Munchkin of the Summoning Academy

C-rank human race pet Elfriede (5)

Waking up from the ridiculously soft bed, I yawned while fiddling with the Persia sitting next to me.

During the mid-to-late summer vacation, I rested quite comfortably, but as soon as I returned to the capital, various things happened, so I was tired for nothing.

It’s a bit laggy already, but I can’t go back to the academy right now anyway.

The link formed between Elfriede and me.

You can’t even get out of this mansion until you hide it.

No matter how much I decided to take on Elfriede, I couldn’t say that she and I had officially signed a contract.

When it becomes known that she signed a contract, she will wonder why she did it, and then she may be found out for breaking taboos.

Still, the duke’s vassals said they’d find a way, so it’ll be fine soon.

If you use the power of the Duke of Beltern, you will be able to create an artifact that hides the link without difficulty.

While stroking Persia’s ear and chin, I made eye contact with Laurie, who was lying not far away.

Ethel and Laurier tried to get used to human life, but there were still many shortcomings.

Still, I’m glad I didn’t burn or freeze the surrounding area.

Something came to mind, so I asked carefully.

“Laurie. Can you make an Essence of Ice?”

“The Essence of Ice?”

“Yeah. It’s a material for a winter fox to be promoted…”

When he spoke while sticking out Persia’s tail, Laurie quickly understood.

Ethel, who was next to me, also showed interest, and Medusha, who was entangled in me, slowly opened her eyes.

“Is it a collection of pure cold air? It’s not that difficult. I think you can pull out about one a day?”

“What?”

No matter how high-ranking spirit it is.

How can you make in one day what winter foxes can barely make by investing ten years in one?

It is also at a level that is unmatched in terms of manipulation of cold air.

The party, Persia, pricked up her ears and welcomed the good news.

“Master, can I become an S rank then?”

“What? No. I can’t do it right now.”

“Yes? Then why did you ask?”

Rarely, Persia rushes in like a stalker.

I grinned and turned him over.

When I scratch my stomach as it is, my tail wobbles.

“If you have one more tail here, it’s an S-rank. But if you only have three S-ranks, what are you going to do with your academy life?”

“ah…”

During the first semester, Persia was in charge of all subjects that Medusa was bothered by or difficult to participate in.

In fact, even if the ranks of the summons are too high, it is difficult to use them comfortably.

Right now, A-rank top-notch Persia is much more useful than S-rank Persia.

Persia, who understood the situation, grunted a little.

“Now that you have a C rank.”

“How am I supposed to treat Elfriede in front of others…”

It would be fun to have him ask for a disc, but I decided to quit after seeing the Duke of Beltern’s face.

When I left the room to eat breakfast and lunch after rolling around in bed, I saw Elfriede sitting across from me.

Apparently he was waiting for me to come out.

Thanks to the guy’s joining, the atmosphere almost got a little awkward, but fortunately or unfortunately, my summons weren’t so stiff.

“Did you sleep well, Elfriede? After all, the duke’s bed is wonderful.”

As Medusha spoke up slightly, Elfriede chewed her lips and nodded her head.

After looking around the villa for a while, we entered the restaurant.

Watching the most plausible dishes come out in the morning, the guy is restless, unable to even sit next to him.

When I asked why, the answer came back beyond my imagination.

“What do you do when you get up?”

“Uh, where can I sit, sir?”

“What?”

“I made the lowest rank among the summons eat on the floor…”

I clicked my tongue at Elfriede’s answer.

It’s not highly recommended… but organizing the sequences in that way is a way to do it.

Medusha, who took the seat next to me, smiles mischievously and glances at the floor.

“Yeah. C-rank pets can’t use the same table as S-ranks.”

“Just sit back and…”

Medusha doesn’t say anything even though she rubs her mouth when she disturbs me.

Although I’ve been given the whole villa as a gift… Still, it’s a bit odd to treat Welttern’s only daughter that way in a place built by the Welttern family.

All of the people working here in the first place belong to Beltern.

As I start eating with difficulty, the spirit sisters push various plates in front of me.

They couldn’t eat the same food as humans, so they used to taste food by sharing their senses through links.

