I was walking nonchalantly towards the first aid station, listening to the alarm-removal bell, Khan, Khan, when I was approached by Marianne.
'Thank you for your hard work, Mr Kent,'
''Ah, Marianne-san, good job, I saw your fire attack magic, it's amazing.......''
'Oh, dear, it's nothing compared to Mr. Kent.
The fact that it's not a big deal is outrageous.
My Henachoco hero is at the level of running away with his tail between his legs.
Marianne, who had been smiling and laughing, suddenly tightened her expression and stared at me intently as she began to speak.
''If it wasn't for Kent-san's subordinates playing an active role, I think Volzard would have suffered immense damage. I would like to thank you again, thank you very much.
'I don't want to thank you... Volzard is a city that's very important to me, so it's only right to protect it.
I'm glad to hear it. That means you'll be able to have my daughter as well, right?
Huh? No, no, no, no, I'm not making a big deal out of this, am I?
I felt like we were talking about something very good, but you switched the subject in an instant.
'Oh, you'll consider it an important city because it's the home of Reece, who I'm welcoming as my wife, won't you?
No, no, no, it's too early for me to have a wife or anything like that and...
'Oh, Mr. Kent, I told you the other day in the dining room. You told me that in Volzard it's not unusual for a girl to be independent of her parents at the age of fifteen and start a family of her own.
'But, but I'm new to Volzard and yes, Reece hasn't turned fifteen yet, has she?
'Oh really but that's okay, it's only a couple of months until the New Year and if it's in the form of an engagement, there's nothing wrong with that.
Engaged, my dear, I'm afraid it's a bit of a rush...
'Well, it's a bit of a problem if you suddenly call it an engagement, isn't it? But you see, Mr. Kent, my family agrees with my husband, me, and Reece himself, so if you feel like it, please let me know whenever you feel like it.
What is it, Mr. Krauss?
Don't worry, I won't let you disagree.
"Hi, hi...
For a moment, Marianne-san looked like a Yatsuma...or rather, I felt like she was filling in the outer moat too.
Smiling, that's a nice smile, Marianne-san left, but I couldn't stop the sweat from running down my back.
I started walking towards the first aid station again, but there was something of a crowd around the cafeteria.
I wondered if they had started distributing breakfast.
As I approached, it looked like a group of young adventurers had gathered there.
You'll be cured if you put a spit on your face.
Shut up. You didn't hurt yourself.
Bastard, I'm the guy with the goblin bite...
You bit that one yourself, not a goblin's teeth!
'Huh ... a real angel ... oh, I could die already ...'
Come on, come on!
"Idiots! Whoever rushed me, come over here and apologize to your angel!
Oh, I have a very bad feeling about this, but........angel.....
I thought about going home like this, but then the chairman of the committee would be angry with me, right?
Let's take a look at the situation from the edge for a bit, let them know we're safe and leave.
''Excuse me, could you let me through for a moment...''
'Oh! Let me through? You know what? You've got to wait your turn, right?
I was about to ask him to let me through the side, but I got stared at by some strong-looking brother.
''No, no, I'm not here to treat you, I just have a message for you...''
What? The message...
When I thought it was unlikely that they would let me through, another strong-looking brother who seemed to be an acquaintance of the strong-looking brother spoke up.
"Hey, Kurta, isn't that guy........a demon hunter?
'Oh? Ugh, this guy........the Demon King.......
Perhaps hearing Kurta and the others' voices, the adventurers who were lined up in front of the aid station turned around in unison.
''No, it's true that I have my subordinates working for me, but a 'demon king'.......''
Hey, I'm serious...
Um ... can you let me through for a moment...
I don't know what it was, but the young adventurers took two quick steps off to the side to make way for me.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... thank you...
While receiving gazes as if they were assessing the quality of the product, I asked them to let me through while lowering my pecking head, and I saw the chairman of the committee treating me with a smile.
Yeah, it's a big difference from when I was in Rustock's examination room, no wonder they call me Angel-chan with this.
''Ah, Kenjin!
Noticing my appearance, the chairman of the committee threw the adventurer, who was being treated with an extended nose, and rushed over to me with bouncy steps and giggled and hugged me.
Naturally, there were angry and vindictive shouts, but at the same time, admonishing voices could be heard along with the words 'demonslayer' and 'demon king'.
''Kento, are you hurt anywhere?''
''Yeah, all of my subordinates did a great job, so I didn't do much.
