#316
“···Is it already morning?”
Ronan opened his eyes. Dusky sunlight was seeping through the translucent curtain. For the first time in a while, she didn’t dream about her and her mind felt refreshed because she had a good night’s sleep.
“Hwaaaaaam…. ”
If it weren’t for my schedule, I would have liked to sleep more. He yawned profusely and turned his head while lying down. Ade Shan was seen lying down using his own right arm as a pillow.
‘It’s pretty.’
Ronan twirled his hair with his index finger. Now it was a sight I saw every morning. Just then, she opened her eyes and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
“Ugh…what time is it?”
“Oh, are you awake?”
The hair that was tangled in a haphazard manner was reminiscent of seaweed. Ronan, who had been rummaging through the nightstand with his other arm, picked up his alarm clock.
“Let me see, it’s 8:30.”
“I see… Then I’ll just hold on a little longer… Wait, what?!”
Suddenly, Adeshan raised his upper body as if bouncing. The blanket came down, revealing my pure white naked body.
Ronan reflexively gave a thumbs up at the sight, which was amazing no matter how many times he saw it, but today she couldn’t afford to be fooled. Ade Shan grabbed her head and tied it up.
“I-I don’t know. “You’re completely late…!”
“Eh? “Isn’t the graduation ceremony starting at 10 o’clock anyway?”
“I was the student council president! “Did you forget that the principal entrusted me with the case?”
“ah.”
Ronan snapped his fingers. Come to think of it, she seemed to have taken on that task. Adeshan screamed as she rushed to help her up.
“Ugh!”
“what’s the matter?”
“Well, the strength in my legs hasn’t returned yet…”
She barely succeeded in standing up after five minutes of effort. When she saw her legs shaking, she felt a bit guilty. Ronan, who had been scratching her head, bowed her head.
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m finished… I’m sure everyone will find out why I’m late… I’m crazy, why did I get into the mood like that…”
Adeshan mumbled to himself the whole time he was getting ready to go out. Her white face was turning red as if it would explode at any moment. Ronan, who had taken her clothes while she was washing, huffed.
“Calm down and get dressed first. Wow, I never thought the day would come when we would wear school uniforms again.”
“thank you. Ugh… are you sure you can get in properly? Even if it’s strange, you shouldn’t laugh…”
“Don’t worry, you’re pretty no matter what you wear. But the frequency is too frequent to say that I only got into the mood last night.”
“You really… start preparing first!”
Adeshan, who was about to say something, turned his back. There was no time for a heated argument. How did she get her preparations done on time?
“Hey. “This succeeds.”
“Ahaha, it’s basic.”
Ronan stuck his tongue out. Indeed, it was an improvisation worthy of a former commander of the Allied Forces.
As expected, Adeshan’s school uniform did not get any smaller. Rather, it had another charm when I wore it as an adult. Just before leaving her front door, she smiled brightly as she kissed Ronan.
“I will be back. love you!”
“me too.”
Ronan waved his hand. bang! The sound of the front door closing rang out. After stretching, he returned to his room.
In order to attend on time, I had to prepare carefully. Ronan took out his school uniform from her closet and chuckled. The leather that Ade Shan had added to her coat was still visible.
“It’s Phileon… It’s been a really long time.”
****
Ronan left the house an hour later. The school uniform I wore for the first time in a long time fit my body properly. The sound of birds chirping could be heard all over the street in the morning.
“The weather is nice.”
The early spring sky was clear without a single cloud. As I saw the plants starting to sprout again, I could clearly feel the passage of time. It’s already been a year since the war with Nebula Clazier ended.
‘It feels so far away. Time flies so fast.’
Ronan, who was reminiscing, licked his appetite. The years passed by so quickly that she didn’t even know what she was doing. She had many things going on, but most of her time was devoted to restoring the destroyed world.
Abel’s words that he had wiped out 30% of the world were not false. Countless people were killed or injured, and many countries and communities were destroyed.
The system also suffered serious damage. The closure of Phileon Academy was extended until the city regained its original form and stabilized.
The reason Ronan came to live with Adeshan was because Phileon’s dormitory was destroyed. He looked around and whistled.
“Oh, but they fixed a lot.”
