The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

419. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [189]

Three days later.

Ria and the others were safely discharged without incident.

After everyone returned to their dormitories, I, Ria, the president, Lilim-senpai, Ferris-senpai gathered in a room at Thousand Blade Academy without Rose.

「Rose is certainly putting on a brave face for us…」I muttered.

Everyone nodded silently.

After returning to Ringuard, Rose did not cry at all.

She should be heartbroken after losing her beloved grandfather.

She was doing her best not to worry us.

「Rose is the type to bottle up her feelings… How can we help her?」Ria said, with a troubled expression on her face.

「How do we cheer up Rose-san without wasting her consideration for us, huh…」

The president thought out loud with a serious expression.

「Hmm… What about we just directly cheer her up?」

Lilim-senpai stated a plan that sounded very much like her.

「That’s a little too drastic. It only works for single-minded people like you, Lilim.」

She was immediately rejected by Ferris-senpai.

As a result of mixed discussions with everyone, we decided to “act as usual”.

We should act as usual as much as possible so as not to waste Rose’s concern.

However, if Rose seems to be constantly worried or troubled, then we will try to talk to her about it indirectly. That was what we decided for the time being.

After that, another idea came up. We wanted to build Bacchus-san’s grave.

(His body disappeared as glowing particles of light, though…)

I wanted to leave a proof that the strongest swordsman in the world lived in this world.

And above all, I wanted to thank him for saving our lives.

However, I cannot simply build a grave without permission.

In this case, it is necessary to respect Rose’s wish the most.

(The question is how to talk to her regarding this…)

When I was thinking about that,

「If we want to know Rose-san’s feelings, we should be quick about it.」

「Yes, I think so too.」

The president and Ria expressed the same opinion.

「A field survey by the Holy Knights Association would be conducted soon in Cherin, where four of the world’s most prominent swordsmen – Allen-kun, Bacchus-san, former Emperor’s Four Knights Deal, a Seven Holy Sword Von – crossed swords. That battlefield, which was devastated by spiritual power equaling war between small countries, will not be overlooked by the association which aims for permanent world peace. At that time, some kind of immigration restrictions will certainly be imposed.」the president said.

「Since the traitor, Von, was present there, the association will surely rush to investigate the remnants of the spiritual power. As far as the uninhabited island that became the battlefield is concerned, it may be off limits for a few years.」Ria said.

「I see… then it would be better if we hurried.」

It wouldn’t be a problem if it was a short-term immigration restriction, but a few years would be a problem.

Due to these circumstances, we all headed to Rose’s dormitory.
