The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

022. Creating clubs (2)

I want to throw cookies like this.

But I couldn’t.

I’m a servant and that woman is a young lady.

Blood gushed out, but I couldn’t help it.

Cider, cider is needed.

“what are you doing? Do you want me to go and exchange it for a piece of cake?”

“yes… All right.”

I turned around with a shudder.

As I was walking, I heard Sepia’s voice from behind.

“what are you doing? Are you running away?”

ah… .

Are the anaerobic stacks enough?

I muttered to myself and started running.

Like jumping in the army.

Stopped at the concession stand and turned cookies into slices of cake.

And back to Sepia.

“Did you buy a piece of cake?”

“Yes, I bought it.”

“great. Go back now.”

Sepia waved her hand.

It was like chasing a bird out of a garden.

I bowed my head and turned around.

After taking about three steps, Sepia called me.

“Ethan.”

“yes? Did you call?”

“You know… Um, tea… Do you want to go for a drink?”

“sorry. It seems impossible today because I have a prior appointment.”

I declined in the politest way possible.

It’s not like I had a prior agreement, but I didn’t get shot in the head either.

If you drink sepia and tea, you won’t know whether the tea goes into your nose or mouth.

So it’s a refusal.

“… … ”

“next time… .”

“When next time?”

“I think it would be fine if it was a weekend.”

His expression, which had been frozen like ice, softened a little.

It’s stressful thinking about having tea or sipping with Sepia on the weekend.

No matter how pretty you are drinking tea with the young lady, stress is stress.

I put on a nice smile.

“great. I will send you today.”

“thank you.”

I just went back to the dormitory.

Tired, I spread out on the bed and lay down.

Just then, Arthur returned to the room.

Originally, our main character, who should have defeated the devil, did not, so he had a very dry appearance.

“Ethan, I asked Anya if she would like to join the club, but she joined.”

“Oh yeah?”

I glanced at the crystal ball.

Just then, a text message arrived from Tesha.

-hello. Ethan. This is Tesha. (۶ ̀ᴗ ́)۶

Thank you for today. Did you enter carefully? ٩( ᐛ )

I’m working part-time right now. ＼ ٩( ᐛ ) و /／

So reply may be slow!

By the way, thanks to Edan, I was able to come to my senses even during the demon attack!

They say that even if you enter the dragon nest, you can come back alive if you stay alert!

It was a long text with a total of fifteen lines.

Seeing the long text lined with all sorts of emoticons made me dizzy.

Tesha still knew the lengthy text as courtesy.

That’s because it’s the etiquette of the imperial palace.

To be considerate of others, a three-line summary is essential… .

anyway.

The conclusion of the text is that he will join the club.

tired. I feel tired.

Aren’t you tired of texting for so long?

Do I have to write such a long reply?

That thought crossed my mind, but I just decided to answer briefly.

-Wow!! exorcism! What a great choice! (´ー`)ノ

I felt sick to my stomach as I tried to overdo it through text.

Still, because Tesha said she would join.

Now I, Arthur, Anya, and Tesha are four people.

You only need to save one more person.

But no one came to mind.

“Hey Arthur, do you know Tessa?”

“Tesha?”

“Yeah, it’s my classmate who wears a sword and has a short haircut… .”

“iced coffee! Tesha. You know who.”

Only then did Arthur clap his hands.

Well, among women, if you wear a short haircut, you stand out.

“But why Tesha?”

“I just got a text message saying I’m signing up.”

“uh? really?”

“Okay, now we just need to find one more.”

If possible, I would like to save two more.

That way I can get out of club activities… .

However, there were only two that came to mind.

Sepia and Tia.

Club activities with Sepia?

Every time I think about doing the cookie shuttle, my blood gushes backwards.

I thought it would be better to recruit Tia.

But I’m afraid of sepia’s burning heart.

They will definitely try to kick me out of being a logness servant.

And I will cut off subsidies such as tuition fees.

But what?

If you’re kicked out, just take an exile.

The stocks I bought and the contract with Tia come to mind.

This is the corner I believe.

I opened the newspaper and checked stocks.

The adventurer’s guild’s stock was rising steadily.

Total assets 130%.

In just a few weeks, his fortune increased by 30%.

“Here Ethan.”

“yes?”

“How about inviting the sepia lady to join?”

Our ignorant protagonist asked that.

I’m trying to get out of someone’s grip right now.

I shook my head.

“That’s not a good idea… .”

“why? The sepia girl has a good personality… .”

Oh My God.

I was fooled by Sepia’s smoke.

Originally, there was no development where Arthur fell in love with Sepia.

no way… ?

If so, that’s one guess.

“Is it because of Vivian?”

“uh?”

“Did you fall for the sepia maid?”

Instead of answering, Arthur lowered his head.

That alone was the answer.

“Sorry, Miss Sepia is not interested in club activities.”

This is true.

In the original work, Sepia does not join the club.

And Sepia joins Arthur’s party later.

“Do you think it would be better to recruit Tia?”

“Ummm, that’s right?”

I have no intention of interfering with your dating business, but I’m dropping out of school to do club activities with Sepia.

“Then, I’ll try contacting Tia.”

“Okay. Okay.”

I found Tia’s contact number in the crystal ball.

Tia got a call soon after.

[hello? This is Tia Erze.]

