A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 563
563 – What kind of medicine did you take (3)
For a moment, a suspicion arose that Luna might be possessed, but it passed.
Because of her simple way of thinking, there was a very high probability that she had just roughly brought something together.
Besides, the name itself wasn’t bad. It’s a name that sounds like it would come out of some space war.
‘But wasn’t that also a type of drug?’
I know that even stamina is consumed. If there is no medic nearby, life will be limited.
Of course, it will be useful in extreme situations. Moreover, what will be used in this training is a kind of prototype.
You will be taking a much weaker dose of the drug than you will use later. If you experience any side effects here, you will have to change it again.
“Do you really have to write something like that? I feel uncomfortable.”
“I only take it in times of crisis. There are many demons stronger than me, not just you.”
“That’s true.”
Luna didn’t think much of it either. She had already fought many strong people.
In particular, I have often felt the proverb that when whales fight, shrimps’ backs get broken. This was the case in every major episode.
Those episodes were able to endure because there was a friendly strongman or transcendent being like in the story of Reijina.
However, there is a high probability that they will not be able to help with the incidents and accidents that will occur in the future. For now, Lize is busy with herself.
As for the story… it’s hard to tell where it’ll go, so it’s better to exclude it if possible. That’s more comforting.
“Are you thinking of taking it too?”
“What if you think it’s dangerous?”
“If you think you’re in danger, there are mostly only purple ones?”
“··· ···”
“If not that, then it’s the case of the saint or the president.”
This kid uses facts in a cowardly way. But she has a point.
Up until now, the people who were ‘definitely’ stronger than me were mostly men of the same color or higher.
Even Hector, who was positioned at the top of the blue, was no match for me.
So unless I transcend color, my chances of defeating them are slim, even with the help of drugs.
“It’s for you, not me.”
“me?”
“You’re weak.”
“··· ···”
So I also cowardly fought with facts and truth. Luna pouted her lips for a moment, feeling offended by my violence of facts.
Luna must be the most worried about me. Unlike me, there are many people stronger than her.
In particular, as the main character of Soul World, she is destined to be deeply involved in the story.
I’m having a hard time now, but I’m destined to have a harder time in the future, so I need to do something like this.
“Hmm~ It feels weird to say it’s for you. Are you two really not related?”
Was our conversation so suspicious? Ellie asked with a big smile on her face.
Luna looked at me with a puzzled expression at that question. I was the same.
Even though we are companions walking the same path, we are definitely not that kind of relationship. That is for sure.
“at all?”
“No?”
“Really? That’s interesting. Even though the two bicker, they seem to get along well.”
Ellie tilted her head in question at our firm denial.
It seems that way because we’ve exchanged opinions so many times so far. However, I have no romantic feelings for Luna at all.
Objectively speaking, she was beautiful, but I didn’t feel particularly attracted to her. Maybe it was because her breasts were small.
“I think you’re being very rude.”
“How did you know?”
“Now there’s no denying it.”
Moreover, because of his unique way of speaking, a way of speaking that seemed to capture the chaos as it was, I didn’t feel that kind of emotion at all.
What should I say? It feels like I’m talking directly to Chaos. It’s to the point where I even feel a strange sense of rejection.
[Faith declines.]
Don’t be sad about that. It’s not that I hate Chaos.
[Faith rises!]
I like it. I chuckled as I saw the message printed out before my eyes.
“What are you two looking at?”
Then, Ellie’s voice came into my ears. I heard those words and looked at Ellie.
Her golden eyes were filled with questions.
“what?”
“The two of them suddenly raised their heads. I thought there were bugs.”
“······?”
Hearing that, I looked at Luna without realizing it. Luna also seemed to be curious and met my gaze.
My face was reflected like a mirror in Luna’s eyes, which were shining especially blue. Thanks to that, I could see my expression clearly?
No way? That expression. And Luna was the same.
‘I knew he could see the system······’
I wonder if even the message of chaos is visible. It’s a bit surprising.
Well, judging by the way he speaks, it wouldn’t have been strange if he had been chosen by Chaos at any time.
Of course, Luna had no idea that I could see the system.
‘There’s no use talking about it.’
So I decided to ignore it. Luna also turned her head, as if she had similar thoughts.
What’s needed in this situation is a change of subject. I asked Ellie.
“When can I receive it? Can you start making it right away?”
“It won’t be difficult, since it only takes a little bit of work on the stimulant. About 3 hours in a personal lab?”
“Huh? Ellie also had a personal study room?”
“Huh? Didn’t I tell you this?”
I had no idea about this. It wasn’t a workshop, it was a personal research lab.
When I listened to Ellie’s explanation, she said that it was a research lab that the professor had personally set up. In fact, she was practically the same as the professor.
Even though I don’t know who he is, I felt like the professor was a really good person. Seeing him invest so reliably like me.
‘I guess we’ll have to meet separately later.’
According to Ellie, she is a kind grandmother. Judging from how well she raised Ellie, she must be very capable.
Considering that he even set up a research lab because he had nothing to teach, there is a high probability that he is an excellent educator.
