Became the Golden Sun of the Academy

36 – Rest (1)

“… ….”

After coming to my senses, it felt like I was dreaming.

No, that was only half true.

The reason I described it as a dream is because it is a scene where ‘me’ moves my body to deal with Nikita, not me who has remained in my mind.

‘Is such a thing possible? The future ‘me’ is.’

A fairy tale from the future to the past.

It was an unexpected use.

I had no idea how good I would have to be to be able to do that.

The reason why I can be sure that the person who took control of my body is the future me is because of the memories that flowed slightly as he assimilated with my body.

Because it was an instant fairy tale, I didn’t notice more than that, though.

Anyway, I organized my thoughts and opened my eyes.

It was an unfamiliar white ceiling.

It’s probably like an infirmary on the island in preparation for an emergency.

“… ….”

When I raised my upper body, I saw an unfamiliar head dozing in the chair next to the bed, where the sun was shining diagonally.

It was Lucy.

He was dozing with his arms crossed as if he had been by my side while I was unconscious, but he didn’t even try to wake me up.

“Well, it deserves to be tiring.”

I stared at Lucy’s face as she leaned against the back of the bed.

There’s no particular reason, but I don’t think I’ll ever get a chance to see you like this when I think of my usual relationship.

“Um.”

It was a little flawed that he was drooling a little with his mouth slightly open, but wouldn’t that be a cute part?

I pulled out a tissue from the bedside table and wiped his mouth.

Then, the face that was hidden by his hair was clearly visible.

When I saw it up close, it definitely felt different from when I saw it from a distance.

“My eyelashes are long.”

Eyebrows that cover tightly closed eyes like a curtain, or pink lips that contrast with immaculate skin.

Anyway, it’s new.

“It’s pretty.”

It was sincerity that came from the depths of my heart.

It was a time when I was trying to take my head off, feeling that there weren’t many people who pushed me to cheat in the original work.

“…… Hmm…….”

Lucy flinched and shivered.

My face was subtly red, and my regular breathing became irregular, so I wondered if I had caught a cold.

Unlike me, who was covered with a blanket, Lucy was asleep wearing only thin clothes, so there was a good chance.

“Should I move you to bed?”

While saying that, he tried to hug Lucy.

“…… Yes.”

The guy just woke up while stretching.

The guy gave a big yawn, glanced at me with teary eyes, and said.

“Woke up.”

“Yes, it happened.”

Instead of carrying him, he threw away the blanket I covered him with.

The fluttering blanket fell on Lucy’s head and covered her body.

Lucy frowned and grumbled as she pulled her head out of the blanket.

“What are you doing all of a sudden?”

“Look at your face.”

“My face?”

When I handed over the hand mirror that was nearby, Lucy stared at the mirror with a disinterested look.

“Huh?”

Then, with a puzzled face, he snatched up the mirror and pushed his face close to the mirror, groping his cheek with one hand, with the momentum to enter the mirror.

“What is it? Why is my face red…… ?”

It was a voice that almost crawled in, probably talking to himself.

I gave a rough answer.

“Looks like you’re about to catch a cold. Wrap yourself in a blanket.”

“Uh, uh. I guess so. Cold. Huh. I will have a cold. It was a bit cold yesterday morning.”

The guy put down his hand mirror, repeating the words as if brainwashing himself.

At the subject with only his face sticking out with the blanket wrapped around him like a cape, he fanned his face again to see if it was hot.

I wondered what kind of fool I was, but I thought it was something similar to putting the air conditioner on until it was cold in the summer and getting into a thick blanket.

“How long has it been since I passed out?”

As I asked, Lucy looked at the clock hanging on the wall.

“A day and three hours.”

“A day and three hours?”

Thinking she’s lost her mind for so long, Lucy crossed her arms and spat out.

“Yes. I’m afraid I won’t wake up like a dead person…… I decided.”

A word that I finally completed after hesitating.

The guy pointed his finger and added an explanation in a hurry, as if making an excuse.

“Huh? Until this point, I thought you were going to shamelessly die without apologising for what happened.”

“I’m glad you didn’t die.”

