161. Interlude (2)

“Hey, cliff. Are you really going to come out like this?”

“I? What?”

In the middle of training, Serena summoned Iriel, who was snug by her side.

Serena lifted her ax eye and glared at Iriel, whose bright red hair was twisting in front of her eyes.

“Why are you Sibi?”

“dispute?”

“yes. Why are you making fun of us from the side so that it gets in the way of our training? Isn’t it so hard to just go out of your way and not get involved?”

Iriel also raised his head and met Serena’s eyes.

She burst out laughing like it was ridiculous.

“under. speak straight flower garden. It’s not that I’m being sarcastic from the side, we’re also students in this class, right? But I only said one word because you guys are using the entire gym. If you’re saying I was being sarcastic with that… … . Um, shouldn’t we question your level?”

“That’s why I said from the beginning to set the order of using the gymnasium on a first-come, first-served basis.”

“Ah~. It’s first-come-first-served basis, and even though it’s been an hour since I was supposed to write it, I still haven’t finished training, so I have to wait? Why do we have to follow your rules? flower garden. Aren’t you the instructor?”

“Even so, 10 minutes… … !”

“I think you’re misunderstanding something, but whether it’s 10 minutes or an hour, it’s the same.”

Serena and Iriel glared at each other, biting their lips.

According to her original personality, Serena would have tolerated it because she didn’t want to scratch it and make a boil.

In the case of Iriel, it was a trivial incident that he wouldn’t have cared about.

However, now each of them has their own followers.

Even such a trivial incident turned into a battle of pride between Joheiden and Justia.

A spark flew between the two eyes.

“… … If you keep coming out like this, I have an idea.”

“yes? What? tell me tell me I’m really curious what that idea is.”

“Get out of my house.”

“!”

In the end, the weapon that Serena pulled out was the right of the landlord.

It wouldn’t have been if it was when Zeke was there, but now that Serena was here without Zeke, Iriel was at a loss for what to say.

ugh

A truly effective number.

“Hmm, it looks like neither of you want to fight right now… … . Why are you fighting like that?”

At that moment, a voice intervened between the two.

“Actually, I don’t even hate it.”

“Who doesn’t hate it!”

“Who doesn’t hate it!”

The one who dares to speak carelessly about the long-standing feud between Joheiden and Justia.

I just couldn’t get past the words.

Serena and Iriel turned their heads to confirm the owner of the voice.

The two eyes widened as they checked their faces.

““… … Soy Spoon… … ?””

I’m still not completely back to being myself.

Translucent brown hair.

Yellow and pink eyes flicker as if expressing happiness.

Soi looked at the two and smiled.

“look. they both say the same thing Even though we say we hate each other, we love each other more than anyone… … ?”

profit.

“Now, wait… … . Who likes cliffs… … . No, more than that, what the hell happened to it now… … . That you came!”

As Serena tried to argue her words, she realized one thing.

At her words, Soi lightly nodded.

“Yeah, right. I’m here.”

“I am here! Serena!”

“Yes… … ?”

Serena looked back.

There is a middle-aged man with his arms wide open and a big smile.

He saw his father, the Duke of Joheiden.

And next to him is Sedan Joheiden, the second older brother.

He, too, had the same face as his father’s, with his arms outstretched.

“Serena!! ruler!!!”

The two of them spread their arms wide, expecting Serena to embrace them.

Serena just tilted her head with a complicated and subtle expression.

“Oh, Father? Brother… … ? But where is Instructor Zeke… … .”

The sudden appearance of his father and older brother was surprising, but more important than that was Zeke’s whereabouts.

The position of the father and son who met their daughter and sister again after crossing the threshold of death, and Serena, who went to the academy as usual.

Yes, I know there will be differences of opinion, but… … !

“… … They say raising a daughter is useless… … .”

“… … I hate Zeke Kleiman. father… … .”

He looked at her with eyes full of betrayal, but Serena asked again if they couldn’t see their expressions.

“Instructor came with you too!? Where are you now?”

““… … .””

Serena continues to search for Siegman.

