I Became a Villain who Receives Obsession

46 – Midterm (3)

‘In addition… .’

Reina clasped her white hands as she looked at the garden through the window.

again

Chasing after the man who rejected her invitation, she was now standing alone in the hallway.

-no. You don’t have to do that. How about doing it with Jed over there?

I was sorry that I had declined during the last mana amplification class, so I specially invited him, but he refused to come back.

Do you think he did it because he liked it? He was just trying to repay him as a human to human being.

I didn’t then, but for some reason I felt a throbbing pain in my chest when he refused.

As if you’ve felt it before-

It is not that there is no separate disease.

‘why?’

no. Maybe he’s pretending not to know.

The relationship with him is now over.

Again, no matter where he is or what he does, it has absolutely nothing to do with her.

So-

So it doesn’t matter to her whether Rihanna is friendly with the white-haired girl or not.

The girl, who had a gloomy expression at first, exchanged a few words with Lian, and soon a smile spread across her face.

Rian didn’t laugh, but it gave off a different atmosphere from the Reina that Reina had seen so far.

Reina quietly clenched her fists.

How much effort did you make to change him over the course of two years?

Even after giving him a cheek, he went to those who cursed at him at the banquet, denied it, and decorated it as much as possible so that he would return to the way he used to be.

Not only that, but to please him, I played an intelligent princess as much as possible and persuaded my father, who was urging me to break off the engagement, every day.

Even so, Ryan has not changed.

By the way-

‘Elain… I said.’

A girl named Elaine changed him in less than a month.

He, who hadn’t shown a smile even once, even smiled slightly, and he, who hated approaching me extremely, allowed me to sit next to him.

In a short period of time, even a month, he did what he hadn’t been able to do.

Did that girl change, or did Lian change while meeting that girl?

No, the signs were visible not too long ago.

The color of Lian she saw with her inner eye.

From the time I saw gray mixed with white, not the black I had seen before.

It was then.

Elaine handed Lian a letter wrapped in black.

Lian looked at it carefully, then accepted it and checked the letter.

Seeing this, Rayna’s heart started beating faster.

The reason why the opposite sex sends a letter to the opposite sex. No matter how much I thought about it, only one came to mind.

Lips that naturally curl up.

Soon, Reina turned her gaze to the garden.

It was to go back to class and make a pair. It was a failure that I followed just in case.

It may have been too late, but she was determined to pair up with Jed as a last resort.

“Uh, Miss Aisten?”

Reina’s steps were blocked by a blonde student who appeared in front of her.

“Siegfried?”

A blond haired handsome man with a nice smile on his face, he was Siegfried of the same class as Reina.

“What were you doing here? Looking at it, it doesn’t look like they’ve paired up yet.”

“… For a while, I came out because I had something to think about.”

“ah… I see.”

Although she still had a smile on her face, Reina felt an unknown awkwardness from Siegfried.

The last time she saw it with her mind’s eye, she had consciously distanced herself from Siegfried since seeing that pitch-black color.

It may look good on the outside, but it’s because I felt displeasure with him for some reason.

His tall height and handsome appearance were points that attracted many people, but strangely, Reina couldn’t feel affection for him.

Reina asked, slowly stepping away from Siegfried.

“What are you doing here? Are you already paired up?”

“Oh, I didn’t really make it either.”

“There must have been a lot of people visiting.”

“that is… It must have been burdensome because everyone was trying to do it.”

Siegfried shook his head slowly with a bitter smile.

Rayna looked at him suspiciously. Apparently, there must have been female students around him.

‘Should I go back?’

It was the time when I was about to go back after giving a rough answer as always.

“If you don’t mind, Miss Aistin. Would you like to pair with me?”

“… Yes?”

It was a sound that came out of nowhere.

Reina stopped walking and turned around to look at Siegfried.

An unwavering gaze and a serious expression.

At least it didn’t seem like a lie.

Reina asked him in a voice full of questions.

“Why are you inviting me?”

“Actually, I saw Miss Aistin fight during the entrance ceremony. Using ice magic to bind opponents and subdue them with swordsmanship. It was really cool.”

“Thank you for the compliment, but I’m the one who’s already decided to—”

“Was it Altean-kun?”

