Tsuki Ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu
Chapter 99: Lunch together on Gotetsu

[Well, today's college is over. Be sure not to be late for your next class]

I announce the end of the lecture to 5 dead bodies and 3 disabled people. Yesaa, we really screwed them today~. On my side, at the last 5 minutes the three of them were in a state where they could practically do nothing.

On the side where Shiki was watching, the fog lizard made them completely beaten up. It had something to do with their lack of experience in real combat, but I received reports that they were annihilated 4 times. That meant they stopped the fight 4 times and had to do it again, and even with that they were still beaten. I hope Blue Lizard-kun doesn't become traumatized. I will have him remove his barrier in the future and have them fight him once in a while. Do your best. There are still more than 10 battles left with Blue Lizard-kun.

[Ah, Karen Frost. I have business with you. I'd like to hear what plans you have after this]

“T-Today I only have sensei” class

Even when he was tired, he did not make me wait and answer quickly. So he's done for today huh. To have only one class in the morning, how smooth. But it's comfortable. In the morning I thought of calling the students who had free time and lunch with them, but this time let's invite Karen, and with Shiki, the three of us will have lunch together. About Rembrandt's sister, it's okay to call them to my office to greet them.

[That's cool. There's one thing on my mind, you see]

“T-Still there again?!” (Karen)

[Yes. Fortunately, it seems you have time too. Accompany me]

"... Y-Yeah" (Karen)

Good.

After confirming her will, I left the field by dragging Karen along with me. Usually, after a reflection meeting, it will become angry until the last minute. I finished a little early today.

After all, the group of five was quite weak.

Saying something like this might not be the best way, but I think they want to gossip. I somehow knew from their eyes. Actually, the supposedly kind Shiki reported everything to me.

Complain as much as you want. Next week will be fun to go to college again after all.

Karen probably noticed the smile that appeared on my face. Body shaking.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

“Shiki-san! Gosh, I thought I would finally ascend to heaven!”

“kadalscarylizardscarylizardsfrightening”

“What is Lizardman?! He dodged like a madman, fast, strong, hard! In the report, shouldn't I write that everything is amazing and that's aaaall ?! ”

“It already... a naga”.

“Then is that guy a dragon caller? No, it's not on a funny level. If I am asked which one I want to choose as an enemy, I will not hesitate in choosing the dragon” caller

“Oane-cha~n”

“Yuno, don't make a sad sound. This was beyond my expectations.. Maybe because it was Raidou-sensei!”.

Yareyars. It has become exactly as Makoto-sama said.

Looking at the students, I sighed inwardly.

From what I see, the fog lizard holds up quite a lot. The equipment was not as usual and the water fire was also not used. There was not even the slightest bit of intelligence that they usually used. Their strongest point was the group fight, of course, also none.

Frankly, he was on the same level as the weak mamono in the desert. However, the 5 youngsters who were said to have bright prospects came to him with all five and were annihilated 4 times. Seriously, how sad.

Makoto-sama had already predicted that they would be completely beaten, but even if it wasn't until the sudden completion, I really thought that they would put on a good fight at least. It seems that, even if it was Makoto-sama's order, since I acted well in front of them, I ended up being too lenient in my assessment of them. I have to reflect on this.

It seems that Mio-dono took longer than expected in her investigation of the countermeasures for forced summoning, so I have to help in that area, however, how troublesome these children are. Regarding Mio-dono, our current state of affairs is not so favorable. I-I don't want the punishment of exfoliation anymore. Even talking about it is already scary.

“Yeah, relax. Even with that, Raidou-sama is actually holding back quite a lot, you know? It is not set as a wall that you will not be able to overcome. I assure you about it ”(Shiki)

“That must be a lie! Shiki-san, no matter how I think about it, Raidou-sensei must be having fun with this!” (Jin)

“Jin, you said so, but the moves you showed were not the same as usual, you know? His enemy was a monster, moreover, that had the most strength. Aren't you nervous enough in there?” (Germany)

Nervous, or rather withered. Although the Mist Lizard did not use its coercive cry. How inexperienced.

“It was... certainly true. That may be true but ... "(Jin)

“Well, it is true that Raidou-sama is very strict. That's what he expects from all of you. For me, seeing how he treats you all makes me a little jealous ”(Shiki)

“Shiki-san, are you the type of person who heats up when bullied? Then I too..” (Amelia).

