Avoid Former Co-Workers

47 – 47. Distrust and Hatred (10)

Day 1 of the defense of Lemtert Village.

Around 1 am, the battle with Canolatl began.

The commander-in-chief is Professor Meuniher. According to his prediction, it was reported that it would be a long battle.

Day 2.

They are starting battles in turn, but it is best to block them in Remteert Village.

Since it was judged that it would be impossible to defend the western part of the state of Sheet, the range was changed from the entrance of the town to the eastern part.

Take extra care in areas that will be attacked by Canolatl.

Day 3.

Since the range has been reduced, defensive battles have become easier.

Compared to the first and second days, the number of injured has significantly decreased, and no casualties have yet appeared.

Day 4.

Additional Orthoptera-type monsters have been discovered.

Day 5.

A report on Orthoptera type demons.

There are many subspecies of this species, such as locusts, katydids, crickets, and crickets.

However, unlike the animals you are familiar with, it has evolved in a form that does not allow eating meat, so it has sharp sickle-shaped forelimbs like a praying mantis, so be careful not to cut it.

Considering that the species mainly lives in the western region of the State of Sheet, some squads have been reorganized and sent to the western region of the State of Sheet.

A squad was organized, but it is assumed that it will be difficult to deal with all of them because they travel along the western Lilchran Mountains.

Therefore, the enlisted men and garrisons defending in the western part of the state request to wait until the reorganized squad arrives.

The State of Sheet delivers information to the academy, and reports have been issued on what has happened so far.

“Not much difference.”

I can’t see a single difference from what I checked before leaving the dormitory.

For now, it means that we are following the same steps as in the past.

If that’s the case, what will happen at the academy will continue as it is. You just need to check it out.

-Dagdak, dagdak.

I heard that even a tiger will come when I say it. No, it’s because I came on a horse, isn’t it?

As I expected, instead of a school uniform, a female student wearing a robe unique to a healer returned to the academy to activate magic.

It was Erica.

And unlike Erica, who just arrived, students rushed out of the academy, unlike Erica, who entered through the main gate of the academy.

They passed through the front door without saying a word, all holding a piece of paper.

Some of them squeak, and there are others who give attention to them by patting their sides.

In short, hiding something is no different then and now.

‘There’s nothing more to see.’

Now that I’ve checked everything with my own eyes, it’s my turn to move.

“Oh?”

It’s been a while, but it felt familiar.

The feeling that the cuffs are slightly drooping. It meant someone was snatching my clothes.

There is only one person who shows up from somewhere and starts a conversation by pulling my sleeves without fail.

Is there anyone else besides Sylvia who pulls the cuffs first whenever she sees me?

“Junon, why can’t I see the fortress like this everywhere I go?”

“Uh… Um… I couldn’t contact you earlier. Sorry.”

To be honest, there have been so many crazy things these days. So she had no time to meet Sylvia.

I should have said something in advance, since I will only visit the same places every time, and I will mainly visit places where I am likely to be.

‘Fortunately, it seems Henna didn’t talk.’

-‘I won’t tell Sylvia, so don’t worry.’

I was dubious about it, so I prepared an excuse, but it seemed to be the truth.

“But why do you keep waiting for me?”

This is the biggest question about Sylvia. She was an idiot when she first entered the dormitory, but now she knows how to do everything she can.

There are some things that are better than me, and if I compare them based on my vitality, I might have to give up.

“Can’t I…?”

“No, I don’t think there’s a need for that.”

“There’s nothing wrong with just… Hanging out together.”

I was grateful that Sylvia thought of me in a positive way.

Even when she was admitted to the hospital, how touched she was that there was a real person to visit her.

She is the only one I can call a friend in my relationship that completely broke down while keeping away from the members of the Them Bris party.

‘But there’s nothing wrong with it.’

I thought I would do that only when I didn’t know how to do anything and had a bad reputation with other students, but what about now?

