145 – 3. The World Only Rest Knows

Sun Culture Festival.
One of Sunrise Academy’s representative events is a large-scale event that lasts for two weeks.
During the event period, real-time broadcasting under the supervision of the Broadcasting Department is conducted in the morning and afternoon, and ends on the eve of the last day when the event is completed.
The basic tendency is similar to the cultural festival unique to Japan.
A cultural festival in which only cadets use their strength to create stalls or create specific shops based on limited funds.
The point of these events is to value the process of unity every moment as the product is being completed, as well as the results.
In the end, academy cadets are new members of society who have yet to get out of the childish mold. To them, the cultural festival is regarded as a kind of social experience.
Cultivate lacking social skills and naturally realize the need for cooperation. Furthermore, as much as he thinks for himself, he indirectly understands the difficulties of management and other self-employed people.
If the product didn’t sell, it makes people want to know why it didn’t sell, and if there are people who sold well, how they could do that.
With what? As a direct reward.
Raise your will by setting high-level items that cannot be obtained simply with money as rewards.
As the last chance, the 3rd graders exert all their know-how to get rewards. 2Nd graders work hard to go beyond such 3rd graders, and 1st graders have to work even harder because they don’t know anything.
In the process, you naturally do not look down on those who choose a path other than the path of an Awakener.
Through this cultural festival, we learn that although it is easy to crush a monster’s head, it is very difficult to rebuild a city trampled by that monster.
Catch competition and unity, lessons and corrections at the same time.
Not everyone will feel it, but if there are people who feel it even a little bit, that’s enough.
Above all, this event was added with the hope that cadets who are tired of harsh academy life would enjoy it.
The last day of the Sun Cultural Festival is exactly that.
The events of each class are also events, but the flower of the cultural festival is the competition that takes place on the last day.
The brilliant match between the graduates of Sunrise Academy, which is held in connection with Gwangilgyo, is so splendid that it became an issue of the year.
Moreover, the event match between graduates and current cadets is also a heart-pounding topic that clearly shows the image of those who have come before and those who will succeed.
Due to the nature of such a cultural festival, it is also an important opportunity for those who do not have a back seat to publicize their strength to the outside world.
Maybe that’s why, this is also the time when a lot of toxic incidents happen.
There was a special rule for the cultural festival that was created to prevent that, and that is the ‘fighting for interests’.
“In a mutually agreed duel, the winner wins everything and the loser loses everything. Once a decision has been made, the student council will never intervene. Keep in mind that if you have denials or objections, they are of no use if you don’t do them beforehand.”
Tak!
At the words of Hong Soo-ah, who hit the blackboard roughly, everyone in Class S was very nervous.
That meant that if you were going to play a trick, do it without getting caught. This, implicitly, was the same as the meaning that the academy would condone to some extent about secret plans and plans.
In a way, it is the same tone as encouraging a crime with confidence, but it is clear that sanctions will be applied if any act of crossing the line is seen even a little bit.
Play with your heart in the legal line. That’s what i want to say
Everyone held their breath at her words. But at the same time, a smirking mouth was also visible. Although they are still new chicks, they are also cadets of the academy.
Based on my experiences so far, I’ve gotten to the point where I can laugh like that even though I’m nervous. Seeing that, Hong Soo-ah smiled and continued her speech.
“Once again, just because it’s a cultural festival doesn’t mean we just have fun. Don’t be conceited just because you’re in Class S, and don’t forget that all of this is part of your training. Be proud, but don’t be swallowed up by pride.”
It’s more than that. After saying that, Hong Soo-ah stepped back from her.
At the same time, Lucia and a woman with a steady feeling stepped forward.
“If you have an opinion, I would appreciate it if you would raise her hand and tell me.”
There was no one who tackled her confidently leading the situation. Everyone knows that they are the class president and vice president of this class.
Of course, even if that wasn’t the case, it was also possible because Hong Soo-ah took the space in her class in an instant.
Lucia was born like that. It was possible to dominate the place simply by her position, regardless of whether someone else set her mood or took over.
Other people dismiss her as being excellent, but from my point of view, her disposition is acquired.
And that’s not simply because she’s good-looking, but because she ‘saw’ this place better than anyone else.
In a word, she pays close attention to herself.
Distinguish between when to go out and when not to. You can naturally know what to do to catch everyone’s attention.
She knows how to catch people’s eyes.
What I admired is that such things are acquired skills based on thorough calculations and observations, not from innate talents.
It must have been a good teacher. When I met her, I had already acquired her skills as if for granted, so I had no idea who taught them.
In the first place, I have no intention of using such a technique that I was impatient to stand out.
Of course, it is possible to use it in reverse to induce attention and then hide in a blind spot, so copying is complete. I’ve been using it for the last test as well, so I’m pretty satisfied with it.
“As expected, is the cafe the most acceptable?”
“I heard from a senior in my second year, but if I go halfway, I get cursed at.”
“Are you not good at all, or are you good at it? Is it one or the other?”
“I also came to visit last year thanks to my family, but the gap between grades was really great.”
