The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

87. Organized! Ethan Alliance!

The day after Ethan’s housewarming.

Sepia and Tesha were called by Tia and gathered in the club room.

Tia was waiting for the two of them in the club room with serious eyes.

“what? why did you call What do you have to say?”

Sepia grumbled and entered the club room. Tesha also looked suspicious.

“Sepia and Tesha have a major announcement.”

Even at the mention of a major announcement, Sepia was calm.

“Sepia, do you like Ethan?”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

To that straightforward question, Sepia readily answered. If it was the first semester, Sepia would never have imagined that she would answer like that.

“What about Tesha? Do you like Ethan?”

“yes? Me?”

I’m still confused, but if you ask me whether I like it or not, it’s the former.

“If I had to answer only whether I like it or hate it… , Yes, I like it.”

Ethan was a benefactor who saved Tesha twice. Of course, Tesha felt more than a friend to Ethan.

“I love Ethan.”

Tia spoke as she touched her chest. Both Tesha and Sepia were shocked by the sudden remark.

I never expected that Tia would reveal her feelings in such a way. His confident attitude even made him look cool.

“What, what? suddenly? why do you tell us that Did you eat something wrong yesterday?”

“Uh, uh, Tia. It’s cool, but it’s a bit embarrassing.”

It was an expected reaction.

“Did you two see the ring on Ethan’s left hand yesterday?”

Tia calmly tried to explain why she was doing this.

Sepia also became quite serious at the word ring. I was concerned about it from the first time I saw it.

However, I didn’t have a chance to ask, so I didn’t ask properly.

“It was a ring with the Lynchester family’s seal on it.”

“What is that about? I guess you got it from Professor Sylvia. As a reward for training well.”

“I wish I did too.”

Tia let out a short sigh.

“According to the information I recently obtained, there was a marriage between Ethan and Sylvia.”

“Is that a socialite rumor? There is no credibility.”

Sepia shook her head.

Rumors from the social world were not to be trusted. It was rumors in the social world that circulated mainly about suitable gossip or provocative things.

It was like the lady had an affair with someone. Eight out of ten rumors were unconfirmed.

“Sepia, what if that’s true? And what if Ethan likes Professor Sylvia?”

flinch.

For a moment, Sepia hesitated.

‘No, Ethan likes me. To protect me in the Eiras class… .’

It was Ethan who had even harmed himself. In addition, he believed that he was sleeping and showed his inner feelings.

‘Seriously, why are you so cute… . He looks like an angel.’

Recalling that time, it was as if I could still hear Ethan’s low voice in my ears. That Ethan is marrying Sylvia over him?

‘why? Did I give up because I, a member of the Lognes family, had to marry for convenience anyway?’

My father was diligently searching for a marriage partner. But it hasn’t been confirmed yet.

“Of course, I’m not sure whether Ethan likes Professor Sylvia or not. But maybe Professor Sylvia likes Ethan more than an ordinary student.”

Sepia felt a bit uneasy. If love is possible through mutual understanding, marriage was intertwined with each other’s realistic aspects.

“Ethan was the first and last time Professor Sylvia took a student. And I’ve brought Ethan along as my socialite partner. I even presented a ring with the seal of Lynchester on it.”

Hearing that, it seemed that Sylvia had a crush on Ethan.

“I bet there are five hundred rings with family seals in my house too?”

Sepia shrugged her shoulders as if it was no big deal. There were dozens, if not five hundred, signet rings.

It wouldn’t be strange if he gave one of them.

‘But do you usually give a ring with a seal to a disciple… ?’

It was kind of an odd part.

“What if Ethan and Professor Sylvia are like that?”

“It’s your delusion and misunderstanding.”

“Are you really sure? If Professor Sylvia proposes to Edan, do you think Ethan will refuse?”

Sepia’s eyes twitched.

I couldn’t answer confidently. There was only one thing. Marriage was also a real problem. Right now, she herself was in a position where she had to marry for convenience.

“So what do you want to say?”

“This is not the time for us to fight. We have to work together.”

“You want to join forces?”

It wasn’t a bad suggestion.

“I like Ethan. Now I know my heart.”

However, if he confessed like this, there was a high probability that he would be dumped. So, first of all, Ethan had to like it.

Tia shared her thoughts yesterday.

“Let’s make our ‘Edan alliance’. how about it? How about we stop fighting among ourselves and maintain an alliance with each other so that Ethan likes us?”

“therefore… , What is the ‘Ethan Alliance’ doing?”

Tia’s clear explanation continued.

The three share Ethan’s favorite things, dynamics, behavior, and psychology. Besides that, he helps Edan with both his mind and heart.

And, just in case, while keeping Professor Sylvia in check, she maintains a good relationship with the professor. Lastly, don’t fight each other or be childishly jealous.

“Not a bad suggestion. But I guess I should be first?”

“Sephia seems to keep forgetting that she has to get married of convenience.”

“I know! But I won’t… !”

“If you join, I will help Ethan become a great wizard. Then Sepia wouldn’t have to marry for convenience.”

