I Possessed an Academy Without a Protagonist

Episode 14. Start (1)

midnight.

A faint moonlight fell on the narrow alley.

A man quietly walked down the alley and entered a small shop at the end.

Unlike the shabby exterior, the inside had a neat bar scene.

The man sitting in front of the bartender in a suit opened his mouth.

“A glass of milk.”

“Guests. The cafe is not open at night.”

“I know.”

“············”.

The two men exchanged short passwords and made eye contact.

“Khahahahaha! You’re still the same. There’s no one else here but us, so what else are you doing to pass the password on?”

“I just did it on principle.”

Eric couldn’t help it and burst out laughing.

The Hurtlocker looked at him and crossed his arms and looked at him in disapproval.

There was no one at the bar but two people.

In addition, it is a space protected by a high-power barrier.

No matter what I said, I didn’t want it to leak out.

“Are things going well?”

“What do you mean?”

“Is there anything else? Infiltrating the crow.”

“It’s not going well.”

Hurtlocker sighed.

There are errands all over the empire who carry out all kinds of quests, and they call them crows.

The crow will carry out any quests without asking or questioning if they get money.

Of course, there’s no way it’s legal, so the crows hide their identities and live in the dark.

And the Hurt Lockers are now attempting to approach them to become a member of the Ravens.

“They seem to have to be careful because their information network is not normal.”

“Is that right. Oh, that’s right. Emilia came and went today.”

“Are you Emilia? Aren’t you on a mission right now? Why?”

As soon as Emilia’s name appeared, the tone of Hurt Locker’s voice changed.

Who wouldn’t want a little sister?

Eric shook his head.

“I’m here as part of a mission.”

“That means-“

“Yeah. Schlust Heinkel. With him.”

“············”.

Hurt Locker’s expression rotted.

“It seems that Schlusus liked this cafe. Originally, we were going to withdraw from here, but we’ll have to wait and see. The subject of surveillance says he will come periodically, so there’s no reason to refuse, right?”

“By the way…. What is Emilia?”

“Huh? What.”

“Hey, isn’t it hard? Is that Schluss doing bad things or not?”

“Hey tongue. Let’s sell our worries, bastard. Are you a kid who will stay still if Emilia is mistreated? It’s good if you don’t pay it back double.”

“Even so… Huh?”

At that moment, papers began to come out of the artifacts lying on the bar.

The paper was stamped with a code made of dots and lines.

“Only Emilia’s regular report.”

“Are you Emilia? What does it say?”

“Uh… well… well….”

Holding a long piece of paper and cracking the code, Eric frowned.

It was something that the Hurt Locker couldn’t hear.

“Chief?”

“Schlus Heinkel seems like a good person.”

“···········?”

The Hurt Locker’s expression was bizarrely distorted.

Good people? What does that mean?

For an intelligence agent, the only criterion for judging a person is whether it is helpful or not. There is no concept of good and evil.

It’s probably not Emilia who doesn’t know that, but did she dare to use the expression ‘a good person’?

If so, maybe this is something like a password?

In fact, Schlust was a tyrant who touched the monks…

Emilia wants to ask for help only from me without being detected by other agents…

“Hey. Stop. Calm down for now, Yonseok.”

“What.”

“I must have been doing some crazy grandiose delusions again. Stop it, that.”

“············”.

stabbed the corner

He was a Hurt Locker who had a habit of always thinking in the wrong direction when only Emilia was involved.

“Just interpret it as it is. You say he’s a good person. Maybe he’s a good-natured young man.”

“Oh, that’s not possible. I’ve never seen Emilia compliment anyone other than me before…. What the hell happened?”

“Hey tongue. It’s serious, this.”

Eric sighed as he thought about it.

Hurt Locker’s approach was also reasonable to some extent.

If it was Emilia on a regular basis, it would not have been possible to discuss the personality of the person being monitored.

However, if you look at the fact that such information was delivered during the regular reporting period, where you could not send a few words…

It seemed to be appealing.

Please don’t kill Schlust.

‘Oh no.’

Emilia, who is famous for her coldness, couldn’t do that.

Eric quickly denied it.

***

The opening day has come.

It seems like a few days have passed since the entrance ceremony already…

The only magic he has learned so far is gravity magic and barrier magic. Both of them can only be activated weakly.

When my magic skills are revealed, it’s all over.

It’s literally over.

‘Is it magic today?’

Yesterday, after swordsmanship training in the training room, I wrote ‘Selection and Concentration’ on my stamina.

Now, the remaining stats until the store is opened are two, magic power and strength.

But today, there is no need to worry about which stat to raise.

Because something that requires enormous magical power is sure to happen today.

“Whoa….”

can i do well

I was starting to get worried.

People will know that I am a superhuman who has endured the barrier of fear, but in reality I am nothing.

If anyone decides to attack me, I’ll be able to reveal my bottom line quickly.

“Mr. Heinkel.”

“yes?”

“The tie is crooked.”

“············”.

While I was gloomy, Emilia came closer and trimmed my clothes.

After rearranging the collar, a smile appeared on Emilia’s face as she tied the tie again.

“Now it’s done.”

“············”.

“Mr. Heinkel. Be strong today.”

“thank you.”

Emilia smiled and spoke words of support.

Even though this is just acting, it may not have been my true intentions, but it still gave me a lot of strength.

I am the author of this novel.

In other words, he is the creator of this world.

Thinking about it that way, my confidence began to fill.

“I’ll go.”

“Have a safe trip.”

After bowing and greeting Emilia, I moved on.

Toward the classroom that will soon become a chaos.

*

Su Geun-dae ignored the crowd and entered the classroom.

A huge lecture hall on the 3rd floor.

This is where the elemental magic lectures take place.

