172.Is What You Are Doing Now a Funeral? (6)
“Milia. “Why are you wearing a maid’s uniform?”
“How is it? Does it suit you?”
“It suits you, but…”
Although she was a lovely and cute maid with a basic face, I was worried that her worldview had suddenly changed. Milia is so lively that this dark fantasy-like worldview seems like an ordinary, everyday thing.
It’s a world without dreams or hope.
“Hehe.”
“Milia. “It’s cute.”
“Hehe, thank you! Karina! “No, saint!”
As soon as Karina praised him, see how his acting cleared up. Does it make her feel that good to be praised? Lennie and I chuckled at that sight.
“Sleep, lovely maid. “Can you take us into the cafe?”
“Huh! No, I will guide you.”
Milia acted like an elegant maid and guided us into the cafe. In the cafe, in addition to familiar faces, there were also unfamiliar faces.
Are they 2nd or 3rd graders?
“Stand, saintess!”
“Oh, welcome, saintess!”
It’s scary. I sighed as I saw the students wearing maid and butler uniforms bowing in unison.
I suddenly feel like I have arrived in another world. Was this world such a refreshing and lively place? No, it’s refreshing and lively enough. In both a good and bad sense.
…I don’t know.
Just enjoy it.
Because it doesn’t look like assassins will come here. If he can hide in such a lively atmosphere, he is a great guy. We went to the center of a cafe created by remodeling an empty classroom and prepared a congratulatory address.
The only way to prepare was for Karina to calm her mind and assume a pious posture, but preparation was preparation.
“Don’t be too nervous. “I only tell it to students.”
“That makes me more nervous.”
“Just relax, Karina.”
“That’s right. “You probably won’t even know what we ‘re talking about because you ‘re looking at Karina ‘s face her anyway, right?”
Millia made the point well. Today, she didn’t wear a veil, so Karina’s well-groomed appearance was exposed. The male students were already out of their wits and were staring intently at Karina’s face her.
“Evil! Why are you pinching me?”
“Are you crazy?”
“It’s unfair! You saw it too!”
…I guess they were a couple. I turned my gaze away from the male student who was being unilaterally attacked and observed the cafe closely. There was a possibility that it might have been equipped with a strange device like the martial arts competition earlier. While checking, I also checked the tunnel I made.
Hmm. It’s fine.
In this case, an escape route has been secured.
If the ceiling collapses, we have to take them straight to the tunnel.
Anyway, if the broken ceiling piece from the chandelier fell on Karina’s head, Lennie could bounce it off her with her hand her her her, so there was no need to worry about getting hurt.
“Then let me start the congratulatory speech.”
Hmm, Karina cleared her throat. Everyone’s eyes focused on Karina at that voice. Karina began to recite the congratulatory speech with slightly red cheeks.
It was a little different from the martial arts competition, but this time it was usually good content, so everyone applauded after the congratulatory speech.
I’m glad it’s a peaceful process.
There is no such thing as a prince who wastes time on fishing grounds.
But where did the 1st prince go? I don’t even want to think about it because the 1st prince is so annoying, but since the 1st prince is the 1st prince, it’s hard not to care at all.
Because only Karina could not be sure that she was the target.
If they kill the 1st prince as well, wouldn’t there be chaos in the empire? Their goal would be to bring chaos to the world.
Especially if the evil beast is the Harpas Church like in the original work.
After. I think Karina’s curse will be cured if we get rid of those b*stards quickly.
It was a curse they placed, so if we catch them all and kill them, the curse will disappear.
The problem is that there is still a long way to go before that happens.
Those guys started going on a rampage from the beginning of the second year.
“Sleep, saint! Please come this way! We will serve you with all our sincerity!”
“Who else?”
“You really want to receive guidance from another maid… ?”
“No, because other people didn’t approach me at all.”
You’re a bit curious.
“I decided to take care of Karina! Because I’m close!”
Ah, so Millia came forward because it was burdensome. Well, she said, it was the wisest choice. Since the two are close, there is no big problem even if they make a mistake, and from Karina’s perspective, Milia would be better than the nervous maid.
“Okay. Please take care of me.”
Millia and Karina looked at each other and smiled. When I secretly looked into Karina’s eyes, I realized that she was so cute that I was dying for her. You’re being treated like a younger brother. Since Millia usually acted like her younger sister, it was natural for her.
We were guided by Milia and headed to the table. It was in front of a sunny window. Milia guided us and spoke excitedly.
“What would you like to drink? By the way, we also have coffee, black tea, and milk tea!”
…Are there only three?
Well, this isn’t a professional cafe, so there’s no such thing as iced Americano.
Ah, I want to drink iced Americano.
I’ll try making it later.
“I like black tea.”
“Me too.”
“I will also have black tea.”
Because it’s annoying, we need to unify it. We looked at Milia’s back as she quickly disappeared, and then we talked. There was a lot to talk about, such as future schedules and impressions of her cafe, so the conversation continued until time passed and Milia served her tea.
