I Became the Laughing Bell Character of the Academy

Despite being caught by Eleanor, Lucia did not cut off communication.

Things got weird, but that didn’t change the fact that her mission was to watch over Oz and Eleanor.

The first one was fine. Yes, the first one was fine.

It didn’t matter if the two of them flirted around without knowing what the situation was. Isn’t the purpose in the first place to relieve stress?

Yes, even though he is buried in work, even though he is still gathering information sent and organizing the situation around him, even though he is supposed to be watching the two of them goofing around like fools. yeah, that was fine

But that thought didn’t last very long.

The beginning of the case was simple.

– I’m just saying this just in case, but you don’t intend to raise it, do you? Do you already have one at home?

– Uhm… … . I do not know? I’m worried because the cat isn’t cute.

-… … If Lucia hears that, she will surely be sad.

-Your master started it first, right?

It was because the two of them were playing with Lucia. Normally, Lucia would have been able to laugh it off as well, but now it’s different. It is said that it is not just the two of them that have accumulated stress.

“I wish all the damn kites just died… … .”

Lucia suddenly became annoyed by the whole situation.

Should we even care about the two dating in the first place?

why the hell is she she is busy It’s tiring being tasked with monitoring insane things like Oz and Eleanor, but there are other things.

“really… … . I want to get some rest too. Just the two of us, let’s be mean… … .”

Seeing the two of them playing together, perhaps because of the stress, makes my emotions lighten and irritates me.

“Lucia! Hello~ Aren’t you lonely without me?”

At that time, a frivolous girl suddenly entered the place where Lucia was hiding.

A girl with short brown hair and black glasses.

“… … Cry.”

[SR Staring Owl]

Ulla Stillena

Ulla lightly ran to the back of Lucia, who was frowning, and clung to her. It wasn’t particularly heavy.

It was just annoying that she was trying to sneakily molest her.

“Why are you here when you should be watching over the King?”

Each of the ＜Tenebris＞ who infiltrated ＜Skientia＞ had a mission assigned to them.

Representative among them was surveillance of key figures in each country.

In the case of Lucia, Eleanor and Oz, who were in the same class, were like that, and in the case of Ulla, it was Alexios.

“Of course I came to see you.”

“Leaving the workplace is a felony, Ulla. Raise your hand and surrender.”

Lucia pointed the gun at Ulla’s words without a single doubt.

It was the trust between the two people that had been forged over a long period of working together.

“You’re still picky~ After all, cats should be arrogant.”

“Then you are not only light in body, but also light in action, right? Or has your head become lighter?”

“Smile, Lucia. “Nya ha ha ha.”

“… … You don’t laugh like that just because I’m a cat beastman?”

“You were the one who said that your character would stand out if you smiled like this.”

“How long do you remember things from your childhood?!”

“You will remember forever? Nyahahahaha!”

Ulla, while teasing Lucia in a flirtatious manner, rushed at her in an instant. The target is the wrist holding the gun.

Ula charged like a raptor attacking its prey.

“Ahh!”

And as it was, Lucia counterattacked and rolled on the ground.

“It’s so obvious, cry. How long have you been using the same trick?”

“Um, you seem to be more picky today, what happened?”

“… … nothing at all.”

Ula, who was rolling on the floor, saw Lucia’s hardened face in annoyance, and then rolled a few more turns, heading towards the communication port.

– Master, look at this. They sell weird things.

– Six times.

-Are you eating it like this?

-You can half-cook it, or what… … . It’s like a steak.

The chatter between the two could still be heard from the communication port.

Ulla looked at the communication tool and Lucia alternately, then smiled sinisterly and said.

“jealousy?”

“… … .”

Lucia didn’t make any excuses. He just looked down at Ulla with contempt.

The answer was enough.

Ula quietly kept her mouth shut.

“Now, before you really pull the trigger, tell me why you are here. Ulla, what about the Fist King?”

Ulla, who was rolling on the floor, shrugged at the question and said,

“I missed it.”

“Missed? you? what is that… … .”

