I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

81.The Saint and Shovel Knight (2)

“Can’t we move faster?”

“Wheelchairs are not for running.”

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to make it safe to run in case of an emergency, but there was a high probability that the wheelchair would be useless in such a situation in the first place. It would be better to use magic to create a wheelchair with legs and make it run.

…It’s a bit bizarre when I think about it. When a wheelchair has legs instead of wheels to move around, it looks like something out of a horror game.

“It’s frustrating…”

“…I’ll speed up just a little more.”

“Yes!”

I lengthened my stride a little longer. The sound of the wheelchair wheels turning became clearer and bothered my eardrums. It was the sound made by the iron bar connecting the two wheels being scraped by the ring.

If possible, it would be better to turn down the sound further. The fact that the noise is loud is likely to be a nuisance to others and is a factor that interferes with covert maneuvers in times of emergency. No, is the idea of secretly maneuvering in a wheelchair the problem in the first place?

“John? Why aren’t you moving?”

“I was thinking about how to improve the wheelchair for a while.”

“Can’t you think about it as you go?”

Have I been standing for a long time? I looked at the top of Milia’s head and moved her feet again. Now that I’ve walked about a third of the way around Yeomyeonggwan, I still have to go twice as far as I did so far. I moved around diligently and looked around.

“Hmm~hmm~hmm~”

“Is it fun?”

“Huh! “This makes me feel like a princess!”

“…It’s for patients only.”

Maybe it’s because we live in a world without wheelchairs, but Milia’s answer was a bit refreshing. If you think about it, it feels like a rickshaw for one person. In fact, the first wheelchair was similar to a rickshaw-

Rattling.

“Wow!”

“Milia! Are you okay?”

I approached Milia, who had collapsed after struggling in her wheelchair stuck on a rock. In her dreams, Milia’s neck was broken to a frightening degree.

Of course, there were no injuries.

“John! “Get me up!”

“Okay, wait…”

It was then. At the ear-piercing scream, I turned my head and looked at the source of the sound.

“…Uh…”

“…You know, are we caught?”

Milia, who quickly restored her neck to its original state, and I, who covered her with her body, looked at each other and exchanged embarrassed looks.

“Uh, what should I do?”

“I thought it was an illusion of the eye – I collapsed.”

Should I like this or not? I sighed as I looked at the purple head lying down in the distance.

——————

“Miss Millia!”

“Yes? Are you calling me?”

“Swallow all the cookies before speaking. And what if you eat all the cookies for the guests?”

I blew honey on the top of Milia’s head and looked at Elisa who got up from the bed. Elisa flinched when she saw me, but she didn’t throw a fit like before. This alone is a huge step forward. For me, who has to become close to Elisha.

…But how should we become friends?

To be honest, I don’t know how to become friends with women.

“Uh, well… Why am I here…”

“I brought you in because you suddenly collapsed. Do you have any chronic illness?”

“Well, it’s not like that… But, obviously, Ms. Millia… “

“Yes? Me? Why?”

Elisha’s head automatically turned to Millia. Elisa’s expression was one of confusion itself. I knelt down in front of Elisa, who was trying to start the game again, and got to eye level. Watery eyes looked frantically at me and Milia in turns.

I spoke to her in the softest voice possible to encourage her.

“You can speak slowly.”

“I-I’m sure he’s lying down with his neck broken…” ” ” “Miss Millia… “

“I guess I’m mistaken. “Milia fell today, but she didn’t break her neck.”

“I’m fine!”

Milia spread her arms wide and appealed that she was fine. Did those efforts work? Elisa’s expression returned to normal. She looked like she was going to cry if I touched her, so it was hard to tell whether I should consider this a good thing…

“Well, I think I saw it wrong…”

I’m glad I was fooled. If I had continued to doubt, I would have been in trouble. I sighed in relief without changing my expression as much as possible. I immediately changed the subject to prevent Elisha from becoming more suspicious.

“Elisa, so what’s happening at Yeomyeonggwan?”

“Uh, that’s… “

Elisha explained at length why she had come. Considering Elisa’s words her her her, which stuttered like a broken machine, it seemed like she had come to check on Karina’s condition her her her.

