“Cough! Cough!”
A stone statue. I had heard from Eloise something like that. I just completely forgot because I had never noticed it until now.
“Senior stone statue, it’s a popular place in Valhalla these days. They say you can feel a magical energy there! Let’s go too.”
“No, I…”
[The Constellations are curious about the stone statue.]
“…Let’s go and see it.”
The stone statue stood tall in the middle of a resting place that appeared as you entered the walking path.
“Oh, there.”
The students, who noticed my existence, whispered and looked at me. They all seemed to have come to see the stone statue.
As soon as I checked the statue, I lost what to say. With its long hair flowing and gentle expression, the stone statue seemed to be playing with the animals in the forest. It was like a statue of God Artemis. The excessive beautification of the stone statue is ridiculous, and my head throbbed when I saw flowers and fruits believed to have been brought by students around it. I even saw a bottle of wine.
“What the? This is an ominous sight, right?”
Ding!

[Is this the altar of Theresa?]
I don’t know if it’s an altar or a ritual table, but I do know that my stone statue has become a breeding ground for twisted shamanism.
Reini explained. “They made an offering to gain magical energy from Senior.”
“Why on earth do they pay offerings to the living person? Isn’t it blasphemy in the first place?”
“You’re arguing a lot.”
I was in a state of shock because there was absolutely no common sense conversation taking place.
Among the people who visited the statue, someone seemed to feel sorry for me.
“Theresa idiot?”
It was a very low-quality graffiti.
“Was it Mimosa?” I squinted my eyes with a reasonable suspicion.
They should at least put up a no-access fence around the statue.
I didn’t like everything, whether it was offering or graffiti. My head felt hurt. I needed to get out of here.
“I’ll go to the club room now.”
“I should go to the lab soon.”
We left the chaotic space and headed to our respective destinations.
Creek. “I’m here.”
Unlike me, who was gloomy from the mental blow, the ladies gathered in the club room laughed like a cosmos tickled by the wind. They welcomed me with faces full of vitality.
“You’re here, Lady Theresa! The weather is so nice today, right? Fufufu!”
“Lady Theresa! Would you like to sit here? We were tasting Lady Hains’s first-ever baked cookies!”
Do they have any difficulties?
I looked around to see if Lumio was there and settled among the ladies. I can’t see her again today. Well, it was also natural as it was difficult to meet her because she only went to school for 10 days in a month.
At that time, a young lady spoke gloomily. “Aah. These days, I can’t seem to focus on the contents of the lecture, maybe because of Lord Clyde’s withdrawal symptoms.”
“You too? Me too.”
“I didn’t know how precious the time was when I could see Lord Clyde, even from afar. They say that you only realize the value of something after you’ve lost it…”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘If Being Handsome Is a Sin, Clyde Deserves a Death Penalty’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Who is the creator of this? Follow me to the rooftop.]
Their greatest adversity in life was the loss of their idol.
“Our Lord Clyde may be the greatest wizard in the world, but that doesn’t mean you have to send him to the dungeon without a break!”
“The chairman is really mean!”
It was certainly a strange thing. I don’t know if he’s conquering a dungeon with players, but Clyde doesn’t do it alone in the game. This was definitely a different flow from the original. In other words, this means that the change occurred because of me.
Is it possible that the chairman has realized that we have become close friends and is trying to separate us? That too was an absurd guess. Even when playing as Libby, the Squire family put on barriers, but no setting caused such a blatant separation.
Clap! At that time, Patricia clapped her hands to get our attention.
“Now that everyone seems to be gathered, shall we talk about today’s agenda? Let’s all decide together what Clybe should do during the festival.”
“Yes~”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Question Mark Killer’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Why is there a festival?]
The explanation was given by Patricia.
“Let me tell you the purpose of the Valhalla Festival for our cutie freshmen.”
“Yes~”
The first-year Clybe members responded like chicks.
“Valhalla Festival is a large-scale charity party. The profits earned from the festival are used to restore areas damaged by demons and dungeons.”
The point was simple. The key is to revitalize the empire, which is losing vitality due to the demons and monsters, and to take care of the lives of commoners with the money the nobles spend at festivals.
“Social clubs that apply to participate in festivals must use their individual talents to make a profit. You can run a restaurant, perform, or make and sell products. Do you understand up to this point~?”
“Yes~”
“Quiz here! From when to when will the festival be held?”
Then, the bright-looking freshman raised her hand and answered. “May 17th to 18th, two days!”
