And there was another change in my academy life.
That was, after the classes ended.
“Francesca-senpai!”
“Hello Souichi-kun. Thank you for coming to the class.”(fran)
“No, please don’t mind it.”
“No need to be so formal towards me.”(fran)
The class became noisy.
That was not because the classes had ended. It was because the [Brave] had come to their class.
The fact that I had travelled and taken a request along with Renji-sama had of course reached the ears of the [God Slayers] Souichi-kun, Yayoi-san and Aya-san.
They come to me instantly and asked about Renji-san.
“Hello to Yayoi-san as well.”(fran)
“Yes, hello Francesca-senpai.”
Souichi-kun and Yayoi-san. Souichi-kun wasn’t very tall and Yayoi-san was tall for a girl, so together they seemed like twins. As a man and a woman they had differences but if they were to wear the same clothes…….won’t it be difficult to recognise who’s who?
These two were brother and sister and really got along well. Since they had similar appearance, Souichi-san would look very similar to Yayoi-san if he grew out his hair.
I also had two elder sisters but I couldn’t really say that we got along well.
Or rather, we don’t really interfere with each other’s lives.
The eldest sister who’ll inherit the house, the middle sister who has business skills and so our parents have a lot of expectation from her, and then there’s me who has a meagre talent in magic.
After graduating, I’ll probably have to marry some noble or some famous merchant family.
Then, at least till that time, I decided to live as freely as possible so I came to the Magic Academy. I know that I have asked for a big favour from my family.
They didn’t say it out loud but I’m sure that they’d have wanted me to have a more safe school life.
After coming to this school, I have only been able to visit my home at the bare minimum.
Once in a month, a letter from my parents would come so I think I might be making them worry for me. Though the contents of the letters are always – come back soon or about marriage interviews etc.
Since it’s a bit awkward at my own home, I feel happy on seeing them both like this.
“Aya-san didn’t come together today?”(fran)
“Aya, she went to the guild today to put in a request……”(souichi)
“Aya-san did?”
Souichi-kun said that while inkling his head to a side, as if troubled.
Aya Fuyou-san. She is another one of the [God Slayers] in the school and is a famous magician with the title of [Grand Magus].
Honestly speaking, I have no idea why an amazing magician like Aya-san would attend school now.
It’s a fact that Aya-san is actually more skilled than even the teachers at this school. She is talented enough to even decipher sealed magic grimoires.
Even the teachers are worried about how to handle her, and it’s become a situation where they can’t say anything no matter what she does.
She herself isn’t a bad person but due to her abilities and titles, she ahs been unable to make friends of her own age.
Even with skills and experience, teachers would still look down upon youngsters, which is one of the bad aspects of this school. So even among the teachers, there were many who hate—-well, not that much but still there were many who didn’t really like her.
But it was a fact that she had the skills. And along with the title of [God Slayer], there was no one who could say anything to her.
Also, it was the royal family that recommended entering her into the school. There was no way anyone would cause any trouble with her.
But still, I couldn’t understand why the [Grand Magus] would go as far as to request something from the guild.
A magician of my level has no choice but to depend on someone but if it’s her, she could do anything, is what I think.
“Well, when we asked about Renji-niichan from you, Francesca-senpai, you said that you had requested him to take the request from the guild right?”(souichi)
“Eh, yes. That’s true.”(fran)
“So, Aya-chan has been putting up requests at the guild from yesterday so that she can catch Renji-niichan.”
“I see.”
Somehow, she’s really cute.
