Munchkin of the Summoning Academy

C Rank Human Summon Elfriede (7)

The first weekend since the start of the new school year.

I headed to the auditorium to receive the Duke of Beltern’s gift.

As I expected, the ceremonies of the Count of Elcloud were very modest.

Of course, it wasn’t disappointing or anything.

It is to return the land that was confiscated due to lack of management capacity, and it would be more embarrassing if the award ceremony was grand.

Perhaps because of the organizer’s consideration, there are few participants in the auditorium.

It’s just a process, so I feel like I have to do it.

Dressed in a uniform, I walked out to the podium with my summoned beasts.

The person sitting at the edge of the red carpet was none other than Princess Elena.

It seems that he volunteered for the role of conferring the land to me.

You must be busy, but you have a precious weekend.

Surrounded by the bodyguards, she smiled graciously as I thanked myself inwardly.

There was an unprecedented link on the back of the princess holding the long sword to be used in the award ceremony.

A guy who is much thicker and clearer than normal Link.

That’s the link of Esshas, a summon equivalent to the SSS rank.

It is not that she, who has not yet held the succession ceremony, has taken Eshas right away.

In the first place, Eshas is a summoned beast that cannot be monopolized.

Although he possesses a dragon heart that produces infinite magical power.

Eshas, the protector of the kingdom, had a contract with numerous summoners.

Of course, even if it is a contract, it is very different from what most people think.

I don’t know the details, but in the case of Eshas, it seems that the summoner’s side is rather subordinated.

In fact, most summoners are responsible for supplying magic power in case of emergency.

At least he was in a position to speak to Eshas, the master of the Dracor Kingdom.

tell our king

As I watched the magic lines running outside the auditorium, I got up to my mind and went up to the stage.

As I knelt down on one knee, Princess Elena lightly tapped my shoulder and head with her ceremonial sword and proceeded with the award ceremony.

“Louis Elcloud. Will you continue to offer your eternal allegiance to the Eshas and the Dracor royal family as you have always been?”

“Yes.”

A question that once again confirms loyalty to the kingdom.

Of course, no answer other than ‘yes’ was allowed.

When the oath that felt a little boring was over, Silvia, Elfriede, and the summons behind them applauded eagerly.

There’s a bit of a sense of emptiness, but I thought it would end like this…

Elena, who lifted me up, naturally moved to her seat.

Really, it’s a bit embarrassing to go after an award ceremony, so are you going to have a tea party?

But Elena walked out of the auditorium without hesitation.

“Wow, your Majesty the Princess?”

“I’ll be a junior next year anyway, so please feel free to call me. If it’s okay with you, will you guide me to the academy?”

Elena speaks at a high speed as if chasing Sylvia and Elfriede.

Who dares to deny that it is safe?

I was very burdened and explained the facilities in the academy one by one.

I just want to go back after looking around, but Princess Jeon-ha doesn’t get tired of what she enjoys so much, so she heads to the next place.

Even on weekends, it is a very large school, so there are many people.

In addition, the princess’s bodyguards were also attached, so eyes naturally gathered.

She nodded her head hard at the explanation that was not very interesting, and said with a small smile.

“I’m looking back with the Count like this, so I hope next year will come sooner. By the way, you’re really amazing this time? It’s the first time I’ve seen a unanimous agreement at a territorial award meeting attended by all the great families.”

“Yes, yes? What is that…”

As he stuttered because of the unexpected words, Elena smiled and added an explanation as if not to worry about it.

“Originally, there are bound to be unconditional dissenting opinions at the territories conferment meetings. I am not happy to give the lands to a noble other than my own faction… But this time it was unanimous for some reason. Not only Beltern and Collingwood, but also White and Westwall. Until.”

Beltern and Collingwood are the ones who brought up this proposal, so…

White and Westwall are a bit surprising.

I snorted inwardly as I remembered my maternal grandpa’s scruffy face.

Still, looking at Maria, he did not express his feelings.

An attendant approaching Elena, who was about to continue the chat.

From the looks of it, it seems that she is in charge of managing her schedule.

“Your Majesty. Now you have to move to the next place…”

“Hold on a little longer.”

“But it’s already been delayed by 30 minutes.”

After all, I was going to leave after finishing my presentation.

