After finishing the care of the commissioner at the garrison in Rastock, we finished our lunch with a chow from the knight's mess and continued our scouting.

What I'm peeking into now is the maids' resting place.

I don't mean to peek at their changing clothes, the purpose is Camilla's exclusive maids.

''Hey, really don't do that. That doesn't make it sound like I'm talking and walking around.

'What? No? Everyone thinks it's coming from Rosalie.

No way, you really shouldn't do that!

I mean, what's the real story?

Oh, I'm not going to be able to say that to you.

No, wait, is that true? Are you kidding me?

So I'm not going to tell you...

Yeah, you're Camilla's personal maid, Rosalie, and you've finally realized that you've been running your mouth about something outrageous.

When I say that I can't say it out loud, it means that there are things I can't say.

'Nah, no! No, no, no, that's not possible! It's not there!

I hurriedly denied it, but the maids around me have a very subtle look on their faces.

'It's not! It's really not me, I'm not telling you anything! Ugh, ugh....

Okay, okay okay you're not Rosalie.

The other maids began to hurriedly quiet Rosalie, who was cornered and cried out, and the other maids began to hush her.

''But if it wasn't Rosalie, then who told them........''

'Ah! Maybe someone saw Rosalie putting away the bedding...

Yes, everyone knows that Rosalie is in charge of Lady Camilla.

That's it. Even the bedding is different from the other knights, Lady Camilla.

Mm-hmm, I see, so you guessed that the information flowed from there, isn't it interesting to watch from on high?

Or rather, it seems that the fact that Camilla wet herself in the bed, has been recognized by the maids. Congratulations, congratulations.

Our crafting is almost perfect, so that should do it.

All we have to do now is wait for them to get their tail fins and swim around.

Even when the knights go to the place where they rest, they still seem to be talking about Camilla.

Probably, unlike Japan, where there is no shortage of topics on TV, radio, and the Internet, the knights are in a sense hungry for entertainment.

You can see them whispering here and there.

Camilla, who is so stern and compassionate, and who is the object of the knights' admiration, probably never thought that she would be a bed-wetter.

''Is it true?''

There was something wrong with your body, wasn't there?

Well, I suppose you've had a lot of heartache since you summoned the otherworlders.

That's not going to change my allegiance.

Well, of course I do. I'm not the only one.

Yes, it would be more of a treat...

Yeah, there's one guy in the mix who looks dangerous, but let's pretend we didn't see him.

It seems that even here, it's becoming more and more likely that Camilla wetting the bed, but I don't like the fact that Camilla's personality is not wavering.

I was peeking into the knights' resting place when my eyes were caught by one of the knights.

'Hey, Pawl, wake up, oi!

Well what's the matter, are you working already?

Yeah, dude, you need to buck up and don't get licked by these kids.

No, I didn't think that those little bastards would lick this cowboy, Paul, that's not true.

Then don't go overboard and break it.

Well, I don't think that's a guarantee since it's all in Riesenburg's interest.

I recognize the knight named Pawl, who was woken up by a fellow knight at the edge of his resting place with a smirk on his face.

That's right, the knight who had beaten Funayama up a lot.

''Kent-sama.......this guy.......''

"Yeah, I know, I know, I want to do something about this guy.

Fred also remembered Pawl, he said, and occasionally explored his behavior.

'What is this Pawl guy like?'

"I'm not very good at drinking...

You know what you can do with a drinker's license?

"I think... they've made a few mistakes...

After the break, Paul thought he was going to head to the training grounds for earthy magicians, but he turned to the training grounds for attack magic.

According to Fred, the knights were rotating from place to place, monitoring and teaching.

Paul walks around behind a classmate who is training in attack magic, holding a wooden stick in his right hand.

This wooden stick looks familiar too.

It seems that word is spreading among the classmates as to what kind of person he is, and some of the girls stiffened their bodies just as Paul walked behind them and failed to activate their magic.

When that happens, Pawl looks at you as if you deserve it and mercilessly swings his stick down.

''What are you failing to do, you want to die in an actual battle!

'Aghhhh I'm sorry, I'm sorry...'

"Idiot, who told you it was OK to rest! Now get up and carry on!

'Agii I'm sorry...'

Even after Paul hits them in the back, the girls get up, tears streaming down their faces, and try to continue their training.

'Hey, come on, you can't get better at this by hitting me that hard!

What are you.......trying to disobey me?

'Yes, it is! We grew up in a world where there was no magic, and all we were taught to do was chant words we didn't know in a world we didn't know, and then we were taught to use magic... how could it work?!

The one who took a bite out of Paul was Midori Motomiya, who belongs to the kendo club and is known as the Sword Princess among the girls and the Sword Demon among the boys. 

''Shut up! If you have time to talk back, shoot as many magic shots as you can, and you think you can fight against a demon because you're so scared of this stuff? They're going to kill and eat you for real!

He said something similar with Funayama, and at the time I thought he might have a point... but now that I look at it closely, it's just an excuse to justify my violence.

