Cheat Magician Life That Started From Being Judged Useless

Sumika Kizawa and Marianne

***---***

The day after I got in touch with the teachers, I first went to the guild.

At the beginning of the week, I asked Manon to help the girls find jobs and left it alone.

I think it's okay because they boys have caused such a turmoil, but I'm worried about leaving them unattended, so I decided to keep an eye on the situation, including the progress.

Even this morning, the front of the bulletin board is very crowded, and it seems that there are no girls who are willing to rush in there.

Yeah, Ridner and the others are still getting bashed around, but it can't be helped ...

At the wall away from the bulletin board, there were my female classmates.

There is also the appearance of the dekoboko sisters today, and Manon seems to be asked various questions at the center of everyone.

Light blue short hair stands out in a group of black hair.

I don't know what they're asking, but Manon, who is blushing and acting flustered, is cute and healing.

When Manon noticed me and waved her small hand, all the girls' eyes were directed at me all at once.

Hmm ... I think it's a little overwhelming to be looked at by more than a dozen girls all at once.

The girls turned around with a grinding sound, and when they saw me, they grinned broadly and leaving behind Manon who was in the center, they quickly separated to both sides.

Amongst them, there are people who beckon me, but it's hard to approach them.

"Good morning, Kent."

"Good morning ... Manon."

With warm eyes watching me as I approach awkwardly, girls' whispers are heard.

"A kiss, it's a good-morning kiss."

"Stupid, first hug, gyu, gyu ..."

No, no, being looked at with such expectancy, I'm not so bold as to be able to do that.

What is it Manon-chan? Why did you turn red and close your eyes?

No ... this is really ... it's great, it's great, the pressure is great.

I gently hugged Manon, who was shaking a little, and kissed her cheek.

"Huuuuu, it's so hot right away in the morning ..."

"I wonder why the morning of Volzard is so hot ... Hey!"

It's bad, it's really bad right away in the morning.

I hurriedly released the hug, but Manon was holding my shirt tightly and I couldn't leave.

Well, that kind of gesture is unfair, it makes me want to hug her again.

"Kent ... I don't smell Beatrice today ..."

"Yeah, yeah, I haven't seen her today."

"Yes, that's good ..."

"Well ... so what kind of work is everyone doing?"

I tried to switch the topic, but I got glared at by the dekoboko sisters.

"Why does Kokubu talk about something else ignoring the atmosphere right away ..."

"That's right, as Tomo-chan says, I wish they could hug more."

"No, everyone, you have to find a job ..."

I tried to switch the topic somehow, but this time I was scolded by Sagara-san and Motomiya-san from the other side.

"We can't find a job in that crowd yet, and Manon will take care of us, so it's okay."

"We're really grateful to Manon. She's worked so hard that we shouldn't rely on Manon anymore."

Manon explained the contents of the job in detail, and thanks to the guidance to the workplace, the introduction to the people at the workplace, and the explanation of the circumstances, everyone was able to experience the job smoothly.

"Now, Kokubu should just stay here and live happily with Manon."

"Oh yeah, it's exactly as Tomo-chan says."

Everyone nods to the words of the dekoboko sisters.

Manon is bright red and looks down, but I feel that her mouth is a bit sloppy and grinning.

"No, it hasn't been decided that we'll be able to go home yet, and I haven't finished rescuing everyone else ..."

"By the way, Kokubu-kun, are you flirting with Yuika?"

"Even though Manon is here, the worst, Kokubu, the worst!"

"No, because even the chairman is working so hard she collapses if left alone ... it hurts."

Sagara-san said something unnecessary, so I was struck in the flanks by Manon.

Anyhow, Manon-chan, when did you draw everyone to your side?

But for the time being, I was relieved that the girls here seemed to be working without problems, but after all the number of people is not enough.

"Well, by the way, what about the rest?"

As soon as they heard me, everyone's facial expressions clouded over.

"Ah ... it's bad for Kokubu, but Sumika and the others may not be ..."

"Yeah, horse riding was only for one day, and after that ..."

Sumika Kizawa's group was reluctant to clean the stables and brush the horses during the horse riding experience, and when the training for the day was over, they declared that they would no longer participate.

"Then what are they doing now?"

"They didn't get up when we left, and they were all gathering and talking, rigth?"

"I think they can't get up because it seems like they were gathering and talking until midnight yesterday."

"Will they cause a problem ...?"

"Oh, I think it's okay, because unlike Takayama and the others, they're good at conducting themselves."

