STnBD BR Extra3jpg
Part 1[edit]
This happened on a certain day a couple weeks prior to the Blade Dance festival
After attending a free elective lecture before noon, Claire and Ka down a corridor in the Acade in front of a noticeboard and stopped
”Hmm? Isn't that Fianna?”
”Yeah, what is she doing there, I wonder?”
Kalances and quietly approached her from behind
”This one is no good Not this one either, hmm”
The i at the noticeboard with a serious look on her face
”What are you doing, Fianna?”
”Kyah!?”
Ka her to look back frantically, staring with her dusk-colored eyes widened
”Kamito-kun Oh, and Claire too”
”What do you mean, 'and'”
Claire pouted angrily and looked at the noticeboard
”What are you staring at so seriously?”
On the noticeboard hanging on the wall in the corridor, there were various ”quests” organized according to difficulty level Since most of these were low-ranked and safe quests coes, there were alh-ranked quests
Although there were so superior archdemon-class spirits posted at the top of the noticeboard, these quests looked like they were reserved for senior students such as Velsaria Eva in advance
”Are you telling me you're here to apply for a quest?”
Claire's eyebroitched
”Let me make this clear first Unless in in the tournament, quests of this difficulty level won't be ofour team to compete in the Blade Dance”
”No, I' at that side”
Fianna turned her head to the side and pointed to another corner of the noticeboard
Posted there were recruitment notices for students
”Part-time jobs?”
This time, it was Kamito's turn to feel puzzled
”Fianna, why do you need to”
Fianna was a true member of the imperial family Based on status, she should not need to work
Besides, in the Acade ladies of noble birth, it was unlikely for students to need to work part-time, but in reality, the number of part-time job offers were not few at all This was because there were exceptions such as lower-ranked nobles who did not own vast territories or students with special circumstances like Claire
”Eh, this is”
Fianna looked hesitant
”F-For money”
She whispered, quite embarrassed
”For money But you still count as royalty”
”It's just an eer and I've already used up all the spirit crystals I brought”
In response to Fianna's self-deprecation, Claire and Kamito could not help but fall silent
She was exiled by i the Lost Queen who had lost her power of the spirit contract Without any wealth, her stipend cut off, she had truly abandoned everything to come to this Academy
—All for the sake ofKamito
”But alood”
Turning her gaze back to the noticeboard, Fianna sighed lightly
”? You used to be a Queen candidate at the Divine Ritual Institute, right? Shouldn't it be easy to find a job if you use your princess maiden qualifications?”
This was obvious Alht the poielded by Acade jobs to s to spirits of the earth in prayer of bountiful harvests, or jobs asking powerful spirits to chop down forests Indeed, as someone trained at the Divine Ritual Institute, these types of jobs should be very easy for her to get the hang of
”Look, there's a daht spirit—”
”U-Unacceptable! Using the imperial family's spirit for construction work”
Fianna shook her head Then she looked down slightly
”Moreover, this time, I don't quite want to use my powers as a princess maiden”
”? Why—”
”You should be able to understand the feeling of not wanting to attract unnecessary attention, right?”
Showing slight sadness in her dusk-colored eyes, Fianna sighed
”Yes, that's right Sorry”
Claire looked away apologetically
Persecuted as the Calaer sister, Claire could es of Fianna, who had been mocked by the imperial palace and called the Lost Queen Perhaps Fianna still felt resistant against being exposed to the eyes of such snobbish people again after recovering her power as a princess maiden
”Speaking of which, haven't you worked part-time before, Claire”
”Yes”
Claire nodded Although she had stopped working in order to prepare for the upco Blade Dance, before Ka jobs The vast amount of canned peaches hidden in her closet were apparently bought using her part-ties
”What kind of work did you do?”
”Private tutoring for children in upper-class families”
”P-Private tutoring!?”
”Jeez, what's with your reaction?”
”Oh, nothing, rather than unexpected, it's more like”
Kamito scratched his head hesitantly
”I was thinking you'd surely be working as a charcoalcraftsman”
”I was thinking charcoal craftsman too”
”What the heck!?”
