227. Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [24]

After receiving Valentine’s chocolate from the president, I went to the schoolyard where Ria and Rose were waiting.

「Sorry, I’m a little late.」

When I raised one hand and said so,

「A-Allen! How did it go!?」

「I-If you don’t mind… Could you tell me what happened?」

The two asked for a detailed explanation with a serious expression.

(This big reaction…. I see, that’s what it is.)

Apparently, Ria and Rose have been worrying about whether the president confided in me about her “Political Marriage” class problem.

For the past month or so, the president has been acting strange.

Before I knew it, she had left a letter on my bag.

And the contents read「I want you to come to the roof alone」.

There were so many “elements”.

So it is only natural that they would be feeling uneasy.

「It’s okay, it wasn’t anything serious. I just got a chocolate cake from her.」

And when I showed the the white box in my hand,

「I-I see… That’s good.」

「Well, the “match settle” has been postponed huh…」

Ria and Rose breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and whispered something that didn’t make sense to me.

「Well… It’s already quite late, shall we go home?」

「Yes, let’s go.」

「Aa, I agree.」

Then we parted ways and returned to our respective dormitories.

「「Thank you for the food.」」

After we finished dinner, Ria and I put our hands together and gave thanks for the food.

「Then, let me take care of the cleanup.」

「Yes, thank you.」

She cooked for me today, so cleaning up is my job.

Wash the dishes and leave them on the draining board. Finally, wipe off the water around the sink, and I’m all done.

(Oh, it’s already this time…)

Looking at the clock, the time is seven o’clock at night.

It’s about time to go to my daily routine.

「Ria. Then I’ll go do the “usual”.」

「Ah, yes… Take care.」

「Aa, thank you.」

Then I headed to the woods behind the dorm.

「Fuu, it’s still getting colder.」

I rubbed my hands together and quickly came out to an open space.

Surrounded by lush trees and moonlight showering from above. This is a “secret training ground” that only I and Ria know of.

「Well, let’s begin.」

And I started swinging my sword as usual.

「………Haa.」

After about thirty minutes had passed since I started , a small sigh escaped my mouth.

(I am very happy to receive “Friend chocolates” from a lot of friends, but…)

Ria’s chocolate is what always crosses my mind.

(But as far as I’ve seen from her reaction… Vesteria Kingdom doesn’t seem to have the custom of “Valentine” in the first place.)

Every time I got a chocolate from someone, Ria had a very puzzled look on her face.

I’m sure she wasn’t able to understand what was going on, as she was just standing stunned everytime.

(Next year. Yes, surely next year.)

We’re talking about the curious Ria after all.

I’m sure she’ll be wondering about today’s incidents and find out about Valentine’s Day in the near future.

(For that to happen, I have to train more!)

On this day next year, I’ll be an even stronger and finer swordsman to get a chocolate from her.

With such ambition in my heart,

「Fuh! Ha! Sei!」

Faster than usual.

Stronger than usual.

Sharper than usual.

I put all my heart into it and swung my sword over and over again.

About an hour later, all of a sudden, scorching black flames came at me from the front.

「Wha!?」

It was neither fast nor slow. There was no hostility, nor the intent to kill.

It was a strange attack as though it was asking me to defend it.

「HA!」

I cut off the approaching black flames with a side sweep.

(This is, no way?)

I was all too familiar with the attack just now.

And as I fearfully looked in the direction of the attack,

「Ri, Ria!?」

She, who had developed〈Fafnir〉, walked up to me slowly.

「Allen, let’s have a match.」

「A match?」

「Yes, that’s right. If you could beat me this, I will give you this!」

She said so and took out an unbelievable thing out of her pocket.

「T-That is!?」

「Yes. Valentine’s Chocolate! O-Of course, I handmade it too. And… I also perhaps put in… L-L-Love and stuff…!」

With her face flushed, Ria shouted with her voice trembling.

「Fuu…」

An incredible big event occurred suddenly. In front of it, I clenched my fist tightly and exhaled loudly.

「O-Oh? …Y-You don’t want it?」

On the other hand, Ria spoke with a voice that seemed like she would start crying at any moment.

And I,

「Destroy -〈Zeon〉!」

Replied an answer with all my might.

The entire Thousand Blade Academy was covered in abyss-like darkness, and the world was dyed “black”.

The darkness raged as though my desire materialized, and it kept surging out non-stop.

「O-Oi-Oi what!? This ridiculous output?」

「This evil spiritual power unmistakably belongs to Allen Rodore! And the other party is… Ria Vesteria!?」

「Are those two fighting!? What’s the matter with you two? A lover’s quarrel!?」

Noises broke out from various places in Thousand Blade Academy.

I am very sorry to cause a problem, but I wish they would overlook it this time.

After all, Ria’s handmade chocolate is at stake in this match.

I gripped the True Black Sword which I am materialising after a long time, and assumed Seigan no Kamae.

「This time, I’m going to win no matter what! I’m going to give it my all, Ria!」

「Yes! Come, Allen!」

She gripped her sword with a very happy expression for some reason.

This is how the fierce battle between me and Ria began.
