Academy Squinting, but not dark-Episode 52
Episode 52
52fury. Non-gong peddler(1)
The morning after returning from the anthill.
“ha…….”
As I looked at the status window, sighs kept coming out of my mouth..
Why??
This is because the results of gambling on potential seemed promising..
‘It wasn't a dream.’
[Super sense S]
Yes. 100pts gained due to unexpected explosion.
As soon as I returned to the dorm last night, I immediately poured points into my potential stats and tried gambling..
And the result was that [extra sense].
‘Since there is an imitation of God, there is no need for any attack skills. So he wanted a secondary skill.…….’
[[Extra sense] is a kind of presence detection skill..
A passive skill that identifies people hiding nearby and also acts as a trap detection..
It's not bad. Because it is a skill that allows you to escape the threat of assassination..
but.
‘It's a skill that can't even be said to be good.!’
[Holy Power], which allows you to manipulate divine power, [Inflammation], which applies 5 times the damage of flame-type skills, [Runaway], which does not reduce stamina for a certain period of time, etc..
There were various skills in this game, and there were skills that could be said to be fraudulent..
But [extra senses]! [Cleaning] followed by [Extra senses]!
“ha…….”
I couldn't help but sigh.
In other words, to summarize the [Extra-Sense] skill in one line:.
‘You could say it's an ambiguous skill..
I put on my school uniform and went outside..
After all, you have to eat when you feel weak..
It was time to leave the dormitory and take a step forward..
“what. Are you feeling a little down today? What's going on?”
It was Luna.
Something is going on. But before that, one thing.
“Hehe, are you waiting for me??”
“me you? That can't be possible. I was on my way to get breakfast and I just ran into you by chance..”
“……By chance?”
One thing here.
I need to point out one of Annwood Academy’s principles..
-There is no discrimination in rice.
Anyone can eat as much as they want.
Restaurants should be fair places for everyone, regardless of gender or age..
And this also applies to the ‘location’ of the restaurant..
What do you mean??
Dormitory for teachers, dormitory for male students, dormitory for female students.
This means that the distance between those three places and the restaurant is the same..
Centered around the cafeteria, the male and female dormitories are located on completely opposite sides..
However, Luna said that they met ‘by chance’..
This is nonsense..
‘How long have you been waiting??’
6 o'clock in the morning? 7 o'clock?
Or was he watching me all night??
When my thoughts reached that point, I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over my body..
“What are you doing? I have to go eat.”
“……yes.”
But there was nothing I could do.
Because I was the one who chose Luna as my colleague.
And it wasn't like there was no solution..
‘Just need to recruit more colleagues.’
A colleague who will become Luna's friend.
As your party becomes stronger, you will be able to reduce its obsession with you a bit..
By the way, I have not used the skill level up points received as a quest reward yet..
This is because it is most efficient to use it when upgrading A-level skills to S-level..
‘You can get from F to A with effort.’
But S class is not like that..
Possession of linked skills, suitability, and even interaction with specific NPCs.
S-level skills cannot be obtained through simple effort..
This is where the fraudulent value of skill grade up points is revealed..
Skill grade up points can be used to grow skills even without the above conditions..
This means that A-level skills can be promoted to S-level skills..
‘So I have no choice but to save it.’
In the first place, among the skills I have now, the ones that are not S-level are [Ominous Energy], [Open Eyes], [Super Regeneration], and [Space Control]].
Except for the ominous vibes, everything is grade F..
If you use your skill level up points for something like that, it will be a huge loss..
In particular, skills like [Open Eyes].
“Oh, I can just sit here. bon appetit.”
Luna sat down and smiled..
But I couldn't laugh. Because something was strange..
“Miss Luna, I have one question..”
“What?”
“……Why are you sitting next to me??”
An ordinary table that can seat four people.
If there are two people, they usually sit facing each other..
But Luna was sitting next to me..
“It's far away.”
“……It's far away?”
“huh. There's at least two steps difference over there.?”
Jesus Christ. Oh my god.
I guess it wasn't a joke when I said I wouldn't fall even a single step away from you.?
‘……I'm in big trouble.’
Isn’t this a real stalker??
My colleague is a stalker. It was not good in many ways.
Gossip and gossip-.
“It's a good time.”
“I'm so into it, I'm so into it.”
“It's romantic. There is proof right there that love can overcome appearances..”
“It doesn't look like that, but it must be huge(?)!”
……I don't know what the big deal is, but anyway..
Although the children's difficulties were a problem, the biggest problem was the problem of restricted activities..
It's okay for now, but after Chapter 1, there are more places to go..
There are places where you have to move secretly, and you take the troublemaker Luna with you.?
It was obvious that an accident would happen.
Beep beep beep!
“Unhealthy dating of the opposite sex is grounds for penalty points... … huh?”
Rodelin is still busy teaching students today..
She tilted her head as she approached us..
He seemed to have noticed something was different from usual..
“Hehe, hello, senior..”
“Yes, I heard there was an accident. Mr. Zero and Ms. Luna were not on the injured list. thank god.”
“Do you see it that way? I'm not safe at all.”
“What does that mean? Did you get hurt somewhere??”
“Hehe, there's one thing more scary than a demonic beast..”
A demonic beast named Luna.
He has the characteristic of biting people when he is in a bad mood..
Yeah, like right now..
“……It hurts, Miss Luna..”
“It’s natural because I bit you because it hurts..”
Luna bit my head once and started eating again..
Rodelin chuckled..
“It seems closer today than before. Maybe it's because we experienced combat together? That's what comrades are like. Very nice to see.”
In Rodelin's eyes, they seemed like close comrades who had overcome death together..
