The position of Trisha, a priest, in the ‘warrior party’ organized around Elijah is a bit subtle.
Because there isn’t much for her to do, whether it’s a battle or anything else.
However, the reason she is never ignored in the group is because she also has her own strengths.
She was always in charge of creating an atmosphere so that everyone could get along well.
And as someone in charge of that role, Trisha was currently feeling a tremendous crisis.
‘We’re in big trouble…!’
How divine power affects people varies greatly, but it is a widely known fact that it awakens special abilities in each individual.
And Trisha’s ability is to be able to read other people’s emotions visually.
‘Why on earth is he like this…?’
When she saw Elijah, she trembled inwardly.
Her face was smiling as usual, but the emotions observed in her eyes were fluctuating violently within them.
To put it simply, I’m mad as hell…!
“…This is the last one.”
Luca said, striking two wolf-shaped phantom beasts with a huge double-edged axe.
“Looking at the strong phantom beasts deployed, it looks like there is something around here.”
“Exactly.”
Falco raised his monocle and received Luca’s words. My gaze was focused on the blue rocks scattered nearby.
“It’s a rare mineral area. “You won’t get a low score if you take just a few.”
“Uh, then Luca will move everything.”
“…Come and help me too, Grid.”
While the grid was being dragged around with a sagging expression, Trisha silently walked towards Elijah.
It didn’t look like he was saying anything out loud, but there was no doubt that he had been thinking about something with his mouth shut.
To begin with, even now, emotions are overflowing with insidious colors inside. I’m so anxious just looking at it that I can’t leave it alone.
“Hey, Elijah.”
“huh?”
“Is there something you’re worried about?”
When Trisha said that carefully, Elijah smiled broadly and shook his head.
“No, there isn’t anything in particular.”
lie.
Because while he was saying that, a black energy was still rising.
“If you have any trouble, I will listen to you. “I wish you would tell me instead of hiding it.”
“Hey, you’re a friend. “You guys have none of that.”
…lie.
Trisha broke into a cold sweat.
Emotions are basically a deep reflection of a person’s tendencies, so if you observe what colors they show on a daily basis, you can roughly know what a person’s ‘tendency’ is.
The most unusual people Trisha has seen recently are Princess Tristan and Elijah.
The princess is basically gray, but sometimes black things sprout up from within. It’s so black and sticky that you can’t often see it.
Although it looks like he is trying hard to suppress it.
‘…I’ve seen it a few times.’
It’s not a common category, but she personally checked several people who were similar to Duke Tristan.
On the other hand, Elijah.
‘Really, it’s weird.’
In most cases, people who are completely insidious have a dark overall psychology. Because I keep emitting those emotions on a regular basis.
However, Elijah always maintains a color that is close to pure white, but occasionally, black colors appear that startle even Trisha.
It must be a feeling of possessiveness, dominance, exclusivity, something like that.
It’s as if such a good person comes out every time he thinks of ‘a certain person’.
You may not even be aware of it right now.
‘…It certainly wasn’t like that before.’
I feel that way ever since I went to the new student welcome party. The incident where the demon beasts were said to have been released, but fortunately they were subdued without any casualties.
What happened there?
“Still, you’ve been thinking about something since a while ago.”
And right now, I’m so angry that those colors are sticking out to the front.
If you don’t comfort her, she won’t be able to live because she’s anxious.
“…is it obvious? Trisha can’t stand it. “They really notice when you’re lying.”
Ah, I’m serious this time.
Trisha smiled in relief as she saw the white light rising from inside Elijah.
Then she racked her brain hard to continue the conversation.
At what point did he become this angry…?
“Ah, is that person called Dowd Campbell-”
Trisha immediately closed her mouth.
Because I could see Elijah’s emotions turning black again.
It was even scarier because his face was still smiling brightly.
“Well, he’s right.”
But fortunately, it looks like the story is being told.
“No, I’ve had some trouble with that person recently…”
Elijah, who was so excited, told various stories.
I asked to be friends and somehow we became friends. Recently, I had some debt, so I even acted like a love dove to the person he liked. If you went that far towards someone from the family of the Duke of Tristan, who is your close enemy, wouldn’t you at least call them off mercilessly as not friendly…
Trisha, seeing Elijah pouring out such sentences one after another, blinked her eyes blankly a few times.
I wonder if this is possible.
“Elijah, do you think you are a real friend?”
“…uh?”
Trisha, who saw Elijah asking questions in confusion, hurriedly closed her mouth.
I said these words without realizing it when I saw Elijah’s emotions mixing up inside him as he spoke.
When they were together, no matter what happened, their emotions didn’t even flinch.
“Oh, it’s nothing!”
“…”
However, when Trisha saw Elijah keep his mouth shut after hearing those words, she was suffering from almost suffocating tension.
