The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

98. Sortie! Tetise! (One)

“Ethan’s ring has Lynchester’s seal on it.”

Tia opened her mouth with the feeling of trying to sneak a peek. It was something that Sylvia had no need to deny.

“okay. I gave it to Ethan. What is that?”

“Recently, I heard that Professor Sylvia was getting married in a social circle.”

So, the question was, did Ethan and marriage come and go? There was no way Sylvia, who was quick-witted, could not understand that.

“It’s already rumored in the social world. After all, it’s better to stay away from social circles… . Ah, Tia, I’m not talking about you.”

“Yes, I know. Still, I’m personally curious.”

“It is true. A marriage went back and forth between Ethan and me.”

Ethan rolled his eyes back and forth between the two women. He had to step in and explain the details, but he had the right timing.

“My father was the principal. It seems that he wanted to marry his only daughter in a hurry. Both Ethan and I were very embarrassed.”

Tia swallowed dryly.

‘Really, the head of the Lynchester family arranged it himself?’

It seemed that Ethan was recognized by the head of Lynchester more than he thought.

“So what happened?”

“I declined.”

I didn’t want to tell a long and detailed story. However, Tia somehow had a persistent corner.

“Is that all?”

Sylvia blinked several times. Only then did Tia realize that she had made a mistake.

If I wasn’t interested, I wouldn’t have asked this way.

‘Huh, that’s cute. This kid seems to like Ethan quite a bit.’

Somehow, I thought it was cute rather than jealous. No matter how mature she is, Tia was also a girl of her age.

“The day Ethan became stronger than me, I decided to give him my heart. The deadline is three years.”

Within 3 years, Ethan becomes stronger than Sylvia.

If anyone had heard of it, they would have thought that Sylvia had no feelings for Ethan at all. It was just as difficult for a freshman at Nadia Academy to surpass Sylvia in three years.

However, Tia’s thoughts were different.

Tia diligently calculated several possibilities.

‘At Ethan’s growth rate, he’ll surpass Professor Sylvia in three years. However, Professor Sylvia’s swordsmanship is also improving day by day, so it won’t be easy to catch up.’

Of course, Tia was well aware of the weak point of this condition. Being stronger than Sylvia meant defeating Sylvia in a showdown.

So, in the confrontation, if Sylvia liked Edan, it was enough for her to lose in moderation.

‘If you think about it like that, the deadline is really short… .’

I felt impatience. But Tia didn’t show it this time.

“okay.”

“It is true. Now Master, let’s get up. I have work to do.”

I would have liked to have more conversations since I hadn’t seen him in a while, but I had to prepare for the lecture the next day.

“Are you awake already?”

“Yes. I will wake up first. The tea drank well. The pancakes are also delicious. The kids are cute too.”

Sylvia gave a warm smile while looking at Hesia. Hessia, hiding behind Edan, rolled her eyes here and there.

‘That woman is higher in rank than Edan… ?’

Even if it was a hatchling, Hessia was, of course, a child. A child who believes that his father is the best. It was the first time I had seen someone higher in rank than Edan.

Naturally, this formula was established.

Hesia＞Sylvia＞Ethan＞The rest

Ethan greeted Sylvia outside the building. On an autumn night, the sound of a grasshopper crying came from somewhere.

“Dude, it was fun. Go in.”

“Master, take a look.”

“Dana… . Wait, come here.”

Could it be that you sensed even the faintest magic? I felt a sense of tension. My feet go numb when I do bad things, but it was just that.

“Well, why is that… ?”

Ethan hesitantly approached Sylvia. Sylvia laughed once and hugged Ethan.

‘You are mine. Danah. Tia, although that child is cute, I have no intention of losing her unilaterally.’

Ethan’s eyes widened at the sudden embrace. In that state, Sylvia stroked Ethan’s hair.

I felt like a child, but I didn’t feel too bad.

“That, Master… . It’s a bit sudden… .”

“So you don’t like it?”

“It’s not that I hate it… .”

Rather good. Sylvia’s arms emanated a faint herbal scent.

“Whoops, kid. It’s a special award given to me for catching mines during vacation.”

Ethan had a strange imagination while being held in Sylvia’s arms.

“Now go in for real.”

Ethan, who returned from welcoming Master, was exhausted. I couldn’t relax even for a moment until the end.

If Master emits murderous intent, he will detect it with his ‘super combat intuition’, but detecting it and avoiding it are two different things.

It was such a fraudulent skill, but the level of super intuition in battle was not high either.

When I returned, Tia was still sitting quietly in the living room.

“I think you are a good teacher.”

“yes. You are a good teacher.”

“Ah, Ethan. My hobby is writing lyrics and composing, but that… , I have something I want to ask you.”

It was the festival period of the academy.

When it comes to academy, of course, festivals couldn’t be left out. It is certain that this festival is quite a big event even if it is not the main event of the second semester.

The festival itself was quite large.

There are even nobles who come from afar to see Nea’s festival.

In the first place, Istvan was the largest city in the eastern region along with Lognesban. In addition, Nea has a close agreement with Istvan.

It is no exaggeration to say that the money spent by academy students accounts for a large portion of the city’s economy.

On the other hand, during the festival, the citizens of Istvaan come to the academy with money.

Nadia’s festival lasts a week in total.

In the meantime, the doors of the academy are open to outsiders. Of course, citizens could laugh and talk on the academy’s warrior candidates and on campus.

Even now, I could see the citizens who had entered the academy. Everyone looked at the fort here and there with curious eyes.

“It’s a festival. It has nothing to do with me.”

I grumbled as I stretched all the way. I was the one who didn’t participate well even in college festivals.

“Ah-uh-oh, ah- try it.”

Ariane from the side scooped a spoonful of white ice cream. Arthur gave a troubled laugh.

