Episode 90. First boss, Lein (8)
“Oh my gosh… … “I’m dying.”
One earthworm… … No, Luna came over and tapped her shoulder.
Even while we were talking, he was swinging his sword like crazy, so it was a natural result.
“how is it? “You’re stronger than before, right?”
“Hehe, it looks like an earthworm wriggling. “I enjoyed it very much.”
“… … I wasn’t asking you, was I? “You asked Teacher Charon?”
So you’re saying you spoke informally to the teacher? And to Charon, the murder tank?
No matter how much Charon likes you, that has crossed the line.
Luna’s face might turn into a mess.
“… … It has increased a lot. “If you work hard, you will get better.”
Yes, I see. So you’re not even going to hide that you’re the guardian anymore?
If I had wriggled like an earthworm like that, they would have stomped on me in an instant.
“Did you hear?”
Luna nudged me with her elbow.
He said that the fact that his skills have improved tremendously is a fact.
‘It looks like you have no idea that Charon is strange.’
It’s amazing that you can survive even if you’re that dull.
I wish they would protect me, who is weak, rather than a strong child like Luna.
It was a time when I was seriously thinking about, ‘If I had twin tails like Luna, wouldn’t Charon take care of me?’
Sniff-sniff-.
Suddenly Luna sniffed.
The place where Luna’s nose, which was sniffing everywhere, was headed.
thud-.
It was Charon’s arms.
“W-what is it?”
“wait a minute. “Just stay still.”
Luna began to sniff around Charon.
Then he frowned slightly.
“This smell… … I’m sure I’ve smelled this somewhere before… … “I don’t remember.”
Charon stiffened.
Luna, who had been watching from afar, approached me, so it was worth it.
‘It’s been like that since last time.’
I remembered what Luna said, and I smelled it a few times. But she didn’t smell anything from Charon.
It doesn’t make sense that Charon would smell in the first place.
‘Because I have to work secretly.’
Following and tracking are part of everyday life, and hiding by eliminating one’s presence is a must.
Does that kind of person smell? It was impossible.
It was clear that Luna was mistaken.
“Teacher Charon, have we met before?”
“… … “I’ve never done that.”
“Well, that’s right, right? But why does this smell remain in my memory? That’s strange… … .”
It’s even weirder that you try to remember people by smell, Luna.
Don’t you usually think of appearance first rather than smell? It’s not some kind of animal.
“I’ll just go. “Just do it in moderation and go in.”
Charon slightly pushed Luna away and left the training ground.
Is it my imagination that I feel like I’m running away from something?
‘Maybe there’s room to dig into it?’
asked Luna, who was still sniffling.
“Hehe, I don’t smell anything.”
“Um, really? Then maybe I’m mistaken… … .”
“First of all, can you explain what the smell is?”
“What is that smell? Umm… … What are you doing to express it in words? “It’s not a smell I know.”
“It’s okay even if it’s abstract. “Tell me what comes to mind.”
Luna closed her eyes.
It seemed like he was trying to come up with words that were as similar as possible.
Luna, who had been concentrating for a moment, slowly opened her mouth.
“It’s a kind of warm, nostalgic scent. “That’s clear.”
When you say to speak abstractly, you really mean to speak abstractly.
You won’t find a tomboy like this anywhere.
“Hehe, what a warm scent. “That’s not a smell.”
“Are you asking me to tell you at least in an abstract way?”
“I was asking you to tell me about a similar smell… … I made a mistake. “I should have adjusted to the other person’s level of knowledge.”
“… … .”
Tuk-tuk.
I suddenly felt an act of popularity behind me.
When I looked back, there was Leger there.
He was gently pulling my collar with his fingers.
“Hehe, Miss Leger. “What’s going on?”
“Well, something is strange. W, I have to get out of here. Well, I started to get a strong feeling that something terrible was going to happen.”
The stupid hair on the top of Leger’s head. It was spinning furiously.
Leger has a Class A skill called [Crisis Detection].
So it’s probably not a lie.
The problem was that my [extra senses] did not respond.
“Hmm, that’s strange. “Is there a natural disaster coming?”
I don’t know that there is such a story.
It was a time when Leger was wondering if he had misunderstood something.
Leger, who was looking behind me, panicked and started shaking with his head on the box.
“Hey, hey! Lord, I’m going to die! “I have to hide!”
What happens when you suddenly die?
That can’t be possible. Unless even a devil surprises me… … .
When I looked back, I could see.
The devil is standing. A demon named Luna.
Ttduk-.
“Lu, Miss Luna? “Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“… … “Isn’t it your sin not to know that?”
Luna turned into a demon and started biting my head.
“die! die!”
“Kwaaaa!!”
“Please save me!”
Just before the end of Chapter 1.
A cat that sometimes turns into a devil and a rabbit that shivers with its head stuck in a box.
This is the current strength of my party.
* * *
A day has passed.
Time passed quickly when I entered the game, but it seems to have gotten faster these days.
‘There’s only one day left.’
Tomorrow is the day to attack Lein.
I wasn’t nervous.
Because I know that it won’t be a life-threatening fight.
‘Because Lein is only the boss of Chapter 1.’
Let’s briefly compare The Devil’s Piece and Lein.
The Devil’s Piece is not a boss monster, but if you just look at the difficulty level, the Devil’s Piece is much higher.
