Chapter Index

    I’ve been having some problems lately.

    Ludwig Persia Since rescuing Vivian, many changes have occurred in my life.

    “Hurt.”

    “Hello, senior!”

    “Yes.”

    “I still remember the incredible skills you showed when conquering the 13th floor..! My dream is to work hard and become someone like you!”

    “Rather than targeting me, make yourself a goal.”

    “…Yes! Okay!”

    First, every time I walk down the street, the number of people who recognize me has increased dramatically.

    The reason is obvious. Originally, the 13th floor, which was only conquered a long time later, was broken at this point.

    Something I did without thinking about it brought about stronger waves than I expected. With a bit of exaggeration, it’s safe to say that the whole world is talking about me.

    Confucius, who was kicked out of the Howlan family, eventually broke the 13th floor. That Confucius is truly amazing. What is my son doing, etc.

    Whenever I went for a walk when the weather was nice, I had to deal with hot stares without fail.

    ‘That person is Prince Dyers…!’

    ‘This is the person who destroyed the dungeon that was said to be impregnable with pure skill..’

    ‘He’s tall and tall, and he’s a talented person who would be great if he were to join our family.’

    ‘There is one more talented person to enroll in graduate school.’

    At the last glance, I felt some fear and avoided it.

    A person who was already quite well-known within the academy even achieved the achievement of clearing the 13th floor, so this phenomenon was not strange.

    Secondly, there was a human who kept following me around.

    “Magpie, look at that. Are they just going hand in hand? I’m jealous~”

    “…Phew.”

    “Why are you sighing? The weather is nice, so you should smile! Now, like this..!”

    The human who is the cause of most of my anxiety grabbed my lips and pulled them up.

    “Strike away that hand..”

    “Wow, you’re so pretty~ When you smile, you look like you’re going to tempt innocent people who don’t know anything~”

    “…Hey.”

    Ludwig Persia Vivian.

    The missing student council president stuck by my side and had no intention of leaving. Thanks to this, various rumors were multiplying in the streets.

    -Actually, Prince Howlan and Vivian were lovers..!

    -I heard that you were engaged to each other when you were young. Wasn’t that true?

    -Why is everyone talking about so long ago? I heard you’re already unofficially married…? This is an issue that both families have agreed upon.

    -That’s why Dyers was so obsessed with the 13th floor… Well, her lover went missing there, so it’s totally worth it. I guess I liked it more than I thought, to the point where I risked my life.

    -I thought there was no blood or tears, but it seems to be something else for my lover. President Vivian, who was so perfect and elegant, relaxed her expression in front of Dyers and stayed close to her side.

    -I’m jealous… It’s not that we love each other enough to risk our lives. If my boyfriend told me I went missing on the 13th floor, he would immediately go meet another woman.

    -Hey, I found out that Dyers confessed first?

    -I think I heard that somewhere too. When the two were working at the student council, Dyers pushed the president against the wall…

    -He was a real man.

    -I heard that Chairman Vivian pushed first.

    -She was a bimbo.

    Most of them were rumors related to me and Vivian.

    These ridiculous rumors didn’t just pop up offline. Akashic Records, which can be said to be a student community, was filled with stories about me and Vivian for several days.

    [Title: Why Dyers is the best romanticist of our time]

    I worked in the student council for a short time, so I know everything. I think the main question right now is who confessed first, but the bottom line is that it’s Dyers ㅇㅇ

    I’ll just tell you all the anecdotes he told former Chairman Vivian.

    1. Working overtime together every day ‘just the two of us’

    Even though former Chairman Vivian told everyone to leave work, Dyers always worked together without leaving work lol. So, former Chairman Vivian can’t help but view it positively.

    2. They just hang out with each other all the time

    In fact, everyone knew that they were already dating at the time lol. What should I say? If Vivian, the former president, was kind to everyone else, but it felt like there was a bit of a barrier, does it feel like there is nothing like that in front of Dyers? I had that exact feeling.

    3. This is the most important reason, and in the end, he risks his life and continues to challenge the 13th floor to rescue the missing Vivian;; How would you do something like this if you weren’t in love? Even 100-year-old love can’t be this bad haha.

    When I pretended to read it, it seemed like it had been written by someone from the student council, with lies and truth cleverly mixed together.

