Dispersed from an unexpected encounter, I quickly returned to my room.

Den and Retina were waiting for me in my room.

Apparently, you're helping me clean it up, but is that what the Marquis will do?

"Well, I hope it looks like Retina."

"I think they said something rude when I got back."

"It's nice to be casual."

"Good bye! Yes, sir."

"Dear Nicole, have a drink. It's hot today."

"Thanks, Den"

It's so smooth that I don't think I have a three-year blank, I feel relaxed that I was straining myself in conversation with Cain for an answer with Retina.

Deng used to bring me cold drinks, so I had no choice but to loosen my face.

"That look, in the last three years, has been incredibly powerful."

"What's that ability, I don't remember?

"Right. It's been expensive for a long time."

"So rude!

The glass cup is a little too much in my hand, so I thought you just drank it with both hands.

It is Deng's fault for not using a cup with a handle. It's never my fault.

"Thank you, Nicole, for using the kitchen and talking to me."

"Oh, I thought you'd need that in the future."

"Dinner, do you want to make something just now?

I put my hand on my chin, too, to Den's words. No, I didn't have any ideas, I was just thinking about what I wanted to eat.

Deng, in the first place, is highly skilled in making tea, but not so highly skilled in cooking.

This wasn't Deng's fault because he just didn't have the cooking skills on the side I taught him.

Well, even a cluttered arm would make about a sandwich.

But the thought was interrupted by the presence that abruptly jumped into the room.

"Wait a minute! Nicole's meal has been my business for a long time!

Finia, knock on the door.

"Oh, excuse me"

"Later, because now you are Letina's squire"

"There's something that people can't give away."

In the hands of Finia, who said she was shabby, a tray was cleverly placed on top of which was provided with a lightly knotted sandwich and salad kind.

It's not just chopped vegetables, around with chicken sashimi, etc., and the man's den seems to be well aware of it.

"It's light, but I think there's plenty of volume for dinner, too."

"Then I will prepare some tea. Do you have any requests?

"Then I'll make coffee."

"I am incense tea. With more sugar."

"Yes, sir."

When Deng took the order, he headed to the kitchen, which was set up indoors with the scuffle.

Sometimes my room was meant for the aristocracy, and I had facilities for easy cooking.

Of course it is not as authentic as the kitchen on the ground floor, so it cannot be imitated as making course dishes.

After dropping off that back, he shifts his gaze next door.

"Heh... coffee, hey?

"What, what?

"Letina, who didn't like that 'stinky', made coffee. I'm not pushing you?

"I didn't! Rude. I've developed a taste for tea, too."

"I'm not pushing you?

"You're persistent. I didn't."

"... really?

"... just for a moment"

"I'll trade you for incense tea later."

"Ugh."

You wanted to show me where you grew up, of the stuff you asked for coffee, it still didn't seem like a preference.

Seeing you say it and pointing your lips at it, it looks like the temperament you had as a child.

But more than that, there was something I had to check now.

"Retina, I just met Cain in the backyard."

"With Master Cain? I don't think you'd like that."

"Yeah, you looked like a snake"

Then I checked with Retina to make sure it was him.

For once, a public place may be decorated with pictures, etc., but, oh, painters may dare to paint 'unlike pictures', taking reality into account.

It was very important to check with those who knew who he was.

"He seemed like he was working out pretty good, but what about his skill?

"Rumors all over the city seem to be strong enough to defeat Auga alone. It's a suspicious thing about those skinny arms."

"Even though it was thin, it seemed like a pretty worked out thin one,"

I was the exact embodiment of that in my previous life.

The arm is supple and powerful as it compresses the forged muscles.

I just can't show off my rigid arms like Lyell, but I still had enough muscle strength to twist the average person with one hand.

And I felt that sign for Cain, too. He shouldn't look sweet.

"You've never actually seen where you're fighting? You have practice classes in the Higher Department, don't you?

"Even so, the school year is different. For once in the fall there is a festival called the Practical Festival, where they compete for magic and martial arts arms, etc. Speaking of which, you're almost there."

"Have you never seen the freshman Retina? Besides, I don't really want to stand out either."

"If you take too long, Lord Lyell can push you."

I'm busy with Cortina's special training right now, Lyells, but I've been doing enough to go check on him from time to time.

But while I'm on this job, I can't leave the college.

This is in the middle of an enemy land, because there is also the possibility of danger to Retina and Finia in a gap that leaves your eyes open.

Besides, even though I can use the magic of metastasis (teleport), that consumption is pretty tight on me.

If there was a case of trouble in the middle of the night, it could have been impossible to deal with it.

That's why I also tell Lyells that I can't go back for a while at work.

Still, if you take too long, it doesn't make a difference to be worried. If you finish Cortina's special training, you'll be coming to see how it goes instantly.

"Speaking of which, how strong is Den?

"Is that me?

"Yeah. If you have enough arms to defend yourself, it helps"

"Today Hasta...... no, I am trained by Master Ast so I think I can fight quite a bit"

"Really?

"I don't have any experience in action, so I can't be explicit"

"Yes, what?

For a moment I thought I could expect it as a force of war, but that expectation instantly bounced and flew.

There is no better being to die prematurely than bragging about an arm that has no experience in action.

Most of all, Den doesn't seem as complacent as he is proud of his arms, but he still remains anxious.

"I have to be in class tomorrow, too. In the meantime, will Den stay with Finia as long as possible?

"Yes, sir."

"With me?

"I'm not questioning Finia's strength. But it's easier for two people than one to deal with something. This is the home of disturbing molecules, so we need to be as vigilant as possible."

"Okay. Don't worry about Nicole. You're with Mr. Deng."

"It would help if you did. I'll be with Retina at the academy."

"Yes, that would be reassuring"

Finia smiling. That face was putting a lot of pressure on me.

No, I know Finia's not supposed to use words like that, but it was so compressive that it sounded like it.
