I Became the Academy Time Stop Villain - Chapter 236
236 – 237. Minerva’s Worries.
Sunday evening.
A day when we all went out together for the first time in a long time.
Minerva entered the room feeling tired and fulfilled, but at the same time, one person appeared in her head.
[Merck…]
Merck was attached to Jupiter, not Chrono.
Since then, I have been indebted to Chrono, so I did not have many opportunities to meet Merck, who was with Jupiter.
If it were normal, I would have seen my face often at the guild, but right now the guild is in the same shape, so I wonder if I can easily show my head.
In the end, it was only after the Academy started that I had time to watch it, but even that ended up being mixed.
[By now]
That’s why I wanted to see your face at least once.
I took the step because I wanted to at least hear your voice.
She walked up to Merck’s dorm room door, as she remembered, and knocked on the door.
[MERK. This is Minerva.]
[…
Pretending to be popular without feeling it.
She called several more times, wondering if Merck had erased her pretense of popularity, but she did not answer.
So, I didn’t want to do it as much as possible.
[───Suuuuu.]
Advent──It’s not that great, but the use of divinity has greatly increased due to the Athena Guild’s incident.
Minerva used her divinity to sharpen her body’s senses and searched through Merck’s dormitory with sound.
Just like a bat emits ultrasonic waves and determines its path based on the amount of sound reflected.
The intelligence gained from the goddess of wisdom made such ridiculous arts possible.
The result of that finding.
[…No?]
There is no Merck.
It literally didn’t exist in the room.
If so, where is it?
Minerva stood and thought about it.
Will she go back to her room like this?
Or will she continue to wait for Merc, who doesn’t know when it will come?
[1 hour…No, only about 2 hours.]
The worries were short and the choice was simple.
Because Merck is the ‘first friend’ Minerva made.
It wasn’t a big waste to wait for an hour or two for such a friend.
[Merk?]
[Why is Mine…?]
In the end, thanks to Minerva’s sincerity, she was able to welcome Merck and
[What I held in my hand…]
[…It’s nothing!]
Meeting after a long time was truly the worst moment.
…
..
.
“What should I do?”
“…Mmm.”
There is a rough idea.
‘Now that I think about it, it will be time.’
Cultural festival.
An event that cannot be missed at the Academy.
And even Merck exclusive events that take place during the process.
‘…Hermes. Are you listening?’
Of course I didn’t think he would answer, but I whispered to the sky.
‘Can’t you at least teach it to your friend?’
Static.
I didn’t specifically ask for an answer.
I exhaled lightly and turned my head.
‘In the end, it’s not their business.’
Even if it is his favorite apostle.
It meant that the wall between two beings could never be repaired or torn down.
“No. Maybe it’s something like that?”
As the god of thieves.
Based on the saying that a perfect thief does not even know that he has been robbed, one might argue that hiding one’s true goal even from one’s close friends is the ‘true nature of a thief.
It’s contradictory in many ways, has no answer, and is just like a child’s idea.
Did Seodanggae also say that he will recite Pungwol every three years?
It’s been half a year since I was struck by the gods. I felt like I could read the thought patterns.
‘Anyway…Is this the answer again?’
One word to answer Minerva’s concerns.
Just watch it. Wait. We’ll have to wait and see.
If you try to stop them, it won’t stop them, but rather it will only make them grow apart.
“Of course…I guess that’s the case…”
Minerva lowered her head, looking downcast.
As if he was disappointed in himself. Her hands are clenched into fists and pressed firmly on her knees.
“I guess I can’t do anything this time either.”
“…Write.”
My appetite was bitter.
In the first place, most events that take place at NTR Academy are like this.
A situation that can only be resolved through the intervention of the protagonist. A situation where NTR will occur if the protagonist does not intervene.
There was no room for the heroine to intervene during the process.
“He’s a smart kid. He’s probably good at covering his face.”
“Still… “
In the end, routine comfort was all that could be given.
Of course it won’t reach your ears.
Minerva still lowered her head and rubbed her thumbs together.
“There is no way… ?”
“…Hmm?”
I pay attention.
Strangely, he looks at my eyes and talks to me.
“So, actually, I’m the same as Merck, right?”
“?”
“The fact that we are in an unavoidable situation… Or something like that.”
“Ah.”
Minerva says.
Maybe, if it were me, I could solve it.
“Well, it just happened to be like that.”
