76 – Actors Gathering

Obviously, the demon beasts had been following Professor Weis’ back and retrieved all the summoning stones. And if the wrist is severely injured, he will not be able to move because he will have to be treated in the church all day long.

The professorship at Nova Academy was a position that no one could do, so losing him is a great loss to the Dark Star. No matter what happens, he will recover and make it possible to participate in the entrance ceremony.

Then, it means that another dark star planted a summoning stone… The number of monsters summoned wasn’t that many, and they weren’t that powerful either.

Even if Lars used the starlight sword and the hero’s abilities, they weren’t monsters that would break easily. Rather, he struggled because he was not easily cut, and even Spica had to help him.

I sighed while sitting at my desk writing down the contents of the novel I thought of.

‘It is said that there are definitely people who belong to the dark stars among the freshmen… But there are a lot of them without even knowing their appearance.’

Nearly 200 freshmen enter the academy. Since more than 10% of them were said to be members of the Dark Star, it became complicated because it was impossible to doubt everyone.

My head pounded at the fact that there were close to 120 students from 1st to 6th grade.

‘Isn’t there a physical examination when you come in?’

To be called

, It must have been made up of people like Shear who did not have an imprint. Those who do not even need confirmation of loyalty through brainwashing and education since they were babies.

The sword of starlight in Lars’ hand, confirmed with their own eyes, tells the leadership that he is a warrior, and continues to harass him.

Should I raid and wipe it out? All of them can be slaughtered without even saying a word.

…But I don’t have time for that, and since the meeting place changes every time, I might just waste time visiting.

“Once you interrogate Wise, you’ll find out.”

A dark star who rose to the position of an academy professor. Since he knew where the seal was engraved, it was not difficult to threaten him using this as an excuse.

I wrote down a few more things as I remembered what would happen in the future and went to sleep.

“About last night’s incident. I think the person posted on the bulletin board is the culprit.”

In the morning of dawn when the morning sun cautiously poked its head out, while running around the academy with La Land after a long time, she was speechless at the sound of fat.

The person who posted on the bulletin board, the person who said that the lady was dressed strangely yesterday morning.

…That’s me.

“Can you tell me why you think so?”

I asked cautiously as if I didn’t understand.

“I heard on the way yesterday that the first time the soldiers found it, they found it near the academy building where the banquet hall was held. They said that they were doing something on the ground, but when they were caught, they ran away with incredible speed. Shouldn’t you prove that you are innocent?”

“…You’re right. It certainly makes sense.”

That’s true… If you carried that many summoning stones and dressed suspiciously, anyone would think you were a criminal and get arrested right away…! I had a lot to say, but I didn’t.

While I was running without a word, a familiar face came up to me and started running.

“Ah, hello, Master!”

I never thought I would hear a sound like a fat ttongttanji twice in the morning. I couldn’t help but crumple my face.

“It’s not decided for now, so please feel free to call me like before, Mr. Lars.”

“…Sorry…”

I felt sorry when I answered like I was dead. What should I do with this timid hero of starlight?

“Who is this? I think I’ve seen a face somewhere.”

Laland, who was playing on my right, took an interest. Originally, Lars had known each other since the second semester of the first year, but he met him a little earlier.

“My name is Las Pios, the eldest son of Viscount Pios’s family. I am a freshman at the academy this time.”

“You’re the one who stood in front of the beasts yesterday and pulled out a sword like starlight…”

“That’s right. I’m Laland Ursada from the family of Count Daeungseong Ursa. Please take good care of me.”

There was still no word at the end of the plain greeting. One did not speak without a purpose, and the other was timid and found it difficult to speak.

And I… I was afraid that I would say something subconsciously, so I couldn’t say anything.

“”…””

The awkward running with only silence ended quickly. It was because Lars couldn’t keep up with us and fell behind.

They said as they ran side by side to match the speed of Lars, who was gradually slowing down.

“…First of all, I’d like to apologize. I’m not meant to be someone’s teacher. I’m just a butler next to my master, Lady Europa.”

Teaching the young lady how to use the sword is also daunting. I just checked if the movements were correct based on what I saw, and when I was confident, I spent a lot of time making up for my shortcomings by bumping into them.

His skills are already at the level of an expert. Considering my level of swordsmanship, which was only at the level of copying, there wasn’t much to teach him.

To the point where it would be embarrassing to call him a teacher.

“That…”

The same sullen face as when he told me not to call him Master. If a member of the opposite s*x saw it, it would be a face that would comfort them a lot, but he and I are the same man. There is no consolation.

Still, there is work that must be done.

“However, I can do a little to identify the weak points by bumping into them from time to time. And it would be helpful to have experiences with other people along with my lady.”

This timid warrior of starlight who can use the sword of starlight, the deadliest weapon for demons, must grow stronger than in the novel.

“For a while, I started by running around the academy with Laland-sama and myself early in the morning. It was said that physical strength is national strength, and the body controls the mind.”

It is correct that I clean up the water I spilled, and I just need to tie the broken line again.

“Thank you…! Best regards!”

Even though he brought up the story that he could not become a teacher, his sullen expression shone brightly. What on earth do you want to learn from me? I finished talking, and I asked the car I was curious about.

