The Academy’s Genius Magic Swordsman

St. Claire called me with an abrupt remark and immediately guided me to her dorm room, the Theology Department, right there.

It was not in the morning when people’s eyes were drawn once as usual, but in the afternoon when there were quite a lot of eyes, but she seemed to ignore the gaze sent to me and to her and lead her into her room.

It’s probably because you’re in such a hurry that you don’t care about other people’s eyes, or you’re acting this way because it doesn’t really matter anymore.

For some reason, I also seemed to know what she was trying to say, so I didn’t find it particularly strange and just followed her into the dorm.

After all, the time has come.

The time when the revelation of Stella’s appointment as a hero came down.

There is still a year left until the appointment ceremony, so it will be quite a long story, but if you say that you are preparing from before then, honestly, a year was tight.

Because, from now on, various qualification tests will follow whether or not Stella has the qualifications to become a hero.

Specifically, the imperial family and the Mage Tower, who did not want the support of the Orthodox Church to grow stronger, would become particularly fierce.

Since the demon god had already been defeated once hundreds of years ago, the tension would have been lowered a notch, so there must have been some people who thought that the revelation of the sun god was no big deal.

The imperial family would probably put a swordsman that was as good as Stella (although only they thought so) and ask them to compare with Stella to verify their abilities as a warrior.

In the Mage Tower, they will try to somehow put a person from the Jingol Mage Tower who is loyal to the Mage Tower to the bone as a member of the demon subjugation team.

In order to knock out all those forces, I never overflowed that I was preparing from now on.

In particular, Saint Claire in her previous life had no ties to me or Stella, so she only announced the revelation that Stella had been appointed as a hero at the right time.

Compared to her previous life, the current Saint Clare was definitely in a state of deepening ties with both me and Stella.

If possible, it would be my interest to want her to take office as a hero without being checked by other forces.

Even for Saint Claire herself, it would be much easier for her to be acquainted with the hero of the demon subjugation party.

For that process, he must have come to ask for help from me, the leader of the party including himself and Stella.

And even though it had already been about two years, he had the experience of winning the competition for the position of student council president against the daughter of a Viscount, Delfina, against Prince Antonio, a member of the royal family.

As for the credential, though Stella had to overcome, the public opinion itself was somehow able to be swayed in our favor.

I sorted out my thoughts and judgments to some extent until Saint Claire took me to the dormitory, and waited in silence for the first words to come out of her mouth.

Not long after, Saint Clare cautiously brought up a story with unexpected luck.

“… A revelation has come down.”

Also.

As expected, I nodded my head pretending not to know and fixed my gaze at her who rhymed with her first words.

“I see.”

“Aren’t you going to ask what the revelation is?”

“It’s because I’m guessing something about that.”

Seeing my reaction, Saint Claire looked at me with her eyes wide open in surprise.

“Do you know what I am going to say?”

“I do not know. The fact that a saintess was born after 300 years, in other words, is also the story of the birth of someone who needs her help.”

“… … .”

“And haven’t you witnessed that the forces of the Dark Church have been moving noticeably a lot lately? I had been thinking for quite some time that the time had come.”

“… Mr. Conrad always sees far more possibilities than I do.”

I’ve already seen the future once, so I have no choice but to do it.

Of course, there were many futures that were changed by me returning to the past and doing this or that.

On the contrary, there was also a future that would not change no matter what I did.

One of them was that Stella was appointed as a warrior by receiving a revelation from the sun god.

Of course, the process won’t be that smooth, but at least it will be much easier than in the previous life.

Unlike the last time, this time, Stella has a strong support group in her own way, she is growing much faster, and I will constantly help her to make sure that something doesn’t go wrong.

There was nothing to go wrong. really.

“In other words, that means Mr. Conrad has already completed his mental preparation.”

“Yeah. I expected it to happen someday.”

“When Mr. Conrad said that he had already prepared his mind, I was relieved. I was nervous about how to tell it because it was going to be a rather heavy story.”

Since it is related to a hero who subdues the demons of an era, it is inevitable that it will become heavy.

Still, compared to Stella’s duties, the burden of my work would have been much less, and I should have taken comfort in it.

Until now, in order to move unnoticed, each and every little thing required a fairly prestigious reputation, but after Stella becomes a hero, that will probably disappear.

Seeing as I seemed to be making a determined expression, Saint Clare also spat out the following words to me.

“Ayla, the sun god, has come down with a revelation to appoint the hero of this generation.”

“As expected.”

“It will probably be a long journey until we subdue the Demon God. As a saint, I will gladly participate in the journey I vomited.”

“I feel relieved already. With Saint Claire, there would be no need for another priest.”

“I thought that Mr. Conrad would be gone forever after graduating from the academy, but somehow, fate is bound to continue.”

