Episode 28 "Tailgating"

"What, are you acting with your classmates?

After school the next day.

I was in contact with Chris in the "Correspondence Paper" a little further away from Elisia and the others who were working on the bomb.

"Oh, they're all pretty helpful. Especially since" The Path of Wisdom "is unusual."

"Yes... the King of the Great is obsessed with it."

That power is a threat to our enemies.

In exchange for the herd area of Spirit Grass Exercise, Mize is like being on the realm's side, but for now, I only feel like we have earned it.

"So, have you been able to find out about the man who led the agent?

Somewhat.

Chris says with a frustrating voice, "Is there not much fruit?"

In conclusion, there is no connection between the Army and the Knights. I've been trying to figure out what's going on with the money for a while, but I couldn't find any evidence of it. "

Think while chewing on the information Chris receives.

At present, the central organization of the kingdom will be under intense vigilance in the preparation of competitive festivals and talks. It can be a difficult business to sneak around and connect with the Empire.

"How about school then?

"I checked as much as I could... but I couldn't interfere much because we had less political colour than the army or the Knights. It's just that my guess is white."

"Why do you think it's white?"

"'Cause there's no point in school."

Chris said it clearly.

Stop the competition festivals and talks, and what's in it for the school? Together with the establishment of the General School of Bravery, Builders School is now more active than ever before. I don't think there's any point in losing that momentum myself. "

"... that's right."

Chris is right.

If someone is leading an Imperial agent, there seems to be a conflict of interest between the two. But according to Chris, at least we don't have a stake in the money. The army and the Knights were removed from the list, and the school had no incentive to engage with other countries.

If so...

"Isn't it an interest of the organization...?"

Since I became a student, I have fought multiple organizations.

In the case of Eritrea, the Duke of Tergande and the Order of Phosphorous.

In the case of Mise, the Holy Kingdom of Arkedia and the Royal Department of Defense Intelligence.

After I fought them, I might have been slightly wrong about the size of the enemy.

Somehow, I can see it.

I see. I sort of figured it out by erasing it. "

Even if the dispute in front of you was dramatic, the beginning of it could be extraordinary or small. This time it's typical.

"Hey, Tweet!!

A voice is heard from Gran, who was working to dismantle the bomb.

I'll call you when this is over.

Yeah, I'll probably take care of it this time because it's your (...) share.

That's how I finished communicating, and I headed to the warehouse where Grant and the others are.

"What's the matter, Gran?

"We're done dismantling. Mise put it together."

Mise was wiping the sweat on her forehead beside Gran who said so.

"But I did my best....."

"Thank goodness. Did you dismantle everything we could confirm?"

"Yes"

I must have checked all the magic tools used at the competition festival. All the bombs we've planted at the moment could probably have been dismantled.

"It's too late. Let's disband today."

That said, we got home.

On the way out of school, I glanced at the school building. The other day, the lights in the student meeting room that Mira showed me were still on. It's such a huge student union. Sometimes the competition festival is imminent, so I guess I'm busy.

"... I'm sorry. I left something behind, so go home first."

On the way to the dorm, I stop and tell everyone.

"What did you forget?

"Textbooks. Maybe there's a critical classroom open now."

Convince Grandpa and I'll go back to school alone.

The book was already down at night, and the school was wrapped in silence.

"... well..."

I'm the only one standing in the school yard.

When I stopped going to the classroom, I breathed a little and tried to go behind the school building.

"Didn't you leave something behind?

At that time, a voice rang from behind.

Looking back, the girl who was supposed to have said goodbye earlier stood up with her arms together.

"... Elicia?"

"I'm starting to read your behavior."

Apparently, he thought I was up to something and followed me.

"I didn't keep quiet for any reason.... Gran and Mise aren't here?

"I didn't invite Mise because she seemed tired of dismantling the bomb. Grant is sending Mise."

I mean, it seems that only Elicia has come after me.

"So, what are you going to do?

"... follow the student council. Maybe you'll get worn out."

To be honest, Elisia slightly rounded her eyes.

"I'm used to this kind of work, so there's no problem, but Elicia...."

"I'll help as much as I can. Get your hands off yourself before it's too dangerous."

That's why Elisia complained with her eyes.

It doesn't seem convincing. I nodded with conviction. Anyway, Elysia might be able to help you if you're tired, Mise, or Gran doesn't seem to like covert behavior.

Wait behind the shoe box with Elicia.

After a while, I heard footsteps from the stairs.

"I'm coming out."

Two people walked through the shoe box and went out.

I recognize him from behind.

"The student chairman and Mira.... it looks like there's nobody else."

I imagined that there were no bad barrens, but only these two came out of the student room this time. After they went out, I glanced at the school building. The lights in the student meeting room were out. Apparently, all but these two officers have already left.

"Tweet, where are you going?

"If you two keep heading towards the dormitory, stop. If not, I want to know at least where I'm going."

I followed them whispering.

The student chairman and Mira passed the school gate laughing. Then head towards the castle town.

"... then there's no way back to the dorm."

They descend the gentle slopes of the castle town and eventually enter a small restaurant.

They sat with a man dressed as a knight.

"Is that... the Knights of Phosphorous?"

The armor is removed, but the Knights' Crest is attached to the garment.

"Should I go inside the store?

"No... if you put this in a boulder, you'll find out right away."

We are now in uniform at Builders School. Even if they don't see it directly, someone may bring it up and pass it on to them.

"Let's eavesdrop on Elicia the way she used to."

That said, I pointed to my ear.

Ah, Elisia nods as she sees it.

- Rigidity.

Enhance your ears with this magic that strengthens your physical abilities.

The magic around my body concentrated on my ears and my hearing became sharp. I feel that the voice I hear from the tavern has suddenly changed noisily. Among them, I picked up only the voices of the student chairmen.

"... you seem to be contacting me about security."

To Elicia's whisper, I shook my head vertically without saying anything.

I knew Mira was behaving properly, but apparently she was acting seriously. Looks like we're having a meeting with the Knights about the security system around the campus.

"Excuse me."

A man's voice comes from behind.

Elisia looked back in haste. For a moment, I was trying to reach out to my sheath, but it was assertiveness that returned to me just momentarily. If you pull out your sword here, it's like you're saying you're suspicious.

"I need to talk to you for a second."

The voice of the man was wearing the armor of the Order of Phosphorous.
