After school, a few days after the date. 

Ange walks down the hallway, being pulled along by Livia. 

Livia is strongly pulling Ange, who is not very enthusiastic. 

“Ange, it’s already started.” 

“Calm down, Livia. I’ll be coming over after I finish my errands.” 

“No. That is how you intend to distance yourself from Leon-san and not participate, is it not?” 

Livia sees that she had planned not to attend the gathering because of an errand. 

Ange, who is not happy about the situation, tells her why she doesn’t want to participate. 

“What kind of face should I show to Leon? I don’t want him to hate me more than this.” 

“If so then it’s unnecessary, please meet Leon-san! Everyone should be here by now.” Then Livia pulls her into the destination classroom. 

As the students had left the school, the classrooms that are usually used were quiet ―― not. 

Leon’s yelling comes from inside the classroom. 

“I said no!” 

Several other voices could be heard from the classroom to the hallway, and Ange and Livia looked at each other and nodded their heads. 

“What kind of gathering is this? Livia knows about this, right?” 

“No, I am told only by Leon-san that it was so he could make up with Ange.” 

“C-Could make up?” 

The fact that Leon wants to make up is great information for Ange. 

However, from inside the classroom, Leon’s shouts can be heard. 

“Go home! Go away! Please!” 

He keeps yelling desperately begging for someone to leave, but voices of refusal can be heard from inside the classroom. 

Standing in front of the door, Ange reaches out with all the courage she can muster. 

She opened the door a little and peeked inside, and there they were, the usual members of the group. 

(Noel’s here. Hmm? Is that His Highness Jake and the others over there? And the foreign exchange students from the empire. And Princess Erika?!) 

Standing at the podium teaching in the stairwell classroom, Leon repeatedly tapped the desk with the palm of his hand. 

In front of Leon’s eyes is a group of five people, led by Marie. 

Unusually, Leon is pleading with Marie and the others. 

“You guys are not invited! Please leave! I’ll give you the money!” 

Even though Leon would pay them and ask them to leave, Marie and her friends didn’t even try to leave. Normally, they would have received the money and left as soon as possible. 

Marie protests against Leon. 

“That’s how you plan to make yourselves feel good! I won’t allow it. I will never forgive you for that!” 

Behind Marie, clinging to the podium, was Julius, his eyes bloodshot. 

“Leon, we’re friends, right? So take me with you!” 

“When did I become your friend?” 

“Now!” 

“Be obedient and go away!” It is not only Julius. 

Even also Jilk. 

“Leon-kun, we are your subordinates. Don’t be so distant that you don’t want to depend on us?” 

“Don’t you ever think that I don’t want to depend on you, so I won’t take you with me? 

Go away.” 

Brad pushes Jilk away and begins to appeal to him to take him. 

“Then it is my turn, isn’t it? A magician like me must be indispensable. Now, promise me you’ll take me!” 

“No ne~ed! Go away and look in the mirror.” 

When Brad was also rejected, Greg now pushed him away forcefully. 

“This is where I come in, right, Leon! Unlike the rest of them, you need a man with experience and dependability. You can count on me!” 

“Go away, muscle” 

“Fufu, if you praise me, that means you’ll take me with you, right?” 

“――Sorry, go away” 

Gradually, Leon is losing his energy. 

Chris kicks Greg out of posing and asks Leon to let him join. 

“Leon, I can be useful. You had your adventures with me in the Republic, didn’t you? You and I are now a bonded party. In other words, we are friends who entrust our lives to each other. Please let me join you on this adventure――” Before Chris could finish, Ange was running. 

She pushes Chris away. 

“An adventure trip?!” 

“――Guhe” 

Chris, who had been pushed away, was groaning but couldn’t afford to worry about it now. 

Leon, looking at the excited Ange, was a little taken back. 

“Y-Yes. Actually, I was thinking of doing a treasure hunt and trying to make a plan today.” 

Looking closely, one could see an elaborate map on the blackboard. 

He was probably planning to make a plan from now on, but Marie and her friends came and annoyed him when they heard the story. 


Ange pushes Julius and Marie away and approaches Leon. 

“If you invited me, does that mean you want me to join?” 

The distance between each other’s noses is almost touching. 

Leon was blushing from embarrassment, but Ange was blushing with excitement when she heard about the adventure. 

When Leon backs away and creates distance, he clears his throat and then talks about his plan. 

