-Principal POV-

“Sir the armor Mjolnir brought back has been analyze by our researchers. I think you might want to go to the lab sir. They stated they would like to tell it to you directly.”

The armor of the knight that fought the dragon to a stand still is definitely something that peaked my interest so I didn’t hesitate and went to the lab. The analyze took a while however since it has been several hours since I had ordered mjolnir to interrogate the noble who had given us the demibeast known as Sera. If my hypothesis is correct its most likely true that the dragon is Sera or at the very least related even if they aren’t the same entity. As of now Sera origin is of upmost importance. The armor is from an entity capable enough to be a S rank level. Since it isn’t from our country we might learn the technology used by one of the other major countries. I suppose the fact the dragon killed another country S rank is beneficial. As long as the country the knight belongs to doesn’t find out we were involve. Damn it why does everything have to be so complicated. If they seek revenge we have no choice but to go into war. If it truly does happen what is the odds of a mere C rank such as myself to survive the ordeal.

My thoughts were a train wreak ever since I found out one of our presumably dead students looked identical to a dragon we had been chasing for more than a decade. Arriving at the lab I went back into my calm state to prevent any information from being leaked. If possible I don’t want too many people to know, since the more people that knows it the higher the chance a rumor might spread. Preventing any possible mishap is my duty as the principal. We might be a academy for students to learn combat but we are also considered the army of the country so I have a huge responsibility placed on my shoulder.

“Sir this armor. If its indeed another country technology we are unsure how they made it.”

“What do you mean?”

“The armor and sword alike are made by giving mana a physical form. The mana is densely packed somehow and its capable of maintaining a solid form without the assistance of any parts. We are unable to analyse the mana because we couldn’t revert it to mana form. We have also tested the ability of the sword and armor. They have no special feature to speak of other than the unusual ability of being virtually indestructible. We have requested the assistance of several B rank yet none were able to even leave a scratch on it. Unfortunately that is the most we could find out. Anything else is simply beyond us as we are unsure how the weapon is even made. Its simply to advance for us to understand.”

Well that knight did fight with the armor against the dragon. If it could withstand the blows of a dragon I suppose its enough to believe it is indeed indestructible. Damn it this didn’t amount to much. I need better information. The armor and sword is useless in the hands of a weakling if it indeed only has the property of being resilient. I hope mjolnir has better news for me that what I have obtained on the armor.

-Mjolnir POV-

The noble manor the principal told me about was situated around the border of the city so it took a while for me to reach it. I had my partner with me. It was a B rank daema who I nicknamed sparky. A discovery that was made when the system was started was that daema were capable of changing their appearance to their animal counterpart and it made them look less intimidating. Its impossible to see a daema assume such a  form in the wild so it makes sense it was a new discovery when we started to tame them. Sparky was a lizard type daema and in his current form he looked like a normal lizard. Most daema were animals in form except for the dragon.. The wyvern the lowest ranking dragon and the only one the military has successfully captured and tamed transformed into a miniature version of itself rather than a humanoid form. We assume its similar for all the dragon type daema but the latest discovery seems to state otherwise.

Arriving at the nobleman manor what greeted me was exactly what I expected. A extravagant looking house with a elaborate garden. Noble disgust me believing they hold all the power in the world simply because they were born into a family of power. I who was born in a poor household and had to work my way up to the top detest these people who got to where they were without any effort.

I went up to the door and knocked on it a few times waiting for a response. After a couple of minutes a woman opened the door. She seemed to be the maid of the house as she introduced herself as alice.

“Excuse me but master isn’t expecting anyone today.”

“I’m from the military and I have a few question I would like to ask your master.”

“Please wait for a moment sir I will go inform my master of your presence,”

I waited for a couple of minutes in front of the house before I was finally allowed in guided but a man who introduced himself as the butler. He guided me to a room and inside of the room resided a single man sitting behind his table.

“Good day sir. I’m a representative from the military who would like to ask you a couple of questions.”

“What sort of questions do you have for me on this fine day.”

“I would like to inquire about a demibeast you sent to the academy all those years ago.”

“Hmmm I don’t recall doing such a thing. Reynold would you kindly answer this gentlemen questions.”

“What would you like to know?”

“Where did you acquire her from?”

After an hour or so of questioning them the result was a wasted trip and a waste of my time. The noble himself didn’t know anything and from the butler all I found out was that she was from the slums. Back then the city walls had yet to be built, allowing people to wonder into the slums at will. The walls was built to prevent more peasants from wondering into the city which increased the crime rate. They didn’t seem to remember anything else since it wasn’t important to them. I wouldn’t have hesitated to arrest them if they had been lying but they simply didn’t care about her. They were truthful as well so I had no valid reason to do so. They didn’t even do anything illegal, it’s the sad truth that people living in the slum weren’t even allowed simple rights. No one would care if someone kidnap people from the slum and sold them as slaves, even more so demibeast. The law has improve of course but slave trading is still a thriving business despite the fact it is now considered illegal to kidnap people to sell as slaves.

The only information I got is that her origin is a mystery. We have no more leads to go on from here on out. I don’t think the principal will enjoy hearing my report.

-Ria POV-

The next day I went to the adventurer guild to take the promotion test. Needless to say I flawlessly passed the test. With that I was officially promoted to a copper ranked adventurer.

Walking back to the inn after passing the test I was in a rather good mood. I hummed a little tune to myself as I enjoyed my casual stroll down the street. On the way back to the inn I passed by a scary looking person who was walking towards the entrance of the town. I couldn’t help but have the feeling that I have seen her before. I can’t remember where but somewhere deep down I just felt like I recognized her.

She didn’t even notice me though. Well not many people would bother looking at someone wearing a cloak. Should I try following her? Well the last time I followed someone it ended up a disaster. Resisting the urge I went back to the inn to relax a little. Just like how I was like living alone I slacked a lot in my cave not doing much. It had somehow turned into a habit to relax and not do much if I had nothing better to do. I couldn’t get the girl face out of my mind though even as I was rolling around on my bed in the inn.
