chapter 13
Karma (Bella Undertone)
“Why does it take so long to register for a weight room? Time is running out.”
A weight room provided inside the academy.
As it has to be renewed every semester, today, the first and second days, was crowded with students.
Thanks to that, after waiting for almost an hour, after registering and entering the weight room, I wiped off a cold sweat.
“About an hour… Hmm, I’ll just taste it and finish it.”
Afternoon classes end around 5pm.
Among them, the time when I passed out, received treatment, and woke up was around 7 o’clock.
I ran straight to the weight room and waited for an hour.
The use of the weight room is until 10 o’clock unless there is any reason, so there is no time to wait for an hour or so.
“Anyway, I was just trying to check my current physical condition today, so it doesn’t really matter.”
My strength is B+, but my strength doesn’t come out properly because of my slender body.
At least, the SSS-class potential attenuated the penalty of his slender body, and if he had been an ordinary talent, he would have had less power than an ordinary B+.
Although I was lacking in body, I still needed to know, so I saw unexpected faces in the weight room I visited.
“Natasha?”
“Hey! You’re here- When you come, I saw the entrance once after every set~ Why are you so late?”
The first was Natasha.
A pure white sweatshirt that fits snugly to the body.
The sweatshirt with three black lines on the arm, as if imitating a famous brand on Earth, made Natasha’s beauty stand out.
It was clear that it wasn’t because of me that people who were working out hard in the weight room right now glanced at me.
“I’m registering for the first time today.”
“Ah- that’s right, did you go for a walk yesterday?”
“Yeah, it was. Have you done all your workouts?”
“Ugh- I was like that~ Heize also came, so shall we go together for an hour or so?”
“I’m fine. Then help me exercise.”
“Hey, yes! I’ll help you. Because I am the weight room senior!”
Natasha pretending to be a senior with her hands on her waist was very funny, but actually, the word “senpai” wasn’t too wrong.
There will be no problem with Natasha as a senior sportsman just by looking at the fact that those muscles, which look like they are full of fine muscles without a single fat, are compressed and compressed muscles.
“See you at lunch and see you again.”
“…Miss Bella?”
“Please feel free to call me Bella.”
“…Yes, Bella, you were there too.”
“It’s a time when even wizards need exercise.”
Natasha wasn’t the only face she knew in the weight room.
Bella Du Walpurgis.
Inside the academy, Belleline just greeted me with a smile on her face while wearing a purple sweatshirt in front of me.
It was a sweatshirt that matched well with the purple hair and eyes that resembled Walpurgis.
Bella also worked hard, so her purple hair wet with sweat was very attractive.
I saw quite a few health boys who were jealous of me as the surrounding area became a flower garden in an instant, but I didn’t pay much attention to it.
I already hated the commoners, the aristocrats, and the imperial faction, but it didn’t seem like it would make a big difference just because I hated the health boys.
“I think I need help, can I help you?”
“Um, if you’re not tired…”
“Are not you tired.”
“Then I will ask.”
“But those bracelets and anklets… I feel something familiar.”
“…the familiar feeling is right. I wear bracelets and feet that are used like sandbags…. A teacher I know gave them to me.”
“Yeah, a teacher I know…. Yes, it is. Okay, then, let’s start with the three major exercises lightly.”
I noticed it right away too.
Natasha, who seemed to know nothing as Bella immediately recognized the bracelets and anklets on her arms and ankles and nodded with a meaningful smile, was busy praising the bracelets and anklets.
“Hey! You decided to exercise properly!”
“Yeah, I got a bracelet for that.”
“That’s great – you must be a good person. Introduce me later!”
“…and someday you will find out.”
Walpurgis has always been a helper by the main character’s side, so even if I don’t introduce them, the two of them will get along on their own someday.
With that thought in mind, I headed to the place where the weights were lined up to take the three measurements.
*
“The three measurements aren’t perfect for measuring strength, so it can be basic.”
“I know there.”
“Have you ever done it?”
“….no.”
“The first thing I want to do is bench press. It starts with lying on a bench.”
The first exercise I would try was the bench press.
before laying down on the bench.
‘Can I lightly do 30 each?’
Each bracelet weighed 30 by Walpurgis.
With a total of 60 kilos, I lay down on the bench.
A long iron rod was placed in front of me, lying on a flat bench.
“Starting with an empty bar without a barbell…. is too easy.”
Even though I didn’t add any weight to the bracelet, the binbong (20kg) was too light for me.
When I saw myself repeatedly pushing and pulling lightly, Bella said that she thought it would be the case, and put the barbell in the iron bar I had put down.
“It is 50 kg. It may be a little difficult for beginners.”
“Hey! go for it!”
This time it felt a little heavy.
With Natasha’s cheers from next to me and Bella’s words that it might be difficult, I pulled out the stick.
Whoo-hook- Whoo-wook-
It cuts through the air, and the rod goes up and down with the sound of breathing and goes up and down.
After filling 20 in an instant, I put the rod down again.
thud!
“…is it easy?”
“…why do you listen better than me? Didn’t you say it’s your first time today?”
Bella, who had been in the weight room all semester, came out and looked at Bong with a bewildered face as if she had noticed something strange, but the result did not change.
“Hey! Heize too! Soon you will sound similar to me?!”
However, it was still not enough compared to Natasha.
It was a 50kg barbell that even an adult woman would find difficult to lift, but Natasha lightly lifted it and finished one set of 10.
