chapter 16
5-1. Spirits represent people’s emotions.
Just like that, a week has already passed.
In terms of the first day of class, it’s the second week. My body was gradually adapting to life at the academy, but
[You have joined the magic club!]
..No matter how I look at it, I can’t adapt to this.
[I thought you would read romance novels in the reading club! ♡(*´ ˘ `*]
That’s a specification. I don’t want to be spoiled after meeting the wise man. How long have I been playing the game? Don’t get swayed
[Then, as a reward, I will tell you a good piece of information.]
Oh, could it be that it is related to the saintess?
[There may be people here that don’t exist in Night Heart! Are you curious? How about it? Any help? ☆ー(๑•᎑<๑]
“This is something I know.”
Today, as soon as I woke up in bed, I sighed at the floating status window.
You can’t see this. The hero next to me didn’t even look at me even though the loud heart shape was dancing on the screen. It hurts my eyes to see it often.
“What are you doing, Licht? Why are you talking to yourself all of a sudden?”
Oops, I almost forgot to say respectful words.
I shouldn’t be like this. It seems that there are too many things that shake my mind these days.
“I just did it because I was bored. Mr. Cainel, aren’t you meeting Miss Ariel?”
“I have to go out now, he wants to eat something, so I’ll go first.”
“Yes. See you in the classroom in a little while.”
In this case, I’d better get out. I don’t like interrupting a date. I’m sorry, but I’m not a sewage interfering with other people’s love lines.
After opening the door, I saw Yellowy off. A metallic clicking sound was heard.
Immediately, I took out my notebook.
“..No matter how much I search, I can’t find anything else.”
I felt uncomfortable ignoring the phrase on the status window. Just looking at Professor Beatrice, there were so many things I couldn’t predict.
Intellectual attacking fox slime? I’m glad it doesn’t appear in the newspaper.
‘Let’s find out among the clergy. First of all, she’s not a first-generation saint… This person doesn’t know what she looks like.’
You turned the page several times. Then the hand stopped.
‘Platinum wolf.’
The name of the blank that was not filled in again. He bit his lower lip.
I’m not good enough to find her whereabouts now.
“..Is it somewhere else?”
I felt dizzy in front of my eyes. Feeling dizzy, I sighed and closed the book.
Even though she was the Grand Duchess of the North, rumors did not even circulate that she was among the freshmen.
You must be blocking the attack of monsters by now. It reminded me of someone who preached settings to make my ears bleed.
“…”
I saw a transparent window floating in front of me.
There is no way the status window will tell you. Which game will kindly show you the way to the hidden ending?
You shouldn’t trust this too much, nor should you ignore it. In the game, there were NPCs that didn’t appear even through data mining.
“I should think while walking for a while.”
It’s the best way to get some fresh air and sort out your troubles. I prepared to go out with my sword.
“This is going to break soon, but when I have time, I will have it repaired.”
A cracked blade stood out.
Two bodies are not enough. Who doesn’t protect the love line instead of me?
***
I moved my steps. The time left until the morning lecture was leisurely.
I was blindly walking around the academy like that. If this happens, something will happen.
At that time, I saw a familiar face. It succeeds
“Char, do you like my spirit that much?”
“Of course! Is that the phoenix of the Aureus family?”
“I’m glad then…it’s too small.”
“What is the importance of size to a spirit? The heart is what matters.”
Two men and women sitting close together on the terrace.
A purple sparrow sat on the woman’s hand and was showing off her charms by rubbing her cheek.
‘That person…?’
I felt a sense of déjà vu for a man with purple hair.
The player’s rival in .
It was Nex Aureus.
Among users, it was often called a purple fox rather than a nickname called Phoenix.
His spirit was strong, and his true intentions were unknown. Because he is good at deceiving people and is good at lying.
He was a unique character among the characters.
Originally, he would be a playboy. The two men and women we are seeing now are like lovers, pouring sesame seeds.
Am I looking at something stupid?
“No lecture today? Nex?”
“We canceled our class to see Shar. It’s a correction period, so you can skip a bit.”
“..If you do, I will scold you. Eight.”
“Ugh, how come the priest has such hot hands!”
Every time that guy I know appeared, it was a truck driven by a woman. So when she thought of the love line, she put it aside.
He looked so strange as he gleefully gulped down a drink while being slapped on the back by a woman.
But wait, what?
‘A priest.’
No matter how you look at it, he’s a vampire. Red eyes, pointed ears, and long black hair. Three clearly showed the characteristics of the race.
Well, there is also a wolf ear healer. Doesn’t matter.
“Char, actually today is a public lecture. The professor is on a business trip.”
“You are really good at lying. It’s a bad habit.”
“Sorry. So please don’t use the divine power fist.”
“I’ll think about it.”
In addition, it seems that Casanova calls her by her nickname. Every time I say the word ‘Shar’, my voice tickles. I’m not the kind of kid who always memorizes girls’ names.
‘Hmph, bitch. What’s your business?’
