chapter 3
1. Not that kind of person
** 1. Not that kind of person
“Give me a reason to hate you.”
“What?”
“Oh, yes. I’m afraid you’re not a stuffy warrior. If someone tries to frame you by force, give that bastard at least one reason to hate you!”
“No, what… “
“f*ck, I’m dying of frustration!”
“Hey, this is my palace… “
“Are you part-time?”
“…..”
Even for me, who was bullied on a daily basis, there were a few rare people who could be called close friends, and among them, there was a rather peculiar guy.
All of our conversations were that when the hero was struggling with things related to relationships with people, he would come out of nowhere and be sarcastic to me.
Thinking about it now, I think I heard a lot of mysterious advice.
There are so many quotes he left behind.
At that time, I stuck out my tongue, asking why he had such an eccentric way of thinking, but maybe what I need most now is his behavior.
Suddenly, I had an idea.
**
“Huh.”
There was a person whose nerves were scratched by my laughter.
“Laugh… ?”
Winds, a girl who was dumbfounded for a moment, soon wrinkled her face sternly. Her spirits were ferocious, as if she were going to run at me at any moment.
“Hold on tight to that bastard. Don’t do anything stupid.”
Listening to the girl’s orders, the two subordinates pressed harder from both sides of me. Then it became difficult to breathe, but the heart that had already made the decision was infinitely light.
As for what kind of resolution it is, let go of the things that you have been holding on to by inertia. That’s it.
You don’t have to be virtuous anymore, you don’t have to be kind anymore. I don’t know if I feel like it again, but at least now it wasn’t a place to be miserable while taking care of other people’s affairs.
All that remains is to execute.
I sharpened my mind so that I could shoot at any time like the main flesh of the demonstration. If you put your mind to it, and if you go through a somewhat rough process, you can easily defeat this ragged group.
Even if the mana is sealed.
“By the way.”
Before that, I have to ask you one thing.
“Senior Winds.”
The response was immediate.
“Can you stop calling me senpai? It’s disgusting, so shut up…”
“Why are you looking at me with fear?”
“What?”
Winds froze at my words.
The silence subsided for a moment, as if cold water had been poured into the fuel tank of a runaway locomotive. I didn’t miss the chance and continued talking.
“Aren’t you nervous about every little thing I do? From before.”
I always thought it was strange.
They come out coercively without bottom and end, and the only thing they do is beat and intimidate. It’s not at all something a self-professed vigilante would do.
If you relentlessly pursue and harass someone for no reason, there must be a motive for responding.
And to me, it looked exactly like a frightened beast raising its fur and struggling. It’s an action that looks like I’m bound by some obsession rather than doing something wrong.
Then, what was the obsession that gripped Wins?
“Everyone, shut up! When did I… “
Winds began to talk gibberish and show off her bravado.
However, in my eyes, I could only see him holding a trembling index finger, pointing with his finger, and forcibly raising the corners of his mouth, mockingly mocking him.
“I was scared? With someone already incapacitated in front of you? Whoa, that’s funny, you… ! What can you do in that situation?”
“Hmm… “
Unlike her vehement denial, her trembling was gradually reflected in her voice.
And I thought I knew why.
When I inferred from the conversation she had had so far (although it was 90% meaningless scuffle), I could fully guess that she had been subjected to terrible things in the past by a senior from the same background as me.
Not only her, but everyone in her academia must have a past to learn from my origin.
It’s a pity.
But that’s all. That said, there is no reason why I should be playing around with something that isn’t even funny.
“What can I do?”
The level of those who grabbed me right away was appalling. The stigmata of the guys I identified with a side glance were the same as those of the students called ‘fantasy’ I saw in the classroom.
From what I’ve heard, fantasy is the most well-balanced origin. If that’s average, it might be disappointing.
Assuming to subdue them, even 1 second per person is a waste.
When I finished my thoughts, the two guys who were detaining me each grabbed my neck and collapsed.
“Keoouk.”
“Keep it off.”
At some point, my hand was released like a poisonous snake and grabbed their necks.
Seeing her men pass out, drooling, Winds murmured as she couldn’t breathe.
“Ah, at some point… “
“If you fight a little with the assassins every night, they will follow suit.”
Winds, her complexion flushed, took a step back from her, and when I took her one step towards her, she took three steps away from her.
