Chapter 131 – I Like Him, I Like Him (01)
When recharging normally without fighting, it was recharged little by little by holding hands and waiting while inserting negative energy, or by kissing to charge it a little faster, but when the power was running out quickly like now, there was only one way to use it.
“Oh, it’s hot!”
Although his body was overheated and hot, if he waited for it to cool down, Golem No. 2 could have lost power and turned off completely.
Thanks to that, I quickly sprayed water on it to cool it down and then charged it right away, but my lower body was still hot and I felt like I was going to die.
Even if it’s not a burn, it feels like a low-temperature burn…
In reality, I would have to live with ice on my crotch for a few days, but fortunately, my body was able to return to a healthy state because the negative energy was released during the charging process to cool me down.
‘Thanks to you, it took quite some time…’
It’s definitely not modified properly and is only modified for combat, so it’s difficult every time it’s charged.
Moreover, today I was overheated and hot, so I felt like it was really bad for my stamina, and I thought that if I did something wrong, I would end up like a boiled egg.
When I looked at the constellations and checked the time using the [Star Wizard] Ability, it took about an hour.
“I’ve been there… Uh…”
I thought everyone was sleeping, but surprisingly, everyone was awake.
Golem No. 2 had woken up earlier due to the heavy drinking, and even though everyone was tired from walking all day today, it seemed like they were waiting for me.
Everyone’s affection has been reduced so much that the average is around 3.
‘I don’t want to go in’
For some reason, I didn’t want to go in there.
Just like when you don’t want to go home after failing an exam, you feel anxious and can’t easily go into the tent.
“Brother. Come in for a moment.”
Since Marianne just called me, she missed the moment to tell me that she was going to spend some time with me.
“Hehe… Sister…”
It was very easy to free Marian, so she went in with a charming smile on her face, and her expression her slightly relaxed, her affection level rising, but then her expression returned to her cold expression her her Her, placing me in the very center of them. It was made to sit down.
‘For some reason, I feel like I’m being interrogated’
“Tell your sister honestly.”
“Yes.”
“What did you do with that golem just now?”
“I brought that back after charging it.”
Marianne’s eyes turned to my disheveled belt and pants.
If you wear it too tight, your skin will tingle, so if you leave it loose, it will be noticeable when you take it off.
“Really?”
“Well, then!”
Although Marianne’s affection level went down a bit, it seemed like she was at an acceptable level, seeing as she wasn’t completely cut off.
“Does Aren like his sister?”
Well, such an obvious statement.
“Yes.”
“Don’t you love me?”
Since she has affection, wouldn’t it be possible to say does she love?
Of course, I can’t see her own level of affection, but I think she cares for everyone quite a bit.
‘What? Wait for a second. This feels like some sort of trap?’
I thought about it for a moment.
First of all, there is a certain amount of correction in the favorability system, so for example, if I was close to Ophelia, after the treason event, Cylian’s favorability would drop to the bottom.
So, I was friends with the Cylians in the first episode, but after the treason event, the Cylians turned almost hostile, so I had a hard time.
First of all, likeability is one thing, but since affection is only for adult mode anyway, I thought it wouldn’t affect each other… Is there a connection?
‘Oh… Wait a minute…’
If so, it was a big deal.
Right now, I’m playing with the harem meta.
I was wondering what would happen if it was discovered that I was putting myself on the line, so I looked back at the reactions of my other friends.
Inori was trying to cover her ears, pretending not to hear, Alice was glancing at her mouth with her anxious face, and Melissa was desperately looking at me with an expression as if she was saying no.
‘Ah… This… Wasn’t it possible to have multiple relationships?’
No, so it’s not systematically blocked, but is it controlling the balance in such a way that if the person you love does something like that with someone else, your level of affection decreases?
And I was wondering why something like this was said, but judging by the atmosphere, while I went to recharge Golem No. 2, the women said something and then I thought, wow? It seemed like everyone felt something strong.
So far I’ve been in the middle and there haven’t been many sexual metaphors, so what? I tried to do it, but I passed on it, but I guess this incident somehow spread the fact that I was a bit… Light-handed.
So, in an atmosphere that became more hostile, as soon as I came in, Marian seemed to be planning to confirm in front of others that she was her official lover.
‘What should I do?’
In fact, originally, party members should be composed based on likeability, but I created a party based on affection because it was convenient and because we were comfortable together for a long time.
Then, I didn’t know that we would have problems with each other due to love issues.
‘The only person who will understand this is Inori… No. Inori may say it’s okay on the outside, but on the inside she’ll be disappointed and her affection will drop significantly. ‘
It’s difficult.
In this case, what is the correct answer?
