Editing Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume3 Chapter3 (section)

===Part 1===

—And just like that, Kamito went towards the fundamental subject classroom to take the supplementary class.

Since Est disliked sitting down and listening to the lecture, she seemed to be playing with Scarlet outside.

When he opened the door of the classroom, he spotted an appearance he recognized from behind among the scattered students.

That blue pony-tail was... without a doubt, the captain of the Knights, Ellis.

"She's also in the supplementary class?"

It was a little surprising that that serious knight girl had failed the lecture.

Kamito approached from behind to try to call out to her.

For the time being, he had to explain about this morning's incident.

Ellis opened her thick book, which was written in spirit language, and was softly muttering it out.

In her engrossment in studying, she seemed to have completely not noticed that Kamito was drawing closer.

(By any chance, is she simply trying to memorize the contents of the book word for word?)

He thought that it couldn't be so, but the person herself was seriously trying to memorize it.

(...I see, she's the type that's overly serious and poor at studying.)

It was the same headlong type as her battle style. Types like this would make progress as long as they did not make a mistake in the way of putting in effort, however, they would stumble many times from time to time.

"Yo, Ellis."

"Hyan!"

The moment Kamito called out, a cutting-flash occurred.

As Ellis turned around, she swung her sword downwards.

"..."

The sword stuck in the desk and it bent.

Kamito had dodged the slash with a paper-thin difference.

"A-Are... you trying to kill me?!"

"Ka-Kazehaya Kamito... don't suddenly stand behind me!"

Despite that he was almost killed, she ended up being angry. ...How absurd.

"That was a very cute scream, Captain."

"Do you want to be made into chicken pilaf?"

Ellis' eyes dangerously hung up.

...It was very good that the variation of her cooking seemed to be spreading out nicely.

"I'm sorry for surprising you. Ellis, are you also taking supplementary class?"

"Yeah, that's right. I had failed the fundamental subject."

"It's a painful thing for both of us. Since, we're in the same supplementary class after all, let us get along nicely."

"Don't group me together with you, I was busy with the Knights work and failed to earn the credit!"

<!--56-->
As he made a bitter smile at an enraged Ellis, Kamito sat beside her.

As expected, she wasn't wearing the Knights armor when she took the supplementary class.

Ellis in a normal uniform was somewhat refreshing.

She always had that gallant impression, but now she felt somewhat lovely.

(...By the way, Ellis' breasts are surprisingly big.)

Kamito was tentatively also a boy in puberty. It couldn't be helped that his eyes unconsciously went over there.

(With that size, isn't it considerably tight in the Knights breastplate?)

He was thinking about such things, when—

"Err... Kazehaya Kamito."

Suddenly, Ellis coughed.

"Uh?"

"It's regarding this morning, but I'm sorry."

"Eh?"

"I heard the circumstances from Claire and the others after that. It appears that I had misunderstood. I'm sorry... I want you to forgive me."

Ellis shook her ponytail and bowed her head down.

"Ah, don't worry about it. Instead, if Ellis didn't come at that time, how should I put it, I feel that that would have turned into various terrible things."

<!--57-->
Kamito made a bitter smile as he waved his hand, and Ellis breathed a sigh of relief.

"They were making chocolates for the Valentia Holy Festival, right?"

"...Ya, that seemed like it. Ellis, would you happen to be making it too?"

"M-Me!?"

At that moment, Ellis turned bright red.

"I-I don't have an interest in that kind of insolent event!"

She suddenly flared up for some reason.

"To make merry in such an event is outrageous, it's like neglecting one's duty as an academy student."

Ellis coughed, and fixed her sights on her spirit subject textbook again.

To cool her flushed face, she began to mutter and memorize again.

Being unable to just watch, Kamito advised her.

"Ellis, even without memorizing everything, isn't it alright to memorize just the important parts?"

"B-But, in that case, I would not be studying it precisely."

"It's much more futile to blindly memorize without understanding the contents. Look."

"Fuaa, Wh-Wha-What are you doing?!"

"Since, you have seriously taken down your notes, I'll teach you just the important parts."

Kamito looked at the book from the side, and Ellis was flustered.

"Hn, what's the matter?"

<!--58-->
<small>"Y-Your arm is touching my breast... Err..."</small>

"Hn?"

She seemed to have said something, but her voice was too soft such that he couldn't hear it.

Kamito drew his face even closer, and Ellis' face turned bright red.

Without caring, Kamito was placing marks one after another with the pencil onto the textbook.

"This is like this, right? And, this is—"

"U-Um, I see... Your teaching method is good."

"Is that so?"

Well, certainly if compared to Claire's teaching method, it might be better. There was the time he got Claire to explain the contents of the lecture before, but... honestly, he completely did not understand what she was saying.

A genius type like Claire often seemed bad at teaching others.

"T-The next time, teach me various things again. Your explanations are very easy to understand."

"Ahh, no problem."

Kamito friendlily assured her, and then, he set his sights towards the platform in a fluster.

Before he knew it, his lecturer-in-charge Freya was standing on the platform.

If he had turned to the front a few seconds later, it was certain that a chalk would come flying at the speed of sound.
