Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy

35 – Anzeroth_1

It’s not a lie to say that I like associations.

That doesn’t mean I don’t like younger people.

I like it.

I like anyone who is of the same age, older or younger, who benefits me.

My likes and dislikes are judged by how beneficial they are to me, not just by age.

In that sense, I tend to like Nise Akari.

The materials she possesses and her magical alchemy skills are of benefit to me.

Then some may ask.

If it’s not profitable

If the value of use decreases

What do you think?

Can you still like me?

Then I will answer like this.

That’s not going to happen.

A single strand of hair, a single dot of skin, and a single drop of blood, I can use them all effectively.

And it’s not just Nise Akari.

“Akari. What happened to the item I asked for?”

The fact that each other likes each other.

Awareness that each other loves each other.

Since the day I recognized and acknowledged it.

I have returned to the club.

Of course, Han Yu-ri and Yeon Eun-ryeong encouraged quarrels to use them like this, so during club time, they didn’t show their faces except when necessary.

After this, it was easier for the two of us to be alone.

“Okay, here you go.”

Nise Akari handed me the thing I said with a smile on her face.

I accepted it and gently stroked his hair to mean that he was good.

“Good job.”

Nise Akari then savored it and was afraid to let it go, so she moved her head gently and lightly in accordance with the movement of the hand stroking her hair, trying to preserve a little more warmth in order to keep the time a little longer.

“~!!!”

It was so good that even a small hum started to come out.

A cute figure.

But I couldn’t continue stroking her hair.

“Ah—.”

As my hand moved away from my head, a small sound echoed as if I was sorry.

“I’ll take care of you next time.”

“Yeah, leave it to me.”

In the beginning, I was often asked why I was asked to make something like this, but

Now I don’t even question why they ask me to make these things.

The reason was simple.

Because she loves me.

Didn’t someone tell you?

Love is blind.

Love has such infinite tolerance.

Even without paying the price, ecstasy wraps around the body.

Involuntary praise is blinding.

Total oblivion of oneself.

It is indeed so.

You don’t even need a price.

All I do is small whispers and actions.

She herself was paying her the rest of the price.

“‘I love you,’ Akari.”

Whisper.

Then two red eyes blankly stared at me.

“Love…”

And then I mumble again what I said.

As if it were engraved in my mind, I mumbled it over and over again as if the words were true, no, as if I wanted to make them real.

Emotions disappear one by one.

Only the affection toward me is settled in it.

“So you ‘love’ me too, right?”

“Ah—.”

Engrave and engrave.

A bondage that can never be freed.

It is a gourd that has been engraved continuously for days and weeks.

And it’s a gem that will be engraved for the rest of your life.

She was now in her cage, so hard that she could not escape alone.

“Yes.”

I knocked on the cage.

Then the canary began to sing.

As if that place was such a happy place, sadly without even flapping its wings.

“I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you—”

It’s not long.

The whereabouts of the substance was a memento of his parents, and the guard was thorough, but that was also soon.

Only one space.

If only there was an opportunity…

“I look forward to it.”

I just stared at Akari Nise, who said he loved me like an alarm clock that was ringing countless times.

**

Nise Akari has been the happiest lately.

She thought it would be one-way, because she realized that self-love actually goes both ways.

That’s why I always looked forward to going to the club room after the lecture.

Because that was the only time I could meet him.

In my heart, I wanted to keep sticking around even after the academy ended, even in the spare time I had left.

When Seonghyeon said no, she had no choice but to accept it with tears in her eyes.

Because she didn’t want to be hated.

“~!”

So it’s time to go to the club room once again after all the lectures.

Nise Akari was about to leave the classroom while humming his song.

“Akari, can you give me a minute?”

At that moment, someone gently grabbed my shoulder from behind.

I have to go fast… But who’s interfering?

“Who is… Anje?”

Akari Nise calmed his rising anger and turned his head away.

Then a familiar figure came into view.

It was Anzeroth, a classmate and best friend since freshman year.

‘What happened?’

