I Became a Munchkin Who Hides His Academy Powers

5 – The narrow-eyed man and the blunt woman

“What is this… What are you doing now?”

“yes? Ah, well, then what should I do… ?”

“ah… !”

Drin, who was looking at the man with a face full of energy, belatedly recalled that due to an error in his intuition that had just occurred, he was holding his posture and discharging his energy with all his might.

She hurriedly withdrew her sword and momentum.

Somehow, when I was threatened because I was threatened, I became upset about why I was being threatened.

“Kuhm… !”

A cough that comes out of embarrassment.

“sorry. that is-“

Drin felt embarrassed trying to be honest about everything.

I have a rather special intuition, which signals that you are a great danger.

How can you say this as it is?

He was threatened with a sword, but if he heard something like that, he would think that he was making fun of himself beyond the incomprehensible.

“While chasing the dangerous person, I mistook you for the dangerous person because I felt a presence from a blind spot. I sincerely apologize.”

In the end, she mixed up a little bit of truth with a lie.

‘You’re lying… ‘

It was a harmless and necessary lie, but in this respect, Drin, who had a clear part, was shocked.

“ah. ah! Is that so? Whoa! Hey, it’s been ten years. This, I thought I had met a robber without fail.”

“Robbers without fail… ”

I even thought he was a robber.

‘I’m like a robber… ?’

Like a robber

It was Drin who was always an example or an object of admiration for someone.

She never imagined she would hear something like this in her life.

Drin was so shocked that she passed out with her mouth open, putting on an uncharacteristically sloppy expression.

It took her quite a long time to come to her senses, but she managed to continue.

“Go, robber… You thought I was a robber without fail, that’s… Really amazing…”

“Yes, I was really surprised. I wondered where such a terrifying robber could have appeared!”

“… ”

Quick.

Drin gritted his teeth and smiled benevolently.

“I apologize again for surprising you.”

“Uh-why are you coming!?”

“Ah, nothing else, to raise you up—since you fell because of me—“

“Gwa, it’s okay! You can wake up alone, so don’t come near me!”

Quick.

fast.

Drin smiled kindly.

He was a man whose foolish and arrogant attitude really pissed people off.

‘Let’s wait… ‘

It is unmistakably true that he threatened him, so he deserves to be vigilant.

Drin tried her best to understand the man’s attitude.

“By the way- you said you were chasing a dangerous person. What- what kind of danger is he?”

“ah!”

At the man’s words, Drin recalled the original purpose and explained everything to him.

I explained the assassin’s appearance and asked if I knew anything about him.

“Unfortunately, you are the first person I have met here.”

“this… ”

I missed that dangerous person.

It was because this man appeared at a time like this and obscured his intuition-

‘No, no.’

It’s not this man’s fault. lack of one’s own abilities But trying to blame it on someone else?

‘Let’s feel ashamed.’

Drin scolded himself and innocently admitted his mistake.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t be of any help with this. Anyway, if I have no other business, can I leave?”

Then the man asked cautiously.

Drin tried to answer, of course.

‘no.’

But he immediately changed his mind.

The man was still guarding himself.

His self-awareness remains the same as ‘something like a robber’.

Sending it like this was never tolerated by Drin’s wounded pride.

I had to make up for my mistakes and correct my evaluation.

Can you score points for this man who made up his mind? I wondered if there was anything like it.

Then, a question suddenly arises.

“If you don’t mind, may I ask you something?”

“yes? Ah yes, what… ”

“…”

It is a sacrifice that has always been an object of admiration for others.

She was shocked once again by the man’s open disapproval of her conversation and managed to continue talking.

“all… It’s not the name- How did you come to such a remote place-“

“Ah, that’s it. It’s a bit embarrassing to tell the truth… I, uh, lost my way… ”

Drin nodded.

How did you get lost and come to this depth?

I thought that was the answer.

“Something like that response. I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but for some reason, my heart hurts.”

“yes? ah! no! I don’t have any special intentions- uh… ah! By the way, then may I perhaps give you some directions?”

“Oh, I guess you are familiar with Arien Jiri?”

“Oh, that’s not it. I just entered Arien today too.”

“yes~? No, but what kind of directions… Ideally, you are an interesting person.”

Drin, who smiled brightly, gritted his teeth and said.

“Grud… Not to the point of getting lost. I have already grasped the geography to some extent.”

“Not to the point of getting lost? If you want me to hear… ”

“yes!? ah! no! That’s not-”

“Oops, that’s it. It is true that I am a pathetic loser.”

