𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟖: 𝐀𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚
I part ways with the loli at the school gate.
As I approach the magic class,
The class hasn’t started yet,
But it’s quite lively.
When I open the door,
The classroom becomes quiet in an instant, and a tense atmosphere fills the room.
What the. . . why?
🩴
A student with a stiff, lewd expression.
The seat next to him seems to be vacant.
I smile at him as our eyes meet.
He looks as if he’s just been sentenced to death.
“Good morning, excuse me.”
“Go. . .good morning, Otto von Haedecker-sama.”
“Oh, good morning, what’s the subject of today’s class?”
“Huh?”
“Today’s lecture content.”
“Ah, um, the content of the class changes every time, in a question and answer format.”
“I see.”
This is the first time I’ve attended a class from the beginning.
“Um. . . Otto-sama, the seats for the nobles are further up. . .”
“Oh, don’t worry about it. I have some questions, so it’s better to be closer to the professor.”
🩴
“Eh, ah, yes.”
Instead of a refreshing break in the silent classroom,
The professor enters.
He seems quite surprised by the quiet classroom.
That’s right, he was the professor during the interview.
He’s a slim, handsome middle-aged man with a shadow, he must be popular with the girls.
But, is it because of the game’s visuals?
There are many handsome men.
The girls are also quite something.
As a villain, my face is that of a small-time, ugly man.
But I’m a man.
🩴
“Good morning everyone, where shall we start today?”
The lecture begins without taking attendance.
I see, it’s like a dream class, attendance doesn’t matter. . .
There are noticeably empty seats.
Ah, there’s a student sneaking in from the back door.
The classroom is crushed by the silent pressure.
“Today, let’s talk about wind magic. . .”
I see, so that’s why the magic effect is like that. . .
I can’t help but agree, it’s very interesting because it reveals the small details of the game.
However, the reason for the wind is the conversation between the earth god and the sky god, it’s a fairy tale.
The North Wind and the Sun is still better.
🩴
Kukkoro-san, who sits behind me, has a bitter look on her face, that’s right, the Empire is monotheistic.
It might not match the polytheistic kingdom.
Well, think of it as a cultural difference and compromise.
🩴
After a break, the lecture continues.
Yeah, I’m getting hungry.
According to my stomach clock, it’s mealtime.
The noon bell rings.
“Today’s lecture ends here, the afternoon will be practical training, gather at the first training ground before the start of class bell. Those who are taking the previous exam, come early. We’ll do it all at once.”
After everyone lets out a sigh of relief, they get up from their chairs and move to the cafeteria.
There seem to be some people with lunch boxes. There are also some who are spreading out their wraps on the spot.
🩴
The lewd-faced student next to me is trying to sneak away and join the other boys.
Ah, including this guy, there are three followers in the game.
Should I deepen my friendship here. . .
I remember, all three of them are second and third sons of knights who grew up in the royal capital and are familiar with the geography of the city.
I want information.
“Where are you going?”
“Eh, um, to the cafeteria.”
“Oh, I’m going to the cafeteria today too, show me the way.”
I grab his shoulder firmly so he can’t escape.
“Yes, there is a lounge for the nobles, so you can have your meal there. . .”
Huh? There are two cafeterias?
Ah, in the game, you could choose between a luxurious cafeteria and a cheap one.
If you treat someone to a meal in the luxurious cafeteria, their affection for you increases.
However, if I bring a loli slave into a place full of nobles, I might get frowned upon.
“Okay, it takes courage to bring a slave into the lounge. Show me to the cafeteria.”
The lewd-faced boy sends a pleading look for help, but everyone else pretends not to notice.
“If you have a promise with someone else, it’s okay to go together. Introduce me.”
I grab his neck firmly. He can’t escape now.
The remaining two shake their heads vigorously and sell out their friend.
I drag the lewd-faced boy to the cafeteria.
In the hallway in front of the cafeteria, the loli is standing alone.
“Oh, sorry to keep you waiting. This guy is a classmate, what was his name again?”
“Yes, Robin. Robin・Steiner, a commoner. My father is a semi-knight of the kingdom.”
“Just a plain Robin. This girl is my slave Marca, the slave behind me is Vesta. My name is. . . well, never mind.”
“”Nice to meet you.””
Robin nods as if it’s a matter of course, well, that’s how it is in front of a slave.
It seems there are no eccentric people who send their slaves to school.
“Robin-kun, these girls are my favorites. If I see them being treated badly, I’m sure I won’t be able to keep my sanity.”
I put my hand on the handle of the large knife attached to my waist.
“I’m Robin! Nice to meet you!!”
“Alright, have we finished the greetings? Now it’s time for a meal. Robin! Explain the rules of this cafeteria.”
I asked arrogantly.
“Yes, first you buy a meal ticket. There are three types. Noodle ticket. A ticket for a large plate and bread. A ticket for a large plate with salad.”
“What? There are noodles?”
“Yes, the contents change daily. Originally, it’s a representative meal of craftsmen, so it’s made in large quantities and eaten by many people. When you join the army, you eat it until you’re sick of it.”
“Hmm, I see. . .”
Is this heaven? The army.
“After buying a meal ticket, you take a tray, cup, and cutlery and exchange them at the counter of the color of the meal ticket. You take a seat at an open table, get your meal, and when you’re done, you return your dishes in order at the return counter.”
I see, it’s a cafeteria system. . . It’s similar to a school cafeteria.
“There is one pot of tea on each table. The person who pours the last tea is supposed to refill the pot at that counter. That’s the rule.”
“Ho, it’s easy to understand and good.”
“When it’s crowded, those who have finished eating should chat in that lounge. That’s the manners.”
“I see. . . I can’t decide what to get.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. The daily menu is written on the blackboard on the wall. It’s strictly forbidden for students to touch the blackboard, and it’s subject to a deduction. It’s a remnant of the past when there were a lot of graffiti.”
“Hahaha, it has a history. There are always people who play silly pranks.”
“Um, it’s also forbidden to draw your sword or use magic in the cafeteria.”
“What? Is it okay if it’s bare hands?”
“No, not in that sense. Private fights are generally prohibited in the school.”
“What? I didn’t know that!! Duels are the flower of nobility, aren’t they?”
“What era are you talking about. . .”
That’s strange, I was dueling all the time in the game.
“Hmm, I see. . . I’ve had my servant draw it a few times. . . Well, it’s okay because she’s not a student. Vesta, buy four large serving tickets and one noodle ticket with this.”
“Yes, I understand.”
I hand over a silver coin. Vesta lines up at the ticket booth.
“Hey, Robin, you’re okay with a large serving ticket, right? Marca, eat your vegetables, you won’t grow big.”
“Yes!! Thank you.”
“I understand.”
Women in their growth period should need more fat.
“It’s not exactly a family motto. . . but my motto is to eat well and work hard.”
I clench my fist and the muscles under my uniform swell.
It’s the result of my training.
It’s not just my stomach that’s swelling.
In the end, it’s a battle of bare hands and stamina.
Robin mutters something.
“. . .Is he really a nobleman?”
“Did you say something?”
“No, it’s nothing!!”
Vesta has bought the meal tickets.
We line up at the counter with Robin in the lead.
Yeah, as expected of Robin, he’s got a large serving. Men have to be like that.
I put a large plate, bread, salad, and a deep bowl of noodles on the tray.
Hmm, this tray is small.
It’s not big enough for my motto of eating two people’s worth if I order a large serving. Should I grow four hands. . .
It would certainly be convenient if I were Ashuraman.
