I Became the Academy’s Pink Airhead

I lost my memories of my past life. To the point where I didn’t even realize I had lost them.

I realized this fact while talking with Urd, who felt something was off. Even memories I should obviously know from my past life were gone.

“…”

‘I’ still exist as Clara now, but the existence of ‘Kang Jinsu’ that formed the foundation of my personality is disappearing.

‘To be precise, it’s already gone.’

With no continuity of body or memories now.

It’s fair to say the existence of ‘Kang Jinsu’ has almost completely vanished.

There were many parts I could guess.

Unlike the prophet whose body came along, I clung parasitically to the empty space Urd bounced out of. Moreover, I was so heavily influenced that even my way of speaking and tastes changed.

Is that all?

The vaguely remaining soul of a girl.

And the soul of a man that was the core.

I did all sorts of unreasonable things, alternating between the two cores.

‘I thought it was great that the D drive capacity wasn’t decreasing, but was I actually using up the C drive capacity from the start?’

This is why you need to carefully check where you’re installing the OS.

On top of that, what drove the final nail in the coffin was accepting the path as [Saintess of Sacrifice]…

Thanks to that I awakened all kinds of cheat skills.

But it seems there was indeed a price for such great abilities.

“I see—☆”

To put it simply…

Now that I’ve used up the ‘Kang Jinsu’ fuel tank due to fate.

In terms of composition ratio, my essence is now closer to ‘Clara’.

‘If it’s 70% orange juice and 30% water, it’s just watered-down orange juice.’

Results of the World Tree’s composition test.

【Beep, it’s female.】

Oh my—☆

I became female before even getting TS’d and seeing a convenience store part-timer blush. Now I could totally do VTuber livestream donations.

I smacked my head.

According to Just Big Tree’s female selection criteria, the current me has received the result of being just a girl who peeked at ‘Kang Jinsu’s’ memories.

Now that the captain has let go of the controls.

It’s like the co-pilot holding on while remembering the captain’s driving skills.

It was irregular to begin with for a captain and co-pilot to be riding inside one person’s personality. But thanks to that, I didn’t completely lose my soul and collapse.

I get it☆

‘The self changes more easily than expected.’

Well…

Don’t they say even people with their original bodies change into different personalities if they lose their memories?

This is a sufficiently understandable level.

“I see☆ But it’s fortunate. The troublesome priests were dealt with in advance, and all the juniors have grown enough to do well on their own now—☆”

“…”

“The prophet… was someone unpredictable from the start. Yes♪ I’m glad everything was prepared in advance—☆”

“…”

I’m glad I gave Kara the flagpole finding mission quickly.

If pink airhead-like dementia set in and the useful walkthrough disappeared… Now I’d just be a lustful pink airhead who can only flirt at night♪

‘Compared to the abilities gained, it’s a cheap price.’

I could accept it.

I gained powers that were too generous.

This level of price wasn’t unfair.

‘As long as I don’t forget about the seniors, juniors, and academy city…’

I’ll move forward somehow.

That’s how I’ve walked forward until now.

‘But does this disappear memories every time it’s used?’

It would be a big problem if I suddenly lost my memories and became a silly pink airhead going Durr☆ right after moving with [Bifrost].

…

That’s a bit worrying.

I should learn how to wear diapers from Senior Verdandi.

As I was nodding and accepting this-

“…”

Urd uncharacteristically clutched the hem of her fluttery dress and made a tearful face. She gripped it so tightly it was full of wrinkles.

She was pressing her lips together so hard they might tear, so I spoke to her gently. It would be a shame to ruin those moist, fine lips.

“Are you feeling sorry—☆”

“…”

Urd nodded with difficulty.

“…Yes. Because of me, you came to this world. And probably… because of me, the prophet came to this world.”

Me, who entered the empty Clara’s place.

The prophet who fell into the distant past.

Neither of us existed in the original timeline Urd experienced. So she probably feels like it’s her fault for unnecessarily complicating things.

Well, I guess she’s feeling guilty about that sort of thing.

‘Ah… I can sense it with pink airhead senses.’

This was a gloomy atmosphere where we’d dig into the ground saying ‘It’s my fault’ to each other for 10 pages in the book version. If it were a manga, there’d be just dialogue scenes for 2 whole episodes.

A protagonist losing their memories.

And a companion who is the only one to realize their crisis.

If I awkwardly matched words here, it would be the timing to resolve to sacrifice with a sad expression.

-It’s my fault… I’ll sacrifice myself (sniffle)

-Ah, sonna bakana…!

Is this the flow of planting a death flag like that and then gloriously perishing in the final boss battle?

Hmph, I know it all.

Don’t underestimate my otaku skills—☆

So I covered my ears and went ‘Lalalala’.

“I don’t know, I don’t know—☆”

“Clara…?”

“What’s important is what we’ll do from now on! After graduating, I want to live as a rich madam doing naughty things with Hilde until our hips wear out and being lovey-dovey—! I want to throw my weight around too! Sometimes when I’m bored I’ll write novels! Being a rich unemployed person is the best—☆ I’ll fix Red Hare and ride it all over!”

