98 – How to fight and win against monsters (26) – This time it’s my turn to win.
Why is Howlan Dyers so weak?
When I think about it, it’s strange. Looking back, it was quite a strange thing.
“That kid probably still doesn’t know anything. If you look at it, you’re a really frustrating person too. How long will it be just you and me who know?”
It was the traditional magic master of the Howlan family. Moreover, Grand Duke Howlan is one of the strongest wizards in existence.
If he had inherited even a little bit of his talent, Dyers would never have been weak. He would not have been able to monopolize the position of first executive officer for that long.
Then why was Howlan Dyers so weak?
For a wizard, the kidneys were no different from the heart. This is because the blood vessels containing mana flow there.
Giving up a kidney meant accepting a huge penalty as a wizard.
“Howlan, no, I’m just a commoner Dyers. I hate you guys. I think the same way now as I did when we were classmates. Don’t you know how annoying I am with your arrogant comments? Why not look down on everyone else? Anyway, people. “A bastard who is incredibly good at messing with his pride… Such a bad bastard.”
Second Executor Kirshen, who was whispering with a cold face, grabbed the back of my neck.
Her I turned her head and looked at her.
Her Kir Shen lowered her head. He bowed so close that I couldn’t see his expression.
She continued speaking in a tearful tone.
It was as if he was holding in something.
“It’s a good guy who was flying in the battle .. I don’t know how much it was like that the kidney disappeared and the basic magic was not properly used.
“…Kirshen.”
“f*ck.. If you did something so crazy, it would be better not to be betrayed. You can live a good life while complaining. People tell you bullsh*t that you’re weak to begin with, and you get ignored by idiots like control or something for showing off all your true skills. “You got hit in the back of the head by a blond kid who was spinning around?!”
Her hand roughly wrapped my head. I couldn’t see Kirshen’s expression because my bangs were pressed down.
“The reason I supported the challenge to the 13th floor was not for you. It was for the missing student council president Vivian. Aside from that… I came here to say this today.”
Kirshen held her breath and let it out, as if she had made up her mind.
She hugged me tightly. Very strong, as if he would never let go.
Kirshen’s face was buried in my shoulder.
“Thank you for your hard work. You worked harder than anyone else with a body of that size. It must have been very difficult because you were missing one kidney, but you worked harder than anyone else.”
“…..”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t do anything when you were kicked out of the Howlan family and when you were kicked out of the student council because of that brat. Actually, I thought you had changed, so I gave up. Ever since President Vivian disappeared like that… You, “I thought you were broken. I thought you had forgotten your motivation and President Vivian’s teachings.”
“…….”
“But it wasn’t.”
“…Okay.”
“Thank you. Thank you so much. For being the same as you. For making me realize that my judgment was wrong. I gave up on you, but you didn’t give up on Chairman Vivian. As expected, you are… The same Dyers I knew. Yes. , Are you sure.”
I was unable to say anything as she continued to speak while holding back her crying voice.
Even while everyone’s attention was focused, Kirshen hugged me for a long time and did not let me go.
.
Even after an incredible scene had passed, Pur and Jenna were quiet.
“Even looking at things like that, Jenna is surprisingly quiet, isn’t she?”
“Ah. I know because I have a sense of humor. That kind of thing is a hug of friendship. There can be friends between a man and a woman… Well, right? A hug of true love is not just about coveting each other and touching each other for fun. But if you look closely, Another senior made a woman cry.”
In fact, it is just a good ‘pretend’. It’s a hug of friendship and a hug of deep love. Why is it taking so long? Why is the senior not pushing it away and accepting it? She almost pulled out her great sword and rushed at him.
“Right, isn’t it?! I didn’t feel any ‘affection’ while watching it! They’re still friends anyway, so it doesn’t really matter…!”
In fact, it is just a pretense of being cool. Can’t you feel any affection at all? How is that any different from the embrace of a couple who reunited after not seeing each other for a long time? There’s nothing that doesn’t matter!! Isn’t it against the school rules to hug that much?
Pur was resentful of the Academy’s lenient dating regulations. She was so shameless that she only responded with a hug when it was probably against the school rules for her to occasionally sleep with Dyers.
“Actually, wasn’t Dyers a bad guy, except for us? He only gave us room and didn’t allow anything more than that.”
