I Became a Genius Swordsman in the Pretty Girl Game

Chapter 190

「Ring of affection and obsession」

Grants a percentage buff to all characters based on one person’s affinity for another person.

A true story-level item equivalent to Tier 1 of “Velvet School Life!”

It was clear that it was such a huge item that the future operation of the game would depend on whether or not you get it.

Otherwise, no matter how thoroughly I prepared, I would not have gone on an expedition into the dangerous Jukai Forest.

‘However······. How did this happen?’

Immediately after putting on the ring.

I couldn’t help but feel absurd.

Tiring─♬

《You are wearing the “Ring of Affection and Obsession.” Ability enhancements are given to those you have affinity for. 》

Because there were some strange people in the target group.

《 Applicable 》

【 Lee Yuri 】 – 4%

【 Kang Do-hee 】 – 4%

【 Lim Ga-eul 】 – 4%

【 Sophia 】 – 4%

【 Shin Se-hee 】 – 4%

【 Ichika 】 – 3%

To be honest, I thought it would be great even if it only applied to Sophia.

However, it went one step further and applied to Shin Se-hee, who was not a combat professional, and Ichika, who had not yet officially joined the team.

Well, there’s nothing you can’t understand up to this point.

In any case, Shin Se-hee was not only a combat worker, but also an original member of Utopia

It doesn’t make sense at all if you think of it as a system where Ichika is automatically included in the party if you survive.

However.

【 Baek Seol-hee 】 – 4%

【 Lina 】 – 3%

It was truly unexpected for these two people’s names to appear.

‘Eh······? Master and Chairman Lina? Why are these two...’

As soon as I think of that, Chairman Rina’s name starts blinking.

Soon her name was completely erased from the list.

‘······What is it?’

I couldn’t help but think like that while scratching my head.

With such a strange feeling, I submitted the request completion form to the Japanese Hunter Management Headquarters.

It was midnight when I returned to Velvet Academy.

First, while dispersing the probably exhausted party members and giving a brief briefing to Shin Se-hee.

“Disciple, I have something important to say.”

The teacher in question came to visit me.

“Please follow me for a moment.”

Jerbeok─

Jerbeok─

I thought as I walked behind Master in uncomfortable silence.

‘Somehow, it feels like it’s been a long time since I last saw you... ‘

Originally, during summer vacation, Master would often watch the training,

As her personal duties increased, that promise could not be kept.

So I was happy...

The way she walks ahead is different from usual. And it felt like her breathing, which was always quiet, became slightly rougher.

‘Are you angry...?’

Somehow, I felt like her displeasure was being conveyed to me.

‘Why are you angry? Oh, really...?’

What flashed through my mind at that time were Kang Do-hee’s words that he had asked earlier with a complicated expression.

─ Yellowy, this... What happened? Suddenly my strength became stronger...

She asked about the ring that suddenly appeared on her finger and the increased strength.

And I explained it to him as it was.

─ Yes, it is the effect of the artifact. Chemistry with me, um, I mean. It is an item that has the deceptive effect of increasing all abilities of people who are deeply related to me. I’m glad it seems to apply to everyone.

Although he said that to the party members as if he were bragging.

It occurred to me that the reactions were surprisingly complex and subtle.

At that time, I realized again.

The fact that this is not a game but reality.

Clearly, the “Ring of Love and Obsession” Is something gamers can’t miss.

It was an item that had to be grabbed.

Realistically accepting this is another matter.

‘I didn’t realize that people might not be happy about their abilities suddenly being strengthened by artifacts.’

The abilities strengthened by the artifact are not powers obtained through one’s own efforts.

Therefore, for a type like Kang Do-hee who is very proud of the power he has built up, this could have hurt his pride.

The next day,

Ichika made up for the lack of sleep with Velvet Hunter Academy’s technology, regained her energy, and became a plump face.

She had a one-on-one meeting with Shin Se-hee separately.

It was to finish the story I couldn’t finish the day before.

“Mr. Ichika.”

Whoop

Shin Se-hee sipped her coffee and looked at Ichika over the teacup.

“Yes.”

“I heard she is coming to Utopia.”

“That’s right.”

“Before entering Utopia, Ichika must first change his affiliation to Velvet Hunter Academy. Do you agree with that?”

“Yes, I agree.”

Shin Se-hee took out several of her documents and laid them out in front of her.

“Then there is something I need to check before that. By any chance, are you currently a member of the Japanese Hunter Management Headquarters? Or, have you ever belonged?”

Then Ichika shook her head.

“No, I only lived in Jukai Forest right after awakening.”

“Hmm, then the Japanese Hunter Management Center doesn’t even know that Mr. Ichika is an awakened person?”

“······Perhaps?”

“Then things will be easier. If he was part of the Japanese Hunter Headquarters, he would have a lot to offer, but that’s not the case, and he doesn’t even know about his awakening... Well, I guess it’s possible. ······As a Japanese citizen living abroad, would you be okay with returning to Korea this year?”

“Yeah, it doesn’t matter.”

Nod.

Ichika quietly nods her head.

‘At first, I expected it to be a difficult conversation...’

Surprisingly, things became easier when she came forward with an attitude of accepting everything.

‘What kind of person is this?’

First of all, we have obtained information that he is obsessed with Jin Yu-ha.

‘Then, shall I take a stab at it...?’

If you poke it once and see the reaction, you can judge how to treat it in the future.

Shin Se-hee put the papers aside and leaned forward as if she was done talking about work.

“Hey, Ichika.”

“Yes.”

“Could you please tell me what percentage it is?”

Direct straight.

You probably don’t know what this question means.

‘Indeed, what should I answer?’

“3.”

From noble mtl dot com

Ichika’s response was immediate.

Shin Se-hee stared at Ichika.

Ichika looked at Shin Se-hee with the same expressionless expression as before.

‘······I don’t think it’s a lie. Thank god. Still, I am higher than Ichika.’

Shin Se-hee, like the other party members, sighed in relief.

“Hmm, this makes me wonder how much other people have as well...”

It was so small that even the person in front of me couldn’t hear it,

Ichika reacted immediately.

“Do you want to know?”

“······Yes?”

“How much have other people risen?”

“······Oh, do you know?”

“Yes, I already know everything. “These kids told me.”

Slurring─

Shadows suddenly emerged from beneath Ichika’s feet.

“······!”

Shin Se-hee’s eyes widened when she saw Ichika’s abilities for the first time.

“I think I should probably become friends with that person.”

“······Yes?”

“He’s the type that would be tiring if you had him as an enemy.”

“······You have a good feeling?”

“Huh. So, bribe.”

And the bribe was truly effective for Shin Se-hee.

Sigh─

Shin Se-hee raised the corner of her mouth and held out her hand.

“The deal is done. Mr. Ichika. I think we can become good friends in the future.”

“Good.”

Ichikawa Shin Se-hee held hands.
