Chapter 43
“Have a drink, Theo. I got it from a famous dessert shop.”
“Because I’m not thirsty.”
“…it’s really delicious.”
Marie, who looked a little dull, drank a mint chocolate latte and ate a piece of chocolate.
“·················ogue.”
“When I eat sweet things, my head spins tight. Eat Theo too. It was a special gift from the store owner I know. It’s a product that only sells in limited quantities, even if it’s convenient for customers to pay as much as they want.”
Of course I agree, but this is not the case.
appetite has gone down.
“it’s okay.”
“yes······.”
After Marie’s powerless reply, there was silence in the professor’s room.
It’s quiet.
‘I’m sorry.’
I know it’s not polite to keep rejecting other people’s favors.
It’s not that it isn’t though.
I remembered the goal I had set in the first place.
‘The reason I came here is to help Marie’s research and make me feel indebted.’
Breaking the long silence, I opened my mouth.
“By the way, I don’t think you came here because you’re busy.”
“Um, I still have some spare time. Do I look busy?”
“You are dressed like you would go to a formal event today.”
I don’t say anything that would be rude, such as it looks like I did my makeup with great care.
I think it’s good to have an appropriate wall for people who really think they’re on my side.
Marie shrugged.
“It’s not a very formal party, it’s a gathering of the Braves Association. All kinds of people are loudly saying I’m right and you’re wrong. Oh, my head hurts just thinking about it. Shall we just not go?”
“No, if it is an association meeting, of course you have to attend. You’re busy, so let’s get right to the point. Please tell me how far the research has progressed.”

“Oh, so this is how it can be applied like this. Is that right, Theo?”
Marie opened her eyes and looked at me.
“yes. I get it right away, Marie. As I said before, unless the leader of the pack is at the highest level, this is a surefire way to work. After most of the monsters have been slaughtered in a swarm, this mission can be accomplished with just a small number of people.”
“Um, um, um. okay······.”
Marie nodded her head.
‘After all, being the youngest professor in the Department of Heroes is not by chance.’
Marie was smarter than I thought.
I spent two hours preparing to explain, and she understood most of what I was saying in less than half an hour.
“Wow, you can think of it like this. Why didn’t I think of this?”
There was admiration in her pale green eyes looking at me.
“Maybe it’s because I keep doing research on my own. I don’t think it’s something I can’t tell other professors.”
“···Yes.”
“Then I think you’ve understood this far, so I’ll tell you about the situation after the small number of people were deployed.”
I continued to explain.
“Um, um, um… Wow. It fits really tight. Even those who say that the association farts a little wouldn’t know this.”
All of a sudden, Marie was nodding her entire upper body beyond just nodding her head.
‘By the way, I’m terribly concerned.’
As her upper body moves, her voluptuous chest shakes as well.
Even a tight shirt could not block the splendor.
A white, deep valley with impressive thin veins can be seen.
I can’t take my eyes off you
‘······shit.’
I feel weird.
This body is in its full swing, so I can understand.
Even though it’s a physiological phenomenon, I’m not a monster either.
At this important moment, you can’t control even this little desire.
It seems that Marie didn’t notice my sullen gaze…
To be honest, I don’t think rationally.
‘You must not know.’
If I did, I think I’d know what it’s like to die of embarrassment.
‘Whoa.’
…and this is all because of Siena.
Someone I don’t know asked me, ‘Since when did you become such a golden beast?’ If you ask me, the answer is that since Siena hugged me yesterday.
It seems that sly elf has brought out the lust that had been sleeping deep in my heart.
Her ‘whoosh’ laughter sounds like an auditory hallucination.
I sang the national anthem inside at 16x speed.
“···Hwangryeogangsan.”
oh shit.
Because I called you in a hurry, my heart came out of my mouth.
Marie tilted her head and held out her neck to look at me.
“Um, Theo? Why is it all of a sudden? I understand, I. I don’t need to be concerned.”
“…Ah, sorry. I was thinking in my mind about what I’m going to explain next.”
I slowly pulled back.
The distance was too close.
‘I can’t be offended anymore.’
If you make one more mistake, you’d rather bite your tongue and die.
With that thought in mind, I continued.
“I’ll explain the next part.”

