Brain opened his eyes.

Brain wakes up after seeing Philbus and our faces.

"... oh, am I...?

"You were lying in this classroom. There you are, with Liz."

After hearing Philbs' explanation, Brain turned to Liz.

Liz fainted deeper than Brain, but he still hasn't answered Hulin's call.

"Brain, what were you doing here?

"... um..."

Brain began to talk about his memories in an unexpectedly clear tone, pointing his fingers to the floor.

I saw her there.

"Oh, wait a minute."

Philbus interrupts.

"Why were you walking around outside in the first place? What were you doing?

"... oh, I'll tell you from the beginning. It's an undead extermination. When I was in the dorm, I noticed a strange noise. That's what happens when I look outside."

I'm just trying my arm.

"That's the place."

Brain nodded without nausea. I want to try my attacking magic - if Brain thinks so, it feels impossible.

"So, what's the matter?

"... we defeated the zombies and skeletons that appeared... and found and destroyed the magical factions that were calling them."

Philbus rounded his eyes to Brain's words.

"You!?

"Yes... I think there are probably more than one, but one..."

Brain continued to talk indifferently without feeling particularly proud.

"Then I went back to the dormitory, and I looked up at the school building and I saw a girl walking down the hall."

So Brain moved his gaze.

"That's Liz, isn't it? I didn't remember my name, but I knew I was a classmate. If you're being chased by the undead, I went into the school building to help you."

"... so?

"I came to this floor, but there was no sign of her in the hallway. So I looked in turn at the classroom, and I saw it here."

"Was Liz fainted at that time?

"Er... I see. At least he was down. I don't know if he passed out."

"Don't you see? Didn't you get close?

"No, I went into the classroom to see what was going on..."

So Brain closed his eyes before continuing.

"Someone attacked me."

"Were they attacked?

"Yes, someone with a black body - and no face."

"Did he do it?

Brain nodded with a slightly regrettable expression.

"Yes, I've practiced bodily arts quite a bit, but the opponent was better at it. I finally get one shot in the stomach, and I realize this."

"I see....."

That's my situation.

"I see... can I ask you one question?

"Go ahead."

"We came to this classroom because we had lighting on in front of it. And there was a hard lock on the door. Did you do it?

"... no? I didn't do that...?

"I see....."

Philbus kept quiet.

From what we're talking about right now - it was Brain who did these magic tricks.

But why did you do that?

I mean...

In the first place, why did you just let Brain pass out?

I suppose that's because you don't have to kill him. I don't think I need to be forgiving.

Plus writing on hard locks.

It feels as if it protects the Stunned Brains - even if it makes them aware of their existence.

Hulin broke the silence in the quiet classroom.

"Professor Philbs. Liz woke up."

"... ah, that... me...?

Liz's eyes were tingling.

Philbus stared into Liz's face.

"Are you okay, Liz?

"Ah, yes, it's okay...."

"I'm sorry, what were you doing here?

"Um...."

Liz pressed her head with both hands in a hurry.

"Um, I was walking through the school building that night, and suddenly I came out of the undead! So I ran into this place in a hurry!

"So, I stood in this classroom... Brain seems to have been attacked by someone, but so are you?

"Eh, to someone....?

Liz twisted her neck.

"I don't know. I lost consciousness sometime... maybe I was scared and fainted..."

"Well, nobody saw it in this classroom, right?

"Yes, that's right... no one's seen me since I entered the school building..."

I see.

Philbus nodded.

At that time, I saw a suspicious expression on Laura's face. It seemed like she was thinking something, but Philbs put the curtain down before Laura opened her mouth.

"Almost got it. Let's talk about the details later. Is there any pain in your body? It's too late. I'll be back today."

That's what Philbs said and stood up.

As we got out of the school building, the number of undead wandering around was considerably lower. We'll be able to take down the undead before it's too far.

Philbus saw us.

"Hulin and I will continue our undead defeat. Can you guys just go back to the dorm?

"... I can do it too."

Brain shook Philbus' head.

"I can't count on the help of the one who fell down there. Get some rest today."

Philbus and Hulin left as they were.

Back to the dorm, Laura and I split up and Brain and I walk to the dorm.

"... I've shown you an embarrassing appearance..."

Poppy Brain said that.

"... you don't have to worry about it, do you? There's nothing I can do if I get attacked from the dark."

Brain didn't seem convinced to follow me like that.

"Alberto, why are you there?

"I helped. Philbus came to get me."

"... that's the hero of Lake Georgia..."

"No, it wasn't just me... it was Brain and Sirless. You didn't go first."

"Is that so...."

Yeah, Brain twisted his neck after nodding.

"What about Salles?

"Salles says he has a headache and is resting in his room."

"... Surrez? I wonder if it's okay...."

That said, Brain was a friend of Sirless's. You won't have to worry about it.

Brain blurred.

"... let's go and see what happens..."

On arriving at the dorm, we escorted him to Surrez's room.

... I'm not close to Surrez, so I don't have to go, but I was somehow washed away.

Brain knocks on the door.

"Brain. Sir, are you awake?

I don't think anything happened in the middle of the night, but I didn't feel so insane because the whole dorm was scrambling because of the undead noise.

When the door closes, the door opens.

Hmm... What's the matter, Brain?

A tired, less presumptuous Surrez appeared from the room.

"... do you have a headache?

"Oh, yeah! I really have a headache! I've been asleep!

Surrez looked uncomfortable and opened his head.

"Looks like you're in trouble, outside."

"Yeah, that's why they sent us out."

"That's what you called me! I'm sorry, I can't talk much!

That said, Salles lowered his head to Brain.

"So, did it go away?

"... no problem"

"Oh, good, good. You and Mr. Alberto can afford it, can afford it!

That's how Salles smiled and frowned.

"Sorry, I still have a headache. Can I get some sleep? Tell me more tomorrow."

"Okay."

Well then, good night ~

That's how Salles closed the door to the room.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

I decided to attend the academy the next day.

That noise. I was wondering what would happen...

Apparently, the teachers were playing dumb, and they couldn't afford to make the decision to suspend school. In the meantime, I opened the classroom to all self-study.

That day.

From now on, at lunch, Kirilla brought her friendly nobles to my seat.

"Hi, Alberto. Shall we go to the cafeteria?

The words echoed another voice.

"Ahh, um, soo, soo, sorry!

A tense voice jumped in towards the crowd of nobles.

Everyone's gaze sees the Lord of Voices.

I was standing there.

It was Laura with her face turned pale. Laura looked straight at me and went on like this.

"I'm sorry I interrupted! Ah, Mr. Alberto! Could you spare some time!?