Did she already unappointed me as the wizard of the Demon Subjugation Corps?

I was a bit puzzled that he brought up such a story already without asking me or Stella’s opinion, but it didn’t matter, since it was something I wanted to do anyway.

Stella probably won’t object to me becoming a wizard of the subjugation party I drank. Of course, since she was the one who had the right to appoint the personnel of the subjugation party, I couldn’t be 100% sure.

It was strange to proceed with the content as if we had already been nominated as a hero, excluding Stella, the party involved, but this was also a story that we could say because we knew that Stella would not refuse the duty given to her.

Stella does not run away from her duties and responsibilities. Rather, because of his foolish personality, he would not know if he had even taken on a burden that he did not have to bear.

I feel sorry for Stella, but I have no choice but to ask her to subdue the drink one more time.

But this time, I’ll pay attention in many ways so that I can focus only on swinging the sword.

“I have no choice but to prepare from now on so that I don’t get caught up in unnecessary faults later. Because there will probably be many people who doubt the sincerity of this hero.”

“… Probably so. It’s not a bad meaning, but the warriors appointed this time are exceptional in many ways.”

“Perhaps Delfina can help steer public opinion. On top of that, my sister is quite close with Prince Antonio.”

“Does it need to go that far? No matter how much it is, I don’t think there is anyone who opposes the hero whom Ayla, the sun god, personally assigned fortunes to.”

“There are surprisingly many people in the world who act outside of common sense, saintess.”

Unlike the saintess who speaks comfortably, I remembered the tricks of the imperial family and the Mage Tower in my previous life that somehow tried to raise their voice.

In order to form the members of the planned Demon God Subjugation Corps, it was most important to somehow adjust public opinion.

Champion, Stella Arwen.

Explorer, Lulu Laila.

Archer, Sian Rudflicka.

Priestess, Claire Larapria‧Maidel.

And even me, the wizard, Konrad Perdalos.

Even apart from the elf, Cian, and the saint, Claire, it would be difficult for the other members of the demon subjugation party to be recognized unless they were verified once, whether they like it or not.

Among them, it was Stella’s role to keep the perseverance and call the party.

This year will be the last time I will remain as the party leader.

With that thought in mind, I gradually explained my future plans with Saint Clare.

“First of all, there is still about a year until the appointment ceremony to appoint you as a formal warrior, so let’s create the situation as much as possible so that no gossip comes out in the meantime.”

“Maybe so… Yes, one year?”

“The imperial family will probably dispatch a sword master level swordsman. Then, he will try to verify the qualifications of the hero by creating a situation where he can compete with Stella. Of course, it’s a fight you can’t lose, so it’s better to warn Stella in advance.”

“Wait a minute, Stella? Are you saying that Stella suddenly has to fight against the sword master dispatched by the imperial family?”

“Of course Stella was appointed as the hero of this generation… .”

Of course, my words, which I had brought out on the premise that information was being shared, were stopped by Saint Clare’s continued reply.

“What are you talking about, Mr. Conrad? Stella is not a hero of this generation.”

“… … Yeah?”

A stupid voice came out of my mouth at the completely unexpected answer that came out of her mouth.

“But, apparently, a revelation came down from the sun god to appoint a hero… .”

“Rather, I would like to ask. Where in the world did you think Stella would be appointed as a hero?”

“Of course, I thought so from the time you told me this story.”

“… … Yeah?”

“Since Stella will become a hero and Lady Claire will also become a member of the Demon Demon Subjugation Corps, I thought it was to ask for opinions from me, who leads the party they both belong to… Is it different?”

“… I’m sorry, Mr. Conradon, you have a completely different illusion.”

… no way?

The hero of this generation… Could it be that it’s not Stella?

I felt like I was going crazy at the moment when something was going on strangely.

If the hero of this generation is not Stella, then who on earth was appointed as the hero?

Obviously, I think Stella’s growth has been encouraging to anyone. Even to the point where she grew up much faster than Stella in her previous life.

Although it is a vanished future, it means that he is a talented person who has the experience of defeating a demon once and is like a guaranteed check that will never go bankrupt.

But who the hell is a person who can beat Stella and become a hero?

Hilla Warburg? As strong as she was, compared to Stella, it would have been just a budding talent.

Willia? It’s been a long time since I left it in the north, so I can’t guess how much it is now, but there was little chance that it followed Stella’s growth rate.

Maybe it’s not Delphina. It’s not that there weren’t any warriors who used spears historically, but there hasn’t been a single one who’s ever used spears.

While I was thinking about the suitability of various candidates in my head, Saint Clare told me the identity of the new hero I was so curious about.

Someone completely unexpected, someone I can be sure I know better than anyone.

“It’s you, Mr. Conrad.”

“… … Yeah?”

“Conrad Perdalos, you are the champion of this generation.”