Ulla had a particularly good eye in ＜Tenebris＞.

It was enough to simply look far away, but her true value was her ability to clearly distinguish distant objects.

That’s why she rarely misses her opponent.

It was harder to miss unless the distance was literally split by a kilometer in an instant.

“That’s right, did you suddenly go into the goblin forest?”

“What the hell… … .”

Among the surveillance targets, there is no one who does not act unexpectedly.

Lucia had a headache. But there was still something to check.

“Then did you get permission from the captain to join us?”

“Of course~ No matter how, did I really leave the workplace without permission? How many years have I had jjambab?”

“… … .”

Lucia, in fact, sincerely thought that it might be.

Ula’s actions are not acting. As usual, she approached people in a moderate and gentle manner. I just left it alone because that side could rather outwit the infiltrator.

“Then it’s really unfortunate, but from here on, it’s about work.”

“I don’t regret anything, so if you have something to report, do it quickly. Do you know how much time I wasted?”

“Nyahahahahaha.”

“… … Didn’t I tell you not to laugh like that?”

Lucia seemed to be dizzy at the sudden attack of her dark history.

“I hear you’re looking for the door to the underworld?”

“yes… … . But no matter how much I look for it, I can’t find it, so it’s a problem.”

“Did I find it?”

“What… … ?”

Ula, who was still lying on the floor like her own bedroom, lifted up her sunglasses to reveal her eyes.

The eyes of the owl beastman, who could clearly distinguish objects even at night, were looking straight at Lucia.

The moment their eyes met, Lucia grabbed Ulla by the collar.

This is an important matter that can change the situation of the war in an instant. And yet it was. Aren’t you crazy?

“Keck! Ugh, calm down Lucia.”

“Can’t you answer quickly? Do you know how much we’ve been grinding for this?!”

“Hey, sky… … .”

“What?”

Lucia let go of Ulla’s collar, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

Ula took a deep breath and spoke in a calmer tone this time.

“It was around 1,000 meters in the air.”

“Is that possible?”

“It wasn’t even a completed door in the first place, and I don’t know where it will eventually open… … . It is certain that there was a door in the sky once.”

“no way… … .”

The door can open in two ways.

It is a place contaminated by fraud, or a place with traces of [Myungwang].

There is no way that there is a place contaminated by fraud in the sanctuary of the Vatican. That’s why everyone was looking for traces.

The door to ＜Underworld＞ can only be opened near the traces of the [Myeongwang].

That’s why Marie traveled all over ＜Skientia＞ and left as many and wide traces as possible.

However, the door was opening at 1,000 meters in the sky.

Are there traces somewhere in the sky? No, it can’t be.

It’s strange that if there is such a thing, it is not found.

then.

If so.

Even though it is 1,000m high in the sky, if the trace is considered to be close.

“… … damn it.”

How wide is it?

“Cry. How many people know about this?”

“Now the captain and you. Now you’ll have to tell me the rest, right?”

Lucia frowned at Ulla’s flirtatious attitude.

This battle won’t end with a simple raid.

It will definitely be an all-out war.

“… … .”

Looking at Lucia with such a serious expression, Ula cautiously opened her mouth to try to evoke the atmosphere.

“Nyahahahahaha.”

“I told you not to laugh like that! You bastard!”

It backfired.

* * *

After finishing the outing, I decided to head for the Vatican. Originally, I would have gone straight to the dorm, but I have to work as much as I spent playing with Eleanor.

-I found a place to open the door.

I couldn’t stay still.

I found the location of the door. I couldn’t see it even after activating [Contemplation], but the door must be there. But can you say you found this?

According to the scale Lucia said, there is a high probability that the scope of the door will eventually cover the entire Vatican.

There is no change from the previous prerequisites.

It just proves impossible to prevent the door from opening in advance.

“ha… … .”

“Are you worried about sighing? Mr. Oz.”

“… … .”

When I turned my head in the direction the voice came from, there was Arrieta.

Perhaps it’s because [Contemplation] has been activated a lot lately, I’m more surprised than usual by this unexpected appearance.