Classmates, seniors, juniors, and even faculty members say that the current Sylvia has changed for the better.

So it was. She needs to say something now. As well as for the future.

“I can do anything by myself, but what’s the use of staying by my side? Now I have to get away and do my own thing.”

Nothing. She knows how to take care of herself like this, and made a good friend named Hena.

It’s not like he deserves the resentment of the other students, and unlike the old days, he sometimes gets into trouble with nobles?

But unlike back then, when her face always had the same gloomy atmosphere, it seems that there are not a few people who can help her now.

For example, like the guys who secretly look at Sylvia as if she were a celebrity, and their eyes twinkle as if they were going to serve her, regardless of her gender.

But if you go to school with me, your school life is limited, and your time is wasted waiting for me every time.

I threw it out because I thought that he would live his own life only by finding something to do, but that he would never follow me around.

But…

“…?”

“Suck…”

What? Why is he crying Didn’t I say something wrong? But why?

“Did I do anything wrong to you? Why… Why would I…”

Wait, what if you cry here? That’s really hard!!!!

Somehow, the right side of my face is a little sore…?

As expected, when I hurriedly turned my head, I saw people gnashing their teeth with the momentum to curse me right away. It seemed that it could have been fatal due to an unexpected cause.

I’m afraid of the eyes of those Sylvia fans who asked who dare cry…

I think I can stop that stinging gaze from turning into a real blade if I somehow calm him down so that he stops crying.

But what should I say to comfort you?

No, I don’t know what I did wrong in the first place…? What should I really say to avoid the resentment of the students with those bloody eyes?

“Huh, Mr. Sylvia? Maybe…”

“Sylvia… Mr….?”

No, why are you crying louder… You said a respectful word very politely… Why are you crying more…?

I can’t. At least it was absolutely impossible to stay still in this state.

This is… Dangerous in a different way.

***

As Aris looked around the Levant Academy, she was overcome with a strange sense of incongruity.

“Why are you so quiet?”

That’s also true. In the usual Levant Academy, there’s at least one crowded coffin, even if it’s relative.

Dube Hall, where most of the general lecture rooms are located.

It is said that you can only listen to it if you pass a certain grade, but at Merak Hall, lectures are held in a specific academic field that is so popular.

The Mizar Hall, the center of students’ study and training, and the bulletin board hung with newspapers that catch the eyes of passing students.

Aside from that, the faculty room and the Megrez Hall, where major newspapers are posted.

Pekdagwan, where students’ dormitories and attractions within the academy are located.

The Alios Hall, where the museum, library, foundation, banquet hall, etc. Are located, and the guest rooms are located.

Lastly, to the Alkaid Hall, which was established in the form of a clock tower to supply magical energy to the 7 buildings and 16 buildings of the academy.

I don’t know what the other four halls are like, but the Duvet Hall, Merak Hall, and Mizar Hall are always full during the day.

However, I don’t see any strangely wandering students right now.

Lebrand Academy was empty at once, with the main personnel leaving, and strangely enough, students vacated their seats in groups.

─Hey, it seems to be quieter today for some reason, am I the only one?

─Isn’t it because the lecture isn’t going on?

‘I’m not wrong, but.’

That’s what Aris thought.

I just saw a certain group of people who rushed in during the day and cut off their travel permits because the lecture wasn’t going on.

But, unfortunately, I don’t feel like that’s the only reason.

─There are almost no other faculty members. Why?

Aris can’t answer that question either.

This is why it creates a strange sense of incongruity.

Students, if there is something to do, break the go-out pass in groups, it might be.

However, it is hard to understand that even the faculty members rarely show up.

Even if lectures weren’t going on, it was just the front desk, the cafeteria, and other faculty members who were far from fighting.

It was as if only the students were left behind at Lebrand Academy.

Then came the moment when the veil of doubt that Aris had harbored was removed for a moment.

“Hmm? Who?”

It was because of someone who grabbed Aris from behind as she was looking around the academy and hugged her tightly.

