[As I already stated, there will be a bonus chapter with each review, so here it is]
●
on the day of the test.
"…therefore."
Elijah looked at me and YuRia alternately with amazement.
"There are a lot of things I want to ask you."
"Ask me later."
"…"
The boy narrowed his eyes and shut his mouth.
Well, it's not that I don't understand the atmosphere. There are elements like that.
It's also why a human who was fine until yesterday is wearing a mask.
The person I brought as a colleague didn't say a word and only left letters in the air while talking, and it must be the case that I firmly forbade him not to approach within three steps.
And the worst of them all.
"Did you like that?
"
"no."
"…"
"No."
Seeing the 'leash' I was holding in my hand, Elijah looked back at me with an expression asking what this is.
The leash was still attached to YuRia's neck, so I can understand her looking at me with half-contempt.
"…there are circumstances."
"What's the point of putting a leash around a grown woman's neck and dragging her around? I'm really curious too? "
"…"
No, because there is a real reason.
In the first place, this is not what I suggested.
[I, I, suggested that we go around like this first…]
Elijah's absurd expression intensified a little at the divine power letters that Yuria had displayed.
However, this is irresistible.
'If I don't do this, the child keeps getting worse seizures…'
I succeeded in somehow appeasing this guy who was approaching me ignorantly in a state where his eyes were completely released due to the influence of the demon fragment, but after that, this guy developed an almost morbid fear of falling even slightly with me.
Isn't he even recommending a leash himself in the sense of 'it's okay to drag it around, so please don't fall off'.
"…"
uh. I'm scared too.
Going around like this makes me feel like my dignity as a human being is diminishing.
However, as you can tell just by looking at the conditions for Elnor to awaken the grey demon inside, the vessel's manifestation of the fragments inside is very closely related to the subject's state of mind.
And right now, Yuria's mind is almost driven to the extreme. If I stray even a little bit here, the demonic fragments can manifest themselves as they are.
There is a fatal attraction skill, so it won't harm me, but considering the 'power' of the white devil, there is a high possibility that manifesting even once will have a fatal effect on the entire second chapter.
And if Chapter 2, the main quest, is blown up, that itself is game over. death sentence
"…"
That's right, it means that you have to stay like this for a while, even if you end up feeling sick to your stomach.
'…At least until I meet the saintess, I'll have to go around like this.'
These symptoms would be alleviated a little if I somehow brought the saintess who was currently in the midterm exam room into contact with me.
If you think of the 'relationship' between Yuria and Lucien, it can only be like that.
Curing the curse of severance within 5 days is the beginning.
"…why did you ask me to do this?
"
While thinking about that, Elijah threw a question to Yuria.
Well, I have an excuse prepared for a time like this.
I will omit the 'how' of the curse of severance on this guy, and briefly explain the effect. Anyway, if you come within three steps, you die.
This leash was made exactly at that interval. Anyway, it's enough if you just point out the reason that it's to control it.
[…that.]
Yuria, who had been fiddling with the leash for a long time with a somewhat reddened face, soon spewed out stuttered letters.
[If we do this, we feel much safer, so we agreed to go around like this.]
"…"
[Certainly, because it is like this. I feel much more comfortable and reassured […]
I break out in a cold sweat when I see Elijah looking at me with an angry expression.
How do you do that…!
"…I don't mean that, uh, can you explain a little bit."
"…"
Elijah kept his mouth shut for a while and looked at me and YuRia in turn.
It was a terrifying time for me.
"Wouldn't Princess Tristan have a seizure if she saw this?
"
"…that's not going to happen."
There is a high probability that he is waiting at the 'Sanctuary', the final point of this test, because of my request.
At least it's safe to say that there's a high chance you won't see it until this event is over.
"…okay?
"
Saying that, Elijah folded his arms, and soon came out looking like he was contemplating something, taking turns looking at YuRia.
"…I don't see it, that's it."
Then think about something a little more.
As I think about it, I keep getting strange feelings. Or keep shaking your legs alone. Is your face turning red?
He mumbles strange things to himself. 'No matter how much it is…', or 'I have to do something to be interested in me…'.
"…Are you busy?
"
"Please, leave me alone for five minutes. I have something to think about."
"…"
okay.
Then I'm going to pack or pack for 5 minutes.

[ Attribute: Dysenteric Wind ] [ Rating: Basic ]
[ Unpossessed Attributes ]
[If you block the opponent's attack with 'Bounce' at the right timing, you can return a significant portion of the damage to the opponent. ]
'…this again.'
Mouth-watering things come out.
Tristan-type swordsmanship is not something that is said to be obtained unconditionally if it can be obtained among the famous users.
It's because there are so many hidden characteristics of these net exhaust.
If you parry the opponent's attack at the correct timing, the damage that comes to you is reduced to 0, and part of the opponent's attack is returned to the opponent. Performance can't be bad.
If you combine it with the skill you received from YuRia, 'Swordsman's Concentration', it will be much easier to get the timing right.
And the other one…
[ Receive gift rewards from 'Yuria'. ]
[ Receive 1 'Skill Copy Ticket'. ]
…that's it.
Previously, the same reward was given when Elnor's favorability skyrocketed in a short period of time. This guy must be similar.
'Should I keep this for now.'
As it was back then, this could be much more valuable to put aside a little than to use right now.
'…I don't want to use it like before.'
Elnor has manifested the grey devil and picked up related skills, but the white devil doesn't want to use that method.
He's just, uh
The moment it manifests itself, it is annoying.