It was an abnormal reaction when I thought that I had only defeated two people and that there were still dozens of people surrounding me.
Winds is totally afraid of me, no, she’s from me.
“Oh, don’t come… “
If there is an opportunity, now is it.
I walked slowly. Fortunately, the guys surrounding me haven’t shown any signs of moving yet. They’re probably waiting for their captain’s orders.
Unfortunately, however, Winds looks halfway delirious when I look at her.
“Don’t come this way, I told you not to come…” !”
Winds, who had been backing her up several times, finally stepped on her wrong foot and bumped her butt.
“Evil!”
It was only then that my subordinates, realizing that the situation was going strangely, gathered one after another, but I jumped ahead before the circle narrowed even further.
Sure.
That’s when the blade of the sword was brought to Winds’ neck. It was a dagger owned by one of the subordinates who had fallen earlier.
“Huh… “
Feeling the cool touch, Wins hiccupped. Her men shouted whale whales in the distance.
“You are finally showing your true colors!”
“You bastard! Let go of the captain!”
“…..”
Revealing his true colors, who did this first?
If the captain’s order is given right away, the guys who have cut their teeth to try to do something to me are doing that, so it’s no wonder. The weapons they hold in their hands are invisible.
There were a lot of things I wanted to say, but I held them back. Instead, it took the form of holding the frozen Winds closer from behind and holding him captive.
Then Wins let out a short moan.
“You, you… “
“Seniors do nonsense in moderation and quickly disband those guys first. You don’t want to be embarrassed anymore, do you?”
“…..!”
As I whispered into his short ear, Winds’ hair stood out. It looks creepy.
I also feel like I’ve become a villain all of a sudden, so I want to put an end to this nonsense. Originally, I was planning to finish the day by looking around the academy, but now I want to take a break, whether it be a dormitory or a dorm.
How many strange things must happen before the day is over before you are satisfied. Mental fatigue has accumulated too much.
Let’s get some rest.
With such a wish, I raised my voice to those around me.
“Seniors, are you on the road? Why don’t we stop here before we see each other worse?”
The response was very spontaneous and enthusiastic.
“I-kill me… !”
“What did that bastard just say?”
“You coward!”
“What are you going to do with the captain!”
“…..”
Anyway, it seems that no matter what I say, I only provoke them.
Even if you take and recite the great proclamation of a known king who put an end to the thousand-year war, it will fall into the words of cheap villains in their ears.
Tsk.
I stabbed Winds’ head with the handle of my dagger.
Then, Wins, who had been nervous all along like a stiff wooden barrel, shuddered greatly.
“Hiyaang!”
Winds, who unexpectedly let out a cute cry, immediately shut her mouth, but from the back of her, she could see that her slightly protruding ears were red as if they were going to explode.
“Senior. Could you please disperse those seniors instead?”
“…..”
At that moment, Winds muttered in a voice the size of a mosquito, but she couldn’t hear it well, drowned out by the shouts around her.
“Yes?”
“……That’s it.”
“What?”
“…Well, if those guys disappear, what will I do with me, hehehe… What are you going to do… “
Um.
“Well? Let go and go on your way.”
“…..”
Another moment of silence.
In the middle of the silence surrounding me, Wins finally opened her mouth.
“…Yes, I am still properly ignored by the trash, me.”
It was an incomprehensible sound without context.
“No… no… no more… “
However, only the momentum changed completely, and in an instant, I got goosebumps and pushed Wins away from the back. The illusion that she was holding a bomb that was about to explode…
“…No.”
It was not an illusion.
Heyyyyy…
At every step Winds staggered, there was an unusual blue air current. The true identity of her aura, which I hadn’t felt in a long time, was her mana.
I immediately had a question.
“How… “
Didn’t it be said that at the Academy, all the students were prevented from using magical powers due to the seal of only one director?
However, the swirling phenomenon right in front of me was, by all accounts, due to magic.
The answer came soon.
“Captain! It’s not possible!”
“Be patient! If you do that, you will be punished!”
The girl’s subordinates were shouting in the distance.
Aha. It’s illegal.
A dry laugh naturally came out of my distant mind.
Am I going to have to survive in the rush of magic users with my bare body from now on? Even provocations without tips should have been done in moderation.
“hahahaha…”
Suddenly, the rough talk of an old friend echoed in my heart.
I think I’ve been f*cked.
