Classes are going on, and it’s been about two weeks since I spent time training, dungeons, and studying at the same time.

“It’s hot.”

The weather has warmed up enough to be felt now.

It’s already hot enough to compare with midsummer.

It is natural for people to think that this kind of abnormality is strange.

You can feel it getting hotter in real time, but who wouldn’t doubt it?

Most people inside ＜Skientia＞ probably noticed this change.

And in all likelihood, you have a guess as to the cause.

That would be too… … .

“Come on, Spina. This is the ice cream I bought when I went to Neris Kingdom. Is this still cool and delicious?”

“Yeah, thank you. sister.”

It was because I could see a haze rising from around Spina. As far as you can see, the space is distorted by the heat.

Anyone passing by and spotting her must have felt it.

A heat that cannot be expressed in words.

“It’s delicious, sister. I like this.”

“yes? hahahaha, good luck Spina. Tell me what you want to eat or what you want to have. I will save you!”

But who can say?

Tia, who always had a displeased expression, was smiling brightly like that. Even Spina, unlike Tia, is a kind and pure child.

There is no one in ＜Skientia＞ who can break the warm atmosphere between the two.

because it’s all over

Of course, that doesn’t mean that Tia killed him himself. It is said that most of those harsh people were filtered out before they even entered ＜Skientia＞.

Or get to know the world through personality education later.

“And above all, it must still be manageable.”

still kind of hot. It’s not like I’m going to die, so it’s bearable.

Of course, there are those who can’t stand it.

“it’s okay?”

“Aww.”

There is a white sheep hanging down in the seat next to me as if it is melting.

With no time to protest or anything, I was retired faster than anyone else.

Well, he’s a guy who always takes heat well, so it must be hard to bear.

Even this heat cannot be subdued by magic or witchcraft.

There’s no way you can use the dragon’s mana with intermediate or advanced magic.

However, the range is a problem to smash the highest level magic at once.

In the first place, there is a point that I don’t know if it will work, and I don’t know how to use it.

“I can’t move.”

“I have to go back to the dormitory, though.”

“I don’t want to wake up… … . I’m sorry, take me to the dormitory.”

“… … .”

It’s not difficult to lift. How much my physical strength has increased through repeated martial arts training, but would that be difficult?

However, there is a problem when carrying a white sheep. Even though I know it shouldn’t, my eyes naturally look down.

You can see her big and big heart. It’s like there’s a magnet in your eye.

“Be silly~.”

“I go first.”

“Hey, don’t be pouting.”

Yang Baek turned and clung to me as I was about to leave the classroom, then started whining.

To be honest, I was annoyed because of the heat and a lot of things to think about.

However, it is forgivable because I can feel Baekyang’s broad mind through my back.

“Is it okay if I just take you to the dorm? It’s hot, so let’s go quickly.”

“Umm, maybe you don’t want to go quickly when you see it start?”

“under! Do you think that kind of provocation would work no matter how much I look at it?”

“That’s something you don’t know.”

* * *

When he started moving with her on his back, Baekyang was right.

The desire to solve troublesome things quickly disappeared.

It’s a little bit like that, but I want to take Baekyang home like this.

It’s not that I’ve been touched by her broad mind now. I felt that a lot when I was already in the federation.

“Are you cool?”

“Yes?”

Baekyang was cool.

Come to think of it, the reason she gets hot is because she herself is a goblin who handles snow and ice.

The body temperature itself is lower than that of humans, so it is difficult to tolerate the heat.

It’s like a water balloon full of water.

“are you okay? Do you think it will be hotter if you stick with me?”

“Ah, it’s nice just being together. What.”

Baekyang whispered in my ear and giggled. This son of a bitch appeals to himself like this only when he has a chance.

If it’s meant to shake my mind, it’s a fairly effective attack method.

Still, you can’t make a hasty decision as long as you put your relationship with the other two on hold.

It’s because you’re a bastard that you look away while asking to wait.

But to be honest, even now, I feel like an asshole.

“I really like this one too. … … For now. But at a later date, Oz-sama will also remember this moment, right?”

“It’s a scary imprinting effect.”

“Does it seem to have some effect?”

“Very much, to be honest.”

Mainly, I can’t forget various tactile sensations. Still, I won’t say it because I’ll get angry if I say this, but… … .

