Chapter 3 – In the hospital.Avi

Three days have passed since that day’s oath.

What happened in between was surprisingly peaceful.

He had destroyed the heir of the county family, but he doubted how peaceful it could be.

Of course, after all, Rexton Wise is the perpetrator of school violence and I am the victim, but there is no way that the nobles of the kingdom can get over this.

But that peace will probably last until today. The lady-in-waiting, who looked like a nurse, told me in the morning that we could visit after lunch from today, so I went.

“As I expected, they would have to come in and report all sorts of nonsense to the disciplinary committee.”

Thump thump

‘This mouth is right, damn it. How do you never escape clichés?’

I cursed at the sound of knocking, but at the same time I cleared my mind.

Now that I have set the goal for this episode, I have no intention of going back. I’ve already learned to some extent how to roast and boil a nobleman for a just cause through my experience in multiple rounds, so if I can lead it only through the negligence of both sides, I’ll be suspended.

“You may come in.”

As I sorted out my thoughts, I spoke to the person outside the door, and the door burst open.

“I heard you broke your ribs, but you’re doing better than I thought. Artin?”

Surprisingly, it was not the nobles of the kingdom who entered the hospital room, but an unforgettable character.

Except for his red hair his, Zorba Felkas is the one who best fits the title of golden sun in this novel. As the next successor to the top of the Felcas, the Grand Mercantile Corps of the Republic of Korea, this guy has a considerable weight in the original novel as the main character’s fundraiser and helper.

Of course, the reason I became close with the main character was because I felt a crush on Artin, the childhood friend who died in Rexton, the main character who avenged me instead.

“Still, the sullen face is still the same. When I heard that you destroyed Rexton, I thought you’d finally become a bit more manly.”
“But weren’t you the one who advised her to beat up Rexton since she was little?”
“Heh, a real man should never be looked down upon anywhere.”

If that was the case, would you have beaten it earlier? While knowing that Artin, the owner of this body, is weak.

Though she thinks so, she doesn’t get excited even when she sees Zorba smiling smirkingly.

Zorba has always been a strong supporter to me during the numerous events of the multi-session. It was to the point where I doubted that she saw me as more than a friend, but since she is a prodigal who always changes women, the suspicions are put aside.

“Anyway, I didn’t know you would come first. I thought someone from the Wise family came to notify the disciplinary committee.”

At my words, Zorba puts on a confident expression as if she knew that.

“As always, this older brother Zorba solved Artin’s brother’s problem.”
“What do you mean, solving problems?”
“It is as I said. Artin, you will not be called to the disciplinary committee.”

Could it be that Zorba has done something again?

“I gathered people who saw that Rexton harassed you and hit you first. And before the people of the Weiss family contacted us, we contacted them first and received all the testimonies.”

Saying so, Zorba took out a piece of paper he had brought and showed it.

I accepted and read it, and as extenuating circumstances due to discussions with the Wise family, both Rexton and I were given provisional suspensions of two weeks.

“It’s an unprecedentedly generous treatment of making a person covered in blood in two weeks. Is it alright if you respect me Artin?”
“Older brother! Brother Zorba! I dared to doubt my brother! Please forgive this ugly brother!”

He is a Zorba guy who always talks about his older brother even though he is only one year older, but at times like this, if he was a woman rather than a man, I think it would be okay to have him as an older sister .

A true hero who always appears when I am in trouble..!!

“In addition, you spread rumors throughout the school to make sure you don’t look down on me next time. Now, I won’t be teased for being a gloomy Artin anywhere.”

At those words, my face hardened. Was the red madman your fault?

“Do I really have to insert strange rumors into the silent passing?”
“Artin, things like this are bound to be rumored anyway. If that’s the case, it’s best to spread it from this side first, right? Making a profit from rumors is the basics of being a merchant.”

I’m not a merchant, so I’m 10 years old..!!

Still, unlike the idiot-like title, his ability seemed pretty good to the eyes, so it’s okay to say something.

But seeing Zorba’s smug face makes him a little annoyed. When you cheat later, you have to secretly cheat on the other person.

