The nurse gave me a simple medicine and backed off. It was a sour medicine. To be honest, the effectiveness of the drug was questionable, but this is a military hospital, and to prevent fake patients, the medication is thoroughly checked.
After taking the medicine, my stomach didn’t feel any better. It seemed like it wouldn’t be a good idea to show the main character that he couldn’t hold on to a drinking party while improving the favorability of the main character.
And for me, in a game where items like ‘recovery potions’ and ‘recovery magic’ are rare, I have a means to heal myself.
I pulled up the duvet and closed my eyes.
“Enable [Auto Skip].”
I didn’t even feel like sleeping. It was after it was a bit dark outside the window when the jackal returned and woke me up, but it felt like I had closed my eyes for a while.
“Looks like you slept… .”
“a little.”
“Well. Should I have just let it rest? By any chance, if you’re in a state where it’s impossible to have a drink, let’s postpone it to the next time.”
“it’s okay. What time is it?”
“It must have been around eight.”
There are still 4 hours left until roll call. And as expected, I was satisfied with the effect of the skill. My internal injuries were noticeably improved, and even the fatigue of the body that remained in the middle of the day was neatly recovered. After checking my expression, the jackal scratched his head and continued.
“And, I brought one more person because I didn’t have enough hands, isn’t it okay?”
He seemed to have decided that it was still awkward for the two of them to drink together.
As soon as the jackal finished talking, a boy with a full bowl of snacks entered. And, unfortunately, the red-haired boy had a knack for squealing.
Evangeles started using the skill as soon as he arrived.
“John! What, did you go crazy because you couldn’t come to the hospital! Why do you always get hurt?”
“… Somehow it happened.”
“Even so, I was so worried about what would happen to you because of this! Not even visible! I can’t even go to the room! Why are you hurt! Who did you fight with!”
The ‘this day’ that Evangeles was talking about must have been about the display of the members at the parade ground.
And after all, the problem started with an incident that ruined the party after the circus performance. If I had to pick out those parties, there were three of them here.
That is, me, Evangeles, and the Jackal.
Perhaps the Jackal had brought Evangeles with him to put an end to his anxiety about it.
“Well… It’s embarrassing that my family seems to have caused a commotion in the academy.”
“Oh, no jackal. I didn’t mean to pursue that… It seems like that bastard John keeps fooling around.”
“It just happened to happen. This is a hospital, so lower your voice.”
Evangeles thumped his legs as if he was intoxicated.
The jackal let out a clearing of his throat as if interceding, then spread the things he had brought on the bed and said.
“now. Let’s talk while passing the glass.”
The wine he brought was a famous specialty of the Hermes region.
Cole cole cole.
As the glass was filled, the scent of sour wine bloomed. I thought about what to say, then looked at Jackal’s Gibbs and said.
“Come to think of it, I didn’t apologize properly. I’m sorry for ruining the party and hurting you like that.”
“It was in the past. decided to forget I don’t think I did anything particularly well… .”
“Also. You are generous, befitting a son of a great family.”
The jackal seemed to have softened his emotions, but he was slightly awkward with me, and Evangeles glared at me like someone with a word in his chest.
The three of us silently opened the rat cloth and tipped our glasses. The glass circulated, and the intoxication rose quietly.
It’s a bit strange to say this, but there was also a sense of pride.
The two main characters sitting around a bed in a hospital room exchanging drinks.
I relaxed and watched the characters I created, and tilted my glass. Maybe he unconsciously tried to erase the image of Miri he received from the castle wall.
A jackal is someone who is good at negotiating with someone or building that relationship. He placed small fires in the silence and made the place a place for light socializing. I quietly listened to his words, but Evangeles fully revealed that there were words in his mouth that he had to spit out.
Around the time the moonlight shone through the window, the jackal quietly stood up and said,
“Well. Excuse me for a moment.”
After leaving the hospital room, the jackal disappeared towards the bathroom. Left alone with me, Evangeles quickly emptied his glass and finally revealed what was in his chest.
“I heard from Ida.”
“What did you hear?”
“Stop whining, dude. You guys said you were going to date?”
“Ahh.”
“Ahh? what an ‘ah’ I’ve been listening to everything Ida was super excited about her first love coming true.”
Well. dating
I never said I would cut it off, but Ida thought so. Of course, I’m not an idiot to ruin my relationship with Evangeles by saying ‘I just kissed’ here.
“It just happened.”
“Why are you always like that? Sometimes I wonder if I’m your friend.”
“What else… I was shy, so I tried to speak slowly.”
“What is there to be embarrassed about? We are also at an age where we will soon decide on a spouse.”
“What happened?”
I tried to avoid the topic, but Evangeles’ expression didn’t ease.
“So tell me the truth.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“My brother, where did you like it so much?”
“Well… Well.”
“Honestly, before he came here, there were a lot of kids around him. I honestly didn’t understand.”
“Well, until you don’t understand.”
“So please tell me so that you understand. ruler. Mr. Johann Esperts. What is your standard for looking at women?”
And then, the hospital room door opened and the jackal returned.
“Were you talking to a girl? This is back at an interesting timing. Actually, that was the car I was curious about too. What makes that girl so good?”
“Puff.”
I gushed out a bit of the wine I had in my mouth.
The ‘girl’ the jackal was talking about must have been Miri. However, Evangeles misunderstood that this was the story of his younger sister, Ida.
“what. Jackal, did you know?”
“uh. how come Even so, I was thinking that my taste in women is peculiar.”
Evangeles looked at me and the jackal with a puzzled expression. I felt my hair stand on end for a moment, and my anxious hunch was not wrong.
“What is it, John?”
“What, what?”
“you! Did you tell the jackal?!”
Evangeles then jumped up from his seat before I could say anything. The blanket on the bed was pulled a little, and the guy’s drinking glass fell on the floor.
Clink-
The glass just shattered.
The jackal also tilted his head as if he was a little taken aback, and I kept my mouth shut.
Evangeles said with a fake smile.
“sorry. Mr. Johann Esperts. I was the only one who thought we were best friends.”
“no.”
“I can’t ruin a drinking party by being involved in a relationship between two people who have a close relationship. Then have a good time.”
Eventually, he slammed the door shut and left.
It was a big deal.
that guy is pissed off
My hip hurt. Inside the quiet hospital room, the jackal scratched his head and said.
“Um, what did I do wrong?”
A sigh is relieved. Since I came here, I have looked back on the actions I have taken. And I had to admit it. Because I was worried about my affinity with Jackal, I couldn’t care about my affinity with Evangeles.
“Whoa. driving me crazy.”
‘Savior from Another World’ In the original scenario, maintaining a relationship with Evangeles Hermes is not that difficult. This is because they are already given a high affinity from the beginning because of the setting of childhood friends.
The only cases where he gets along with him are when he makes a big mistake with his dearest younger sister, Ida, or when he disregards him to the point of regret.
It seemed to be the latter in this case.
Evangeles’ pouts last a long time. The jackal looked at my frowning face for a moment before speaking a little hesitantly.
“Perhaps… Evangeles too?”
“… What is Evangeles?”
“Those years in advance… No, so, did you film the same kid?”
… It was a wonderful misunderstanding.
I can’t think of anything to answer for that.

