223. If you continue like that, you will lose your agar star.

with my daughter
The bell of the cafe in the academy rings and the three of them enter.
—-Hancheonseong, Luna, and Milia.
At once, the eyes of the people inside the cafe were focused on them.
All of them were eye-catching and good-looking, but among them, Han Chun-seong was at the center of hot rumors, so the appearance of entering the two women could not help but attract the attention of many people.
*
Sometimes it’s hard to reject people’s words.
It’s definitely better to reject than to accept, and the moment when you can’t bear to say no even though you have other things to do.
Chunseong had been through such a situation just a moment ago.
good.
“Agar Castle. So what you’re saying is that many crises have become great opportunities… ?”
“yes. It wasn’t meant to be a crisis, but it’s clear that it’s helped me a lot in my growth. Because by overcoming the crisis, I was able to see the next one.”
Looking at the two women in front of me, I answered honestly.
Luna and Milia.
He said he was hanging out with two unexpected people right now, but the thought of tomorrow’s joint training couldn’t leave the part of his head.
—-The Madness of the Demon Beast.
It is the second episode unfolding in this world, and it is like the first crisis Leonhardt faces.
It was the moment when Leonhard awakened to his character as the main character, but I had to replace it now to fill his void.
‘And I can overcome it enough.’
The level of the apostles that would appear could be easily dealt with by me and Glesia. I would never have been in a dramatic crisis like Leonhardt.
Still, I tried to organize the situation one more time, such as the apostle’s weakness, but I couldn’t do that.
Took. Took… … .
The sound of knocking on the table interrupted my thoughts and brought me back to reality.
There, Luna with a mysterious expression was staring at me.
“Well, maybe… If it’s natural, it seems like a natural thing. After surviving a crisis of that level, there must be no way not to grow.”
“Luna. Rather than such a reaction, shouldn’t it be seen as a way to overcome the crisis? Those were really dangerous moments.”
Luna nodded as if she understood what I was saying, and Milia, who supplemented Luna’s words, gave me an awkward smile.
“I think there is a certain point in what Luna said. It’s even weirder if you don’t grow even though you’ve passed that level of crisis.”
Knowing that Luna’s personality was originally like that, I had no intention of taking it badly.
Right now, I just want to quickly pass the seat with them and have time to think alone.
“what. Why are you acting so humble?”
When Luna asked, narrowing her eyes in wonder, I rather laughed.
“To be humble, have I ever been arrogant? I don’t think I ever boasted or showed off.”
I’m not arrogant when I say it, but I didn’t think lowly of me usually either.
I know that my attitude can be seen as deceitful. But even so, knowing that my achievements were overwhelming compared to the other cadets, it was ridiculous to show off.
“No, well that’s the case… Then it seems like I said something bad for no reason. I’m telling you now, but I have no intention of denying or putting you down now. Because now I have to admit that you are great.”
…The words that followed were long and confusing, but the feelings were new.
‘Luna is me?’
I wonder if it was because of Luna’s evaluation before I knew it. Although the feelings were new, the mood wasn’t too bad.
“You’re going to praise me for being unexpected.”
“What is a compliment…”
I looked at Milia with a smile at Luna’s sudden glance away from me.
“Really, Luna didn’t mean anything bad, so I don’t want you to misunderstand. And thank you for answering our questions so honestly, it helped me a lot as well as Luna.”
“That’s about it… And if there’s anything else you want to ask, you can ask right away.”
“Yeah, thank you.”
My eyes inadvertently went to Milia, who just smiled warmly at my answer.
Milia’s appearance through lightly waving black hair was also special. I felt an elegance that I couldn’t feel from a cadet of my age.
It was very feminine, but it only felt attractive to me.
‘also… .’
I realized again why I considered Milia my ideal type.
I thought there would be no chance to meet like this because there was no point of contact recently, but I suddenly felt that Milia’s presence was noticeably stronger than before.
“Maybe Millia. Did you reach level 3?”
“uh? You… can you feel it? I haven’t told anyone about it yet.”
“Because I feel that my presence has become very strong.”
“Milia! Did you really reach level 3!?”
Luna looked at her in awe, and seeing that, Milia really didn’t seem to tell anyone.
“I didn’t mean to hide it, Luna. It’s really the timing to say rather than that intention… .”
Wow!
