Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

"Rudy! Don't forget noon!"

"Don't worry, Silphie! I won't forget."

……

As soon as I entered the teaching building, a tuft of long, brown hair came into view.

"Lord Rudeus~"

As soon as I showed my face, Lilith hugged me and naturally took my arm. The touch of her right arm was very soft.

She joined the student council as my assistant, wearing the same uniform as Silphie, except that for some reason the top few buttons couldn't be fastened neatly like Silphie's.

"Have you been waiting a long time?"

"I've been waiting for ages, Lord Rudeus, you have to make it up to me~"

"Who told you to come so early?"

"How dare you speak so harshly to me, Lord Rudeus!"

I gave Lilith a disapproving look and then went to the classroom with her.

Today's lesson was still on healing spells. After taking classes for several months, my healing spells have barely reached the advanced level.

Lilith, a "bad girl," wasn't paying attention in class at all. She felt that as long as she didn't fail the final exam, nothing else mattered.

As sunlight streamed into the classroom through the window, her long, brown hair shone brightly, and drool dripped from her half-open mouth, leaving faint traces on the cuffs of her white uniform.

"Prince Halfas... likes it the most..."

The "bad girl" who was sleeping in class murmured the name of her dream lover. Compared to Lilith on weekdays, Lilith talking in her sleep was definitely cuter.

Although we've been intimate many times, it seems I've never properly touched her face.

I reached out my left hand, which was closest to her, held my breath, and quietly approached her fair, jade-like cheek.

Suddenly, she turned her head away, apparently having been discovered.

I then withdrew my left hand and continued listening to the lecture.

"Lord Rudeus bears some resemblance to Prince Halphas."

Lilith suddenly turned to me and said abruptly.

"Really? Why are you saying that all of a sudden?"

I lowered my voice and leaned closer to ask.

"Because Prince Halphas, like Lord Rudeus, likes to secretly touch me when I'm napping at the table."

As she spoke, Lilith climbed up from the table, rested her chin on her hand, looked out the window, and smiled broadly, looking very pleased. This was an expression she had never shown when she was with me; it was probably only when talking about His Highness Halphas.

“I never said I liked to grope people while they were sleeping, Miss Lilith.”

"What was Lord Rudeus doing just now?"

"I……"

Okay, I admit it, I'm despicable, I just wanted to touch her.

"How adorable!"

She turned around, her eyes scanning me from top to bottom with a hint of doting affection, as if she were looking at her own pet dog.

"Well, according to Lord Rudeus, since we are partners, let's just pretend that Lord Rudeus's attempt to sneak around on me never happened."

After saying that, she stretched lightly, and the movement of stretching her arms caught the teacher's attention. The teacher on the podium threw a piece of chalk at her without any mercy, and then continued the class.

As for this business partner, I might very well end up being sold out by her and still counting the money for her.

However, we spend a lot of time together on weekdays, and we have also been completely honest with each other. She helped me heal my right arm and helped me lose my virginity after nearly fifty years.

Furthermore, we now have a point of convergence of interests. Regardless of whether the Second Prince or someone else is behind her, I only know that the longer this mutually beneficial relationship continues, the more stable our lives will become.

A stable campus life, perhaps?

I really like it.

……

It was noon soon, and get out of class was about to end when a green head appeared outside the classroom door. Had Silphi not gone to class?

How did she start imitating "delinquent teenagers"?

I did not mean to blame Sylphie.

Hilfi has already mastered most of what the teacher taught in class. The teacher who teaches Class A is at most a Saint-level magician, and in some aspects, he may not be as good as Hilfi.

Looking at Lilith, who was lying on the desk next to me, tugging at my sleeve and murmuring about Princess Halphas, I felt that it was my fault that Sylphie skipped class for me.

I had already made plans with Silphie to have lunch with her today, and she even reminded me of it this morning.

Finally, get out of class ended. I gently pushed Lilith, who was fast asleep, and went outside the classroom to meet up with Silphi.

Jobless Reincarnation: Even Without a Transfer Event, I Will Still Live Seriously [Chapter 135]: A Long-Awaited Date

Chapter 135: A Long-Awaited Date

……

Is spring coming?

Or perhaps spring has already arrived.

At noon, the streets of Sharia were bustling with activity. Although it had snowed a few days ago, there was no puddles of melting snow on the streets.

All sorts of vendors were calling out to all sorts of customers. It seems like it was a long time ago, more than five months ago, when I last went shopping with Silphie outside the school gate.

I haven't gone shopping with Silphie for over five months?

However, it seems that the only time I actually went shopping was before going to the Duchy of Basheland.

And now, Hilfi is walking beside me. Unlike me, who has been staying at school for the past few months, she seems to go out shopping often. Compared to her, I am like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, and I find everything strange. When I see some vendors, I can't help but linger my eyes on the goods they are selling for a few more seconds.

"Hey Rudy, may I take your arm?"

Hilfi tilted her head and looked at me, her wine-red eyes flashing, and her tone lacked confidence.

Looking into her eyes, I instantly felt the blood vessels in my face heat up rapidly, like water boiling.

[If things continue like this, neither of you will likely end up well.]

Suddenly, a sentence Lilith had said flashed into my ears like an electric shock.

I just realized my mistake not long ago, am I going to repeat it?

