Episode 71 3rd place skill (13)
Dyke’s treatment had already been completed.
Because the injury was serious, a high-quality potion had to be used, but it was not enough to leave a hole in Teron’s pocket.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes, we can move right now.”
“Okay, let’s think about the next one instead. “You can win next time, right?”
“… … yes.”
Teron frowned.
This is because Dyke hesitated for a moment.
Others may not know, but Teron knows. That he hesitated.
“I guess you’ve been full lately.”
“no.”
“Do you really think so? Now you’re even lying to your owner?”
“… … sorry.”
Teron knew.
Even though Dyke doesn’t actively get along with kids his age, he still talks to them to some extent.
Sometimes he would show a small smile.
‘It must have been released without your knowledge.’
And it was the same for myself.
We should have also considered the case when Zero suddenly appears and defeats Dyke.
It was clear that he was satisfied with his life at the academy and was relieved.
“Dike.”
“yes.”
“Let’s think back to when we were in the territory. “Compared to then, it’s heaven now.”
Speak as if you were talking to a friend, not a stiff honorific.
Dyke was able to recall the events that had occurred before coming to the territory.
Even just thinking about it for a moment makes my body tremble.
And this was no different in Teron.
‘A report will probably be sent to the family by tomorrow.’
Rats planted by the family.
It will be reported as a draw, but his father will notice.
That he and Dyke were both defeated.
Teron moved slightly away from Dyke and adjusted his posture to sit down.
It’s back to the original relationship. Between a hunting dog and its owner.
“I guess I’ll have to change my strategy.”
“Please speak.”
“Zero will not belong to a faction after all. So there’s no need to rush.”
Approach slowly, building goodwill.
Maintain a close relationship.
It doesn’t stick to you, but that doesn’t mean it won’t join forces with Yuridia.
‘The relationship is just that good.’
They continue to increase their power and put pressure on Euridia and bring it down.
Listen to what Zero wants from time to time and try not to put yourself on guard.
“I’m saying don’t touch it. “Until I am confident that I can win.”
“All right.”
“You hit zero after you have confidence. Do you understand?”
“Yes, I understand.”
Teron knows Dyke better than anyone else.
Natural talent, hard work.
Even the dreams you have.
He’s pushed back now, but the moment Zero lets his guard down, he’ll be able to sink his sword into him.
“First of all, the midterm exam is the problem.”
Upcoming midterm exams.
It will be a place for a decisive battle and a meeting place at the same time.
“There, I take on the position of chief once again. Then this incident is nothing.”
It was when Teron tried to steady his trembling hands.
“Teron.”
“… … “What is it, Yuridia?”
Yuridia looked around. There was no one else but them.
“Are you going to tell me?”
“what?”
“I’m talking about the technique Zero-kun used.”
Teron recalled Zero’s appearance.
From the preparatory actions to the unfolding results.
It was a perfect sum.
“You swore. “I don’t say it.”
“but… … .”
“It is a sword technique used by the traitorous family. “Is that the problem?”
“… … that’s right.”
Teron laughed.
“Euridia, let me give you some advice.”
“Advice?”
“Don’t interfere in other people’s business. Because that will ultimately strangle you and the people around you. This is especially true if you are from a traitorous family.”
“But we have a duty to protect the imperial family… … !”
“what? duty?”
Teron burst out laughing.
It was a laugh so bizarre that it made me feel bad.
“Now I see you were a bitch who didn’t know anything.”
“… … “What does that mean?”
“Just pretend you didn’t see it. It means forget what happened today. “This is sincere advice, so I hope you follow it.”
Teron seemed to know something.
Yuridia tried to ask again, but couldn’t.
Because two children approached.
“I… … “Euridia?”
“why?”
“Mr. Teron?”
“What I mean is, tell your business when your name is called! “You frustrating bastards!”
The child of Eurydiapa and the child of Teronpa.
The two people who were murmuring slowly opened their mouths.
“that… … “What do I do with that?”
“Other areas have been restored, but the ceiling cannot be repaired!”
Euridia and Teron looked at each other.
Come to think of it, Zero shattered the ceiling.
Not only did they use the duel arena as they pleased, but they also destroyed it.
“… … .”
“… … .”
More important things have come up than thinking about the traitor’s lineage.

Crash!
It wasn’t a joke to say that Luna runs well.
Runs really well. The scenery passed by without stopping.
‘There’s no one chasing me.’
I lightly tapped Luna on the back.
“Miss Luna.”
“huh? why?”
“Let’s get treatment first.”
After getting off Luna’s back, I put my hand in my subspace pocket.
[Healing Potion: D]
It is a healing potion made with artificial medicinal ingredients.
It seems like even torn wounds can be healed.
It was a potion purchased at the general store in the academy.
‘The price doubled from the C grade, so I bought it in the D grade.’
It was enough to heal Luna’s wounds.
When I applied it to various parts of Luna’s body, the torn wounds healed instantly.
“thank you.”
“Hehe, I’ll get it all later.”
