After I Stopped Sponsoring, the Female Leads Began Obsessing Over Me

18 – You’ve grown up? I can’t admit it.

— Everyone gather!

After lunch break.

A loud echo filled the area around the 2nd training ground.

Magical, Recon, Priest and Knight Faculties.

The arena was quite crowded because one class was drawn from each department. Each class usually has 30 people, so the number of people gathered is about 120 people.

Among all the children, Ian was alone.

‘I’m used to it at this point.’

Where is Danya? I glanced around, but I couldn’t see it, perhaps because of my small stature.

It is solitude that is familiar in many ways.

On the contrary, it makes me feel at ease.

Recently, I found out while wandering the streets a lot, that girls are quite happy even if they don’t approach and talk to them. It seems that Pompong’s notoriety is higher than expected.

They feel happy when they enjoy solitude like this, as if they are in control of their emotions…… It was Ian who was feeling it.

‘f*ck.’

Anyway.

The instructor in charge of combat training appeared at the right time.

“I think everyone is fully aware of combat training. Now half of the semester is over. In the meantime, you must have learned the basics through various theory and practice classes.”

‘… I’m not.’

I was suddenly possessed and now I am like this.

Still, I have learned magic and powers.

In addition, the knowledge of the monster species to be battled. Rather, I felt strongly that it was worth doing.

An instructor in his late 30s continued.

“Therefore, I won’t say much. The reason I summoned you all today is to form a team. The act of forming a team is also important prior to battle.”

Tank, Melee, Marksman, Priest (Healer), Mage, Support, Seeker.

Usually, this is the standard.

However, in the case of a 4-member configuration, it is compressed in this way.

Knight (Tank + Melee), Paladin (Tank + Heal), Mage (Main Deal), Seeker (+ADD).

In a way, this configuration is theoretically more standard because it is divided into different fields.

But here Ian’s role was ambiguous.

To be classified as a wizard, he lacked explosive elemental dealing.

It’s because Pongpong has learned heavy equipment skills rather than burst damage, which is the basic skill of a wizard. The land mage (physical) developed to use it aggressively somehow… As the name suggests, it’s physical damage. Mana is only used to maximize physical power.

Of course, even with physical strength, if you focus on long-distance dealing, you can avoid overlapping positions as much as possible, but in fact, you have to fight close to the level of a fighter.

“To prevent confusion, we have divided it into six groups, so feel free to form a team of four within them. That’s it.”

[ Group 5 Wizards — Lina Roswell, Ain Gran, Gustav Jan, Danya Katznesia, Ian Black Angus ]

Of course, of course, he is classified as a wizard and has to share a team with 20 other children.

It could have been a difficult situation, but the solution was simple.

‘I can control your emotions.’

Visiting from behind with just the spirit winning.

It still takes some time to settle Pongpong’s karma. And now, as long as I’m determined to focus on growth, I’m not going to care about the reactions around me.

‘By the way, Lina… ‘

This time, it’s Lina Roswell, who doesn’t look this way so aggressively.

I met her green eyes at first glance. The fine brow frowns for a moment. But she soon turned her attention to other children.

Looks like he is diligently looking for students from other departments to form a standard team. From Ian’s point of view, I couldn’t be more grateful.

As I watch the children form a team, someone sneaks up next to me.

“Ian, I could be on your team if you wanted.”

Danya.

“You know the official team composition is one knight, one priest, one mage, and one seeker, right?”

“Ah, I know! It’s ridiculous that two wizards are on the same team! You came because you felt sorry for being alone?!”

Danya’s ears and tail drooped as she said that.

The tail that shines in the sunlight shines differently than usual.

“Isn’t your tail different today?”

“What… huh? Huh?”

Danya made a strange noise and hid her tail.

Actually, it was Danya who woke up early this morning and painstakingly shaped her tail. The reason is…

“Dah, I didn’t mean to show you!”

“Of course I do.”

Ian pondered for a moment.

Danya is also a somewhat flawed being for a wizard. Since it lacks mana response, it is actually closer to a long-range attacker using a grass attribute bow.

‘No wait.’

This is a somewhat familiar team composition.

If you play a game like Fanta X Arca, you can’t always have a standard team composition.

On the contrary, honey combinations are bursting out of unexpected places.

Ian opened his mouth to Danya, who was slightly blushing.

“Let’s do it together.”

“…Huh? Huh? Are you going to join me?”

“You said colleague. Last practice session.”

“Ah…”

Danya froze in place.

It was the first time I heard the word colleague after entering the academy. It’s different from Danya’s clan… Because the word camaraderie has become taboo.

“How come you notice that it’s not good?”

