Chapter 95.1

“That’s all for today’s class.” (Diego)

Eleonor didn’t appear all day. I’m sure something’s wrong.

When Eleonor was in the temple she said she couldn’t move by her own will. If she’s in the same condition as that time then she might not be able to come meet me.

Should I go meet her?

“Um, Arnos-sama. Did anyone talk to you about going to the festival?” (Misa)

“Fumu. I’ve got a bit of business to take care of but you should go and enjoy it.” (Arnos)

“I see.” (Misa)

“I’ve going to give it a miss today as well. I’m pretty tired.” (Ray)

“Were you up late?” (Misa)

“I not sleeping well due to the pillow being different.” (Ray)

“I see…….” (Misa)

Misa looks a bit disappointed so Ray goes over to her and whispers

“Do you want to join me taking a nap?” (Ray)

“…..Eh, errm…..” (Misa)

I see. You want to be alone with Misa.

“Don’t want to?” (Ray)

“N..no. I mean yes I’ll….come with you.” (Misa)

The girls in the fan union started whispering about them.

“……Ray-kun is sleepy…….”

“Yeah. Don’t Ray-kun and Arnos-sama share the same room……?”

“Waiit, waiiit! What are you thinking about!?”

“Nothing. I’m not thinking about any special contact or anything….”

“Don’t say special contact!”

“…..Then, theeeen, in other words…..now…..Misa is….”

“Going to indirectly share a bed!?!?”

Leaving them to their talk I leave the auditorium.

Using my demon eyes I try to locate Eleonors magic power but I can’t find it anywhere.

Are you erasing your magic power? Misha couldn’t find Eleonor either when she was looking.

What I can find and follow though is Diegos magic power.

If the hero academy has done something to her then there’s no way the head of the school doesn’t know about it.

I make myself invisible with <Rainel>, hide my magic power with <Najira> and follow Diego.

He leaves at a quick pace and heads to lake Seimei.

Using <Fres> Diego quickly moves through the empty lake and heads to a formerly underwater cave. I thought he would have headed to the temple.

We proceed through the dim cave and as we approach the back a small spring gushing out holy water appears.

Using <Coco> Diego jumps into the spring.

Following closely behind I find its both deep and very large. Its outside state is different from the inside.

Using <Fres> again Diego swims like a fish through the water and dives towards the bottom.

Just as I was wondering how deep it was the bottom finally shows up and I see a huge door locked with <Digit>.

Diego opens the door and heads inside but I wait.

Even with my magic and figure hidden he’ll notice someone opening the door so I wait for him to leave.

“Open.” (Arnos)

After waiting a few minutes I open the door to find a stone building inside.

This side of the door is dry due to magic holding the water back behind the door.

What on earth is he doing here?

As I walk down the passage I find a collapsed wall and its new. Within a few days I’d say.

The further in the building I go the more internal destruction I find. Floors, ceilings and walls are crushed, cut or just fallen into holes.

Fumu. It’s like there was a battle here recently.

“Aren’t there any clues yet!”

An angry voice calls out and its Diego.

It’s coming from behind a nearby door.

I stand behind it and listen carefully.

“…….I know he’s a masked man….”

“I received that report this morning! I’m telling you to give me something new!” (Diego)

“I’m very sorry.”

“Is this not the work of the demon king academy?” (Diego)

“…..I couldn’t detect the thief’s magic power. I can’t even tell if it was a mazoku…”

A masked man whose magic power you cant sense huh?

That’s a familiar story.

“Besides, our plan isn’t known to the demon king academy so it’s unlikely they attacked this facility. It’s probably the work of the Virhia Empire to the west.”

“There’s no reason for those guys to do this! We’ve been building up friendly relations with them for more than a 1000 years!” (Diego)

“….As may be but it would be foolish to completely trust all of Azeshion. Is there a spy in the academy? They might have heard the rumours of the holy mother.”

The room falls silent. Is Diego keeping quiet?
