"What are you doing? Stop it!"
Teacher Marine halted our fight.
She was supposed to be t in charge , but why?
'We've cleared out most of the Demon Lord's army, so when I came to the front, what is this? There were other inexplicable moves by Albert-kun's faction. Explain."
[......]
Albert is silent.
He has lost his will to fight and his expression is listless.
Sensei Marine, I'm sorry to be so intrusive, but may I explain it to you?"
'Yes. ......'
Guild officials.
They're observing us from a distance during the adventurer training to assess our rewards.
They are working for the assessment, they don't come to help us fight.
The guild official, who doesn't come to aid us in our fight and doesn't interfere in our fight, unusually opened spoken up.
'We were watching the students fighting as usual to assess their rewards. At first, they appeared to be carrying out their requests without danger as usual. However, there was something out of the ordinary. Albert's comrades were moving to divide Elias's comrades. And Albert's comrades were attacking Elias's comrades. Elias and his comrades had no choice but to fight back. We are only working to evaluate the situation. But we couldn't help but intervene. We are here to protect the security of the country, Elias-sama. And you are raising the guild's profits, hmm."
'I didn't realise that. ...... Thank you for taking the trouble to explain.'
I can't thank you enough, Elias-sama. I'll leave you to it."
The staff member left.
But he did not go back to the guild, he was watching from a distance as he still had observation duties to do.
'So that's what happened. Even if it was self-defence for Elias, you, Albert, are going to have to give a full explanation for this when we get back to school.'
'......'
Teacher Marine's tone is stern, but she doesn't want Albert to explain here.
Albert has lost his will to fight, and although the battle is almost over, the Demon King's army is still there.
We can't remain in this place for too long.
From now on, we will return to the guild while defeating the remaining army.
'Albert!"
It was when we were about to return to the guild.
Emily comes down from the sky.
When Emily rushed up to Albert's side, there was a clang! sound echoed around the area.
Emily slapped Albert on the cheek.
"Emily, ......."
'Why! Why did you do this! You can't win against Elias! You need to know your place!"
Emily's angry voice echoed around the area.
'Why, ......? I wonder why .......'
Albert muttered to himself in a low voice.
You should answer me properly! You're the one who ...... you're the one who ...... ugh .......'
Emily's emotions are so agitated that she can't speak.
'Emily, don't do this. Albert was strong. We fought with all our might. The result was that I won, but it could have turned out either way. Besides, it hurts his pride when the girl he loves talks to him like that."
Shit...... I even said unnecessary things.......
I couldn't help but interrupt Emily's statement.
'Eh? Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh! Wait, what do you mean oh oh ！！！！."
Emily blushed and exclaimed.
'Tsk ...... Elias, you're going the extra mile .......'
'You don't deny it, do you? Besides, you're feeling better,now, aren't you?"
'Shut up.'
Albert's eyes were now brimming with life.
'Hey, what do you really mean oh? Aaaaah! Really?"
Emily was too shocked to take in the situation.
'Damn ...... you didn't realise. You're too blind......, that's right, I wanted to win over Elias, I wanted Emily to recognise me...... I didn't want you to think I was a weak man... ...I wanted you to tell me you liked me. Yes,...... I realise now. My feelings. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Albert's wail echoed around the area.
'Albert...... I didn't want Albert to become stronger. I liked the kind Albert from before. No, it doesn't have to be kind. Albert is Albert. All I wanted was for you to be there. Why did you forget that ...... ugh ...... ugh ......."
A sob escapes Emily.
'Emily......."
I don't know what to say.
Albert walks up to me.
'Elias, this time I lost. But I will beat you. Just wait and see."
'Hey, Albert! That's enough. It said you didn't need to be strong anymore."
Albert's fighting spirit has returned.
Emily is puzzled by this.
'Oh, come any time. Come again, but not like this, but in a magic match. Emily, a man can't end up losing. I won't lose. You have nothing to worry about."
"Damn it, do you think I'm going to keep my word? I'll do whatever I want. Fuck."
'Fuck. ......"
Albert says, I want to believe that this won't happen again.
Just because he won the fight, he didn't go back to the kind and pure Albert he used to be.
But the wickedness before the fight seems to have lessened somewhat.
Heartily, his expression and tone of voice have become kinder.
'We've already cleared the frontline of the Demon King's army, let's go back.'
Marine-sensei gave the order to return.
We're going back to the guild now.
My relationship with Albert didn't return to the way it was five years ago.
There is no need for us to go back.
People are creatures who change.
We can build a new relationship now.