“You’re right! Everyone applauds ~”
Clap, clap, clap! Everyone looked at the freshman lady, and applauded.
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Hardcore’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[If you join this club, your self-esteem will increase tremendously;]
I agreed with the Constellation’s opinion with a shocked expression.
Patricia continued her explanation like a one-shot instructor in an online platform class. “At the end of the festival, we select the social club that achieved the most profits. And all club members receive extra points and can have their club’s name listed in the Hall of Fame.”
“Woooow~”
At that moment, Patricia coolly opened her eyes. “Ridiculously enough, the number one social club last year was Demisa.”
“Unbelievably, last year’s number one social club was Demisa.”
“Aah, how could something like that happen…!”
The young lady, who was quietly listening to the explanation, opened her notebook and spoke. “I have information I got from an informant. It is said that Demisa will hold a concert in a hall decorated with magic plants this year.”
Then, the ladies, who had seemed like a flock of gentle sheep just now, said one thing at a time with scary expressions, like black goats possessed by the demon.
“Hmph, who would go to such an event that only costs money?”
“Do you know which hall it is? I’m not trying to sabotage it. I’m just curious.”
Guys, calm down. This is a festival, not a war…
Patricia opened her mouth with a look of anguish. “There are other variables at this festival. It’s about whether Princess Cecilia Kapento and Lady Isabel will perform well.”
Then, everyone groaned.
“Which club are those two in? Surely it’s not Demisa, right?”
“They’re not in Demisa, but they’re members of the arts and culture social club where the vice president is.”
“As far as I hear, their club is also deciding what to do today.”
Come to think of it, Libby is a member of that club, right?
They were at the cafe together earlier, so it looks like they were deciding what to do at the festival.
I solved the information I knew.
“The club is going to do a one-act play.”
The young lady, who had spies scattered all over the place, asked with a surprised look on her face because I knew something she didn’t. “Oh my, how did you know that?”
“I overheard it.”
“Aha.”
Everyone moved on without much doubt. They seemed to believe that Theresa was someone who could do something like that.
“We should prepare something even greater!”
“That’s right! That’s right! This year’s Hall of Fame is ours!”
“Let’s defeat Demisa! Thoroughly trample on them so they don’t even sprout!”
I listened while Clybe sparked a fierce rivalry. Whatever it was, it had nothing to do with me.
Ding!

“…”
I adjusted my posture and sat down.
They say the system is being restored, but they don’t show any goodwill and do everything they can. Isn’t this done on purpose?
Ozworld, go die! Die. Die!
While I silently prayed for Ozworld’s death, the ladies raised their hands one by one and gave their opinions on what to do during the festival.
“Why don’t we set up a fountain where alcohol flows in front of here?”
Dismissed. The budget is too high.
“Let’s call a famous circus troupe!”
Dismissed. The budget is too high.
“What about building a small hunting ground?”
Dismissed. The budget is too high.
“We also do extravagant plays! The main character is Lord Clyde.”
Dismissed. There’s no way he would do it.
As they couldn’t come up with a good opinion, the ladies quickly began to cry.
“Huaaah. It’s too difficult.”
…What on earth is so difficult?
They only had an idea to use money and people to make a decent living with the skills that others can make, right?
I told the ladies who have a bad habit of trying to solve everything with money. “You have to budget appropriately. We rank clubs by calculating the profit earned compared to the budget spent.”
“That’s true…”
The key was to make a lot of money with a small budget. That’s how you’ll get first place.
“Is there a way to make outsiders spend a lot of money while having a small budget?”
“Does that really exist?”
“It’s like the probability of my younger brother getting married. He’s really the worst.”
The best way is to do business using the talent each person has.
I opened my eyes wide. “Is there anyone here who can play an instrument?”
Then, most of them raised their hands. Ooh. After all, they’re noble ladies.
“Who’s good at drawing?”
This time, about half of them raised their hands.
“Is there anyone who can write well?”
Most of them raised their hands this time.
I asked a few more questions, and most of the young ladies surprisingly did well. Although it’s a strange group that is crazy about Clyde’s face, I realized that they’re students at a prestigious school.
“Our club is a gathering of talented people.”
Clap, clap, clap! As I applauded and admired them, everyone laughed as if they were happy to hear the compliment.
“But why did you ask this?”
I answered with a meaningful expression. “I have a way to get people to spend a lot of money.”
“Cough! Cough!”
A stone statue. I had heard from Eloise something like that. I just completely forgot because I had never noticed it until now.