She jumped back at Ian’s words.

“No. It’s not that I don’t want to team up with you! No! It’s not that I want to!”

“Tell me calmly.”

“uuu! I wondered if it would be a problem if two wizards were on the same team for no reason! It seems that the composition of the team is misaligned…”

Definitely. It’s good to follow a standardized team composition method when attacking monsters, especially when it’s a difficult opponent.

But Ian shook his head.

“That’s a textbook team composition.”

Originally, textbooks do not contain tips.

The corner of Ian’s mouth went up.

◆

“… Ah! Hello. Long time no see Raphael.”

While talking to her other children, Lina glanced at Ian with a sidelong glance.

As expected, it’s true that I’m worried, but I don’t have any intention of doing the same group this time.

‘I have to make up for my grades at least in training practice.’

Her grades are on fire right now.

You have to build the best team somehow.

Of course, it is true that Ian showed a different side for a while. The teamwork with Danya in the previous search practice was also… It wouldn’t be bad

‘… It’s most likely a coincidence.’

This is what it means to search the forest.

Fortunately, if you search for a place with a lot of mana orbs first, you can sweep them all at once.

But combat training is different.

You will face monsters embodied in mana dolls that are similar to real ones. Knowledge of monsters, experience dealing with monsters, instant judgment, etc…. It’s a story that it’s not a class where you can get good grades just by chance.

— You’re doing it with me… ?

— Of course not. You said colleague.

So, as she watched Danya and her Ian filming some kind of boyish cartoon scene, Lina raised her mouth slightly. She was more confident than just having a bad heart.

‘I can do better than those kids in this class. No. I will definitely do that.’

I know what Ian has shown so far. I mean, he was just chasing after women without any interest in her classes or her own growth. I haven’t tried hard in the meantime, but I can’t suddenly improve my skills, right?

Lina did not trust Ian’s growth in her.

Rather.

“Miss Rina, would you like to join me on the same team?”

“Get out of the way, Elise, because our elites asked for Lina Roswell first.”

Children from various faculties flocked around her.

I’m going to build a team by examining everything among them.

One warrior, one support priest, one mage, and one seeker-gunner.

‘The knights are a little… It’s a pity that there are no kids in good condition.’

The most classic team composition.

Mejai It wasn’t too difficult for Lina Roswell, who boasts of top grades.

◆

“…We’re two wizards, can we fill the rest?”

Lina looked at Ian with concern.

Her Ian shrugged her shoulders.

“I have to take the rest of the kids.”

“…….”

Very good self-objectification ability.

That was her Ian strength.

In fact, Ian and Danya are two of the lowest in Mejai’s self-reflection scores.

A nerd to join this team?

You can be sure that it will never happen.

‘It’s rather suspicious if you come in.’

For example… A pseudo group that will ruin this battle training.

Shall we say Shalamists?

Shalam Bridge. A pseudo-religious group that is one of the Thirteen Evils, the representative music groups of Panta X Arca.

In the game scenario that was revealed right before the possession, it was the Shalam Bridge that blackened Pongpong.

Starting from the combat training episode, we are slowly starting our activities in earnest, so we need to keep a close eye on this side…

“Brother. The composition of this team is unusual, isn’t it?”

Wow, that’s a surprise.

Ian was startled by the sudden voice.

When I turn my head, there is a blond young man who looks good.

“Oh, I’m sorry. hahahaha. I must have said it too suddenly. I couldn’t find a team, so can I come in here?”

Judging by the way they are dressed, they seem to be in the priestly school.

A bright smile that seems to have a philosophical view of everything.

Ian narrowed his forehead.

“As you can see, we are two wizards. Why would you want to join a team like this?”

“Difficulty is also an obstacle that those who walk the path of a priest must overcome.”

From noble mtl dot com

“I’m Ian Black Angus. Don’t you know enough about my reputation?”

Even at that, the priest smiled round and round.

“Brother Ian seems to be having a bit of trouble managing his needs. But don’t worry too much. In the world, everyone has their own desires.”

While he was still talking.

— 5 Groups! Looks like all but one team have been formed! Whoever remains is automatically a team!

At the instructor’s words, Ian let out a sigh.

An impressionable priest who is still making noise. Looking closely, his face is familiar. He seems to know the name.

I didn’t know there would be such a bomb among the remaining humans…

“Don’t be too hard on yourself, and visit the denomination when you have a chance. God’s blessing that we have become a team like this. Isn’t it because you gave us the opportunity to share good words with you?”

“Thank you, priest.”

Ian also smiled at her and lowered her head.

But that was not the case.

‘That’s crazy.’

He’ll do that too, kid.

Because he’s a villain.