After discussing with Theo, Marie headed to the Society’s branch in the kingdom’s capital.
I told Theo a little bit earlier, but today’s meeting is quite important.
Although Marie, a warrior from commoners, was young in her late 20s, she was prominent in the association to which many warriors belong, so she was being checked by many warriors from nobles.
‘The only thing I’m going to put forward is the nerds who have no family.’
But Marie’s heart was light.
Thanks to the explanation Theo almost banged in his head.
‘I really want to be the same kid as last semester. How could you come up with such an idea?’
The first time I heard Theo’s explanation, it felt like I had been hit in the head with a hammer.
He came up with an idea that even the bravest warriors in the association could not think of.
If this is enough, he will be able to feed even the noble warriors who keep him in check without limit.
“Heh heh heh.”
While humming happily, Marie boarded the roundabout for the conference.
‘By the way, there is an unexpectedly cute corner.’
Marie thought of Theo in the professor’s room.
He continued to glance at her body.
I’m sure she didn’t notice, but she couldn’t escape her intuition.
After explaining well, he suddenly stopped, and when he got closer, he hurriedly ran backwards.
‘I should give a prize to a cute child.’
Marie chuckled.

After lunch, I headed to the training ground.
Yesterday and today, all club meetings have been canceled, so there is nothing to do.
‘I had a lot of simulation training and battles in the morning…’
Let’s go to the gym.
profit-
I immediately opened the door.
There were about ten people in the gym.
A face everyone knows
Nike, Fiel, Esilder, Max, Aisha… even the wizard Andrew.
‘Bona Mana Eisha must have followed her back and forth. What kind of physical training is the nerdy mage?’

Everyone welcomed me except for Phil and Aisha.
I responded to that cheer.
“nice to meet.”
I feel good.
In the past, it was a scene where children who looked at me with subtle eyes greeted me.
Also, people have to work hard.
After stretching my body, I headed to the center where the lower body training equipment was located.
“Oh, you came… No. Are you here, Theo?”
Aisha pouts and greets me.
Why is he suddenly like this again? don’t fit
“…Aisha, what’s wrong with you?”
“Oh, no? Is nothing wrong?”
There seems to be something very big going on.
However, I didn’t have to ask.
“Yeah, I see.”
Until two days ago, I was fine.
What change of heart did you have?
It’s strange to see a kid I’ve never seen before suddenly in the gym.
With that thought in mind, I glanced at Andrew.
“·················ogue.”
Andrew made eye contact and approached me.
“I heard the story separately from Aisha. He skillfully led two teams—”
“They didn’t talk to each other, Andrew.”
Aisha quickly corrected it.
After Andrew took care of his expression, he spoke again.
“…we had a deep conversation with the kids we met often about the magic dungeon incident. Aisha was very surprised. There must have been something else that I didn’t know—”
“There was no such thing. I wasn’t too surprised.”
“. . . Lee Shilder praised you a lot.”
“That’s right.”
“·················ogue.”
Andrew sighed and shut his mouth.
Ugh, it’s said that a boy who falls in love becomes an idiot.
That’s great honesty.
He has tuberculosis, so he wouldn’t be able to hold the exercise equipment that someone else used.
“Uh-huh, huh, huh. me, i You can do it, you can do it!”
My prediction was correct.
Andrew was contemplating whether to grab a barbell or not.
Then, he glances at Aisha’s eyes.
…is it for the purpose of showing off your masculinity?
Just do your magic.
It’s really salty to watch.
just help
Baron heard from Noctar, who was on the same team as Andrew during the Magic Dungeon Crisis, and said that he struggled to protect the other students by himself.
“Andrew.”
“Are you going to make fun of me?”
“Take it.”
I took a handkerchief from my pocket and threw it at Andrew.
Of course, it was too old-fashioned for a handkerchief to suit Theo’s taste.
Andrew is looking at me with suspicious eyes.
I came up with the answer right away.
“It was not used. to wrap it in your hand. You don’t have to give it back.”
“······i get it.”
Andrew turned his head and muttered, ‘I lost again,’ and wrapped a handkerchief around his hand.
‘Why are you there?’
Anyway, I’ll have to train myself.
