Chapter 28 – It was still heroic enough!

“Nee, what happened in the last week?” (Ark)
“… Y, you, don’t you remember?” (Lanta)

Lanta rounded his eyes, looked slightly frightened.

What exactly Layla had done, If it was Lanta he would surely know about it, but think about it again, isn’t it strange for me to ask this question.

“No, o-of course, I remember! I remember it, but I have a tendency to forget sometimes, you know? Because there is such a tendency … So, just in case, I have to listen to a third party….” (Ark)

……Unn, I myself really unable to understand what the hell I was saying.

Sure enough, Lanta looked at me like he was looking at a dangerous person.

“Surely, you’re a little weird these days… You’ve been acting kind of crazy. ……I couldn’t understand you…….You’re kind of scary……” (Lanta)

Layla…….

“W, was that so? Ahahaha…..” (Ark)

I laughed and tried to deceive, but it didn’t seem to work.

Whether it was because of the fear of me or not, Lanta told me what happened while Layla and I were swapped with suspicious eyes.

To put it simply, it seemed that there was a fight between Gaon-san and me (Layla).

“At first, he said something like he was going to train you, but Gaon’s purpose was obviously to hurt you. However, contrary to his expectations, you ended up defeated him……” (Lanta)

And Gaon-san and his friends were cursing me severely, partly because they lost to a first grade.

“After that, you went completely mad…” (Lanta)

I don’t know what to say… Layla was usually like that, but she was really scary when she got angry…
I remembered when she got angry when I was making fun of father before.

“Gaon-san and his friends were beaten black-and-blue… and for some reason, their injuries were healed… and they’re beaten up again….. they cried and begged, but you didn’t let them go…..” (Lanta)

Uwaa…….
Since then, they have been afraid of me and our position completely reversed.

“I, is that so… Unn, that’s just as I remembered … ahahaha…..” (Ark)

I can’t laugh.
She didn’t do anything else, did she?
What the hell is “I acted exactly like Ark!”

“Be, be easy. I will never do that to Lanta.” (Ark)
“Hii” (Lanta)

Eh? I said it with the intention of reassuring him, but it was the opposite……?

Lanta is a good guy.
He got along with me well without worrying that I am in E class.
When people in other classes know that I was E-class, they would blatantly making fun of me.

I didn’t want to be awkward with Lanta.
I made up my mind and decided to tell the truth.
Lanta wouldn’t use it to threaten me as Rikka did.

“Actually… I switched place with my twin sister.” (Ark)
“Eh? Seriously? You have a twin sister?” (Lanta)
“Yeah. She’s Layla.” (Ark)
“Eh, Layla-chan, you say!? No, surely, you two looked alike…” (Lanta)

Somehow, I feel like we had been having these conversations after the entrance ceremony.

“Then, until yesterday you still were her?” (Lanta)
“Something like that..” (Ark)
“…………..No wonder you smelled good.” (Lanta)
“Nn? Did you say something?” (Ark)
“No, nothing!” (Lanta)

Lanta shook his head in panic and then nodded, convincedly said.

“That’s why you were so strong… That’s [Magic Sword Princess]. Not only did enter the magic department as a top student, but could overwhelm the senior students of the martial arts department with a sword.” (Lanta)

Lanta exclaimed in admiration.

“It made sense to me. I’m relieved, You’re not going to be a weird person.”
“So you think that way …”
“But to think Layla-chan was always so close ……… haahaa …”

For some reason, Lanta’s breath became rougher.

“Hey? You’ve always been Layla-chan, right?” (Lanta)
“Well, that’s right…..” (Ark)
“In other words, You were living in the girls’ dormitory, weren’t you…?” (Lanta)
“……U, unn.” (Ark)

I nodded timidly at Lanta, who began to tremble.

To be honest, this reaction was unexpected.
I shuddered at the thought that I might be accused.

“I, I’m so jealous. maaan!” (Lanta)

……After all, he was a man.

“H, how was there!? The inside of the girls’ dormitory!?” (Lanta)
“Nothing much, the structure is the same as the boys’ dormitory.” (Ark)
“That’s not what I mean! Did there smell good?” (Lanta)
“It depending on the location…” (Ark)
“Ooh, really! How lucky you’re! I want go to that flower garden too!” (Lanta)

I was afraid that I would be caught out at any moment though, but…….

“Maybe you went to the girls’ toilet…?” (Lanta)
“Th, that was… it was the only choice I have, you know…” (Ark)
“Seriously! You’re a hero!” (Lanta)

I was treated as a hero for some reason.

“But it’s divided into private rooms…..” (Ark)
“It was still heroic enough!” (Lanta)

I have no idea what the hero’s standards are.

“You, you’re not going to tell me you went to the bathroom, are you……?” (Lanta)
“There’s no way I’ll!” (Ark)
“Right… that’s surely right, yes. If you went to the girls’ bathroom, you’re already a great hero.” (Lanta)

I actually entered there, though…

It was good I denied it.
Or, I was about to be crowned as a great hero.

“Hey” (Lanta)
“Nn?” (Ark)

Lanta asked with a serious look.

“If I dress up as a girl, can I enter the girls’ dormitory?” (Lanta)
“…I don’t think it’ll do.” (Ark)
