22 – Dependent on Buffs

Gran gathered his crew.

He looked around at the faces of the members and opened his mouth.

“Now, I will not use the buff.”

The crew nodded silently.

“Last time was good, but…. I was afraid of something. I thought it might depend on a buff….”

Li Ke carefully opened her mouth.

Cleo de, who was next to her, strongly sympathized with Li-ae’s words.

“Me too! The bowstring didn’t pull the next day? No, what Even pulling the bowstring was troublesome because I couldn’t pull it with the sense I had then.”

“Is that so…. Perhaps the buff has become poison to you.”

“No, that is not…” . Still, I thought that if I became stronger, I could become like this. I feel like I’ve become more confident.”

“Lee Ae is the same as I am.”

Cleod said.

Gran looked at Nathan.

“What do you think, Nathan?”

“… Uh? I just…. I have similar thoughts with them. I felt good because I got a good score, but something felt empty. And your words kept coming to mind.”

“If I were to say… ?”

“A proof without substance is meaningless. I won first place, but I didn’t feel very good.”

Gran laughed heartily. Then she patted Nathan on the back.

“You have become more mature. You’re right. That’s a good mindset. You learn fast. It’s nice to see.”

Hearing the compliment from Gran, Nathan scratched his cheek while blushing. He hesitated, then opened his mouth in a low voice.

“Sorry….”

“Heh heh, could it be because the boy’s voice crawled in like that? I wonder what you’re sorry about.”

“Ah, yes…. I thought I was a bit conceited….”

“Humility is also a virtue of a man. Glad you found humility.”

Gran’s gaze turned to Echina, who was next to Nathan. Her eyes were trembling.

“What do you think, Echina-sama?”

The smile disappeared from Gran’s face as he asked the question.

Echina’s pupils moved around, unable to catch her direction.

She couldn’t understand. She can get good grades just by using the buff.

Her movements become more diverse, and she can use skills she hadn’t been able to use, so I thought it would be helpful for her growth.

She was last told that there was no detriment to the Priest’s buff. It had many advantages. She didn’t understand that she dared to exclude powers that could be used.

She thought it would be more efficient to wear buffs even during practice.

“I think it would be better to use….”

“Hmm…. Okay. May I ask why?”

“No, I can get good grades…. I thought it would be good for practice as my physical abilities also improved.”

Echina looked into Gran’s eyes and said.

She wanted to ask for a buff right now. The power of the buff was so great.

Her stamina has more than doubled than usual, and the golem’s movements were expected as if looking into the future.

How is your posture?

Normally, even standing with a sword would make her whole body numb.

On that day, even though I was holding a real sword, it felt lighter than a wooden sword. The movement was as smooth as flowing water. There was no muscle pain that usually made my body stiff.

You don’t use such good buffs?

I don’t know if it’s too much for the body and mind. I couldn’t understand it at all.

‘I’m just saying that, right?’

“Okay. But as I said before, I won’t use buffs. I hope Echina-sama will understand.”

“No…. Aren’t you going to use it for evaluation?”

Gran’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Echina.

“Ekina-sama…. Don’t rely on buffs. What are you going to do without me?”

“Here you are….”

“I am talking about the future. Do you intend to visit me then?”

“You can find it….”

Gran smiled bitterly at Echina.

“Oops…. Echina-sama is already obsessed with buffs. It is my negligence.”

Gran’s expression darkened.

“The more Echina-nim does that, the more buffs I can’t give you.”

Echina’s pupils dilated as if they were about to explode. Her hands trembled.

‘Finally, she can move like her older brothers…. I could have made her admit her dad….’

“You are doing this because you hate me.”

Echina’s voice trembled.

The members sensed an unusual atmosphere and only looked at each other. Especially for Gran.

Fortunately, she hasn’t lost her relaxed smile yet.

“Heh heh, I hate it. If you’re not a demon, there’s no reason to hate you, is there?”

“Don’t lie! You must be mad at me for saying I was a liar the other day. So you’re doing this on purpose?”

Echina raised her voice.

The other members who were close to the 5th group glanced at Ekina.

