35 – main character

“… Siegfried.”

I said softly, looking at the handsome blond man smiling in front of me.

It was the same when we met in the forest, but strangely, I felt sick to my stomach when I met him, perhaps under the influence of Altane.

Should I say he’s a bit awkward to face? I don’t really want to be friendly.

Siegfried approached me with a friendly smile, whether he knew my feelings or not.

“Yeah. I didn’t expect to meet you here. hahahaha!”

Is it because he is also the main character? Even his personality seems to be hot. There was no way to know when actually playing, but it feels like this.

It’s amazing but I can’t believe that I’m having a conversation like this with a character I’ve been playing.

“What’s going on here?”

“yes? I sometimes come here to read books… Do you like books, too?”

“It’s not that I hate it.”

At least because I read a lot of novels.

When I go somewhere and ask what my hobby is, I can confidently say reading.

By the way, Siegfried is playing like a book.

“Are you here to read a book today?”

“what… I was planning on coming a little late.”

“… ?”

Siegfried glided next to me as I was holding the doorknob.

“I wanted to talk to Altane-kun, so I followed him.”

“You followed me? me?”

“I’m going to the bathroom, but I can’t see Altean’s head. I came here to ask about what happened during the day.”

Siegfried clenched his fist and threw a one-two punch into the air.

It was probably referring to the fistfight between Hans and me.

“Weren’t you in the forest?”

“no. I couldn’t see the badge, so I came back to try another route. When I came, Hans-kun and Altane-kun said that.”

“Right.”

“But I never thought that Hans-kun would do such a thing… I didn’t look like that kid.”

“Didn’t it look like that?”

“yes. no?”

How nice could even Hans look like that?

is this the main character?

I shook my head and denied Siegfried’s words.

“I didn’t say anything, but Hans was the one who started arguing with me from the entrance ceremony. That’s why it only looks bad to me.”

“Uh, yes?”

“Still, it seems that my mind is stuck when I see you neatly admit it and hand over the badge.”

If he had been completely twisted, he wouldn’t have handed over his badge, and he would have used a mean move in a duel.

But that doesn’t mean that Hans turned out to be a good guy.

Because I didn’t like him from the moment he started fighting with me.

“I don’t think that will bring you to your senses, but it will be fine for a while.”

“Listening to what you said, it seems that Hans-kun is especially hostile to Altean-kun?”

“That is my question too. Maybe it’s just because I’m from the Altane family.”

“… .”

“Why?”

“no. Nothing.”

what?

I just felt like something had just gone through me.

“Altain-kun, do you use a sword?”

Siegfried’s voice came from behind me.

Before I knew it, Siegfried, who had come behind me, was pointing at the black sword on his waist.

‘what.’

Are you sure it was right in front of you?

“It has a different shape than a normal longsword. Did you call this an attitude?”

I quickly turned around.

It’s because I felt groggy for a moment.

Behind him, of course, was Siegfried, who was smiling kindly.

He asked as he turned to look at me. It was an innocent look that said he didn’t know anything.

“yes? what’s the matter?”

“… It is nothing.”

‘What was it? just now.’

I automatically put my hand on my back.

A cold sweat was flowing.

It’s not creepy, it’s not the feeling of being startled.

It was creepy.

It was the first time I felt it after reincarnating here.

Even if it’s not an adult, I didn’t do this even when I was dealing with the forest spirit, Ent.

“It was my dream to have this kind of attitude. Custom-made is so expensive that it is still impossible.”

Siegfried, who was observing my attitude carefully, showed me the scabbard containing the regular longsword and lamented.

Siegfried was still smiling, but I could sense an unknown discomfort in that smile.

‘what. This bastard?’

It is safe to say that the smirk personality is similar to the original to some extent, but the atmosphere is strangely strange.

Not only did he come behind me in the blink of an eye, but he also gave me an unpleasant feeling every time I made eye contact with him.

Whenever he had a conversation with Siegfried, Altane’s body was rejecting him.