Claire's red hair stood up like flames
”Well, oh I see It's because your grades are so outstanding, Claire”
Just as stated, Claire's grades were surprising top-class in the Academy Since she was born quite talented already, co
”Fufu, private tutor huh That's not bad too”
At this h in contemplation Then
”Fufu, Kamito-kun?”
Boing Suddenly, Ka on his left arm
”!? W-What are you doing, Fianna!?”
”Since you're in remedial studies, Kamito-kun, let me tutor you privately♪”
”Huh, wait, hat are you doing, you pervert princess!”
”I am not the pervert princess but the pervert teacher♪”
”Stop changing the subject!”
Claire grumbled and entered a pose to pull Fianna away
”What are you doing, may I ask?”
At this time, a voice called out from the other end of the corridor
”Rinslet?”
Ka a book in her hand, walking over with Carol
”Fianna's looking for a part-time job”
”Her Highness?”
While Rinslet listened with a slight tilt of her head, Kamito explained the whole story
”I see now Seeking a part-ti”
Rinslet clasped her hands before her chest and nodded
”Rinslet, I don't suppose you've really worked, right?”
”My, I'll have you know that I a flyers”
Hmph, Rinslet puffed her chest out
”Milady has received co convention”
”Why would a daughter of the Laurenfrost fa flyers”
”I discovered it was fun while I was helping Carol out in her part-time job”
”Why is aon part-time jobs”
Without paying attention to Ka with narrowed eyes, Rinslet turned to Fianna
”Your Highness, if it pleases you, would you like me to introduce to you a shop I am acquainted with?”
”Really? That would be a great help”
”Yes, after all, that shop is always co them after school”
”I'lad for you, Fianna”
”Yes, thank you Rin slot-san?”
”My name is Rinslet Laurenfrost!”
Rinslet went red in the face, offended
”Seeo have a look too”
”Me too, it's worrying so I' too”
Part 2[edit]
With this decided, the next day arrived Kamito and company arrived at a certain stylish shop recommended by Rinslet, located in the busiest street in the Academy town
”Hold on, don't tell me this place”
Fianna whispered nervously after looking at the shop sign
”Yes, this is the famous confectionery shop, the Royal Palace, whose main branch is located in the imperial capital”
Rinslet tossed her hair elegantly and spoke
”W-W-Why did it happen to be a cake shop, of all things?”
Karound, clutching his head
”Kamito-san, what is the matter with you?”
”A-Arghhhhh”
(Speaking of which, I guess Rinslet still doesn't kno terrible Fianna's cooking is)
Kamito stood up unsteadily
”Hey Rinslet”
”Kyah, hat are you doing so suddenly!?”
Just as Kahtly
”I'm sorry, but this place won't work Fianna can't cook at all”
”Worry not The cake chefs here will teach you hand-over-hand even if you have no experience inconfectionery”
”No, that's not the problem here”
”Hold on, what are you thispering about?”
”Y-Your faces are too close!”
Claire and Fianna angrily glared at Kamito
Then the bell rang and the shop's door opened
”Oh”
”Come, come, welcome to the shop, ladies”
Out fro woman, dressed in a white chef's uniform
She seemed to be the owner of this shop
”I have already heard the details froreat help”
”Thank you for looking after us today”
Rinslet bowed politely and introduced the woirls
”She used to be the Grand Pâtissier at the i”
”Rinslet's teacher huh”
”Calling me teacher would be too kind Milady, you i—”
”My, such flattery is not needed”
Rinslet shook her head
”Pleased to make your acquaintance, Grand Pâtissier”
Fianna stepped forward and curtsied politely
Then Claire took a step forward too
”U-Umm, is it okay if I join in to learn?”
”You too, Claire?”
