The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

204. Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [1]

January 8th.

After successfully overcoming a tumultuous day, I was heading to Thousand Blade Academy with Ria in the morning breeze of cold air.

「It’s pretty cold… Today’s lowest temperature is below zero degrees, right?」

「That’s right. So Allen must eat a lot more and be careful not to catch a cold, okay?」

Ria said, peering closer to my face.

「Ahaha… I-I’ll try my best.」

For some reason, she seems to think of me as a light eater.

(But in reality, Ria is just a glutton.)

But I can’t say that to a teenage girl.

I know those subjects are delicate.

(For the time being, I’ll try my best not to worry Ria.)

We live together, so we can’t worry our partners too much.

Let’s increase the amount I eat little by little from today, and gradually make the stomach bigger.

After that, we entered the main academy building, went straight through the long hallway, and opened the door of Year 1 Class A.

And then,

「Oh, Allen, Ria-san! Are both of you all right?」

「I was surprised because you left so suddenly yesterday.」

「Well, at any rate, you seem to be doing good and that’s what’s most important. But don’t overdo it, okay?」

Everyone in the class asked about our health.

(Hmm… I see. That’s what it is.)

As far as I can understand from their worries, it seems they’re under the impression that we left early yesterday because of poor health.

Leia-sensei most probably spread it around.

Ria and I understood it instantly, exchanged glances, and nodded to each other.

「Well, uh… I took a whole day to rest, so I’m all right now. Sorry to worry everyone.」

「Allen and I are doing well now, so don’t worry anymore. Thank you.」

We decided to lie just to reassure everyone, and rounded up the conversation.

Then, we put our bags in our seats and placed the textbooks onto the desks.

(But judging from everyone’s reaction… As expected, it seems that no one knows about yesterday’s incident.)

In spite of such a major incident, the newspaper and the radio reported nothing at all.

(Perhaps Tenshi-sama and Rodis-san pulled strings to control the information.)

After that, Rose, who had artistic bed hair as usual, finally came to class. And as the three of us were having a chat as usual, the front door opened vigorously.

「Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Let’s start the morning homeroom!」

Leia-sensei, who appeared to be in high spirits, gave a brief announcement.

Then, we started the morning class and did a thorough muscle and stamina training using the schoolyard.

Then, it was lunch break.

When we were about to attend the『Lunch Party』… No, I mean the student council regular meeting,

『Year 1 Class A – Allen Rodore-kun, Ria Vesteria-san. Rose Valencia-san, please come to the Director’s office as soon as possible. I repeat. Year 1 Class A–』

The in-house broadcast rang out, and we three were summoned.

「The director’s office means that… Leia is calling. What is it about I wonder?」

「Yesterday’s incident…? No, then, the president and the others should also be summoned…」

Ria and Rose tilted their heads and voiced their thoughts.

(The fact that we three were summoned, especially right after yesterday… It’s most likely about that incident.)

However, I do not understand why only the three of us were summoned as Rose said.

「Well… For now, let’s go to the director’s office.」.

When I said so,

「Yes, that’s right.」

「It won’t help even if we think about it here. Let’s go there right away.」

The two nodded, and we put our lunch boxes in the bag, and headed to the director’s office.

We navigated through the long hallways and came before the director’s office.

As usual, on behalf of us three, I knocked on the black-lacquered door.

「Please Enter.」

The beautiful voice of a woman replied.

「「「……? 」」」

We looked at each other at the same time.

It was obviously not Leia-sensei’s voice right now.

It seems that there are some other people in the director’s office.

「E-Excuse me.」

A little nervously, I pushed open the door slowly, and there sat–

「Y-You are…!?」

「It’s been a while, Allen-sama.」

The sovereign of Ringuard Imperial Kingdom, Tenshi-sama.
