The brave Simmel wants to resign

Mimiko also abandoned her reserve, blushing and clapping to urge him on. Seeing this, Otsuko could only follow suit, and Rika also imitated her reaction.

"Ahem, well then..."

Thus, Simmel could only begin to recount her unforgettable love story.

"That was after a mission ended..."

Then, Simmel began to vividly recount his interaction with Frilian, which he considered to be the most significant one.

That time, he invited her to the jewelry store, citing the fact that the enemy in the mission had worked very hard.

Although the elven companions chose a ring with little interest, that ring happened to have the pattern of a mirror lotus.

Its flower language is "eternal love".

Although it was probably not that her partner's original intention, Simmel was still very happy.

So they strolled together through the town at dusk.

The twilight, like a shimmering gilded veil, enveloped the entire town.

Warm orange and pale purple hues intertwine as the afterglow spills over the stone houses.

【Frilian】

【....Thanks.】

When the hero picked up the ring, the elf remained calm, assuming it was to be handed to him, and opened his palm with a serene expression.

At that time, a gentle breeze blew, softly swirling around the eaves and alleyways.

Simmel looked at Frilian, smiled knowingly, and quickly stepped forward.

As a warrior after all, Frilian couldn't possibly react to his movements. Her cloak was suddenly billowed by the wind, drawing a clean arc.

The young man knelt on one knee before his beloved, and then, in a once-in-a-lifetime act of impulsiveness, gently took her hand and slowly slipped the ring onto her finger...

I was very lucky.

The evening bell rang at just that moment, its gentle, ethereal sound blending with the drifting clouds.

"Oooo!!!!"

Almost everyone, through Simmel's vivid description, felt as if they had returned to that medieval town and witnessed that scene.

Although, I don't know how to say it, but...

It seems like they have plenty of funding!

Stunning and beautiful.

And appreciating beauty is a common trait among all human beings.

Seeing the children's behavior, Simmel couldn't help but raise her nose.

"And then what? And then what?!"

Then?

The smug Simmel was taken aback and said blankly.

"Then...she thanked me."

"?"

The group of people surrounding Simmel were taken aback once again.

"Then I continued traveling... Oh right, I also put a flower wreath on her, but she didn't seem to react much. I also invited her to see the flowers in my hometown, but she didn't come..."

“........Simmel”.

The rambling hero was interrupted, and when he looked up, he saw Nanako's serious face.

"This isn't a love story, it's a story of unrequited love."

"...Why would you say such malicious things?"

what.......

Nine years ago, when I talked to Xia You about this, I could bring it up relatively naturally. Is this what they call the sentimentality of getting older...?

Simmel kept her face turned away.

It took about half an hour for Nanako and Mimiko to coax her back to her senses.

----------

The little talk about love came to an end.

Although they mocked Simmel, Nanako and Mimiko, those two bratty younger sisters, clearly had no experience in love either. On the contrary, Otsuko and Rika were the only 'couple'.

Afterwards, because it was very late, Yi Gu also had to go back to the dormitory.

"Bye-Bye."

See you at school tomorrow!

Egoku bid farewell to the Gaba sisters. Although the conversation was a jumbled mess, it still achieved the two goals that Simmel had set for bringing Egoku to her home.

However, before leaving, Yigu noticed that Simmel was still whispering something to Midoriko.

"Is there still no chance this year...?"

"I will do my best."

"Um...."

Since becoming a sorcerer, his enhanced hearing allowed Yigu to hear clearly, but he still couldn't understand what they were talking about.

They seemed to be talking about something related to a name.

Xia You.....Jie?

"...Um, teacher?"

Yi Gu knew he shouldn't ask questions he dared not ask, but he couldn't hold back and blurted it out.

"Hmm? Ah... summer oil?"

Simmel thought about it and decided not to hide it.

"They are... friends from the past... no, they are still friends now, but we can't see each other for the time being for some reasons."

"but......"

Looking at the stars in the sky and feeling the stirrings of her intuition, Simmel chuckled softly.

"There will be an opportunity, and I will introduce you to it then."

Chapter 77 I need to step up my game too!

When Yi Gu arrived at school the next day, he was much more confident.

Walking on the stone path, a young man with dark circles under his eyes and a somewhat sinister and eccentric demeanor raised his hand above his eyebrows to shield his eyes from the morning light while gazing at the distant blue sky.

I can talk to my senior now.

I also had a good talk with Rika!

I am now a completely new person!

Next, all we need to do is figure out how to manage the relationship between Manami and the high school...

Otsuko carried a satchel containing the newly repaired Japanese sword and its magical implements, a gift from Ai Haibara.

Gripping the rope tightly, the boy's expression gradually hardened.

—Whether it's Haibara or Simmel, Gojo-sensei has said that I am very talented.

Having come this far, I can no longer back down...

If I were truly talented, and I could become a top-tier sorcerer like Gojo-sensei, I might be able to enjoy the same privileges as him and maintain a balance between the two sides.

So, I have no choice but to step up my game! (頑張らないと)

"What knight? Oh! Isn't this Yuta?"

The school gate.

Holding a convenience store meat bun in one hand, Gojo Satoru, dressed in all black, appeared.

Awoo.

After taking a bite of the completely cold steamed bun, Gojo Satoru casually asked.

"What are you doing?"

"Ah...maybe it's just to motivate myself..." Caught red-handed, Yi Gu scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hmm... I see. Oh well, never mind."

Gojo Satoru didn't care much, but when he looked at Otsuko, he paused, then seemed to remember something and rummaged in his pocket.

"Oh, I found it, I found it."

Then he jogged a couple of steps, came up to Yi Gu, and shoved the thing into Yi Gu's hands.

Perhaps because of the prejudice accumulated yesterday, Yigu subconsciously felt that what Gojo Satoru had given him might not be a good thing.

Was it a used tissue, a movie ticket without a receipt, or a half-lit spider firecracker?

"I feel like there's something strange about your gaze, Yuta! I don't know why, but it feels really rude to me!"

Gojo Satoru frowned.

"This is your sorcerer's certificate."

"oh oh."

I'm sorry, Mr. Gojo Satoru.

(Speaking of which, since it's a certificate, it should show my current level, right? Okay, let's see how long it will take me to reach the top level.)

Then Yi Gu saw the small "Special" character on his certificate.

"?"
