The academy ended sooner than expected.

After the individual interview, the main character returned to class 1 and finished explaining the situation.

The only important conclusion to draw from there is that we now have a holiday.

All days that were originally scheduled for exams were decided to be holidays.

Since it follows a weekend, it is like a holiday for the cadets.

As Rohan headed to the meeting place, he checked his phone and saw that the time was 11:40.

It’s just before lunchtime.

‘Now that I have some time, I’ll try increasing my training.’

If you want to learn the third sword, even if it’s a little awkwardly, you’ll have to use this holiday wisely.

After I finish my work today, wouldn’t it be okay to just hold the sword?

“Brother!”

“Rohan. Here.”

Rohan, who had been looking at the calendar and thinking hard, raised his head.

Zion and Clara standing on the street are definitely an eye-catcher even in the crowd.

Zion was wearing jeans and a knit that smelled like spring in April.

Judging by the size, it’s obviously not my clothes, and judging by the style, it’s definitely not clothes borrowed from Clara.

It was clear that it was a costume I had never seen before.

“What, you already bought the clothes?”

“This is the only new purchase I have. I plan on buying a few more today.”

“Oh.”

Rohan nodded with a short exclamation.

Zion asked, fiddling with his clothes for no reason.

“···Is this kind of outfit strange?”

“It’s strange, but it’s pretty?”

“!”

Aside from the saying that the face completes fashion, it seems like Zion already knows a style that suits him well.

Maybe it’s an innate sense.

“Oh, oppa, I···?”

“If I say more, my mouth will hurt. You are beautiful.”

The girls looked at each other and smiled brightly at Rohan’s unabashed compliment.

Clara lowered her head to hide her expression.

Zion takes a step towards Rohan.

“Rohan. If you ask who is prettier, it would be difficult, right?”

The elf girl asked with a deepened smile and a high-pitched voice.

Rohan lifted his head and looked at the sky.

You know me well.

“···Let’s move quickly. Where do you want to go from?”

It was in the afternoon that I met the real estate agent that Tigrova had introduced me to.

First, we headed to a large shopping mall located in the school town.

Since the academy finished early, there were a lot of first-year cadets around.

“Don’t you have anything to buy, oppa?”

“Oh, I have it, but I can’t buy it here. I can buy it later. I’ll ask you two for advice then.”

“Hmm?”

“To my sister and me···?”

Two pairs of eyes look at each other simultaneously.

Rohan raised the corners of his lips, gathered magical power into his fingertips, and shot it out.

It was an act that had absolutely no power.

The girls’ eyes widened as the intention of the release of magical power became clear.

“I found a new talent. Maybe you realized it while spending time together?”

“Oh, so you can use a gun too, oppa!?”

“I tried it once during this test. I couldn’t control the magic power, so the gun broke.”

“You mean it suddenly became possible instead of being able to use it from the beginning?”

“Oh. This time, I suddenly figured out the method. I was trying to use the skill when it popped into my head! ”

“···This is an unheard of case.”

The talent to infuse magical power into a projectile is not something that can be solved through education.

Just as some people have dimples when they smile and others don’t, and just as each person has different colored eyes and hair, these are elements that are given to them regardless of their will.

Because it was ambiguous to explain the concept of skill leveling up.

I’ll give up explaining and just get to the point.

“I want to get recommendations for handguns that two people can carry.”

Zion and Clara’s eyes widened at the same time, their interest piqued.

“My brother has a gun···!”

“If Rohan has a preferred style, it’s okay to recommend it. What model of pistol did he use on the deserted island?”

Rohan crossed his arms and stroked his chin.

I could barely recall the blurred name.

“Snowfall-75?”

“It’s okay.”

“It’s a decent mass-produced model.”

The corners of Rohan’s mouth go up at the feeling that he has already come to the right place.

Isn’t a consensus a good sign?

“I’ll believe you.”

Is there a gun that comes to mind when you see Rohan talking like that?

The two girls began to chatter and babble like canaries.

“Oh, I think a heavy pistol with a rotating bolt mechanism would suit you! Something that uses magnum ammo···!”

“If a gas-operated gun has a rotating bolt, isn’t it too big and cumbersome to use? If it’s called a secondary weapon, a stainless steel revolver is fine. These days, holsters are neatly made, so a 2-inch model is not inconvenient.”

“Still··· My brother has big hands and thick fingers, so I think a masculine gun would suit him···.”

“Well, that’s not wrong, and I understand. But I can’t give up the portability aspect.”

The deeper they dug into it, the more Zion and Clara’s opinions diverged.

Just looking at it, Rohan could already picture the future.

‘Just looking at this, I think I need to buy two.’

At some point, the group’s steps stopped.

Rohan started walking again.

