157 157.School Festival and International Students




 A few months into my life as a lecturer, I was supposed to have infiltrated as an escort for Iris Reinfell, the daughter of the Reinfell family, one of the four major noble families, but I found myself focusing more on my life here.
 Of course, following the incident involving the Shadow Apostle, which involved the neighboring country of Iris' close friend and family member, Aria Notoria, I met Luino Tomura, who was related to my previous life, in the seaside town of Lelay.
 And finally, I'm facing the issue of the candidate for the next "king" who is approaching this country.
 Like Iris, the Rahmberg family is one of the four major noble families. The Kuro Wolf Knights are still listening to her daughter, Cashel Rahmberg, as an important witness.
 However, it was not to question her for betraying the country, but rather to protect her.
 Cashel, like Iris, was also in danger of being killed.
 He has not been able to keep in touch with Remyll, the leader of the group.
 The main reason for this is that someone attempted to assassinate Haylon Stiletto, the leader of the Knights of the Holy Armor, who are in charge of guarding the west side of the city.
 Haylon survived, but he is still unconscious, and we don't know who attacked him.
 The location of his hospitalization has also been kept secret.
 However, the Knights of the Holy Armor are the knights in charge of the defense line against the Falmea Empire, and the absence of a knight commander would be too big a problem.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
 That's why Remyll is taking on the job as an actual deputy.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you can do to help. You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
 In this situation, I should brace myself as a knight and think about what to do next.

I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not, but I'm sure you've heard of it.

 I listened to the words of a female student standing in front of the blackboard.
 The school festival is one of the biggest events in the school, not only in FIORUM Academy.
 The purpose of the festival is to support the activities of the students so that they can go out into the world, but from what I've heard, it's just a simple festival.
 For example, each class performs a play, dances to music, sets up a store, etc. ...... Anyway, it is a day for each class to put on a show and have fun.
 Although the event will not be held until a little later, discussions start early because there are preparations to be made in advance.
 In my class, there were a lot of opinions about what we should do.

"Let's have a stall! Yakitori!
"What are you talking about? It has to be a play! A play is the best thing we can do in this class!
No, we'll have an ice cream truck.
"Why shaved ice ......?

 I couldn't help but chuckle.
 I decided to leave it to the initiative of the students, but I have very little experience participating in festivals, let alone school festivals. If anything, I would say that they are better qualified to think.
 The final decision may be made by a majority vote, but before that, the students' opinions are being added to the blackboard.
 The girl in charge of writing seemed a little dizzy, and I felt sorry for her.
 In the midst of all of this, Iris and Aria were as calm as ever compared to the other students.
 After the incident in the seaside town, the gap between them and their classmates has gradually faded, and now they can be seen talking with other children.
 This is also the case with Aria, but it still doesn't change the fact that the two of them are always together.
 However, Iris has been acting a little strange lately.
 It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything that might help you. ...... I don't think I've done anything wrong, but...
 I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.
 On the other hand, Aria, who is sitting next to her, is giving me a strong look - I honestly don't know what her intentions are.
 To be honest, Iris may not be interested in the school festival at the moment. The engagement talk was broken off, but I'm sure Iris herself is thinking about the future.
 Still, the two of them are finally getting along with their classmates, but there is one more person who has come to join them. Specifically, there is a "student" who will be coming to my class tomorrow.
 The name of this student is...

"Maid cafe.
"That's it!
Hey, boys, shut up ......! --Who are you? Who are you?

 The female student who was facilitating the event shouted in surprise.
 It's a good idea to take a look at the actual information on the web. The ...... boys, upon hearing the declaration, agreed with great vigor.
 The only thing that upsets me is seeing a girl I don't recognize in the classroom.
 One of them was Iris.

"You're .......
"Huh, it's been a while. I've been taking another tour of the school today, and I noticed that the class I'll be attending tomorrow is about to decide on something interesting. If I had known, I would have started school today.

 With a grin, the girl in the military uniform, Enna Baudel, says.
 It seems that she is alone now, and her subordinate, Mercier, who is always with her, is not there.
 Aria may have noticed this, but unlike her classmates, she didn't show any signs of surprise.
 She stood in front of the chalkboard, her shoes clacking.

I'd like to introduce myself first. My name is Ena Baudel, and I'm a foreign student from the Falmer Empire. As you can see, I usually work as a soldier. But while I'm here, I'm going to act as one of the students of the school. Take care of everyone.

 Hearing Aena's declaration, the students seemed to be in a daze.
 The story of the foreign student coming to the school would be new to them, but her name was more of a problem.

"Bodol ......? I believe Bodle is .......
Wasn't the Imperial Marshal Bodle?
"Oh, so you're the princess of the empire ......?

 I let out a small sigh and clap my hands lightly.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm sure there's a lot of things you're wondering, but Aena will be joining our class tomorrow. I never thought I'd be introducing myself like this, but please get to know each other tomorrow.


"Haha, you're funny, Alta. I'm sure you'll find it easy to get along with your classmates with my charisma, even if you don't tell them.

 I think it's great that you're using your charisma to help you get along, but I'm going to stand in front of Aena and keep talking.

"Aena, as of tomorrow, you will be a student here. I'm not going to give you any special treatment, and I don't think you want that either. I'm going to treat you as an instructor, so can you please start by calling me 'sir'?
You can call me Alta, right?
Mr. Minei, I shouldn't have said that at this time.

 I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. And then.

I don't like 'Alta-kun'. I'll just call you Mr. Alta for now.
"...... Well, that's okay. And please wear your school uniform tomorrow, okay?
School uniform: ......

 Hearing my words, Aena glanced over to a girl standing nearby.
 I'm sure you'll agree that this is a great idea.

I don't think I look good in this uniform.

 I don't think this uniform suits me.

"Haha, that's not the point. Anyway, I don't plan to attend any classes today, so I'd better go to .......
"Yeah, right. Well, sorry for the interruption. I'll see you tomorrow.

 With that, Aena left the classroom.
 I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with that. ...... I hope we can be friends tomorrow.
 In the silence of the classroom, Aria, who had not said a word until now, suddenly raised her hand and opened her mouth.

I vote for a maid cafe. I want Iris to wear a maid's uniform.
"......? I don't know why I'm doing this.
Yes, that's right. I'm not sure what to make of that. A maid cafe ...... with maids, how wonderful!
"Yes, that's the only way!

 "Yes, that's the only way!" Starting with Aria's words, the boys began to agree with her one after another.
 However, some of the girls have a different idea of what they want to do, such as a play. They voiced their opposition.

"You're going to wear a maid's uniform too, right?
"Oh, me? I don't think it would be interesting for me to wear one. ......

 I smiled again and replied, but all of the students' eyes focused on me.
 I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had it.
