Flash!
The warp gate glowed.
“It’s hot.”
Leo who came out of the warp gate muttered as he felt the heat of the desert.
Leo arrived in the oasis city of Huarguela.
It was one of the largest cities in Elehem.
Leo walked inside the warp gate.
Luke said as he followed Leo.
“Oh it’s really hot?”
It was already so hot that Luke was sweating profusely.
Since it was also a hot summer in the center of the continent I had already changed into summer clothes a long time ago.
However the weather in the desert was so hot that such summer clothes were useless.
Luke stuck out his tongue as he looked at Leo who wasn’t even breaking a sweat.
Meanwhile other students began to appear through the warp gate.
Since Huarguela itself is a huge metropolis many teams came to investigate here.
People passing by the warp gate began to murmur as they saw the Lumern students appearing through the warp gate.
“Lumern?”
“Why are they here…?”
The first graders reacted in various ways to the surprised expressions of people.
Some students felt proud while others felt ashamed.
In the case of second graders they were generally annoyed as they had already become accustomed to people’s attention.
Just like that Leo walked outside.
And then I narrowed my eyes at the unfolding scene.
Luke’s eyes widened when he saw the scenery outside the warp gate.
The city streets were dazzling.

The entire city sparkled under the light of the magic stone lanterns that were lit throughout the streets.
The faces of the people walking down the street were all bright.
Have fun talking.
Merchants on the street were selling all kinds of things.
All kinds of fresh fruits and food bouquets.
It was a scenery reminiscent of a festival.
“It’s a little different from what I imagined.”
“Sure.”
Luke also nodded at Leo’s muttering.
‘It’s almost as splendid as Rodren’s capital.’
Leo recalled the capital city of Rodraine which he had visited with his cousin Celia.
Rodraine is one of the richest countries in the world.
There isn’t much difference in the distance between big cities in those two countries.
Since it was a place where a mission had to be carried out the preliminary investigation into Elehem had already been completed.
Therefore the situation of Elehem which is one of the poorest countries in the world was also recognized.
But now this street was far from being a poor country at all.
While Leo was lost in thought.
Other students also came out of the warp gate and their eyes widened when they saw the streets of Huarguela.
“and! oh my god!”
“It’s almost like Lumeria City right?”
Other students were also very excited about the street scene which was different from what they imagined.
The female students were especially happy humming songs.
I was worried that I might have to stay in poor quality accommodation but when I saw the street scene those worries disappeared.
“I was worried about a lot of things about accommodations but I ended up worrying about it for no reason.”
“Let’s get accommodation first!”
“okay! “The school has given us a lot of support but now that things have turned out this way we should sleep in a good place!”
Students rushed out of the warp gate.
“Shall we find a place to stay first?”
“So will you hold it?”
“Me?”
“okay.”
Leo opened his palms.
Grumble-!
A small red chick appeared with a small flame.
Beep-
It was none other than Fiora.
Leo said as he handed Fiora over to Luke.
Join our discord and ping me to update more chapters. Discord: https://discord.gg/93rmBjgP6B
“Once you find a place to stay you can let me know the location through this guy.”
“yes.”
“After you find a place to stay please investigate the strange situation in this city on your own.”
“Am I alone?”
“You can do it right?”
“yes!”
Luke answered enthusiastically.
Beep-beep-
Fiora climbed onto the top of Luke’s head.
Then he tilted his head and pecked a few times and then as if he liked Luke’s pretty silver hair he flapped his wings gracefully and sat down.
It looked like a bird sitting in a nest.
“Please take care of me.”
Beep-
Fiora nodded and answered Luke’s words.
Leo said while looking at that.
“Don’t just buy something you ask for.”
“yes.”
Luke answered and ran out to find a place to stay.
Elsie who was sitting on Leo’s shoulder said while looking at the back.
-Why did you have to send it alone?
“He’s from the countryside so he lacks experience.”
Leo turned around.
“I want to give them as many different experiences as possible. And I also want to let people know that I am a great guy.”
-What do you mean by wanting to let you know that you are great enough?
When Elsie tilted her head Leo answered calmly.
“Luke has lost a lot of confidence recently.”
It was just as Leo said.
Other students are rapidly improving their skills.
However Luke continued to stand still thanks to the restrictions imposed by Leo.
First graders who didn’t know that fact would mock and laugh at Luke.
He was lucky enough to get into school and became the student council president’s mentee but in the end he was ridiculed as being untalented.
Most first-year students treated Luke as simply a lucky guy.
Leo knows that too.
Elsie muttered after hearing Leo’s story.
-It must be very difficult.
“It’s hard.”
There is nothing more painful than not being rewarded for your efforts.
Especially in school where I had to compete with others the thought of being left behind alone was enough to cause tremendous stress.
“You probably don’t have confidence in yourself and feel like you’re walking an invisible path.”
-Despite this Luke doesn’t stop trying.
Luke believes Leo’s words and runs as hard as he can.
