Became a Swordsman Genius in a Pretty Girl Game - Chapter 288



288. Test (1)

“Status window.”

After calling Alice and the other party members, I came out to the training ground first and shouted out the status screen.

[······.]

The status window telling me to come out doesn’t even appear, just a blinking ellipsis.

‘······Is it a bug?’

Wasn’t it the same in the last “Ring of Affection and Obsession”?

Of course, at that time, it was a minor bug where Director Lina’s name appeared for a moment and then quickly disappeared.

The cause of the bug that appears in my status window.

‘It’s probably the Demon Realm.’

In the original game, the Demon Beast, which only appears in the final chapter, was defeated much earlier.

Even though the sword master and the teacher practically blew on the spoon to cool it down and fed it to me, I can’t say that I didn’t contribute to the strategy.

‘Hmm, this is definitely difficult.’

Of course, just because an error message popped up in the status window, it didn’t mean that the power suddenly weakened or anything.

However, since I had been checking my objective abilities and skills and making training plans, this status window error was quite a difficult problem.

“Well, there’s nothing I can do about it right now.”

All we can do is wait a little and pray that it will be resolved on its own.

I stared blankly at the status window, then sighed deeply and closed it.

What I’m trying to do now is evaluate the growth of party members.

And Alice’s evaluation.

This time, while facing off against the Demon King, I got the feeling that the level of our party members might be much higher than I thought.

Alice, tell me what you are doing.

Since it is a limited new character, it is essential to find out what abilities it has and what type of battle it can do.

‘Well, I was originally going to do it as soon as I got here, but it took a week.’

Last week.

I had to spend time taking turns with the Utopia party members.

Ichikawa was stuck with me all day, so the other party members started asking for the same thing, so it naturally turned out like this.

It was also a means of stress management for party members who had been through difficult training over the past month.

In fact, Lee Yuri and Kang Dohee also trained together in the Forest of Swords, but in the end, they were only together for the first and last time.

Because I was trapped in the pit alone.

‘Oh, since the teacher is here, I’m not alone. I should say hello to the teacher before the kids come.’

I tapped my phone, found my teacher’s number, and made a video call.

Toururur─ Click!

The teacher answered the phone before the first ring had even finished.

And the Master’s face appears as a hologram.

The Master was wearing a fur hat against the backdrop of a pure white ice palace.

-······.

I answered the phone right away, but the teacher didn’t look me in the eye as if he was embarrassed.

Well, I guess I need to explain it a bit more.

“Master.”

– okay······.

“You didn’t want to see me?”

-······That’s not it.

“Then we should make eye contact and face each other. I’ve missed you so much, Master.”

Then, the teacher made quick eye contact and then turned his head to the side.

I let out a snicker.

‘I don’t know if I’m allowed to think this, but it’s cute.’

I think it was because it was a sight I never saw before.

“You know that I have to continue teaching you my lessons, right? You have to come up here every week.”

– Hmm······. I know.

The teacher rolled his eyes and answered.

Then, stand tall.

Her gaze was fixed on me.

The face was enlarged.

The appearance of having one’s face pressed against the camera.

‘Huh? What did you get on it? But it’s not like you can see it clearly because it’s close to your face······.’

– What is that?

The teacher narrowed his eyes and asked.

“yes?”

– The wounds on your body right now······. Did you get them in a dungeon? Which gate did you get them at to inflict so many wounds on your body?

ah.

I let out an awkward laugh at her words.

‘I didn’t think to cover this up.’

Now, there were quite a few teeth marks all over my neck, shoulders, and every corner of my body.

“No, that’s not it······. These days, there’s something called the One Bite Challenge that’s popular among partygoers.”

– One bite challenge? Party members? What’s that?

One bite challenge.

The origin of this challenge is the nightmare curse currently hanging over Ichika.

It was a curse that was lifted through skinship, but because I had been neglecting it for almost a month, I became obsessed with the curse and bit my own body in front of everyone.

Of course, it was a minor issue that was quickly resolved after hugging him for a day or so and letting him bite as much as he wanted.

However, Shin Se-hee, who came to see me the next day, looked at the bruises on my neck and shoulders and asked with a serious expression.

“Mr. Jin Yu-ha······. Is that what Mr. Ichika is like?”

‘Didn’t Shin Se-hee know?’

Of course I thought you would know about Ichika’s curse.