“Hold on a little longer. I’ll fix it quickly.”

“Are you planning on giving the principal a classy admonition as usual?”

“A discipline? Advice.”

“If you think about Oz-sama’s personality… … . I have no intention of marrying a corpse, so you must come back alive?”

“… … .”

Don’t say that because you’re anxious.

* * *

He told me to remove the horns at once, so I escorted Baek Yang to the dormitory and immediately went to the head of the academy.

“Academy head. Are you okay with a minute? I have something to tell you.”

“What, what else? Why are you so anxious not to bother me? Be honest. what did you get into? I’ll forgive you, so don’t do that in the future?”

“The accident is not what I am doing. Head of the academy.”

“Then Noah hit? that’s your responsibility Don’t bother.”

Apparently, he now remembers Eleanor’s name.

Of course, that doesn’t matter now.

“Whoa, whoa, go away.”

It seems that I have become extremely lazy in the time I haven’t seen you for a while. No, rather than being indolent, should I say that I’m putting all my attention on Spina?

I thought it lightly, but surprisingly, I persuade Tia, but it looks like I’m going to have a hard time. It’s not like I’m going to listen to the words at all.

“Academy head. Didn’t you promise me Right now, all of Skientia is sleeping in the heat… … .”

“Whoa, Oz. Think carefully? Here is our cute Spina.”

Before I can finish my words, Tia panics and stops me.

In the meantime, it’s a bonus to show off the spinner with both hands with twinkling eyes.

Both of them look cute just by looking at them.

One is a monster that has been living for hundreds of years.

“hi.”

“… … It’s a pretty outfit. Did the headmaster buy it for you?”

“Yeah, my sister bought it for me.”

“It suits you well.”

I don’t want to bully my child just because I am.

Anyway, just being close to it makes me feel the heat enough to suffocate.

Is this heat not cooling down and spreading to ＜Skientia＞, no, throughout the empire?

In the past, it might really ripen as a human being. The status of a dragon is not false, even if it is young.

“The head of the school.”

“Spina, would you like to hang out for a while? I’ll be back in five minutes.”

“Are you going to work?”

“yes.”

“Good idea. Come on, sister.”

“Uh, go, thank you?”

Spina started stroking Tia’s hair as if she was proud of being told that she was working.

It seems that the fact that Tia is working is itself proud, probably because she has been indolent for a long time.

It can’t be a very funny sight.

“What are you laughing at?”

“Hmm, no. It’s just that Miss Spina is so cute that it made me smile on my own… … Big hum… … .”

No, honestly, isn’t it funny? The world’s strongest being is now being treated like a child.

Outwardly, that’s natural, but when I think about my usual behavior, I can’t help but laugh.

“Stop laughing and talk.”

“Principal, don’t you remember what I said before?”

“… … It’ll get better after a while. Don’t make a fuss.”

“It looks like the Empire will become a desert after a little while.”

If that’s really the case, then there’s nothing strange about it.

In the original work, Eleanor showed a group of people of all kinds of ugliness, including a big party, so Tia got tired of it, but not now.

If I can’t convince you here, the empire could be in danger.

“It’s not very hot, what?”

“It must be because the head of the academy is familiar with fire. Right now, the white sheep is half dead.”

“Who is the white sheep?”

“This is the goblin that was with me.”

Tia tilted her head at my name and wanted to think about it, but then shouted as if she had remembered.

“ah! Your third girlfriend?”

“We are not in that relationship yet.”

“yet… … ? Look at this shameless bastard Didn’t you say I’d die if I played Arietta?”

“… … I’m trying.”

“Does a hard-working guy have such impure relationships with multiple women?”

ah i don’t know

I’m just going to be shameless now.

Still, nothing more than this. If I go any further than this, I’m really going to get stabbed.

I swear Don’t swear by Mana.

“Anyway, wouldn’t it be nice to meet an old friend at this time?”

“An old friend?”

“Sea dragon, Master Harbart.”

“… … Why is that bastard your friend?”

Tia’s pupils are torn vertically.

It’s like I’ve touched the yoke again. Well, since they said they weren’t on good terms, that’s understandable.

Still, I wish they would reconcile slowly. Don’t you know now that there was a misunderstanding between each other?