“Voila! Black tea has arrived~”
“…Oh. It smells good.”
“It’s true. “I think the temperature was just right and the tea was brewed well.”
“It was boiled well.”
Actually, I don’t know much about tea, so I don’t know much about it other than that it smells good.
“Hi-Hi. “I boiled it.”
“Oh my, is it really true? “I guess I can leave the tea making to Millia from now on.”
“And while I’m at it, mine too.”
“Hehe, I’ll boil it for you later too! “No, I’ll boil it for you!”
“Thank you.”
The atmosphere was friendly, as if the assassination threat just moments ago had been a lie.
I wish it could continue like this, but since the mission and the assassin’s sneak attack were clearly certain, I pretended to look at the window and checked to see if there was anything unusual outside the window.
…It’s so peaceful that I think I’ll relax.
And, despite my nervousness, the peaceful rest at the cafe ended without incident.
———–
“What’s next for the Magic Department?”
The magic department is a magic demonstration, so you can just watch it comfortably. After hearing it from Elisa, it seemed like she could see creative magic.
…It was then that I realized that magic could also be created.
Of course, there is no such thing in the game, and I didn’t think it would be possible for a student to create a new magic in real life.
“The Faculty of Magic is simple.”
“Because they are practical people.”
“Still, it’s too simple to just write ‘Magic Faculty Demonstration Hall’ on the door.”
The liberal arts department even decorated the area around the door, but this place was like, ‘You know what? It’s like, ‘Come see me quickly.’ Is there anyone who can guide you? As I looked around, a familiar figure caught my eye.
“Elisha.”
“Ah, ah, hello…”
Elisa hesitantly approached us, wearing her school uniform as usual. That lack of confidence convinced me that Elisa was real.
There is no other person other than Elisa who can naturally pull off that kind of crazy move.
“What are you doing here?”
“Uh, uh, serving customers…”
“It’s too far in the corner for something like that.”
“I’m scared of talking to people…”
Is it still too early for Elisha to start serving guests? I sighed and tapped Elisha on the shoulder.
“Elisa. You can do it. So don’t be too downcast.”
“That’s right. Elisha. You just have to do it slowly. “Don’t be too scared.”
“That’s right. Just think of the humans who come as walking corn.”
“Corn?”
Why is there corn there? I looked at Lennie at the strange choice of words. When Lennie made eye contact with me, he scratched his cheek and avoided my gaze.
“No, it’s just like that.”
“Thank you…”
“Then will you please guide me inside?”
“Yes, yes…”
Contrary to Millia, we hesitantly followed Elisa, who led us inside, and entered the Demonstration Hall of the Magic Faculty.
As soon as we opened the door and entered, the eyes of the magic school students immediately focused on us.
“Karina has arrived…”
“I guess you came to give a congratulatory speech?”
“…”
“Karina. You are truly beautiful.”
“Oh my, Miss Martina.”
Martina, a nice person, approached us with a gentle smile.
Since he is the first-year representative of the magic department and is close to Karina, did he step forward on behalf of the second- and third-year students? No matter how junior you are, the title ‘saint’ would be burdensome to approach.
“The magic demonstration is scheduled to start in 30 minutes. “How about you rest over there until then?”
“Oh, thank you.”
“Miss Elisa, can you help me over there?”
“Yes, yes!”
At Martina’s words, Elisa hurriedly walked to the group of students inspecting the magic demonstration hall. The dangerous appearance made her a little worried, but she’s not just a child, so she’ll be fine.
“I will guide you.”
We were guided by Martina and headed to the table in her corner. Perhaps it was a table for VIPs, but it felt more luxurious than other tables.
“There was no need to go this far for such a nice place.”
“Don’t say that. “It is not difficult to give a good seat to a saint.”
Martina answered with a grin and disappeared, saying she had to go conduct again.
We are the only ones left.
“The magic school has a very different atmosphere.”
“There’s something about a wizard’s unique atmosphere.”
“It seems like something very practical.”
It certainly was. Just by looking at them, you can see that the design was roughly designed and made to be practical. There were many things that were put out for decoration that were difficult to understand with ordinary sensibilities.
For example, a kettle with two spouts with lids on top and bottom, or two plates placed on top and bottom at some distance. I even wondered why the cup didn’t have a handle for something that looked like a mug, and when I held it, I found that scratches were formed in the shape of my hand.
…There are so many strange things.
“How do I use this kettle?”
“Couldn’t they have put something else up and down?”
“That seems plausible.”
As I was looking at the amazing items, 30 minutes passed in an instant.
When the time came, we quietly climbed up to the podium at the magic demonstration venue and prepared to recite congratulatory speeches. Karina cleared her throat this time, looking much more relaxed.
“…Then, let me start the congratulatory speech.”
Karina’s beautiful voice began to resonate in the demonstration hall.