“Not that Amelia. It's just, it's been a long time since that person expected something from me. Seeing how he assigns tasks to you kids continuously, I might feel a little envious ”(Shiki)

He always thanked me, but the number of tasks Makoto-sama gave me was low. If I'm told that it's not the kind of relationship we have, that's all, but seeing my teacher interact with the students, there are times when I feel a little jealous.

The complaints that came out of everyone's mouth about Makoto-sama's lecture, I sometimes scolded them, corrected, calmed, sympathized or comforted them, while healing them. I'm used to this job. Today was much more prominent than usual as expected.

However, of the Rembrandt sisters who joined us recently, I have never heard of such a complaint. They should have been driven by feelings of frustration by Makoto in their first participation?

The two of them had calmed their breaths and were now inspecting their equipment.

“Sif-san and Yuno-san. How's it? Do you think you can continue? ” (Shiki)

“Ah, uh. Shiki-san, huh? Doesn't matter. Yuno and I will come again next week ”(Sif)

"Yes. It starts from now! I definitely continue!” (Yuno)

Oiya, how surprising. It doesn't seem to need to be followed. “Looks Makoto strong” That's what their eyes say. Their will is not broken. After all, if they did not have lukewarm personalities, then it would be more comforting to me.

Umu, rumors say their personalities are troublesome, but it's unreliable huh. Like this, it seemed like it would be beneficial to teach them.

Maybe in the future, but maybe there will be a time when Makoto-sama and I will meet these girls as the daughters of our partner company, she said, so I think we'll be able to make a good connection. Ah that's true. It would be better to know where they both live. Makoto-sama probably went straight to Gotetsu.

When I checked, the five of them had already gathered and started to analyze their opponents. The troublesome kids. Seeing this, I feel like they really plan on not coming to the next lecture.

“I also want to hear the opinion of Sif-san and Yuno-san. Is that okay?” (Amelia)

Amelia invited them both. Although they did not fight him head-on, he was probably curious about the impression the fog lizard gave him from a different point of view. He didn't think about how it bothered the two, but well, I welcome ambition.

The circular feeling that the five people had before college was now gone. One reason might be because they were beaten up hard. I don't think this will open their hearts completely, but it could be a trigger to strengthen their connection. Prioritizing what they need right now instead of doing bad gossip is most likely something that comes with young people.

"Yes. If we're okay for you, then of course! ” (Sif)

“It's good we left the next time slot open just in case, Onee-chan!” (Yuno)

I see, so they set up a counter plan for the rumored lecture out loud. But really, they are really straightforward which is funny. If they are still bad guys after all this, then I can only consider them as the best actors of all. Maybe the rumors are wrong.

The actual discussion of Makoto-sama's fun lecture begins. Makoto-sama told me not to give them any advice, so I could only shut up. Being ambitious is something I think a student likes. Seeing a hatchling try to see what is above is commendable.

If that's the case, it's inevitable. Although Makoto-sama warned me about it, I will turn a blind eye this time. About participating in the next lecture, I will leave it as if I saw nothing either.

Without saying anything, I went and finished my business in the staff room before heading to the place where I was going to meet Makoto-sama.

From here it might be a bad story. In fact I can say that I am trying to make a strong smile. That woman, what kind of goal did she have when she came to this Academy?

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

[That's here]

I took him to Gotetsu. Since it had just opened, there was no one here yet. At 1 o'clock the people coming for lunch will start flowing here, so it's like the calm before the storm.

It would be fine to bring it to the Kuzunoha Company, but since it was like some kind of base, I did not want to suddenly bring in unknown factors. So I decided to take her to Gotetsu which was the place we had previously planned to come to lunch.

When Shiki completes his follow-up with the students and investigates Rembrandt's sister's address, it will be lunch. Nabe changes the taste as time goes by, so let's continue ordering until he gets here. If we finish eating before he comes, it will be wrong.

I used [Sakai] to set up the soundproof area. With this, there was no fear of our conversation leaking outside.

Hmph~, it seems like he didn't realize that I was using [Sakai]. I see, so he can't detect [Sakai].

This female student, I checked her documents again and have confirmed it. As expected, he was suspicious.

