"Lian, regarding you, you only need to supplement your knowledge a little. I believe your practical skills are fine. And as for the rest of the night..."

Jill flashed a smile befitting a homeroom teacher, "Come for tutoring?"

"……ha?!"

"Alright, alright, let's stop talking now." Jill looked out the window. "Oh dear, it's getting dark... Haven't you eaten anything yet? I'll go prepare dinner."

Enkidu looked at the wines in the display case, all of them expensive red wines. "Gil, you like to drink?"

“No, those things are just for show. No wine can compare to my divine wine,” Jill replied. “But if you like, feel free to open them.”

"I was just curious, Jill, about the room..."

“I have more than enough rooms here.” Jill slapped her forehead. “I’ll go out for a bit. The TV is over there, and there’s internet and video games here. You guys can play as much as you want… just be careful not to get addicted.”

“Because of the sudden addition of you guys, I still have empty rooms and haven’t bought bedding yet, and I also need to clear out the refrigerator.” Jill sighed. “After all, I’ve been away from here for two months, and even if the refrigerator is working perfectly, the food should be spoiling by now… I can’t exactly ask people to eat for me, I can’t bring myself to do that.”

Ren and Kusanagi looked at each other, and finally nodded in agreement with Gil.

Jill then gave a few pointers on things to be careful about, and then hurriedly left with her phone.

……

St. Freya Academy is built on an artificial island. When Jill built this artificial island, she intended to build it like a small city.

Therefore, although the college has a commercial street, the commercial street is a bit far from the college's teaching buildings.

The physical training instructor at the time arranged for students to run thirty laps between the academy and the commercial street, causing many students to groan in despair.

It takes about 30 minutes to walk from the dormitory area to the commercial area, but there are transportation options available—though those are generally only used for transporting large quantities of goods.

As for buying groceries and such, in Jill's own words, "walking around more is good for your health," so usually at most a shopping cart is provided. Shopping carts are standard equipment in every dormitory, and you can push them around whenever you want to buy something.

Jill, on the other hand, is the type of person who doesn't need a shopping cart.

After buying bedding in the shopping district, Jill casually stuffed it into the Gate of Babylon. While this was a somewhat inappropriate way to get the overworked wise king to jump back from the underworld and beat him up, carrying a large pile of bedding while shopping was indeed a bit difficult.

Jill went to the ingredients section and began selecting ingredients for tonight's dinner.

While ordering takeout is an option for him, the food...

Sometimes, it really doesn't taste as good as what you make yourself.

That skill of being proficient in cooking is quite useful.

"Next time, let Lian do this job again."

Jill tossed the last selected beef into the bag in her hand and walked towards the cashier.

In the direction of the cashier, Jill saw a figure with red hair, as beautiful as a rose.

“…” Jill raised the corners of her mouth.

I was lucky today; I ran into someone I knew as soon as I got back.

Well, I'll let that idiot know about Theresa tonight.

Jill walked up silently and patted the girl on the shoulder.

Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly grabbed Jill's wrist, attempting to subdue her.

But Gil reacted faster, casually tossing the bag up with her left hand, then using her right hand to deflect the force with a standard move, and catching the bag as it fell. She then looked at the figure with a wry smile, "So this is how you greet an old friend after so long, Himeko?"

The figure with bright red hair is Himeko Murata, the acting captain of the Hyperion and a member of the Valkyrie Assault Team that Gilles once led.

"Gill?! You're back? Didn't Theresa say this mission would take three months?" Himeko asked, looking at Gil with some surprise.

"Well, if something could actually hold me back for three months, I'd find that really unbelievable," Jill chuckled casually. "How have those two months been?"

"...What can you do? We're just having a bit of a headache dealing with some problem students right now." Himeko Murata smiled. "Want to come over for drinks and a chat tonight?"

"No, my friends and students came with me when I came back this time. I need to talk to Theresa about this tomorrow." Gil smiled wryly and declined Himeko's invitation.

In the past, he had served as Himeko's mentor, drinking with her and listening to her pour out her troubles. But this time, things might not be so good...

“Besides, those kids you brought back last time should be living with you, right? That’s not a good influence. If Siegfried finds out I’m corrupting his daughter, he might just yell ‘Heavenly Fire’ and come running up to self-destruct,” Jill shrugged and said.

Chapter Ninety-One: Who are you calling short?

"Siegfried...you mean Kiana's father, right?" Himeko looked a little surprised. "But now that you're back, does that mean I won't have to cover your shift starting tomorrow?"

Jill paused for a moment, then said, "Ha, that's true."

"Okay, let's go quickly."

Gil glanced at the shopping bag in Himeko's hand, then took it and paid for it together. "I'm not trying to be mean, but you're a teacher, so try to control yourself a little and don't drink so much."

"Then you should really tone it down and stop working overtime all the time, okay?"

"Haha, that's something I can consider. I don't want to die from overwork."

