Helmut Episode
226
Now there are two people avoiding Helmut in the dorm. Leon and Taron.
Taron said that in the end he couldn’t get up from the stage that day and was carried out.
No one saw it clearly, but Helmut won anyway without drawing his sword.
Fortunately, not many people saw the impressive scene where he struck his opponent with the sheath of his sword, so there were not many rumors about him.
But it was well known. Especially about the huge skill gap he revealed.
As soon as Helmut returned to his lodgings that day, he received a lot of attention.
In particular, the stares I felt from the guys on Matesis’ side seemed to sting.
It turned out that Taron was a candidate for the championship among the lower grade representatives. It is said that Robin’s skills are very good, but not at Taron’s level.
In other words, as of today, Helmut is the strongest candidate for victory in this dorm.
“You said you showed that guy Matesis a lesson?”
That afternoon at the dorm, Nils tapped him on the shoulder and said as he passed by. Charlotte also said with a hard look on her face.
“I don’t think it’s right to reveal the housemaster’s name at a senior competition. But you are still amazing.”
It was the first time Helmut had seen such a yearning look in Charlotte’s eyes. She had the determination of a model student.
‘As a fellow Greta student, I have to work hard to be able to catch up with Helmut-senpai.’
Charlotte’s competition was tomorrow.
Of course, Charlotte could only meet Helmut in the finals, and unless she competed in really top condition, her chances of making it to the finals were not high.
Charlotte is a first-year student, and this is a competition that up to third-year students can attend.
Whatever Charlotte’s decision was, it had nothing to do with Helmut.
Helmut just thought that he would definitely be eliminated next time.
‘Next time…’
I think I need to take more active action to get eliminated. It’s not a clumsy mindset.
That day, as always, a fight broke out in Matesis. It’s not a formal protest, it’s literally a fight.
Instructor Matesis, whom he encountered while passing by, was furious and criticized Instructor Patricia while trying hard to hide his expression of not knowing what to do.
“The student is like a robber. The education at Greta Academy is questionable. To do something like that in a serious sword fight! “What on earth is that student named Helmut?”
Everyone who watched knew that Helmut had deliberately beaten his opponent. That was pointed out.
Instructor Patricia snorted and refuted.
“What can you do about the difference in skills between their students and our students? Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I won in a real sword sparring without even drawing my sword. Good luck!”
Instructor Matesis passed by without saying a word.
Instructor Patricia, who was elated, came to the training center and silently tapped Helmut on the shoulder.
Helmut looked at her curiously.
“Instructor?”
Instructor Patricia, whose expression suddenly hardened, placed her chin on his shoulder and asked worriedly.
“Did you feel bad because you weren’t feeling well? “I didn’t know you could hit someone with a sword sheath.”
“Maybe so.”
Perhaps the instructor also thought that he shouldn’t do that? There was something called dignity as a student at Greta Academy.
Helmut thought it would be better to say it was because he was sick.
However, Instructor Patricia did not criticize him at all.
“Anyway, you did well. Well done. Even if your condition is bad, there is no need to worry. “The victory is yours, Helmut!”
It was a pleasant expression. Instructor Patricia told me not to overdo it and to recover my condition by practicing moderately and then disappeared.
After she left, Helmut felt somewhat heavy. I don’t think any excuses will work now.
Helmut couldn’t figure out how to get eliminated naturally unless he artificially developed a high fever.
Area, who heard that Helmut was not eliminated that night, nodded.
“I knew it.”
In any case, Helmut had no talent for this.
That is, to pretend to be sick or something.
She must have been thinking about it for a while and soon opened her mouth again.
“I got a good idea. The next match is the day after tomorrow, right? “I left the dorm that morning.”
“Leave?”
“Okay, just head to Baden. You and I are in contact, right? My bracelet beeped and said it thought I was in danger. But it turns out it was a misunderstanding. I made a mistake.
You head to Baden, find out about it too late, and come back around evening. “It would be more natural if I contacted the faculty.”
“Wouldn’t it be unreasonable for me to run out just because you are in danger at the academy?”
The blind spot was that it was still the final exam period. Even though he looks relaxed, Area is studying until dawn.
At the same time, she was able to take some time to contact Helmut.
In fact, it was just habitual studying, but Area had already finished preparing for the exam.
“Just say you didn’t think about it that far. “It seemed like it was so urgent that I ran out with only my sword.”
Helmut raised his eyebrows.
“That’s a bit far-fetched.”
If you give in a hundred times and your girlfriend is in danger, you might be able to ignore the swordsmanship competition without thinking about the before and after and run away without leaving a word to the instructor.