Contrary to Millia’s hesitant reply, Luna hugged Millia as tightly as she did, and I was surprised.
“Milia! Congratulations!”
Luna congratulated her as if she was really happy by touching her cheek to Millia’s cheek, and it seemed quite bold.
“Lu, Luna? And, thank you, but… you’re too open-minded. There are other people too… .”
“It’s really because I’m more than happy!”
Milia hesitated and tried to get out of her arms, but Luna rubbed her cheeks with a happy expression on her face, and her eyes inadvertently went to her.
Luna expressed how much she cares for and likes Milia… It warmed my heart while watching it.
“Ah… now, wait a minute, Luna… .”
Millia struggling in Luna’s arms as if she was ashamed, and Luna expressing more affection as if she was cute… … .
Took!
Then, even though Millia, who had finally escaped from Luna’s arms, was greatly embarrassed, Luna was not ashamed at all.
“Can friends congratulate each other like this, why is Millia so shy?”
“No, I’m really grateful for that feeling… but everyone else is here…”
Luna smiles brightly despite Milia’s shameful appearance.
‘It looks nice.’
When I saw them, I had a sudden thought.
Two people who look like each other create a heartwarming scene like that, so the eyes went innocently.
Then I vaguely felt why Luna was growing into the main heroine.
‘Unless it’s a unique sharp-edged personality… .’
Certainly, Luna is also quite attractive.
Then, when she suddenly made eye contact with me, I hesitated, wondering if she had read my thoughts.
“Oh, right. There’s one more question I’d like to ask. Don’t you find it strange?”
“okay. ask.”
Contrary to his surprise, he replied calmly and met Luna’s gaze. Suddenly, the corners of my eyes narrowed slightly.
“Could you Are you dating anyone right now?”
“…what?”
I stupidly asked a question I hadn’t even thought of.
“I asked if you were dating someone.”
I shook my head in a daze at the repeated question, but I didn’t understand.
‘why?’
Why is Luna asking me this?
***
“I asked if you were dating someone.”
As she continued to say it, Luna added determination to her voice.
“…No, there is not.”
Even as she looked at her surprised face as if embarrassed, Luna’s mood was ambiguous.
‘Am I really not dating anyone?’
There was nothing unnatural about the way he responded. Still, I couldn’t help but be skeptical.
The more I get to know Han Chun-seong a few times, the more I know now that the rumors floating around are absurd rumors.
Still, I had to check again.
“…Luna? Go, why are you suddenly asking that? Even Han Chun-seong is embarrassed.”
Looking at Milia, who seemed more surprised than Han Chun-seong, he shook his head.
“It doesn’t mean anything. Because I was just curious.”
Even though I was evasive, my heart was cramped.
Millia reflected in my eyes now. His kind and warm personality always felt good.
Because those parts were the best for me. But now, those aspects of Milia felt different.
Considering Milia’s personality who doesn’t assert herself in the slightest, I felt I had to help her.
I had to make a place for him to meet with Han Chun-seong like now, and act a little more aggressively… I thought Milia would have a chance.
“… … .”
“… … .”
At the end of my question, a sigh leaked out in the silence of the place.
‘I don’t know if I’m going to confess properly… .’
When I first noticed Milia’s feelings, I felt sorry for Milia and hoped she wouldn’t like Han Chun-seong, but now that has changed.
Han Chun-seong now deserved it.
As Milia’s mate, he was far ahead of him to the extent that he felt fine. It’s because I’ve grown a lot despite the interest of many people.
‘But even if I try to help.’
glimpse.
As if she was even more surprised by my question a while ago, I could only vaguely see Miria touching the apple pie with a fork.
‘If I continue like that, I’ll lose my Agar Castle.’
If Han Chun-seong really didn’t date anyone, the only chance I could see was now.
Milia had to approach more actively and express her feelings strongly.
Right now, there are too many women around Han Chun-seong, so I don’t know when and how the relationship will develop.
“right. I guess I should wake up first.”
“huh?”
“uh… ?”
He smiled lightly at the surprised two.
“I have something to do, so I will go first. Let’s spend a little more time together.”
…While trying to get up, he carefully tapped Millia’s shoulder.
“Lu, Luna?”
Milia, who was surprised, met her eyes and smiled.
“Milia, don’t you have more questions about agar than me?”
