Chapter 225: What Mortals Look Up To

February 7, 8 a.m

"Mr. Headmaster, are you listening?!" Gruberu patted the table in frustration, "I'm talking to you about something very important!" ”

"Gruberu, calm down," said the headmaster of the Ottoman-Trestein Academy of Magic, taking a puff of his cigarette, "you have been repeating this in my ear for three days, and if I continue like this, I will suffer from Alzheimer's disease in advance."

"But it's really important! Louise Francis Lou Brown Du La Vallière has summoned two demons like never before, and one of them is the legendary Nether Warrior," Gruberu excited

Osman shook his body slightly at the words Nether Warrior, as if he was feeling uncomfortable

"But now! The young man we thought was a civilian! He was also confirmed to be Tsunadaruu! Gruberu's tone trembled a little with excitement: "What a discovery! Both of them are contemporaneous with the Supreme Three Princes, and they have not appeared in more than a thousand years! ”

"So what?" Osman, who has always been known for his humor and funny, was unprecedentedly calm at this time: "Gruberu, what do you want to explain?" ”

"That's a report to the royal family," Gruberu's excitement cooled from the reaction

"Do you want to kill those two children" Osman said helplessly, "Listen to me, we will not know about this matter, and at most we can only tell Nobleman Louise alone, after all, she is the contractor of the two of them"

"Dean Osman, there's something I don't know if I should talk about," Grubelu said after a moment of silence, "There's a rumor in the academy, it's really a rumor, and we didn't bother to inquire."

"Dean, you are the archmage who inherited the name of Ludiab," Gruberu continued, after making sure that Osman had not overreacted, "that archduke is in charge of nothingness, not the fifth element as it is commonly called, but all hidden truths."

"Texts, legends, and history, these are the things that the Grand Duke pursued and mastered."

"Gruberu," Osman said suddenly

"Yes!" Gruberu immediately straightened up

"I know you're interested in this kind of thing, but it's better not to ask too much" Osman stood up, then touched the bookshelf standing next to his desk, "Truth is not something that everyone can grasp"

"Anyway, remember what I said, only the two of us will know about this," Osman glanced at him, "can you promise me?" ”

"Of course!" Gruberu immediately swore, "Please rest assured! ”

"Then there will be no problem~ I'll continue to read the book," Osman smiled and sat back in his seat

"Then I'll take my leave," Gruberu bowed, turning to leave

"The Hounds of the Gods and the Servants of the Gods, is it true that the actions of those people have angered this land," Osman sighed softly, "Tsundarauun, that's not a noble mark."

"That represents the revival of the ancestors"

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― the dividing line of the awakening

"Pain" Pinghe muttered, and then slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a white ceiling

"You seem to be sleeping" Someone hit himself in the face a few times with something "There is no hospital here, if you see white, it means that you have gone to heaven"

"Pain, pain!!" Hiraga jumped up in a hurry, "Don't take care of people like this!" ”

"Do you dare to speak harshly?" Neck strangled by a towel "Don't think I'm willing to take care of you"

"Sorry, sorry!! Please let it go! I'm still a patient!! Hiraga scrambled to break free

"The towel was loosened

"Ahem! Why do you want to take care of me," Hiraga complained in a low voice

"She went to sleep, I just changed a towel for you" Chong shook the towel that was still wet on his hand and said, "I just came back too"

"Where have you been?" I don't know why, but I always feel that the conversation between the two of them is much more relaxed

"Kitchen" Chong said, "The currency here is not universal, and the yen doesn't seem to be worth much here."

"Could it be that ~" Hiraga showed a narrow smile, "Chong, are you going to ask for food~"

"Boom!" A heavy blow to the abdomen

"I'm going to cook" Chong Leng coldly wiped his hands with a towel, "Barter, you have to do it too, if you want to eat in the future"

"I see," Hiraga replied strugglingly

Twenty minutes later

"Speaking of which, where did Louise go to sleep?" Hiraga asked after getting dressed

"Faculty dormitory," Chong said after making the bed

"Hey, I suddenly found out, Chong you are a good wife, right?" Hiraga smacked his lips and said, "Awesome."

"Boom!" This time it's a tabletop table

Thirty minutes later

"Oops, I'm going to die," Hiraga covered the gauze that had thickened by three centimeters and groaned. "Chong, you should be lighter."

"I've heard one thing from others," Chong looked back at him with a cold face, "People like you can't hurt."

"Who taught it! It's so irresponsible! Hiraga was dissatisfied, "It's going to hurt!" ”

"Is it" The voice full of murderous intent is so terrifying, you must not joke with Chong anymore

"But I don't know how to cook, do you want me to serve the dishes?" Hiraga asked softly as he walked into the cafeteria, as the people around him were staring at them

"Take this glass of water," Chong took a glass of water from the counter after looking at him for a few moments, "and went to hand it to the woman at the third table on the left, remembering, to say something like a waiter"

"No problem," Hiraga nodded

A minute later

"Woo and Dale (I was beaten)," said Hiraga Saito, whose entire face was covered in bruises

"Do you still want to serve the plate?" Chong said indifferently

"Don't dare" Hiraga shook his head hurriedly

"What did you say to her?"

