Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival-Chapter 209.3

This year, Jesha joined my escort in the school. That was the plan, but as a result of the etiquette that Mira had instilled in her so that she could at least appear in front of the nobles, Elena, who had known her since she was in the desert, got in a bad mood and brought her in as a new student at the academy.

I was glad to see that they seem to be getting along so well. With rank 4 Jesha, I could move without any restrictions to some extent. With Elena, a Rank 3 Magician, and Rockwell, a rank 3 knight, I should be able to hold my own even against a rank 5 opponent.

Jesha was not adopted by the Layton family like me, but was enrolled as an adopted child of Dalton, who was officially made an associate baronet. There had never been a subordinate student before, but her appearance stood out so much that Viro didn’t even feel the need to avoid attention.

“Well, I wonder why you ended up as Dalton’s daughter. Plus, dressed like this…”

“It looks good on you…pfft.”

“Screw you Viro, I’m going to kick your brains out!”

They were arguing about such things because Jesha was wearing the uniform of the magic academy. Jesha, a large mountain dwarf, was the same height as me, but she weighed three times as much, and most of her body was muscle.

But more than that–

“Jesha, your language.”

“Aria…”

When I warned them about their joking around, Jesha looked at me with a pitiful expression.

I was in no position to speak for others either, but from now on, Jesha would be seen as the first princess’s bodyguard as an easy-to-understand deterrent. I doubt Elena would mind if it were among her own people, but the loud and crude language she was using would be a problem.

And I would be moving as the obvious “bait”. I hope Jesha would do well in many ways, as I might have to leave Elena’s side for this purpose.

“–Viro, Jesha.”

“What’s up, Aria?”

“Jesha, focus. You know… right?”

Viro also noticed, or maybe Jesha noticed the sign of Viro’s words of caution.

What was this unpleasant feeling?

The magic academy was surrounded by a deep forest. There was no level ground that a group of people could pass through, and monsters with wisdom would not approach a place with many people.

In the first place, except for low-class monsters with high fertility, they would be defeated around the academy, and since there was Nero somewhere in this forest, any such monsters that may encounter him would have been defeated.

Then, if there were monsters around, it would be ones that appeared unexpectedly. I wondered if Viro shared that opinion, and approached Jesha instead of me.

“Jesha, be vigilant at Her Highness the Princess’ place. Aria and I will take care of this.”

“Why just me?”

“Because Jessa doesn’t have access to her main weapon, right? One of us has to go back with her anyway.”

Our escort was Elena, and she had priority. With that decision, since Jesha’s main weapon, a two-handed axe, was left at Elena’s mansion in the academy, it would be best for Jesha, who had brought only a small hatchet with her, to return with Elena.

Following Viro, I made that decision, and he reasonably agreed with me, even though he wanted to fight.

“All right, I’ll take care of the princess. You two be careful.”

“Got it.”

As soon as Jesha rushed out with Elena, Viro and I rushed into the forest, out of sight and out of mind.