'You've been reckless in saying that, haven't you?
And, no, I'm not crazy.
The chairman let go of his body for a moment, and after glaring at me with zit eyes for a while, he suddenly relaxed his expression.
''I really think you're being reckless, but since you came back safely, I forgive you.
Okay, yes I'm back.
Welcome back.
The chairman wrapped his arms around my neck and gave me a sizzling hug.
'd*mn, you're a total demonslayer!
''Ahhhh.......Angel-chan is in the demon king's poisonous fangs.......''
"d*mn it, go bald, and before you know it, go bald from the back of your head!
All the young adventurers were gone like the tide receding, leaving behind a vindictive voice.
I mean, they were all injuries that didn't need treatment.
I don't want my committee chairman to cause you any unnecessary trouble, do I?
I heard that the garrison's cafeteria this morning is open to the adventurers who have been summoned, so I decided to eat breakfast with the committee chairman before returning to the lodge.
I was a little concerned about the other classmates who had been rescued, but the teachers are there too, so it should be fine.
When I was about to leave the temporary relief station and head for the cafeteria, the blood drained from my face at once.
The light blue short hair that comes rushing in from the entrance of the garrison, out of breath.......is this the timing?
I can feel the warmth of the commissioner with his arms crossed on my left arm, but I can't just reject Manon, who is rushing in with a face that looks like he's about to cry, can I?
'Kent, Kent, Kent!
Phew ... oh, good morning, Manon.
'I was so worried about you, you didn't tell me anything, stupid Kent....stupid....ugh....
I'm sorry, things changed so quickly and I had to rush...
Manon is burying his face in my right neck, on the opposite side of the committee chair, burying his face in my right neck and groaning softly.
I mean, it looks like it's about time for my left arm, which has been seriously tightened up by the committee chair, to the limit.
'Kyah! Shura, Shura, Shura.
Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Volzard's crisis is over, but Kokubun's life is a windfall.
'Yagi, it looks like I've found something I'll have to kill for the rest of my life, even if it's forced labor.
That's a coincidence, and so am I. Nitta...
I can hear all kinds of voices coming from all sorts of places, but I, I played an active role in protecting Volzard.......so you can't pay the bill?
I mean, why are the gaseous glasses and the new and old duo hanging around freely, hurry up and go back to forced labor.
'Kento........'
Kenjin....
'Hi, hi ... well, um ... anyway, we'll have breakfast together and so on ... sorry.
Feeling the warmth of the Chairman on my left arm and Manon on my right, but not having time to enjoy it at all, I went to the dining room to be taken away.
This morning's breakfast was a menu of stew with large chunks of meat, round bread, salad, and fresh milk to satisfy the hunger of the adventurers and garrison that struggled last night.
Normally, it smells so delicious that I'd be drooling, but I think it's a little too hearty for my current crispy and aching stomach.
I chose a seat at the back of the room and sat down, but my classmates surrounded me, and the adventurers and garrison members were also paying attention to what was going on from a distance.
Wow.........what is this situation.......this is the first time in my life that I've received this much attention.
''Kento, it's going to get cold, so let's eat first.......''
Well, yes I think we can do that, yes, thanks.
I can say that I can eat with impunity under these circumstances, Mr. Chairman, your nerves are going to be beyond comprehension.
''Kent........''
What is it? Manon.
'Yes, ah, um...'
''Eh ... uh ... uh ... uh ... mugu ...''
Manon, I don't think I should listen to the uneven demon next to it.
When I was thinking, I was approached by the chairman of the committee from the left side this time.
''Kento, yes, ahhh........''
Ahhhhhhh.........................
It's bad, I can't taste it at all.
I mean, the boys' crazy eyes are going to curse me to death.
As it was, I finished my breakfast, which I could not taste at all, in the exposed state.
No, I finished my breakfast.
"Well thank you for the food.
And no one has responded in any way, but I guess I have to cut it out of my life.
Take one, two, three deep breaths.....
Kent....
Hello?
Why is she talking to me at this time, Manon.
I just made a really weird sound, what's the matter with you, myai?
He's blowing unbearably all over the place, and I can hear him chuckling.
'I'm sorry ... you know, Kent. I don't think it's a good time to decide if Kent is going to suffer.
Manon...?