“Then maybe Merck too…”
If it’s Chrono.
Even if I can’t do it, Chrono definitely does.
“…Hey.”
“!…I’m sorry.”
She takes a step to the side, as if realizing what she said.
‘It’s not entirely wrong, though.’
But that wasn’t entirely true.
In the end, Merck’s event is like a disaster that explodes after being tolerated.
In particular, it must be said to be even more vicious in that it actually took place.
It’s just that I don’t have any physical evidence.
If the target is a criminal with a criminal record, the story is different.
This is a yari turning event that supports the encouragement and punishment of evil.

“I can’t think of anything in particular right now. But if something happens, I’ll help as much as I can.”
“…Thank you Chrono.”
Minerva closed her distance to me again.
Different from before. This time, the movement seems to have a different purpose.
“Really. I’m glad Chrono is my master.”
“Ugh!”
An unexpected title.
He quietly presses his thigh against mine, mentioning a contract that will happen someday.
“Just a little while ago, I was very worried, afraid, anxious. My head was full of thoughts about losing my friend…”
Before he knew it, his hand was on his thigh.
He subtly leans against my chest and gives his weight.
The two people suddenly looked as if they were completely embraced.
“Now, somehow, I feel at ease.”
“…Is it difficult to trust me too much?”
“Huh? Heh, ahaha!”
“No, whatever.”
Suddenly laughs.
I don’t think I said anything particularly funny.
“Haaah. Do you know that, Chrono?”
“I don’t know anything. I’m ignorant.”
“Then I will tell you.”
“…It’s true no matter what.”
Minerva continued to smile in my arms and looked up at me with a more relaxed face.
“Chrono may not trust Chrono. But I trust Chrono.”
“So, on what basis is such trust──”
“──Because I was saved by Chrono!”
“…”
A word with no difference.
As I turned her head to the side and expressed silent denial, Minerva leaned her face against my chest.
“I believe. If it’s Chrono, we can save Merck too.”
“…Why don’t you just tell Jupiter, who is right next to you, and tell me?”
“It’s too much for you, Jupiter. How can someone who doesn’t know Merck’s true identity save him?”
“I know that?”
“At least I don’t think I would know.”
“…”
Accurate answers one by one.
This time, I answered in silence.
“Master…Master Chrono…”
“Because I understand. Because I understand, just stop.”
A voice that whines like a puppy being picked on.
My heart ached as I did something I had never done before.
“I’ll do my best.”
“That’s enough.”
Declaration of surrender.
Minerva smiled brightly and leaned against me.
Just below her head.
A subtle floral scent.
Probably changed the shampoo.
“…”
“…Huh?”
Kuuk. Minerva pressed her head against my chest.
At first, I thought it was because of her mood, but Minerva continued to press my chest at regular intervals.
“What’s wrong?”
“…Recently, I mean.”
The hands overlapped the back of her hand.
Minerva’s hand overlapped mine.
It feels like being pulled up.
As she is guided obediently, she gradually rises upward.
“With Maid. And with Leah. This is something we talked about when we were together with the girls…”
If you stroke her her hair her her her.
He said he was very relieved and felt good.
“That’s it.”
I guess it’s because the kids’ mental age is at exactly that level.
Just as I was about to answer Minerva. Suddenly, she felt something soft in her hand.
“So.”
“Uh…”
Right hand.
Above Minerva’s head.
“Couldn’t you pat the maid who is anxious that her friend she is in danger and calm her down …?”
“…Bill.”
I came in with a sigh.
Minerva’s unexpected charm.
She almost took my breath away at the gap.
“If you ask me, isn’t that selling out her friend?”
“…”
A word that came out without me knowing.
“…”
“…”
Static
What follows after that.
“I’ll just leave.”
“…Oops!”
I caught Minerva as she was about to leave and stroked her endlessly.
I’m sorry, but honestly, what should I do when it looks like that…
**********************
After hearing the news of Merck’s kleptomania.
I felt that Merck’s event was getting very close.
For now, we just have to wait and see until it explodes.
However, since there is a request from Minerva, we cannot just sit back and wait for it to explode.
‘Let’s follow in Merck’s footsteps.’
First, I tried to gather as much information as possible.
Soon, I started following Merck around and trying to figure out his daily routine.
“Assei! A healthy body resides in a healthy soul! So, conduct the Youth-Government Training 100 times!”
“Do it!”
I was kidnapped by teacher Evie.
