Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound Chapter 234

Episode 234 Suspicion (1)

Student Council President Dolores Rune Quo Vadis.

When she heard that the aristocrats and barons, who were the eyes of the student council, ate a lot of water because of the ‘thrifty bazaar incident’ this time, she felt strange.

Unlike the student council, which is an official organization and wields power in the bright side of the school, the aristocratic faction and the noble faction form their power mainly in the dark side of the school.

While the student council conducted its duties in accordance with legitimate school rules and procedures, the aristocratic faction and the powerful faction were gaining prestige by using personal connections, solicitation, and insider information.

So, the student self-government power in the school was divided into three groups: the student council and the aristocratic faction. Dolores did not like them very much because they always enjoyed extraterritorial rights, avoiding the responsibilities of an official organization and only enjoying the advantages of an informal organization.

However, since it was the student council that had to collect public opinion and establish policies accordingly, the aristocrats and barons who led the flow of public opinion were always annoying opponents to keep an eye on.

……and so they drank water. To one individual, a first-year student named Bikir.

The aristocrats and barons, who were secretly expanding their power to rival the student council, lost their face a lot with this one incident, which caused a lot of defectors.

The weakening of political enemies is the same as the strengthening of this side.

Disappointed with the aristocrats and barons, many of them turned around, and some of them even joined the student council.

So, the executives in the student council were smiling every day.

“Shall we recommend that friend, Bikir, to our student council?”

“That’s right. Who would refuse the gold badge of the Student Council?”

“Kyaa, that guy has made it through the ranks. Being a student council executive candidate from the first year.”

“Maybe we can aim for the youngest student council president?”

“Ah, that was too much. It’s not even the student council president. It’s amazing though.”

“Anyway. The nobles and barons will harass him and try to capture him at the same time, so we have to move quickly.”

It was to the point of dropping Bikir in advance as an executive candidate who could rise from the second year.

However, Dolores thought that Bikir would not accept an offer to join the student council, let alone an executive position.

‘A normal freshman would jump at the word that he would make him a student council executive, but… that’s because he’s different.’

No, in fact, it went beyond the other level.

It is also unusual to go out and collect a huge amount of gnoll leather, and to donate all of the proceeds from selling it to a scholarship foundation for high school students.

What’s more, he had the guts to feed the nobles and barons in the process.

‘Gnoll hides aren’t extremely rare, but they’re quite valuable. Burn them in front of your enemies and bargain with them at high prices. No matter how much I think about it, this is not the courage of a freshman in the first year.’

Dolores became intrigued by the character of Bikir.

He is a junior who has been keeping an eye on him since he received an unusually large number of penalty points from the beginning of the semester.

And because of the diligent appearance he showed at the nursery school and the grace he helped to deal with the disaster (?) that occurred during a drinking game, he was paying quite a bit of attention now.

‘And it turned out that I was ranked first in both written and practical midterm exams.’

A student who studies well, has good skills, and is also a very sincere student.

It was a pity that we could have gotten along better if the newspaper club we belonged to hadn’t written a sharp criticism of the night hounds.

And now. Dolores felt a little liking and curiosity at the same time for Bikir’s behavior of giving a blow to the aristocrats and barbarians.

That feeling intensified after watching Vikir and Professor Banshee’s conversation just last night.

‘The prize is named ‘Nymphet’.’

Professor Banshee didn’t understand the meaning of Vikir’s words, but Dolores did.

nymphet. A poor child who was sacrificed in the fight against Dantalian.

Bikir still remembered such a nymphet.

‘Aren’t you being too hard on the kid? Did you get a kiss?’

‘I didn’t receive it.’

It’s not ‘can’t’, it’s ‘not’! He wants to give me a kiss like that, so please accept it!’

‘I’m embarrassed.’

Dolores recalled the conversation she had with Bikir during her last volunteer work at the orphanage.

Bikir had refused to kiss the nymphet because she was shy.

‘Maybe because of the memory of that day, I can’t forget the nymphet all the more?’

If so, Bikir must be hiding a warm heart under a blunt exterior.

No, Dolores was sure of it.

…with a jump!

Dolores hastily rose from her seat.

As the thought reached this point, my heart felt impatient for some reason.

I felt like I had to meet Bikir and talk about something right now.

It is probably because of the sense of responsibility and debt as a person who watched the end of the nymphet with the hound of the night in the fight against Dantalian, and other than that, some unprecedented feelings that she herself is not aware of.

“Huh? President, where are you going?”

“Is there something urgent?”

“What’s on the agenda for today’s meeting…?”

The student council executives turn around with puzzled expressions.

“Sorry everyone! I’ll take care of the agenda even if I stay up all night!”

Dolores bowed her head apologizing and quickly left the door.

She left the lecture building and headed for the dormitory building.

Most of the students are there by this time.

……But it was not so easy to meet Bikir.

“Bikir? He comes into the dorm last.”

“Wouldn’t it be in the library by now? I’m a study bug.”

“It’s not in the library? Hmm, then it might be in the fitness room. Hyung-ah, it seems like he’s working hard… Looking at his body.”