If this continues, Hongu-san is going to get beaten up as well, so let's try something that came to mind.

Paul walked dazedly to the corner of the training ground and sat down at the base of the tree and immediately began to snore and sleep.

Yeah, that's what happens when you take three sleeping pills.

Once you've fallen asleep, you've got a lot of work to do, and the mug for ale has come into play again.

But you're not going to soak up the covers like you did with Camilla, so it's going to be hard for people to understand, but you should be alone and in shock.

Seeing Paulo start to doze off, his classmates stopped their training to look at him.

''Motomiya-san, what do we do...?''

'I'll keep training because I'm poor when the other knights come in, and either way, if I don't improve my magic, there's a good chance I'll die.

'Yes, we have to do it...'

Yeah, but now that we're out of the way, let's calm down and practice.

Yeah, okay.

Throwing a sleeping pill directly into the stomach seems to be a very effective method.

If you don't wake them up by hitting or kicking them, they'll probably stay asleep for seven or eight hours, and it's possible to rescue your classmates in the meantime.

The problem is, since there are sleeping pills, there might be some distraction pills and so on, so let's go back to Volzard and check with Muell-san about that.

''Kent-sama........this is effective.......''

''That's right, if we use this method to put more and more knights to sleep, I think we can rescue our classmates without spilling blood for nothing.''

"I think I'd better take the carriage and run...

''Yes, that's true... but we've never handled a carriage or a horse before, so we may not be able to move it properly...''

I've seen carriages in movies and dramas, but I've never actually driven a carriage, and I don't know how to handle the reins.

''Do you want Fred and the others to move it?''

That's... probably impossible...

'What? Why? Can't you all move the carriage?

"Horses are afraid of the devil...

"Oh, yeah...

If it was Fred and the others before they were alive, they would have been able to move the carriage, but now that they were skeletons, the horses were scared and it was difficult to approach them.

''Kent-sama.......train with the five of us.......''

''That's right, you can learn to handle the carriage with everyone you rescued and get them to help with the rescue mission together.

"The carriage would be able to move more quickly...

When we were first summoned, we were all put in a carriage and taken to the tarmac.

I was left behind, though, and I sang Donna Donna and saw them off.

So there should be enough carriages in the garrison to carry all of us, right?

That should speed up the rescue.

It would be nice if the rescue could be accelerated, but I feel like my actions have been random...

"Master Kent things change and you must do what is best for the moment...

"I see, I see...

There's no way a kid like me can see into the future, so I have to do what I can do now and struggle to keep up.

Besides, I can't do this mission by myself, so I think it's best to go back and talk to the five of us and get advice from Reinhardt, Donovan and Klaus.

Then let's finish up Project Maisa and take care of the evening for the chairman of the committee before returning to Volzard.

Camilla Riesenburg has been observing the status of the training on a blistering basis.

The progress of the training is probably directly related to the promotion of your plan, so it's natural to be concerned about it.

Her classmates are wearing the arm bands of servitude, so they shouldn't be able to harm her, but Camilla only wears the body of her golden armor.

''That was........meant to show off her status and as a countermeasure against magic stray bullets.......''

Fred is right, the gilded armor is a silent presence on the training ground.

At first glance, she seems to be continuing her inspection with a dignified expression, but today's Camilla occasionally throws a glance in a different direction.

At such times, a sullen, anxious wrinkle always appears between her eyebrows.

I don't need to do anything about it, but I'm starting to see the effects of Project Maisa, so let's put the finishing touches on it.

Since she's wearing her gilded armor, Camilla is conspicuous anyway.

However, there are moments when the knights' gazes can't reach her while she's making the rounds of the large garrison and training grounds.

That's when it's time for me to finish up.

After inspecting the training of the earth attribute magicians, Camilla goes back to the building where the office is located.

On the way there, she seems to pass between the quarters and the warehouse, but there is no one in sight, as is customary.

So, let's whisper to them through the ventilation hole in the storage room.

'Bedwetting! Lady Camilla?

'Idiot, speak up...'

I'm sorry but you're kidding me.

No, I've heard it's true...

As she was passing by, Camilla stopped and looked back at the ventilation hole with an awkward movement that almost sounded like a giggle.

Then, scurrying around, she huddled beside the vent, and began to listen.

The ventilation hole was made up of thin boards stacked blindly, making it impossible to see what was going on inside from the outside.

Nevertheless, he continued his monologue from a place that was in the shadow of his luggage.

'How can I believe such a story...'

But if it's true...

How old do you think Lady Camilla is?

But what if it's true?

That's not true!

Camilla was relieved when she said it in a monologue.

'But if it's true, then I'm disillusioned...'

'Well...'

Camilla's face paled and she began to walk dazedly as she was able to leave the side of the ventilation hole with a movement that seemed to make another giggling sound.

Her appearance is like a royal family that is losing a battle and running away in defeat.

"Master Kent has turned into Black Kent.

After entering the building where the office is located, I used the shadow of the stairs to hit the same kind of monologue for her.

