Chapter 23 – 22. Fix
For over two weeks, Aris cared for Arthur with utmost sincerity to treat him.
Thanks to this, Arthur lived a happy life and relieved a lot of stress, and was able to return to his original state.
When Arthur woke up in the morning, she remembered all the things she had done and said, and she felt ashamed and wanted to disappear.
When I looked next to her, I saw Aris still sleeping, and her own dark history began to come to mind.
-Aris!! Carry me.
-I want to eat meat. Will you buy it for me.?
-Quickly give me a good morning kiss!
-Say I love you 100 times every day!
-Ugh~ You don’t know this either? You’re such an idiot, Aris!!
Countless memories continued to assault Arthur’s psyche. But this was cute. The terrible thing is.
-Aris? I prepared dinner tonight! Ta-da!
-Why is there nothing? It’s here! Tonight’s menu is ‘me’♡
-Actually, it’s a joke! I’m the only one who gets tired when I do it, so why do I do it?
-What is that expression… Did you expect it? Aris is so innocent hehe!! Fool, fool!
Arthur still couldn’t forget the expression Aris made at that time.
“… “
‘This is just a mental illness.’
Arthur cooled his head and thought calmly. This can’t be real… Well, just thinking about cancer, I’m sure it was a dream! I’m not that childish or stupid!
But the reality was harsh. Because I heard the words of Aris, who woke up at Arthur’s presence.
“Yes.? You woke up early today. My baby? What do you want to do today?”
At Aris’ words, Arthur’s mentality began to break down again.
“Kyaaaaa!!! “What kind of way of talking is that!!”
Aris tilted her head at Arthur’s reaction.
“What’s wrong… You asked me to call you this.”
“No!! There’s no way I did that!! Get out now! Get out! “Get out of my room!!!!”
Get out quickly, Aris! Please… I feel like I’m going to die of embarrassment…
In the end, Arthur forced Aris out in the morning and was left alone in her room.
As Arthur looked around in the room left behind, he saw a bag of medicine on the desk.
“Is this…?”
Anyone can see that it’s a medicine bag! Why did I ever think this was a nutritional supplement? Have I really lost my mind?
“… “
Yes, people can make mistakes in life! I guess I’ve been crazy for a while, but I’m sure! So I guess I’ll just have to pretend I lost my memory.
Arthur nodded at her and opened the door again.
“Arthur.?”
When I opened the door, I saw Aris standing in a restless state.
“Aris.? “I think I lost my memory.”
Aris made an absurd expression at Arthur’s words.
“Huh? Then, the thing that was held by me like a baby last night-“
ㅡPaaddeuk.
“You said you don’t remember, Aris?”
As Arthur gritted his teeth, Aris noticed that her spirit had returned to normal.
“I see. I understand.”
Arthur is back to normal! It’s been really hard so far…
However, although it was good that it was back to normal, it was a bit unpleasant to see Arthur insisting that he didn’t remember anything after putting him through a hard time, so he decided to tease him a little.
“Then maybe you don’t remember that either.?”
“A few days ago, you took off all your clothes for dinner and laid them on the table.”
At her own words, Arthur quickly reached out and covered her mouth.
And Arthur smiled at her and began to whisper in her own ear.
“Do you really want to see me get angry?”
Arthur thought to himself. If Aris reveals her dark history once more, she will become a devil.
Aris also felt both excitement and fear as if she was risking her life, and she wondered how Arthur would react if she teased him more, but she didn’t have the confidence to handle it, so she decided to stop for now. 〉
…
Aris told the truth about everything she had heard from her doctor.
“. I think it’s definitely true…”
Originally, she had completely given up on using magic. She couldn’t feel mana and had only a small amount of it, but Fabian’s method definitely seemed to work, so it came to her like a ray of hope.
Rather, I think her shock was greater because she did that. Of course, she will no longer be as disappointed as she was last time, because she now knows that nothing will work.
“So, if you’re too stressed, you have to let me know.”
“Yeah…”
This incident made Arthur reflect on himself.
She thought she had let go of her lingering feelings about using magic, but in reality, it was festering inside her.
Okay, so what can she see before her eyes? Let’s just pretend she’s cursed and can’t do magic!
Feeling more at ease, Arthur lay down on the bed again.
“Arthur, I’ll go to class and see you later.”
“?”
Arthur’s body stiffened at Aris’ words.
Now that I think about it, how have you been doing in class? I don’t remember anything…
“Aris? How did I do in class.?”
“I solved everything, attendance will be no problem!”
An ominous thought kept coming to my mind at Aris’ words.
“No, then I didn’t go to class?”
Aris looked dumbfounded at Arthur’s words.
“Of course, what kind of class is this? Are you kidding?”
As her hands and feet began to tremble, Arthur’s eyes turned to her calendar.
Next week is midterm exams!! Well, now is not the time. From today onwards, except when I sleep, all I have to do is study!!
“Aris? There’s an exam next week, so I guess I’ll just have to study. “Let’s eat separately for a while.”
After saying only that, Arthur quickly left the room and ran to the classroom.
Aris, left alone in her room, looked at the door through which Arthur left.
“You always get perfect scores anyway…”
…
When she arrived at the classroom, she saw the back of Fabian, who had already arrived and was sitting down.
