Chapter 57.2
(EP-57.2) Theo #6
057 – Silver Rookie Theo #6
I just discovered more about being a Half-Nymph. This daɱned race…
Seuk, seukseuk.
Forgetting the thoughts regarding Nymphs, I said to the doctor who was applying alcohol on my arm.
“Miss Kalira. You really did get a job here.”
“Wasn’t that your request, Sir Theo? You did ask me to infiltrate the Ark after all.”
“Indeed. Still, I had no idea that you would get a job in the central building like this. You even own such a luxurious office for yourself.”
I was amazed at Kalira’s, the Young Lady of the fallen Baron Skull Family, infiltration skills. But then again, she was originally an assassin and poison master.
I hired her for a number of reasons, and decided to have her infiltrate Ark.
But should I say that I was rather surprised because it worked so well?
Squirt-.
Kalira sprayed some water onto the needle.
“There was a shooter… Anyways, I suddenly feel ill, so I’ll be resting for a while.”
“Did you raise a hand?”
“Well…”
Then, after some hesitation, I eventually asked.
“Do you like working here?”
“I really like it. Though the admissions team staff kept trying to flirt… But it’s nothing new.”
“That’s good.”
“And I was surprised that you have planted other people as employees besides me. Specifically, that ogre. You’re quite the brazen fellow, aren’t you?”
“The more cards you can use, the better.”
“How many more men do you have in Ark besides that ogre and me?”
How many? Only the poor Imp Marmar Marnoi was left…
The fact that the Ogre Gorgor worked for me was already exposed to everyone. Marmar’s reveal was also just a matter of time. Basically, only Kalira could be counted on as a spy…
However, I decided to lump such information in moderation.
“Without that ogre, Miss Kalira might have fought with that Barbarian in my stead.”
“Good grief. You should know that I’m not good at keeping things half-alive~.”
Huhuhu— Along with a chuckle, I felt a stinging feeling on my arm.
“Ugh…”
The thought that Kalira was poisoning me crossed my mind, but I knew better than anyone that there was no reason for her to do so.
“Is your brother doing well?”
“Yes, thanks to you. He was rather surprised to hear that I got a lot of money. He also enrolled at Ark this year.”
“Really? What subjects did he take?”
“I don’t know either. We minimize contact with each other as much as possible. Just like you and me.”
“Okay. Then, for the time being, focus on being a health staff member. If you hear any important information from the central building, please let me know.”
“What could be considered ‘important’ information?”
“As always, it’s news about a crossbow warrior, a female barbarian warrior wielding a great sword, or a priest using a giant hammer.”
These made up the protagonist party in the original Villain Hunter.
You should always be on the lookout for information about them. After all, these guys were like the eye of the storm.
“I see, you’ve become more relaxed than before, haven’t you?”
“Well, I guess I’ve become more accustomed to Ark.”
“No, about dealing with women. You’re not embarrassed with your arms touching my chest.”
“…….”
… Now that I thought about it, Kalira’s large ƅreasts were indeed on my arms. I assumed that it was just for the injection, but it seemed like it was done on purpose.
“You probably had some experience with women in the past few days, right~?”
… Clearly, Kalira was s£ducing me.
“Come whenever you have some trouble. I am, after all, a health professional~.”
Kalira then moved the same hand that was holding the syringe, up and down…
“I can make you feel refreshed in many ways. If it’s Theo-nim, I’ll give you special treatment. I can even be your ‘private’ doctor~.”
The soft allure continued through her red lips.
I was a little weak at this. I simply didn’t know how to react when hearing these kind of things from women.
If it was playboy Theo, would he welcome it? But I didn’t want to make the atmosphere awkward by saying something wrong.
“Your ears are turning red. It is characteristic of Nymphs to have blood rush at the tip of their ears. It seems that Half-Nymphs are the same~.”
“… Eherm, anyway. I’ll come back later. Until then, I hope you do well with your position.”
I then quickly got up from my seat. Staying here any longer might make me suffer a lot of disgrace.
I could somehow manage with girls my age like Elga and Narmi.
But a skillful older woman like Kalira was a bit difficult. Saint Priga as well. Speaking of, Professor Stella Belhawk was also the same.
When I came out of the central building while fantasizing about older women, the sight of a shouting crowd greeted me.
“It’s holding onto my poor parrot! Someone please do something!”
“That’s a Blue Eagle. It is a ferocious bird…”
As I dug through the crowd, I could see feathers strewn around a tree and a blue bird clutching something on a branch.
It was the size of a child, and when its wings were spread out, it looked like a predator that could even carry a fox away. In appearance, it had a shorter beak than an eagle, so this bird might be closer to a hawk.
‘… That’s Professor Belhawk’s pet.’
I believed it was called ‘Tweety’?
Just then, someone shouted.
“Someone please save my parrot! That daɱn bas†ard is tormenting my poor parrot!”
Looking closer, there was indeed a parrot at Tweety’s claws.
━Bad bird-! Bad bird-! Tweety! Bad bird-! Gueek-!
In short, Professor Bellhawk’s pet bird grabbed and harassed someone else’s pet parrot.
Come to think of it, earlier, Professor Belhawk asked Marmar whether she had fed her pet on time and where it was.
Maybe the hungry bird, Tweety, decided to hunt another bird.
At this time, I suddenly wondered how far my taming magic, Halpas, would work.
Could that terrifying Blue Eagle be tamed?
Perhaps by taming that guy, I could create a stronger connection with Professor Belhawk. Therefore, I slowly stretched out my finger towards the blue bird and chanted an incantation.
HalPhas.
Bubble bubble~.
I could feel magical energy emanating from my body. But it felt like my physical strength that has just been restored by the injection was once again draining away in an instant.
Drip~.
My nose began bleeding again.
Just as I felt dizzy.
「Mystery that reaches the limit! Rank 2 achieved!
Job: Mage 1+ Level
Mage Lv. 3 → Lv. 4
You can now get closer to the mysteries of the world.」
The blue bird’s claws, which had been gripping the parrot’s neck, loosened. Then it flapped its large wings and sat down on the arm I had extended.
━Cooo, cooing-!
This fella let out quite the strange cries…
