I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 107

[ Engagement Ceremony (2) ]

After completing their business in Findias, Corin and his party returned to Aden.

Corin was quickly healing thanks to his regenerative powers, but Arisha and Runia needed time to recover from their injuries.

“This may surprise you, but you can’t peel apples.”

“Uhm… I’ll practice.”

It’s the third day since I returned home. Arisha was in charge of nursing Runia.

Originally, a separate caregiver was hired, but Alisha volunteered to do it herself.

“Sister… how are you feeling?”

“It’s worth holding on. It’s thanks to the elixir. Where on earth did you get such a precious thing? There aren’t many of them even at home.”

“Hmm… I guess it’s better not to know.”

Let’s not say that it was purified from the blood of the light-haired senior in the sarangchae.

Arisha also knew the identity of the elixir because she often had the opportunity to sample something made of her blood.

“Anyway, your skills have improved a lot.”

“Is that so? Hehe…”

It feels good to receive praise. Also to my sister.

“I was immature in many ways during the festival, but now I feel like I’m getting the basics down. Please work harder.”

“Thanks… huh? Festival?”

“…….”

“You came to the festival….”

“The apples are salty.”

“yes?”

“Shave again.”

“Yes, yes… But, sister, I came to the festival…”

“What are you going to do if you don’t shave it off quickly?”

Runia keeps talking as if she has no intention of answering. Looking at the strong words and slightly reddened ears, Alisha gave a rare, comfortable smile.

“Thank you… sister.”

“…….”

“For saving me. For stopping me…”

Arisha carefully expressed her gratitude to her sister, who had been unable to talk to her so quickly.

“I said something useless.”

However, Runia’s reaction is cold. Just as I was about to cower at her cold attitude as always…

“What reason does a sister need to save her brother?”

“yes?”

“What is your last name?”

“Ah, Aden.”

“So what’s my last name?”

“Aden……”

“What is my relationship with you?”

“……sisters?”

“Don’t flinch when telling the truth. Keep your back straight and your shoulders straight. Why can’t you be confident in telling the obvious truth?”

“But…”

Alicia has always been a sinner.

Evidence of infidelity. The bastard of the family. An illegitimate son who threatens his wife’s children.

What right does she have to talk about her younger brother? The day when Runia, who I had always cared for, cut down her first person and was designated as a candidate for head of the family by Garand. Everything has changed.

“I am your sister and you are my sister. No matter what happens, that doesn’t change.”

“Ah…”

“No, it doesn’t stop. “The bond between you and Runia Aden will not be broken even if you die.”

Runia’s words reminded me of something I once heard from Corin.

Even if they are not biological sisters and compete to take what belongs to each other, this bond will never be broken. It doesn’t change that I’m your sister’s younger brother.

“Sister… are you okay? I might steal something from you.”

“Hehe… Huhahaha…!”

Runia laughs heartily at Alisha’s words. This was a rare sight for her, who was always cool-headed.

“Huh, sister?”

“It looks like they’ve gone so far as to think they might steal it. It’s a huge step forward.”

At those words, Alisha realizes. Alicia has always been insecure. Even though he was designated as the next head of the family like Runia, he did not think that he could become the head of the family.

Because my blood relative, Runia, was like a heavenly being in a far, high place.

Because everyone said that and I thought that too.

“Of course, I have no intention of being taken away quietly. But what if I was taken away? My abilities were not enough.”

As befits the reputation of a heroine, her expression is bold and does not hide her competitive spirit. Alicia was both embarrassed and happy to be able to see that kind of face on her sister.

I thought that I had grown up and that my sister treated me as an equal.

“But he has no intention of losing to immature ones. He seems to like mature women.”

“Yes? Him?”

What are you talking about? It was a puzzling feeling, but soon I realized it, and heat began to bloom in my cheeks.

“Oh no? Isn’t that what it is?”

“Well, cheer up. By the way, the engagement ceremony is in a week.”

“No! It’s not really!”

My sister leisurely pondered her sister’s denial.

* * * *

I was in the middle of having a meal with Marie and Hwaran, receiving hospitality from the Aden family.

“That’s right. I’m engaged.”

While I was eating, I suddenly felt like I needed to say something, so I said it out loud.

“Bah… what did you just say? Corrin.”

“betrothal…?”

The two people dropped the potatoes they were eating and chewed the fish bones.

“I decided to get engaged to Runia. I guess there’s a week left.”

“Now wait a minute. Corin? Corin? With Runia?”

“The person who is engaged to my brother… Are you talking about Alisha’s older sister?”

“Uh. We’re all busy so we don’t know each other, right? Let’s say hello.”

Come on! The paper door opens. Behind that door, a beautiful woman in uniform walked in.

“This is Runia Aden.”

“……”

“……”.

The two people looked at Runia with blank eyes. Everyone looks kind of… lost. Well, Runia is kind of cool.

Despite being injured, Runia came in with an upright posture and sat down next to me.

“We are in the same class as him.”

“That guy…”

“…”

Runia looked at the two of them, then smiled and pulled me in.

