Chapter Index

    A month has passed since I returned.

    The period of time I stayed in the divine world was only two days.

    Two weeks have passed in this world.

    It seems that the perspectives of the new world, Earth, and this world flow differently.

    This year… no, it’s last year.

    They said he would die after last year, so if you calculate the date he left, he should have returned at least a week ago.

    If I were alive.

    But my return date was a week later.

    So, it was natural for me to think that I was dead.

    I was just waiting in front of the unclaimed grave, hoping for a miracle.

    Agnes, Gloriana, Solara.

    There wasn’t a single person who didn’t shed tears when they looked at me.

    Even teachers who rarely show emotions had red eyes.

    I heard that my father, who had not been seen, came and forcibly dragged me to the family home.

    It was said that he had not eaten or slept to the point that his life was in danger, so it was an inevitable choice because his body was deteriorating.

    He said he was worried after hearing the news and sent a letter, but he managed to stop him from coming to visit right away.

    Many things have passed and today.

    “How long has it been since this…”

    January 8th.

    Winter break is over and the academy starts.

    There is no longer a need for separate personal training, and from now on, I also have to make up for my attendance.

    Because I need to graduate for the future.

    Bea, the senior, set off first to prepare for the speech requested by the academy.

    Agnes and Gloriana are said to have attended the school opening ceremony in different places because they were princesses and saints to the outside world.

    Fritas said that Reese sang it separately.

    As a result, the only person left next to me was Solar.

    Have you just been growing out your hair?

    Her black hair, longer than when I first saw her, was tied back tightly.

    Seeing her hair grow longer than I expected, I was able to realize and reflect on how little interest I had in her.

    “Berador, this seat is empty.”

    “Uh.. okay..”

    But it felt awkward to be alone with Solar.

    It felt like I was alone with a friend of a friend.

    Moreover, Solar’s behavior now was more like a loyal knight and nobleman with a clear superior-subordinate relationship rather than a lover.

    From giving up my seat to standing behind me while I’m sitting on a chair.

    Especially the way you speak.

    “Are you thirsty?”

    “.. No..”

    From what perspective does this seem like a conversation between lovers?

    Usually, I felt it a little less because of Bea and Agnes, but now it really hit me.

    People around us started to mutter when they saw us.

    ‘..Solar…wasn’t it? ‘Is he out of his mind?’

    ‘The other person is the youngest son of the Sorut family who is betrothed to the royal family.’

    ‘Aren’t you being arrested for treason?’

    ‘I was anxious to get ahead.’

    ‘Oh, no way… he’s also a count in the north.’

    ‘Then how are you going to explain that?’

    Most of them… no, all of them were negative opinions about Solar.

    What I can hear means that Solar can hear it too, but she shows no reaction.

    He was only looking at me and looking for any inconveniences.

    It was annoying to spread strange opinions, but I couldn’t make the first move.

    If I move, Solar will be fine, but the arrow may fall back on Agnes.

    And even Bea, who was engaged to me before that, will be condescending.

    “Ha…”

    I don’t know what it would have been like in the past.

    Right now, I’m not suited to using my head.

    -Wow!

    After returning from Earth to this world, I awakened the mana circuit that had been resting in my heart.

    After the battle with Zeus and absorbing the power of Eros, my mana was such that it could not be measured even in the status window.

    Mana, too vast for one human being to possess, landed on the training ground waiting for the school opening ceremony.

    – Coo coo coo coo!!!

    The air rang as if a bomb had exploded right next to it.

    At the same time, through careful mana control, it was ensured that it would not be directed at the instructor or the cadets who were still.

    A guy who was just spreading strange opinions… No, only bitches felt huge pressure.

    As the usual noisy training center suddenly became quiet, the instructors felt puzzled and raised their spirits.

    I checked the mana gushing out to see what was going on.

    As the instructors dodged here and there to avoid contact with their mana and applied pressure, cold sweat began to flow from the cadets’ bodies.

    I don’t know how much it is because I haven’t felt it, but it probably made breathing a little difficult.

    Let about a minute pass like that.

    “Krrrr..!”

    The sound of a cadet gasping for breath was heard.

    ‘This is enough.’

    I thought it was enough so I collected the mana all at once.

