Master SSS-Class Magic Swordsman

Let's take a look at the hideout120.

The factional insolvency of the 10 aristocratic powers is very large.

There are insolvencies (though not already insolvencies) for such forces all over the academy.

But if there is one thing that stands out -

“Each of the great factions continued to use the poor room used by the previous generation.”

“Well, it’s worth it. You can't build or give away a new building every time a member of a great faction comes back. Recycling would be more manageable.”

It wasn't a very famous thing to continue using the poor room, and Jessica didn't seem to notice either.

Overseas invited students such as beasts and elves also come regularly every year, so they continue to use the poor room.

Even the insolvency of the blue wolf faction that Eud went to must have been inherited and used by the ancestors.

“Ah, the Radarusne Ragnaril family hardly attended the Academy, so they say they have a new insolvency this time!”

“In the case of True and Lenian… I heard that Deut-nim was at the academy before, so I must have received the one I had written before.”

Furniture also usually receives what is inside, and if necessary, it appears to be newly acquired through the faction security.

‘DES-nim must have had a bad faction too.’

If we ever meet, we'll ask, Eud thought lightly.

First of all, it was going secretly, so the three siblings, Jessica, and Suga - decided to move only with the five of us.

Since the academy is closed, it's impossible to know where everyone is right away.

Besides, Firti secretly lent the key, so he had to return it within two hours.

It is said that it will take some time for the student council president Howard to return.

There was still about an hour left.

In fact, it is said that Firti lent the key, but when Eud heard it, it was a little force majeure.

Originally, Tiana and Selena went to the student council room,

It was part of reporting yesterday's incident and faction progress-

(“What!? There was already an insolvency assigned to Phoenix!?”)

(“Yes, yes…! Of course, you can go after you have completed the formal procedures-”)

(“I want to see you, I want to see you. Firti, I miss you, I miss you.”)

(“Huh? We’re just going to come and see? Huh? We’ll be going soon anyway, just a little bit! Please allow a little bit, okay?”)

(“-Ah, really! When you both look at me like that, you can’t say no to me! Really…!

In the midst of a sneak peek about the faction's insolvency, it seems that the two older sisters took it from Firti. Along with him, a map showing the road to bankruptcy.

....... When two older sisters make a request with their eyes twinkling, it's hard to refuse. Pirti couldn't help it either.

Eud wanted to go and buy Firti a gift to apologize later.

In any case, it was borrowed thanks to the two sisters' strife, so Euddo was determined to keep his promise on time.

“By the way, there was an insolvency that my father used. I really didn't know this..."

“I mean, my dad doesn’t even say anything about this!”

As Tiana spoke up, Eud and Selena looked at each other.

“……Tiana. You are my father.”

“You’re my father, Tiana.”

“My dad’s rough attention……!”

Even after three years, the phoenix head's carelessness was still there.

***

So, following the map Firti gave, everyone continued walking.

keep going- keep going

.......

“Hey… there’s not much difference between this map and the actual street…?”

Tiana, who looked at the map that Eud was holding, barely pointed it out.

Well, maybe everyone was trying to get the story out of the way.

It didn't look that far on the map, but when I walked it, it was quite a distance.

“When Firti gave me the map earlier, he said that it was a map drawn by a former member of the Phoenix faction.”

“I don’t know who ‘who’ it is, but it looks like it was drawn roughly…! Now that I think about it, it seems that this map was also scrambled on paper with a pen...!"

“…No, I don’t think that’s necessarily the case.”

““???””

“Ah, I think it’s true that I drew it roughly.”

As the two older sisters tilted their heads, Suga looked around the map and said,

“It’s still rough, but it seems to have its own characteristics. For example, the clock tower seen from here. Like that pen-shaped academy sculpture. Also—the biggest tree over there.”

"Oh really. Do you have everything?”

“My drawing skills are strange, but strange details......”

Also, on the roughly drawn walking picture, a surprisingly realistic block pattern is engraved.

It was clearly engraved on the map that the whole area was a paved walk.

At the destination, there is even a picture of an old-fashioned (probably intended) two-story building.

