I Became an Extra Who Died Instead of the Main Character

31 – Organize

The tool the principal gave me was more useful than I thought.

For now, this cane.

It couldn’t have been more comfortable to have it automatically set to my class schedule and lead me to where I needed to go.

They even guided me to avoid people or obstacles in front of me. I thought this was magic.

A while ago, when I was heading to the principal’s office, I barely managed to get there even with Ifrit’s help, but with this staff and Ifrit’s support shot, I was able to walk like a person with normal eyesight.

There is a downside that it can only be used inside the academy, perhaps because it is an academy item, but I couldn’t really think of it as a downside since I wouldn’t go out in such a blinded state.

Anyway, thanks to this staff and Ifrit who kept interfering with me, I was able to reach class 1 without being late for class.

“Ryan? Can it happen now?”

As soon as I entered the classroom, I heard Karina’s voice from the front.

‘Turn your head a little more to the right.’

However, while blind, I could only know the approximate location of Karina, but not the exact location, so I had to get help from Ifrit to find out the exact location.

After receiving help from Ifrit, I was able to greet Karina as if nothing had happened.

“Hello, Karina.”

“Uh…Yes. So, are you feeling better now?”

“Of course. I’m fine now.”

“······I can’t believe something… You fought that crazy professor until the very end.”

No one has seen the scene where I use Circle 6 magic except for Ifrit and Professor Tillian, who have already died.

Since she absorbed Adele’s inherent magical power, she was Karina who had seen the scene where she walked to Professor Tillion, so she said as if she couldn’t believe my words.

“It’s really good.”

But I was able to talk to Karina without hesitation.

Because he was really confident.

Except for a small problem with my eyesight and Adele’s chronic illness that was slowly eating away at my body, my body was no different from that of a normal person.

‘······Already that’s quite different from normal humans.’

I ignored the fact of the spirit stabbing my sore spot lightly. Even if I admit it, it only hurts my heart.

Karina was also in an atmosphere of ignoring it.

“Yeah… Well, if you are, then that’s what it is.”

“By the way, what happened to our assignment?”

“······Mentor assignment?”

“Yes.”

Thanks to that, I was able to ask questions that I had been curious about from the moment I woke up, but hadn’t been able to ask because there was no one to ask.

What happened to the mentor assignment that had become a mess?

‘······If you’re curious about that, shouldn’t you have asked the principal earlier?’

Um… That’s right.

But what can I do? I didn’t even think to ask that at the time because we were talking about sight.

‘···’

I felt like I could see Ifrit’s expression looking at me pitifully even though he couldn’t see.

While she was feeling the subtle feeling that she could see even though she couldn’t see, Karina sighed and said.

“Haa, it’s a mentor assignment… Well, you didn’t know because you were lying in the health room all day yesterday.”

“What happened yesterday?”

“Something… Happened. That’s not normal.”

At this point, I was a little nervous.

How big of a thing happened to build up the build-up like this?

‘Did I just ask?’

She began to wonder if she had done something wrong.

Perhaps aware of my insecurities, Karina continued her speech without stopping.

“Let’s talk about the assignment first, it’s screwed.”

“······ Screwed up?”

“Uh. That’s literally it. It’s screwed.”

I couldn’t stand Karina’s expression, which was stronger than I thought, and had no choice but to ask.

It’s ruined. It’s a bit too extreme.

“It must have been absurd even from the professors’ point of view. The students all passed out, and the corpse of a monster was found in the forest. Even Professor Tillian’s body was found out of nowhere.”

“That’s right… What? Found something?”

For a moment, I thought I had heard it wrong.

The professors didn’t come and catch Professor Tillion?

But unlike my eyes, there was absolutely nothing wrong with my ears, and Karina spoke again, stuttering her words a little.

“Uh… Professor Tillion’s corpse?”

“···”

The professors didn’t kill Professor Tillion. Then, who the hell killed Professor Tillian?

I could be sure that I wasn’t the main character. After using the Explosion, I still felt a throbbing feeling at the place where I was hit by Professor Tillian.

‘Then I was the only one awake…’

All the other students must have fainted under the influence of the 6th circle magic, Explosion.

Even I, who was fighting with Professor Tillion, was hit in the stomach several times by Professor Tillion and was on the verge of fainting.

As I thought about it, I suddenly felt a pain in my head.

“Ugh.”

“······You’re really okay, right? You’re not okay, aren’t you just pretending to be okay?”

When she suddenly saw me complaining of her pain, Karina asked how I was doing, but I wonder if my condition became uneasy.

I couldn’t answer because I remembered the situation at the time that I couldn’t remember.

