Chapter 1121 – 1121. Magic School Shutra (7)
Blank check.
A magical paper known to be able to obtain a thousand gold with just a few strokes of a pen.
But don’t be mistaken.
A blank check is a piece of paper that grants magic to the person who gives it, rather than to the person who receives it.
If you write a small amount, you can accept the check. If you write a high amount, you can tear up the check.
What if the person who received the blank check gets angry and spreads a rumor, causing problems with the credit of the person who gave the blank check?
No need to worry about that.
This is because people’s sympathy focuses on which of the two is more selfish than on trust.
A person who acknowledged the other party and handed over a blank check, but stopped the transaction because the amount was too high.
A person who receives the other person’s approval, enters an absurd amount, and even starts rumors.
Who will appear more selfish in the eyes of people? There will be no need to judge.
The same goes for wishes.
There is no force, and if you even write down an absurd wish in a wish given just for fun… ?
All you have to do is tear it up on the spot.
The person who made the wish would be embarrassed by the fact that he had made an empty wish, so he would not be able to spread the fact to those around him.
Even if rumors spread, it wouldn’t be a big problem.
People’s sympathy will be directed to the person who grants the wish.
Wishes also have similar properties to a blank check.
In other words, Lewis who makes a wish… It is ‘Eul’ who has to pay attention to Ariel’s wishes.
And there is one more fatal problem with wishes.
“That… My wish is… Senior… I like you. “Please go out with me.”
It means that you put your desires in your wishes without even realizing it.
A person who grants a wish faces that desire even if he does not want it.
And the feelings of accepting that desire are different depending on the person.
As soon as Ariel caught a glimpse of Louis’ desire…
“… “What?”
She began to draw an unpleasant expression that she had never shown before.
Louis is embarrassed by Ariel’s expression.
“Uh… That is… Senior… No, Chairman… I like the chairman…”
I looked at Louise in a spirited state and saw her burst into laughter.
(Wow… It’s really true~)
Actually, I was expecting it.
If it were Lewis, he would make a wish like that.
Rather, I felt fortunate that it was a purified version.
But Ariel’s reaction was slightly different from what I expected.
(The response is stronger than expected?)
If it were the Ariel I knew, I thought she would calmly reject Louise’s confession.
But the Ariel I see before my eyes right now is…
“Ha… She kept asking me to put it in the bet… “Did you mean to make that wish?”
“It’s not the council, the president, anything like that…” .”
“It’s not like that, but you made a wish?”
“Ugh…”
She was revealing her discomfort without any purification.
As I watched Ariel’s displeased expression, I began to guess the reason.
(Is it because I was drunk? No, it could be because of Edgar Horwitz…)
From my perspective, it’s better for Ariel to hit an iron wall like that than to hit a wall clumsily.
In order to be considerate of the other person, she clumsily hits the wall because it looks like she has feelings.
But I wanted to know the exact reason.
The Ariel I know, even if she is rude, she is somewhat considerate to others.
It was the same when he got angry at Edgar Horwitz earlier.
Ariel did not lose her smile despite Edgar Horwitz’s insulting remarks and tried to keep her mood alive.
The reason she showed her molars and became angry was not because of her own insult.
It was because of her insult to me.
But what about Lewis’s confession?
(Did the confession itself make you feel bad?)
I wanted to know exactly what Ariel’s vice was.
That way, I won’t make any mistakes.
I carefully observed the conversation between the two people.
Louis could no longer bear the sight of Ariel spewing out unpleasant venom without purification and began to respond with an equally unpleasant expression.
“My confession… Did you feel that bad? Chairman… ?”
It seemed like she couldn’t control her emotions due to her usual pride and intoxication.
Ariel sighed at Louise’s expression and began to express her displeasure.
She then began to preach to Lewis.
“Confessing to the other person… I don’t think it’s a bad thing. No, it’s not bad. Rather, it is an act of courage that deserves praise.”