But you can’t just disappear like that just because you don’t know if your friend is in danger.
If you do that, you will cause unnecessary misunderstanding. There is a misunderstanding that Helmut and Area are like that.
No matter how close we are, that level is a bit excessive.
This problem arose because only the dean knew that Area was disguising herself as a man.
Helmut pointed out one fact.
“Professor Luxen can track me down.”
This is possible if you become a magic professor. Because he is paying close attention to Helmut.
He even volunteered to watch the lower-grade swordsmanship competition.
If Helmut disappears, he will be the first to know.
They may still be watching. He seemed to have sensed that Helmut wanted to be eliminated from the swordsmanship competition.
“Then is there a solution?”
Area asked with a sigh. Helmut gave the obvious answer.
“Somehow.”
Now I had to decide for myself.

The next day was Charlotte’s competition.
There was no telling whether she would advance to the next level.
I heard that the other person was a second year student at the Imperial Academy. If you’re a sophomore and selected as a starter, you’re probably at the top of your class.
‘Everyone is a formidable opponent to me.’
Charlotte, who devoted herself to training in the familiar atmosphere of Latona, gained confidence.
‘good.’
I didn’t know if my mother would be watching, but I was going to do my best. Her eyes shined intensely.
Charlotte had her long hair tied up tightly. It was soon time to compete.

Michael was sick at that time. Of course, he was sick quite often, so it was something he was used to.
Michael did not curse his weak body as much as he used to.
But at times like this, I was quite annoyed by my body not being able to do what it wanted.
‘I can’t believe you set up a competition and can’t watch it.’
A bitter smile appeared on the lips of Michael, who had not been able to get out of bed for several days.
I was feeling a little better, but walking around was still difficult. It seemed like he was being punished for writing a bad report to Charlotte.
Michael always felt sick after conflict with Charlotte.
She and Michael, who are twins, are connected in some way, so this may have an impact.
Nevertheless, Michael could not help but touch Charlotte.
‘Today is the day Charlotte participates in the competition.’
Michael frowned. If you force yourself to get up and go out, your physical condition will worsen.
However, Charlotte may be eliminated as of today.
Charlotte was still a first year student and too young to perform well in a comprehensive swordsmanship competition.
Even though she is a talented girl who studied under the Black Wing Knight Commander and achieved excellent grades at Greta Academy.
Because the people who participate in this swordsmanship competition here are all people labeled as geniuses.
So this is the first and last chance to see her in a competition he is hosting.
‘Do I want Charlotte to be eliminated?’
In the past, I would have been overcome with extreme jealousy and prayed for her to be eliminated.
But that wasn’t the case now. It seems like the time away has helped. Michael was worried.
“Michael, are you feeling okay?”
A worried voice was heard. The other person was the only one who could enter his bedroom without permission.
Michael raised his eyes. An elegant blonde lady was looking down at him.
“mother.”
“I heard your fever has gone down a bit… but it looks like you can’t wake up yet. “I think this cold is a bit harsh.”
Michael closed his eyes and smiled kindly.
“Stay away. “I don’t want to pass the cold on to my mother.”
“I don’t catch colds often. “You know.”
“Of course.”
Surprisingly, Michael was the only one in the Grand Duchy of Rinosa who was weak.
Even my mother, who did not hold a sword, was very healthy.
That was also the reason Michael was caught up in extreme deprivation. The whole family is healthy and strong, but I am alone and weak.
“What should I do with this? You like sword fighting competitions. “I will miss you, but it will be a pity that I can’t.”
Since he is the host of the tournament, you can sit in the best seat and enjoy the game to your heart’s content.
However, since my physical condition did not keep up, such privileges were meaningless.
“That’s right. really.”
Michael had a good idea.
“Charlotte has a game today. “Would you like my mother to come and see it for me?”
“Is that okay?”
In fact, the Grand Duchess of Linosa knew that he was jealous of Charlotte.
She looked at Michael with startled eyes.
“Yes, of course. Charlotte will be happy to see her mother.”
“Well, I’m glad you care about Charlotte. Charlotte will like it too.”
Charlotte won’t be very happy if she finds out that Michael ordered it. You might wonder what Michael is up to.
But she will be glad that her mother came to see her.
‘I don’t think I would want to be eliminated in front of my mother… but what will happen?’
Michael still spoke with an angelic face even though he was thinking of evil thoughts.
“Then I’m glad. Just watch from afar. “Because Charlotte doesn’t want her identity revealed.”
“It did. Please be careful.”
After giving Michael warm tea and medicine, Grand Duchess Linosa turned around with a graceful appearance and disappeared.
He was planning to head straight to the swordsmanship competition venue.
