Chapter 91: v5c6

As the vacation came to an end, more and more students gradually returned to the dormitories. Gradually, the dormitory began to regain its pre-vacation liveliness.

However, for the students who had stayed in the dormitories throughout the vacation, it was a somewhat sad buzz that signaled the end of their carefree vacation.

There were still three more days until the vacation was over, and Nelson came back.

"Hey, how are you two!"

Nelson, tanned pitch black, waved loudly when he saw Almark and Morgen in front of the dormitory.

:Welcome back, Nelson. You're looking great .:

　Almark responded with a smile.

"Well, I guess so. I've been swinging a sword every day in my free time,"

Nelson smiles pleasantly.

"It was a good vacation."

"I'm glad to hear it."

You guys went to Wendy's mansion, right? How was it?"

"It was great. We had a lot of fun."

Morgen said, and Almark nodded.

"I'm glad you did ."

"Because I'd have been a bit stuffy to stay in the dorm all the time ."

Nelson said, roughly placing his luggage on the ground.

" I'm itching to check results of my summer training "

　With that, he goes through his luggage and pulls out a cloth-wrapped practice sword.

"Let me see how close I can get to you, Almark!"

"You're coming at me so fast . Why don't you go to your room and put your stuff down first?"

"I've been practicing all vacation with the image of blowing up Torque. I can't wait to finally see it in reality"

　Nelson is full of enthusiasm.

"I'd like to keep you company , but I can't."

"What? Why not?"

“Because, unlike you, I don't have a sword.»

"What? Don't you have some kind of stick?"

　Nelson says with a look of disappointment on his face.

"Why don't you use that? Maia gave you a stick the other day."

　Morgen interrupted.

"Oh, I see. "

What, you got that stick from dorm manger ? What were you doing while you were on vacation ......?"

"Well, all kind of things ..."

　Morgen replies with a smirk.

　Almark brought a wooden stick from his pocked .

　As usual, it fits comfortably in his hand, just like the long sword he has used to using.

'All right, let's do it then."

　With Morgen watching over them, the two begin their martial arts practice.

　Nelson's strikes are handled with a stick by Almark.

　He had been practicing for some time, and his strikes were quite sharp.

　It was as fast as Torque's strikes in their first martial arts class.

"You've really come a long way, Nelson. Nice one ."

　Nelson grins at Almark's words.

It's not even close! This ain't the way it's supposed to be!"

　Nelson increases the speed of his strikes.

　Almark handles it with ease, but it is clear that he has made an effort to do so .

　As he handles Nelson's strike, Almark remembers the face of his childhood friend, with whom he used to exchange strikes when he was just starting to hold a sword.

　(It brings back memories.)

　What comes to Almark's mind is Galba, the son of Gazak, the axe master."

'Almark, let's play!"

　and he would come to challenge him to a match every day.

　Almost always it was Almark who won, but Galba would never admit defeat, and the two of them would fight with wooden sticks every day.

'Go , big brother Almark!'

　Mary cheered for him , but Galba was puffed up.

"Don't cheer him up Mary," he used to say.

　(I wonder if Galba has already left for the battlefield.)

　(Is he riding the battlefield as one of the Black Wolves?)

"Ouch!"

　While he was thinking about this, Almark unconsciously poked Nelson in the chest with a wooden stick.

　Nelson's voice brought him back to reality .

"I'm sorry. Are you okay, Nelson?"

　Nelson was holding his chest and cowering, and Almark hurriedly called out to him.

"Damn, you're good."

　Nelson said with a frustrated look on his face.

　Fortunately, nothing serious seems to have happened. Almark was relieved.

You are dangerous even without sword, I think we should call it a day."

The summit is still a long way off. ......

　Nelson shook his head and muttered.

"I am no match for Almark."

　Morgen nodded knowingly. And then...

"Ah."

"Hmm?"

　Morgen suddenly looked behind Almark and froze. The two of them turned around as well.

　There was a figure approaching the dormitory with luggage.

"Leila."

　Almark muttered.

　It was Leila, alone, walking swiftly toward the dormitory.

'Geez,'

　Nelson said.

“I didn't know she was in the same boat as me. How the hell did you get back so fast?”

"I'm afraid ...... her vacation is over,"

　Mogen said.

　Leila walks up to the front of the dormitory, takes one look at the three of them, and then walked inside.

"Welcome back, Leila," Almark said.

　Leila stops when Almark calls out to her.

　She glances at Almark and the others and said,

"Did you guys stay in the dormitory for the whole vacation?"

　Leila asked, looking at Almark and the others.

"Nelson just got back. "

“Hmmm... ......."

　Leila answered with disinterested interest and went to enter the dormitory.

"I'm not sure about it ."

　

''about what ?''

　At the grim expression on her face, Morgen becomes smaller behind Almark's back.

"We met in the garden on the first day of our vacation. she was really depressed back then, but now she look good "

　Leila looked at Almarc's face with an unblinking gaze, as if she were looking at something unusual.

　After doing so for a while, she looked away when she saw that Almark's expression did not change.

'...... That's right.'

　Leila said with gaze that seemed to be looking somewhere far away.

"......It's freedom here."

　A very sad look crossed her face. The first time he saw her, she looked at Almark with a grim look on her face and said, "

"I don't have time. for this "

"We're the only three in our class in the dorms right now,"

　

Almark said.

"Since we're here, why don't we have dinner together tonight?"

　Behind him, Nelson and Morgen let out an inarticulate cry.

　Leila looked at Almark curiously once more.

'...... I don't mind.'

Nelson's voice came from behind Almark.

"You're a strange person , aren't you?"

　Leila said without a smile, and this time she walked into the dorm
