Chapter 5: Increasing Favorability may solve the crisis

After that, Olivia had a mission on her part, and although she didn't want to kill me, she didn't plan to leave, so she stayed like this. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As one of the elementalists who advocate coexistence with humans, Lucy seems to have another identity in society, so she doesn't stay, but she still stays at my house whenever she has time.

After that, every night I would think about a way to survive, but of course I didn't have a clue.

After dinner and seeing Lucy off, I lay on the bed, and the figure of the strange man came to mind, remembering that it was a strange man who, although old, did not think he was old at all.

"Child, it's been several years since you became the protagonist, how is your life?"

I thought it was just my hallucination, but to my surprise, he took the initiative to talk to me.

Maybe you're dreaming? I don't know, but what I do know is that I have a myriad of whining that I want to say to him, so—

"Of course life is not good!" I knew in my heart that this matter could not be related to him, but I still let out a cry that was almost hoarse.

"Oh!"

As if frightened by my momentum, the old man took a step back.

"This physique is nothing more than being able to avoid the danger brought by one's own misfortune, and the real 'protagonist' is not like this!

Didn't you say that the protagonist can solve any problem?

I'm going to lose my life right now, but it's impossible for me to escape from those guys who can't be explained by common sense!

I'm just thinking about living an ordinary life, why can't you do this with my 'protagonist' physique? ”

I shouted as if I was crying, purely to vent my dissatisfaction.

Whether it's reality or fantasy, I just want to throw all my worries away.

Maybe I'm crazy, but as a person who has been told that he has 14 days to live, he can still be rational, then I'm afraid it's really crazy.

The weirdo in front of me, however, smiled faintly.

"If you can't do it, it's impossible for the protagonist to bring you the life of an ordinary person.

It's better to say that the protagonist himself is contrary to ordinary life, and if you want to show the true power of the protagonist, you must give up ordinary life.

Think about it, kid, if you were the protagonist of a novel, what would you do at such a time?

When you really become the main character, the puzzle in front of you can be solved. ”

With that, the strange man faded away from my eyes.

"Hey, wait-what the hell does it mean to be like the main character, hey!"

"The answer to what the protagonist is needs to be found, but you should think more about what you can do now than the meaning of the protagonist, right?"

Leaving this plausible answer, he disappeared like this.

In my eyes, that weirdo is definitely not a trustworthy person, and whether it was the time I was the protagonist or this time, I always felt that he was talking serious nonsense.

However, this strange man appeared when I was at my most desperate, and even if I thought he was talking nonsense, I couldn't find any other lifeline.

What would I do in this situation if I were the main character?

What can I do?

Obviously, I'm an ordinary person, and I can't do anything at all.

If there's one thing I can do, it's that even in this situation, I'm not willing to give up and struggle with all my might.

What else can I do......

In constant thought, the sun rose on time the next day.

"Wait, Zhao Jie, are you really okay, you suddenly have to ask for leave or something......"

"It's okay, Ling Yu, it's just that something happened at home suddenly." I said to the female classmate on the other side of the phone, who is also my childhood sweetheart, Zhou Lingyu.

"Really, Zhao Jie lives alone, there will be an accident at home at this time-"

"It's not a big deal!" I deliberately raised the volume as if I wanted to perfunctory the topic. "Anyway, the school leave is bothering you, is it okay?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, I hung up the phone without permission.

Speaking of which, I was still going to school on time when I was dying, and I was too nervous before.

At that moment, Olivia rubbed her eyes and walked out of another room.

"What's the matter, Zhao Jie, it's so noisy early in the morning."

"That, Olivia-

Although it was a little abrupt, "I pressed my fast-beating heart and made a smile as much as I could. "Do you want to go on a date?"

Although even I don't think it's reliable, in the novel, if the male protagonist is a waste wood like me, it is impossible to survive without relying on the power of the powerful heroine.

Even in the face of the heroine who can kill him at any time, he can deal with it calmly and treat it gently, in my memory, many male protagonists are by pretending to be stupid and stunned (mistakenly) to influence the enemy, so as to escape the danger.

I don't know if this is in line with what the weirdo said yesterday is "the main character's approach", and I don't know if it will be effective to do what the weirdo says.

However, he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

With that, I smiled as much as I could, looking at Olivia.

For me, it was the first time I had asked a woman out like this, and I, who didn't think I was a handsome guy, prayed in my heart not to be rejected.

As I watched, Olivia's lips slowly opened.

"Zhao Jie-" Leaving her sleepiness behind, she looked at me with a serious look.

"It's disgusting to laugh."

"Huh?"

……

"But then again, dating......"

Olivia munched thoughtfully on the simple sandwich I made.

"Don't you know what dating means?"

"I still know what it means for men and women to hang out together." She glanced at me a little unhappily. "It's just that I'm a little hesitant now because I haven't been there."

It was only when I heard Olivia say this that I suddenly remembered.

After a night of thinking about how to find a way out, it seems that I have forgotten even the most basic questions.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hold my forehead.

"Then again, I heard that you Magus advocate living separately from humans, and you must be resistant to inviting you to date something that involves you in human society, sorry I didn't say it."

Thinking about it, even if it really depends on these two magicians to find a breakthrough to open the situation, it is probably easier to be with Lucy, an elementalist who advocates integrating into the human race.

However, Olivia, who was looking at me, suddenly stared at me as if she was a little angry.

"You must be thinking that it's better to find Lucy if you really want to date."

"Exposed?"

"Of course, don't underestimate how much I hate that woman!"

No, every day when you meet in my house, you are tense, and normal people don't think that you have a good relationship.
