chapter 90
90 – Angry NPC. (One)
“No, what is that…”
“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
“No! Ragni is not at fault! That lady was strange!!”
Ragni bowed his head towards me, and Ira defended Ragni and attacked him fiercely.
Let me briefly explain the current situation.
As I was wondering what to do with the children who had become so weak after imprisoning the bald bastard who had touched the children and his gang, Ray, who had followed me, paid a large fee to a wizard in the guild capable of healing magic, signed a secrecy contract, and took all the children. treated. Ray apologized for not listening to me at first, but I praised her for saving her life thanks to her quick judgment.
He then asked the wizard to keep the children there in exchange for more money in the future, and he readily accepted.
For a moment, I felt like my eyes had changed to a can of currency, but I thought that if it was a person who could not live off of money, I could trust him, so I signed a contract. I even remembered on the way, that the man was definitely [Naty]’s party-ready NPC.
A supporter who even has a pretty good personality. So, after trusting and leaving it to us. Ray, I, and Gor, who had cleaned up on our own, returned to our house we had rented from Natty.
The sun was already starting to set, and Ira and Ragni were probably cleaning the house, so when I went outside and bought dinner tonight, including skewers, Ira and Ragni, who sat on a chair with their foreheads propped up as if exhausted, told her that they had a hard time. Ira, who was giving me a massage on the shoulder, wasn’t cleaning the house.
And Ragni explained to me what happened at the academy today, and it was pretty horrifying.
no way. For Ragni and Ira, who thought it would be okay, if not at all, that something like that happened, is the real world crazy, or have I been too complacent?
“Ragni, no matter how you hear it, it’s not your fault. Don’t apologize like that, and don’t beat yourself up too much.”
“No. I should’ve done better, if I’m at a disadvantage in exams or interviews because of me. I really…”
“No! Ragni, I don’t think Ragni did anything wrong!! A crazy person who threatens students and guardians during interviews! If I were there, he would have pulled out the same sword!!”
[It looks like there is trash inside the academy. Master, should I go and clean it up?]
I continued to pat her on the back after seeing that Ragni was worried that Ira would be disadvantaged because of him, and Ray continued to defend her saying that it was not her fault.
Not even blaming Gorho Ragni, he was only thinking about killing his opponent.
Arthur. If Ragni is at a level where he can’t move because he’s under pressure, I don’t know if it’s a level you’ll win or not. Maybe you can’t win?
Plus, unlike usual, Ira is sitting on Ragni’s leg and hugging her. The fact that her complexion does not improve even after doing this is quite serious.
“Relax. I have to go to the [Spirit Country], but you and Ray. You haven’t forgotten that Ira is entrusted to Gor, right?”
“…sorry.”
“No. I’m not sorry, you are the brain. You choose the protection. You rely on Ray for the force. No one here thinks that your judgment and actions are wrong. Besides, if you’re really worried about Ira’s admission, now is the time. Shouldn’t I be watching Ira’s studies?”
“…That’s right.”
“Yeah! I like the study Ragni teaches me!”
“Okay, okay. First of all, clean up first. Start studying right away…”
“No. First of all, let’s start with a meal, and clean up today as much as a room for each person to sleep in, and let’s clean up tomorrow.”
“Yes! I’ll prepare the meal! Gor, help!”
I just put the meal I bought into a bowl, but Ray quickly started preparing the meal with Gor. Ragni patted his cheek as if trying to come to his senses, then stroked the head of Ira, who was comforting him by hugging him.
Looking at everyone like that, I went back to what Ragni had said, and immediately came up with a not-so-good answer.
‘…No matter how you think about it, that’s the dean.’
ep.3 [Naity, Land of Knowledge] Of course, deus ex machina exists here too.
And the red-haired middle-aged woman with a vicious personality that Ragni met.
I think she is. Probably the dean.
‘…Deus Ex Machina here must have been just cleaning up after the vice principal’s death, right?’
Here, the route where the player, the protagonist, and the dean meet occurs while chasing the vice principal. Even that doesn’t have much to do with it.
The reason is simple, because what happened here was committed by the vice principal after gaining the dean’s trust for a long time. At the end, after seeing the undeniable evidence presented by the protagonist and the player, the Dean ends up properly organizing the case for the protagonist and the player who killed him.
Clearly there isn’t even a fight. It really must have been a character for convenience and development with no special purpose. A guy like that unleashes a level of magical power that overwhelms Ragni, and gave Ira a pressure interview? why?
‘…I’d like to think that’s not the case.’
Miho was moved by Gor early in the morning. She still hasn’t opened her eyes and is asleep in the bed room on the second floor of the building we rented.
perhaps. Is the narrative pulling in this direction because I started taking that woman around and attacking the human traffickers and the gang of school principals, which are part of the regular story?
I decided that I had started to progress the protagonist’s or player’s quest? But who? The world?
