Cheat Magician Life That Started From Being Judged Useless

Detained teachers

***---***

The settlement negotiations with the Flamehounds ended before the evening.

There is still time before dinner time, so about the teachers being detained in Lastock.

I went to preview the facility.

In the next rescue operation, this is the first place I'll start, and if I take time here, there is a concern that the later schedule will be delayed.

The place where the teachers are detained is on the other side of the city of Lastock, as seen from the garrison.

The site is about the size of a school playground, and there is a two-story building that is about the size of a classroom and a warehouse that doubles as a stable, the rest is a vacant lot, and its seems that training is being conducted here.

There are six detained teachers, four men and two women, and all of them are middle-aged ojii-sans and obaa-sans, other than Furudate-sensei of science.

The teachers were being trained as scouts, regardless of knight type or mage type.

"Lower your posture more! Like this you can be completely seen!"

There are obstacles made of ropes and boards, and the scouting training amongst such obstacles is like the training of the army seen on TV.

"Idiot, don't show your face so carelessly! You and the brats will be annihilated together!"

The knights of Resenburg are training them by saying that when they go to battle, the teachers will lead the students through the forest.

Being told that the ability of the teachers as scouts is related to the life and death of the students, the teachers have no choice but to work hard even if they don't like it.

However, Basten has found that it is a lie to encourage the teachers to work hard on training, and they are actually intended to be used as decoys to walk in front of a professional scout.

They can survive if they can play the role of a scout, but they think that if they don't notice the approach of monsters, they will be the first to be sacrificed, thereby letting the original scout know the existence of the monsters.

There are three Resenburg knights at this facility, and it seems that they will return to the garrison at night, leaving only one in charge of the night shift.

The teachers seem to live on the second floor of the building, and there are private rooms that are little larger than my room at the boarding house, shared toilets, bathrooms, kitchens, etc. It seems that at night, the stairs that go up to the second floor are locked.

All the windows are fitted with iron bars, and if there is a fire in the middle of the night, they will be wiped out.

Even so, it seems a little careless to have just one night shift for six people, but they're told that if they escape, the students will be punished, so it seems the teachers haven't been able to plan an escape.

Besides, since they can't get out of the premises, they don't know the outside situation at all, and it seems that they cna't even make an escape plan.

It is convenient for me that they have poor security at night, so I will contact them before the operation and have them prepare.

During the rescue operation, the knight on night duty is put to sleep, the stairs are unlocked, and the small carriage that is pulled by Zae and the others is moved to the garrison, where they will join my classmates and move to Volzard.

The key to the stairs has been confirmed to be hung at the entrance of the room for the night shift, so the sleeping knight will be locked up on the second floor.

[ Even so ... it's kind of dirty and looks very messy ... ]

[ They aren't being treated very well, so it may be unavoidable. ]

It seems that the facilities for living are in place, but they have to cover water and fire by themselves.

It seems that magical power is poured through magical tools to make water, or to light a fire for cooking or heating a bath, but the magical power is empty due to being exhausted by training, and it is necessary to use the last dredges to cover the minimum amount of water of fire.

It seems that the limit of water ot fill the bathtub and the fire to heat it is once every few days.

[ Once every day, they're having trouble with water for washing, they can't cook well, and they're not being given any good ingredients. ]

[ I see ... ]

When we were in Japan, the teacher, Sato-sensei, seemed to be young with heavy makeup, but when I saw their face without makeup, they looked so old that I couldn't tell who they were.

The other teachers also looked quite old, to verying degrees.

The faces of all of them seemed to have lost their vitality, giving the impression that they were using up all of their energy.

I don't think this is useful, no matter how much you intend to make them disposable.

[ Fred, do they have any information about my classmates? ]

[ It doesn't seem they are told that. It seems that the matter of Funayama, the first five people, and the fifty people who all participated in the actual battle, they don't seem to have been told that they haven't returned. ]

[ Is that to prevent the teachers from being upset or become rebellious by bad news? ]

[ I think so, and they seem to avoid contact with the students as much as possible after this. ]

No matter how I can come in contact with the teachers, it's only the night when their is just one knight, so I'll ask Amanda-san to bring something with me.

