"What? Reporting? '

"Yes."

The chief of the knights' office. Carambel uses the communications equipment attached to it to contact the Knights Leader on business trips.

The face was rugged and looked like something was bothering him.

"How was it, what about that girl?

"Clearly, the anomaly is too much. What can I do to raise a child like that..."

"Ha ha, still is"

The high laughing Knights leader leaks his voice as if he was convinced somewhere.

"... was a bit of an excellence in the magic exam. There was something eye-catching about its activation speed and operability, but I didn't think it was unusual because it was subordinate magic."

'Hmm... wasn't that out of hand?

"I don't know about that, but the swordsmanship mock battle that followed was brilliant. I didn't have an opponent for a second when it started. He seemed to have a lot of strength, like a noble family, but he couldn't even react and flew 300 meters."

'Oh, well. Yeah, no, you still weren't crazy in my eyes.'

Hearing the words of Carambel, who mechanically reports, the Knights Commander shows strength when he learns that he is far more abnormal than he expected. Carambel usually points that out, but he wasn't around now.

The sight that burned in my eyes was still out of my mind and out of my mind. Still, I would have come to make a proper report because I had unconsciously felt that I wanted my master, the Knights Commander, to tell me what it was like not to boil off in my heart right now.

"In that next practice exam, I showed strength beyond the 3rd level knight. If I hadn't come in to stop him, the knight I was dealing with could have been dead."

'Really... so you have those eyes?

"You don't see it, do you?

Carambel penetrates that there is no way you can see with this magic tool that only allows words to be exchanged with the Knights Commander who has said it as if you were seeing it.

"I think I've been your master for years. That's all I know. '

"Really...... then tell me. What the hell am I worried about?

'... if that's what you want to know, let that kid be alone in your hands'

"Huh?"

I thought it was something you could tell me. As a master and disciple, I have been taught various things for many years. I heard that I thought you could tell me the same thing this time, but the answer I returned was very unlikely to be the answer to telling me to be a teacher.

'You can't just be strong enough to teach people. It's not just the flesh, it's the spirit. Think for yourself what you're missing. "

"Hey, give me a minute! I don't care what they say all of a sudden..."

"You saw that kid fight and you remembered how he felt, didn't you? Then you can see it if you're with her. Besides, there's no one more competent than you to take care of her."

Hearing words that could also be expected of a master, the desire to live up to expectations and the desire to know how he felt pushed Carambel's back.

"... Got it. I'll take care of the boy knight education."

"Hmm. Bye. Oh, it's depressing... '

The chief of the knights thought of Semberua, who was going to head on, and hung up his correspondence as he melancholy.

And Carambel, left in the office of one knight captain, stood still and looked back at his heart.

What the hell am I not boiling down to...

"Yay, you passed."

Bulletin board stuck out at the entrance to the Knights School. There the names of the successful candidates were arranged with the Zlari. In it, my name was arranged. [M] But what bothers me is the letter written on it. What does that mean?

"Selected class?

Did that happen?

I've never heard of it...

"Well, the selected class."

"Oh, you've been clawed."

Two people who, unlike me, know what that means.

Claw bouncing? What does that... mean? I don't know those words.

"What's a selection class?

"Selection classes, so to speak, are classes that bring together peculiar people. Unlike others, individuals can receive instruction from different knights. Good for you."

So you're saying there's gonna be a dedicated knight? Can you give me individual guidance? Yay!

But don't worry about your mother's words. I wonder what that means? I didn't get an extra good impression from the way you put it...

"Is that a good thing?

"Well, that's true when it comes to good things, but I can't say it at all because it's often troublesome to have friends or to be jealous of other kids with peculiar abilities."

Trouble? That's brushing your teeth in the morning, right?

Um, I don't think it's a big deal.

"It is. That's a good thing."

I decided to think so positively. [M] Sometimes I didn't really know what my mother was talking about, and I didn't think it would be a big deal if something troublesome happened.

"Dick, come on. My fathers are alone from now on because it's time to go back to Sierra Village. You may be confused about the first time, but listen to your teacher and do your best."

"Yes! Dad!

"You'll miss me, but good luck. Have a proper meal and go to bed, okay? Looking forward to seeing Dick when he grows up."

"Yeah! I'll do my best!

All right, we'll do our best!

Let's study and train hard so that we can live up to the expectations of our fathers and, above all, be the Knights Leader, who is our dream.

