âA fight between an ogre and a warrior. It was a silly but fun experience. Theo, you always give me such interesting things to watch.â
When the duel and the result were determined, Aira petted my head with her palm.
ăA very fairy-friendly behavior.
Gained job experience for âHalf-FairyââŠ! +50ă
I just got some experience points by having my hair stroked.
This really made me wonder what a Fairy was. Then I remembered Angmar, who had âtouchedâ a young fairy, and felt very strangeâŠ
Anyway, Aira continued her earlier thought.
âBut one day, I want to see Theo fight his battles himself. From now on, try to train every day!â
I didnât really have anything to say about that.
âRemember how bad of a beating you got until the birds suddenly appeared? Itâs because your body is weak! And when did you tame that ogre?â
That was true. This time, I realized how dangerous and frightening it was to be unable to protect myself.
In this duel, I was lucky to have Gorgor, whom I had infiltrated as a staff beforehand. If even one thing had gone wrong, it would have been me, not Efside, who got carried on the stretcherâŠ
In that sense, I was very intrigued about the birds that just flew in out of nowhere earlier.
It didnât seem like it was a coincidence that said flock suddenly attacked Efside.
ăYou have manipulated people and situations with your wicked tricks!
Your speech will now have a lot of persuasive power!ă
ăOne step closer to the mysteries of the world.
You are now a full-fledged Apprentice Mage.ă
More importantly, the level of Mage had risen!
âHalpasâ, which I said out of desperation, was one of the words called âAngmarâs Legacyâ. Could it be that it exerted some kind of power?
There was no other way to explain it right nowâŠ
Just then, Elga patted me on the shoulder.
âAnyway, werenât you victorious at the end? A win is a win, even if you just hid behind the ogre like a coward!â
Elga started congratulating me in her own way. Suddenly, I heard the sound of footsteps coming near.
It was a woman with a blue hawk on her shoulder. A pair of amber eyes soon turned towards Elga and Aira.
âItâs been a while, my Queen, Lady Lioness.â
Hearing this, Aira raised her chin and snorted.
âDaughter of Belhawk. How dare you ignore the invitation I sent you?â
âI am busy in many ways, Your Majesty. Well then, I will take my leave.â
With that, Stella Belhawk walked away. When Elga looked at the disappearing back of the former, she clicked her tongue.
âNo matter how much you look at them, you canât tell what those Elves are thinking. For a species with long lives, everything will look trivial.â
I had to agree. There was no telling what was on her mind.
The Young Lady of the Belhawkâs was a professor here.
It was also the first time Iâd heard of thisâŠ
By the time I returned to the dormitory, Benjamin and Hans were already there.
Looks like they were just having a good time.
But when I arrived, they both shut their mouthsâŠ
What, was I being left out now?
Well, while that didnât really matter, these guys still had useful information that could aid my life at Ark.
Also, it was important to have people on your side. I felt that it was necessary to increase the affinity with my roommates, especially after what had happened.
So I decided to talk to them first.
âDid everyone finish enrolling? How was it?â
I could clearly see Benjamin and Hans looking at each other with my sensitive Half-Fairy sense. They were pike passing a ball to each other, until Hans finally flinched and spoke.
âUhhh, Theo-nim. If weâve been too rude⊠.â
Ok, I understood it nowâŠ
They were scared of me. After all, I just commanded an ogre to crush someone flat like a fly. It might have come as quite a shock to them.
It was not strange for them to think, âAm I going to end up like that too?â
But a relationship built on fear was not a sustainable dynamic.
âWhy are you so scared? You think Iâm going to eat you? Thereâs no need for that! Unless, of course, itâs my enemy.â
Still, it would take a few days to get rid of this awkwardness.
âIs that so? Friend⊠thatâs great! You really defeated that Efside with one blow!â
Hans burst out laughing as if him being afraid before was just a lie.
âIt feels so refreshing! I lost a Class A lecture to him last year. Benjamin here too.â
âThanks to you, I was able to successfully complete the enrollment safely this time. Even though there are still a few more days left, your lectures wonât be robbed if you simply stay in the dormitory.â
âThatâs good to hear.â
I nodded my head moderately. Their eyes then turned to the silver brooch shining on my chest.
âSilver Class⊠Thatâs amazing! Those from Silver Class receive 10 million coins every semester as a development incentive. Itâs 10 times more than that of Bronze!â
âItâs probably only Theo-nim that instantly skipped from a four-digit rank to Silver Class at the 450th Rank.â
âIs that so?â I was about to gloss over it, when Hans said.
âA lot of people saw you fight, Theo-nim. It was amazing!â
âThe ogre Gorgor was great. He held the fort by himself.â
âThe stupid âLast and Firstâ was a provocation to a duel, right? I had no idea!â
