After a complicated night with Suin and Yuna’s unexpected remarks, the sun was beginning to rise.

Senior Saya’s phone alarm started to ring.

There was a slight change in Saya-senpai’s chest, which had been moving up and down regularly. My heart started pounding at the sight of her tossing and turning while groaning.

Finally, he opened his eyes slightly, but… he stopped with his eyelids slightly raised. The senior repeatedly clenched and unclenched his fists as if pumping his body.

After a long time, I was finally able to fully open my eyes. I turned my head with difficulty to find myself lying next to me, and when I saw that the seat was empty, I was surprised and got up.

“I’m here, senior.”

As I said that, he turned his head away and looked at the direction where I was sitting, and tried to make a relieved expression… but then he stopped.

And he said with a regretful expression.

“You shouldn’t cry, junior.”

“I, I don’t want to do that either, but my eyes won’t listen to me… . Can you give me an order… ?”

I could somehow bear it when I saw him get hurt, but I can’t bear it when I see my senior who just woke up from a long sleep. Even I think it’s strange.

When I looked at my senior while wiping away the tears that were falling down, my senior chose physical means instead of giving orders.

While I was hugging my senior’s chest and feeling his soft body scent, my heart began to calm down as if it were a lie.

“Isn’t it like I’ve been sleeping for days or something?”

“Yeah. At most, it was about ten hours.”

“But why are you crying like this? You’re a whiner.”

The senior hugged me with a little more force, as if he was holding on to a child who was easily let go. Then he asked.

“Did Yuna give you the piercing?”

“You’re really always watching me… How did you even know what Yuna gave me?”

“Because it was something Yuna treasured. She really liked it, so she was saving it for when she felt like it someday.”

I briefly explained what happened that night.

The senior, who had heard the whole story, nodded with a complicated expression.

“Yes. This is a substitute for a ring.”

“I guess that’s how it is… .”

“I don’t think it’s bad. It would be hard to wear rings on every finger.”

You sound similar to Yuna.

No, but… .

“… Why is it called ‘hanging rings’? How many people do you think I’ll exchange rings with… .”

“I don’t know about that, but I think it’s good to exchange rings with many people. Because you’ll have many precious people.”

“… .”

Usually, you fight because there is a limit to the number of rings you can wear on your hand.

“Senior… Don’t you get jealous or anything?”

“I don’t know. Is this the right thing to do?”

A serious question, not a joke.

“I don’t know which one is right either. As I’ve said before, the criteria for judging in this area are a bit different from the general case… .”

It’s meaningless for me, who truly loved Saya-senpai, a character in a game, to discuss general standards.

but….

“But my senior is too patient, and tends to look down on me, and… because he’s willing to do anything for me… I’m worried that he might be suppressing his feelings.”

It’s not just possible that she doesn’t care about me at all and doesn’t care how many rings I throw around… .

Senior Sa-ya hesitated for a moment after hearing what I said.

“That’s right. There may be cases where you don’t know your own true feelings.”

“I think it’s rarer to know your own mind clearly.”

The mind is a fluid.

Depending on which way you look at it and how you perceive it, it gets a completely different name.

It is a troublesome thing that misleads even the wisest man and makes the most honest man lie.

but.

“But I know this well. I can say this confidently. My junior’s happiness is my happiness. Of course, I can’t say for sure that my feelings will change or not because I haven’t experienced it… But I know that if that day comes, it will be very painful.”

It was something that seemed prepared.

He is a senior who usually speaks passively and hesitantly, but when he says something like this, he doesn’t hesitate.

Always looking at me,

Because you’re always thinking of me.

“You’re so honest, senior. You speak so well without being embarrassed.”

“I can be more honest.”

“Huh? What else is there to say?”

“… I like my junior’s panting voice.”

uh?

I looked at my senior in surprise, and his face turned bright red, but he continued to speak.

“I like the way you open your eyes wide in an unexpected situation like this. It’s cute when you’re flustered and embarrassed… and when you look up at me with a burning look on your face, my mind feels like it’s going to fly. … Are you being honest? ”

“… That, that’s right! That’s so honest! People are really honest and that’s what it is! My heart is a little out of control, so can you give me 30 seconds?!”

My senior hugged me tightly again, saying that it was okay. It seemed like he was trying to hide his embarrassed face, but since my face was also bright red, I gladly followed suit.

good.

Senior Saya’s recovery is complete.

I checked just in case, and there was no problem walking with the regenerated leg.

Now I thought I could just focus on processing the lion’s name with peace of mind… but there was an unexpected obstacle before that.

▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷

That morning was a little later than usual.

Because Su-in absolutely refused to come out of the room. I opened the door and went in, but this time she covered herself with the blanket and put up a full-scale resistance.

There is no one among us who can defeat Suin with brute force while receiving the strength-boosting support of a maid outfit. Perhaps the president who has entered a state of [madness].

If she was just wearing a maid outfit, there are various methods such as touching, but if she is covered with a thick blanket, that is difficult.

What you’re doing now is a protest against the order I gave you yesterday, so I didn’t want to force you by giving another order.

I can’t do it.

“What are you doing?”

The whole family was gathered in the room because Su-in had repeatedly yelled that she would never leave. Yuna was the one asking the question, but everyone seemed puzzled by my actions.

Just a moment ago, I was trying to take off Suin’s blanket, but now I’m sitting in front of Suin’s computer table.

“North Wind and Sun Tactics. Rather than forcibly dragging them out, wouldn’t it be better to let them get some warm sun and make them take off their blankets on their own?”

“… What kind of wicked prank are you trying to play again… .”

“No big deal? I was just checking my internet history from yesterday. Oh, what is this? A dream novel?”

“AAAHH …

Suin threw off the blanket and jumped down from the bed. She ran like lightning and pulled out the outlet on the wall.

“You, you, you, you, you, you… !”

Suin was speechless due to her rage. This person also had a hard time saying anything.

“… Uh, sorry, what’s wrong with your face?”

“It’s because of you! You gave the order!”

“No, I clearly told you to use magic… .”

“There’s nothing I can do! I ran out of magic in the middle!”

hmm….

I thought it would end with just two or three proper lines, but it really was written so densely… How deeply did you think about that issue?

“Uh, yeah. Sorry… . [You can erase it. No, erase it quickly.]”

Suin looked like she wanted to strangle me, but the first thing she had to do was erase the magic.

I ran to the bathroom in a hurry… and said to my senior, ““겣, I’m glad you’re okay, senior.”,” and ran back.

It’s quite special.

And the gazes towards me, who had played a relatively naughty prank, became cold. Hmm…

An hour later, I was eating a much later breakfast than usual, with the character for evil written on my forehead. I felt like a character in a cartoon… .

When I told her that she could do whatever she wanted with my face as an apology, this is what Soo-in did. I thought she didn’t do anything special, but what she said was, “I’m afraid of retaliation… and I feel bad about my face… .”.

I won’t retaliate, but I’m surprised to hear something I didn’t expect. It’s even worse if you didn’t mean to be sarcastic.

Anyway, while eating, I explained to Senior Saya what had happened while I was asleep. About Sajamyeong and Shin Myeongjun.

Senior Saya encouraged Suin, saying that she had worked hard, and Suin bowed her head in embarrassment. She ate half-heartedly, then quickly left the table, saying that she would check the school’s surveillance cameras.

“By the way, did you come up with any good ideas?”

“Um… First, there’s a way to pass it on to someone else. Right now, he’s completely absorbed in himself and has lost his sense of reason. If you just leave him alone, there’s a high chance he’ll pick a fight with someone and destroy himself.”

In the game, it didn’t go this wild, and since it was a kind of closed world, that didn’t happen, but now it’s a different story.

“Here again, you have a choice: either focus on hiding and wait for it to self-destruct, or actively engage in killing the enemy. In that case, you’ll need some help from Yuren.”

“Help me?”

Yuren showed a puzzled reaction.

“Yeah. [Angel’s Paint] is quite versatile. I told you it’s a mistake to think you can’t do anything with it, right?”

“Yu-ren Yang… We weren’t comrades… .”

“Oh, over there, over there… .”

When Senior Saya spoke in a tone that seemed sad, Yuren was at a loss. Of course, Senior Saya quickly relaxed her expression and said that it was a good thing and held Yuren’s hand.

Yuna cut the warm atmosphere.

“But you won’t do it, right?”

“Yeah. I can’t leave that guy’s handling to someone else. Then, there are two more options. One is to use that guy’s base, [Fake Warrior’s Holy Sword].”

However, this is quite difficult to prepare and induce situations.

“And the other one is, well, easy to understand. How to break it with force. If you can break that guy’s [Diamond God], you win.”

We need to put aside whether the Chairman’s [Thousand-Year-Slaying Law] can break [Diamond God]. Another card is Yuna, but… hmm.

“For now, I plan to borrow some useful weapons from Aret. I plan to finalize my policy based on the results of the negotiation.”

