Senpensekai no Madoushoshi

Letter gossip IX

Three days have passed since the search for the thirty-fifth floor was completed. There have been no reports that the sword has yet been repaired, leaving it with Rizzelaich.

Feeling anxious, unreliable that my love sword is not beside me, I still teach my students the sword today.

……

To tell you the truth, I was just looking forward to it.

I was wondering if I could spend a different amount of time with Carol in this school because I've been in the world of wandering and slaughtering adventurers for a long time. But that expectation seems to have been fulfilled in a bad way.

"Ha, what the..."

I've spent a lot of time away from Carol since I came to this school.

During the day, I have a job teaching swords, and Carol is doing something with Carol. There are no signs that you can tell me anything about it, and whether you invite me to class or dinner, there is no island to hang out on.

"You talk less at night, and you're definitely in a bad mood... him"

I probably know why. I'm the other girl......... well, I'm a student, but I guess it's because I've prioritized them.

There is a great deal wrong with me about this. I was making a mistake. Carol needs to bend the navel to this extent.

In fact, Carol is such a dry guy that until now he's done it with 'hmm' even if I'm doing something with someone. But even if the relationship changes, and we break our thoughts and become lovers to each other, it should be noted that I am an asshole who thought we were the same as before.

No, maybe it's been like that before. It's not that I didn't think anything of it, but maybe there was something I actually thought was different. I was just blunt and unaware.

"I hope you're there..."

As well as yesterday, climbing the spiral staircase in the library, I pray that Carol is there.

"Oh?"

Then I saw his little back. He still seems to be doing something I can't tell him today, rocking his tail bigger than his body.

"Carol."

I climbed the stairs with as much footsteps as I could, so it shouldn't surprise me as it did yesterday.

In fact, Carol was turning here by the time I could climb the stairs.

"What?"

This guy is usually nicotine like Rosé, but now his expression is cloudy. My chest hurts so bad that I know I'm the one who's making me do it.

"We're going to dinner."

"... yeah"

Until I heard the answer, I thought they'd say no. So I pulled hard today. But I was going to take him, but that decision was wasted early.

"You want to wait a minute?

"Ugh, I'm fine. 'Cause I'm done cleaning up."

"Right. Then let's go."

I stood up and turned to Carol coming this way, offering her my hand.

……

Then Carol looked up at me with a slightly troubled face.

"This is the school, right?

That's what they said, and I thought I did pull my hand in.

Apparently I've been floating around for a long time now that Carol unexpectedly agreed to it so badly.

It's been a long time since I started spending time at this school, but this is the first time I've had dinner with Carol.

"Hey, where do you usually have lunch?

"Here or in the courtyard?

Three hundred students, about half of them, eat lunch in this dining room, apparently. So, even inside the school building, this dining room is quite spacious.

Dozens of them are situated in a round table by the window, and we now have the same menu.

"Then you just weren't in the right time."

"I think so."

I have a reply, but it's not as good as usual. That doesn't bother me if it's always the case, and where some silence has arisen, it can be the other way around comforting.

But now, it's not. I was looking for a topic and throwing it at Carol definitely. But Carol never shakes the subject, and soon she runs out of talking.

"Hey, it's time to tell me. What have you been up to lately?

And in the end, I come back to this topic. I don't know if I'm persistent, but that's all I can talk about right now. It is also the thing that bothered me the most at the moment, and I didn't have much hesitation in speaking.

"Nothing. I'm not doing anything in particular."

"But you're talking to Iris a little alone."

"Really? Well, I'm escorting you, and I'll do enough to tell you what I'm up to."

That's what Carol replied, but I wasn't convinced. Because you two look oddly koso-so.

……

To me, Iris is like my sister. Carol became a lover to each other now too, but before that, she thought like a sister.

Those two sisters are doing something by letting go of me, their sister. I asked Rose somewhat, who was also supposed to be in her sister's shoes, but she smiled and said 'I don't know you' back. Wouldn't Rosé mind?

Some footsteps approached this way as I was stuffy and crashing my meat pie on the plate with a fork.

"Um, Dr. Iriburg"

"Dear Iriburg,"

When I gave him my face, there were several prospective students standing there. I put the same dishes on the tray as us, and I look reluctantly at this one.

"What's up?

Although I hear and see, I can largely imagine the answer.

"Yes, I saw your teacher, and I was wondering if we could have a meal together."

By the way, the round table seats six, and about four more people can sit. And there are four students who have just come here.

"Ahhh."

Looking for words in my head wondering if there's a good way to say no......

"Aside from the Atashi, okay?

Such a voice came directly from the front. The Lord of that voice was Needless to say Carol, where he was stabbing a pairing carrot with a fork and carrying it to his mouth.

"Oh, I'm sorry. You two were eating together."

"Since you're away, we're still here..."

Can't help but sit face-to-face at a wide table and be seen as such if the words are not also closely exchanged?

"If I seem to disturb you, I will change the day again..."

"No, I don't mind. Forgive me, too, and have a seat. Was it also a question?

I took care of my face as a teacher and invited the students.
