After I Stopped Sponsoring, the Female Leads Began Obsessing Over Me chapter 124

124 – Random boxes in the club room! (1)

The first place Elena led was the building near the student council.

A state-of-the-art club hall built with marble.

It was almost like I was blinded by the sparkling white stones.

An empty dormitory on one side of such a building.

“This is the best of the remaining club rooms.”

“It sure looks neat. But isn’t there fierce competition in this area?”

In response to Ian’s question, Elena triumphantly placed her hands on her waist.

“Yes! I secretly obtained information from the student council and am only telling it to Brother Ian!”

Elena looks this way with her eyes shining brightly.

That look is like, ‘Did I do well? Ian had no choice but to point out the look in his eyes that said, ‘Please praise me!’

“Is that okay? Isn’t it a bit expedient?”

“That…That!”

Elena dyed her face red.

Then Elena gaped at her mouth.

“… If you’re going to get embarrassed so quickly, why did you do something like this?”

“Well, that.”

Elena, who was desperately trying to find an excuse, closed her eyes tightly as if she couldn’t help it.

The true feelings flowing from her mouth.

“It’s all because of Sister Danya!”

“Danya?”

“Yes! I can do better than Sister Danya! I’m going to show you that!”

Although she had already lost the fight with Danya, Elena did not give up. It’s not like Daanya is hanging around Ian every day, and as long as she gets to know Ian, the real person, she’ll be given the opportunity to access her ice cookies as many times as she wants.

Therefore, it is a priority to try to gain the upper hand in Ian’s mind.

Elena’s hair was noticeably tighter than usual.

‘In the end, everything depends on the human mind!’

It was the small priest’s firm will to monopolize the fruit that was like a blessing from God.

Meanwhile.

Seeing Elena like that, Ian felt proud of her.

It was the result of her slight misunderstanding.

‘Are you competing with Danya to see who will be stronger? It’s already amazing.’

Becoming strong means training!

Now that I think about it, isn’t this place close to the latest training center?

Elena is so sincere about her training!

“Your heart for constant training resonated well with me, Elena.”

With a slight illusion, Ian nodded her head proudly.

“…?”

“But I think it will be difficult to find lodging here.”

“Accommodation and meals?”

Some clubs provide accommodation and meals.

“There is a shower room and toilet nearby. The type that also provides water and fire for cooking.”

“Oh, it’s not here, but it’s there. How did you know?”

That’s because in Panta

The club was a place where players stayed and the characters they collected gathered together.

‘Of course, if it’s a school drama, there has to be a club.’

Ian wanted to find a good club room where his academy romance could come true.

Actually, I started to think that it would be difficult to move around to meet my children.

“It could also be used as a club club and a hideout for our promoted team.”

“Well, that can’t be done…” Club rooms should only be used for club purposes.”

“Yes, yes.”

“…Are you sure you understand?”

“Yes.”

Elena starts nagging.

With her in the lead, Ian visited various clubs where he could.

The conditions laid out by Ian are that it must be spacious enough for living and at the same time not cramped even when people gather.

However, it was difficult to find such poor performance.

“The more it is located on the outskirts of the academy, the wider it is, and the closer it is to the center, the narrower it becomes.”

“Sure.”

“…Everyone is a bit vague.”

Ian and Elena wandered around the academy.

Was it when we inspected about six clubs?

“… I know of one place that meets the conditions.”

Elena trailed off her words.

“It is large and equipped with various facilities. But…”

Why are you doing that?

“Is the deposit really that expensive?”

“No! That’s not it either…”

“But why are you so restless?”

“That…That! You’ll know once you get there!”

Elena guided Ian to the building of the (old) magic school.

“Isn’t this okay?”

It definitely looked old, but it didn’t feel dirty.

Should we say that the leaves and leaves that fill the wall have a somewhat antique feel?

Elena pulled the back of Ian’s clothes as he tried to enter the front door without hesitation.

Elena widened her eyes as if she was surprised by Ian’s words.

“Brother Ian, have you never heard of this place?”

“Huh?”

“It is one of the ten wonders of the Lichten Academy…”

“Ah.”

If it’s one of the Academy’s 10 Wonders, of course you’ve heard of it.

I think there were about 2 or 3 things covered in the story.

It seems that there was no (old) magic school among them.

“Why is this place a mystery?”

“Ears… Ears…”

“Ears? Human ears?”

“No, that’s not it!”

Elena looked around her and whispered to Ian.

“Ghosts, ghosts. There are rumors that ghosts appear in this building.”

“I see. But why are you whispering that like that?”

“Ears, ghosts can overhear!”

Ian looked dumbfounded for a moment, then immediately corrected her face.

Elena flinched at that sight.

“Of course, I am God’s servant. I don’t believe in ghosts! Even if I come out, I can just purify myself!”

“Really?”

“Everything, everything, of course!”

“Then let’s go in.”

“Are you going in? Really?”

