I’m the Slit-Eyed Character at the Academy, but I’m not the Mastermind - Chapter 51

Episode 51
Episode 51 Ant Cave (11)
How could someone with such a graceful and noble appearance say such mean things inside?
Isn’t that a bit too broad of an interpretation?
Not at all.
‘How many times have I played that character?’
I must have done it at least a hundred times.
An unusual character whose inner thoughts are indicated in parentheses along with the dialogue.
It may be a little different, but it won’t be much different.
Now, let’s take the time to interpret Yuridia’s words.
“You don’t know how much I looked forward to this meeting. You weren’t hurt, right? If so, please tell me. I happen to have a potion. Ho ho ho.”
While waiting for you, I realized that my neck was going numb. If you’re hurt, tell me. By the way, do you know how expensive potions are?
You will have to pay the price with your own body. Kyakyakyak!
“I’m currently recruiting talented people to spend a happy academy life with my friends.”
I will kneel the academy at my feet and live a happy life at the academy.
Are you saying I hit you a little? If you come under my wing obediently, there will be no bloodshed.
“From what I heard, I heard you’re quite talented… … How about joining us?”
The first year student at Annwood Academy is me, Yuridia.
You, become my colleague!
‘Is this the point? It’s a quick decision.’
It may be because it wasn’t easy to meet, but it may be more because Teron is targeting me.
It was a bit of a difficult situation.
Yuridia is the first party member who must progress the story together with Rodelin.
If you become close friends, your plans may be twisted.
‘If you refuse, the Yurydia faction will come and beat you up.’
Although it may not be the case due to Yuridia’s personality, her followers were a problem.
The interpretation of rejection will vary from person to person.
‘I’ll have to make him step aside for now.’
Just as there was a strategy for Rodelin, Euridia also had a strategy.
Breaking the mask that Yuridia is wearing.
That was Yuridia’s strategy.
“Hehe, it looks like you need talented people.”
“That’s right. “We really need talent like Mr. Zero.”
“Running one faction… … The leader’s ability is important, but it’s difficult if other people don’t help. “You’ve been through a lot.”
Yuridia’s ears perked up.
It means that the bite has arrived.
Yuridia let out a small sigh.
“Whoa… … that’s right. Lack of ability is ability, but how can there be so many people who do not listen? … .”
“I guess you wanted to hit me.”
“that’s right. But as a noble, I can’t do that.”
“Hehe, you have great patience. “If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to stand it.”
“no. “Even Zero would have been able to do this.”
Yuridia’s tightly balled fists trembled.
Then he sighed again.
“Actually, I didn’t want to do this. “Not only do nobles create factions and instigate disputes, but they also attract children who have nothing to do with it.”
“Now that I think about it, you gathered people to check the power of Teron’s army.”
“… … “You knew that, right?”
“Hehe, of course. Well, most people don’t seem to know.”
Yuridia gritted her teeth.
“He came and talked to me the day after the entrance ceremony. Let’s rule the academy together with him and go into politics after graduation. “How can a nobleman be so abominable!”
Teron’s proposal to enter politics as soon as he graduates is not an empty dream.
Annwood Academy is the best academy in the empire.
Getting enrolled is hard, but graduating is even harder.
Just by graduating, you will receive employment offers from families higher than the count.
‘You served as student council president at a place like that? It is possible to enter the political world without any hesitation.’
Annwood Academy’s student council president.
A position that only one person can occupy per year.
Teron was dreaming of that place.
Due to the nature of Annwood Academy with few new students, it is not easy to be pushed out once you gain power.
That’s why Teron was serious about being called a force since his freshman year.
‘It looks like the second year has been calmed down by Rodelin… … .’
The first year I am currently in is Teron and Euridia.
One of these two will take the position of student council president.
If the world went on normally.
‘In the game, Teron makes a contract with the devil… … Defeated by the main character and his party, he dies.’
That’s all.
As the great war against the devil breaks out, Yuridia’s position as student council president is up in the air.
