I Became a Munchkin Who Hides His Academy Powers - I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes chapter 319

319 – Festival

Finally, the peace festival began.

As it is a festival to celebrate and pray for peace across the continent, the Peace Festival was held in every city on the continent.

Isn’t it safe to say that this is actually an anniversary, not just a festival?

This kind of festive atmosphere that was not limited to a specific region but encompassed the whole world was a spectacle that could only be seen during the Christmas season on Earth.

In fact, it is said that the Great Assembly designated the day on which the Peace Festival was held as an anniversary and plans to commemorate it every year.

“Let’s see… Peaceful day… It is a monumental day when true peace arrived across the continent, and a day to commemorate the achievements of the great hero Ceylon, the protagonist of peace… “

The moment I read the contents of the template distributed around the city, my face convulsed.

‘So. Now, every year, people from all over the continent celebrate my achievements and get into the Christmas mood… ?’

I was completely distracted by the overwhelming scale of the fuss.

I wanted to confidently declare, ‘No thank you’, but-

Let’s change our position and think about it.

In the midst of all the excitement about the Christmas season, the spirit of Jesus appears in front of everyone and declares, ‘I didn’t want this!’

I can’t even guess what will happen.

At least, what is clear is that the atmosphere around the world will be soured.

I had no desire to become a world-class idiot who ruined the atmosphere of the entire continent.

Well, actually.

There was no need for me to step in and show off my bratty nature.

People may praise my achievements for a year or two, but at some point, my achievements will simply become a good reason for a festival.

Just like all the anniversaries I know.

So.

For now, let’s just enjoy this festive atmosphere purely.

With that in mind, I was now walking around the Academy shopping district to feel the festival atmosphere with my whole body.

Because the festival was not held only in Arien, people from all over the continent did not gather.

Nevertheless, the streets were so crowded that one wondered if people from all over the continent had flocked there.

“Dad! Dad! Let’s eat that!!! “It’s Ceylon’s favorite dish!”

“I heard that Ceylon was a regular at this store. Is this true?”

“Oh, of course!!! Hey, see that empty seat? “That’s where Ceylon usually sits!”

“Oooh… !”

“Of course! It was a good thing I came to Arien even though it was difficult! “I can’t believe I can feel his traces so close!”

“Hey, is that really!? “Mr. Ceylon will be attending the upcoming festival event in person!”

“Ah, that’s right!”

Surprisingly, this happened because the slit-eyed guy beat the Academy and took over as Erantel’s mascot.

People came to Arien to feel the traces of the hero Ceylon.

‘Goodbye Academy. ‘You are just an ordinary person who was born in an era without me.’

Perhaps because the merchants knew this, they began to actively participate in the festival business.

The first store I saw was selling the menu that Ceylon loved.

The first cafe I saw was selling a drink that Ceylon had received rave reviews about.

There is a portrait of Ceylon.

Souvenirs related to Ceylon.

A song honoring Ceylon’s achievements.

A play in which Ceylon is the main character.

‘…Is this the right way to receive royalties?’

No matter where I went on the street, I could see my name and my face.

Thanks to this, I was now surrounded by a force that hindered my cognition.

Just like celebrities wear sunglasses and masks.

I felt a bit itchy because I felt like I had become overly self-conscious-

This was definitely better than having people recognize me and the surroundings becoming a mess and all kinds of damage happening one after another.

Of course, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed.

In essence, festivals are best enjoyed with friends in a free atmosphere.

However, that didn’t mean I felt sad, lonely, or left out.

When I was walking down the street, I was greeted by friendly faces that I occasionally saw.

“What are you hiding? I am him, the genius spearman who competed against the great hero Ceylon in the academy entrance exam! Ceylon’s best friend! I am Agion of the Morsi family!”

“Really!? You’re friends with that Ceylon!?”

“How!”

“Let’s all go together! We’ll tell you the story of Ceylon!”

“Could it be possible to meet Ceylon!?”

Agion is seducing girls by selling my name.

“Even if it takes a long time to come down there!!!”

“Hmm… I clearly remember that Ceylon’s thighs were weaker than mine… This is too much of a glorification.”

Melhen climbs on my statue erected in the square and observes it up close.

“Adela! Forget it! You’ll find a better relationship!”

“I liked Ceylon even before she was confirmed as the senior!!! I liked Ceylon even before she became famous!!! Everyone just likes Ceylon because she became famous and popular!!! Why is there a person who was rumored to be having an affair with Ceylon? “It’s not me!!!”

“There’s nothing we can do because the opponent is Whivien.”

“uuu!!! If only I, I had been born into a great family…!”

Adella is being comforted by being surrounded by fellow noble ladies.

“Professor. I heard this is my brother’s favorite beer. Can I try it?”