“Obviously, I’m going to get Ange to help me. This time I’ll take Einhorn out and we’ll head for the floating island where the treasure is.” 

When Leon lightly hits the overhanging map with his fist a few times, Ange also moves closer to the blackboard to take a closer look at the map. “It’s a very elaborate map. The paper is new. Is it real?” 

“No doubt about it. The map was prepared by Luxion.” 

When Leon looks at Luxion, Ange’s gaze turns to him as well. 

Luxion moved the red lens up and down in a small motion as if nodding. 

[Yes. I made the old map look better.] 

“You can really do anything” 

While impressed, Ange quickly returns her gaze to the map. 

“A building? Is it an old castle?” 

As she mumbled, for some reason Marie interrupted the conversation. 

“It’s a dungeon in a collapsed old castle! There are lots of magic stones and treasures. 

If all goes well, I’ll get rich, get rid of my poverty, and I won’t have to flatter Ani—— Leon for money anymore!” 

Julius and his friends are even more motivated after hearing Marie’s excitement. 

“That means that Marie will spend less time with Leon. We will find the treasure and have time to spend with Marie. I can’t stand the thought of not being a part of such an amazing adventure!” 

Marie and her friends are talking as if they already have the treasure. 

Ange is strangely annoyed by this, but ignores it and talks to Leon. 

“I’m in. When? When do we leave?” 

Forgetting that her relationship with Leon was a bit awkward, Ange was clinging to him. 

She grabs Leon’s arm and hugs him. 

Leon, who was grabbed, is flabbergasted. 

“That’s why I gathered everyone together today to make those plans, and now all these unnecessary people get involved.” 

Leon’s gaze went to Jake and the others who seemed to have gathered in addition to Marie and the others. 

The short Jake crosses his arms and smiles fearlessly. 

“Anyone who hears of such an exciting adventure and does not join in is not a nobleman. Aare, you’re coming with me, aren’t you?” 

As a nobleman, of course! he announced firmly and crisply, then turned back to Aare, who was standing behind him. 

(Aa~, you want to show off your skills to women? His Highness Jake is too insincere about the adventures, so no.) 

Ange’s opinion of Jake has been dropped two steps, if not one step, in her mind. 

Aare stared at Jake, but this one was holding his hands together. 

“I would be happy if I could participate.” 

“Fufu, leave it to me. Duke Bartfalt, we are also joining in.” 

Jake tells him as if it were a decision, but Leon gives him a cold look. 

When Leon says, the five idiots, led by Julius, are booing Jake. 

“Right, you guys go away!” 

“What ?! You’re just a bastard who’s been disinherited!” A sibling quarrel that starts suddenly. 

Leon let out a big sigh. 

“Julius, you guys can leave too.” 

“Leon, don’t be cold about it! We’re friends, right?!” 

“Stop! Don’t cling to my legs!” 

The classroom was noisy, but when a man opened his mouth, it became quiet all at once. 

The man’s name is Oskar. 

“I would like to earn money for my future with Jenna-san. So, brother-in-law, would you be willing to let me participate?” 

Oskar speaks up naturally, but those around him who know what is going on look at Leon. 

This involved family problems in the Bartfalt family, and the only one who could make a decision was Leon. 

Oskar, not understanding the change in the atmosphere of the place, asks Leon. 

“At this time, it doesn’t matter if it’s a chore. Please help me to become a man worthy of Jenna-san!” 

Oskar’s sincerity made Leon’s cheeks tighten. 

“I think you are worthy enough, and I’d rather feel sorry for you instead. Please, don’t bow down. I understand. I’ll take you with me.” 

“Is that true! I did it, His Highness Jake! It looks like I’m going to be allowed to participate.” 

Jake’s face turns red at Oskar’s report of his joy. 

“That’s where you should ask him to let your master join!” 

“Eh, me, do it?” 

Why should I be the one to beg? Oskar tilted his head, a look of not really understanding on his face. 

Then, in the classroom, which was getting noisy again, it was Livia who approached Ange. 

“Ange, that” 

Ange hugs Livia, who is worried. 

“Livia, it’s an adventure. Adventure! This time, unlike any before, it’s a real adventure. 

Maybe it’s a dungeon no one has ever set foot in. You’re in, right? Right ?!” 

As Ange’s eyes sparkled, Livia nodded with a complicated expression on her face.