    I felt cool in my mana circuit, as if I had stretched for the first time in a long time.

    -Kkii profit!!

    -Cudangtangtang!!

    When the pressure suddenly disappeared, the shaky cadets fell backwards.

    Because it was a quiet training ground, the noise only seemed louder.

    The instructors who were generating the mana spread the mana, wondering if it might be the work of demons.

    Some even went out to find the principal.

    As I stretched and turned my head, I met Solar’s black eyes, who were looking at me despite the commotion. She grinned and signaled me to be quiet with my right index finger.

    Then Solar nods with an moved face.

    The instructors still couldn’t figure out who did it, but it was the teacher who had just come and placed his hand on his forehead.

    Professor Jan, who is shaking his head in front of me, looks like he already knows.

    However, the fact that he doesn’t move or approach me means that it is somewhat extenuating circumstances.

    The teacher, who came to see me without knowing what was going on, breathed a sigh of relief and said, spreading mana.

    “The school opening ceremony will proceed normally.”

    The instructors, who thought the cause of the commotion was the devil, expressed doubts, but the teacher admonished them and continued with the school opening ceremony.

    “Hmm..”

    Was it a little excessive?

    *

    As expected, the school opening ceremony, which started in such an atmosphere, did not attract a good response.

    “Berador..!”

    As a result, Bea, who was hosting the school opening ceremony, came up to me and put her fists on her sides and grunted.

    “.. Sorry, sorry. Still, it was great.”

    “Keuhum..! of course. It’s me.”

    I’m glad I felt better quickly.

    I stroked Bea’s silver hair, who looked triumphant.

    Not only Solar, but Bea also grew out her hair a lot.

    I almost thought that if I exaggerated it a little and made it grow a little longer, it would reach my waist.

    However, there were no tangled or stuck parts when stroking it.

    Moreover, rather than a smell coming from the head, it was only fragrant.

    When I brush my hair like this, it feels as good as touching a cat.

    On the other hand.

    “You should do the same for me. How hard did I prepare?”

    “Okay, come here.”

    Agnes’ hair was short and red.

    I think it must have been cleaned up again recently so it doesn’t even touch my shoulders.

    But it was so thick that even if you just put your hand on it, it was as fluffy as a puppy.

    After a while, we walked towards the classroom.

    Even though it was winter, the wind blowing felt like a cool autumn breeze rather than a cold one.

    I arrived at the lecture hall feeling that kind of wind.

    The classroom I entered after a long time welcomed me with its appearance unchanged from the first time.

    Upright desk and chair.

    And even the eyes looking at me.

    As someone who was often away from the classroom, I expected this to some extent.

    The last time I officially showed my skills was during a tournament.

    But after that, I skipped lectures and focused on personal training, so it was natural that people would not look at me kindly.

    Bea and Agnes stood out so much that they were also talented enough to be recognized by the academy.

    So, we are entering classroom A and taking classes together.

    It looks like he wants to challenge me right away.

    It would be difficult to ignore the people next to me.

    Bea and Agnes are the ones who will leave the academy and take over the leadership of the empire.

    Because I am a man, I cannot be the head of the Sorut family, but these two are different.

    Although it is unlikely, these two might become the head of the family or the empress.

    No cadet was stupid enough to risk being picked on by these two and challenge me.

    “Ah.. Hello..! Well… did you have a good vacation…!”

    Professor Jan, whose trembling voice I haven’t heard in a long time.

    I guess I haven’t gotten over that habit yet.

    “Where should I go after the lecture?”

    “Well, how about going to a cafe after a long time?”

    “That would be great, Agnes! It’s been a while since we went together.”

    Bea and Agnes are chatting and making plans for later.

    “Thursday… I think it would be better to lower your voice a little.”

    Solar is anxious about being caught by Professor Jan.

    “Now.. take a good look..!”

    Professor Jan writes formulas on the blackboard that are so difficult that no one can understand them.

    – Crunchy

    The cadets are just getting used to it now.

    And me in between.

    When I looked from the blackboard to the window, snow was falling from the sky.

    I looked at it without saying a word and tapped my fingers on the desk.

    The daily life I had longed for.

    It was so peaceful.

    So boring.

    I guess…

    I think it will take a long time to adjust to a peaceful daily life.
