Why Did I Have to Enroll Chapter 88

I went to school for nothing (88)

Lesson 19. Changeling – 3

It was an overly one-sided relationship.

Their positions were different, their thoughts were different, their tastes and personalities didn’t match.

Even when looking at the opposite sex.

There was also a big difference in their views on love.

Love to him was short and hot, and it was a flame that he couldn’t help but reveal.

To her, love was a treasure that was so precious that even though it was hidden in a box, she had to open it and check it again and again because she couldn’t believe it was there.

It’s too clumsy to be love.

It was a bit obsessive for friendship.

Maybe it’s because I just wanted to lean on it.

It may have been a simple admiration.

Perhaps more than 60% of that feeling was just childishness.

―Still, she wanted to stand by his side.

It was all thanks to her, who had a late start compared to the others, that she achieved such great results with her solo exploration.

‘I made a deal. It seems to be a constellation that reveals its face a little bit, but it’s okay because its ability suits me well.’

‘what? I got it after trying it, but it’s better not to get involved with the Constellation. Would you understand if I said that instead of having an extra heart, that heart feels really heavy?’

‘Don’t fret, Mira. You’re already a member of the student council and Professor Campanella’s chief student.’

So when I heard that he had signed a contract with the Constellation, I became impatient.

It was as if he, who was already too hard to keep up with, had completely separated himself from him.

However, he did not know her feelings and stopped the contract with the Constellation.

It seemed like he was making fun of her, who had never been approached by a Constellation.

Although he was good.

So it got even worse.

He drew a firm line on the subject who approached him kindly first and then stepped back.

He always achieves great results without much effort and does not recognize himself properly as he desperately tries to catch up with him.

He who makes his efforts worthless and considers himself like a proud younger sister.

became hateful

―Your precarious and sharp mind is indeed sweet.

It was the first time I heard the voice of the Constellation.

If he had shown up before he came to hate him, there would have been no problem.

―That’s why you can’t enjoy the present you.

The Constellation demanded that someone else’s mental power be sacrificed in exchange for a contract with itself.

and said

They don’t die, but they will suffer for the rest of their lives.

In return, she would become a master of sonic magic.

There’s nothing she can’t do, she thought.

However, the Constellation spoke as if teasing her.

– It may fail. Because you’re an inferior student who’s never had a conversation with a Constellation.

The method proposed by the Constellation to extort the mental power of others is none other than a curse.

And if the curse fails, it flows back to the caster.

There is a saying that ‘a curse must reap more than one life’.

This was not based on an unfounded confidence that the curse would not fail, but rather that a curse that failed to kill the target would instead kill the caster.

-So let’s take insurance.

The Constellation said.

Well, you have a good power.

Even if, by any chance, this curse spell failed and flowed backwards.

At that time, wouldn’t it be better to arrange for someone to receive it on your behalf?

It is ‘changing’ with someone who has similar conditions to you.

―With the man you hate the most.

She could have refused that offer… but if she did, the Constellation would probably never speak to her again.

The Constellation just wanted to enjoy her precarious mind and her agony from the start.

So she nodded.

I thought I had to fail.

I thought there was no way I could fail.

Even if I failed, I thought it might be okay.

And ‘he’ appeared.

Similar to her in many ways.

On the other hand, a man like him.

* * *

“…!”

When I was returning from the ‘contract’ with the last sacrifice, I met his eyes for the first time.

Even though he hid his presence by mobilizing high-ranking sorcery and even artifacts and changed his perception by using authority—his cool eyes, which seemed to see through his identity, were not forgotten.

I thought it was a coincidence, but the next day I realized it was fate.

“Professor Campanella, is this?”

“I got it from a student today. how are you mira Isn’t that great?”

“Really… that’s awesome. Will you be a junior in the department next year?”

“Are you interested? A semi-yuwon student of the famous Rebellion channel these days. He doesn’t have a heavy look like Professor Zenon, but he’s popular with female students.”

