Getting new companions
The day after the Research Society Information Session, the Research Society has officially started Starting today, the activities for the Research Society resuroup, today is its launch Because…
“Although it’s such a late hour to ask this, what do we do in a research group?”
“You really asked it at such a late hour… Well, nothing is particularly set in stone Basically things that aren’t covered in class, so you want to learnresearch… these are the common ones”
“I see If that’s the case, then ill our ‘Ultiic Research Society’ research?”
“Who knows? At that tis So I don’t have any clue e should do”
“Going with the flow, you say…”
Are you really okay with that reason? And so, I looked at the person who proposed the name…
“I was also just going with the flow But I don’t regret it”
“In other words, nothing has been decided…”
“Walford-kun seeic So no matter what, I want to cooperate with you to study it, definitely”
“…Then, is everyone fine with researching powerful ic?”
“That’s fine”
It seeood Everything is all good as long as everyone has fun after school
When we arrived at the laboratory, the two people who had joined yesterday were already there
“Ah! Sir, cheers for your hard work!”
“T-thank you very much for your hard work”
“Thanks for your hard work, you guys got here quickly, did you?”
“Oh, yes, Sir! Because we cannot keep His Highness and the grandson of the Magi waiting, we ran all the way here, Sir!”
“U-u you any inconveniences?”
“What do you mean by inconveniences?”
“No, umm, that is…”
We’ve only et to know each other first?
“First things first, let’s go inside the laboratory”
After saying that, I entered the laboratory Although the structure of the room looked no h
“Then, shi+n, as the representative of the research society, why don’t you give a speech”
“Another speech, huh…”
I murmured and then stepped forward
“Umm, this time, I, shi+n Walford, will be the representative of the ‘Ultiic Research Society’ Because the research society was established on a whim, and I suddenly became the representative, we still have yet to completely decide on ant to do Well, don’t worry about it, and let’s do it one step at a time”
When I finished speaking, Mark and Olivia was it? They looked dumbfounded
“‘Ultiic Research Society,’ you say…”
“So it was actually named as that?”
It’s like that! You actually joined without knowing!
“Umm… It’s because we heard Walford-kun started his own research society…”
“And so we joined without knowing anything, Sir!”
“…It’s all good And so, Mark and Olivia, could you two please introduce yourselves?”
“Ye-ye-yes, Sir! Let’s see, my name is Mark Bean, Sir! I’m a freshman in class A! My house is a blacksmith shop, and we make weapons, armor We alsomade, please use ‘Bean’s Workshop!’ Because I often help at the blacksic, Sir! Please take care of me!”
“Oh, speaking of ‘Bean’s Workshop’ it’s that the famous shop with many expert blacksmiths who produce quality products”
“Is that so? Or rather, you seem quite familiar with it, Tony”
“Well, yeah… Didn’t I say it before, that hts? So in the old days, I also wielded a sword The swords from ‘Bean’s Workshop’ are sharper than those of other workshops; even their knives are small and easy to use”
How surprising Tony was talking about weapons! Although it shouldn’t be so strange since his fahts, it doesn’t quite match the atmosphere around him Mark also had a surprised expression
“Th-thank you veryour shop”
“Ah, at that tioal”
“Itmade, please let me know! I’ll provide you with some service!”
“Is that true? That makes me really happy”
I saw a surprising side of Tony And next was Olivia
“Umm… My name is Olivia Stone I’m also a freshman from A Class My house runs a restaurant, and the name of the shop is ‘Stone Kiln Pavilion’ Mark istiood ater ic Please take care of me”
“‘Stone Kiln Pavilion!?’ That’s a very faratin that Stone Kiln makes is unrivaled…”
Alice said while re out of her mouth
“When I passed the entrance examination, I went to Stone Kiln Pavilion to celebrate It really was suuuupppperrrrr~ delicious!”
“I’et a reservation”
“U-umm, everyone, if you’d like, please do come when you’re free I will provide hospitality”
“Really! You did it, shi+n-kun! What a great find of human resource!”
“Don’t make such a rude compliment!”
However, both of the of any of the shops
Mark has brown hair, black eyes, and some freckles Probably because he’s been trained to become a blacksmith, he has a muscular body physique He also has an atmosphere of an athlete
Olivia is a beautiful girl with medium black hair and blue eyes She’s cute and has a lovely atirl for the restaurant
“Since Mark is a blacksmith’s son and also helps out at the shop, does that ?”
“Ye-ye-yes, Sir! Bu-but, you see! It’s not thatdeal, Sir!”
“Hey, Mark This research society only consist of freshmen, so you don’t have to speak so formally”
“That’s right, Olivia as well!”
“Eh, but…”
“But the Prince and the grandson of the Hero are here, right?”
“Ah, you don’t have to worry about that Even shi+n talks to me without reservation from time to time”
“Uhness… It’s because it’s shi+n…”
Because it’s Gus
“Well, it’s probably irandeneral public I’uys”
“…General public?”
“I wonder if s?”
“However, shi+n will beco next week”
Hey! Everyone is so cruel! I’ht? And then Gus suddenly said so
“Gus, what do you mean by next week?”
“Hmm? Ah, well, you’ll probably receive the notification once you get home It has been determined that the ceremony will take part next week With this, shi+n will become a celebrity”
“Is that so… It has already been decided…”
“But be at ease As promised yesterday, you will not be used for any politicalthe ceremony However, it’s impossible for your na spread”
“Is that so…”
Because of this, it’ll probably be iht!
“I could just disguise myself or make myself invisible!”
Ah, crap I said it out loud Huh? The gazes of the people around me hurts…
“Aside fro yourself, what does make yourself invisible mean?”
“Eh? It means exactly as it sounds Like this, if I nize me or feel my presence!”
After I finished speaking, I used optical caic, and everyone was duain
“Eh? shi+n-kun? Where did you go?”
“No way… He suddenly disappeared…”
“Wh-hat the hell? Is this!?”
“No, you guys don’t have to be that surprised…”
After that, I released the optical caic, and everyone started to ask questions
“shi+n! What was that earlier? I coht of you!”
“It’s certainly strange Even though you didn’t leave this place, we couldn’t see where you were at all”
“The fact that you reappeared at the same place means you didn’t move at all? Then, how did you do it?”
“Wait a lected Mark and Olivia!”
And so I said, but when everyone turned to look at them, both of them looked astonished
“Your Highness, sir, you said…”
“Walford-kun is being decorated?”
The topic of the conversation has changed!
“Let’s divert back to the original topic, or else it’ll become a mess”
“It’s because of you”
“Shut up! Wait a ? And also, didn’t we say to please stop with the honorifics?”
“It is as you have said, Sir”
“Well, first things first, please stop with the honorifics There’s no need for honorifics e’re all the sae”
“It’s ihness and Walford-kun! And also, when I’ in the workshop, my position is the lowest, so this is the way I usually talk, Sir!”
“It’s the sa with the shop… Although I feel like I can drop the honorifics when I talk to His Highness and Walford-kun, it’s not possible to do so immediately”
I’ labelled at the same class as Gus…
“It looks like you want to say so?”
“I don’t really have anything to say… Haa~ Then let’s just end it with that It’s not good to force them to do it”
“I’m really very sorry”
“I’m very sorry”
“You guys don’t have to apologize every single time And so? What did you make, Mark?”
“Well, Sir, as I’ve said earlier, I’m still an apprentice However, just recently, I was finally able to ic practice, I haven’t improved much, I’m still far from it It can’t be helped”
