Chapter 174 The Commotion
No."
"What?"
The moment the young man got this blunt answer with the girl ignoring him, suddenly, a burst of laughter erupted from his back.
"AHAHAHAA! I knew he wouldn't be able to do that."
It was a boy with green hair that was laughing very hard.
"Did you think the Empire's girls would be that easy for you to seduce? It was a pity."
Though the red-haired boy behind him had a more serious expression, he was also smiling slightly.
"You lost the bet, Connor. Give me the knife you bought here."
The green-haired one on the front said while signaling with hands.
However, the person on the subject had a slightly different opinion when it came to this matter.
Because he had an angry expression on his face that was bright red like a tomato.
"You bitch!"
Turning back to see the girl whom he called, the response he got was a slender but cold back.
"HA!"
The girl was ignoring him.
Ignoring the guy who was the son of the Count.
The heir of a county….
The guy who got everything in his life he wanted.
The guy who slept with the girls that were willing to become his partner all around….
He was such a 'sigma' guy.
And that boy lost his cool….
Because he was ignored just once.
Because he always got what he wanted, he didn't know the feeling of loss…
Because he was always in the center of attention wherever he went.
"Come here!"
And that boy tried the grab the girl that was walking away.
It was a sudden decision.
A sudden decision which ruined his first day of staying, maybe the career he would be able to build in the future.
/GRAB/
Just as his hand touched the shoulder of the girl, his eyes met with another.
Bright red eyes that were looking deep into his mind.
Red eyes are like a demon.
At that moment, suddenly, a feeling of suffocation enveloped his heart.
It was just a moment, but it felt like he felt the death at that time.
'What was that?'
That was what he thought.
'I was scared? No way….'
Calming his agitated heart, he ignored those red eyes and turned his attention to the girl in front of him.
A girl who was looking at him with dark eyes.
Those eyes that mesmerized him with their bright grey color were now spreading pure fear in his heart.
And that girl immediately moved into action.
/SWOOSH/
With his hand being grabbed, he felt the world was spinning.
Then the following was a pain of his hands being crushed….
*****
"AAAAAAAH!"
The scream of agony…..
With a voice of a young man….
In front of us, there was a guy whose hands were broken, wriggling on the ground.
"What! How dare you!"
And behind us, two boys were shouting while looking at the guy who was lying on the ground.
The reason why these happening was pretty simple.
Because after Lirienne answered with a simple 'no', the boy didn't know his place and tried to force her to come with him.
Which, in the end, made her annoyed.
Following that was just a simple hand grab and smash.
Because, right now, Lirienne is no longer a girl who needs protection from me.
She is a fierce tiger who can protect herself.
A tiger who polished her skills on her own with her own actions.
And that girl was now looking at the boy with dark eyes.
"Okay, okay… Calm down Lirienne…."
With my hands touching her on her shoulder, I said.
And the moment my hand touched her shoulder, the silver aura that was enveloping her disappeared, only leaving a smile on her face.
"Un…."
After that, I turned my head to the boys that were approaching us with their fists raised.
"Stop."
With my eyes locked with theirs, I said while activating my trait [Tyrant's Aura].
Which made pressure descend on their bodies.
"Kurhk-"
The one in the front had shiny green hair, and the one behind him had fiery red hair.
With their knees touching the ground, they couldn't even withstand the pressure I was emitting.
'A bunch of nobodies who think they can enter the academy with their puny skills.'
Thinking that, I approached the boys.
Around this time, people had already started directing their attention to the place we were in, so I couldn't do anything radical.
At least in front of all those people.
Therefore, the only thing I could do was to destroy their minds.
/GRAB/
Grabbing the one whose hands were smashed from his hair, I turned his head back with his neck bending 90 degrees in reverse.
"Now. Look at my eyes."
"Hick!"
"Do you know why you are in this position right now?"
"…."
"Because you touched something you should not have. And do you know what happens to those who touch something mine?"
"…."
/FLICK/
With my hands charged with lightning, I flicked my hand.
/CRACKLE/
Sending a small lightning mana into his pain receptors, I gave him the most intense pain he had felt in his whole life, which made him scream from the depths of his heart.
'AAAAAAAAH!'
Though, those screams would never reach others' ears because his vocal cords were no longer working….
"They get burned in the midst of endless anguish…. A fate befitting for a dog like you who can't hold his desires."
/THUD/
And then, leaving the boy who was lying on the ground lifelessly, I stood up.
"Let's go."
Then, started walking up to the inn where I was staying with Lirienne.
'In the end, that special event triggered. Will other events will also trigger as well?'
Though, in my mind, there were a lot of things going on.
'If all the events that were in the game will trigger like this, then maybe I can use this to my advantage.'
Yes.
This event that right happened before our eyes was an event that happened in the game.
If you want to train before entering the academy and go to this training studio with a heroine.
It was an event to raise the favorability of the heroine by 'asserting dominance.'
Though for this case, it was my favorability being raised since she dealt with it on her own….
And to explain how things turned out to be like this, we need to look at the things that happened in the past months….