I should talk moderately and leave.

I don’t want to have a relationship with the main character by building friendships.

“First, I have a book to look for, so let’s go in.”

“Uh, shop?”

“Do you have anything to see here?”

“I have a book I am still reading. And like I said before, I came here to talk to you because Altane-kun passed by today. I feel like I haven’t talked to you in our class.”

Siegfried turned toward the stairs, as if he had really come to talk to me.

I asked the back of his head.

“therefore. Are you talking enough?”

“yes? uh uh Your questions have been answered, so that’s it.”

“What are you curious about?”

“Um, it’s nothing. Then I’ll go. See you in class.”

After saying that, Siegfried disappeared through the stairs again.

Looking at his back, I recalled the horror I felt earlier.

‘This must be when the level is still low.’

The longsword that Siegfried showed was the basic weapon given at the beginning of the game.

That means, just like the game, the levels are still small enough to be counted on one finger.

Even so, I didn’t notice the movement of Siegfried, who preoccupied me in an instant.

No matter how careless I was, I should have been able to catch the presence.

If, unlike the game, Siegfried has some power, that’s a good thing for me.

It will make it easier to respond ahead of future events.

However, it felt like something was stuck in my heart. I feel an unknown sense of deja vu, but ambiguous feeling as if it is not.

In any case, Siegfried is the main character.

Whatever happens will happen around him.

Since Altane, who was the final boss of the original work, has become me, some of the events of Altane’s corruption will not happen.

If you’re lucky, you might be able to stop the Demons from appearing in the Central Continent.

‘I hope so.’

Why doesn’t the feeling of anxiety go away?

blonde haired guy.

Siegfried sat alone in the lecture hall located in the main building after finishing his conversation with Lian.

As he gazed into space, he smirked as if he had remembered something pleasant.

“flaw.”

If someone passing by sees his bizarre appearance, he will not think it is the bright Siegfried.

Siegfried slowly raised his right hand.

Then slowly open and close your hands and repeat.

As if holding something, he immediately turned his gaze to the window.

After the sunset, several students were returning to their dorms.

Among them, there was one that caught his attention.

An ashen-haired man with a nonchalant face holding several books.

At a distance from him, the white-haired girl he had seen during the day was following him.

But the only thing he’s interested in is the gray-haired guy. Lian Altane.

Siegfried’s eyes narrowed.

At the same time, the corner of his mouth raised as if it would tear.

“Whoops.”

That fleeting moment when I saw the black stance on his waist a moment ago and approached him as if possessed and touched it. Old, familiar memories flooded him.

He was confused by the memory that came to him suddenly, but he felt a sense of joy even in the middle of it.

The laughter didn’t stop.

It was a little bit, but I felt like I knew who I was.

“Kuhhh… hahahaha!”

For a while, Siegfried’s laughter continued in the classroom.

“What are you doing?”

I asked the being squatting in front of the dormitory door.

With a voice, Elaine, who was sleeping on her knees, raises her head.

I kept feeling a presence outside the door, so I came out because it was strange, and I was in this state.

“Count… here is my room… but… Wow!”

I hit Honeybam because he was talking nonsense.

“If you’re going to talk nonsense, go back to your room and sleep.”

“Ahh… Oh, it hurts… .”

Rubbing her hair, she stood up and sent the mumbling Elaine up to the front of the elevator.

Elevators operated by mana were no different from Hyundai.

It was thanks to the magic core in the basement of the dormitory itself supplying magic power to all the devices in the dormitory.

“… ah! Now, hold on!”

Elaine, who was being pushed toward me with her eyes half-closed, exclaimed urgently.

It was clear that she would say something useless, so I called the elevator first and decided to listen to what she had to say.

Elaine rubbed her wrist and said.

“Ho, could the Count stay overnight—”

Elaine’s words did not follow.

It’s because he pushed her into the elevator that arrived before he knew it and sent her down.

Have you been under a bit of stress lately?

It sounds strange.