‘You have to get used to this pain.’
outside the walls of the academy.
Miri swallowed the herb she had stolen from the herbalist, and cackled wildly. Although the amount of poison buried in the body was small, fever rose throughout the body as a side effect of the herb.
‘That’s what it means to be my magical heir. Accept this pain and transform your body to the limit. If you’re not confident, give up now. In this spot, I’ll kill you cleanly.’
Miri gritted her teeth and spoke in a hoarse voice.
“Don’t go crazy.”
Threads do not have sensory organs that can hear sounds. However, Grinchoff’s thread, made up of electrolytes, was interpreting Miri’s actions through the thread connected to Miri’s brain.

Not only her body movements, but also the shape and expression of her mouth.
Miri’s eyes, which kept trying to close, were pulled up and down by the threads around her eyelids. In front of her eyes, the threads continued to create letters.
‘First, there are people I need to meet. Originally, they were the ones who tried to make contact after this gig. I will carve that name and the places I have to go on my forearm. If you tell them that you’ve inherited Grinchoff’s thread, you’ll understand what I mean.’
Grinchoff scribbled on the skin along her right forearm. When the letters carved with thread were added to Miri’s already scarred body, a rough shape was created with thread.
Even after that, Grinchoff made countless letters on the air and on Miri’s body. As if being chased by something.
Miri felt dizzy in the endless list of letters.
Finally, when night fell, Grinchoff’s writing was finished.
‘These ideals are the things you must do when you continue my will. If you don’t like it, live as you like.’
After a while, the pain subsided, and Miri turned and looked up at the sky. In the plains of Frantimo, the sound of insects could be heard from time to time. Looking at the starry night sky, she felt a feeling she hadn’t felt in a long time.
It was loneliness.
“Don’t just write, let your voice be heard, Captain.”
There was no answer. Only the sound of bugs continued quietly. Miri said with clenched fists.
“From now on, the leader, will you become a thread like this?”
There was no voice coming back. Instead, he actually created another letter.
‘With this, all succession has been completed. These threads are now your limbs and your weapons. You will be able to intuitively learn how to move and use them. just like i did And I, Grinchoff, want a long sleep after a long struggle.’
At the last sentence, Mi-ri got scared.
“What are you talking about… ”
‘This is the end of the time allowed for me.’
Miri couldn’t understand the last sentence.
‘I told you at length, but if you don’t like the life of struggle, you can reject it. You are still young.’
“leader?”
‘So you can live your life, Miri.’
The time allowed is over.
live your life
Miri couldn’t understand the meaning of that at all. However, Grinchoff’s sentence did not follow.
“leader? What does that mean?”

No more writing continued.
“… leader? leader? What do you mean!”
There were still no new writings, and Miri was frightened.
“leader? … leader? hey! what! Answer me! leader! leader? Won’t you answer me?! leader! leader!!!”
Her voice calling for the leader grew louder and louder. However, despite her repeated questions for a long time, she did not create additional letters in the end.
Miri shivered with chills, feeling her forehead as hot as a fireball.
When the three moons finally rose above the starry night sky, Miri cried out.
“Gaaagh! Aaaagh!”
The muddy metal sound continued endlessly.
It was a beastly cry.
