195 – 195 – Good weather misunderstood # 2
195 – Good weather to be misunderstood #2
Hilde asked me with a feeling like, “It’s hot, would you like some ice cream?”
“Would you like to date me for a month?”
He asked me so lightly that I almost answered lightly, “Yes.”
But with relative restraint, I was able to suppress my answer.
Because this was like a trap or something.
I asked.
“Dating, does it literally mean dating?”
“What else is dating besides dating? We’re just going to meet for a month or so. Just like I did with Cristina.”
How can a human heart be this easygoing?
What is a Western-style open mind?
Are all Themyscira people like this?
Hilde added.
“By the way, as written in the Ludens health textbook, you have to date according to the rules of healthy heterosexual relations between men and women. You know that holding hands is possible from the 100th, right?”
don’t know that
I just have the feeling, ‘Is he doing this to make fun of me?’
By the way.
Looking at his expression, he seemed serious.
maybe that’s it
Is it like identity confusion?
He has a history of dating Christina for about a month because he was wondering if he liked women.
Maybe he’s trying to date me because he’s wondering if he likes men.
It’s quite possible.
He seems a bit far from being romantic like that.
“Are you suggesting this to anyone?”
I asked just in case.
Then, Hilde frowned.
“Nobody. Do I have my own preferences?”
“is it.”
Is it like a sub-quest that appears for those who have reached a certain level of charm and affinity for Hilde?
“how? about a month. I don’t think it’s bad for you either. If you go out with me, you’ll be able to do rehab in the morning or be a sparring partner.”
indeed.
It wasn’t a bad story when you think about it that way.
Why, all the girls around me are in the position of a ‘wizard’.
So, in terms of physical training, it didn’t really help much.
But what if Hilde helps me?
Since Hilde is good at martial arts, I should be able to improve my bare-handed fighting skills.
“I won’t ask you to answer right away, so think about it slowly.”
“I get it. Before that, Hilde, I have something to ask of you.”
“To me?”
“I want to go out after 7pm today. I want to do a little research on the abandoned church site near the old school. Would you like me to give you a permit?”
“That’s easy. Why, is there anything there?”
Hilde seemed to think I was trying to search the crime scene.
However, the abandoned church site was a place where there was nothing in particular.
If there is, at least one statue of a goddess.

When I returned to the club room, Mok-in and Arnoi were lying down and taking a nap.
“Arnoi, what’s wrong with letting the wooden man rest?”
When I asked, Arnoi got up from his seat and rubbed his eyes.
Then he said
“If you work too hard, it might break down… . The right balance between rest and work is important… . I was making this Arnoi imitate the rest… !”
“… … .”
“The most important point is for Arnoy to know that he wasn’t resting because he wanted to rest… !”
That makes sense.
Even if you are a wooden person, you need to take a break.
Even machines break down if they run continuously.
In that sense, we decided to set up a schedule for the wooden man’s rest.
One day out of the week, you have to let him do what he wants to do.
Even if that’s the case.
“Where is Nike and the other friends?”
“Everybody seems busy… ! Director Nike went to study the newly obtained marble… . Also, delegate Enio is said to be studying dark and so on… !”
Is everyone trying to deal with the overdue tasks given to them?
That gave me relatively little time for myself that evening.
Now that you have time, how about mastering ‘breaking through the wall’?
Although I could have had success with my eyes closed when I was doing it with a monitor and keyboard.
Actually, when I have to move my body, it’s different, so I need to get used to it.
-Hooong… !
As I was about to set out on the road, Kyeongkong talked to me.
Was it strange that I was wearing a student robe?
The student robe was designed to be worn in rainy weather, and it was a garment that could hide everything from head to toe.
If it were me, I would have never done something like hiding with a robe. Because the iron quirk wouldn’t allow that to happen.
But.
I knew how bizarre this ‘hole in the wall’ looked to others.
really broke
Anyway, the place I’m heading to is the church building where people are rare.
Maybe there is something called
There’s nothing wrong with being careful.
“Okay, then take good care of the house. Even if an evil Akasha comes and feeds you, don’t recklessly follow it or accept it.”
ㅡKong-Kong… !
After that, I left the club room.
I simply hid my head and face with a robe, but I felt like I had become a ‘different person’. I even feel like doing something bad.
Is it a remnant of the “Steel” quirk?
I feel like I’m doing something bad just by hiding my identity.
“Isn’t he, Victor?”
“For that height and size… . And even the sword looks like Viktor. Was Viktor the guy who wore the robe? In this hot weather.”
But why do you all recognize me?
It is difficult in many ways.
Abandoned church site near the old school, which arrived avoiding everyone’s eyes.
There is no particular reason why I came here.
It is because there are few places as perfect as this place to re-enter the ‘Dark Dimension’, which was entered with Enio’s help at that time.
“There he is.”
What I found after going to the back of the church was the ‘Statue of Beauty’.
The height is similar to mine.
A woman in a tight-fitting dress posing elegantly is pretty cool or should I say artistic?
It’s a goddess statue that has the effect of raising your charm level by 3 for 5 minutes when you pray. That in itself can be seen as a great effect in many ways, but—
I didn’t come here to pray or anything like that.
