A Villainous Aristocrat’s Pursuit of Peace ~ Reincarnated as the Most Talented Mage in History, I’ll Achieve Supremacy in order to live a peaceful life with My Maid~

Chapter 40



“Alright, from now on, students, please pass through the transfer gate slowly. Once you go through, you’ll be in the Spirit Forest. Some teachers are over there just in case… but we don’t know what might happen, so be cautious as you proceed.”

With these words from the military woman, the students began to enter the gate with heightened awareness.

To be honest, I could have created my own transfer gate and gone through it, but since I was being allowed to pass for free, I decided to save my magical power and make the most of this opportunity. After all, I had no idea what awaited us beyond this point.

“Now then… how should I fill the role of the protagonist…”

Little did I know that I wouldn’t need to worry about that anytime soon.

At this moment, I was absolutely astonished.

It wasn’t because the monsters were stronger or weaker than I had anticipated, and it had nothing to do with the storyline.

No, it was…

“Today, she will be joining us. Meet Mea. She was born in the Spirit Forest and knows it quite well. What’s more, she’s formidable, even stronger than me, so make sure not to do anything reckless.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you all. I’m Mea. I will be your guide and guardian for this journey. Please feel free to rely on me.”

For some reason, Mea was present in this place, and she seemed to hold a role similar to that of a substitute teacher.

I was so taken aback that I couldn’t close my gaping mouth, and I stared in awe at Mea. Perhaps she noticed me, as she raised her hand and waved, her appearance exuding a remarkable beauty. So much so that it made every other woman in this world appear inferior in comparison.

Furthermore, Mea was currently not wearing a maid outfit but rather a practical combat attire that allowed for ease of movement. Since Mea’s combat style was speed-focused, her outfit exposed much more than a maid outfit.

As proof of this, the male students couldn’t take their eyes off Mea.

“…”

Hey, you guys, stop staring at Mea.

If you keep looking for even one more second, I’ll kill you.

As I was about to manipulate my magic to physically harm everyone after one second had passed,

“Stop, Jin. There’s no use in bothering with them since they can’t do anything to Mea-san anyway,” I was grabbed by the arm and stopped by Rud.

Cynthia seemed to have sensed the movement of my magic, but she didn’t seem inclined to intervene.

“Rud… What would you do if your fiancée were stared at with such impolite gazes by many men?”

“I’d crush their eyeballs immediately.”

Rud muttered something dangerous with a serious expression.

“That’s what I mean.”

However, I would do the same… in fact, I was in the process of doing it.

As I was about to activate magic again and point my hand towards all the male students—

“You can’t go any further, Jin-sama.”

“Mea!?”

I let out a startled cry when Mea somehow appeared next to me and said that.

My heart raced when she suddenly appeared next to me…. I was not prepared for that.

This is bad, bad, bad! She’s wearing that outfit, and she’s so close… too close! My heart is racing aaaaaaaaaa!!

“Me-Mea… you’re, um, a little,too c-close…”

“Huh? …Ah… I-I’m so sorry!”

As I pointed it out with my face turning bright red, Mea briefly showed a puzzled expression before she realized what I meant. She blushed slightly and stepped back a bit.

“…”

To break the awkward atmosphere that hung between us, I cleared my throat and decided to ask the question I had in mind.

“So… why are you here, Mea?”

Honestly, I had thought that today’s events were decided on the spur of the moment and didn’t expect her to come, let alone not know about it.

“There are two reasons,” she replied.

“Two reasons?”

“Yes. The first reason is that… I was worried about Jin-sama…”

———Huh!?

While her expression remained mostly unchanged, her flushed cheeks were alluring and seductive. Since she was slightly shorter than me now, she was slightly tilting her head upwards, her gave accurately hit my heart, it almost felt like it would explode. (Just jin being jin)

I staggered, pressing my hand to my chest, moved by Mea’s sweet words.

Geez, isn’t there too much happening suddenly…? My composure is hanging by a thread already.

But I’m incredibly happy. I feel like dancing with joy right here, right now.

“So, um, what’s the second reason…?”

 

I asked while slightly out of breath.

In response, Mea’s unexpected words came out of her mouth.

“…I received a request from the school principal, and I needed the money.”

“…Huh?”

I let out my second bewildered exclamation of the day.

But I guess it can’t be helped.

After all, not long ago, I extorted money from my parents. As a result, I should have had enough money to live comfortably for three years…

“…Jin-sama, don’t you remember? During our recent shopping trip, you said to Rud-sama and the others, ‘It’s an early wedding gift!’ and bought a lot of expensive furniture.”

“Ah, well…”

I’m sorry; I kind of forgot about it.

Come to think of it, I was so happy to receive the money that I went loose on shopping.

…So, Mea coming here is my fault…?

As I followed that line of thought, I closed my eyes once and then slowly opened them.

“…All the monsters are mine…!”

For this lesson, I had decided to seriously hunt monsters.