I decided to go back to Volzard, report to Donovan-san, have supper, and then come back again.

Before returning to the guild, I went to the site of wall construction where my classmates were working.

As of this morning, Takayama and his friends, who had been rebellious, were also motivated as a result of Klaus-san's speech technique, but since the wall construction is hard work, I was worried that they weren't going to do it properly, but apparently my anxiety was unfounded.

While washing their hands and faces, they talked about their impressions of the day with Kondo and the others, who were in charge of the construction work and the garrison members who were supervising.

Well, fake glasses was vague as usual, but the old and new duo and Takayama also joined the circle, and I could feel a sense of unity.

I feel it's better not to show up here.

Looking at the facial expressions of the people in charge, it seems that today's work has been completed without any problems, and at this rate, I feel that it won't be long before everyone is accepted by the people of Volzard.

Kondo, the old and new duo, and Takayama are much better than me since they have the basic specs of being in athletic clubs, and if they work seriously, it's natural that they will be recognized.

It would be best if everyone could interact with the people in the city in a place where I wasn't around, but since I was the only one not participating, I felt a little alienated.

If you have a really narrow heart, you are likely to fall into self-loathing.

I regained my mind and moved to the guild to report to Donovan-san about the Flamehounds incident.

I explained step by step from the uproar in front of Amanda-san's shop to the settlement, but even Donovan-san couldn't hold back his laughter when I said I decorated 'Nyan' with a ribbon.

Yeah, I feel like it was the right choice.

"Well, then they're back to being a trio, right?"

"Yes, I think so."

"Okay, I'll have someone keep an eye on them ... Even so, the Orlando Store, huh ..."

"What is it, is something wrong ...?"

"Well, to put it simply, they are the type to spare no expense, so be careful ..."

"Even if you say so ..."

If there's a problem with the Orlando Store, it's definitely due to my relationship with Beatrice, and I'm not the one doing anything, so it's out of my hands.

"Hmm, the mischief of a woman, is cleaned up by a man."

"Hmm ... I'm not used to this kind of thing ..."

"Kukuku, then you should study, otherwise, the people at the boarding house may be inconvenienced again."

"Oh ... I understand."

After all, I have to prevent Beatrice from approaching, kissing will cause troubles.

The next time we meet, I'll make sure to warn her properly.

Having reported to Donovan-san, I returned to the boarding house, talked to Amanda-san about the situation, and asked for something for me to deliver to the teachers.

"Seriously, what a terrible thing to do, I'll make something to the best of my ability."

"Thank you, but I don't think their bodies will accept it if they increase the amount too quickly ..."

"I understand, when it comes to cooking, leave it to me with a 'bang'."

"Yes, please."

I think I'll have a little more time before dinner, so I went to look at the training for everyone in my genus.

The destination where I went with Reinhardt as a landmark seems to be far behind the Devil's Forest.

[ Reinhardt, where is this? ]

[ It's about two days on foot to the south of the Devil's Forest. ]

[ By the way, what is the terrain around here? ]

[ You may have seen the map in Camilla's room, but the Devil's Forest stretches southward, extending from the steep mountains of the north to the cliffs of the south coast. ]

The map I saw in Camilla's room only showed the old Resenburg, which is now Resenburg and Landshelt, but it seems that the north is a steep mountainous area with icecaps and the south is the sea.

The Devil's Forest spreads over the entire land area that leads to another continent on the south side, and it is said that it was originally created by a large number of tree monster Trents from the neighboring continent.

The southern continent is said to be a continent controlled by demons, and it is believed that the mass outbreak of monsters comes from the southern continent.

[ Well, in other words, are we in the direction of a higher density of monsters? ]

[ That's right. ]

Since the level of an orc is no longer their opponent, it seems they have moved in search of stronger monsters in order to train cooperation in line with an actual battle.

It seems that even skilled adventurers will not set foot in this area, and the forest is a dense virgin forest, and there is no sign of people.

In the primeval forest, there is a place with no trees, about 30 meters in diameter.

Looking closely, it seems that it's not that it wasn't growing, but it is cut down from the roots, and it seems that this is a hunting ground.

