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 8
A few months have passed since I started teaching on Eve.
She takes on requests as an adventurer from morning until evening, and afterwards, she works on improving her combat skills in my classroom.
It had only been a few months, but Eve had made significant progress.
“Haaah!!”
“Alright. Keep it up and use your combat skills more and more!”
In the evening, in the backyard behind the classroom, my weapon clashes with Eve’s.
The scene, with Eve’s straight sword drawn and my sword still sheathed, is the same as when we first clashed.
However, that movement is so good that it makes you look like a completely different person.
“Good ‘Strong Slash.’ ‘Collapse’ is also being done properly. Good, you’re following everything I’ve taught you so far.”
“Yes! Thank you very much!”
Eve’s sword skill rank is still a beginner-level F.
The minimum value is G, so it only goes up by one from there.
However, I had completed the optimization of almost all the combat techniques that could be used in G and F.
Having a skill rated F is something that all sixth-level adventurers like Eve possess, but compared to the combat skills of other adventurers of the same rank, Eve’s combat skills are a head, no, two heads above the rest.
As evidence of that, I felt the weight from the impact transmitted through the sheathed sword.
“Right there!”
Eve unleashes a powerful technique as if to deliver the final blow.
Twisting the sword towards the left side of the torso and then swinging it down in one swift motion—this is the “Kazenagi.”
I caught it with my sheathed sword.
I am startled by the impact felt in my arm.
I knew very well that the growth was rapid because I had seen it every day for the past few months.
But when you actually experience it, you easily overcome it.
Because it feels more amazing than I expected, I raise my expectations, and it surpasses even that.
Over and over again. There’s no way this isn’t fun.
“Not bad. No, rather, quite good.”
“Haah… haah… thank you very much…”
Since she had engaged in a mock battle and used almost all the combat techniques she could, Eve was gasping for breath.
However, it seemed like they were happy, as the corners of their mouth were slightly lifted.
After a few months of guidance, it feels like Eve’s expression has softened a bit.
It’s much better than the anxious expression you had when we first met, where you seemed to be gauging my reaction.
It can also serve as a criterion for judging whether the guidance is going well.
“Fuh… um, teacher”
Regaining her breath and returning the straight sword to its sheath at her waist, Eve called out to me.
“What is it?”
“I have one request, if you don’t mind.”
“Request? What is it?”
“Would it be possible for me to stay at your house, Sensei?”
“Huh?”
I don’t understand what you’re saying, so I ask you to repeat it.
Eve is still looking straight at me.
“I usually stay at an inn in the town of Estelle, but would it be possible for me to stay at your house?”
“Oh, I see.”
I listened to the story and was convinced.
Eve probably wants to save on accommodation costs.
“Well, since I’m working solo, it’s inevitable that the quality of requests will drop. If the quality drops, the rewards will drop too. Naturally, you’ll feel a sense of crisis when you’re barely making ends meet.”
“That’s true. However, if I don’t stay at the inn, there won’t be any requests to accept in the first place. The teacher said to continue the adventurer’s job, but I would rather learn more here and train myself.”
“I see.”
I understand what you want to say.
Well, I basically had them take on the request just to get used to working solo. After all this time, it should be enough. Plus, having motivation is a good thing.
The goal has been achieved, and Eve is full of motivation.
I don’t want to miss this opportunity.
“Alright, good.”
Thank you very much!
Recently, Eve has been giving responses that are completely familiar and pleasant to hear.
However, along the way, I realized something.
“Oh, no, that’s not going to work. Now that I think about it, there’s no place for you to sleep at my house.”
My house is only intended for me to live in, so there are no extra rooms.
I want to let Eve stay over, but it’s physically impossible.
However, Eve didn’t change a single expression upon hearing that.
“I don’t mind if it’s in the hallway, the bathroom, or anywhere else.”
“Yeah, that’s not how it works.”
“Excuse me, if you don’t mind, could you show me your house?”
“Huh?”
“What are you talking about?” I ask back, but Eve just stares into my eyes.
I thought about it for a moment, but concluded that if I actually saw it, this guy would probably give up too.
“Alright, look as much as you want.”
“Yes”
In response to my words, Eve answered without missing a beat.