According to Kobayashi-san, they don't complain or try to do anything unpleasant, but if someone tries to cause trouble, they have enough wisdom to keep a distance from the troublesome person and not deal with them.

"However, the impression of us may get worse ..."

Sakurai-san says that even if they don't do anything like the boys' uproar, their disgusting speech and attitude make people around them feel disgusted ...

With that said, I've met them face-to-face at the time of explanations several times, but they didn't have a very positive attitude.

"Okay, I'm going to talk to the garrison after this, so I'll take a look at them at that time. Everyone is doing what they can do."

"I'm counting on you, what are you going to talk about?"

"Maybe have everyone who remains help?"

Not only Sagara-san and Motomiya-san, but everyone else seems to be curious, so I briefly talked about my plan.

"My genus said that they will clean up the road and improve the road today, and I got in touch with the teachers, and it's going well for now. Maybe around noon on light day, I think I can rescue everyone else."

The girls were delightedly holding hands when they heard that the rescue operation was concretely underway.

"That's good ... I was worried about everyone who remained."

"Well, if the teachers come, shouldn't Kizawa and the others be left to them?"

"But if the teacher warns them in the current situation, isn't it likely that they will not listen?"

"Ah ... it might be ..."

Certainly, when we were in Japan, there was the backing of the authority of the school, but in this world, the teachers are also in the same situation as us, so if they pay attention to their poor skills, they may not listen.

While talking about such things, the front of the bulletin board began to clear, so all the girls went looking for today's job.

"Manon, thank you for taking care of everyone."

"Yeah, I can only do this much ..."

"That's not true, having you do it ... I'm really saved, thank you."

"If it helps Kent even a little ... I'm glad ..."

I loved Manon's shy smile and couldn't help but hug her softly.

"Manon ..."

"Kent ... e, everyone is watching ..."

"Eh ...?"

Everyone who should have gone looking for a job is back and surrounding us with broad grins.

That's why, the excited pressure is ...

"Kent ..."

"Kyaaa! Is it decided? Mou, did you pick Manon?"

"Well, what about that red-haired girl?"

"What about Yuika? What about Yuika?"

I succumbed to the pressure, I couldn't resist my personal desires, I hugged Manon again.

Naturally, all the girls got into a turmoil and Manon hugged me again, probably because she heard the names of Beatrice and the chairman.

"I won't lose ..."

It's dangerous, I want to abandon my classmates and escape somewhere with Manon.

"Kent ... you're busy today, right?"

"Y, yes ..."

"Do it quickly, then we can take our time ..."

"Yes ..."

Aah, how troublesome, should I just abandon them after all ...?

"Hey, Kokubu ... I want you to release Manon soon ..."

"Tomo-chan, that's not romantic."

"But At-chan, we can't do anything without Manon ..."

"That's right ..."

Manon lifted her body a little and stared me in the eyes as she released her arms and shook off her regrettable feelings.

"Then, Kent, I'm going."

"Yeah, I'm counting on you."

With a bouncy step, Manon walked to all the girls.

All the girls surrounded Manon and made a fuss with 'Kya Kya' and sent me warm looks.

Yeah, it kind of feels like the obstacles are being removed.

The group that is looking for a job in the guild seems to be okay, so let's take a look at Kizawa's group while going to talk with the garrison.

The chairman said that if I said it directly, it would be more troublesome, but there are some things I have to say.

That's why I visited the dormitory, but I didn't get a reply when I called out.

I peeped from the shadow world to see if they were still asleep, but I couldn't see them in the dormitory.

And when I went to the cafeteria, I heard a clamor.

"We're cooking for everyone in the squad, not for you. What are you talking about this time around?"

"What with that! The service is so bad even though we're paying for food and board ..."

"We're not an inn, we just accepted you because you didn't have a place to go, if you don't like it, then leave."

"What's with that! The money was paid, don't joke around, make a quick meal!"

Apparently, Sumika Kizawa's group who overslept was not in time for breakfast.

The garrison's cafeteria has breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

It will be flexible if it is the last minute, but it seems that the kitchen has been cleaned up because it has been quite a while since breakfast time was over.

I thought it would be awkward if I didn't mediate, and when I tried to step into the cafeteria, I heard a voice from behind.

"It's noisy, what's wrong?"

Red-haired ears jumped into my sight when I turned around.

It was Marianne-san, the captain of the garrison, dressed tightly in her garrison uniform.

"Good morning, Marianne-san."

"Good morning Kent. So what's the fuss about here?"

"Um ... I just got here, so I don't know the details ..."

Sumika Kizawa has an overtly dissatisfied face.

