Akuyaku Reijou ni Nanka Narimasen - Chapter 427 (Patreon)

Rinka and the Magic House.
Rinka’s Point of View
Ernst, also known as Erurun, occasionally invites me to the Magic Academy. It seems Erurun is interested in talisman magic. The former head of the Magic Academy looks like a creep, so I don't want to meet them. They're a pervert.

※ They're just hyperventilating because they're excited about rare magic. It's not a sexual excitement, but they're still a pervert.

When I was going to the Magic Academy for the first time, Rosarin-chan told me,

"Listen up! The Magic Academy is a den of weirdos, eccentrics, and perverts, so never accept food or drinks from anyone other than Ernst or my Niisama!"

"Well, I'm not a little kid, so I won't tag along—”You don’t know what they mixed in, so don’t regret it."

“...... I won’t accept anything!!”

The Magic Academy is a scary place. It's weird that she assumes that foreign substances will be mixed in!!

The Magic Academy is full of magic-related traps, so it's good for the training of my Revelation. There aren't any dangerous traps that can actually take lives, so I feel at ease.

"Alright, let's disarm this..."

"Tsk."

Someone just clicked their tongue. It's scary! Who was that? Who just clicked their tongue?! I take back what I said earlier! The Magic Academy is a scary place!!

"What are you doing?"

"Disarming a trap."

"Ahh... I see. Be careful not to disarm too many, or their level will increase.”

"... Level?"

"Those whose traps get disarmed unnecessarily tend to get all fired up, so they make sure they can’t be disarmed again."

"............... Seriously? Um, are there any stoppers here?"

"Do you think there would be any stoppers if that were the case?"

"I don't think so!"

Erurun looked serious. Well, it seems there are no brakes at the Magic Academy.

Oh, there was a Knight I didn’t know caught in a trap. I helped them.

Oh, there was a (I’m guessing) merchant I didn’t recognize...

Oh, there was an unfamiliar……….…

"I've had enough of this!!"

I finally lost my temper. What's going on! Seriously!

"Just leave it be."

"No way!"

I became reckless and started disarming traps one after another and setting reverse traps, which means traps that would catch those who tried to set traps.

"Are you feeling better now?"

"... Yes."

It took quite some time. Sorry for keeping you waiting, Erurun.

"But it's interesting, isn't it? There's no waste."

"That so?"

Erurun seemed to be enjoying passing magic through talismans and appraising them. I answered questions and made talismans in front of him.

While we were peacefully discussing talisman magic, there was a loud explosion. Huh? An explosion?

“”............””

And from where the explosion occurred, there was a huge Kurarin……... Ehh?? There were Kurarin’s round eyes staring at us.

"Kurariiin!!?"

"Rinkaaaaa!!"

Hey! The window shattered with her roar!? Kurarin, you're enormous! Your head is sticking out from the roof! The Magic Academy is on the verge of destruction!

"Who the heck conducted a human experiment?!"

Fortunately, Erurun was able to dispel the magic, and everything turned out fine... the building was effortlessly repaired with magic... The Magic Academy is a scary place.

I was shocked by Big Kurarin... Bigurarin, doesn’t sound cool or anything!

And on the way back... I had forgotten about my Revelation and its effects.

"Hiyaaaaaaah!"

"Nuoooohhh!?"

"S-Save meeeee!"

"Oh."

"... Impressive, Rinka. Those old guys are specialists in magic traps."

"Huh?"

"You are amazing!"

"Really?"

"They were causing trouble for us, and they even taunted us, saying that if we are annoyed, we should try trapping them too...! Serves them right!"

"Ehhh?"

"Thank you, Rinka-san... No, Rinka-sama!"

"Ueeeeh??"

"As expected of the Hero-sama! Hail Hero Rinka-sama!"

"Hero Rinka-sama!"

"Rinka-samaaa!"

"What? Wait, Hero Rinka... No, stop... We should help those people..."

"It's good medicine, so leave them as they are."

It was as if they had practiced it, everyone's voices were perfectly in sync. Everyone had such bright smiles. I wonder just how much those old guys were resented. In the end, the old guys were left covered in a gooey natto-like substance, hanging in the air, or wrapped up like sushi rolls. Everyone assured me they would help them properly later, so I trusted them and left them alone.

"... That's what happened."

When I told Lavi-kun, he made a displeased face.

"Rinka, try not to go to the Magic Academy too often."

"Huh? Well, if I don't have a reason, I won't go."

"... I worry about you, Rinka."

“Ah, yes…”

Please don't say things that make me feel so embarrassed! My heart is pounding!"

"...? What's wrong? Your face is red... Could it be poison!?"

Hey! He just touched my forehead! You're supposed to check the pulse at the wrist, not on the forehead! At least, please use the wrist!

"I-It's your fault, Lavi-kun!!"

"?"

"We're close! It's a distance where we can kiss! I mean, I just got embarrassed and blushed because someone I like was worried about me! I didn't eat or drink anything at the Magic Academy!"

"Close?...!! Why didn't you say so sooner!"

Once Lavi-kun understood the situation, he quickly moved away.

"... Why do you make such a sad face?"

"Well, we're close, and it's embarrassing but also kind of nice... It's just that I'd feel lonely if you moved away..."

Even if I'm a bit of a rotten girl, a maiden's heart is complicated.

Lavi-kun came over and sat next to me. He smiled gently, and I blushed even more. It's all in good fun.

After that, we held hands and had some silly conversations, but Lavi-kun listened attentively.

P.S.: The old guys who got caught in the traps were still caught the next day. Um... someone did release them yesterday, right? It's just a coincidence that they were in the same place as yesterday, right??

Anyway, once I released them, the old guys ran away.

The Magic Academy is a scary place.