I was speechless.

I should have said no, but strangely, the words didn’t come out.

Siegfried laughed once seeing Reina like that, then continued talking.

“Altain-kun seemed to be heading somewhere earlier. Could it be that he had an appointment?”

I know that.

Even now, right next to me, we’re talking nice to each other.

“It seems that Zed of the Theseus family also had a relationship with Hans earlier. Most of them are now in pairs.”

“… .”

“The only ones left will be Miss Aisten and me. Like Altein-kun, there were also kids who paired up with other classes.”

Reina remembered the day of the entrance ceremony.

Not all, but there were a few memorable ones.

Among them was that Siegfried.

A method of handling a wooden sword freely and subduing it by digging into the opponent’s arms at once.

As if looking at Lian, his agile movements and excellent swordsmanship showed why he was assigned to Class A.

If you pair up with him, of course you will be able to get good grades in the midterm exam.

At least it was clear that the odds would be better than with students from other classes.

‘And… .’

Mind is not omnipotent.

The tendency of the person you judge by talking directly to seeing the color of the person through ability may be different.

Isn’t Lian a typical example?

The color of Lian, who exuded a dark aura, changed. I don’t know why he suddenly changed, but at least it was certain that he was different from before.

Therefore, being paired with Siegfried was also an opportunity to find out what kind of existence he was.

Is he really dangerous

Or is it someone who can change like Ryan.

“Thoroughly, this is Miss Aistin’s choice. If you don’t like it, I’ll give up.”

Looking at Siegfried, who raised both hands and seemed harmless, Reina was deeply troubled.

The owner of the same color as the jet black she had never seen before.

What does this really mean?

“… like. Let me do that.”

It was a simple curiosity.

It is said that he exudes an unpleasant aura, but it might change color like Lian, and in any case, it was important to remain in Class A through the midterm evaluation.

And if he was going to do something stupid, Reina was confident that he could subdue him.

When Rayna agrees, Siegfried noticeably likes it and nods his head.

“Oh, thank you! Thank you so much! I was a bit reluctant to do it with a kid from another class. Oh, and speaking of practice… .”

“Even if you say evaluation, it’s just a duel with a team of two. You don’t need to practice separately.”

“uh… Well, shouldn’t we still try to match the sum?”

Siegfried looked visibly flustered as if he had intended to meet them separately.

Reina shook her head and said, erasing any possibility.

“Anyway, I’m the back, you’re the front. And if your skills are good enough to defeat other classes, there won’t be any change just by matching the sum.”

“uh… is it?”

“Is that sword your weapon?”

Reina asked, pointing to the blue long sword stuck in Siegfried’s waist.

“Uh, yes. Luckily, I recently got one. It feels just right in my hand.”

Siegfried took the sword out of its scabbard and raised it.

The sight of the blade tinged with sunlight gave it a different feel from normal swords.

It would be right to see it as bright.

“I’ll have Instructor Bella apply for a pair request, so go back first.”

“Uh, can I go with you?”

“… Nope. I am enough alone.”

Looking through the window at Rian and Elaine, who got up and started moving, Raina moved on.

Siegfried didn’t give a damn about Reina’s resolute attitude.

*

“Whoa.”

After submitting the pair application form with Elaine, I immediately returned to my dorm room and threw myself on the bed.

The idea of midterm evaluation has long since been abandoned. The evaluation will be stopped midway anyway, because something more important than that is waiting.

I took out my attitude, put it on the desk, and sat in front of it.

Apparently Altair had borrowed the power of Ishtar to annihilate the demons.

And Ishtar’s body is weakened by repeated contracts.

If I die in battle with Majin, she will have to find a new host again without gaining the body of the Altyn family.

There’s no way she can find a new contractor because her power isn’t perfect, so in the end, from her point of view, I’m the one who shouldn’t die.

‘So it must have been a grace period. So that I can sow the seeds of Altane.’

Ishtar’s power is needed to deal with the approaching Mine.

Like when I’m up against the Ent. If you can handle the power of Ishtar, you will be able to avoid causing casualties in this Mine Attack.

‘If it’s for that.’

You should try negotiating first.
