(I didnāt edit these 2 chapters too well as I am having fever due to covid vaccine)
On the night of the first day of the school competition, I came to a restaurant near the arena in the center of the battlefield.
Lara called out to everyone in the village of Etoile and invited me to have dinner with her, so I booked the shop.
Actually, this is a restaurant run by Torneās apprentice, who was told to rely on me if something happened.
He was willing to charter a room if he could get along with Astel Shokai. Moreover, he told me that he would treat me to a meal, but Iād rather pay it as a charter fee.
āEveryone hasnāt met in a long time!ā
āItās been a long time since I saw everyone.ā
āHmm, nostalgicā
Grace smiles softly, and Chloe, who is always expressionless, has a rare smile.
Lara was smiling when she saw us.
And [Saint] is smiling at Lara-chan.
so,ćTruthful saint] Cecilia was also following Lara for some reason.
āUfufu, I canāt let my cute Lara go out alone ~ā
Certainly, I was worried that Lara, who had no fighting power, would go out alone at night.
ā¦ā¦ It doesnāt matter if the problem will be solved when the saint joins her.
Originally, a saint is a person who can specially handle āsacred magicā that can only be handled by heroes. Although it is sufficiently nonstandard, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has almost no combat power because it is limited to auxiliary magic and recovery magic, unlike heroes who can exercise offensive magic without restrictions.
Thatās why itās this number of escorts.
As was the case when I met them earlier, there were many signs of the saint being watched from the surroundings.
Whether it is blocking both energy and magical power, it is very thin and there will always be escorts that you will not notice if you are not careful.
ā¦ā¦ If you knew that and still came with Lara, youāre a strong person.
When I was excited with my childhood friends I met after a long time, a meal that gave off a fragrant smell was brought in.
Although it is a battleground with only rugged bars and food stalls, this restaurant has many relatively good dishes to differentiate it from other restaurants. To the last, though.
First of all, there are no menus that use vegetables at the bar, so it can be said that it is a store for everyone just because vegetables are used.
While enjoying the first vegetables since I came to this town, I talked to Grace who sat next to me.
Grace had somehow a shadow on her expression, and she said she had told me something earlier.
āGrace, how about your school?ā
I lightly talk about it. I wish I could say something nifty at such times, but Iām not very good at that kind of thing.
āSirius ⦠well, I wonder. I entered the B class as a result of the special training with Sirius, but after all everyone is very strong. Not as much as Sirius.ā
Graceās smile was a little lonely.
āNo way, not only Luke but also Sirius is the representative of the school competition ⦠No, itās natural because itās you. Rather, the problem is that that idiot has become the representative.ā
āI didnāt think Luke would be a brave man ⦠it seems like there has been a lot in the last few months ā¦ā
āHeās weak ⦠After pulling out the holy sword, he got arrogant about it. Heās a kid ā¦ā
Grace fanned the water and laid the glass roughly on the desk.
āThat idiot. The brave man was agitated by the people around him, and suddenly he became stronger and none of his seniors could win. Immediately after I entered the school, I tried hard to catch up with Sirius and trained every day. Iām playing with almost no class anymore? The instructor doesnāt say anything. Why is my uncle? Do you think your aunt paid the entrance fee? Iām so upset that I canāt say anything anymore. ā (I couldnāt understand this)
I remember what Luke was like today. Yeah, itās easy to imagine.
āIs that so ⦠Luke must be worried about various things ā¦ā
āI know that, I know, but Iām angry! Sirius, beat him up!ā
āBeat ⦠Iāll make an effort, but heās a brave man ā¦ā
āFufu, Sirius can afford it!ā
Grace hits my back. Iām glad she spit out her complaints and got well, but sheās not drunk, right? Itās water, isnāt it?
With a bitter smile, I left Grace to her own devices.
āSacred magicā is said to be the strongest magic. Only heroes and saints can handle it.
There is little information, but even that little information is that it is the strongest magic among others.
I donāt feel like losing easily, but Iām not sure I can win. Even in todayās battle, I couldnāt see the bottom of Luke at all.
āLuke has certainly become stronger, but against Sirius ,Luke, who is drowning in such power, canāt win that easily.ā
Before I knew it, Chloe, who was sitting next to me without any sound, opened her mouth.
āBoth are overpowered.ā
Receiving a straight line of sight without any doubt from the two, I involuntarily scratched their cheeks.
āGive it your all Sirius and Luke!ā
āFufu, Sirius and Brave, we are with you, so you can rest assured that you can fall down. Iāll take care of you.ā
Lara and even Cecilia were gathering with a smile.
āYeah, leave Luke to me. It was just a little bit, but Iām still Lukeās former master.ā
Letās give Grace a whisper to the stupid disciples who are so worried about us.
Looking sideways at Grace, who is lonely and drunk (?), I decided to do my best for tomorrowās battle.
