"—Well then, that concludes homeroom. You must be tired in this new environment, but please prepare for your classes individually" The elderly teacher announced the end of homeroom. The tense atmosphere was already gone. After hearing information that would make their hearts flutter about what was to come—self-introductions, committee introductions, and such—everyone had lost the fear and oppressive feeling they had felt earlier. Perhaps the homeroom teacher's gentle atmosphere was also a…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
Royal Lytisia Academy, a certain classroom in the noble wing. A space where new students gathered. Most of them were strangers to one another, and with the new environment, a silence born of tension would normally permeate the air, but in this particular classroom, a different kind of silence filled the space. Into this strange atmosphere, another new student was about to set foot. He too was one who savored the tension characteristic of new students, but the moment he opened the door, the…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"I'm Kiril Geister, and I'll be in charge of this class. I'm also a graduate of this academy, so I'm your senior before being your teacher. Please feel free to talk to me. My subject is swordsmanship, and I'll be working you hard, so you better prepare yourself now, got it?" Homeroom time began, and the woman who introduced herself as Kiril started her self-introduction. Her hair was cut short, with absolutely no atmosphere of dressing up fashionably. She possessed a well-trained body visible even…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"So this is... the Knight Wing" After walking for quite a while, we finally arrived at our destination. The overall grounds are huge, so there's quite a distance between buildings too. At this rate, if we moved right before class starts, we wouldn't make it in time. Is this perhaps a scheme to ingrain the knight's practice of arriving five minutes early? It wouldn't be strange if there was actually such an intention. "I came here during the exam too, but that symbol really is…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"Um, it's been a while. Emma-san, you passed the exam too?" I opened my mouth while trying not to show the confusion I felt inside. There were mainly two reasons for this emotion. One was... well, last time. I got thoroughly scolded by Eleanore. If I carelessly made contact with Emma again and ended up restrained in unconsciousness, I really couldn't handle it. And the other reason was... with the protagonist Emma enrolling in the Knight Course, the story had truly deviated from its…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"Arcs... is there anything wrong?" Eleanore asks with a worried expression. Since earlier, she's been checking whether her appearance is in order so persistently it could be called excessive. Even she must be nervous after all. "Yes, there's absolutely no problem. It suits you very well, you know?" "Wha...! ...Again, saying such things..." She withdrew muttering while her ears turned red. After being a butler for five years, flattery comes naturally. Well, but this isn't flattery or…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
'───────────────' '──────────' '────────────────────' Inside my head, someone's voice echoes. Sweet, sticky, a voice that weaves between thoughts and binds them distortedly. If I relax and listen to it, there's a sense that my consciousness will sink endlessly. ...Huh, what was I doing again? Um... I can't really remember. The peculiar lethargy of having slept for a long time is blocking my…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
……… …… … "A-Arcs-kun!" "Um, Arcs-san... hello" When the exam ended and I left the arena and made it to the school gate, two voices called out my name. They were none other than Emma and Erett. "Ah, good work to both of you. Why are you here?" "We were waiting for you, Arcs-kun!" Emma came running over to me with quick steps... grabbed both my hands tightly, and showed a smile that bloomed like flowers. I was startled by the sudden close approach, but well, I didn't…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"We will now begin the knight cooperative exam between Squad 8 and Squad 27." Finally, this moment has arrived. In the arena where wooden fences, fake building structures resembling houses, and barrels are haphazardly placed, Emma, Erett, and I stand side by side. This is probably a battlefield simulating urban warfare. The location for combat in this exam is randomized. It's about seeing how you can move in sudden combat situations. And apparently the matchings are also completely…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"Um... my name is Erett. For this test... let's do our best, okay?" "Yeah yeah! Let's work hard together!!" Not long after I entered the room, another member also came into the room. Not a name I recognized. Probably a character who didn't appear in the main story. Until now, when meeting people, I hadn't really thought much about whether they were mob characters or not, but this time such a filter was unavoidably placed in my thoughts. All of this was caused by the girl enthusiastically…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