”Umm, I'd like to learn to make sweets”
Claire fidgeted with her fingers while speaking aardly:
”Also, t-the Valentia Holy Festival is co up”
”Ah, there is that, yes”
Fianna shtly
”S-Such a thing, what it is”
”H to talk about it in front of Kamito-kun?”
”~H-Haah, d-don't—”
Small sparks jumped out froht red
The shop owner nodded generously
”Why certainly I won't reject you You are the one contracted to a hell cat spirit, aren't you?”
”Y-Yes”
”In that case, please head over to the oven to bake soh”
”Be careful and don't char the cookies”
”D-Don't worry, I kno to operate an oven at least!”
Part 3[edit]
”So, Fianna-sama, please whip this cream next—”
Inside the kitchen of the classy confectionery shop, the Royal Palace, the two girls were now dressed in aprons and being instructed by the Grand Pâtissier
Fianna whipped the creaed cookie dough in the oven tray one by one She looked fairly experienced, actually
(Anyway, I guess there's no problem)
Kamito watched theh of relief Putting aside Claire, who still had not started using fire yet, Fianna did not see weird
(That royal white stew last time must have been a mistake)
It was supposed to be so froe to succeed with ordinary cooking
”Jump, embers—”
After putting all cookie dough onto the tray, Claire activated the oven The oven was an expensive model that used spirit crystals Small salamanders were released to sustain a heated plate
A short while later, a very appetizing aroma drifted from the kitchen
”Wow, this aro”
Suddenly, the sword at Kahtly
Then a beautiful silver-haired girl appeared in the kitchen
”Est, what happened? Why now?”
”Yes, I woke up because I sreat aroma”
Est yahile stretching
”Kary”
Est fidgeted and tugged Kamito's sleeve
”Don't eat without permission Be patient and I'll buy some for you to eat properly”
”Yes, Kamito”
Est nodded and started staring at the cookies in the oven
A few more minutes passed
”The cream is done♪”
Holding the bowl in both hands, Fianna happily turned towards Kamito
”Wow, it looks properly done”
The boas filled with fresh crea from appearance alone
”Fufu, Kamito-kun, would you like to have a taste? It is as soft as my bosom”
Boing
”Fianna!?”
”Well then, let's try the taste—”
The shop owner cleared her throat and took the bowl
Putting a spoonful of the cream in her mouth, she then—
Froze, just like that
”?'
Kaer to sample a bit of the cream too
”H-How is it? Kamito-kun”
”N-No taste”
It was like eating fluffy air What an unbelievable taste
”Your Highness, how on earth did you make this?”
”How? I si noruess?”
Fianna explained with a troubled expression
(Don't tellflavors?)
Talented as an elite princess , perhaps there would be an effect like ritualthe taste
”Hhtly impossible to use”
The shop owner remarked quietly with a solemn expression, but just at that moment
”Haah!”
A scream came from behind
”What happened, Claire!?” ”What's wrong?”
Just as Kamito and the others turned around
”T-The fire spirit in the oven suddenly Hey you, stop this right now!”
Inside the huge oven, countless sala themselves on the cookies
”Claire, what did you do!?”
”B-Because it wasn't hot enough, so I just added a bit more power Uwah!”
With slithering tongues, the tiny salamanders ate all the cookies on the tray Then they opened the oven's door and ran outside
”H-Hold it”
The countless fire spirits began to stuff themselves with their favorite cakes in the shop without restraint
”Leave it to me Fenrir!”
Rinslet swiftly raised her hand and suantic white wolf
”Woof!”
”Freeze all of those fire spirits!”
”H-Hold on, Rinslet—”
Kamito frantically called to stop her, but it was already too late
Fenrir opened his jaide and discharged a fierce blizzard at the fire spirits running amok all over the place
The fire spirits were instantly frozen Turning into particles of light, they vanished into thin air
”Phew~ That probably does the trick Oh dear?”
”Ahhhhh, all the cakes today are ruined!”
Inside the kitchen that was frozen in ice, the shop owner collapsed in shock
Part 4[edit]
As a result, part-ti at the Royal Palace had to be suspended
