Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 57.1

The next day.

The new headmaster was introduced in the auditorium after a long time.

How should I put it… The new headmaster doesn’t seem very different from the old elderly headmaster. The content of the speech and the atmosphere are similar, making it feel like the headmaster of the noble academy is just a place for retired positions.

It was time for the afternoon classes.

“Eh? Lady Diana? Today too?”

“Yeah! Is that a problem?”

“Yes, it is.”

“Why!”

“Because the next turn is for Al.”

“I see… Indeed, it wouldn’t be right for me to monopolize everything… Understood. Then, I’ll try inviting Chloe today!”

After finally wrapping up with Diana, I went into a private room with Al.

“Looks like things went well with Lady Diana?”

“Hmm? Well, not exactly. It’s not like anything fundamental has been resolved. But I did get to understand a bit of her worries, so she might work hard in her own way.”

“……Oh, up until yesterday, there wasn’t any sign of that. When did Beryl get to know Lady Diana?”

“Wha!? N-no, you see, I just happened to meet her while walking outside last night. We talked a bit then.”

“Oh… Just by chance at night…”

No, it really was just by chance! I never expected her to be in that dungeon!

Come to think of it, the building covering that dungeon was her home.

Did she build that building there intentionally using knowledge from her previous life?

I’m curious about the reason, so I’ll ask her next time.

“By the way, does Al also want a one-on-one fight with me?”

“Of course. I haven’t neglected my training until today. I’ve raised my level properly. I want to test how effective I am against Beryl.”

“Got it. Just one thing I’ll say.”

“Hmm.”

“I am――――probably extremely strong, so don’t get discouraged.”

“……Ah. I know. The pressure I felt from that magical beast before losing consciousness was considerable. It seemed to be at least a boss-class magical beast, but you managed to defeat it alone. I’ll approach it as if fighting the knight commander.”

The knight commander is that big sword guy. He also seemed incredibly strong. With my current strength… defeating him would be nearly impossible. Besides, the great sword he had looked like a top-tier legendary-grade equipment.

So, Black Days and Durandeis, which are still out of reach, won’t be a match. Moreover, my class is still [Grim Reaper]. I’m still mid-tier among reapers. It’s quite tough unless I advance a level further.

Diana also mentioned her class was [Hero], but since it hasn’t evolved yet, she wouldn’t be able to match me now. But if she had reached the next evolution, she would have defeated that magical beast and I wouldn’t have won. She should know that too.

“Understood. Then, come at me anytime.”

After taking a deep breath, Al’s expression changed from the usual gentle one to that of a warrior.

It seems Al is also carrying a heavy burden.

Then the one-on-one fight with Al began, and like with Diana――――I gave him a thorough beating.

That night.

Among the couples sitting on distant benches, I sat alone with the young lady on a bench.

“After all, Pochi is the best~”
