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 59

“Ugh, seriously! What the heck?!”

At night, in our room at the inn, Milky is holding her head in her hands.

Realizing who it was referring to, I gave a wry smile.

“It seems like they were kind of sweet-talked, doesn’t it? At first, it was about guidance for Louis, but before we knew it, it turned into a conversation about Eve…”

Yurii seems to be thinking the same thing, as she is wearing a wry smile just like mine.

“…I also started to lose track of things halfway through…”

“But isn’t it a good thing to be able to fight against Eve? Even if her weapon is a spear, she’s still that

Eve. I’m sure you’ll gain a lot from it.”

“Well, I guess I do appreciate him for that. Just for that, though.”

I almost burst out laughing when I saw Milky turn her head and say that.

Did Yuuri feel the same way? She spoke teasingly.

“Milky was worried about Louis, right? But now that Louis is showing such a dignified face, you don’t know where to direct your feelings, do you?”

“Hey! Y-Yuuri, you!”

“Because you’ve always had a bit of a big sister attitude towards Louis.”

“……It’s just that when I look at Louis, he seems a bit reckless.”

Milky being teased and Yuuri doing the teasing.

As I was watching the two of them, it seemed that Milky noticed my gaze.

“But isn’t that the same for Anna? When Louis said he wanted to do archery, you were against it, weren’t you?”

“……At first, I really thought, ‘Is that really okay?'”

In fact, when I heard the story from Louis, I confirmed it multiple times.

There were various reasons, like worrying about the party and worrying about Louis future.

But the main reason is that I felt it was a shame for Louis to part with the sword we had worked so hard on together.

“But even if I cut my hair, when you look at me with those straight eyes… well…”

However, Louis in the classroom was filled with determination, enough to blow away such reasons.

It’s to the point where I’ve never seen anything like it before.

“My personality has changed a bit too, you know. …I never thought Louis would scold me, though.”

Seeing Milky muttering again while looking away, my mischievous side came out, and I chuckled softly.

“You’re confused by the changed Louis, aren’t you?”

“…So it’s not like that… I think the current Louis is better than before.”

I intended to mutter it quietly, but I was overheard, and I smiled.

Seeing that, Milky turned her face away shyly.

“…I mean, well, so that’s true for Anna too, right?”

“Well, that’s true, but…”

Smiling ambiguously, I lean back against the chair.

Louis has changed. The current Louis bears little resemblance to the Louis of the past.

There is no sight of my little brother who always followed me around.

If you ask whether I have any thoughts on that, of course I do.

But more than that.

“Boy, kids grow up so fast…”

Muttering in a voice so small that no one can hear my current feelings, I look out the window.

Louis, who has stopped practicing on his own, is surely not looking at the same sky.

However, as usual, I murmured softly.

“Hang in there, Louis.”

I muttered something I’ve been thinking about for a long time.

The Iselia region, where the town of Estelle is located.

We were visiting the Razvia territory to the north in a magical carriage, just the two of us.

The goal is to hunt monsters.

That said, dealing with the monsters in the Razvia territory is still too much for Louis right now.

It might be a bit less efficient, but I was planning to buy enough time for Louis to attack by holding the front line.

“I’m going!”

Numerous arrows wrapped in the wind that came flying from above at an angle.

They are injuring the body of the monster “Scarebear” that I am holding back.

I will just hold off “Scabare” without drawing my sword from its sheath.

And due to the released arrows, the movements of the large bear gradually worsened.

“Right there!”

The spiraling arrow struck and pierced the right arm of the “Scabear” that was attacking me.

“GYAAAaaaaaa!!”

A bear looking up and screaming because it was pierced by a small hole.

The arrow struck his forehead with a somewhat loud sound.

The next arrow pierces the forehead of the bear with wide-open eyes.

The swaying giant body. The countless arrows continuing to pierce.

Even at the moment the giant beast fell, Louis did not hesitate to shoot an arrow.

Along the way, with an arrow lodged in its neck, the body of “Scabear” sinks to the ground.

It was obvious that he was dead without needing to confirm it.

“Teacher! Are you okay?”

I immediately heard a voice from behind me, and when I turned around, Louis was rushing towards me, out of breath.

“The opponent is just a Scarebear. It will be fine, of course.”

“Y-yeah, right…”

“More importantly, with a frontliner, you can truly show your worth. It would be tough on your own, but against a Scabear, even a decent frontliner could lead us to victory. And above all…”

Glimpsing at Louis’s eyes, I continue speaking.

“You really have a good eye. At that moment, you disabled the Scabear’s arm that was about to attack me. And that’s not all. Even before that, you shot arrows to positions that were troublesome for the Scabear many times.”

“Because the teacher showed me the way… but thank you!”

Louis’s greatest advantage is his eyes.

Of course, the bow is well-suited, but this guy is inherently skilled at distinguishing between enemies and allies.

So, I proposed a path.

It’s not a role as a sub-attacker, but rather an archer who restricts the enemy’s movements and supports allies, thereby turning the tide of battle in their favor.

Louis accepted the proposal and turned it into reality beyond my expectations.

For that reason, until now, I had been defending against monster attacks while also guiding the timing of our attacks, but we are now entering a phase where that is no longer necessary.

Louis is now skilled at observing both opponents and allies from a bird’s-eye view, deriving the optimal answer, and launching an attack accordingly.

From my perspective, I was stepping into a new path and walking on my own two feet.

“……If I could do this much, I didn’t need a month. This will blow Anna and the others away. After all, the arrows are flying to the most convenient places for us.”

“Y-you’re praising me too much, Sensei.”

“Don’t be ridiculous, it’s the truth. …That said, if we’re talking about the truth, there are still issues. Our attack power is still lacking as usual, and the variety of attacks we can use is still quite limited.”

Louis’s eyes are a kind of talent, but they are not sweet enough to win by themselves.

If his talent for archery were on par with Eve’s swordsmanship and magic or Mu’s magic, he might have been called a god of archery in the world, but judging by the way his proficiency is increasing, he’s just a somewhat capable adventurer.

Even though he said something harsh, Louis nodded clearly with a serious expression.

“To do that, I need to quickly improve my proficiency, get accustomed to as many combat techniques as possible, and gain combat experience to handle various situations… right?”

“Yeah, you really get it, don’t you? That’s the spirit. Let’s keep this up and hunt down more and more.”

“Yes!”
Responding happily to my words, Louis stands right next to me.

Watching that scene, I remembered that when we traveled by the magic carriage, we were quite close to each other too.

When we first met, he was shy and kept his distance, but once we got to know each other, he might be the type to close the personal space gap.

Well, it’s not like there’s any annoying body contact, so being a little close is fine, I guess.

I thought that, and then shifted my focus back to the monster subjugation in the Razbia territory.
