Chapter 222 - Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [19] (2/2)

I have just completed a very unfavorable battle, so I want a little break.

「What are you saying after growing to this point… Your stamina and spiritual power are far beyond the boundaries of man. Cutting down and healing 14 soul dress users is no big deal, right?」

Sensei said, and smiled as though implying it’s a piece of cake.

It would be a waste of time and strength to argue with her.

「Haa, I understand…」

Then, I healed everyone’s wounds while feeling a little dissatisfied.

After that, the strength training conducted in the second period ended safely without any problems. And finally it was lunch break.

I, Ria, and Rose, went to the student council room with our own lunch boxes to attend the regular meeting.

When I knocked on the door as usual,

「Come in.」

「Please come in though.」

The stiff voice of Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai replied.

(That’s rare. The president is the one who usually replies… What’s going on?)

The moment I opened the door slowly, feeling a little uncomfortable,

「Allen-kun, I’ve always liked you since long ago!」

「I’d like you to accept my genuine chocolate though…!」

The two people, whose faces were flushed, offered a lovely parcel each.

(…It’s a fake.)

I was immediately convinced of that.

(The possibility that this is genuine chocolate – is zero.)

It is impossible even if heaven and the earth were turned over, for the mischievous Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai to do this.

There is no doubt that there is an ulterior motive.

When I judged that, I quickly looked around the entire student council room.

Then, at the edge of the room…

I found an unfamiliar “box” on the desk that used to belong to Sebas-san.

It’s an elegant, small, white box.

It looks like a music box, but also like a small jewelry box.

But if my memory serves, it didn’t exist in this student council room until yesterday.

(…How suspicious)

I thought it was suspicious and looked carefully. The box had a small hole the size of a grain of rice, and there was something which seemed to reflect light inside. Something almost like a lens.

(I see, that’s what it is.)

I saw through the “trap” that Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai had set-up within a split second, and…

「Ah, thank you very much.」

I bowed slightly and accepted their “genuine chocolate” as though it was a trifling matter.
