I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling

10 – Like boiled water

“hahahaha! Good luck with this test.”

“……Yes.”

“…Please take good care of the beautiful girl over there as well.”

“Please take good care of me~”

Girard gave a friendly smile and asked Duka and Nice to shake hands.

Because he has a very likeable appearance, a single smile, and a gentlemanly attitude.

A normal person would be a likable young man.

…… Seeing him like that, I can’t even imagine being a troll.

“Ah!”

I didn’t approach, but I was observing from a little distance.

Perhaps he noticed that I was away, Girard finished talking lightly with Deuka and Nice.

Soon, he came up to me and asked for a handshake.

“Please take good care of me again. So? Seonwoo Lee?”

“You can call me Sunwoo.”

Contrary to my complicated inner feelings, I held Girard’s hand without showing anything special.

But the closer you get, the more difficult it is to endure because of the stench from Girard’s body.

Smells like boiled water from a sewer.

This wasn’t actually a smell, it was a warning from the

Sense of smell in the form of a smell.

Isn’t there a hint of dislike on my face?

As if Girard didn’t feel anything, he naturally continued his conversation with me.

At that time. As if Girard was chatting, he asked me casually.

“Ahahahaha! Call me Girard too… Can I ask you something?”

“What is it?”

“I’m ashamed of my lack of knowledge… But, Seonwoo, which family in the east continent are you from?”

Girard said with a smile.

After I copied it. The information collected by [Space (A-)] That is always active is different.

Girard was watching me secretly, narrowing his eyes.

First of all, Girard’s gaze is on my hair and eyes.

Est Saga’s prestigious families are the first to look at them because they have some inherited appearance characteristics.

Then the clothes.

My clothes weren’t old, but they were generally the kind of clothes that commoners of Est continent like to wear.

At this point, the feelings of disregard and disgust began to creep in Girard’s eyes.

For the final blow, the old longsword at my waist.

Girard’s eyes completely cooled when he saw the long sword with chipped edges and rust.

In the entrance examination of Valhalla, the best academy on the continent.

You must think that I am poor enough to use such a low-quality weapon.

If you were so destitute, you would have naturally thought that you were not even capable commoners, despite being nobles.

…… Nice and Ducca aren’t fooled by appearances, and seem to have noticed my skills to some extent.

Girard doesn’t seem to have that kind of discernment.

“…I’m not a noble, so I don’t really have a clan.”

“Ah, ahahahaha. I see… Ah! Seonwoo-san, how far did you go in the first test? I heard that Mr. Nis went to the 4th level, and Mr. Deuka went to the 6th level. I’m up to the 4th level for now. .”

“……I was able to properly awake until level 2, but at level 3…”

“…Ah! It’s okay. There’s no need to be shy. This test is a team competition, so let’s work hard together.”

I tried to say I passed by breaking the summoning orb in step 3.

Girard cut me off midway and pretended to comfort me.

And then, subtly, he stopped talking to me.

I turned around and walked in the direction the two of them were.

…… When I turned around for the last time, what was in my eyes was indifference and a low sense of superiority as if looking at an incompetent person.

And it was the aversion to being a commoner.

I think Girard is hiding it, but he couldn’t hide it in front of my senses and gifts.

…… I expected this. Actually, you get more pissed off than you think.

From noble mtl dot com

I hope you do something troll soon.

I’ll throw the harpoon away…….

“…Seonwoo…Are you okay?”

In the car I was planning on swallowing my anger and how to crush it inside.

I heard Nice’s worried voice from behind.

Nice, who had good observational powers, must have noticed Girard’s hidden feelings to some extent.

And also that I noticed the emotion.

“It’s okay, just show it with your skills”

“…Nya-nyang ♪ I’m glad nya-nyang ♪”

Nice’s eyes folded neatly and drew a half moon.

She looks playful, but she is essentially a kind girl.

By the way, looking at Girard’s emotions, I’m guessing how that guy will become a troll.

When I tried to secretly spill that guess to Nice, the central crystal emitted light.

Paaah!

The eyes of four people gather in a crystal.

Crunch Square-

Letters are engraved on the surface of the crystal that emits light.

The function Naturally interpreted the text.

[Start exam 2nd exam]

[The contents of the exam are as follows]

[1. The condition for passing the test is to protect the crystal from the waves of monsters.]

[2. The monster wave has a total of 5 stages, and the higher the stage, the higher the number and level of monsters.]

[3. The monsters are East Gate, West Gate, South Gate, and North Gate. Appears in a total of 4 directions.]

[4. The level of the wave rises every 30 minutes.]