However, Teron and Euridia, who did not know this fact, had no choice but to fight.
Well, it wasn’t any of my business.
“The forces that encourage discord must be rooted out from the beginning.”
“And that would be the same for Teron-kun, right?”
“that’s right. “I want to rip that unlucky Teron’s head in half right now!”
“The head?”
“Yes, head! With these hands… … @#$%!”
Yuridia, who was in the middle of swearing, stopped.
It was probably because I realized that I wasn’t muttering it in my heart, but saying it out loud.
‘Like that, like that…’ … . ‘I can’t believe you cursed so harshly.’
If this were a novel, I wouldn’t have been able to even write it.
It must have been an insult so severe that it was censored for using special characters.
“Uh, over there… … Zero? “What did I just say?”
“Hehe, I didn’t hear anything except one, so don’t worry.”
“Well, what did you hear?”
“@#$%.”
“You heard the most important thing!!”
Yuridia screamed.
I don’t know why you’re doing this to me. He said he was the one who cursed excitedly.
“Oh, I guess I’ll just leave for today! But I won’t back off like this next time!”
Yuridia was running far away.
It suddenly spun around and came towards me again.
“Oh, please pretend you didn’t hear what I heard earlier. We’ll keep it a secret between us. “Okay then.”
Yuridia bowed her head and returned to where her gang was.
Playing drums and janggu alone.
This is my first time seeing a friend who plays alone like that.
‘Whoa…’ … ‘I’m glad it worked out as I thought.’
Float it to suit your taste buds. And it makes your inner feelings come out.
This was Yuridia’s strategy.
It looks easy, but it is quite a difficult technique.
‘Praise, empathy, and reaction are essential.’
It’s a difficult skill to use unless you’re a perfect guy like me.
The Euridia gang looked at me and trembled.
Are you jealous of my perfection? Anyway, being too perfect is also a problem.
“This is the first time I’ve seen Yuridia so embarrassed… … .”
Alex, who was alone like a duck egg in the Nakdong River, muttered.
Now that I think about it, there was this guy too.
“Hehe, hello, how are you? “Alex.”
“Did you know me? “This is an honor.”
She is a well-mannered child just like Yuridia.
I lightly recalled information about Alex.
A commoner, the main character of this game. and.
‘A character you absolutely have to play first.’
Is it because he is the main character set in the game?
It was impossible to expel Alex from the party.
‘It’s nice to meet you, but don’t get too friendly.’
Alex, Raimon, Euridia, and Rodelin.
These four people are the main members of Party 1. An ultra-luxurious corps boasting deceptive specifications.
It was impossible to attack the final boss without those four.
‘You have to be careful.’
I could see the problem just by looking at Raimon, who was immediately flirting(?) with me.
I never thought that briefly forming a party while on the devil’s side would still have an impact to this day.
It was the same with Yuridia, but it seemed like it would be better to just say hello to Alex in moderation.
“Hehe, please speak comfortably. Aren’t we synchronized?”
“Is that okay?”
“Yes, I would appreciate it if you could do so. “This is how I speak, so don’t worry about it.”
“yes… … No, yes. “I will do that.”
A short silence followed. Now that I think about it, I have nothing to say.
‘Because the people who approached me so far had a purpose.’
Because of the synergy between narrowed eyes and the [Ominous Energy] skill, ordinary children did not even approach it.
Children from the Euridia faction and Teron faction often flock to us and just offer to recruit us.
Alex was different from them, so there was no reason to talk to him first.
furthermore.
‘… … ‘You’re in a situation where you’re alone with a friend you only knew in class, right?’
It’s quite an awkward situation.
In this situation, the only conversation that would come out would be a census at best.
I would have felt the same way. If it weren’t for Raimon.
“Hehe, Alex. “I have one favor to ask.”
“ask?”
“Could you be friends with Raymon?”
“With Raymond?”
“That’s right. Raimon is a good and sincere child. “You think we can be good friends?”
