Despite the sudden switch to pursuit mode, nothing particularly different seemed to happen. Maria looked like any other person, and I glanced briefly above her head.
Saint of Luenhart Kingdom
Affinity: 100
Unlike Klaus and Illei, Maria’s name tag was blue, indicating she had not yet awakened. Her basic affinity was not bad…
[SYSTEM] ‘s affinity has increased by +50. (Affinity: 150)…And just as I thought that, Maria’s affinity level increased.
“I’m so sorry. Are you alright?”
Kind Maria apologized, even though it wasn’t her fault.
“No, it’s my fault for not looking where I was going. I’m the one who should apologize…”
As I absentmindedly picked up Maria’s books from the ground and apologized.
[SYSTEM] You have rescued from danger.Eh?
Just picking up books counts as rescuing from danger? Then am I in danger for causing her books to drop?
[Quest in Progress]Stunned, I stared at the quest progress notification.
“Thank you.”
Maria blushed shyly and expressed her gratitude.
[SYSTEM] ‘s affinity has increased by +50. (Affinity: 200)As another system message popped up, I replied in a bewildered tone.
“…You’re welcome.”
And as soon as I said that, yet another system message arrived.
[SYSTEM] ‘s affinity has increased by +20. (Affinity: 220)“…”
Affinity, which was so hard to raise during Klaus’s quest, was now increasing too easily.
‘Is this something to be happy about…?’
Just then, Maria cautiously called out to me.
“Excuse me, brave hero.”
‘Brave hero?’
That title made my face stiffen because it was originally the nickname Maria used for Hezhen in the original work!
Of course, my current appearance in pants and a hood, and with a sword at my waist, looked like an adventurer, so it wasn’t strange for Maria to call me that.
“May I ask for your help?”
Maria asked, her dark blue hair swaying gently. Her pure and lovely demeanor made it difficult for anyone to refuse her request.
“Help with… what?”
“Could you check the time on the clock tower for me? It’s hard to see from here because of the crowd.”
Maria pointed towards the clock tower.
Even her request was incredibly simple. I could check the time easily by just standing on tiptoes from where I was.
Chirp! Chirp!
“Come on, what are you waiting for? Help her!”
Pia urged me, but I hesitated, unable to nod immediately. The scenario preview of Maria and me laughing and running through a flower field, with colorful hearts blooming in the background, kept flashing in my mind.
And the part where Maria and I looked deeply into each other’s eyes…
‘No way!’
A strong internal alarm sounded in my head. I knew I had to complete the quest, but I was still hesitating.
“What’s the matter?”
Just then, Klaus returned with the horses and gallantly assisted Maria.
“Only 5 minutes until noon.”
[SYSTEM] You have rescued from danger. [Quest in Progress]‘I didn’t even do anything…!’
My eyes widened in surprise, then I realized the reason.
‘Ah, the companion slot…’
I had re-registered Klaus as a companion immediately after the week’s cooldown since the last time I unregistered him in the Enchanted Forest.
The sudden transition to pursuit mode left me confused, but there seemed to be no apparent change. Maria looked just like anyone else, and I glanced briefly at the space above her head.
Saint of Luenhart Kingdom
Affinity: 100
Unlike Klaus and Illei, who had not yet awakened, Maria’s name tag was blue. Her basic affinity was decent…
[SYSTEM] ‘s affinity has increased by +100. (Affinity: 320) [SYSTEM] is now in an interested state towards you.“Thank you so much, brave hero. May I ask your name?”
Maria inquired.
“…The one who helped you just now was him, not me.”
I pointed towards Klaus in response but Maria, not understanding my words, continued to look at me with bright, eager eyes. It wasn’t just her; Klaus seemed not to hear my words, and only Anselot frowned slightly at me.
‘What’s going on?’
As I stood there, unable to hide my confusion.
Chirp! Chirp!
“Hehe, Pia adjusted the system for you!”
“System adjustment…?”
“Yes! Pia made it so that people recognize Klaus’s actions as if you had done them!”
I looked at Pia, who was proudly explaining, with sad eyes.
‘Pia, you didn’t have to go to such lengths…’
Chirp! Chirp!
And with Pia’s chirping, I was presented with choices.
[Your target is curious about you.(Pin against the wall and say assertively) You want to know my name?
(Gently lift ‘s chin and seductively ask) If I tell you my name, what will you do for me?
(Kiss ‘s hand with a mischievous smile and say) I am Luibel Ajeister, miss.]
‘Damn it…’
My face soured as I read the options. They were blatantly flirtatious!
And so horribly cheesy!
To be recognized as a pursuit target meant this… But more importantly…
‘How could I do such a thing!’
