I’ll Live My Second Life! - Chapter 120

Chapter 120

The next morning in the dining room, Ius was shocked by the new news . Instead of receiving the right to communicate with the maidservant girls, it became the right to communicate with Heath . The man who steered the conversation in Heath’s favor has been caught…

(Silly us, we didn’t tell you what happened last night . And yet it’s too soon…)

In the dining room, the boys and Heath were facing each other in a tentative atmosphere . Gormus is watching them without concern for himself, while Lemier, Slad and Gies are looking on in horror . While the boys stood up in a group and showed their indignation, Heath was sitting in a chair facing them with a smile on his face .

“You’re dirty, Heath! Not only did you use Prefect’s power, I didn’t expect you to use the Alucia-chan connection to make him betray his friends!”

“Yes, yes, yes! It’s not manly!”

“It’s not fair, no matter how close you are to the girls in the Chamber of Deputies!”

“I want to correspond with a girl, too!”

For some reason, the rage of the screaming boys ran in the other direction in the middle of the day . Regardless, Heath took a slow sip of his post-dinner tea, then opened his mouth

“Dirty? It certainly could be . ”

Heath surprisingly affirmed it . The boys’ were surprised . He had thought that they would be lazy and deceitful again . However, Heath smiled with an easy smile, looked straight at the boys and said .

“But, isn’t it true what I had him tell you? Your argument . My way of doing things is … um, unmanly, right?”

It was Heath’s speech, complete with nodding heads, gestures, and clearly audible words .

“If that’s true,” he said,

“Then, there is not a shred of manliness in what you’re trying to do . You just don’t want me to win, and that’s the only reason you’re trying to score points with your opponents . Is that acceptable as the way you guys claim to be ranked in terms of manliness?”

“Ggh… . . ”

It was true that the apprentice knight boys had been convinced by the words said yesterday . It was just that those were the words of a spy sent by Heath .

“If I’m not manly enough to win because I’m not manly enough to win, then you guys should fight like men and win . If you think that I don’t deserve to win because I’m not a man, you should fight like a man and win . Or can’t you fight like a man?”

The boys were easily incited by Heath’s provocative speech .

“All right, damn it!”

“I’m going to fight like a man!”

“If you lose, just remember that!”

Ius muttered as he looked at the boys who had responded loudly to him .

”We’ve been hit…”

To which Lutus asked back .

“What do you mean…?”

“It was probably Heath himself who gave everyone the information last night . He must have used those five men . There’s a lot of uncertainty in the guiding public opinion from spies . If they fail, Zelius will score a lot of points and he will lose . ”

“So, by deliberately bringing it to light like this, he clarified the structure of the conflict and put himself in the role of the villain to determine his opponent’s position . ”

You need a cause in a fight . Our argument is that Heath’s behavior was unmanly . And when we act unmanly, our fight loses the cause .

Now that we are claiming justice and he has taken the position of the villain, we have no choice but to defeat him in the most manly way possible .

Ius twisted his face in bitterness .

“If it comes to this, exposing the five of us will have little effect on us anymore . ”

“What should I do then…?”

“… . ”

Ius was silent at Lutus’s question .

“You don’t mean to give up! With our precious manhood rankings being overrun by that tyrant!”

“No, I’m not going to give up . I’m not giving up . There’s got to be some way to stop him . ”

“And I’m gonna find out . Will you help me? Lutus . ”

Ius and Lutus . Their serious eyes faced each other .

Lutus went on laughing .

”Yeah . I’ll stay with you to the end, buddy!”