[Tia, this is Ethan.]

[yes? What are you doing?]

As expected, Tia’s hard way of speaking is not used to it.

[I plan to create a club with a friend named Arthur.]

[Yes? A club?]

As far as I know, Tia hadn’t joined the club yet. Due to Tia’s personality, she must be gathering information here and there.

[What kind of club are you creating?]

[I’m thinking of creating a hunting, adventure, and social club. I want Tia to join us too.]

[Who are the founders?]

[I’ve thought about it, but I haven’t asked for it yet.]

Most of them had been talking to them, but they didn’t say anything. Arthur, who sensed the strangeness, only blinked with his eyes wide open. I brought my index finger to my mouth. Why am I saying this?

[Not yet?]

[Yes, not yet. But if Tia comes in now, she will be the first founding member.]

Because Tia likes to be in the front row.

This made me feel like giving Tia a chance first.

In reality, Anya and Tesha would have been invited to join first.

anyway.

It wasn’t because there was a lack of people in the middle, but because we put you first in this club, we recommended you first.

I needed to make that impression.

[Because I wanted to invite you to be the first member.]

[Whoa, the first member?]

Tia was lost in thought for a moment.

And it gave me the answer I expected.

[I think I need some time to think about it.]

[Is that so? Yes, then do so.]

And the contact was cut off.

Arthur seemed to wonder why I asked that way.

Should I explain this again?

I sighed, but I felt I had to explain to our protagonist.

“Because of Tia’s personality, she’ll feel bad if I don’t recruit her first.”

“ah… .”

Arthur nodded and gave a look of understanding.

After all, our ho… , No, he was like a righteous and good-natured protagonist.

“But Ethan, you need the professor’s approval to create a club.”

I nodded.

“Has anyone thought about which professor they’re going to get approval from?”

Several professors came to mind.

But also… .

“Professor Sylvia von Lynchester.”

“ah… , Sylvia von Lin… , what?”

“I’m going to ask Professor Sylvia von Lynchester… .”

Because I have a personal friendship.

I omitted that word.

of course.

It was no surprise that Arthur was surprised.

Because Sylvia and Anya had a cold impression that even Anya couldn’t approach easily. Also, it was hard to meet him because he didn’t have a first-year class in the first place.

“Professor Sylvia is the Professor Sylvia I know?”

I nodded once.

“Would Professor Sylvia allow the club to be established?”

“You can ask.”

“Yeah… . It doesn’t.”

In fact, I could have asked several other professors besides Professor Sylvia.

There’s Professor Raf Terberg, who teaches martial arts, and Professor Cassia von Radiere, who teaches magic and herbalism.

Still, since I’m more familiar with Sylvia than with other professors, I thought it would be better to ask first.

* * *

I took a deep breath holding the club establishment agreement.

“Ask for the club to be established?”

Sylvia looked over the consent form I handed over and said.

“Yes, I will never bother the professor.”

Hmmm, Sylvia snorted.

“This is the first time someone has asked me to help start a club.”

Sylvia picked up the fountain pen lying on the desk.

I wanted to sign it as it was, but I didn’t.

Sylvia, who was tapping the consent form with a fountain pen, parted her lips.

“Ethan, you’ve been doing interesting things lately.”

“When you say fun, what do you mean?”

“It means that you recently led the team and caught the mine.”

oh

Well, it was not unreasonable for Sylvia to hear the news of the demon attack. Sylvia smiled heartily.

“You can sign the consent form as many times as you like. Instead, there are conditions.”

“Conditions?”

“Yes, conditions. … First of all, do you have time on the weekend?”

I didn’t understand at first, so I waited in silence for the next words.

“So, there’s a socialite party on the weekend, so you’ll have to accompany me.”

“Are you talking about a masquerade party?”

Sylvia nodded once.

It was a gesture that seemed completely devoid of personal feelings.

“Yes. There will be a socialite ball from Saturday evening.”

“Why do you want me to be your partner?”

In fact, there are a few things I can guess.

But I had no choice but to ask.

No matter how cool Sylvia is, she is a member of the Lynchester family.

Even if he had no intention of going into politics, he could not ignore all his connections in social circles.

She currently holds a professorship at Nadia Academy, but Sylvia is one of the best swordsmen in the Empire.

Moreover, the Lynchester family is one of the 10 most prestigious families in the Empire.

Even the Lynchesters wouldn’t want to miss out on a socialite opportunity.

“Because going to the social scene without a partner can be a hassle.”

Is that too

Probably, all the nobles who were in the middle of the day would try to become Sylvia’s partners.

It would be difficult to reject all of them individually.

“Besides, I have already turned down invitations from socialites twice.”

Here, Sylvia let out a sigh.

It was the first time I had ever seen her sigh.

That wasn’t enough, so I gently pressed my temples.

“The head of the family has lost his name… .”

If you are the head of Lynchester… .

Sylvia’s father, Benek von Lynchester.

He was the current leader of the 1st Knights of the Empire.

“If you don’t participate this time… . They said they would dig me out of the family register.”

Sylvia said in a calm tone.

It’s like what you ate for lunch yesterday.

“So you need a partner.”

As long as he knew about Sylvia’s difficulties, he couldn’t refuse.

And because I had to create a club too.

Eventually, I agreed.
