Fake Saint Of The Year
Episode 19 Complicity (Second Half)
--It was a pleasant coincidence for Bernel.
Magic school students are given many tasks during their summer vacation.
Knowledge of knights, names of saints of the past, life they have walked, history... many of the wicked deeds of past witches, past combat records.
Reading and writing, arithmetic, manners, women's escorts, table manners.Knowledge of the Servant.
They are required to knock them into their heads.
As a minimum, you must excel in practical skills, and if you want to be a knight, you will be required to have such a high level of education.
Fighting a knight is more than just fighting.Presence to protect and support the Virgin.
Therefore the knight shall ask for more than a servant to serve the royal family, and shall wear them with his practical skill in only three years.
Above all, it was the students' own sense of improvement that was required.
Summer vacation is never the school's plan to take a long time off.
This is a pretense that someone who really rests is relentlessly removed from the knighthood candidate.
The knight protects the Virgin, who is the most important being for mankind.
Therefore, sweetness is not tolerated.If a monster or witch assassinates you in a slightly distracted gap, it will never be done.
If that happens, two years ago from Ellise's point of view... the dark period of mankind will grow in vain, just as it did when the ancestral Virgin died.
That's why it's a summer vacation... for those who are delighted and uncomfortable.
It is only natural to finish all the tasks that have been raised, and if you can't even do that, you will be expelled from the school on the spot.
On top of that, how to use free time and widen the difference with the surroundings.The school is looking at it.
Of course Bernal doesn't know the circumstances, but his aim is to be strong enough to be on the Virgin's side.I'm not interested in anything else.
Not to mention Ellise, the best Virgin of all time.
Then I am prepared to not get there with a lot of effort.
So on the first day of the summer vacation, such as the assignment, I borrowed the materials from the library and finished it quickly.
I wanted to spend the rest of my time training.
Then I returned the finished materials to the school library, and on my way back to the dorm with some special training... I found Ellise who was kind of sneaky.
"Ellise-sama...?
"Phew!?
When I called out, I heard a lovely voice that I didn't usually hear as much as I was surprised.
This basically calm Virgin looks fresh.
Belnell felt a little superior by seeing things that no one else would have seen.
"Ah, was that Mr. Bernel?I'm surprised..... "
"What are you doing?It's like hiding from someone... maybe Leila?
Bernell said that, apparently it was a star, and Ellise was stiff.
Then I skipped the question to Bernell to try to distract him from the subject.
"By the way, why is Mr. Bernell here?
"I went to the library to return the book I borrowed, and that's it.
What did Ellise do?
"I'm... taking a little walk.Sometimes I want to walk alone...
So now I'm wondering how I can get back without Leila finding me.
... I escaped during Leila's nap when I left. "
Ellise answered Bernel's question with a distraction.
Essentially, she always comes with an escort wherever she goes.
That may be helpless given her importance, but sometimes she gets choked.
You mean there is such a side to being a saint?
Belnell was somehow delighted when she felt as if she had been far away before, and suddenly felt that her distance had shrunk when she thought she was the same person.
"Then I'll help you with that, too.You just need to keep an eye on Leila, right?
"What? Are you sure?... no, but I'm sorry.Besides, there are some places where Leila doesn't make jokes.... "
"It's okay. Let me do it.If the Virgin is in trouble, it is the knight's duty to help.
... well, I'm not even a candidate yet. "
Then they went up the stairs to the fifth floor, worrying about the absence of anyone around them.
A little further away is a guest room, where Leila keeps her guard in an immobile position in front of the door.
Leila Scott... she was a longing for Bernel in a way different from Ellise.
Leila's current position is exactly where everyone who believes in Ellise is headed.
Stay closest to Ellise and be guarded.The best seat for all knights.
Belnell respected Leila there, but at the same time he was a little jealous.
Now that she was there, one day I wanted to stand up.
Nevertheless, that is still to be said.I am just a student now.
Just figure out how to get Ellise to the room before the best knights.
"Dear Ellise, I'm going to get Leila's attention and get away from the door right now, so in that gap....."
"Yes, I understand."
After nodding to Bernel's instructions, Ellise laughed funny.
"Ellise?
"Ah, no. Something's wrong.
It's kind of like a child's play to do bad tricks together.
If I had a friend, it would be fun if I thought it was like this. "
It was usually an out-of-the-box and mysterious smile that she showed.
Bernel deflects his face and looks forward.
... I think it was close.
Honestly, I really thought my breathing and heart would stop like this.
If I'd kept looking at that smile a little longer, I'd have fallen in love and nothing to think about.
"Well then... I'll go."
Bernel declared so and stepped forward.
However, there can be no doubt that ordinary students have entered a restricted area other than the Virgin and her escort.
Bernale almost got caught without asking questions, and Ellise rushed to show up to cover it, but the operation failed brilliantly.
Then Leila scolded them.
I've been scolded.
Since then, the two of them have come to receive Leila's sermon.
After more than a decade of scolding, Ellise finally turned to Bernel.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bernell.
This is what happened with me. "
"No, I'm the one who brought it up... haha"
After all, it didn't help.
Bernell is a little uncomfortable with the fact, but Ellise whispers to him.
"But this time it was fun.If I had a chance, I'd like to do something again so I don't get scolded. "
"Again...?
"Unless it bothers you."
"Nah, I'm not bothering you!By all means! "
Ellise smiled at Bernel in a hurry and was taken back to her room by Leila.
And just before the door closed, I looked back again.
"I'll see you tomorrow... Mr. Bernell (...)"
The door closed at the end, and Ellise disappeared.
It was Bernel who was a little confused for a while, but Leila paid for it with her hands, so she went back to sanity and went down the stairs.
The words of Ellise at the last moment refresh the brain many times.
Mr. Bernell... what used to be Mr. Bernell's manners turned him into "you".
This is a clear step forward.I definitely feel the distance between myself and her has narrowed.
On the way back to the dorm... Bernal jumped into a gatz pose with much joy.