The tone still lingers in my head. Are you the same person? It’s so different. The voice actor also acts in a very cold tone.
I crossed my arms. He put his hand to his mouth. I think I saw something in the list I made a note of earlier.
‘Ah, this can’t be.’
The message I saw this morning came to my mind again. Because he wasn’t in Night Heart.
‘If my memory is correct…’
That nun may be the cause of Nex Aureus’ prodigal son.
But my intelligence should be at a disadvantage. First, I saw Kainel and Ariel in the classroom, and now I decided to watch them.
I believe you will probably do well without me. It was sad that there was no one to really help me at times like this. I sat down next to him at a distance that I could not be seen.
‘You can see the status window right in front of you, and you can see the happy ending of the saintess only when the couple is connected!’
Who would believe this? I’m glad I didn’t get treated like crazy. Laughter came out.
“Ah, Nex. I have something to tell you.”
“What is it? Char.”
“My younger brother, whom I have been close to since childhood, has just entered the academy!”
“So, are you a freshman? It’s been a long time since I heard culture, so I won’t be able to meet you?”
Nex crossed her legs. He had a suspicious look on his face, as if he was guessing something.
“What a cute little boy! He’s a famous person you should know.”
“What is your name?”
“Maybe use the pseudonym Mardol? They wear unusual costumes, so it’s easy to recognize them.”
“Hmm, then isn’t it rather difficult to find?”
Beside me, a woman named Shar smiled brightly.
‘If it’s a pseudonym…’
Ugh, was it about the crown prince? This guy just keeps popping out. Even with the producer’s favoritism, I received too much.
“Is it him? That black helmet? I’ve been seeing you here for a while.”
“No, he is different. He says he doesn’t write anything stupid like that.”
What’s wrong with the black knight? I narrowed my brows in the helmet.
Nex is different too, he turned on the girdle he was looking at.
“I am a student wearing glass armor.”
“Aha, then that’s him. I think I may have seen it when I was younger. Through the family head.”
“I was such a bright kid when I was little..”
“That’s right. It’s been 10 years.”
Two people with sad expressions as if lost in memories.
After seeing that scene, I became in a serious situation.
‘Let’s come up with a way to deviate from the route somehow.’
If I get involved more here, I’ll be flagged. Eavesdropping on the main character’s past?
This is the crown prince route unconditionally. The producer noticed.
‘You are the only one who understands me! Young lady!’
I thought of Lupus who confessed to the heroine and attacked him.
That’s terrible. It is still too early to give up the saintess route. No one else is on my mind
I wonder if the Platinum Wolf has a crush on someone else. I intend to do my best for her happiness.
Not everyone who takes the route is successful in dating. Emotions can’t be touched.
Because love is like that.
I don’t think everyone will fall for you if you follow the story of the game as it is.
Just because you know what you like doesn’t mean you can succeed in confessing. I know that even though I’ve never dated in real life.
I learned a little from the book that the nameless saintess likes.
[..Please don’t spread rumors that I read romance novels. Knight.]
This is the reason why I hate male leads in harem movies where the screws are loose. There is probability, but there is no perseverance.
If you want to win love, you have to at least try.
I leaned back on the chair. Fatigue was felt.
“Excuse me.. Guest. May I take your order?”
“Oh, yes.”
The waitress approached me with her eyes closed. You can’t see it with a helmet on.
Okay. Decided.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
Root is root.
“Are there any ‘drinks that turn from gray to gold’ here?”
“Guest? We don’t sell those things.”
“Sorry. It’s a tricky material, though.”
The employee made a fierce expression as if he had heard something strange.
“I thought that a phoenix egg that did not wake up was quite common.”
It didn’t matter. In the first place, the goal was somewhere else, so that was what I said.
“..What?”
It worked. In disbelief, the fox’s smile disappeared from his face. If you know the preference options, this is good.
“Nex? What’s wrong?”
“Wait, Chartines. I’ll go over there.”
Nex Aureus rose from his seat and headed towards me. The sound of footsteps accelerating.
You wouldn’t have heard of this outside the family.
It is a way to give back to the current head of the household, Asha Aureus.
‘Asha Aureus’s side story DLC where she realizes love and changes her hair color.’
Because it’s a secret that ordinary people don’t know. The fact that one of the 10 girls had a constitution that prevented the spirit from waking up.
A story from the distant past in which an ashen-haired girl is in danger of family collapse due to a phoenix that does not wake up, and the player saves it.
If you progress through the additional content that raises your favorability, her hair will change to golden hair strand by strand, and eventually she will learn the spirit like Asha Aureus at the time of the main story.
Honestly, to me, a saintess, it looked like a black beef package. The experience of reading reviews is so helpful.
Kikkik, the chair in front of me was pushed.
“Heung, Cheonmin. Are you out of your mind? If it’s my curse, I’d rather forgive you.”
“Let’s say I only went half way. Young master.”
“..Do you know what happens when you gossip about 10 girls? Man of humble birth? I dare to regret such a thing in front of the eldest son of the Aureus family….”