Because he was an opponent who fought with no abilities and a terrible gimmick of instant death in 3 turns.
‘Originally, he’s someone that can only be conquered after Chapter 3.’
In comparison, Lein is the boss in Chapter 1.
There is no special gimmick.
I guess I have to choose whether to move left and right or up and down depending on the technique he plays?
Since he is the boss of Chapter 1, he has been analyzed to the point of disassembly by the old characters.
As someone who knew all the tricks that Lein played, I had nothing to worry about.
The level is also much higher than Lein.
Yes. There is no problem with fighting and winning.
The problem now is.
‘There is a lack of information about repentance.’
I would have to kill him after making him repent to receive a special reward, but that is currently impossible with the information I have.
‘I got some information from Rodelin and Charon… … .’
A puzzle piece is missing. A piece of information about the character Lein.
‘Should I at least go and ask Elester? But if you arouse suspicion, you’re in trouble. huh? wait for a sec… … .’
Suddenly, a thought occurred to me.
Wouldn’t it be okay to ask Lein directly? A crazy thought.
‘I wouldn’t take out a magic sword in a place where people are.’
There is no problem with having bad feelings towards me.
Anyway, we’ll end up fighting tomorrow, aiming for each other’s heads.
‘After all, I’m smart?’
I left the dormitory while humming.
* * *
The morning class ended in an instant. Now that we have finished lunch.
If all goes according to plan, it is time to go to Lein.
But I was faced with an unexpected problem.
“Hehe, Miss Luna?”
“huh? why?”
“… … “What is this situation now?”
Click-clack-.
A metallic sound rang out from my wrist.
It is the sound made by the chains binding the wrists clicking together.
What’s strange is that the same sound comes from my, Luna’s, and Leger’s wrists.
Yes. Currently we were connected by chains.
Of course, the culprit was Luna.
“Ah, you have to make Regé a friend. That’s why. “It may be a little uncomfortable, but please cooperate.”
Making friends with Leger, and the chains that bound each other’s wrists.
What correlation is there between these two?
As an ordinary person, it was an act that I could not understand.
“If you show them having fun, won’t the kids come on their own? So I tied it up. “Why isn’t it good?”
Yeah, not that good. It’s not very good.
Doesn’t that seem like confinement? It seems to symbolize that once you come here, you can never get out, right?
I’m sure Leger thinks so too.
“Joe, I think it’s a good idea. If you’re this close, you look friendly… … .”
Yes, I see. Are you not normal too?
It won’t work. I need to get out of here, not to go to Lein, but for the sake of my normal life.
Right Now!
“Hehe, I have some business to attend to… … “This is troublesome.”
“Can we go together? “Where should I go?”
Clack-clack-clack-.
Every time we walked, a metallic sound rang out.
I think Lein might get scared and run away if he sees this.
No matter how much I thought about it, it was impossible to go together.
“Hehe, have you forgotten what you promised me? “You should take Miss Leger for a walk.”
“huh? “You can do that later.”
“Didn’t you skip yesterday because you said you were tired from training? “I have to make up for it.”
“Are you going to do this so shamefully?”
“Let’s take a walk and look around the academy slowly. “I’d like to find a friend that Miss Leger can make.”
“Then you can go together too.”
He said, snapping his fingers.
“Hehe, if I’m with you, the child who tried to come will go far away.”
“… … Well, that’s right. “They are the ones who judge people based on their appearance, so this side rejects them.”
Because I have narrow eyes, a symbol of ominousness.
The impact of the skill [Ominous Energy] cannot be ignored.
‘Of course, the children who see you will run away.’
Luna and Leger bound each other’s wrists with chains.
It looks like I’m going to have a head-to-head battle with the various debuffs on me.
“It’s important to make friends for Leger. But I don’t want to abandon you… … .”
“Hehe, hasn’t Miss Luna come up with a good idea? This is a wasteful opportunity to throw away. It’s true that I have some business to run at the moment.”
Luna thought for a moment and opened her mouth.
“okay. I can’t help it. I have some business to attend to… … .”
Luna loosened the chain as if she felt regretful.
If it were the old Luna, she would have clung to me without giving up.
‘I’m saying things have gotten a little better since that incident.’
There was a time when I fell out with Luna for a while, telling her to make another friend.
I guess I had an epiphany at that time, but after that, I occasionally gave him some personal time.
About 10 minutes a day?
This is a huge step forward. In the old days, I even followed you to the bathroom.
‘It will continue to get better.’
Luna will grow up to be a great person who can live without me.
Isn’t that a great person, but an ordinary person?
… … How can you think like that even after seeing Luna chaining each other up?
Are you T?
Anyway, the chains on my wrists went away.
Zero is free!
Zero is now free! I wanted to shout, but I held back.
If I do that, that chain will be wrapped around my neck.
No matter how Luna is, does that really happen?
“Hmm, the chain remains. “Can I stuff it around my neck too?”
Luna fell into serious thought as she looked at the chain left on her hand.
Luna, if that were the case, wouldn’t the walk have turned into a walk with a different meaning?
Maybe the world will fall apart because this game is out of reach for all ages.
“Hehe, I’ll take what’s left. “Because it’s my responsibility.”
“Um, yeah. You can’t lose it? “I’ll have to kick it again when I get back.”
That’s how I was able to save a world from censorship.
