The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me

chance, are you not feeling well these days?” 

 

 “…What do you mean?” 

  

 

 I tilted my head and asked her what she really meant since her question was silly.
Staring at my eyes quietly for a moment Kania continued to speak.

  

 

“That’s… nevermind.
It’s just, somehow, it seems like that.”

“…I’m just fine, and it’s none of your business.”

  

 “…Yes.”

 

 After finishing her conversation, Kania turned her head to watch the duel, but her facial expression said that she was still agonizing over something. 

  

 

 ‘…What’s wrong with her?’ 

  

 

 I tilted my head for a moment at her peculiar behavior, but soon after, I dispelled my doubts when the professor pointed out Kania and started getting nervous. 

  

 

 ‘…I truly hope black magic won’t pop out.’ 

  

 

 Her mana is in a very precarious state, so there is a possibility of dark mana seeping out of it.
To prepare for such a scenario, I transfused a lot of life force into her this morning, but I’m still a little nervous. 

  

 

 – Clink. 

  

 

 After pondering for a moment, I lightly touched one of the several brooches that I had previously attached to Kania’s clothes and then began staring into her eyes. 

  

 

 The brooch I just touched is an artifact that can transfer life force to the person I’m making eye contact with in an emergency, and it is an artifact I would usually never use because it drains dozens of times more life force compared to transfusing through physical contact. 

  

 

 However, I occasionally use it when I’m in a situation where physical contact is not possible and there is a risk of Kania’s black magic being exposed.
Just like right now.

  

 

 ‘Even if the students won’t find out, Prof.
Isolet will respond immediately to even the slightest amount of dark mana… well, it’s unavoidable.’ 

  

 

 “…Heup!” 

 

 “…Hmmm.”

  

 

 As soon as I started sharing my life force, Kania started casting magic with a more relaxed expression than usual, and soon her duel lasted long enough to break the previous record. 

  

 

 As I felt the sense of my body disappearing over time, I was agonizing over whether or not to continue this, but then soon Kania stopped casting magic and bowed her head. 

  

 

 “…I can only fight this far.” 

 

 “Hmm? Why? Don’t you still have the power to fight more?” 

 

 “I was born with unstable mana, so if I fight any longer than this, my mana might go out of control.
I apologize.”

 “…I guess that’s why you were holding back while attacking.” 

  

 

 Professor Isolet sheathed her sword, then gave her verdict. 

  

 

 “If you can fix that mana instability, you’ll be an outstanding wizard.
Let me help you from now on.” 

 

 “…Thank you.” 

  

 

 So Kania thanked her while politely bowing, then returned to my side.
This time around, Irina was called by Prof.
Isolet. 

  

 

 “…Ugh, Ugh.” 

 

 “……?” 

  

 

 Irina, who stood there while facing Prof.
Isolet, clenched her teeth and trembled, as she barely managed to summon only one magic arrow. 

  

 

 “…What are you trying to do?” 

 

 “S-Sorry… let me try… Again…”

  

 

 Afterward, Irina concentrated hard enough to even make her eyes bloodshot, but even then, after a long time had passed, she could only summon two more magic arrows. 

  

 

 “…Ugh.” 

  

 

 Despite this, Irina continued to pour out more of her mana, but she eventually collapsed and fainted. 

  

 

 “… I don’t know what to say.
Someone, take this child to the infirmary.
Next.” 

  

 

 As Prof.
Isolet stated coldly, Arianne ran to Irina with a worried expression on her face, then carried her on her back to the classroom instead of the infirmary. 

  

 

 Well, it can’t be helped. 

  

 

 Since if they officially announce that Irina is suffering from mana exhaustion, then she’ll be investigated for the cause, and in that case, the reverse tracking of the spell will lead to the death curse she put on me, so to avoid all that she has no choice but to hide it. 

  

 

 When the system’s item store gets unlocked, I’ll have to look for some artifacts that can help her out. 

  

 

 “I, well… I’ll abstain…” 

 

 “…..Huh?” 

  

 

 Saintess Perloche, the next challenger who stepped forward, declared her abstention as soon as she stood in front of Prof.
Isolet. 

  

 

 “Are you kidding me right now?” 

 

 “Ah, oh no… I just don’t intend to use this power on the professor…”

  

 

 Currently, Perloche has the blessing of the Sun God without permission, which can only be obtained once by praying on the sacred day and with Church’s consent, so if she spars with Prof.
Isolet, the truth will be discovered. 

  

 

 Of course, one might think that isn’t it all right to spar with Prof.
Isolet in moderation, but there’s a reason why the legend that the previous generation Saintess tearing off the sides of the Demon King exists. 