"Hey Kokubu, they won't prepare a meal, what's going on?"

"It's not good treatment ..."

"They're not properly prepared, they're seriously useless ..."

Wow ... I hate it if they think this is the standard of our world.

You're sullenly distorting your mouth, do you know how ugly your face looks.

"Manuela, what's going on?"

At the request of Marianne-san, the lady in the cafeteria explained that breakfast time had alread ended and that the kitchen had already been cleaned up.

"I haven't heard about the time limit ..."

"Yeah, we're paying for it."

No, you say you're paying for it, but I'm the one paying for it.

"Okay, if you haven't heard about the meal time, it can't be helped. Manuela, make something to tide them over until noon."

"I understand ..."

"I'm sorry to bother you."

Manuela looks reluctant, but she started preparing meals for Kizawa's group.

I apologized involuntarily, but Sumika Kizawa and the others take it for granted.

"Oba-san, you're hard to talk to ..."

"Hey, Marianne-san is the captain of the garrison and the wife of the lord Klaus-san, so don't be rude."

"Hmm ... is that right ..."

Oh, I understand what Sakurai-san meant.

This attitude is no good.

"By the way, Kent-san, not everyone is here. What happened to everyone else?"

"Oh, yes, they're looking for a job in the guild."

"Oh, is that so. So what about you guys?"

"Um ... that ..."

The members of Kizawa's group, who were grinning when they knew that they would have a meal, became moody and ugly as soon as work was mentioned.

"Why do we have to work ..."

"Oh yeah, we're just victims who were involved ..."

"Well, Kokubu can go anywhere, right? He can bring money from their safes."

"Oh yeah, it's such terrible treatment, so spend more money ..."

I can't help but want to hit them, and I'm embarrased to have them show such an abomination in front of Marianne-san.

Marianne-san isn't bothered or angry, and she keeps her calm while listening.

"Now, it looks like the meal is ready, so let's continue while eating. Manuela, can I ask for tea for Kent and myself?"

For me, since the turmoil has subsided, so I'm full of the feeling of wanting to leave, but I can't really leave it to Marianne-san.

Kizawa's group sat facing each other at the long table in the dining room, and Marianne-san and I sat facing each other at the very end.

"Kent-san, is the rescue operation going well?"

"Yes, I have a request for that ..."

It was the right time, so I asked if I could rent some carriages.

"That's an easy request, is tomorrow okay? Even so, even if it's your genus, to have a monster pull it ..."

"Yes, at first I thought I would select from my classmates, form a rescue team, and come back with a carriage I stole ..."

Marianne-san nodded greatly and agreed with me when I explained that we were not accustomed to handling horses, and it would take time to prepare the carriages, and that if it was the genus, they could move to Lastock at once by moving in the shadows.

"In addition, the knights of Resenburg will be put to sleep for the time being, but if they participate, they may run into danger, so I decided not to use my classmates."

"I see, but when I hear your story, isn't it only Kent-san having a hard time?"

"Hmm ... but I happen to have the power, so I wonder if it can't be helped ..."

Kizawa's group also seems to be worried about the rescue operation, and they seem to be listening while glancing at me.

"I mean, if you have that ability, come to help sooner."

"Oh yeah, he was playing and flirting with a woman."

"Well, he also peeped into Lastock's women's bath, this trash!"

"He's also put his hands on Asakawa, he's trash ..."

I don't know if it's because they're saying it in front of Marianne-san, of if it's because I'm being looked down on as a person, but my fist held under the table trembles when they say whatever they want to.

"Ufufufu, Ara ara, Kent-san that seems to be some severe criticism, would everyone be okay if Kent-san left?"(TN:Apparently Marianne is an 'Ara ara' Onee-san, if you don't know what this means, google it!)

Sumika Kizawa and her friends responded to Marianne-san's words, which were released in a relaxed manner, with the feeling of a piercing breeze.

I have no intention of going anywhere, and it seems that such a thing will not happen, but noone is willing to give an answer.

"I don't know about your world, so I think about things by Volzard's standards. You know that Kent-san is now important to Volzard, right?"

All the members of Kizawa's group nodded at Marianne-san's question.

"Being important means that you have talent and you can live without any problems, even if you are not in Volzard."

Marianne-san once again spoke sharply and looked around the people lined up.

"In other words, Kent-san will not be inconvenienced if he abandons you and disappears, but on the contrary, if Kent-san disappears ... Will you be okay?"

The seven gazes gathered at the tall girl who seemed to be the most courageous, so she must be Sumika Kizawa.