“Ah, uh… ”

Usually, when Drin had a conversation with someone, most of the other person’s eyes would shine and they would listen to her story.

A conversation with a man came as a very unfamiliar experience to Drin.

So he felt embarrassed, thinking that the reason the conversation continued to creak was because he had repeatedly committed disrespect because of his clumsiness.

She didn’t even know that the man was watching her reaction through her narrowed eyes as if she was having fun.

“Well, whatever. thanks for the suggestion However, I will politely decline. You don’t have to do that.”

“You don’t have to decline!”

“No, I’m not refusing… ”

“Aren’t you speculating?”

“I’m scared… ”

“What are you talking about, scary? Oh, whatever. If that’s the case, don’t worry. Whoever appears, I will protect you!”

Finally, when the story flowed in the direction he was confident in, Drin said with a triumphant face.

“No, that’s what I said was scary… that… that way… ”

“…”

“…”

“I swear on my honor! I have no intention of harming you. If you don’t believe me, you can keep my sword here.”

“Even if I had that, I think I would lose… ”

Quick.

“That-don’t do that. This is a dangerous place to go alone-“

“It might be hard to find someone more dangerous than you in this alley… ”

Quick!

Drin prayed.

Please, don’t lose your temper because of a man who is good at pissing people off with his self-righteous attitude.

***

The Rebringer I gave you.

It is a leading character who starts to get involved with the player in earnest in the middle and early half of the game, and that relationship continues until the ending point.

In other words, I don’t know much about Drin, who only took a glimpse of the early game.

However, there are some things I have heard and seen somewhere.

When I first met Drin, the first thing that came to my mind was the official setting I saw on the Whatsh*t Wiki.

[Its blunt and cold personality makes people feel like a wall. Although there are many people who respect and admire her, this is why there are few people close to her.]

‘is it?’

I’m sure you didn’t have that impression at first.

Blunt. cold

But now?

I do not know.

ah.

One thing is certain.

this person.

The taste is substantial.

Now, this person, who has become a part of me, has a good taste of teasing. To some extent, it was unbearable.

“Are you really going to follow me from such a distance… ?”

This was the reason why he was making fun of Drin by pretending to be frightened on purpose.

actually!

I don’t want to do this either.

Deliberately pretending to be scared to make the other person pay attention, and then using that to elicit a reaction.

that’s so insidious

however!

I can’t help it.

because!

It’s because that’s what the original narrow-eyed guy is.

When I created this character, I put in all sorts of attributes to make it as squinty as possible.

Those traits became an instinct.

Narrow-eyed instinct.

That sly-eyed instinct was now commanding me strongly.

Make fun of Drin!

Enjoy the sticky taste of the teasing!

It was an attractive proposal that was structurally hard to resist.

“Is there any problem?”

“There’s no reason to go that far away, is there?”

“Isn’t there any reason to stick close?”

“Keep-”

In fact, I’m thrilled that I’m having so much fun teasing Drin right now.

‘I cleaned it up for that assassin, so it’s okay if I clean it up.’

There must be a justification.

I decided to enjoy this situation to the fullest.

While guiding the way, I look at the unnatural figure from the back because I was paying attention to myself.

At the same time, he turned his attention to the window that popped up in one corner of his field of vision.

[Quest – Stop Assassins]

-Stop the assassin who is aiming for Drin Rebringer.

It was a quest that occurred when a strange guy I just ran into in a back alley looked at me and said, ‘I’ll kill you too, and kill that one too’.

‘Is this the dangerous person Drin is chasing?’

[Reward – 3P (Shop opens when reaching 10P]

Instead of giving it, it was a reward for catching that dangerous person.

‘It’s because the shop is open for point rewards.’

The heart of the possessor couldn’t help but smile at the resonance.

‘Even when I was possessed, I was at a loss as to what to do next.’

The main quest started and we arrived at Arien.

In the process, a new quest arose, and he was rewarded for solving it.

It feels like I am steadily advancing step by step.

‘I think I can do better than I thought.’

The anxiety he felt when he was possessed faded before he knew it, and confidence took its place.

“Looks like we’re almost there.”

Now, as long as you pass the academy, it will be perfect.

Organize your thoughts and focus on the conversation with Drin.

“Come to think of it, where are we going now?”

Drin said he would show me the way out of here, but he didn’t say exactly where.

“This is the road I came on.”

The moment I came out of the back alley, the sun shone down on me and Drin as if I had closed the curtains.

countless crowds.

It was probably a market street in District 4.

“uh!”

The moment we left the alley and entered the street.

Someone who was looking around spotted us and came straight over.
