Chapter 75 – 75. Actively Use Technology!
◈
A dark space.
[Last Saturday xx. The appearance of Stranger Steel Mountain has been reported. However, it is said that two students from the academy defeated this stranger.]
[Right. And one of the two cadets is said to be Rouvelt Eldra, who is famous as the golden giraffe, the heir to the Eldra family.]
[Hey, that’s really great.]
[It can be said that the future of our humanity is also very bright.]
[In some public opinion, there is also a joke saying that Mt. Kang received money from Eldra and resigned….]
“Shit!”
Steel Mountain was frowning at the press video streamed toward his cell phone.
“Damn little bastard… How dare you inflict such shame on me…!”
“Pu-huh. You became famous because you were beaten by a cadet, right?”
“What!”
Kang Kang-san heard the voice of a mature woman laughing at him.
“You want to die! Spider bitch!”
When Steel Mountain insulted her by calling her a spider bitch, the woman snorted back at her.
“Poop, you’re just getting angry because you’ve been beaten… Are you really demeaning?”
“This damn bitch…!”
When Steel Mountain radiates distorted magic and tries to approach a woman.
“Stop it. Fighting between strangers is prohibited.”
A man’s voice, which gave off a heavy feeling, echoed through the space.
“That’s right, you should listen to the leader, shouldn’t you?”
Also followed by the voice of a young boy defending the man’s words.
“Cheet!”
The steel mountain clicked her tongue at the ensuing voice and reaped her mana.
“So… What are we going to do now?
“You know me well, Leader.”
To her leader’s question, Steel Mountain answered with a raised corner of her mouth.
“Of course, I will thoroughly despair that bastard who brought me shame.
“Oh my, after going through that…”
“Lucchia.”
The man called the leader stopped the woman from making fun of her by calling her name.
“Heh. Yes, I got it~.”
“Kangcheolsan, I’ll leave it to you to find out how to repay the disgrace. Just don’t do this. Our purpose is not just sabotage…”
“Heng, I know… It’s a more spectacular ruin than destruction, right?”
“That’s right. Our master’s wish. The destruction of mankind. That is the meaning of our existence given the power of the master.”
“Don’t worry, leader. I know it well.”
As soon asheheard the word ruin, Steel Mountain smiled even more evilly as if possessed.
However, it wasn’t just Kang Cheolsan who smiled.
The corners of the mouths of the four people in the same space went up at the same time.
“…”
The existence covered in dark red was silently watching the figure.
◈
Denrai Chisaki’s impression of Rouvelt Eldra changed quickly.
At first, he is a cheeky guy with a lot of money that his father, Satoru Tenrai, won’t let him meet.
He was a shameful guy who drank the expensive liquor called Thunder Pearl with his father before he did.
However, after seeing him for the first time at the entrance ceremony, that impression has changed considerably.
‘Wow, how strong?’
Denrai Chisaki was born with a sensitive sense of smell.
And that sense of smell also helped a lot in combat.
In addition to the smell of tension and the smell of murder, it was possible to roughly judge how strong the opponent was by smell.
As soon as Chisaki’s sense of smell first met, Rouvelt identified him as a strong man.
That said, most of the cadets in this academy are strong enough to be unmatched.
At first, I was thinking of taking a little resentment out of the disgusting guy’s face.
“Let’s open a plate.”
Chisaki’s heart has changed to a vigilante desire to fight the strong.
After sparring once with a very big Ho Seung-shim, he was so happy that he had more skills than expected.
After that, as time passed, Chisaki got to know Rouvelt and became more and more friendly with him.
A strong man who is fun to fight, a priest who is easy to talk to.
Furthermore, he is a good priest who helps him become stronger and is very considerate because he is good at this and that.
Chisaki understood why her father liked Rouvelt.
The only complaint I had was that I hadn’t had a sparring match with Rouvelt, who had done his best.
I want to see Rouvelt who did his best without mercy.
Chisaki had a desire to fight such a Rouvelt once.
However, it was not an urgent desire to the extent that the desire suddenly exploded.
‘Well, if you ask me to improve my skills, I’ll accept it~.’
With such a relaxed mind, he interacted not only with Rouvelt, but also with Yume, Kagura, Elly, Rize, and Lee Si-hun, who were around Roovelt, and thought that Chisaki was living a moderately bad academy life.
In addition, like this time, at an early stage when Rouvelt directly created a D-class monster.