And it is also a place where disaster is coming soon.

‘That’s it.’

Above the church was a cart full of stones.

On the outside, they look like magic stones that will be used as teaching aids, but in fact, something foreign is hidden inside.

Explosive Artifacts.

There is a bomb hidden inside that absorbs all the magical powers of the surrounding manastones and turns them into explosive power.

Its explosive power was enough to shatter not only the classroom, but the entire building.

In the original story, the main character uses an overwhelming amount of magical power to block the explosion.

·······But there is no Hurt Locker here, so I have to do it myself.

[Quest: Prevent casualties from explosions.]

[Difficulty: ★★★☆☆]

[Reward: 3 Shop Coins]

The quest also appeared.

Now we just wait for the explosive artifacts to oscillate.

He sat still and held his hands in a cold sweat.

I looked around and everyone was chatting. Some are pointing at me and whispering.

Of course, I am the only one who knows that there is a bomb in this classroom.

“uh?”

Except for that woman.

what. Why is he here?

Without realizing it, I jumped up.

“Uh?”

“············”.

The woman who was going down the stairs turned around to see if she felt my gaze.

A silver cross hanging from the chest. And black nuns and veils.

It is certainly.

Iris von dem Fleischette.

The saint of Fleischette.

.

“Why did you come?”

“Huh? Yes?”

“············”.

When he came to his senses, he was questioning Iris, who was the first to see him.

Why did you come here even though you saw the future?

Why did you come even though you knew the classroom was going to be engulfed in flames?

I realized it only after seeing Iris’ vague reaction.

Suddenly, silence had subsided in the classroom.

All eyes were on us from all directions.

I didn’t mean to get attention in this way.

How did you describe the reason Iris came to the classroom in the original story?

Come to think of it, I don’t think I wrote anything special.

Was this a setting error?

Why haven’t there been any comments pointing this out before?

Maybe it was because the setting that Iris had a future poem was revealed later.

“Why are you here?”

“·······No. Excuse me.”

I quickly sat back down to settle the situation.

Iris tilted her head and went up the stairs again and stood next to me.

sh*t. I thought I’d just go.

“Schlus Heinkel. Are you a senior student?”

“Yes.”

“I’m Iris von dem Fleischette. Nice to meet you.”

Iris smiled and held out her hand to me.

At first glance, it’s only a benevolent smile, but I know the emotions hidden underneath.

pessimism towards all things.

Iris looked into the future over and over again, and confirmed that the only future for the continent was destruction.

Therefore, she is pessimistic about the current world and is in despair.

The person who heals her despair while carefully showing her a hopeful future is the main character, Hurt Locker…

Let’s stop talking about the guy who isn’t here.

I stared at the hand that Iris gave me.

It was the intention of the back of the hand to be up.

“Yes. Nice to meet you, Madame.”

“······Oh.”

I grabbed the hand and turned it to the side, holding it and shaking hands.

Maybe he was expecting a kiss on the back of his hand, but he didn’t know how to do it, so he just let it go.

If I did it in a shy way, it would only make me laugh.

I’ll have to learn from Emilia, even if it’s polite to greet aristocrats later.

“What a rude thing to do!”

“How dare you say hello to a saint on an equal footing!”

“············”.

It must have been a mistake to hear shouts from all around.

Do handshakes and kissing on the back of the hand have a very different meaning?

I really need to study.

“Don’t worry about it. I’m here as a student, so I’m not a saint or anything else here.”

“Then let’s talk. Because we’re classmates.”

“·······Huh? Yes?”

Iris’ expression darkened again.

No, if it’s a classmate, it’s okay to talk nonsense.

is not it? Come to think of it, it seems like everyone was respectful to Iris.

I can’t remember the details.

“Dare you try to match the saint!”

“Saint! Get away from that guy right now!”

Anyway, this seems to be the wrong answer.

Aren’t you going to pretend to be with Iris?

So, are you really f*cked up?

“Mr. Heinkel. The least politeness we have with each other is-“

Kugung…!

Iris’s words were buried in a roar.

Everyone’s heads turned toward the pulpit.

There, there was a spherical object that slowly rose from the pile of manastones and floated into the air.

has it already started

“What is that?”

“Stand, please!”

“Why? What is it?”

“Damn! Run away! Explosive artifacts!”

It was the same flow as the original.

Someone discovers the identity of the artifact, and the classroom becomes a chaos in an instant.

As the artifact grew redder, the screams of the students grew louder and louder.

Students flocked in at once, and the area around the entrance was filled with people.

“What, what! Why won’t it open!”

But the door will be locked.

Not only that.

It’s even protected by magic, so first-year students won’t be able to open it no matter what they do.

“Aww! I don’t want to die!”

“Ah?!”

A panicked student passed by and slapped Iris on the shoulder.

He wrapped his arms around Iris’ waist, who was about to fall and lose focus in the wind.

“Oh, thank you.”

“······Nope.”

If I hadn’t stopped along the way, I wouldn’t have fallen like this.

It was very uncomfortable to hear that thank you for catching what was about to fall because of me.

“Why are you here, really?”

“············”.

I was so curious, so I asked one more time, but Iris didn’t say anything.

but. It’s hard to answer because I’ve never told anyone that I see the future.

“Okay. Let’s step back.”

“Yes? What are you going to do now…”

Pushing Iris behind me, I looked straight at the pulpit.

The color of the explosion artifact was slowly changing to yellow, and it looked like it was about to explode.

Now it’s time to use the gravity magic you’ve been practicing all night.

With the explosion artifact as the center, I will cast a magic that sucks in everything within a 10 meter radius.

Now, the ability, ‘selection and concentration’…

“Whoa!”

“No sh*t-“

I have to write

Erica Jean Why are you getting up on the podium again?