“Let’s talk about guns after you finish shopping. The gun shop is open late.”

“Ah! Yeah···!”

“Okay.”

Rohan let the two of them onto the escalator first and then stood behind them and asked.

“So what do you want to buy first? Clothes?”

“Clothes are clothes.”

“···.”

Clara keeps her mouth shut and Zion gives a vague answer.

Rohan asked, feeling a strange air coming over him.

“What are you talking about?”

“Follow me and you’ll know.”

Rohan followed the girls as they got off the escalator.

We arrived at a store specializing in women’s underwear. Inside, we could see several female academy cadets.

“···.”

Rohan looked at Zion.

Zion raised the corners of his lips and spoke confidently.

“Isn’t underwear also clothing?”

“If it’s going to be like this, just call Lizamong a grapefruit.”

“Lizamong?”

“No··· Let’s go in.”

As Rohan entered gently without refusing, Zion and Clara began to look at the items with excited faces.

Zion grabbed a hanger and thrust it at Rohan as if showing off.

“I needed underwear, but I also wanted to buy some comfortable pajamas.”

The pure white fabric is a light yet transparent material.

Zion’s fingers are visible holding the clothes.

“···Isn’t this a negligee?”

“It’s classified as pajamas. Am I wrong?”

“Well, that’s not wrong. But… um…”

When it’s thrust right before your eyes, you can’t help but imagine it.

Isn’t it a bit too wild?

“Heh, don’t worry. I’m not so careless as to show my insides to just anyone.”

“Then that’s fortunate.”

Feeling a little stiff while pretending to be okay.

Zion found Rohan’s reaction secretly amusing.

“Rohan. Do you think it would look good on me?”

“Uh···.”

“Oh, brother! How about this?”

Clara liked the black color among the negligees, which contrasted with Zion.

He carried one and walked around Rohan.

Gegenpressing like an iron wall.

Rohan’s mouth went dry.

*****

Noah Frozenheart, who came out of the dormitory preparing to go out, spotted his prey.

After lowering his posture and wagging his tail.

As usual, he runs towards his friend with both arms outstretched.

“No! Illuminate!”

“···.”

“Huh?”

Ichinose, who I thought would naturally avoid it, does not.

He froze still as if lost in thought and did not move his feet.

It fits perfectly in my arms.

“Old age?”

Oh my goodness, Yui.

No, my real name is Ichinose Yui.

The first time I had dinner with a man outside my family. I tasted failure.

‘I’m looking back now. Why did you think it was possible without any assumption of failure? What was your basis?’

Did all the men who offered her a seat endure this kind of pressure?

Although it is certainly an understandable explanation that he had a prior engagement, I had various thoughts such as whether he was avoiding the table because he felt burdened or whether he was uncomfortable eating with me.

‘I may have become too accustomed to being respected…’

How dare you go around telling people to think of you as a man and not a woman?

The more I think about the times when I was only talking, the more I beat my head and reproach myself.

“Nose? Are you listening? Excuse me?”

Poke the soft cheek a few times while holding it.

Only then does the pretty girl move her head.

“Ah··· Are you here?”

“Why are you like this today? Should I just rest?”

“It’s okay. Just let it go. I’m suffocating.”

Ichinose breaks free from his embrace and starts walking naturally.

“Can I go shopping before eating?”

“Yes, that’s fine. What do you want to buy?”

“My breasts have grown again and my bra is uncomfortable. It’s suffocating!”

“···.”

Ichinose didn’t really respond to Noah’s words.

I picked up my walking speed while holding the sword tightly.

Noah just follows along, laughing as if he finds the reaction funny.

The academy city shopping mall we arrived at like that.

Noah and Ichinose get on the escalator.

“But why do men find this kind of flesh so good?”

Noah, feeling the men’s gaze, grabs her breasts with a questioning face and gently squeezes them.

Ichinose sighed and stopped Noah’s gesture with his sword sheath.

“···Stop behaving like that outside.”

“Eeeek~ Nose. Are you upset?”

“Just don’t do it because you’ll get a lot of attention. And don’t be agile either because it’s burdensome.”

“My dad said my aegyo was the cutest?”

“···.”

Ichinose knows.

If you say something here, Noah’s charm will come back twice as much.

It’s best to just go to the store quietly.

“Ah! It’s heaven now that the exam is over! Heaven! I have to sleep in tomorrow!”

“If you stay up too late, the academy starts and it becomes difficult.”

“It’s okay. Nose will come wake you up··· Huh?”

Noah, who had been running around Ichinose with great energy, suddenly stopped walking.

Ichinose couldn’t help but stop and look at him with doubt at his sudden actions.

“Why is that?”

Noah stood still and looked carefully into the interior of the store.

A voice spoke from the towering black hair.

“Isn’t that Rohan?”
