Chapter 239

[ Episode 239. Graduation, Top and ]

Whoop!

The sword that struck me came to a sharp stop.

Soon after, I slowly finished the cut, put Galaksur back into the scabbard, and wiped away the sweat with the towel hanging on the wall.

Dawn training always unchanging.

It was a daily routine that I never skipped, even when I was homeless, even when I was homeless.

“Time is running out.”

Today is finally the day of the graduation ceremony.

The atmosphere, which had already been heated up with the thesis, was dampened and quieted during the holiday season at the beginning of the year.

Of course, it was only broken inside the academy, and it was still noisy outside, but it didn’t matter right away.

ding!

Just then, a message arrived on the tablet, and the sender was Vivian.

I’ve hardly ever had a conversation with Vivian on a tablet, so it’s a bit awkward.

“Have you already arrived?”

There are still 30 minutes left for the appointment time, aren’t you too excited?

Upon hearing Vivian’s message that she had arrived in front of the dormitory, she washed herself with water and came out.

Then, standing in front of the front door of the dormitory, Vivian was reflected in the dawn like a picture.

“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Vivian.”

“Hello Adrias.”

Is it because it’s graduation day?

It felt more sophisticated today.

We headed straight to the banquet hall where the graduation ceremony was held.

The graduation ceremony should have been quiet since it was held during the winter break before the freshman entrance ceremony and the spring tournament.

However, this year’s graduation ceremony was more enthusiastic than ever because last year’s schedule was slightly twisted due to the war.

“ah! Over there, Adrias-senpai!”

“Senior Adrias!”

The students who came back after enjoying a short vacation at the beginning of the year cheered when they saw me.

I know there was no culture of seeing off seniors who are graduating, but since it’s not vacation, there are a lot of people.

“Who is next to you?”

“You know that. Senior Vivian from the Faculty of Engineering.”

“Oh, the sword demon Vivian?”

It seemed that Vivian had been given the title of Sword Demon before she knew it.

The guy who was famous for his title of sword demon was a dead mountain to me, and this kind of coincidence happens.

I was walking while being greeted by countless juniors, but there was no conversation between me and Vivian.

To lighten the mood a little, I decided to ask something I had been curious about before.

“Vivian.”

“huh.”

“I don’t think you answered the question last time, but are you still not going to tell me about your career path?”

“.......”

She walked silently without answering.

It doesn’t seem like there’s a plan if you look roughly, but I don’t know why you’re hiding it.

Skill is also skill, and at least because of the relationship with her, I wanted to bring her into our family, but I couldn’t understand what was inside.

“If you don’t have a place to choose from, how about Cromwell?”

“......what?”

“If it had been in the past, I would not have been able to recommend it because I was embarrassed to go somewhere, but now I have an assortment suitable for my title. Of course, there is still a long way to go, but I would like to go that long way with Vivian.”

Stand tall!

Suddenly Vivian stopped.

I thought for a moment that I had made a mistake, but then I saw Vivian’s reddened face and smiled faintly.

“Vivian?”

“......really?”

“Yes, really. Is there a place where you have already decided on a career path......”

“No.”

Seeing her reaction as she cut my words like a knife, I was certain of something.

Now that I see it, was the plan we had decided to come into our family?

Seeing her red face made me want to invite her sooner.

“Did I invite you too late? I should have invited you a little earlier.”

“I haven’t decided anything!”

Vivian shouted in an urgent tone, probably misunderstanding my words.

Thanks to that, the juniors who cheered at us looked at us with their eyes wide open.

“Then will you accept my offer?”

“huh.”

Vivian nodding with a flushed face was cute.

Even with such a cute reaction, you can trust her because her skills are amazing.

In fact, I think I would have been rather disappointed if she had chosen a different path.

“Hey Adrias. It’s nice to have a date here, but then it’ll be late.”

A classmate who was passing by smiled and passed along with the crowd.

