At the same time as the two blades were brought down.

　A red and black light gushed out.

　It is a very good idea to have a good time.

"Hi-hi-gee yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

　With a scream, the three heads stopped moving.


　The giant body wobbled.


　The three-headed behemoth, which had lost its will to support itself, collapsed to the ground.
　There was no regeneration of the heads--no regeneration.
　Steamy smoke rises from the three-headed body.
　The dissolution has begun.
　The signs of life that had filled the body a moment ago can no longer be felt.
　Nor is there any sign of will.

　We've done it.

　Before the three-headed body completely sinks to the floor, I slash the orc that was looking up at me around me.

''Bugo!
Bogey?

　Along with fresh blood, the foul scream of the orc rises.
　I quickly turn my body around, and with the huge eight-armed body behind me as it falls down--


　Acceleration.


　The orc was about to throw a spear at Currier-san, who was struggling from afar.
　Behind it, I moved.

　Through the gaps in the crowd of orcs, I could see Cecily-san fighting desperately despite her aching leg.

''Hey,''
"Bougougou?

　The moment he turned around, the great sword of the forbidden curse had already pierced through the heart of that orc.

''Bu, gosh...?　

　There was a blood-curdling scream.
　The orcs that were attacking Currier-san and the others looked back at us.

　The [Supply] from the three heads is no more.

　Behind me, something that looks like steam rising from the dissolving three-headed bodies is rising like wolf smoke in the background.

''You're the only ones left in this room now... if you still intend to attack Currier-san and Cecily-san like this--''

　I reasserted my four weapons deadly and said.


'Let's all kill each other and f*ck each other.'


　　　　　*


　For the first time in a long time, the sky was blue with thick drifting clouds.


　The air was clear and crisp.
　The leaves of the trees were rustling in the gentle breeze.
　The smell was different.
　Everything I was feeling at this moment was a calming sensation.

'You're back.

　We are in an iron cage now.

　Of course, this is not a cage prepared by the orcs.

　It is this place in the plaza in front of the entrance of the Holy Ruins that is sent by the return device of the Holy Ruins for transfer.

　The reason for the iron cage is because the academy set it up so that the demons that are occasionally transported with the attack team would not escape.

''For now........we've accomplished the capture of the lowest level, right?

　Lowering the backpack to the ground once, Currier-san asked.

　The hierarchy where the forbidden spellbook was located was not exactly connected to the school's Holy Ruins.

　It was possible that it was a hierarchy of ruins that dived through a different entrance.
　So.

I think this academy's Holy Ruins are a complete conquest.

　Despite the unexpected appearance of the three-headed demon, we still managed to capture the lowest level.

''Cecily-san has now accomplished one of her objectives.

　I ask Cecily, who is piggybacking on my back.
　No answer.
　She doesn't seem to be asleep, though.

"Cecily?
I'm sorry for slowing you down at the end.
What are you talking about?

　He really does care about this kind of thing, doesn't he?
　I think he's a sensitive person.
　I don't dislike that part of him, though.

''Especially the last three-headed one, Cecily-san was able to defeat it because she remembered the record of the three-headed dragon, right?

　I lightly lift her thighs and carry her back.

''Fighting together isn't about wielding a sword or using a magic formula... I feel like Cecily-san has reminded me of that during this attack on the Holy Ruins.

　Curie-san pulled out a conspicuously large crystal from his bag.

The reason I was able to obtain this crystal is because Cecily knew how to defeat the three-headed man. With this, the next time we need funds for something, we'll have the money ready to go.

　Cecily squeezed the two arms around my neck as she hugged me.

'Oh no,'
What?


I almost indulged myself in their kindness.


　The way he said it sounded so, so embarrassed.
　I chuckle.

'That's why your self-esteem is so low these days, Cecily.
...do you want to tweak my breasts again?
I won't!　Really, I'm sorry about that!

　

　Especially my thighs and how smooth and soft they are compared to the hardness of my arms.

''Hmph.''

　Miss Cecily smiled at me in a natural way.
　Then, with her face nuzzled into my neck, she said happily.

'I love you two,'

　As we were doing so, the candidates who were nearby noticed our presence.
　The news of our return seems to have spread throughout the school immediately.
　By the time we returned to the Holy Ruins Hall to report back, the area near the hall was filled with candidates.

　Currier-san and Cecily-san's bangles were colorless and transparent.
　However, only my bracelets had a slight reddish tinge to them.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.
　But my bracelet is a reddish translucent color.
　It's probably because I went further down the lowest level.

　Is the 50th level the end of the line and that's where the colorlessness ends?

　Maybe in the ruins that have a hierarchy after the 50th level, the colorlessness of the ruins will increase from transparent to red.
　By the way, the color of my bracelet was later properly recognized as proof of reaching the lowest level.


　Anyway, this is how we completely conquered the Holy Ruins of St. Renowthred Academy.


　　　　　


　A few days had passed since they had finished capturing the Holy Ruins of the school.

　The three members of the attacking team that had set the record for the highest level of achievement were noisy for a while, but after a few days, their enthusiasm seemed to have easily calmed down.

　To be honest, I'm grateful for the usual.

