Tenkomori: The Homecoming Club Conquers Another World

Chapter 80.3 - The First Year at the Academy - Contract for Protection (3)

Despite all of this, the 2ond semester exam went off without a hitch.

Lambert and the others were patting their chests as they seemed to have a good score, and I'm doing fine on my own. Except for dance.

And the academy went on an exam break, but I was holed up in a room at the academy.

Watching with bated breath were Luckendale and Cody.

I put the round-bottomed flask from the fire and invoked [Create Solution].

I confirm its completion with [Appraisal] and exhales.

Okay, that's it.

I was mixing up an alchemical solution.

I can do it at home, and I usually do, but in the middle of the 2nd-semester exam,

"You haven't been coming to me lately."

And he kept wiggling next to me.

I had no choice but to work on it here because if I left it unattended, he might come to my house.

I'm sure they'll calm down a little.

"You make it so easy, by the way. High quality. Have you improved your skills again?"

"I'm trying out a lot more potions than before."

As he responded, he transferred the alchemical solution into a vial.

Rackendale looks at the vials lined up.

"This should be enough. Why don't you start already?"

"I've already started. That's for the exchange. They're cheap rings and daggers, but the materials are soaked in a basin of solution."

"Don't think it's good to start with the cheap stuff. There are a lot of mistakes. When the time comes, buy a special container. You won't be able to fit your armor in a washbasin."

"Yes, that's right. Eventually."

I was starting to get ready to learn to [Create Magic Tools].

For now, I bring home inexpensive trinkets and weapons I get from outside and soak them in an alchemical solution.

I think I was right to keep tanning leather as a hobby. The upstairs is already full of troughs.

Now that my business is done, I'm off to give Rackendale and Cody some free time.

I told Rackendale and Cody I was free and left the room.

I left the room.

I walked down the empty hallway and looked up at the weak sunlight through the window.

It was around noon.

It was too late to go outside. Maybe I should go to the stalls and look for materials for magical tools.

As I left the school building with these thoughts in mind, I saw a familiar figure walking through the main gate.

The person notices me and is surprised.

"How unusual, on your day off."

Lola greeted me back with a slurred greeting.

You've always been a little suspicious, but today you're acting strange. It's as if she's feeling bad about the situation.

Well, in that case, I won't pry.

I simply said my goodbyes and walked past him.

But right after that, Lola stopped me and said, "Um!".

I turned around, but she was silent.

It wasn't an auditory hallucination–wasn't it?

"What is it? You'll never know if you keep quiet."

"Oh, uh, …… could you please …… take a moment?"

Lola muttered in a fading voice.

I had no particular plans or reason to refuse. I agreed, and we moved off the road to the side of the outer wall. No matter how few people

I wasn't sure how many people were coming in and out of the house.

"You've got business with someone, don't you? Are you okay there?"

If she wanted to see me. She would have come to my house.

If so, her first reaction was strange.

"Yes. I'm fine now."

"I see. Well, that's good."

More and more, I don't know. It just seemed like something I was involved in.

Lola continued to look down and worry about this and that, but then she suddenly looked up and opened her mouth.

"Actually – I learned [Mixing 1] the other day."

"Congratulations on that. That's pretty fast."

"Thank you. I was surprised myself."

Lola's hardened expression relaxed.

I see that kind of story. Half of the students who take alchemy have not yet mastered the [Mixing] skill. I heard that some haven't learned it even after 2 years, but most of them give up.