Elena let out a small sigh, grabbed my hand, wiggled her fingers, and reluctantly said goodbye.

“I wanted to be with you a little longer. It’s a pity.”

“Next time again…”

“Yes. Next year, should you guide us a little more relaxedly?”

Elena leaves the place to congratulate the restoration of the estate once again.

As soon as the guards left their seats, Medusha, who narrowed the distance, trembled slightly.

“Persia. That woman is a lot more foxy than you. Were you a fox in the first place?”

“I’m not a cat.”

“…”

Medusha sighed as if she wasn’t expecting a sane answer.

It’s good to have the Count of Elcloud back, but… it’s not like I can go back and rule it right now.

Not much has changed until after graduating from high school.

Princess Elena knew it well, so she said that she would leave the person in charge of the estate as it is.

It might feel a little bit real when you go back to your hometown after winter break.

I went back to the villa with so much anticipation.

The summoned beasts who returned to the villa after a week or so started talking like they were excited.

The villa I received from the Welttern family was large and comfortable, but it was a bit far from the academy.

Even if I ride a horse-drawn carriage to school every day, it feels like a lot of work.

Therefore, I decided to just use the dormitory of the hagwon on weekdays.

It was originally supposed to be back on Friday, but it was delayed a bit due to the recent award ceremony.

During the week, Elfriede, who was staying in the women’s dormitory, follows me closely.

“Wait, the seat next to Lewis is mine…”

Medusha, who was about to push Elfried away with a slightly annoyed expression, looked at the boy’s face and closed her mouth.

As if he had not slept for several days, he was wearing dark circles.

Perhaps he didn’t rest properly for fear of being dragged back to the Demon Realm while he was away from me.

Sylvia is still in my room, but…

The room was too small to get to El Friede.

I didn’t even want to take it in the first place.

I felt sorry for her again, so I quietly scolded her.

“The link is connected anyway, so if something goes wrong, you can immediately notice it…”

“That’s right. I’m sorry.”

“No. I mean, you don’t have to be so anxious.”

Wasn’t he the one who apologized to each other like this?

After thinking for a while, I added a bed to the bedroom as soon as I returned to the villa.

I couldn’t recommend it to Elfriede, but I let him use it if he had a heart.

I’m going back to the academy next Monday, so will the results come out by then?

So that I fall asleep with such thoughts in mind.

As soon as the sun rose the next morning, Elfriede was seen from the empty bed.

It seems like he sneaked in last night.

Next to him were Medusha and Persia, who kept their seats with a slightly annoyed expression on their faces.

I decided to play a little later than usual.

Originally, it was the day I had to take Ersa’s examination, but thanks to the opening of the library during vacation, I was able to get the exemption without difficulty.

As if to make up for the fact that Elfriede had not slept until now, she only woke up at lunchtime.

Fortunately, my summons didn’t say much.

Sylvia, who has always been dissatisfied with her, is quiet for some reason.

Elfriede blushes belatedly after noticing that everyone is staring at her.

We went down to the restaurant as if nothing had happened.

Of course, I didn’t forget to order an additional bed for use in the dormitory of the academy.

After a relaxing and warm weekend, next Monday.

As we started another week, we went to school with a feeling of wanting to die.

Fortunately, today’s first class is a lecture on the psychology of summoned animals, known for its honey.

My classmates are seated with unmotivated expressions as if they are thinking the same thing as me.

I’m worried that it might look familiar to me and Elfriede going together.

Perhaps the Duke of Beltern and his wife were also targeting this.

However, I couldn’t remove Elfriede, so I endured it for a while.

Medusha is already thinking about what to do and play.

As everyone expected, the professor sent us out as soon as we entered the classroom.

But the task that followed was not in anyone’s account.

“Today, we will conduct a special evaluation. Everyone gave the summons a rest during the summer vacation, right? Management of the summons’ condition is one of the basics.

Only then, the professor, who said something obvious, reveals the method of evaluation.

Since it is a class that has an impact on grades, everyone’s concentration is noticeably higher.

“I will give you a small amount of pocket money from now on. Use this to satisfy your summons. If a certain level of happiness is detected, the task is passed.”

As the professor took out a few silver coins and spoke, a summoned beast he had never seen came to mind behind his back.

A monkey pet with a large scale.

He is quite old for a monkey and has a solemn face.

