BXBX NOVEL [Ln] Volume 4: Chapter 1.6
A Fresh Start Part 6
Translator : PolterGlast
After the group finished eating and disbanded, Feo walked through the central park toward the academy.
Although the school was quiet on a holiday, the corridors were filled with instructors doing office work, and students training on their own could be seen in the training halls through the windows.
In the midst of all this, Feo headed for a large room in the instructor's building.
It was the office of the school's headmaster.
When he knocked and entered the room, he found Jihad, the master of the room, his assistant Inda, and Anri, Nozomu's class homeroom teacher, in a discussion.
"So~~. Will you accept our proposal about the upcoming joint class~~?"
"Sure. Indeed, there is no better way to find out who he is. We have already notified all the parties and made arrangements for them to move. Inda-sensei, what about the other person on our watch list?"
"He has been coming to the academy. However, he has not taken any action noteworthy. Ah, here you are, Feo Risitsa. You are late."
"Sorry. I was having lunch with Nozomu."
When Feo mentioned Nozomu's name, Jihad and Inda's eyes naturally narrowed.
Feo is one of the informants of the city's intelligence organization, the Starlight. After the defeat of the [Cracked-Crown] Giant Centipede, he and Anri had reported to them that Nozomu was a Dragon Slayer.
They were wary of Nozomu Bountis. No, it was more like they were trying to discern. For this reason, they had Feo report regularly about Nozomu's situation.
It would be impossible not to be concerned about a Dragon Slayer, who had not appeared in several hundred years.
"So I heard you were talking about Nozomu, have you decided what you're going to do with him?"
"Hmm. As suggested by Anri-sensei, we have decided to assess him in the upcoming joint class."
When Feo looked at Anri, she smiled at him and gave a small nod.
Feo cast a jittery glance at her. To him, Anri was actually the one who had dragged him into this troublesome situation, so he had a bit of a bad feeling about her.
"Ah, right. What about Ken Notice? Are you going to summon him and question him? Concealing abilities is against the school's rules, isn't it?"
"It is indeed a problem, but more than that, his potentials are too valuable. Besides, the school's management will probably only give him a stern warning."
Abilities, which are special powers possessed by individuals, are naturally obligated to be informed to the academy.
However, on the other hand, there were only very few among the students at Solminati Academy who had manifested abilities that could not be easily discarded.
Especially if it was the ability to make a contract with a spirit, something that ordinary humans would never be able to manifest.
"But you can't compare him to a Dragon Slayer...... -wait, that's not it."
"Right. If Ken Notice's abilities were to be made public, it would inevitably draw attention to Nozomu Bountis as well. As a result, there is a possibility that people will find out about him being a Dragon Slayer, and thus, the whole thing will become like a hot potato."
Arcazam is basically governed by a parliamentary system with representatives selected from each country, and matters and reports that come before the council are passed on to the other countries as they are.
At the same time, there are those who try to outmaneuver other countries.
"In any case, we can't make things about him known to the public. I see, Anri-sensei, is it because you understood this that you decided to tell me about this?"
"Yes, exactly~~"ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels
Jihad let out a deep sigh as Anri stated this with a big smile on her face, without any sense of guilt.
Jihad couldn't help but think that she had a pretty thick skin, despite being new to her position.
"However, because of that, we couldn't deal with the rumors about Nozomu-kun that are currently spreading in the academy......"
Anri looked down ....... All three grades know that Nozomu called out Lisa in front of everyone during the last joint class before the Special Comprehensive Exercise. As a result, Nozomu's reputation has now been further damaged.
After two years, what on earth was he saying? Was he going to apologize now, or was he going to continue making excuses? were the students' reactions.
The fact that Lisa herself said afterward that Nozomu had not come to the school further tarnished his reputation.
"However, there is a discrepancy between Lisa-san's testimony and Nozomu-kun's story. Perhaps ......"
"Ken Notice used his contracted spirits to do something, huh......"
"If so, his humanity comes into question. At the very least, he is in no condition to be left unchecked."
If you want to get rid of him, just do it. I've already handed over my lackey. But this is the last time I will close my eyes.
Ken gulped upon receiving that piercing gaze. It was only because of this person's backing that he had been able to carry out various sabotage schemes.
However, that will end. Confronted with this fact, Ken tried to say something, but the inorganic gaze that was directed at him silenced him.
If you understand, then go home. Ken bit his lip upon hearing these words and turned his back to leave the place. There was a dangerous glint in his eyes.
The shadow, having seen him leave, snorted in dismay. This one is beyond help. His mentality is weaker than expected. But it also brought unexpected good news.
The shadow held up his hand into the depths of darkness. A light circled in the air, creating a film of light that shone like a mirror. A young man was reflected there.
For the first time in hundreds of years, a Dragon Slayer had appeared. The second coming of a complete legend, different from the failures of that country.
And, that power. Without a doubt, it belonged to that Abhorrence Dragon, which was the most heretical among the mightiest spirit species.
Furthermore, in pursuit of this Abhorrent Dragon, even its greatest adversary has come to this Arcazam.
"The fateful hour is approaching."
After erasing Nozomu's projected image, the shadow turned its eyes to a corner of the room that was shrouded in darkness.
There, a lone raven stood as if waiting for the shadow's command.
The shadow waved its hand as if commanding it, and then the raven melted into the shadow and disappeared. After witnessing this, the shadow also left the room.
