30 – Selena
The skill level work in ＜Reincarnated Hero＞ in-game was not very enjoyable.
Of course, there are people who move to the next stage by raising all the proficiency levels that can be filled in that section, learning all skills, and filling up the equipment and consumables.
I wasn’t up to that level, but I agree with you on the proficiency level.
It doesn’t cost money, and you can play in an optimal state if you just do the right amount of effort.
If you overdo it, it will take more time if the game is over.
So, it was one of my playstyles to focus on proficiency work.
And that belief is now changing.
As ‘skillful work is just the same’.

“Turn your head back a little more.”
“Remove the chin.”
“Control the strength of your ring finger.”
At some point, the elf archer, Selena, was teaching me a horse.
Looking at this, it seems that I have developed a little inner intimacy…
Anyway, I’m realizing how comfortable it is to click the buttons on the keyboard in a game.
My fingers start to tingle,
When both arms lose their senses and become balloon dolls,
I’ve really hit my limit.
“Wow, uh… until the end.”
It was the words of a man who invested all in his luck, not his strength.
As I sat still and took a quiet breath, Selena came over with a small sigh.
“There is no need to be discouraged. I grew up a little.”
“No, it’s not… Whoa.”
not discouraged
It’s just that it’s really hard to follow.
Even I’m a crossbow, so there’s no need to pull a protest, as long as you hold your posture.
I’ve heard that muscular strength is important for archers, but I don’t think it’s this much…
Even so, Gaylon, who was not good at close-quarters fighting, felt like an idiot.
-Charang!

[Exp: 45/100]
grew… What she said was correct.
It was a whopping 45 proficiency level.
＜Reincarnated Hero＞ cannot be raised with a simple nogada from proficiency level 5.
In order to prevent repeated labor through macros, from level 5, you must receive training from a real dungeon or a professional technology instructor.

In that context, Selena deserves to teach me because she’s far superior to me when it comes to bows.
Even if you just look with your eyes
It has the same skill level as Gaelon.
The proficiency required to learn wind archery is 6.
Luckily, I was able to climb up and fill it up to that point, otherwise I would have to send Hell Week.
That means you have to suck her as much as possible while she is there.
What if I fill half today and half again tomorrow? It’s a two-day cut.
“Let’s go back.”
“… That would be a bummer.”
Selena had a slightly startled expression on her face as she didn’t know that I would ignite this fighting spirit.

“I’m going to die… ”
Was it too much in the end?
Selena knew my body better than I did.
I’ll stop when I say it’s unreasonable.
The training became more and more realistic, and now I had to even play a mock battle with her.
The practice arrow has no nib and is blunt, and there is no risk of serious injury because it has protective gear.
As there is a saying that clothes get wet in the drizzle, my body was complaining of pain all over the place.
If Arya hadn’t come to restore her in the middle, she would have been beaten until she turned into a hedgehog.
“It’s a sac…”
In the end, it is after midnight today that we head to the dormitory.
After staying out, if I think I will be entering the dormitory late due to personal reasons, I decided to notify Jeonseo-gu.
This type of communication is
Rather than Yeriel’s interest in me, I had to see it as the dormitory manager’s duty.
No matter how third-class I am, first of all, I am a Clarisse cadet,
She also has the only garden, but is the head of a dormitory.
In other words, to distinguish between public and private life.
– Profit…
But of course, I could see Yeriel, who I thought was sleeping, in the lobby of the dormitory.
“You came… ”
Yeriel got up from the rocking chair with a small yawn.
Unless even a freshman arrives from dawn,
I can’t help but think that he’s been waiting for me.
“Rev, can you sit here for a second… ?”
She invited me to sit on the sofa opposite her seat.
I hope you’ve heard of the duel… ?
Yeriel asked carefully, handed him a cup of fragrant tea.
“I heard the news. He said he was going to duel this weekend… ?”
It was really because of the duel.
“right.”
“that… Aren’t you scared?”
An unexpected question came up.
It’s not about why you got into a duel, and whether you don’t regret your actions, it’s about whether you’re simply not afraid.
“It’s not even a monster, it can’t be scary.”
“I see. But the opponent is a senior student, and he is also second in the archer division… It’s too dangerous.”
Yeriel’s worries were sincere.
She probably had a glimpse of what Gaelon would look like in a duel.
I’m also a sophomore who skipped through my skills, and since I’m an honor student, I’ll get a rough estimate.
“It won’t end easily. If you surrender even now… ”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t mean to lose.”
“uh?…”
I know why she cares about me.
First of all, her good deeds have no particular target. That’s why.
Second, because I have a lot of penalty points.
In this meritocratic academy, you are solely responsible for the duels between cadets.
In a word, when trouble occurs, it is decided who is responsible only for the result of the duel.
The actions of both sides that became the background of the duel can also be recorded as penalty points for the loser.
To put it simply, my penalty is 49, and losing in a duel would be unconditional expulsion.
That’s probably why she’s worried.
Responsibilities as Principal.
It would be a pity to spend the first dorm cadet like this.
Inevitably, I raised my voice like a third-rate character.
“Only you can bear the responsibility. Isn’t this the Academy’s oath to duel?”
“… ”
Even if it shrinks, it’s real.
“Rather than worrying about my work, Yeriel, I want you to focus on what you have to do.”
“uh…? yes…?”
“It’s a midterm exam soon.”
“Ah, yes… ”
“And according to the customs of Claris Academy, sooner or later, as an elder, you will also have to lead the party.”
“right.”
Yeriel nodded and agreed with my words.
There are many reasons why I draw the line.
A sophomore, she meets Edwin for the first time as the party’s Elder in an upcoming dungeon practice episode.
And, according to the truth, Yeriel succeeds in embodying and communicating with spirits, even though she is an elemental magician.
In Chapter 2, Edwin opens his eyes to elemental attacks, and Yeriel is a stepping stone for his self-esteem.
However, since her elemental magic is harmony magic, it requires a high degree of concentration and time.
When relocating mana, there are many cases that need to be combined, so if you spend time on me, you may fail to communicate with the spirits.
In addition, it will be a key key to acquiring the wind archery that I am drawing now.
So even for me, Yeriel must succeed in communicating with the spirits.
Eventually I nailed it.
“You have a lot of work to do, so you don’t have to feel sympathy for me. I am more comfortable with that.”
“Well, sympathy… no… ! Because getting hurt is dangerous. I was just worried. I apologize if I offended you… ”
Are you an angel?
Even though he gave him a face-off like a third-rate villain, he apologizes.
“I’m sorry for being rude. But, now I think Rev is going to win… So can I support you?”
“Do whatever you want, I’m tired.”
“… !”
-Charang!