'I don't think everyone who's been in Volzard lately knows this, but Kent's been working really hard. He seems to be able to go back and forth with Riesenburg easily because of his amazing magic, but he's had to figure out how to rescue everyone, get a place to live in Volzard, and make a living for himself... and he's worked really hard.
The classmates listened to Manon's words closely.
''Bo, I love Kent who works so hard, so I don't want to interfere with him... I don't want to make him suffer... I want to help him as much as I can...''
'Kent still has a lot of work to do, doesn't he?
'Ummm, yes, I'm going to have to negotiate with Camilla the Princess of Riesenburg to get everyone back to the world.
Then you'll need to prioritize that and if I don't make the cut, I'll still be there for Kent.
'Manon thank you...'
I don't cry. Some of the girls I've worked with Manon are raggedy crying, but I don't cry because it's not cool, and I don't cry.
This is just sweat coming out of my eyes.
'I'm sorry Mr Manon, I was wrong about you.
Just as I was about to hug Manon out of the corner of my eye already, the chairman of the committee began to speak quietly.
'I imagined you to be a calculating girl who had taken notice of Kento's talent for magic. I apologize, I'm sorry.
The chairman sat up once and bowed deeply.
''But I will not give up my role in supporting Kenjin. Life in Rastock was really hard for me. I was treated better than everyone else, but I was only able to talk to everyone for a few moments between treatments, and those treatments didn't cure everyone, and it always broke my heart to be constantly reminded of my helplessness.
The classmates who have been rescued with me are listening to the chairman's story with glee.
They were all really indebted to the Chairman's treatment.
Kento was the one who supported me. He came to see me under the watchful eye and healed me from my exhaustion with his healing magic. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say about it.
Yuioka....
'I haven't said it properly yet, so I'll say it here. I love Kento, I love you. Yuuka Asakawa loves Kento Kokubun.
The chairperson's straightforward words reached my heart with a sluggish weight.
I felt disgustingly reminded of my own frivolity as I hugged and kissed the girls, making excuses to myself that I couldn't help but feel dizzy from being carried away by the situation.
'I don't...'
'Not now. I don't want to make Kento suffer either, and I know he's a bit naughty and has a weakness for girls. Besides ... there's another one, right? The game has to be fair,
'Yes ... well, I'm sorry ...'
Hearing their words about how seriously they were thinking about me made me ponder how I could repay them both.
I don't think I'll be able to give them an answer any time soon, but I was reminded that I need to think more neatly about it.
'Kent, what are we going to do today?'
'Well if you go to the guild and Mr. Donovan is back, ask him to buy the salamander...'
'What? Didn't you buy the salamander the day before yesterday?
'Yeah, apart from the one the day before last night, I'll have to buy the four cows I took down last night.
Yeah! Four salamanders....
That salamander was causing a horde of goblins to come towards Volzard, so I rushed over to take them out.......what?
The cafeteria is kind of in an uproar, and the garrison and adventurers are paying great attention to me, but I guess they didn't know that I went to defeat the salamander.
''Kent, is it true what you just said, that you defeated the salamander?''
'Oh, Mr. Burt, good morning, yes, I had to hurry up and look poorly in the circumstances.
No, but the Salamander was on the other side of the goblins, wasn't he? How did you go about taking it down?
Well I can use dark magic, so I can move under the shadows.
Seriously though, even if you could move, how did you get it down?
Well... well, that area is a trade secret... sort of?
Somehow, I'm hearing words like 'demonslayer' and 'demon king' again, but I hope it won't be too much trouble.
"Huh........when I first met you, I thought you were a polite but unreliable little boy, but it seems like you can't get your head around Kent anymore. And while you're at it, can you do something about our captain's love life too?
No, no, no, I have my hands full with myself, so please, Mr. Burt, take care of that.
Yes, I'll think about it.
It may have been time for business, but the guards had left, and the adventurers had also left, probably to relieve their fatigue from last night.
Thinking about it, the one hundred and fifty people we rescued from Rastock, plus the teachers, need to get their daily necessities ready.
It seems that my classmates are just gathered here, so let's talk about it here.
''Oda-sensei, I need to deposit some money for everyone to shop for daily necessities, is that okay?''
I don't mind, but is the state paying for all of us?
Yes, fortunately, I have my people working for me, so it's not a problem.
'Well, that's good, but I've heard a few things from Kobayashi and Sakurai, who came earlier. We're going to work for them from now on, you know.