Well, there are times when I stumble a bit, but I didn’t need to say that.
Alex’s eyes turned to Raymon.
Luna was in the middle of a four-way fight.
“Well, we decided to become friends earlier, and I don’t mind staying together… … .”
Alex turned his gaze towards me.
“Can I ask you one thing?”
“Please speak.”
“Why are you pushing Raimon away? It doesn’t seem like he’s a bad kid… … “If you’re worried, you can take me with you, right?”
Well, that’s the truth. There is no excuse whatsoever.
As expected, at times like this.
“Hehe, that’s a secret.”
“… … .”
“Don’t worry. That doesn’t mean I won’t be friends with Raimon. “It’s just because my situation is not good.”
“Is it because of your unusual appearance? “Are you afraid that sparks will fly to Raymon next to you?”
“There are reasons for that, but that is not the only reason.”
Alex was silent for a moment.
It was when he was about to say something.
Luna ran from far away and got between us.
“She’s mine! “Don’t try to become friends!”
“… … ?”
As expected, it’s Luna. You can’t believe you say something that people will misunderstand.
Luna shouted, clinging to me.
“Get away from me before I bite you to death!”
Could this be the obsessive maniac I only heard about? What is that?
Rather than that, it seems closer to an obsessive maniac.
“Aha, that’s what it was.”
It was then. Suddenly, a refreshing tone burst from Alex’s mouth.
A voice that seemed to finally understand.
What on earth did I realize?
“Sorry. “I was late in understanding.”
“yes? What is that… … .”
“have a good time. “I was so clueless.”
No, wait a minute. What on earth is this situation?
It wasn’t difficult to understand the situation.
Luna is clinging to me as if she can never let go.
It was only then that I realized that Alex had misunderstood something.
“Hehe, Alex? I’m misunderstanding something now… … .”
“I’m coming back! Everyone gather together!”
But my cries did not reach Alex.
This is because Charon’s gathering order resounded loudly throughout the community.
Alex walked shoulder to shoulder with Raymon.
“Raymon, let’s go.”
“to?”
“hurry. “If I keep doing this, I’m going to get scolded by Teacher Caron.”
“hmm… … Ha, but… … .”
Raimon looked back and forth between me and Alex.
It seems like I still have regrets.
of course.
“What you looking at? “Won’t you get out of there?”
“Hey, hey! Zero! See you all next time!”
I couldn’t beat Luna, the obsessive mad dog.
Alex narrowed one eye at me and started walking away, taking Raymon with him.
Well, this makes it clear.
Alex is having a ridiculous misunderstanding right now.
Luna and I are like that (?).
I can’t go out with Raymon because I want to spend time alone.
That’s definitely what I understood.
Unfortunately, it’s a misunderstanding.
Luna’s strong personality is part of her personality, but I’m not interested in a kid like that at all.
“for a moment! I think you’re misunderstanding something, but I like the straight and chunky style… … .”
But my voice didn’t reach me.
Because Luna covered my mouth.
“Zero.”
“… … yes?”
“Did you want to be beaten to death that much? “Okay, then let’s talk about it sooner.”
Luna’s eyes shone coldly.
“I would have had fun hitting you.”
Um, Luna. Jukbbang and jukbbang are completely different concepts, right?
But I didn’t dare say those words.
This is because Luna had her fists tightly clenched.
“Hehe, what did I say? Let’s go now. Teacher Charon is waiting for you.”
“… … Walk in step with me. From now on, don’t take even one step away from me.”
Yes, yes. Is there any possibility?
“Let’s get out of the anthill now! “Don’t let your guard down until the end!”
Under the escort of instructors, they began to leave the ant cave.
huh? Yuridia has a dual personality.
So what kind of person is the main character, Alex?
The most normal person in this game.
That is, in a sense.
‘You could say he is the most abnormal person.’
You will soon find out the meaning of that word.
We were soon able to reach the entrance.
It was the moment when the eventful ant tunnel exploration came to an end.
