"Teacher! How do you feel? Would you like some water? Or something else?"
Shen slowly sat up and felt an unpleasant weakness throughout his body, a wet handkerchief tore off his forehead and fell on his lap. Surprised, he squeezed it with one hand, the other he put to his forehead. It seems, indeed, is slightly feverish. I didn't want to peer into the golden core, Shen diligently avoided even thinking about it.
"Where is Lord Muan?" first of all, Shen asked, starting to guess something about the last one-sixth task.
"He and younger brother Al flew away on swords to carry out the last task."
"I see..." Despite the slight annoyance, Shen felt a great deal of relief.
He was already sick of these tasks. The fact that it was all over and it was possible to return to the league was quite reassuring.
"And how do you feel?" remembering the recent misadventures of the girl, he asked.
"Everything is already in perfect order. This disciple thanks the teacher for saving her life," Annis bowed politely.
"Oh..." Shen burst out in surprise. He did not expect her to find out that it was he who saved her. "This is my teaching duty."
"In the future, I will make every effort not to disgrace the teacher's trust!"
«Is it a matter of upbringing, or are they too fanatical with Al as a match?» Shen was at a loss.
«System, why did they complete the last sixth task so easily? It hurts my pride. Was it really me that slowed down the process?»
[I could make a couple of witticisms about this, but you look so deplorable that even I feel a little uneasy. So be it, I will not torture you. The fact is that the residents themselves have already found a solution to the problem by bringing a shaman woman from a neighboring village. She was just performing the spirits marriage ritual when the protagonist and Lord Muan arrived. So they just had to make sure, upon completion, that the ghost of the virgin was safely pacified.]
«Hmm. Now, perhaps, even a little offensive,» said Shen, preferring to ignore her remark about his deplorable appearance. «I could also attend the event and get more bonus points, right?»
[Considering your luck? It is likely that if you arrived at the site, everything would not have ended so well.]
«So, it's all about me?»
[Despite your best efforts, you are still recorded in the novella as the villain of the story, and that cannot be easily changed. And the things with negative energy that you have been wearing lately instead of jewelry make the situation worse.]
«AND?» Shen touched the rope on his wrist. «So, they are even more harmful than I thought... System, what do you know about that sacred source and connection of souls that Yer spoke about?»
[Exactly what you know. As I said, I am not versed in everything that does not concern the main plot of the novel. And in the story, user number one did not describe Muan's martial arts school in detail, much less mention the sources.]
«How is this even possible? Why is the world so full?»
[I... I also don't know. Before, I was not aware of myself. She spoke only programmed phrases and did meaningless things. Now I exist in this world and have a purpose.]
«I'm happy for you. At least some of us live for our pleasure.»
[You also have a goal, user two.]
«Die from the hands of the protagonist? Or not die from the hands of the protagonist?»
[No, it's not that important. The goal is to build a worthy plot.]
