After finishing the first day’s orientation class, I went back to my room in the dormitory.

When I entered my room, I was greeted by Marie with a big smile.

“I’m back, Marie.
I’m so tired!”

Upon entering my room, I plunged into my bed.

“Welcome back, milady.
Thank you for your hard work.
Would you like to take a bath before you eat?”

” Mmm.
I will take a bath after dinner.
Will you make me some tea?”

“Yes, of course.
You look tired, so I’ll make you some herbal tea.”

I stopped Marie as she took the teapot and started to go to the hot water room.

“Marie, can you just use your magic to make iced tea like you always do?”

” No.
I do not think so.
You look tired, miss.
Hot tea is good for such occasions.
Besides, the hot water room is a gathering place for information.”

I bet her main objective is to gather information.
The other three have also brought their own maids here.

After seeing Marie off to the hot water room, I thought to myself.

“Marie is getting very good at espionage.
She’s like a ninja.”

“I think she was born that way.”

Leon was the one who answered me.

“Hey, Leon.
Do you have any idea what magical warfare is like?”

“I don’t know.
I suppose it’s similar to a real battle.”

“Like when we fought the dragons?”

I remember the time we fought the dragon three years ago.

I nearly died that time.

The memory of Marion-san’s soul made me feel awkward with Leon and just remembering it made me sink into self-loathing.

” Fighting a dragon is rarer.
However, fighting against humans can be significantly more difficult than fighting monsters.”

“I know.”

I plopped face down on the bed.
I lay face down on the bed and stayed that way for a while until Marie brought me some herbal tea.

Meals are served in the cafeteria on the first floor of the dormitory. 

It’s buffet-style, so students can put whatever they want on their plates and eat at the tables set up for them.
I am seated at the top table.
Leon had been left in the room.
We can’t bring the Holy Beast to the cafeteria, of course.
For hygiene reasons, …….

In spite of the fact that this school has a rule of equality regardless of status, there is a hierarchy.
It’s called the school caste.

The only available table was the top seat.
It was most likely Adeline-sama’s doing.

“After completing the curriculum, I asked Tojurou-sensei for a hands-on demonstration.” 

　

Angel announced that she had fought with Tojurou-san, as per her previous declaration.

“How did it go?”

I was curious about the result, so I leaned forward.

“I was defeated.
A single sword blow was so heavy that my hand went numb.”

Angel sank in sullenness.

“Well, that’s understandable considering you were up against Tojurou.
It’s amazing that you were able to exchange a handful of blows.”

” But aren’t Chris and Rio Tojurou-sensei’s disciples? Haven’t you ever been able to beat him at least once?”

Chris and I exchanged glances.

” Well, you see.”

“I’ve never been able to beat him.”

Even against women and children, Tojourou-san was relentless.
He always gives it his all.

“I’ve never been able to beat him, even with two helpers.
Don’t sweat it, Angel.”

“There’s no one who can beat Tojurou at the moment.
……ah!”

Chris gave a little shout as if she had just remembered.
Speaking of which there is someone.
Kikuno-sama.

“What? Who is it? Siegfried-sama?”

Tria jumped at this.

There’s talk of an engagement between my brother and Tria between the two families.
She must be curious about it.

“He’s never been able to win either.
You see!　It’s Kikuno-sensei, the special teacher for class A who taught us today.”

Unfortunately, my brother has never beaten Tojurou-san before either.

” Oh, she’s from Hinoshima, right? I’ve seen her around.
She appeared to be a graceful woman, but she is stronger than Tojurou-sensei?”

Angel’s eyes gleamed.
Is she going to challenge Kikuno-sama to a fight this time?

“Kikuno-sensei is strong.
After all, she’s …….”

“What’s the matter with me?”

Behind us stood Kikuno-sama with a tray.

“Kikuno-sama …… sensei.
Didn’t you go back to the embassy?”

I nearly yelled ‘Kikuno-sama.’

“I’ll be staying here during orientation.”

“How is your work at the embassy going?”

“The people who are assisting me are excellent, so I should be fine.”

I’ve heard that line before.

“Do you mind if I sit with you?”

“Sure.”

I wondered if she was trying to keep me from saying too much.

Adeline-sama stole a glance at me and seemed to have confirmed that the person sitting with her was Kikuno-sama.
If it were any other student, she would have immediately come to complain.

I sincerely hope you don’t do anything to provoke Kikuno-sama too much.
She’s the former goddess of the earth in our country.
Hierarchies have nothing to do with her.

“So, what about me?”

“Kikuno-sensei, is that correct? I heard you’re stronger than Tojurou-sensei.”

Kikuno-sama brought up the topic again.
And Ange was the one who answered it.

“‘Are you a friend of Chris and Yurie’s? I’m Kujo Kasumi Kikuno.
You can call me Kikuno.”

“I apologize for the delay in greeting you.
My name is Angelica Ashbury.”

In the academy, you don’t need to give your family name.
You only need to say your first and last name.

“My name is Victoria Villiaberg.”

Tria introduced herself to Kikuno-sama in a faint voice.
As usual, she was not very comfortable with new acquaintances.

“You’re both S-class students, aren’t you? I will be in charge of the first lecture tomorrow.
I look forward to working with you.”

Will S class also receive that lecture today at the magic training center?

“Yes.
I’m looking forward to it.
So Kikuno-sensei, are you stronger than Tojurou-sensei?”

“The odds in a training match are fifty-fifty, but when it comes to actual combat, I imagine that Tojurou-sensei is stronger.”

Afterward, Kikuno-sama and Angel were excitedly discussing Tojurou-sensei.
Tria simply continued to exchange a few words.

Chris and I listened to Kikuno-sama and Angel’s conversation with a wry smile.