“I heard that from the 2nd year, you can work outside, so you can use dungeons to finance your activities?”
“Crazy…How serious are you?”
“Isn’t it because a reward is a reward?”
The cadets, who began exchanging opinions immediately with a buzz, spoke one by one, and the exchange continued, with people adding pros and cons to them.
Among them, the most talked about was, of course, about the potential of the seniors.
Everyone understood that the issue was an issue and that the seniors were sincere as the list of compensations was elaborate, but even so, the answer was nowhere to be seen.
“…The only possibility is to save magic.”
The reason is simple. This is because there is a hand card called the Archmage on this side. Excluding Lily, the ratio of wizards and awakenings of special systems in this class is quite high.
Also, the magic-type Awakener basically has a certain frame for handling mana delicately, so his dexterity is quite excellent.
Based on that, you have to make use of things that can produce various things.
“Then let’s make the main cafe and now think about the side things.”
In the end, what was chosen was one that could make use of its specialty and was passable at the same time. As preparation time and resources are limited, the options available are also narrowed.
It was difficult for 1st year students to go around external dungeons and raise funds like 2nd and 3rd year students, so individual abilities were definitely more important. But overcoming that is also proof of being an Awakener.
In fact, looking at past records, there were many pleasant rebellions by first-year students who beat the second and third years. Of course, the current student council president and vice president were included in the list of first-year students who rebelled.
Now that we’ve reached this point, I’ll have to step out soon. Originally, it was a specification to get involved in troublesome things, but now it is unavoidable.
In that case, it is better to take the initiative and finish it quickly.
At first, I was going to use Comet to quickly help and bring it back, but this time I decided to use Vina.
I plan to train Bina’s skills and at the same time make her familiar with how to use [Artificial summons].
In the case of Bina, since she already has enough power, she needs to increase her accuracy and power by increasing her proficiency rather than becoming stronger through repeated evolution.
I raised my magic and snapped my fingers.
Perfect!
Everyone’s eyes focused on me in the wave of magical energy, and I felt something soft and furry on my shoulder and on the back of my neck.
“Bina.”
“Beep!”
When I called the name of the guy who was still pretending to be a ferret, the guy who correctly grasped my intentions through [Link] Started crying.
“Huh?”
“Wow…”
Then, in an instant, the scenery of the classroom changed into an image in the sea reminiscent of an aquarium I had seen before, and around it the fish-shaped [Artificial Summoned Beast], Now subject to Bina’s skill [Elohim’s Angel], Roamed around. Was
That look was very impressive even to me, so I think I can use this to build a cafe.
“This is…”
“It’s comfortable to think of it as an indistinguishable elaborate illusion. You can do this if you want.”
Perfect!
As I snapped my fingers filled with magical powers again, the scenery of the sea changed into a scenery of the cosmos where the stars twinkled, and it moved again and changed into a night market with a beautiful night view.
As the shapes and colors of the fish changed along with them, a rather dreamy production was possible.
“Of course, it is only an illusion that can be seen to the end, so you will have to make the details yourself.”
It is false. As long as Bina puts her mind to it and I continue to supply her magical power, I can also create an illusion that is sufficiently tangible.
But I don’t have the will to tell you that. I don’t know how many enemies might be hiding here, but it was obvious that the guys who had their eyes on Bina’s competence would bother me.
“Do the rest.”
If you’ve done this, take care of the rest. Don’t bother me
It wasn’t connected by [Link] Like a summoned beast, but perhaps because the time she spent was time, Lucia, who accurately captured her inner meaning, frowned and sighed deeply.
“…This is enough.”
Yeah, that’s fine. Of course it should. I thought I would be sincerely disillusioned if I whined that it was impossible even though I had laid the plate to this extent.
When I pointed her chin at her Lucia so that Bina could see it, it crossed the [Artificial pet] Of the fish from my neck and landed on top of her Lucia’s head.
“Pip!”
“Wow?!”
“Good guard. Because he is the center of illusion.”
After saying that, I got up from my seat. Even after seeing me like that, he only made a sad face, but at the point of not restraining himself, it became clear that Hong Soo-ah was pushing me.
It must have been an instinctive understanding that my skills had improved that much. To be honest, I don’t have time to hang out with this house play.
It is necessary to make the image more solid, and the necessary items must be selected from among the secrets taken from Yashiro.
In addition, we need time to focus on the growth of the elder line summons in earnest.
‘I should start by lightly working on skills.’
Evolution Knowing that it is not just reaching a simple level but fulfilling conditions, isn’t it the owner’s heart to want to fulfill as many conditions as possible?
There will be a lot of rolling in the process, but I believe that they will follow suit because they are all saying that they are doing well.
Or something… I should be able to do it.
Ignoring the dazed expressions of the cadets who still couldn’t grasp the situation, I went out of the classroom.
It is true that I was impatient, but I did not act in a hurry. Inside this academy, there are many dungeons you can go to, and those dungeons don’t run away.
I walked down the hallway with light steps.
