Chapter 4 (1/2)

SEIJU NO KUNI NO KINJU TSUKAI CHAPTER 4: HEADMASTER MAKINA

I’m all tied up

For the first time in my life

Though I enerate without a job, never once was I arrested

Nay, even this ti

Currently, with both hands and feets restrained, I’ down the academy hallway

I can barely extend h to walk properly

It’s not like I can escape even if I tried

At first glance, there see the lamps that are attached to the walls… I wonder if they have electricity?

While questioning, I looked outside of the hich are spaced at even intervals like the lamps

Because of the thick curtains in the infir dark

da time…

While I was still staring out of the s, I was pushed

「Hey, walk faster」

「…Okay」

The person who pushed uard

I alking between Lisa-san and the guard

By the way, upon exiting the infir at h on hi」and thus accompanied us

Uuu, what an angel

「…」

However, the atmosphere of the academy is, how I should put it, majestic

There is a considerable difference to my school in my previous world

The corridor where I walking now is like those you see in castles in a western RPG

Aa—… no good

Even though I’m tied up, I can’t help but be a little excited

That’s right

So that everyone thinks of once in their life, the delusion of being in a world si like that has become reality…

While I was busy with hts on that matter, Lisa-san pointed at me

「So, ill happen to him after this?」

The guard looks at me

「For today, we’ll interrogate hiuard room then throw him in the academy discipline chamber until tomorrow As for tomorroe’ll leave those matters up to the headmaster」

Discipline chamber

Now that sounds pleasant

The exciteone in an instant

I involuntarily let out a sigh

「Nn—… Interrogation in the discipline chamber? How about this, why not I take on that role?」

Lisa-san raises her index finger as she asked the guard

「That is not allowed」

The guard immediately rejects the proposal

A slight silence follows

「I’ain, I can’t?」

「I’ain, that is not allowed」

「Stubborn, aren’t you?」

「If I have to state a reason… It is because you have expressed interest in him」

「Hahahaha, I was discovered You saw through me」

「…Indeed」

Disappointed that she didn’t win against the guard, Lisa-san laughs out loud

Mumu… Lisa-san is interested in me?

Being liked by such a person, it seems she doesn’t have any bad intentions

The guard faced toward uy?」

U-mu

Is it possible that this guard… is interested in Lisa-san?

「You see, I can’t see him as anyone bad, you know? At least I don’t see him as spy And I have an eye for these types of people」

「It’s possible that he is acting so that you will see him that way It’s an easy job for a trained spy」

Lisa-san s「Yes, well, it’s possible」

…I expected you to be more persistent with that matter

Meanwhile, we arrived at an open space

It somewhat resembles a dance floor

There are stairs extending fro to the bottom of the floor

「…Um?」

A footstep?

I turn in of those footsteps

So from the stairs

Tap tap

Tap

The footsteps stopped at the middle of the stairs

「Ara? Did so has happen, Lisa?」

While brushi+ng her black hair, the owner of the footsteps—the girl asks

With no doubt she can be called a little girl judging from her appearance…

She gives the impression that she is in primary school

She wears a black dress with laced frills and a headdress on top of her head

Her jet-black hairs extends down to her waist

Her eye color is a deep crimson

They’re not… colored contacts, right?

Her eyes are like jewels

Her appearance is like a doll, the iant

She looks like she is accusto down on others from above

Who is she?

「H-Headmaster」

Straighten The guard corrects his posture

Eh?

Headmaster?

「Yo, Headmaster」

Unlike the guard, Lisa-san greets the head her posture

「I told you that you can call me Makina… Still a little cold aren’t you, Lisa?」

The little girl who seems to be the headmaster called herself Makina

But, headmaster?

I observe the little girl named Makina

As expected… because of her height and body, I can only see her as a child

However, guessing from the title of headed attitude of the guard, there is no doubt that this person is of high stature

「So, I wondering what did this man do?」

The headmaster stares at me who is all tied up

「Ah, he is sorounds and slip within the ranks of Sacred Tree Knight candidates, though I captured him」

The guard breathes loudly through nose, proud

Excuse me

Didn’t you make all that up for your own convenience?

I still think that in the position that I am in, I’m still innocent…

「Fu~n」

The headaze on me shows disinterest

「So?」

The headant attitude puts her hands on her waist

Probably because of her pose, I found it somewhat cute

In that moment, I understood that when the headuard in a panic started speaking

「Ah, uuard roos Then after that place him in the discipline chamber」

「Oh, I thought there was a detention roouard room Why is there a need to place him in the discipline chamber?」

「The detention room is currently under construction」

「Aah, that’s right I forgot」

Detention room

That sounds much better than the discipline chamber

Whythis time…

「…?」

Uum

What?

Immediately after the head atme

「So, what is your purpose in being here?」

I glanced at the guard if I had permission to speak

He gave a look of discontent for a moment then reluctantly nodded

Oh, he gave me permission

If I can explain e somehow

It seems that this child is an influential person

「My objective…? I was only confused as a new student then collapsed and was taken to the infired me was a new student of the academy」

「If that is true, then your are not at fault」

Oh, it’s possible that she is quite understanding, this child

「Eh, eeeh, it is so!」

The headuard

「Personally, I don’t feel it is necessary to question him」

Mu

Will there be resistance?

And—the next ue from behind

The guard takes one step

「T-That can’t be headuy is… suspicious!」

And at that ed her shoulders to help the headmaster out

「Well, he seems to be sincere And his face is not bad」

Oho, the guard is speechless

「T-That’s right… Surely, it was on purpose that he was brought here!」

The guard pointed his finger at erous look

「As expected from a spy of the empire… No, surely he is a companion of the man who escaped of the detention room! Moreover, he is a slovenly man towards women!」

In the spur of the uard add that last part

U~mu

Putting asidea spy or about the man who escaped,

「It is regrettable that I’m slovenly towards wo about my dull life—」

「Annoying! Shut up!」

Suddenly,

Bang!

And

At thatimpact hit me on my back

「—Eeh?」

Tumbles I lost my balance

「Uwaa!?」

「Eh? H-Hey—」

Because both ht onto the headmaster

「…」

U-uh…?

Eh?

Although I fell… It wasn’t painful?

Rather, I felt so soft…

Also, I soood

A sweet and char aroma

Along with that, there was a soft feeling on my face—

I slightly opened my eyes

「…Eh? 」

—This ht?

My face is… on the chest of the headmaster?

This is b-bad!

Moreover, hs of the headmaster… damn!

And I can’t move well because my hands are tied!

In addition, because I can’trestlessly

「Hyaa!? What… d-do you think you’re doing!? H-how rude! Sto…p! Get… away! Do you understand!? If you move… a-any further… If you touchaway easily—Hey, where are you touching now!? 」

「Y-You’re wrong! This is—」

I tried to ood!

With this, I’ainst the headmaster’s body…!

damn

While I et out but the opposite happens as our bodies are entwined in a strange position…!

…

B-But, this sweet scent… I never kneoood…

Perhaps it was the perfume?

Rather, what a!?

This is not the time to think about that!

「Get away from the headmaster, you bastard!」

The guard screa

Confused, I turned my head

Ah

damn!

He is stopping Lisa-san who obviously is trying to help us!

While telling her to fall back because it was dangerous, the guard is hindering her

On the guard’s face lies a slight smile…
