Episode 42 – I’ve never met someone like you

“I’m sorry, Pathos. You were in a lot of trouble because I reacted a little emotionally, right? “I sincerely apologize for that.”

After the minor incident that occurred behind the kitchen was resolved successfully thanks to the president, Raina was once again apologizing to me.

Before the president dragged him somewhere, he definitely seemed like he had some problem, but after he reappeared with the president, he seemed to have changed.

What should she say about her past?

Previously, it seemed like a proud cat that was a bit nervous but cared about its owner, but after returning from a trip with the president, it looked like a puppy that was caught doing something wrong and only wanted its owner’s forgiveness.

It may seem like the expressions and vocabulary are a bit cheap, but the only animals I can mainly see in real life are dogs and cats, so I just used those as examples.

“Ho, did you get hurt when I grabbed you and shook you earlier? “You’re feeling fine right now, right?”

Anyway, now she was looking at me with a very sorry expression.

I kept touching my body to check if there was any pain, but something felt a bit strange.

“I’m not in any pain, but isn’t Miss Reina in pain somewhere?”

“Yes?”

I felt sorry for Raina as she suddenly changed her behavior and tone of voice.

Did I hit Raina’s head too hard? Because it made me think about it.

They say that when a person gets a big blow to her head, she changes, and it seems like Raina was just one of those cases.

“Oh, no! I’m OK! “There’s nothing wrong with me, so you don’t have to worry!”

Looking at Raina with worried eyes, she started waving her hands and trying to convince herself that she was okay.

No, what really happened? President, what on earth were you talking about with her?

“Did the President, by any chance, threaten Ms. Raina? Or, what on earth happened there?”

I was curious to know what her rector had to say to Raina, so she asked her question.

“Well, that’s it… ….”

Raina looked around and confirmed a couple of times that no one was there except me before she finally opened her mouth.

I was able to hear the story from her mouth about the time when two people disappeared somewhere for a while.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

When she arrived at the back of the galley, Regina overheard the conversation between Rayna and Pathos, and it occurred to her that she would have to step forward.

‘I can’t.’

She was reluctant to intervene in what happened between the two, but she was concerned that if she left it alone, she would become pathos, an obvious victim, and suffer secondary damage.

So, Regina took Raina and teleported to the foot of a low mountain some distance away from her academy.

Glessius Academy has powerful magic shields and barriers, but with the curse of the Elixir of Rejuvenation gone, Regina has become a stronger wizard than before, so breaking through these was not difficult.

In the past, it would have taken an entire day, but now she was able to create a small passage through the shield and barrier in just a few seconds and succeeded in teleporting Raina through it.

“W-Where is this place?”

“Here, you and I can talk without being interrupted by anyone. “Isn’t that right?”

While Reina was surprised to see the sudden change in her surroundings, Regina slowly walked towards Reina.

“Miss Raina. “What did I ask Miss Raina to do?”

“Second, President?”

Raina was frightened when she saw the president talking to her in a slow but firm tone.

She had many opportunities to meet the so-called ‘high people’ who decide the big and small affairs of the country at banquets and other events.

Also, since she was Reina, who had observed several martial arts tournaments along with her father, Duke El Dinar, she had thought that her leader would be able to adapt to her radiant momentum.

But now, the momentum radiating from Regina as she slowly walked towards her was an intensity that she had never seen in any of the countless strong people on the continent she had seen.

“I spoke clearly. I told them to help Pathos adapt well to life at the academy and to help Pathos become friends with other students attending the academy. “Isn’t that right?”

“Yes, that’s right!”

Raina, who was standing in front of Regina, was currently answering her questions with her discipline at its peak.

“Yes. I definitely asked Ms. Raina to do that. But what is this situation that has happened now? “Is this what I asked Miss Raina?”

Regina asked Rayna her question in her soft voice, but for a moment her mood changed and she began to push her hard.

“Oh, no!”

“If you thought I didn’t know anything just because I was sitting quietly in the president’s office, it would be a huge mistake in calculation. Student Reina Eldinar.”

Regina was looking at her Rayna with disapproval in her eyes.

This was a huge shock to Raina, who had always been treated well as a flower in her greenhouse.

‘What, what? ‘Why is the president looking at me like that?’

“Student Reina Eldinar. “I don’t understand why you used physical force against Mr. Pathos ‘first’.”

“Well, that’s…” ….”

Reina was unable to say anything to President Regina’s questions.

As she said, wasn’t she the one who first used physical force on Pathos?

“With the Academy in mind, Pathos rushed to the galley and returned it to normal, hoping to restore the student cafeteria as quickly as possible. By the way, what did student Reina do? “Didn’t she just grab him and shake him because she couldn’t believe what he was capable of?”

“Yes, that’s right. I was wrong…… “

Reina admitted her mistake in response to President Regina’s words.

“Of course, I know that Reina has a secret that she cannot tell others.”

