225. Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [22]

The poison created by Idol; Official name: chocolate.

I threw all five into my mouth at once.

At that moment,

「Gu…!?」

A terrible “bitterness” ran through my mouth, and my esophagus started burning.

(This is!?)

Unbelievably, all her homemade chocolates were “seasoned” differently.

The poisons, each of which boasted “certain kill” power, induced an unknown reaction in my mouth and rampaged violently.

A whole three minutes later, I managed to survive through a “violence” I had never experienced before.

「Haa haa… T-Thank you very much for the food.」

I slowly put my trembling hands together and thanked her.

「W-Was it delicious?」

Idol tilted her head. Her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

If she asks with such a pure and innocent expression, there is no way I could say「This is poison, isn’t it?」

「…Aa, it’s amazing. A heavenly taste indeed.」

And when I said that trying to sound as honest as possible,

「I-I see. I am glad!」

She smiled happily and made a small guts pose.

(…Yes, it was worth the effort.)

I’ve never seen such a happy look on Idol’s face before.

Mustering up my courage and eating the chocolates seems to be the right choice after all.

After that, we had a little chat and then we parted ways.

Idol looked back frequently and waved goodbye, seeming a bit reluctant to part.

When I waved back, she smiled happily.

Then I saw off Idol until I could not see her figure anymore.

After parting with Idol,

「Fuu, that was really tough…」

I exhaled loudly while rubbing my abdomen.

That’s the first time I’ve had a “death battle” since I ate Ramzac with Ria and Rose around April last year.

(Last time, I managed to survive by handing Ria the amount that I couldn’t finish eating, but…)

This time, it was not possible to do so, and I was forced into an unimaginable hard battle.

And as I was adjusting my breathing, Ria and Rose, immediately ran up to me with an anxious look on their faces.

I guess they must have sneakily seen the current act with Idol.

「Allen, are you okay? Your face is deathly pale.」

「You seem to have received chocolate from Idol, but… Was it really that bad?」

「No, I’m fine. It was kinda “unique”, but it was very good.」

I said with a smile to protect Idol’s honor.

Immediately after that, a chime rang to signal the end of the club activities.

「Well, it’s time to go back home.」

To put an end to this topic, I said that and went to pick up my luggage in the corner of the schoolyard.

「…Hmm, what is this?」

There was a letter on my bag that read『To Allen-kun』.

(Letter to me… I wonder who’s it from?)

Thinking about that, I quickly looked through the contents of the letter.

『To Allen-kun.

I’m waiting on the rooftop.

I would be happy if you would come alone.』

It was a short letter of only two lines.

The sender’s name wasn’t written anywhere, but this paper and cute girlish writing is familiar.

(It’s from the president, isn’t it…?)

Just the other day, she went to the Holy Ronelia Empire alone, and left a note in the student council room.

The exact same type of paper was used, and the writing written in the letter was exactly the same.

The anonymous sender is most certainly her.

And then,

「Allen, what is it?」

「Is it a letter…?」

After they finished packing their bags, Ria and Rose asked me.

「Aa, it doesn’t have the sender’s name, but… It’s most likely from the president.」

The moment I muttered so without a care,

「「……」」

For some reason, their faces were dyed with tension.

「A-Allen… How do I say this… If you don’t mind, could you tell me what’s written on it?」

「I-I would like to know too…」

Ria and Rose gulped and said with a quivering voice.

「Nothing important is written really. “I want you to come to the roof by yourself” is all.」

And as I told the contents of the letter indifferently,

「”Rooftop” and “alone”!?」

「I-I see… So they’ve decided to settle the match.」

They whispered so with a grim face, and fell silent.

「……」

In the corner of the schoolyard, which has become dim, an indescribable heavy air began to flow.

A few minutes passed as we kept silent, and my hands were getting colder little by little. Unable to endure the silence, I spoke up.

「E-Err… If I keep the president waiting for too long, it will become troublesome. So I’ll go to the rooftop for a moment, okay?」

「Ye-Yeah… okay.」

「We’ll wait here.」

Ria and Rose, with gloomy looks, just nodded.

「I’ll be back as soon as I’m done.」

Then, I left the two in the schoolyard and turned to the rooftop of the main academy building.