''Yes, but don't be in a hurry, it's fine after you get used to Volzard. Then I'll give you 3,000 hectares per person I'll give you 500,000 hectares just in case, so you'll have to make do with this at first.
Okay, hey Kobayashi, Sakurai, let the guys who came before us show you where we're going.
'Oh! Don't everyone spend all your money on the mouthpiece of the Bumpy Sisters.
Maybe my desperation had hit the nail on the head, and the cafeteria was filled with laughter.
'Well, Kento, I'm going to go shopping with the others.
I don't want you all in trouble.
Kent, I'll show you guys around.
Please, Manon.
Well, let's get going, Yuica.
Yeah, do me a favor, Manon.
The Chairperson and Manon joined the Uneven Sisters in a circle of girls and went out to go shopping with the cayenne.
The first round of the direct confrontation was brought to a conclusion, and somehow the curtain seemed to fall without any blood rain.
"Hey, Kokubun's bastard, you got through it all right...
"d*mn, our chairman... why is he...
She's from over here, my little girl with the light blue hair, and she's... oh, shit.
"d*mn it, you're making out in front of me and I'm going to pluck you bald, no, I'm going to pluck you...
Incapacitate ... incapacitate ... incapacitate ... incapacitate ...
And the boys can't walk away without leaving a curse, can they?
Well, if I were in the opposite position, I'd curse with all my might.
Now, I have to ask you to buy the salamander, so let's go show up at the guild once, or rather, go back to the boarding house first and show you a safe face.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
I was walking nonchalantly towards the first aid station, listening to the alarm-removal bell, Khan, Khan, when I was approached by Marianne.
'Thank you for your hard work, Mr Kent,'
''Ah, Marianne-san, good job, I saw your fire attack magic, it's amazing.......''
'Oh, dear, it's nothing compared to Mr. Kent.
The fact that it's not a big deal is outrageous.
My Henachoco hero is at the level of running away with his tail between his legs.
Marianne, who had been smiling and laughing, suddenly tightened her expression and stared at me intently as she began to speak.
''If it wasn't for Kent-san's subordinates playing an active role, I think Volzard would have suffered immense damage. I would like to thank you again, thank you very much.
'I don't want to thank you... Volzard is a city that's very important to me, so it's only right to protect it.
I'm glad to hear it. That means you'll be able to have my daughter as well, right?
Huh? No, no, no, no, I'm not making a big deal out of this, am I?
I felt like we were talking about something very good, but you switched the subject in an instant.
'Oh, you'll consider it an important city because it's the home of Reece, who I'm welcoming as my wife, won't you?
No, no, no, it's too early for me to have a wife or anything like that and...
'Oh, Mr. Kent, I told you the other day in the dining room. You told me that in Volzard it's not unusual for a girl to be independent of her parents at the age of fifteen and start a family of her own.
'But, but I'm new to Volzard and yes, Reece hasn't turned fifteen yet, has she?
'Oh really but that's okay, it's only a couple of months until the New Year and if it's in the form of an engagement, there's nothing wrong with that.
Engaged, my dear, I'm afraid it's a bit of a rush...

The cafeteria is kind of in an uproar, and the garrison and adventurers are paying great attention to me, but I guess they didn't know that I went to defeat the salamander.
''Kent, is it true what you just said, that you defeated the salamander?''
'Oh, Mr. Burt, good morning, yes, I had to hurry up and look poorly in the circumstances.
No, but the Salamander was on the other side of the goblins, wasn't he? How did you go about taking it down?
Well I can use dark magic, so I can move under the shadows.
Seriously though, even if you could move, how did you get it down?
Well... well, that area is a trade secret... sort of?
Somehow, I'm hearing words like 'demonslayer' and 'demon king' again, but I hope it won't be too much trouble.
"Huh........when I first met you, I thought you were a polite but unreliable little boy, but it seems like you can't get your head around Kent anymore. And while you're at it, can you do something about our captain's love life too?
No, no, no, I have my hands full with myself, so please, Mr. Burt, take care of that.
Yes, I'll think about it.
It may have been time for business, but the guards had left, and the adventurers had also left, probably to relieve their fatigue from last night.
Thinking about it, the one hundred and fifty people we rescued from Rastock, plus the teachers, need to get their daily necessities ready.
It seems that my classmates are just gathered here, so let's talk about it here.
''Oda-sensei, I need to deposit some money for everyone to shop for daily necessities, is that okay?''
I don't mind, but is the state paying for all of us?
