Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[Eon's POV: ]

"So, who's going to get the dishes today?"

Today, the classes were resuming, finally.

"It's Med's turn and Quin said she will help her last time so the two of them are up this time-."

"No! Remember the last time we ate in the night? We got the dishes!"

"That doesn't count!"

"You're only saying that because it's your turn, Tia! I know what you're doing!"

We were in the garden, walking towards our classes as a group.

And, everyone else was watching us since the group around us was a little too big this time.

"You expect a little creature like me to get dishes for these many people?! How the hell am I supposed to do that?!"

We have group eatings and there is this little rule among everyone that one or two of the people from the group will prepare new dishwears for every member of that gathering and when everyone is done eating, they also have to wash those dishes.

'It wasn't needed, but it was the little tradition we had among us.'

Everyone had their chance at this, especially the new people that joins us occasionally.

They have this little lottery system to choose who would be the lucky one to have the honor to prepare and wash dishes for the individuals that join us in the lunch programs.

'It's pretty cute but in times like these, this system becomes a little troublesome.'

There were twenty one people walking alongside us in total, and some of them were even people that none of us had ever talked with personally.

Many of these people wanted some work related talks with a few of them, and the others who were part of our little group, as well as people acquainted with us that the others unrelated people wanted to talk with were all gathered around us thanks to our new popularity.

"Miss Mia, would it be possible for you to create a (Blaze waterfall) for our family. My father has promised to compensate you appropriately!"

"Miss Grace! Miss Grace! Please! Just a few moments! My mother won't waste your time, please!"

"Mister Nox, please reconsider joining the Darkness Foundation. We could help you nurture your talents better than anyone else!"

"Mister Nova! Mister Nova! About the CADe theory!"

"Oy, what did I say about not touching anyone? Do you want to walk with your feets intact or not?"

"Ah! Apologies Lady Carla!"

There were a lot of them, all flying around us like flies.

'They wanted something from us. A few moments of our time being the prime thing they were asking for.'

They were acting on their family's behalf, at least most of them here were doing that.

Some of the other ones, on the other hand, were either from the different Clubs of the academy or were somehow related to outside forces separate from the nobility and the higher circles.

'They were here for something we had, knowledge, talent, resources, something that only some of us possessed.'

Everyone knew what the individuals that took part in the annual alchemy competition were capable of.

They knew how there were people that had special skills that even the grandmasters of this world recognised.

They knew how there were special things about us, especially those who had won the annual competition along with Miss Mia.

'They now had rights to trade within the Principality however they wished, and they also had special things that they could ask from the Lord of the Lakmer as their winning price.'

Though the range of the things that they could ask for were different according to their ranks, they weren't necessarily limited.

'And the reward discussions were skipped at the time of ceremony because of all the things going on.'

They were to ask for their prices after the funeral and the process of opening the new monument's opening was completed, which was coming soon.

There were a number of things that they could ask for, but they were going to be completely up to the winning individuals.

'So that was that.'

But the winners weren't the only ones that were surrounded around us.

Even the ones that had recently become influential in the academy were also growing in popularity.

'Especially individuals like Rein's Nox.'

Those who were active in the extracurricular activities and the inner events within the academy held by the clubs and the student bodies of the houses, individuals like Nox and the triplets in my house, were becoming popular ever since the Roxanna empire's special, world level sports festival was postponeded.

'The houses didn't really have anything to do right now, so, the clubs and the inner academic communities were expending their influence by recruiting or gathering important individuals.'

It wasn't something outside the academy rules, but at the end of the day, aside from the eight houses, nothing really mattered when it came to the extra activities.

'These houses, clubs, communities were all things that students did among themselves and had no academic purpose.'

It was for fun and their own groups on the outside, but that shit was too political and toxic for us house captains so we avoided it and told those around us to avoid it if possible as well.

There was no need to get ourselves involved in the political drama of this world and various things that weren't practically necessary for this good school life of ours.

"Ahem. Everyone. We have almost reached the classes so, do you all mind leaving them now or are you going to continue this in the classroom as well?"

