The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 483

Chapter 483

“Even the beasts lying around in the barn must smell less than you.” Wash it first.’

Following Luna’s words, I entered the bathroom.

I can’t help but agree that I haven’t washed for a long time and I’ve been covered in monster blood several times.

The bathroom was filled with water in a huge barrel, and the sound of burning wood could be heard from outside.

how to say

It was a strange feeling to see people who use surreal powers living deliberately in a primitive way.

Ellen knew nothing about her town.

So Ilwoldang would be the situation of the adults in this village too.

If you think about it, I don’t think it’s that strange to maintain this lifestyle.

After becoming an adult, do you know the secret of the village after you reach a certain age?

Just soaking in hot water.

– Is the water okay?

I couldn’t help but be startled by the thick voice coming from over the wall.

Ellen’s father.

It was Ronan’s voice.

“ah… … . yes. thank you.”

what.

It’s a very strange and bizarre feeling, like a boyfriend who came to his girlfriend’s house without a girlfriend.

What is this feeling of not knowing what to do because you took care of me so well?

Even right now I’m like Ellen and Nabal and I’m not at all like that?

however… … .

You have a father.

In fact, I have a fire on Tuesday, so there are times when I light it like this… … . Actually, I can do it alone… … .

Speaking of this… … . Are you getting scolded?

Let’s shut up for now.

Rub the dried crusts on your face and hair and wash it off.

Are you taking a good rest in a few days?

“Whoa… … .”

The realization that I had arrived in a safe place after a long time felt the tension loosen.

I wandered through the mountains without even taking a proper rest for a long time.

In the end, Ellen’s mother came to visit me, and I was finally able to reach Lizaira.

These were long, tedious but very dangerous days.

We have now reached a safe place.

In the hot water, I couldn’t help but feel a deep exhaustion.

Whatever it is, let’s lie on a proper bed and get some rest.

Once you have achieved your first goal, let’s think about the next thing.

– Smart

– Reinhardt.

“Oh that. yes!”

A knock on the door beyond the bathroom door startled me, and I responded reflexively.

It was Ronan just now, and now Luna.

-I left my clothes in front of the door. Change your clothes.

“ah… … . Yes, thank you.”

how to say

At first, I was forced to use my mother’s mother’s mother, but then it ended up like this.

this situation.

It’s incredibly uncomfortable… … .

* * *

Just as Luna knows what I’m in, Ronan seemed to know that I was lost.

After I washed up and changed into the clothes Ellen’s mother had prepared for me, I went out into the living room.

I heard Luna doing something in the kitchen.

Do you want to make me some food?

To me, Luna Artorius was stronger than Saviolin Tana.

The situation of such a person cooking for late guests in such an ordinary home felt strange.

Ellen’s father sat across from him, watching.

“… … .”

No, to be precise, it was like looking at the clothes I was wearing.

Come to think of it.

Ellen’s father was quite large.

I’m not short either, but he was a bit bigger and bigger than me.

The clothes I was wearing were, of course, men’s, and not something Ronan would wear.

It can’t even be Ellen’s clothes.

So you can find out whose clothes it is without having to ask.

I’m wearing the clothes Lagann Artorius wore.

That’s why Ronan Artorius in front of me has no choice but to stare at me and the clothes I’m wearing with an expression that’s hard to say.

What kind of weird situation is this?

To put it bluntly, I am at the home of the parents of the warrior who killed my father, and I am being treated to a meal wearing the clothes that the deceased soldier wore when he was alive.

I also came to visit them.

The inside and outside who accepted me.

They must be the beings who have strayed a lot from the top.

“Reinhardt.”

“yes.”

“Have you seen Ellen? After the gate incident.”

That question made me gasp.

I did see

I also encountered

It wasn’t a proper conversation, but we did talk to some extent.

Ronan nodded as if he had read something in my expression.

“I guess it wasn’t a very good reunion.”

“… … yes.”

The relationship and situation between me and Ellen.

Both Ronan and Luna seemed to know about what we were about to face.

* * *

Ellen once said.

My mother often made beef stew at home.

Regardless of whether you are good at food or not, there are limits to what you can do in a mountain village like this. You won’t have as many materials as you need.

I wonder where the beef came from, but apparently Ellen’s mother made beef stew.

The strange thing is that the food Ellen’s mother cooked for her tasted like something she had never tasted before.

“… … .”

Let me take a bite of the stew and pause. Luna stares at me.

Of course, if you look at the obvious person who is Ellen, Ellen is a Luna and Ellen, but anyway.

Did the subtly sneaky attribute also exist on this side?

“It’s delicious… … . It’s delicious, really.”

At my words, Luna still had a sullen expression.

“It may not suit your taste. I would always eat only the best ingredients and spices.”

Seriously, that’s not wrong.

I was in the Temple Royale class with the best environment in the empire, and after that, I served as the king in Edina.

The quality of food has never been an issue.

No, but it’s not delicious, is it?

“Oh, that’s not strange. No, it’s not that strange, it’s the first taste… … . I’m not saying it’s not tasty. It’s delicious anyway. yes.”

In fact, I was a bit puzzled after tasting it for the first time, but it didn’t taste bad.

Apparently, in this environment, I will put in edible herbs, including wild wild plants, rather than spices that are popularly used.

So it’s just a unique taste, but it’s not that it’s not delicious.

However, it was clear that Luna’s sarcasm had already been hurt by my hesitation.

She casts her gaze toward the window with her eyes narrowed.

“Anyway, your taste is picky because of the environment. I’m sorry. I’m in a position where I can only prepare food like this.”

this person.

There is a sense of entitlement in a strange place!

“Oh, honey, what would a kid who only lived in the city know?”

“I guess so.”

