There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field

22. June

The homeroom teacher stared at me.

His black eyes seemed to swallow me.

“Hmm. No matter how you look at it, it’s human. It looks like a human.”

muttered the homeroom teacher.

I asked back at his murmur.

“Teacher. What part do you think Luna or I are not human?”

It was because I honestly thought that the skills I showed were at the level of common sense.

In particular, if I showed my magic to Arin, he would be able to follow it without difficulty.

He answered kindly.

“The magic and movements you guys showed have the feeling of looking down from above.”

“Human beings are infinitely weak in themselves, so they endlessly aspire to a higher level and have repeated the process of overcoming the strong.”

“But it feels like your gravity magic and Luna’s bare-handed attacks are all completely crushing the weak…”

“Generally, the race that uses that method is the typical fighting style of the Demon Tribe, who use magical power to overwhelm humans.”

hmm. You’re just saying the right thing.

Every time I saw Master’s magic, I felt a sense of chaos.

Her magic was like a disaster, and there were many times when I thought that no matter how many times I practiced, I would fall short of it.

So I, who always looked at her back, studied and studied to imitate her.

For example, if Master were to cast thunderbolt magic that would cover the entire academy, I trained myself to cover the size of this gymnasium.

that’s me now It was Sirius’ specialty and fighting ability.

To put it in a funny way, it seemed like Little Amelia.

“Um… I see… I’ve never thought of it that way. Am I human?”

The homeroom teacher also smiled and nodded.

“What an obvious story~ If you were a demon, you would have already died in my hands.”

My hand naturally went to the ring on my hand.

The thought that I should cherish it in the future came up quickly.

“Now. I’ve seen your level well. It’s quite good. It’s a level that won’t be strange at all even if you join a warrior’s party. There’s still a little way to go, though.”

The homeroom teacher slapped me on the back as if to encourage me.

“Take a good look at the hero~ Maybe not~ He’ll take you.”

teacher. If I win that, I’ll be in real trouble.

Arin had to be the wizard of this great warrior party.

If Seria chose me unreasonably, the answer would not come out.

I jumped from the demon realm to the human realm to make the hero quit, but it is absurd that I, who became a demon, become a member of the hero party.

If that actually happens, I’ll be at my worst.

Wouldn’t it be a big deal if the magician of the hero’s party was killed in one snap of the devil’s finger?

Anyway, my homeroom teacher told me that it was okay to go back now, as I was fantasizing.

I thought I had to go back and emphasize to Luna never to take the ring off.

After the interview, I ate at a restaurant that was almost closed.

My head was complicated.

The biggest problem was that I wasn’t clear on what kind of attitude I should take.

The plan I prepared when I was in the Demon World was to reveal my identity to Seria as soon as I arrived in the human world.

I tried to tell you one by one all the terrible strategies the imperial people had committed, and for the sake of this crazy country, don’t sacrifice yourself, forget about the warriors, and run away with me.

But now I was closer to the demon Sirius than the human June.

Master is the strongest demon. I’m Amelia-sama, and I’m in love with the demon king-sama’s daughter, Luna.

Demon blood flowed through my body, and my eyes glowed red with the ring removed.

No regrets. Of course, becoming a demon wasn’t my free will, but I didn’t want to resent Luna.

to her too. Because of her circumstances. And I love that child

but. No matter what I thought of my identity, my soul definitely remembered it.

All the journeys I have chosen and walked are for Seria’s sake. That fact doesn’t change.

I made up my mind again that no matter what I did, I would break her free.

Even if that’s what ruins me.

Back in the room, I was still thinking about my future plans.

And the most reasonable way to prevent Seria from being a hero is, of course.

How to prevent a warrior’s party from graduating first. was

And I didn’t think that there was no possibility at all if I, Luna, and the other members were well organized.

Of course, with the ring on, there was a chance that it wouldn’t be enough, but judging from the current level, this plan seemed the most reasonable.

However, the conversation with the homeroom teacher during the day still bothered me.