Should I really take the risk and write the name of the lion myself? If I could pass it on to someone else, wouldn’t that be okay? Shouldn’t I avoid making choices that could put my senior in danger as much as possible?

But passing the buck to someone else isn’t without its risks. The Black Wolf guys might be a little suspicious of the fact that two offices were raided almost simultaneously… .

There is no right answer, only choices and consequences. In the first place, it is a very blessed environment to be able to set your own policy, so you have no choice but to be grateful for that fact and make a decision.

However, while I was thinking about it, a certain scenario slowly came to mind. If I succeed, many of the problems I have now will be solved… .

I glanced at Yuna.

I guess I haven’t fully recovered my energy yet. Considering that, I’m tempted to take a gamble…

At that moment, Suin’s voice was heard.

“Hey… Isn’t this dangerous…?”

Everyone put down their spoons at the same time and headed towards Suin. The camera installed at the school was being focused on the living room TV… and there, Sajamyeong’s slaves were being beaten by Sajamyeong.

“You mean not a single one succeeded? Huh? Are you kidding me?”

It wasn’t exactly hard to expect a scene like this, with people fighting and throwing punches. We’ve seen it all along.

However, the difference was that the healing hand did not reach out to those who had been hit and were lying on the ground. Seeing that some of them were also rolling around, it seemed that they had been ordered not to use their abilities.

The lion’s name must have been a punishment and was just being left alone. However, when I saw those guys groaning and fainting with pitch-black faces, unable to even scream, I knew that they were not in a state that could be left alone.

He even gave orders not to move, saying he didn’t want to see even the slightest movement.

I know this because I’ve seen it, but if you get hit in the body by that guy, you’re almost certain to suffer organ damage. Acute failure of a major organ is a dangerous sign that can easily lead to death.

“Not good… .”

“That’s right. You probably aren’t measuring your own strength properly.”

When I agreed, the chairman nodded and threw off his pajamas. Suin turned her head, making a sound like “Eww?!”.

And he approached Yuren and said:

“I have to go. Get ready.”

“Sister… .”

“I can’t just leave you to die like this. Don’t you think so too?”

“… .”

Yuren, who had been hesitating, nodded.

Even when she comes to eat, she always has a notebook and pen with her. She immediately starts drawing a battle dress for the chairman… .

“Wait.”

“I know you’re worried, but I’ll try to do something. I’ll make it work somehow, right?”

“No, I’m not trying to stop the chairman.”

The chairman and Yuren, as well as Sempai Saya who was feeling sorry, and even Yuna who was quietly burning with fighting spirit… their will to stop it was firm.

The only one who didn’t show that kind of attitude was Su-in. If even this guy showed heroic qualities, I wouldn’t be able to breathe.

“It’s a bit crude and too risky of an operation, but… Let’s do it. But we can’t jump right in like the chairman wants. We have to at least prepare. Got it?”

The chairman nodded.

Okay. I slowly reviewed the scenario I had just imagined in my head. The risk is enormous. But risk is necessary to achieve the desired result.

“Okay. From now on, with the goal of killing the lion’s name, we will begin the ‘Yuna-less Yuna Awakening Operation’!”

“… Huh?”

Yuna made a loud noise.

“We will prepare from now on and defeat the Lion King in a short period of time. But our last card is not the Chairman. Yuna, it is you.”

While fighting the Lion King, Yuna is forcibly brought up to the manifestation stage. Yuna is the one who delivers the final blow.

“I know you were angry when I saw that kid hurt me and Senior Saya take the hurt. So I’ll give you a chance to vent your anger.”

“… What should I do?”

Yuna, who was momentarily flustered, gathered her wits and asked. I explained to Yuna what she had to do.

Yuna asked after hearing what I said.

“… So, you want me to do nothing and just wait here? Until you tell me to come out? ”

“Yeah!”

This time he didn’t make any strange noises, but he still couldn’t avoid making a bewildered expression.

No, I’m not kidding. This is a seriously important process.

▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷

30 minutes later, Wolmyeong Military School 3rd Gymnasium.

Looking down at the male slaves sprawled on the floor and groaning, Sa-Ja-Myeong was raping the female slaves with an irritated expression.

And as the door to the third gym opened, someone rushed in.

Sajamyeong’s eyes lit up at the thought of an enemy, but soon he realized that it was a familiar face and clicked his tongue.

But the intruder, Shin Myeong-jun, shouted with a venomous expression on his face, his hair singed and his face blistered, as if he had come into contact with something hot.

“I, I know! I know where those bitches hideout is!!!”

A cruel light flashed across the lion’s eyes.