I asked who she was, but only one person would do this.

“Erika.”

“Tch. I got caught right away.”

As soon as my name was called, Erica, who did not look back and revealed her true identity, whined for nothing.

“Didn’t you go upstairs with the kids?”

Since Erica, who should have gone to Lemtert Village with the other members, is here, she was a natural question for Aris.

Erica sighed slightly, then she hugged Aris’ back tighter and entangled herself with Aris.

“I came down because I wanted to see you. I thought you would be lonely.”

“What?”

For some strange reason, Aris left the battlefield, and with that in mind, Aris gave Erika a hand to straighten her back. It was nagging time.

“It’s the only healing art on our team, but there’s no way Goden just sent it to me.”

“They said they weren’t feeling well, so they just let me go… Ehhhhh.”

“It’s my first actual experience, and the picky team leader will give me permission. Do you want to keep lying?”

“Chi. I’ll just let you go.”

She shows her slightly pouty face to Aris, who persistently asks her, but her seeds are not eaten.

Anyway, since Aris had been a mercenary in another team, there was no way she would just listen to Erica’s excuses or her complaints and let her go.

“There are so many things to learn, you can’t turn down the opportunity!”

“Ouch, it hurts! Don’t pinch me. Arisu!”

The size of the expedition also emphasized safety, so they had enough numbers, and the empire’s giants took command, and there was a mountain of things to learn from, which means that they turned away from that opportunity and came back.

In addition, it is a valuable real-life stage for Michelle, Erica, and Senia, who have not yet had team experience.

Erica blames her physical condition, and she has left too much to believe she has returned to the academy.

“Huuu, that’s really hard to pinch. Aris’s hands are too spicy.”

“Blow gently. Don’t make strange excuses.”

“I had some personal circumstances. That’s why I couldn’t go with the kids and came down separately.”

Aris’s eyes narrowed slightly, and gradually her eyes became sharper and even sharpened.

A light interrogation ensued, and it didn’t take long for Erica to admit that she had to return due to her personal circumstances.

Of course, she kept her mouth shut about that complex personal situation.

The sun rising in mid-heaven casts warm spring rays, but the academy is especially quiet today, so even this much attracts attention from the surroundings.

If you cause even a small disturbance, everyone in the academy might notice.

And, of course, there is someone who had a small accident at this time!

I’m not sure if I should call it… Small, and even though she’s had an accident, there’s no ambiguous side to it.

However, it is self-evident that she will attract attention at the empty Les Brands Academy.

At one time, it was no different from bad news, and now, after approaching the victims first and bowing their heads, someone who caused an accident with a girl who was rapidly emerging as a new idol to them was sweating profusely.

“That… Sylvia? First of all, stop crying! Do you want to stop crying…?”

“…”

I’m going crazy. It’s not even summer, so why does the weather feel so hot?

I can assure you that it is absolutely not just sweating. Literally, it is the cold sweat that made the back of the head feel a crisis situation after receiving unusual gazes.

Why are you sweating? The more you look at it, the more frustrating it becomes. I don’t know what mistake I made!

We had only exchanged a few words, but when she suddenly burst into tears, from Junon’s point of view, she couldn’t understand what was going on at the time.

─That bastard…?

─You dare… Who are you ringing?

—Pli Sghr. Dzugi Zunu.

‘Ugh… What are you asking me to do, really?’

Sylvia’s fans were filled with their stinging eyes, still stimulating Junon’s sweat glands.

Her cause is this girl who is crying right now but not at all in her heart.

‘Is this the right way to react…?’

Actually, Sylvia only got nervous in front of Junon, but she never tried to cry.

Someone gave me that advice, so I cried as I was told to do.

-‘Listen up, Sylvia. If Junon tries to take you away, just cry.’

It was advice from none other than Sylvia’s first same-s*x friend, Hena.

‘Henna, am I doing well…?’

The time is today, and the time goes back to about 3 hours ago.
