Chapter 195

I thought it was like this (3)

“Are you talking about repairs? If you have clothing that needs repairs, please pass it on to the laundry manager. I will tell you separately.”

“No. I’m going to fix it myself. To practice.”

“...do you have any hobbies like mending?”

When I stopped by the Ophelis Hall after finishing the monster ecology class, the maids seemed to have plenty of room as soon as the urgent work was done.

It is usually the busiest right after school starts. Once the students settle into the bachelor’s degree again to some extent and begin to lead a stable life, the maids’ work will return to the set routine again.

The chaos right after school started was quickly settled, and now he used to greet me with a relaxed expression.

“Do you really need to do it yourself? From our point of view, an increase in one or two mended garments doesn’t make a huge difference in our workload.”

“No, thank you, but you can’t come to the Ophelis Hall every time and ask for all the minor repairs. To save my time, I have to do simple things myself. It’s too far from here.”

The rose garden is one of the pride of Ophelis Hall.

Not only roses, but all kinds of flowers were swaying pleasantly in the cool early autumn wind.

The campus has a quiet atmosphere characteristic of late afternoon. As if enjoying the strangely exhausted feeling, several students were walking through the rose garden and photosynthesising like plants.

In the meantime, the maid Jean Bell seems to be checking whether the garden is well maintained. He was walking around the garden in a rather stern position, looking dissatisfied with the leaves of an under-pruned shrubbery.

If you were managing the inside of the Ophelis Hall, it would be difficult to talk to you. Before that, the entrance itself was a torment.

Fortunately, it was outside, so we could talk about our business easily.

“There are a lot of clothes that are going to be discarded. Most of them are for internal staff, so they’re women’s clothes, but... I don’t think there’s any problem with simple repair practice.”

“If you’re going to throw it away anyway, can I take some?”

“Yeah, but it’s a bit too far to carry them all... Also, it’s a very strange sight to go home carrying a lot of women’s clothes, so I’ll instruct my subordinates to deliver them later. Can you think of about ten pieces?”

“That’s enough. Thank you for your concern.”

“It’s not a big deal.”

The only skill that needs to be trained to make a handmade bow is repair.

The skill of making a handmade bow will open in earnest only when it is at a level that can easily be done with simple fabric or leather repair.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

Practice is enough if you take the time to do it, but the fact that you don’t know how long it will take is heartbreaking.

“Have you eaten? There is an internal banquet today to celebrate the opening of school. The hall on the 2nd floor is open, so you can eat and go. I will inform the staff.”

“No, it’s okay. I said we’d have dinner at the camp. It’s a bit like eating first and going home without saying anything.”

“...”

When I said that, Bell opened his curious eyes again and looked at me.

These days, it seems that the technology to read the subtle facial expressions of all expressionless people is increasing.

Like Lucy, Belle... Even people who aren’t good at expressing their emotions will be subtly exposed if they change their minds.

Lucy always feels dazed and mindless, and Bell always feels calm and calm, so the texture between the two is strangely different.

However, it is the same as the fact that if you look closely, you will somehow notice it.

“What.”

“...yes?”

“No. You were looking at me with a complicated and subtle expression.”

“Oh, you mean me? Excuse me if I looked like that. I’m sorry.”

“No, I don’t care what you make of your face, but I don’t want to apologize... I just wanted to because I had a business to do.”

To that, Bell responded with a look of perplexity.

“Oh, no, it’s not like that... However, you should pay more attention to your facial expressions. You shouldn’t be neglecting your impressions all the time, but it seems that I’ve become a bit lax when I feel that way. Poker face is the basic of basics, but .”

“That’s a bit too much to worry about. There’s no need to worry about it all.”

“That’s right. Master Ed can read people’s faces well, so maybe that’s why it feels that way.”

Bell closed his eyes softly and spoke as if lamenting.

“However, it only made me feel vaguely aware that Master Ed was living with Ms. Yenika...”

“...Why do you feel sick again?”

“I know it’s Ojirya, but it’s because I’ve been helping Ms. Yenica in her life ever since she came to Sylvania and had a hard time adjusting to it.”

