Chapter 292: Izumo and Iroha (2/2)

The currentin the Acaderee I have a clear oath, a clear conviction that I didn’t have in the past

I have to go

“That’s a nice face you have there, Izumo Everyone else as well I will say it with confidence here Once you return alive from this, you will have coht even obtain a big step that will connect to what’s further ahead Well then, go Make sure not to forget greeting Waka-sama” (shi+ki)

“Yes!!”

Several voices overlap

I wonder what kind of expression I have right now

At the very least, I haven’t felt this fresh since the tian to apply it

This is the second time in my life

shi+ki-san holds his staff in both hands and draws a circle

As always, there’s no aria

The inside of the drawn circle had white denseout from it

“Yeah, the current Izuht have fallen for you” (Yuno)

Yuno givesserious

As she is always saying that if she were to marry someone, she has to be the number one or she doesn’t want to, it e with the second daughter of a merchant, there’s the possibility, but it is most likely impossibile for her to become my first wife

Also, the Rembrandt Company is definitely not a simple wealthy merchant company

I look around

Jin, Amelia, Misura, Daena, Sif, and Yuno; the first comrades I can rely with this life ofdryly all this ti alone to Kannaoi, but they said they will be co as if natural They are the best friends I could have

Even when shi+ki-san has told thee

If I didn’t knohat laid ahead of this

I readied myself and wear the amulet that shi+ki-san distributed to everyone An equipment that he told us not to take off no o

I stand at the front and step into the h a s of Lorel At that place, there’s the one working at Kuzunoha Coirl I have never seen before

And also…

“Izumo-sama?”

“Princess Iroha” (Izu of Lorel

We both called out each other’s na: ‘thanks for the nore it And after that, I also heard a blunt sound followed by an ‘Ouch, that hurts Onee-chan!’, but I also ignore that one

Good grief, do these kind of things really happen?

We both shouldn’t knoe look, and yet, we both were able to knoho each other was the moment our eyes met

If my dream, the happiness of this person, ations I have, all connect with each other, there would be nothing as blissful as that

“…”

After calling her na out any words

Ah, I love this girl

I have never felt like this in Academy Town

I can clearly declare this

“Ah, so it was Izumo huh And Jin and the others as well I have heard about the ‘circumstances’ Nice to see you here Welcome to the battlefield” (Lime)

“Lime-san” (Izumo)

“Sorry, but leave the romantic reunion for later We don’t havethis place as soon as possible and leave the city And the highest priority is to regroup with Boss –Raidou-sama” (Lime)

“Y-Yes!”

“Jin, I heard you just came out from sickbed, but this is a decision you made Since you have come, you will have to show results” (Lime)

“…I know” (Jin)

Jin replies to the instructions in my stead

He didn’t coot injured, but I wonder what happened Jin has not told us yet But the resolve that lies in those eyes, there’s no doubt that he has becoer than before

…Co?

For an instant, I forgot coht

I will protect princess Iroha Even if my ability is poor, I came here in order to protect her

“I have heard plenty about you guys’ strength from Brother shi+ki Let’s wrap up the self-introductions while we are escaping from here What’s important is the safety of princess Iroha The protection of the princess will be firstly done by the maids That’s why, there’s no need to think about unnecessary teao about your usual teamith your usual comrades to protect princess Iroha” (Lime)

“…Understood” (Misura)

Misura nods

How reassuring

If he were to seriously do the protecting, I feel like the escape and bodyguarding can be done at the sao I have already spoken to the princess and the others about the route Once we go outside, don’t trust anyone Also…” (Lilances at Sif and Yuno, and for only an instant, he stopped his words

“…Don’t hesitate On the eneher level than yours andanyone except the princess It ht even be that everyone there won’t hesitate” (Lime)

…

With an incredibly indifferent voice that held no emotions which I have never seen before from him, Lime-san continues

“That’s why, don’t hesitate Notheir blade at you, don’t think about it and just cut them down There’sYou guys make sure you never enter those numbers” (Lime)

“…Thank you very much, Lime-san” (Izumo)

A kindness that couldn’t be detected froratitude honestly came out of my mouth

Now that I think about it, have I ever been able to feel true gratitude at warnings before I ratitude at too!!” (Lime)

“Yes!”

My eyes ht, a war wells up

I forcefully push the will —in order to protect

“Izuuard of Iroha-sa forward to working with you Well then, first of all, let’s escape the hotel! Follow uard of Iroha-sama, name’s Yuduki I will not think of you people as students, but close aides of the princess All excuses like ‘this is my first time’ are a no Do your best, okay?” (Yuduki)

“My naetsu, Izu, let’s overcoetsu)

I will do it

Even if I have to bring out everything that is held within this body ofout everything out ofthe Princess to where Sensei is

We will all bring her there!
