Kage no Eiyuu no Nichijou-tan

Outside the exercise area, the sky was completely dark.

"Huh. Good luck today, and it's time to go home."

Gran says stretching lightly.

I thought about going back to the student dorm, but I stopped thinking a little bit.

"Gran. I'll stay because I want to practice a little more"

"Ooh, roger. Really, I've been practicing for a while... but I'd be pissed off if I was tired in the morning."

"Are the lions doing morning practice?"

"Free to participate, though."

The Eagles are also, maybe, practicing in the morning.

I haven't been able to figure out much about what my teammates are doing lately because of the priority given to teaching magic to Dr. Sylphia. For once, my fellow players have given me permission to compete in the physical race, so I don't think there's a problem...

After splitting with the gran, move to the corner of the ground.

Watching the students arrive on their way home, they activated the Barrier (Barrier) in thin hands.

The translucent wall is stretched thinly or condensed to palm size.

Being biased towards compression, I was good at condensing magical shapes. The walls condensed to the limit boast durability that is not even freaking out to the extent of a light beating.

"... you should thank Dr. Sylphia again"

It's just someone Chris recommended.

Begging her to teach increased her repertoire of moves all at once.

"... hmm?

Second, I felt signs of people from strange places and looked back.

I see multiple figures on the roof of the exercise area. They obviously avoided people's eyes and quickly moved somewhere.

- You're not going to be noticed with that?

Speaking of which, I also saw a suspicious figure when I left school with Mize.

Not that I saw it by chance, but that there's something in the school?

"… Explore"

Follow the shadows as you alert your surrounding ears and eyes.

Even though most of the students were out of school, there were still numerous signs of people in the school. I don't want boulders to behave flashy in this situation. But at least - you should make a decision about whether they're enemies or allies.

Follow the shadows for a few minutes or so and explore their identities.

Observations led to the discovery of one fact.

- At least I'm not a man of the kingdom.

The clothes and weapons you are wearing are not Kingdom style.

They are probably enemies. When I decide that, I take the "communication paper" out of my pocket and contact the right person.

"What's wrong?

"There's an intruder in the school"

I told Chris, the correspondent, I had an errand to attend to immediately.

Free up for a little while, I can hear the sigh.

'... thanks. Thank you for your report. "

In response, I assume Chris has some idea of the current situation.

"Sounds like what I was expecting for you.... I don't know what's going on, but are you being chased by the response? If you stay like this, you'll see someone else besides me."

'I just sent someone to school. I've been doing a lot of work for over ten days now... but honestly, there are too many enemies. You're right, they're after you. "

I say to Chris that I apologize for the sigh mix.

"Competitive festival for talks...... I expected some espionage to go astray, but at this stage, is there an organization that moves so flashly"

Sounds like it.

I questioned Chris, who hammered him with a small voice.

Much less. Sometimes you'll be tired at work, but this is one way or another......

"... hard to explain?

'Yeah. I don't want to get in your way, not in a sensitive way'

Out of the way?

'... you're trying to master new magic for the competition festival, aren't you? I'm enjoying my student life around the corner, so I feel resistant to getting involved.'

Well, I'm convinced.

"Care is unnecessary. Is there anything I can do to help?

'... okay?

"The enemy's already beside me, isn't he? It's more disgusting to ignore it than you realize once."

I'm tired of pretending not to look.

But that's just an excuse.

"Besides - if it's to protect what you want to protect, it's not a bad fight"

This one was my real deal.

When I was a soldier in the institution - I was just fighting by orders, wacky different from me back then.

Now I can choose my own battlefield.

When I broke Elisia from the chain of vengeance, or missed Mize from the devil's hand in the kingdom of Arkedia, something like an elusive sense of accomplishment was coming to my chest. I didn't feel anything when I crusaded the Demon King, but I did get something when I fought for those two.

You can trust that feeling. You can fight for that feeling. I think so.

'... right. What you want to protect now is what's there.'

Chris says with a small exhale.

No heart, or the voice sounded happy.

Then I'll explain the situation.

Chris said calmly.

"The enemy is the Russian Empire. The goal is to stop the Lucetus talks."