Bell spoke elegantly with a clean body, without changing his or her posture.

“At the time, I was a senior maid, and now that I am a maid chief, my stance has changed a lot. However, the feeling of immeasurable remains unchanged.”

“At first, she was from the countryside and had such a good life force, so it seems like she would have been generously covering herself even without the help of the maids.”

“It is, but if you feel uncomfortable or need anything while living, please contact us. The Ophelis Hall always purchases a large amount of materials, so there are a lot of things left over or thrown away.”

Thank you very much, but Bell and Ophelis have already been getting a lot of help.

If you rely on outside help for everything you need in life, you won’t be able to solve it on your own when an emergency arises.

So, for now, I responded to Bell’s favor with only a thank you note.

“Looking at the Ophelis Hall, it must be crazy just to manage it. Lucy?”

“You haven’t come home since you went out in the morning. You’re probably taking a nap somewhere in a beautiful place. Will you ever meet Miss Lucy?”

“No, I was just asking how you’re doing. If you’re not in the room, you might be at the camp.”

“You must have had a lot of hardships during the school opening ceremony. However, first of all, you are the chief of all Sylvania. There are a lot of things to look forward to. The accumulated demerit points are insignificant.”

A rare genius who will never appear again at the Sylvania Academy. It is truly an honorable place.

However, at the same time, Lucy also has the rare stigma of being the recorder for the most points in the Ophelis Hall.

Cumulative penalty points that it is difficult to exceed 200 points even if you live as a bullshit throughout the school year... Lucy is over 1000 points by herself. The penalty points are just as great as the grades, so it is taking the overwhelming No. 1 spot.

However, the problem is that he cannot control Lucy with only the disadvantages from the penalty points.

Gradually, life penalty points directly affect grades, but her overwhelming grades are not enough to overturn with life penalty points.

“Actually, someone else has a business. I have something to tell you.”

“Are you talking about the Ophelis Hall? Actually, Master Ed is familiar with the students who use the Ophelis Hall. If you tell us separately, we will call you.”

“No, that’s okay. I’m not someone to call. I’ll just leave a letter and go. It’s a difficult person to meet.”

“...?”

*”So, you finally decided to go to the Cedric’s Monastery?”

“Some say that Princess Persica is coming, and there are things that I have to talk to Saint Clarisse seriously.

When Ed Rothtaylor returned to camp, Yenika had finished preparing dinner and was sitting by the bonfire reading an elemental book.

When Yenika manages the camp or does basic housework, she usually puts her hair in a braid and rolls her arms...

It was a strangely different feeling from when I was normally dressed in school uniform and was a graceful senior in the grade, so many students were surprised to see Yenica shopping in the living wing.

It’s different from when I was living in the Ophelis Hall with subsidized living. If you want to cover yourself up, you have to be busy every time, so you can’t live with just the princess in a fairy tale anymore.

Watching Yenika ponder what to buy for daily necessities or how to handle ingredients... Bachelor’s students have a strange feeling as if a character from a fairy tale came out of reality.

Yenika really liked the situation.

It is because he has lived in front of himself, refusing the favors of those who flirt with him even in his hometown of Pulan.

“So I went to the Ophelis Hall to tell St. Clarisse, but it was not easy to meet him in person. I only left a letter to Belle.”

“A monastery... a monastery...”

Yenika repeated that a few times with the book open on her lap.

Tanya, who has stayed at the Cedric’s Monastery for a few days, must have had a lot to say, but Yenica doesn’t know what Cedric’s Monastery is like.

However, they only know that it is a sacred sanctuary on the sea, which is located along the western coast of the Empire.

Still, there is a characteristic clean image that comes from the word ‘monastery’. The first thing that comes to mind is the priests sitting aloof from Cepa and receiving the will of the gods. There’s nothing particularly dangerous about it, it just feels like a terribly boring and quiet place.

After thinking about such an image, Yenika finally smiled as good as her.

