chapter 30
30 – Is it me or sweetie?
“great. I like it.”
I looked at the class schedule in my hand and smiled with satisfaction.
That’s because it’s not a bad setup.
As you can see, the course registration was completed all at once.
It is the basic mindset of college students to drive in from Monday to Wednesday and suck on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Even when I was in college, I secured my break time in this way.
However, although Monday to Wednesday are hard, I need to organize a timetable like this to secure my personal research & equipment production time.
In addition, I put in some honey subjects.
For example, ‘breathing and meditation’ and ‘stress coping and sleep’.
These two subjects are taught by instructors, not professors, and although the grades are low, they are subjects that can be taken comfortably without stress.
This is because the lecture mainly teaches about relaxation methods, so the lecture content or assignments are not that tight.
But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t help me.
It may not seem like a big deal at first glance, but rest and recovery are as important as training and training.
In fact, when I took that lecture in the game, my character’s stamina rose by 30%, and the speed of physical recovery and mana recovery increased by 35%, so it was rather better than the core subjects taught by some professors.
“Hmm, this is finished.”
Anyway, the lecture schedule seems to have been roughly finalized, so now it’s time to do my job.
Using the upcoming weekend to develop the ‘reinforced suit’ previously conceived.
Of course, the framework has been completed to some extent.
Since I withdrew from the 3rd match, I had about 4 days to spare, so the basic suit framework was completed.
To take a car as an example, it is a state where the frame is held and only the motor and wheels are connected.
Just as the engine works and the wheels turn when the engine is started, the mana stones planted throughout the suit also operate when the power button is pressed.
However, just as turning a wheel would be of no use if a person could not control it, the currently developed reinforced suit only received energy and had no specially implemented functions.
“Hmm… Let’s start with the dispenser first.”
So, first of all, I plan to implement the dispenser function that I had in mind in advance.
By actively using the ‘Mana Shield’ spell learned from Elena last time.
Since the ‘plasma lightsaber’ has also completed technical verification, it is expected that a more robust shield can be created by applying a plasma shield based on that technology.
“Inventory”
There was nothing to wait for.
I immediately took out the Creator’s Hammer from my inventory.
kang!
Then, I started to refine the material.
We will implement the dispenser function within this weekend.
***
monday.
It’s finally the first day of class.
For the first period on Monday, ‘the correct way to use mana to strengthen the body’ is scheduled.
“Ugh. It’s a pity that I didn’t have a proper breakfast.”
However, it was a pity that I couldn’t eat the breakfast that James prepared every morning.
After entering the dormitory and living on my own, now I have to eat my own meals.
“Well, it’s a rule, so it can’t be helped.”
However, since he became an academy cadet, this was inevitable.
No matter how much my house (James’ house) is attached to the smithy in the academy, if you are a cadet, you must enter the dormitory and live together.
Technically speaking, the Imperial Academy is also a military educational institution, so cooperation and solidarity are valued above all else.
In other words, following the same rules in the same space is part of education.
It was when I entered the lecture room, brooding over the sad story of skipping breakfast.
Enya, who had been seated first, waved her hand gladly when she found me entering through the door.
“Ed!”
And then she lifts herself up with a bright smile.
Claire was sitting in the seat next to her.
He is staring at me with strange eyes as if observing me.
“Did you sign up for this class too? That’s great!”
At that time, Enya, who had arrived in front of me before I knew it, said in an excited voice.
However, rather than being happy with her, I had a question first.
It was because Enya had never signed up for this class while playing ‘El Pandor Runeterra’.
‘But in this round, why…?’
Enya Cruell.
She did not have to attend Professor Gracia’s lectures.
This is because you have already mastered all mana operations to strengthen your body.
That’s also true, she comes from the Cruell family, a prestigious knight family.
He also has the sword master Gracia, who is called the Sword Saint, as his father.
There was no need to learn these basic steps unless you were a senior in the advanced level of swordsmanship.
But why would you want to take a class you don’t even need to learn?
“Oh, is the seat next to me just empty? Let’s sit down and listen to class together.”
However, following Enya’s words, he pointed to the seat next to her.
Her sword was raised on the seat next to her.
I feel like I’ve reserved a seat for some reason.
The other seats are full, but only that one is empty.
‘Ah, was it like that?’
At such a moment, a certain realization came and a smile was put on.
I could see why she was taking this lecture.
“good. I was worried that there might be no seats, but that worked out.”
“That, so! Uh… that, and… Since we’re in the same class… Shall we sit and listen together from now on? I am good at using my body. Let me know if you have any questions.”
“hahahaha. Then I am grateful.”
It was a very new feeling.
Originally, Enya Cruel is the representative tsundere character of El Pandor Runeterra.
There was a setting that she would not be recognized by anyone for her sword art.
The player also advised her to throw away her sword art, but after being heavily criticized and living in a state of cold war, she was barely able to get close to her while completing some hidden events.
Her character is a clichéd but charming storyline from an enemy to a lover.
‘Only Dere is left.’
However, from the entrance ceremony, when he brought up the topic of baldojae, which was not in the scenario, the tsun-tsun part completely disappeared.
He shows an active interest in me to the extent that he will follow the lectures I have taken and even take my place.
‘Well, that doesn’t mean I can’t be conceited.’
However, as long as the original scenario is wrong, the relationship can deteriorate at any time.
As much as I can already see the side of Enya that I can barely see after a few months of rolling, I also have to work hard so that this relationship can be maintained well.
As much as my sudden action brought forward what would happen in the future, there was always a path to ruin if I made a wrong choice.
“Commoner, will you sit there?”
But then.
A cool voice pierced between me and Enya.
It was Isabella.
She smiled and opened her mouth.
“Actually, I’ve reserved a seat for you too. Also, come 30 minutes early.”
“·······”
“By the way, I didn’t get the seat next to me by accident. I wanted to sit alone with you, so I made an effort.”
Unlike Enya, Isabella openly reveals her intentions and tries to seduce me.
As a result, the fight between Enya and Isabella began again.
The bloody eyes of the two women collided in the air and sparks seemed to fly.
“Isabella. Since the last time, what kind of mindset are you putting a hindrance between me and Ed? I told Ed first. Ed will sit next to me.”
“Well? To say that, he said it happened that the seat next to him happened. Doesn’t it matter if someone else sits down? Unlike you, I came 30 minutes early and took a seat. To sit down with Ed alone.”
“·····under. you’ve been like that for a long time Are you doing it on purpose again? To get on my nerves.”
“Puff. No way. I just like that commoner.”
“······Last time he said no. You said it was just a joke.”
“Well, originally, the mind goes back and forth. I like it now.”
There was no sign of backing down.
Enya, who has always been pushed by Isabella’s words, seems to be trying hard not to be pushed this time.
Then Isabella turned to me and said.
“Commoner, you just choose. it’s me? Is it Enya?”
“…”
“… Whoa. Ed. There’s nothing good about hanging out with him. They play with people like toys and throw them away.”
“No, this commoner is different. He has the same past as me.”
“···what? Like Edgar? what does that mean-“
“Anyway, commoner. you choose Enya, is it me? If I’m not chosen, I’ll cleanly admit it and step down.”
. . . I got into trouble.
Why did this ordeal come from the beginning of the game?
This is a pattern I’ve never seen before.
I took turns looking at the two women staring at me.
Enya’s green eyes looking at me with earnest eyes, and Isabella’s self-eyes drawing lines as if enjoying the situation I’m in.
After making my decision, I opened my mouth.
“I-”
