So What If It's an RPG World

Volume 10, Chapter 8: Unexpected People

[龙姬 = Longji (Chinese) = Ryuuhime (Japanese) = Dragongirl (English, not an option)]

“So it’s because you couldn’t find any clothes that fit her?”

Princess snow listened to our explanation before looking towards Oyado.

“But why did you suddenly say you were looking for me? I’m a lot taller than Oyado!”

“Oh? You are?”

I went to their side.

“Yeah, half a head taller.”

“That’s still taller!”

“Then may I ask, Your Highness, how old are you?”

“I……”

“Oyado is only 7 years old.”

“7……”

Princess Snow looked at Oyado with disbelief before turning back to me.

“That……that can’t be right? That’s a lie right? How can that be?”

Princess Snow’s expression was filled with despair.

“That’s right, it’s the truth!”

I said back to Princess Snow.

“But it not as if there isn’t a solution.”

“Un!”

Princess Snow suddenly said.

“What method is it?”

‘Cough cough. How about if you let Oyado borrow clothes I’ll tell you?”

“No problem!”

Princess Snow agreed without any hesitation.

“Come with me. I didn’t need any more clothes anyways.”

With that she waved her hand towards the carriage door.

Irlin quietly asked from the side.

“Fir, do you actually know a way to grow taller?”

“Yep. Did you also want to know it, Irlin? You haven’t grown very tall yet.”

“Oh no. I was……just curious……”

She said with a bit of a blush before turning around.

“Let’s go. We can’t leave the princess waiting.”

With that she walked towards the carriage.

Oyado and I followed silently behind her.

————————————Dusk settles like a dog————————————

I was shocked when Princess Show had the carriage pull up in front of an apartment for nobility. The information I got from the school said that the royalty usually bought a courtyard near the college.

As she left the carriage I decided that she must have wanted to try out the dorm lifestyle.

“Sorry, the house I bought is still being fixed. It’s still messy, so I’ve put everything into a dorm room for now.

“Ah……so that’s it.”

“What’s wrong? Why do you look disappointed? Sorry, the student dorm is sort of cramped. Hurry up and pick some clothes and we can head over to the hotel and wait for father.”

I could only giggle as Princess Snow completely failed to understand our expressions.

“Well then. Go ahead and get some clothes, Oyado. I will just wait outside.”

“Eh? Why?”

“What do you mean why? Even if I am a teacher I can’t casually stroll into the girls dorm.”

“That’s……true.”

Princess Snow nodded and Oyado and Irlin followed her into the dorm.

I glanced at the coachman. It seems that the Ice Emperor wasn’t comforted with Irlin’s strength. There’s no other reason for him to send in a level 60 swordsman.

Ah, they’re looking at me. Seriously. Who would want to be singled out by an old man like you? If I win it would be like I bullied an old man, and it also wouldn’t be good if I lost either. It’s really sad.

But……

Suddenly there was an attack alert coming from behind. I turned to the source of the warning but all that was there was Longji staring at me in the distance.

Didn’t I give you a headset? Why did you run over here?

I hurried over to her and the quickly turned a corner into an alley before using shadow sneak to rush over to Longji.

“What happened? I thought you had a headset you could contact me with?”

“Won’t use it.”

Those three simple words left me speechless.

“Ok. Let’s talk then. What’s wrong?”

“Ah, I may have found my target, so I am talking to you beforehand.”

“You mean…… the person in the photo? You’ve confirmed it?

“It should be. The number of people who use those weird weapons…… I don’t think there are many of them?”

“Oh. How do you know about their identity?”

While I was talking, I noticed that there was someone outside.

While I wouldn’t be ashamed to be seen with Longji and I gave her a job of cutting things in the school kitchen, but she is wearing her ninja outfit now. I’ll have to be careful.

“Um, they seem to be a teacher at this school.”

“Teacher?”

“That’s right. It seems that people think that the eastern martial arts would be useful after someone has lost their weapon, so……”

“This school is crazy……what are they thinking……”

I’m worried about the IQ of the school administration.

But when I think about it, people without skills keep trying to control me. It’s a characteristic of the school.

“Alright, I understand. What are you going to do? Head straight over and kill her?”

“……”

Longji was silent for a moment.

“I want to……watch for a bit.”

“Watch?”

“Because I think…… there is a strange feeling. I wan’t to find out what it is.”

“Strange feeling?”

Just when I wanted to ask her about it, she disappeared.

It looks like she isn’t going to do it. There’s no helping it. After this chat I needed to solve another girl’s problem.

I thought silently.
