Chapter 562 (1/2)

When we returned to the classroom from the changing room, the other students had already arrived in the classroom.

The boys froze when they saw Fran in her school uniform. But it seemed it was not because of Fran’s cuteness, but because of the trauma from the mock battle.

The female students were not as distant as they had been in the changing room earlier. Some of them were even waving at her.

However, the classroom, which had an enormous male-to-female ratio, quickly became quiet.

「…」

「…」

「Nn?」

「Fran, come here」

Charon ushered her to a seat among the boys who were holding their breath and staring at Fran.

Although I called it a classroom, it was shaped like a bowl, like a university lecture hall. Apparently, there were no seating arrangements, so each person could sit wherever they wanted.

The reason why Charon purposely sat in the last row was to alleviate everyone’s attention on Fran.

「…」

「…」

When Fran and Charon were seated, silence still dominated the classroom. All the boys were still holding their breath and concentrating on Fran’s presence as if they were facing a fierce beast.

Seeing that, the female students were laughing at them.

「Oya? You guys are quite quiet today, what’s wrong?」

The silence was broken by an old man who walked into the classroom. He must be the teacher for this subject.

「N-no, it’s nothing…」

「Really? Well, okay then, let’s start the class. Oh, right, that reminds me, we’ve got a transfers student, right?」

「It’s me」

「So you’re the instructor and transfer student that I’ve heard so much about, huh? And a Beastman too, quite rare in our academy」

The old teacher looked at Fran with interest as she raised her hand. He wasn’t in the staff room when she was introduced this morning.

「They also said that you’re an adventurer, but have you done a lot of dismantling?」

「Nn」

「So what about this, would you be willing to change things up a bit today and tell us about your experience? It would be a rare opportunity to be able to hear an actual story from an active adventurer after all」

「I don’t mind」

「Ooh! That’s good!」

The old teacher was more excited than the students. He must be a teacher that liked to do research.

「It’s not every day I’d get to hear about a high-ranking adventurer’s dismantling experience!」

With eyes filled with curiosity, he shouted in joy.

「Where should we start then? Oh, that’s it… For example, what is the biggest magic beast you’ve ever dismantled?」

「The biggest?」

「Yes!」

「Hmm…?」

「What’s wrong? Or did you haven’t had much experience in dismantling a large magic beast?」

「I don’t know which one to choose because there are too many」

「O-ooh! So that’s why! Well, how about the biggest one in recent days?」

「‘That’ will do then, the one I defeated in the Plains of the Demon Wolf」

「Hohou? Rumor has it that there are all kinds of magic beasts in there. So, what did you slay there?」

The old teacher showed a big smile on his face. He was probably the most serious person in this classroom right now.

「An Invisible Death」

「Wh-what did you say!? I-I-Invisible Death!? It’s a magic beast with a threat level of B! And you managed to defeat it!?」

The students were completely left behind, weren’t they? Contrary to the excitement of the old teacher, the students looked puzzled.

「Uhum. Aah, that’s right. Let me explain about the magic beast called the Invisible Death first」

There was no textbook, so he began to explain about Invisible Death while writing on the board. As he was a specialist in magic beasts, the old man’s explanation was very detailed.

However, some things could only be understood through first-hand experience, and Fran would supplement this information accordingly.