“Do you think this will be resolved by meeting that bastard? What did I not even do? This is a matter of instinct. What someone can teach you is something you have to realize yourself.”

“I guess so.”

That is just a characteristic that dragons already possess. What is natural for her may not be for others.

And sometimes you can’t explain it. How would you teach them how to breathe?

Spina is now in such a situation. You need time to realize yourself naturally.

but… … .

“Still, if it’s Harbart-nim, wouldn’t it be possible to buy the necessary time until you get used to it?”

You need a way to survive that time. Because the human body is fragile.

If Tia is familiar with flame, Harbart is familiar with cold.

Aren’t we living in the ＜Sea of Boundaries＞? The Sea of Boundaries is the coldest place in the world.

A human’s whole body freezes in one second just by touching a finger.

Humans, who are warm-blooded animals with the characteristic of trying to keep their body temperature constant, can do that just by touching it.

A being who can live in such a hellish place in this world must be a being who is familiar with the cold.

To be honest, even if I came to ＜Skientia＞ for a short time and shed mana, the current situation would be sorted out right away.

“How can you be sure of that? More than that, how can I trust that son of a bitch? He is the child Spina said could not be born. You are the child I told you to give up.”

“Didn’t you say it was for the head of the academy? And the head of the academy probably doesn’t know that even I can guess?”

Jinseon said that all the other dragons knew the conditions for Spina to be born.

Still, it was probably for Tia’s sake that she said that.

Rather than saying it straight away and giving Tia the choice of killing her own people or giving up, she would rather have spoken harsh words and put off the situation.

“… … .”

Tia frowned at my words, then let out a deep sigh and said,

“… … I’ll think about it.”

* * *

Right after Oz’s first persuasion ends, he goes back. Tia thought as she watched Oz leave through the hallway window.

“You know nothing.”

Now I know that everything they said was for her sake. But for her, the only purpose in life was Spina.

Does Oz know how much the words at that time hurt her?

“You know that. Just because you know, because things have changed.”

Tia’s emotional trough was deeper than she thought. The sense of betrayal and despair at that time still angers her.

“Emotions are not something that can be changed so easily.”

Emotions do not simply change over time.

This is especially the case when the hole is deeper. You can’t get out of it.

Even Tia is still young compared to dragons.

You don’t know how to control your emotions.

“The young me, the young me. I, who hadn’t been able to become an adult yet.”

Her face soon becomes infinitely frowning. It contained misery.

“The way I hate them is that I’ve endured it all this time.”

Tia has been walking all her life to hatch Spina. It had only one purpose in mind.

There are times when it almost collapses. Seeing Spina’s egg showing no sign of awakening despite waiting for hundreds of years, the despair deepened.

What I was able to endure at that time.

It was to show off their dreams, the world, and the existence of their family to those who ignored it.

For her, the words that she would never be born, the words that she’d better give up.

Because I had no choice but to hear words that seemed to ridicule my dreams and the world.

Of course it is different now.

I already knew that all those harsh words were for her sake.

That her life has now reached a new turning point.

Spina, her longing for, was born healthy, so it’s time to shake off the harsh words she heard in the past.

But will it be easy? Is it possible to get rid of emotions so easily?

“ha… … .”

Tia didn’t know yet.

I had never thought of getting rid of those feelings until now.

That’s why you’re hesitating.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to calm down with Harbart right in front of me.

In the worst case, the faucet may turn around and fight.

Shouldn’t you be able to control your emotions in order not to do that?

So you’re waiting

A chance to control your emotions.

“sister.”

Tia was surprised to see Spina staring at her with her head sticking out from the dean’s office.

“Uh, uh. Spina. What’s up? Are you missing your sister already?”

“This is getting weird.”

“ah… … . Oh no.”

What Spina offered to Tia was melted ice cream.

It must have been that he couldn’t stand the heat emanating from the spina’s horns.

The ice cream in the form of a soft corn melted thickly and even stained Spina’s hands.

Tia wiped Spina’s hands with a handkerchief and then said with a wry smile.

“I guess I’ll have to wash this.”

“yes.”

“Then shall we go? Zero car.”

Tia hugged Spina and walked to the bathroom.

Soggy things need to be washed off.

That fact was well known to her. Right now I’m just looking for a way.

Over time, if there is an opportunity.

so you can make a decision.