Let’s see, it’s just as I remembered it.
There is a difference between dot and real thing.
It is the same that the statue of the goddess standing on the wall is arranged in a ‘─┬─’ structure.
“I can enter, Dark Dimension.”
There are items that can be obtained by breaking the map around this statue of the goddess.
Even in this area alone, there are two [Aegis] and [Brisingamen].
“Aegis” is the highest level of armor that can be obtained in the story.
And 「Bringinggamen」 is also the highest grade accessory that can be obtained in the story, and you can only get it in Act 11, but you can get it right now if you have a wall piercing.
“It begins.”
I started banging my body against the statue and the wall at random.
rubbish, rubbish.
“… … .”
It’s uncomfortable.
Unlike when I tested it with the soft and warm body of Enio, the statue of the Goddess was hard and cold, and somehow it felt worse than I thought.
Imagine impaling your body against a marble statue mercilessly.
“It hurts from rubbing against the wall.”
Actually, there is a problem like this.
I was rubbing my body with that feeling for a long time.
“Is it hard? goddess statue. unnecessarily stiff Relax your body a bit.”
I feel embarrassed about a bug that doesn’t work as well as I thought, and I try to speed it up even more.
Since there are no direction keys, do I have to move the waist myself? Back and forth like this-.
“Hey, you there.”
I was startled when someone called up from behind.
This is an abandoned church.
It must be a place where no one approaches because there are rumors of ghosts.
“You there. If you do such a bad thing to the statue of the goddess, you will be punished.”
I looked around and found the owner of the voice.
But nothing was visible.
Are you hiding your face?
“But, I can see that you are doing such a blasphemous act. you are our comrade Aren’t you afraid of punishment?”
“comrade?”
“I can feel Leroy’s ‘baptism’ in you. It is a ritual performed only by officers. I don’t know why you have that energy… , This is not the time to be here.”
“… … ?”
“This area is being searched by the dogs of Seonghwangcheong. I’ll be patrolling here soon. You, if you were behaving blasphemously like you did just now, you would have been caught without a hitch.”
is it.
I heard and saw it.
“come here. I will guide you to our hideout.”
Sseuseuk.
Someone appeared out of the dark.
The guy was wearing a black mask and was probably a man.
Is it Pimblebert?
I wondered if it was a trap of some kind, but it didn’t seem like that.
He really thinks of me as a ‘comrade’.
Why?
“Why do you consider me your colleague?”
“There’s nothing to be too wary of. Do you have any paper? It’s this size and the pages look like they’ve been ripped out of a book. There may be letters written on it. It might even have a picture drawn on it.”
“… … .”
If there is paper.
in my pocket.
It’s just a blank paper with no pictures or text.
It was given to me by Enrique. Does it have anything to do with it?
That was the moment.
D-ring-.
“… … !”
A familiar sound was heard from somewhere.
It is a sound that no one else will know, but I will never forget.
─This.
This is the sound of an important quest happening in D&A.
「Scenario Quest: Infiltrate, to the wolf’s lair.」
“… … .”
… No, now I have a quest?
I don’t know what the heck is going on.
If I see a quest, breaking it suits my aptitude.
I’m the type of person who can’t stand exclamation marks in quests, so I break them all.
“Then I will guide you. let’s go.”

The place I arrived at was a shabby general store located near the old school building.
I wondered why you came here.
The old owner of this place saw the black masked face and adjusted the hour and minute hands of the clock hanging on the wall.
Then, the floor between the shelves slumps downward with a rattling sound.
“Secret stairs?”
“Come in before anyone sees!”
I had to hide underground in the back of the Dawning Society.
I thought I would be trapped in a cramped space.
“here is… .”
what is this
There was a larger space than expected in the basement of the cramped general store.
“Do you think this is the first time Comrade is coming here? This place was being used as a moonshine brewing ground years ago. It’s a place where you can make drinks.”
is it.
Somehow it smelled like alcohol.
There are tables, chairs and beds.
There are people who stand guard.
There is only one conclusion drawn from this view.
This is Pimblebert’s secret hideout.
I never thought there would be a place like this inside Ludens.
It was dark under the lamp, but it was real.
Then someone who guided me took off his mask and asked.
“Is your comrade that person? The spy that our leader, Leroy, has secretly planted in Ludens. None of the executives said they knew the identity.”
The guy was a man.
The brown curly hair is impressive.
Are you a graduate?
It’s a face I don’t know.
The same goes for the other guys taking off their masks.
Everyone was a face I didn’t know.
graduates or dropouts.
Or maybe he’ll be expelled.
Fimblebert is a group of villains formed by people who are dissatisfied with Ludens like that.
then someone said
“Cole, didn’t you bring someone too arbitrarily?”
“Yes, in a messy time like these days.”
Are you limiting me
No wonder.
But the man called Cole shook his head.
“This guy has Leroy’s badge. Comrade, can you show it to everyone? Proof that you are on our side.”
Paper as evidence?
I took out a note and showed it to everyone.
A note with nothing written on it.
Seeing that, the eyes of the villains widen.
