I Couldn’t Stop my Childhood Friend from Turning Into a Villain

 

•───────•°•❀•°•───────•

The bed was messy. Fortunately, I haven’t had the same dream since then, but the content that seemed to show the past but was completely different from my memory kept bothering me.

 

Among them, what bothered me the most was my childhood attitude toward Liel.

 

‘Was it like this….’

 

Towards the end of the class, I frowned with my chin slightly raised. I think my face looked like this in my dream.

 

I couldn’t check it because there was no mirror.

 

“Ruvia, class is over, so don’t be self-conscious and sneeze comfortably.”

 

Professor Bendick, who was organizing his belongings, said, collecting the class materials neatly.

 

It was not enough that he got my name wrong again, he even misunderstood that I wanted to sneeze.

 

With my chin down, I looked at Professor Bendick with discontent.

 

“My name is Lucy. You called the roll call an hour ago. And you didn’t forget your last promise to not make a mistake, did you?”

 

“Oh, was this my last chance?”

 

As I grumbled, the professor crossed his arms with an embarrassed look and muttered.

 

“Lucy, let’s go.”

 

Melissa, who had already packed her bag, tapped me with her elbow and said, I got up from my seat, bowed to the professor, and followed Melissa out of the classroom.

 

Even then, I was lost in thought. Isn’t a dream an expression of unconsciousness?

 

‘Could it be that I am really arrogant?’

 

I thought that what I saw in my dream could be “me” from the perspective of others.

 

In fact, maybe others think I’m arrogant and cold. Then it’s a little difficult.

 

My grandmother didn’t raise me like that. If I’ve been arrogant without me knowing, I should fix it now.

 

“Melissa.”

 

I called Melissa with a stern look on my face. Then Melissa, who was walking through her assignment to submit to the next lecture, looked at me.

 

“Am I arrogant?”

 

“What?”

 

“Some people can’t objectively analyze themselves. I thought I was like that.”

 

“…….”

 

“I don’t mind, so be honest with me.”

 

I asked, but I was afraid Melissa would say yes. To add a little bit of exaggeration, my palms were sweating.

 

After a while Melissa opened her mouth with a serious face.

 

“……That was the funniest thing I’ve heard this year.”

 

Melissa had a dull face like a man in the middle of the desert.

 

Ooh, I didn’t mean to be funny…….

 

In the first place, that’s not even a funny face.

 

***

 

Dream is an expression of unconsciousness. I don’t know how many times I’ve thought about this. I could have just passed the dream lightly, but something was on my mind.

 

‘If I’m not being arrogant…….’

 

I glanced sideways.

 

Naturally, Liel, who was wiping his blade with a dry cloth, caught my eye.

 

Liel and I were sitting on a bench under the shade of a tree. I didn’t meet him on an appointment.

 

It’s just that Liel found me resting for a while before going to my next lecture and sat down naturally.

 

As I met him by chance, I recalled the contents of my dream again, and this time I came up with another hypothesis.

 

‘I didn’t want to be friends with Liel.’

 

Of course, I thought so, too. Right after I realized that I was reincarnated, there was a time when I struggled to break off my relationship with Liel.

 

I was also the one who asked him to be friends first before I realized I was reborn.

 

Did I regret that I approached Liel first without realizing it?

 

“It’s not really like that.”

 

Liel’s rich eyelashes created a shade under his under eyes. I could feel the passing students glancing at us, at Liel, to be exact.

 

He was wearing a white training suit unlike me, who was wearing an academy uniform.

 

Judging from the dirt on the bottom of his pants and the end of his sleeves, he seemed to have come out briefly during training.

 

Looking closely, Liel surprisingly did not look good in white.

 

Aside from the fact that it didn’t suit him, this made me question the academy for making the training uniform easy to get dirty.

 

“Why?”

 

Suddenly Liel looked at me and asked. Did I stare too hard? He doesn’t pay attention to his surroundings.

 

“Nothing…”

 

What’s the point of telling him a dream? Just as I shook my head to deny it, Liel’s left hand, which supports the sword, was caught in my view.

 

“Did you untie the bandage?”

 

When I opened his palm, Liel gently put his left hand over my hand. Immediately, I turned over Liel’s hand and looked at the place where the wound had been.

 

The wound in the middle of his palm disappeared like it was not there.

 

Does a wound heal this quickly? I don’t know because I’ve never been hurt.

 

“I’m glad you got better sooner than I thought.”

 

I said, pressing Liel’s palm with my thumb. Doesn’t it matter that it’s better one way or the other?

