[Teaser] DCO Chapter 7 Part 3

 

TEASER CHAPTER 7 PART 3




Even after the incident caused by Ken Notis, classes at the school were still going on without a hitch on the surface.

It was the same in the third year, first-class classroom to which he belonged.

Irisdina, having finished nursing Nozomu, was walking down the hallway leading to her classroom.

The morning assembly had probably not started yet. There were buzzing conversations leaking into the hallway from inside the classroom.

When Irisdina arrived in front of her classroom, she took a deep breath and put her hand on the door.

When the door rattled open, all eyes in the classroom turned to her at once.

The hustle and bustle that had been going on earlier had suddenly stopped, and all eyes filled with interest and curiosity turned to her at once.

Irisdina sat down in her seat, ignoring all of the various gazes around her.

The information about Irisdina and Shīna treating the injured Nozomu had not been made public.

However, it was a fact that Nozomu, who had been spending a lot of time with Irisdina and the others recently, was currently being treated in the hospital after being injured in a recent incident.

Irisdina and Shīna were frequently seen coming to school late and leaving immediately after school ended, anyone could get a rough idea of what was going on.

In fact, there was a student who actually asked Irisdina directly, "Are you going to visit Nozomu?" and she didn't deny it either.

The only thing that Jihad kept quiet about was that Nozomu was a Dragon Slayer and about Abyss Grief.

Since it was a well-known fact that Nozomu was hospitalized, there was no need to deny it.

However, this fact caused quite a stir among the students.

Irisdina is one of the five most beautiful girls in the school. And considering her ability, origin, and potential, it was impossible not to gossip about her.

Precisely because she was unattainable, she attracted people's interest and attention.

The dark-haired princess had a new love interest.

Recently, she and Nozomu had been getting along well, and rumors about this had been circulating, but when she started taking care of Nozomu, the story spread throughout the school at once.

The fact that Lisa Hounds' gossip had sprung up just at that time also contributed to the spread of this rumor.

 

"Hey, Is it true that Irisdina-san..  with that guy..."

"I wonder about that. Nozomu and Irisdina-san are an unusual combination, aren't they? Nozomu certainly seems to be ridiculously strong, but he's not someone of noble birth, isn't he?"

"But it's obvious that the black-haired princess has been acting strange lately. It seems she lost her composure…”

 

Even though her surroundings were noisy, Irisdina's mind was on something else entirely.

From the beginning, Irisdina was accustomed to the gazes of those around her.

She had lived in a narrow, aristocratic society that was sensitive to other people's rumors.

Compared to that sticky, suffocating, damp, and cold world, she didn't care about the gossip of the students.

Therefore, it was not such a rumor that dominated her mind now.

What came to her mind was Nozomu lying in a hospital room. And all she could think of was his childhood friend who was nursing him.