“……ah.”

Marie looked at me, dumbfounded. As if desperately wanting an explanation.

“Oh, that’s why…” ”

I’m planning an engagement ceremony with my fiancée in a week. If the eldest daughter of the Dunaref family and a nun from the Zeon Cathedral serve as bridesmaids, Aden will welcome your attendance. .”

“………….”

“………….”

The heavy silence continues. What is this atmosphere?

I didn’t do anything wrong, but I feel like I have to stand up and say I was wrong. But if I do that again, something bigger will happen…

“Uh, since when…”

“That’s it again.”

I unraveled the story I had told Runia about in advance.

Nominally, we are known to be in the midst of a fateful first meeting and burning love.

Of course, I have to tell Marie and Hwaran about this. Are you a bit surprised? I’m looking forward to seeing the dumbfounded expressions on the two people’s faces.

Hehe, can’t this also be considered a type of hidden camera?

“It was from then on. I fell in love with Runia-san.”

“When I saw his upright attitude despite his young age, I couldn’t help but fall in love with him.”

Runia seemed to have read my intentions and responded favorably. I haven’t seen it like that, but I heard she’s a surprisingly playful girl!

“…….”

Marie and Hwaran are becoming increasingly stiff. Ah, I’m afraid. My acting skills. Wouldn’t this be a hidden camera YouTuber’s talent on Earth?

“That’s how we met each other on the day of the full moon——”

“I’m going.”

At that moment, Marie suddenly wakes up. It wasn’t like her, who always maintained a polite and easy-going attitude.

“Uh, senior? Where are you going?”

“…….”

The glance he gave me was cold. For a moment, I was taken aback by the cold gaze of Marie, whom I saw for the first time.

“……One hundred years.”

She made an incomprehensible noise and crossed the paper gate.

“what?”

What was the problem in the context of the conversation just now? Just play for 5 more minutes and voila! It was Corin Locke’s hidden camera! It was supposed to be like this, but the actor left the filming set.

I don’t know what it is, but I need to clear up the misunderstanding. This is all a camouflage to help Runia and a contract engagement—

“Ugh… Ugh…!”

“La Rana?”

Oh no.

Ran looked like she was going to cry at any moment, but she forced herself to look like she was celebrating.

“Congratulations… oppa… that… congratulations… why… happiness… hmm…”

The words don’t continue, and in the end they are not completed as a sentence and become miserably distorted. .

“Why… why…”

In the end, when I saw Ran shedding tears, I realized that something was definitely wrong.

I was inconsiderate. Ran is a girl who said she liked me and sincerely asked me to marry her.

Because of his youthful appearance, I thought it must have been like his first love, but it was still very inconsiderate to announce the engagement news right in front of his eyes!!

no! This is a hidden camera, a hidden camera! No, I was wrong!

“Ran, this is all lies──”

Whip! Ran disappears. Because of Bicheon Yacha’s physical ability, there were no birds to chase.

“──I mean… it’s not real…”

“You are a sinful person, my fiancé.”

“Ah… how do I fix this?”

“I don’t know.”

Runia just smiled mischievously.

* * * *

In the end, Marie and Hwaran were not found until night came.

I had planned to resolve this misunderstanding as soon as we met, but the problem is that I don’t even know where the two people are.

“Ha… I should hit the head right away.”

I’m not going to stay out overnight, so I’ll meet tomorrow at dinner and resolve any misunderstandings.

That’s it… Most of them display information in my status window that I don’t have permission to view.

『Sun God Corin Locke Argetlam.』

– Acquire the light of Sun Agatlam.

– God bless you while the sun shines.

Sun Klau Solas. This is the weapon used by the king’s servant Ohad Breath in the previous episode. In the previous episode of

Beauty King Ohad Breath,

I had a tough relationship with him.

The battle he used, Klau Solas, marked the finale of [The Legend of Arhan Heroes].

Solar concentration. Implementation of the sun. solar compression. Ohad Breath Raid pattern that consists of three stages. This mighty power of the sun is the strongest in history.

Unless you are Park Si-hoo, who dominated all the opportunities and far surpassed the players of the original game, a power battle would not be possible.

However, Klau Solas also had a fatal weakness: it was too powerful.

As seen on Sky Island, even at the concentration stage, it was a significant amount of magical power consumption.

Is this an item for raid bosses? It would be difficult to use unless connected to a specific spiritual vein and supplied with nearly infinite magical power.

‘Well, okay. Klau Solas is not only powerful in himself, but also powerful in his divine protection.’

【Blessing of the Sun】

– As long as it is exposed to sunlight, no heat or fire can harm Argetlam.

– Accumulates the power of the sun in proportion to the amount of magic power. (Current magic power: low to medium 7320)

The core of the sun’s protection is the ability to completely resist heat and fire.

As long as you have Klau Solas, it’s safe to say that things like fire-type systems don’t work at all, and you don’t get hot.

Considering the heat that Klau Solas gives off, it is natural protection.

The important thing is to accumulate the power of the sun.

