Extra: Surpass Marty 9

The individuals who had entered the sickroo by chance in front of the infirirls had coether

Izu, the at their resolve, they opened the door with a s on the floor with reddened faces

“… What happened?”

From his bed, Rudel directed Izu their faces Aleist alone, with his confession, was averting his eyes from Millia with a red face

Millia looked around in wonder, but no one answered the words that ca, Izuh In the five years since she caestures had beco rown to adulthood Their faces had been drained of their youth, and all four of them boasted mature features But their insides were children nonetheless

“Hah, Rudel, what did you do this time around?”

Izumi arbitrarily placed her basket of fruit on the shelf before folding her araze, Rudel replied with a smile

“Listen to this, Izuic eyes If you just kinda gather some mana in your eyes and tune it, while it doesn’t reach the realht there, Rudel”

Halting Rudel’s explanation, Izu on the floor After sitting them up in the chairs around the sickroom, she made for the side of Rudel’s bed There was already a seat prepared at Izuazed over Rudel

Rudel also looked at Izumi with serious eyes, but after a while, he averted those eyes It was only at that

“… Did I do soic eyes looked over Rudel and Izuood to put the princess on the floor, and it’s no good to use your ic eyes, then just who am I supposed to practice on…”

As he looked over the sickroom, the bedridden boys entered his eyes Luecke and Eunius immediately looked away

“Don’t look this way, Rudel!” “I-I’m not into that!!”

The two of them displayed firm refusals, but Aleist was different Rudel had displayed the ic eyes before his own eyes And in the sickroom, the one he had confessed to, Millia, had come to pay a visit If some mistake did occur, Aleist wouldn’t be able to bear it

The ic eyes’ effects had already been cut, but in order to cover Millia’s eyes with his hands, Aleist moved his body He forcibly stood from the bed, but as he headed towards Millia, an intense pain assailed his body He had suffered injury inco he had taken before

There was no helping that his body wouldn’the could even stand from his bed

But the result was terrible

“Millia, look out!”

“Eh? … Kyaaaaah!!”

As Aleist suddenly leapt up froht hold Millia’s palm violently fleards Aleist’s left cheek

◇

“… Are you alright, Aleist?”

Having been forcibly returned to his bed, Aleist held his left cheek as he turned his face towards Rudel’s worry

“Do I look alright? I’ave a depressed reply, Luecke held back his laugher to enter the conversation Eunius openly laughed as he joined in

“Mainly psychologically To think we had a big show of Rudel’s level a that direct!”

“… Yeah Hey, Izumi What does everyone think I am? I definitely have an interest in wo too terrible”

“I wonder From the eyes of those around, it looked as if you naturally pull off even greater things”

Unable to accept that he had been used as a coue, Rudel smashed the question at Izu a slightly sharp tone

On those surrounding reactions, it wasn’t Aleist, but Millia’s face that went red She had been confessed to, so she thought it was her obligation to respond, for argument’s sake, so she had paid a visit But the sickrooive her answer

(Erk, this isn’t the right atmosphere to reject him)

Aleist definitely had a future full of hope, but Millia was a long-lived elf Unlike the huraduation was considered too early for raduated, they would be married on their family circumstance, for favorable relations between houses You could say that noas the only time they had to play around

But the commoner student Millia was different As an official or officer, she had co that she’d abide the country as a de with loyalty

But she had becoet out of the academy and confirm the breadth of her own abilities

As Millia held her head, Fina, who had been silent to that point, approached

“You’re Millia-senpai, right?”

“Y-yes!”

Suddenly called out to, Millia’s voice turned inside out She hurriedly corrected her posture, when Fina told her they were in the academy, and nowhere public, so she didn’t have to mind it

And before Aleist, Fina solicited to Millia

“Have you decided your course after graduation? (Well, I already know you’re off to the border But Aleist’s right here, perfectly enough, so let’s tryan invitation)”

“Y-yes It’s been decided that I’ll be stationed near the border”

It was a station she had just a bit to coht hope that if she worked hard out there, her ould be recognized To Millia, Fina gave a smooth and natural invitation to the defenders

“Is that so A knight of your caliber sent to the border… that sounds like a waste”

“Is it a waste? I do think the border is an important position”

“No, I certainlyhard on the border But I have only just witnessed your abilities at the tourna how her eone out of control and how she showed such a sha different

“The courage you showed, not stepping back a single step before the black knight, was splendid So I have a proposal I would love to add your power to the newly formed defenders I was ‘a little’ involved with their forhts for it”

On Fina’s act, Mii and Sophina whispered to one another

“The princess is a To think she could make such a serious proposal”

“Yes, but not just a little, she was the ringleader behind the whole ular basis”

While Fina did hear their whispers, she confirmed Aleist had bit onto Millia’s future, expressionlessly taking Millia’s hands and turning her face

“Senpai, how about it? (Let me nibble on those earrrrss!!)”
