Chapter 106



Although I was puzzled by Meyer’s sudden question about my ideal type, there was no reason for me not to answer. I answered honestly.

“There are many kinds of ideal types, but… What comes to mind right now is a man with a [1]light butt.”

“Butt… what?”

“I hate it when a man just sits around. I like men who move diligently and well.”

A man with a heavy butt will always make others do the work. I’ve never been a fan of men who need to be taken care of.

‘I don’t want to fall in love with a man who doesn’t want to move a single finger because I’m too busy breaking dungeons… I don’t want to be in a relationship unless it’s a man who brings water to me and picks strawberry stalks every day.’

I recalled my head, praising myself for making my own decision.

Anyway… I don’t know why he’s curious about a man of my taste, but I thought his curiosity would have been solved once I answered him.

But it was my illusion.

Meyer mumbled, touching his chin.

“That’s a little vague.”

“What’s vague?”

“Is there anything else?”

“What else? About my ideal type?”

Meyer nodded.

Why was he digging so deep?

It bothered me that he was bothering me about it, but I could feel the pressure in Meyer’s intense gaze to get some answers.

That was fine. It was not a difficult question.

Ideal type…

I pondered, my brows furrowed.

“Hm…I guess, height? You have to be tall, right? About a head taller than me?”

“A head taller… also?”

“It’s good to be handsome… I like people with thick eyebrows, maybe because my eyebrows are open.”

“And?”

“It’s not good to be too stupid. Because we have to communicate. At least I hope the intelligence index is similar to mine. Oh, it’s good to get the gag points right.”

“Intelligence index… Gag points…”

Meyer continued to ask questions, writing down each thing I said as if he were a doctor preparing a chart.

“What about physique? Skinny or muscular?”

“It’s better to have muscles, right? Strong men are my taste.”

Meyer’s lips were twitching.

I couldn’t guess what point I meant made him feel good.

“And personality is… I like obedient people, maybe because I’m stubborn. I hate it when they talk back and argue.”

“…”

Suddenly, Meyer’s pen tip stopped. His face, which looked good earlier, was crumpled.

“Leader? Is there a problem?”

“… No. Right. Personality. Is there anything else?”

“If there’s anything left, it’s money? Of course, I am paid a considerable annual salary as the vice commander of the Black Knights, but the men’s side also needs to have stable real estate and personal assets, so it is good that they are well prepared for their future retirement. Oh, of course, there must be another job to do. Because when people play and eat, they get lazy.”

“…”

“But no matter how much money they have, it’s useless if you don’t spend money on me, so I hope they’re a man who spends a lot of money on me.”

“Good. I have a lot of money…”

“What?”

“Nothing. What other conditions do you have?”

I said it up to here. Should I say more?

Appearance, physique, personality, wealth… Didn’t I say everything?

Oh, come to think of it, there’s one more important thing left.

But no matter how much I say everything to Meyer, I didn’t know if it was okay to say this.

Meyer, who quickly noticed that I was hesitating, urged me.

“Hurry.”

“… Sexual function?”

“What?”

Meyer asked back with an expression of sincerely hoping that he had heard something wrong.

“It’s important if you’re lovers…”

I murmured at the end of my speech. It didn’t matter how embarrassing it was, it was important.

Meyer’s face turned bright red and then immediately pale. No, he wouldn’t act like he’d heard something he didn’t want to hear.

To make the world’s Meyer Knox on the verge of fainting with just one word. Thinking about it that way, I thought it was great too.

However, apart from that, I was ashamed of the situation in which I was having such a conversation with Meyer. My face was also heated up by Meyer’s unusual response.

“Ah, so why are you asking me all these questions? I won’t answer anymore.”

“W-Wait, Jun!”

With a yell, I quickly rose from my seat. I fled before Meyer had time to stop me.

My purpose for breaking into Meyer’s office in the first place was forgotten in the back of my mind.

Suddenly it was an interrogation of my ideal type.

… What did Meyer Knox really think about?

***

Fabian’s stomach churned with frustration. There was nothing in the world that went his way.

Jun was Jun, but the immediate problem was April.

April may have been offended by what he said the other day, but she didn’t take him at all seriously after that.