Yes, fortunately, I have my people working for me, so it's not a problem.
'Well, that's good, but I've heard a few things from Kobayashi and Sakurai, who came earlier. We're going to work for them from now on, you know.
''Yes, but don't be in a hurry, it's fine after you get used to Volzard. Then I'll give you 3,000 hectares per person I'll give you 500,000 hectares just in case, so you'll have to make do with this at first.
Okay, hey Kobayashi, Sakurai, let the guys who came before us show you where we're going.
'Oh! Don't everyone spend all your money on the mouthpiece of the Bumpy Sisters.
Maybe my desperation had hit the nail on the head, and the cafeteria was filled with laughter.
'Well, Kento, I'm going to go shopping with the others.
I don't want you all in trouble.
Kent, I'll show you guys around.
Please, Manon.
Well, let's get going, Yuica.
Yeah, do me a favor, Manon.
The Chairperson and Manon joined the Uneven Sisters in a circle of girls and went out to go shopping with the cayenne.
The first round of the direct confrontation was brought to a conclusion, and somehow the curtain seemed to fall without any blood rain.
"Hey, Kokubun's bastard, you got through it all right...
"d*mn, our chairman... why is he...
She's from over here, my little girl with the light blue hair, and she's... oh, shit.
"d*mn it, you're making out in front of me and I'm going to pluck you bald, no, I'm going to pluck you...
Incapacitate ... incapacitate ... incapacitate ... incapacitate ...
And the boys can't walk away without leaving a curse, can they?
Well, if I were in the opposite position, I'd curse with all my might.
Now, I have to ask you to buy the salamander, so let's go show up at the guild once, or rather, go back to the boarding house first and show you a safe face.
I was walking nonchalantly towards the first aid station, listening to the alarm-removal bell, Khan, Khan, when I was approached by Marianne.'Thank you for your hard work, Mr Kent,'''Ah, Marianne-san, good job, I saw your fire attack magic, it's amazing.......'''Oh, dear, it's nothing compared to Mr. Kent.The fact that it's not a big deal is outrageous.My Henachoco hero is at the level of running away with his tail between his legs.Marianne, who had been smiling and laughing, suddenly tightened her expression and stared at me intently as she began to speak.''If it wasn't for Kent-san's subordinates playing an active role, I think Volzard would have suffered immense damage. I would like to thank you again, thank you very much.'I don't want to thank you... Volzard is a city that's very important to me, so it's only right to protect it.I'm glad to hear it. That means you'll be able to have my daughter as well, right?Huh? No, no, no, no, I'm not making a big deal out of this, am I?I felt like we were talking about something very good, but you switched the subject in an instant.'Oh, you'll consider it an important city because it's the home of Reece, who I'm welcoming as my wife, won't you?No, no, no, it's too early for me to have a wife or anything like that and...'Oh, Mr. Kent, I told you the other day in the dining room. You told me that in Volzard it's not unusual for a girl to be independent of her parents at the age of fifteen and start a family of her own.'But, but I'm new to Volzard and yes, Reece hasn't turned fifteen yet, has she?'Oh really but that's okay, it's only a couple of months until the New Year and if it's in the form of an engagement, there's nothing wrong with that.Engaged, my dear, I'm afraid it's a bit of a rush...'Well, it's a bit of a problem if you suddenly call it an engagement, isn't it? But you see, Mr. Kent, my family agrees with my husband, me, and Reece himself, so if you feel like it, please let me know whenever you feel like it.What is it, Mr. Krauss?Don't worry, I won't let you disagree."Hi, hi...For a moment, Marianne-san looked like a Yatsuma...or rather, I felt like she was filling in the outer moat too.Smiling, that's a nice smile, Marianne-san left, but I couldn't stop the sweat from running down my back.I started walking towards the first aid station again, but there was something of a crowd around the cafeteria.I wondered if they had started distributing breakfast.As I approached, it looked like a group of young adventurers had gathered there.You'll be cured if you put a spit on your face.Shut up. You didn't hurt yourself.Bastard, I'm the guy with the goblin bite...You bit that one yourself, not a goblin's teeth!'Huh ... a real angel ... oh, I could die already ...'Come on, come on!"Idiots! Whoever rushed me, come over here and apologize to your angel!Oh, I have a very bad feeling about this, but........angel.....I thought about going home like this, but then the chairman of the committee would be angry with me, right?Let's take a look at the situation from the edge for a bit, let them know we're safe and leave.''Excuse me, could you let me through for a moment...'''Oh! Let me through? You know what? You've got to wait your turn, right?I was about