Volume 1 - CH 19

After that, a person who seemed to be a lecturer entered the classroom where Julis and the others were.

The dormitories were naturally separated for boys and girls.

In addition to that, the dormitory is one room for two people────in other words, there is a roommate.

Therefore, Julis opened the door to his room, hoping that his roommate was not a strange person.

Then────

[Hmmpsh!…… Pheew, what my good muscles.]

There, posing before the mirror, was a young man in just his underwear, immersed in satisfaction.

“……”

Julis was at a loss for words.

At any rate, it seemed that his hopes of not being in a room with a strange person had been dashed.

(……No, maybe I just saw wrong.)

Julis held his eyes and told himself that he was mistaken.

So he went outside and opened the door again.

And then────

“Naisu, Badeee~……”

This time, a young man was posing differently.

It seems that reality won’t let him escape.

“……Mm? Are you, my roommate?”

Then the young man noticed Julis’s presence, who froze with his mouth open.

He approached Julis, made a pose of pulling his pectoral major muscles, then groaned while he was only in his underpants.

“No, probably it’s just your guess.”

With the powerful thigh muscles came into view, and Julis reflexively denied them.

He was sure this was inevitable.

“Hmm? Aren’t you Julis Anderberg?”

“……Yes.”

Apparently, it’s not really a mistake.

Julis let out a voice of giving up and sadness.

“Oh! then, nice to meet you! I’m Richardo Laxtan────the second son of the Count of Laxtan!”

“……Viscount Anderberg’s eldest son────I am Julis Anderberg.”

The other party seemed to be a person whose rank was higher than Julis’.

So Julis reflexively used a tone of respect────well, the tone of his voice became blurrier, though.

“Hey hey, I don’t like that kind of tone. I’m not good at that kind of thing!”

Gahhhahhaahhaaa, Richardo laughed gaily.

I don’t like that kind of tone! Julis wondered why many people around him disliked that stiff tone.

“More than that, as I thought, you were in the S class as well, right!”

“…… as I thought?”

“Hmm? You don’t know? The S class is for the top 20 students based on their entrance exam scores and qualities!”

The S Class is a class for promising students and those with high entrance exam scores.

Therefore, the fact that a student has been classified to the S class inevitably means that he or she is one of the most talented students in the grade.

The reason why Julis and the others didn’t know about this is that this is not publicly announced, but rather their parents tell them that there is such a system.

“I don’t know about it. I don’t even know what the point of S class is.”

Julis was irritated by the biceps in front of him, and he spoke his question in a slightly stronger tone. Julis’ respectful tone disappeared in an instant.

But this is also unavoidable────a man’s muscles are just disgusting.

“Oh? Is that because they say you’re inept?”

“……Yea.”

Julis is inept who is despised by those around him.

If magic is emphasized, and young people with a lot of talent enter the S class, he didn’t understand how he got in────Julis thought so.

But────

“Huh? But I don’t think you’re an Inept.”

He turned his gaze to Julis as if to say, “What the h*ll is in their heads?”

Julis was surprised and opened his eyes wide.

“Maybe people around you think you’re Inept, but I was at that exam site────I also saw with my own eyes the moment you defeated Byrne-sama in an instant.”

“……”

“There’s no one who can despise you an Inept after being shown that. If there is, he or she is just a fool, and the real inept.”

Julis was simply amazed. Richardo gave him serious eyes without any disdain at all.

Seeing that, Julis────

“…… I see.”

Julis smiled slightly.

Then, he couldn’t control what was coming up, and finally shouted.

“────That’s right! There was no reason for me to be Inept!”

He put his hand on his forehead and laughed with amusement.

(Kehkeh~……, I thought I had developed this power because I didn’t want to be Inept, so why do I myself think I’m Inept? ……)

He laughed at his own stupidity, at his own foolishness.

In the end, it was not the people around him that he was despised, but himself.

“Hey, hey, what happened to your sudden confidence?”

“Ah……, my bad, my bad!”

Julis took a deep breath after being full of himself and regained his composure.

He couldn’t help but feel a bit arrogant. It was a bad habit for those who had mastered The Deadly Sins Sorcery.

“Once again, I am Julis Anderberg────you can call me Julis.”

“Yeah! You can call me Richardo, too!”

Then, Julis and Richardo exchanged a firm handshake.

As soon as he entered the academy, Julis was worried about whether would be able to get along with the others, but he was relieved that he could do it well.

This was because he was dealing with Richardo, who did not judge him by his reputation, and was sincere in dealing with people without being drowned by his title.

So Julis was deeply grateful to Richardo.

He made Julis realize that, and become a good friend of his.

“Then, let’s hurry up get dressed, and go to the auditorium! It is not funny to be late for the entrance ceremony!”

“Roger that, Richardo.”

And then, Julis and Richardo changed into their uniforms and headed to the auditorium together.

“Hey, why were you so happy in front of the mirror, Richardo?”

“Hmm? It’s because I love muscles! And because────they make me attractive to girls!”

“That’s great, by all means, please teach me some good muscle training.”

The two of them became even closer.

Pride, Superbia: he must be affected by Sin of Pride, he must be arrogant, space around him must move for him instead he does. It’s also worked for his opponent, his opponent becomes arrogant, so he can move his opponent (slam it down [ch 8], or blow it away [ch 13].)

Gluttony, Gula: he must be affected by Sin of Gluttony, he feels hungry/want to fulfill his stomach, he can create black jaws.

Sloth, Acedia: he must be affected by Sin of Sloth, he can affect other’s magic on him like when he dispersed the fire of his mother’s fire magic (ch 3). But can’t on an inanimate object (ch 16, “heirloom”), because an inanimate object can’t be affected by Sin.

Maybeee~
