Chapter 52 (1/2)

Chapter 52 – School Princ.i.p.al sensei is in an afternoon nap desu

According to Emilia, the Great Sage is currently in her afternoon nap.

“Come to think of it, the Great Sage was sleeping when we first met”, Laura thought.

Doubts like, “Don't tell me, the time she's awake is shorter?”, appeared within Laura.

「And so, where is the Princ.i.p.al-sensei sleeping?」

「It's in the School Princ.i.p.al's Exclusive Napping Room, beside the Princ.i.p.al's office」

「Eh, there's a room like that? There's a room just for the Princ.i.p.al-sensei to sleep in?」

「That is well, yes it exists」

It was such a ridiculous thing but thinking of the Great Sage's achievements, having one or two napping rooms is well, might be forgiven.

「I, I have pa.s.sed by the princ.i.p.al's office many times but I have never seen a napping room」

「I also don't know」

Charlotte and Anna said their doubts.

「Well, of course. It's made that you can't enter from the corridor. There's only the door directly from the princ.i.p.al's office. On top of that, there's a very strong barrier in that door that even I cannot open it」

「A barrier that even Emilisensei cannot open……why in the world, such a mechanism like that in the napping room……?」

While guessing half the answer, Laura could not help but ask.

「That is, of course……so that no one could disturb her afternoon nap」

「It was really like that after all……」

Laura said in amazement and Emilia shrugged her shoulders as she made a wry smile.

「It's alright. The school is made that even if the Princ.i.p.al is not around, it can be won't have impediments from operating. Rather, if the Princ.i.p.al comes out, she would always ask absurd requests of it's good enough that that person is always taking an afternoon nap」

「Haa……」

It was probably what they call as let sleeping dogs lie.

It looks like if one becomes a Great Sage, they would be treated as inhumans already.

「When the Princ.i.p.al wakes up, let's ask her to take a look at this egg. Also, we need to report that Laursan's dropout request has been cancelled」

「U〜n……when will she wake up?」

「Who knows? That person, she sleeps for about 3 days in a row after all……」

「3 days……」

Laura also likes to sleep soundly with a warm futon, but she doesn't think of sleeping for three days.

The things that the Great Sage does exceed the common man's understanding.

“However, if we wait for so long, the egg might hatch”, Laura thought.

The girls picked it up for an observation diary so they would welcome if it hatches.

However, if they do not know what kind of creature it is beforehand, there is the possibility that it might die from hunger.

If soーー

「Laursan. In times like this, we could only breakthrough desu wa. Let's destroy the napping room's barrier!」

「As expected of Charlotte-san! I also thought the same thing! With that decided, let's go to the princ.i.p.al's room!」

While embracing the egg, Laura ran towards the princ.i.p.al's room with Charlotte.

It is a room that has an expensive looking table and paintings.

They did not care about it when they came before but there is really a door that is not facing the corridor.

Right there a sign board saying『Currently sleeping. Open it if you can』, hanging on the door.

「This is the room to the napping room huh. The Great Sage's barrier, let me see how strong it is!」

Charlotte grabbed the door k.n.o.b and turned it while she fully activated her arm strength strengthening magic.

And, she pushed! It didn't open when she pushed so she pulled! But even so, the door would not open!