“Echina-sama, calm down and sit down. Aren’t you a hindrance to others?”

“Yes, Echina…. Tea, wouldn’t it be okay to talk calmly?”

Leae said carefully.

“You are shutting up.”

“heheheuk….”

As Ekina sighed, Liae lowered her head.

“No matter what Echina-nim says, I can’t give you a buff. Your reliance on buffs is stronger than I thought. Hmm…. It’s the first time I’ve had something like this….”

“What the hell did I do wrong! He pretended to be nice every day…. A devilish bastard.”

Gran laughed and stood up. As he stood up, there was shade.

Even the members felt as if the weather had turned cold.

“That, that?”

Cleod cautiously called out to Gran.

Gran’s face was shadowed. The corners of his mouth came down little by little, and soon it became an expressionless face.

“Demon….”

The crew swallowed their saliva.

Those who watched with interest from a distance only rolled their eyes and looked carefully when Gran stood up.

“Looking at it now…. It looks like Satan has been possessed.”

Gran said with an expressionless face.

“Hey! You can’t explode!”

Leae showed tears and grabbed Gran’s ankle.

“That, that, wait a minute!”

Cleod and Nathan grabbed Gran’s legs at the same time.

Echina looked up at Gran with a sigh.

She gasped when she saw his expressionless face.

“Baby Satan…. Who do you dare to flirt with?”

“… Uh?”

Kwak!

Gran grabbed Echina’s head with one hand and lifted it up.

Echina’s legs floated in the air. She tried to shake her leg to free herself from Gran’s grip, but it was impossible.

“Let go of this! Let go!”

Echina shouted as she slapped Gran’s wrist.

The others said nothing more. I wondered if it might make Gran angry.

Echina’s head trembled. Her shoulders drooped down little by little.

“Wow!”

Soon Echina’s legs, which had been shaking back and forth, convulsed.

Her eyes turned white, and her saliva leaked out of her mouth.

Puffed up.

As Gran relaxed her grip, Echina’s limp body fell to her floor.

“Heh heh, Satan is gone. Let’s see everyone.”

Gran said to the other members who were secretly watching.

The other members laughed awkwardly and turned their heads.

“We also talk about what we were talking about.”

Gran tidied up Echina’s body. Like a sleeping person.

“What are you talking about?”

Florina hurriedly ran in and asked.

“I heard a scream from this side?”

“Heh heh, it seems Echina has a nightmare.”

“What? I was surprised. However…. Did you sleep when I told you to think about what to fix in each group? When you wake up, tell them it’s a deduction.”

Gran smiled gently and nodded her head.

***

Echina let out a scream and opened her eyes.

Familiar space.

It was inside the room. When she looked out the window, she saw that the sun was already setting.

‘I was in class… ? Why am I here?’

Her head throbbed as if it were about to crack.

She felt that she was missing something.

After pondering her thoughts, her memory came to her.

What did she do?

Echina’s eyes began to shake.

‘It can’t be like this…. I have to meet Gran right now.’

She struggled to get out of bed. Her head ached so much that she was dizzy. But her headache didn’t matter.

Now, finding Gran was the priority.

She had been looking for Gran until late at night. Before long, Gran was coming out of the temple.

“Gran!”

“Aren’t you Ekina-sama? What brought you to the temple at this late hour? Her hair is fine.”

As Gran reached out her hand, Echinah closed her eyes tightly.

Echina opened her eyes cautiously. Gran stood there laughing as usual.

“I will apologize for what happened earlier. I think I went too far. And the past…. I’m sorry for everything.”

Gran’s eyebrows narrowed, and she narrowed her eyes.

“Even if you apologize, there is no buff.”

Echina’s heart sank.

For what reason?

“Why, why? You can just give it to me…. Please….”

Eki I got down on her knees.

“If it doesn’t work out, even once is fine….”

“Ah! Who, who are you? Making girls kneel from the beginning of the semester… Also Gran….”

Cloa came out of the temple belatedly and said.

“I’ll do everything you ask…. So just once….”

“Yes? What do you mean? What the hell is going on with this conversation going on?”

“Heh heh…. It’s embarrassing.”
