From Space Idiot to Professor

chapter 28



28 – Pass (2)

[— The ‘God of Wisdom and Curiosity’ places knowledge and wisdom as the top values. She sincerely congratulates you on your acceptance to Stellarium as an apostle (although she is a little disappointed).]

[— Reminder: Claim your reward.]

Immediately after the message window appears.

Wow.

Someone’s watch vibrated.

“… “It looks like you’re here.”

The first to react was Zernia.

She turned her attention to us and opened the screen, as if the argument she had just had was no big deal.

[Notice of Acceptance]

[Name: Zernia von und Adelbein]

[The above student is hereby notified that he has been accepted into the Academia course at our school.]

Even though it is reversed left and right, there is one word that is clearly visible.

Passed.

It was what I expected.

“No way, already…” ?”

Lu Stilla, who belatedly realized her situation, opened her eyes wide. Actually, I had no idea that the acceptance announcement would be made today.

“Ah!”

Rustilla’s face shines brightly.

[Name: Rustilla Kersil]

[The above student is hereby notified that he has been accepted into the Academia course at our school.]

She caught it too.

“The writing was close… !”

Rustilla patted my shoulder and smiled brightly. She had a face as fresh as a flower blooming in the field.

With this, Lu Stila has taken the first step towards achieving her dream.

“You put a lot of effort into it.”

I really liked the group of humans of the same type as Rustilla.

Because I was that kind of person too.

– Is it Jinsu? Graduate school? What do you mean?

– I already passed.

– Jinsuyaaa!!

Uh, is this a slightly different story?

Anyway.

The attitude of persevering in achieving one’s goal despite the obstacles around one’s surroundings is worthy of praise.

Seeing Rustilla’s smile makes me feel good too. She felt like she could finally open her face.

However, the gap still remains.

[Note: Excellent scholarship student]

There was an additional word like that in Zernia’s acceptance letter.

Excellent scholarship student.

An honorable title that can be received from 2nd to 10th place among the numerous Academia freshmen.

In other words, her entrance score was extremely high.

Although Zernya has a weak personality, she is good at studying.

Yes, studying. In fact, he is excellent in everything except his personality.

But what is this?

“Uh… ?”

Zernia’s eyes were dull as she glanced at the remarks column.

Swish.

She quickly turned off her screen. Then he looked at me and Rustilla alternately. She had a look of despair in her amethyst eyes.

Zernia made eye contact with me for a particularly long time.

“… What are you. Are you stuck?”

Silence fell.

The corners of Rustila’s mouth, which had been smiling, lowered. There is deceit in Zernia’s eyes. I couldn’t help but sigh between the two girls as I checked the status on my phone instead of my watch.

[Name: Eidel von Rhineland]

[This is to be notified that the above student has passed the Academia course at our school with excellent grades.]

[Note: Best scholarship student (senior)]

Should I say this or not?

After thinking about it for a while, I decided not to do it. It was already stuffy and I didn’t want to be held captive by Zernia for a long time.

Anyway, when the time comes, Zernia will find out. There is no need to tell me now. I smiled bitterly.

“You fell, right?”

Zernia asked with a wry smile. Anxiety and doubt. I feel two emotions in her eyes.

“I fell when I saw your face.”

Jeopuk.

She takes a step closer.

“Who the hell are you?”

It was Rustila who stopped Zernia.

“Who are you to approach my friend and spew out random words?”

Rustila, uncharacteristic of herself, snapped at Zernia. Her sense of justice came to my defense.

“I’m not interested in things that fall off. Move.”

“… “Aren’t you speaking too harshly?”

Zernia’s onslaught and Rustilla’s defense.

This is an awkward situation.

I just wanted to get out of here and get some rest, but it seemed like the two girls were going to fight longer than expected.

To organize my thoughts, I received compensation from a foreign media outlet.

[— Congratulations. ‘SAN parameters’ can now be used!]

SAN parameters.

SAN is a word derived from the first three letters of Sanity, which means mental power.

In other words, the SAN parameter is an additional function of the status window that allows you to view a person’s mental power.

This is an ability that the main character gains in the latter half of the game. And from the point of acquiring this ability, a glimmer of hope appears in the novel.

Because the person who should have gone crazy does not go crazy, and the person who should have died does not die.

It is such an important measure. This is a module that can change the future.

Foreign Reporter Cartesia has given her many skills to me, who is now in her early stages.

[— Use SAN parameters (Lv.1).]

*****

[Rustilla Kersil: 160 / 1500]

[Characteristics: Maximum mental power is about 500 points higher than that of an ordinary person.]

[Psychological state: I am happy with the situation given to me. I have a slight crush on you.]

