4. aftermath

●

Paradoxically, people don't seem to react properly when they see things that are too shocking.

Even while Elijah, who had been thrown into the wall and was being carried away by emergency medical staff, there was only a heavy silence that could be heard even if someone took a small deep breath.

It was to the point where it felt like my soul had completely escaped from everyone's eyes.

"Victory, Doud Campbell."

However, at the same time as such a declaration fell from the referee with a dumbfounded expression.

"…what was that?!"

"What the hell is that guy doing?!"

A deafening explosion erupted from all directions.

Who is Doud Campbell? What the hell is Baron Campbell doing in town? It's not time like this, it's time to quickly gather information about him

In a situation where the world is madly noisy around me, I was standing alone and staring blankly at the sky.

me.

Allstat F.

A freshman at the bottom with two unknown skills.

Currently on the first day of admission to the academy.

At the same time as the start of his academy life, he subdued the main character in one blow.

"…ah, fuck."

How do I go about fixing this?

●

The Imperial Academy Elfante is one of the best educational institutions across the continent. The places that can be compared are, at most, the Holy Kingdom's [Great God Temple] or the [Furnace of Struggle] built by the Tribal Union.

And if it is an educational institution like that, of course, the face of the faculty is only colorful people.

"…"

"…"

So, now the situation is arguably heterogeneous.

Even those people couldn't hide their embarrassment.

In the magic crystal embedded in the center of the table, a video of Elijah Krissanax being knocked out with a single punch was being played back with rapturous excitement.

"As for the number of cases in the first case."

The head of the Faculty of Engineering opened his mouth in a heavy voice.

"Looks like an excellent scammer. A student named Lee Daud."

"…Suddenly, your evaluation is minuscule, Conrad?"

"Anyway, that makes no sense."

To the president's smiley reply, a middle-aged man with a cross scar on his face shook his head and replied.

"Anyone with some insight would have noticed this as soon as they saw it. This Dowd Campbell guy, obviously, was nothing before the start of the Dalian. He must have had no fighting skills or even the superpowers he possessed. However…"

He then manipulated the video to adjust the screen to the point where Elijah was being beaten.

"As much as this blow, it is unmistakably 'real'."

"What do you mean real?"

"It is said that none of the humans in this academy can survive a direct hit from that. First of all, from me."

At those words, the silence in the room increased even more.

The person who immediately said this was from the Imperial Guard, the pinnacle of all knights on the continent. Considering his background, it's hardly a tribute to someone with student status.

Especially considering that the human beings in this room are a faculty composed of only the best talents on the continent.

"Illegal drugs or unknown magic tools… I used some kind of 'method' to temporarily generate strong firepower. That's a high probability. Maybe everyone thinks so."

because.

If not, the existence of this Dowd Campbell would be much more troublesome.

"And a number of other cases."

He paused for a moment and smiled.

It's as if it's ridiculous that he even puts out such a word.

"He is a genius you can call a monster. Even if you look at it from generation to generation, it can be counted on one hand."

It wouldn't be strange at all to express it that way.

No matter who saw it, there was not even a one in ten thousand chance that Doud Campbell would win.

The opponent is 'he' Elijah Krisanax. The next [Hero] candidate that the imperial family is keeping an eye on.

Beomjae has combat skills that reach unreachable areas even if he struggles for the rest of his life, possesses abilities like a great sea, and has a strong mental strength that will never be broken under any circumstances.

None of these are talents Daoud doesn't have. At least on paper, this guy was truly a bug talent.

"…"

The problem is, that catastrophic gap was closed in one punch.

By an existence that I can't figure out how to do it, so I can only call it 'talent'.

And really.

If it's not a cheater, but a really genuine total of talent.

'It will become the eye of the storm.'

It will be the existence that will bring about a great upheaval.

Conrad thought so and stroked his chin.

"But that doesn't mean it's hard to just admit that student's victory. Marquess Kendride won't sit still."

Conrad also nodded at the words the president spoke in a soft voice.

Marquee Kendride. One of the oldest and most prestigious families in the empire, famous for having a rough relationship with the Duke of Tristan.

As an avid supporter of Elijah Krissanax, it was clear that Marquis Kendride would not want to compromise Elijah's 'merchandise' in the slightest.

"…"

Conrad's expression hardened.

At what point did you have to pay attention to politics in a space that was clearly established to teach students?

If you find a talented student, you should treat him accordingly.

