'Not enough! I still need to increase my magic!'
I was practising magic in the magic practicals hall.
I had defeated Brünnhilde-senpai, but I was losing in terms of magic power.
I just played around with my speed, but if we had been shooting magic head-on, I would have lost.
Having been ranked first in the whole senior year, I felt even more braced as I practised my magic.
'Elias, you do it so well. There is no one in this school who can beat you. I don't know why you are in such a rush."
'Anna. It's not about losing to anyone, I'm just trying to reach a higher level."
'Hmmm, you're stoic."
"I agree with you, Anna. Elias, you are overworking yourself. It's counter-productive. It's important to rest."
"Is that so? I think I'm still okay. Well, I think I'll take a break."
"I can't lose. You're always an inspiring figure, Elias."
"Ha-ha-ha. That's good."
"Well, yes. I'm sure you're very motivated by Elias's presence."
"I can't deny that. But I do want him to rest".
Albert's situation has not been completely solved, but I go to the library less often after school.
I've made progress in understanding the magic of the unravelling spell, so I'm spending less time on my studies now.
My joint research with Harriet is also on track, so I tend to leave it to her and other people now.
I use that time to practise magic.
'Elias, may I have a word?
'Yes, what is it? Mira-sama."
"I need you to come with me for a moment. Ilsa-san, you too."
Mira-sama called me.
Where are we going?
There was the teachers' staff.
There was the Valdemar headmaster and Brünnhilde Senpai.
'Hello, Elias.'
Brünnhilde Senpai lost a game against me betting on the king.
Is this a last greeting because she's leaving the school?
If so, it's too sad.
"I have something to tell you."
But what the Valdemar Headmaster told me there was completely unexpected.
Brünnhilde Senpai was expelled from the school as per the rules of the magic matches.
However, she was later allowed to return to school as a special reward for defeating t one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Army.
The credit she had earned before she left school remained the same, and she was also ranked second in the whole school year.
In effect, it was as if she had never left school.
Although it is obvious that he will receive criticism from the students who have left the school so far and their parents, the Valdemar headmaster seems to have taken it in his stride.
'Ha, that's a great deal, isn't it? But why are you telling me about it?'
'It's related. 'Because I can't tell this story without you, Brunnhilde."
'This topic? 'Isn't this the one about Brünnhilde Senpai going back to school?'
"We'll talk about it in more detail at the location we're heading to."
"?"
What does it mean? I knew that one of the four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Army had been defeated because there was a celebration all over the country.
I also knew that it was Brünnhilde-senpai's achievement.
What does that all have to do with me ?
"What does that mean, Ilsa-san?"
'Whatever happens, Elias-kun will be fine. Oh-ho-ho."
"Ha-ha-ha."
She's got a lot of trust in me, doesn't she?
The carriage was parked at the main gate of the academy.
We are going somewhere by this?
"Elias?"
"President Lizbeth."
Why is President Lisbeth here? Is she going to ride in the carriage too?
"Is the President getting in the carriage, too?'
"Yes, that's right. I'm looking forward to it. It's my first trip with Elias-kun."
"No, is it a trip?"
"Of course it is!"
I wonder how it is.
'Elias."
'Listaard-sama.'
" Listerad-sama."
What's the deal? And what's about to happen?
"Sorry to bother you."
"Huh. ......"
I don't know how to react because I don't know what's happening.
'Elias."
" Luisa-sama ".
Even Luisa.
Listerad-sama, Louisa-sama, Mira-sama.
Royalty involved? No, wait.
Me, Brünnhilde senior, Ilsa-san.
People from the three ducal families.
People from the royal family and the dukes have been gathered? But what about President Lisbeth?
I'm still trying to get my head around what's going on.
'The specifics are coming from my father".
From the king? Huh? I don't know what you're talking about at all.
We're going to the capital in a carriage.
. I'm glad to be travelling with you, Elias.'
'Oh, come on, President. This is not a joke, okay?"
"It's fine. 'I'm excited to be in the same space with you, Elias-kun.'
Lizbeth is being rebuked by Brünnhilde Senpai.
It's too much to be chided by Brünnhilde senpai, though.
'Well, I'm glad too, but...'
What is this tension? Isn't something important going to happen from now on?
We arrived at the royal capital.
We get off the carriage and make our way to the royal castle.
We arrive at the audience chamber.
'Welcome, everyone. Let me explain to you what is going to happen."
The king explained to us as follows.
'After Brunnhilde defeated the one of the four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Army, the balance of power between the humans and the demons was changed".
The Kingdom and the Empire therefore decided to join forces.
But they are two nations with a truce and different cultures.
As complete strangers, they would not be able to trust each other's backs.
The first step was to establish exchanges between the two countries' schools.
From the kingdom side, there is the royal family, a member of the ducal family and President Lisbeth as student council president.
In terms of grades, these seven are excellent.
If it were only about grades, Albert would be in this group, but he is currently under suspension.
He didn't make this year's list.
I'm sorry for the suddenness of the matter. Who is willing to decline?"
No one declined.
'Thank you, everyone. But please keep this exchange peaceful. This talk is intended to strengthen the bonds between the kingdom and the empire. Again, I remind you, keep it peaceful. But, again, be civil. Each one of you should be peaceful, but not be licked as a member of the Kingdom, hmm?
I see... peaceful.
I'm going to be peaceful in my own way.