If Seria wants to party with me. then what should i do

This was a really important option.

From my point of view, of course it is correct to say absolutely no, but from the perspective of an outsider who knows nothing

You will be recognized as an idiot who goes to the academy and refuses the greatest honor of being a warrior party.

Perhaps not only Seriana’s homeroom teacher, but everyone in the academy would doubt my identity.

If that happened, it was clear that our fake identity game would soon be exposed.

My butt hurts…

Depressed, I went out to the terrace.

A moderately cool breeze brushed my face.

I wasn’t a very thoughtful person…

A sigh came out of my mouth.

“Why are you sighing like that?”

When I came out, next to me, Seria, who seemed to be wearing pajamas, stuck her head out from the other side and looked at me.

Because of you. you. you.

But I couldn’t answer like that.

“It’s just… These days, I feel like I don’t know myself very well.”

I answered weakly, omitting the details.

Seria didn’t say anything and suddenly stood barefoot on the ledge on the terrace of her room.

“Yo… Hero?”

Surprised, I wondered what she was up to.

As if walking on a tightrope, she took one step over the railing, then lightly crossed the wall between my room and hers and landed on the railing of my room.

Her blonde hair and white nightgown blew in the wind.

Her blue eyes entered mine.

“I… I’m going to jump from now on.”

“yes…?”

“Here and now. I’m going to jump off the floor.”

It didn’t sound like a joke.

She spread her arms out and counted.

“three.”

no really?

“two.”

why not?

“one.”

After that, her body seemed to slowly slip behind the railing.

Indeed, when she made the motion to fall, I was paralyzed.

My body jutted out towards her, holding her around the waist and bringing her back to my terrace.

“What are you doing, Seria?”

I grabbed her by the shoulder and gave her a genuinely angry face.

I’m going to die of confusion because of you, but you don’t know my speed and play such bad jokes.

Her pupils widened as if in surprise for a moment, but soon returned to their original expression.

her next words.

“You say you don’t know you well… Yuwol…”

ah.

Only then did she realize that I had called her Seria, not a hero.

The way she spoke was not businesslike honorific, but the way I used to get irritated with her when I was younger.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

“I finally understand who you are… a little bit…?”

I felt the strength in my hand holding Seria’s shoulder loosen.

Seria covered my face with both hands while holding me by the shoulders.

She slowly pulled my face toward hers.

I was helplessly watching the scene.

Her delicate features caught my eye.

“I missed you. Yuwol-ah.”

me too. Ceria.

Her lips touched mine.

The second kiss with her was a completely different kiss than the first one in the woods.

It was much thicker and more sticky.

It must have been enough time for a boy to become a man and a girl to become a woman. This.

The ecstatic moment passed.

Emotions, including the affection for Seria, which I had been holding back to hide my identity, hit me like a tidal wave.

But… but… I really know this is nasty, but…

Forgive me for not being able to do this though. Ceria.

Because this is all for you.

After a deep kiss, silence passed between us.

Both of us were breathing heavily, our faces red.

And after I caught my breath, I moved a little further away from her.

She tried to take one more step toward me, who was moving away.

I held out one hand to block her approach, and with the other, I turned my face away from her and covered my mouth.

“I’m sorry… Hero… I’m sorry… But I’m not that person…”

I spoke in a trembling voice.

I tried to make it as natural as possible, but it didn’t work out.

“…Yuwol-ah…!”

Seria pitifully called my name, no, what was my name.

“…forget about today… and I’m not Mr. Yuwol… I’m… Sirius…”

“Please… why… why are you running away…!”

Seria shouted at me in a voice mixed with crying.

“…I’ll just go in… from now on… please don’t do that kind of joke again…”

I went back to my room and drew the curtains as if I were running away, leaving her on the terrace of my room.

“…Yuwol-ah…!”

Her voice, as if she hadn’t left yet, came through the window.

As if my tear glands were out of order, the tears wouldn’t stop in my eyes.