From afar, I could see the imperial palace, which was undergoing restoration work. It was the last construction work to be done after all other buildings and facilities were repaired.
Balon, 44, who miraculously survived, devoted himself to stabilizing and restoring the empire until his hair turned gray. For a few months after the war, he really thought he and everything were ruined, but one thing he had was outstanding.
“I wonder if the emperor will come today too…”
Ronan muttered. The last time I saw him was at the title award ceremony, so if I were to attend this graduation ceremony, it would be my first time seeing him in a long time.
Still, it didn’t take as long as expected for the broken world to come back to its original state. People who experienced a common disaster came together as one.
‘Even the battleship Dainhar was mobilized for construction.’
Dragons and vampires, who were originally not interested in the worldly world, helped with the restoration work, which was a great help in shortening the time. Ronan arrived at Phileon and naturally headed to the plaza.
“Damn, were there always this many?”
Ronan, who was crossing the crowd, frowned. Perhaps because it was a graduation ceremony held at the same time as the end of school closures, there were more people than usual.
“Bwaaaah!”
Sita arrived first and was circling the sky above the main plaza. Ronan had barely arrived at the audience and was looking around to find a seat. A loud voice echoed from not far away.
“Ronan! “Here!”
“What, are you all here already?”
Ronan, who encountered Marya, shrugged his eyebrows. Her familiar faces were by her side.
Marya, now Count Armalen, had become more mature like her other friends. Arriving at her seat, Ronan greeted her with his exaggerated gestures.
“Thank you for your consideration. Countess Marja.”
“what. “You are also a nobleman.”
Marya laughed as if she were dumbfounded. As in her previous life, she received the Armalen estate from her uncle the Emperor and became a noblewoman.
Although her inaction during the war played a role, her family’s Caravel Merchant Marine Company played a great role as a supply chain for the Allied Forces.
Now, Caravel Sangdan has proudly emerged as one of the top three largest merchants on the continent. Suddenly, a loud laugh erupted from behind her.
“Whahaha! That is also true, Prince Ronan de Baltua. “Is the territory well managed?”
“Braum? “Why are you sitting here?”
Ronan opened his eyes wide. Braum, who had a bushy beard, had his school uniform bulged as if it would burst at any moment.
“You’ve become a complete furry. “Aren’t you going to get a diploma?”
“Of course I will receive it, but before that I came to say hello! Miss Ophelia and the Grand Duke together!”
After saying that, Braum stepped aside. Ophelia, who had been hidden from view, walked forward. It was obvious, but as a vampire, her appearance had not changed at all from before.
“It’s been a while, Ronan. “Thank you for being so good to me… Joining your club was the best decision of my life.”
“I am. What are you going to do when you graduate?”
“Now that the restoration work is roughly finished… I think I’ll focus on researching new blood magic this time. Fortunately, the Grand Duke came to his senses…”
Ophelia laughed. The sparkling fangs between her lips were cute. Ronan tilted his head when he heard that she was an archduke.
“that’s right. Where is that guy? “Didn’t you say we came together?”
【I am here.】
At that time, a young voice came from somewhere. Ophelia stood next to her in silence. A boy less than half the height of Ronan appeared. Ronan asked with a feeling of uncertainty.
“···Grand Duke?”
【okay. It became ridiculous. If it weren’t for you and Ophelia, I wouldn’t have come.】
The archduke, now a boy, clicked his tongue. His cheeks were so soft that he looked like he was no older than ten years old. He sacrificed six of the seven pure blood essences to survive.
“Aha… I’m glad I’m still alive. “If I touch your head, will you get angry?”
【I won’t pay it right away. Because you are much stronger than me. But you better be prepared for how your body will be used after you die.】
Ronan chuckled after hearing the Archduke’s answer. He looked at his personality and saw that it was someone he knew. At that time, students’ noise was heard nearby.
“Hey… Is that person… by any chance… the mother of fire? “I saw it at the entrance ceremony the year before last…”
“Oh, no way… but who is next to me? “Soo, I can’t breathe well.”
At the same time, Ronan, sensing something unusual, turned his head. In the row in front of her, the red-haired lady and her man dressed all in black were standing side by side.