The discord between the expedition leader and the expedition’s main healer spread to the other expedition members.

Everyone took a hint even after throwing a joke. The rigid and intimidating atmosphere made them suffocate.

They, who are in the middle and lower ranks among the expeditions, were hit here and there, but even the atmosphere within the expedition team was depressed, and it was really unbearable.

During the first round, the expedition was a bit more determined…

<It’s in the middle and lower ranks right now, but what do you think? Fabian will lead our expedition to the best!>

<Of course! Fabian is a chosen hero!>

<If we succeed, we will be able to drink without paying attention to the price of alcohol. I’m looking forward to that day.>

He remembered how they had laughed brazenly and talked boldly about their aspirations, undaunted by their middle-ranked performance.

The members of the group had changed somewhat, so some faces were here now and some that were not…

Did I make the wrong choice?

No, I never made the wrong choice. I made the right choice…

Fabian openly admitted his mistake in the first round and corrected it.

But he was able to do so boldly because they were all mistakes that had passed.

Now that he has not yet faced the consequences of his new decision, he was not strong enough to admit that he had made the wrong choice.

Unable to bear this fact, he kicked his way out of the break room where the expedition members were.

But there was nowhere to go.

Fabian crossed the Imperial Palace as far as his feet could take him, without any place to go.

It was all because of Jun.

If that girl hadn’t provoked me in the first place, I wouldn’t have had to fight with April, and the atmosphere of the expedition wouldn’t have become so muddy.

No, if Jun had come back to me honestly in the first place…

The familiar gray hair that had become so familiar caught Fabian’s gaze as he mumbled, his eyes reddening in this way.

“They say even demons can appear if you speak of them…”

Fabian sneered.

Jun was going somewhere alone. He had a good idea where she was going. He was in the right place just in time.

He could take this opportunity to put an end to the conversation they couldn’t finish last time because of the interruption.

Fabian quickly followed Jun.

***

After reporting to Meyer, I was able to do the timing. And once the time was right, I blatantly lured Fabian out.

I knew Fabian’s movements with Sevi’s magic, so I just had to stick around where his eyes were.

And the foolish Fabian came right up to my mind.

Having deliberately brought him to a familiar place, I belatedly discovered him and pretended to be surprised.

“… How?”

“I know everything about your behavior patterns. You used to avoid attention here in the first round.”

Fabian condescended as if he knew me well.

If he thought about why I avoided attention here in the first round, he wouldn’t be able to say that. It was a convenient head that remembered only good things.

I glanced around the corner.

It was pitch black due to the thick branches of the trees, just the right place for someone to hide.

I quickly took my eyes off there. It would have been difficult if Fabian noticed my gaze for no reason. I turned my words around pretending not to know.

“So? Why do you keep bothering me?” I will never go back to you. The first time I put the name Fabian Expeditionary Force on you was enough.”

“You’re saying so, but… Your words are not credible because they were said after you even put on a show to get my attention.”

“What?”

It was surprising he noticed that rumors of the relationship with Axion were a show, but the nuance of the words was strange.

As I looked at him curiously, Fabian said condescendingly.

“You deliberately chose a fire wizard to provoke me, didn’t you? Ha, that’s a shame. I won’t be fooled by your charade that I can see so clearly.”

Oh, fuck. What is he saying?

I almost cursed severely without realizing it.

If I had known I would receive such a ridiculous misunderstanding, I would never have chosen Axion.

I regretted and regretted my past choices, but it was already spilled water, and Fabian had taken a sip of the water.

“Of course, since you’ve made it that far, your pride may be hurt if you come in bent out of shape. I understand all that. So don’t worry too much. When you become a member of my expedition again, I’ll keep the fact that you betrayed me under wraps for a while.”

“What kind of bullshit are you talking about?”

I was facing Fabian because I had a plan, but that didn’t mean that I wasn’t annoyed that I was listening to that bullshit.

“Don’t be too sensitive. Because you never know how long you’ll be in the Black Knights.”

At his meaningful words, I bit my lips and raised my eyes.

Despite my glare, Fabian said with confidence.

“The Black Knight was going around you so much… Does he know you have a memory of the first round?”