That's how I started my new life with new feelings. It's a life where you break up with your parents and you don't even see Ray. Lots of anxiety, too. But I was excited to know what kind of life awaits me.

Such a new life marked the beginning. We still do not know what the consequences will be.

"... Ugh, lost again..."

After breaking up with my dads, I was lost again when I tried to make my way to the selection class. I was sure of that when I arrived in front of the pond again.

"Duh, what should I do... I'll be late again..."

Can someone help me, like yesterday?

Is anybody, anybody, not here?

There wasn't even a cat around looking all the way around.

Ugh, trouble...

I'm at least desperate to walk around with resistance, but I don't see anyone, and I can't leave the pond.

What's going on? I...

I can't believe myself. I can't believe I'm lost this way...

I wasn't lost in Sierra Village...

Why not?

Is it because you remembered the way?

Yeah, I guess so. If I remember well, I remember getting lost a lot when I was a little girl.

So my father found me, and he comforted me with my mother crying. I miss it.

"... not if you miss me, right? We need to do something... for now, we'll desperately learn the way later, and now... yes! Spatial skills!"

I activate my spatial skills with this. But not like Ray. Instead of the whole school, I don't even know the space around the pond. At best, I know about 10 meters around me.

I don't seem to have the talent for space-based skills. The skill level doesn't go up inside, and it hasn't even evolved in three years since they taught me. Normal skills that don't get this far are also rare. How the hell did Ray master this skill?

"I'm weak... I don't have the skills or the skills of a favor line, no people, my sense of direction is hopeless..."

For one thing, nothing seemed to break this situation.

You won't make it...

You can't give up, so it was me walking around afterwards, but it was that evening that I got into the selection class. If he hadn't come and picked me up worried about me, he would have wandered off forever. [M]

"Sorry for the inconvenience"

I bowed my head to the post. [M] I bowed my head, thanking him for taking me to class and for sending me to the front of the dorm room.

The chairman left with a bitter laugh.

"All right! Get back on your mind and get along with the people in your room first!

I let myself in the mood and opened the door with all the momentum.

There was a girl there. She showed me yesterday. If that's all, I said thank you yesterday. But it doesn't.

Because she wasn't dressed. I wear underwear, but nothing else.

Excuse me, sir.

Momentum opened the door and shut it instantly.

Safe...

It's out, not safe, but I didn't realize I was in a lot of a hurry. But I soon found out that it was out.

"Caaaaaaaaa"

A loud scream comes from inside.

Wow! What do I do? ⁉ ⁉ ⁉ ⁉ But I don't know if I can come back when I move from here... No, but...

As it warmed up in front of the room that way, the door to the room opened in momentum.

And then a girl came out of the inside with her face bright red and tears in her eyes. It's anger that comes to that face.

Cold sweat runs out.

And I was exposed to a round-trip binta sentence. Students from the Knights School, who heard the noise, came to see what was going on. Some of them have somehow perceived what had happened and have turned a blind half, a sympathetic half eye.

Help me!

Ask for help while being vindicated.

Hey, how many shots do you...?

That's what I wanted to hear.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Hiya."

"Hmm."

I'm the one who apologizes for lying on the ground with swollen cheeks. And it's Alice who's in the same room who jumps it with his nose.

"I will never forgive you!

"Hit me no more"

I'm not getting any more swelling...

I tremble with a blurb in the corner of the room.

Did Alice overdo it when she saw me like that? Reflect slightly.

On second thought, I knew the cohabitants were coming today. And yet I was dressed for swallowing. Bad too.

That wouldn't have happened if I had a knock, but it's too much to beat a kid younger than me to the point where his cheek swells up in bread because he didn't do it.

He sees me as an object of fear and is terribly frightened.

We'll live together for the next few years. It's not good as it is.

But what am I supposed to do?

Wouldn't I be the victim in this case for once?

They saw me dressed. How about I apologize for being the victim, even though I've done too much...

I'm not convinced to apologize. Let's figure out a different approach here.

"... the next step is to get the knock right"

"Hiya?

"Nice ⁉"

"Hi-ha, hi-ha!

It frightened me again...

... Enough! I'm going to bed today!

I shelved the problem and Alice closed her eyes trying to get into her cot and sleep.

Gattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattatta

Alice wakes up with signs of people moving. For a moment, he closed his eyes again wondering who was up to ⁉ but immediately remembered that more people were living with him and what the person was doing.

It's not dark yet. What are you doing from this hour on?