The life force rising from the man’s shoulders was unusual. He rolled his eyes and looked around, then growled lowly.
“That’s not even funny. “Why do I have to be in this position?”
“Don’t be like that. “I guess I’ll have to keep coming every year anyway.”
“Damn it, that time is sure to come to bring destruction and despair, right? “It will have to be that way.”
“no. “It’s Ronan and his friends’ graduation ceremony.”
The noble lady smiled. For a moment, a deadly force surged onto the man’s shoulders. It was at a level that would have made a normal person black out just by touching him, but the noble lady prevented the damage from spreading by hitting his side with her elbow.
“Gagging!”
“Oh my, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Kwasik! With the sound of bones crunching, the man fell to her knees. The lady laughed, covering her mouth with her fan as if nothing had happened. Ronan, who was watching the scene, laughed.
“What are you two doing there?”
“Oops, did you get caught? “I even hid my horns.”
“…Honestly, Mr. Navardose, horns are not the problem.”
Ronan looked at Navardose, who was genuinely surprised, with a blank expression. His eyes were firmly fixed on her wonderfully voluptuous chest. Ronan asked.
“Anyway, nice to meet you. “What about Adren?”
“Ajdahaka and Alibrihe are leading the construction. They both do a very good job. Elthea and that child were also together, so it seemed like the work would be over soon.”
“aha. “That’s a good thing.”
Ronan hesitated. Well, all three of them were geniuses in their respective fields, so they were probably doing well. At that time, Orsay, who was moaning in pain, raised his head.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu us us us us us us ours?
“Then why did you get hit for making fun of me?”
“I’m not interested in you. Where is the killing machine? “Bring him in!”
cried Orsay. The voice was so loud that everyone in the plaza could hear it. Asher, who was sitting next to Marya and supporting her arm, shrugged her shoulders.
“Hey! Oh, Master Orsay?!”
“Hahaha, there you are! Come with me. A new blood festival is prepared for us in the south!”
Orsay, who encountered Asher, burst into laughter. He approached people recklessly, pushing them away. Asher, his face turning white, screamed.
“Si, I hate it!”
He closed his eyes tightly and swung his arms. puck! An invisible fist flew out in an instant and struck Orsay in the chin. The demon dragon, whose eyeballs were overturned, fell forward.
“Oh, no! “Stop without even realizing it!”
Asher suddenly stood up. Navardose sighed when he saw Orsay fainting. After confirming that Ronan was completely unconscious, he clapped his hands in admiration.
“It’s awesome. “I couldn’t even see it.”
“Ro, Ronan…! “That’s not it!”
Asher was trying to make an excuse. A familiar voice rang from the entrance.
“Oh, there it is! Ronan! Guys!”
Just hearing his voice seemed to energize my body. When I turned my head, the first thing I saw was students splitting to the left and right.
Iril and Schlieffen were walking through the wall made of people. Exclamations of exclamation were coming from all directions.
“wow.”
“Well, I’m the morning star of the empire… Who’s next to me?”
“It’s like an angel that came down from heaven…!”
The students could not take their eyes off Iril. Blood rushed to Ronan’s forehead when he saw the two of them naturally linking arms.
‘no. calm down.’
He suppressed his anger by gritting his teeth. As much as he hated to admit it, Schlieffen was the only creature on this planet worthy of his sister’s companionship. Iril soon came and hugged her younger sister.
“Ronan! How have you been? Hehehe, seeing as you haven’t been home lately, are you having fun with Adeshan?”
“Well… of course. How is your sister doing? “Is this bastard doing well?”
“then! It’s nice to have customers come here often these days. Schlieffen comes every morning too!”
Iril smiled brightly. She had been running a small restaurant for several months. The main menu was crude dishes that did not fit the system, such as potato stew, but for some reason, the number of customers never stopped coming.
“···Miss Iril. “You need to sit down soon.”
Schlieffen just blushed and said nothing. It had already been a year since she went out of her mind and proposed to him, but even being grabbed by the arms and being dragged around was still too much of a trigger for him. Ronan quietly put his mouth to Schlieffen’s ear and whispered.
“No matter what you imagine, it won’t happen until you get married. Did you understand?”
“…I am not such a terrible person.”