I remembered Professor Tillian, who was trying to open my mouth by forcing me to see how he used the 6th circle magic. And when I didn’t open my mouth, I also remembered Professor Tillian, who changed his method and tried to target Adele instead of torturing me.

But after that. I can’t remember what happened after that.

As if someone had blown my entire memory, I just couldn’t remember that part.

‘I think I heard a voice…’

If there’s one thing I remember, it’s probably the last time I heard a nice voice.

No matter how much I thought about it, nothing came to mind.

“Hello? Ryan?”

“Huh? Huh.”

“You’re really okay, right?”

While trying to recall the memory of that time, I forgot Karina in front of her.

Feeling apologetic for nothing, I reassured Karina that she was fine.

“Uh. It’s okay. I thought of something else for a second.”

“······Then I will continue speaking?”

As she nodded her head in response, Carina started talking again.

“Anyway, that’s why mentor assignments aren’t going to be included in grades, and Professor Javert and Principal Lapis bowed their heads directly to the parents.”

“The principal bowed his head himself?”

To think that Principal Lapis, the 6th class magician, personally apologized to the parents. This was by no means a common occurrence.

Is that why this incident is absolutely not a small incident?

“Did you know that Class 1 has more students from nobles than commoners?”

“Uh. I know.”

“So right now there are protests coming in from numerous noble families towards the academy.”

The same goes for our family, of course. Listening to Karina’s story, I suddenly felt sorry for the principal I met this morning.

Somehow, it seemed that his voice was low. You’ve been through something like this. In the meantime, did you find anything that could help me? Maybe this is a bit exciting.

After briefly thanking the principal, I listened to Karina’s story.

“I know that all the families of the students in class 1 have protested… And probably the families of the students in the other classes have also sent a lot of calls saying they are anxious.”

“······All of the families of the students in Class 1 have contacted you?”

“Huh? Professor Javert said that yesterday.”

If all the families of class 1 students contacted you… Are you saying that the Kindred family also contacted you?

‘The count couldn’t be like that.’

I couldn’t feel it because the time I was at the academy was getting longer, but both internally and externally, I was a child of the Kindred family.

It is also true that the Count suddenly treated me well when I left for the academy, but it wasn’t just enough to forget my past memories.

Why is the Count suddenly like that?

Thinking about it now, it was very unexpected. What kind of wind blew the count, who had treated me like a child who gave me up even the day before, handed over the family carriage?

‘······Adele was also strange.’

Coming to think of it, what Adele said in the forest also bothered me.

‘I kept it this time.’ Doesn’t it sound like you couldn’t protect me in the past?

No matter how much I look back on her memories, there is no memory of Adele not protecting me, but she did not easily predict what it meant.

“Uh… The Princess of Listonia is here.”

“······Adele?”

Did they say that even a tiger would come if I told them?

I couldn’t see it, but I could indirectly know that Adele had arrived by the sound of the door opening and the noise in the classroom becoming quiet.

And then I heard Adele’s beautiful voice.

“Ryan? Are you okay now?”

“Yeah, it’s okay now. Are you okay? You were hurt because of me.”

I didn’t think about it, but in fact, the reason why Adele collapsed was because she was hit by Professor Tillian’s magic instead of me.

‘······It wasn’t enough to hurt her heart, so now she actually hurt her.’

At that fact, a feeling of guilt grew within me.

Adele must have felt the guilt welling up inside me, so he hurriedly explained why he was okay.

“No, don’t be sorry. It was my choice, and I got well soon.”

“But…”

Even so, when I couldn’t get rid of my apologetic expression, Adele moved the conversation to another topic.

“By the way, Ryan. Have you heard about that?”

“What are you talking about?”

“It means that our class will be holding an open class.”

“······Open class?”

Suddenly open class? As far as I know, Selenium Academy has never said that it is an open class.

But as if to prove that Adele’s words weren’t lies, Karina also responded to Adele’s words.

“Ah! I’ve heard that too. They said that class 1 is being released to convince parents who have lost their trust this time.”

“······Why is it class 1?”

As I lamented the news that suddenly sounded like thunder from the sky, Karina said as if she was suddenly saying something nonsensical to me.

“Of course it happened in our class, so we’ll reveal our class.”

“······· Haa.”

If it was an open class, all the other students’ parents would come.

‘The Count… Of course he won’t come.’

Just before I came to the academy, he suddenly treated me well, but I didn’t think that the count who treated me as a child would completely change overnight.

Even now, I don’t understand why the Count suddenly treated me well.

‘What should I answer if Professor Javert asks?’

When the homeroom teacher asked why the people from your family didn’t come, I sighed once more as I tried to think of an answer.
