Chapter 176: Their Every Situation pt3
After being stunned for a moment, Miharu replied with a naturally flowing theatrical tone. Their views intersected, and it was unclear which side started it, but the two smiled at each other.
「Although our meeting was not in the most desirable state, I am glad I was able to meet you, Miharu-san. 」
After a moment of silence, Lilyana told him with a happy smile.
「Yes, I feel the same way, Lilyana-sama. 」
Miharu agreed with a slightly embarrassed face. She did not feel nervous even though Lilyana was a noble, but she felt they had the same wave. It was as if they had been friends for years. That was why she was happy that Lilyana felt the same way as him. That's what he thinks.
Lilyana looked at Miharu as if wondering what to say to her―― 、
"Thank you very much . ………. Then, Miharu-san. Can I ask you one question? 」
He started talking in an awkward voice.
「Yes, what is it? 」
「I want to borrow your dictionary for a few days ……………. . Would you allow it? 」
「………. . A dictionary? 」
Miharu tilted her head and raised the small Japanese dictionary in her hand. It was placed in her school bag and sent with her when she was summoned to this world.
"Yes . Although the current me might not understand what was written there, my curiosity was triggered when I heard it was written in Kanji, so I wanted to know what letters it had. I think I'll learn better if I learn something that interests me. 」
「Once yes... memorizing out of curiosity does increase the speed of learning. …………… . Should we make it your homework? Please look for letters or words that trigger your curiosity in the dictionary and I'll explain to you the meaning of those words or letters during the next lesson. 」
After nodding herself, Miharu decided to lend her dictionary to Lilyana.
"Thank you very much . I will do my best in my studies. …… Demi Miharu-san as well. 」
Lilyana smiled a little mysteriously as she said thanks to Miharu, but the words she said at the end of her sentence did not reach Miharu's ears.
Elsewhere – Sumeragi Satsuki was quietly swinging her training spear at one corner of the training ground, her expression lethargic.
The reason was the news he received from the king of Galwark kingdom, Francois. They could not use the magic ship for a while due to the appearance of the dragon.
In the current situation, neighboring kingdoms, including the Galwark kingdom, forbid air travel and the end of the ban, as it happens, will not happen anytime soon.
Although he had asked Francois to negotiate with their ally kingdom, Saint Stella some time ago, the talks had not advanced any further.
（I heard that there were many casualties in the incident. Is the princess ………. Be safe? Although she is a fragile girl ...............）..
In fact, every time he recalled his conversation with Flora, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. Various feelings gradually fused in the form of his grip on the spear.
（First of all, what is a hero to them? The job of a hero is to defeat people like dragons right?）
Although he insisted that the heroes were necessary existences for this situation, he should have expected the answers he got to be negative and come up with explanations that seemed reasonable.
（Maybe the way they tell me that we're like a portable temple. ………… Geez, why did that damn dragon appear at such a time?）
Heroes are symbols of the authority of gods. And for a kingdom, whose power depended on the authority of a god, losing a hero, which they had gained after such a long struggle, could mean trouble.
Therefore they were not easily granted permission to go, let alone say, hunting monsters.
Surely, even Satsuki was troubled by the sudden appearance of dangerous monsters and this was the only thing she found irresistible. Although it would be a lie to say he was not afraid of facing the dragon, not doing anything while he had the ability to do something did not sit well with his upbringing.
「AH, GEEZ! 」
Satsuki swung her spear with all her strength as if to vent her frustration. After swinging his spear for a while, he sighed. Lalu–,
「Where are you now, Haruto-kun?」
He muttered his true feelings in an anxious voice.
