Chapter 56: Fifth Episode – Holidays, Plans for the summer holidays
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“You guys, what are you doing on holidays?”
One day shortly before the summer vacations, Rod-sama asked in the Order of the Academy meeting room.
“See, we acquired free vacation ticket during the academy festival before? We haven’t considered how to use it yet”
It’s been a while so some may have forgotten, but the Order of the Academy’s gender-reversal café “Cavalier” ranked first in the popularity contest during the festival.
What Rod-sama is talking about is the prize we acquired at that time.
“I’m… planning to return home, so I won’t use that ticket”
Misha stated indifferently.
“I am planning to use a summer retreat in my territory, that being the case I will not make use of the ticket”
Seems Claire-sama also won’t use it.
“Rei, you… I don’t even need to ask, huh”
“Yeah. I will accompany Claire-sama”
As Rod-sama said, there’s no point in asking.
Where Claire-sama goes, so do I.
In Revolution, you can participate in a special event using the ticket, although it was the way to see a special CG, going there doesn’t make sense if it would separate me from Claire-sama.
The holidays are a time when I can fully enjoy Claire-sama in various ways.
“Then, even if we use it will only be the three of us”
“It’s not interesting”
“…”
Rod-sama said uninterestedly, Yuu-sama shrugged his shoulders, and Sein-sama’s face said he couldn’t care less.
“Holidays with us three…”
“Should you not invite some people. There are no nobles who would refuse invitation from royalty?”
“That might be the case, but who we talk to causes various political complications…”
Well, yeah.
Hearing from royalty has worth by itself.
Although it’s not to the point of the throne succession conflict, power struggles and factional disputes are the fate of nobility.
Who was invited, who wasn’t, for sure there must be various troubles.
Well, not that it matters to me.
“Oh well. By the way, you haven’t forgotten about the obligation of the academy students during holidays?”
Rod-sama asked to confirm.
“Obligation… was it?”
It didn’t quite click with me.
“Hey, Rei. Have you forgotten? How disappointing of my servant…”
Deplorable, was what Claire-sama’s appearance of shaking her head said.
“The obligation of the Undead Hunt, Rei”
With Misha’s explanation, I finally remembered.
I touched on it a little before, but the Undead Hunt is an annual summer event in the academy – its official name being “Undead Sendoff”.
In this world undead monsters appear come summer.
The academy students have an obligation to exterminate a certain number of them to contribute to society.
With the normal course of events in the game a report comes about a group of undead appearing on the outskirts of the Royal Capital and there’s a need to exterminate it, but so far there’s absolutely no news of that.
Or rather, they won’t come.
I’ll make it so.
I’ll talk about it on another opportunity.
“What Claire. You look unhappy?”
“I do not like it being called Undead Hunt. It does not have enough sympathy for those who have passed away”
Claire-sama is too serious in strange aspects.
It’s a value system impossible for the me from Earth who’s used to science, but my evaluation of Claire-sama rose again.
“Even if you say that, does Undead Sendoff sound bad? Lately, only church people call it that”
“That might be so, but… Rei, do something”
“Eeeh… Passing it to me…”
Be that as it may, it’s a rare occasion of Claire-sama relying on me.
I want to meet her expectations.
“How about we call it Oubon?”
“What kind of idea is that?”
“I tried basing it on the festival from my hometown”
“That will not spread among people. It is rejected”
As expected, distorting Obon’s name won’t work.
Then――.
“How about shortening it to simply Sendoff?”
“Ara. That does not sound bad?”
“Even if we use an awkward new expression, once we stop that’s over for it, but if we modify an existing one, it will spread”
It appears Claire-sama and Rod-sama have no objections.
And so, among us we switched from calling it Undead Hunt to Sendoff.
“Well, in any case. I think you guys from the Order of the Academy won’t fall behind the opponents, nevertheless negligence can be fatal. Keep your focus during Sendoff, okay?”
“That goes without saying. I would not suffer an embarrassing defeat against undead”
Fufun, Claire-sama showed a fearless smile.
However――.
“But, Claire-sama, weren’t you bad with ghosts?”
“Those are not ghosts! Those are undead!”
Claire-sama retorted to cover up.
Based on her dismay, I think she’s not good with them in various ways.
Yes, such an aspect is also extremely cute.
“Rei, I entrust Claire to you”
“Please leave her to me”
“Hey, Rod-sama, what did you mean by that!? For me undead are truly――!”
“Then, would you like to hear a ghost story?”
The one who impishly interrupted Claire-sama was Yuu-sama.
“A long time ago, a young priest was excommunicated from the Church――”
“Come to think of it! Where is your home, Misha?”
Claire-sama forcibly changed the topic to cut off Yuu-sama.
Yuu-sama giggled.
Sly fox.
I’m the only one who can play with Claire-sama.
“It’s in Euclid. It’s a port city located south of the Royal Capital. Rei is also from the same town”
“Ara, what a coincidence. François house vacation villa is also in Euclid?”
Actually, it’s not a coincidence.
Because Misha is the protagonist’s childhood friend, Misha’s and hers hometown is the same.
So that the protagonist gets harassed by Claire-sama should she choose to go back home for the holidays, François house’s vacation villa is located in the same town.
In other words, it’s thanks to the game circumstances.
“Then, go by François house’s carriage. There is no problem if we take one more person”
“No, I’m sorry”
“What was that? You will not board my carriage?”
I don’t understand Claire-sama’s complaint well.
I’m not sure if it’s her kindness or maliciousness.
Well, she can’t just honestly say she wants to go together.
“Somehow it sounds interesting. Shall we also go to Euclid?”
“We can’t, Rod-niisan. Euclid is too far”
“… We have official duties”
Princes can’t go too far from the capital.
“Tsk, boring!”
Rod-sama complained childishly.
For me, it’s a chance to have my fill of Claire-sama without being hindered by the princes, it’s a wish come true.
“Well, can’t be helped. While enjoying holidays, let’s also exterminate undead. Again, don’t let your guard down, okay?”
With Rod-sama’s concluding words, the meeting adjourned for the day.
We dispersed in small groups.
“Claire-sama”
“What is it, Rei?”
I received Claire-sama’s stuff and smiled satisfiedly.
“Let’s enjoy the holidays!”
“… I wonder why… I only have an unpleasant premonition”
When I took a sidelong glance at Claire-sama shivering as if she felt chills, my heart already became agitated.