“Yes? Not in the library or gym? Then maybe…”

I asked Tudor and Sancho Sinclair, who were close friends with Bikir, but there was no way to guess his whereabouts.

Even if you look at the entry and exit ledgers at the front and back gates, there is no word that you have left, so you must be somewhere in the academy.

“……Where the hell are you?”

Dolores took a breath and sat down.

I’ve felt it before at the nursery school, but Bikir goes around really well.

‘Come to think of it, even when an unidentified black magician appeared during the festival, the trail was unclear.’

A student whose everything is shrouded in mystery.

Dolores felt her doubts about Vikir grow thicker.

Occasionally he tried to smell the spirit when he was near him, but he couldn’t pinpoint anything.

Bikir usually kept the door of his heart much more firmly shut than other people his age, so there was no way to check it.

Suddenly, Dolores recalled Vikir’s penalty points.

‘It’s unbelievable that you got so many penalty points for taking the wrong road. That kind of smart kid.’

I didn’t know it at the time, but now that I think about it, it’s strange.

I couldn’t get rid of the thought that Vikir must have accumulated the penalty points with some intention.

Dolores opened the chart on the mana stone and took a closer look at Vikir’s penalty record.

< Bikir-life attitude score (deduction factor) >

-Use the emergency exit on the 3rd grade floor of the dormitory building -1 point

-Entrance to the gymnasium exclusive area for 4th graders -1 point

-Use the central stairs on the 1st floor of the poison experiment building -1 point

-Smoking at the experimental breeding house Area entry – 1 point

– Using the central stairs on the 6th floor of the professor’s research room – 1 point

– Accessing the physical training room outside of operating hours – 1 point

– Prohibited passage except for those involved next to the food warehouse of the cafeteria Entry -1 point

.

.

“…These places. If you look closely, they are classified by date.

Dolores decided that it was wrong to find Vikir today anyway, so she decided to follow Vikir’s movement.

why. It was to understand whether a normal first grader would have gone to places where there would be no footsteps and would have been penalized.

……and.

Dolores, who visited all the places listed on the penalty record book, found a strange commonality in these places.

“A dark and high place?”

All of them were places facing the high barriers of the academy.

Dolores looked around.

“…What is it? Did you intend to cross the walls of the academy?”

If not, why did you choose to go to these places? It is a series of increasingly incomprehensible situations.

Right then.

-Titling!

A notification sound came from the mana stone.

Dolores hastily turns it on.

< Bikir-life attitude score (deduction factor) >

– Use of emergency exit on the roof of the first grader floor of the dormitory building – 1 point

A notification appeared that Bikir’s penalty points had been updated. It was just a few seconds ago.

This means that Bikir went up to the roof of the dormitory building and was caught by the supervisor and received a penalty point.

“You were there!”

Dolores remembered that the roof of the dormitory building was also a dark and high place.

Dolores started running with all her might, wondering why she was only looking for places like this.

Eventually, she was able to reach the roof of the first year dormitory building.

But no one was already there.

It seems that both Vikir and the supervisor who gave the penalty to Vikir have already left their seats.

“The fact that you were in the dormitory building means that you are heading to your room, right?”

Dolores hurriedly came down from the emergency exit and, after getting permission from the superintendent, went to the room where Bikir was staying.

……But even there, I couldn’t meet Bikir.

I just met Piggy who was studying in the room.

“Bikir? Did you just come in and leave again?”

“Is that so? Do you know where you went now?”

“He said he was going to the shower. But why…?”

Dolores was about to leave the door as soon as she heard Piggy’s answer, but paused.

It was because he realized belatedly that if the place was a shower room, he would not be able to meet him even if he visited.

“Will you come back to your room after the shower?”

“Well, Bikir goes around well in the evening.”

“……Are there times when you don’t come in?”

“It never happens. He always comes in, even late.”

Dolores nodded at Piggy’s words.

Suddenly, her gaze turned to the place where Bikir was staying.

old wooden desk. A thin sheet and a worn-out pillow. A cheap matrix that looks like it has a few springs out.

It was a simple life that was hard to see people staying.

Piggy’s ordinary bedding on top looks luxurious like the emperor’s.

Piggy felt Dolores’ gaze and smiled awkwardly.

“Bikir doesn’t usually put a lot of luggage in his room. Just like someone who always leaves.”

“……leave?”

“No, no. It’s just my feeling, but from the point of view of my roommate, it seems a bit like that.”

Dolores’ expression turned serious when she heard Piggy’s words.

Around that time, the housekeeper in charge of the boys’ dormitory warned Dolores.

The lower class was also a warning not to stay on the men’s floor for too long.

Dolores had no choice but to turn her steps without meeting Bikir in the end.

“Yeah. Thanks Piggy anyway. See you next time.”

“yes. When Vikir returns, I’ll tell you that the President has visited.”

Dolores left the room after Piggy’s polite greeting,

looking back several times.

…

……and.

into the room . After witnessing this surprising situation, Piggy, who was left alone, muttered to herself, “Could

n’t
the student president… Bikire?”