Perhaps a 'map' rather than a map.

And Eud had seen this kind of map many times in the past.

“-Now it looks like a dungeon map, Master Eud. The dungeon map is very difficult to get a sense of distance. Instead, the surrounding features and circumstances should be drawn so that they can be recognized.”

“Oh, Jessica, I thought of that too.”

Eud and Jessica, who have experience in dungeon raids, chuckled at each other.

Meanwhile, Eud got a rough idea of ​​who drew this map.

It looks like it was drawn roughly on rough paper, but the key is the drawing.

The personality of the ‘golden knight’ was revealed.

That's because it's so far away.

Even if Phoenix had suffered a bad faction in advance, it would have been difficult for the Black Lion faction to find it.

For no reason, Caltus' words passed through Eud's head, "Gather in the insolvent faction and make friends with the members, the three Phoenix siblings!!"

.......If it was far from the dormitory or other buildings, wouldn't it be hard for faction members to come every time they came?

Well, put that aside for now.

Fortunately, almost everything seemed to have arrived.

You will see two paved walkways drawn on the map.

“You can just go up the road on the left from here!”

“Uh-huh… I have to walk more.”

“Jessica, what if you’re a former Hunter and you’re already tired!”

“There is a difference between being tired of the body and being tired of the mind, Miss Tiana……”

Selena's eyes twinkled at Jessica's words.

“It’s like Tiana’s alchemy shopping. My mind gets tired first.”

“No, my sister?! Are you bringing up such a story here?! Too much?!”

When Selena receives an unexpected attack, Tiana shouts unfairly.

Of course she's that way, and even if she bumps into it, she's on her way without a problem.

She climbs the left uphill path towards her final hurdle towards her faction insolvency.

In Eud's opinion, she's on the map, and she'll probably get there in a minute or two.

And-

The real problem was from when she arrived.

***

“……”

“““……”””

The five who barely arrived in front of the building looked at it blankly.

Holding the map of rough drawings, Eud looked at the map and the building (reality) several times alternately.

“……Ah, no. surely. Ehehe, this is too much of a joke~”

".......after."

Tiana and Selena also stuck to Eud, looking at the map and reality (buildings) alternately.

Of course nothing changes.

On the map, the old-fashioned (presumably that kind of atmosphere) two-story building's 'Poenix faction' is-

“-No, this is just an abandoned building!?”

“Horror spot.......”

Tiana and Selena's faces are flushed with blood.

It was a building full of vines, spider webs, dust, and wild animals.

Fences are full of vines, whether gates or whatever.

The place that would have been a garden is to the point where plants grow indiscriminately and mistake it for a forest.

Even tegur, the biggest enemy of gardening, was growing in abundance.

“Wow…… I’ve also appeared in the Phoenix mansion, Tegur flower……”

“I heard from Peria. I heard that the master had skillfully removed it in the past... But if it's already grown to that level, I don't know where to start..."

"It's the first time I've ever seen him grow up like that... Wow..."

Eud and Suga, knowing the annoyance of Tegur flowers, swallowed their saliva.

If Peria, who is in the mansion, saw this, her eyes would go round and round.

In the case of Joan, he will declare a state of emergency and prepare for an all-out war by summoning the workers.

In addition, in various places of the building, you could see where it came from and even the nests of wild cats and birds.

Shouldn't it be seen as an ecosystem at all?

Maybe because of the atmosphere, it even seemed like the surroundings were dyed black for nothing.

Obviously it's still daytime. It must have been just past 2 o'clock.

“This is the perfect dungeon…!”

As Jessica swallowed her breath, everyone sympathized with what she said.

“Wait, you said this was the poor room used by Gareth-sama’s generation?! So, it's a story that has been neglected for roughly 20 years...!?"

...that's actually an abandoned building.

Yao!!

Nyaaaa!!

shaaaah!!

“Damn!?”

Is it sounding an alarm when people are coming?

Some of the cats in the yard of the building let out a warning cry.

Tiana, who was attached to Wood in shock for a moment, became more and more terrified of her expression belatedly.

