I Want to Repay the Debt
Part 1 / Part 2
Courtyard
Idia: Huuuh… class is finally over. In any case the weather is too nice today… it's a bit hard on shut-ins honestly…
Idia: On days like this the best course of action is going back to my room and complete all the daily quests.
???: ……..
Idia: …hm, is there someone here?
Idia: S-S-S-S-S-Silver!? Why are you lying dead here in the courtyard!?
Silver: Zzz… zzz…
Idia: Ah… is he just sleeping…? Damn, that scared me…
Idia: …but he has such a handsome face. I bet he is popular with the ladies~.
Idia: His sleeping face is sparkling like a prince's. Even animals are gathering around him…
Idia: It's as if he's a different person from the one I met on the day before the Magic Shift Tournament.
Idia: He thrust his baton at me, it was scary…
Idia: If not for that meeting, I would've never interacted with someone like him.
Silver: Hn… Uuh…
Idia: Eeek! I-i-i-is he, is he waking up?
Silver: Yawns, ah… I thought I sensed the presence of another person, so it was you Idia-senpai…
Idia: Y-y-y-y-you're wrong!! I by no means have stolen glances at your sleeping face!!
Silver: ? Try to calm down first. Whenever you meet me you get all startled huh.
Idia: T-That was the reaction of a gloomy person you know…
Idia: A-a-a-a-anyone would be surprised if you swing a baton at them like you did the other day.
Silver: Now that you say that I guess that's true… I'm sorry about that day.
Idia: Ugh… getting such a sincere apology is making me all wobbly…
Idia: M-Mr. Silver, you're a bit strange… you're honest and loyal for a student here…
Silver: …is that so?
Idia: Y-Yeah. Walking around at night for your Dorm Leader's safety is something students in Ignihyde would never do…
Idia: …ah! Can it be that Mr. Malleus is imposing a reign of terror on Diasomnia Dorm?
Idia: I-it makes sense then… you were forced to patrol at night right?
Silver: A reign of terror is unnecessary in Diasomnia Dorm. The night patrol was something we did independently.
Silver: I don’t know about you and the students in Ignihyde Dorm but I'll do anything for the one I swore loyalty to.
Silver: Because the fact that I can live right now is all thanks to my Old Man and Malleus-sama.
Silver: I want to repay the debt to them.
Idia: Ooh… your expression is cool but I can hear the passion of a weeb in your voice…
Idia: I can relate to that…
Silver: On top of that, I want to avoid a conflict between the kingdom of the humans and the Valley of Thrones, in case something was to happen to Malleus-sama.
Silver: I can’t do much with my strength alone but I want to do whatever I can.
Silver: My Old Man told me time and again that we shouldn't make war, that's how he raised me…
Idia: Oh… such deep words.
Idia: I bet that "Old Man" of yours is a strong person with a body and soul of steel.
Silver: Yeah. My Old Man served in the royal guard under the Lord of the Valley of Thrones.
Silver: It is said that he was valued for his skills at the art of war, and he had the trust of the Queen.
Silver: He's resigned now, but he threw himself into wars many times, he even received medals as a warrior.
Silver: I'm sure without a doubt that he went through severe experiences beyond my imagination…
Idia: W-What the hell. It's like an open-world RPG…
Silver: Open world?
Idia: I-it's about online games. Right, IRL wouldn’t know about that, sorry for being such a weeb.
Silver: No, I've heard about online games. My Old Man also often plays those games until late at night.
Idia: Hmm!? Your Old Man turned into a common person!?
Silver: My Old Man has always liked whatever was popular at the moment. Recently he has started using Magicame too.
Idia: E-Eeeeh!? His all-powerful royal knight character is breaking and breaking…!
Lilia: Hey Silver. What are you loafing around there for?
Lilia: You promised you'll help me with the high difficulty quest after school right?
Silver: Old M-… Lilia-senpai. I'm sorry. I'll go right away.
Lilia: Hm…? What do you know, it's Idia. Such a strange combination.
Idia: Ah, ah, ….L-L-L-Lilia. That's, um…
Silver: We met by chance while I was napping here.
Silver: See you later, Idia-senpai.
Idia: Y-Yeah, see you…
Idia: …Silver's story about his Old Man was interesting.
Idia: Even though he's a decorated warrior of the Valley of Thrones he's also a heavy user of online games and Magicame lolol.
Idia: If such a person really exists, even a human hater like me would want to meet him…
Diasomnia Dorm – Hallway
Lilia: I have to grind materials for the upcoming new items. And a seasonal event is starting next week, how busy.
Silver: You really look like you're having fun when you talk about games.
Lilia: When I was young, there weren't any online games, see.
Lilia: All the residents of the world overcome boundaries and devote themselves to entertainment. It became such a peaceful world.
Silver: That's right. A peaceful world where you can enjoy games…
Silver: After all, I have to keep protecting it.
Lilia: …you turned into an arrogant one as well.
Lilia: Then I'll take you up on that and concentrate on gaming to my heart content. I won't let you sleep tonight~!
Silver: A-Anything but that, Old Man…