My mind is a mess right now, and I'm not sure what the consequences would be if I let Sylphie carry me up. It might not be as serious as Lilith is making it out to be.

At that moment, I looked around and saw a large crowd. I probably needed a better reason.

"Maybe we should just forget about it, Hilfi. Look at all these people on the street..."

"Hmph, Miss Lilith is one of them..."

Before I could finish speaking, Silphie retorted, it seems she was prepared.

However, Lilith and I are really not in that kind of relationship.

"Fine, I'll just give in to her." Looking at Hilfi pouting and frowning, looking like she was about to cry, I thought, "If I make her cry over something like this, I'll probably have to commit seppuku to atone for my sins."

I gently took Silphie's left hand and placed it on my right arm; the woolen fabric of her uniform concealed the warmth of her arm.

"Wow……"

Hilfi looked at me with some surprise, then hugged my arm tightly and rested her head on my shoulder.

Perhaps every man, deep down, longs for such a moment?

He was being held by the arm by a beautiful girl who liked him, displaying a possessiveness like a boyfriend in front of everyone.

In the past, I despised people like this: those who were surrounded by women, exuding a charming aura, holding their heads high, and displaying the women around them like trophies.

The other type is the kind of man we see now.

Okay, I admit that when I was a NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) who stayed at home, I had a general hostility towards men who were surrounded by women.

However, judging from my current feelings, it seems pretty good.

Especially the sensation on my right arm, the soft, gentle waves and ripples of a babbling brook, I could even feel it through the smooth, navy-uniform-style jacket.

"Hmph, Rudy won't let me hug him if I don't tell him."

Although she was clinging to my arm, Hilfi still looked up and pouted, complaining.

This doesn't seem like Sylphie's personality. In my memory, Sylphie has always been submissive. Could it be because of me?

Or did she learn something from certain people?

That makes sense, though. She's the one who angrily rebuked the freshmen at the opening ceremony. Maybe she's changed a bit already, I just haven't noticed.

Perhaps this is how Silphie grows up.

"Alright, alright, don't be angry, Miss Sylphiete~"

As I spoke, I reached out my left hand and gently stroked the bridge of her nose, then poked her puffed-up cheek.

"No~"

In an instant, Hilfi buried her face in my arm, completely blocking my view of her face, but her ears were already bright red.

"Oh dear, Miss Hilfiet? Have you decided what you want to eat yet?"

"Hmm~ Actually, I don't really want to eat anything. I just want to eat with Rudy. So, it's okay if Rudy doesn't treat me to a meal, or it's okay if I treat Rudy to a meal. I just want to eat with Rudy. It's been such a long, long time since Rudy and I have had lunch and dinner together."

As she spoke, Hilfi even began to sob softly. Simple things like lunch and dinner had become such a complication for Hilfi…

"As long as Silphie likes it, I can have breakfast, lunch, and dinner with you every day. If you need me, I will be there for you anytime. It's that simple, isn't it? Okay, Silphie, don't cry."

"Really?"

Hilfi looked at me with teary eyes, which made my heart stop for a moment. She was just too cute. Indeed, cuteness is justice.

"Of course it's true. I'll be by Sylphie's side whenever she needs me."

"You're lying. Once Rudy sees Miss Lilith, he won't remember anything he told me."

Just as she wiped away her tears, Hilfi pouted again. So this is how Hilfi sees me. There's really nothing I can do about it.

I walked around the market for a long time, but I still couldn't decide what to eat. However, a stimulating aroma entered my nose.

"Huh? What's that smell? It's a little sour, but it smells so good."

Hilufi pointed to a semi-open-air stall in the market and said.

"Go take a look, Rudy."

Hilfi took my arm and we followed the aroma to a small stall. Under a small shed was a large stove with a big pot on it, steaming and bubbling out. The aroma we had just smelled was also coming out of the stove.

There were many people eating there. Looking into the pot from a little distance, it looked like fish soup. The river had thawed, and the fish that had been raised for a year looked delicious.

Unfortunately, there is no miso soup or sashimi in this world. Although there are fish in the river, people are afraid of getting poisoned if they eat them. In addition, there are no condiments like wasabi and soy sauce, so miso soup and sashimi have never come into existence.

Hilufi and I found a corner to sit down and each ordered a bowl of fish soup. We'd have fish soup for lunch.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, we have so many guests that we only have one bowl left. You two look like a match made in heaven, so you probably don't mind sharing one big bowl, do you?"

Just then, the waiter brought a bowl of fish soup and placed it in front of me and Shilufi. It looked like it contained lemons, onions, potatoes, and a whole piece of fish belly. He actually called it a bowl...

Before Hilufi and I could react to what was happening while staring at the fish soup, the waiter reappeared and put a wooden spoon into the soup.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, gentlemen. We only have one spoon left. You two look like a match made in heaven, so I hope you won't mind sharing a spoon."

After saying that, the waiter went to attend to other customers, but it seemed that he meant that Hilfi and I would share the same bowl and the same spoon.

By the time Hilfi and I realized what was happening, we were staring at each other in disbelief. Her face was as red as a ripe persimmon in autumn, and I could feel my face burning too, probably not much better.

"Um... Rudy... how about... I feed you?"

"Uh...uh...okay...okay...alright..."
