Editing Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut:Volume 9 Episode 6 (section)

===Part 1===

Since enrolling into Cross Field’s Academy, things were going well for Lux.

Of course, there were only daughters of nobles around him, so problem would occur with him being the only male.

Because of his past as a prince of the old empire──and furthermore because of his role as a chore boy, sometimes there would be strange request coming to him from the female students, and sometimes he would also get dragged into various turmoil.

Even so if Lux’s unique status was taken into consideration, it could be said that he had managed to blend into the Academy enough.

That was thanks to the girls around him.

Krulcifer who taught him the lesson, or Philuffy who was treating him the same like in the past.

Everyone of the Triad who acted amiably with him, or his little sister Airi who was controlling his reputation at the Academy, and so on. He was supported by many comrades and obtained a place to belong.

But, recently that was one thing that made Lux worry.

It wasn’t about his current life in the Academy that was going well, it was──.

「Lux Arcadia. Do you have time? There is something that I have to tell you.」

It’s weekday at Academy──the short break after the morning class was over.

Instructor Raigree who exited the classroom beckoned at him, calling Lux out to the corridor where there wasn’t anyone else.

Even Lux who had got thoroughly involved with many great incidents would be a bit nervous if he was called by a teacher.

(What could it be? I think I didn’t do anything bad recently though──)

Raigree was a self-reliant woman, so Lux never received even a single request from her.

If this was something like a warning or instruction to him, he believed she would act more brazenly but──.

While Lux was cautious like that, a sentence about something that normally he put out of his mind came to him. In a sense it could be said that it was just as expected.

「Perhaps this is something that I originally should say to you. But, about that first year student, the girl who had just enrolled here, what’s the deal with her?」

「Aaa……」

The moment Lux heard that, his face turned really complicated.

Even without listening to the detail, he understood everything just from that single sentence.

「This is about That girl from nation of Koto who introduced herself as your servant. That assassin of the old empire, Kirihime Yoruka.」

In the past she confronted Lux who didn’t wish for the revival of the old empire and both of them crossed swords.

But, at the end of that, the understood each other’s feeling and reconciled. Yoruka then swore allegiance to Lux.

After that with Lux’s intermediation──more accurately Lisha’s intermediation that Lux requested, she was enrolled into the Academy under the pretext that the new kingdom would manage her.

Since then Yoruka should be spending peaceful days in the Academy as a first year student. But,

「I have told you before, Lux. That girl, she isn’t blending into the Academy at all.」

「As I thought, it’s like that……」

Raigree’s expression was displeased. Lux also responded with a complicated expression.

Yoruka’s personality was like a fluttering wind that cannot be grasped, her way of thinking and action were also really particular.

Furthermore because her skill as Drag-Knight was also outstanding, Lux could easily imagine how she would be completely out of place even in the class.

But, his little sister Airi and Noct of Triad were also Yoruka’s classmate, so Lux thought that they would follow up on her just barely, but──.

「Could it be, Yoruka is feeling troubled because she cannot get used to the Academy?」

「……Do you think so?」

The smiling face of the serious Instructor Raigree was scary.

「Eerr, is everyone around her troubled just as I thought?」

When Lux asked back awkwardly, Instructor Raigree took out a memo from her pocket.

‘Ah, I get a bad feeling.’

「In the middle of class, she said things like guarding you and sneaked away as she pleased. She isn’t talking at all with her classmates. At training, she ignored the menu and did self-practice willfully. At mock battle, she used her partner as decoy to defeat her opponent. She won’t listen to the instructor. She ignores the regulation for sleeping and waking up time. She won’t reflect even when she is scolded. In her clothes she is carrying hidden weapons that she won’t part with. She took off her clothes as she pleased……」

「I, I get it! It’s enough already!」

By the way, it seemed that list still had half remaining.

Until now Airi who was in the same class settled down the troubles, but as expected it seemed that Yoruka’s actions couldn’t be overlooked anymore.

Thus, it seemed that the talk came to Lux like this as he was the one leading her.

「But, I have to be the one warning her? Certainly she was calling me her master but, this is more or less a matter in the Academy, so someone like the headmaster Relie-san or even one of the teachers──」

「Do you believe, that girl will properly listen to anyone other than you?」

「I’m sorry……」

He was taking into consideration his position inside the Academy, but he retracted his statement when he saw Raigree’s twitching face.

「It was Princess Lisha who proposed the enrollment of Yoruka, but it was you who asked her to do that right? Take responsibility to look after that girl as her master. This is my first request to you.」

「I, understand.」

Lux could only nod at the completely sound argument.

After the battle, he wanted to give a new place to belong for Yoruka who returned back to him.

Even though he had decided to look after her, and yet he was unable to guide her properly. That was his blunder.

Before the problem was getting bigger than this in the Academy, he had to guide Yoruka to act properly no matter what.

「──Yosh.」

After he had decided that, he immediately took action.

Although, for Lux whose class and grade were different from Yoruka, there were still a lot of things that he didn’t know.

Thus, first he had to gather accurate information.

Lux who bid farewell to Raigree returned to his classroom and sat down.

(Perhaps I should cancel my chores today as much as possible……)

He was thinking of such thing while concentrating on the rest of his class.
