chapter 19
19. class (2)
●
In the ‘Hero Party’ organized around Elijah, Trisha’s position as a priest is a little subtle.
Because there’s not much for her to do in battle or anything.
But even so, if she is never ignored in the group, it must be because she has her own strengths.
She was always in charge of ventilating the atmosphere so that everyone could get along.
And in the position of being in charge of such a role, Trisha was currently feeling a tremendous crisis.
‘It’s a big deal…!’
Although the influence of divine power on people varies greatly, it is already a widely known fact that it awakens special abilities to each individual.
And Trisha’s ability is that she can visually read the other person’s emotions.
‘Why is he like this…?’
When she saw Elijah, she trembled within herself.
Her face was smiling as usual, but the emotions observed in her eyes were violently fluctuating inside.
To put it bluntly, I’m mad like crazy…!
“…With this, the last.”
Luka said, cutting the wolf-shaped phantom beast in two with a huge double-edged axe.
“Seeing that strong phantom beasts are deployed, it seems that there is something around here.”
“Exactly.”
Falco raised his monocle and listened to Luca’s words. His eyes were fixed on the bluish rocks scattered nearby.
“It is a rare mineral field. You won’t get a low score if you take just a few.”
“Uh, then Luca will move everything.”
“…come and help you too, Grid.”
As Grid dragged along with a languid expression, Trisha wordlessly approached Elijah.
It wasn’t like he was taking something out of his mouth, but it was clear that he had been thinking hard about something with his mouth shut for a while.
In the first place, even now, emotions are overflowing with insidious colors from the inside. I can’t leave it alone because I’m anxious because I’m just watching it.
“Hey, Elijah.”
“yes?”
“Do you have any concerns?”
When Trisha spoke so cautiously, Elijah shook his head with a broad smile.
“No, there is nothing.”
lie.
As he said that, black energy was still welling up inside him.
“If you have any trouble, I will listen to you. I want you to tell me without hiding it.”
“Ah, you are my friend. You guys have none of that.”
…lie.
Tricia broke out in a cold sweat.
Emotions are basically a strong expression of a person’s disposition, and if you observe what color they usually have, you can roughly know what their ‘tendency’ is.
If Trisha is the most unusual person I’ve seen lately, it’s Princess Tristan and Elijah.
Gongnyeo is basically gray with nothing on it, but sometimes black things rise from within. A black color that is so dark and sticky that it is not often seen.
Although it looks like you’re trying hard to suppress it.
‘…I’ve seen it a few times.’
It’s not a common type, but if there are people similar to the Duke of Tristan, she’s personally confirmed a few.
On the other hand, Elijah.
‘Really, it’s strange.’
Usually, people who are insidious at all have a dark mind as a whole. Because I always radiate those feelings.
However, Elijah always maintains a color close to pure white, but sometimes black colors appear that startle even Trisha.
Possessiveness, dominance, monopoly, something like that.
As if, whenever a good person like this thinks of ‘someone’, something like that comes out.
Maybe you’re not even aware of it right now.
‘…Obviously it wasn’t like that before.’
It feels like that since I went to the freshmen welcome party. The demons were released, but fortunately they were subdued without casualties.
what happened there?
“Still, you’ve been thinking about something ever since.”
And right now, I’m so angry that those colors are sticking out to the front.
If I don’t appease her, she can’t live because she’s anxious.
“…are you tired? Trisha can’t stand it. He’s really good at recognizing lies.”
Oh, I’m serious this time.
Trisha smiled in relief when she saw the white light soaring from Elijah’s insides.
Then she squeezed her hair hard to keep the conversation going.
At what point did he get so angry…?
“Ah, by any chance that Dowd Campbell-“
Trisha immediately shut up.
Because I saw Elijah’s emotions covered in black again.
It was even more frightening because the expression on his face was still wide-eyed.
“Well, that person is right.”
But fortunately, the story seems to be told.
“No, I’ve had some things to do with him lately…”
Elijah, who was so lucky, told a story like this.
How did you become friends because you asked to be close? Recently, I owed a little something, so I even acted as a dove of love to the person he liked. If you did that to someone from the family of the Duke of Tristan, who is your enemy, at least there’s nothing to be ruthlessly dismissed as unfriendly…
Seeing Elijah pouring out such sentences, Trisha blinked blankly several times.
This, I hope.
“Elijah, do you think you are a real friend?”
“…uh?”
Seeing Elijah’s embarrassed question, Trisha hurriedly shut her mouth.
When he spoke, he saw Elijah’s emotions mixed up inside him, and these were the words he said without realizing it.
When they were together, no matter what happened, the color of their emotions didn’t even budge.
“Oh, nothing!”
“…”
But Trisha, who saw Elijah silenced after hearing those words, was suffering from an almost suffocating tension.