I closed my eyes without trying to talk to him, even though I had some doubts that way. It was Alice sending more and more problems ahead.

Meanwhile, the cause of the noise, I changed my clothes, took my sword and went out to train in the morning. Ray said that what we do indispensably every day is a shortcut to improvement. I'm sure Ray does it every day even after he goes to school. I have to do it every day so they won't leave me, too.

I didn't run away because I was afraid of Alice. Even if you get up earlier than usual and start training...

"All right, let's do this..."

I thought carefully about anti-stray measures overnight. [M] That's where I came up with the string.

If you string everything from the room to the practice area, you'll never be lost and unable to come home. That's what I thought. I bracketed the string around the door knob in the room, and stretched it out to the exercise area.

But here's one miscalculation.

Going home was perfect, but going was a problem. I didn't make it to the practice hall. We arrived at the pond the same as Aye. How do you always get here?

With that in mind, I began to pretend that I was okay here.

If you don't do it for a couple of hours, then it's time to go back, and start tracking the strings.

Perfect while I am. I don't have to worry about getting lost with this. Let's go with this when we go to school.

"Ah, good morning"

"... good morning"

Alice still looks in a bad mood.

Shit... I thought you'd take me to school, but then maybe I can't...

"... what's your name?

"Di, I say Dikuld"

"Yes. My name is Alice, and it's my pleasure to meet you"

Alice introduced herself unfathomably.

Are you in a better mood than yesterday...? All right, let's ask you out of your mind.

"Um, Mr. Alice, can you show me to school?

"I don't mind that...... why? The school just went straight from here, didn't it?

"Really? Yeah, I might get lost, so I'd like to ask you if I can..."

"There's nothing to get lost on, is there?

"Still, I get lost..."

Oh yeah, Alice laughs bitterly. I have eyes for painful children.

"If you're so lost, why don't I give you a lift to class?

"Is it true? ⁉ Please!

"Ugh, yeah. Where's the class?

Alice answers a little pully to me on Alice's suggestion to get on with it.

"Yeah, it's a selection class."

"Eh ⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉

I'm surprised. Mr. Alice is in the selection class, too. Does that mean you have any special skills?

"Good. Now you can have a classmate."

"What? But Alice and I can't be classmates because we're in different grades..."

"You don't know anything. Only selected classes are not separated by grade. It's an individual breakup class, and there's no one there in the first place."

You're telling me I shouldn't be here because there's no one here? It's appropriate.

Alice stared at me thinking about it. If you look, you have clothes in your hand. His eyes told him to get out because he was getting dressed.

I rushed away... not out of the room. [M]

That guy scares me...

"Oh, here it is"

"No! The other way around. The other way around!

"Is that it?"

The directional tone deafness was alive and well even when I arrived in front of the classroom. Alice yells at me for trying to get into the classroom in the exact opposite direction.

"Unbelievable... I was just about to come in here..."

"hahaha......"

I laugh thirsty at Alice. [M]

I didn't know you were so seriously ill...

I get spooked about myself.

All right, now I put my hand on the door that it's time to go into the classroom.

"Right this way."

"Neighbor"

A scratch with chops flew in from Alice.

Ouch...

That's how it took me 10 minutes to get into class. Alice had been talking to herself since earlier, horrible, amazing in a way to be so wrong, etc.

I laughed bitterly and kept waiting for a teacher to come to my classroom.

ragged

The classroom door opened with a dragging sound, and two knights came in. One of them brought me here yesterday. The other was Mr. Carambel.

"It's Carambel. I'm going to be Dikuld's teacher from today on."

Mr. Carambel, who greets me so briefly, was staring at me. Those eyes glow sharply and are very scary.

Did I do something...?

"Carambelle 8265;"

"What? Are you famous?

"Bullshit, you don't know ⁉⁉⁉;⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉\82

Alice even tells me she's from every countryside.

Sure, it's country, but come on...

"I don't care about that. Dikuld, come to the practice area. I'll give you a class there."

Carambel left the classroom to say so briefly. I rush after him. [M] Because if I try to make it to the practice area by myself, I'll be lost again.

"sloppy......"

"What? What?

"You're the only one who says it's bad enough for such an amazing person to tell me!

"Eh ⁉"

I panicked at Alice for grabbing my chest.

"Hmm."

Are you satisfied with one swing, Alice, who puts her hands off.

I knew this guy was scared...

Such a scary person, a shared life with Alice, and a mentoring relationship with Mr. Carambel began.