It seems that he is using that guy’s ability to measure the happiness of his summons.

Like the honey lecture, the students who laughed at the fact that the special evaluation was easy change their complexion after receiving pocket money.

The professor gave me only three silver coins.

It is not a very small amount, but it is an amount that feels insufficient for high-ranking pets.

Usually, the higher the level of the summons, the higher the eyes.

“Professor! My summons is Rank A, but with this amount of money…”

“No matter how many summons or what rank, they all get the same amount.”

Only then, the more high-ranked summons you have, the more difficult the task becomes.

Thanks to this, Elfriede’s complexion naturally darkened.

Thanks to the timely control of her summons, she was able to protect them even in the Demon Realm…

Aside from that, his confidence has gone down a lot.

Of course, I am not worried about her.

Didn’t I only have two S ranks?

If you separate Ethel and Laurie, they are three.

“Wow, in that case, El Cloud…”

ruined.

The fortress kids are well fed and well-dressed, so they won’t fill the castle with anything but three silver coins.

My rivals were showing their good looks.

The professor’s summons pointed the scales at Medusha, and then nodded lightly.

“Well, pass.”

“What?”

“I haven’t done anything yet…”

“Happiness has already exceeded the threshold. You’ve always been satisfying your summons. You’re a great summoner.”

Hearing the monkey’s praise, he passed the evaluation lightly.

I wondered if the standard was lower than my expectations, but no one other than me has passed.

It seems that it was not in vain to feed and dress well with Beltern’s money.

As I wiped my chest, Elfriede tightly closed her eyes.

I have already received the funds, so all I have to do is summon the summoners…

He seems to have no self-confidence.

Medusha, who saw it, beat her chest as if frustrated.

“What are you doing? Call me quickly.”

“But, it can’t be. My summons suffered hardships in the Demon Realm because of me… I won’t be the heir to Beltern in a while.

Rather than resenting Steno and her child, the tone was closer to blaming herself.

Instead of comforting her, Medusha gets annoyed by the road running wild.

“What about that? Do you know that we came down to this land to enjoy what wealth and glory?”

“yes?”

“I haven’t liked you for a long time. Don’t be cocky. All the summons that can be used as the main body of Beltern are those who were revered as heroes or kings in their own dimension. Whatever you present to them is the same!”

Medusha starts pouring out the words she had been holding back while acting as her summoner.

No, actually, as I said before that, Elfriede must have shed it on the back of her ear.

Medusha doesn’t have the patience to put the words she wants to say.

For some reason, Elfriede stood still and listened to her.

“Do you really feel like a boss when you call me as a lady, do you really feel like a boss? Actually, it doesn’t make much of a difference whether you eat something for a snack! In most cases, you get tired of eating delicious food in your hometown, do everything you want, and then come here. Bird eggs from Lewis are much tastier than dinner dishes.”

“What…”

Since he wasn’t a volume control guy, everyone around him looked towards him.

no. At first, it seemed like he was speaking deliberately so that everyone could hear it.

Classmates who can’t miss the sights even though the evaluation has already started.

Even the professor is looking at this with interest.

Medusha threatened the former summoner in front of them.

“There are plenty of guys in the world who are smarter than you. We don’t want a summoner who is the best in every way. But we have to at least make them want to cheer like Lewis. We need to show you all your hard work and progress so that we can help too.” Isn’t it?”

When Medusha asks for consent, Ethel and Laurier nod their heads coldly.

“Yes. Actually, we also received a summons request from Eshas, but we ignored it. What’s the point in becoming a summoner like a guardian dragon of the kingdom? Louise is much more interesting than that.”

“That’s right. Now that I see, Eshas has less magical power than Louise? Oh, well, that’s not really important…”

I think I just heard something very important, but I decided to inquire later.

Fortunately, the other students missed Laurie’s murmur.

Medusha, who proudly held out her chest, wraps up her Japanese speech.

“There’s no need to blame yourself for not being able to get better until now. It’ll just get better in the future. There’s no way it’s going to get worse for you anyway.”

Is he cursing or comforting him?

Fortunately, Elfriede seems to have accepted the latter.

She nodded with a tearful face and ran out of the academy, clutching the three silver coins and the Summoner’s Book.

I followed her leisurely after a little interval.