“…”

Sudden wish open time.

Urd’s expression froze in bewilderment.

Looking at that face, I said:

“…So I’m okay even if my past life memories disappear. If this heart remains, I’m Clara.”

“Clara.”

Hearing those words, I pressed my thumb into my chest and said:

“That’s right—☆ I’m this pink airhead who always appears like a dog with spirals – Miss Clara.”

An expression that should have a ‘Ta-da!’ sound effect. Honestly, my boob that got poked hurt a bit from exaggerating the finger movement so dramatically, but I didn’t show it.

Because a man cries with his chest.

-Sob sob… My chest hurts so much. I want to see Grandpa Hua Tuo.

The Jinsu filter faintly remaining inside responded.

Whoa whoa.

Stop crying, little Jinsu inside me☆

If a man cries too often his willy falls off—☆

…Like mine.

“…”

“…”

Urd still spoke with a gloomy face.

“…No matter what, I never said I was dog-like☆”

“Then even if my memories are erased, I’m still ‘me’, right?”

“…!”

Urd’s eyes widened.

She seemed to be struck at the core by my words.

Refutation complete.

Now for question time.

“What do you want to do? You didn’t call me for something happening, did you—☆”

“I… still want to watch over and protect the academy city. So…”

“…You wanted to tell me about the anomaly of people erased by the World Tree appearing?”

“…Yes. But it’s a bit earlier than the time I saw.”

Urd spoke weakly. She seemed to think she wasn’t much help until the end.

‘She’s helped us plenty though.’

Urd was no longer the useless senior Clara from the story.

She was a proper goddess helping us.

In the end, she too had changed in her own way.

“Okay~☆ Let’s definitely protect the academy city and go see the happy ending—☆ You’ll watch over us, right?”

Urd nodded with moist eyes.

“Yes! Of course—☆”

“High five!”

Clap—!

The palms of the two pink airheads met cheerfully, making a refreshing sound. But my insides weren’t so refreshing.

…

Just as we changed.

The prophet must have also changed, trapped by obsession and delusion.

‘In the end, the echo reverberates.’

The phenomenon that appears just before the ‘dragon’ belonging to the abyss and chaos awakens. It was the phenomenon of the world full of order shaking.

The World Tree twists unstably.

Life and death.

Past and present.

The boundaries between existence and non-existence crumble.

This is called the echo.

It was a phenomenon of something no longer in this world wandering around imitating forms. It speaks with the voices of those erased by fate, unintentionally spilling them to passersby.

The echo was reverberating in the foggy plains.

‘We blocked the priests’ approach to the World Tree like that. But in the end it happens inevitably.’

I clenched my fist.

Everything was already unfolding.

‘The echo phenomenon won’t directly cause harm, but if the World Tree has a seizure and starts excluding more students from fate, it’ll be a headache.’

I need to go to the echoing plains and meet Astrid.

That compassionate one… won’t uselessly antagonize the echo phenomenon and waste her strength. Anyway, even if you try to get rid of it, it’s a phenomenon that appears again in the same form.

Truly a ghost version zombie.

The infection spreads by telling information that could make the World Tree have a seizure.

‘Astrid will block people from coming to the foggy plains.’

And I need to tell Hilde that the dragon’s awakening has begun.

“…”

I must stop him.

‘Fortunately… everything was prepared in advance.’

Fortunately you were trapped by prejudice and didn’t see me properly.

Because.

Due to that choice… you will inevitably die by my hand.

That is the fate we decided.

As long as I remain myself, it will surely come to pass.

###

My heart pounds loudly.

My suit is soaked with unpleasant sweat.

I feel nauseous, like I’m going to throw up.

‘No… Did I already throw up?’

I’m not sure.

‘Damn bastards. Did they throw labor laws to the dogs?’

My head throbs after working overnight for a week straight.

‘They tell me to just change clothes and shower at home. Fuck, if you’re going to do that just let me go home properly.’

I didn’t want to go to a sauna and wash up with my own money when I’d have to come back to work anyway. So I was heading to my studio apartment.

My eyelids are heavy.

So I closed my eyes.

“Uh oh…”

At that moment.

My body staggers and falls.

A floating sensation like my navel is being pulled.

I hear the sound of a car approaching.

Vrooom—

What’s rushing towards me collapsed on the road is a huge truck.

Ah.

I’m going to die.

Crunch—

In that split second.

I vividly felt the giant tire pressing into exactly half of my body. Is this what they call your life flashing before your eyes?

‘Of all the fucking life flashes, it has to be the moment I’m split in half…!’

It was shitty.

Like that, my consciousness gradually faded to black.

“…So that’s why the sky is blue.”

Then the pink-haired primitive girl giggles happily.

“Ahaha! Jinsu knows so much!”

“R-Really?”

“But why does the sky color change?”

“Haah…”

I clutched my head.

Then the pink pretty primitive girl tilts her head and comes closer. The dazzling skin visible through her tattered clothes and her bright round eyes were burdensome.

