- It's good that we caught up. Goro said walking along with Sakamoto at the very end. Now he didn't pay attention to the fact that Sakamoto was a little different, but he was still the same aloof hickey.
-Wow. - everyone was surprised. Since they started in the village of beginners, which was made by the goddess who called them, but did not show her face in front of them. Only the voice in the form of a system was their initial stage, but after that... They were killed by the Demon Lord.
Everyone looked around and looked at the decorations in the castle. It seemed to everyone that this was out of the ordinary, a fantasy, so to speak, even after they had died once. But Skamoto did not pay attention to luxury and droplets of attention.
The princess leading them all led them to the throne room and talked about the world.
Is it true that dwarf women have beards? one of them asked a question.
-Hey! Yoshido! How can you ask such a thing?! - the female half of the class was indignant, among which was Hasegawa Hikari. The radiant class rep who was the most popular in the class until another celebrity in our class took her place.
-It seems not. Never seen such. - Princess Elizabeth said without any hesitation, putting her finger to her lips for the sake of appearance. Her hair, as beautiful as pink sakura petals, swayed in the wind, and green eyes emphasized her green mage dress.
The class passed another corridor and stopped at the door to the throne room. The knights on either side opened the doors and everyone entered.
- Greetings, heroes! - said the king, sitting on the throne. The king was of a muscular build with princess pink hair and red eyes.
"Since your training was interrupted by the Demon Lord, the goddess is now insisting on practical training for you. he said, looking at everyone while the others whispered to each other.
-Again? one classmate asked another, whom Sakamoto no longer understood. -I don't want to die!
-How could the final Boss even appear at the beginning of the game? It's like confusing a dragon's lair with a lion's! - Unrest began in the group, but with a simple movement of the hand, the king stopped them.
- Not! You will not go to the forests. You will train here! In the castle! I will hire the most advanced trainers for you. - said the king brushing aside all the excitement. - Now please pass the assessment.
- Please, heroes! Open your books of life! - shouted the magician who came to the assessment. At first no one understood, but after one had a book in his hands, everyone in turn began to say to himself: "The Book of Life!"
-Crap. Why do I only have a book cover?! - Goro was indignant at his book, since he had only about ten pages and then empty.
-My God! exclaimed one of the magicians, looking at the thick volume of the Kudou Rin book. - This is amazing! You are so talented that your book of life is bigger than others!
-Ha! I studied abroad. - he began to show off in front of everyone with his book. Kudo Rin, a gyaru and a native of Japan. Transferred from abroad, her father always moves because of a business trip, so at one point he got tired of dragging his only child with him, he just left him in Japan.
-Hm. - In the back row, in the hands of Sakamoto, there was a shabby book, which even the magician did not pay attention to. The cover wasn't exquisite and with special colors like Rin's, but it made the callous-looking Sakamoto tear up.
- Don't be upset, probably... it's temporary. - said Goro, to which the standing magician whispered in the ear of the new magician: "No."
Sakamoto remembered what book it was. The book that his love gave him, which he did not even manage to admit. Although shabby, but only because of time, the remaining memory of love reminded him of his goal. So he now intended to leave the castle as quickly as possible.
- Congratulations to the heroes! Now you can start your pledge! Go to your chambers, and after you a feast awaits! - said the king, to which everyone in the class went to their rooms. Sakamoto and Goro were separated, as each had his own escort.
-Your chambers, hero. the maid said as she left Sakamoto in the room. The beds here were doubles with curtains, so he just fell on her. But he felt that something was already lying on the bed. The double bed was too big, and because of that, Sakamoto didn't notice that someone was already on the bed.
-Nya? yawned the awakened she-wolf, rubbing her eyes.