By the time she reached the office, Camilla looked like she had run out of HP, so much so that the guards guarding the door were giggling.

After taking off her armor and going to the desk in the office, Camilla held her head in her hands and let out a deep sigh.

''Huh... what am I doing... pathetic...''

It's only one day, but it seems to have worn Camilla down quite a bit.

If it's going to take a long time to rescue her, I guess I'll have to set her up again in a day.

When I headed to the doctor's office in the evening, instead of taking a nap, the chairman was engrossed in treating his classmates.

Apparently, the knight-type mock battle was over and the injured people over there were coming in droves.

A girl with a blue bruise on her face and somewhat unfocused eyes.

A boy who is holding his left shoulder and moaning like I did some time ago.

I feel as if I've wandered into a field hospital.

'Priority is given to those who are bleeding badly or who have been hit hard on the head!

Yuuka, you shouldn't push yourself.

"Yes, Mr. Chairman, we can still put up with it...

I'm sorry guys, I'm sorry...

Probably, when I was in Japan, there would have been some people who would have complained if they were made to wait in such a state, but seeing the chairman who was desperately continuing to receive treatment, I couldn't complain, could I?

I mean, if this is the case, the chairman is going to collapse, right?

Searching through my pockets, I took out the blue case I brought with me just in case, and threw a single pill that would help recover my magic power into the chairman's stomach.

I don't know how effective it will be, and although it's a quick fix, it's better than nothing.

After a while, the chairman, who had been working on the treatment, stopped and began to look around.

'What's the matter, chairman?'

'What? Oh I had a little prince in my life...

What? Prince...?

The boys, who were being treated for a large laceration on their arms, have a look of incomprehension on their faces.

Apparently, it seems to have been a quick fix.

I mean, haven't they been given a potion or something like a potion to aid in the recovery of such magical power?

It didn't seem to be a dramatic recovery, but the chairman was able to finish treating his classmate who had suffered an urgent injury.

'We'll have to eat later...'

The Chair told her without making eye contact with Erna and sank down on the couch.

Immediately, she put her hand on the chairperson's back and let the healing magic flow.

''Ah........Prince.......''

Pulling the blanket up to his mouth, the chairman repeatedly grips and opens his left hand under the blanket.

This means you're supposed to grip it, right?

The chairperson reached out and grasped his left hand to lay it on top of him while his right hand continued to heal, and the chairperson squeezed it tightly, intertwining their fingers together.

''Thank you....''

The chairman of the committee started to sleep as it was.......................but this means I can't go home.

I finished flowing the healing magic, but I can't go home........................what should I do?

Well, it's until Erna comes back, so it won't be that long.

I also took a break and thought about what to do when I returned to Volzard.

I had to tell the five of them about the rescue mission using the sleeping potion, I'd have to ask the garrison to train the carriage, and I'd have to check with Muel-san about the potion, but more importantly, Manon's misunderstanding hasn't been cleared up at all.

I'm holding the chairman's hand and thinking about Manon, this is really going to be called a rubbish charlatan, but I'm still thinking about it.

Besides, if I don't know what Beatrice is thinking, it's going to be the same thing all over again...

I mean, I know it's okay if I'm not wobbling around, but I can't just abandon the committee chairman, Beatrice is coming from over there, Manon is cute and....

Ah, what should I do now, it's too difficult for me, with a relationship deviation of less than 30, to do it.

"What? Maybe you were leaking your thoughts? Ughhhh............huzzah'

"Master Kent you will have the Chairman, my daughter, my daughter, my lord's daughter and Camilla as well.

'No, no, no, Fred, you can't do that much.'

"But, Master Kent I'm thinking...

"Gee, I mean, don't you wish for a harem?

"If it comes true the Riesenburg will be polygamous as well...

'Ugh ... is that so? Well, we're not in Japan...

One word from Fred and my mind wobbles.

Because it's a different world, and I got to be a little bit of a cheat, so that makes me dream about it.

When I go back to Japan, I'm just a clunker, but in this world, I'm making money in my own way as a clunker, so I'll be able to make a living....

But when I compare myself to adults like Klaus, Donovan, or Kurtz, I'm not good at all.

If I start talking about a harem like that, it would be the end of me being killed by a slightly evil old man.

"Kent-sama.........the caretaker has returned.

''Roger that.......I'll worry about it when I get back to Volzard....

Erna returned after quietly opening the door to the examination room, and after seeing the chairperson's sleeping face and hesitating a bit, she called out to her.

''Saintess, it's time for you to eat...''

Hmmm ... okay ... okay ...

While replying to Erna, the chairperson squeezes my hand.

I squeezed it back from me as well, then relaxed, and the chairperson's hand pulled away.

The chair got up and smiled as she folded the blanket, winking at me so that Erna couldn't see her.

I watched the chairperson leave the examination room and returned to Volzard.

If possible, I'd like to meet up with the five of them and talk about the rescue mission, but after the course is over, I'll have to find out where they are....

I walked out of the shadows of the alleyway to the front and aimed at the guild's entrance.