"Dear lady, this is the water you want, please drink it slowly, be careful not to choke to death"

"You go die"

kitchen

"Oooh! Isn't this our sword!! A hearty laugh came from the kitchen: "Great! Finally see me! ”

"Oooo Hiraga only felt that his cervical vertebrae were about to break, and his thick arms were not like intimate greetings but more like the claws of the devil who dragged him into hell

"Look, everybody! This is the commoner demon we defeated the strongest aristocratic in the third grade -- Hiraga Talent! "The uncle, who looked like the first chef, raised his hand, and Hiraga was lifted by him, with his feet off the ground

"So handsome!"

"It's a real sword!"

"Our swords! Oo!!oo The kitchen was filled with cheers one after another

In the midst of this cheer, Chong silently walked out of the kitchen

"Oh, it's Chong," Chong, who had just walked out of the back door of the kitchen, saw Louise with a sleepy face

"Hmm," Chong nodded

"Since you're here, it proves that you're awake, right?" Unconsciously, Louise's name for Hiraga has also changed

"I'm being cheered on inside," Chong pointed to the boiling kitchen, "I can't stand it if I go in casually."

"Did that dog get carried away with such a little feat," Louise said dissatisfied, "It's clear that you're the one who finished for him?"

"It doesn't matter, his performance is more interesting," Chong said indifferently

"Your personality is so good, show yourself more" Louise walked up to him, barely reaching the height of his chest

"I'm not used to acting," Chong shook his head, "Besides, that's no use"

"Ugh~ a completely different personality from that dog," Louise patted him on the shoulder, even though the action required her to stand on her tiptoes

"Woo!" Originally, she was wearing flat shoes (shoes worn by old women when they used to go to the street to buy groceries) and a petite figure (not giant. Why is there still an imbalance in the quality of milk? So she slipped

"Sha" Chong grabbed her sleeve and lowered it smoothly like a baby

"Wouldn't it be more elegant?" Louise dissatisfied

"Grab the Cloak"

"Then please grab your collar!" Louise turned around and walked away, "Keep up"

"It's really like" Chong muttered in a low voice, because it's all tsundere?

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― dividing line of conversation

"So, you're the center of attention now," Louise said with jealousy, "They're even more dazzling than my master, what a great demon."

"He's the only one in the spotlight," Chong frowned at the words "master" and "demon", but he still spoke

"But aren't you? That last spell surprised the instructors," Louise said, tilting her head

"It's a very simple question," Chong said indifferently, "I know that you don't just need to know magic to become a nobleman, but anyone who is a nobleman will definitely do magic."

"That's right, for the kingdom, nobles who don't know magic will be stripped of their titles" Louise nodded, "but it has nothing to do with you, you're not expensive, sorry"

"There's nothing to apologize for" Chong half-narrowed his eyes as if he was a little sleepy, which was a habit of his, and its meaning was "to explain simple truths to unfamiliar people, but to get bored by it"

"The nobles don't compare them to themselves because they make magic magic, because they themselves do"

"The common people don't look down on them because they use magic to make them, because they don't say softly," said the class, "the higher ones don't look directly at those who are in the same position as them, and the lower ones don't revere those above them."

"I don't understand," Louise said with a blushing face

"The sword that the people are looking for must not be too sharp, but it must be unsheathed for them" Chong said indifferently, "I am so sharp that I can hurt people at any time, but he will not, because he is an inferior sword"

"Only people who are born in commoners can better understand and help them, and people in high positions, no matter how active they are, can only look silently" sublime said in a low voice, "Because the identity is different, although they have been saying that they are sacrificing for the people, they are always noble and inviolable, so noble that even arrows have to avoid them"

"In this case, the arrows will only hurt the people behind them, and then it will be too late," Chong stopped

"The place where the light gathers is actually the emptiest" He is a being who is looked up to by mortals, so he cannot protect anyone

Gods and heroes, the "status" of both sides is decided as early as at birth

The gods will be enshrined on the altar, and the heroes will fight for the gods, but don't forget that all heroes are "people"

That's right, because of this, the hero is the sword that the people really need, the sword that can really be drawn and held at all times

People who are on the same horizon can understand each other, and those who have long stood at the end of the line just need to watch

Louise looked at the young man in front of her, about the same age as herself, but much older than them in body and mind

No one would want to wield such a sword, right?

"Therefore," Chong slowly came to his final conclusion

"To put it bluntly, I am looked up to, and he is needed"

"He is the only one who can be trusted in the end"