From the depths of the forest, growls and the threatening roars or Art and the others was heard, and after a while, a dozen or so ogres appeared.

When Art and the others drove the ogres into the hunting ground, Tsuo jumped out of the shadows and wielded the Kukri knife, turning the ogres into pieces of meat in a blink of an eye.

While repeating these exercises, they have repeatedly strengthened with the magic stones they got, so the movement of Tsuo seems to hvae increased in speed and strength, and I can not keep up with the movement with my eyes.

Yeah, I'm confident that if everyone attacks me, I'll be killed instantly.

Art and the others also seem to be even stronger.

I would be in trouble if there was a different in ability, so I called Mart and the others to stengthen them, but of course I was careful not to lose their cuteness.

[ Kent-sama, I'm planning to train for cooperation until tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I'll teach Zae and the others how to handle carriages, and on dark day, I'll have everyone in place during the day. ]

[ Yeah, I see, then the day after tomorrow I'll be able to rent a garrison carriage. And I have to arrange sleeping pills. ]

[ The time of patrolling of the knights of Lastock and the knights on duty are also identified. There is no problem for now. ]

[ Three days later, be ready for the operation in perfect condition. ]

[ OK, leave it to me. ]

When I returned to the boarding house, it was just becoming dinner time, and Amanda-san made a pot of soup and a heap of sandwiches for me to deliver.

"Wow, thank you so much, please charge me later."

"It's fine, Kent has protected the city many times, this is a service."

"No, it's bad to have you do this, I'll pay it in addition to the boarding house fee."

"It's fine, a kid shouldn't hesitate!"

"But ... then I'll buy something next time, like cookies and cakes."

"Cookies! I like the cookies of the Mesudori Pavilion!"

As soon as she heard the word 'cookie', Meisa-chan responded.

If Meisa-chan had a tail, it would be swinging around.

"Yes, yes, the Mesudori Pavilion's cookies, I understand."

"By the way, what happened with Kent and the thugs?"

"Yes, I've talked about it with them, so the Flamehounds guys shouldn't come around for now."

"Was the ribbon from before useful?"

"Yes, of course."

Explaining the series of exchanges with the Flamehounds, including how I used the ribbon, Amanda-san laughed, Meline-san held her mouth and her shoulders shook, and Meisa-chan showed a subtle expression.

Maybe she wasn't convinced by how the beautiful ribbon she wanted was used.

After dinner, I washed my sweat briefly and changed my clothes before heading to the chairman's care.

I haven't met Manon or Beatrice today, but I can't smell like sweat.

"Kent, did you get along with other girls before you came here?"

"I didn't, I didn't hug or kiss anyone today."

"Then why do you smell like soap today?"

"Today, I was moving around and sweating, so I came after taking a bath so that I wouldn't smell like sweat."

The chairman seems to be finally convinced after staring me in the eyes.

Yeah, it's all because of my bad behavior.

"I'm sorry to doubt ..."

"Yeah, when I look back on myself, I wonder if I can't help being suspected ..."

"Uuh, really, it's a disqualification for a boyfriend to come to see a girl while smelling like two other girls ..."

"A boyfriend ...?"

When I asked a question, the chairman kissed me on my cheek.

"We kissed so much, but is it different ...?"

"Um ... that is ..."

"Hmm ... You'll have to face it directly at Volzard."

"No ... that's that ..."

"It's okay, I'll be at Volzard in four days."

"Oh, that's right ..."

"I won't lose ..."

Until Erna came back, the chairman put her head on my shoulder and hugged me tightly.

Leaving the chairman's room, this time I headed to the building where the teachers were detained.

Surprisingly, the knight in charge of the night shift brought a bottle of liquor and drank liquor while playing a board game like chess.

If I was to wait for him to fall asleep by himself, it would take a long time, so I gave him a sleeping pill and he was out right away.

After confirming that the knight in charge of the night shift had fallen asleep, I moved to the second floor where the teachers were.

On the second floor, there are only a few small nightlights, and if you don't have good night vision, it looks pretty dim.

It seems that the teachers who have nothing to do and are exhausted from the daytime training are already sleeping.

I knocked the Sato-sensei's room, which was checked by Basten.

