Arc 6 - Zephyr's Grand Information Explosion!

Chapter 295 -

RING

I awoke with the ring sound.

For the love of god, just who is that restless fellow to send a message in the early Monday morning, even before the alarm bell could rung? —- or so were my thoughts but it was hard to go against the drowsiness seizing me.

I succumbed to my drowsiness until the 6:30 a.m. alarm I had set up goes up, making a shrill sound.

“kuh, couldn't it have rung a bit later…”

There’s nothing more tortuous than being forced to wake up just when you’re about to dive into your sweet sleep.

I felt even more disheartened considering that now the drowsiness would haunt me for the whole day.

Deciding on to take a nap somewhere in the afternoon, I urged my body to get up.

“Right, l didn’t check who had the message earlier. I will make sure whoever sends them pays for it along with the interest.”

I took the <smartphone> in my hand while wondering how I should make them pay for their atrocity.

I was still feeling sleepy. I forced my body to move with heavy eyelids to check out which damn person was so keen on losing their peace.

—-The sender's name shown was “Saturn-kun”.

“Spartan. I’m going to make him work like a horse today!”

It was the moment I decided I am gonna give him hell-mode training today.

I tossed my <Smartphone> on the side and began my preparation for the morning, I will just check the text later.

I was given a room on the first floor of an aristocrat dorm, and the whole room was basically for me to use. As the name implies, only the aristocrat lives in the aristocrat dorm so the rooms were quite big, and I was alone in one such big room. Speak about luxury.

Excellent students like Hannah also get one room for themselves, though the rooms in the ordinary girl’s dormitory are smaller than here.

The usual trend was to share the room between 2-4 students. With how big the Labyrinth academy was and due to the boarding system, it was the norm to have roommates.

That’s why students who have the whole room to themselves are the target of students' envy, after all, who don’t want a room just for themselves.

That being said, often there are students who can't cope alone.

Knock-Knock

“--------Zephyr-kun, are you awake–?”

A familiar voice called out to me after a rhythmic knock on the door.

The person was Hannah, my childhood friend, who had been with me from the <Nameless Beginner Village>, in other words ever since I have come to the world of <Dungeon Activity>.

I was just done with wearing my uniform so I directly greeted her.

“Hmm~, Good morning Hannah~”

“Good morning—- hmm, you seem like you haven’t slept for the whole night, zephyr-kun.”

“An early bird disturbed my sleep with a chat message~, my head hurts and I can’t even keep my eyelids open for long.”

“Oh my, you have my condolences. Do you want to eat breakfast? I have made sandwiches.”

“I will! I always have space in my stomach for Hannah’s cooking even if it is bloating.”

“O, Oh? Ehehe.”

My eyes were snapped open at the invitation for Hannah’s cooking. Even if the hell breaks loose, it’s impossible for me to miss Hannah’s cooking. If my early morning was like hell, then Hannah's breakfast was like a stroll in paradise!

That being said, isn’t the development a bit too extreme like a tug of war to drop the curtain on this colourful morning.

Hannah began her preparation to serve breakfast while blushing at my remark.

Hannh often visited my room so she had already known which thing was where and was familiar with the layout. She washed her hands, set up the tableware with smooth movements and served the sandwiches. Today’s menu was egg sandwich and pork-cutlet sandwich. She had firmly grasped how the stomach of a 16 year old boy works.

Hannah was having a ham and lettuce sandwich between. It also looked equally delicious.

“First, thank you Hannah for making the breakfast, and bon appetit!”

“Fufu, enjoy them to your heart’s content.”

I first took a bite of the egg sandwich. Hmm, it was delicious.The amount of mayonnaise in the egg was just exquisite. I feel like she had already learned about my preference.

It was down to nothing in no time, I began munching down on the next sandwich while feeling the lingering aftertaste left behind that made me take a faint sigh.

Woah, that’s also crazy delicious. I guess she must have immediately stored them in the item box after making them as the cabbage stuffed between was still crispy, the pork cutlet dressing too was equally crispy. The meat juice of warm, juicy meat immediately burst in my mouth as soon as I took a bite and my words, that burst of flavour was so heavenly. Handmade, the sandwiches gave the firm feeling of being made personally from starting bite to end.

“So good, but it's gone……”

“Fufu, I’m glad it fancies your taste. I will make them again next time.”

“Yes, Please Mam! And thank you for the food.”

“You're welcome. I hope my crude dishes make your stomach fill.”

Hannah, noticing the wave of melancholy that washed over me seeing the empty plate, promised to make them again next time. I thanked her for her generosity.

Hannah, She’s seriously a good girl!

“Speaking of, Will Zephyr-kun come to the guild after classes?”

Hannah asked while cleaning the dishes right after we finished eating. I replied while going through my preparation for the morning.

“Yup. I will be a bit late since I have business with my classmates but I will be there since I also have to pass the information to members.”

“Then I will also visit the guild.”

Hannah was the only one who was in a different major compared to the rest of <Eden> members so the time shecould show up in the guild was very few. Though she seemed to have enough time to have breakfast with me just like now.

Additionally, She also seemed to be quite busy in the <Production Department>.

Handling requests from here and there, and not just of students, even teachers had come to rely on her. So it wasn’t just me but even Hannah was so busy with various things that she didn’t have time to often show up in the guild.

Now, she only has enough time to show up on weekends mostly.

“Are you done Zephyr-kun? Can I use the washroom now?”

“Yeah, I’m done so you can use it.”

On the occasion Hannah made breakfast, she would often head to her department building directly instead of revisiting her girl’s dormitory. So her daily necessities like toothbrush etc are arranged in my washroom.

We also don’t have much time to take it easy in the morning either so while Hannah is busy washing dishes, I would use the washroom in the meantime and when I’m done, then it would be her turn to use it. It was the tactic-understanding between us.

Maybe that’s how it would have felt if I had a roommate too, I completed my preparation as such thought passed in my mind. Now I just have to wait for Hannah and then leave.

“Sorry for the wait, Zephyr-kun.”

“It’s fine, let’s go.”

We left the room once Hannah was also done with her preparation.

On this note, it was Hannah’s job to lock the door. Though I also tried to take on this job, she wouldn’t just listen to me for some reason in that regard so I could only leave it to her.

Like this, Another morning to pass. This was my recent lifestyle which had become a part of my life.

I left the aristocrat dormitory along with Hannah and accompanied her until it was time to part our ways to our respective dormitory. It was like a page of youth that many desires.

Albeit, I was unaware of the countless gazes that were watching us from the shadows till the end.