At that sight, the embers in my heart called the desire to compete ignited wildly.
“100.”
“….exercises that are too heavy can ruin your body rather than build it up.”
“Okay, I think it’s possible. Please.”
“Hey, if you’re tired, tell me. I will assist you from behind.”
Cheokkong-
The total weight of the rod, which doubled in an instant, was 120 kg.
It was the result of adding 20 kg of the weight of the empty bar + 100 kg of the weight of the barbell.
By then the other health boys also showed interest in me.
– What, the rookie costs 120?
– Really? How many months do I only turn 50?
– Talent is real.
-But isn’t that guy who asked the princess to duel?
– Damn it, I envy you! Even a guy like that is surrounded by women and gets subsidized, but I work out with black guys!
There were some strange interests, but most of them were about the weight of the rods I lifted.
It’s like people crazy about muscles.
After receiving the attention of the seeds who were more interested in the weight of the 120kg rod in front of me than the beauty of Natasha and Bella, I pulled out the rod.
hard-
I feel my muscles twitch.
The strong muscle strength, which had only depended on talent, germinates in the muscle and makes it possible to lift a powerful weight of 120 kg.
Strength B+.
That power allowed me to lift 120 kg of bench press, my first time doing it.
After that, it was a repeat.
Whoop-hook-hook!
five times.
It’s a workout called high weight low reps, Bella said.
Bella, who was standing over my head lying down just in case something happened, scratched her cheek with a bewildered expression.
“…you are strong.”
“It’s the Knights Department.”
“Are all Knights Departments as strong as Heize?”
“Well, it probably isn’t.”
If the strength of B+ isn’t common, it won’t be all that strong.
In addition, if the condition of B+ with SSS-level talent is attached, the probability does not converge to 0, but is just 0.
There will be none other than me.
I nodded as I felt the gazes of the amazed Bella, the delighted Natasha, and the shocked Health Boys.
“I think 1RM (the maximum weight that can be lifted in one rep) is around 120kg. Shall we move on to the next one then?”
“like. You might be able to cross the 3 to 300 wall from the beginning! After all, a strong man….I crave Mr.
….let’s ignore the last gruesome words.
Hanging Natasha, who was so happy and cuddly, I started running around the weight room.
*
“Bench 120, squat 160, deadlift 160. These are the results of the first person to lift weights…I can see why your mother is interested-”
“mother? Bella, does your mother know Hayes?”
“No, my mother likes strong people, so I think if you see Heize, you’ll like-”
“Hehe, is that right? Let’s go see you later! Heize isn’t saying it because he’s my friend, it’s because he’s really awesome~”
The results of my tripod measurements were astounding. Total 440.
Considering that there is a little more leeway, there will be no problem if you hold it a little higher than that.
“Hey! Do you want to join our muscle growth club?”
“More than beauty! If you build muscle, beauty will follow!”
“If you join the muscle growth club, we will block all external pressure. Heize uh-”
Thanks to that, I got caught on the radar of muscle-crazed people, but it’s still not bad at all.
I wiped the drops of sweat as I struggled to ignore the muscle monsters screaming my name.
“I think I did it for about an hour. Shall we go back soon?”
“yes! It was fun!”
“From tomorrow, let’s exercise together.”
“Yeah, it’s better with a group than alone.”
Now that I know what my limits are, today’s goal can be said to be achievement.
You must have noticed the joy of exercise, just as I was about to go back to the dormitory for tomorrow.
“Stop.”
A boy who looked the same age in a slender, beautiful boy stood in front of us.
A voice full of dignity.
A man with blonde hair and two red eyes like burning fire, as if symbolizing the flow of royal blood.
I tilted my head and asked, because it was a hazy impression that I didn’t remember seeing much.
“….who?”
“…it’s Duke Berrys! 1st year in the Department of Magic. you and your classmate It’s disgraceful to be a classmate with you, but you can’t change that fact. That is why I propose to you.”
Duke…Duke Berrys…well, I don’t know.
The game, ‘Shinma Wars’ is a game to see beautiful female characters, not pretty boys.
Therefore, Duke Berry’s name did not remain deep.
The only male names he knew were ‘Belmont Agerion’, a professor of the Knights Department, or ‘Ren’, a senior who was two years older and the next swordsman.
The rest are either villains or male characters with a lot of weight that come out a little later.
Of course, the boy named Duke Berry in front of me was not in my memory.
but.
“Let’s fight for honor with me.”
“….Well?”
squash-
I had to change my mind the moment I saw Duke Berrys taking off his gloves and throwing them at me.
honor duel.
A duel in which the winner must grant what the winner wants, and a brutal duel in which all honor and fame will be lost if lost.
The first Duke Berry I met wasn’t a bet on me.
of course-
“Please accept the price for insulting the Imperial Princess sweetly, Heize!”
“…Ah, damn Jeonju.”
As soon as he heard the words ‘His Majesty’ and ‘Insult’ that came out of his mouth, he could understand why.
Hayes.
To be precise, the karma of the ‘ex-owner’ who had this body before I came in has now returned to me.
I thought I’d come back someday, but I never imagined it would be now.
It was a very sudden karma for me, who came to the weight room just to do some light exercise and find out the limits of my strength.
Yesterday I called Walpurgis a mistake!
* Do you like an expressionless face? Or do you like to smile a little like now? It will be reflected in the final version!
