Participants [Part 1]

(Is this king… sane?)

Thought the students who participated in the extracurricular lesson.

Because the king suggested that they change a part of the lesson content and go to the forest where monsters appear.

(Let’s say it once more.

Is this king sane?)

Monster Science and Practical Skills for Hunters’ teachers also thought,

‘Is this king serious?

Because he suggested that we go to the forest roamed by monsters just because Count Stuart, Dr. Stuart, and academy teachers were present.

No, wait, has it been decided that we’ll go too? Do we have any say in this?

We’ll say this again.

Is this king serious?’

“ “………” ”

“Hm? The volunteers who want to participate are only this few?”

The king pouted, looking bored.

“ “!?” ”

(No, it’s the opposite! Who is it?! Who is it that raises his hand?!

Who is the mad suicidal person who wants to participate in such an unreasonable plan?!)

Shocked by the king’s words, the students and teachers looked around them to search for the person in question and were met with the sight of George Stuart raising his hand like it was a matter of course.

(Ah, well… I see…)

Everyone present somehow understood if it were him… but.

(Hm?)

Even George’s younger brother standing beside him, William Stuart, also raised his hand.

(No, no, no, no.

It’s dangerous, so why would a small child raise his hand…?)

(Hm?)

(HMMMM?)

(Wait a sec, oi oi oi oiii!

The one with one hand raised next to George’s younger brother William next to him is… Lady Emma?!)

(THE fragile Lady Emma, who has always been ill and in critical condition??)

(HMMM?)

(Wait, the young ladies behind Lady Emma are also raising their hands?!

No, no, no, no, no… Well, it made sense if it were the daughter of the Knight Order Commander, Lady Marion.

For argument’s sake, that was only if it were Lady Marion.

But what’s up with the twins who were raising their hands in high spirits next to Lady Marion?!

You won’t be going into the forest to play and sightsee, you know that, right?)

(Also, Lady Francesca standing beside the twins!

You don’t have to raise your hand if you hate the idea so much that you can’t stop trembling. Just what are you doing?!)

“As expected of the king, huh, Caitlyn. I want to see a living monster.”

“You’re right. As expected of the king, Catherine. I want to see a living monster too.”

The twins’ territory, Simmons Marquisate, was surrounded by the sea, so it was impossible to see monsters there. Even monster meat was rarely distributed to the market there, so the two were immensely curious about monsters.

“I aim to enlist in the Knight Order in the future. In recent years, knights are often tasked to hunt monsters. It won’t hurt to experience it first.”

“Marion-sama, I will assist you from the side. I have confidence in my knowledge about monsters since I’m from the borderland.”

“I-I-I-If Emma-sama goes, I will go with everyone too.”

Marion: for my future.

Emma: I’m a borderland person.

Francesca: I’ll go if everyone goes.

“Good, good. The extracurricular lesson this year is joined by girls and feels bright and colorful. Moreover, they even participate so actively in the… WAIT, this is obvious, but of course I can’t allow the girls to join, okay?!”

Although the king was uninhibited, he retorted firmly on that one point.

The academy male students took the Practical Skills for Hunters class and had acquired the minimum stamina needed to run away from monsters and self-defense training. However, young ladies didn’t have that, including basic physical strength.

“Emma, what are you thinking?! You understand how dangerous monsters are, right?!”

With his right hand raised to show his willingness to participate, Prince Edward’s face changed colors as he opposed Emma’s participation. The scar from the slime’s water gun attack still remained on Emma’s right cheek. It was so clearly visible that it was painful to look at.

“Uhh… Marion? I told you to be more aware of your position as a Duke’s daughter before we departed… um, didn’t I?”

With his right hand raised to show his willingness to participate, Marion’s older brother, Arthur, had a bitter expression, looking like he was troubled. The people in the mansion and his father, the Knight Order Commander, had let his younger sister do as she pleased for too much.

Properly speaking, she was already at the age where she could get married, but she was still dressing like a boy and devoting herself to sword practice. As she had become several times more dashing than clumsy boys, House Bell was at their wits’ end because they had a hard time finding a fiance for her.

“ “ “……” ” ”

(Gosh, so you two also raise your hands?!

Look at that! Aren’t His Highness and Arthur all pumped up and ready to go!?!)

Or so what the other students thought at the same time. Still, it wouldn’t be a laughing matter if they got dragged into it and forced to join too because they interjected at a poor timing, so they only watched the unfolding development quietly.
