While I was lost in thought and slowly moving the spoon, Eloise came with a new school uniform. Since today is the day when all Valhalla students wear summer uniforms, the school uniforms have also changed. She carefully checked whether there were any problems with my uniforms and nodded her head.
“I think it’s too simple for Lady to wear, but there’s no problem.”
The design of the Valhalla summer uniform was focused on looking as fresh and refreshing as possible. The top was a white short-sleeved blouse with a blue ribbon, and the bottom was a blue skirt the same color as the ribbon.
After changing out my school uniform, I attached a brooch from my inventory to the ribbon. Then, the brooch shape changed.
Ding!

[Latest technology ㄷㄷ.]
“Oh my, isn’t that a unique brooch?”
Eloise thought a little of the item I found in the dungeon, saying it was very strange and interesting. In fact, this brooch was more unique than usual.
After changing into my summer clothes, I definitely looked fresh and matched the season.
“Everything our Lady wears becomes a luxury item!”
Eloise’s delusion was getting worse.
“I’ll be back.”
The book I was going to read on the way to school today was <Bloodline and Arcane Magic.> The arcane magic of the Squire family didn’t show in <God’s Play>, but I had a hunch that I should look into it.
That black butterfly I saw in Patheon. It definitely looked exactly like the Squire family emblem.
If we were to compare arcane magic to martial arts, it was like a family’s special move that the head of the family only passed down to the heirs. The Squire was a family founded by now-vanished black wizards. However, as this family uses powerful black magic, they’re also gifted with white magic, which is the opposite.
However, after losing arcane magic, only ordinary wizards with ordinary magical powers were produced. Then, the setting that Libby would awaken as the white wizard in this generation. There’s no setting anywhere in the game for ‘Squire Butterfly’ to appear.
As I was walking while reading the book with a serious expression, Clyde approached me from behind.
“You will fall if you walk while reading a book.”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Face Inspector’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Crazy! Now that I think about it, the male protagonists also changed into summer clothes!]
Wearing a white top, blue tie, and gray pants, Clyde looked so sacred.
“Uh, Clyde. You’re coming to the school?”
Clyde was the most popular and famous wizard in the empire, so his activities outside the school were also numerous. Therefore, even if he didn’t necessarily go around the dungeon, he often didn’t come to school, depending on the situation. But it seems that I see him quite often these days.
I asked Clyde. “You’re going to have lunch with me today, right?”
At my words, Clyde gave a somewhat evil-looking smile. “Of course. How much does the new equipment I brought into the lab cost?”
That’s strange. I’m sure we’re talking together, but why doesn’t the content match?
“Yes. See you at lunch.”
I headed to the lab to give Reini a lunch box. Then I ran into Damian, who was coming out of his personal lab. He also changed his outfit from black winter clothes to fresh summer clothes.
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Romance Pass’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Haa… This is the taste of a school-themed story.]
The moment I saw him, a soft smile appeared on my lips. “Hi, Damian.”
Damian looked at me with somewhat blank eyes, then greeted me with a slightly embarrassed face. “…Good morning, Theresa.”
We greeted each other normally and passed each other.
I was relieved. Now, even when I saw Damian, I didn’t feel sentimental or heartbroken for any reason. I had come to accept that Damian was different from Damian in front of me. Because Damian must be wanting the same.
Everything was returning to normal.
“Greetings, Professor!”
As soon as I found Ilya in the hallway, I called out to him. Ilya had hidden dark red hair tied up and was wearing a light suit that suited the season.
He asked in an indifferent tone. “Do you have any business?”
“No. I said hello because I was glad to see you…”
Ilya looked thoughtful for a moment at my words. “I see you every time I lecture, so why are you happy to see me?”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Timid Attention-seeker’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Rather than feeling like he doesn’t know the emotions of an insignificant human because he’s a transcendental being, it feels like he’s an android who is learning social skills.]
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Rotten Taste’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Love with android? It’s rather good.]
For some strange reason, I started feeling sorry for Kike and Benito.
Umm. With this, it seemed like the archdemon’s question wouldn’t end.
“Professor, aren’t you glad to see me?”
So, the answer was to respond to a question with a question.
Ilya answered my counter-question without taking too long. “Not bad.”
“Ah.”
He doesn’t feel so happy to see me.
[Likeability:
I checked his likeability rating just in case, and it was still 2 red hearts.
Right, Ilya was originally this kind of character…
I said goodbye to him awkwardly, “I’m sorry for bothering you. Then I will go.”
“When did I say it was annoying?” He asked with a still indifferent look.
“You just said you don’t feel so happy to see me…”
“I just don’t feel particularly welcome it. It’s not that I’m bothered.”
