33 – I hate assembly like this! (2)
[ Unexpected Quest: Find a club member! (Beginner) ]
[ – Let’s find a club member somewhere in the academy and say hello. (0/5) ]
[ – Reward: Hidden Stat ‘Leadership’ ]
Shortly after the solicitation started, I saw the notification window that popped up and spat out curse words in my heart.
‘Are you going to give me a quest at this f*cking busy timing?’
I can feel the malice. Can’t you see that line next to the booth right now?
Bad notification window. Purebred dog.
I didn’t want to do what the cheeky notification window told me to do, so I wanted to just ignore it, but it was too much of a reward for that. I can’t stand hidden stats.
Also, Lunatic Soul’s quests look damn good at first glance, but if you can’t clear them, they don’t even come out in the first place. And the harder it is, the greater the reward.
In the case of this quest, the content is ‘beginner’, but the difficulty is on the side because the rewards are good. Since there were no conditions to meet when and how, it means that it is okay to go around after the booth is over.
Fortunately, as long as you follow the contents of Lunatic Soul’s quest, the process is not tight anyway, and you pass the pass decision.
‘Let’s go find it once the work here is finished.’
At that time, an uninvited guest came to visit me.
A beautiful woman with blond green eyes, with her hair braided in an old-fashioned way.
“Nice to meet you, Count Peirosis So. My name is Serien Garatroso, and I will be joining your Culinary Research Society in the future.”
Serien Garatroso.
‘f*ck,’
Out of all the academy students, he was the most hated bastard in the vast grassland.
Yes, beauty is right. Ability? Not very good She is seemingly the perfect woman to have as her companion.
But this guy is the ‘first trap’ ambitiously prepared by Lunatic Soul. But the problem is that once she falls in, she can go straight to the entrance of the abyss.
Her nickname among users was ‘novice killer’, so I said it all. She puts on a sweet sugar decoration on the outside, but after licking her a few times, she f*cks her users with a taste that is more out of the ordinary than Aisha’s cooking.
It’s because of Aisha’s northern-level personality and her 4-dimensional personality… It’s more accurate to say that she has a multi-dimensional personality, not a 4-dimensional one.
80% Of the incidents at the academy start with this guy.
And if she takes Serien as an ally, she makes the quest five times harder, an insane act she would never do if she were a person loaded with common sense.
The novices who recruited this guy as her colleague without knowing anything were blocked by the Wailing Wall, and ended up deleting her data with tears in their eyes. So she’s a rookie killer.
But what? She’s going to participate in the cooking research society in the future? This dog came to cook my life.
“Yes, go in carefully.”
I don’t buy it.
[ Discover club members! (1/5) ]
Ah! I don’t live!

I thought I heard it wrong. Could the words “Enter carefully” Be used in the sense of welcome?
After pondering what Count So said for a while, I came to the idea that he pushed me away. It is nonsense. Countess So refuses to say hello to the princess?
“I… What did you just say?”
Then Count So said with a broad smile.
“Sorry. It seems that the words came out wrong without me knowing because I was in such a hurry.”
hehehe~ Of course it is. There’s no way she would say something so rude to me, her princess. Any sane noble should consider it an honor just for me to be in the same club.
“My name is Luatir Peirosis. Sorry for not being able to welcome you properly.”
“It’s okay.”
That level of generosity can be given. But can we talk a little bit more? It’s because I have a higher priority than the people waiting in line to get tteokbokki.
“I’m here to discuss the future schedule. It’s hard to talk in a place like this, so shall we move for a while?”
She smiled and raised her hand slightly. Ruler! Let me give you the honor of escorting me. I can understand if you don’t wash your hands for a day or so. This is something that no one can afford!
“Sorry.”
…What did you just say?
—–
‘A real crazy b*tch.’
Looking at it, it seems to be true that this year is a member of the club, so he quickly changed his attitude. Anyway, it’s the same club, but it’s not good if it’s already creaking.
But after all, Serien is Serien. The class is different.
A power supremacist. He is a single-minded general even worse than Aisha. It is the highest peak of those who do not listen to the words of those weaker than themselves, showing a thorough hierarchical relationship.
Can’t you see the crowds waiting in line here to receive super luxurious tteokbokki? Are you blind?
Perhaps from her point of view, nobles who are much lower than herself would not even come into her eyes. You’d think it was just a flying fly.
“Eh, yes…?”