　One day after school, Makina-san called me to visit the headmaster's office, and I was getting back to my normal routine.

　When I stepped off the headmaster's desk, Makina-san walked to the side of the room with her tote-tete.

''I'll make you some tea now,''

　There is a tea brewing set on a low shelf.
　Huh?
　I don't think they had any until now....

　When I asked her about it, she told me that she's been obsessed with 《incense tea》, including teacups, lately.

　Well, in her case, if she just wanted to drink tea, she should be able to ask Mia-san to brew it for her.
　In short, for Makina-san right now, it's worthwhile for her to brew it herself.

　Makina-san pours the tea into an elegantly decorated cup with a serious face like a craftsman.

Of course, she can't say it out loud, but it makes me smile to see her as a child trying her best to help her parents.
I'm being very outspoken.

　He stared at me as hard as he could.

"S-Sorry.

　I apologize and shrug.
　I've done it again........
　After I finished brewing tea for two, Makina-san placed a cup on the table in front of me waiting on the sofa.

'It's a tea made from avana leaves. I hope you like it.
Thank you.

　In short, a cup of tea.
　Throbbing.
　Yes, it smells good.

Fufu....then, I'll have it, okay?

　Now, how does it taste?

Very, very...

　Yeah.
　It's a little hot, but it's good.

It's good.
Well, that's good.

　Makina-san, with a satisfied face, sat down on the sofa facing me.

''Come to think of it, I'm late in saying it properly, but congratulations on your complete capture of the Holy Ruins. Well, I wonder if you and those two won't be so surprised?
''It wasn't that easy to capture it. It wasn't such a sweet place that you could capture it just by having the ability to fight.

　Also, there's something else I haven't told the Holy Ruins Hall and the instructors yet.
　It's about the area below the lowest level of the example.
　However, I was going to report it to Makina-san.

''I see.......So you see that's the reason for the redness that was smeared on your bracelet?''
Yeah.
"Even lower levels not connected to the ruins of the academy.......and even the same emblem on the underground altar in the clock tower, a new forbidden spellbook? In addition, an unknown demon spawning a demon that appeared from beyond the walls and a new discovery is on the horizon.
Considering the nature of the Holy Ruins the walls of the lowest level of the room I broke down should have been repaired by now. Perhaps even the hole that led down.

　Makina-san leans back and crosses her arms thoughtfully.

''Considering the flurry of different species, it doesn't sound like it would be a difficult task for an average candidate to handle.
'I believe Cecily-san has reported that we need some kind of warning about the danger of orcs roosting in the lowest levels.

　If the candidates who had reached the fifty levels were to be caught alive, they could end up being the same as the people in that prison.

　I might end up in such a way that I would be better off dead.
　I felt like that one incident reminded me of the brutality and danger of demons.

''I'm also considering the idea of limiting access to the lowest level where there are orc species. In any case, if you get to the forty-nineth level, your evaluation score as a candidate is more than enough.
We don't know if the three-headed man is back in business.

　By the way, Cecily, who suggested a way to beat the three heads, said that her injured leg is recovering well.

　She has recently been motivated to compile information on the hierarchy of the unrecorded holy ruins.

　Recording and releasing the unknown hierarchy information is an act that benefits other candidates.
　So I've heard that it's basically just candidates about to graduate and leave their materials as a kind gesture.

　However, Cecily said that she wanted to compile the records in order to let people know about the holy ruins and the danger of demons.

　Well, considering the case of the orc dwelling house, it's understandable that I won't be in the mood to talk about competition or anything like that.

''And well now that you've conquered the Holy Ruins, do you have any kind of goals for the future?''
''My next goal is still the Special Class Holy Ruins. It's still unknown whether they'll approve me to dive from here after discussing it with the knights. Even if they do, there is also the problem of what to do with the attack team for the Special Class Holy Ruins.

　The funds seem to be manageable for the time being since I have the crystals I got from the last Holy Ruins attack.

　However, there are a few other things to consider.
　Who should I form an attack team with?
　Should I ask for help from the Holy Tree Knights?

　The capture of the Special Class Holy Ruins has nothing to do with school classes.
　Therefore, even if you are going to form an attack team, it's still a bit difficult to invite candidates to join.
　I'll have to think about what to do about that as well.

　Makina-san, who was looking at me as I was pondering, said while holding a cup in her hand.

''Actually, I received a letter from Shana the other day, right?''

　Shanna?
　Why was she mentioned here?

They say they think there might be a forbidden spellbook in the Ruvel Argan.
The Book of Curses--Hey, is this true?

　Makina took a sip of her tea and then replied.

''I thought it might be time to verify its authenticity... with your own eyes. Well, since only you can read the spellbook, even if it was really there, we wouldn't be able to verify its authenticity unless you went there in the first place.''

　Putting down her cup, Makina-san turned into the face of the 《Schoolmaster》.

''You already know the story of Siegbert Gil'es and Hyrgis Emeralda's exchange student, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Naturally, we discussed the same system with the Ruvel Argan side during the Feast of the Holy War.

　No, no.

What do you think?

　Makina-san smiles with a face that says, "As you can imagine.


''Are you and Currier both willing to go to Ruvel Argan for a while as exchange students?