Schlieffen said. Ronan chuckled involuntarily at the serious tone that seemed determined to protect the world. He also knew that Schlieffen would not do that.
“I guess so. It’s good to see you after a long time. “I’ll see you later.”
“okay. “I have to start a new semester.”
“See you later Ronan! hi!”
Iril and Schlieffen sat side by side at a distance. Every time she chattered and crossed her arms or slapped her shoulder, her Schlieffen was going crazy.
At that time, a girl appeared from nowhere and stopped in front of Iril.
“I want to sit here.”
“yes? “Who is the little lady?”
“Lin.”
His white hair, as rich as a lion’s mane, was flowing down to his waist. Schlieffen’s eyes widened when he saw Lin.
“you···!”
“Handsome butt No. 2. hi.”
I’m sure I remembered seeing it before. It was the incarnation of the holy sword carried by Ronan, who constantly tried to touch her buttocks during the Festival of Swords.
Having regained enough strength, she was now able to move around in human form. Lin, sitting arbitrarily on Iril’s lap, let out her admiration.
“But you’re really pretty… the prettiest human I’ve ever seen.”
“Oh, thank you. “The little girl is really cute too.”
Iril smiled brightly. She picked Lin up without even having time for Schlieffen to stop her. Iril, who was fiddling with her voluminous hair, turned to her Schlieffen and said:
“You know, if I have a child in the future, will my hair be this color? So pretty.”
“Gagging!”
Schlieffen, who was swallowing his saliva, was caught in the sand and gulped. Iril tilted her head.
“what? “Why are you doing this?”
“Ah, it’s a child… like that…!”
Schlieffen, who was about to say something, avoided his gaze. When she saw his flushed face, Rin giggled in amusement. Suddenly, a majestic voice echoed throughout the plaza.
“Then, let the graduation ceremony begin. “Everyone, please be quiet.”
People’s attention was focused. Before I knew it, Krava Kratir, the principal of Phileon Academy, was on the podium. Standing behind him was former student council president Adeshan.
“Oh, I can’t believe you’re really graduating… Adeshan…”
Erzsebet, who was sitting in front of Ronan, sniffled. She even wore her binoculars to get a good look at Ade Shan. Ronan said.
“You can come see me often. “I’m at my house anyway.”
“Don’t talk to me, you scoundrel! Oh my god, what a life where I wake up in the morning and have Adeshan by my side… I wouldn’t have let you go if you weren’t the hero who saved the world!”
Erzsebet burst into tears again. On her lap sat Schlieffen’s younger sister, Sion Siniban de Grancia, eating a cookie. Indeed, it was a fitting appearance for a bridgehead that dramatically eased the relationship between the Grancia and Acalusia families.
Behind Adeshan were many familiar faces. Varen, Nabirose, Jaradin, and his wife Sunya, who is a new martial arts professor. Kratir continued.
“As you all know, a lot has happened over the past year. “I will take a moment of silence for the warriors who gave their precious lives to save the world.”
People all closed their eyes and meditated. Next, the graduation ceremony began in earnest. Ronan, who was listening to Kratir’s boring speech, poked Asher next to him in the side.
“Asher. “What are your future plans?”
“Gye, plan? So… I guess I’ll probably be in the Twilight Tower for a while. I think I’ll go to another continent with Marya during the vacation… Ronan, what about you?”
“Well, what should I do first?”
Ronan smoothed his chin. Indeed, she was at peace for the first time in a long time, but there was too much work left to do to just play around.
First, I had to stop by the north, where Jaipa and Secret were located, and also visit the newly built temple by Sarante upon his return. In any case, there was a need to establish discipline so that the nobles of Grancia could not look down on their older sister.
Most of the classmates I played with during my time as a punitive soldier were still alive. Ronan knew that he was the only one who could bring those idiots back to life.
Somehow, the more he thought about it, the more things seemed to increase, so Ronan decided to focus only on the task at hand. He was scratching his head and opened his mouth.
“But I have to get a diploma first.”
Ronan laughed. As soon as Kratir’s speech ended, former student council president Adeshan’s tribunal began. A calm spring breeze was blowing over the quiet crowd.
Ronan really liked the scent of spring flowers on the wind, announcing the start of a new semester.
