013. Siana Plaen (3)
No matter how much I put my life into ＜Warriors Kingdom＞, in the end I am just a human being.
My memory is limited. I’m not a genius who memorizes everything I read once.
As a result, I can’t remember everything in this world.
of course! I know all the important things like most stories, sub-quests, and special events. Because I did a lot of sh*t. This is the most important thing.
What I don’t remember is the detailed stats of the rest of the characters or specialties that have no impact.
In fact, this talk is close to a joke.
I’ll take ‘Euron Taylor-Joy’ as an example that keeps bothering me.
This kid will definitely try to fight with me within the first semester.
However?
‘That bastard is really a deaf boy.’
He’s really an extra 1 guy passing by. … … Of course, he’s a guy with more presence than ‘Aren Blackfire’.
Anyway, there was no way I could remember the detailed stats of that guy. There’s no need to memorize even the detailed stats of passing idiots, right?
But those trivial things are very disturbing to my ‘slow & peace academy life’.
some kind of variable
I can’t be humiliated by losing to Euron because I can’t understand my opponent properly, right? Since we’re in the same class B, there’s no reason why we’d lose on purpose.
More than anything, I want to make sure that bastard is unlucky and will catch me and beat me.
In the end, in order to block variables that may occur anytime and anywhere, I need ‘mind’s eye’.
Just by reading the opponent’s ability, you can respond to tolerable variables.
At least it’s because I don’t know what ability it is.
It is also very helpful when using ‘Shadow’.
If the opponent’s stats are unknown, it is difficult to properly determine the magic power to feed the shadow.
The opponent’s strength stat is 15, but it’s obviously a loss to use 25 mana just in case.
So I rationalized it.
‘If it’s to gain peace of mind… … .’
It would be okay to get close to Shiana for a while. If you control it well, it could be a relationship where you can only see benefits.
“Come here! wait a minute.”
Siana brought me to the back entrance of the Magical Zoo and Zoo. Maybe it’s because he’s in charge of the manager’s role, so he doesn’t have to go through the front door.
As she whispered an incantation, the seal on the tightly locked door was lifted.
Saaa-
When the door opened, the sweet fragrance of flowers and fruits flowed from the inside of the Magical Zoo and Aquarium.
‘It makes me feel better.’
It is definitely a space that Siana would like.
warm and peaceful No one bothers or hurts her here. You don’t even know how time flies when you interact with strange and cute animals and plants.
When Siana finishes her classes, she spends her time here unconditionally until the dorm curfew.
‘Recently, I’ve been spending a little longer with me, but… … .’
“Come in, Aren!”
Cyana gently gestured.
I entered the zoo and botanical garden with admiration inwardly.
Seeing with your own eyes, hearing with your ears, and smelling the scent with your nose is a different experience than seeing it only through a game.
Literally, this is a ‘magic’ zoo.
It was full of all sorts of mystical things.
Belong-Belong!
The bellows’ cry greeted me first. Next, a dance flower that produces magic through photosynthesis and dances like seaweed in the sea caught my attention. Miraculous!
“Aren, Aren! Here it is, here!”
Shiana grabbed the hem of my sleeve and walked in front of me, fearing that I would get lost and lose my way.
Certainly, this place is so vast and dense that if you go wrong, you’ll get lost.
What was so exciting about Shiana was that her gait was fast. I was led by her hand without resistance.
The place I arrived at was a corner full of pink cotton wool trees.
shh-
Cyana had been walking very cautiously since before, putting her index finger to her mouth.
“Hey, gyaru cats are very shy, so you have to approach them carefully.”
Shiana only spoke to me with her mouth. The corners of his mouth were raised smoothly, like a child introducing himself to a new friend.
‘I’m excited, I’m excited.’
Was I bored because I was alone? After all, man is a social animal. It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t alone.
In other words, Sianna needed a friend to be comfortable with, and that was me. I don’t even know why it’s me.
To emphasize once again, the question ‘why?’ to Siana is really useless.
As she got closer to the pink cottonwood, she stopped.
I even took a deep breath.
“Menya- Rooming-”
no what Isn’t that the best way to sneak up on you and then call out in a loud voice!
Meow-!
Meow!
Even cats answer?
They say it’s really hard to see a gyaru cat cry… … .
What the hell was Siana doing here?
A gyaru cat came down the pine tree. The gyaru-like eyes came into view at a glance. Glittering powder falls from the corner of the eye.
Meong-
Myaaa-
“Mena! Looming! How have you been?”
Siana petted the cats with gyaru eyes. I never dreamed that cats could be such affectionate animals.
“Aren, Aren! Do you want to touch me?”
Siana lifted her gyaru cat. The cat’s eyelashes are very burdensome. However, cats are cats and they are cute.
meowong.
I carefully pet Menya. The hair is very soft. The purring sound calmed my mind.
It is a peaceful landscape.
‘This is a real break.’