The house I live in is a bit far from the classroom.
A stone-built single-story house made by Mr. Ittetsu. I opened the door and invited Eve inside.
“This is the living room… well, the sitting room, I guess. It’s shared with the kitchen. And at the end of the hallway are the washroom and bathroom, with my private room right in front of them.”
I will briefly explain each room.
I intended to make them understand that there was no room by actually showing them.
“Wouldn’t it be better to lay the futon here?”
However, Eve said something unexpected.
What Eve suggested was to lay out a futon in the empty space of my private room.
Indeed, there is a space where I could sleep alone. However.
“Do you even know what you’re saying?”
“Uh? D-Did I say something strange?”
Apparently, Eve seemed to have no sense of danger about men and women sleeping in the same room.
After all, I have amnesia, so I don’t have that kind of knowledge, huh?
Rather, it’s me who’s dirty, I clicked my tongue at myself.
“Um, teacher… may I use this?”
“Ah, if you’re okay with it, then it’s fine.”
I somehow felt it was pointless to think about various things, so I agreed.
“Thank you very much!”
Eve’s mouth corners were slightly upturned as she answered that way.
After Eve went to the inn to pick up her luggage, I headed to my private study desk and checked the information about her.
The techniques optimized in previous lessons and the feel of daily mock battles are meticulously recorded and compiled into a booklet.
Every time I flipped through it, I could clearly see how rapidly Eve had grown.
A stretch that makes you swoon.
A bundle of talent that makes you want to laugh just by watching.
“I have just returned, Sensei.”
“Did you come back?”
Looking back, it seems that Eve had just returned.
Eve sets down the load she was carrying on her back, but no matter how you look at it, the amount is small.
It seems like they bought a futon in Estelle’s town, but even considering that, it’s a manageable amount for one person to carry.
“Is that all?”
“Yes”
It seems like they are the type who doesn’t need many things.
Considering that there might be memory loss and that she probably doesn’t have any attachment to things, Eve approached and peered into the work desk.
“Teacher, what on earth… this is…”
“Ah, it’s a record about you.”
Since it’s not something I would mind being seen, I answered, and Eve slightly raised the corners of her mouth.
“You’ve gone this far for my sake, haven’t you?”
“Huh? Of course. I need to make you stronger and turn you into a top-tier adventurer so you can bring in the money.”
“What’s so obvious about it?” is the response.
“That’s right. It’s for the money. That’s why I’ll become stronger and definitely repay the favor.”
“Ah, that’s a commendable mindset.”
Apparently, Eve was a genius not only as a student but also as a goldmine.
It seems like you understand, which is the most important thing, and I nod in satisfaction.
My plan seems to be going quite smoothly.
Since we were going to live together, I showed Eve around the house.
Of course, I have no intention of letting you live here for free.
Those who do not work shall not eat. They will even have to do housework.
I took my time teaching them how to clean and do laundry.
I was anxious because of the memory loss, but since I usually pick things up quickly, Eve learned it easily.
However, I haven’t taught them about cooking yet because I’m still a bit scared. I’ll observe them a little longer, and if they seem okay, I’ll let them try.
And so time passed, and it became late at night.
In my private room, there was a futon laid out for Eve, and she had already finished taking off her armor and changed into her nightwear.
We have agreed to use this private room for changing clothes, while the other person will go out to the living room.
“Good night, teacher.”
“Ah, good night.”
Eve then crawled into bed and began to breathe peacefully.
It was an incredibly vivid way of falling asleep.
I’m not very good at falling asleep, so I’m envious.
“I know it’s a bit self-serving to say, but don’t you have at least some sense of urgency?”
Of course, I would never do anything to Eve.
This guy is going to be a goldmine in the future. In other words, his market value is incredibly high.
I have no intention whatsoever of doing something as foolish as lowering it myself.
Well, the very idea of getting involved with a student is ethically unacceptable in the first place.
That said, when someone is this carefree, it actually makes me worry.
Should we also provide guidance on the differences between men and women and the importance of having a sense of crisis?
“What a hassle.”
Why do I have to teach you even that?
It’s better than dealing with a troublesome child, but still, amnesia is quite a hassle, and I felt a bit gloomy about it.