to ask him to let me through the side, but I got stared at by some strong-looking brother.''No, no, I'm not here to treat you, I just have a message for you...''What? The message...When I thought it was unlikely that they would let me through, another strong-looking brother who seemed to be an acquaintance of the strong-looking brother spoke up."Hey, Kurta, isn't that guy........a demon hunter?'Oh? Ugh, this guy........the Demon King.......Perhaps hearing Kurta and the others' voices, the adventurers who were lined up in front of the aid station turned around in unison.''No, it's true that I have my subordinates working for me, but a 'demon king'.......''Hey, I'm serious...Um ... can you let me through for a moment...I don't know what it was, but the young adventurers took two quick steps off to the side to make way for me."Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... thank you...While receiving gazes as if they were assessing the quality of the product, I asked them to let me through while lowering my pecking head, and I saw the chairman of the committee treating me with a smile.Yeah, it's a big difference from when I was in Rustock's examination room, no wonder they call me Angel-chan with this.''Ah, Kenjin!Noticing my appearance, the chairman of the committee threw the adventurer, who was being treated with an extended nose, and rushed over to me with bouncy steps and giggled and hugged me.Naturally, there were angry and vindictive shouts, but at the same time, admonishing voices could be heard along with the words 'demonslayer' and 'demon king'.''Kento, are you hurt anywhere?''''Yeah, all of my subordinates did a great job, so I didn't do much.'You've been reckless in saying that, haven't you?And, no, I'm not crazy.The chairman let go of his body for a moment, and after glaring at me with zit eyes for a while, he suddenly relaxed his expression.''I really think you're being reckless, but since you came back safely, I forgive you.Okay, yes I'm back.Welcome back.The chairman wrapped his arms around my neck and gave me a sizzling hug.'d*mn, you're a total demonslayer!''Ahhhh.......Angel-chan is in the demon king's poisonous fangs.......''"d*mn it, go bald, and before you know it, go bald from the back of your head!All the young adventurers were gone like the tide receding, leaving behind a vindictive voice.I mean, they were all injuries that didn't need treatment.I don't want my committee chairman to cause you any unnecessary trouble, do I?I heard that the garrison's cafeteria this morning is open to the adventurers who have been summoned, so I decided to eat breakfast with the committee chairman before returning to the lodge.I was a little concerned about the other classmates who had been rescued, but the teachers are there too, so it should be fine.When I was about to leave the temporary relief station and head for the cafeteria, the blood drained from my face at once.The light blue short hair that comes rushing in from the entrance of the garrison, out of breath.......is this the timing?I can feel the warmth of the commissioner with his arms crossed on my left arm, but I can't just reject Manon, who is rushing in with a face that looks like he's about to cry, can I?'Kent, Kent, Kent!Phew ... oh, good morning, Manon.'I was so worried about you, you didn't tell me anything, stupid Kent....stupid....ugh....I'm sorry, things changed so quickly and I had to rush...Manon is burying his face in my right neck, on the opposite side of the committee chair, burying his face in my right neck and groaning softly.I mean, it looks like it's about time for my left arm, which has been seriously tightened up by the committee chair, to the limit.'Kyah! Shura, Shura, Shura.Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!Volzard's crisis is over, but Kokubun's life is a windfall.'Yagi, it looks like I've found something I'll have to kill for the rest of my life, even if it's forced labor.That's a coincidence, and so am I. Nitta...I can hear all kinds of voices coming from all sorts of places, but I, I played an active role in protecting Volzard.......so you can't pay the bill?I mean, why are the gaseous glasses and the new and old duo hanging around freely, hurry up and go back to forced labor.'Kento........'Kenjin....'Hi, hi ... well, um ... anyway, we'll have breakfast together and so on ... sorry.Feeling the warmth of the Chairman on my left arm and Manon on my right, but not having time to enjoy it at all, I went to the dining room to be taken away.This morning's breakfast was a menu of stew with large chunks of meat, round bread, salad, and fresh milk to satisfy the hunger of the adventurers and garrison that struggled last night.Normally, it smells so delicious that I'd be drooling, but I think it's a little too hearty for my current crispy and aching stomach.I chose a seat at the back of the room and sat down, but my classmates surrounded me, and the adventurers and garrison members were also paying attention to what was going