It's not because it's nicknamed 'the devil of obsession' for nothing.
"…great. decided."
As I was thinking about that, Elijah, who seemed to have finally put his thoughts together, approached me while tapping his cheek.
And then
"yap."
Grab my hand with both hands.
"…For me, this is my limit. I'll try to compromise to this extent. I will go like this until the exam is over."
"…"
While spitting out those words, he continued to hold my hand.
I looked at my face and even my ears were red.
"…sensei, please say something."
no.
What am I supposed to say
"…Even if you look at me like that, the leash won't wear off?!
"
and before answering.
What do you think of me…?
"…do whatever you want."
I was too lazy to answer anything, so I left it alone and took out a map.
'The goal is…'
Once entering the sanctuary. The saintess is there with a high probability. If you take Yuria safely inside, the 'required event' will be triggered.
and second.
"…"
I looked at the status window with a smile.
The traits he had just acquired and the other traits he would gain by growing them were shining brightly.
'This is what you eat.'
Of course, originally, all work related to characteristics must be done with time and sincerity.
However, just like I used Yuria in the past to rapidly raise my proficiency. There are several ways to 'shorten' it.
And, one of the representative ones is this 'midterm' period.
"…"
And, when I thought about my 'current situation'.
The opportunity to use it will surely come.
I'm also doing 1st place.
If you are a deceased person, you can never miss this burning event.
"Oh, but be prepared."
Elijah said so.
"Yes? What are you ready for? "
What are you ready for?
"Prepare to kill everyone but us."
"…"
●
If you ask what kind of person Doud Campbell is, Talion will always answer 'a scary person'.
At least as far as I've been entangled with that person a few times, I don't think there's a more appropriate evaluation than that.
With the fighting power that blew away a candidate for the hero in one shot, with that elaborate planning power. No matter how you look at it, it's hard to believe that he's a freshman like himself.
However, it seemed that not everyone shared that sentiment.
So, up to 'scary person' is correct. If that category is completely missed.
"Oh, Doud Campbell? Isn't that very dangerous human scum? You said never to get entangled? "
"…"
Talion stopped cleaning his spear and looked at his friend.
"…What are you talking about all of a sudden?
"
"No, it is. I think everyone else probably thinks the same way."
One male student continued, scratching his head.
"The student president and the candidate for the hero, both of you said you were close with him?
"
"…isn't it?
"
"But there is no reason for those two to be friends with you. Isn't it? "
"…"
That was an opinion Talion agreed with.
On the surface, those two would never have anything to do with him. never.
Anyone who knows the true value of it even a little would not think that it would be awkward at all even if such a person were twisted.
Unlike Talion, who knew that ability directly, ordinary students whose information was controlled enough deserved to feel that way.
'…It feels like the academy is blocking it.'
That's exactly what he felt.
Otherwise, there's no way a person of that level would be writing such a false name.
As I pondered that thought, the other person continued talking again.
"So, there are rumours that there are rumours that you are holding on to some weakness?
"
"…Weakness?
"
"okay. It wouldn't make sense unless it was a candidate for a hero and Princess Tristan and she was inevitably dragged around. And what is it He doesn't have many friends, but he's always busy running around somewhere and often meets people like the dean or president. Isn't it suspicious just by looking at it? "
The male student poured out sentences like that.
Although it was a sentence that Talion couldn't help but laugh bitterly at.
"…Are those two people who would be caught so easily just by finding a weakness? Isn't that too far-fetched? "
"That's why it's so dangerous. I don't know how, but it doesn't make sense unless it's like that! "
While Talion sighed and brushed his forehead, the male student spoke again.
"And above all, you know Professor Grieber Ranfeld. I heard he said something rude to him in the middle of class and then disappeared. Even if you ask the students from the School of Divinity, no one knows what's going on? "
Talion's hand stopped.
Because I decided that this was a story that had enough real possibility.
If you think of the example of Marquis Riverback, he is more ruthless towards 'enemies' than you think. The odds of destroying it yourself are high enough.
"There must have been circumstances."
though, what
I'm not the kind of person who would do that without a reason.
"What, why are you taking sides like that? You're saying that you could end up being rough with them? Everyone must be holding on tight like that? "
"…Are you rushing?
"
"You know the rules for this midterm exam, right?
"
That, of course, he was aware of.
The highest score for those who arrive at the 'Sanctuary' in the middle of the Great Plains within two days.
There are various phantom beasts and monsters on the road to the sanctuary, so you just have to wisely get through them and reach the sanctuary.
the problem is.
"…Are you saying that there will be a 'raid' there?
"
In the middle of that method, if you fight another student and steal the 'necklace' that was given to everyone in bulk, you will get additional points there.
It's a test method that can be considered vicious, but the law of the battlefield is a method that has never changed since its establishment under the ideology of the weak meat.
And, such a test method sometimes leads to a 'concentrated attack' on someone like this.
"Well, most of them seem to be individual fans of the student council president or the candidate for the hero. There were quite a few of them who kept looking at me with disapproval, asking, "What is that guy doing? "
"…"
You were one of them.
Talion picked up the spear with a wry smile.
"…they, do you know when and where they attack?
"
"uh? why? Will you join too? "
And what I can say with certainty as someone who has gone through such an experience first.
"no. I will definitely avoid it."
Talion replied with a smile.
'Good luck, poor guys.'
I don't even dare to guess to what extent you guys will be smashed.
He quietly Prayed towards the 'Raid Team'.
