I Only Need To Attend The Classroom Of The Sage To Level Up! Chapter 9

…

TN: So, I decided to pick up a novel again. I wanted to translate this one since it has been over a year that Penguin Overlord Translation have updated this. Anyhow, feel free to comment any suggestions and mistakes. Peace.

I kept defeating Pillings together with Charlotte and Claire.

I had to follow-up Claire with my Ninja skills, but Charlotte seems to be used to fighting, so I left her as she was.

By the way, Charlotte and I both use long swords, though Claire’s is a simple one while Charlotte’s was a highly decorated one.

Her credibility as a princess rose up a bit.

「Charlotte……are you okay?」

Claire suddenly began to say such things after hitting down about 10 Pillings.

Now that I look at it, Charlotte’s complexion seem to be pale. Somehow she feels sick.

「It’s all right, this much is nothing.」

Nope, you’re not okay at all. I can’t feel the heat she had when we first met[1].

「What’s wrong all of a sudden?」

「Sorry, senpai. I got a bit tired.」

「Tired?」

「I’ve been here since yesterday, except when I went to the Wise Man’s place.」

「All the time?」

「Yes.」

Doesn’t she sleep? Has it always been like this? Was that the reason why she had such a high level?

「Sorry, can I take a moment to rest?」

Charlotte asks me with half-shut eyes.

I can’t continue seeing such an appearance.

「It’s okay to rest, rather, isn’t it better to go back to the tent?」

「No, I’ll be fine here……」

After saying such, Charlotte collapsed to the ground.

Or rather, she lied down. She fell down like a broken doll, but I smoothly caught her and laid her down, and used my arms as a pillow.

Perhaps I’m what you could call, a smooth guy[2]?

「Something like this, are you used to it?」

「It seems so.」

「How child-like. Frolicking for a bit, then fall asleep all of a sudden.」

「It certainly is childish. But what should I do? I can not leave it as it is.」

「Should we accompany her to the tent?」

Claire asked, and I agreed.

Though the person herself said it’s alright, I’m hesitant just leaving her here.

I extended my hand, gave her a piggyback ride, and took her outside.

「Uo!」

Charlotte’s eyes opened suddenly. Widely opened, she looked at my direction.

「Good morning! Senpai!」

「Yes?」

「I was able to sleep soundly thanks to you. Now I’m full of energy!」

「Slept soundly……didn’t you sleep for only a moment?」

Claire was surprised. Makes sense, as only 3 minutes had pa.s.sed.

There’s a limit to being a short sleeper.

「Are you sure you’re okay?」

「Yes! I’m alright!」

Charlotte made a victory pose, full of vigor.

Even without the pose, she is completely different than before. Her heat is clearly back[3].

Did you really recover? In that three minute sleep?

「Was that a villager’s skill?」

「No, this is like my special const.i.tution. A villager’s skills is really just being a villager.」

「A villager? For example?」

「Villager Level 1 makes it easy to know the name of the village no matter where you go. If a person travelling with me asks, 『Where are we?』, even if do not know, my mouth will just answer it.」

「On it’s own?」

「Yes. Here is village of such and such.」

……Is that so, a villager indeed.

「There are many other things, but now I’m aiming for Level 10. When you reach Level 10, it seems that even rumors will be understood in that village. Things that you’re embarra.s.sed with, it seems that you can even secrets strangers can’t talk about.」

「Oi oi, the villagers are actually pretty powerful, aren’t they?」

I was thinking it was shabby because of the name, but it does not seem to be so.

「But it’s not useful at all in caves or outdoors. Because it’s a villager!」

Charlotte emphasizes. Though the contents may not be amusing, she clenches her fist to brag[4].

Definitely fired up.

Anyway, since Charlotte recovered, we resumed hunting the Pillings.

Inside a narrow cave, together with my companions.

Since I can’t use Dragon’s Breath (ドラゴンの息) System Skill can’t be used, I was devoted to supporting with my Ninja Skills.

「Senpai, is that leaf delicious?」

「Tasty! Because I’m only eating this because of my occupation Hairy Caterpillar!」

「Is that so? Can I have one……*pe* *pe*[5], it has a terribly unpleasant taste unlike what you said senpai!」

「……I did not say it had an unpleasant taste.」

Somewhat, it was unexpectedly fun.

I enjoyed watching them talk while supporting them.

I was glad to be relied upon.

「Thank you, senpai! Thanks to senpai, it was three times easier than usual!」

「Me, too. I might not have been able to do anything if Callus-kun wasn’t there.」

I was flattered and got conceited.

Therefore, I let my guard down.

Then all of a sudden, Pillings appeared.

There are four of them, too. It was the most that had gathered so far.

「Kyaa!」

Claire is suddenly knocked off her feet, and was flung back against the wall.

Then, the four of them attacked Charlotte at once.

I took out a shuriken for protection and threw it.

But the numbers were too many, the damage was dispersed and it was not enough to knock them down.

Charlotte is having a hard fight. She stopped an incoming blow with her sword, but the head, the arm, and the foot were hit simultaneously.

She drew back and knelt on the ground.

I must help her.

Breathing in ー I roared!

I used the Dragon’s Roar (龍の咆哮).

The roar rumbles the ground and stops the movement of the hairb.a.l.l.s.

「Charlotte, can you move?」

「Yes!」

「Then get away immediately!」

「Understood!」

Charlotte obediently withdrew as she was told.

I swept away the the hairb.a.l.l.s who were still standing upright on the spot with Flame Breath (火炎の息).

「Fuu……」

「Thank you, Callus-kun.」

「That’s senpai for you! He defeated four in an instant!」

「That’s good. More importantly, are you both okay?」

「Yes, I was only struck for a moment.」

「I’m okay, too! See ー aitatata[6].」

Charlotte was going to do a guts pose, but the part that was. .h.i.t earlier still hurt.

「Don’t overdo it. That’s it for today.」

「It’s okay! If I just sleep this, it’ll be cured.」

「Hai?」

「I’ll be sleeping for a while!」

Charlotte says so, and her arm, which was also used as a pillow, was laid to the ground to recover, then fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Claire began to take out leaves and munch on it for recovery.

Such things are happening around me.

……well, it should be fine.

Author’s Note:
