Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 168.1

Pulse

“…I didn’t know that was possible. I guess I’ll have to call her an idiot disciple as well… I’m sorry, young lady. She caused you trouble.”

“No, Aria has saved me many times. But I didn’t know that Aria’s magic teacher was a Dark Elf.

In the desert, lit only by starlight after the sun had set, Celeshura and Elena, sitting around a campfire, bowed their heads to each other as they finished talking about what had happened so far.

“…”

Ron seemed somewhat unsettled at the mention of Celeshura’s name, and continued to repair the balloon as if to distract himself. He had no intention of telling anyone about the name, but the name still had a great impact on him.

The two toddlers who had been frightened by the Coeurl, Nero, were now sleeping in Chaco’s lap. Among them was Noi, also a Dark Elf, who was being spoiled by the gentle-looking adult Dark Elf, a rare sight in town, while Celeshura was patting him on the head.

Although Nero was now cooperating with Celeshura, he was basically uninterested in anyone but Aria, glaring at the monsters from some distance because Aria would not appreciate anyone she protected getting hurt.

“I left the country right away as well, so… I’m sorry, I don’t know what’s going on in the country.”

“No, I’m glad to hear that you are moving to help Aria. So, what are you going to do now, Master Celeshura?”

“Well… before we get into that, can you tell me what you are planning to do?”

Celeshura looked straight into Elena’s eyes.

Strong eyes, Celeshura thought. She immediately recognized that this was the girl Aria was trying to protect, and she could understand why her unsociable and clumsy protégée was willing to risk her life to protect her.

But at the same time, she also felt that she was vulnerable. The impression Celeshura got from talking with her was that both Aria and Elena needed each other. It could was like the relationship between a master and an escort. They could be friends. But if Elena wanted to help Aria out with Celeshura, it could turn into dependence, not friendship.

But Elena nodded quietly with calm eyes as she responded to Celeshura’s words.

“First, we will head to the Khalfaan empire, announce our identities, and contact my home country to ask for help. I will contact the Prime Minister and ask him to dispatch Aria’s companion…[Rainbow Sword], along with the Dark Side’s escort knights.”

The Rainbow Sword was one of the leading Rank 5 adventuring parties in the Kingdom of Claydale. Normally, higher ranks would easily travel out of the country, but when they became as powerful and connected to the nobility as they were, they would not be able to leave the country so easily.

They may consider saving Aria, as they were very compassionate. But if there was any obstacle, whether financial or travel, Elena would be willing to use all her authority for Aria’s sake.

“I see…”

Celeshura nodded, thinking that this was a good thing for Elena, who had a calm judgment and yet was willing to use any means necessary.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of that unsociable disciple. And that black cat will be working with me, as well.”

Celeshura pointed behind her with her thumb, and Nero snorted and turned his head to the side as if to scoff at her.

“Besides…if you’re talking about Dalton and Miranda, they’re probably already on the move.”

“You know those two…”

“Well, we have a bit of history… please don’t mention me to those guys…”
