Chapter 86: Please Wait!

Chapter 86 Please Wait!

「Ara, have you finished your talk?」

When we tried to leave the mansion of Duke Ortho, Lady May appeared with a smile. In the end, we became escorts for Therese, so I have no complaints. But, it feels itchy that I feel like being tricked by this person. It seems that Nell feels the same way.

「Hey, I told you, didn’t I? I don’t want to stand out because I’m in private.」

「Yes, I know. That’s why I haven’t mentioned your names. But, I might have accidentally said that there were strong adventurers. You see, I’m very soft to my daughter. You adventurers should make one soon. Children are very cute, you know?」

「…… Well, it was my fault for not saying it clearly.」

Oh, Nell gave in. Or rather, she ran away. But you know what, I’m still not convinced. After all, I haven’t received my reward from her!

「Please wait. Uh, it’s heavy… This will be the reward for escorting me to Genius. I didn’t know the market price, so I filled it with my own measurement. Is this enough?」

I untie the money bag that Lady May handed to me and examine its contents. ――Houhou, hou!

「We didn’t help you because of the amount of money. I would like to think that Lady May’s feelings led to this amount of money, and I would like to accept it. If you have any problems, please contact us through the guild. Here is the contact address.」

Me being convinced or not is a trivial matter. I hope that we can have a good employment relationship for a long time.

「Okaa-sama, have you finished your business? I’m going to the Gibeon Ruins with Deris-san and the others. I will tell Otou-sama when we get there, so you don’t have to worry.」

「I guess I don’t have to worry if you go with Deris-san. There’s no school tomorrow, but don’t return late, okay? Oh, by the way, have you finished your homework?」

「I’ve finished it a long time ago desuwa! It’s child’s play for a prodigy like me! Ohohoho!」

「Good. If Therese is the next lord, the future of Genius is secure. Ohoho.」

Therese was laughing a young lady’s laughter and Lady May was laughing a madam’s laughter. This family is somehow high-leveled that I’m having a cold sweat…!

「Haru-chan, Haru-chan. Goshujin-sama’s side face when he’s lost in thought is cool, right? It makes my heart throbs…」

「That’s right! I’m sure he’s thinking about some harsh training in the dungeon!」

「I-Is that so? The main will be an investigation, so I think there will be no training. Or rather, please don’t….」

「Ahh, that face is when he’s thinking something not important, you know?」

「Gobu!」

Hey, Gobuo-kun. What’s the meaning of that powerful ‘Gobu!’ word when there was a flow that felt as if dissing me?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When we were on our way leaving the town of Genius, Therese was greeted by a lot of students. The method of deciding on the student council president at Adelheit Magic Academy is the same as in Japan, it is decided by candidacy and voting by the students. Apparently, her popularity as a student council president is certain. Every student was friendly talking to her. On the other hand, Haru and Chinatsu, who had made an impactful appearance by pulling a carriage, were being looked at delicately by the students who must have seen the scene. Er, I’m really sorry. So Chinatsu, don’t look at me like you’re complaining to me.

The distance to Gibeon Ruins is close enough that you can walk from the town. If you take a short walk from Genius, you can see a stone pyramid-like building with a color between gray and black. At that time, I thought it might be someone’s grave, but there are no ghost, wraith, or zombie monsters. There are only low-level monsters that a rookie can deal such as goblins and bats. It’s the kind of place where you can really appreciate as the first dungeon. By the way, the entrance is a staircase that goes straight to the underground, so the pyramid is just a decoration.

「That is the Gibeon Ruins desuwa!」

「Wow, that’s a magnificent building!」

「If the smartphone battery was left, I might have taken a picture.」

The two who didn’t know that were innocently making merry. Well, this place can be a sightseeing spot if an adventurer accompanies you, so they are not wrong.

「I guess there are no tourists here now.」

「Until the safety of the dungeon is confirmed, it will be so. The loss of training grounds for students and adventurers will lead to the decline of the territory, no, even the country. It is also a tourism attraction, so if left as it is, there will be a crack in the financial affairs―― Deris-san, everyone! We are going to solve this problem as soon as possible desuwa!」

「「Yes!」」

「Gobu!」

The morale of Therese is high and her charisma is enough to motivate Haru and the others. Even her usual tension is high for no reason, so it may be connected to naturally encourage others. She tends to have high self-esteem, but her ideas are noble and heading in the right direction. She is suitable as a person who stands at the top.

――However, I don’t understand why she is working for the selection of the graduation festival. She is popular with the students and her conduct is not particularly problematic. Then, why is she out of the selection? She’s even appointed as the student council president, right? Or is there a problem with Duke Ortho?

「Well then, I’ll talk to my father first. Everyone, please wait here. Don’t worry, it will only take several minutes desuwa. Ohohoho!」

While laughing loudly, Therese disappeared into the dungeon. I feel like things gonna be out of hand there since her voice will reverberate underground.

Now is the right time, I guess? Let’s ask Nell about it.

「Nell, about Therese…」

「You are wondering why she is out of the selection, right?」

「Ugh, you saw through me, huh.」

「You were making a face like that after all. Well, I guess I can tell you now. It’s not like she’s hiding it either. In fact, I’m sure all the students at the academy know about it…」

「What do you mean?」

「You see, Therese can’t use magic.」

…… Come again?

「To be specific, the job-related skill she has is only Staff Arts even though she’s a magician. I don’t know if she picked up the others by mistake or not, but it seems that she did it when she was little. Moreover, she has trained those unrelated skills considerably when it was discovered. Even so, her job is level 3, so she’s praiseworthy.」

I-I see… I thought that she was unique, but her skill composition was also unique, huh… No wonder that she’s out of the selection of the graduation festival that mostly involves magic.

「It’s okay, Shishō! If she keeps working hard with her Staff Arts, she will reach level 4 someday!」

「Haru, not everyone can grow as fast as you, you know?」

The level of the skills required to become level 4 is 100 in total. In short, she needs to master her Staff Arts Skill, her only job-related skill, you know? I think I can understand now why the students want to support her.