“hahahahaha! Suuya! Not that!!! Let’s try the apple juice that Ceylon-kun liked!”

“They look the same, what’s the difference?”

“Should we say one is for adults and the other is for children!?”

“Then I want to eat something for adults.”

“That’s apple juice! Adult life is so bitter that we need a lot of sweetness!”

“I see… But my brother seems to like a lot of things. Wherever I go, I can see things that my brother likes.”

“hahahahaha! It’s the fate of a hero!”

Professor Megan and Suu enjoy the festival side by side holding hands.

“Solar~ Look at this~ It’s a Ceylon mask~?”

“Where did you get that from? It’s not even similar at all.”

“Oh, you’re being grumpy. I knew you would be like that, so I got you a solar one~? Here, a Ceylon eyepatch~”

“… No, what are you selling?”

“Sinia! Solar! You have to go for the second time. The second time! There’s a barbecue restaurant that Ceylon has been frequenting since he was young. How about it!?”

“Hmm~? Our number 348 has been a regular since we were young? But, I guess our number 348 isn’t from Arien?”

“Huh?”

Our Hound members are heavily intoxicated in broad daylight.

“Hey, Meloin. What is it? Why aren’t you drunk at all? Are you really just blowing away all your alcohol with mana?”

“It’s obvious.”

“Why is it natural not to get drunk while drinking?”

“Do you think I would tolerate a drug like this interfering with my intellect?”

“Oh my god. That’s the most boring thing I’ve ever heard in my life.”

“That’s it. When will Ceylon, which you said you’ll join later, come?”

“Huh? Did I say that?”

“…”

The two older brothers are together for some reason.

“Ah… The world is full of Ceylon professors…”

Chairman Lelosi holding a full basket with both hands.

‘Everyone is having fun.’

I think choosing Academy Street as the festival tour location was an excellent choice.

I guess my acquaintances had similar thoughts, as most of them were enjoying the festival in the same area as me.

Seeing the faces of my acquaintances filled with joy made me feel happy too.

Now that I think about it, I feel like attending a festival is just a matter of people-watching.

‘What. Doesn’t it matter?’

This is one of the ways to enjoy the festival.

‘Now, slowly…’

That was the moment when I was about to end my visit to the festival.

“No, well! Even if it’s really like this!? It’s all thanks to me that Ceylon was able to pass the academy!”

“Hmm?”

An interesting story reached my ears through all the noise.

I headed towards the place where the story was told.

“Now listen! That day! The day when the academy entrance exam was held! If I hadn’t helped Ceylon, who came to Arien to take the academy entrance exam, pass, he wouldn’t have been able to take the exam!? Huh!? So, ! It was actually thanks to me that he passed the academy exam and was able to save the world~ I’m right~ I’m wrong~”

“It’s wrong. It’s also something that should be struck down.”

“Oh my! How jealous!”

“Um… Ah!”

Someone said this.

He was the security guard in charge of screening at the checkpoint when I entered Arien.

-Anyway, whatever. Good luck. You’ll need a lot of luck.

For some reason, what the security guard said to me at that time remained vivid in my mind.

Is it because I heard this right before I was possessed by the game and entered the main stage of the game for the first time?

With those words in mind, I approached the security guard and sat down next to him.

“Huh? What? There are so many seats, why are you here-“

“I was interested in what the teacher just said.”

“Oh!? Really!?”

“Oh my, young friend. This idiot is talking nonsense, so just ignore it and leave.”

“hahahaha, after listening to it, I don’t think it’s completely wrong, right?”

“Right!? Right!? Great. Of course. I can communicate better with young people than with old people?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm?”

“Thank you for your good luck then.”

“…Huh?”

“Everything went surprisingly well. Maybe it was thanks to the teacher’s good luck wishes.”

As soon as I finished speaking, I took away the power to hinder recognition.

“Huh…!”

“Poem, poem, thread-“

“I hope that your future path will be filled with as much luck as mine.”

I put down a gold coin on the table, bowed to him, and left.

I finally finished watching the festival and checked the time.

It was time to start preparing.

***

When the sun rose highest.

Citizens who were enjoying the festival in Arien flocked to Arien Square.

In a little while, the most awaited event of the Peace Festival will begin here.

Appointment ceremony.

It was the moment when commoner Ceylon was officially given the name of a great hero and was reborn as a great person who would be recorded in history.

Citizens left everything behind and gathered here to share that historic moment.

In a moment.

A person appeared on a luxurious platform prepared in the center of the square.

In a moment.

A person appeared on a luxurious platform prepared in the center of the square.

-hahahaha, hello everyone.

It gave the impression of an innocent smile, as if it would fly away when the wind blows.

Nevertheless, everyone was enthusiastic about his appearance.

Because now people know what kind of person he is.
