(EP-197.2) Things #1
197 – Student Things #1
“So, you had your cavity removed?”
Upon hearing my story, Elga burst into laughter, leaning back as if lounging on a bench. How exaggerated. I just had a tooth pulled out and my cheek was painfully swelling, that was all!
“Still, I’m glad the cavity got removed. Nymphs can grow them back, right? You’ll get a new one soon.”
“Well, that’s true....”
As I trailed off, Elga stretched lazily and said.
“Hey, do you really think Aira is going to listen to lectures like other students, or do the assignments given by the professors?”
“.......”
Even Elga, whom I trusted, was making fun of me. But she was right. Right now, Elga herself was skipping her lecture and was leisurely swinging her legs in the park.
How much effort would it take to sit Aira, who was even more unpredictable, in a classroom?
As I pondered for a while, perhaps from seeing my serious expression, Elga seemed to misunderstand and hastily added to justify herself.
“Well, of course, if you work hard, you can make it happen somehow. We can’t lose to Empress Serazade. It’s unthinkable for Angmar to lose to her! With things like this, should I enter the Queen Contest?”
“Elga-nim?”
“That’s right. July Queen... Isn’t it fitting? I was born in August after all, which is still a part of the summer season!”
‘Indeed.’
If Elga entered, she would likely be ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) well-received, her charisma could carry through. Just look at her avid supporters in the Lioness army.
Were the guards called the Lion Corps? Well, the Lion Corps was, in fact, like Elga’s devoted fan club.
With her shining appearance and contributions, Elga was no different than an idol in the military. Participating in the contest would likely yield significant results.
But as the application requirements came to mind, I shook my head.
“You can’t, Elga-nim.”
“... What? Are you saying I’m inferior to Aira or Serazade!?”
Elga deeply frowned, as if she were about to grab me by the collar. It must have been very insulting for her to not be eligible, when even Aira and Serazade joined.
「You have calmly judged the situation!
You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.
All job experience +5」
Elga, this woman, didn’t look at the poster.
Well, the intricate clauses and provisions written in the eligibility requirements couldn’t have caught the eyes of the straightforward Elga.
So I decided to just inform her.
“Elga-nim is incredibly beautiful and charming. But there’s a big reason why you can’t participate in the contest.”
“A big reason? Is it because of my chest?”
“... that.”
Indeed, it was bigger compared to others’. However, that was not the reason.
I shook my head and said.
“Ark, according to Article 2, Paragraph 3 of the church’s Festival Management Regulations, only virgin women can participate in the contest, which will be verified by unicorn.”
“What? A unicorn?”
“That’s right. A single-horned beast, a unicorn.”
“Unicorns are beasts with a horn on their heads and they can check one’s virginity?”
“That’s right.”
“.......”
Elga fell silent. It was probably because she knew best that she was not a virgin anymore. Likewise, Draco’s twins weren’t either.
“... I used to be chaste too. I was more than qualified for the Queen contest.”