It’s the first face you see He hesitated as if he had never thought of such a thing before. Inside, the emotions that were already emitting turbid colors are mixed in a more chaotic jumble.
“…But, they said they weren’t close to each other and drew a line at all?”
As Elijah struggled to come up with that answer, Trisha’s face became more contemplative.
Inside the other person, darker things were creeping up. Emotions that were normally white were now changing to a generally dingy feeling.
I have to say something to comfort you…!
“I-I don’t think that person meant that!”
“Then why are you saying that?”
how do i know that
But I wouldn’t be able to say that.
“Isn’t that because he cares about you?”
“…Consideration?”
“Isn’t that Dawood a baron with no background? If someone like you is next to someone with the title of candidate for hero, there will definitely be people who are dissatisfied…! In the sense of preventing that from happening…!”
“…”
Tricia managed to squeeze out an excuse.
The evidence was weak, but at least she wasn’t wrong in her opinion.
“…”
Actually, Elijah, who heard that, was also holding his chin for a while and thinking about it.
“…Is it usually like that? No, it seems like that person usually does something like that without saying a word to anyone… But even so, it’s only between friends…”
“Everything, if you ask me next time, I’ll definitely say that I didn’t mean it when I said we weren’t close! yes!”
“…Do you want to?”
“I draw a line with you a little bit until my reputation is clear! Deep inside I feel a lot of intimacy with you…! There is or…!”
“…is it?”
please stop asking questions
Understand and release your anger.
Trisha thought with her twinkling eyes.
“Oh, wait. Isn’t that Talion?”
And fortunately for Tricia, such words came out from a group of men who were diligently gathering minerals next to them.
“where?”
“It’s about a 30-minute walk from here.”
“…Can you see that, Grid?”
Those were the words that flowed from Grid, who was staring into the distance for a long time.
It must have the eyesight of a marksman in charge of a long-range projectile weapon.
“If it’s Talion… that Viscount Armand? Are you good at using spears?”
“But it’s a bit strange. I’ve never seen him so angry. Are you still muttering curse words?”
“…swearing?”
“okay. Let’s see…”
Grid frowned and focused on Talion’s mouth.
“…is. kill. Dog-like cheater. kill. I’ll make you a skewer… Whoa, be bloody.”
Grid’s words tilted everyone’s heads.
Talion of the Viscount Armande is a man who is no different from the extreme of model and restraint that anyone knows.
Why would such a person be so angry in class?
“…”
only one.
Except for Elijah, who flinched in response to the word ‘swindler’.
●
Actually, I had no intention of provoking the other person that much.
I was just going to play around with it a little bit and experiment little by little to see how far the gift ability can be applied.
[Target ‘Talion’s anger has crossed the critical point! ]
[It gives you an indelible sense of shame! ]
[ Negative effects are imprinted! ]
[ Receiveable rewards are given! ]
[Skill: Dominion of Evil is activated. You get 1 command right that can be used on the target! ]
“…”
It worked so well.
There’s nothing wrong with what you did.
In fact, it’s obvious to say that it’s a route that can come out from a freshman’s point of view. That’s the same even if it’s Talion, who has freshman-level skills.
That’s why I just went ahead and ate all of the moving targets he was aiming for.
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Just in case the provocation effect wasn’t enough, I told Talion, who always arrived later than me, ‘You’re so amazing! You’re late!’ ‘Thank you for the good ingredients!’ ‘Thank you for your inexperience!’ ‘With a little more effort, I should be able to catch up!’ I just threw out lines like that.
All of them are the voices that were output when using Priest skills in the original work.
The polite sarcastic tone is truly excellent.
Roughly… I repeated it about 25 times.
“…”
Come to think of it, I think I was just as angry as I was.
Thinking so, I eagerly run away from Talion, who is chasing me.
I don’t care about class, and now I’m in a state where my eyes are upside down because I want to drive a spear into my body somehow.
[ A crisis situation is detected. ]
[ Judging by the level of intent to injure. ]
[Skill: Applies desperate crisis to C grade. ]
I wonder if something like this will open.
I wouldn’t die from being hit, but that model student was at least angry enough to want to put my jawbone back.
‘the problem is…’
If they chase after you like that, they say you have to stick with them at least once.
I don’t really like fighting Talion now.
President Atalante also warned me that nothing good would happen if I caught my eye, and that guy is directly related to the final boss, the Purifier.
I don’t know if it just makes you angry, but if you directly fight and smash it, there is a risk of erasing the ‘connection point’ between this guy and the Purifier.
it’s kind of like that
“hey!”
So, I try to talk to Talion, who is chasing me with a hideous look from behind.
“Do you want me to just take the loss and divide my harvest in half?”
