24 – The Search for a Champion (2)
I tell you that among those born of women there is no one greater than Dia. In the kingdom of , even the least of them are greater than her.
New Testament Gospel of Lydia 7:28
* * *
[Deus Ex Machina] Is a game whose main stage is an academy in a fantasy world.
There are adventures in other outer spaces as well as the academy, but most of the stories and events took place on the academy map.
In addition, since the game itself is not a completely open world game, the space outside the academy was not perfectly implemented.
So, there were buildings, but I couldn’t enter them because the inside wasn’t built.
There were even buildings inside the academy that I couldn’t enter.
[Deus Ex Machina] It was an inevitable part of the technology when the game was first released. So I never thought that a virtual reality open world game would be released so soon.
Anyway, as the main stage was this Kalandra Academy, most of the giyeons and hidden pieces that appeared in the game were hidden inside the academy.
For this reason, a large part of my asymmetric power as a possessor, that is, the ‘game knowledge’ that only I have to know, was forced to be biased inside the academy.
However, the academy’s security is very strict.
Even though it has been more than 10 years since I was possessed by this world, I was able to enter this academy only yesterday.
During that time, I wandered around as hard as I could and collected hidden pieces, but it was only a fraction compared to the inside of the academy.
The real ones are here.
And since the academy entrance ceremony itself is tomorrow, today I am free.
So I decided to go out with the intention of taking a tour of the academy buildings, checking out one of the hidden pieces as a test run, and bringing it back when the opportunity arises.
I left the dormitory building and looked at the lecture building buildings.
Yesterday, I arrived at the academy in a tired state, unpacked my stuff in the dormitory, and there was an incident with Iowa, so I didn’t have time to look around the academy.
So, today was the first time I properly looked at the academy.
It is a higher education institution for nobles and some outstanding commoners, so it was built with all the capabilities of the empire. That’s why it was made up of very beautiful, high-quality facilities.
Beautiful fountains and giant statues were located in the plaza located in the middle of the lecture hall, and benches were placed in front of the flower bed where you could sit and relax or have a chat.
These are all scenes I’ve seen in games, but my impressions of what I actually saw… It was completely different.
In the game, NPCs, or non-playable characters, simply stood in their designated place or walked along a designated route. Always repeating the same words over and over again.
However, the academy students here were free to act.
It was alive and moving!
Female students sitting around a bench and talking to each other.
Male students enjoy sports by exchanging orbs made of magic.
Yes, this is it.
The world I loved is alive and moving.
This is the academy…… !
Exactly the place I used to wander and enjoy!
After more than 10 years, we finally arrived here!
“Cow… To be honest, I don’t think it’s okay for aristocrats to reject their academy students just because they’re commoners….”
At that moment, I heard the sound of a group of people talking next to me.
I haven’t heard in 10 years, but that voice is familiar.
The voice of the character whose voice was recorded significantly less than the other characters even though it had the highest weight in the story.
That is the voice of the protagonist of [Deus Ex Machina].
“What do you mean, commoner?”
As I turned my head, I saw several people confronting each other.
Dia, the heroine of [Deus Ex Machina], Is standing at a distance from the three people who were talking close to each other.
What’s the situation?
I had never seen a situation like this in [Deus Ex Machina].
In the first place, in [Deus Ex Machina], Dia got caught up in an incident on her way to her academy admissions room. The tutorial at the beginning of the game proceeds with the incident involved there.
So, the original story is that you arrive at the end of the entrance ceremony on the same day, but you are already at the academy?
As expected, is it the butterfly effect of the things I changed, like Saula appeared too early?
The three humans who are currently looking at Dia due to a word spoken by Dia while arguing with each other.
Three girls with red hair, blue hair and yellow hair.
All three are unknown women.
They must be extras that I don’t even remember, or some of the academy students who have changed because of me.
The two red-haired and blue-haired students were wearing academy uniforms and wearing name badges of the color of nobility.
On the other hand, the yellow-haired woman wore the same academy uniform, but on the contrary, wore a name tag of the color that indicated her commoner status.
The academy entrance ceremony itself is scheduled for tomorrow, so no one would have said anything if they were wearing normal clothes today, but they are wearing school uniforms.
What is it?
Are they those who feel a strong sense of belonging to the school?
What did Dia say just now? Isn’t it okay to reject fellow academy students just because they’re commoners?
Did Dia intervene while those two red and blue noble academy students were harassing the yellow commoner academy student?
* * *
My name is Dia.
He is a commoner who was able to attend the academy with his help.
He said in a letter. At the academy, you shouldn’t run wild like usual.
As long as there are a lot of aristocrats, he said that if he had a conflict with them, life in the academy would be difficult in the future.
But that’s how things turn out.
Another commoner friend whom I met five days ago in the dormitory said that if two other cool-looking female students came to visit today wearing school uniforms, they would put them in their ‘Sorority’.
He was also the first friend I made, and to put it in ‘Sorority’, the exclusive property of those wonderful nobles! I was envious, but I cheered.
Later, if that friend goes well, I can also join them.
So I secretly went to the plaza to see if my friend was doing well and watched them….
The atmosphere didn’t look very good.
“Look at this. You said it would be like this. I knew commoners would try to hang out with us.”
“Sure. I don’t even know the level. Did you think you would be able to join us?”
“Really funny hahahaha!”
As we got closer, a friend got some strange, sticky liquid on his head and his pretty makeup was messed up.
I couldn’t even imagine the misery she would feel knowing how hard she had prepared all day yesterday and how much she had been looking forward to it.
Nobles… I only came in with words, but it’s so bloody.
You mean insulting and hurting someone just because you’re a commoner? Are you an academy student?
My hands are shaking.
No.
You can’t step out of here.
My friend was insulted, but if I step out here, I could be a target.
If that happens, the academy life in the future will be….
The promise she made with her sponsor…… !
However, I unknowingly gave them a voice.
“Cow… To be honest, I don’t think it’s okay for aristocrats to reject their academy students just because they’re commoners….”
I did it!
No way….
“What do you mean, commoner?”
Hee!
The aristocratic woman told me! I knew right away that I was a commoner! How can I not wear a school uniform? After all, does a rustic girl like me show off?
What should I do!
Do I have to leave the academy now?
The person who worked hard for me….
I’m sorry…. I said I’d be patient! I promised to do well! I couldn’t stand it….
Hing
“Hey commoner. What are you talking about? What are you doing Aang?”
“Oh, no, that’s not it…….”
Yes. Still, I did it to save my friend, right?
I turned my head to see where my friend was.
Then, my friend disappeared before I knew it.
… Huh?
Oh, where did you go?
“Did you abandon your friend and run away? Abandoning a friend who stood out for you. After all, commoners.”
“A disgusting people who have no faith and are always thinking of betrayal. Did His Majesty the Emperor, who allowed these people to attend the academy, make a mistake?”
Oh no. You said you abandoned me and ran away?
That… That. My friend is such a child…….
Is that right?
A friend I haven’t seen in a few days. I’m not even familiar with them that well.
But…….
“Right. That’s why we nobles should have greater authority to help the Emperor.”
“Anyway, you arrogantly criticized the actions of our nobles and put the brakes on. I should be punished. The punishment of our aristocratic Sorority.”
Nobles….
Are all nobles the only ones like this? To be ostracized and harassed like this just because the social status at birth was slightly different?
This…….
From noble mtl dot com
Then.
“Hey. Two there. What are you going to do with my friend?”
A beautiful sky-blue scion appeared in front of my eyes.
It’s like a prince in a fairy tale.
