I Have been Reincarnated As a Lazy, Arrogant Noble, but When I Destroyed The Scenario Through Effort, I Became The Most Powerful With Extraordinary Magical Power - 85

Chapter 85.5 – Peaceful Days of Noblesse

This is like an unrelated “what if” story from the main plot, so please enjoy (^^)/

───────────────────

“I wonder if everyone got it?”

Noblesse Magic Academy, Girls’ Dormitory.

There’s a building there that male students have no knowledge of, a secret garden.

For example, in the spacious dressing room that you wouldn’t find in the boys’ dormitory, there are various perfumes and grooming supplies neatly arranged. There are full-length mirrors and even papers with magical knowledge to make your skin look beautiful on days when it’s rough.

Yes, this is the girls’ gathering place in the Noblesse girls’ dormitory, which Weiss doesn’t know about, Alan certainly doesn’t know about, and Duke of Muscles, of course, absolutely doesn’t know about—a girls’ gathering place.

This room is the most pink-themed in all of Noblesse. It’s filled with fluffy stuffed animals, fluffy cushions, and decorations that would be unheard of in this era, creating a room that’s not only beautiful but also smells wonderful.

By applying for it jointly with all three grades, anyone can reserve it, and today the girls’ gathering of Noblesse underclassmen was taking place at the spacious table.

Standing up is Shari, who is naturally cheerful, holding up a glass of orange juice in her right hand.

“Well then, to Noblesse!”

This is a toast at Noblesse Academy.

On the table, there were sweet snacks, sweet cakes, fruits, and fruit juices specially prepared from the Noblesse cafeteria.

Gathered here were Cynthia, Lillith, Cecil, Karta, and Shari.

Of course, Olin is—naturally not here.

“It’s been a while since we gathered like this.”

Cynthia said while recalling the tea parties. Although she rarely got the chance to do so since enrolling at Noblesse Academy, she liked being with people.

“Mmm, Cynthia-sama, this snack is delicious!”

“Oh, thank you, Lillith.”

Here, there are no husky voices or sweat that is always present. What can be heard is only sweet voices.

“Mmm, gulp gulp, puff…”

Karta, holding a glass with both hands, was a little nervous as she sipped the sweet juice. She wasn’t used to being in a large group.

But Shari, who noticed, cheered her up cheerfully.

“Karta-san, this cake is delicious! I had it brought from my favorite shop!”

“Oh, thank you!”

“Why are you using honorifics?”

“Just, somehow…”

“You’re in the same grade, isn’t it okay to be more casual?”

Kindly speaking was Cecil. She had the usual atmosphere but wore flower-patterned earrings that she didn’t usually wear.

For Cecil, the girls’ gathering was also something to look forward to.

Then the conversation naturally turned to daily life at Noblesse.

Things like wanting the teachers to be a bit kinder or wanting a break in the middle of bath time.

When the excitement reached its peak, Lillith raised her hand.

“By the way, do you all have someone you like?”

However, the atmosphere froze at those words. Most of the people in the room looked at each other, blushing.

Cynthia was the first to break the silence.

“Of course, it’s Weiss. He’s handsome and the strongest man, isn’t he?”

“Well, if you’re going to say that, Alan is also cool! He always works hard and watches over us from the front, not losing to Weiss!”

“Oh, so does that mean Shari-san likes Alan-san?”

Cynthia’s quiet question made Shari mumble and instantly blush.

“What about you, Karta-san?”

“M-me? Um…?”

Karta glanced at Cynthia.

It was a somewhat difficult expression.

“Karta-san, if you like Weiss, you can say it clearly. I think it’s a good thing that Weiss is liked by many women,” Shari encouraged.

“Eh, um! Well, well! Uh, certainly, Weiss-kun is cool, right!? What am I saying!? And Cecil-san!?”

Karta, who had offered a lifeline, thought that Cecil, who is usually calm, would calmly defuse the situation. However, Cecil blushed and said hesitantly.

“W-What are you talking about? I-I, I, just, I played Battle Universe with him, and I-I don’t have any impure feelings or anything!?”

Everyone exchanged glances at each other.

Karta had only asked if Cecil liked Weiss, not mentioned anything about Weiss.

“Ah…”

Cecil, realizing it later, blushed and looked down.

Her hurried manner and choice of words different from her usual self made everyone laugh.

And then…

“Yes, yes, yes! I also think Weiss-sama is handsome! I like him!”

Lillith shouted cheerfully. Karta, Cecil, and even Cynthia nodded quietly.

“But I also think Alan-san is amazing. Even though he hasn’t undergone special training, he entered Noblesse and excels academically.”

“That’s right! Alan always works hard, and he’s amazing!”

Noticing Shari’s sincere admiration, Cynthia and the others laughed softly.

Everyone wore happy expressions.

“But Duke-san is also handsome, isn’t he? Always so manly. And Olin-san’s summoning skills are incredible!”

“That’s right, Lillith. I think Duke is great too.”

“Hehe, if we were to tell them, they’d be delighted. Of course, I think Olin is wonderful too.”

“Everyone… is cool, right?”

With Karta’s quiet mutter at the end, everyone smiled.

And so, the girls’ gathering continued…

Meanwhile, in the boys’ dormitory, an unusual quartet was gathered around a table in the cafeteria.

Their expressions were far from the lively atmosphere of the girls’ gathering…

“What’s wrong? What are you afraid of?”

Weiss taunted Duke while giving him a sharp look.

Duke, in response, picked up a single card that had stuck out.

But at that moment, Weiss smiled.

“Hah, you simpleton. It’s a winning hand.”

“Ughhh, again?!”

In Noblesse, where entertainment was scarce, games typically involved Battle Universe or card games when there were more than two players.

Next to them were Alan and Olin.

“Duke, you’re showing your emotions too much. You’re always shouting.”

“Maybe Alan-kun is right. But Weiss-kun is also… pretty obvious.”

“Hah, don’t lie, Olin. I’m good at hiding my emotions.”

“Is that so? Then, want to have a match?”

Several tens of minutes later…

“I did it!”

“Why can’t I win against Olin again…”

Weiss was completely defeated by Olin.

Duke had also lost to Alan in the process.

“Darn it! Alright, let’s finish this after we have the daily Special A lunch!”

“We’re eating again!? We just ate earlier, right!?”

“The earlier one was a snack. This is the main meal now.”

“Well, considering the muscles, it makes sense. Let’s replenish with some nutritious fruits and then have a rematch.”

“You two eat a lot… Well, maybe I should eat too.”

“In that case, I’ll have ice cream!”

Noblesse Oblige is a world of swords and magic.

A world of challenging games, both tough and tearful, and ultimately, the best.

But naturally, there are also peaceful days without conflicts.

That day was said to be lively until late into the night.
