CH 88

My body moved on its own.

I wanted to protect Natalie when I saw her holding it in even though she was about to cry.

Then I couldn’t help but hug her.

And then I said, “I’ll take care of the rest.”

Fugioh.

So embarrassing …

I’m dying of embarrassment.

If there’s a hole, I want to go in as fast as I can.

After I left Natalie, my face was red with embarrassment.

‘What do you mean … ‘I’ll take care of everything’?’

You’re too cool for that.

I’m not that type of character to say that.

I know.

I know, but I still said it.

Because if you showed me a look like that, …

The look of someone who is about to cry but is holding it in.

Because she is usually so dignified, I was struck by the gap between the two.

Those luscious eyes had a tremendous destructive power.

I didn’t even want to be destroyed anymore.

I’m so embarrassed for …… you.

“Oh, my God, that was so weird.”

After that, I came back to my normal thinking and left the place as if I was running away.

And think about the fight against Julian.

“What do I do, how do I beat Julian …?”

After watching the whole match between Natalie and Julian, the first thing I felt was that Julian was too strong.

Definitely the strongest of all the players in the four major festivals.

He fought evenly with Natalie while exercising dual magic casting.

That’s how great Julian is.

Better than Berg and Kaisaf.

I’ve never seen anyone stronger than Julian, including in the higher levels.

“Can I beat him…?”

A question that naturally arises.

Think about how I can defeat Julian with the magic I have available.

There’s only one possibility.

If you use [bullet], you might be able to defeat Julian.

But…

“Ughh…….”

I held my head against the sudden headache.

I can’t help but think of Dominic when thinking about that magic.

It’s been a long time coming, but it’s still stuck in my head.

I haven’t used a [bullet] since then.

Because of the flashbacks of Dominic’s death.

Of course, you can’t just shoot at people.

That’s magic that kills people.

“I really don’t know what I’m going to do.”

As I walked along, thinking about my match with Julian, I spotted Chris-sensei.

She seems to be busy with something.

It’s best to stay away from Chris-sensei in these situations.

Why?

Because she asks me to do troublesome things.

With that thought in mind, I tried to run away, but—

“Hey, Owen, where are you going?”

I had been found.

“It’s the … toilet.”

“Then I’ll come with you.”

Why is this guy following me to the bathroom?!

No, it’s not right at all, is it?

“That’s a lie, because my bladder hasn’t burst yet, and by the way, you seem to be busy.”

“Yeah, there’s been a bit of a row.”

“What? Are you okay?”

“It’s no big deal. …… From a teacher’s point of view, there’s nothing more troublesome than four major festivals.”

“It’s not …… fun, is it?”

From a teacher’s point of view, it sounds like you have to take care of a lot of things.

Besides, unlike the athletic events of my previous life, there’s a chance of a stiff suspicious person entering the school.

If a kidnapping were to occur, it would be a terrible thing.

Well, the security of the Four Great Festivals is not so lax that it is easy to kidnap a student.

“I just want everything to go off without a hitch.”

“That’s when things start to happen.”

“Don’t jinx it …, you look more bored than that.”

When Chris-sensei is like this, I have a bad feeling.

Could it be a chore or …?

This guy thinks I’m a pacifist or something.

I was on the lookout.

“Oh, no, I’m not bored…”

I’m not sure what to say.

“Well, that’s good, I just thought I’d take a break and talk to you.”

Nah, it’s not like she’s going to ask me for a favor or anything.

Then I don’t need to be alarmed.

I mean, there was something I wanted to ask Sensei, too.

“I’m sorry, I’m not busy, I have nothing to do.”

“You just went to …no, it’s nothing …just hang out with me for a bit then.”
