Chapter 49 – Three New Friends
Rike said that when Seria introduced Chloe out of the blue during lunch, she was a little surprised where and how the two got together, but she didn’t think anything complicated.
It’s just Seria, that’s about it.
Since Dritna’s daughter was a family that Rike knew of, she didn’t know Chloe at all, and she seemed to know herself as well.
‘…I’m in pain, but I’m not patient, right?’
Each and every person is different, but the atmosphere and emotions that you are seeing for the first time are amazing.
It doesn’t look like it’s stabbed, and it doesn’t seem like it’s trying to do anything bad.
The uniqueness of being extremely nervous and crying alone without any malice.
I wondered what if she was talkative enough to be similar to Seria when her mouth was relaxed, but that wasn’t the case, it was a great relief.
Since I was arguing with Seria on behalf of me, I didn’t worry about her too much, and I thought it wouldn’t be a problem if I was with her.
Like this combination…
Haha!
“Ehehe… That’s right.”
It felt exactly like Seria said.
Her family has an undeniable rumor that black magic may be involved, and Seria, who became obscured by being entangled with herself in her first steps.
I don’t know the exact reason, but even Chloe, who is always alone in the Engineering Department.
This was also an art, so if you insist, it was a combination that made you laugh out loud.
–
There was a lot of time until the next class, so the three naturally moved to find a quiet space with few people.
“Aaaaa~!! When are you going to have an outdoor class?”
Seria, who only dreams of being a single-minded adventurer, sat down on her chair and rolled her feet as if she was looking forward to learning from Platinum.
Now, the academy is frantic with pre-exploration and manpower recruitment to prevent an accident like the last time outside.
Therefore, the exact schedule is yet to be determined.
However, it is said that at least one practical class will be held in parallel with accommodation.
‘I want to go quickly…’
She prides herself on having higher expectations than Seria.
Speaking of Sukyoung, she had a short experience before connecting with her brother. Any experience that allows you to look back on that time is always welcome.
“Looking at the reaction today, most of the engineering departments have a bad expression… Will Chloe be okay?”
“Ah…I think I’ll be fine. I don’t have any experience living outside…”
Seria is comfortable with her words, but she doesn’t let go of her words.
“It’s really strange that practical combat classes aren’t popular in the Knights Faculty… It’s the most fun.”
It was the right thing to sympathize with Ricke too.
Even Seria, who is usually a tomboy, when she becomes a real battle class, her eyes burn as if she has become a different person.
I always feel grateful that she listens to her brother’s lessons seriously.
“But I don’t think everyone hates it.
‘···!’
Chloe’s words carefully speaking while touching the teacup are not just words to match the mood.
Rick can tell.
A selfless and pure admiration for her own lover.
Feel bad
Rike, who had kept her mouth shut until this point, met her eyes with Chloe’s, and she smiled very lightly.
“I think Miss Chloe and I can become good friends.”
“-Eh, yes?! Go… Thank you?”
Seria, if not as much as Chloe, looked at Rike and Chloe alternately as if she was very surprised by the sudden situation.
“What is it…The two of you?”
*****
When you open the door, the musty smell pierces your nose.
However, Robert, who entered Isaac’s room, which was more tight than last time, had a lot of trouble getting to the table in the center.
“Isaac…Wouldn’t you like to have an attendant tidy up the room?”
“Umm- If you do that, you won’t know where the stuff is… I haven’t even picked a new attendant yet.”
At Robert’s words, Isaac pretended to be troubled, and Robert sighed and handed the book in his hand.
“Take it – I thought it would be soon… But no matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find the same book? I copied it and made a new one.”
[Dimension Magic Experiment Report]
I poured money to find out if it hadn’t been officially published, but I couldn’t find the same book anywhere I went.
In the end, I borrowed another book from the academy library and called a skilled copyist to make another one of the same.
It might be a little noisy if it was discovered that he copied the book in the academy, but right now there is no other way.
The most important page is missing, but this was the best.
Isaac sat down and quickly flipped through the book he had been transcribing.
As if interested in understanding the geometric figures and contents, I admired them a little and nodded while hitting the table with my fingers.
“Certainly, with this, the time to produce meaningful results can be drastically reduced. The page that is said to have disappeared later is also a little predictable.”
“Whoa—that’s fortunate.”
Robert, relieved that his money and time had not been wasted, let out a sigh of relief.
Isaac closed the book and stared at Robert, who was stretched out.
“…The Faculty of Engineering said they had an outdoor class?”
At the mention of an outdoor class, Robert’s face contorted at once.
“It’s not just our department, the swordsmanship department also participates in about half of it. Ha… I’m afraid I’ll die.”
“Isn’t it special and enjoyable to think of going out with your fiancé? I think it’s something that can only be done at the academy.”
Robert’s expression hardened at Isaac’s words.
‘Is this bastard scratching people on purpose?’