In the previous episode, I fully realized what this power, accumulated by absorbing inexhaustible magical energy, can do.

‘Compared to the previous episode, Balthazar’s subordinates were greatly reduced.’

The king’s subordinate Permak was dealt with during the King of Iron Mountain incident, and although it was a coincidence, killing the Sword Demon here was the best unexpected result.

Lastly, this power originally belonged to the king’s servant, Ohad Breath. The difficulty of conquering Ohad Breath without the sun will drop significantly.

On the other hand, unlike before when I was helpless without players, I now have reliable colleagues.

Much sooner than expected… Arisha, who became stronger than the original, and Marie, who was scheduled to disappear from history… And Balthazar’s Sword Demon level extra boss character── -Knock

knock!

“Who are you?”

“It’s me, brother.”

Bicheon Yacha Hwaran.

Because she was supporting me too.

I guess I’ll have to clear up the misunderstanding first.

-Drop!

The paper door opens and Ran enters my room, wearing Arden-style pajamas.

I usually only wore black nun clothes, and that suited Hwaran, but as the atmosphere changed to Hwaran, these white traditional pajamas also looked good.

“So what’s going on?”

“…….”

The blue-eyed girl didn’t answer what I said, but just came into the room and lay down on my bed.

“I’m going to sleep here.”

“…Are you mad?”

As once happened, Ran commits a bold act that blows away the men and women of all ages.

“……okay.”

We need to resolve the misunderstanding and appease the two people, so let’s talk for a while.

“Ran, what does your brother have to say…”

“I don’t want to talk to you.”

“Uh…”

I was instantly taken aback by Ran’s cold tone.

Well… it’s worth it. Since I boasted about my fiancé in front of the child who said he liked me and asked me to marry him…

“Okay, let’s lie down and talk first.”

It’s cold and winter hasn’t gone yet. I covered Ran with a thick blanket and laid her down on the bed.

“…….”

“……..”

We had a moment of silence on the bed.

In a dark room where the only light is the moon, we stare at each other so much that we can even catch the movement of each other’s lips.

It was Ran who broke the silence first. Ran gently strokes my hair with her slender fingers and lets out a heavy sigh.

“You were hurt a lot. Are you okay?”

“You know, regeneration. Look, the new skin has grown the same as before, right?”

“…It’s different. It’s completely different.”

With a sad smile, Ran lightly brushes my bangs.

“I told you not to get hurt.”

“Huh? That’s right.”

“When my brother gets hurt, I get angry and my heart hurts. Please wait until I come…”

“I didn’t have time. I’m sorry.”

“It’s our fault that we were late. If it hadn’t been for that illusion…”

“A illusion? Ah~ What kind of illusion did you see?”

“I dream of my brother marrying someone else.”

-Cough!

No, no matter what kind

of fantasy you see

…

Regardless of whether she is a tea or a strong woman, Hwaran is ultimately a teenage girl with a temper tantrum.

The experience in the illusion couldn’t have been that pleasant. The illusion of seeing the person you like marry someone else must have further stimulated the fake engagement.

“brother.”

“huh?”

Ran narrowed the distance between me and me on the bed and came into close contact. Then he wraps his hands around my neck, clasps his fingers, and raises the corners of his mouth.

“Do you know what I was thinking when I had that vision?”

“What were you thinking…?”

Ran clings tightly to me, giving strength to the fingers he held. Cheek to cheek, he whispers in my ear.

“My brother is always mine. I have no intention of giving it to anyone else.”

Although these words were spoken kindly, they were no different from a declaration of war. No matter who I date in the future, I have no intention of giving up.

“Uh… Is that so?”

Ran is giggling with a sexy expression. Unlike Hwa’s blunt attitude, Ran… truly has a talent for shaking men up.

“So, brother.”

Ran releases her hands from around my neck and spreads out both palms. Although it was only for a moment, Ran blushed with embarrassment.

“Can you… hold my hand?”

“That’s about it.”

He holds out his palm with a wide open palm. Even though she is twice as tall as me, Ran’s strength to put her hand on my palm is far superior to mine.

“My brother gave me permission.”

“huh?”

Ran jumps up and jumps on me as if to attack me. Why is he like this?

“I’m going to sleep like this, holding both hands tightly.”

“Uh… really?”

Won’t you get heat rash?

“It’s too late. It’s too late to resist…”

“???”

“It’s all your fault.”

“Miiiiian?”

Ran holds my hand tightly and buries her face in my chest. Ran couldn’t see because his face was buried, but even his exposed ears were dyed red, so it seemed like he was embarrassed by this situation.

Well, if she’s as dumb as Hwa, Ran is the daughter of a well-to-do family, so she would be embarrassed just because a man and a woman sleep in the same bed.

“It’s all… because it was my brother’s fault.”

“Okay, okay, I was wrong. Do whatever you want.”

Ran’s eyelids slowly droop. He looked like a warrior ready to die, so I couldn’t say anything more than that.

Well… I don’t know the meaning of holding both hands while sleeping.
