The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

201. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [52]

Right after Rodis-san said something ridiculous,

「F-Father!? What kind of stupid thing are you saying!?」

The president, whose face was beet red, flusteredly interrupted the conversation.

「What, you don’t like it?」

「I-It’s not that I don’t like, but… T-That’s not it! Think about the place and time!」

She looked at me for a brief moment, and then voiced her protest to Rodis-san.

「You say so, but there aren’t many men as strong as Allen. If you dally too much, he’ll be taken away in no time.」

「I-I know that…」The president whispered something, blushing and looking angry at the same time.

「Hmm, well fine. I’ll just wait for the time when you both make your decision.」

Rodis-san summed up the story, and dropped his gaze to the wristwatch wrapped around his left hand.

「I’ll take my leave around here. I have to get in touch with all the people involved in this matter as soon as possible.」

He said and headed for the exit of the Phantom Spirit Laboratory.

As the Lord of House Arcstria, which is the authority of the government, I’m sure he will be forced into handling all of the aftermath from now on.

However, looking at his back, he seemed like he was jumping with joy.

(I’m sure he’s uncontrollably happy that the president returned safely.)

When I was thinking of that,

「A-Allen-kun…」

The president, whose cheeks are still slightly red and behaving somewhat suspiciously, called out to me.

「Yes, what is it?」

「Please don’t take what my father was talking about seriously. And I don’t want you to misunderstand. It’s not that I don’t want it, but it’s just that…」

「…It’s what?」

I didn’t understand what she’s trying to say, so I encouraged her to continue.

「Well, uh… It’s just that…W-Well, see you tomorrow at the academy!」

The president said quickly, and ran after Rodis-san as though escaping from the spot.

「O-Okay… See you tomorrow.」

I kept waving my right hand towards her who left like a storm.

「She has completely fallen.」

「Yes, no doubt. This is the first time I’ve seen Sie like that though.」

「Fufu, it seems like we’ve discovered something we can have a little『fun』with!」

「Sie is a pure-hearted maiden with zero experience. We, her best friends, should give her some interesting『love advice』, though!」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai exchanged a secret conversation between themselves with an evil smile on their faces.

「Alright, we’ll go home early and start the『strategy meeting』! I’ll see you all at the academy tomorrow!」

「This has become something interesting, though!」

The two quickly left the laboratory, saying something that didn’t make sense.

(The senpais are as cheerful as usual.)

When I thought that with a wry smile,

「Sorry, but Allen and Ria should go home first. I’m going to see my family doctor due to extreme exhaustion of spiritual power.」

Rose said, exhaling loudly.

It seems that she, like me, was exhausted of spiritual power.

「Are you alright going alone? If you’d like, why don’t we go to the hospital together?」

「Thank you. However, you don’t have to worry about that. I’m just going to get a small treatment to not feel tired tomorrow.」

Rose said, smiling a little.

「I’m more worried about Allen, though. You’re probably the most exhausted of us all, and what’s more, you’ve used a substantial amount of spiritual power, right?」

「Hmm. I’ll try testing it.」

I was able to clad myself with the dark robe and formed the pseudo-black sword.

(…It looks better than I thought.)

With just a short rest, my spiritual power seems to have recovered considerably.

(The output is more modest than usual, but…)

If I can produce this much darkness, I can continue fighting to a certain extent.

「To think your spiritual strength has already been restored to that extent. You are truly astonishing.」

With a wry smile, Rose waved us goodbye and headed for the exit.

After that, Ria and I were left alone in the dim laboratory.

「Well then… Shall we go home, too?」

When I proposed as such,

「…」

Ria kept staring hard into my eyes.

「Uh… Is there something on my face?」

「Not really. I’m just jealous.」

She puffed her cheeks a little and turned away in a huff.

For some reason, she seems to be in a bad mood.

「Jealous…?」

「It’s not Allen’s fault, so you don’t have to worry about it.」

And, I went back to the dorm with Ria, who was pouting for some reason.