“Raidou-sensei, please start talking about why you brought me here. Did you find the points you were interested in? ” (Karen)

Karen had a face full of fatigue, but at the moment she had a calm mask that no one would be able to see that she was exhausted and was staring straight at me. It was actually impossible to recover from mental fatigue in such a short period of time, so it was clear that he was pushing himself. Maybe he just has that kind of skill trained in his body unlike anyone else his age, I think.

Also, skills. Comparing him to the people I met at the Academy, he was top class. No, thinking about him as a disciple is too strange. That coordination with someone who was still unfamiliar, and the power of the spell and its speed. I tried to get him out when I destroyed and provoked him, but he might not have shown me everything yet. It was a very perverse attitude towards Jin and the others I taught and this Academy. The fact that he was "hiding his true power". Shiki also gave me a brief thought transmission that said "be careful". He probably knows something about this girl.

I think I put out his skills in decent numbers in that lecture. In the second half he seemed to be getting a little angry. He arranged a few things while making sure it was not noticed by the sisters. Even in circumstances where he tried to hide his true strength, he let some of it leak out.

[Actually, inevitably I feel that your true abilities are unnatural]

[Yes. It's not on a student level. Not only that, the magic was clearly used in the usual way used in real combat]

“I am a military witch in my country. I have participated in several conquest missions. If you doubt me, you can ask the details to related parties” (Karen)

Without a doubt, Karen spoke of her personal history. He was talking about the royal army having an unnecessary long name in a voice full of pride.

His own personal history may actually exist for real. After all, he talked about it with great confidence. It depends on how long he has been planning this and on what scale it is.

This is what I thought but, perhaps, the personal history called Karen Frost no longer exists in this world anymore. And maybe she imitated it using her appearance.

Substituting.

Breaking into the country, getting promoted, entering the Royal Academy, becoming a soldier and moving to Rotsgard. Rather than making such a personal history, I think it would be easier to replace someone who has such a history. Especially if the person is from a distant place.

[I doubt you're really Karen Frost. I've read Karen Frost's personal history. As you said, due to the sudden situation, you have experience in the military and you hold that position even at this time]

“Although you know that much, why are you in doubt? I am the real Karen Frost. Ah, could it be, sensei said that to try and learn a lot about me? Then I..”.

[As expected, strange. Does one usually act like that after being in doubt? Wouldn't they show more anger?]

I ignored Karen's words. Not that I care about a human life. It was just that he acted like that in an appearance like he was mocking the deceased. It makes me feel a little angry.

It is possible that all my assumptions were wrong. But his attitude was practically in the dark.

“Only it is an unreasonable thing to say that I don't even feel like mad” (Karen)

[Sudden campaign spread. Were you involved with Karen Frost at the time?]

“Fufu, sensei. Your strength is indeed strong, but I don't think that you are the type of person who keeps talking about incomprehensible things. I won't be coming to sensei's class anymore. I don't need lunch either. Excuse” (Karen)

While holding a calm expression, Karen stood up from the opposite seat.

[Karen, aren't you interested in why I doubt you for not being the real person?]

Don't people usually want to know the reason why someone doubts your identity? Will they just leave without asking? However, he not only did not pursue the subject, but also tried to avoid the topic himself, which is what I felt. Even now he is trying to escape.

He did not seem like he was angry in the slightest and his face could be considered faint when trying to smile. He was lenient at first, but this might be a technique in negotiation.

“... Of course. Thinking that I was a completely different person just because my skills were unnatural did feel very rash. Will you tell me why? ” (Karen)

Sure oes. I intend to do it because I'm having trouble inviting you to lunch.

[Because the appearance you are trying to hide is really visible to me]

“Fufu, do you see the real me? Are those words of love?” (Karen)

[It means exactly as I said]

"I'm sorry, you may have taken the trouble, but I have to reject your confession" (Karen)

[Even if you don't have horns, that blue skin, what's the devil's business in the Academy?]

Karen's words stopped in the middle of the sentence. Surprised, he opened his eyes wide. That he immediately made an alluring smile was sure to smooth it out. In Tsige and Academy City there are actually a few times when spies want to try to enter our Kuzunoha Company. At that time, Tomoe-sensei and Shiki-sensei taught them various things in practice. Even now, when I received a friendly smile like this, I felt that there was some sort of ulterior motive. This is something I myself think about. It seemed because they did not want the target to notice their uneasiness and try to calm down silently.

G-Great. He probably wouldn't have escaped in the middle of it by now. Looks like I can buy enough time for Shiki to come. It would probably be better to eat obediently first. I was pretty nervous inside.