[5. If the crystal is destroyed, you will be immediately eliminated from the test.]

[6. There are hidden passage conditions.]

The rules of the second test are engraved on the crystal.

The rules for the second test appeared, and the four of us, including myself, decided to gather together and plan a strategy.

First of all, I was going to talk about the easy strategy from the strategy guide……

“Once…”

“First of all, the three of us… No, let’s block each gate with four people. Then, let’s go help the one who finished all of them first.”

“……”

“…Nya”

Girard deliberately cut me off and told me his strategy.

…… More than that, I don’t think this guy even counted me as a number of people.

Duka’s temples twitched, and Nice’s eyes narrowed.

But Girard, the idiot didn’t notice and continued talking.

…… This guy Where did you leave your eyes? Don’t you feel this unpleasant atmosphere at all?

“……So!……If it turns out like this,……so……!”

But as if I wasn’t a troll for no reason, I couldn’t even feel the discomfort of the three of us.

He just spit out the strategy he had in mind.

“Whew! Then, everyone. You agree before production, right?”

He must have been satisfied with the strategy he had in mind, so Girard asked for our consent while wiping away sweat.

…… I added this and that, needlessly. The conclusion was a story of blocking each person in one direction.

I was going to suggest doing it that way too, when I was just about to nod.

Girard said “Ah!” He added.

“If you feel that it is too much for you, please let me know right away. I will go to help right away.”

Even as he said that, Girard’s eyes were fixed on me.

I’m sure you think I can’t stand it.

“…….”

“…….”

Dukawa and Nis asked if they were okay with their eyes.

If I said no, I would criticize Girard right away. Even if I didn’t have a , I could tell.

A glance-

I wink at them, saying I’m fine. Said to Girard.

“…Let’s stick to your plan for now? So, which side should each of us take?”

“…I’m in charge of the South Gate.”

“So, am I an alumni?”

“I’m in charge of the north.”

“Then, I’m the preface. Since we don’t know when it will start, shall we move on right away?”

Duka stepped forward to take charge of the South Gate first. Subsequently, Nice said he would take charge of the alumni gate and Girard would take the north gate.

I took the foreword naturally.

Since we don’t know when it will start, we decided to move to our respective areas.

As I was about to move while checking my equipment, Girard spoke to me.

“Seonwoo, if you’re having a hard time, don’t be fooled and ask for help right away.”

On the surface, he said that he was worried about me, but….

This guy isn’t worried about me, just in case, he’s afraid he’ll fail the test.

Rather, according to my senses, he is the weakest of the four of us.

…… Shall we scrape it once?

“If you’re having a hard time, call Girard right away. I’ll help you.”

“……!”

Pajik-

When I replied to Girard by telling him not to act like a guest, veins formed in Girard’s temples.

Looks like he’s pissed off at being ignored by the commoners he used to ignore.

Duka and Nice are still close, so he can’t take off his friendly face.

Pudeuk-

Girard gnashed his teeth quietly and turned and walked towards the north gate.

I watched the situation, stopped Nice, who was about to go to the east gate, and asked a favor.

“…Seonwoo, why are you like that?”

” ……Hmm? Eh, I’ll get to know it first.”

Nice listened to my request. Perhaps there was something that bothered him, he accepted my request and walked towards the alumni gate.

‘…… Ego. Nice asked, so even if Girard behaves as expected, he won’t fail the second exam.’

Trumbling-

I also walked to the west gate I was assigned.

“…What is this?”

After arriving at the west gate, I took a closer look, but I was dumbfounded.

The castle gate is about 3 meters high.

…… It was because it was so thin that I wondered if it was made of wooden planks.

Tuk Tuk-

Bye-!

To test the strength, I tapped it lightly as if knocking.

‘There was a hole…… ?’

At this level, the goblins will be split apart with two or three blows with an axe.

Fortunately, the castle wall is made of logs, so it may have some protection.

A single fireball from a goblin shaman will bring you down.

In this case, it would be better to go outside the walls and intercept them on the main road.

Thinking about this, I looked at the other team members.

As if Duka and Nyx thought the same, they opened the castle gate and went outside.

A glance

I turned my gaze to Girard.

Girard looked at the two and seemed to realize it only now. It seemed that he was taking quick action.

…… Why is he so ugly, that guy?

“…Wow!”

Tak!

By strengthening my legs, I jumped over the 3-meter-high wall and landed on the other side.

At that time, at the end of the six-lane road, I felt a

Golden sense of a group of goblins approaching.

‘… Then, let’s go!’

I headed towards the group, grabbed my sword strongly and ran out.
