And finally the day to start out travels began.

It will only be and Michelle-chan who will be taking the exams to enter Raum Academy.

In the first place if you are not eligible enough, you wont even have the chance to take the exam of that school.

In other words, its a narrow path even for the chosen ones may enter.

After loading my luggage near the entrance of the village, I finally said my sad farewells to my parents

At the mont, Finia was loading other luggage that we would need for travelling. The amount of luggage was kept to the bare minimum since everyone was already used to travelling, or more like it Finia who had a lot of extra luggage.

Well then, NicoleIm really sad to say goodbyeI will be really lonely ah forget it, Im also going!

Darling, please keep it a t that

With his face sloppy from tears, Lyell who was trying to stop and even attempted to board was thrown back by Maria without hesitation.

In recent tis, I could certainly feel that Marias Iron Mom toughness is coming out more often.

And Lyell where did that handso full of confidence guy go?

Nicole, please take care of yourself. You have that potpourri to help you with nausea right?

Un, Ill be fine

Please understand that you are physically weak, so be careful, okay? Also, feel free to tell Cortina or Maxwell if you have any troubles, okay?

Un

There are reasons why Im allowed to go to Raum.

One of them is that Maxwell and Cortina will take on my guardianship.

Well, Finia will also co along but she is only a commoner. If things beco difficult, it would be hard to rely on her for help.

Michelle-chans parents all followed along, but they are just ordinary hunters. They wont be able to help against children with high social status that will also be attending the school.

Dont worry, they will definitely help when you are in need

Did you use sothing that would make them rember sothing embarrassing from their past?

No Comnt

Oi, Maria What are you trying to teach her

As a trump card, Maria told sothing that would force Maxwell to cooperate in tis of need. Well, what she thought were mostly embarrassing monts of the two from the past. I knew a bit about Maxwells pastand yes, Cortina is included but what Ive learned from Maria was even more surprising.

Or more like, it was sothing I wouldnt really want to know if possible.

Lyell who was listening to what we were talking about from that side was covered in cold sweat. It seems like he was shocked discovering how absurd the dark side of her wife was like. Honestly, even I draw back for a bit.

Wel, never mind thatNicole, do you have your Katana?

Un, from now on I will be swinging this

Then, keep this in your mind. If things beco dangerousbe sure not to hesitate to kill

This ti too, Lyell made a serious look as he gives the advice. With Lyell and Maria around, the protection of the village was quite secure. There are monsters that occasionally invade, but they were killed by Lyell before they could even cause any damage.

But if its outside of the village, then that would be a different story. Three of the northern countries have suffered a lot during the fights and united together to bring back security. But because of that, there was a lack in terms of human resources.

Other than strategic areas of the country, the security on other places was not that good. Farrs were being devastated by monsters, so fallen rcenaries beca bandits. And in order to cope up with those threats, it is necessary for one to be able to kill or they will be killed.

Even Michelle-chan did her best in order to be able to kill monsters.

During these tis of confusion, the chance of encountering that is high. Thats why Lyell gave that advice.

But well, that advice is useless for , after all I am one of the six Heroes, not to ntion that I am one of the most ruthless of them.

By the way the top one for most ruthless was Cortina.

In worst case scenario, she would even cut off allied soldiers and use them as bait. Thats why there is no one else who stands above in terms of ruthlessness other than her.

After they finished loading their luggage, Michelle-chan and her parents boarded the carriage. Finia also finished loading our luggage.

Well then Finia. Ill be counting on you in taking care of Nicole, okay?

Please leave it to Maria-sama. I will be sure to protect her even at the risk of my life!

Oh, and I forgot to ntion this before butNicole seems to be so tomboyish and was missing a few things to be more ladylike, be sure to teach her well, understand?

Yes, I will be sure to make her into a fine lady!

No, thats no good

Is what I whispered behind Finia, and of course I made sure that she didnt hear it. Its not really like Im avoiding it, but it just didnt sit well with . In this case, I really have to make use of my covert skills to try and escape.

Rember about what you have learned from Lyell. Your own safety is a first priority, okay?

Hai

Finia too?

Eh, too?

Of course you are included, you are part of the family? Thats why be sure to also protect yourself

But

Finia started to murmur things.

She was still probably concerned about the fact that she was the cause of Reids death. Thats why Maria was insisting that she should also protect herself. As for , if I was driven to a corner and have to save soone, then I would probably offer my life in order to protect soone.

I understand. If Maria-sama says so

Even though she was still confused, she still swears to Maria to fulfill that promise. Seeing her like that, Maria puts her hand on Finias shoulder.

You know? I have told you this many tis now, that Reids death wasnt your fault. It was the fault of that idiot for ssing things up and ends up dying

But! Reid-sama was

Gufu

I who was treated like an idiot by Maria, was secretly coughing behind Finia while I listen. However, this is not a really good place for to act strange while holding my mouth.

That idiot, in order to save and also in order to save Cortina, sacrificed his life. That was a decision he made during that situation and what he thought was necessary. Thats why there is no need for you to bla yourself over this

Still, because of

His death was the result of his own judgnt. To go against his judgnt and force your belief would be comparable to blasphemy by denying what he believed in

I also agree with what she was pointing out. There was no reason for Finia to bla herself. Probably because of the shock seeing soone dying before her, it ended up becoming a trauma and was haunting her making her bla herself.

Though I feel like a lot of beautifications were applied to filter the things that she believed in I really wanted to tell her that it was my own mistake, and that there is no need for her to be blad.

Please do you best to forgive yourself during this long journey

Was that the reason That you have assigned ?

There is also that included. But its because Nicole was the most at ease if its with you. You could also think of it as a sign of atonent for Reid, so please do try to do it

After telling her all of that, she gently hugged Finia. After clearing up all the tears after responding to the hug, we finally started our journey.
