The story of the son of the mercenary in the north enrolling in the magic school in the south

After school, Talwen really came to get Sicily.

"Sicily"

Talwen waves in front of the classroom door, calling out Sicily's name.

As Sicily stood up and walked towards you, Eldo glanced at Sicily with a flickering look.

Um...

Sicily told Eldo.

Talwen from the next class wants to go home with Sicily today.

Hmm.

Eldo watched.

Really?

"Yeah."

I thought you might ask me something, but Eldo didn't ask me anything.

I didn't even know if he knew about Talwen.

As Sicily came out of the classroom, Talwen gladly broke his face.

Come on, let's go home.

"Yeah."

Sicily nodded and glanced back at Eldo.

Eldo had just begun to read some book with a difficult face.

Talwen walked down the road opposite the dorm, saying he wanted to show you something.

"Oh, this way to the woods."

Sicily says, Talwen nods, yeah.

You haven't been in the woods lately.

That reminds Sicily that she has certainly not been in the woods lately.

"I didn't."

Immediately after answering, I remember the reason.

"I mean, there's an exam.I have to go back to the dorm and study right after school. "

"It doesn't matter for a day."

Talwen says.

"You know what you could do in a day.All you have to do is put it together tomorrow. "

Sure, you're right.

Talwen's words fell into Sicily's heart.

"That's right. Should I work hard tomorrow?"

"Yes, it is."

Talwen says with ease.

If you can't do it tomorrow, you can do it the day after tomorrow.

When Sicily laughed unexpectedly, Talwen blushed her cheeks with joy.

"If you can't do it the day after tomorrow, the next day."

He said deliberately in a violent tone to attract Sicily's attention.

"If you keep it that long, it'll be exam day."

Sicily said Talwen nodded with a serious face.

"Then we can work hard on next year's exam."

While talking to Talwen, Sicily felt her mind getting lighter and lighter.

Next year. Yeah, that's right.We'll always be in time. "

Talwen nodded happily when he laughed.

For the first time in a long time, the forest was a perfect winter outfit.

The two walked as they stepped on dry, rounded leaves.

"Where are you going?

When Sicily asks, Talwen says, "It's good."

"In winter, it gets dark early, so you shouldn't go so deep.That's what Eldo said. "

According to Sicily, Talwen frowned slightly.

"Eldo?

"Yeah."

Sicily nods.

"It's okay. It's not that deep."

That's how Talwen got faster.

Eventually they went out to the creek.

Summer is a river where students play in the water, but nobody is seen now.

"I've been to the creek before, Sicily."

Sicily said Talwen shook his head.

"It's further."

Talwen pointed to a cavernous depression upstream of the creek, next to a small waterfall.

Sicily is also familiar with the waterfall, as the boys often jump in with courage from above.

I've been in that cave before.

Sicily said.

"It's going to be a dead end soon, and there's nothing to it."

"You think so."

Talwen smiled as if he had been waiting.

Come on. Come on.

Talwen points to the ceilings of the caves where he stepped in line.

"Ah."

Sicily raised her voice unexpectedly.

Transparent, sparkling fangs above your head.

"Ice"

Sicily murmured and Talwen corrected.

It's called frustration.

"Irritability"

Talwen nods when Sicily repeats.

"It's like this place gets cold.That's why the water droplets on the ceiling freeze and make it feel like this. "

"Beautiful"

Sicily sparkled her eyes.

It was the first sight I saw in my life.

Ice pillars stretching from the ceiling like inconsistent fangs.

It shines with a pale light from the outside.

I tried to reach out, but I couldn't reach it on Sicily's back.

"I can't take it."

Watch out.

Talwen pulled Sicily's hand.

"When I shake it, it breaks and falls quite easily.I'll get hurt if it hits me. "

"Yes, it is."

Answer that and stand back, but I can't let go of the frustration.

It's beautiful.

You're right.

Talwen's chest tightens.

I found it.

"Why did you tell Sicily?"

Looking up, Talwen turned his eyes away as if they were illuminated.

I mean, yeah.

At that time, the wind blew.

With the wind, a white mist blows into the cave.

"Fog."

Sicily says Talwen nods.

"When the wind blows, the water in the river blows in like fog.The robe is getting wet, so let's get out of here. "

"But it's hard."

"I'll get it. Let's get out of here."

"Yeah."

The mist came to Sicily's feet as she nodded and tried to come out.

Go, Sicily.

The white fog surprisingly brought the memory of that day to Sicily.

Talwen looks back strangely at Sicily, who stopped her legs.

"What's wrong?"

Um...

Sicily was confused.

I didn't forget.It was just too intense an experience to remember very much.

Desperate face, Eldo.

A hairy monster suddenly appeared in its entirety.

I'll hold it off, you go.Hurry up.

I knew Eldo was a lifesaver.

But I never thought deeply about that day.

The fog is now carrying that vivid memory.

Eldo spreads his hands as if he were covering Sicily from a monster.

The mist sprays out from your whole body.

The fog envelopes the monster, Eldo, and Sicily.

Call for help.I'll take care of this.

Sicily doesn't know how Almark and another third-year student, who ran out into the woods to hear Sicily's desperate appeal, managed to save Eldo.

But was it the day after that?

When she went to say thank you for your help, Eldo said that she was illuminated.

I'm glad I could use the magic of fog.I'm glad you practiced.

That day, I used up all my magic and lost consciousness.

Eldo, who woke himself up from his bed, told him to bite him.

Later, I couldn't make it.I couldn't help Sicily.

"Later, I didn't make it."

Sicily murmured.

Huh?

Talwen looks suspicious.

"What happened?

The hardships I saw for the first time were very beautiful.

I wanted to take it in my hand.

But...

"Sorry, Talwen."

Sicily turned her back when she said so.

"Sicily, we're almost there."

"Eh, hey. Sicily"

Talwen shouted in surprise, but Sicily shook her hand again, saying sorry, and ran off the road to the school building.

Talwen stares at Sicily's running back at the exit of the cave.

Eventually, when Sicily disappeared behind the trees, Talwen sighed and scratched his head.

Hee.

Finally with her.

Because I've always been with him, I've finally gotten along with him, who I couldn't even talk to.

When I saw him walking alone, my chest rang.

I thought it was only now, so I called out.

I'm sure you'll walk with him again after the exam.So now is the only chance.

That's what I thought, and I could show you all the hard work I had left.

I wonder what I couldn't do.

Talwen kicked the stone at his feet into the river.

Eldo looked up in surprise at Sicily, who stood in front of him with a sigh of breath.

"Sicily."

Say that and blink your eyes.

I thought you said you were going home with your neighbor.

"There are a lot of things I don't know."

Still breathing roughly, Sicily sat next to Eldo.

Tell me, Eldo.

"Of course I don't mind."

That said, Eldo looks around.

"But we have to be quiet in the library."

Well, tell me quietly.

Sicily said.

"And, Eldo.Sicily will study here after school tomorrow. "

In that words, Eldo opens his eyes to surprise.

"Why suddenly?"

"Eldo, you think you hate studying about Sicily."

"No, it's not."

Sicily nodded loudly when Eldo shook her head in trouble.

"Sicily, I've decided to do my best to study now."

Eldo looked at Sicily as if she had been stunned, but eventually nodded that she understood.

"Then I'll raise your rank."

The words were full of confidence.

I knew Eldo was reliable.

Sicily nodded with a smile.
