Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 179

179. Just for once (3)

“Why are those people here…!”

The old gentleman opened his mouth.

“It’s getting in the way of our guests. Could you please get out of the way?”

The woman withdrew with a bewildered expression.

Not long after, the main characters of the topic appeared.

Two men and two men are wearing stiff black uniforms. Formed in pairs, they walked with restraint toward the parked limousine.

“That uniform… I think I saw it somewhere.”

Jenna tilted her head.

I clicked my tongue and said.

“How long have you forgotten?”

“Ah, ah, I remember! Niflheim! It’s such a strong place. But why did you come here? I thought they were playing in bigger waters.”

“…”

I narrowed my eyes.

Niflheim has no reason to come here. This is because even rewards such as high-grade Advent or 5-star summon tickets are worthless at that level. Nonetheless, they appeared here. Even giving up the chance to enter a high-level dimension city.

‘ha.’

The service is too much.

I had never heard of such a story.

“Come on.”

The old gentleman opened the limousine door.

“There is still one person left. Wait a minute.”

The young man in the lead shook his head.

A white cross mark is embroidered on the left chest of the uniform. It was the certificate of senior trainee issued by Niflheim’s training center. The last three wore similar badges.

I only took the kernel.

All four of them seem to have been summoned when I wasn’t there, as I don’t remember them, but it was clear that they were the best 4 stars existing in Niflheim.

Those senior jockeys must have become 5 stars right away.

“Why Niflheim?”

The blonde woman who was absentmindedly had long since become an extra.

The outstanding trainees from Niflheim stood unmoved by the pouring gaze. It seems to be waiting for the other one.

After a while, the last member joined.

He chased after the waiting member with an iron spear hanging behind his back.

“What were you doing? You’re late.”

“M-I’m sorry. I was changing clothes.”

He scratched his cheek with an embarrassed expression.

‘…’

The limousine carrying Niflheim’s event party left the square.

Jenna, who was looking at this dumbfoundedly, murmured.

“Just now, I didn’t see it wrong, did I?”

“I wondered where it disappeared, and it seemed to be stuck there.”

Belquist smiled.

“I’ve heard about Niflheim at first glance. They say it’s the strongest in this district. Isn’t it a success to be treated like that? That’s great.”

“It’s strange. The Aaron brother I used to know…”

“Doesn’t he like a big city rather than a rural area like us? He’s wearing a nice uniform.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to wait and see. You never know what the circumstances are.”

Edith, who had joined before she knew it, said.

“Even if we get over it… I guess it’s something to celebrate for us. It’s true that our situation is harsh. Isn’t that right, Han?”

“Well, that’s right.”

I replied with a smile.

The last member of the event party was Aaron.

His tall height and somewhat inexperienced face remained the same, but the atmosphere was noticeably different.

‘Hmm.’

Even if compensation had nothing to do with it, Niflheim’s external image was at stake.

I would never have let go of the idiot.

“This is going to be difficult… isn’t it possible that I can’t take the summoning right?”

“You don’t have to bring it. It’s warming up, so don’t overdo it.”

In any case, my goal was Advent.

It’s okay to take a summon ticket, but if it doesn’t work, it’s to the point where you don’t.

Many special guests came to this event. It will be a good opportunity to know how much I have grown.

As transport buses came and went, the number of people in the plaza gradually decreased.

Our Taoni party boarded the last bus leaving the square. According to the pamphlet, the opening ceremony was tomorrow. Today we are supposed to rest overnight at a hotel.

“Are you listening?”

“why?”

I was looking out from the back seat of the bus when Belquist spoke to me.

“As far as I know, that senior was not very talented. Is that right?”

“That’s right. Even if ten of them came, it wouldn’t have been good for one of you.”

“But it’s strange. That senpai is over there…”

“It must mean he’s gotten stronger.”

I leaned my arm against the window sill.

Anyway, Niflheim was the enemy in this Raid Festa.

It will be your strongest competitor. I don’t know about other divisions, but I will definitely appear in the main tournament. There was a very good chance that one of those members would be Aaron.

‘Are you trying to make Aaron gain experience?’

It’s expected, but I don’t know the exact intention.

Is it the will of Yurnet or the will of Muden? If you make a call, the answer will come back immediately, but I don’t want to rely on it here.

‘Or…’

There is also a possibility that Aaron has completely converted.

No one knows how people’s hearts will change.

‘Even if he converted, it doesn’t matter.’

It’s not so bad living comfortably in Niflheim rather than rolling around like a dog and dying in Taone.

From my point of view, I mean.

I thought about this and that and passed the time until I arrived.

Arriving at a high-rise hotel located in the center of the city, we unpacked our luggage at the hotel following the bellboy’s guidance.

Jenna made a fuss at the size of the building she first encountered, and Edith couldn’t hide her surprise. Kishasha said she was dizzy and vomited several times. On behalf of the staff, I helped the members adapt by instructing them on how to use the facility and other precautions.

“Nippleheim came?”

“No, because what are they lacking…?”

“What is that fuss about? Do you have something to eat?”

“Haven’t you heard of Loki? The strongest fighting group in Server 2! There was a reunion party incident last time. The four of us dumped hundreds of airships…” Hotel floors and hallways are buzzing with stories of Niflheim

. was

“Nippleheim, Niflheim. My ears hurt.”

Corridor on the 8th floor of the hotel.

Jenna was pulling a steel cart.

The cart was stacked with tons of food from the buffet restaurant on the first floor.

The accommodation we were assigned was a triple room on the 8th floor. There are five rooms and three double beds.

There was also a wide table in the living room for a strategy meeting.

“By the way, brother Aaron, did you really fall for it? Don’t you know something?”