“Please don't joke. Which part of me looks like a demon?” (Karen)

Karen made it her turn to show me. But as long as the spell doesn't affect me, he'll still look like a blue person.

[Everything. Your blue skin, your red eyes. Blonde hair. Half length. I don't see any human beings at all. Let me say this first, the illusion of half-and-half does not work on me]

“…”

[You killed Karen and replaced her. Is it like that? The hornless devil]

“…”

Without saying a word, Karen reacted a little to the second half of my writing. The muscles on his face twitched lightly, or so it seemed. In that case…

[I want you to answer my question, hornless devil]

“... Didn't think I'd get caught this fast. Raido yes. What a strange teacher ”(Karen)

[You admit it, right?]

"Yes. I don't mean to tell you my purpose, but I'm not Karen Frost. You're correct. But ...” (Karen)

[What?]

“Don't call me hornless anymore. I'll kill you ”(Karen)

The female devil who had taken off Karen's mask, I could see something somewhat blurred out from her contours. He might stop his camouflage. And an intense killing intent was fired. It's a bit easier to take than Sofia, but well, I don't think I'm good at handling a woman's anger.

I grew up in a family where the women were strong, so my weakness is not something I can fix right now. I can't just ignore it, so for now let's just ignore it.

[Has Karen been.?]

“Yes, as you concluded. But the one who did it wasn't me. This is the work of Karen's friends. I just found his personal history comfortable so take that opportunity ”(Karen)

[So, friends. Karen Frost is so pathetic]

I'm not really interested in how the girl died. It was as I concluded, but I didn't even know Karen. For a human to kill another human being was not something unusual. In modern times it is almost the same.

No need to ask. I can imagine why the demon in front of me was in such a place. After all, humans and demons were at war.

“Ara, you're suddenly cold. Well, the girl named Karen is called magical, but on the other hand, she seems to have a lot of grudges. Can I ask you something too? Are you human?” (Karen)

[I don't know the reason for that question but, yes, I am indeed a human being]

“Heh~ hyuman huh~. But how unusual. After seeing the devil you will usually look at me with red eyes ”(Karen)

[MY.].

Aaah, how troublesome!

“I am on the side against racial discrimination. Even if they have blue skin, it doesn't matter, as long as they can brainstorm, after all, it makes no difference to someone ”(Makoto)

“?!! You... can use demon language?! But, the word 'race discrimination side' was the first word I heard. Judging from your words, you mean as long as you can exchange conversations, the outer appearance is fine, right?” (Karen)

“Well, yeah, something like that. So, how should I call you? Please keep me away from Karen's name. After all, it was the name of a deceased person. I still want to hear a few more things, so please give me the name ”(Makoto)

“No... no need for it”

The woman narrowed her eyes looking a little sad. It can even be considered pity. From the sudden change in his expression and his shoulder going down, I accidentally found the movement funny, in contrast to his usual teasing.

“…”

“For a human to talk normally with a demon is enough, no, very interesting to me, but, you can tell right? I have to eliminate you at any cost. Either way, you'll get in the way of my work. That's why there's no need to tell you the name ”

“The woman's name is Rona. He dropped his family name. He is one of the demon generals of the demon army, Raidou-sama”

“?!”

"Shiki ya" (Makoto)

The killing intent that filled the room was erased by the sound of a third party. It is like spreading the heat of summer by sprinkling water. It also made me feel like I was splashing water. Rona who had confirmed Shiki's presence and words, quickly took a fighting position.

It's too late. But with this, it seems like we can finally talk about a lot of things. That Shiki, he really knows her. Rona yes. That he threw away his surname and was hornless, gave the impression of a mysterious woman. Wearing a school uniform with an adult body, I honestly couldn't see it as cosplay and it made it hard for me to fix my eyes. She wore it slightly pulled down so it made me think like it was even more.

And also, a demon general huh. This will be the first time I come face to face with a demon from the demon camp.

As expected, it was something troublesome.

In the room that had been filled with tension for a while now, Shiki's footsteps resounded and she sat down. I am still in a sitting position. And Rona-san who tried to leave the room in her Karen form, still stood up.

Just as he was running out of patience looking at Shiki's gaze, he let out a small sigh and took his seat once again.

A strange lunch begins in Gotetsu.
