The Hero Creation Classroom of a Reincarnated Ordinary Person: After Reaching My Limit As An Adventurer, I Reluctantly Opened A Classroom In The Countryside To Earn Money For The Future, And My Student Became The Strongest - Episode 3

The commotion settled down, and the usual atmosphere returned to the guild.

The other adventurers who had been siding with Taiga are now, as if the storm has passed, starting to talk about requests and monsters.

Amidst all this, Satoria returned to my seat with the woman who had picked up the bag of gold coins that had fallen on the floor.

“Thank you, Endy-san… but couldn’t you have helped me a little earlier?”

“I didn’t help you or anything. I just answered because it looked like you were about to pick a fight. Besides, you should settle things within the guild. Well, if you pay a mediation fee, I might take it on.”

“Money really is everything, isn’t it?”

Ignoring Satoria’s glare, I turn my attention to the woman.

Pure white hair and a well-defined face. On Earth, she would be an astonishing beauty, but in this world where appearances are generally high, she doesn’t stand out as exceptional.

The height is somewhat tall, and the equipment is lightweight armor. There is a high possibility that they are a speed-type swordsman.

After analyzing the woman’s equipment while looking at it, I indicated the front seat with my eyes.

“Well, sit down.”

“Yes”

Responding, the woman sits down while glancing at me from time to time.

Satoria also sat down in the seat she had been in earlier.

“What’s your name?”

“My name is Eve…”

“Eve? What is your family name?”

Since it was just a name in response, I asked, and the answer was given by Satoria.

“Ms. Eve has amnesia and came to this town about a month ago.”

“Amnesia, huh?”

“It’s true, I confirmed it myself. Apparently, six months ago, he was found collapsed in the Cornelia territory, and he seems to have no memories from before that.”

“…so far away.”

The Carnelia territory is one domain away from the city of Ester.

“After that, I took the soldier exam but failed. Then I became an adventurer… and it seems like things haven’t been going well, leading me to this point.”

“Only six months? Just hearing that, it sounds like quite a troublemaker.”

“You’re going too far, Endy-san.”

“No… it’s the truth…”

Satoria warned me, but the woman named Eve seems to accept that evaluation.

Satoria, who had murmured “Such a thing” and looked at Eve with a pained expression, turned her gaze back to me.

“Actually, I was planning to leave it to Endy-san instead of Taiga-san, but it was just around the time I stopped seeing his face.”

“Ah, that’s it. I was deciding on the classroom layout and the furniture for the residence.”

It was around the time when I was talking with Ittetsu about various things and buying what I needed.

“By the way, who is that Taiga?”

“In this guild, they are relatively senior. They are currently a Rank 4 adventurer, but among Rank 4s, they are quite skilled.”

“Wow, you’re quite strong for this town where there are so many newcomers and beginners. So, who are you?”

When I asked Eve, she looked at Satoria first, then looked at me and opened her mouth.

“I just recently advanced to level six.”

“Is it a difference of two ranks? That’s quite a gap.”

“Um… who are you…?”

When asked by Eve, I realized that I hadn’t mentioned my name yet.

“Ah, I’m late. I’m Endy Skyglass. My adventurer rank is level 2. Well, my actual skill level is closer to level 2.5, though.”

“Sky… Glass…”

Maybe because it’s a rare name, Eve repeats the family name I arbitrarily gave.

Next to me, Satoria was making a silly “ahh” sound.

“Mr. Endy’s family name is quite rare, or rather, you hardly ever hear it, right? It doesn’t seem to be a Seiran family name either.”

Well, I just took it from a Japanese surname originally, I think to myself.

My maternal family name was “Amakusa.” That’s why I just made it a simple family name like “Skyglass.”

To put it another way, my last name is “Endo,” so I just slightly altered it to “Endy.”

“Second-class adventurer… you, you were amazing. Um… um… would you be willing to form a party with me?”

As I was thinking that I couldn’t tell anyone the name of the previous world related to my reincarnation, Eve suddenly asked me.

I shake my head.

“No, I’m solo, so I won’t team up with anyone. But… I’m a bit interested in your strength.”

“Huh? Mr. Endy, are you going to take care of Eve?”

“Shut up, Satoria. I just want to see your strength.”