It won't work. I should at least cheer up Rodelin by teasing her..
“Hehe, senior. There was one thing I was curious about before..”
“um, something?”
“They say that unhealthy dating of the opposite sex is grounds for penalty points... … So what happens in a healthy relationship with the opposite sex??”
“Of course it's okay. We study together, encourage each other, and move forward. If you get married and have children, you can say that you are a true example of an imperial citizen who contributed to the development of the empire..”
To even think about the future of the empire. This is a Rodelin-like answer..
Now, let’s ask the real question..
“Hehe, then what is the standard for distinguishing between wholesome and unhealthy??”
“hmm?”
“It's okay to hold hands or hug, right? But as you said, if you want to have a child, that alone won't be enough.…….”
“Well, that's…….”
huh? How far is this possible??
What kind of behavior does it mean to be unhealthy??
I'll tell you in advance for fear of misunderstanding, but it's just pure curiosity..
It's the pure curiosity of a sprout who just entered the academy..
pop!
There was a sound like something exploding in Rodelin's head, and then her face turned bright red..
Oh, I think I remembered something..
Between wholesome and unhealthy. or the end of unhealthy behavior.
What does Rodelin think is the end(?) of unwholesomeness?.
I was genuinely curious..
For your information, in my opinion, the end of unhealthy behavior is holding hands..
People who aren't even nineteen and who don't even have blood on their heads are arrogantly dating.…….
“Burr, penalty point!”
“yes?”
“Unhealthy thoughts are worth a penalty point!!”
Rodelin took out her notebook and immediately gave her 1 penalty point..
Then it disappeared into the distance..
what. Why do you penalize me when you're the one who had unhealthy thoughts??
I was sincerely doubtful..
“Tsk tsk, change that perverted personality. If you weren't my friend, I would have scolded you..”
Luna, isn’t it you who is the pervert, not me??
'Cause no one calls this kind of relationship a friendship.
‘Phew… … Still, I feel a little better..’
The failure of the potential gamble, Luna’s obsession, and even the children’s misunderstandings..
Stress could not help but build up..
“Let's go get more food.”
“I'm full?”
“You promised not to fall even one step. Follow.”
“Hehe, words spoken unilaterally are usually not called promises.…….”
But I had no choice but to follow Luna..
It's not because I bit my ear. It's because I'm nice.
“Did something like that happen? Take note of this.”
“Yes, senior. and…….”
Doran Doran.
Rodelin, Alex, and Raimon were seen having a friendly conversation..
Well, honestly, I’m jealous. Being with normal kids like that?.
Tduduk-.
It was then. A strange sound rose from my throat..
Because Luna broke my neck and made me look towards her..
“Don't look at him, look at me.”
If you look at the lines alone, they are so romantic that your hands will cringe..
But if you know the reality, it's not like that at all..
‘Did you think you were seeing Raymon?.’
Because Luna is obsessed with friends..
Raymon, who has the title of best friend, must be a thorn in your side..
“Oh my, my. I just heard it?”
“It's hot too.”
“Oh my, they say love exists even during war. Why are there so many couples since yesterday??”
ha.
It was a morning where a snowball called misunderstanding continued to grow..
* * *
“Don't even look that way.”
Right before morning class.
This is what Luna, sitting on the right, said.
For reference, there was Raimon on the other side that Luna mentioned..
‘Anyway, no one can see it except you.?’
Something has been wrong with my neck since Luna broke it..
My neck was fixed at a 90 degree angle to the right..
‘I tried to get Luna's help, but…….’
It seemed like I was very satisfied with the way I always looked at myself..
Since there was no solution, I had no choice but to come to class in this state..
“What will the evaluation be like??”
“Of course, Teron will receive a perfect score and a store.!”
“Haven't you seen Yuridia's magic? They should have seen me slaughter five at once.!”
“Yuridia will receive the most from the store.!”
The classroom was busier than usual.
Time to evaluate what happened yesterday.
Because there will be time for non-public work..
‘Time to reward and punish based on merit.’
Peddler's work is not only for emperors and nobles..
It was also in the academy class..
Give a store to a child who did well.
Penalty points are given to children who do not perform well..
This is Annwood Academy's Distinguished Service Award.!
‘Even in the game, I had this moment after every battle..’
Of course, all you get is a store and penalty points..
Isn’t the compensation too salty??
Not like that. In “Academy Heroes,” stores and penalty points play quite important roles..
‘Because the midterm and final exams are combined with scores,.’
If you get excellent grades in each test, you will receive a title..
It's the same title as the one I currently hold, [He who slain the devil with a mop]..
‘The problem is that the opposite is also true..’
If you do not get excellent grades on the test, you may receive a title that reduces your stats..
In other words, today's non-public performance event was quite an important time for me..
“Karon is coming! Everyone take a seat!”
“……already came.”
“Hehehe!”
Charon came in, kicking the buttocks of the boy who was watching..
As he scanned the classroom, his gaze fell on me..
“Zero, where on earth are you looking??”
That's right.
The body is clearly facing towards you, but all you can see is Luna's face..
“Hehe, I was attacked by a ferocious beast..”
“…….”
Tdu-duk - Tdu-duk-.
Charon broke my neck this way and that..
Oh, it moves..
Only then could I see Charon's face..
“Sheesh!”
Luna clicked her tongue as if it was a waste..
Well, I've decided. I need to recruit a new colleague..
A very strong person who can survive even if his neck is broken instead of me..
“Let me start by saying thank you for your hard work. No matter what the situation, surviving is a great thing..”
Charon returns to the teacher's desk.
he said as he faced us.
“Well, from now on… … Let's start the evaluation.”
