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 55
“I think Yuurii will be able to rank up to level 5 as soon as she takes the adventurer promotion exam. Also, if Anna trains a bit more, her sword proficiency will likely reach C.”
“You’re definitely doing well. No particular issues… Well, Milky has a bit of a difficult personality, but she has a good impression of you and will listen to what you say. I told you to be careful not to cause unnecessary disputes among adventurers, right?”
“Yes, I’ve strongly advised Milky. I think Anna and Yuuri are fine, but just in case.”
After dinner, in my private room, I was receiving the daily report from Eve.
I have a paper summarizing the guidance content for Anna, Milky, and Yuuri, and it shows that everything is going smoothly.
Sometimes I would observe from a distance, and even then, it felt like things were going well.
“Isn’t Yuuri going to be okay? She’s the most well-behaved one in there, right?”
“No, actually, they are surprisingly the type to hold grudges and tend to think quite extreme things in their mind.”
“……People are not what they seem.”
Thinking that, I noticed that Eve’s expression was slightly clouded.
“What’s wrong? Are you struggling with teaching again?”
“No, it’s not like that. The teaching methods you taught me have improved things quite a bit, and I’ve gradually gotten used to it as well. …But, well, it’s just that it doesn’t seem to be going the same way it did when I was in your class.”
“Of course it is.”
With a small smile, I admonish Eve.
“I’ve said it before, but you’re a genius. No doubt about it. Ordinary people don’t grow as fast as you do, and even Anna and the others grow faster than the average person, you know? And don’t ever tell the students about this. Some of them would be shocked.”
“Yes… I understand. Thank you very much.”
Geniuses cannot fully understand the feelings of ordinary people.
But you can learn to understand those feelings.
It’s not like I have a reason like I do, but Eve should be fine.
“By the way, Sensei, how is Louis doing?”
This time it was Eve’s turn, as if to say, and she asked about Louis.
“Honestly, it’s not good… I’ve been watching it for the past few months, and I can say it’s pretty much confirmed.”
Until now, I wished that I was different, that things were not as they are.
That is the reality, and it is being thrust upon me.
Continuing to turn a blind eye had reached its limit.
“Louis’s swordsmanship skills… have already reached their growth limit.”
The voice that came out was quite low, without me even realizing it.
“Growth… limits…”
“It might be a story unrelated to Eve, but each skill level has a limit to how much it can grow depending on the person. In Louis’s case, the sword skill has reached its growth limit at the current E rank. Even if he trains more, the sword proficiency won’t increase. Of course, skills cultivated through combat, such as movement, tactics, and situational awareness, can still improve.”
“Something like that… exists, huh…”
“Well, most adventurers will either die or end their adventurer life before they even encounter it. It’s actually more unusual to stop at E-rank.”
As if sensing the tone that seemed to say “annoying,” Eve tried to say something.
He controlled it with his eyes and continued speaking.
“I’ve always thought it would be fine if it weren’t like that, but we’ve reached a point where I have no choice but to admit it. I have to tell Louis directly… and there’s something else that’s been bothering me too.”
“You’re practicing on your own at the inn, right?”
“Did you notice?”
Eve nodded clearly at my words.
“Today, I observed the lesson with the teacher and Louis from a distance, and there was something off about their movements. It’s not just because they haven’t slept, but definitely due to fatigue from overexerting their muscles. And that ‘Strong Slash’…”
“Ah… those guys, they conspired and deceived me and Eve.”
“……I don’t care about myself, but to deceive the teacher…… should I make you suffer a bit?”
“Stop it.”
Suddenly, I sharply stop Eve from making extreme remarks.
“I understand how Anna and the others feel. They probably took Louis’s feelings into account. So there’s no need for this matter.”
“…If the teacher says so…”
Besides, it’s enough for me to play the role of being disliked all by myself.
Eve is more suited to being liked rather than liking others.
Although it wasn’t exactly carrot and stick, I didn’t want to disrupt the roles of me and Eve, who were so different from each other.
Even so, I let out a small laugh at Eve, who pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, and stood up.
“I’m going to settle this now. You just relax here.”
“From now on…?”
“Ah, we can’t carry this over to tomorrow’s class. Class time is precious, you know.”
Eve, who had been wide-eyed, after a while broke into a gentle smile and stood up from the bed.
“Take care, Sensei.”
“Ah, I’m off.”
Seeing Eve off, I headed to the inn in the town of Estelle.
“Seriously, didn’t I tell you not to practice on your own that much?”
Cursing under my breath, I walk down the main street of Estelle.
When I arrived at the inn where Louis and the others were staying and asked Anna, she said that Louis was not there.
Perhaps she didn’t expect me to come all the way here on purpose, so she was extremely surprised and apologized, saying she was sorry for lying. I replied, “It’s ten years too early to try to outsmart me,” and lightly tapped her forehead.
I can understand Anna’s feelings as well.
However, it can also lead to the worst incidents.
By downplaying the actual incidents and the Mu case, I strongly impressed upon them.
If I spoke firmly to Milky and Yuuri, who were in the room, they also understood.
They also did it thinking of Louis, but it seems they were vaguely aware that it was actually a bad idea.
After explaining, I felt Milky’s gaze as I told them I was heading to Louis’s place and left the room.
However, it was not the same glare as before; she seemed to be trying to say something, but in the end, she never came closer.
What was that? I thought, but I didn’t feel like going out of my way to ask, so I just left the inn as it was.
And so, when I came to the square as Anna had told me, I found Louis, completely absorbed, swinging his sword under the moonlight.
“Hey, hey, you’re really practicing on your own, huh――”
This is a fist. Just as I was about to mutter a complaint to Rui, thinking how ridiculous it was, I stopped in my tracks upon seeing his movement.
I found out what Louis is doing right now.
The sword technique being brushed aside. The way the body moves and pivots. Movements that are never shown during lessons.
D-rank combat skill “Wind Cutter.”
The sensation of the core of my head gradually cooling down.
The feeling that everything I had been thinking about just blows away.
“Hey”
The voice that was uttered was low, as if crawling on the ground.
The voice reached Louis’s ears on the wind, and Louis stopped swinging his sword and turned around.
He caught sight of me and made an awkward face.
“Uh, Endy-san…”
“What are you doing?”
“Th-this is, um… a reenactment of the battle techniques…”
“I don’t remember telling you to do such a thing.”
There’s no way I would say something like that.
Let alone recreating combat techniques that are above my level of proficiency.
As he spoke with a glare, Louis clenched his teeth.
“Well, but… I’ll try harder.”
“I told you, didn’t I? No practicing on your own.”
“But, but…”
“From now on, all self-practice is prohibited. Especially the recreation of the combat techniques you are currently practicing.”
“!?
Louis’s body trembled.
The clenched fist is filled with strong power, trembling with rage.
As if to express Louis’s feelings of looking down, the trembling accumulated within him for a few seconds.
“Don’t mess with me!!”
And finally, it exploded.