…But why did Elisa come and not Professor Lennon?

When I asked Elisha, he hesitated and then answered.

“Well, the professor said that he had a cold and that it would be enough for me to go and get a check-up on my own…”

Is it a cold?

Well, it didn’t look that healthy in the lab. There were all kinds of cursed items lying around.

“I get it. “I’ll go to Karina as soon as you feel better.”

“Well, I think we can go right now…”

If that’s you. I handed Milia, who was sitting with her mouth covered in cookie crumbs, her handkerchief and got up from the floor.

“Let’s go!”

Millia and I left the room first, Elisa followed behind, and we walked towards Karina’s room in a strange manner. Normally, they would have stood side by side, but given Elisa’s personality her her her, it was inevitable that her spirit her would be broken by her her pink-pink power her her her her.

“John, are you going to take Elisa and give her a wheelchair again?”

“No. First of all, since I found something to fix, I should fix it first.”

The wheelchair, or rather the wheelchair that will be called the Patrasche prototype from now on, took a half-turn and found quite a few things to fix.

First of all, the Patrasche itself tended to shake a lot whenever it moved, and the scraping sound was also loud when the wheels rolled. Also, there is no safety device, so if someone gets caught on a rock like before, the person sitting may be thrown forward…Is there anything else?

The last one is a bit ambiguous.

I moved in my wheelchair at a jogging pace. Still, we need to reinforce it first… Can we at least make seat belts?

“…I guess that’s just the problem.”

“Huh?”

“It is nothing. “I’m just talking to myself.”

After a bit of hesitation, I reached the room where Karina was resting. By the door, Lennie was leaning against the wall, yawning. When Lennie spotted us, she smiled sheepishly and said,

“Howdy. What brought you here? Behind you… Elisa?”

“They said they came to check on Karina’s physical condition.”

“What about the professor?”

“It looks like you have a cold.”

“Oh yeah? Go in.”

Leni kindly held the doorknob and opened the door. As I was about to enter the room, I leaned against the door under Lennie’s stinging gaze.

“Isn’t John going in?”

“I will be watching from here.”

I can’t go in because Karina might have to take off or take off her clothes during the inspection. I was left alone in the hallway, leaning against the wall like Lennie had done.

…I’m bored.

I turned my head back and forth and looked down the hallway. As expected of a residence used by saints for generations, Yeomyeonggwan was far from extravagant. However, this does not mean that the furniture or items provided are cheap. I would say that these are items that boast a level of quality that even I, who have manufactured all kinds of items, am impressed by.

This place was full of items that would be considered luxury goods if put out there. As your insight rises to the next level, you can see the value in that antiquity more clearly.

How much money did you spend? Of course, there were some things that were a bit worn out, but wouldn’t this have cost a lot more money than a noble house that was just fancy on the outside? I wanted to open just a few pieces and check the structure and material.

I have made all kinds of furniture and buildings for 10 years, but I cannot make them as well as craftsmen who devote themselves to one field for decades. Just absorbing the skills of such craftsmen is quite tempting.

…If I come across any scrap furniture later, I’ll take it and dismantle it.

As I was munching on the furniture, I heard the door open. Lennie, who appeared, looked at me and said.

“Karina said she had something to say, so come in.”

I followed Lennie into the room.

Karina’s room, as always, had a cozy atmosphere. Is it because of the scent of an unknown flower, or because the owner of the room is Karina? There were only two oddities in the otherwise unremarkable room, so it had to be one of the two.

“Karina. How is her her body her her her?”

“They say there’s no problem. Even the curse is silent…”

Karina smiled softly and stroked the head of her daughter, Milia, who was resting on her lap. She was a puppy that quietly accepted her touch. Elisha was looking at Milia with a strangely envious look.

…What on earth is this?

“Nothing happened. Thanks goodness. Karina. “I heard you called me…”

“I heard you make amazing things. “Can I… Watch it being made?”

Pink and golden eyes meet mine. Beautiful. Beautiful eyes that look like stars are embedded in them. I looked intently into her eyes, and then she nodded.

“Do you want to go right away?”