So I hurriedly stopped her.

“…Don’t come. I’ll get attached.”

“Why? Whyy~? I like Jinsu!”

“Yeah, I like you too.”

“Yes! I like Jinsu too—☆ Our baby will like Jinsu too!”

“…You have a baby?”

Oh my.

That’s a bit shocking.

A corner of my heart stung sharply.

But Ymir shook her head at my question.

“No!”

“Then what do you mean?”

“Jinsu and my baby! We held hands so we’ll have one soon, right?”

“…”

I overcame the shame and briefly explained the process of how babies are made. But she didn’t seem to understand.

‘Is there no basic education in this neighborhood?’

A mysterious isekai life.

It had already been 3 months since I started suffering from this pink primitive girl… Ymir’s barrage of questions. I had gotten used to the homey smell of the shabby robe and hut.

This was a primitive isekai where strange beasts were gods.

‘Really unbelievable things are happening.’

I looked at Ymir, who was still tilting her head repeatedly, while clutching my head. Every time she moved her head, her pink straight hair rippled like waves.

“Does Jinsu hurt somewhere?”

“…No.”

Her voice was clear like crystal beads rolling.

“…”

To think such a doll-like pretty girl could be born with just about a 2% difference in genetic combinations. The world really is all about genetic luck.

‘…She’s seriously fucking pretty.’

Even Chosun would say ‘I’m sorry’ and lower her donation window if she saw this girl. Daegyo and Sogyo would switch careers to become VTubers.

I couldn’t help but sigh.

“Haah…”

When I sighed, Ymir put her mouth there and blew.

“Hoo~”

The pink airhead’s breath enters my mouth with a whoosh.

“…?!”

Just before our lips touched…

It was really a moment away from a kiss.

“What are you doing…?!”

“Hehe, Jinsu always just sighs. I was worried your breath might deflate~”

“…”

Ymir smiling brightly with eye smiles.

I was starting to get irritated. It’s one thing to show such a defenseless side once or twice.

So the second time, I really brought my lips close.

But Ymir kept playing the same prank after that.

And before I knew it, the prank became real.

This was the world of .

But the past from thousands of years ago.

I finally realized that fact looking at the ochre cat in front of me.

“…Is this for real.”

“…? What do you mean?”

“It’s just an exclamation.”

“What kind of exclamation?”

“I can’t believe this situation.”

“I see. When one wants to deny the present, it’s common to say ‘Is this for real’…”

This kid is a bit strange…

Twitch—

The golden… honestly ochre-colored □□□□’s cat ears twitched. If I hadn’t seen this little one summon golden weapons, I wouldn’t have recognized her as [Golden Witch].

‘To think this was the game world setting.’

The I knew had a more… otaku-ish, civilized fantasy academy city as the background.

“…”

I looked to the side.

Groooar—!!

A king dragon breathes fire as it passes by, and insect-like dragon tribes fly through the sky.

‘No matter how you look at it, this is just a primitive world.’

So I sighed.

“Haah…”

“Ah?!”

Ymir, who had been chasing butterflies in the distance, came running over and quickly pressed her lips like a bird. A soft sensation and nice fragrance spread.

□□□□ tilted her head and asked:

“Why do you kiss when you sigh?”

It just became a habit.

That’s all there is to it.

“…I don’t know.”

“I don’t know, I don’t know—☆”

“How strange.”

You’re one to talk.

####

“So you’re saying such a place really exists? Where they feed you and give you a place to sleep while you just do what you want?”

“It’s not just doing what you want, it’s focusing on learning.”

“Wow—☆ This place called ‘school’ sounds amazing—! You just get to do what you want—!”

“Ymir, did you not listen to what I said?”

#####

“Jinsu! After we defeat all the beast gods, let’s build our school on this fertile land!”

“A school? Hahaha, that won’t be enough! Let’s fill an entire large city with students!”

“Yes, yes☆ That’s awesome, awesome—!”

“I have a question, what exactly do you mean by a large city in terms of area?”

“About… about… um… this much?”

“Jinsu, Jinsu is smart so tell us~”

“How about a radius of 200 kilometers centered on the World Tree? Because cracks don’t occur within that area…”

######

When everything is over.

Surely we’ll be able to live happily.

I’ll change the fate of [The Three Heroes].

#######

I couldn’t change fate.

Everyone died, except for her and me.

########

“Jin, su…”

“Don’t, don’t speak anymore, Ymir—!! You’re bleeding too much!!”

“Sor, ry for leaving you alone…”

“No!! No—!!!”

“He, he… The school… I hope it really happens. Yeah… For the last miracle… that would be, nice…”

I hope a school city where everyone can live happily will be created.

And I opened my eyes.

“Let’s begin now.”

『Prophet, the salvation you desire…』

The silver woman held up high a pearl filled with dreams. Next to her, a brown-haired girl looked at the wolf tattoo on her arm with a haggard expression.

The Prophet vowed.

“I will save this world.”

With a dream that will never end.