 

“It’s been about a week since I got better.”

 

“What…?”

 

“I just didn’t take off the bandage because I was afraid people around me would think it was weird.”

That means that the wound he had last time healed faster than I thought. Enough to make people think it’s weird.

 

I didn’t know how to react, so I secretly hid my thumb, which was pressing his palm, behind the back of Liel’s hand.

 

“So it’s a secret.”

 

Liel whispered in a small voice as if telling a secret story.

 

“What?”

 

Now the word “secret” coming out of his mouth was terrifying.

 

Looking up at Liel with a nervous look on my face, I put down a dry cloth on the bench.

 

“That I heal my wounds faster than others.”

 

I looked at Liel’s right ankle without realizing it.

 

‘Is it you?’

 

No, I glared.

 

To be honest, it was a good thing that his recovery speed was fast. But if it’s because of the power of the demon, it’s a problem in many ways.

 

As he said, there’s one more secret.

 

In the future, Liel will have to hide superior resilience compared to others, including the tattoo on his ankle.

 

Since I learned his secret as a bonus, I have to pay more attention not to make a slip of the tongue anywhere.

 

“Why do you keep telling me your secret…”

 

The heavy responsibility forced upon me weighed heavily on my shoulders.

 

If, just in case, he turns evil and kills me for knowing his secret. I’m going to blame him.

 

“I know.”

 

Liel smiled sweetly, as if it were not a big deal.

 

What do you mean? This is why I have such a dream.

 

It was a forced shift of responsibility.

 

Although there is no connection other than the presence of Liel, I secretly blamed him with an unfair heart.

 

***

 

The last lecture of the weekday is over. When I thought I could rest from tomorrow, I automatically gained strength.

 

“You were always sitting in the front seat. Do you sit in front of other classes, too?”

 

While I was just thinking about what to do, Karen, who was sitting in the back seat, talked to me.

 

“Yes, Melissa likes to sit in front.”

 

Melissa always insisted on the front seat from the first day of admission. On the other hand, I didn’t really care where I sat.

 

I’m sure I’ll lose my concentration if I sit in the back seat. So it wasn’t so bad to sit in front with Melissa and focus on the class.

 

“Melissa really likes studying……. I had no choice but to sit behind you because there was no seat in the back.”

 

I was so sleepy.

 

Karen, who lay half down on the desk, made a groaning sound.

 

I know that feeling.

 

I nodded and sympathized with Karen’s words.

 

Today Karen tied her hair back tightly without braiding it. Maybe she was late for the lecture and didn’t have enough time to braid her hair.

 

“I don’t like studying”.

 

Melissa, who was packing her luggage, frowned as if she had heard something she didn’t like. Naturally, my eyes and Karen’s eyes turned to Melissa.

 

“I study because I need to, and I sit in the front seat to look good to the professor.”

 

There was no passion in Melissa’s face, answering in a calm voice.

 

Karen and I both blinked several times in amazement at Melissa’s determined words.

 

“We don’t even have a score for attitude, so do we need to look good to the professor? As long as we don’t cause any trouble.”

 

“You don’t know anything”.

 

Melissa turned to the back seat where Karen was. Melissa’s knee almost touched my thigh.

 

“He gave us an assignment in economics 3 class, didn’t he?”

 

“Isn’t it…?

 

“In the case of assignments, it may depend on the professor’s mood. For example, when it is unclear whether he’ll give 10 points or 9 points, wouldn’t he want to give 10 points rather than 9 points if he remembers you were a student who listened to his lecture diligently?”

 

“Oh…!”

 

“The same goes for exams. Of course, you want to give more points to your favorite students for questions that are close to essay writing, excluding questions with clear answers.”

 

Before we knew it, Karen and I were looking at Melissa with respectful eyes. Because every word she said was plausible.

 

Karen shook her head like a person who learned a lot.

 

“You’re very thorough……?!”

 

I didn’t forget the short exclamation either.

 

“Even if they can’t properly teach.”

 

Huh?

 

Suddenly Melissa continued in a fierce voice.

 

“Even if they only brag about themselves throughout the lecture.”

 

“…….”

 

“Even if I have to listen to words that are not related to the class in one ear and spill them out in the other, such professors are more likely to be swayed by personal feelings, so it is better to sit in the front.”

 

“Uh, yeah.”

 

Maybe Melissa didn’t want to hear the professors’ private lives more than the boring lecture.

 

“Y, yes.”

 

Karen also nodded faster than before, as if she was frightened by Melissa’s fierce expression.