Even though the restrictions could be lifted right away and most students could show skills that could overwhelm them they persevered.
‘Senior can I really beat Aina?’
‘What do you think?’
‘How can I defeat Aina?’
Luke denied his own possibilities.
but….
‘But since Leo said it was possible I’ll give it a try.’
I didn’t believe in my own possibilities but I believed in Leo’s words.
“In that respect it resembles Berkia and Bihar.”
Leo thought of his students in his past life.
Disciples who never stopped trying even though they constantly thought they were lacking.
Therefore they would have been able to accomplish great things in rebuilding the world after the era of disaster ended.
“If you are treated as a student of Rumern during the investigation process you will regain some of your confidence.”
Whatever it is entering Lumern is Luke’s achievement.
I don’t know if it’s great if it’s just the Lumerun students but if you look at it from the outside it’s quite an impressive feat.
“Besides… the place we are going now may be a bit stimulating for a child.”
Elsie tilted her head at those words.
Just like that Leo disappeared into the alley.
Sigh-
“You went right?”
At that time a girl sitting not far away put down the newspaper she was reading and glanced at the alley where Leo had disappeared.
“Senior.”
“Why are you doing this junior?”
Austin cautiously called his mentor.
“What is the reason for secretly watching you Master?”
Illyana smiled meaningfully in response to Austin’s question.
“I don’t know what. The class president is. Are you really good at tasks like this?”
Illyana said folding the newspaper gracefully.
“So as long as you follow the class leader well during the mission training you can eat it raw.”
Austin looked at Illyana in bewilderment.
“Was it so that you could follow the master when you asked me to ask Luke for his destination?”
“of course!”
Illyana’s eyes sparkled.
Looking at Illyana like that Austin sighed deeply.
“Can’t we just investigate on our own?”
“It’s not like it can’t be done.”
Illyana waved the wallet containing the application fee.
“I must have already received a lot of money. Would you like to practice missions comfortably?”
“As a knight of Gerdinger this is unacceptable. Gerdinger’s knightly virtue is first sincerity. Second is morality. Third…”
“ah! It’s loud! The virtue of the Raden family is that good is good!”
“No matter what it’s mission training and I’m thinking about having fun…”
Austin tried to persuade Illyana somehow.
Seeing Austin like that Illyana smiled brightly.
“Austin. “Do you know what your master said to senior Hark who is now the vice-president of the student council when he became the student council president last year?”
“What did you say?”
“If it’s okay then it’s okay.”
“….”
Austin bowed his head.
Illyana is not lacking as a mentor.
No it’s actually great.
He teaches well and guides well.
But when things get crazy like this conversation doesn’t work.
“Now let’s follow!”
Illyana stood up and followed after Leo with Austin.
“Anyway why is he making such an old man-like expression?”
Illyana tilted her head remembering Leo’s expression.
Illyana and Austin entered the alley and chased after Leo.
When we came to a fork in the alley we moved smoothly by asking people passing by in the back alley the direction Leo had gone.
And after a while.
“entrance?”
Something that looked like an entrance appeared in a back alley.
Illyana tilted her head as she looked at the entrance with a curtain hanging down as if to divide the area.
Just as I was about to enter.
“Giggles. “This is not a place for little guys like you who don’t even have dry hair.”
The old woman standing at the entrance smiled eccentrically and said.
At those words Illyana crossed her arms.
“A boy dressed similar to us passed by here just now right?”
“If it was that young master it would have passed.”
“We’re after him.”
Illyana lifted her chin.
“If he went does that mean we can go in too?”
“Not really. Because this is not a place that accepts people. but….”
The old woman looked at Illyana and Austin.
“It must be too irritating for little kids to come.”
Illyana huffed looking at the smiling old woman.
“grandma. Even though I look like this I am a grown up girl. It’s far from naive. joy! “No matter how severe the stimulation is you can’t tell how severe it is.”
Illyana confidently opened the entrance curtain and entered.
Austin was about to chase after Illyana.
“Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!”
Illyana’s scream rang out.
“Senior!”
Austin who was startled quickly drew his sword and was about to enter the entrance.
Woe!
Illyana ran out of the curtain at full speed.
Illyana whose neck was red collapsed in her seat and sighed.
“Senior! “What’s going on!”
“I’m with a man! Woman woman woman! “In the middle of the street!”
The old woman clicked her tongue as she looked at Illyana who was talking gibberish probably from culture shock.
“It looks like the drugged ones happened to be at the entrance.”
“What on earth is this place?”
When Illyana asked with a red face the old woman answered.
“It is a street of pleasure where the castle of pleasure is located.”
The old woman laughed.
“The dirtiest paradise in the world. It’s not a place for young ladies or cadets like you. Well the master walked calmly.”
Austin looked nervous.
Illyana muttered.
“I wonder why the class president had an old man-like expression…!”
“Senior. “You probably just came here to investigate.”
Austin defended Leo but Illyana didn’t listen.