Ronan carefully patted Luna’s shoulder as she sprained.

why.

why.

Do you have to see your friend’s parents like this?

Oh, did I come here myself?

* * *

After twists and turns, I came up to the second floor after eating.

On the second floor there were three rooms.

One was a storage room, and I immediately knew what the other two rooms were.

One will be Lagann Artorius’s room and the other will be Ellen’s.

“This is Ellen’s room. rest here.”

“… … yes.”

I spread the futon that Luna gave me on Ellen’s wooden bed.

“… … .”

I don’t know how Lagann’s room was preserved, but the room Ellen used was nothing special.

Of course, the room must have been empty ever since Ellen went to the Temple and even after the Gate Crisis.

Of course, there were no traces of Ellen or body odor left.

However, it is the room that Ellen has been living in for a long time.

He would have spent his childhood here before coming to the Temple.

There were no fancy trinkets or accessories in the room. Of course, it could have been put away, but due to Ellen’s personality, it wouldn’t have been there.

Desk and wardrobe bed.

And several old wooden swords were hanging on the wall hangings.

It was a room with Ellen’s personality that was overly bleak. It probably wouldn’t have been much different from this when Ellen was actually living there.

The dorm room was nothing special except for the bare minimum.

And it was the same for me.

Come to think of it, Ellen and I had many similarities.

That I have no interest in decorating my room.

The fact that he devotes himself to training all day long as if something big happens if he plays today.

Other than that, there are no personal hobbies at all.

“… … .”

It just makes me feel weird.

Because I can’t feel any trace of Ellen in Ellen’s room.

I naturally think about what Ellen was like.

How will Ellen react when she finds out that I came to Lizaira out of the blue?

That also made me curious.

Of course, I know best that I am not in a situation where I can do such a thing.

I want to bring back everything I’ve lost.

Even knowing that it would be infinitely close to impossible.

So, in order to do that, I must not die.

Even in the last fight, in order not to die in a situation where you might fight Ellen someday.

I’m doing something bizarre, like visiting the parents of the person I’m supposed to fight with someday.

I don’t know what else I can get out of here.

Once I succeeded in reaching Lizaira.

* * *

The next morning.

When I opened the window, I could see the view of Lizaira at a glance along with the morning sunlight.

No, it was not morning, but judging from the sun, it was almost noon.

It was a cozy landscape.

A peaceful landscape that is so harmless that it seems like nothing will happen for hundreds of years.

I could see the villagers coming and going, and occasionally I saw children.

The number of households is not so small, but the residents were living peacefully.

“He slept a full day.”

“yes?”

“You must be tired, so you can.”

Luna’s words made me realize that the accumulated fatigue was not normal.

“I told the villagers that there was a guest. So people won’t be embarrassed when they see you.”

“ah… … . yes.”

“I want to look around the town, but also to get familiar with people’s faces.”

no wonder.

It was as if he was assuming that I would be here for quite some time.

* * *

Lizaira is an environment that can only be a closed village.

Therefore, a village like this would inevitably have no choice but to be wary of strangers.

However, the people of Lizaira did not show such an expression at all.

“You said you were Ellen’s friend? His name is Line… … .”

“This is Reinhardt.”

“Yes, Reinhardt. Stay comfortable and hide.”

Ellen’s friend.

Luna Artorius seemed to have told the villagers that a guest who had come in that name would stay in Lizaira for a while.

Of course, I was the only stranger in town, so passers-by, young and old, came up to me and started talking to me one by one.

“A friend of Ellen? haha… … . I wonder if Ellen is doing well.”

“How is Ellen?”

“Are you Ellen’s boyfriend?”

“Oops. This guy looks awful.”

“no way… … . Ellen must be having a hard time outside… … .”

“Why did you come alone and not with Ellen?”

Everyone was friendly, with no one being particularly angular.

Through the children’s reactions and the adults’ reactions, I was able to know the truth about Lizaira.

Children don’t know that the world outside has become a mess.

On the other hand, I saw adults who knew the situation to some extent darken their expressions when Ellen’s story came out.

The outside world had become a dead end and people were dying countless times, so the children were supposed to keep quiet because there was nothing good for them to find out.

my peers

In other words, those who seemed to be Ellen’s friends also came.

“hi? A friend of Ellen? I am Lena.”

“uh… … . hi.”

“Should I tell you your name too?”

“Reinhardt.”

“Yes, Reinhardt. Nice to meet you.”

It was a lively woman with bobbed brown hair. Perhaps it was strange that a stranger had appeared in this rural village, but he was staring at my face for a long time.

“My name is Arta.”

On the other hand, a slightly blunt-looking man came up to me and held out his hand.

“I heard that the situation outside is out of the question.”

“what… … . yes.”

Ellen’s friends would be around 20 years old, so even if they didn’t really know what was going on in the world, they knew something.

As I walked around Lizaira, chatting with people one by one, I had only one thought.

There is no time for this.

I didn’t come to Lizaira to play.

I did not come to greet each member of the village, but to receive instruction from Ellen’s mother or father.

This is not the time to be wasting time like this.

For now, as Luna Artorius ordered, I’m looking around the town and meeting people.

But even at this time people are dying.

She leaves Charlotte with Edina’s work, but she doesn’t know if things are really going right.

I don’t have time to waste like this.

In the peace of Lizaira, I fretted at the thought of an outside world without this peace.

A group of people could be seen descending from the foot of the mountain in the distance.

Someone had something slung over their shoulder, and in the forefront, I could see Ronan Artorius descending with a sizable wild boar slung over his shoulder.

Did you go hunting in a group?

no wonder.

This place has nothing to do with the world.

In the appearance of people living ordinary daily lives.

I felt some cruelty.