Why does Ji look shocked? Are you going to lose brilliantly?
“There are a lot of people waiting. Wouldn’t these people be wasting their time if I didn’t?”
“No… Why is someone the size of Count So…”
Snout. Then you have nothing to say if I ignore you?
It sounds a bit funny to say that the Count, and Countess So, ignores the Princess, but in terms of actual power, I have the upper hand with the Archwitch.
Now my stats have dropped by half, but I can’t ignore my individual abilities. Even if he has gone from the latter half to the middle half, he can reign as a leading force in the academy.
I know that, so even if I say this, that power supremacist can’t protest at all.
“You can take a moment for lunch. Can you come back then?”
“Ah, ah… Yes…”
Serien didn’t think she would be rejected. She trudged back the way she came with a dazed expression.
Anyway, power-hungry nobles… Come to think of it, Garatroso was the main force behind the Great Nobility War.
As I was about to reach for the ingredients to focus on making tteokbokki again, someone snatched my hand.
When I looked away in surprise, Aisha with a very satisfied smile was lightly placing a truffle on the palm of my hand.
A very benevolent smile that dares to compare with Lit Maman… Who are you? The Aisha I know doesn’t smile like this!
“Very good.”
Yes? Tteokbokki? Was it that delicious?
“From now on, treat the remaining 3 members in the same way.”
Ah… You liked the girl who came in as a club member coldly. But what? 3 People?
After reading my thoughts, Aisha answered freely.
“Three of the next four will be female.”
Ow sheck! The harem angle rose sharply. My luck is already starting to work.
Since Gartroso appeared as the first hitter, the rest must be a solid lineup, right? If possible, it would be nice if they were guys who would like me plainly.
Of course, Serien is out of the harem. You can’t go back.
“Who is coming in?”
“So, check it out sooner.”
It’s thrilling and nice to watch without knowing that. Serien was the thrill of a blowfish poison, but the rest is still a bit normal.
As I looked at it with anticipation, Aisha smiled and said,
“Don’t panic.”
Ready! Ready!
“The names of the other four are…”
When I heard the names of the rest of the members coming out of Aisha’s mouth, I almost fainted while spinning her heads.
Poetry, my God. Why… Why are you giving me this ordeal!
‘Senior bastard… Second-seat bastard…’
Unbeknownst to me, the Cooking Research Club had become a gathering place for the two biggest scumbags of Lunatic Soul, chosen by users.
Holy crap. Why don’t you come together… Just get lost.

I don’t know how long I’ve been wandering aimlessly around the Culinary Institute. I suddenly came to my senses when my legs started to ache.
‘Hot! Why am I wasting my time like this!’
As a member of the Garatroso family, this is an impossible mistake. How dare you use the limited time given to me like this!
It was that shocking. I could never have thought he cared more about the other lower nobles than me!
Aren’t they the ones who don’t even think about cultivating the dignity of an aristocrat, and just do their best to maintain a basic standard of living by relying on their position!
In that sense, I really hate it, but Shamilton is better. At least that female cat is a person who is constantly trying to improve herself.
Even if you ignore them in one word, they are a tribe that takes being ignored for granted. And it should be natural.
Originally, aristocrats should stand above the common people and enlighten and lead them. That’s why the rank is set even in the nobility, and the higher the position, the more dignified it must be.
Of course, even I, the 4th Duke, cannot deviate from that standard. Isn’t that why I’m doing my best without being complacent?
‘That kind of me…’
I can’t ignore his achievements enough to be angry that Count So simply ignored me. He rose to prominence even before reaching adulthood, becoming her archwitch’s apprentice and ending the Frozen Blood War with her.
If you are not a person who is strict with yourself and disciplines yourself, you will never be able to do it. So he was secretly expecting to talk to him.
‘Let’s approach politely again.’
If you think about it, the eyes that looked at me from the beginning were not very friendly. Maybe I did a disservice to him without even knowing, or there could be some circumstances that I don’t know about.
As soon as I thought that, a person’s face naturally came to my mind.
‘No way… Shamilton!!’
If the she-cat of Shamilton had approached Count Taw before me and made a note of it, then Count Taw’s attitude towards me makes all sense.
I couldn’t tell how much time had passed because I was wandering around in a state of mindlessness, but I had to go back to him right now.
Arriving at the booth of the Culinary Institute, I saw the woman standing next to Count So and bit her lip gently.
“Tinyasif… Shamilton!!”