Since she seemed to not know, I explained it to Shin Se-hee as best as I could to avoid any misunderstandings.

Shin Se-hee, who was listening to that, said that she understood, but that it was a problem.

“problem?”

“Yes, usually, when party members bite like that, it’s a common symptom of mine. Hmm, of course, it’s okay for us now that we know the situation. But it would be a bit of a problem if it happened in front of everyone. There are people at the academy who saw us.”

“······Then what should we do?”

I didn’t want Ichika to be misunderstood by Mine, so I asked Shin Se-hee for a solution.

Then, the solution she proposed was, let’s say, a bit absurd.

“Let’s all do it together. If Ichika-san were the only one doing it, it would be a problem, but if we all do the same thing, wouldn’t it be a light incident that we can just laugh off? Just say that Jin Yu-ha lost a bet.”

So, in the end, everyone takes a bite out of me.

Since it was an effort by all the party members to cover up Ichika’s mistakes, I nodded without any hesitation.

yes!

In that way, the party members’ teeth marks were left on my body day after day.

When Shin Se-hee and the party members posted this on their personal SNS, it became quite a hot topic among the people around them.

Since there was no need to make up a lie to the Master, I explained everything.

The master heard that story─

Wink.

He wrinkled his nose.

– That fucking b*tch······. Ha, she was being shallow······. Are you really going to spit on her like that because she thinks it’s yours?

“yes?”

The teacher muttered something, but I couldn’t hear it clearly.

– Phew······. No.

And then, glancing at the wounds······.

‘Is that what you want to do?’

“Would you like a bite, too, Master?”

I said in a playful voice.

– What, what─!?

“Everyone liked it because they thought it was just a game. People’s reactions were good. Even the teacher took a bite. The kids all said it was delicious.”

– Disciple, one bite! Ma, it’s delicious! T, that’s not what a man says! Jin Yuha!

The teacher shouted with a more bewildered look on his face than ever before.

Still, it’s much better than the way we couldn’t even make eye contact a little while ago.

I said with an even deeper smile on my face.

“So, you don’t like it? If you’re the Master, I can have as many bites as you want······.”

-······.

When I spoke, slightly revealing my neck, the teacher’s face turned bright red.

“i miss you.”

I’m not sure if the Moonlight Sword Technique is being made well.

Are the mine assassination squad activities going well?

I didn’t ask what was going on with the ice-attribute sword.

Even without asking, the teacher is probably pushing himself and reducing his sleep.

“Take care of your health. Most importantly, it’s important that Master doesn’t get hurt. Oh, by the way, is Master Geomje there too?”

Then, the teacher wrinkled his nose again.

“······That woman.”

at that time.

suddenly!

– Ah, my disciple! Did you find me?

– Who is your disciple? Sword Master!

Suddenly, the swordsman’s face appeared from the side.

I looked at her and made a dumbfounded expression.

A roughly bandaged chest, a thin Aloha shirt, and sunglasses perched on his forehead.

The background was clearly a pure white winter background, but the swordsman looked as if he had mistaken the season.

“······Oh, aren’t you cold?”

– This place is truly heavenly! Everything is prepared, and there’s even a hot spring! Why didn’t you introduce me to this place earlier!? After spending all my days buried in the mountains, swinging my sword and pretending to be noble, I finally feel like I’m getting some proper rest! Hehe, it feels like I’ve lost 80% of my life.

– Put away your cheap clothes. Check it out.

– Oh my, what’s wrong? Are you being harsh to the teacher?

– I have never had someone like you as a teacher.

‘This guy really does it his own way.’

Anyway, the reason I came to the inspection was different.

Alice.

From noble mtl dot come

It was to ask for information about her.

After all, since I don’t know anything, it’s Alice who knows the most about her.

I thought it would be better to at least have some information to start with.

“Your Majesty, can you tell me about Alice?”

– Huh? Malsuk? Are you interested? Well, I’d say you’re in favor. The type of guy she likes is······.

“Well, I’m thinking of having him work as a member of our party. I thought it would be good if you could let me know in advance.”

I cut him off before he could start talking nonsense.

Then, the inspector licked his lips as if it was not fun and opened his mouth.

– First of all, I hate to say it myself, but I’m quite the weirdo.

What is a geek to a geek?

‘Rather, aren’t you a normal person?’

– First of all, Malsuk─

And I opened my mouth at the explanation that followed.