on from a distance.Wow.........what is this situation.......this is the first time in my life that I've received this much attention.''Kento, it's going to get cold, so let's eat first.......''Well, yes I think we can do that, yes, thanks.I can say that I can eat with impunity under these circumstances, Mr. Chairman, your nerves are going to be beyond comprehension.''Kent........''What is it? Manon.'Yes, ah, um...'''Eh ... uh ... uh ... uh ... mugu ...''Manon, I don't think I should listen to the uneven demon next to it.When I was thinking, I was approached by the chairman of the committee from the left side this time.''Kento, yes, ahhh........''Ahhhhhhh.........................It's bad, I can't taste it at all.I mean, the boys' crazy eyes are going to curse me to death.As it was, I finished my breakfast, which I could not taste at all, in the exposed state.No, I finished my breakfast."Well thank you for the food.And no one has responded in any way, but I guess I have to cut it out of my life.Take one, two, three deep breaths.....Kent....Hello?Why is she talking to me at this time, Manon.I just made a really weird sound, what's the matter with you, myai?He's blowing unbearably all over the place, and I can hear him chuckling.'I'm sorry ... you know, Kent. I don't think it's a good time to decide if Kent is going to suffer.Manon...?'I don't think everyone who's been in Volzard lately knows this, but Kent's been working really hard. He seems to be able to go back and forth with Riesenburg easily because of his amazing magic, but he's had to figure out how to rescue everyone, get a place to live in Volzard, and make a living for himself... and he's worked really hard.The classmates listened to Manon's words closely.''Bo, I love Kent who works so hard, so I don't want to interfere with him... I don't want to make him suffer... I want to help him as much as I can...'''Kent still has a lot of work to do, doesn't he?'Ummm, yes, I'm going to have to negotiate with Camilla the Princess of Riesenburg to get everyone back to the world.Then you'll need to prioritize that and if I don't make the cut, I'll still be there for Kent.'Manon thank you...'I don't cry. Some of the girls I've worked with Manon are raggedy crying, but I don't cry because it's not cool, and I don't cry.This is just sweat coming out of my eyes.'I'm sorry Mr Manon, I was wrong about you.Just as I was about to hug Manon out of the corner of my eye already, the chairman of the committee began to speak quietly.'I imagined you to be a calculating girl who had taken notice of Kento's talent for magic. I apologize, I'm sorry.The chairman sat up once and bowed deeply.''But I will not give up my role in supporting Kenjin. Life in Rastock was really hard for me. I was treated better than everyone else, but I was only able to talk to everyone for a few moments between treatments, and those treatments didn't cure everyone, and it always broke my heart to be constantly reminded of my helplessness.The classmates who have been rescued with me are listening to the chairman's story with glee.They were all really indebted to the Chairman's treatment.Kento was the one who supported me. He came to see me under the watchful eye and healed me from my exhaustion with his healing magic. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say about it.Yuioka....'I haven't said it properly yet, so I'll say it here. I love Kento, I love you. Yuuka Asakawa loves Kento Kokubun.The chairperson's straightforward words reached my heart with a sluggish weight.I felt disgustingly reminded of my own frivolity as I hugged and kissed the girls, making excuses to myself that I couldn't help but feel dizzy from being carried away by the situation.'I don't...''Not now. I don't want to make Kento suffer either, and I know he's a bit naughty and has a weakness for girls. Besides ... there's another one, right? The game has to be fair,'Yes ... well, I'm sorry ...'Hearing their words about how seriously they were thinking about me made me ponder how I could repay them both.I don't think I'll be able to give them an answer any time soon, but I was reminded that I need to think more neatly about it.'Kent, what are we going to do today?''Well if you go to the guild and Mr. Donovan is back, ask him to buy the salamander...''What? Didn't you buy the salamander the day before yesterday?'Yeah, apart from the one the day before last night, I'll have to buy the four cows I took down last night.Yeah! Four salamanders....That salamander was causing a horde of goblins to come towards Volzard, so I rushed over to take them out.......what?The cafeteria is kind of in an uproar, and the garrison and adventurers are paying great attention to me, but I guess they didn't know that I went to defeat the salamander.''Kent, is it true what you just said, that you defeated the salamander?'''Oh, Mr. Burt, good morning, yes, I had to hurry up and look poorly in the circumstances.No, but the Salamander was on the other side of the goblins, wasn't he?