He even gave me a chance to face him.
There was no further dissatisfaction because Rouvelt satisfied Chisaki’s desire to fight against an appropriately strong opponent.
On the contrary, I was full of gratitude for even making a physical training plan for myself through various tests so that I could become stronger.
Personally, in Chisaki, Rouvelt was a person who could have that much favor.
And a few days after receiving the physical training menu.
A change came to Chisaki.
‘Yes?’
He was in the middle of his morning academy class.
‘Something… Does it smell good?’
It smelled good from behind.
Smells good to feel.
But it was a smell I had never smelled before.
‘What?’
Feeling suspicious, Chisaki searched the place where he smelled as soon as class was over.
But, needless to say, searching, Chisaki was able to find the exact source of the smell.
‘Priest?’
The place where the smell was most intense was Rouvelt.
If you were a normal person, you might just tilt his head or suspect that you have an odd nose.
However.
“Sniff sniff.”
Chisaki, not suspecting her own nose, went right up to Roovelt and sniffed him openly.
“… What are you doing, Chisaki?”
“Chi, Chisaki!?”
“Oh.”
At Chisaki’s reaction, Rouvelt asked a question, and the other personnel around were surprised.
“Huh? No~ I think the priest smells good for some reason~ Does it smell really good?”
“Good smell?”
“Yeah. Why?”
It was a very straightforward question.
‘For some reason, the more I smell it, the better it feels, and it feels warm.’
Chisaki instinctively senses the state of her body by sniffing it up close.
But I didn’t think it was bad.
“I didn’t even do that yesterday. Why?”
“Hmm. Did you change your perfume today?”
“Perfume? Priest, do you wear perfume? Not even a woman?”
“Nowadays, even men wear perfume. There are many men’s perfume products.”
“Oh ho ho ho ho! In the social world, there is even a discussion about what kind of perfume men wear.”
“I see….”
“The conglomerate socialite…”
“Huh~ What kind of perfume is it?”
“It’s a perfume from the brand White Rose. Did you like the smell?”
“Yeah. Something~ Umm~ I can’t tell you specifically, but it smells good. Sniff sniff.”
Chisaki brought his face close to Rouvelt again and sniffed it.
“Chisaki, please don’t smell the young boy too much. There are eyes around you.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Chisaki smiled mischievously and fell to Rouvelt.
‘It’s a white rose~ It looks like it has a nice perfume too.’
Chisaki thought it was just a small incident and went back to her seat.
However, as time passed, Chisaki realized that what she was feeling now wasn’t just a matter of smelling perfume.
The next day too.
The next day too.
Chisaki was drawn to the smell that emanated from Rouvelt.
“Sniff, sniff, it smells good today, priest~”
“Thank you.”
At first, he was a bit attracted to it, so it was enough to playfully take it once or twice.
However, as the act was repeated, Chisaki began to feel that she wanted to smell Rouvelt more.
“Sniff sniff sniff.”
And the frequency and time of sniffing Roovelt during breaks and lunch began to increase.
“Uh, uh… Chisaki?
“Huh? Ah, ah, huh? I was in charge without even realizing it?”
It was to the point that Yume, who was worse than once, carefully brought her words out.
And after hearing Yume’s dissuade, Chisaki tilted her head.
‘Come to think of it, why am I so attracted to the priest’s scent? No, is it the smell of the priest’s perfume?’
Chisaki doesn’t worry so seriously.
However, it was Chisaki who immediately asked the question that arose.
“Hey, Priest. Give me one of those white rose perfumes too.”
“Okay. Then, I’ll give you one when I come to the mansion today. Come to think of it, are you doing well with the physical fitness test menu I set you up for?”
“Sure!”
After school.
Right after Kagura’s activities in the swordsmanship club ended, she went to Rouvelt’s mansion and was doing a set physical training menu.
[START]
“Hee hee! Eh!”
A training facility in Eldraga’s mansion.
Among them, he was in the midst of long-distance obstacle running to improve his physical strength.
Not only does the floor in one room move like a conveyor belt like a giant treadmill, but a structure protrudes from the floor and serves as an appropriate obstacle to avoid or overcome.
While running on top of it, Chisaki avoids the obstacles approaching her, doing complex training to develop both agility and stamina at the same time.
And when training is over.
“You’re working hard.”
“Oh, priest!”
Rouvelt entered the training facility where Chisaki was holding perfume.