“Go now, seeing your smug face makes my ribs hurt even more.”
“This! I still have a 3-on-3 blind date with the ladies of the Empire in 20 minutes, so I think I’ll have to go soon!”

Someone is lying in a hospital bed, and someone is dating an octopus on a blind date every episode.

I feel it once again, but this world seems so unfair. When can I not get stabbed with a kitchen knife?

“Don’t make that face, Artin, because sooner or later Xiaomei will come too.”
“Come to think of it, I thought you would come with me, but why did you come alone?”
“I skipped class to go on a blind date!”

The guy who was showing off the motto of enjoying life said goodbye to see you next time and disappeared.

Even if she just lived her life like that, Zorba Felcas is a named-level supporting character, and her lineage and talent her are different from mine, so even if I leave her alone, she will grow well on her own, so I decided to leave her alone.

“By the way, this is the first time I’ve seen Xiao-Mei… “

Artin Ludwig has two childhood friends. One is Zorba Felcas, whom we just saw, and the other is Lin Xiaomei. What kind of childhood friends are two for a supporting actor who doesn’t have a lot of space?

And, I think, he is also the person who will play a very important role in this episode.

“Older brother! I’m finally here!! Are you okay!!!”

Then, as soon as I finished thinking, the door opened as if it was about to be smashed, and a woman came in.

Appearing fluttering in her usual revealing black qipao, she sits down next to my bed and starts looking at me like a curious cat.

This beautiful girl, who doesn’t hesitate to show off her cute voice and the tone of a construction worker, her white and black steamed bun hair mixed with panda Suin, her breasts the size of her own head, and a feminine body optimized for pregnancy, is Ran. It’s Xiao Mei.

Even with her body her, which would be an absolute penalty for martial arts, she is a martial artist who can be ranked in the ranks at the academy at this point, even including teachers, thanks to her superior lineage and talent, which is one of the best in this novel.

“I heard that Rexton was injured while beating that bastard, didn’t I always tell him to ask me if he wanted to hit me!”
“No, I tried to catch and beat me too, but he pissed me off so much… “
“You did well though! As Bocchanim always said, that Holo child cannot climb unless he is beaten once in a while!”

As Xiao Mei said, she patted me on the shoulder and praised me.

Of course, it was an unbearable pain for Artin’s delicate body his.

If it were n’t for the painkillers, she would have burst into tears, but as he unreservedly took one arm around him, the pain and irritation began to subside at the same time as her voluptuous touch her.

“Still, having to be hospitalized for several days must be very boring. I heard from the young master that my older brother was even suspended from school!”

“Well, as Zorba said, even after an accident like this, two weeks of suspension is considered calm.”

When I first met her, I was very taken aback by Xiao Mei’s lack of distance skinship and girly tone in her. From what she heard from Zorba, since Artin rescued Xiao Mei in her childhood of her, she said that she obeys like this.

In addition, she said that Rexton Wise’s first love for her was Xiao Mei, so in a way, the reason why Artin died in the original work may be seen as Xiao Mei’s karma for her.

“Anyway, you’re welcome, because I had something I wanted to ask you.”

At that, Xiao Mei put on a puzzled expression for a moment, then smiled as if she knew something.

Then he curls her right hand in a circle and starts shaking her lightly up and down.

“Is it okay if I take one step off?”

At those words, I looked at Xiao-Mei with startled eyes.

What the hell is a talkative girl called?

Perhaps conscious of my gaze, Xiao Mei blushed slightly.

“I heard that a man with a lot of energy gets tired after lying in bed for several days.”

It’s not Hitomi’s world view, can it be?

“Who the hell told you that?”
“The Bocchan said he was going to visit the hospital, so he let me know, so it must be true!”

I wondered if it was a bad stain at the academy, but the culprit was the closest.

Of course, since I had the right sexual orientation, I didn’t want to reject the solicitation of a beautiful girl like Xiao Mei. Unfortunately, sexual desire did not arise at this time, when it was difficult to control the body of her due to the weak energy.