Even in romantic comedies, there are always fights between fans over who is the ally, and it was really embarrassing to be in that position.
As I was unable to answer and was just thinking about it, Marianne came closer to me, grabbed my hand, and started to subtly apply pressure.
“Don’t you love your sister?”
“Marian. Don’t force your lord to answer.”
When Inori, who couldn’t see it, stepped in and spoke, Marian’s eyes turned cold and she turned back to Inori, and in the middle of them, Melissa looked like she was about to cry.
Moreover, everyone’s affection level has dropped again due to what happened just now, and I thought that if things continued like this, things might really break down or a civil war could break out between us.
“Everyone stop. I mean…”
If you make a mistake here, it will be the same as the first time.
In other words, I had to wake up until the end alone with Marian.
The character could change to someone else, but I didn’t want to do a single-player strategy on Hell Difficulty, so I desperately tried to think through it.
“I like them all?”
At that moment, everyone’s affection disappeared as if evaporating.
* * *
“Ugh…”
It was no longer the case that my affection level would disappear if I stayed in the tent, but my hatred level would increase, so I ended up going outside and spending the night with Golem No. 2.
“Golem No. 2, you won’t trouble me with something like that, right?”
“-If the creator and the charger hate each other, I’ll be the only one in trouble-“
No, I don’t think it’s to that extent… The level of hatred did rise slightly, very slightly.
Fortunately, because it was a political issue, the favorability level remained the same, so the party didn’t break up in the middle, but for now, everyone is… Should I say bloody?
“Ugh… That’s a pain in the ass.”
But what can you do?
If you choose one person here, the rest will disappear at that moment.
‘It was something that would explode someday…’
Actually, I didn’t lie.
If I had said something like ‘I’m the only one’ on a daily basis, the hatred among all four people would have reached its peak, and we wouldn’t have known what kind of accident would happen.
At least, it became a problem because what I had always suspected while thinking, ‘Is this guy really possible?’ Was confirmed.
“Hehe. Okay. Let’s think positively.”
If you blow up one by one in order, there will be problems persuading people, but it might have been better to blow up all together.
And right now, I was in the middle of a mission, and since it was in the outskirts with no people around, I had plenty of time.
“You’re saying the favorability rating is low? If that’s the case, you can raise it even higher!”
If there was an element that made it less likable, filling it with more than that would be the same as not having any impact.
Vitality is reduced by 5 per second, but if the regeneration rate exceeds 50, the affection level is reduced by 45, so wouldn’t it be enough to replenish it?
Thinking like that, the first thing I did was use ‘voice’ to summon Inori.
“Yes, my lord.”
For some reason, his voice was less welcoming and blunt than usual, and it felt blunt, as if it was ‘inevitable’.
If it had been before, you wouldn’t have been able to tell the difference, but now she seemed quite disappointed, so I went behind her, overlapping my shadow over Inori’s shadow her her her her.
“What’s wrong? Are you sad about something?”
“…”
He hugged the waist of Inori, who was wearing a mask with a sullen expression, and held her close. Fortunately, the level of hatred didn’t increase, and more than anything, Inori already knew that I had sex with other women, so she didn’t seem to be too shocked. It was.
Instead, it seems like he was disappointed that something like that was happening right in front of his eyes her.
Still, I hugged her from behind and gently stroked her head, and her affection was recovering again. I took off her mask slightly, touched her lips her her, and brought her face closer, so I could not bear it anymore and she lowered her head. Turn.
Refusing to kiss, it’s been a while.
“Inori is on my side, right?”
“…”
At those words, Inori’s lips twitched her little by little, and her affection could be seen bubbling up.
“I am always on your side.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“That’s what I’m saying, but I think the class president is a little dangerous.”
“I know it’s dangerous, but does that mean you can kill my own person?”
She thought that her affection level was decreasing a little, but she just accepted it silently, as if Inori didn’t have any feelings.
“I predicted Alice, but when did Melissa…?”
“Oh, that’s right… How did it happen?”
“…”
“I’m not going to increase it any further. Really!”
“I don’t trust you.”
Actually, I don’t trust this guy’s adult mode either, so I can’t trust him.
Considering that the [Golem Maker] Trait did not appear despite holding Melissa, it seemed that the four traits a companion trainee could collect was the limit.
Then there is no need to increase it further.
After confirming that Inori’s affection level had risen back to its original level, I slowly brought my face to her lips and, unlike before, she accepted my lips.
“…The hostess told me to be careful of bad men. How did this happen…”
Even as she said that, seeing Inori’s eyes were moist, her sad feelings seemed to have eased.
‘Who wants to be next… Alice first?’
“Even now, my face shows that you are thinking about other women in front of me.”
I won’t be able to fool Inori from now on.