Unlike a moment ago, his tone had changed to the one I used to know.
‘You know that the academy doesn’t care about status, but I made a mistake because I was in a hurry.’
Now he even acts. I’m sorry but I can’t fool you. I know your opponent very well because it’s a Character. Nex’s eyebrows kept quivering.
“It deserves to be heard, right? To wake up the spirit by forcibly seizing the marriage contract, even though he didn’t.”
I laughed bitterly inside the helmet. Because I think there is no romance in an arranged marriage. Of course, it comes from the heart. There is nothing to be caught.
“Isn’t the living sun scary? You went crazy, yes.”
“Don’t you think so too?”
“What, what? Dare..”
“Let’s be honest. The one who said he wouldn’t accept any property from his family.”
I remember him as an idiot telling the harem members to get out of here because he doesn’t follow money.
In the end, I stuck with him based on his looks and spirits.
‘It seemed like a character with a background in many ways.’
I know Nex’s life was ruined because the marriage was also pushed by the family. It was also a long story in the setting book.
“How did you do that… no, wait a minute. What are you?”
“There is a way to know a little bit. Don’t you know if it’s ten steps?”
You can understand this with your keen eyes. Just make them mistaken for being involved with the wise man. Even if they get caught, there is a way to say that they are Drake’s students.
Then he hid his threatening attitude and fell into trouble.
“.. Junior. Just said that. Are you serious?”
The passionate aristocratic figure from earlier had disappeared, and the tone of voice I hadn’t known had returned. Since I am at the academy, are you trying to match me by taking pictures of my juniors?
‘I can’t let my guard down, this person.’
As expected, he is an intelligent cat. If I didn’t know, I would have been drunk. It’s like a rival that gets in trouble if you answer incorrectly. I wish Kynell was just like the Nex Van.
“Yes, of course I mean it.”
“hahahaha.”
Hearing the answer, Nex’s expression hardened for a moment, and then laughter began to spread.
“..You hate our head too! This is the first time I’ve seen it.”
“I personally don’t like it.”
“Yes, there must be someone like this. It’s good to have a spirit. Junior.”
The fox smiled broadly as if meeting a comrade.
As if the waitress didn’t care, he pushed his face right in front of my nose as he talked. The pattern of the golden phoenix was reflected and shimmered.
With this, the purple phoenix will help you escape the root.
Thank you, Mr. Harem Grinder.
***
. In a place in an alley of the academy, like Licht,
There were three figures.
“So, why is Mardol here?”
“I don’t even know…”
The blonde warrior and the red wizard looked at the glass knight.
“A regular.”
She had already eaten several plates and was making a mumbling noise at the Kainels.
I could feel the movement inside the helmet.
The hero tried to ignore it and then spoke to his childhood friend.
“..Ariel, what are you going to eat?”
“I just need something sweet.. Huh? Are you out of candy?”
“Here, stay.”
Then she handed the wizard some candies. Just like the Black Knight, Mardol has a defensive face.
“Uh.. Thank you. Mardol. Do you like sweets too?”
“Yes. Very.”
“It’s me! Can you recommend anything?”
“With this, strawberry cake.”
As expected, getting closer through food means getting closer.
“I want to try strawberry cake too..”
“For dessert, eat.”
“Then what should I eat for breakfast?”
“Sandwiches. I will recommend it.”
Already Mardol was sticking to her and talking about different kinds of desserts. Ariel looked happy, so Kynell just watched.
“Wow, this is really cute. It’s a bear-shaped sandwich!”
“..Cute.”
“But it’s too expensive…”
“I’ll buy you one.”
“Really…? But let’s serve half and half.. Let’s eat together! Mardol!”
“Yes.”
After purchasing a teddy bear sandwich, the two girls split it in half. It was quite a lot for one person to eat.
“Oh, this is really good. Thanks!”
“Right.”
Ariel munching his food like a happy squirrel. A glass wall stood beside it.
“But why do you cover it with a glass? Just like Richt.”
“If you reveal it, you weaken it.”
“I see..”
Asked the red cat, looking at Mardol, who hides her face even when she eats something with herself.
After hearing her words, she immediately agreed. I thought there must be a secret that can’t be told.
‘Where did I see this… Ah.’
A feeling caught in a corner of the heart. The sight felt familiar to Cainell.
“Is it etiquette for a driver to give candy to people? That… Mardol?”
She wrapped her strawberry cake, which Ariel wanted to try, and Kynell sat down too.
A person who couldn’t come to this place right now.
She remembered her own roommate, the Black Knight.
“No..?”
“What are you talking about? Kai?”
Two females looked at Kynell as if they didn’t know why.
“No. I guess it was my mood.”
He shook his head.
It’s a secret between men, so we decided to keep it.
‘It could be because of Mardol that Licht had the candy.’
Even if she thought to herself, she was too forced. No matter how much she doesn’t notice herself, it won’t be like that.
Yellow also bought a crab sandwich and ate it.