“Yes, that’s good. No, it’s not that I’m glad you’re alive, it’s that I can hear an apology.”

“Who Said What?”

Even if you really worried about me, it’s a mess…… Leaving her chattering Lucy behind her, he asked her.

“Did you get the tokens from Kyle and Princess Veronica?”

“… ….”

Lucy put on a look of contempt, as if she would have taken something like that in such a situation, but she rummaged in her arms while doing so.

Then, just as I remember, I lifted the round plate that falls when I catch a monster and stretched it out in a straight line.

“You didn’t take it at that time, did you? It was given to Kyle and Princess Veronica after they woke up. He said he would have died without help anyway.”

Accepting the voucher Lucy gave her, she checked the score written on it.

Perhaps thanks to the token of the boss monster at the top of the mountain, the score was high enough to be equivalent to killing hundreds of normal monsters.

In addition to that, if you add in what you stole from the other students before climbing that mountain, you have nothing to worry about at the top.

However, it was still lacking.

If the two of us collected the tokens, Anastasia would have collected the tokens along with hundreds of summoned beasts.

Jumping.

As I was fiddling with the token, the door opened violently.

When I turned my head to see who opened the door urgently without knocking, Charlotte was standing beyond the open door.

“Bocchan.”

Charlotte walked quickly to the bed where I was sitting and circled around her, looking around.

“Are you feeling well?”

Making her raise her arms, groping her sides, and staring at her face to see if there are any scars on her face was a bit burdensome.

You look fine at first glance, but why are you so worried?

“It’s okay.”

After I said that, Charlotte let out a sigh of relief as she stroked her chest.

Then she shot me a little reprimanding look.

I raised my hand to show my apology.

I said that with Lucy there wouldn’t be a big problem even without her escort Charlotte, but she got into trouble because things didn’t turn out the way I expected.

This was an understandable reaction, as it could have harmed Charlotte, who was her escort.

“Still, since you came back alive, nothing will harm you.”

“…… For that reason I…… Ha, no I’m glad you’re okay.”

Then Charlotte found Lucy sitting next to her.

Her Lucy smiled awkwardly as if she recognized her Charlotte, who once saved her, but her Charlotte whispered into her ear that he did not recognize her.

“Who is that woman?”

“This is the guy you saved the other day. Don’t you remember her?”

“…… Ah… …. That’s why I put the young master in danger twice…….”

Is what you think of correct?

Charlotte stared at Lucy, narrowing her eyes as if she were looking at some enemy.

Lucy erased the smile from her face and rolled her eyes in embarrassment.

“Anyway, young boy. All the students who have just been on the island come back and say that the score has been tallied. Would you like to go check it out?”

“Okay, I have to go.”

She didn’t ask how many tokens she had collected.

You’ll find out soon anyway, and even if you ask now, the results won’t change.

“I will help you.”

Although her wounds were completely gone, she still couldn’t control her body properly, so she put her hand on her bed and Charlotte came over to her side and gave her a shoulder.

She asked as she looked at her sullen Lucy as she walked along supported by her and did not pretend to know her.

“Are you not going?”

“I have to go too. It’s not like you’re seriously injured to the point where you need to rest.”

She woke up, and Lucy followed her and stood to her left, and Charlotte put her arm over her shoulder for a second and gave her a new lift to her left side.

She tilted her head, not knowing why she would do that, so when I saw Lucy’s face lit up as her Charlotte got between me and her, I could see why.

She must have moved to hang out with her Lucy, who seems to want to talk to her.

Indeed, it was a thoughtful owner who took care of what he needed even if I didn’t say anything.

“I…… I was so distracted at the time that I couldn’t say it properly, but thank you for saving me.”

“Oh, yes.”

A dry answer that made me feel ashamed after hearing it.

I couldn’t put it into words, but the tone seemed to tell me not to talk any further.

Perhaps she noticed the atmosphere, Lucy fell into a mood again and didn’t say anything, and Charlotte didn’t bother to speak up either.

There was silence in the corridor.

My guess that I moved to hang out with Lucy was completely wrong.
