39 Chapter 39 ~ A Rather Short Conversation - Filler Chapter (2/2)

[ That... I'm sorry, but I already have some troublesome students of my own. ]

[ Huh...? You mean those slaves...? Just what are you planning to do teaching them? If you're already this powerful, why do you still have to teach your combat slaves...? ] she annoyingly asked.

[ I've still yet to teach them magic and techniques, but I'm confident they're more skillful than you are. ]

[ Hu-Huh!? ]

[ Unlike you, they already have much experience with all kinds of situations. With me as their guide, they've already fought with monsters much much stronger than any you have ever fought. ]

In the past week, Vlad had trained them to their limits. Fighting foes that are much higher in level, only defeating them with skills, strategy, and teamwork. Vlad had also put them into situations where they could lose their lives, and he taught them ways that will allow them to survive.

Right now...

[ Those slaves... Unlike you, they will never make any mistakes that will trouble me. ]

[ Are... Are you mocking me...!? ]

[ Of course not... All that I'm saying is they're no ordinary slaves, they're my students. It's better not looking down on them. ] looking back at Alicia's eyes with seriousness, he replied.

[ Hmm... And about why I decided to train them... That's a secret too. ]

[ Tsk! Enough of those slaves! Answer me! Will you teach me or not!? ]

Pushing her question to him further with her whole face turning red in anger, Vlad was not able to immediately think of a reply.

( Well... It looks like she's more trouble than those trios... I don't think I will be able to handle this girl. Additionally... I have no reason to train her too at all... )

[ Come on! Which is it! I'll pay you, just tell me how much you want! ]

( Hmm... )

Name: Alicia Silverstone

Level: 62

Job Class: Mage/ Summoner

Health: 1239/1239

( Well... She definitely grew from when the first time I've met her... She's the most compatible person I could teach, but... I don't like her attitude.... )

[ Alicia-san... Why exactly do you want to become the strongest...? Why do you want me to teach you? ] Vlad asked the most trivial question.

[ That's... I just want to become a help to someone... To the person who said he'll be the strongest... ] she replied hesitantly.

( It's Arthur, isn't it...? Should I call it lucky...? Or Unlucky? That bastard of a guy... I wonder what did he do to have this girl's affection? ) Vlad muttered to himself, scratching the top of his head.

[ Haah... I'm sorry, but I don't think I will be able to teach you... ]

( Not with that shabby reason... )

[ Wh-why!? You accepted teaching slaves but you won't teach a noble like me!? ]

[ You are, huh? Well, it's not surprising. ]

[ You didn't know...? Aren't you a noble yourself!? My family's name are known to all noble families even outside of this country! If you know that, then you should accept my request! ]

[ Stop kidding around. I'm not a noble of some kind. I'm just an ordinary person. ]

[ No-Not noble... An ordinary person... ] as if she was not able to believe what she just heard, she stared blankly stared at the face of Vlad.

[ I can't believe it... But then... That's the more reason you should accept my request! If you're a commoner, then you can't disobey a noble! ]

[ Is that how it works...? ]

( I guess it is, huh? And now she's threatening me with it. She looks really desperate about it... )
