Chapter 34: The school dormitory is as comfortable as a luxury inn

We buy miscellaneous goods and food then head to the school.

First of all, we went to say hello to my homeroom teacher and asked him to tell me my dorm room number.

Room 1 on the 4th floor. Room 401, the corner room on the top floor is sunny.

The dormitory was a four-story building with brick exterior walls and is quite large.

“For crime prevention, only people with a duke rank or higher are allowed to enter the 4th floor. Currently, only Luke is on the 4th floor of the men’s dormitory. Next year, there will be two duke family members.”

“Well, then this year It’s my charter.”

“I?”

“Oh, that’s … I was disciplined by my mother to say ” I ” when I was little, but I decided to stop since I’ve left the country.”

{TN: It doesn’t come through in the translation but Luke usually refers to himself in a high handed manner, but here he refers to himself the way he does in Japan, basically boku (normal) and ore (high handed)}

“That’s right … I was a little surprised because you suddenly said ‘I was’.”

“Is it strange? Does it sound odd?”

“That’s not the case, but I feel that ‘I’ is cute …”

“I” seems to be better received by Iris than the high-pressure “I”, but many aristocrats take advantage of you as soon as you show your weaknesses.

I don’t like being feared when I say “I”.

“Let’s go inside then! Iris was on the 3rd floor last year, right?”

“Yes. There are counts and marquis on the 3rd floor. The room is smaller than the 4th floor, but It’s quite comfortable with a room for servants.”

There are 4 dormitories in total.

・General men’s and women’s dormitories: 4 stories (all rooms are double rooms)

(Bath / toilet shared. There is a partition by curtain)

・Men’s and women’s dormitories for aristocrats: 4 stories (all rooms are private rooms)

1st and 2nd floors: Viscounts, Barons, Baronests enter

(Bath / toilet shared)

3rd floor: Count and Marquis enter

There is a room of about 10 tatami mats, and a valet room of about 6 tatami mats is attached as an inner room.

(Small but equipped with bath and toilet)

4th floor: Enters the royal family and the dukes

There’s a room of about 20 tatami mats, and a valet room of about 8 tatami mats is attached as an inner room.

(There’s a bath that can accommodate about 4 people, and there’s also a toilet)

“Hah, huh … hah … the first floor is better …”

“Luke must lose weight. Just climbing the stairs makes you short of breath … you need more exercise.”

Of course I’ll go on a diet, but I’m a little depressed when I think I’ll have to use this staircase every day … “Is there an elevator? I want to say.

I entered the room, but … it’s large! And it’s beautiful!

The furniture is only a bed and a study desk, so it looks even more spacious.

“It’s amazing … there’s a toilet on the 4th floor.”

“You don’t build toilets or baths upstairs in the Kingdom of Wolg, right?”

“The bath can also be on higher floors, but it’s usually built on the first floor … because we need equipment for drainage.”

I check the equipment in the room, apply [clean] to the entire room, and then arrange what I bought.

“The kitchen is small but well equipped. Does this faucet also produce hot water?”

“Yes. It’s a magic tool that can adjust the temperature as well as the one in the bath. It’s necessary to replace the magic stone that’s the core on a regular basis, but it doesn’t cost much because it’s a scrap magic stone. There’s a warehouse, but it’s not much. It’s a pity that we don’t have magic tools in the oven. “

After arranging everything we bought, Iris immediately made tea for me.

“Thank you Iris. You’re tired, you can rest in your the room.”

“Yes. Thank you. If you have any requests, please ring this bell.”

I was handed a silver bell. It’s a high-priced Mithril product …

“Okay, by the way, the homeroom teacher said we didn’t have to attend tomorrow.”

“Yes. It seems that tomorrow will be a test holiday. Would you like to see Emilia tomorrow?”

Hmm … I’m not uninterested in my fiancée, but I don’t want to go and meet her right now.

“Contact her maid and tell her that we’ve arrived. Even if we’re engaged, why should the prince of a great power go to the daughter of a lower duke’s family? It’s basic etiquette. However, it would be a good idea for the other side to visit. “

“Excuse me! Well … it’s good manners for her to come see you.”

“I said that, but I don’t think she’ll come to see me with her androphobia. Tell her she doesn’t have to act so formally cause we’ll see in class the day after tomorrow.”

“… I’m surprised. Luke is a person who can think about the other person properly. Rumors are really sloppy …”

“My rumors were pretty true. I want to go to the temple tomorrow morning, is that okay?”

“The temple is it? Yes, I’ll be ready”.

“No, you don’t have to come. I’ll go alone.”

“That’s no good. I was told by the Duke to act with you for a while.”

“While the school is off, I’m planning to do something else. It’s not like you don’t have a day off. You should do whatever you want on holidays.”

“I believe in Luke but I was told by the Duke that Luke may run away, so keep an eye on him for the time being. If Luke runs away, I’ll do it, I’ll take responsibility … so please let us act together for a while. “

What a mess … If I can’t shake her, I can’t raise my level.

If I’m exposed to the duke or the king who see me only as a breeding horse, I won’t be able to raise my level with the danger of having to defeat demon beasts.

To Iris, who is always by my side, I may have no choice but to talk about the evil god to some extent and have her tell no one in the name of the goddess …
