Academy Munchkin Enslaved

29 – You don’t really die

“Now, wait a minute. How about putting the cup down for now?”

Remembering what had happened at the cafe the other day, Ian hurriedly put down the cup from Miya’s hand.

Lorraine also flinched as she hid her face at each of Miya’s hand gestures, probably imprinted with the traumatic experience at the time.

“So, what are you talking about Ian? Where are you going on vacation?”

Miya sat down next to Ian in her seat, her eyes fixed straight on Lorraine.

It was an act that would not have dared to be imagined if it were originally a slave, but the treatment of servants was definitely different now.

Proper working clothes were provided instead of mats that did not even look like clothes unique to slaves, and the slaves’ lodgings were also expanded into lodgings with private rooms, although inferior to dormitories.

Of course, since I was no longer a slave, I could confidently walk around the academy outside of working hours, and I also had the right to be protected from the cadets.

It was reported that a cadet who could not stand the bird and touched such servants was severely punished over the weekend, so few cadets quarreled with the servants.

It could be said that the slaves’ treatment changed in an instant was excessive, but those were the terms of the contract between the princess and Ian in the first place.

The academy side was also cooperative with such improvement, so it even showed punishment of cadets as an example to protect its users early on.

Thanks to that, the royal treasury was gradually becoming more and more expensive, but that was none of the business of Ian and the servants.

In a way, it was a price for arrogance.

Anyway, thanks to the changes made in such a short time, Miya, who works at the cafeteria, is also able to walk around the cafeteria even during her student’s mealtime.

Of course, due to their experience, the servants did not dare to stand out from the cadets yet, but Miya, who discovered Ian, didn’t even care about him and ran out.

“Ah, that… Because Lorraine has high-ranking magic that is passed down only in her family… hahahaha… “

Ian didn’t do anything wrong, but he felt guilty for some reason.

Obviously both Miya and Lorraine were laughing, but the air passing through them was so uncomfortable that it was difficult to breathe.

“Two, have you seen two before?”

“Let’s meet again Ms. Miya. The coffee tasted good. But I don’t really like coffee, so I’d like something a little sweeter next time.”

Lorraine did not have much of her work in her mind at the time.

Of course, if she had thrown coffee in the face of a nobleman, she would have been punished severely, but Lorraine had no intention of doing so.

She had already figured out why Miya acted like that.

And since Miya seemed to be quite precious to her Ian, she didn’t want to hurt her relationship with Ian by touching her.

“Oops. I was worried that I might have given you coffee that was too cold.”

“Me, myat… !”

Conversely, Miya also had no intention of letting her take away her Ian.

She was ashamed of her actions at the time of spilling her coffee, and later worried about her reprisal from her aristocrat, Lorraine.

What she hated more than that was having her Ian stolen by this stray cat.

Miya has already experienced many hardships at a young age.

In order to protect her Ian, she thought of easily overcoming another hardship.

Today, Lorraine’s flowing red hair was disgusting.

“Now, now, calm down… “

“So. Are you going, mister?”

“Are you going, Ian?”

Only Ian, in the middle, felt like dying.

“Okay… “

In fact, it was true that Lorraine’s suggestion made Ian’s taste a little more appealing.

The 6th tier magic already has the ability to complete calculations.

Considering the growth in efficiency of the Acceleration of Acceleration method, if he did not neglect training, he was confident that he would reach the level where he could use 6th tier magic within a few years.

No, maybe I was confident that I could reach it in a much shorter period of time.

It took a much shorter time than expected to reach the 5th tier.

Anyway, now Ian had a strong desire to encounter more high-level magic.

“That… The 7th tier magic circle is not something you can see often… You said it before, Miya? He said he wanted to study more high-ranking magic… “

“Huh.”

“This, profit… “

Lorraine smiled triumphantly, and Miya’s expression twisted.

If we continue like this, Ian will really be taken away by that thief cat.

But it was still fine. What Ian was interested in was not Lorraine, but the 7th tier magic itself.

Miya knew that Ian still did not think very well of Lorraine.

“Yeah, then I want to go too!”

“Uh, huh?”

“Because now we can legally rest during vacation!”

So I forced myself to do it.

I’d rather die than send Ian to Lorraine and stay at the academy alone during vacation.

“Haa… “

Between the two women, Ian grabbed his forehead while chewing on the damp pork cutlet.

*

“Haa… “

All classes ended safely in the afternoon.

To begin with, tomorrow was the final exam, so most of the classes were self-study.

Except for the lunch break, nothing special happened.

In the end, after a long struggle, it was decided that Miya would also go with the Dearheart family during vacation.

Because Miya said that if I didn’t do that, I would leave the academy, so I had no choice.

No matter how important the 7th tier magic is, it hasn’t changed that Miya is the only person in this world who has shown kindness from the beginning.

Fortunately, Lorraine also accepted the condition, and somehow the situation came to an end.

“Vision Arena… It is this way.”

Thanks to that, I was able to adapt to life as a cadet anyway, and there were no cadets who would directly argue with me, except for Ferricus in the morning.

As expected, thanks to the performance he showed during the subjugation, he seems unable to openly ignore me.

There were disapproving glances from all over the place, but none of the cadets directly argued with Ferricus.

Maybe if you punish Pericus, there won’t be any trouble in the future.

