「This is the the music room, that one is the art room. And once you pass through here, the gym.」
「Fumu…」
I was being guided around this schoolhouse 【Ragnarok】 by Theold.
「Yep, we done touring around the special classroom. The rest is the normal classroom where we study…」
「O, onii-chan!」
「Nn? Aah, it's you, Miria.」
As Theold was being called as an elder brother, someone who walked over was a girl who somewhat similar to him.
While the girl was surprised after seeing me, she asked Theold for an explanation.
「O, onii-chan! Isn't he…」
「Yeah, the guy we saved back then. He woke up so I showed him around the school. Ah, of course, I've got the principal's permission.」
After Theold put his arm over the girl's shoulder, she made a short introduction.
「This gal's my sis, Miria. Do you see this『Blue Plate』?」
「Don't say it like that! ……Umm, I'm Theold's sister, Miria.」
「Zephys Deu Rozen. Please address me as you like. ……I was out of it at Grato, but what is the meaning to【Plate】?」
「Eh?」
While my question made Miria's eyes grow as wide as saucers, Theold explained it to me with a reluctant look on his face.
「Hahaha……damn, it's bad, Zephys doesn't have common sense. He doesn't know about the things we take for granted.」
「Not that we can say that he doesn't have any common sense, it's just that we have to accept it for now.」
「There's no point in living without common sense like that though……」
While Miria breathed out an astonished sigh, he answered my question.
「So, ya said that you didn't get what【Plate】means, right?」
「Ah, yeah.」
「To explain it simply, 【Plate】refers to an【Eradicator】's status and rank……。Each grade is defined by color. The highest rank is『Black Plate』followed by『Gold』,『Silver』,『Bronze』,『Blue』,『Red』, and『White』. A bunch of kids at this school study on a daily basis to『White』rank qualifications.」
「I see.」
Which means, as for Greyd the【Eradicator】, he ranks the highest amongst all of them.
Theold said that he was Bronze, so that must mean that he is right in the middle? His sister Miria is one under him.
「……Nn?By the way, is this schoolhouse the place for people train become an 【Eradicator】? Does this mean that you two already have the qualifications to fight as 【Eradicators】?」
「……Yeah. We've been fighting against the 【Angels】for years.」
As such, there lay darkness somewhere in Miria's expression.
Similarly, Theold also had a darkened expression, which shifted the atmosphere.
「Well, whatever! First of all, Zephys. How's it?Do you somewhat understand how【Ragnaraok】works as a facility?」
「Ah, yes. I am grateful. So what will you be doing after this?」
「Hmー……The tour took quite a while, and it's probably time to return to the principal.」
「All right.」
There were three people time time including Miria we returned to the principal's office.
After Theold knocked on the door, I heard Greyd's voice.
「Enter.」
「Excuse us.」
When we entered the office, there was no sign of Viola and it seemed that he had returned to his duties. We definitely took a lot of time. Of course.
「How do you find it? Zephys-kun. Do you like this school?」
「Umu. There were things I'd never seen before and everything was fresh. What surprised me more than anything else was……」
「What surprised you?」
「The Hamburger.」
「Not the facility!? Just how much did you like it!」
Well, that was really delicious.
The Hamburger was an example that I had brought up, but other than that……for example, I was also moved by the 『Fried Shrimp』and『Friend Chicken』.
While I was in the middle of remembering that meal, Miria appeared to be holding back her surprise and astonishment.
「……It's really full of mysteries, but for starters, I think it's remarkable that the principal has spoken greatly about it……」
「……The opponent is a『Black Plate』like he said. Cannot be moved by such things.」
「There is no need to hesitate.」
We're not enemies after all.
Glayd who's looking at us with smiles opened his mouth as if he recalled something.
「Ah yes, yes. I believe I've told you, Zephys-kun, but I'll have you to attend this school. So far so good?」
「Umu?」
「However, one question from me; have you ever dealt 【True Arms】?」
「【True Arms】?」
Come to think of it, Theold said the same thing to me when I woke up… .
While I was recalling it, Theold seemed like remembered the same scene and told me.
「Y'see Zephys, you wore an armor weren't you? Ain't that a 【True Arms】?」
「Fumu… I'm afraid my armor isn't what you'd call 【True Arms】.」
「Eh, it ain't that!? Haah!? D, don't tell me … 【God's Nuclear Arms】!?」
「What is that?」
I only could tilt my neck after hearing so many unknown words springing up one after another.
My armor was a 『Part of Me』 and I hadn't show it here yet, but the other similar things had never been called like that.
Greyd nodded his head at my reaction.
「I don't know the details, but apparently you have never used the 【True Arms】, haven't you.」
「Do I have to use it?」
「No, that's not the case. This place is a school to educate 【Eradicators】. There are many people who got their first 【True Arms】 here just like you are. Don't worry.」
「I see.」
I don't quite understand, but it's alright it seems.
「In any case, while it's not a problem if you don't have it, it'll be helpful if you have one or two.――Fortunately, tomorrow and the day after it are holidays. I have something to ask to you two, Theold-kun and Mirikun, would you to take Zephys-kun to the Labyrinth of Initial Resolution?」
「【Labyrinth of Initial Resolution】?」
「You don't know? It is one of the dungeons that exists in the world, and【Ragnarok】is the official manager of the dungeon for beginners.」
「That's right. When you go there, you can obtain your【True Arms】. The method you use doesn't really matter. Isn't that nice?」
『Yes!』
「? Yeah. I don't quite follow the story, but I accept it.」
「Don't just say you get it when you really don't!? Well, you still gotta go anyway!」
While Theold was mulling over my reaction, Miria looked at my body and then spoke to Greyd with a serious look on her face.
「Principal. As an【Eradicator】,wouldn't it be better to do something about his outfit? It suits him now, but……I feel like its out of place.」
『Ah……』
As I tilted my neck, Greyd gave me a bitter laugh.
「Zephys-kun. As I expected, you should buy clothes for yourself first. School supplies such as uniforms will be prepared by me, so it would be ideal if you buy the daily necessities. I'm sorry for this, Theold-kun, but could I leave this matter to you guys?」
「Huh? Ah, yes!……Leaving this guy alone would make me feel anxious.」
「I am also fine as well.」
「Thank you. Then, I will hand Theold-kun the money later. You should also purchase everyday items in addition to the clothes. If there's something you don't understand, Theold-kun can explain it to you.」
「Umu, I won't stir up any trouble.」
「You better don't!」
「……We've picked up quite a character, haven't we?」
Thus, I was to spend the next day with the two of them.