“Anyway. “I’m done with the treatment, so let’s go.”
Luna knelt down and gave her back.
It meant getting on your back again.
“Hehe, there’s no need to do this.”
“Get on your back. “It’s just because I want to.”
“Then I will not decline.”
He rode on Luna’s back. I didn’t run this time.
We walked slowly, talking about various things.
The night sky was full of stars.
“Hehe, she’s as small as Miss Luna.”
“do you want to die? “It’s probably as small as your eyes.”
Besides that, it was time to talk about various other things.
“Zero, can I ask you one thing?”
“yes. “Please speak.”
“How can I use Ilseom?”
Well, this is a question that might cause a bit of a problem.
Well, I prepared three versions in case something like this happens.
‘I saved Luna’s arm. then.’
I have escaped the danger of death I once knew.
This means that you can keep going until the end of this game.
Above all, I didn’t think Luna would ever betray me.
‘A colleague who will be with me forever. Then it’s better to tell the truth.’
If you suddenly use something like Rodelin’s [Sky Split], I’ll be shocked.
So I decided to let you know. About [Imitation of God].
Of course, since it’s a skill, you’ll have to lie a little bit.
“It’s my family’s vision technology.”
“Vision technology?”
“Yes, it is a vision technology that can imitate another family’s vision technology.”
“W-what!?”
My back snapped backwards.
Luna was so shocked that she almost dropped me to the ground.
Ugh, a man’s waist is his life.
‘I guess this excuse is enough.’
He came from a family that was exterminated by other families who feared it because its arcane skills were too strong.
I entered the academy dreaming of revenge.
‘It turned out that they were the same people who exterminated Luna’s family. If the story is this good, I can be with Luna forever. huh?’
Perfect excuse. But what is this?
Suddenly Luna started crying.
* * *
Luna couldn’t help but be shocked after hearing Zero’s words.
‘A vision technology that can imitate another family’s vision technology!’
I had never heard of a family using such technology, but since it was actually in front of me, I had no choice but to believe it.
‘It’s almost natural that they will be exterminated.’
Maybe he was hunted.
Because it is such a threat.
Suddenly, I remembered what Zero said when I was struggling with the invisible slime in the entrance exam.
-My power is so flashy that it attracts attention.
At the same time, I understood all of Zero’s strange actions so far.
The reason why he hid his skills until now.
Because it was dangerous.
There can’t be that many beings who imitate other families’ arcane techniques.
If someone who knows the secret finds Zero, they will immediately go hunting.
‘I was being so careful, but because of me… … .’
I used my vision skills in front of my kids.
He took risks to protect himself.
That’s not all.
The current swordsmanship of the Leicester family is that of a rebellious family.
‘I can’t believe you used that in front of everyone.’
It has become a situation where even those who exterminated the Leicester family are aiming for zero.
I can’t believe things got so big because of my own wrong judgment.
How could tears not come out?
“I’m fine, so don’t cry.”
“Well… … “Oh, I’m not crying.”
“okay. “It looks like rain is falling from the sky.”
As we talked about various things, we were able to arrive in front of the dormitory.
Of course, it was a men’s dormitory.
Luna asked, scratching her head.
“Something is unfortunate. “Would you like to talk a little more?”
“no. “Let’s go in now.”
“Well, do you want to? Are you too tired after all? sorry. “I was inconsiderate.”
“That’s not it. The sooner you break up, the better. and… … .”
Zero lightly stroked his head.
“We’ll meet again tomorrow, right? Yes?”
Luna bowed her head.
Zero is a really good kid. A child who is so good that he is too good for himself.
As expected, I couldn’t just leave it like this.
Luna bent her waist greatly.
“Sorry!”
“yes?”
Zero said he would see me again tomorrow.
The great incident that took place for two days.
Let’s just pretend it never happened and get along as usual.
He said he would turn a blind eye to everything he had done wrong.
‘You can’t do that.’
I thought a lot during the two days I was away.
There were more than one or two things that Zero did wrong.
It’s not like it’s being passed over like this.
You need to apologize properly.
“Sorry. “I did it because I didn’t know how to treat my friend.”
Because it’s my first time having a friend.
“I won’t bite from now on.”
Because I didn’t know how to show interest in my friend.
“I won’t even follow you.”
Because I didn’t know what to do while my friend was away.
“And again… … .”
“stop.”
Zero interrupted himself.
I still have a lot to apologize for. It’s a big deal.
Did I still feel angry?
“Miss Luna, look at me.”
I slowly raised my head and looked at Zero.
He was smiling.
Well, it was always like that.
“If that’s how Miss Luna treats her friends, then it’s okay for her to continue to do so. but.”
but?
“We are reducing it little by little. Even the normal category. Until then, you can continue as you are now.”
Tears fell from Luna’s eyes.
Zero was saying that he would accept him as he is.
I tried not to cry. I was going to never cry until Zero accepted my apology.
“Huh, huh!!”
The first friend you made.
He was definitely the best friend in the world.