Vivian’s complexion visibly hardened at his joke, and I just ignored it.

“Don’t worry, let’s go.”

“Love......”

“Vivian?”

I had to wait for a while for Vivian, who was frozen as if she had suffered a brain freeze.

As soon as I tried to walk a little to enter the castle, Amy walked out.

“I’m here?”

“uh. Vivian came too.”

“Hello Miss Vivian. Haven’t you been doing well since we broke up at the imperial palace last time?”

When Amy greeted her warmly, Vivian nodded with a slightly brightened expression.

“huh. how have you been doing.”

“But I didn’t know you would come with me. You graduated, but why did you come with me...”

Amy looked at me with a sinister look.

What do you mean?

“Vivian is the same family from now on.”

“also! I was wondering when the nobleman, who has been so interested in women since he was little, would bring a maid!”

“What are you talking about? Vivian is Cromwell’s knight. Perhaps in the future, if I create a knights order, I will become the leader of the knights...”

“Guard knights.”

Vivian suddenly interrupted.

I nodded my head at a position I hadn’t even thought of.

“okay. I will serve as an escort driver. Coincidentally, you also needed an escort, and it went well.”

“......What, weren’t you getting married?”

“Don’t talk nonsense from earlier, go in and talk.”

I am writing a novel by myself.

It just makes the atmosphere awkward.

I glanced at Vivian’s eyes, but she didn’t seem to have any thoughts.

“Vivian, please go in.”

“......”

“......Vivian?”

Taking Vivian, who had been standing still with such a serious expression on her face for a while, and entering the castle, a rugged view was revealed.

I unknowingly said something at the sight that seemed to be really practical.

“It’s too desolate.”

“yes? I haven’t been living in the lord’s castle for a while, so I’ll decorate it a little when I’m done with urgent work.”

“Miss Maria?”

“I am busy with work right now. why?”

“I followed you around every day, but I didn’t see you, so I asked.”

“brother. Don’t spread saliva all over the place. You get tired later.”

“What are you talking about again?”

Seeing that I talk nonsense a lot, I think I’m still worth living.

Entering the lord’s office, we settled down and drank tea.

I don’t have a taste for tea, so I don’t drink it often, but after a long time drinking Rastilia tea, it wasn’t bad.

“How is everyone else doing?”

“I haven’t seen Mr. Hagendahl since he moved here. I heard your brother asked for something?”

“uh.”

Isn’t Noah’s treatment over yet?

It’s taking longer than expected. I’ll have to go and check it out myself.

“What about Maximin?”

“Did you have an orchard?”

“Don’t joke.”

“Really!”

The strongest swordsman in the human world is an orchard...

I wondered what kind of waste of manpower this was, but there was nothing to say as he was an ambiguous person to wield at will.

Even if you just protect Amy here, you’ll be paying for the meal.

“Is Isabelle with you?”

“ah! Isabelle said that she should visit her brother, so go and see her.”

“sister?”

“uh. Sister Isabelle.”

To call a vampire who is hundreds of years old sister is this guy, too.

Well, if you look at it from the outside, you’re right, so I have nothing to say.

After chatting for a while, I brought up the story of the disappearance I had heard from Smith a while ago.

“Oh, I saw and heard that. First of all, I left it to Maria unnie because I was too busy. But yesterday or so, the report came in again, but it seems that things didn’t go well.”

“Are you missing again?”

“no. The people I sent this time said that they came back, but they passed out as soon as they returned and couldn’t wake up.”

This smells a bit.

There is a high probability that the future will be distorted due to the butterfly effect due to my actions

.

Is it the work of the black magician?

It would be nice if it wasn’t a big deal, but the anxiety doesn’t go away as long as Amy is here.

I’m in a tower soon and it might take a few months before I get out.

In the meantime, I didn’t want to leave any element of anxiety behind.

“Amy.”

“huh?”

“I’ll go see it.”

What was the reason for your strength?

You should use this.