“Well. If you talk, you’ll understand.”

“I don’t know where it is. I ask the counter and they don’t answer. If I had known it would be like this, I would have asked when we left Niflheim.”

“What if it goes over?”

“We’ll have to convince him to come back.”

“There’s no room for me to come back.”

“That’s… what would happen. Anyway, I don’t like it. Fighting with Aaron brother.”

Jenna sighed heavily.

It was a sad face that I hadn’t seen in a while. When I laughed, Jenna patted me on the shoulder, telling me not to make fun of her.

‘anyway.’

I’ll have to talk to him myself.

as soon as possible.

The meeting started with all the party members from the event party that evening.

“There are a total of three special events for this festival. One-on-one individual competition, three-on-three team competition, and random event. You have to win all three events to get first place.”

I spoke.

“The important thing is, it’s difficult for the number of people who participated in one event to challenge other events.”

The problem was time.

Individual and group exhibitions are held simultaneously. Therefore, the trick of having the winner of the individual event participate in the team event was blocked from the beginning.

“One person for the individual event. Three people for the team event. And one person will be needed for the remaining one event. That is, the number of people must be divided in advance.”

“I’ve heard about that. Haven’t the members already been decided?”

“okay.”

The members who will go to the individual and group exhibitions were pre-arranged.

“The group exhibition is Kishasha, Edith, and Jenna.”

“I have an individual exhibition.”

“Can you win?”

Belquist laughed silently.

Originally, I was going to participate in the individual event, but…

‘If I don’t know which event will be played.’

I’d better go out.

As a result, Belquist participated in the individual event.

“Everyone has to win. If even one fails, the 5-star summoning ticket will be difficult.”

“Nippleheim will also come out.”

“We have to win. Aren’t you confident?”

“That’s what…”

Jenna twisted her hair.

don’t say you’re not confident

“Nippleheim or Niflheim Grandpa, if it comes out, all of them are good. Can you do it?”

“I’ll try.”

“Okay. Go to bed early today. I’ll be busy tomorrow.”

The meeting is over.

I forcibly sent the members who said they would do preparation training back to the room.

It is better to take care of your condition than to stay up all night trying to achieve harmony. Everyone went into bed despite expressing dissatisfaction with my words.

“Your brother should go to sleep too.”

“okay.”

Of course I have no idea yet.

As I participated in an unknown event, I had to devise a strategy according to the number of cases.

Staying up all night is familiar. It won’t bother you in any way. I was in the living room, with the nightstand on, engrossed in formulating a strategy.

By the time the star that was shining outside the window was getting dark.

smart. A knock was heard on the porch.

what.

It was deep in the morning.

I put my paper and pen in a drawer and went out to the front door.

He opened the door with his left hand on the dagger case. To be able to respond to surprise at any time.

“Who are you?”

An unexpected person was waiting outside the door.

He looked at my complexion and lowered his head.

“I’m sorry if you were sleeping. Later…”

“No, I wasn’t sleeping. Come in.”

“Go, thank you.”

I opened the door and Aaron came in.

Aaron looked at me and the floor alternately and shook his head.

“What are you doing? Standing blankly.”

“Oh yes!”

Aaron hurriedly walked into the living room.

I put two glasses of water on the table and sat across from Aaron.

“The other members…”

“They’re asleep. It’s late.”

“I-I’m really sorry. I only have time right now…”

“It’s okay.”

I drank water.

“It’s been a while. How are you?”

“Yes, I’m doing well. I’m relieved that my older brother, Miss Jenna, and Sister Edith are all safe.”

“That’s right. Do we look like we’re going to die easily?”

I laughed.

Iolka… chose not to comment.

It would be better to cover it as much as possible.

I looked at Aaron.

Looking closer, he is clumsily wearing a wrinkled uniform.

There was quite a difference from the other Niflheim members who wore stiffly ironed clothes. His shoulders were hunched over and his hands were tightly wrapped in white bandages. Calluses and blood scabs could be seen through the bandages.

‘It seems to be the same.’

Even that ignorant training method.

“How did you know we were here?”

“Master told me. I heard that my brother would come here.”

Muden.

I drank another glass of water.

After that, the silence continued, and Aaron opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind.

“Let me tell you first…”

“Yes.”

” I didn’t change to Niflheim.”

That’s right.

Due to Aaron’s personality, there was no

way he would change . “Then

why did you come here?

”

.I emptied the water cup to the end.

“Hyung, I’m going to participate in this tournament as a member of Niflheim.”

“The competition must have been fierce. Well done.”

“No, rather than competition, should I say parachute?”

Aaron lowered his head.

Maybe that’s why the trainees in Niflheim were cold towards him.

Seeing that the uniform didn’t fit him, it seemed like it was decided abruptly. But there is no such thing as a parachute in Niflheim. If you do not have the right skills, you are not given a chance.

“Is the training going well?”

“Every day seems like hell. In fact, it still is.”

Aaron scratched his cheek.

You can tell by looking at his hands that he is rolling hard.

“Yeah, I’m following somehow.”

“Why aren’t you answering? They sent it at best.”

“Sorry.”

I laughed and drank the water.

Now let’s get down to business.

“Yes. why did you come I am Taoni, and you are Niflheim. Isn’t that what you want to see at the competition? It would still be a long way to come back.”

“It can’t be. I just… just wanted to tell you my decision.”

“Decision?”

Aaron took a deep breath.

It seems he has something important to say. “Brother,

I ‘m competing in the individual event in this event.”

He looked down at his wrapped hands,

“If I win a private tournament…”

He clasped his hands,

“I’m thinking of going back to Taoni.”