Even if it wasn’t just Siana, I would still want to come and heal every day.
Sianna greeted me a few more times before standing up.
“Let’s go, Aren! I’ll give you a haircut.”
“yes.”
I followed Siana.
Meong! Myaaa! Listening to the gyaru cat’s cry that is hard to see.
* * *
“Look at this, Aren.”
The Magical Fauna was much larger than I expected.
Although I knew that the facilities were good and spacious as it was a royal academy, it was at the level of a zoo.
There was even a cabin for students who manage the Magical Fauna.
It seems that Siana spends a lot of time in this cabin. There were quite a few piles of his own items, such as combs and textbooks.
She brought a small wooden box and opened it right in front of my eyes.
There were indeed several tufts of purple hair in it. It must be the hairballs of those gyarucats from earlier!
“A bundle of hair! Mena and Rumingie wow! Did I put one together? Look at this, isn’t it so cute and gentle?”
Shiana treats the hair ball like a marshmallow and asks me to touch it too. Boy, it’s clear that I really missed people. It’s very active.
“ruler!”
Cianna pulled out a ball of hair and handed it to me.
“Is this what you need?”
“ah.”
It’s crazy how easy it is to get this. In this world view, Gyaru Cat hair balls are more expensive than the highest quality mana stones. Sianna really treated this like a stray cat’s hair ball.
“Can I just give you this?”
I was curious and asked. Siana raised her eyebrows and said.
“Yes. Anyway, those kids often make it and spit it out.”
okay? All the mazozoologists couldn’t make the gyaru cat feel comfortable, even if they tried to wrap their heads around it, but Cyana did it so naturally.
Not to mention looking at hair balls… … .
Certainly, the way Cyana treats animals is different. Even in the original game, her genius and affinity with animals and plants were described as special.
It’s a problem because it’s specialized only for animals and plants, not for people… … But when you see how he treats me, it doesn’t seem like it.
Anyway, the result was a jackpot for a gamble. To get something out of Shiana. And in such a peaceful state!
“thank you.”
“Nothing. Hey Aren! Shall I show you something fun?”
Shiana went somewhere else with an excited face and opened the drawer. Judging by the fact that he even chanted a spell, it seemed that he was hiding something valuable.
‘What again this time?’
Should I ask for something good? Gradually, Shiana began to feel comfortable. It gives me confidence that I can somehow control myself.
“Look at this, Aren. What is this?”
Shiana undid the cloth pouch in front of me.
And I realized what a stupid idea I just had. Controlling Cyana is nonsense.
‘Eh, what is this… … ?’
At first glance, it looks like reptile skin. Violet mana is leaking out minutely through the cracks.
… … i know what this is magic of demons.
“Siana. what’s this?”
“Yes? I don’t know this. I just picked it up.”
I know I just picked it up. It must have come from the dung of a newly adopted jumbo elephant. I don’t know why. The game company set it up that way.
The important thing is not this.
‘Why are you showing me the pieces of the hiven?’
Hive’s Fragment.
Fragmented Hiven… … King of Pride.
One of Thanatos’ henchmen, one of the villains in charge of the brain, and a boss mob that appears at the end of Act 1.
According to the story of the game, Deianne, who serves the demons, is looking for this piece, and one day, as Shiana picks it up, an incident erupts.
It’s the event where Deianne kidnaps Cyana.
Ackerman and her party, who were supposed to have a meal with Sianna, come to the zoo and botanical garden to find her when she doesn’t come at the appointed time.
In other words, if things are going as normal, now, Cianna is getting closer to Ackerman and the others.
The process will be very bloody, though.
‘No. Are they getting close?’
Come to think of it, lately, you’ve been almost only with me.
Originally, at this point, Ackerman, Ponte, and Hoya infiltrate the zoo and botanical garden to secretly steal plants that are said to be good for muscles. Then, it would have been caught by Siana and the catfish would have been crushed.
In the end, Ackerman wants to apologize and makes a dinner date to get acquainted.
… … That would be the content of the game. It’s going well, right?
Anxiety that comes on suddenly.
Coming back to my story, why did Cyana show this to me? Let’s check this first.
“Just pick it up? Are there any injured animals?”
I pretended not to know
“Ugh. no. None of my friends have skin like this. This is just picked up. I don’t know what.”
“Then why are you showing this to me?”
“just! it’s amazing I think I became a little closer with Aren. he-“
After all, there is nothing more foolish than asking Sianna ‘why’.
You shouldn’t attach any meaning to this kid’s actions.
Because it’s boring, just because it looks fun, because it’s cute. It’s just for such a sad reason. There must be no special reason for approaching me. It must be for a cool reason.
The bottom line is that Siana just got to know me and showed me something interesting. It’s a childlike idea. The problem is that it’s a piece of Hiven’s skin… … .
If you think about it carefully, there’s not much of a problem. It doesn’t even seem like they’re secretly watching us from around here. Just react moderately and that’s it.