    However, the comments were all positive, as if the truth was not important. Before I knew it, I had become the Academy’s best romanticist. If I were to be honest, I’m closer to a necromancer, but I’m far from a romantic person.

    I was forced to watch a romantic movie and ended up falling asleep several times.

    -Honestly, after seeing the controversy over Dyers’ personality, ugh;; But after seeing this, I changed my mind…

    – ㄹㅇㄹㅇ If you do that to others, what happens? You tried that 13th floor several times to save your lover.

    -I think I will be really nice to my wife when I get married later haha.

    -In the end, becoming an expert on the 13th floor and successfully forming an expedition again at the end is the real point. I was really freaked out when I saw Dyers just draw the stage 1 maze;

    -You must have tried so hard to save Vivian that you even memorized the structure ㅜㅠㅠ It’s a thousand-year love, really..

    It’s good that my positive reviews are increasing, but I had to stop spreading false rumors. So I left a comment.

    -Dyers and Vivian are not lovers. Please don’t spread rumors. As far as I know, there is no romantic feelings between the two and Vivian is just playing a prank on Dyers.

    ㄴ ㄹㄴ

    ㄴ It’s already been cross-verified, but he says he’s not alone haha. Your life is also very sad..

    ㄴ Just looking at it, it looks like it was written because Mosol is bad at dating.

    ㄴ Take a shower and go outside and meet people. Don’t slander these two people who are living well.

    Then, he received a huge backlash and various personal attacks. What’s even more absurd is that the comment I wrote was reported and deleted, and my account was also suspended for a day.

    I thought the source of the rumor was bored students with nothing to do.

    As I was walking down the street with Vivian, who was right next to me, I met a vassal of the Ludwig family.

    When Vivian greeted him, he also bowed his head.

    “You two get along very well.”

    “Nice to meet you.”

    “Ah, Dyers. Thank you again. The Ludwig family will never forget your kindness.”

    He continued speaking with a happy expression. I felt a moment of reluctance and asked him.

    “Did the ‘rumor’ start from the Ludwig family?”

    Despite the sudden question, he answered naturally without any signs of embarrassment.

    “Haha. Of course not the Ludwig family. It must have been created by bored students.”

    “I haven’t told you what the rumor is yet.”

    “Ah.”

    He scratched his head as if in despair. I glanced at Vivian and saw that she had an innocent expression on her face that said she knew nothing.

    The sight was so unpleasant that I grabbed her nose.

    “It doesn’t work for me.”

    “Ahh..! I didn’t order it..! You’re just carelessly holding my senior’s nose..!”

    It was the Ludwig family that led the spread of the rumor that Vivian and I were lovers.

    Behind him will be the head of the family, Ludwig.

    For some reason, both dogs and cows only talk about this.

    .

    That wasn’t the only problem.

    As Vivian continued to stick by my side, she began to invade my daily life.

    “Hey, Dyers. This person..?”

    “Hello~ You are a close friend of our magpie!”

    “Ah, hello..!”

    While Pur and I were eating alone, one more person joined us. We usually took turns cooking, but today it was Pur’s turn.

    “Then the dish is for 3 people…”

    “Oh no, let’s make it and eat it together. Wouldn’t it be more delicious if there were more types?”

    “Yes..”

    Assa Pur, who is very shy, could not easily handle Vivian’s friendliness.

    I happened to watch two people cooking.

    “Look closely, Dyers.”

    Vivian, who was joking around earlier, has gone, and the chef can be seen concentrating with skillful hands. I knew she was good at everything, but I didn’t know she was even good at cooking.

    I think he’s better than me.

    “How about it?”

    Vivian must have sensed my gaze and turned from cooking to ask triumphantly.

    It looks really cool to show off your skills differently than usual.

    “Honestly, it’s cool.”

    “Enough to fall in love with it?”

    “Uh.”

    “Then, massage me later too.”

    Because I saw you doing “.”

    I roughly answered while massaging Pur’s shoulders. I massaged it to tell it not to be nervous, but it actually became more rigid.

    I feel like I’m trying too hard and making a mistake.

    “This is not it.. Where did the salt go..?”

    Possibly intimidated by the unexpected handling, Pur made the mistake of confusing the seasoning container.

    I grabbed the salt shaker and handed it to her.

    “Here it is.”

    “Ah, thank you Dyers.. I’ll make delicious pasta..!”

    That’s how the cooking ended.