Pressing down the bubbling inside and looking at Isaac’s face, he seemed to really think so, without any malice.
If it weren’t for that crazy Chihuahua bitch… I don’t know what kind of bullying comes out after I graduate when I’m barely a daughter of a baron’s family.
Even if he saw Rike and tried to move, he would often see a small red dog growling and staring at him.
The pitiful thing about her is that whenever that happens, Rike doesn’t even look at herself.
It wasn’t that the red woman was taking care of Rike’s reluctance, she was Rike.
‘Sometime in the family… Shit.’
She tried to contact the family again yesterday, but only came back saying not to worry.
Admit it. Right now, Rike is not interested in men.
She can tell herself by looking at the male cadets as inanimate objects.
She has had many hardships on her, so she can understand it enough.
That’s why even more…
Robert’s desire grew stronger the more he thought that she could not be had by anyone else.
Recently, she is a rickety who is severely jealous of the female cadets of each department.
Rumors that she had seen her wandering around with a man in his family’s estate from afar, and seeing her getting into trouble with black magic, Robert could feel that her popularity was rising.
‘There’s a certain level of nonsense… But women’s jealousy really disgusts me.’
I went to the cadet and asked the cadet if it was really a statement that he could be responsible for, and he said he couldn’t do it again, so it was really ugly.
‘A noble lady who has a fiancé but meets another man behind the scenes. They say that it’s not probable to write a novel like that!’
Reality sometimes laughably ignores probability, but no matter how you look at it, that wasn’t the case.
Too many options to lose to the nobility are not realistic.
It just feels like the world is putting tests and hardships on your will.
Unlike the beginning, pure purpose and emotion have already changed, but Rike has now become a symbol for Robert.
Whether or not the country can achieve its goal by itself.
God gave me everything and gave me a skill called the best probability and even a face, but I couldn’t get the results I wanted, so I felt like I was going crazy as my self-hatred piled up.
Still, who am I going to tell this to?
Robert laughed out loud.
“Wellhaha-!! That’s right…”
“As expected, that Robert… Anyway, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”
“Huh? To me?”
…
…
Robert’s expression changed every moment as he listened to Isaac’s story.
“So, summing it up… You want to get the woman you want while maintaining your engagement for research funds?”
“I understand correctly. Is there any efficient way? To be honest, I’m a gem disease, so I need an expert’s help. I’d rather have a set formula.”
Why do wizards fret because they couldn’t put the word efficiency in the sentence?
Even if you ask me while looking for an expert… Isaac’s face is ambiguous to say that skill and face are the method.
There are strangely many women around me… But there was no way to tell them.
Robert pondered what to say to Isaac, who looked at him with high anticipation.
“For now… If you want to keep your engagement, wouldn’t it be ideal to keep your fiancé as your wife and keep the woman you want as your concubine?”
This is not possible in Korea, but in a world where polygamy is all too common, this kind of alternative often comes up.
“Um- it’s an ideal and perfect method that can’t be refuted. To achieve that, I’m curious about how to win a woman’s heart.”
“What’s your relationship with the other person?”
“We are cadets at the same academy, but we’re not particularly close. We’ve talked about it a few times, but…”
‘Does this crazy guy fall in love at first sight?’
It’s amazing.
First of all, Isaac didn’t seem to have any intention of revealing the target.
Do you think that I will be caught at least a weakness?
“Why don’t you just ask me out on a date?”
“… Everyone knows I have a fiancée, wouldn’t it be hard? I want to make that woman come to me by expressing her crush first.”
미친새끼.
He was crazy anyway.
To say that they were playing with each other was unconditionally wrong. I’m different from that guy.
‘····’
Although it was pitiful to see what kind of woman Isaac was, Robert was troubled when he remembered that she needed Isaac’s knowledge.
“Then create a debt of mind? Hire even a frightening-looking substitute to save someone who is in danger.”
Isn’t that what every man imagines?
The delusion of rescuing a woman from danger.
“It’s a problem if you get caught, but it’s an efficient method because you can write and organize the doubles. If you save it with flashy magic at a dramatic moment, you’ll even be able to appeal your abilities as a wizard.”
“Another method… Use the rocking bridge effect.”
“A rocking bridge?”
Ah, maybe this term doesn’t exist on the continent. Sometimes there are theories or words that don’t work like this.
“That’s why the swinging bridge effect is—”
Isaac’s eyes began to light up as he listened to the shallow explanations he spat out from memory.
“Women’s feelings are such a mechanism! I’m afraid to count how many women you’ve cooked with this technique…! It’s a love that blooms from tension and crisis that makes your mind uneasy, so it’s definitely a topic that noble ladies will be crazy about. I’ll have to think carefully about a plan to create such a crisis.”
Looking at Isaac, who was spitting excitedly as if he had already succeeded, he seemed to have hit the wrong switch, but Robert just turned away and closed his eyes.
