EP – 019.2 – Class (2)
I had no intention of provoking the guy that much.
All I wanted was to experint on the gift’s reach.
[ Target ‘Tallion’s anger has reached the threshold! ]
[ Giving indelible sha! ]
[ Negative tendency has been imprinted! ]
[ Rewards Available! ]
[ Skill: Evil Ruler has been activated. Obtained 1 command right over the target! ]
“…”
It worked so well.
Well, it wasn’t really anything special in the first place.
It was an obvious route that any freshn would take. A talent like Tallion would’ve done the sa.
That’s why I just went ahead and tried to hit all my targets.
I even threw in so of these lines, just in case the provocation wasn’t enough; ‘It’s really amazing! You’re always behind!’ ‘Thanks for the materials!’ ‘Thank you for your incompetence!’ ‘If you try a bit harder, you might catch up!’
All of which were from the original story.
The polite sarcasm was pristine.
That’s roughly… I’ve repeated it about 25 tis.
“…”
Well, he’s really mad ‘mad’ right now.
Thinking so, I quickly ran away from the pursuing Tallion.
I couldn’t care less about class, I’m about to get skewered by a damn spear!
[ Danger Detected. ]
[ Determined as attempt to injure. ]
[ Skill: Desperation raised to C Class. ]
This even ca up.
I wouldn’t die, but the model student was definitely angry enough that he’d break my jaw.
‘The problem is…’
If he keeps chasing like this, I’ll eventually have to face him at so point.
I really don’t want to fight Tallion right now.
President Atallante herself warned to not stand out. Nothing good will happen, especially since this guy is related to the big boss, Purifier.
Angering him is fine, but if I fight and accidently hamred him too hard, I’m risking of losing the ‘connection point’ between him and the Purifier.
I don’t want that.
“Hey!”
So, I tried to talk it out with Tallion, who’s still chasing with a hideous look from behind.
“Look, let’s just say it’s my loss and split the harvest in half. How about that?”
[ Danger Escalated. ]
[ Determined as attempt to seriously injure. ]
[ Skill: Desperation raised to B Class. ]
“…”
Well that didn’t work.
I wasn’t even trying to agitate him this ti.
Right now, I just kept running away from the angry, demonic Tallion.
‘…But won’t I eventually get caught like this?’
After all, this was a man who could closely keep up Elijah. Even with the B Class Desperation, I feel like I’m losing terms of speed.
If he does catch up, won’t I have to fight him?
While I was contemplating on my next move, soone suddenly appeared in front of and I nearly crashed into them.
“…!”
I almost ate dirt because of my forceful stop. Fortunately, the person grabbed before that could happen.
“What are you doing, sir?”
Elijah sighed, while patting her forehead. Beside her was a tired, panting priestess.
‘It’s Trisha.’
She was the Hero Party’s Healer. She was nicknad as the ‘Natural Lie Detector’ because of her ability to see other people’s emotions.
As I briefly glanced at the familiar face, Elijah calmly said.
“Trisha, can you isolate us?”
“Uh, en!”
A hemispherical barrier then ford around us, which blocks people’s perception.
Elijah continued.
“You could’ve just peacefully co with us. Why are you running around in a such place?”
“…No, there’s a reason for this.”
She turned her head in dissatisfaction.
“So what’s the reason? We saved you, so you should tell us that much.”
Although Elijah sounded normal, seeing Trisha’s contemplative face on the side was indicating that she’s having so… ‘violent’ thoughts.
It’s clear that she’s angry with my response.
“…”
That thought flashed through my mind.
However, making Tallion angry and her angry were on different levels of importance.
Who knows what sort of strange effects getting stained by ‘negative tendency’ brings.
It might not be a big deal for a mid-chapter boss, but sothing like that on the protagonist would undoubtedly cause a butterfly effect.
So, what now?
The lie detector Trisha was next to her so an excuse would just backfire.
For now, let’s go with the truth.
“That guy started the fight first.”
“Fight?”
“He asked why a guy like is friends with you.”
At this ti, both Elijah and Trisha’s expressions beca strange.
“…?”
Was this really such a surprise?
“…Why would you fight over sothing like that, no. I guess he probably thought of you as a scamr or sothing.”
After muttering that, Elijah looked at with a puzzled expression.
“Then why don’t you just ignore him? Tallion is pretty strong. And you said that we’re not even close…”
"
"
“How can I ignore that?”
It’s literally a test subject served in a silver platter.
“…”
Hearing this, Elijah cleared her throat while turning her head slightly.
Her nape was slightly red.
… Is she still angry about this?
Am I not speaking nothing but truth right now?
“…”
“…”
anwhile, Trisha’s eyes started to twinkle when she heard and poked Elijah in the side.
Imdiately after, Elijah asked.
“…Sir, did you know that this would happen?”
“What do you an?”
“Did you know that he would act like that from the beginning?”
Did I know that Tallion would be so angry?
I purposely agitated him so how could I not know?
“How can I not know? Anyone with so sense can tell.”
“…Is that why you didn’t co with before? Were you afraid that he’d harm too?”
“…?”
Uh, no?
I don’t understand what provoking Tallion has got to do with you being hard.
[ Favorability of the target ‘Elijah’ has been increased! ]
[ The favorabilty level has been upgraded to ‘Interest Level 2’! ]
[ Rewards Available! ]
[ Due to the good inclination of the character, the reward has been reduced! ]
“…”
I had no clue why this suddenly popped up here.
While I was at a loss, Elijah sighed and turned her head to Trisha.
“Trisha, would you mind removing the barrier?”
“Uh, why?”
“Nothing, it’s just.”
After saying that, she suddenly reached for her sword.
“I’ve always hated nosy people. Especially ddling in others’ relationships.”
“…Uh, Elijah?”
Trisha stiffly called out.
Elijah’s current expression wasn’t sothing a hero candidate should have.
“You have to return the favor of harming your friend in the sa way, right?”
‘I haven’t been able to relieve so stress lately. This is good.’
As she muttered sothing like that, the following ssage appeared:
"
"
[ Target ‘Elijah’ has been influenced by you and is feeling intense anger towards target ‘Tallion’! ]
[ Negative tendency has been imprinted! ]
[ Rewards Available! ]
[ Skill: Evil Ruler has been activated. Obtained 1 command right over the target! ]
“…”
What’s this.
What the hell is going on?
