When Hikaru visited Mikhail's instructor's office, Mikhail was just packing.

If it's the size of a hical, the three of them are likely to come in, with a huge rucksack of bread.

"Hmm, Hikaru?

"What's the matter, it. Are you going back to Jalazak? Running away at night?"

"Who's in debt. Don't hang out with Instructor Millet. Uh, you don't know Hikaru because he's just here this year. In the summer, it springs."

"The head of the instructor..."

"No! A monster!"

"After a long winter, monsters begin to reproduce in outdoor lands. It is summer that the individual grows, grows and becomes barbaric. So, it's the end of summer to crusade individuals who are getting bigger in the summer."

"Is that... like a monster thingy? I wish I could take him down before he grows up."

"Then there are too many. It's easier to fight in a 'finished' state to some extent."

"Heh. But that kind of feels like military work,"

"The army is busy with border security. Forestia is bordered by two countries: the past rough Empire of Quimbrand and the present progressive and rough Kingdom of Pawnsonia. Plus, it's a pretty good job. It's popular with adventurers."

"Is the Adventurer Guild partitioning you?

"That's right. I'm an adventurer too, aren't I?

Mikhail's guild card for the Adventurer Alliance put out showed Mikhail's rank of "C". "Occupation" was blank though.

"Kuku. Does Hikaru care about my 'profession' too? Unfortunately, we can't make it look --"

"So when are we leaving?

"Let me finish! Damn... I'm gonna be out by the end of the day."

"Do I really have to go?

"Hmm? Not really... this monster exorcism is an annual pleasure. Quinn brand adventurers and rarely Pawnsonian adventurers come this year. It's a good opportunity to exchange information with them and, more importantly, fight for their lives. So there's something about asking that on purpose? Ha, maybe I want to attend the Great Sword lecture--"

"No, that's not it. I have someone I want you to fight for."

"Are you rematching with Hikaru?!? No, then say yes quickly. Arms clanging --"

I'm a student of Kirihar.

…………

"What the fuck?"

"... Kirihar's student isn't in my lecture, is he? I don't like it. I want to go to the border and fight monsters if I want to spend enough time doing that."

"You're a battle maniac. By the way, how many days does that monster sweep take?

"As usual, it's 10 to 20 days."

"Rejected"

"Why are you dismissing my schedule!

I was honestly optimistic Mikhail would give me permission for a "mock fight," but the monster sweep job was unexpected.

However, if it is "unexpected" to this extent, it can be handled.

"The Kirihar student, in a little over 10 days, goes to Jalazak. And I plan to fight the king of Jalazak."

"... what do you mean?

"Of course I'm going to win. I'm working out."

Although technically Ivan works out and Hikaru is not just messing with the soul board.

"Hikaru in person?

An interest is expressed in Mikhail's eyes.

"I'm working out to beat Jalazak's boss, Alexei-Jalazak. As that outpost, I want to gain experience by fighting with Instructor Mikhail"

"Hmmm... beat our boss, or... Sure, if you beat me, it seems possible."

Arm-wrapped and roaring, Mikhail is the face of "that's impossible".

"By the way, I had a mock fight with Ivan yesterday and it was 10 out of 10"

Mikhail knows very well that Ivan is the strongest of the students taking the Great Sword lecture. That's why I opened my eyes.

"You're lying, aren't you? Such as someone who can complete Ivan as a student..."

"I'm not lying."

Yesterday, Claude, who changed his "profession" to "one-handed sword skill god: technical swordman," skillfully sent Ivan's sword as if his struggle had been a dream until then, winning 10 fights in a row. Then the Jalazak students said, "Fight me too!," so he almost won, although he lost several times due to fatigue.

It seems easier to fight without using the "shield" at all, where I don't modify it and I'm just training how far I can go with a one-handed sword.

"Is that weapon a great sword?

"No, it's a one-handed sword. I was in a short spear lecture originally, but the sword was better muscled, so I'm stretching it that way."

"Hikaru... do you even know that"

"It doesn't mean I'm good at teaching anything else. It happens, it happens. So, what do we do? Why don't we slow down the demon hunt a little and fight the students?

"... you said the battle with the boss was a little after the 10th or something. You're gonna hold me to that point and train me to be Virtual Alexei, right?

Did you find out?

But Hikaru thinks this degree will be foreseen.

"Hmm. Well, I'm a faculty member, so student training is part of my original job... yes. How about this?

"What the hell. Exchange terms?

"Once, the student and I will do a mock fight. I can fight to some extent...... I mean, if I can decide it's going to be a pretty good level in 10 days, you're right, I'll train you for 10 days. But if you don't seem to have that talent-- you're the instructor of the Great Sword lecture."

"Huh?"

"What, not all the time. Only while I'm out sweeping demons. Students will also need training to avoid flickering with someone like you."

If Claude has the strength, he can also enjoy Mikhail by calling it training, and if he doesn't have the strength, he can use Hikaru to challenge students —— and.

"I see. Either way, it won't hurt you."

"That's the condition."

Hikaru wondered if Jalazak's man had muscles clogged all the way to his brain, but the outgoing Mikhail seems wisdom works.

(Well, can't I be a teacher if I'm not)

"Okay."

"Oh, okay? I'm sorry you had to deal with our students!

"Heh. Already willing to go monster hunting as far as Claude is concerned?

"There's no student who can beat Master Alexei —— wait a minute. Is Claude-Zahad Kirihar a student?

"Then the simulation is tomorrow."

"Hey Hikaru, wait! You, the Zahad family of Kirihar, are famous --"

"I asked for it."

"What does that mean fighting Master Alexei!? Hey Hikaru, Hikaru!!"

Hikaru leaves Mikhail's instructor's office.

There was someone who looked at it —— from behind the pillars.

Hikaru left without looking back.
