To defeat the Demon King, this is probably the best weapon

　　"How beautiful..."

　　"Shinichi-san knows a place like this..."

　　As the two walked towards the pavilion, they looked around at the surrounding scenery.

　　Ogata sighed from the bottom of her heart, but Furuhashi frowned slightly, and the scene of following Shinichi to the labyrinth garden a few days ago couldn't help but come to her mind.

　　Then Furuhashi remembered never having seen Shinichi having lunch in class or the cafeteria. Every time during lunch break, he would leave class alone with a lunch box, and wouldn't return until class started.

　　When she didn't know him well before, she thought he was so aloof that he hid in the toilet to eat, and felt a little pity, maybe he was ostracized because of his good grades.

　　Later, Shinichi becomes her tutor, and the two know each other very well. Furuhashi felt that Shinichi went to the study room to eat, or went to the Student Council office to eat with the Student Council members.

　　But now...

　　Could it be that Shinichi had been surrounded by this beautiful sight the whole time, reading a book and eating at the same time, just enjoying his lunch time alone?

　　Very good, just thinking about it makes people's heart flutter… No, it's just envy.

　　Furuhashi had a sudden inspiration. Maybe that day, Shinichi didn't come here to have a private meeting with the other party after receiving the love letter, but only came here for lunch?

　　It is indeed possible! This possibility may be more than 200%!

　　(I said that Asada-san doesn't think about falling in love every day. A cursory love letter should be thrown into the depths of a drawer. A place like this isn't open to everyone. Turns out it was completely my misunderstanding.)

　　(Fortunately, I didn't worry about that sort of thing after that. Otherwise, I'd look stupid and care whether Asada-san gets snatched away? Really, there won't be such a thing! Asada-san is our educator, whether someone admits it or not , it's none of my business~)

　　Ogata turned around: "Fumino, why are you smiling happily?"

　　"Ah hahahaha... I'm not laughing, am I? Seriously, Ricchan said something weird~"

　　"The strangest fumino..."

　　Furuhashi ignored Ogata's questioning look.

　　(One day when Asada-san comes here for lunch, I'll sneak up behind him and scare him… As for whether we'll be having lunch together later, that's not important, the main goal is to give him a surprise. By the way, I've memorized way to this pavilion, and I can wait for Asada-san to enter the labyrinth for a few minutes before following her in. Then when she's very attentive while reading and eating, and maybe I can sneak behind and get an iced drink touching her neck...)

　　These images popped up in her mind, Furuhashi involuntarily giggled, causing Ogata to reflexively take a few steps back.

Furuhashi seems to be unstable, is it pre exam syndrome?

　　Or had she read too much liberal arts, she would become like this?

　　The two were relatively silent for a while, and followed the clues to a tall, blooming cherry tree, and soon found that there were traces of digging and hoarding on the ground nearby.

　　The word cards also remind them to bring a small spade for digging. So without hesitation, they pulled up their skirts, squatted down on the ground and started digging. It didn't take long for the shovel to hit something hard, which looked like a tin box filled with biscuits.

　　The two put on gloves and worked together to dig the box out of the ground. They weren't heavy, but the holes they dug weren't big, so digging them was a bit difficult.

　　Sitting in the gazebo with the boxes, they stared at the "treasure" on the table.

　　Furuhashi said with dignity.

　　"Then… are we going to open it?"

　　"Hmm!" Ogata clenched her fist.

　　Furuhashi slowly opened the box, and the things inside came into their eyes.

　　Both of them opened their eyes wide at the same time.

　　"This..."

　　Exam papers, full of test papers.

　　"Does he want us to do one last impromptu training?!" Furuhashi complained, Ogata took the test paper and looked at it, then shook her head and said, "No, this is the test paper we wrote."

　　Furuhashi picked it up, and found there were two piles of exam papers, one for each, and the questions and handwriting on them were somewhat familiar.

　　"It's really very nostalgic."

　　From what was said to be the pre-examination for junior high school students at the beginning, to rewriting the same exam paper on the last day and approaching full marks, all the exam papers in these seven days were neatly copied and stored in this box.

　　"When did Shinichi-san do such a thing..." Ogata looked at the gradually growing score on the upper right corner of the test paper, an inexplicable warmth gradually spreading in her heart.

Furuhashi looked inside the box, only to find that there were several things inside.

　　Two sheets of A3 paper, two paper protectors, and a note.

　　Including exam papers, everything in this box is made of paper?

　　"Shinichi Daimyojin has never blessed anyone, so do your best for yourself!"

　　Both of them couldn't help but complain.

　　"Writing like this will be punished by the gods?"

　　"If you say you can do your best yourself, then why did you send us guards?"

　　"And besides the good writing, everything else is so badly done, it's pretty bad!"

　　Saying so, they tucked it into their breast pockets with all the smiles on their faces, and let it rest tightly against their chests, feeling the warmth from above.

　　Furthermore, there are two certificates that are the same as certificates of achievement.

　　It's also handmade, but it looks a little better. After all, it's just a piece of paper with writing on it, so it's hard to tell whether it's beautiful or not.

　　Everything above is the same except the name of the person.

　　[Furuhashi Fumino and Ogata Rizu graduation certificate]

　　20◆◇, April ☆★, provided by partner educator – Asada Shinichi.

　　They both held graduation certificates and held them above their heads respectfully.

　　Then, the two of them slowly lowered their hands, held the certificate in front of their chests, looked at each other, and smiled slightly.

　　"Congratulations on your graduation, Ricchan."

　　"Congratulations on your graduation, Fumino."

　　Even though the two of them had yet to pass the quiz. At this moment, the two of them seemed to have been freed from their heavy shackles, and relaxed like a feather.

　　Finally, there was a piece of paper with a few short words written on it.

　　"Anyway, I have nothing to lose if I fail, so work hard on yourself. Don't forget that if the two of you fail the quiz, it will be you who will be forced to give up your goal, not me, so get nervous, you stupid geniuses!"

　　After reading it, Ogata was speechless.

　　"Didn't he just say that we shouldn't be nervous during exams?"

　　Furuhashi smiled wryly as if she knew it beforehand.

　　"Because Asada-san is still clumsy."

　　Flipping the note backwards, the two took out a pen and wrote a few words on the back, then put the note back in the box and buried the box in the hole again.

　　With the certificate and the talisman, the two of them walked out of the pavilion and walked back slowly the way they had come.

　　Next, they faced the battle they had been preparing for a week.

　　If they both fail, even if Shinichi doesn't drop out, they may be influenced by the school and find it difficult to stick to their goals.

But at this moment, there was no hesitation, no shaking.

　　They smiled as if nothing had happened, and chatted casually on the cherry blossom-strewn street.

　　"Ricchan, let's go to the family restaurant for a celebration party! I found a shop that just opened earlier, and the drink bar and sweets inside are really delicious!"

　　"Okay, what time is it? Today or tomorrow?"

　　"Let's go today! Go eat after the exam, let's celebrate early!"

　　"Is Shinichi-san free?"

　　"As an assistant, I did a little research on his travel plans beforehand. He should be free... He's free every day! He's either studying or borrowing books, I've never seen him go out to play with his classmates."

　　"It doesn't matter."

　　"Yeah, I really look forward to it~"

　　——Waiting to hear him say "good job!"

　　Only when this goal was achieved would their studies not be in vain