“Is that important now? …But maybe it will help you in this case. I’ll tell Ketra.”

At first, she did not know that the identity of the man she met with was Ban Yu-Won.

He just recommended a new student that Professor Campanella has been eyeing these days to the student council members who had been asking for support.

But the moment he saw him with Ketra at his usual cafe, he realized something was wrong.

A spirit that is not easily shaken by the beauty of fairies.

An innate sense of composure and a grace that unknowingly oozes out even in light words and actions.

A sweet voice that pierces your brain.

And—the transparent eyes that seemed to see through even her own intentions when facing each other.

Everything fueled her insecurities.

Restless that he might recognize him, he intuitively thought he was dangerous, without any evidence.

It was the first time my heart fluttered when I saw a man other than Ketra, but my heart skipped a beat in a different way.

I thought that the curse spell might fail because of the man I unintentionally dragged in.

If that happens, then—the changeling has already been completed, so it will be Ketra who receives the price.

Should I stop? But how? On what grounds?

But he didn’t seem to recognize himself at all.

She tried to forget him, dismissing it as unfounded anxiety.

It was Saturday morning that I felt strange.

Those who had already made a contract with her and took the potion felt free from the curse’s influence one after another.

Intuitively, I saw that the man had something to do with Ban Yu-Won.

A belated contact from another executive of the student council proved that intuition was correct.

My mind was empty and I couldn’t think of anything.

Knowing that the curse had already been completed and could no longer be stopped or reversed, she set out to find Ketra.

So desperately that even you can’t understand yourself.

When I finally found him and found out that he was with Banyuwon, I felt so ridiculous that I was about to laugh.

Does that wise and foolish man know that because he tried to help his senior, he rather drove him into a predicament?

He didn’t even know that she was the one who caused this situation, and it was so pitiful and ridiculous that he dressed up to impress her.

However, he hates Ketra, who carefully understands her tastes, yet tries to teach them to his juniors and even connects them with him.

He didn’t know what he was thinking, he didn’t know how much he was worried, and he got tired of seeing him whose attitude didn’t change until the end.

I was able to turn away without a smile and without a word.

I gave up.

Rather, it made me feel better.

Why did he try to make a contract with the Constellation?

okay.

It was because he wanted to get revenge on Ketra.

* * *

The time to activate the curse spell was set from the moment it was formed.

Monday afternoon, normally, the time when the false contractors would be most focused.

However, since all connections with them were cut off, the burden of the spell would be concentrated on Ketra.

A curse too dense for an individual to bear would drive Ketra to ruin on the spot.

Even knowing that, Mira was actually calmly sitting in the corner of Ronika’s alleyway cafe, waiting in silence for the moment the contract was concluded.

“Hello, Mira.”

A junior appeared in the place.

A rookie who draws attention both inside and outside the academy for his unconventional behavior and abilities.

Ruined her plans— no.

A being that has been completed.

“Can I sit down?”

“Looks like you’re already sitting.”

The junior was a man who resembled Ketra without hesitation in words and actions.

Even the graceful face and the light atmosphere that gives off at first glance.

The only difference is the eyes.

Ketra never shoots an eye light that cools her chest.

Ironically, the difference gave her relief.

“First graders must be busy today.”

“I finished the two written subjects in the morning, and Dalian also ended early if I had a winning streak.”

When she was in first grade, she was afraid of Dalian.

I couldn’t stand it because I hated it when people ignored individual characteristics and roles and ranked superiors and inferiors based on simple criteria.

However, Banyuwon is a different shape.

―Even in terms of artifact production, she has already achieved achievements that surpass hers.

She directly asked the junior who was smiling strangely.

“Are you interested in me?”

“yes.”

I couldn’t believe myself for thinking that I was even a little happy with his prompt reply.

Was it that she was such a light woman?

Did she completely cut off her feelings for Ketra by abandoning her?