[The crisis situation is escalating. ]
[ Judging by the level of intent to seriously injure. ]
[Skill: Applies Desperation to Grade B. ]
“…”
Uh, not even the seeds were eaten.
I wasn’t kidding this time.
I keep running after Talion, who has changed into a more demonic form than before.
‘…By the way, if I keep running away like this, I’ll be caught?’
No matter how desperate it is, that is the elite of the ability to chase Elijah down to the chin. I feel like I’m a bit behind in speed with the B-class application.
If it catches up, then do we really have to fight?
As I was thinking about it, I almost bumped into a human who suddenly jumped out in front of me.
“…!”
He grabs the center of gravity that is about to collapse as it hastily stopped.
“What are you doing, sir?”
Elijah touched his forehead and let out a sigh. There was one priest who was running to the side while blushing.
‘It’s Trisha.’
The role of the priest in the warrior party. Users nicknamed it ‘Biometric Lie Detector’. It is a nickname given to him because he has the ability to see the other person’s emotions with his eyes.
As I turned my gaze to that side of the face I knew for a moment, Elijah continued with a calm voice.
“Trisya. Is it possible to impede awareness?”
“Yes!”
A hemispherical circle is then drawn around it. It is a barrier that prevents those around you from recognizing this side carelessly.
Elijah then threw words in this direction with a calm expression.
“You can just make peace with us. Why are you arguing in a strict place again?”
“…No, this is all for a reason.”
The boy’s head turned in dissatisfaction.
“What is the matter? I saved you, so you can tell me that much.”
Her voice was still flat, but seeing Trisha’s face contemplative from the side, it seems like she’s having quite… ‘violent’ thoughts on the inside.
It’s proof that I’m angry with you for answering like this.
“…”
My mind flashes at that thought.
What makes Talion angry and what makes this guy angry is of a different level of importance.
You just got a gift that gives you all sorts of strange effects if you get stained with ‘negative tendencies’.
I don’t know if it’s just the boss in the middle of the chapter, but I don’t know what kind of butterfly effect will happen if I do that to the ‘protagonist’, the main character of the scenario.
So, what.
Next to her is Trisha, a biometric lie detector. Cowardly excuses will have a bad effect.
Let’s tell the truth now.
“That guy got into a fight first.”
“Sibi?”
“Why did someone like me ask you to be friends?”
Elijah and Trisha’s expressions became strange at the same time.
“…?”
Is this such a surprise?
“…Why are you arguing over something like that, no. I can understand it if you think of it as a scammer or something.”
How does that really happen right away?
After muttering that, Elijah looked at me with a puzzled expression.
“Then why don’t we just leave it alone? Talion is still pretty strong. According to the teacher, we’re not very close…”
“How can you ignore that?”
There’s an object popping up right in front of me to feel free to test out how the gift works.
“…”
Elijah, who heard me, turned his head slightly and cleared his throat.
The nape of the neck is slightly red.
…Are you still mad about this?
Am I just telling the truth as much as possible?
“…”
“…”
But Trisha’s eyes started to twinkle when she heard me. He then pokes Elijah in the side. It’s like asking something.
Elijah reluctantly opened his mouth.
“…sensei, did you know in advance that this would happen?”
“Is it going to be like this?”
“Did you know from the start that he would act like that?”
What, did you know Talion would be so angry?
Then I deliberately scratched my temper, don’t you know?
“Can you not know? If anyone notices something.”
“…So you didn’t go out with me from the beginning? Are you afraid that those guys will come out and harm me too?”
“…?”
uh no?
I don’t know what it has to do with me scratching my Talion temper and avoiding you.
[The favorability of the target ‘Elijah’ increases! ]
[The affinity level has been upgraded to ‘interest level 2’! ]
[ Receiveable rewards are added! ]
[Because it is a good character, the reward is reduced! ]
“…”
And I don’t know why it pops up all of a sudden.
Stunned, he sighed and turned his head to Trisha.
“Trisya. Would you mind clearing the barrier?”
“uh. why?”
“No, just.”
After saying that, the guy reached for the scabbard.
“I’ve always hated people who are messy. Especially in human relationships.”
“…Uh, Elijah?”
Tricia summoned Elijah with a hard look.
What you’re wearing on your face right now probably doesn’t look like a suitable expression for a candidate for the hero.
“Anyone who touches a friend should return the same. is not it?”
I haven’t been able to relieve the stress lately. that is great.
I could hear him muttering like that.
[The target ‘Elijah’ is affected by you and has a fierce anger at the target ‘Talion’! ]
[ Negative effects are imprinted! ]
[ Receiveable rewards are given! ]
[Skill: Dominion of Evil is activated. You get 1 command right that can be used on the target! ]
“…”
what is this
What’s the situation?