“Then why…”
“No, let me ask you first. Why did you confess to me? Did you practice confessing through me? If that’s the case, I apologize for getting angry.”
Rather, her practice of confessing seemed like a point where she should be more angry, but Ariel was genuinely expressing that it was better that way.
“Of course not! I… I like my senior! Furthermore, I’m serious!”
“Okay… It’s right to be angry first.”
“Tsk…”
“Then why did you confess?”
Confession time suddenly transformed into an interrogation atmosphere.
(Wow… I’m craving popcorn.)
I watched it with immersion, as if I was watching a thriller movie.
Lewis answered in gibberish.
“Of course, because I like my senior!”
“You said there was a girl you liked and asked for advice. “The other person has changed now?”
“… “I was a senior from the beginning.”
“What?”
“He was a senior from the beginning. I wanted to get to know my senior, so I consulted…”
“… “Oh my God.”
Ariel started touching her forehead as if she felt a headache.
But the interrogation was not over.
“No, no matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. “You really liked me?”
“… Yes?”
“If you think about it with common sense, it’s normal to like Hanelone or Milena.”
“…”
Ariel wasn’t saying it as a joke.
It was sincere.
(Well… He was like that when he met me.)
Ariel’s beauty is so beautiful that it captivates men’s eyes.
She was so beautiful that even her younger brother could call her a pretty boy.
She is a woman genetically equipped with beauty.
Even though she has such beauty, the reason she doesn’t know her own charm is because of her personality.
Because of her ironclad instincts, people around her probably couldn’t even muster the courage to approach them.
And as a result, Ariel did not receive her confession and of course she did not sense her own charm.
In addition, she lacked sociability and didn’t even have friends.
Because of that, she may not have been able to objectively know her attractiveness.
(If you had known from the beginning, you would have been more wary of me.)
In the past, the reason Ariel accepted my offer to date was probably because she didn’t think of herself as a woman.
No matter how responsible she is, not many women would accept such a date.
Lewis looked at me with a blank expression, and she sighed and answered.
“I’m not Hanelone-senpai or Milena-senpai… “I like Ariel senior.”
“…”
Ariel wiggles her eyebrows once again.
Her discomfort was slowly rising again.
But she suppressed her discomfort as best as she could and crossed her arms with a calm expression.
“First… “I’m sorry for getting angry earlier.”
“Gwae, it’s okay. However… The reason you suddenly got angry… ?”
“After… “There are two reasons why I’m angry.”
Ariel answered calmly, crossing her arms.
“I thought you confessed with impure intentions.”
“Wealth, impurity… ?”
Louis flinches.
This makes it clear.
(Impure bastard…)
That bastard is impure… No, she confessed to Ariel that she had disgusting intentions.
However, the impure intentions that Ariel spoke of were completely different from the disgusting intentions that Louise harbored.
“I thought you were trying to take advantage of me graduating valedictorian.”
“Ah… !”
Only then did I understand Ariel’s anger.
Ariel probably knows best how much power the professor has.
Even though Ariel wasn’t a professor yet, she was treated extremely well at the hotel.
Ariel, she confessed that Louis had become her professor and that she was mistaken.
So she got angry…
As soon as Louise heard Ariel’s answer, she let out a sigh of relief and started laughing.
Haha… There is no way I would have thought such a shameless thing. Still, I’m glad the misunderstanding has been resolved.”
He looked confident again like before.
Then, she took her stance and started making unpleasant deep noises at Ariel.
“Then officially again…” .”
Anyone who saw it looked like he was trying to confess again.
But unfortunately, Lewis’ confession had no choice but to stop again.
“I haven’t told you one thing yet.”
“Ah… Yeah, that’s right. Two, two things… Haha…”
Lewis frowned and raised his head again.
Ariel sighed and answered at the sight of Louis like that.
“The reason I’m furious is because of the second reason, and it’s not a misunderstanding, so I’m not completely angry.”