Rein looked at them with an upset, angry look and grabbed Nox away from them.

"The teachers aren't going to be too happy if this continues in the classes as well, you know?"

Then captain Alpha supported her and gently went on to explain the rest of them how what they were doing was a little inappropriate.

"Hump. What would a commoner-."

"Did you say something to him, mister?" Luna gave him an angry look the moment one of the boys said that, and it attracted everyone's attention around us…

'Haaa…'

Captain Alpha was considered a commoner in the eyes of the students since he had no actual background or known history of himself.

It was just known that he is a high ranking adventurer, and that was it.

He didn't really have any family background or anything connecting his existence to the previous records.

'He was the captain of the house with the most number of noble students in it, so many even considered him a hidden child of some high ranking noble or royal family, but there was no proof of that either.'

So, instead of considering him some high position person, most nobles that weren't part of True Dragons looked down on him when it came to his origin.

And, Rein and I were the same in that regard.

We didn't have any background or anything aside from the fact that we were <C> rank adventurers. However…

"Ah… Lady Luna… of course I didn't!"

"Apologies."

"Pardon? I couldn't catch that-."

"Apologies to him. And stop being rude if you don't have anything to back your arrogance."

She was usually quiet if everyone knew the Next ice Queen of the north.

"Ah! Yes! I apologise, Captain Alpha!"

"Bastard."

I had no idea why they were even doing this on the first day of the school but whatever their reasons might be, no one here liked how they were doing this.

"Alright, alright Luna. Let it go. You! Clear the area. Med, go help the others to their classes. Quin, look after your classmates as well, and Tia, help me take care of this bunch."

"With pleasure~!"

Rein stepped in when it seemed like Luna was going to get angry because of this bunch and their behaviour towards her close friend.

"Their relationship was blooming as well, but seeing how she was protecting his reputation like that, it seems they were closer than I had originally known..."

"You said it out too loudly, mister."

"Ah, damn. Sorry."

Lizzy smiled at me as if she already knew what I was talking about, gave a nod of approval to the two of them, looked at the new engaged couple of this academy, looked at the couple that was soon going to come together, and then after looking at the Two of us, she shook her head at me.

"Haaa…"

She looked exhausted all of a sudden.

"There's no need to be like that. You'll find someone as well. I know you will."

"You think so?"

Being with Tia influenced all of the ladies of this group.

They read romantic books together and shared their thoughts openly when we boys weren't around.

'Lizzy was especially influenced by the way Rein and I were with one another.'

She had lacked affection and human closeness ever since she was born and after her mother had possessed her, she had no one to look after her.

'She lived on her own, and endured through many difficulties.'

She didn't have anyone to call a friend, much less close friend that she could share her personal life with.

'But we were special to her.'

Back at Lakmer and even when she was in our house in the capital of Roxana, she shared many things with us.

Axion and Reinelle were unfamiliar individuals to her and weren't someone she was that close with, but she told us that we reminded her of Rein and myself so she was just as much comfortable around us.

"Lizzy! What are you doing! Come here! Shoo them away if you will!"

"Yes~!"

She ran towards them after giving me a smile filled with faith, and though I wanted to stop her and give her a hug, I let her go this time.

We will have time after the classes so we can have our talks then.

"So, everyone? Ready for the classes?"

"Haha, I'm excited to meet teachers."

"They worked hard on the island, we should thank them all during the class time."

"Nice idea."

The ladies had gone on to do the hard thing of pushing the leeches away, leaving us boys to our own devices.

"We should tell Quin. She will shout-."

"Ginger? Did that engagement ring mess with your head?"

"Hmmm? What does that mean?"

They were fun ones.

It was always fun being around them, and it was going to be more fun.

"Aish. That's not important right now, is it?"

We talked about a number of things and were pretty open about a lot of things.

"Yo, Gin. Tell us about your amazing fiancé, dude. How far have you two gone now that you are official?"

Just like how they had Tia, we had Hide.

The expert that knew it all…

'Though, it was ironic how he didn't really knew a thing that really mattered in an actual relationship.'

It was ridiculous And funny.