"Sensei, Sato-sensei, are you awake ..."

I knocked on the door and called out, but I didn't get an immediate reply.

"Sensei ... Sato-sensei ..."

"Who ... what is it at this time?"

"Sensei, it's Kokubu, I brought a delivery."

As soon as I gave my name, the door opened with great momentum.

"Kokubu-kun ... you were safe ..."

"Se, sensei, it's painful ..."

"Oh, I'm sorry ... eh, but you, how ... no way ... a ghost ..."

"It's okay, I have legs, so see ..."

I asked Sato-sensei to wake up the other teachers and have them gather in the common space.

It seems that the information of the classmates was not given, but it was said that I had gone into the Devil's Forest alone and was already prey to monsters.

As I showed up, not only Sato-sensei, but also the other teachers were confused that I was alive and well, and suspected that I was a ghost.

They warmed the soup I put in the shadow space and ate it with a sandwich, but it seems that it's been a while since they've eaten a properly cooked soup, and Chisaki-sensei of the social studies department was crying happily.

When the teachers talked about the food and enjoyed themselves, I talked about the situation so far and the rescue operation.

When I told them that Funayama died, after all of them became silent, they seemed sad, angry, and outraged.

"So, three days later, I think it will be about this time, but I will come to pick up the teachers. After that, we will move to the garrison where the rest of my classmates are, and we will all head for Volzard."

"Are we walking? Isn't it faster to steal a carriage?"

"To move, I have a carriage pulled by my undead lizardmen."

"Are you pulling it with a monster instead of a horse?"

"Yes, with a horse, you need to connect them to the carriage, and you have to give instructions to operate it, but with my genus, they can prepare themselves to pull the carriage, and you don't have to give detailed instructions."

I introduced Zae on behalf of everyone so that they wouldn't be surprised on the day of the rescue, but everyone was surprised and sat down.

"I am called Zae, a genus of Kent-sama, pleased to make your acquaintance ..."

Hearing Zae speak fluently and do the knight's salute, the teachers finally seemed to be relieved.

By the way, I asked Basten and Mirt to also come out and introduced them.

"I will give the teachers a class-specific list of my classmates remaining in Lastock's garrison on the day, so please make a roll call to your homeroom class."

"How many carriages do you have?"

"I'm planning on using five."

"Can you add another one?"

"Another one ... Hmm ..."

Kato-sensei of Health and Physical Education tells me to increase the number of carriages because our grade is six classes.

Of course, if you try to put six classes on five carriages, one class or all classes will have to board separately, which can be confusing.

If you want to put six classes on six carriages, you can allocate a carriage for each class, so there is less confusion.

"It would be impossible to pull only one with a horse, so I would have to select someone from Art and the others to pull it ..."

[ Kent, Should I pull it? ]

"Basten, is it okay ...?"

[ I couldn't do it while I was alive, but now there will be no problem. ]

"Okay, I'll think about it with Reinhardt and the others after returning. Kato-sensei, please put it on hold for a moment."

"If it's difficult to prepare six carriages, I'll divide my class and spread them around, so please consult me."

"Yes, I'll be counting on you for that time."

The first thing to do after rescuing the teachers is to get all the classmates together, even though they are far apart.

When I rescued fifty people, Resenburg was the one who formed the two groups, so they were able to act as they were.

However, in this case, without such a configuration, the number of people will increase further, so I felt that it is likely that it will take time to act together.

Therefore, I decided to have the teachers take the leading role in each class.

"Then I think I'll come back to you by the time of the decision, so be prepared and don't get caught."

"Leave it to us with a 'bang'!"

When the youngest teacher, Furudate-sensei, hit his chest and laughed, the other teachers also smiled.

But I don't think that's the case ...

"Furudate-sensei, please do not have such a cheerful face as now. If the teacher who was dying until yesterday suddenly becomes cheerful, they will definitely be suspicious."

"Uuh ... that's true, then ... Kokubu, please help us soon ... Is it like this?"

Furudate-sensei acted with a feeling of dying, but it was quite comical and he was laughed at by the other teachers.

For the time being, I promised to contact them by the day of the operation and returned to Volzard.

Now, I feel like everything is in the works.