“W-what is the reason…”
“The reason I’m angry is… “It’s because you took advantage of the other person’s favor to confess.”
“Ah… !”
Ariel raised her eyes and urged Louis in a stern voice.
“No matter how courageous and sacred the confession may be… “If you succeed by using the other person’s goodwill as a shield, it is just a petty act.”
“Ugh…”
Lewis frowned again and winced.
Ariel dismisses her confession as a petty act.
However, even though Lewis frowned at her words, he did not open his lips.
Ariel ignored Luis’s behavior and continued to admonish him.
“Confession is no different from war. “It’s not the end just because the results are good.”
“Ugh…”
“Respect the other person’s feelings as much as your own courage. Even if you win my heart that way, all you will get is a broken heart here and there.”
“Tsk… Yes… Sorry… “I do.”
“Okay… “I hope you understand what I’m saying.”
Ariel turned and headed towards her women’s penthouse.
As Ariel walked like that, she stopped before entering the penthouse and left her last words to Louise.
“I’ll take your wish as granted. Because it would be your wish for me to forget what happened today.”
Ariel left with only those cold words and entered the penthouse.
And Lewis was left behind…
“This… Fuck… I… Such an insult…”
Her face scrunched up, and she started swearing.
Fortunately, she didn’t yell or shout because the sky lounge was open.
“Fuck…”
However, Lewis continued to recite his swear words as if his situation was even more miserable because he could not even shout.
Lewis cursed and headed towards the men’s penthouse.
As I watched Louise go back to her room…
(You can’t miss this great opportunity!)
I quickly returned to my room.
Then, after regaining her body, she quickly left the room.
Let’s leave the room like that…
“Ugh…”
She was able to face Louise, whose face was wrinkled.
I asked, looking at Lewis with a genuine smile.
“What? What happened?”
“… Get out.”
Lewis heads to his room in an attitude that seems to blatantly ignore me.
Looking at Lewis like that, I hummed as if I was talking to myself.
“You look like you confessed and then got dumped.”
“Radish… !”
Lewis flinched as if to provoke a fight and turned his body to face me.
He approached me like that and shouted a harsh voice towards me.
“Fuck, how did you know that!?”
“… Was it real?”
“!?”
It was a moment when the face that looked like a murderer suddenly turned into an idiot.
I giggled looking at Lewis like that.
“Poout… Did you really confess to Ariel? Haha…”
“This… This person… Fuck… Mouth… Shut up… !”
When I said it in a teasing way, Louis’ face started to swell bright red, as if it was going to explode.
He was drunk and his confession was criticized, and he was even admonished by Sang-tae who confessed.
Louis being teased by me in that situation.
If it were the old Lewis, he would have unleashed his magic a long time ago.
But Louis, who had developed patience by suffering all kinds of humiliation from me…
“Fuck…”
I endured the humiliation of swearing once more and headed to my room.
‘It’s a shame to just let it go.’
I quickly raised my voice and stopped her.
“Hey, wait a minute.”
“…”
Judging by the way he flinched and stopped at the sound of my voice, it seemed like it wouldn’t be long before he became an obedient dog.
I grinned at Louis like that.
“You confessed to your senior under the pretense of making a wish, right?”
“Ugh…”
“Looking at the reaction, it’s true.”
“Fuck, do it in moderation, just tolerate it…” .”
I muttered to myself, ignoring Louise’s anger.
“Due to Ariel’s personality, I thought she would grant me if I confessed my wish… I guess it doesn’t work…”
“You bastard… What now…”
“Ah, that’s enough. “I’m done with you, so go back now.”
“This… This person… Fuck!”
Louis ran to his room, swearing loudly as if to show his defiance, and entered, slamming his door hard enough to break it.
I was left alone in the penthouse living room…
‘Okay, then… ‘I guess I’ll start soon~’
An alchemy list was launched.