I knew it was impossible to locate Arrieta within the sanctuary, but I couldn’t help but be surprised.

“Arrieta. Were you practicing until this late?”

“Well… … . Fatigue does not build up in the Sanctuary.”

Arrieta replied with her usual soft smile.

But what you’re saying is horrible. It is said that it is natural to overdo it because fatigue does not build up.

I could see how heavy the burden she had to carry as a saint was.

“Aren’t you mentally exhausted though? It’s not good to overdo it. Arrieta.”

“Since Oz-sama said that, there’s nothing persuasive.”

“… … .”

Arrieta blows vicious words with a gentle smile.

He probably wouldn’t even be aware that it was vicious.

“Does Oz think I need to rest?”

“Yes, Arrieta. Not really what I’m talking about… … . I am worried that you seem to be overdoing it.”

“Then can you help me rest?”

“Yes… … ?”

I’m busy now. I don’t know what I can do right now, but I have to think about the size of the ＜Underworld＞ door and preparations for the upcoming battle.

I decided to go in a different way from Oz this time. To that end, he deliberately committed murder.

They are the ones who attacked me, but I even deliberately killed them just to get used to them.

It took my mind so far.

Yes, I definitely got it.

“If only a little… … .”

For some reason, it was hard to disobey Arrieta.

It’s not just because the [Erosion degree] has increased. [Erosion degree] has been remarkably low since the moment I forcibly committed murder.

It means that I am not assimilated with Oz as much as I used to be.

“Then could you hold my hand to the place you always go?”

Even so, I had no choice but to hold Arrieta’s hand.

* * *

I arrived at the garden where I sometimes met Arietta and had tea time.

Even though it was night, the white light of divine power flowing softly was illuminating the surroundings.

“Well… … . It’s been a while since I’ve been driving myself, so I don’t know if it will work.”

“I will do it. Arrieta. Don’t overdo it… … .”

“I do not like it.”

When I tried to steal the tea pot from the dangerous appearance, Arrieta rather raised the tea pot and frowned.

There is useless stubbornness.

“I want to ride. I’ll treat you, so stay still.”

“… … Isn’t this a place for Arrieta to rest?”

“Um… … .”

Arrieta shakes the teapot and begins to ponder. I don’t know if this is a problem worth worrying about, but it must be a major one for her.

“Then half by one?”

“Do you really mean it?”

“Yes, I really want to do that.”

It’s the sound of each other giving each other a ride. It is a cumbersome condition.

“… … All right.”

Anyway, this seat is for Arrieta to rest. It wouldn’t matter if I listened to that level of stubbornness.

Rather, I don’t know what I’m doing. Shouldn’t have been wasting time like this… … .

“Mr. Oz.”

“Yes?”

“Did you say something the other day? A story about the primordial angel.”

“ah… … Yes, there was.”

It was a word that I brought out to try to do something about the awkward position. At that time, Arrieta was talking nonsense, and finally answered that she did not know.

“Actually, I secretly learned about the primordial angel during my training.”

I am dumbfounded by that word.

I know how busy Arietta is back at the Vatican.

She is the symbol of the Holy See.

She is a person who not only has to show her miracles in front of countless people and publicize the church, but also continues to train as an apostle of God.

“You didn’t have to do that… … .”

If it wasn’t for the Vatican, which is overflowing with holy power and doesn’t get tired easily, Arietta would have collapsed right away.

She was so busy that she swarmed around to answer the question I brought up to get out of the mood.

For her, finding information is harder than anyone else.

Because she is blind, she cannot read the Bible. So I must have met a lot of people selling my feet for that trivial information.

“Because Oz-nim took an interest in what I was doing. No matter how trivial it was, I was happy about it.”

Arrieta says so and pours tea over my cup.

It is the scent of apple mint, which she likes, and always comes from her.

“This will be a trivial answer to a trivial question, but… … . Would you like to listen if you have time?”

“… … Yes.”

Because I can’t let the hard work you did for me go in vain.