“Are you scared?”

“I’m not scared because Deus-sama will always be by my side…!”

Even if you say it while hanging in the back.

Ian raised his eyebrows and walked straight inside without hesitation.

‘Conditions are very good.’

It is close to the center of the academy, but slightly tilted to the northeast.

It is also good to source ingredients from the northern market. It would also be good to expand into a high-end shopping district for academy alumni.

Furthermore, since it was a building of some age, it seemed to be quite spacious inside.

The front door of the building felt quite old.

Desk and chairs placed randomly here and there.

— Wow!

“Hiyaaaaa!”

Elena clung to Ian’s back with her scream.

“The wooden floor is creaky, Elena.”

She fell, her face blushing. She said, though she grabbed the hem of Ian’s shirt with her fingertips.

“Woah, it’s here.”

Elena, who had been checking something on her Kirtos terminal, stopped in front of a classroom.

“This place has been empty for about three years. I don’t think anyone has thought of starting a club in this haunted building.”

Ian opened the door without much hesitation.

“It’s quite spacious.”

It is a space the size of a normal classroom.

It was larger than the club room Ian had imagined.

“Put basic furniture like a sofa and table there.”

Ian, who had arranged the furniture in her head, spun around.

A space for drinking water and cooking provided in one corner.

“I think we can put the equipment for the dessert research group over there.”

Even then, there was quite a bit of empty space left.

‘Is this enough for me to live off of my own household expenses?’

Even if I split it in half, it would be larger than the accommodation I live in now.

Should I move here altogether?

Ian thought that wouldn’t be a bad idea either.

The time it takes to travel to the academy is significantly reduced, and the training center is close by.

More than anything, it seemed like it would be a little safer to be inside the academy, where entry to outsiders was strictly restricted. From people like blood maids.

However, because it had been left for a long time, some dust had accumulated in the corners.

Of course, just wipe it clean with a rag and you’re done.

‘If you feel uncomfortable, you can use your authority once.’

While I was looking around like that.

“Hmm?”

In the shelf in the corner, Ian held a small box in his hand.

An old-fashioned, palm-sized box that appears to be made of luxurious but worn wood.

The golden lock that closes the box is quite delicate.

“…Why is this here?”

“What is it?”

“One of the ten wonders of the Academy you mentioned.”

“Hey!”

Elena, who stuck out her head as if she was interested, immediately widened the distance.

It looked like some kind of explosive, but that makes it a very valuable item.

Because it was one of the few number items available at the academy.

「No. 777. A mysterious box.”

‘I didn’t know this was here.’

Ian was quite surprised.

Number 777. Mysterious box.

As the name suggests, this box itself is an ‘item’.

If you open the box and put something of value, such as a gold coin or magic stone, inside, it will change it into another item of that value.

‘It’s a kind of gacha tool.’

The reason Ian wanted to find this item while playing was because he thought he would enjoy a similar effect as in-game goods.

‘I never thought it would be hidden in a corner like this.’

I went through a lot of trouble just to find this box…….

In the end, the memories I couldn’t find came back painfully.

In a way, it was natural that it was hidden in a drawer in an old classroom.

“By the way, you’ll need a key.”

I look around, but I can’t see anything like a key.

That moment.

— Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrb!

“Aaaaah!”

Elena was startled again by the door suddenly opening and clung to Ian.

“Calm down. It’s not a ghost.”

Ian, who calmed down Elena like that, looked at the open door.

Large size and bronze skin.

This is a boy who looks quite bad with his blonde hair and earrings.

The guy who stepped into the clubroom greeted me.

“Are you a new neighbor?”

“I’m thinking about it.”

“Your words are short.”

“You too.”

We just confirmed each other’s feelings to some extent through the conversation.

The person who raised the corner of her mouth shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth.

“Don’t be so wary. I’m just here to give you some guidance.”

“…Guidance?”

“Yes. To use this place, you have to pay a development fund and a toll fee.”

“… Development fund?”

Instead of answering, the other person took something out of his pocket.

A sharply forged dagger.

The blonde young man licked it with his tongue as if it were some kind of old-fashioned villain.

“Well, weapons like that are against school rules!”

Ian stopped Elena.

I planned to resolve the matter through dialogue whenever possible.

“Development fund? Why should I pay for that?”

“If you want to move into the building managed by our club, you have to show sincerity.”

“I don’t know what your club is. What if I can’t join?”

“If you can’t pay, you have to get out of here, right away.”

The blonde gangster held out a knife and took a threatening stance.

Elena runs forward on her heels and shouts.

You are fearless as long as your opponent is not a ghost.

“Ji, calm down! Do you think the student council will keep quiet if you show up like this? No, even having a weapon like that is subject to disciplinary action. There shouldn’t be a combat club in this building, so what kind of club are you —!”

Ian shouted urgently, interrupting Elena.

“Elena’s shield!”

The blond guy came rushing in, throwing knives.