"The guy who finished half a month's worth of unreliable dean's documents in two days is not convincing at all when he says this."

"Ah, well, this is a question..." Jill chuckled wryly, "...it's a bit hard to refute."

Indeed, Jill is essentially a workaholic (probably).

That's the instinct for death from overwork (probably)!

"Do Theresa and the others know you're back?" Himeko asked as they walked out of the store.

“They don’t know yet, since I just got back and settled in,” Jill shrugged. “But I’ll probably tell Theresa I’m back tonight, and I’ll probably be back at work tomorrow.”

"Welcome, senior."

Himeko smiled and patted Gil on the shoulder, saying...

"Then please take care of me starting tomorrow, junior." Gil patted Himeko on the shoulder, then paused as he was about to turn and leave.

"I'll do my best to help you with your health later," Jill said, then walked back the way she came.

Himeko watched Gil's departing figure, shrugged, and laughed, "Not frank at all."

"Ah, it's time to go back. They should be arriving soon." Remembering something, Himeko quickly ran towards the dormitory.

……

"I'm back." Jill pushed open the dormitory door, put the shopping bag she was carrying aside, and casually threw out all her bedding and other belongings as well.

"Ah, Master, welcome back." Lian reached out and caught the bedding.

"Go tidy up the room. If you need anything, I'll take you to the shopping street tomorrow. It's getting late, let's get ready to have dinner."

Jill carried the ingredients toward the kitchen.

"...Your Majesty, is cooking alright?"

"Don't worry, Master's cooking is delicious." Lian smiled. "After all, my cooking skills were taught by Master. Master taught me more than just sword skills."

Kusanagi was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

I'm starting to panic...

Although Kusanagi didn't know how good Ren's cooking was, judging from Ren's confident demeanor, it probably wouldn't be too bad...

I hope my king is reliable...

The boy glanced at the kitchen with a slightly uneasy expression.

Although the food I cook seems to taste even worse...

……

After finishing the few documents she had to handle that day, Theresa, the headmistress of St. Freya Academy, was on her way back to her dormitory.

With light steps and a huge golden cross on her back, she walked towards her dormitory.

That cross was not some paper decoration, but a real, heavy weapon used by the Lawgiver—the "Key of God," the oath of Judah.

This petite Theresa, who looks like a young girl but is actually an old woman... no, she is also a young girl, is the user of this Divine Key and one of the S-rank Valkyries of Schicksal.

It's worth mentioning here that Theresa's residence is not far from Jill's residence, and Theresa will inevitably have to pass by Jill's residence on her way back.

Theresa once worked so hard that she was in a daze that she accidentally wandered into Jill's dorm room—and accidentally broke the door.

According to Jill's recollection, this was because the key wouldn't open the door (the keyhole was wrong!), and in a moment of drowsiness combined with the Kaslana family's inherited intellectual disability, she simply tore the door apart...

It's clear that this girl, who looks like a little girl, possesses superhuman strength that doesn't match her appearance at all; she's just not very bright sometimes.

Today, when Theresa passed by Jill's residence—

"...Huh? The lights are on inside? Is Fu Hua coming to clean so late today?" Theresa looked at the lights in the room with some surprise.

If Jill heard this, she would probably be quite surprised.

My class monitor has been coming to clean my room all this time.

With a sense of curiosity, Theresa set off towards Jill's residence.

Just as she was getting close to the dormitory, Theresa sensed an aura suddenly moving towards her, but the aura quickly disappeared.

She frowned slightly, then quickly stepped forward, took out the spare key Jill had given her, and prepared to open the door.

However, the door opened by itself before Theresa could use the key.

Standing behind the door was a beautiful person—

Theresa's gaze was instantly drawn to the girl.

Her beauty was indistinguishable from that of a woman, with long, beautiful green hair, dressed in white, and her emerald-like eyes sparkling with a hint of surprise.

"...So beautiful...No, no, who are you? Why are you here? This is the faculty dormitory of our St. Freya Academy. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter here, and this is the dormitory of a very fierce person." Although she was stunned for a moment by the stunning beauty, Theresa shook her head and immediately asked who the other person was.

“Ah, it’s alright.” Enkidu paused for a moment after hearing Theresa’s words, then shook his head with a slight chuckle. “This is my friend’s place, so it’s fine.”

What a kind child!

For a fleeting moment, Enkidu even saw in the other person the shadow of the person Otto had longed for day and night.

“Friend?” Theresa’s eyes widened as she secretly reached out to Judas behind her.

In her mind, it was like a dream for that arrogant and bad-tempered guy to have "friends".

"If you don't believe me, let him tell you himself," Enkidu smiled helplessly. "Gil, come out here for a moment! An acquaintance of yours has come to visit!"

"Is she a short, white-haired girl, a flat-chested girl with glasses, or a red-haired girl with big breasts?" Jill's voice came from the direction of the kitchen.