-Knock knock knock
[Is there anyone inside?]
While we were talking amongst ourselves, someone came in. It was Kara.
I heard you came to train or something. I guess you must have instinctively guessed that you would be here since it was the weekend.
“What? A stimulant?”
“Yeah. I thought I might need it later.”
“It’s not bad, but······”
And I explained the medicine to Kara too. She wasn’t negative because she had been through a very special experience, war.
Rather, he said he prefers to use stimulants if they can reduce the side effects, but he also said that taking them in excessive amounts is prohibited.
“The original medicine always becomes toxic when used excessively. And in the case of stimulants, they are highly addictive.”
“Is it that bad?”
“If you were me, would you be able to resist the temptation of a potion that would make you stronger in an instant? It would probably be difficult. Well, since it’s made by Ellie, it shouldn’t be a problem.”
Then he went through an anecdote that he had experienced. As you know, Tatar is a nation that was founded through tribal warfare.
Until then, stimulants had been taken in rather ‘barbaric’ ways, the most representative of which was goat urine.
I don’t know who tried it first, but it is said that drinking goat urine can act as a stimulant. Moreover, it can even relieve pain.
“It is also because of this that the perception that our people are somewhat barbaric and violent has developed.”
“What does it taste like?”
“Why do you say that?”
“I was wondering how you drink that.”
Luna’s beak, which cannot be missed here. Now, I just let it be.
After that, they talked about this and that, and it ended with Lord returning. Pidgeontu was standing next to Lord.
As time passed, Pidgeontu began to show off his majestic appearance. Now, he could not even pass through the door.
So much so that he had to fly over the roof and land in the backyard. The fur was clean, as if the Lord had taken good care of it.
“By the way, what kind of paper is Pidgeontu? The more I look at it, the more it looks like a bird of prey.”
“If we look at it only by species, it is said to be closer to a falcon.”
Somehow, he was really cute when he was a puppy, but he gradually became more manly. Even so, he’s just a burden to me.
Lord really liked Pidgeontu so much that he even went as far as to get some food for Pidgeontu and give it to him.
I heard that he sometimes goes into the forest to find food, but he strictly warns that he will not go into the squirrel forest.
‘Then all the traces from that time?’
A large feather was found in the area I manage before, and it appears that it was all Pidgeontu.
The problem is the slaughtered beast. Judging from the marks of the sword, it was probably killed by Lord.
It was actually a semi-publicized Pidgeon, so it would be okay. You can’t keep such a big guy hidden all the time.
“Hmm. So you’re developing a stimulant?”
“Yes. Because there will be a lot of dangerous things in the future.”
“Not bad. You always have to expect the worst in these things.”
The story about stimulants was also agreed upon by Lord. It seems that he has had more near-death experiences than most people in his life.
Especially when fighting against the snow, he must have felt the need for strength so desperately. Thanks to that, he was able to obtain permission easily.
“I’ll tell the professors in advance. So that there won’t be any problems if they get caught.”
“Is that okay?”
“I’m the president. If you have any complaints, just say so.”
He also used his power humbly. I expressed my gratitude inwardly.
So, after all the process was completed, the next morning came and we gathered again at Lord’s residence.
Within a day, Ellie’s genius was unleashed and she created a prototype.
“Okay. Just eat this. Try it.”
The medicine Ellie made looked like a pill. A white pill the size of a pea.
Luna was the first to test its performance.
“No. Why should I go first?”
“That’s because Shivar has a constitution that doesn’t respond well to medicine.”
Ellie’s words were right. This ‘weak poison resistance’ was not only resistant to poison, but also to medicine.
So, unless they’re a really bad guy, it won’t work. So what happened to Kara?
“I’m fine. I have similar abilities even without the stimulant anyway.”
“Similar abilities?”
“There’s something about having lightning all over your body. That alone is enough. Or you can pray to Gulag too.”
“Ugh······”
In the end, Luna had no choice but to demonstrate. Ellie told her not to worry, and that there was an antidote, too.
We then went out to the back yard. Luna looked at the pill in her hand with a disgusted expression and put it in her mouth.
-Gulp
I think the sound of swallowing something was particularly loud. Now I guess I just have to wait quietly.
It takes time for the medicine to take effect, so just wait a little bit······
“······Hehe.”
“?”
······But suddenly Luna laughed.
Of course, I, and others also showed a curious reaction.
“Hehehehe. Hehehe.”
“······Why is he like that?”
“Well, well?”
Luna started laughing like a crazy person. What on earth did you give her?
“I, I don’t know. The laughter just······ heheheehe. It keeps coming out······ hehe. What?”
“Do you feel stronger or something?”
“That too, hehe. I can feel it. Hehe.”
“··· ···”
When a rather ominous reaction erupted.
“This is why we need clinical trials. Okay, everyone knows that?”
“······Isn’t that too shameless?”
“It’s an unavoidable problem.”
Ellie made a remark that was no less chaotic.
“Hehehehehe.”
If you fight in that state, you’ll be like a real berserker.
