I Will Smash Everything With My Passive Skills

029. Cleaner (1)

It was a few days later that the heretic inquisitor escaped from the evil beast. It’s another story that he tasted the humiliation of Berry’s head as he caught him returning to the Holy Land.

Anyway, Veris was asked to do one thing by the dean, amidst the school closure order that was running toward the end.

‘Clean up.’

Originally, he had asked Berris to clean the dungeon, a job that would normally be done by test instructors or professors who had enemies at the academy.

Of course, Berris tried to refuse at first out of annoyance, but seeing the dean’s pitiful appearance in the dean’s office lifting his sleeve and taking pictures of tears, Berris finally had no choice but to accept it.

Anyway, receiving and eating at the academy level is about to explode because the stomach is full. So, can you do that little thing?

“How is it, Arwen?”

“I am getting used to it a little bit more.”

With the deadline for cleaning approaching, Veris was tutoring Arwen in swordsmanship.

Arwen, who is in the middle of training to put the power of the spirit into his sword, has a face that shines more than ever. She must have been interested in wielding her newfound powers.

“Eight!”

─Jing!

Seeing Arwen like that, Cecilia was also burning with the desire to compete, not the desire to compete. She is in the same S class, and Arwen, who lives in the mansion with her, feels like she has moved forward to her. Even Cecilia is focusing on her training.

So, the mansion was heating up with the heat of training. Her passionate atmosphere was definitely different from usual, to the extent that Gunther or Princess Maria, who had visited not long ago, shook their heads when they saw her.

“Oh, Mr. Berrys. I heard that it’s not long before she goes down to the dungeon.”

“Yes. I’m thinking maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

“Then I can’t neglect training even more.”

Saying that, Arwen nodded her head, and Veris gave her a cheesy smile.

She’s actually Veris, who never even thought about taking anyone to the dungeon or being together.

She did it, but Arwen and Cecilia, who heard the news that she had to go down to the dungeon, and even Gunther and Maria decided to go together, so the size of the group suddenly grew.

It didn’t matter anyway from Berris’ point of view. Instead, even if he slashed monsters and ate experience points, it didn’t mean much to Veris now.

“I will protect Berrys!”

Cecilia raising her fist with her spirited face. Gira Berris, who had a subtle yet cute corner of her, nodded her head.

“Yes. Cecilia protect me.”

“…… I will also protect Veris-sama.”

“Yes. Arwen protect me too.”

“My divine mana is specialized for protection, right?”

“There is a child who specializes in defense with my spirit power.”

They are oddly competitive.

However, having a well-intentioned competitor certainly wasn’t a bad thing, so Veris sat quietly watching the two argue.

“I’ve never heard in my life that a spirit lord uses a sword.”

“It is said that in the distant past, elves handled spirits and swords together. Could it be that Cecilia is lacking in learning?”

“Wow!”

When I listen to the strange exchange of back and forth, I feel like my mood improves without knowing why.

“…… I am the woman embraced by Veris.”

“What, what kind of small grain is that!”

However, Cecilia’s speech is far from ordinary.

Veris, who knew what it meant to be hugged, had no choice but to let out a small sigh and intercede with her.

“Couldn’t it be that you mean that you were hugged unilaterally last time?”

“…… Yes.”

“It’s better not to say things that others will misunderstand. Do you have the awareness that you are also a saint of the Holy Land?”

“Ugh.”

Sometimes Cecilia forgets that she is a saint herself, and she becomes the innocent girl of her age.

She immediately lowered her head because she still felt that way.

“I’m not scolding you. Just…… It’s because you’re worried about Cecilia.”

“Really?”

“Very cares about everyone around you.”

Cecilia opens her eyes round or not, Arwen walks around her.

For some reason, the atmosphere was so peaceful that Veris couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

* * *

“Brother, how can you only visit the hospital once when your younger brother has broken several of his ribs and is lying in the hospital, dying? No matter how cold he looks on the outside, I know that he is warm-hearted on the inside and has dreams of men, but even though I am sad, I am so sad that I can’t stay still. I know that you are a busy man. But the relationship between people…….”

“Be quiet. And what kind of death are you wandering about?”

Perhaps Gunter, who would have been a rapper if he was born on Earth, gave Veris a whining.

No, after all, the man didn’t have a fatal disease, and just because she broke one or two of her ribs, I wondered if anything big would happen.

It seems that Veris wasn’t the only one who didn’t want to hear Gunther’s voice. Arwen and Cecilia, as well as Maria, who was on par with him because of her many words, turned their ears away.