It’s my first time seeing this face. She had a hesitant expression, as if she had never thought of such a thing. The emotions that were already turbid inside me became even more confusing and jumbled.
“…Still, they said they weren’t that close and they just drew the line?”
As Elijah struggled to come up with such an answer, Trisha’s face became more thoughtful.
Something even darker was creeping up inside the other person. The feeling that was normally white was now turning into an overall dark feeling.
I have to say something to appease him…!
“Well, he probably didn’t mean it that way!”
“Then why do you say that?”
How do I know that?
But you can’t say that.
“Well, isn’t that because I’m considerate of you?”
“…consideration?”
“That person named Daoud, he’s a baron with no background, right? If someone like you is next to someone with the title of warrior candidate, there will definitely be people who are dissatisfied…! In the sense of preventing that from happening…!”
“…”
Trisha barely managed to squeeze out an excuse.
The evidence was weak, but at least she didn’t think it was wrong.
“…”
In fact, when Elijah heard those words, he held his chin and thought for a moment.
“…Do they usually go that far? No, it seems like he does something like that on a regular basis without even saying a word to anyone… But still, it’s only between friends…”
“Well, if you ask me next time, I’ll definitely say that I didn’t mean it when I said we weren’t close! huh!”
“…Is that so?”
“Well, I’m going to draw a line with you until my reputation is clear! Inside, I feel so close to you…! “There is…!”
“…is it?”
Please stop asking questions.
Please understand and let go of your anger.
Trisha thought so with her wide eyes.
“Uh, wait. “Isn’t that Talion?”
And fortunately for Trisha, those words came from a group of men who were hard at work mining minerals next to her.
“where?”
“It’s roughly a 30-minute walk from here.”
“…Do you see that, Grid?”
These words came from Grid, who was staring into the distance for a long time.
It must be the vision of a gunner in charge of a long-distance projectile weapon.
“If it’s Talion… that Viscount Armand? “You’re good at using a spear?”
“But it’s a little strange. It’s the first time I’ve seen him that angry. “You keep mumbling curses?”
“…Swearing?”
“okay. see…”
Grid frowned, focusing on Talion’s mouth.
“…Inda. kill. You f*ucking swindler. kill. “I’ll make it into skewers… Wow, it’s brutal.”
Everyone’s heads tilted at Grid’s words.
Anyone who knows Viscount Armand’s Talion is a man who is nothing short of exemplary and temperate.
Why would a person like that be that angry in class?
“…”
Just one person.
Except for Elijah, who flinched in response to the word ‘cheater’.
●
Actually, I had no intention of provoking the other person that much.
I was just planning to have a little fun and experiment little by little to see how far the gift ability can be applied.
[ Target ‘Tallion’s anger has passed the critical point! ]
[It brings an indelible shame! ]
[ Negative impact is imprinted! ]
[There are rewards you can receive! ]
[Skill: Domination of Evil is activated. Gain 1 command that can be used on the target! ]
“…”
It worked so well.
What I did wasn’t much.
In fact, it would be obvious to say that it is a route that would come from a freshman’s perspective. This is the same even if Talion has the skills of a freshman.
So, I just went to the moving target that guy was targeting and ate everything first.
Just in case the provocation effect wasn’t enough, I said to Talion, who always arrived later than me, ‘This is really surprising! ‘You’re late!’ ‘Thank you for the good ingredients!’ ‘Thank you for your inexperience!’ ‘If you just work a little harder, you’ll be able to catch up!’ He just threw out lines like that.
These are all voices that were played when using priest skills in the original work.
The politely sarcastic tone is truly exquisite.
I guess I repeated that about 25 times.
“…”
Now that I think about it, I think I deserved to be as angry as I was.
With that in mind, I run away from Talion who is chasing me.
I don’t care about class, and right now my eyes are rolling because I want to somehow stick a spear into my body.
[ A crisis situation is detected. ]
[ Judging by the level of injury attempted. ]
[Skill: Applies desperate death to C grade. ]
I wonder if something like this will pop up.
Getting hit won’t kill me, but that model student is at least angry enough to want to turn my chin back.
‘the problem is…’
They say that if you chase after me like that, you will eventually have to catch up with me at least once.
I don’t really want to fight Talion right now.
Chancellor Atalanta also warned me that nothing good would happen if I got noticed, and that guy is directly related to the final boss, ‘Purifier’.
It might just make him angry, but fighting him directly and destroying him runs the risk of erasing the ‘connection’ between him and the purifier.
That’s a bit like that.
“hey!”
So, I try to talk to Talion, who is chasing me from behind with a hideous look.
“Do you want to just pretend I lost and split the things I harvested in half?”