Or, is it someone who reincarnated me? Something like God? Does your head really hurt? and.
– Pudeuk.
‘…no. Just hold on for now. It was just a threat. For now, bear with it for now.’
I shouldn’t act according to my temper. Ira blocked Ragni from entering the school, and Ragni suffered humiliation and endured it.
Yeah, the person I want to upset the most right now is not me.
“Jack! The meal is ready, but aren’t you eating?”
“Brother! Wake up! What are you thinking?!”
“Hey, are you worried about what I did?”
“Uh, huh? Already? No, Ragni, that’s not it.”
“Already? Jack, 20 minutes went by without you thinking that to yourself?”
yes? No, damn I thought I sorted things out pretty quickly?
Also, as if the chambers of time and spirit were turned upside down, the world passed quickly. I shyly scratched my head, apologized to everyone who was waiting for me, and ate together.
Naturally, the skewers and meals I bought were all cold.

“Sniff!! Sniff! Sniff! Sniff!”
“Uh, Miho unnie woke up!
It’s not like he was hit on the head, but when I see Miho, who is still behaving like a dog, comes down from the second floor, straightens up like an animal, jumps at Ira and starts licking it, I smile bitterly.
“You woke up this late at night?”
[There was nothing wrong with his body, and his HP was restored. Rather, it was strange that I hadn’t opened my eyes yet.]
Gor analyzes it sharply and, after tearing her away from Ira, immediately wipes Ira’s drool-soaked face with a handkerchief.
“Hey. Miho, are you in any pain?”
“bruise!”
“It doesn’t hurt! Everything looks better!”
“But, shall we go see the doctor tomorrow? I’ve been asleep all day, so maybe there’s something wrong with my head?”
“It’s the same as before and now, and you look healthy, so let’s not work hard on useless things.”
“Ragni is always cold to Miho.”
“Look at you forcibly rubbing your chest and stroking the groin. I’m really putting up with it a lot.”
After seeing Miho rushing at Ira, Ragni trembles by grabbing himself.
Perhaps the memories of that day still remain as scars. Well, for now, even Miho has returned. I’ll have to set my schedule appropriately for tomorrow.
“ray.”
“yes.”
“Tomorrow, take Ira, Gor, and Miho to the church. Use [Cure] on Miho to bring her back to normal, and if there’s no problem there, give her money so she can go back to Igram alone.”
“Eh? Is that the end?”
“Huh? What more?”
“Oh no! Got it!”
When I look at Lay, who reacted strangely to herself, and I tilt my head, she smiles and talks to Ira about tomorrow’s schedule.
Ira doesn’t look sad because she thinks she might break up with her tomorrow, but rather rejoices because she thinks she’s getting better now.
“We’ve been traveling together for quite a while, but I guess you didn’t listen enough? Are you going to send it off without saying goodbye?”
“Why are you saying hello? They hate me too, and you hate that one too. It’s better to break up cleanly here. And Ragni.”
“huh?”
“You act with me tomorrow. I need your help.”
“okay.”
After that conversation, we went back to our respective bedrooms, cleaned up properly, and went to bed.
Naturally, Miho, who had been sleeping until just now, thought he wouldn’t fall asleep right away, but…
“…Crazy. You can sleep all day and sleep again?”
Is this crazy beastman actually like a real cat?
She followed me with Ira as if it was natural for her to climb onto my stomach, curl up and fall asleep right away, and after stroking her hair like that, Ira immediately fell asleep as if fainting.
Whew. I can’t help it. Let’s wait until today.
I roughly stroked the hair of the white tiger woman who was singing Golgolsong above me and then closed my eyes.

Early morning before sunrise.
After pushing Miho off the boat, before Ira even got up, I got out of the house and carried Ragni on my back.
“Ugh, it’s cold in the morning…”
“Don’t be angry. It’s annoying.”
“Uh. It’s not a bad thing, it’s a real morning sour.”
This woman who rubs her entire body on her back and even rubs her face against the scruff of my neck says that this is not Angtal.
‘I’m going crazy, the feeling of touching my back has become softer.’
“Sueueup. Haaa.”
“…don’t smell it.”
“It smells good…”
“What’s good about it. I just washed my hair in the morning.”
“Ehehehehe.”
Taking Ragni, the regular driver, I arrived at one of the hideouts that sheltered the children yesterday.
– Knock.
[Who show.]
“gray.”
– Clap.
When I spit out the passphrase in the order set yesterday, the iron door opens immediately, and I see the gold-level adventurer man, a party-friendly NPC I left the children with yesterday, looking at me and raising his lips.
Why are you laughing all of a sudden?
“I am. I was thinking about it yesterday too, how many women do you have?”
“…Now we’re seeing each other for the second time, so let’s not talk about that.”
Why are you suddenly hitting the bone? Embarrassing people.
I looked in the direction where the children were, in case I heard them. The boys who woke up quickly were somehow looking at me and their eyes were shining.