“Kuhm. I just want to convey my loyalty. Didn’t I mention that I tied up an uninvited guest in the northern district?”

“Frozen loyalty.”

“Brother!”

Berris, who answered that, continued her steps.

The place they are walking now is a place that makes people shrink naturally thanks to the thin oxygen and endless darkness.

Dungeon.

Veris and the others, who had entered the vast basement of Vera Academy, were passing by slicing monsters non-stop.

Ah, of course, Gunther wasn’t using monsters nonstop, but he was teasing him.

“You talk a lot.”

Berith’s head hissed at Maria’s muttering.

Strong Princess Maria. She, too, knows that she talks a lot, but she says that.

Besides, I don’t even know why I ended up going to this dungeon. She said she would visit her strangely often after she was found out, but I never thought she would follow me here.

“Kuhm.”

At Maria’s bruise, Gunther cleared his throat.

She seemed to know that the guy who didn’t yet know that Maria was actually the princess, Maria Theresia, talked a lot.

“By the way, Veris-sama, why were you given this mission?”

“…… There was a request from the dean.”

“Please? The dean himself?”

“Yes.”

Maria turned into a rabbit’s eyes, surprised by Veris’ calm answer.

Well, it wasn’t a reaction I couldn’t understand to some extent. The fact that the dean directly asks a student who is only in class B is not that easy to understand.

“Awesome.”

Her majesty as a princess seems unthinkable, giving her a thumbs up! Maria lifting.

Arwen and Cecilia, who had already heard of her identity, did not even hide their confused expressions.

“hehehe, it seems that she noticed the greatness of her older brother.”

“…… How can people with a little discernment not know?”

At Maria’s low voice, Gunther gave a big nod.

As the word nangjungjichu fits perfectly, Veris was originally that kind of person.

Wouldn’t it be obvious that a dragon of similar size is sitting between weak herbivores? You’re welcome, of course herbivores will bow their heads in front of that unknown power.

“To my surprise, I knew it from a very young age.”

“When you were young?”

“Ah, how it happened is that Marie-sama is from the Kingdom of Gaul, so you may not be familiar with it, but the Haruen family, one of the influential families in the northeastern part of the Empire, and the current head of the Wittelsbach family are very close.”

“…… What do you mean?”

“I heard that because of the friendship you forged on the battlefield, the two of you promised to pair a boy and a girl if a boy or girl were born to their respective families.”

“Eh?”

Maria’s eyes returned to Veris stupidly.

It felt a little out of the blue what this big man was trying to say, but at least she seemed to know what he was trying to say.

“Hoo! What are you going to do by hiding it? It is said that my older sister, Beatrice, and older brother Berrys have been married through an arranged marriage from the two families in the past.”

It was Gunter’s voice, his face hardened as if he had seen a scene in history.

But the problem is that Cecilia and Maria’s heads turned like lightning when they heard the sound for the first time in their lives.

“Beatrice? A candidate for the next archmage?”

“Jeong…… Ragged marriage? What is that? Doesn’t that mean I know it?”

Two people are restless about something. Arwen let out a small sigh and shook her head, and Veris muttered as she rubbed chestnuts on her gunther’s head.

“Evil!”

“Stop acting under the cover.”

“…… Yes.”

Gunter lowered his head while tinkering with the bump on his head. The meaning of thinking of my older sister is commendable, but wouldn’t it be very nice if the method was similar to that of alienation?

After such a small incident, the party continued to advance through the dungeon and soon reached a small clearing.

It is a place where traces of a fire were left, probably because students stayed there during the entrance exam. The group decided to take a break there for a while.

Cecilia, who sat for a while thinking about something, quickly slipped away and approached Maria, who was sitting in the corner of the clearing.

“By the way, Marie.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Maybe… ….”

“Yes?”

“You know.”

“Yes. Please speak. Holy Maiden.”

This is Cecilia’s fidgeting. For a while, Maria questioned her actions.

“By any chance, do you like Verice?”

Damn it.

It is a fastball that can be thrown in and out. As a result, Maria’s body hardened as if under the spell of the gargoyles in the legend.

However, it felt like Cecilia saw some potential in her.

“That’s right.”

“Oh no? Me? Why? Because you’re handsome? Strong? Because you’re kind? Are you a man who is good at keeping secrets? Ho, ho ho! Didn’t you think I was too easy? Why am I with Berrys? Of course, since we go to the same class, it is true that we want the school closure to end soon, but you are overthinking it!”

“Ha ha.”

Gunther, whose head is full of flowers, would understand this.

Cecilia thought so and let out a small sigh.