“I’ll have to go back if I need to... But Ed, if you go so far in the middle of the semester, isn’t it too hard to follow the bachelor’s curriculum?”

“I’m only going for a week, but it’s not that critical. I’m going to make some preparations ahead of time.”

“That’s right. But what is a business for Saint Clarisse? It’s a personal business for that great saint, something great...”

Alchemists often have strange pride or confidence in their inventions. In fact, most inventors who seek innovation are all alike.

These are the ones who show more ugliness as if their pride is scratched when their inventions put in their efforts are ignored.

I wonder if there’s no difference in being called Petriciana, or I wanted to show the efficacy of the drug to Jenica, who told me to bring back such a reagent.

The situation in which Patriciana secretly poured reagents into a bucket of drinking water and ran away... is easily inferred.

“Patriciana... Senior...!”

Yenica supported Ed’s body and called out his name in a resentful tone.

A bunch of tomboys. In fact, students who are interested in alchemy are often given such nicknames. I feel even more resentful when I became the victim myself.

I feel like I should express my dissatisfaction later, but for now, the first thing to do is to fix Ed, who seems to be having a hard time.

I thought I had to wipe off the sweat first, so I was about to bring the cloth I used as a towel.

Ed’s hand gripped Yenika’s wrist tightly.

Yenica felt an electric current running through her body, and swallowed her breath.

“Eh, Ed...?”

“Whoa... Huh... Wait, I think I’m in a bit of a bad mood. Yenika.”

“Uh, yeah. It looks like that! I’ll bring you something to wipe off your sweat!”

Ed Roth Taylor’s mental power has already far surpassed the level of many students.

Just because he’s been hit by a drug that induces drunkenness and loses self-control doesn’t mean he’s the type of person who’s going to break down. Rather, he is a boy who will overcome if he overcomes the energy of the reagent.

Nevertheless, the fact that it is difficult does not change.

“For now... it’s getting a little hard right now. Stay by my side... If you lose consciousness, the only person who can help you is you.”

Yenika rolled her eyes and shook more loudly than usual. From the point of view of Yenika, who is well aware of the efficacy of the reagent, every word of Ed’s current state is too fatal.

Above all, Ed is a boy who has always been indifferent and blunt for Yenika.

There are only a handful of enemies who actively revealed their inner side or came close to them. Ed’s blunt temperament was also a favorite of Yenika, so there was no big emotional conflict.

If you think that Ed likes to show his heart without adding or subtracting, it’s a fatal blow for Yenika, who is not immune to dating, even for a girl of that age.

Just imagining it made her breathing quicker, and Yenika had to somehow control her eyes, which were trying to spin around at will.

“Eh, Ed...! This, first... wipe off the sweat... ya...”

– swish

Before Yenika could finish speaking, Ed swung Yenika’s wrist and sat him next to me.

Yenika, who restlessly settled on the grass, felt her body like a fluttering feather.

It was Ed’s gestures that always treated Yenika gently and caring for her... The mass of my body, which always felt heavy, was only this much. My heart pounded and beat once at the very realistic difference in strength.

love and be loved cared for and cared for.

Since it was the whole life of Yenika, who has only exchanged warm and heartfelt relationships, the gesture of grabbing her and pulling her away while ignoring her opinions is inevitably embarrassing.

Ed is not in a position to be considerate of Yenika. While somehow enduring the surge of reagent energy, Yenica’s wrist was broken and held tight.

Yenika was drawn to her side, forced to sit down and grabbing her pounding heart.

Ed’s hand gestures as he swings Yenika without a single thought of consideration, and a strange palpitation rises.

My wrists are sorely sore. I feel like I’m constrained so hard that I can’t go anywhere. It’s a scary and scary situation no matter what anyone says, but paradoxically, my heart races as soon as that opponent becomes Ed. The strange feeling of being swayed at will, an unknown and immoral feeling rushes to me, but I can’t resist.

“Ugh...?!”

No, did you want to resist in the first place? To such self-reflection, Yenika cannot refute herself.

At some point, Jenica was also breathing heavily. My eyes widened slightly at the strange feeling I had felt for the first time in my life.