“Then why did you say you would take me as your teacher out of so many people?”

“That’s… The way you fight monsters with your bare hands without any other weapons is so cool… I wanted to learn it!”

Las said everything he had to say with his eyes shining while hesitating. He said with a laugh for the same reason as a boy of his age.

“I’m sorry, but what I showed you to Lars is a secret skill that is passed down to the butlers in the Taurus family, so it would be difficult to teach it. And it took a long time to pass it on, so I can’t recommend it.”

When I explained it while showing my scarred hand, I ran with him until the sun rose in the morning with a sad look on his face.

I politely bowed my head to Lars, who finished the hop first, and Lars, who was sitting on the sidewalk after finishing with me.

“Then, I’ll see you in the morning. Mr. Laland and Mr. Lars.”

“That’s right. I hope you follow me well in the future. Lars.”

“Yes!”

Laland, smiling lightly as the members lined up for a run in the morning, and Lars, who was just excited, were shining in the morning sunlight.

‘It looks like a real novel hero.’

Their looks were so shiny that their faces crumpled on their own.

Sirius, who finished his rewarding run today, returned to the room where his owner was staying and inspected Europa and Luitena’s room.

Unlike Ruythena’s room, which was tightly closed, Europa’s door was slightly open. Let’s carefully open it. Even though it was still time to fall asleep, Europa, who was sitting on the bed, opened her mouth.

“…Why come now?”

Seeing her deep voice and her eyes dark as the abyss, Sirius, worried that something had happened to her during the night, approached her and sat down on her bed.

“What happened?”

Although it was an erratic answer to her question, I was able to hear what she wanted, perhaps because she had been by her side for a long time.

“I had a nightmare…”

“Do you remember which dream it was?”

“It was a dream of you leaving. I even remember the look on your face. I didn’t want to leave, but I had no choice but to leave… It was a dream of only looking at your back. But what I hated more was…”

Tears welled up in his pathetically dark eyes.

“I woke up from a dream like that, but you weren’t there. That’s why I felt like I really left…”

“…It’s okay. You’re here now.”

While wiping away tears as he spoke, he always had parting in mind.

Wouldn’t the owner of the body come and take over the dominion, wouldn’t it be impossible to come out of the unknown dream forever, wouldn’t it just become a beast mad with blood, wouldn’t it meet the end like William in the novel?

So he wouldn’t hurt her badly.

When she showed her bitter expression, she stretched her arms towards him without saying a word. The corners of her mouth went up slightly, even though she was embarrassed to know what that gesture meant.

She was asking to be hugged without saying anything that she could approach and hug herself.

The serious worries I had in mind flew away and I answered with a smile.

“If you don’t say anything, I don’t know what you’re asking for?”

“…”

Ignoring her sarcasm, she kept her silence and even closed her eyes. She desperately wanted his arms, but she must have expected something else in her heart. Her face gradually grew hotter, and she felt a light touch on her lips for a moment, and she opened her eyes in surprise.

“What…What are you doing?!”

Kiss Lani, she said she wanted her first kiss from him, even though she did it secretly. However, she should be angry with Sirius for being in such a place and in such an atmosphere.

“I’m not a bad person for snatching my ex’s first kiss.”

She lost her words as she raised her two fingers to her lips as she did the other day. Inside her, unable to control her anger at herself, she muttered as she turned her back and hugged her knees.

“…Really mean. Annoying.”

“Then do you want me to do it again or should I stay still?”

This time, as soon as he stretched out her arms, he ran all over her body and threw her into her arms, shockingly laying her on the bed. She seemed to have let go of her anger, and she was smiling.

“I just want to stay like this.”

He leaned her head against her chest and patted her head as if she silently agreed as she muttered.

If her inner circumstances were more comfortable than this, she wouldn’t have confessed to her a long time ago. With a complicated feeling, she thought of what was necessary and thought of her future work.

He needed his side. The people who will be their hands and feet secretly from others.

I was worried about where such people would fall, and pinched my cheek for not answering.

Meanwhile, in the mansion of the Taurus family, the priest and William had been talking since morning.

“Half of us, including myself, will go to the capital and serve the nobleman. The remaining members will be used as diners, and we are confident that we will do well if asked to do anything.”

“Isn’t there a guarantee that Sirius and the lady will not be harmed? I will only allow three people, including you. No more than that.”

“How can we harm him? You’re too lazy.”

“Do you have enough money to live in the capital?”

The priest shook his shoulders startled. When they came to the Taurus family’s territory, they had consumed all their travel expenses. Even there, she sighed, not thinking of her money, and William took out a large gold coin from her inside pocket.

“This should be enough to stay in the capital for a semester. Instead, as I said, only three people can go.”

“…Can’t it be done with four people?”

A priest who bowed his head while pretending to put a large gold coin into his inner pocket. Eventually, when it was agreed that her three priests were going, it was she who offered her prayers.

“My lord… Please stay there this time…”

Is it a prayer to Sirius or a prayer to Luna, the god of the moon?

I don’t know who the prayer was for, but it looked very earnest.
