allen’s words that she was the coolest in the world while denying that she was ugly.
“Uh? Oh no. I confidently came to save the student, but I ended up getting beaten…”
“Christine is a strong and wonderful person. And Miss Christine knew from the beginning that Clos Cero was strong.”
‘Ah, yes. I knew from the start. Obviously, the word “Strength on a different level” Seemed like a word made for Clos Cero.”
“Even though you felt that way, Christine-sensei didn’t run away, and you fought with Clos Sero-sama because you weren’t sure what would happen to me.”
“Even if Allen goes to the field of astrologers, he will be very successful… He is very good at guessing…”
“I don’t know if you’re just shy. To me, Miss Christine is amazing.”
“I-I’m such a great person…”
Christine’s heart, which was stabbed to the point by Allen’s words of being embarrassed, was now afraid that Allen might hear the thumping sound of Christine’s heart, as if an earthquake had occurred.
“If I had been the other way around… I would have run away, to be honest. There is a clear difference in skill. Even if I did, it would only delay the change, but I would have thought that and ran away. But Miss Christine was different.”
Allen, who was sitting in her chair, got up and took Christine’s hand, her tense eyes, watching her bewildered with her earnest eyes.
“…Seo, if you are a teacher, it’s a natural thing to do… But…”
“Miss Christine.”
Christine’s heart throbbed at Allen’s manly face.
I couldn’t explain anything.
Just looking at Allen’s face, her chest… As if her heart had been hit with electricity, now her whole body felt light and dizzy.
“Ah, that… Uh, hey… Oh, my head is dizzy today… Everything, kid, let’s talk…”
Watching Christine blush as she stammered her excruciatingly, Allen let go of her hand regretfully and opened her mouth.
“Today I would like to say thank you, but next time. When my leg is completely healed, then I will tell you my heart. So, I will go back today. I wish you a speedy recovery, Miss Christine.”
“Uh, uh… Uh, yes… Now, bye, Allen…!”
“I hope your leg heals quickly. Then I really will go.”
Allen leaves the health room with a plastic bag full of hamburgers and wrapping paper.
After seeing her leave the health room, Christine took the pillow she was sleeping on and buried her face in it, desperately erasing the flushed face and numerous delusions.
“…I must be crazy… I shouldn’t be like this…”
Jumping up with her head buried in the pillow, Christine said to herself that she shouldn’t be like this, although he was seriously spouting out that he was crazy.
“Ha, how can a student and a teacher… How…”
Soon, Christine’s face twitched as she fell back into delusions of a future projected by Allen and herself.
“…Would it be good to have three children?”
Christine begins to picture her happy delusion in her head, smiling broadly as she drinks the hamburger and coke Allen bought for her.