  

 

 Although the blessing of the Sun God is weak against multiple enemies, it’s still a terrifying blessing with not much room to counter in a 1:1 situation.
In other words, no matter what Prof.
Isolet does, she won’t be able to withstand it.

  

 

 “…Then this will be the last one.” 

  

 

 Prof.
Isolet, who was glaring at Perloche, beckoned her to go away, then spoke while looking at me, the last remaining student. 

  

 

 “…Status Window.” 

  

 

[Stats]

Name: Isolet Arham Bywalker
Strength: 8.5
Mana: 5
Intelligence: 7
Mental Strength: 7
Passive Status: Injured Right Arm

  

 

 I muttered and opened Isolet’s status window, then after staring at her status window for a moment, I immediately unsheathed my sword and asked. 

  

 

 “…Did you have fun playing around with these commoners? Sister?” 

 

 “……..” 

 

 “Why don’t you say something when someone asks a question…?” 

 

 “…You’ve become corrupt, Frey.” 

  

 

 Yes.
I actually know her.

  

 

 The Starlight and the Bywalker families have deeply entwined bonds that have remained firm over for generations since the era of the Hero’s Party 1000 years ago.
Thanks to that, we had a close relationship like that of siblings and knew each other since we were kids.

  

 

 We used to do joint sword training and play house together, but she is no longer on my side.

 I’m everyone’s public enemy right now. 

  

 

 “…Corrupt? That sounds funny.
I guess sister is just an idiot.” 

 

 “……..” 

 

 “It’s hilarious how the only thing you can do when you come to the academy after kicking off the position of Imperial Knights’ Deputy Commander is to play around with me, just like when we were kids.” 

 

 “…Come at me.” 

 

 “As you wish.” 

  

 

 The moment she coldly cut me off with her words, I charged at her while pointing my sword. 

  

 

 – Clank!!! 

  

 

 And then sparks flew off. 

  

 

 “…..!” 

 

 “Why? Are you surprised?” 

  

 

  She was pushed back for a moment after barely blocking my blow with her trembling right arm, as I kept unleashing fierce sword slashes to take advantage of the opening.

  

 

 “…What? Was Young Master Frey always this good at swordsmanship?” 

 

 “Well, since he’s from the Starlight family, isn’t it natural?” 

 

 “…But rumor has it that Lord Frey doesn’t really have a knack for swordsmanship?”

  

 

 While the students were shocked and started babbling about my unexpected display of skill, Perloche, who lowered her head, stared coldly at the red brooch glowing on my chest.

  

 

 – Claaank!! 

  

 

 The fierce duel concluded the moment when I struck her sword and it ended up getting stuck to the floor, while all the students were stunned by the result…

  

 

 “…It’s magic!” 

  

 

 Suddenly Perloche cut in between us, then shouted, while pointing at my brooch. 

  

 

 “…There’s evil magic in that brooch!” 

  

 

 With that said, Perloche strode up to me then began injecting holy power into my brooch, and instantly an evil aura leaked out of the brooch with a terrible screech. 

  

 

 – Screeeeeech!!! 

  

 

 The brooch, which was making terrible creaking noises for a long time, eventually couldn’t withstand the constant injection of holy power and shattered into pieces, then Isolet who was quietly watching the whole scene finally opened her mouth with a hardened expression on her face.

  

 

 “…To think you would resort to such evil magic, you’re a disgrace to the Starlight family.” 

 

 “Isn’t sister also a disgrace to the Bywalker family?” 

 

 “Frey Raon Starlight, penalized 20 demerit points for using an artifact in violation of the rules..” 

 

 “…Why? You can’t say anything, so you want to press charges with your authority as a professor?” 

 

 “…In addition, individual counseling.
Follow me right now.”

 

 

 Then I started following Isolet towards the main building as I was instructed.
I sighed and muttered under my breath while staring at the system prompt that appeared in front of me.  

  

 

[Acquired False Evil Points: 100pts! (Reasonable investment)]

  

 

 “…That was expensive.” 

  

 

 I remember spending a third of my assets customizing that brooch.
Well, it doesn’t matter now since I got the desired result… However, it’s such a waste since I could’ve just reused it as many times as I wanted.   

  

 

 ‘…I need to write a letter to my father asking for more money.’ 

  

 

 I quietly followed Isolet while lamenting at the irony that it is necessary to have a fortune to commit more evil. 

  

 

 . 

 . 

 . 

  

 

 While Frey was grumbling as he followed Isolet.
 

“evil magic…”

  

 

 Kania, who overheard the phrase ‘evil magic,’ recalled the blood-stained handprints on the bed she saw back in the dormitory and muttered with a sharp look.

  

 

 “…I need to find out what the hell he was doing back in the room.” 

  

 

 As soon as Kania said that, something was being created using the dark mana gathered in her hand.
