Despite Being an Extra, I'm the Villain's Childhood Friend - Chapter 47.2
Chapter 47.2
As Izeline read a few more lines, she realized that it was a war story about fighting demons. It was a book with a different protagonist’s name and no trace of the word ‘romance.’
“I guess you’re feeling something.”
“….”
She lifted her head and realized that Grosh was staring intently at her.
Oh.
She wasn’t making a strange face, was I?
Leaving her bewildered, Grosh made an admiring expression. It seemed that there was some kind of misunderstanding.
“Amazing.”
As he said this, he handed her something. It was another book. One with the same cover design as the one she was holding.
Feeling a strange premonition, she slammed the book she was holding shut. Belatedly, the title of the book caught her eye. It was a different title than the original she knew. And the book Grosh had handed her was another title.
“What is this?”
“What does it look like?”
To the question that was answered with a question, she carefully closed her mouth. Grosh, who had been staring at her blankly, also opened his mouth with a puzzled expression. She didn’t know what it was, but it seemed like the misunderstanding had been compounded.
“You’re lucky, Gerald.”
“….?”
Looking back, Gerald was leaning against the bookshelf with one eyebrow raised as if he had been there all along.
“Teacher! When did you get here?”
“Hey. Do you want to learn some magic?”
“….?”
What is this again?
Watching the rude teacher, who only spoke what he wanted asked abruptly, Izeline furrowed her brow.
“Suddenly, what kind of magic?”
She was already overwhelmed with the liberal arts lesson.
Gerald was dumbfounded by the blunt response that showed no sign of passion for learning. He doesn’t usually offer to teach magic to anyone. Thinking that Izeline was still young and didn’t know anything, he arrogantly raised his chin and offered again as if doing a good deed.
“It’s a precious opportunity that others beg for on their knees.”
“Then give it to those who desperately need that precious opportunity.”
“….?!”
“I’m already overwhelmed with just the lessons.”
Gerald was flustered and raised his voice at the act of drawing the line perfectly, saying, ‘No way.’
“Hey, do you know what you’re missing? It’s a huge deal for a mage to take a disciple, even if the emperor asks! Even the rich can’t do anything when it comes to mages taking a disciple!”
“Yes, yes.”
“I’m a disciple of the great Magic Tower! You’re getting the honor of being the disciple of disciple of the Magic Tower!”
“You said you were a nobody who had nothing to admire.”
“Do you even know what you’re kicking away?!”
“I guess I’m kicking away a mountain of burden.”
“That’s not it! Listen carefully!”
“I’m listening.”
“There’s a huge reward waiting after a bloody effort!”
“So, I have to put in ‘bloody’ effort.”
“You little―!”
Because of Izeline, who wouldn’t back down an inch, Gerald had to rant for a long time like someone who couldn’t give a precious opportunity.
Watching him, Grosh chuckled.
“There is no greater joy as a teacher than to have a good disciple.”
Judging from the way she sensed the presence of the mysterious book and her reaction to looking into it, Izeline seemed to have a lot of talent as a mage. It was natural for Gerald, who was a mage at heart despite his crazy personality, to covet her.
However, it seemed that the path to gaining a talented disciple would be difficult.
Seeing Izeline covering her ears with both hands in front of the grumbling Gerald, Grosh shook his head helplessly.