*****

*****

[Zernya Adelbein: 340 / 1000]

[Characteristics: Has ‘distorted self-esteem’. (Lv.2 Is required to check additional information)]

[Mental state: I am unable to accept the current situation. I am very curious about you.]

*****

The SAN parameter has the same scale as the Pron Number (PN), and for convenience, the higher the value, the higher the likelihood of mental breakdown.

The current level is only 1. It is a level where only simple characteristics or psychological states can be known.

You will be able to raise your level further in some way.

I will be able to get more information when I go there. Whether it’s more detailed emotional lines or specific ways to lower stress levels.

Of course, all of these processes require a price.

[— Notice: 100 pros were paid for 1 minute of viewing.]

The longer you look at information, the more people you try to see, and the more detailed information you try to find out, the more pron is consumed.

In other words, the game is divided here.

Are you going the ‘dog-friendly route’, using all the pron you have earned to strengthen yourself?

Or do you go the ‘colleague route’ where everyone helps each other while protecting the characters’ mentality as much as possible?

“… ….”

This is nothing to see.

I turned off the screen and looked at the two girls. Before I knew it, the two were arguing among themselves, leaving me alone.

“Don’t argue with Eidel.”

“Why are you meddling?”

“You said that to my friend.”

“Ah, this was a fight. “I didn’t know.”

“You don’t seem to have any friends.”

“Nam Isa.”

In the original work, the relationship between these two was very bad.

And reality is trying to follow suit.

“I’m sorry, Eidel. You waited, right? Let’s go.”

Perhaps thinking that further arguing was unreasonable, Lu Stila grabbed my arm and tried to leave the park.

And.

“Where are you running to?”

Zernia, who saw that, quickly followed with a grumpy expression.

“Did you pass or not? “That’s all you have to say?”

“Let’s run.”

Rustilla walked faster. Now, jogging has to be called arena running.

My heart and lungs feel like they will explode. My blood vessels are screaming. Rustilla’s running speed was beyond imagination.

Lou Stila asked me while running with all her might.

“… Eidel, I’m curious too.”

Whispering.

“When I go back… “I’ll tell you.”

“When I go back…… ?”

I nodded.

[— The ‘God of Wisdom and Curiosity’ nods to your wise choice.]

[— 100 Pron sponsorship received!]

“Hey you guys, where are you going!”

***

Rustilla and I managed to shake off Zernia and return to our lodgings.

That was when I was about to enter the lobby on the first floor.

“Miss!”

The androids escorting Rustila flocked to her like a cloud.

“Oh my gosh, where have you been?”

“More than that, this sweat! You need to go into the shower room quickly. “If you leave it like this, you might get sick!”

“What on earth are you two doing…?” No way?”

[— Pay 100 Pro to use ‘SAN Parameters (Lv.1)’.]

*****

[Rustilla Kersil: 200 / 1500]

[Mental state: Tired of android interference.]

*****

The mental strength level, which had hardly changed even during the argument with Zernia, rose by 40 at once.

That’s not good.

As her mental power became visible, Lu Stila began to look more pitiful.

I stepped in front of her, sighing deeply on her behalf.

“Do I need your permission to even do simple exercise?”

“The lady is like that.”

Jermel answered immediately.

“Lady Rustilla is the only child of the Kersil family. She must be protected no matter what. An order given by the head of the family…….”

“That’s right, you ripped the crap out of me.”

“That!”

“If you’re going to hit me, beat me up like our Sonia.”

The robots were caught in a panic.

“Rustilla passed Stellarium anyway.”

“Ah, the lady… ?”

The androids stretched their artificial muscles and opened their mouths. For some reason, there was an uncanny valley, perhaps because it was the 4th generation.

“Yes, now Mr. Germel has no obligation to protect or take care of you.”

“No matter what, you have no obligation to protect the young lady…. “Isn’t that too much of a leap?”

“At Stellarium, you have to practice standing alone. “You may collapse from fatigue while studying, catch a cold because you cannot adapt to climate change, or bleed while practicing with a sword.”

“That’s absolutely not possible!”

“Then are you canceling my acceptance?”

The androids became agitated at my argument. This is not a matter they can decide, they probably decided that way. Stellarium was too good a school to cancel registration.

“We have to wash, so please get out of the way.”

It is sticky due to sweat. I want to quickly spray water and rest.

I waved my hands through the androids.

At the same time.

*****

[Rustilla Kersil: 150 / 1500]

[Psychological state: The current situation is causing you a lot of… (requires additional pron)]

*****

When a minute was up, I only checked Rustila’s mental strength level and unlocked her parameters.

“Let’s go.”

Just a little while ago, Rustila seemed to be grabbing my wrist.

As it happened, this time I ended up holding Rustila’s wrist and entering her.