I don’t know if it was someone else, but if it was Anje, it was possible to give them a little time.

After all, isn’t she your best friend?

“Ah, Akari’s expression…”

“Huh?”

“No, no, by the way, where are you going now?”

“I want to go to the club room, why?”

“No, that’s… Can you give me a moment? I want you to go somewhere with me…”

Now?

That’s not right.

No matter how Anger it is, this time

I couldn’t give you this much time to meet Seonghyun.

“Right now… it seems a bit difficult”

If it hadn’t been for Anzeroth who had said that, she might have ignored it right away.

But since it was Anzeroth, Akari Nise put on a troubled expression and shook her head.

That was the greatest sincerity and expression of friendship.

“It really only takes a moment. It won’t take up much of your time. I beg you, can you give me a little time?”

“…Sorry. I’ll make up for it next time.”

No matter what you do, you can’t do it.

Nise Akari shook her head despite Anzeroth’s earnest request.

Then she turned around and left the classroom in an instant.

Angelert hurriedly reached out to Akari Nise, but again he did not reach.

Getting farther away.

It was getting farther away.

“Akari…”

Akari was getting weird.

It kept getting weirder.

That was evident from the expression he made earlier.

Of course, she soon returned to normal, but Akari wasn’t the type to frown in anger when someone called her.

On the contrary, he was a kid who responded with a smile, so he was popular with everyone in 2-B.

On days when Akari gets angry, there’s even a joke about her that the sun rises in the west.

But Akari became strange.

No, it was correct to say that she has changed.

‘Yes, from that day…’

That day.

From the day she couldn’t catch Akari, she changed little by little with a painful expression as if she was being chased by something.

With pain-filled anxiety and nervousness in his eyes.

Her body trembled and she continued to mutter something.

That’s why she asked several times what was going on, followed her to her dormitory room to help her, and even though she shouldn’t have done it, she followed her and found out why she was doing that.

But she could only guess that she had something to do with the 1-K class or the club, and she couldn’t figure out exactly what was going on.

Even though the investigation progressed, it was blocked somewhere.

Like someone is blocking it.

Someone?

No…

1-K Full.

All of the first year lower classes

As if following someone’s words.

‘That can’t be…’

Is the entire first year lower class related to Nise Akari’s change?

Anjerot shook her head thinking it was a strange imagination.

She didn’t have access to any more information anyway.

And while I was just guessing, Akari’s appearance returned to its original state.

No, she seemed to be back to normal.

But Anzeroth knows. She

She had been close with her for over a year, but she wasn’t blind enough to notice the change.

Akari was just pretending to be back to normal.

“I really can’t do it anymore.”

I can’t leave Akari alone like this.

Until now, no matter who was interfering with the trail, there was no significant result.

Today felt different for some reason.

I had a hunch.

It was a strong premonition.

If you go to her alchemy club in Maddo where she is headed, you will be able to understand why she has changed.

That’s why, even if Anjerot had her Akari, she was going to head to the alchemy club.

“…”

But for some reason, her feet didn’t come off when she tried to head there.

She had nothing to be nervous about, but her mouth was so dry.

Obviously I couldn’t see anything, but I had a hunch that something ominous and terrible was there.

No, it wasn’t even a premonition anymore.

It was certain.

A body that continues to tremble.

Breaking cold sweat.

That’s why I was scared and wanted to give up and ask for someone’s help.

Akari is also popular with the cadets in her class, so if you tell her she’s in danger, there are plenty of people who can help her.

Of course Akari looks normal now, so it took her a while to convince her what she was talking about, or it might sound strange.

‘…No.’

So it’s too late.

I was convinced of that.

[Run &^^%&?@?@?]

She was sure there were plenty of ways to get there safely, and she thought to herself that it was stupid to rush in fearlessly, knowing what was going to happen.

She had a hunch (confidence) that if she missed this moment, she would never be able to save her.

‘I am Nise Akari. I’ll take care of you.’

‘I said Anjeroth, can I call you Ange?’

‘I want to be friends with you.’

Anjerott made up her mind.