It was when I had to rein in Satoria, who was inexplicably happier than Eve.

“I’m weak, but… please.”

What was offered by Eve was a translucent plate.

It is called a status plate, which contains basic information and skill proficiency that adventurers possess.

“Y-You, Eve-san!? The status plate is supposed to be top secret!?”

“Is that so?”

“No, it’s fine. This is faster.”

While I question the sensibility of handing over the plate, the fact remains that checking is the quickest way.

I snatched the plate from Eve’s hand and scanned it with my eyes.

“Ah! Endy-san, no! What are you doing teaching Eve-san bad things?”

As expected, I’m completely clueless about magic, but I don’t seem to be bad with a sword… and I have a bit of a feeling about this too.

Ignoring Satoria’s words, I ask Eve.

“Your weapon is a sword, right? You prefer to use a sword over magic, is that correct?”

“Y-yes”

“Geez, Endy-san! Please give it back to Eve-san!”

Halfway through my question, Satoria snatched the plate away, and I inwardly complained about what a sneaky person he was.

After returning the plate to Eve, Satoria strongly admonishes me.

“From now on, please ask Eve! Don’t look at the plate!”

“Ah, yes, yes, my apologies.”

“You, as a person…”

Satoria shakes her fist, but a punch from a receptionist is easy to dodge, and even if it hits, it wouldn’t hurt or itch at all.

“Um… did I pass?”

“Huh?”

At the sudden question, I couldn’t help but respond.

I haven’t even explained yet that this is the test to become a student in the classroom.

Did Eve notice the head tilt? She continued speaking.

“No, in the past parties, there were entrance exams to determine pass or fail.”

“E-Eve-san? W-what is that?”

“Huh? …I’ve been told that I passed because of my status, and sometimes my looks.”

At Eve’s answer, Satoria held her head in despair.

“Iv-san, please listen carefully. Forming a party is optional. In the parties of the strong, there might be exams. However, for someone of your rank, an exam… especially one based on looks…”

“Adventurers’ faces don’t matter, right?”

If I said what I was thinking, Eve lowered her gaze.

“Oh… I see. I’m sorry, I didn’t know anything…”

“No, I should be the one apologizing for not noticing. I never expected something like that…”

“Well, it might be more about common sense than guidance.”

When I murmured with distant eyes, Satoria, who had keen ears, looked at me with great intensity.

“Huh? Are you making Eve-san a student?!”

“Well, yeah.”

I look around the guild while speaking vaguely.

Most adventurers are already often in parties.

If you mentor one person, you will also be able to interact with the other party members.

If we’re not careful, we might end up with unnecessary interruptions.

On the other hand, Eve was just exiled and isn’t in a party with anyone.

Also, it seems that she came all the way here alone from a distant place called Carnelia, and she doesn’t appear to have sustained any major injuries during the journey.

Above all, the way Taiga just shoved a bag of gold coins at me.

(For now, this guy is the most convenient for me…)

Although there are some concerns, the fact remains that there is currently no one more suitable than her.

After thinking about it a lot, I made up my mind.

“Alright… Eve, you passed. Attend classes in my classroom.”

“Cl…class? Is it?”

“Ah, I’ll teach you various things. How to become stronger, and how to live as an adventurer.”

Eve’s eyes widened slightly, as if she still couldn’t fully accept the words.

“Hmm, Eve-san is in Endy’s suspicious classroom… really? But if we’re leaving it to Endy-san, their skills aren’t that bad…”

“You were just asking me to take care of you a moment ago, weren’t you?”

“Well, when I think about it carefully, is it really okay to leave the pure and innocent Eve-san with such a money-grubber…?”

“I told you to choose your words carefully, didn’t I?”

I clenched my fist, thinking it’s about time I give this guy a good punch to the head.

“Um, excuse me… if I receive your guidance… will I be able to help others?”

“Huh? What’s that supposed to mean? Can you protect someone? Well, if you get stronger, you can do it.”

I didn’t quite understand, but when I voiced my thoughts, Eve brought her hand to her chest and clenched it tightly.

“I will… please let me take it.”

“Alright, from now on, call me ‘Sensei.’ Got it?”

“Yes, understood, Sensei. Thank you in advance.”

Feeling a slight sense of nostalgia, I smirked and nodded at Eve.