‘The important thing is whether I became close with Ackerman.’
I might feel a little offended, but I can’t help it. Because I have to check.
“It is interesting. But now it’s a bit late. I have to go.”
“ah… … okay?”
Siana looks sad.
“Do you have any appointments today?”
It’s a risky gamble. I don’t know how the review will be twisted if I ask such a question. I still got a hair ball… … .
“yes!? promise? Ah, promise. Come to think of it, I have an appointment tomorrow. I forgot… … .”
“okay? with who? This is the first time I see you meeting anyone other than me.”
Unbeknownst to me, I talk a lot. In fact, isn’t it an [aristocratic] act to ask a lady about her personal schedule? You should get the answer you want as it is a question without rudeness.
Shiana replied with an indifferent expression.
“I’m a combat student like Aren, but I don’t want to go. I’m not particularly friendly. I’m uncomfortable… … . I would just refuse.”
Wow. When Ackerman first met Cyana, she must have felt this way.
It is a fact that I did not know at all when I smiled kindly and answered. The truth is that Siana had no interest in Ackerman from the beginning!
‘As it turned out, Siana was a master at the highest level in social life.’
Then, Shiana hooked up and came in.
“Yes, Aren.”
“yes?”
“I don’t want to go to an appointment.”
why are you telling me that What, I wanted to say. When I didn’t answer, she pressed on.
“Am I meeting those friends?”
what… … this?
Are you telling me not to leave now?
haha.
“It’s a promise.”
no. They say the story only flows when you leave.
“I mean, it’s awkward.”
“This is how we become friends.”
Did you cut it too short? Siana pursed her lips.
“Then Aren, eat with me.”
write… … His eyes are slightly cold. Wouldn’t it be a bit of a headache if I refused even this?
Well, for a smooth story, it’s about eating a meal.
Shiana seems to have a crush on me too. Rather, it would be more dangerous to refuse here.
“Okay.”
“really? It’s real! There is no breaking promise.”
Siana opened her face like an anime character. really bright simple guy.
“yes.”
“When? When to eat! Let’s eat what Aren wants to eat.”
“Let’s decide that when you return.”
“Sir. Decide now.”
I mean, you’re pretty stubborn.
I thought I’d go over it in moderation, but I can’t help it.
“Then let’s set it for next week.”
“Next monday? Okay!”
Shiana nodded in agreement. I’m a bit relieved now Next week, Sianna will go through some work and recover.
* * *
After many twists and turns, he fell out with Siana.
To be honest, it wasn’t a bad time. It was amazing to spend time with the game characters, and it was also nice to walk around and see the magical flora and fauna to my heart’s content.
More than anything, I especially liked that Siana was kind to me. It wouldn’t be bad if Shiana, who doesn’t usually get along with people, only treats me kindly.
If you coax it well, it’s like a huge option and weapon for me.
I also finished checking the progress of the story.
Ackerman and the others mess around as per the story, but Shiana explodes, and they make an appointment for tomorrow.
Now, Ciana is kidnapped by Deianne tomorrow, and Ackerman and his party just need to save her.
Then, the signal for the resurrection of the boss in Act 1 sounded smoothly. No, the beginning of the ＜Warriors Kingdom＞ epic would be a little more accurate.
‘Okay, it’s going smoothly.’
As I nodded to myself, Viktor stared blankly at me.
They are still clamoring for why I didn’t eat with Siana at that time. You don’t seem to know the story behind it.
‘Seeing things like this, I really don’t understand why Siana is only doing this to me’
The fact that he followed me around is an unsolved mystery itself.
… … There is only one thing left.
It is the ‘Eye of the Mind’ that I have been researching for a long time.
Some outlines came out.
The way to make the mind’s eye belong to the ‘dimensional realm’ through the shadow.
There was just one ingredient missing. And finally, I got all the ingredients.
You must have gotten the gyaru cat’s hair ball too, there’s no reason to delay any longer.
There will be more and more Dalian classes in the future, but mind-eye is essential to me.
‘Let’s do it tomorrow.’
After thinking for a long time, I decided to perform a sorcery in the vacant lot of the Magical Zoo and Zoo tomorrow.
◆In Santech car, in Santech car.
No.2. You must shout with the loudest voice. It is good to have a wide space so that the voice can spread widely.
The condition itself is a wide open space and you have to memorize the spell in a loud voice, because that’s the only place in the academy where you can do that.
Fortunately, thanks to going out with Siana today, I have been paying attention to the right place.
Besides, there was one more reason for choosing that place.
It is to monitor whether the story is going well.
The place is also the place, and the time is also the time when things happen, so it will be possible to observe the situation from a little distance. Then you will be able to deal with any unforeseen situations.
Suddenly, I had this thought.
‘I’m just asking you to rest in peace, so why are you so busy?’
When will the academy life where you can rest comfortably… … ?
I don’t know, let’s go to sleep.
My man really thought he can have a peaceful time kekw
