Chapter 1704: The Training Camp Might Be Quite Troublesome (1/2)
The training camp had been decided, and Sicily proposed the training camp would be held at her territory where there were many hot springs. Still, since they needed to go quite far away, they needed someone who could monitor them, and the one who would monitor them would be both Melinda and Merlin since both of them somehow felt worried that their grandson might teach something that couldn't be taught by anyone.
After all, both Melinda and Merlin knew that there would be 11 students from both Els and Ys Nation that would be sent to the Magic Academy to join the Ultimate Magic Research Society to maintain the balance between nations which made them helpless. Still, they also understood that it was because of their grandson's fault, so they didn't say much, and it was also the reason why both of them came with them to the training camp.
Melinda, Merlin, Shin, and August were on the same carriage along the journey, but Melinda couldn't help but admire Haru's carriage. ”Haru, your carriage doesn't have a horse?”
Haru shook his head with a smile and said, ”No, I use my magic to move my carriage.”
”.......” Melinda looked at the horseless carriage, then looked at Haru, thinking that she might be someone who would match Shin.
Shin also looked at Haru's carriage and was amazed. ”It's a car!”
”Car?” Everyone was looking at Shin weirdly.
”Oh, ah, nothing!” Shin quickly shook his head and pretended nothing had happened. After all, he didn't expect the people in this world to create the prototype of the modern car.
”Aunt Melinda, we can talk later during training camp,” Haru said since he wanted to enjoy the hot spring.
Melinda nodded and said, ”That's true. If we're in a hurry, then we might be able to arrive at Claude's territory tonight.”
Then everyone went to their own carriage, but Melinda glanced at Haru for the last time and was surprised when he saw four girls enter his carriage directly, then looked at his grandson that only came with August, which made her frown.
The trip started, and Melinda couldn't help but ask, ”Shin, don't you have a girlfriend?”
”G - Girlfriend?” Shin was dumbfounded and quickly shook his head. ”No, I don't have a girlfriend, grandma.”
”You're already in 15! You're an adult! You should get a girlfriend, you know?” Melinda scolded Shin.
Shin was bitter, after all, even though he was interested in someone, the girl he was interested in didn't show affection toward him, and he also wasn't sure how to get close to that girl. After all, he was a virgin in his previous life without any experience with the opposite gender.
”Shin, this time, I agree with your grandmother.” Merlin looked at Shin and asked, ”Still, even if you don't have a girlfriend, is there a girl that you're interested in?”
”Well...” Shin blushed, and he was quite shy.
August sighed but didn't say much.
”August, do you know who Shin is crushed with?” Melinda asked.
”.......” August wasn't sure what to say, but being stared at by the Wise Man and the Guru, he could only say, ”Probably, Claude.”
”Aug!” Shin's face was so red at that moment.
”Oh? That beautiful blue-haired girl?” Merlin nodded and said, ”Yes, she's beautiful.” He thought that Sicily was quite suitable for his grandson.
”Really?” Melinda asked weirdly.
”Um...” Even though Shin was shy, he nodded.
Merlin was happy, but Melinda and August couldn't say much. After all, they had a feeling that Shin's love life wouldn't be easy.
---
The trip was quite smooth, though. Some demons appeared along the way before. They instantly perished since everyone was powerful, but enough of that since they had arrived at Sicily's territory.
”Welcome to the city of Claude!”
Haru observed the town, and the only thing that came to mind was that this place was like a hot spring resort town, which was pretty much an interesting place.
They didn't stop in the city but moved directly to the manor, where Sicily's servants had been waiting for them.
”Everyone, we're here,” Sicily said with a smile.