Arthur and Arianne seemed to be reunited.

Since we never broke up in the first place, I don’t know if we can call that meeting again.

“No, Anne here… .”

“Arthur, my hand hurts. Hurry up and do it.”

In the end, Arthur received and ate the ice cream with Ariane on it.

After Arthur and Arianne dated, the female students who secretly liked Arthur must have shed bloody tears.

The news that Arthur had a lover must have been a thunderbolt itself. Besides, if the lover was a childhood friend from the same town, he said everything.

Even if those who have unrequited love fight against Anne, they have no chance of winning.

‘By the way, these guys do more chicken meat than the original.’

Probably because there is no Hessia between the two.

And now, Hessia stuck by my side.

In the original work, the festival passes in the form of daily episodes that are enjoyed lightly. To put it simply, it’s an episode where Arthur and Arianne date.

It was an episode where Anne, who suddenly rolled in, beat all the heroines and became a candidate for the royal family.

‘What are the demons doing? I’m not catching a couple. If you’re going to attack, now is the right time… .’

The gates of the academy are also wide open. This is the perfect time for terrorism or kidnapping.

It’s an opportunity that only comes once a year.

Of course, during the festival, the boundaries of the academy are further strengthened. The number of troops deployed on the campus was twice as large as usual.

Some are hidden in plain clothes to detect demons.

The festival period is a daily episode in the original work, but since the original story line was different, it was unknown what kind of magic would hide.

furthermore.

‘Now is the time for demons who can’t figure out their identity just by detecting demons to appear.’

For that reason, half of the undead army and Rien were attached to Hesia. But first of all, Hessia also brought her because she wanted to go to the festival.

“Ethan, drink this!”

Hessia was smiling broadly. With a lot of ice cream on your lips.

“Is it that delicious?”

“Ugh! It’s so good!”

I wiped Hesia’s mouth with a handkerchief.

Currently, Hessia is holding cotton candy in one hand and a cone of vanilla ice cream in the other.

I’m buying a lot of food for Hesia during the festival. It means that Hessia is buying everything Hesiah asks for without reservations.

“I’ll give you a bite too, Ethan.”

“thank you.”

My sister-in-law takes care of me like this. When I was buying ice cream earlier, he even asked me if I didn’t eat it.

“Ah, Ethan. Are you going to see the show today?”

“show? ah… .”

To be honest, I want to go home early and get some rest. Do I really need to see the talent show of academy candidates?

Also, between the Arthur & Anne couple.

Whoops.

Just in time, the crystal ball vibrated once. It was a call from Sepia.

[Ethan, are you going to see the performance today?]

[show? Well.]

[Ah, are you not going to see it? It’s an opportunity that comes only once a year.]

I pondered for a while. I was shocked to hear that it was only once a year.

[Wouldn’t it be nice to watch a performance with Hessia… ?]

[But you have to make a reservation to see it properly.]

Academy festival performances are more popular than expected. Citizens can watch the talent show of the warrior candidates.

That’s how all kinds of talent brags appear.

Power show, magic show, sword dance, spearmanship, telekinesis show, etc.

From the point of view of the same candidate, it was not very strange, but it seems to be different in the eyes of the general public.

For that reason, concert tickets are sold quite expensive. Of course, most of the proceeds go to the candidates.

In order to enjoy the festival, academy students are given free tickets in the last row of the concert hall.

[I made a reservation.]

[reservation? suddenly? Where is the heat?]

[Column A.]

If you’re in row A, you’re at the front.

[So don’t be late and come!]

[…] Yes, I understand.]

The call ended with a pop. Arthur, who was listening to my call, asked.

“Are you Sepia? What did you say?”

“Yes, sepia. I heard you’re going to see a performance with Hesia?”

“Then, I think it would be better to go there.”

Ariane was still using the ‘danaka’ tone at me. When Arthur asked why, he said it was because he had received too much grace.

Actually, it’s because I’m afraid.

“What about you guys?”

“We are going on a date outside.”

“Well, okay.”

For that reason, Hessia and I visited the concert hall.

When I called the entrance guard for reserved seats, row A was reserved in my name and Hessia’s name.

“Have a good time.”

The dark venue was no different from a concert hall. It was equipped with a large screen and speakers.

Hessia was sitting next to me, crunching popcorn. I waited for Sepia just in case, but Sepia didn’t come.

Even texting, there was no answer.

‘Did you make a reservation for me and Hessia to see it?’

Just then, the stage that had been covered by the red curtain was revealed. And the performance began.

The power show, the telekinetic power show, and the sword dance passed by.

The words were char and telekinesis, but in reality it was just a show using magic. A magic show in front of the dragon, the master of magic. I thought it was no different from a joke party.

Fortunately, Hessia liked it. Concentrating on the performance increased the speed of eating Hesia’s popcorn.

Hessia opened her eyes wide as if she would be sucked into the concert hall.

Soon, the performance came to an end.

“Now, the long-awaited final performance! This time, the team prepared dance and song. I look forward to it.”

When I heard that line, I had one thought. How good are you at dancing and singing?

Dancing and singing at a performance seen by the general public. Unless you were good at dancing and singing, you didn’t have much merit.

“Tim, ＜Tetise＞! Please come up on stage!”

The last team came up with applause. Hessia smiled and pointed to the stage.

“Ethan, look over there. Sepia, Tesha, Tiaya!”

I involuntarily opened my mouth wide.

No, why are you guys out there?

Could it be that Tetise is an abbreviation for Tesha, Tia, and Sepia?

Soon, the familiar prelude that I heard somewhere came out. The detailed melody is different, but I felt like I knew what the song was just by listening to the prelude.

“Tetise is calling! ＜Reunited world＞!”