Yeah, the style is ... modest.(TN:Style is usually referring to body type, so I guess she's got a rather small ... chest)

"Well, I can't forgive him ..."

"Well, because of Kent-san's personality, he wouldn't abandon you. But you never know when humans will die. One of your friends died, right?"

Marianne-san is probably talking about Funayama whome she must have heard about from someone.

Kizawa and her colleagues were silent when confronted with the fact that there was a classmate who actually died.

"Kent-san has powerful genus as bodyguards, so his life won't be at much risk. But that doesn't mean he's absolutely safe, 'you'll never die, you won't be gone' ... there is no such guarantee."

The eight people have a subtle expression that seems to be a mixture of dissatisfaction and anxiety.

"I think it's only natural that you're furstrated when you suddenly fall into a situation you don't want, but you're not prepared right now."

"Are you telling us that to make us work too?"

When Sumika Kizawa asked with a pursed mouth in dissatisfaction, Marianne-san smiled and answered.

"I'm not only telling you to work. You should get ready to be independent ..."

Marianne-san once again began to talk about the situation of people our age in the city of Volzard.

"In Volzard, when you reach the age of all of you, you start to become independent from your parents. Whether you work or continue to study, you decide on your own will and start your own path. Some people get married, have a house, and have children at the same age as you."

"But ... we're not people from here ..."

"Well, it may be a little different from the world you were in, but when will you be able to return to your original world?"

"That is ... Kokubu, when is it?"

"If I rescue everyone, start negotiations right away, and get working on it right away, it's about a week ... but it's unclear because there are so many things I don't understand at all ..."

Marianne-san started to talk after nodding a few times.

"If you can get back to your original world right away, you don't have to work hard. But if you don't know when you can go back, and if it takes a long time to get back, the chances of something unexpected happening will increase, that's how it is. It's also necessary to think about Kent-san's disappearance. Isn't it better to be prepared when you have to live on your own rather than simply working?"

"That doesn't mean that everyone is gone just because Kokubu is gone ..."

While saying that, Sumika Kizawa turns her gaze toward the other girls, and the side to which she looks nods awkwardly.

"Now, Volzard is preparing for a maximal outbreak of monsters. A maximal outbreak is a situation where thousands or tens of thousands of monsters are rushing in, which caused great damage in the past. Currently, we are working on the construction of the walls and shelters, and since Kent-san is also here, it may not be as damaging as it used to be, but how would it be if a horde of monsters larger than we imagine attacked? I don't know if people will survive. If you survive in such a situation, will you be okay? There may be nobody to rely on."

What Marianne-san is saying is not a threat or anything, but the reality of Volzard.

For those of us who lived in peaceful Japan, it's easy to think that such a stupid thing won't happen, but at the time we came to Volzard, we were actually attacked by monsters, and we can't deny it with a laugh.

"From my point of view, Kent-san seems to be working very hard, but from the point of view of all of you, you may be full of dissatisfaction. But the situation of relying on one person is very fragile and dangerous. Yeah, learn how to live calmly even if that person is gone."

Saying that, Marianne-san stood up.

"If you don't know what to do, you can always ask the garrison. Now, Kent-san aren't you still busy?"

"Oh, yes, yes, I still have a lot of preparations ..."

I decided to leave the cafeteria with being thrown a lifeline by Marianne-san.

Sumika Kizawa and the others have been to consult with each other noisily, but it seems that they are not just complaining like before.

When I left the cafeteria, I thanked Marianne-san.

"That ... Thank you, Marianne-san."

"Oh, it's natural to guide younger people. In Volzard, we don't waste the resources we can use."

That's right, human resources are valuable in the farthest city Volzard.

"By the way, Kent-san, are you going to accept my daughter?"

"Huh? Um ... that's ..."

"Ara, that Rise, it looks like she's not pushing hard enough ..."

"No, no, the push is too strong, and I'm in trouble with envy from various places ..."

"Isn't that because Kent-san isn't clear?"

"Guu ... that's right ..."

"Kent-san ..."

Marianne-san, who suddenly put on a serious expression, and I quickly correct my posture.

"Yes, what?"

"Polygamy is allowed in Landshelt."

"N, no ... that is ..."

"If you can't decide, declare that you'll take them all."

"Eeeh ... Marianne-san, you're saying ..."

Marianne-san smiled at me and left while waving her hand.

Since I came to Volzard I've heard from several people, but now I know that the reason why the lord Klaus-san doesn't have an affair or want his daughter to be part of a harem is because Marianne-san is scary.