[The crisis situation has escalated. ]
[It is judged to be an attempt to cause serious injury. ]
[Skill: Applies desperate death to B grade. ]
“…”
Oh, it didn’t even work.
I wasn’t making fun of you this time.
They continue to run, leaving behind Talion, who has changed into a more demon-like form than before.
‘…But, if I keep running away like this, I’ll get caught, right?’
No matter how desperate it may be, that is an elite whose skills are right up to Elijah’s chin. I feel like I’m a bit behind in terms of speed with the B-level application.
If we catch up, will we really have to fight then?
As I was thinking like that, I almost collided with a person who suddenly jumped out in front of me.
“…!”
He catches my balance, which is about to collapse due to a hasty stop.
“What on earth are you doing, sir?”
Elijah touched his forehead and sighed. There was a priest running next to her.
‘It’s Trisha.’
Role as a priest in a warrior party. Nicknamed by users as ‘Biometric Lie Detector’. This nickname was given to him because he has the ability to see the emotions of others.
As I glanced at the familiar face for a moment, Elijah spoke in a calm voice.
“Trisha. “Is it possible to hinder recognition?”
“Yes!”
Next, a hemispherical circle is created around it. It is a barrier that prevents people around us from recognizing this side.
Next, Elijah spoke in this direction with a calm expression.
“Why are you fighting in such a strict place when you should just be peaceful with us?”
“…No, this is all due to circumstances.”
The guy’s head turned in dissatisfaction.
“What is the situation? “I saved you, so you can tell me that much.”
Her voice was still level, but seeing Trisha’s face contemplative next to her, it seemed like she was having quite… ‘intense’ thoughts going back and forth inside.
It’s proof that he’s angry that I’m responding this way.
“…”
That thought blows my mind.
Making Talion angry and making this guy angry are on different levels of importance.
If you are influenced by ‘negative tendencies’, you have received the gift of all kinds of strange effects.
It may be a mid-chapter boss, but if you do something like that to the main character of the scenario, you never know what kind of butterfly effect will occur.
So, whatever.
Next to him is Trisha, a biometric lie detector. Making lame excuses will actually have a negative effect.
For now, let’s tell the truth.
“That guy started the fight first.”
“A fight?”
“Why does a guy like me want to be friends with you?”
Elijah and Trisha’s expressions became strange at the same time.
“…?”
Is this really that surprising?
“…Why are you arguing about something like that? “I understand, considering you’re a fraud and all.”
How can something like that really happen?
Elijah muttered that and looked at me with an embarrassed expression.
“Then why don’t you just leave it alone and fight with that guy? Talion is still pretty strong. According to what the teacher said, we aren’t even that close…”
“How can you ignore that?”
There’s something right in front of you to feel free to test out to see how the gift works.
“…”
After hearing what I said, Elijah slowly turned his head and cleared his throat.
The nape of the neck is slightly red.
…Are you still angry about this?
I’m just telling the truth as much as I can right now, right?
“…”
“…”
But when Trisha heard what I said, her eyes began to sparkle. Next, he pokes Elijah’s side. It’s as if she’s asking you to ask something.
Elijah reluctantly opened his mouth.
“…Sir, did you know in advance that this would happen?”
“Is it going to be like this?”
“Did you know from the beginning that he would act like that?”
Well, did you know that Talion would be so angry?
Then, don’t you know that I deliberately got angry?
“How could you not know? “If there is something that people notice.”
“…Is that why you didn’t go with me from the beginning? “Are you afraid that guys like that will pop out and avoid me too?”
“…?”
Uh, no?
I don’t know what this has to do with me scratching Talion’s temper and avoiding you.
[The favorability of the target ‘Elijah’ increases! ]
[The affinity level has been upgraded to ‘Interest Level 2’! ]
[ Receivable rewards have been added! ]
[Because you are a character with a good nature, your reward will be reduced! ]
“…”
And I don’t know why this suddenly pops up.
As I was dumbfounded, the guy sighed and turned his head towards Trisha.
“Trisha. “Can you please remove the barrier?”
“uh. why?”
“No, just.”
The guy who said that put his hand on the sword sheath.
“I’ve always hated people who behave like crazy people. Especially in human relationships.”
“…Uh, Elijah?”
Trisha called Elijah with a stiff expression.
Because the expression on his face right now is definitely not an expression suitable for a warrior candidate.
“The guy who touches my friend should get it back in the same way. is not it?”
Lately, I haven’t been able to relieve my stress. Great.
I heard him mumbling like that.
[ Target ‘Elijah’ is influenced by you and becomes furious towards target ‘Tallion’! ]
[ Negative impact is imprinted! ]
[There are rewards you can receive! ]
[Skill: Domination of Evil is activated. Gain 1 command that can be used on the target! ]
“…”
What is this?
What on earth is going on?
