Chapter 63 – Episode 39-1. Dalian
A classroom with a quiet atmosphere.
Perhaps thanks to the quiet atmosphere of the classroom today, Allen, who slept every night, looked around the classroom with a slightly tired expression.
“Good morning.”
“Oh, are you here?”
Welton approaches Allen and gives a brief morning greeting, and Allen responds with a short greeting.
“Yesterday. Did anything special happen?”
“Are you talking about Mirai?”
“Okay.”
“Well, if you can, don’t run into it.”
“I get it.”
After another short conversation, Welton handed a piece of paper to Allen.
“What?”
“Last time. You can’t distribute medicine in the name of your family. Still, I’ve been looking for nobles who are interested in medicine.”
“Really? Maros will like it.”
Putting the handed paper between the notebooks, Allen exchanged trivial conversations with Welton, and with the sound of the door opening, a bewitching red woman climbed onto her desk and the quiet atmosphere in the classroom became even more quiet.
“It’s a relief that there are no academy students acting like idiots today. Now, here’s a few messages.”
The academy students started to get nervous when they heard that there was a message to be delivered.
When Cordelia says she has something to say, all the academy students pay attention to her because she mostly takes the paper test.
“Mirai, Mirai is not feeling well, so she says she’s taking a break for the past few days. And…”
Cordelia’s succinct words. Academic students may think that is cool to hear, but…
In fact, before she entered the classroom, she visited Mirai’s dormitory, worried about Mirai, and said warm words to her to rest in peace, comforting the girl who was in pain.
“The festival will be held in a month.”
The school lunches, which had been sweating while focusing on Cordelia, turned bright when they heard that the festival was to be held in a month.
“Be quiet.”
However, as if pouring cold water on Cordelia’s word to be quiet, the school lunches again remain silent and focus, but in the excitement of the festival, the school lunches are having a small conversation with her next-door friend.
Of course, Cordelia, aware of the excitement of the festival, tacitly allowed the noise and continued her words.
The cold ice cracked and Cordelia slowly spoke her words in a warm atmosphere, and the festival went like this.
About a month later. The academy festival held at the academy seems to be a fairly old tradition, enough to attract people from other countries.
At the end of the rules and explanations of the various festivals, Cordelia tells the school lunches to ask if they have any questions.
‘It’s a festival.’
As Allen thought of the festival in a month, she had a good idea.
“…Allen Mestia. Do you have anything to say?”
The chilly tone sent a chill down his spine.
Cordelia, still angry, looks at me with her arms crossed and asks.
“Could you join the other class?”
“It’s possible. But since I’m the homeroom teacher, will I be allowed to join other classes?”
Cordelia’s words made me feel strange if I didn’t approve with a laugh.
If it was in the past, I would have just ordered it… Looking at it now, it’s just so cute.
“It would be really nice if you would give me permission?”
“…I’ll let it go, so the rest can decide on a class theme for the festival in a month and report after school.”
Having stifled my words, Cordelia left the classroom proudly. The school lunches were so excited about the festivities that would follow that the classroom instantly became noisy enough to remind me of a market hall.
‘Of course, it’s not like I don’t know how the school lunches feel. Me too… Huh? What?’
A shadow falls on Allen’s face as he watches the academy students having fun with a pleasant, adult laugh while lying face down.
“Allen Mestia…!”
“Good morning, Chloe.”
Angry face. And the look of Chloe looking down at me trembling with her dainty fists clenched… This is it. It wasn’t bad.
“What’s going on?”
“Yesterday… I must have waited after school yesterday…!”
“I did. I’m sorry.”
“What? Sorry? Ha!”
Surprise mixed with bewilderment. A breath mingled with laughter. Lastly, Chloe’s 3-piece set that exhales when she is dumbfounded.
“I’ll let you know today instead.”
“Are you telling me to trust the words of a guy who can’t even keep his promise?”
“I’ll buy you something delicious.”
“I’m not even a child…!”
Chloe shows resentment towards Allen for treating her as a child.
“Then what should I do to believe you?”
Allen says it’s annoying.
Although it is a necessary existence to attack the villainous daughter. She didn’t have to insist on Chloe.
However, looking at it as a whole, I couldn’t help thinking that Chloe was an essential existence for easily attacking the villainous daughter anyway.
“I want to sit next to you and study.”
“That’s not allowed.”
“A child named Mirai won’t come out, so why not…!”
“Because it’s Mirai’s seat.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
“Anyway, no.”
When told that she couldn’t sit in Mirai’s seat, Chloe shuddered and glared at her Allen as if to kill her.
“Chloe. Instead, if there’s something you don’t know during breaks, I’ll teach you my favorite study method. So don’t sit in Mirai’s seat.”
When Allen says no, Chloe goes back to her seat and tells her never to break her promise again.

“Today, one by one, you’re going to compete with me!”
Christine brings up the word of sparring with herself to the academy students gathered in the playground.
A look of astonishment. The students at the academy, who were jeering at each other, were protesting against Christine.
“Then who will go first?”
However, ignoring all the boos, everyone starts to become quiet when someone says they want to fight first.
‘Food puppies. If it’s just black, it’s black. What kind of rubbish is so much.’
Of course, Allen, who induced this situation, looks annoyed at her academy students as if they were her third person.
That was the moment when she raised her hand and tried to fight first.
“I’ll do it first.”
“Huh? Will Vivian do it first?”
Christine and I were taken aback when Vivian suddenly raised her hand to fight first.
“Hey. I’ll raise my hand first…”
“Shut up.”
Arlen protests against Vivian, and she tries to say that she raised her hand first, but she soon responds to Vivian’s cold and impassive attitude. Even so, she shut her mouth at her gaze and tone of voice that saw something inferior.
‘Huh… You attack me no matter what. Shiba…’
“Uh… Then, shall we fight Vivian first with the teacher? Then Allen would be fine, right?”
“Yes. I don’t care…”
“Let’s start quickly, Ms. Christine.”
Vivian interrupts Allen again.
‘Ah… My blood pressure is rising… Whoa.’
Allen let out a deep sigh of annoyance and decided to calm down for now.
‘Yeah… Let’s think of it as a good opportunity. Because how Christine will turn out is enough.’
“Now, since it’s a light sparring, let’s do it with a wooden sword.”
The two people who came up to the arena clearly had different gripping styles.
Christine slapped her wooden sword over her shoulder and acted like an outsider who had never held a sword before, while Vivian, on the other hand, held her sword with both hands and lowered her posture as much as possible in a textbook style.
“I’ll do it lightly, so relax Vivian too.”
“It’s Dalian, but can we do it lightly?”
“Oh my God. I don’t want to see my student get hurt.”
Before the swords were mixed, the two talked lightly, but the meaning was heavy.
“The sparring time is 1 minute 30 seconds. Allen must set the timer correctly?”
Before going up to the arena. Showing Christine the timer she had received earlier, Allen nods her head in reply.
“Let’s start in 10 seconds. The two of you, please prepare at your own location.”
At Allen’s instruction, Christine and Vivian are located at the end of the arena, facing each other, and the sound of swallowing saliva from the academy students watching around the arena can be heard like waves.