In other words. In order for them to taste it, I, the summoner, must eat it.

Thanks to this, my weight has increased quite a bit in a month.

“Louis, this pudding looks delicious.”

“And then this ice cream!”

I can’t go out anyway, so I’ll have to eat all of this and work out hard.

With that in mind, I shoved the snack the spirits wanted to taste.

Fortunately, the chef’s skills were good, so it wasn’t too painful.

Elfriede also eats quite well, probably because she has been starving for several days in the Demon Realm.

After finishing the meal and looking around the villa, Persia’s tail shook violently.

Unlike El Cloud Mansion, it was built for pure recreational and residential purposes.

Thanks to this, various convenient facilities are packed in the place where the cemetery or library would be.

Not only a swimming pool filled with hot water, but also a dressing room filled with only clothes, a large auditorium that you don’t know what it was built for, and so on.

Thanks to this, by the time the reconnaissance was over, Sylvia was completely exhausted.

Summoned beasts make a fuss about it, but she seems to be a little disturbed.

“I’ve heard of it, but I’m sure he’d be this wealthy…”

“Is it better to just use the dormitory?”

“That’s not possible. Going to the master’s room alone is different from taking Elfriede with me.”

At the moment when a pinzan saying, ‘You can just use the girls’ dormitory…’ was about to come out of her throat.

A servant approached from the villa’s gate.

She stopped politely in front of Elfriede and held a small necklace in her hand.

The design is plain, but it is an unquestioned artifact.

“This is a gift from the Duke.”

“Ah… thank you.”

It’s only been 24 hours, but is it already finished?

As I was sticking out my tongue slightly, Elfriede brushed the back of her hair and put on the necklace.

Immediately after, the link connecting her and me naturally melted into the air.

Elfriede trembles in fear of being dragged into the Demon Realm again.

Fortunately, it was just made invisible, so there was no such incident.

All functions of the link are working normally.

“Sylvia, can you see me?”

“No… I can’t see it either. You won’t know unless you touch it or see it. It’s a nice artifact.”

Seeing that Sylvia, who had trained her senses under the handmaiden, didn’t even notice, so it would be okay to go to the academy as it is.

As I breathe a sigh of relief, Elfriede exhales again in an awkward voice.

“Lord, lord…”

“You just call me by my first name. You’re not going to do that at the academy.”

“Ah… that, I see. Yo.”

Elfriede nodded her head hard, even though she didn’t know what she had heard from the Duchess.

Medusha, who had been aiming for this moment since morning, made a fresh suggestion.

“Then can you go out in front of others now? Louise, let’s enjoy the concert.”

“Concert? Suddenly?”

Second to what I allow.

Shouldn’t we first find out about the concert schedule?

Seriously, it should take a day or two for Medusha to come out recklessly.

There is still some time left until the sun goes down anyway.

There was nothing to do right now, so when I nodded, Medusha gave Elfriede a quick glance.

Then, Elfriede calls one of the servants and tells him to gossip.

Apparently, they made me buy tickets to the concert hall.

If Elfriede is with you, you can use Beltern’s fortune, so you’ll have a lot of money.

With that in mind, when I move to get ready to go out, Medusa tilts her head as if she were doing something.

“Louis. Where are you going all of a sudden?”

“You want to go to a concert?”

“Huh? Why do you leave the house when you’re enjoying the concert?”

“What?”

I was reacting stupidly because communication wasn’t working properly.

The door to the villa opened, and people with large and small musical instruments rushed in.

Showing their heads bowed to me and Elfriede, they quickly move to the auditorium.

At this point, it seems like you know.

I asked in a very dazed mood.

“Did you bring the band here? We’re not going to the theater?”

“Yeah! They are musicians belonging to the grand concert hall owned by the Beltern Company. They are the elites who are also mobilized for royal events.”

“…”

It’s no wonder it doesn’t make sense.

At first, the scale of the idea was different.

How much does it cost to bring such an orchestra to your home?

As I was thinking about that, the spirits moving to the auditorium began to chatter with excitement.

“A concert. Don’t you think it would be so much fun?”

