S13 Saint and Sword Empreror

The entrance ceremony ended without trouble.
After that, each students breakup, and most of the students either return to their dormitory where they will live or inspect the school.
This academy uses the system where all students live in dormitories.
I'm not an exception as well, and it's necessary to live in the dormitory when I attend this academy.
A student can't go outside of the academy unless something great happens or a long term holiday.

「What shall we do after this?」

Katia talks in her ojou-sama mode.
As for us, the preparations for the dormitory are already made.
If possible, I want to see the school grounds.

「Because Sensei wants to meet someone, should we go together?」
「Someone you want to meet?」
「Haii. The future Saint and Sword Emperor. Sensei thinks that there's no loss even if you meet them」

Saint and Sword Emperor.
Speaking of Saint, it's the symbolic existence of the neighboring country, Saint Aleius. 
Also called as the Hero's pair, and the Saint appointed from the country for generations is obligated to act with the Hero.
Julius nii-sama should be accompanied by the present Saint.

And, the Sword Emperor is the emperor of the Kasanagara continent's largest Human race nation, Rengzant Empire. 
Because of the Rengzant Empire is close to the territory of the Demon race, it's a country where battle doesn't stop.
For a person to become the emperor of the country, strength is the first requirement.
From that, the emperor for generations are said to be called similar as the first generation emperor which is Sword Emperor.

Although the Saint is said to be elected from the candidates who have the qualities, the Sword Emperor is completely by lineage.
In other words, the present Sword Emperor's son has enroll in this academy.

「Ah, it's the crown prince of the Rengzant Empire. I heard it from the rumors. If I'm not mistaken, he is entering this academy this year in the same way as us. I heard that he's a sword genius that has close resemblance of the first generation」

Eh, Katia knows it?
I don't know such information, you know?

「Shun, you must learn the ways of the world a little more」

Katia says it with an amazed face while I wonder did she guess anything with my face.
Gu, I can't object her.

「But, Sensei. The reason why Sensei wants to meet them purposely, is it 'that'?」
「It's 'that'」
「Then, we must surely meet them」

For some reasons, the talk advances among the two.
Sue and I can't follow the talk, and we can only look at the exchange.

「Now Shun, let's go, what's with that face?」
「No, I just can't follow the talk...」
「Apart from Sue, why you....」

Katia and Sensei make a disappointed face at the same time.
Th-There no need to make such a face.

「Ah, it seems that we don't have to go」

I was attracted by Sensei's words and if I see there, a boy and a girl are approaching here.
The boy has a tough look with brown hair that's close to black and has the same color on his pupil.
The girl has blue eyes and wavy blond hair. There's a mysterious loveliness somewhere.

「Yo. That tiny elf is Oka-chan?」
「Natsume-kun. That's impolite towards Sensei. It's been a long time, Sensei」

The boy and the girl speaks in Japanese.
And, I finally understand the content of the conversation between Sensei and Katia.
These two person are also the same as us who reincarnated.

「Long time no see. Sensei is glad that Natsume-kun and Hasebe-san are in good health」

In Sensei's words, their former name is known.
The boy's former name is Natsume Kengo. He is the man who was the center of the boys in the class.
However, I didn't like this Natsume so much.
His reflexes are good, and physical strength is strong.
Although he didn't actually use violence, he shows his power to make people follow him.
He has such a strong pressure character.
Therefore, there are those who follow Natsume and those who oppose him in the class.
I was a man from the opposing side.
Well, although I say that I opposed him, I only did nothing but not getting near him.

「Haha! Although Oka-chan was originally small, she shrank all the more! How funny!」
「Natsume-kun!」

The one who rebuke Natsume was the former next seat, Hasebe Yuika.
Hasebe was unlike Natsume. She was a girl who doesn't have anything good and bad.
Although she should have the easy to set adrift character, when saying that she has something in her that makes her into a Saint candidate, I can't think of it.

「It can't be helped that elves are small. Besides, Natsume-kun is not a great difference now」
「I will grow up even more from now on, so it's okay. And, the one over there is the prince of this country, right? Who's inside?」

Natsume's glance turn towards me.
Those eyes are like staring at a prey, there's a ferocious light dwelling in it.
The dazzling light that seems to be going to attack me soon.
Although this guy was certainly a nasty guy in the previous life, was he a guy who had such dangerous eyes?

「Yamada Shunsuke」
「Ooshima Kanata. Long time no see」

The me who answers briefly, and Katia who step forward unnaturally to appeal herself.

「Eh? Ooshima-kun?」
「That's right. Me, Ooshima. Surprised, aren't you? I became a woman after getting reborn」

Hasebe gets into Katia's introduction.
The talk rises there, and Natsume's glance was averted from me.
Thank you, Katia.
At any rate, I must be cautious of Natsume who's current name is Yuugo Van Rengzand.

    1. "Strength is the one(or Only) requirement" might also be viable, to highlight the tough and ruthless situation in their kingdom

  4. How old are they? It feels like this side story is progressing weeks, months maybe even years at a time while our dear spider-chan is progressing in hours and days...

    1. I feel the same, the author needs to clarify time a lot better.

    2. I was thinking that as well, what if Kumoko is the lord of the labyrinth by now and a level 10,000 Fire Jorogumo of poison and death. "Kumoko the Gluttonous." having eaten her own mother, such a title became known throughout the Labyrinth and the demon world.

      Yup. What a thought.

  5. Huh, what's with the confrontational attitude. I was hoping not ALL the main seats of humanity were taken by the students, having a handful strong ones which are geniuses in their own rights :(

    2. Exactly. It leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
      This side story started pretty good but it's not so fun anymore because of all the useless confrontations where every second classmate is showing killing intent.

  6. >battle doesn't stops
    battle doesn't stop

    >Sensei wants to me them
    me → meet

    >His reflexes is good
    is → are

    >That eyes is
    Either "Those eyes are" or "That eye is"

    >there's a ferocious light dwell in it
    dwell → dwelling

    Thank you for translating!

  8. I only just realized this... but Katia was a boy in the former life??
    I had my suspicions but wasn't sure because of the way it was said earlier.

    1. Kanata is a male Japanese name. One tip is japanese names ending in "ko" is usually female. Spoiler i believe Katia was the only guy that was reborn as a girl, and their reincarnation was into lives they have good affinity with, ie. Kumoko's shut-in lifestyle matches that of her (first iteration of comfy) spider life; being the first prince of a kingdom in constant conflict suits Kengo's Alpha butting heads motto.

  9. Ugh I hope they become allies at some point...its not the time to be fighting now.
    I don't like how Shun can't fallow along? Wow that guy gotta get it together...
    What bugs me is the sister watching all that. Is that safe?

    2. Its a late reply but they are speaking Japanese so the sister is just like what the heck are they saying, they can probably use the excuse of the unreadable appraisal skill

      Delete
    3. Its part of the Human condition to in-fight, in such turmoils time it is imperative they determine who is Alpha and they must do so quick and without a shadow of a doubt, otherwise there will be resentment which seeds the path to self destruction.