“Arthur? “It’s been a while.”
“You said you were sick, but you seem to be getting better now?”
Fabian, who did not know the exact condition of Arthur, only knew that Arthur was sick, and Fabian’s reaction made Arthur feel at ease.
Fortunately, you didn’t know about my condition. I guess Aris did something about this too?
“Yes… I’ve been suffering from a terrible cold for a while…”
“I’m sorry to say this, but can you tell me how far the progress has progressed?”
Fabian willingly told Arthur, and he told him about what had happened in class.
Arthur’s face began to brighten as he listened to Fabian’s story.
Fortunately… I already know this much, so there shouldn’t be a problem with following along, but I wonder if there’s even a practical evaluation method out there?
Arthur, who was curious, immediately asked Fabian.
“Professor Adele told me that the other day, and he said he would catch virtual monsters with educational magic tools.”
“He said that when you catch a monster there, it evaluates what kind of magic you used and how you used it… He said that even if you just catch it, you will be given a basic score.”
Arthur was relieved by Fabian’s answer.
Phew. Then I guess I can get points just by catching it with a sword? Thank goodness.
While I was thinking about the test, I saw Professor Serena entering the classroom.
The professor began class without saying anything, and Arthur’s daily life returned to normal.
…
“So there’s nothing to study about handwriting?”
“Yes, I already know all of this…”
Arthur, who had studied all the material he had missed for several weeks in two days, began to bother Aris, saying he was bored.
“Should we just go on a date?”
Arthur, who sat next to her, began to seduce Aris.
“No, I have a lot to study too. I heard there is a written exam for the engineering department too?”
“It’s not that big of a deal when I look at it, but if I look at it the day before, I’ll be able to memorize it all.”
Aris looked at Arthur with a dumbfounded expression.
Are you serious, Arthur? You memorized this thick book the day before…?
But when Aris saw the look in Arthur’s eyes, she knew that Arthur’s words were sincere.
“Hehe… Is that something that only you can do?”
Arthur begins to look like he doesn’t understand Aris’ words.
“Why can’t you do that? I told you that you should read books sometimes, it’s really frustrating, it’s frustrating!!”
Aris felt dizzy as she started pounding her chest and screaming.
Let’s be patient… If you just don’t pay attention, it will play on its own…
Next to her, Arthur continued to nag, but Aris gritted her teeth and ignored it.
What… Aris, are you saying you’re going to ignore me now? I play well by myself!
In the end, Arthur got angry and left Aris in her library.
After leaving her library, Arthur thought about how to spend her time, but no ideas came to mind.
… Okay, it’s been a while since I decided to exercise.
After making his decision, Arthur headed to the knight department’s training center.
Since there were no restrictions on using the facilities of other departments at the academy, there were no major problems.
When Arthur arrived, he looked around her.
“Oh! It’s definitely spacious and nice.”
Do other students have outside classes? There’s no one else… Well, if there’s no one else, I’m comfortable and good.
Arthur took out the blunt iron sword from the wall and approached the training doll.
“Uh? This is…”
But it was no ordinary doll, it was a doll with a button attached to the back of her head. She read the writing on the side and saw that it was a golem for combat practice.
Golem for combat practice…? So can it even move? With this, I might be able to get stronger quickly!
Arthur, who happened to be bored, immediately pressed the button and moved the golem.
“Please select a level of difficulty.”
“There are low, intermediate, and advanced levels of difficulty.”
The mechanical voice of the golem was heard, and Arthur decided to try the lower level first.
“Make it a lower level.”
Upon hearing Arthur’s words, the golem’s eyes glowed green, and she raised her wooden sword and took a fighting stance.
Oh? It’s a standard technique. Would it be like cutting a bell at this distance?
As Arthur expected, the golem came forward and swung a bell slash, and Arthur, who easily dodged the golem’s attack due to its obvious movement, swung his sword and attacked its head.
ㅡTung!
However, despite Arthur’s attack, the golem remained unharmed, and instead began to counterattack Arthur.
“Why is it so hard.”
As Arthur continued to dodge attacks and hit his head, the golem was finally seen to stop working.
“Whoa… It stopped when I hit my head. “Am I that weak?”
Arthur, who was still not satisfied, wiped away the sweat and set the golem’s difficulty level to intermediate.
The golem’s eyes began to glow blue, and it showed unusual attacks unlike before.
“Pfft!”
ㅡPuck!
In the end, there were several attacks, but Arthur, who was hit by a surprise punch from the golem, eventually collapsed in pain.
“Ugh… This is no match for me…”
Isn’t there a huge difference in difficulty between intermediate and low levels? From speed to power, there is no comparison.
Of course, the lower class was much faster and stronger than Arthur, but he was able to close the gap to some extent with his reaction speed.
However, even though the intermediate level was fast, it was too fast and the strength was stronger, so when an attack came that could not be avoided with speed, it was necessary to block, but a vicious cycle occurred in which the strength was pushed with one hand and the posture collapsed, and this piled up and inevitably led to defeat.
Arthur, who fell, got up again and pressed the golem’s button.
“I’m sure I’ll win today!”
But how do you win.?
But Arthur had no plan, and the golem’s merciless attack began again.
“Ugh!! Now, just a moment!!”
In the end, there were only more bruises on Arthur’s body.
