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 - Chapter 293: Pleasure

Chapter 293: Pleasure

“What do you mean?”

“I mean exactly that. You guys are too honest. You never doubted I was good. Because I’m a teacher, you thought I wouldn’t kill you.”

“That’s obvious, isn’t it?”

“Is it? Then is this obvious?”

The next moment, Milch-sensei pulled a sword from nowhere and slashed at us.

If I didn’t dodge, I’d be cut in half… no, I thought I could dodge… right?

“Why would you do that!”

“Ha, that’s funny. I’m a teacher, and you’re my students. So you think I won’t do anything?”

“That’s right.”

“Then ask that muscle guy and tomboy girl. Do you think someone you trust won’t betray you?”

I turned my gaze to them. They hesitated, and then Shari spoke.

“…I think that’s a different matter.”

“You nobles should understand. Trust and faith, how flimsy they are. But you rely on them too much. Weiss knows me. If he came to this rooftop, he’d be ready for something. Unlike you guys.”

I wanted to raise my voice in response.

But, surprisingly, Duke spoke first.

“What are you saying? He’s different from us. That’s not a bad thing, though.”

“Yes, different. But because of that, Weiss beats you every time, right? From what I see, it’s not about skill. What you lack is mindset.”

“…We always move to win. This time too. So—”

“No. You don’t understand the essence. Fighting isn’t like that.”

“Then what is it?”

“—It’s pleasure.”

“””…What?”””

I felt confused, but Milch-sensei continued.

“It’s the same with hobbies or anything. You’re too serious. You know Weiss is strong. He feels, deep down, that fighting, this world, and magic are fun. That mental ease leads to victory. Eva is like that too.”

As Sensei said, Weiss seemed to enjoy it.

Eva-san was always like that too.

But is that really necessary to win? …I don’t know.

“Questioning yourself won’t give answers. I can’t teach you this. But there’s a way to slightly change you overly serious kids.”

“Tell us!!”

“Quick, huh, Duke… But I want to know too.”

“…Me too.”

Then Milch-sensei grinned.

Before I knew it, she held—water balloons!?

“Your target is your hated Weiss Fancent. It’s simple. Hit him with these balloons.”

“””…What?”””