“It’s not like that, I’m going to learn martial arts from now on, so I was wondering if you could teach me.”

Xiao Mei, as if taken aback by those words, opened her eyes wide with an aek-sound.

“Are you talking about Artin-hyung, a reclusive loner who does n’t like to move his body?”

I think this guy pretends to be surprised and sells it naturally?

Of course, I’m not the Artin that Xiao Mei originally knew, but it’s always strange to hear her 1-year-old younger brother her call her a reclusive loner.

“Hmm… Strange. The sudden knocking down of Rexton, and the fact that he wants to learn martial arts from me…”

Xiao Mei pondered as if something was wrong with my words, then her eyes narrowed and she turned to me.

“You don’t seem to be the big brother I used to know! Reveal your identity!”

At those words, my heart skipped a beat! There was no such thing as sitting down. In all episodes except the first, Xiao-Mei was the first to notice my change.

“That’s right, I’m actually a demon who contracted to avenge Rexton in exchange for Artin’s body his.”
“I knew it-! What a bad devil! Hurry up and get back to Artin, a reclusive loner!”

However, even if it is a panda beast, should it be called a bear after all? He has a naive side, so he’s a guy who can easily get over it if he’s pranked like this.

Shall we say that it has a different taste than the smart Zorba and other nobles?

I stroked his head to calm him playfully patting him on the shoulder.

“Just lying on the bed and thinking about it, I thought it would be difficult to protect my body with magic without talent. If I learn martial arts from you, I might be able to become stronger, right?”

Xiao Mei nodded her head as if she was right, then patted her chest with an ahem.

“Just trust me! I will make you look like my older brother and be as trustworthy as our family escorts!”
“Yeah, I’ll just trust you, because when I feel better, I want to train in martial arts for the next two weeks of suspension.”
“Two weeks… Two weeks? Even though I was always forced to exercise, Artin hyung gave up after 3 days and was stuck in the corner of the room, jjinta!!”

No, I think that’s a bit harsh. Aren’t you overreacting?

However, if you think about it, Zorba and Xiaomei showed similar reactions when they went out in front in other rounds. Xiao Mei, who is so happy like today, seems like she has never seen her before, but she is.

“Then I don’t have time to be here like this! We need to organize a curriculum so that he can start right away when he gets better!”

Xiao Mei jumped up from her seat as if her motivation her was rising and left her room, waving her hand to prepare for her training.

Maybe it’s because two people visited in a row, but I feel a little tired.

“Since they said it would be fine to leave the hospital in two days… I’ll ask Zorba to get some elixir.”

In reality, a broken rib would require several weeks of hospitalization, but common sense does not work in a fantasy world of healing magic, miracles, and alchemy.

As long as you have the right elixir and potion, a rapid increase in body is not a dream, and then if your potential increases, you will be able to easily pass the first semester of the academy.

“Well, let’s get some rest first!”

As I entrust myself to the soft and fluffy bed, I fall asleep slowly.

I don’t remember much of the previous episode, saying that I was backdooring the demon castle.

Particularly in the second half, since most camps were repeated after an all-nighter, I missed this coziness so much.

Yes, the period in this hospital can be considered as a vacation. On the next return, it would be nice to hang out with Zorba…

The Demon King and the Hero, forget all of that…

Knock Knock

Oh man, I just liked it, who is it?

It’s the beginning of the episode, so not many people know about it. Did anyone else come?

Well it’s good Since I am currently on vacation, I will not be able to visit you any more today.

‘I’ll come back tomorrow if there’s something else…’

It’s time for the visit to end soon, so just pretend to be asleep and I’ll go on my own…

Smart smart

“Oh really! Who are you!!”

I was about to fall asleep again, so I woke up in anger at the knocking sound I heard.

Is this how you feel when your boss calls you to ask about your job after you paid the rent?

Looking at the door with arms crossed to see who came in, it was a truly unexpected person who entered.

“Hey… Is this the hospital room for Artin Ludwig?”

The person who opened the door was an elf, not a human.

He was also the one who fired the magic that broke my ribs.