“Yes?”

“Reina student. As the president of Glessius Academy, I know the unique characteristics of every student. “There’s no way I wouldn’t know about the ‘curse’ that student Reina has.”

Regina walked up to Raina and stroked her head.

She said that Raina had a ‘curse’.

“The curse you had was the curse of ‘disbelief.’ It was also a curse that was only activated on ‘ability users’. “This is a terrible curse that continues to deny the ability user the ability to activate, even until the ability user denies the use of his or her ability.”

The curse that lay on Rayna was a curse that made users not trust and distrust their abilities when they used them.

This was a curse that her father, Duke Eldinar, acquired while fighting a demon summoned by devil worshipers, and was passed on to his daughter, Reyna.

It was impossible to remove the devil’s curse without God’s blessing, and the only way to alleviate the symptoms of the curse was through a priest’s blessing.

Duke Eldinar was a genius in swordsmanship who reached the level of a sword master, so he was able to withstand the curse with his mental strength, but the problem was his daughter, Rayna.

When the person involved in the devil’s curse has children, the curse is passed on to one of the children they gave birth to, and it was Rayna who took Duke Eldinar’s curse.

The only way to stop the curse from being passed down is for the person with the curse to commit suicide.

When Duke Eldinar learned that his youngest daughter had taken his curse, he sent her to the Academy of Glesius to protect his daughter.

At least there was a priest always present here, so even if Rayna’s curse was activated, it could be calmed down quickly.

For her, the devil’s curse was a stigma and a yoke that she had to carry for the rest of her life.

“Now, wait a minute? Are you saying it was a curse? “What does that mean?”

However, Raina discovered something unusual about Regina in her words.

That is, her content about her own curse became ‘past tense’ rather than present continuous.

“How did I explain Pathos-kun’s abilities?”

“Yes, the ability to fix everything…… “Seo, really?”

Regina nodded her head as Rayna gave her a realization look.

“That’s right. Mr. Pathos swung his hammer at Ms. Raina’s head, and his ability was activated, causing the curse on Ms. Raina’s body to completely disappear.”

Even though Raina heard Regina’s words, she couldn’t believe that the curse on her body had completely disappeared.

So Regina demonstrated her ability ‘Area Expansion’ in front of Rayna’s eyes, and Rayna realized that her curse on her own body had finally disappeared.

“Miss Raina. Now that you know what to do when you get back, Miss Raina?”

“Do you mean to tell Mr. Pathos about my mistakes and ask for his forgiveness?”

Regina just smiled at Rayna’s words and nodded her head.

“Okay then, shall we head back?”

“Now, wait a minute, President! “I’m not mentally ready yet!”

“It’s late~,”

Regina used teleportation again even though Reyna was not ready yet, and the two returned to Glessius Academy.

This was the inside story of what happened when Reina and President Regina left Glessius Academy for a while.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

“It’s so unexpected.”

This was the conclusion I came to after listening to Raina’s explanation.

No, the person the president assigned to me was someone who had a curse that made them distrust the abilities of ability users?

What if her president thought I would use her abilities on her Reina and kept her by my side in the name of helping me adapt to her academy?

‘This is how we solve it? ‘After all, not just anyone can be the president.’

Oh, of course, I plan to receive compensation for curing the curse.

My motto is that if there is something I am best at, I must get paid to do it.

“Thank you so much. Thanks to Pathos, the curse that was bothering me has disappeared. How should I repay this favor? ….”

“Of course, you have to pay the price, right? So, what do you plan on giving me in return for curing the curse?”

I proudly asked Raina for compensation for curing her curse.

“For detailed compensation, you will have to go to the family and ask your father, but if you are not satisfied with the compensation offered by your father… ….”

What is it? As Reina was telling her story, she suddenly began to look serious.

“Hey, me too! “I’m not good enough, but I’ll give you some compensation!”

Uh… to? What did I hear wrong?

“What?”

“If you don’t like the reward your father offered, you can have me!”

Reina’s bombshell statement that she would give herself as compensation.

And there was only one thing I could say to her bombshell statement.

“Can’t you just give me money?”

“Yes?”

“You only receive compensation for using your abilities in goods or money.”

I am not a pervert or trash who desires women’s bodies in return for using my abilities.

“Hey, wait a minute…” ….”

“I believe they will contact the family and prepare appropriate compensation, so I will leave now. “I’ll see you later.”

I told Raina I would see you later and quickly ran away.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

Reina was looking in vain at the place where Pathos had left.

“Ha, hahahaha… ….”

Reina was dumbfounded.

The person who treated him like this, a member of the duke’s family…… Because he was the first.

“This is the first time something like this has happened to me.”

In her heart, an unknown flame began to burn within her.

“I will definitely make it mine.”

In Raina’s eyes, as she looked at the place where pathos had left, a sticky obsession was slowly forming.