I see. I don’t know what the difference is.
Ilya looked lost in thought and opened the lab door. “Come in. I’ll give you a book that you might find interesting.”
Is he doing this to prove that I don’t bother him?
He stared at me. “Why are you smiling?”
“Me?”
“Yes. You smile at me often. I don’t know why.”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Haha Boss’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[My heart is filled with joy as the teacher and disciple meet each other.]
There was no particular reason for smiling. So I couldn’t think of a proper answer and gave him a questionable reason.
“That’s… because it’s fun?”
Then Ilya smiled faintly.
“Ah, Professor, now too—”
It was before I could finish saying, ‘You’re smiling.’
Kwang! Keduduk! Kedududuk! A loud noise sounded exactly from Professor Felix’s laboratory, and the magic plant that had swept the festival before burst through the door.
“Uaaaaah! Save me!”
Professor Felix, whose feet were wrapped in vines, was also there. The vine reached out to me like an arrow aimed at a target, but it started burning at an incredible speed. It was Ilya who burned the vines with magic.
“W-wait! Drop me off first… Kyaak!”
All the vines were burned down, so of course, the vines that were wrapped around Professor Felix’s ankles were all turned into ashes. Professor Felix fell like a fallen leaf and crashed down to the floor.
“What on earth is going on, Professor?”
As a disciple, I helped Professor Felix up and asked him. Then Professor Felix stood up, holding my hand, and answered cheerfully.
“I was examining the vines, and suddenly it’s just going wild? I was really surprised.”
Whether the professor was surprised or not, that wasn’t the problem. I looked at the lab and asked anxiously. “What about the animals?”
“Umm, I’ve sent them all back to nature, so there’s no one there now.”
Phew. That was a relief.
Professor Felix muttered bitterly. “No one cares about me…” He put his hand into the round glasses and pretended to poke tears that had not even come out.
I widened my eyes at once. “Can you say something like that after causing a big accident. What would you have done if Professor Ilya wasn’t here?”
“Ei. Then, our genius wizard Theresa would have solved it!”
“It’s not wrong.”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Professional Instructor’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[I don’t know whether to point out if it’s okay to scold the professor or to point out your tendency to easily accept the remark of being a genius without raising any objections.]
Then Ilya called Professor Felix in a blunt voice. “Professor Felix, how do you intend to handle this?”
“Huh? What do you… Gasp!”
In the aftermath of the vines running rampant, even the wall of Professor Ilya’s laboratory, the room right next to Professor Felix, was destroyed.
Ilya hated sharing space with others. In particular, he hated it more if it was with troublemakers like Professor Felix.
He stared at Professor Felix.
“Ahaha, should we do some repair work?”
“…”
“Or should I just close it with a curtain first?”
“…”
“Hiing. Theresa, what should I do?”
Why are you asking me that?
“I have some business to do at the alchemy lab, so I’ll go there first.”
“No! Don’t leave me!”
“Please don’t drag me. Well then, goodbye.”
I pulled myself out of the scene of the disastrous accident.
After bringing Reini a lunch box, I stopped by the student council room and checked the bulletin board to see if there were any missions for today, then went to the library on the first floor to read a book before my first class.
“There’s no one here today.”
The library wasn’t a popular place, but there were zero users today.
“Hmm.”
Originally, I was planning to open the door to paradise more slowly. Still, I changed my mind when I remembered Professor Felix had just made an accident.
“Dungeons kept opening at unexpected times.”
There was no way it wouldn’t be next time. What if the timing of opening the Gates of Paradise is missed due to an unpredictable accident?
This won’t do.
The Gates of Paradise was connected to a private reading room at the very end of the library on the first floor. There was no one in the library right now, so it was the perfect time to open it.
I took the keys to the dimension out of the inventory and moved to the corner of the private reading room. “I’ll check on the Easter egg right now.”
[The Constellations are curious about what Easter egg here would be.]
Valhalla’s Easter egg wasn’t a fraudulent item like the former Duke Squire’s slush fund or legendary potion.
“When you open the private reading room, an emerald beach and white sand beach unfold. Your clothes would also change to suit the beach.”
It was an Easter egg where you can appreciate the bonus illustration.
Originally, it was rare to hide meaningful items in Easter eggs. So, if paradise didn’t appear, players could enjoy a brief sea bath while enjoying the beautiful scenery. That was the end of it.
I held the dimension key to the doorknob.
While I was lost in thought and slowly moving the spoon, Eloise came with a new school uniform. Since today is the day when all Valhalla students wear summer uniforms, the school uniforms have also changed. She carefully checked whether there were any problems with my uniforms and nodded her head.