Even the few kids who can’t grasp the subject will come to their senses if they see it.

“Hey. Did you think he ran away?”

So we arrived at the arcade arena.

Pericus and his gang had already arrived, and the spectators who had gathered to watch Dalian were also filling the arena.

They have an exam tomorrow and have nothing to do.

“It’s a bit late because I’m not used to it yet. Are you going to start right away?”

In Vision Dalian, you can fight with various conditions on your opponent for victory or defeat.

Now in this Dalian, the condition that the loser becomes a slave of the class.

The form of the arcane contract is similar to the contract the princess and I made before.

Of course, the level is a bit low, so if you want, you can cancel the contract even on the professor ship.

Anyway, it meant sparring with that much weight.

“Yes, come right up. Because it’s itchy, I can’t stand it.”

“Why don’t you give up right now? Even if you regret it later, it will be too late.”

“Keukkeukkeuk. Did you guys hear? See me and abstain. Stop talking nonsense and come up. I will properly train you as a slave.”

Pericus kicked away even the last chance.

I went up to the arena without any hesitation.

“Conditions are as agreed upon in advance. Once the sparring begins, there is no turning back. Do both sides agree?”

Me and Ferricus each sat on chairs covered with all sorts of magic circles.

It was a device that realized the avatars of practitioners with magic in the virtual world.

Once the sparring started, we would lose our minds and engage in sparring with our bodies embodied in a virtual space.

“Yes.”

“Yes. Kkeuk.”

Perhaps it was the exam period, along with a brief guide from the professor, who seemed to be bothered by it, the magic circle imprinted in the arena began to operate.

When I closed my eyes with the feeling that artificial blue mana was scanning my whole body, my body had already moved to a completely different place.

No, the spirit embodied in magic moved to the arena.

“Hey slave. You know what? No matter how much pain you receive here, it has no effect on your actual body.”

“I know.”

“Keukkeuk. Don’t abstain in the middle. Even if I scream in pain, they won’t look at me.”

Pericus just did what I wanted to say instead.

I did not unnecessarily answer his words, and waited for the professor’s voice to announce the start of the sparring.

-Sure. The vision battle begins.

At the same time as the broadcast, Ferricus started to accelerate, and I stood still and watched what he was doing.

“hahahaha!”

Laughter like a third-rate villain.

With him, Pericus finished the calculation and a huge fireball flew towards me.

“Linking Fire Burst with Flame Charge… Not bad.”

The second-tier magic Fire Burst that has grown in size through Flame Charge.

As it was attacked by using two magics at the same time, its power was also the highest among the 2nd tier.

And the speed of all the calculations was also less than 3 seconds.

“How is it! It’s not an attack that an insignificant cadet can block!”

Looking out of the arena, Ferricus’ thugs were cheering.

Thanks to that support, Ferricus saw me standing there blankly and exclaimed proudly.

However, to me, all of those things were laughable.

“Oh… !”

The fireball that was flying toward me with great force disintegrated into the air, leaving only the hot heat just before it swallowed me up.

Even if that’s the case, it’s second-tier magic anyway. It wasn’t that difficult to dispel this much.

“One of your idiots said that. Slaves are not people, so it doesn’t matter if they use magic. He was talking nonsense like that, so I put 7 Lightning Spears in his head.”

“What, what… “

Bewildered, Pericus immediately started calculating the next magic, but I intervened and dispelled Pericus’ magic before the calculation was finished.

Then leisurely, one by one. I piled a Lightning Spear over my head.

“Of course, I canceled the magic before piercing the head. Because I can’t die. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t matter here. No matter what you do.”

“Why, why the f*ck… Why the f*ck can’t this!”

Manae, who didn’t unite properly and scattered right away, threw his fist into the air with a tantrum.

Even if I said that, nothing changed.

Because it was easy to dispel such an obvious slow operation.

“Take a hit instead. 7 Lightning Spears.”

And seven completed Lightning Spears.

Just like that time, with only the last operation remaining, the 7 Lightning Spears were waiting to fly towards Pericus.

“Poetry, who the f*ck is that… I’m different from those idiots who can’t even use defense magic!”

Maybe he felt like he had to defend once, but this time he started calculating guard-type magic.

I didn’t bother to dispel this time. To give at least hope that it can be stopped.

“Are you done?”

And when a poor shield was formed in front of Pericus.

I completed the 7 final calculations at the same time, and at that moment, 7 Lightning Spears rushed towards Pericus.

“Who, who is this… “

It was a Lightning Spear that flew fairly honestly, so if you did well, you might be able to block all 7 attacks.

Fericus was also regaining his composure little by little, probably having made such a calculation.

But, of course, I had no intention of just watching it.

“Tell your friend about the review.”

Just before the 7 Lightning Spears collided with Pericus’ defense magic, I dispelled it as I had thought beforehand,

Fuhuaak-

“Ouch… gagging… “

Seven spears of lightning passed through the scattered shields and pierced Pericus’ upper body.

Exactly one point. As if 7 darts were planted in the center of a dartboard.

There was a large hole in his stomach, and because of the electric shock phenomenon unique to the Lightning family, he was coughing up blood and shaking his body.

I was tongue-tied at the sight that was implemented quite realistically, but still.

“Write… But, well, you don’t really die.”

Because you don’t really die.