Still, you have to resist.

While pressing his face firmly with one palm, Ed catches the eye, who somehow endures the energy of the reagent.

Yenica’s face is already getting hot enough that she can’t lose to him, but she shouldn’t stand still.

First, check Ed’s condition, wipe off the sweat, and take him to the hut to rest. Then we have to talk about the reagents, set up an environment for the body to heal well, and even ask Bell for help.

A series of streams flowed through Yenika’s head.

No matter how much your opponent is Ed Roth-Taylor, for him, you have to be decisive.

let go of this hand it hurts so much it’s so scary right now Please be a little considerate.

First of all, I’m not going to do this. Listen to my story.

Yenica gave her strength and decided to call Ed.

“Hey, hey!”

The tone was off-putting due to tension. Her voice came out louder than expected, and Jenica herself was surprised.

“Wow!”

But there was no reply from Ed. Rather, he narrowed his forehead to see if the headache got worse at the call that was close to Yenica’s scream.

“Don’t raise your voice too high... My head hurts...”

“Ed, I’m not doing this...!”

“Just be still... stay by my side...”

Breathing in and out, Ed’s voice whispered. I felt like my brain was melting at the voice that immediately penetrated my ear, and the blood vessels running through Yenika’s face screamed.

“Uh...”

Eventually, Yenika was completely crushed by the momentum. Then he speaks in a voice that sounds like an ant crawling.

“Oh, okay... Yeah...”

The only solver who could overcome the situation, raised a white flag like that.

Not being able to ask anyone for help. To make matters worse, for some reason, the spirits don’t even respond. They are usually the spirits that have gathered around Yenica, but...

There was really no answer.

*“ ♪ ♬ ♩ ”

A private room specially prepared for Saint Clarisse on the top floor of the Ophelis Hall.

Even the general room is the Ophelis Hall, which is famous for its magnificent size, but when it came to the private room used by Saint Claris, half of the floor felt like a space for her.

Clarisse’s tiny body was lying on the bed full of antique lace decorations.

The only person in this Ophelis Hall who knows about her double life.

The maid, Belle Maia, was standing slightly next to her.

“You came late in the afternoon and delivered it to me.”

Clarisse, humming as if in a good mood, spread the stationery over her head and read it happily.

“They say that they will accompany you to the Cedric Monastery. It was really hard to attend the school events all day today, but it feels good to be rewarded!”

Clarisse had a happy face. It was a situation where he had to preside only for a prayer meeting for several days in the Cledric’s Monastery, where there was no such thing as pleasure, but if Ed accompanies him, the story is very different.

Unlike high-ranking clerics who, though faithful, have no interest in the sepa, and who only talk about the Bible all day... He is a good companion and has a personal favour.

Unlike what I was prepared for every time I went to the Cedric’s Monastery, I think I’ll be able to enjoy it quite a bit this year. At that thought, Clarisse got excited and spoke to Belle, who was standing next to him.

“You mean the Cedric Monastery? After all, it was time for a prayer meeting.”

“yes. Because I am the face of the Telos Church. No matter how much I was in Sylvania from this year on, I had to attend the prayer meeting. I also decided to give up a public vacancy at the bachelor’s degree.”

“By the way... Is it okay if I accompany you to the Cedric’s Monastery? As far as I know, Cedric’s Monastery...”

“Well, I have the authority... I can make any number of reasons to accompany them. I’m sure there won’t be any problems in the monastery.”

Clarisse was humming happily as she read the letter Ed had handwritten.

“Ed sunbaenim is a person with thorough self-management and strong self-control, right? So nothing else will happen in the monastery.”

At Clarisse’s words, who spoke so confidently, Bell had nothing to refute.

Ed Roth-Taylor is quick-witted and won’t try to make contact with the nuns more than necessary.

“Tomorrow, I will have to put in an inquiry to the academic department to put in a vacancy~.”

Waving her white feet, Clarissa smiled mischievously.

There was nothing to add to the happy appearance, so Bell just stood there quietly.
