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 9

The next early morning, I woke up as usual, carefully avoiding stepping on Eve by mistake as I left my room. After washing my face, I started preparing breakfast.

Roughly putting the bread bought in Estelle’s town into the toaster, I fry eggs and pork in the frying pan.

If you keep up with the routine tasks for several days, the kitchen will be filled with a savory aroma.

Lightly check the doneness, take a plate from the shelf, and place the wild vegetables taken out from the refrigerator on it.

Just as they were perfectly cooked and starting to emit a mouthwatering aroma, I plated the fried eggs and bacon.

If you take the bread out of the toaster, a very easy breakfast is ready.

“Two servings, huh?”

Starting today, I made some for Eve as well, so the quantity has increased.

I resolved to make them work off this debt with another household chore and was about to carry it to the table in the adjacent living room.

“Ah, you’re awake.”

“Good morning, Sensei. …Excuse me, is there anything I can help with?”

Eve was standing in the hallway.

“No, it’s not a problem. You don’t have to worry about meals for a while. Instead, please take care of the cleaning and laundry properly.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Come on, let’s eat before it gets cold.”

I will leave breakfast on the table.

By the time I finished carrying the dishes in two trips, Eve was already seated at the table I had assigned yesterday.

Staring intently at the breakfast set before him.

“What’s wrong? Don’t worry, there’s no poison in it.”

Saying it jokingly, I take a bite of the bread.

Eve glanced at me and murmured, “No.”

“I-I don’t think that even a little… I’ll have it.”

Eve picks up the bread just like I do and slowly brings it to her mouth.

After chewing for a moment, he slightly widened his eyes.

She picks up a wooden fork and reaches for the bacon and fried eggs.

“It’s delicious.”

“Really? It’s just a meal made with ordinary ingredients sold in Estelle’s town, you know? I’m not exactly a great cook or anything.”

“That might be true, but… it might be because I’m eating with you, Sensei. It’s not my first time eating with someone, but… I think it’s delicious because I feel like it’s my first time.”

Although the words were insufficient, I somewhat understood what was meant.

Until now, Eve had formed parties with other adventurers.

Of course, there must have been times when we had meals at that party.

However, for Eve, who hadn’t been getting along well with the members, this might be her first experience of having a meal “with others.”

“Well, if it tastes good, then isn’t that enough?”

“Yes.”

After those words, a silence fell between Eve and me.

It wasn’t an uncomfortable silence; it was just a feeling of eating breakfast while soaking in the calm atmosphere of the moment.

Without slowing down our eating, the two of us keep clearing our plates.

Just as I was about to finish eating, I called out to Eve.

“I’ll share the plans for today.”

Upon hearing the words, Eve shifted her gaze from her hands to me and straightened her back.

I nodded inwardly at the attitude of seriously listening so as not to miss a single word.

“From now on, if you don’t take on any requests, you’ll accompany me in hunting monsters around here. However, you’ll be the main one hunting the monsters. The goal is to improve your swordsmanship.”

“I understand.”

“If you happen to increase your proficiency, the number of techniques you can use will also increase. If that happens, they will also be targets for optimization.”

The number of techniques you can use is influenced by your skill proficiency.

And while proficiency improves through mock battles, hunting monsters is also efficient.

Because she has mastered the new method of replicating combat techniques, increasing the number of techniques multiplies Eve’s strength many times over.

I was thinking it was about time to improve my skills, so Eve moving into this house was perfectly timed.

It’s quite impressive to have made this much progress in just a few months. As for sword skills, it’s only a matter of time before he can replicate almost all the techniques currently available. …I need to teach him strength in other areas soon.

“Thank you for the meal. It was delicious.”

“Sure, I’m glad you’re satisfied.”

After finishing the meal, I took my plate and Eve’s plate and headed back to the kitchen.

“Shh!”

Eve’s straight sword accurately strikes the neck of the small beast-type monster “Red Cap,” severing it.

The monster that had lost its head fell sideways weakly, turning its body to ash and leaving behind only a small magic stone before disappearing.

While watching Eve collect the magic stones from behind, I call out to her.

“I’ve been hunting monsters for a while now, so how about it? Do you feel like you’re stronger than before?”

Since she started taking my classes, Eve had limited her requests as an adventurer to solo ones.

As a result, it seems that instead of monster subjugation, only non-combat requests like transporting goods and gathering materials were left.

In other words, today was the day I used the optimized combat technique on a monster for the first time.

Eve turns her whole body towards me.

Although I have defeated many monsters from morning until now, there isn’t a single scratch on my body.

“Yes, I definitely feel lighter and stronger than before. It’s thanks to your guidance, Sensei.”

“That’s good to hear. Just don’t let your guard down, okay? The monsters around here aren’t that strong.”

“I’ve heard that the strength of monsters varies depending on the region.”

Nodding in response to Eve’s words, I pictured the map of the entire country of Cielera in my mind.

“This country has a particularly strong tendency in that regard. Cielera, where you awakened, and here in Estelle, for example, have notably weaker monster powers, so there are many fledgling and novice adventurers. On the other hand, in the northern parts of this country, like Yutonia and Roselia, the strength of the monsters increases somewhat. It’s more of an area for intermediate adventurers.”

“.Before you came here, you were in Yutonia, weren’t you, Sensei?”

It seems like I remembered something we talked about vaguely before.

I lightly replied with “Ah” to Eve’s words and reminisced about the past.

“I’ve been in Yutonia for a long time, but the level of monsters here is definitely different. The quality of the requests too. To surpass that, it would have to be something like the royal capital.”

At the same time, the quality of adventurers also varies greatly.

As expected, the strong gather in the royal capital of Annenberg within Cielera, but it also feels like the adventurers from Yutonia and Roselia have a good mix of mid-level to veteran members.

“You’ll probably be moving your base there soon too. Make sure to memorize things like the geography, climate, and customs of Cielera and other countries while you can.”

“Understood. Next time I go to Estelle, I’ll make sure to buy the relevant books and such.”

“Ah, that’s good. Now, let’s continue the monster hunting.”

“Yes!”

Cheerfully responding, Eve heads back to the monster subjugation.

For several more months from here, Eve only occasionally completed requests, spending the rest of her mornings diligently hunting monsters.

The sword proficiency quickly rose from F to E, and I also optimized the reproduction of the newly acquired combat techniques.

At this pace, it felt like it wouldn’t be long before moving up to D.
