Helmut
Episode 93
“Do you understand? Oh, I think I see that beer house over there. “Don’t you smell alcohol?”
Xian took the lead, making a fuss. Asuka, who was raising her fist, quickly followed behind.
As he said, I saw an open bar. Because it was early, there were few people.
There were chairs and tables on the street in front of the store.
Usually, there are partitions to separate them, but tables and chairs were placed on the street without any such thing.
“Let’s sit here.”
Xian chose a table and sat down as if he was used to it. Asuka and Helmut sat down, and a waiter came out from inside and presented a menu.
Helmut asked, looking at the unknown menu.
“If you eat somewhere like this, won’t you get dusty?”
“Once inside the stomach, everything is the same. “Are you pretending to be a noble just because you live in a luxurious mansion?”
“You’re surprisingly neat… No, you seem to be a bit concerned about things like this.”
Asuka and Xian look at each other strangely. It was an unfair sound.
By far, it is Helmut who has lived the most difficult life among them. It was the first time since leaving the Forest of Pahe that Helmut had laid down in a proper bed.
“I’m just curious why you chose this route instead of inside.”
“It’s frustrating, isn’t it? “It tastes better when you drink it outdoors in the open air.”
“That’s right, you know something too.”
Xian nodded and agreed with Asuka’s words.
“Well, Instructor Ethan would never eat at a place like this.”
“Would you like to put the sandwich on a plate and cut it with a knife?”
That was true. Ethan Kudrow was the type of person who was more suited to being called an aristocrat than a prosecutor.
“If this is your first time here, just leave it to us.”
Helmut lost his right to speak as soon as the menu was taken away, and Sian and Asuka excitedly ordered food and drinks.
It didn’t look shabby, but it didn’t look like anything more than a restaurant attached to an inn.
However, the grilled skewers and goulash with white bread that came with beer were quite delicious.
“Hey, this place is cheap and good?”
“yes? “If you ask people who are good at walking around, they will give you good information.”
“Why do you have so many friends and stick around with this guy?”
Asuka pointed to Helmut.
“It’s black, it’s bloody, it’s speechless, and it’s not funny.”
Helmut, who had been singled out, drank his beer in silence. It wasn’t something someone who followed a black, bloody, silent, and boring guy would say.
Xian’s face turned red after only two glasses of beer. With his tongue twisted, he let out his true feelings.
“fun? I’m having fun. “I knew Helmut the moment I saw him.”
“what?”
“If you stay next to this guy, a lot of fun things will happen!”
Although he was a guy who seemed mysterious because he was deep and could easily handle most situations, Sian’s intentions were actually simple.
‘Is that why?’
“what? “Are you drunk already?”
Unlike Sian, Asuka looked fine.
Asuka generally displayed characteristics that were the opposite of what she appeared to be. The way you speak, the way you act, and the amount of alcohol you drink.
“You can’t get away with two drinks.”
“Then why are you sticking around with Helmut? “What did you like about this guy?”
“Why don’t you have any feelings for me? “They don’t ignore me or cling to me because I’m a commoner, and they help me because I’m a fellow student.”
“So you were moved?”
When Xian asked with a puzzled look, Asuka looked with a straight face.
“Who are you saying was touched or something? “I thought all the guys at Greta Academy were unlucky and just living their mouths, but I found out that there are some who aren’t like that.”
The fact that he didn’t just speak loudly means not only Helmut’s reticence, but also his ability.
“What is it? “Let’s put it that way.”
“Do you seem to be secretly scratching yourself?”
“Have you noticed it now?”
Asuka hissed and placed her hand on the beer glass.
He has never used violence against Sian, who is merciless and harsh towards a guy who is defined as his enemy.
Unless you’re a prosecutor, you don’t know if they don’t lay a hand on someone they’ve accepted into the line.
After a while, Xian ended up sobbing and hitting his head on the table.
“Ugh, I feel like I’m going to die.”
“Are you human enough to taste three glasses of beer?”
Even after going to urinate on her third drink, Asuka was still in good spirits after drinking two more drinks. I don’t think there will be any problem even if I fill ten cups.
Helmut put down his glass. Almost all of the food was gone so my stomach was full and I slowly drank some beer. I didn’t feel intoxicated at all.
Helmut was immune to poison and alcohol. That means that you can’t get drunk at all costs.
“Why don’t you order more?”
“that’s enough. “What about Xian?”
“Should I throw it away? “I don’t have a hobby of carrying men around, and I think you do too.”
Asuka glanced at Zigsisian. It was a look that looked at something very disturbing.
He seemed to have completely forgotten that he was the person who had saved him from a crisis not long ago.
No, it was Helmut who saved me. Sian was just by his side and didn’t do anything.
“Are you going anyway? “Am I paying to come?”
“Let me wake you up first.”
Helmut lifted Xian up and patted her cheek. Although he seemed to be conscious, Sian could not open his eyes.
“My head is going to melt. Gataaaa.”
Asuka, who had entered the store, paid the price and came out with a frown.
“I haven’t lost yet, but look at that. “Let’s just leave it and go.”
The guests began to sit down one by one and giggled when they saw Xian.
“It’s so weak that it falls off. “Why are you drinking so much that you can’t even function?”
It was an exemplary point that it was natural to drink according to the alcohol limit, but Asuka did not drink with alcohol in mind.
First of all, he drank a lot. Even if you drink a lot, you won’t get drunk, so there’s no need to think about that in the first place.
Helmut thought for a moment. It wasn’t the same standard as Asuka, but she also didn’t want to carry a drunk passenger.