The Duke of Joheiden and Sedan hardened like stone.

Even at the moment when his life was at stake, the tears that did not come out welled up.

On the other hand, Iriel was feeling envy inside as he saw the friendly Joheiden family.

Unlike her family, Serena’s parents participated as spectators in the last midterm evaluation, Dalian.

However, the only one who came to watch his match was Hades.

‘No, even if I had to come here, it would have been rather inconvenient.’

Iriel thought to himself that his family would come to see him, then shook his head.

“I envy you?”

Soyi, who was watching Serena’s family from the side, asked.

“… … Yes?”

For a moment, Iriel, thinking that he couldn’t manage his expression, stiffened his face and replied.

“no. My father or aunt… … . because you are busy it’s okay.”

To be honest, seeing her father and aunt come to her only burdens her. It wasn’t that kind of flirtatious relationship.

“lie.”

“yes… … ?”

“Um… … . Honestly, did I do something I couldn’t… … . I didn’t have the heart to do it, but I think I did well… … .”

Soi smiles and speaks.

Iriel’s eyebrows narrowed.

“What do you mean now… … .”

at that time.

“Iriel Justia.”

A thick, low-pitched voice came from behind.

It feels like your hair is standing on end.

Iriel slowly looked away.

“… … Oh, father, go… … mom… … ?”

My heart tightened at the unexpected encounter.

My heart started beating fast and I was short of breath.

Rather than being happy to see them, I was worried about what else they would point out to me.

‘What if I say something about eating and sleeping at Serena’s house… … ? If you trip over Zeke, what else should you answer… … .’

Several assumptions were jumbled in my head.

however.

“I missed you.”

By no means, that one word he thought he would hear from his father turned his head white.

The feeling of being alone in this world with you and your father.

“… … Yeah?”

Turbuck.

Turbuck.

Duke Justia approached him with wide steps.

Iriel involuntarily took a backward step and stood tall. Stopped.

Obviously, that red hair and that hard-looking chin. brawny body. his father is right

That’s right… … . Aren’t you looking at yourself with eyes that you couldn’t normally see at all?

That awkward sense of distance caught Iriel’s ankle.

Duke Justia came right in front of me.

Iriel reflexively lowered his eyes at the gaze staring at him.

“Raise your head.”

“Yes Yes… … . sorry, sorry… … .”

Iriel answered in a crawling voice.

“Why don’t you apologize… … ?”

“… … Yeah?”

“Tell me again. Iriel. my daughter I missed you.”

thump

“… … uh, uh… … ?”

Duke Justia hugged Iriel tightly.

I feel my father’s arms for the first time.

Iriel couldn’t adapt at all to his father who suddenly changed.

* * *

Serena and Iriel decided to visit their families, so the first thing Zeke went to was Yuri Gilbert.

“Oh, come… … .”

Yuri Gilbert tried to embrace Zeke as soon as he saw him, but it was Rosnante who was quicker than that.

“Instructor Zeke Kleiman!!!”

At the sudden rushing Rosnante, Zeke reflexively ducked and hit the back of the head with his hand.

Whiik-

‘her. Did you avoid it?’

However, Rosnante managed to dodge by lowering his head right away.

Zeke looked at Rosnante with a slightly surprised face, but as if his purpose was to grab his feet from the beginning, Rosnante grabbed Zeke’s feet and stretched.

“Please, help me!!!”

“yes… … ?”

“Please help me. So that I can use that mana… … . Can you lend me some mana stones!? please. I will definitely pay you back!!”

In Rosnante’s eyes, Zeke’s appearance seemed like a savior had descended.

The lies are snowballing now, and sparring may not be avoided sooner or later.

However, Rosnante had the confidence to lose terribly against anyone.

Then, it is only natural that his followers, whom he had worked so hard to gather, would leave again.

At such times, Zeke’s appearance was like a ray of light.

So, as soon as Rosnante saw Zeke, he clung to him and begged for help.

“Hey, save me! Instructor Zeke Kleiman!”

“Let’s talk about this for now.”

“I won’t let go until you hear it!!!”

“Let go. Oh little.”