“It might be a little too luxurious for Ethel…”

“Well, let’s see.”

When he moved to the auditorium following the confident Guo Medusa, the attendants of the villa had their seats prepared in advance.

A cart with a variety of snacks in a spacious and comfortable dedicated chair.

We even prepared a massage for you during the performance.

Eventually, the band enters and greets them formally.

He bowed his head to me and Elfriede, and started playing at a surprising volume.

As soon as the overture was over, Medusha immediately placed the order.

It’s a way of designating the song she’s going to play.

Persia, who had overheard the spell from the nape of his neck, was slightly startled.

“Next, let’s play ‘Medusha’!”

“Is there a song named after Medusa-sama?”

“Of course! It’s a song that can only be played in front of me. Know it as an honor.”

“…”

It seems that he enjoys the atmosphere for himself rather than the performance itself.

Up until now, I thought that Medusha was given as much luxury as possible…

From his point of view, he lived a very simple life.

Ethel and Laurie don’t seem to have had a bad experience with this, but for some reason they are calm.

‘Medusha’, which was played afterward, was a surprisingly good song.

Gradually, I was also feeling a sense of loss, and Medusha placed the next spell.

“This time, it was decided to use the duke’s summoning technique.”

“What kind of songs are there…”

I gave a small pint glass so that the band wouldn’t hear it, and Elfriede, who was sitting next to him, tightly closed his eyes.

It seems shameful too.

After enjoying the magnificent orchestra as it is, escape the auditorium.

After that, I used Beltern’s money to satisfy my summons.

After enjoying the luxury of being unfamiliar with the body, when I came to my senses, the second semester had already begun.

The Duke of Welttern, who had succeeded in changing the rules, sent me a message.

“Louis, the news is that you will be confermenting the Count of El Cloud in a week!”

“okay?”

My guess is that the ceremony won’t be very grand.

It is to re-grant territories that were confiscated due to lack of management capacity in the first place…

Right now, I can’t even manage the estate.

Anyway, while I’m at the academy, I’ll have to keep using the agent appointed by the royal family.

Still, the thought of being able to reclaim the family estate made me feel better.

After receiving the bad news, we left the villa and moved to the academy in a short time.

As if being conscious of the gaze of others, Elfriede opened the distance a little from me.

Still, it wasn’t too far off, just in case.

Feeling the constant discomfort, check the timetable, attend a guided lecture, and have lunch.

The rain until the next lecture was a bit long, so I was going to the club room, but Elfriede asked carefully.

“I… Louise. Why didn’t you come to the class?”

“That’s because you were there.”

“ah.”

I thought it would be a shame to reciprocate unintentionally.

Did you just do something bad?

Still, I can’t go to the studio now.

If you go there, you will have to look more closely at others.

I wondered if I could take Elfriede to the nap club’s club room, but…

She doesn’t seem to want to leave me.

I went there thinking that it would be good if I could get permission somehow, but the building with the club room was very crowded.

It’s the first day of the semester, so did everyone come to say hello?

I make assumptions like that and move on…

Including the professor in charge, the front of the club room of the nap club, which had a capacity of 5 people, was no joke.

“what?”

“What the hell is the napping club doing?”

“Is it okay for such an unidentified club to occupy the insufficient space?”

“If you’re sane, hand over the club room!”

Oh my gosh.

I instinctively went back the way I had come.

Our cozy home was completely surrounded by angry minor clubs.

Wasn’t the napping too rude?

That’d be a good name for it…

As I was scolding Christine inside, Elfriede, who was trembling from the side, cautiously stepped out.

“Hey master… No, Louise. My, shall I fix it?”

“What?”

As I looked puzzled, she clenched her fists and asked again.

“Trust me, only me.”

“Thank you, but let’s look at the situation a bit more…”

The name of Beltern could be put forward a little later.

When I hesitate, Elfriede shows a sullen look.

Sylvia, with a small tongue, took us to the back of the club building.

“It’s just going up the wall. I’ll help.”

“then…”

As if she is not confident in rock climbing, Elfriede is crying.

I decided to follow Sylvia’s opinion after returning her to the book.
