Vol 1 Chapter 10

Oh, the dark attributes also have recovery magic . 」

「Hai, it can heal the wounded arm . 」

The day after the outdoor training, I was summoned again by the principal, Ronald .

I had been severely scolded for blowing the monster summoning flute by Patrick and apologized yesterday .

「You can grow an arm… what’s the story? 」

「Hai, his arm was damaged . 」

When I said that while pointing to my shoulder, Principal Ronald’s face expression was changing, his usually smiling face stiffen .

I know it was a close call . If it slides a little, it might not be his arm but his head .

「Well, that’s about it . How was his Highness party? 」

I asked about the prince and central nobles results of their outdoor training .

「I think Prince Edwin, William-kun, and Oswald-kun are doing reasonably well . 」

「Ah, you mean that they are the only ones who defeat the monsters . 」

It can’t be helped; central nobles are not eager to leveling up . But why Alicia’s name isn’t mentioned? Her light magic is essential for defeating the demon king .

「All the monsters that appeared seems to have been defeated by them . It’s not good, but the people around them are praising them for it . 」

「That’s good, but what is Alicia-san doing? 」

s

She was a commoner but can use light magic, that’s the reason why she can attend the Royal Academy . It’s not necessary to train light magic, but she can’t slack on leveling .

「Like all the others, she hasn’t defeated a single monster . It seems like his Highness and his friends tell her so . 」

「Do you think she’s willing to do that? 」

「Hmm, Alicia-san seems not as annoyed as she would have others believe under the protection of his Highness . 」

I sighed when I heard the principal’s answer .

In the academy, Alicia is always hanging out with the capture targets . At this pace, she may not be willing to fight voluntarily .

「Are they together all the time at the school? Also, she said she wouldn’t lose, but what does it mean? 」

「I’m pushing Alicia-san to get stronger . Be prepared, she might ask for support . 」

If the time arrives, I’ll just throw her into a dark attribute dungeon . Be happy that the monster that comes out will be in your favor .

Since the day of the outdoor training, my school life has been changed a little . Patrick began to talk to me often .

When we require to get a pair in class, I have no choice but get partnered with him .

「I’m sorry, Patrick-san . You want to be with your friends, right? 」

「Don’t worry, I’m indebted to you . 」

Is this about the injury that I helped to heal? He’s an upright guy .

「Don’t worry about that . And there was a potion, too . 」

「Then, I’ll team up with someone else . 」

「Please take care of the injury that I healed . 」

「This can happen because of you . 」

He’s so friendly that I can lightly bicker with him . Perhaps the best friend I had since I was born in this world .

Since we are in the swordsmanship class, we face each other while holding the wooden sword .

Patrick’s sword movement look amateur, but it’s on point and beautiful . Will those that working for efficiency looks good? It might not be the correct word, but that’s how I describe his training form .

Compared to those, my leveling up would be unsightly and uncouth . Despite I emphasize on efficiency .

「Haa haa, I give up . 」

He seemed to have dropped his wooden sword when I was dodging his sword while my mind was wandering .

「Thank you, partner . 」

Said Patrick while he is trying to regulate his breath .

s

「I’m not a good partner, and I don’t help much . 」

「No, that’s not true . I use Patrick-san’s swordsmanship as a reference . In terms of skill, I’m nowhere near . 」

I simply rely on my high-level reaction speed and power, so don’t make such expression .

「Do you want to learn swordsmanship? What do you want to fight? 」

Well, now that you mention it… with my current condition, I will still be able to defeat the demon king . Isn’t there no point in getting stronger?

But this world is wide . The world is spreading beyond the game map . I wonder if there’s someone stronger than me .

「Isn’t it like a demon king? 」

「Demon king? Is it true that he will be back in two years? 」

「I don’t know . It’s either Prince Edwin’s delusion or his Majesty concealed it . 」

That’s a lie, and I know the truth .

「I can’t say either of them . 」

Lately, the prince was so awful that he can’t tell it was a lie, that the resurrection of the demon king is Prince Edwin’s delusion .

At the school, he’s playing around with Alicia . Recently, the story about having cakes on the courtyard circulated all over the school .

In this state, is the demon king revival is only the prince’s thoughtless remark? Some say that . Also, the rumor about me being the demon king isn’t going down at all . It seems to get stronger after the outdoor training .

「Doesn’t Patrick-san think I’m the demon king? 」

「First of all, isn’t the demon king a male? And I don’t like that they blame it on the black hair . 」

I looked at Patrick, whose tone get a little stronger, and started talking when he noticed it .

「When I was little, I was worried because of my hair color is close to black . When my relatives start saying that I was dark . My family told me they didn’t care, but I always hated this dark hair . 」

While saying that, he touched his grey hair . If I had to say, I think it was grey and closer to white .

「I think it’s whiteish . 」

「Oh, white? Compared to Yumiela, that’s right .

That’s why I respect you, you had black hair, and you’re so confident about it . And I swear not to despise the color of my hair . 」

Patrick stared at me when he said that . I averted my gaze when it began making me embarrassed .

I thought it was something like a confession . Nope, not at all .

「Thank you . I think Patrick’s grey hair is lovely . 」

「Thanks, I think your black hair is also pretty . 」

When I reached my embarrassed limit in the conversation, I invite him for a mock battle to end the conversation .

「Ah, ano, why don’t we have another fight? 」

「Okay, I don’t mind . 」

When I can’t get my mind to settle, I make a mistake with my strength . As a result, I send Patrick flying .

「I’m so sorry, please forgive me . 」

I frantically apologize while using recovery magic . And I can feel the painful stare from my surroundings .

s

Patrick opened his eyes and got up . I’m glad that he didn’t lose consciousness .

「I’m fine, and the pain is gone . I’ve always thought that the recovery magic feels comfortable . 」

「It looks bad, though . 」

His face looks bitter when he remembers how his flesh swollen up and his wound recover .

「To be able to use dark magic, Yumiela is amazing . 」

「I’m just lucky . 」

The magic attribute that can be used is sometimes determined when they are born . Denying his words, Patrick shakes his head .

「It is not . If I can use dark magic, I might hide my ability .

Just like with the hair, Yumiela didn’t deny it . It’s not something that I can do . 」

When I heard that, there’s one thing that comes in my mind .

「Was Yumiela able to use dark magic from birth? 」

In the game, it was explained that when Yumiela falls into the darkness, she could use dark magic . But the truth might be different .

At school, in-game Yumiela is hiding her ability to use dark magic . If that’s the case, she must have hated the heroine, who was loved by everyone around her and proudly using her light magic .

「Huh? Yumiela could use dark magic, couldn’t she? 」

I thought about myself in the game when Patrick looked at me strangely, I tell him not to worry .