[Third-rate mildang! : Acquiring 10 Supporting Points]
Leaving behind her lost eyes and ignorant status window, I head to the second floor.
I don’t feel comfortable either, but now she has to take care of Edwin.
Unlike Aria and Selena, who grow up even with me,
Yeriel is in the right position among the main heroines, so he becomes stronger through interaction with Edwin.
The reason why the role rapidly decreased and collapsed in ＜Reincarnated Aka＞ was because of the conflict between Kaeran and Edwin.
I couldn’t see it again.

The next day, Claris Academy shooting lab.
Only 12 hours before the duel,
Finally, I was able to achieve level 6 of crossbow proficiency.
Arya, who also came to watch me in the middle, gave me a magic to recover from fatigue and made me infinitely powerful.
It was possible by cheating the Mastery Mastery with the power of the lucky attribute.
‘I can’t do it again, never again.’
And, my teacher, Selena, didn’t have a single inch of disorder as much as her skin and hair today.
She spoke coldly.
“If this is enough, it’s worth looking at.”
“… !”
Instead of answering, I exclaimed in my heart.
The crossbow is stuck in the center of the road in front of me.
Selena Grinded Me like crazy too.
And it seems that the minimum value that satisfies her was skill level 6.
Skills 5 and 6, 6 and 7
At first glance, it was a step difference, but a great deal of time and effort was condensed in between.
“Take a good rest. Rest is training.”
“Even if you don’t say it, I think so.”
We became quite friendly.
No, at least that’s how I felt.
In the meantime, there was no other incident, just shooting and correcting, shooting and correcting.
Isn’t there such a thing as a comradeship or a shared heart between a teacher and a disciple’s priest?
-… …
There is an awkward silence again.
Now it’s time to tidy up.
Today’s training ends here.
That was then.
“…tomorrow.”
Those two letters of Selena had many meanings.
You worked hard to get here.
You did your best, and you’ve improved a lot more than you think.
However, you will not be able to defeat Gaelon.
I’m sorry about that.
It will be roughly arranged like this.
Whatever the case, she foresaw that the outcome would not be good, it seemed that she did not continue to speak.
I laughed openly and joked with Selena.
“After all, I didn’t learn wind archery.”
At those words, she did not make a sound and only smiled for a moment.
“Actually, I can’t learn wind archery either.”
“I see.”
Although I knew the information, I answered bluntly.
Not learning wind archery was a secret for Selena until the first semester.
It was an expression that opened her heart in her own way, but maybe she didn’t know I would react so naturally, her expression turned into a mysterious one.
“still.”
“… ?”
At this moment, I naturally extended my hand toward her.
“Thank you. A lot of hard work.”
On the surface, it was a gesture suggesting a handshake.

And inside, for Haeju… physical contact.
Even if you know how to do it, it is a task that takes time and preparation.
However, with the gamer skill, mere hand-to-hand contact is enough.
Instead, this interaction skill cannot be used with one-sided contact, so the handshake was chosen.
-… …
I calmed my pounding heart and waited for her action.
