Chapter 40: Enrollment Season at the Academy of Magic

"Click!"

Spandam, who was enjoying 'dinner', looked at the gray-white stone in his hand with disappointment. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Partner, Uncle Ben's whetstone has cracked again, let's change it to a better one next time. Why don't you just use the Mana Mine whetstone that Uncle Ben saw in the blacksmith shop last time, it should last a long time!".

In the house that Catherine sold me, the Waste Sword said expectantly.

As he said this, Spandam threw the cracked whetstone into the corner of the room.

"This matter is aside, I said you guy... Those Mana Ores were all sold as equipment materials, and they were not broken stones for sharpening knives at all. It's almost time to be satisfied, will you pay the price of the 6,000 gold coins?!".

"But, Uncle Ben has always used Mana Mine to sharpen his knives, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Mana Mine is Uncle Ben's lover!".

This guy even started to burn as he spoke.

But again, looking at the pile of scrapped broken stone in the corner of the room, maybe it's really time to get a better whetstone.

Considering that the Waste Demon Sword has also taken on the role of a communication tool these days, and because the clone has to work hard to reproduce the magic array I left behind in the Undead Fortress, it is not impossible to use it as a reward for work.

"Alas. Are your friends weirdos like you?"

"Well, why do you say that?".

I turned my head a little confused and looked at Serena, who had become accustomed to doing her own thing.

As it was almost time for dinner, the little girl was giving Catherine a hand to make dinner in the kitchen.

"Bone frame, you said Mister Spendam is a magic sword. According to common sense, magic swords should not all be very powerful weapons, so only those rare ores with repair properties can be forged, why do you need to sharpen knives?"

While smearing the bread with jam, Serena complained in passing.

"Prisoner Spendham, what else do you want to say?"

"Well, that little girl is telling the truth. As a super magic weapon, Uncle Ben naturally has the attribute of repairing, and sharpening the knife is just to maintain the handsome and manly image of Uncle Ben at all times.

Hey, hey, hell know that you sharpen your knives to keep you fresh.

"You guy.. Who cares what the image of a sword is, and there is no difference between before and after polishing!".

"Speaking of which, Sister Catherine, tomorrow the admissions staff of the Academy of Magic will be here. Tutor Merlin will take me to the entrance test to the Academy of Magic, so you don't have to help me prepare lunch."

"Partner, you can't be regarded as not hearing your words, keep it refreshing, but it's the faith of the magic sword race!".

"Don't lie, how can you have this kind of faith! Looks like you're planning to fight a faith war with me. I'm not afraid to tell you that there was once a scholar who wanted to debate with my generation about who was more delicious, salty tofu brain or sweet tofu brain, and then he died. ”

After a pause, I noticed that it seemed like a strange line had just been mixed in.

After waving my hand and signaling the Waste Demon Sword to wait two minutes before the battle began, I turned my eyes to the little girl who was busy in the kitchen:

"Wait, Spendham, let's pause for a moment. Serena, what are you talking about?"

"It's the enrollment of the Academy of Magic... Woo, you're not going to have any bad ideas, are you?"

Hearing my inquiry, Serena replied with a nervous reflex.

Then she seemed to think of something. Inexplicably, he looked at me with the kind of "physical and psychological unacceptable" eyes, and said it in a tone like an interrogation of a prisoner.

This is what kind of skeptical look is going on, and the attitude of the two sisters towards the elderly makes me very unhappy.

"No, no, no, how could there be any bad ideas. If you think about it, I gave you the gold coins to go to the Academy of Magic, so it's better to say that I'm the guy who changed the fate of the little girl, how about it, then let me follow you."

Hearing me say this, Serena thought for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully.

"Well, that sounds like a good thing, but I refuse."

After thinking about it for two seconds, the answer was Serena's disgusted refusal:

"I don't know what you're up to, but Sister Catherine told me that you've been responsible for the recent events in town. You give me the impression that I'm definitely working on some bad idea right now."

…………

In the small room, Serena and I looked at each other.

"Really?"

"Well, no. ”

Serena nodded earnestly, and the conversation ended as she turned back to the kitchen.

"Hahahaha-ha-ha Puff, rest assured, partner, Uncle Ben is your strong backing, Uncle Ben will not say anything about this."

Suddenly I wanted to crumple that laughing garbage thing at the dinner table into a ball.

After unleashing a mute spell called [mute] on the useless magic sword, I watched in contentment as Spandam scrambled to jump around before accidentally falling off the table.

"Serena did the right thing, Teacher Essioin."

A short time later, Catherine seemed to have dinner ready, and walked out of the kitchen wiping her sweat.

I looked at Serena's triumphant look at the triumphant appearance of the villain, and followed Catherine out affectionately, as hateful as a dog's leg that had found a thigh to support her waist.

"In view of your unreassuring behavior, Mr. Eshuin, you will honestly guard your house tomorrow. Anyway, tomorrow is a very important day for Serena, and as Serena's sister, I won't allow you to make trouble. ”

"Well, if you don't go, you won't go".

"I knew you would say that. . . Huh?".

Seeing Catherine looking at me angrily, I had to give up on it verbally for the time being.

Verbally.

"Well... Teacher Essioin, you can just say yes, although there is always a very suspicious feeling... But maybe it's just that I'm thinking too much. Anyway, it's good that you understand, it turns out that Mr. Ai Xiuin, you occasionally say such reasonable and reliable lines. Really, if you were always so reliable, you wouldn't have attracted this kind of evaluation."

Catherine looked at me suspiciously, but finally sighed and spoke softly to me.

Oh, it's worthy of being a disciple of my generation, and it's still very cute when it's gentle.

But.. It may seem sad to say this, but it does seem like the first time I've been a mentor to Catherine that she's smiled at me for the first time she's been a mentor.

And.. I was going to sneak out tomorrow.

What should I do, I can't seem to say it now, I'm actually planning to perfunctory your kind of words.

"Well, that's it. It just so happens that Joseph's predecessor has asked me to do some personal business, and I will probably stay in the hotel on the other side of the adventurer's camp for the next two days, and if there is an emergency, I will knock this ore hard."

After leaving the resonance ore on the table, I was going to stay in a hotel for a few days.

It just so happened that the main magic array in the Undead Fortress was almost finished, and it was almost time to start the progress of establishing an ultra-long-range teleportation array here.

Due to the amount of information to be investigated, the behavior in the next few days will be suspicious.

Considering the possibility of being discovered by the clergy, there is a risk of revealing yourself as an undead. In order to avoid affecting the two sisters, they still live in a place with a large flow of people during this time.
