Chapter 36: Assigned As A Tutor

~Volume 2 Nobility Arc~

[Ruric Town]

Three weeks have passed since the monster siege and everything went the way as it used to be, as a celebration everyone who survived from the attack got a promotional to rank up while the A-rank Adventurers that have a promotion would get tested first if they're fit to become an S-ranker

As for Shun he rank up from D-rank to C-Rank Adventurer and now was titled as the fastest ranker in the history of the Adventurers Guild in Ruric, after that they celebrated the whole week from their spoils and victory ending them to be merry and drunk throughout the seven nights

This time however Shun got request from Viscount Zack to meet him in his meeting room to discuss about something, when he arrived he was shocked to see Millia immediately plunging to his arms crying while Viscount Zack is busy sooting him

Soon afterwards he was also shocked when he received the news (Currently Yuumi returned from the book to rest a little bit from the unending stress she acquired throughout the days)

"Shun! You are assigned as a tutor for the daughter of a Duke on his own territory land and I assume you would comply to this since you were recommended" announced Viscount Zack

"Hah? Who recommended me?" Asks Shun with full of confusion in his voice

"Unfortunately that's me! I was boasting about you when the Duke took this chance and personally requested your help to teach his daughter how to control her magic" he explained

"Hah? I don't understand" complained Shun

"You'll be brief when you get there... . ." Replied Viscount Zack

Due to this Shun was in shock as he complained

"Wait a minute!!! A Duke is next to a rank of a royalty right? Then isn't the daughter will be a fiancee of the prince?" Ask Shun with anticipation of full isekai genre

"It was supposed to be that way but there isn't only one Duke but a dozens of them... . . Meaning the prince could choose who's daughter to marry, unfortunately due to some circumstances the prince didn't like this particular Duke's daughter so he settled with another one causing this girl to be dejected... . . By the way why are you asking me this? You can just ask the requester when you arrive there!!!" He stated

"I expect you to immediately leave tomorrow to be able to get there in time, don't worry Leah would join you since she has business with that territory too"

At that mention Millia hugged Shun tightly as she cried and objected

"Noooo!!! If he leaves then... . . Then... . . I wouldn't be able to see him again!"

This time Viscount Zack tried to console her

"But next year you would be alleged to attend the academy and if by chance you would be able to see him there" guessed Viscount Zack

"Nooo!!! But I have to endure a whole year of not seeing him!!!" She insisted

With that Viscount Zack gave Shun a push to leave urging him so that he can shoot his daughter easily

Apologizing to Millia Shun forcefully dragged his body towards the exit while trying to get Millia off of him

When he broke free Shun apologized before bidding farewell, while Viscount Zack received a punch and a tackle as he tries to hold his daughter back while the latter was actually pouting

As he got out he also bid the guards farewell as he left

Currently he was perplexed to know that he was going to leave the town in which he spend most of his time and has grown to like it, but since the requester is a Duke he couldn't just simply reject it thus leaving no choice but to leave the town

Afterwards he announced this to the people he knew at the Adventurers Guild which caused an uproar

Alex and Misha however cried when he announced that he was going to leave, surprisingly Lana also bawled a lot especially when she complained that she wouldn't be able to meet Yuumi if he leave

This in turn however Yuumi just recently returned and got debriefed of the situation, when Lana asked her if she can stay Yuumi however replied

"Wherever master goes, I follow!!!"

With that answer Lana couldn't help but cry a lot

To appease them Shun let Yuumi spend the night together with the girls while Shun console Alex who tried to be string to not cry at all

But when he consoled him the latter actually cried

Next morning when Shun was about to leave together with Leah, he was surprised to see that most of his acquaintances was actually there to see him off

"Big brother Shun are you really going to leave?" Asks Milla as she tries not to cry

"Big bro Shun the next time you visit I'll become a lot stronger than you!!!" Declared Alex as he patted his chest and tears welled up

"Big brother Shun I will remember you and Yuumi! Don't worry I'll take care of my brother for you guys" assured Misha as tears flows down her cheeks

"Shun! Whenever you want to talk and complain, you can always go back here after all this is also considered your home right?" Stated Lana as she wipes a tear from her eyes

Receiving all of this Shun was also at the brink of crying, in the past he couldn't even imagine himself being entangled by this people at all but after spending some time here, he noticed that he made a lot of friends throughout the months

"You guys... . . I'll remember you guys, I'll make sure to remember you whenever I wake up" he said making Yuumi smile a little bit and cheer him up as tears started to swell up in his eyes

"Don't worry this will always be your home" said Viscount Zack

As Shun slowly scanned their faces he actually reminiscence his past activities with this particular people, including the fun times and now he was about to leave them which made him tear up

Spreading his arms to urged them a final hug before leaving, all of them lounged unto him as they did a group hug and bid they're farewell

After that Leah urged Shun

"Shun! It's time to go!"

As he heated this Shun immediately climb inside the carriage as the vehicle moved towards the Duke's territory leaving Ruric Town

With a shout his friends actually raises their hands as they bid farewell

Surprisingly the knights and Adventurers went up to the walls and bidded him farewell too

Seeing them like this Shun shot his arms upwards as he waved wildly

"Goodbye guys! I'll remember you! Especially your stinky smell, your smelly clothes, and the times where you guys perverted yourself in your imaginations and dreams!!!"

As he said that roars from Adventurers and knights were thrown at him

"You bastard come back here! I'll kill you!"

"Hey don't go! Let me punch you first!!!"

"You! when I see you out there, I'll beat you up real good! So you better hide you shit!!!"

As curses roared up from the walls Viscount Zack couldn't help but laugh at the situation while he sighed and shook his head as he said

"Big brother Shun really likes to make fun of words and people"

"Well that Shun for you... . . Hahahahaha!"

As the girls said that they laughed at Shun's farewell's and resolved themi to meet him again soon

On the road Leah asked shun if he was fine since he did cried when he left, but the latter immediately answered her

"Don't worry! Life is an adventure! I'm sure we will meet again! Now onwards to our new destination!!!" He acted as if he was a captain of a pirate ship

*******************************************

[Duke's Manor]

After few days since Shun's departure the Duke's daughter finally arrived at their Manor for the 1 month semestral break, with a blonde long hair that reached her shoulders and fair skin with her deep red eyes that could attract someone, one could really mistake her for a princess

But as soon as she got down she was so much dejected that the atmosphere actually turned gloom, causing the servants and the guards to be surprised the once happy mistress they have actually was gloomy and dejected

All of them deducted that something must have happened during her stay at the academy that caused her this way

"Dear! Are you okay?" Asked her mother

"I'm okay mother" she replied but remained gloomy as she greeted her father and went to her room upstairs

Seeing her like this her mother talked to he father

"This... . . Just what happened to her to make her this way?" Asks the girls mother to her father

But in reply the Duke actually shook his head for he also don't know what happened inside the academy, but he reassured his wife

"Don't worry I requested from my friend a helper that could actually help our daughter's case, maybe just maybe he could also help her in her problems

As he said that the wife put her entire trust to the Duke hoping the situation would improve

Inside her room the girl stayed dejected as she leaned on the window and muttered

"Everything I do is useless, I'm useless... . . All my efforts are only a waste"

After that she quietly cried by the side all alone in her room, hoping someone to help her in time of her need