“Since yesterday, cats have really annoyed me one after another…!”

It would be the irritation that comes after the so-called surprise.

Perhaps because of the Black Lion faction, he felt more annoyed by the feline family.

“Eud...... Do you always carry a practice stick with you...!? Give it to my sister for a second...! I have work to do!”

“No, don’t just try to use fire magic outside, Tiana noona!”

“I won’t hurt you, I’ll just drive you out……!”

Eventually Selena slapped Tiana on the back of the head to calm her down.

...but the complaints haven't gone away yet.

“Nyaaaaa!” (Cat)

“Kyao!” (Tiana)

He had a snowball fight with one of the cats and had a nervous battle for a while.

As we crossed the yard, we saw a door leading into the building.

After all, there was no way this could be done, and vines were growing all over the door.

Selena took her key from her arms and opened the door.

shudder!

.......Gee!

However, it seems to have been protected by some kind of security magic.

As the lock was released, the mysterious magical power disappeared throughout the building.

“Fortunately, it seems to have been magically blocked from entering without permission!”

Jessica smiled as if she was lucky out of misfortune, and she opened the door of the building wide.

...well, the inside was still full of dust and cobwebs.

"right. Even if you put on security with magic, you can't stop bugs and dust... Hee."

“It was said that security magic only blocks people.”

Reflecting on what they had learned in the past, Jessica and Eud cleared the dust in front of them.

“Ahhh, there’s a lot of dust… hey, bees, bugs!? Eud, protect my sister!?”

“Yeah, hey.”

Tiana didn't know when the bugs would pop out, so she clings to Eud.

Maybe Jessica is also a little weak against bugs, so she sneaks closer to Eud.

“Uh, uh- eh.”

“Miss Selena, it’s a handkerchief.”

“Khhhhhhhhhhh thank you, Suga……Sigh.”

Suga sticks to Selena and takes care of her appearance.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

As we entered the building, everyone's expressions darkened little by little.

The walls and ceiling were stained, and the overall feeling of yellow was due to dust or moisture.

First of all, the cleaning seemed to have to be very tight.

Fortunately, the magic of security magic was applied.

There is no such thing as very serious damage. Surprisingly, it was quite sturdy for a thing that had been left unattended for 20 years.

The power of 'hardening' contained in the magic must have had an effect on the durability of the building to some extent.

...Of course, to the last, it's just "a thing left unattended for 20 years".

In fact, if you look closely, there will be many things to look out for.

But after 5 minutes of walking around....

Now, aside from the state of the interior, we had to face another problem.

“No, let’s say it’s old. But, it was empty……?”

“All I have is some old drawers and chairs.”

As if they had moved, there were hardly any facilities left.

It was said that the furniture will be inherited along with the building.

Whether it was a cushioned chair with tree rings I saw in the Blue Wolf faction, or a table full of the atmosphere of nature—there's nothing like that.

It is invisible except for the smell of dust and insects.

“Ahahaha… Sister, Eud. I have a bad idea right now.”

Tiana spoke, still clinging to Eud.

“Aren’t we supposed to clean everything ourselves, repair it, and even get the furniture…?”

““……””

Selena and Eud both felt bitter when they heard it.

hey, maybe

After another 20 minutes or so, I looked back.

First of all, time was running out, so they all decided to make a strategic retreat.

***

And the rumor was true.

All three siblings who came to return the key to Firti had no choice but to touch their foreheads.

"I'm sorry.......! Each faction's furniture, led by the faction leader, has to be filled with each other..."

“““……”””

All maintenance was the clique's job.

Firti, who came out of the student center and got the key back, explained it with an expression of “Ouch……”.

“To be precise, the furniture is coated with magic so that it does not go bad, and then the next generation inherits it and maintains it……”

“““It’s a meal…?””

“It seems like… Gareth-sama sold it properly before graduating…”

“““……”””

“I never thought it would be like this…”

The three phoenix siblings, the family teacher, and even the maid.

I sighed once again at the moderation attention of the head of Phoenix.

One thing is for sure....

Even if it becomes an official faction, it means that there is no faction asset.
