While rejoicing about finally knowing my name, Alou pass the pendant to the 3 for them to see it too.
They looked happy for me too.
"So Ares-sama is only 14 years old huh. Just like Aloumine-sama."
"Y-yes." I nodded awkwardly.
"Is this fate? Right Aloumine-sama?" said Martha in teasing tone.
"W-wh-what are you t-talking about Martha?! I-I have no idea what you're implying!"
Alou stuttered and her face was blushing furiously.
"Ehh~ do I really have to spell it out? Right Leutte?"
When I spotted Leutte, she was staring at me with flushed red cheeks.
She must be imagining things. She looked like she was lost in her own world.
How pure…
"H-huh?! What are you talking about? I-I'm not i-in that kind of re-mufh!"
Alou flailing her hand while saying that, but she suddenly put her hand over her mouth to stop herself from putting more fuel in the fire.
"Ufufu~" Martha sure is enjoying teasing the younger girls.
"Geez, Martha. Ah! Look at Leutte, she froze!" Espina said in exasperated voice.
And here I thought that Martha-san is the proper one here.
I thought while putting my hand on my forehead.
"Haa…" I let out an exasperated sigh.
Then finally Leutte and Alou recovered and put both hands on their face to hide it.
"Remember this Martha, uuu"
"When did you managed to get back on me Aloumine-sama? I've known you since you were very small child so I know all your weaknesses ufufufu~"
And here I thought you were a proper and cute lady.
De-devil! She's a devil! Give me back my compliment!
"Haa~ that was refreshing. Well then let's get back to the main topic here."
She looked very satisfied and she came back to her proper front. Then she took the pendant and looked at it again.
"These 2, the race and class seems to be not registered."
The 2 calmed down when they heard Martha. Leutte looked at the pendant and Martha passed it on her. She inspected it for a while and shook her head.
"It's unknown."
"Unknown?" I asked Leutte and she nodded.
"Yes. There's only blank space on those 2 unlike the other 3 which shows the information, this 2 doesn't show anything."
"Isn't that weird? I have never heard about an identification crystal malfunctioning before." Said Martha with a baffled expression.
"I-is that so…"
"I guess it has something to do with Ares-sama being summoned here."
"That's right Martha. Hmm…" Alou said while putting her hand on her chin in thinking position.
"I think it's okay for now. I'm fine with this for now, so you don't need to think about it so much Alou."
"Are you sure? Mm, if you say so then let's just do that."
"Yes. So let's get back to me wanting to learn magic. As you can see I don't think I would be able to read those books even if you lend it to me…"
Because I won't be able to read it then it would be good if there is someone around here who can teach me how to use magic instead.
"Hmm, that's true. Then how about Martha? She excels in magic and her scores are outstanding on the Magic University you know. How about it Martha?"
"Of course I would be happy to teach Ares-sama if he is okay with me."
"R-really?! That's a great help! Please take care of me, Martha-sensei."
"S-sensei? Ufufu~ okay, prepare yourself Ares-kun."
When she said that, my whole body stiffened and cold sweat trickled on my back.
Wh-what is this feeling? My instinct says that I should run now while I can.
I looked at Alou and she looked away.
What?! Why? Is she that scary?
Sorry Ares, I wish you good luck! Alou said in her mind.
Because Alou won't be of any help I turned to Leutte and Espina but their eyes are already averting from me.
S-seriously?! Just what did I get myself into?
"Ufufu~ don't worry about it Ares-kun, I will be ge~ntle with your training. Ufufu~"
Don't 'ufufu~' me!
For some reason I really want to run away but I need this so I have to face it!
"Y-yes! I'll be in your care!"
I don't know what's waiting for me but I'll do my best.
"That's good, I like your attitude." Martha said while smiling.
That smile is scary!
So the problem now is reading and writing huh… If I'm going to live in this world then it's good to learn how to read and write.
Thinking that this is also a good opportunity to ask for help in reading and writing, I turned to Alou.
"…I would also like to learn how to read and write the language of this world if possible."
While I was waiting for Alou's reply, Leutte slightly raised her hand.
"U-uhm…"
"What is it Leutte?" Asked Alou.
"…I can teach Ares-sama, if he's okay with me."
"""WHAT?!""" The 3 of them let out a surprised voice.
"Th-that Leutte who is not good in dealing with other people is representing herself?"
"T-to think that our little sister have finally overcame her weakness!"
"To think that Leutte would finally climb the stairs of adulthood!"
The 2 said in amazement while Martha mixed in some teasing lines.
That remark is not necessary!
I turned to Leutte and lowered my head.
"Then please take care of me, Leutte-sensei."
"Ah! Y-yes! I look forward to it Ares-sama!"
When she heard me call her teacher (sensei), she jumped in joy and her expression brightened up.
"Also, please stop addressing me formally from now on, to you too Espina-san."
"Really? Then call me Pina too, Ares-kun!"
"O-okay, A-Ares-san."
"ufufu"
"Okay Pina. Leutte and Martha-san, ones again, please take care of me."
I lowered my head to both of them.
"Likewise, Ares-kun." "T-take care of me too, Ares-san."
Martha and Leutte bowed their head as well.
"…muu, why do I feel like I'm being left out."
Alou is pouting.
Seeing her like that, we all laughed and it made Alou sulk even more. She is being cute again.
And so, I gained 2 teachers (sensei). I decided to address them as my teacher during our learning sessions.
The days of learning magic, writing and reading begins.