“…No way. There are a lot of strange female acquaintances around you, but… You’re not that type of person, right?”
“I like it better when Dyers is nice to us.”
“Well, that’s it… I’m like that too…”
They looked at Kirshen and Dyers in awe.
The public opinion war under the guise of an interview with a Latina continued even after Kirshen’s declaration of support.
On the one hand, he attracted people’s attention with his spirit of challenge, the results of his research so far, and his support.
The other side refuted with a straight argument, citing data on failures so far and victims. The logic was how could Dyers break the 13th floor, which even Archduke Howlan could not break.
Subject: Isn’t that what the Latina enforcer said?
-No, it’s true that I also enjoyed hearing what Dyers said, but it’s only theoretical, and no one knows whether it can actually be solved in the end;;
What if everyone dies again?
ㄴ If you think rationally, what you are saying is correct, that is the king.
ㄴ You guys really have no romance. Are you giving up without even trying?
Is it worth risking your life for that kind of romance? I really don’t know.
Are you saying that all the people who sacrificed their lives to break the 13th floor so far have died meaninglessly?
ㄴ If you just look at the results, it’s like that hahahaha So you beat the 13th floor? Why are you trespassing in a designated off-limits area when even your own father can’t wake up?
ㄴI’m just going to support Dyers.. It’s just hilarious that there are people who are willing to take on the challenge of this boring academy life.
Yes, hahahaha I also support Dyers. Why not just escape? In fact, Dyers is a veteran who has escaped several times.
ㄴThat’s because I got lucky hahahaha. Now I’m running out of luck. Even if I die soon, I’ll support the student council.
Are you a student council member?
Despite having shown a lot so far, public opinion was increasingly leaning towards the student council. Is Latina using her manpower to manipulate public opinion?
“That’s it.”
The Latina who went up to the podium came down after finishing her speech. The crowd’s cheers were heard.
She always insisted on the right path. The speech I just gave was also full of correct opinions.
“Stop giving up now.”
“You’ve grown a lot. Those people must have been taken in by your speech.”
Latina said with a grin.
“Thank you for the compliment. Of course. I’m not the kid I was back then.”
“Is that so?”
Finally, it was the last hour of the interview. I got up and walked little by little to the podium.
The stage was quite high. Like a towering tower.
Every time I walk more and more.
Every time I think of Latina, it begins to become more and more clear.
Memories of the past came to mind… Just a little, just a little.
It was a strange thing. It felt like I was dreaming with my eyes open.
In front of her past self, the little girl knelt down on her knees and bowed her head.
It was a relationship that appeared to be between a gunner and a second gunner.
‘Senior Dyers. Please..!’
‘No. Let’s support a village damaged by a monster? ‘What kind of absurd plan is this when even the student council budget needs to be reduced right now?’
The little girl clung to the rough man’s knees and begged.
‘Please, please… In that village, there is no one. It means that no one will help… If things continue like this, everyone, including adults and children, will starve to death!!’
The man who had firmly refused wrinkled his face and sighed. Then he raised the little girl up and asked briefly.
‘Let me ask you one thing. Why do you do that even though you know you will get scolded by me? Is a complete stranger really that important? Enough to refuse orders from your superiors? ‘Why on earth would you want to save them?’
‘…..That.’
‘I’ll give you a chance to talk. ‘Tell me right now.’
The man pushed the little girl hard. Before I knew it, tears formed in the girl’s eyes.
‘I don’t know, I don’t know. It’s just that people are hurt and in pain… And that they will soon starve to death… Just…’
‘Just?’
‘I just… Wanted to save it. I wanted to save these people… That’s what I thought.’
‘…It’s ridiculous.’
That day was the first time Dyers lost to Latina.
However, there was no place to get the missing budget. A considerable amount of money would have been incurred just for various relief supplies, procurement costs, and labor costs.
No one at the academy knew that the amount was paid entirely with Dyers’ personal funds.
Even the Latina who asked for the favor thought that Dyers was using her skills to take her budget from somewhere else.

“That’s right. I lost that day.”
I stared at Latina briefly.
I climbed all the stairs and stood on the platform.
The public responds to intense stimulation rather than boring debate. Stimuli are remembered much longer.
“This time it’s my turn to win.”
I took off my uniform top.