    Vivian’s dish is spaghetti mixed with beef and tomatoes. Pur’s dish was essentially cream pasta.

    After tasting both dishes, Pur lowered his head.

    “It’s delicious…much better than mine…”

    “No~ Everyone has different charms. How about a magpie?”

    Honestly, Vivian’s cooking was more delicious. Aside from that, Pur’s cream pasta wasn’t bad either.

    It’s not a cooking battle, so there’s no need to decide who’s superior.

    “Both are delicious.”

    Pur’s head, which had been bowed at my words, slightly lifted up. And I don’t know if I saw it wrong, but Vivian’s eyebrows seemed to twitch ever so slightly.

    “Yeah..? Is that so.. was that really the best choice?”

    She gave me a puzzled look and quietly laid down on my lap. Then Pur saw that and his movements stopped altogether.

    It’s a little scary because it stops as if it’s really been stunned. When I look again, my eyebrows are lowered so much that I think I look like I’m crying.

    “What are you doing while eating? Don’t lie down.”

    “Why are you doing this again~ This is something we always did when we worked together in the past.”

    “Every day..?”

    Pur, who seemed to be in culture shock when the student council’s working methods were exposed, opened his mouth and asked me with his eyes.

    I had a silent conversation with her in the air.

    -Is that true..?

    -Is this true?

    -But if it’s not real, why are you lying on your knees right now?

    -That’s because this woman is out of her mind.

    -Why is Dyers quiet? Was the rumor that the two were lovers true?

    -That’s because this woman spread rumors.

    -…Dyer also likes that woman… Yes, I see… Can I ask how they met?

    -Pur. There was cream on my lips.

    -Hey, they’ve already progressed to kissing..?! You don’t even talk to me..?

    Since we only communicated with our eyes, at some point we no longer knew what each other was saying.

    “Magpie, keep looking where you are. You should look here.”

    Perhaps dissatisfied with the fact that I was only looking at Purr, Vivian grabbed my neck and turned me toward her.

    I couldn’t help but turn my gaze towards her. Even though she is lying on my lap, I can feel her appearance all over again.

    “Magpie. Dyers.”

    A face similar to Jenna’s with red hair and large crimson eyes gathered in one place would have easily captured the first love of countless male students at the Academy.

    That’s not all. She was a perfect person who was good at everything, the elegance of an aristocrat, and even the origins of being the eldest daughter of a prestigious family. She was a person with nothing missing.

    “What do you think of me..?”

    That person grabs both of my cheeks and asks me with a grin. I answered right away without any hesitation.

    “A pretty senior who doesn’t often buy me food.”

    “Puhuhuhuh! I see That’s how ‘our Dyers’ think of me.”

    Vivian seemed to be satisfied with my answer and smiled, creating a strange atmosphere. I tried to get up to get out of my seat.

    If there’s one thing I overlooked, it’s that Vivian isn’t really good at everything.

    With a smile on her face, she grabbed the back of my neck and gave it strength.

    As the situation unfolded in an instant, my body automatically turned downward.

    “Huh..? What are you two doing now?”

    Just like that, my lips met her lips.

    Just like the cherry blossoms falling in spring, a fleeting moment passes.

    It wasn’t a deep kiss where the tongue was inserted. It was just a bird kiss that left a small trace.

    I just thought Vivian was a person who was good at everything. For the first time, I realized she couldn’t do it.

    She is not good at kissing.

    “Hi.”

    I took a quick look at her, and before I knew it, she had gotten off my lap and was making a mischievous expression. Just as I was about to say something, she whispered in my ear.

    “I like Dyers the best in the world.”

    “……”

    I have always been confident that I could distinguish her acting. But this time it was very confusing.

    No matter how much I listened to it, I didn’t feel it was a lie.

    The trembling heartbeat is clearly conveyed. A slightly reddened face is visible. Her eyes showed not only affection, but also anxiety, nervousness, tension, and shame.

    As if trying to hide those feelings, Vivian hugged me tightly. At that moment, I heard the door opening.

    “Senior Dyers! It’s been a while since a nun came and I came with her. Oh, a few people came as well. It’s okay, right?”

    “Dyers. You didn’t get hurt much, right? I brought some porridge…what are you doing now?”

    The expressions on the faces of acquaintances whom I had not seen in a long time were cold.

    “Ah, nice to meet you all.”

    Only Vivian greeted the guests with a grin.
