After nearly an hour of walking, they arrived at the vicinities of the main gate of the Imperial Palace. Sakamo thought it was weird if she lived there, but probably her parents worked there.
To his surprise, a group of four men ran to them as soon as they recognised the Princess, and one of them shouted to Sakamo, “Let her go! Why are you holding her hand like that? Why did you kidnap her?”
Sakamo felt Hiko trembling as she hid behind him, and he whispered, “What do these guys want? Are they friends of those guys this morning?”
Alex Brim was already thirty-five, and for the last two years, he had been living permanently in Azurath because his forever-young look was making people suspicious of him on Earth. So, without informing anyone, he purchased two one-way tickets to Nepal for himself and Hangaku Mae, leaving on his kitchen counter a single note stating that they were going to live in a secluded monastery deep in the mountains for their retirement, leaving behind his stressful work at the Earthquake Institute and as a part-time teacher at Tokyo Metropolitan Nishi High School.

Alex Brim was finishing his lunch, together with his Party for that Quest. Gabriel Dawson got up after finishing his meal and said, “Before anything else, I need to pee. I will be right back to help with tidying the campsite.” The Fairy Wenammy spoke while disguising a smile and trying to remain serious, “If you get in trouble, try not to scream like a little girl. It’s kind of embarrassing hearing such a big man scream like that.” Gabriel grunted. “I didn’t scream like a little girl when those Goblins attacked us in the morning. I made out a very virile scream because of surprise!”
Alex skilfully avoided the questions by talking the least possible about him while riding his horse next to James Macdonald. “I am used to having my employers doubting my skills in the first job, but then they realize I am way more powerful than the money they paid for my services, and they always hire me again.” “Well, I will be one of them, for sure. Your services were extremely useful, and we completed this extremely dangerous Quest with none of us dying, and… I was told that you are also a powerful Mage, but I only saw you using a sword, daggers, bow, and your shield. I noticed you glowing a little with Magic when you were running at an incredible speed to that Orc, but it was only that time.”
In the morning, Sakamo Ryu grabbed his new School bag and left his house. His new School was only a six-minute walk, that was one of the reasons why he rented that house. The other one was that the real state agency also informed him that there was a nice family restaurant nearby and a small market. In the street, there was a familiar man disguised in a municipal uniform, sweeping the floor. Sakamo Ryu made a slight nod, and the man returned it. Ryu walked and looked left and right, trying to find a place where he could have breakfast, considering it was still early for School, and he couldn’t eat breakfast at home because he didn’t buy grocerie
The Principal gulped. Applying to the admission tests of all the High Schools and getting the highest score on all of them was not a simple task. Having such a student attending his School would also be good for him, not only to increase the status of the School, but because he could also brag about having an amazing student under his care. “I see… I thank you for that choice, and I hope we don’t make you regret it. It will be an honour to have you here, and I do hope we can help you in your future when you graduate.” “As do I, Principal. By the way, I may need to be absent one or two
Kaishu Katsu walked to his desk and faced his students. He took a slow deep breath and spoke, “Place the page with your answers on my desk when class ends. Don’t forget to put your name on it. It’s probably better if we relax for a while and everyone says a few things about themselves so that we can know each other a little better. Who wants to start?” A girl in the left row spoke while looking at Sakamo with dreamy eyes, “Sensei, I wouldn’t mind hearing everything about Sakamo-kun! Maybe he doesn’t mind being the first if we ask him nicely!” Kaishu Katsu slowly nodded and faced the o
