Chapter 66: Gathering gazes
“By the way, is it among the three of them over there?”
Upon being comforted by Christille and thinking it’s a benefit, Michela’s brow furrows immediately in response to Flura’s words.
“Flura. Didn’t I tell you during the match that such a possibility is absolutely impossible?”
“Well, yes, but I’ve never seen Michela-san having so much fun before.”
“Having fun? I find it much more enjoyable when I’m with Christille-neesama.”
“…Perhaps. I might have chosen my words poorly. It seemed like you were talking freely without holding anything back.”
“There’s no need to wear the guise of a young lady; we can talk as fellow female students and share our emotions…” Flura’s eyes shifted in that direction.

“Well… I’m not so sure about that. If anything, I feel like I’m the one who’s freely spoken to without restraint.’
“What’s the point then? Should I escort you like a pseudo-gentleman? Or should I spout cheesy lines like those two-faced handsome guys with smooth tongues?”
“…Just imagining it makes me feel sick.”
“Yeah, I thought so.”
Originally, Ishud, just as he had complimented Christille’s dress earlier, wasn’t incapable of giving compliments to women.
“The three of you… Ishud-san, what do you think of Michela-san?”
“Annoying big-boobed blonde with vertical rolls.”
“You mean, a nagging peasant woman?”
“Who’s your mother?! Ishud, at least refrain from using such terms in this kind of situation!”
“Aww, then, a damn troublesome young lady.”
“Ughhhh!!!”
Ad
Michela couldn’t contain her frustration.
(…Probably. Rather, undoubtedly, this is the type of man Michela has encountered for the first time.)
For now, she felt his language was vulgar.
It’s not that she couldn’t appreciate someone who was straightforward and unpretentious, but vulgarity was still vulgarity.
“Um… someone with fearless strength, I guess.”
Gulf, one of the three, especially didn’t bother to embellish his words and described Michela in his own way.
(If this is the rumored commoner… Is it possible that he gives more polite answers than the two noble young men?)
Initially, Flura wasn’t the type to look down on someone just because they were a commoner.
However, she couldn’t help but strongly feel that the words used to describe Michela were somewhat off.
“Hahaha! That’s right. Even though she got knocked down flat by me in a fight, she came to me later and asked to join the training sessions I had with Gulf and the others. Whether in that fight or elsewhere, she’s got more guts than your average guy.”
Ad
“I… I’ll definitely cut him down next time.”
“Then I’ll spar with you using my twin swords, so do your best.”
Feeling lightly taunted as she had indeed been knocked down in a fight, Michela couldn’t retort at all.
(I suppose she acknowledges what she lacks. I watched the special match too, and he’s definitely not just a brute… he possesses skills that go beyond being called a barbarian or a berserker. Considering how Michela-san, Philippe-san, and Gulf-san have grown under his guidance… I really can’t call him a barbarian.)
In the end, Flura couldn’t figure out who was closest to Michela.
By the way, at this moment, Oness Threeshi, a classmate who had a crush on Michela from a distance, was directing jealous glares at the three of them from afar… but with the crowd around them being too dense, he couldn’t even approach them to interfere.
“““”!!!!!!!!””””
“Hm?”
The students in the venue directed their attention somewhere.
When they turned their faces to see who had arrived… there stood Dimna Kais.
Dimna scanned the venue, ignoring classmates who had come in with him… and headed towards Ishud and the others.
(It seems like he’s focusing his attention on Gulf, not me.)
Normally, he would step forward and confront Gulf with a face like “Who the hell are you? You wanna fight? If you do, I’ll crush that pretty face of yours.”
However, there was no sense of disdain from Dimna towards Gulf at the moment.
So instead of stepping forward to protect, he decided to watch from the sidelines while sipping wine, to see how things would unfold.
“Hey, Dimna. Are you okay now?”
“Yes, no problem, Dustin… commoner.”
“Uh, yeah.”
As there was only one commoner present in this place, Gulf naturally understood that he was the one being addressed, and his shoulders trembled.
“Your name is Gulf, right… Would you like to become our adopted son?”
“……………………….?”
Silence.
A conversation between the two parties involved in the double knockout match.
Regardless of who it was, the content of the conversation piqued everyone’s curiosity.
However, the words that escaped Dimna’s mouth were so unexpected that it took everyone some time to comprehend them.
(What’s this guy saying… Oh, I see, I see. So that’s the kind of thinking he has?)
Ishud could somewhat grasp Dimna’s mindset.
Given the unexpectedly unexpected content, Ishudo changed his plans and stood before Gulf.
“According to your thinking, Gulf should at least become a noble in appearance… Is that correct?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Ad
Dimna might be inclined to utter a line like “Looks like a beast from the frontier is joining the conversation,” but like Flura, Dimna and the others watched the special match between the three of them and Ishud from the spectator seats.
An entity that even the top students from each year combined couldn’t match.
Moreover, it was a victory achieved with complete restraint.
Regardless of refinement, language, or attitude… overpowering strength in every aspect.
As humans, they had to show respect for that strength.
“…I’m Gulf’s friend. But being his friend doesn’t mean I can dictate his life. Besides, trying to control someone else’s life is just plain crap.”
“…………”
“Gulf’s life is his own to decide. But… Dimna Kais. Even if Gulf were to choose the path you suggested, can you truly protect him?”
“Huh? What do you mean by that…”
He spoke the words, taking his time to digest their meaning.
Unlike Ferno Santarchi, another first-year student at Sambal Academy, this man wasn’t a real idiot.