Or is it that he longs for a new love even more because he can’t yet?

…a love to replace Ketra, whom we will never see again after today.

“Actually, I am also interested in you. Even I am a little surprised.”

“Then it was close.”

Ban Yu-won’s smile deepened.

It was a laugh that made my heart uneasy.

“what?”

“Because if I had a little more interest, I would have failed.”

failure.

what?

The moment I thought about the meaning, I felt cold inside, as if I had swallowed a large ice cube.

Ban Yu-won took a sweet cafe mocha, took a sip, and then stretched out his hand leisurely and scribbled a word on the table.

soundproofing.

Obstruction of vision.

barrier.

“Now I don’t have to worry about people’s eyes.”

“What are you going to do?”

“I was considerate of my seniors. I don’t know how great the curse’s rebound is, but it’s worth dozens of people.”

“Wait, what do you know…”

That moment.

A sharp pain struck her, as if sharp thorns were piercing her from head to toe.

I realized that the curse had been activated.

―Thump

―Thump

thump ―Whoops!

“B—-!”

“I’m not sure what happened between the two seniors. Actually, I don’t even know.”

What would happen if dozens of people’s mental powers were robbed at the same time?

Stronger shock followed by stronger shock followed by waves of more terrible pain.

My head was empty, and countless curses filled it.

I wanted to die, but the supreme soul born as a fairy did not allow it.

“You huh, what a Ketra…!”

Ban Yu-won replied with a plaintive expression to her, who clung to her chair and trembled with her mouth open in intense pain.

“Still, it’s not a curse for someone who hasn’t done anything bad. It’s the worst way to end unrequited love.”

“you you… Shut up!”

“What’s so unfair? It’s self-employed. Surely I shouldn’t have to explain in detail how I found out about my senior’s trickery here, right?”

The pain was getting worse and worse and now I couldn’t even speak.

I have already reached my limit, but every time I try to breathe out, the pain far beyond that comes steeply higher.

What shall we call it, if not hell?

“Actually, there was something I wanted to ask, but since I’m looking at it right now, I can’t. Well, in the end, it ended well without anyone getting hurt besides myself. … It seems that the Constellation’s mental manipulation is also to blame.”

Ban Yu-won sighs and puts down his glass.

He suddenly took out his staff and pointed it at the half-left cup of sweet coffee.

“I’ll do one thing I’ve always wanted to do, senior.”

Several concepts were activated by verbal magic and landed in the coffee.

A concept that reduces pain, heals the mind, boosts regeneration, and weakens the interference of the constellation.

But at this level, you end up peeing on your frozen feet.

As if Ban Yu-Won was well aware of that, he finally took out the crystal of the burning demon core and dropped it into the glass.

“I’ll make you an offer you can’t refuse.”

Ban Yu-won said, pushing the liquid, which was no longer simply coffee, towards her.

As if to unequivocally prove the difference in position between the two, who had changed in an instant, the way they spoke was different.

“Drink if you don’t want to become a disabled person. In return, I’ll have to give you everything you can give me.”

ah-.

In endless pain, she realized.

Now, isn’t this the same composition as when he tricked the ‘victims’ into a contract?

Who the hell is the foolish and pitiful?

was himself

It was a complete defeat with no room for complaint.

‘This man is me—’

Strangely, at that moment, joy comparable to pain filled her brain.

The man who smashed her plan head-on.

This tyrant who surpasses himself, surpasses Ketra, and laughs at even the Constellations.

He was trying to dominate her completely in exchange for a cup of sweetness in front of his eyes.

it wants her

―As expected, he is different from Ketra.

“Ah ah…”

Reaching out a trembling hand, she took the glass.

Miraculously, all the pain and trembling disappeared at that moment.

Even the emotions and anguish that remained like dross in her heart were completely erased.

Only the existence of the ruler’s anti-yuwon remained.

―Without

hesitation.

She emptied the cup of the contract.

Haeju (解呪) was established.