Sepia thought for a moment. The wizard was a job that made a lot of money, but it was also a job that took a lot of money.

If the only daughter of the Herze Merchant could help Edan, it would definitely be of great help.

“How are you going to help?”

“I plan to donate anonymously.”

“If that’s the case, you’re not thinking of stealing Ethan alone, are you?”

Sepia was still suspicious of Tia.

“It will never happen. Well, let’s do this. We do not confess to Ethan first so that there is no traitor among us. how about it? Sepia, Tesha, would you be satisfied with this?”

Tesha diligently rolled her eyes.

‘Didn’t Ethan like me… ?’

Tesya had deliberately pretended not to know Edan’s feelings because she had prioritized the empire.

‘Could it be that I’ve been mistaken all this time? Or is this all Tia’s misunderstanding?’

No matter how much I thought about it, no answer came. Still, once the alliance was formed, it was good that Sepia and Tia didn’t fight over Edan.

‘Someday I might get help from the Ergé Merchant and the Lognes family, so it’d be nice for the two of them to get along.’

At some point, the master also told Tesha to make his side.

Arthur, Ethan, Tia, Sepia, and Anya were all reliable if they were on his side.

“Then, I will also join the Edan alliance so that you and Edan can work together.”

In any case, a mediator was needed between the two. That was the moment when the three Edan alliance was formed.

The second semester starts tomorrow.

Report cards were received shortly after the vacation began.

My grade is 25th overall in the whole school.

It was not bad, ranking 20th in practical skills and 27th in writing.

The reason my overall score stayed in 25th was simple.

This is because the total grade for the first semester is the sum of the midterm and final exam scores.

For that reason, Reus and Tesha were still holding first and second place in the entire school.

My grades were still ambiguous to call the school district, but my grades were definitely on an upward curve.

And in the first place, I didn’t have much greed for grades.

It’s not like I’m aiming for a scholarship.

The tuition was sufficient even with anonymous donations, rewards from catching mines, and recovery of investment.

by the way.

[Master, so what do you want to test?]

Right now, Rien and I were facing each other in the forest outside Istvan.

After becoming a Chaos Knight, Rien became stronger.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that in the first semester, he became stronger than me, the owner.

“You have to fight me.”

I handed the staff I took out of the shadows to Lien.

Lien nodded once. Hesia looked at Rien and me, her eyes shining with anticipation.

“Do your best. Don’t think that I’ll look after you as your lord.”

“i get it.”

Currently, I was learning the top skill, ‘Super Intuition for Combat’.

Not only that, but the ‘Linchester Swordsmanship ―Improved Type―’, which is evaluated as one of the strongest swordsmanships in the world, has also been raised to level 6.

Personally, I was curious about my current position.

“Dad! Go for it! Riendo fighting!”

With Hessia’s support, we stood facing each other in the clearing. I untied the lead balls from my forearms and ankles one by one.

The lead fell to the floor with a thud. Every time I solve this, it reminds me of fighting battles.

“Rien, release your magic.”

“I will do as you command.”

Red magic power dwelled in Rien’s whole body.

fault!

I kicked off the ground and approached Rien.

My body was moving instinctively. I’m still not sure if this is a move that shows off my super intuition for combat.

Rien skillfully blocked my wooden sword.

In preparation for the sword blocking, I lowered my body and dug into the bottom.

My elbow went to Rien’s armor. At the same time, Lien turned to the side.

Predicting that, he released his magical power and jumped at Rien.

thud!

Body slap combo.

Just like that, I bumped into Rien with my shoulder. I threw lightning magic at the staggering opponent.

bang!

Lightning magic pushed Rien away. As soon as the distance widened, I kicked the ground again.

Linchester Swordsmanship, Type 3 Short Sword.

Blue magic power dwelled in both arms. The sword, which was quickly extended, touched Lien’s waist. If it was a real sword, it would have cut through the armor.

Lien stretched out the stick as if pushing it and deflected my wooden sword. Immediately the rod spun like a windmill.

As I lowered my upper body, this time the kick flew in aiming for my bottom.

Knock!

I caught Rien’s kick as it was.

Then he tackled Rien and knocked him down.

As he fell, he struck the stick he wielded with a wooden sword imbued with magic. As it was, I stepped on the opponent’s right arm. That’s how the right arm was blocked.

My wooden sword was aimed at Lien’s neck.

Just checkmate.

“Oh My God… .”

As if at a loss for words, Rien dazedly admired. For me, it was a puzzle.

“He definitely got stronger. Lord!”

“Are you sure you did your best?”

It was suspicious. Didn’t this guy actually wait for me to get hurt?

“I can swear on the honor of my knight.”

“Is that so… ?”

“Dad! best!”

Hessia’s eyes lit up and she laughed.

“How good are my skills?”

I honestly don’t know.

If I hit mine, can I catch the guy at the top of the hierarchy?

Of course, if you ask like that, Rien has never been with them, so she can’t judge accurately.

The guy who had been thinking for a while got lucky.

“At this level of growth, sooner or later the lord will surpass the master.”