In the first place, I have no experience listening to anyone.
Xian suddenly raised his head.
“My pocket.”
“Pockets or something.”
Asuka searched Xian’s pockets. A small vial filled with liquid popped out.
“this?”
“Give me. “I’m going to eat it.”
Asuka, looking at Xian struggling in the air, took the cap off and put the spout of the medicine bottle into Xian’s mouth.
Xian frowned and sucked down the contents.
He put his head back on the table and remained motionless for a moment.
The moment Asuka was about to say let’s go again, Xian suddenly raised his head.
“Okay, let’s go.”
“What, are you sober?”
“I’m weak to alcohol. “I always carry a detox potion with me.”
He speaks confidently like a state party. Xi’an, who had been sagging just a moment ago, instantly became fine. Even getting up and walking seems fine.
Xian spoke in a meaningful tone to Asuka.
“I will never forget your friendship that made you abandon me.”
“No, what…”
Asuka scratched her cheek because it stung. Sian turned to Helmut.
“Yes, loyal friend. Would you like to pass by the downtown area on your way back? “It’s a holiday, so I think they might have gone to the grocery store, but I thought I’d take a look.”
“Have you really become fine?”
“The power of magic is great.”
“okay.”
Helmut agreed.
Come out, get some fresh air, and even have drinks and food. I got a little lost, but it wasn’t bad. I think I could walk around a little more.
It’s not too late yet, so there will be plenty of time to go back and practice.
Soon they entered a downtown area full of stores.
During the holidays, the shops were booming as wealthy students, mainly from the nobility, flocked to Baden’s academies.
In fact, you don’t need that many items in academy life.
However, the students, who were mainly nobles, had the financial resources to spend even things they did not need. For example, expensive designer pajamas.
“Is this where Area bought her pajamas? “It looks like Area pajamas hanging on the shelf over there.”
The colors were different. What was reflected through the window was a pink bear-patterned pajamas. Asuka clicked her tongue.
“You mean he wears pajamas like that with that cold face? “It really doesn’t suit me.”
“Contrary to what you see, I also have delicate hobbies. “Area even grows flower pots in her room.”
“It gives me goosebumps? “Isn’t that for magic experiments?”
“Maybe so.”
Helmut, who presented the flower pot, kept his mouth shut. Even though it is a flower pot, a flower is a flower. It was only later that he learned the meaning of giving flowers as a gift.
‘Well, don’t misunderstand.’
“More than that, teddy bear pajamas are the latest trend. Don’t you know? “I heard a lot of guys from the swordsmanship department also wear it.”
“Those big, muscular guys wear things like that? “My eyes will rot.”
“I’m not going to wander out of the room, so I guess it’ll be okay.”
“Your roommate is going to have a hard time. “Area is at least cute.”
“Are you saying Area is cute?”
“Who said that?”
“Well, I think it’s your first time seeing someone prettier than you.”
“If you keep doing that, you could get beaten up.”
As Asuka’s eyes grew tense, Xian quickly changed his mind.
“Wow, it’s on sale at a special price today only! Should I live too?”
However, when Xian saw the price, he became sullen and turned away.
“It’s too expensive.”
“Alea is a commoner, so how is he rich? Are you from a merchant family?”
“well? Because nothing is known. It could be a family of wizards. “It’s easy for wizards to make money.”
“But why don’t you have money?”
“Because I’m from a rural village?”
“Why don’t you place a basket of coins and have a circus here with your spirits? “I think there will be a lot of people.”
It was a plausible idea. But Sian immediately shook his head.
“I can’t use my precious spirits as a means of making money… Huh?”
Helmut and Asuka simultaneously turned their heads in the direction he pointed out.
“Isn’t that Area?”
Many people were passing by on the street. Aarea’s faintly shining hair was caught through the gap.
Such vivid silver hair is rare.
“That’s right.”
“You refused to come around with us, what happened?”
“I guess you came here to do some shopping. “They say you’re rich.”
While talking, they slowly approached Area.
Area sighed.
The quill I was using had run out, so I had to buy a new one. As I was passing through the shopping street, a luxurious hard-covered notebook on a shelf caught my eye.
It was a mistake to miss the movement of those surrounding him while he was distracted for a moment.
The word “annoyed” was drawn between his eyebrows as he was surrounded by four girls.
“Get out of the way.”
“Alea, don’t be like that, there’s a good store over there, let’s go together!”
“We’ll buy it. What were you looking at?”
“Is it a note? “We will buy it for you.”
Judging by the way they are dressed up in hats, dresses, and jewelry, they are noble ladies. He looks two or three years older than Area.
Greta’s and other academies’ uniforms weren’t bad in design, but they lacked individuality.
I was at an age where I loved decorating. The dress I packed from my hometown is what I wear for outings on holidays.
“Why do you guys buy my stuff?”
“It’s because we wanted to give it as a gift, so you don’t have to feel pressured.”
“Oh, I just wanted to have a cup of tea with Alea…”
“I told you to get out of the way because it wasn’t necessary.”
“Don’t do that…”
Helmut narrowed his eyes. It was a somewhat familiar sight. The only difference was that the target was Area, not him.
No, the attitude was different. Instead of being flirtatious and clingy towards Helmut like that, he acted like he was interrogating a thief who had stolen something.
Sian whistled.
“Wow, women are scary.”
“I’ll take it for free.”
Asuka muttered enviously.
“You’re saying this because you don’t know anything. There is nothing free in this world. “Do you know how extreme he gets when he receives something?”
“I speak from experience. I don’t think something like that will happen to you.”