"But it would be a big loss for the academy to leave a student who clearly stands out. Whether he is a fraud or not will be revealed sooner or later anyway, so let's see."

And as if he had read Conrad's mind, the president continued with a light smile.

It was an eye-opening sentence for Conrad.

"You mean let's see?"

"There are a lot of especially interesting freshmen this year. There are many students with strong personalities that need to be managed separately."

Although the tone to bring such words out was still light.

"If this student is good enough for the dean to say that… he must have a role to play. for them."

Undoubtedly, it was a sentence with a meaningful resonance.

●

therefore.

I've been thinking a bit about the aftermath of the situation that knocked out the main character.

It is also a problem for me to solve in the future.

"…"

No, actually it is.

Even now, outside my dormitory, there are countless people clamoring for a chance to meet me just once, but there is no way I can deal with it right away.

Of course, thanks to the splendid performance in so many places, my awareness is repeating the rice cakes of rice cakes.

[Shinseong, a new star put forward by Margrave Kendride, was shocked at the same time as admission?! ]

[ Featured Article: Talking Figure Doud Campbell. who is he? ]

One unnecessarily realistic testimonial.

There is no difference between the original world and the game world that Chirashi possessed.

I smile bitterly as I look through the tabloids that are producing nonsensical information about me in just one day.

Because I am the hidden child of the Imperial Knight Commander, 'Kadra'. In fact, 'Kadera' is the strongest creature secretly raised by the academy.

Are you kidding me?

Well, there are things to be salvaged even among such trashy media.

I've been locking myself in my room for a day and collecting information about the current situation, so there's something that stands out.

[The Kendrid Margrave Family, Officially Asking Elfante Academy for Truth- ]

[Continuous opinions of experts claiming Dalian is a perfect manipulation drama-]

Is it a reaction to the skyrocketing popularity, or that public opinion is not as good as expected.

Elijah is expected to be a 'supernova' who has accumulated all kinds of achievements like a mountain even before entering the academy. Do you think the fan base is solid?

It would be difficult to receive applause even if an extra A popped out of nowhere and took it down in one blow.

'Well, that can't be helped.'

I don't care what other people say about me. My purpose is to survive and go straight to the ending.

The future me will do something about the butterfly effect that will be created by beating the main character from the first day of admission.

How to become strong in this world and how to overcome crises, he recites even with his eyes closed. It is enough to come up with a solution according to the situation.

rather than that.

[ 3 levels of interest ]

right.

Looking at the people listed in the gift-related person window, I smiled.

It must have been influenced by the [Fatal Charm] skill, but the image of me blowing away Elijah was quite impressive, so many names were stamped on the window.

Organize information by looking at personal information stamped with different words.

It seems that the liking level changes in the order of curiosity → interest → trust. It seems that there are more states up there, but right now it feels like there is only this far.

It seems that there are up to 5 stages in each state.

The tallest one is, of course, Elnor. Trust level 2.

'It's a bit strange.'

The 'important villains' in the story must have seen me, but I can't see any of their names. All that is written is only those close to extras.

There must be several reasons.

There are people who are so full of their own ego that they are not interested in others. Because he was born crazy, there must be other people with a different perspective on life.

the problem is.

Among them, the final boss who shouldn't interest me the most, why is he the most likeable?

At most, you are marking the 2nd level of trust alone compared to others who stay out of curiosity ~ interest.

why?

"…"

I don't know.

Elnor's related event is also tomorrow. If you are offered a reward, there is no reason to refuse.

I was able to subdue the main character with just one of the two skills I received as a reward. I can't wait to see what comes up this time.

[ Receive the gift reward from 'Elnor'. ]

[ 'Attribute: Tristan style swordsmanship' has been acquired! ]

＜ Mastery Info ＞

[ Attribute: Tristan style swordsmanship ] [ Rank: Basic ]

[This is the swordsmanship of the Duke of Tristan, a master of swordsmanship. ]

[ ■ You can exert a certain level of power regardless of the weapon. ]

[ Raise your attribute level to get more benefits! ]

"…this again."

That's great.

Also the gift reward from the final boss. After throwing a skill that went up to EX level at once, now it passes on high performance characteristics in one queue.

The Duke of Tristan is one of the best swordsmen in the entire empire. It can be said that the power is already guaranteed.

"…"

The problem is that most of the abilities that are entangled with your family have to do with demons.

Even if what is written right now is swordsmanship, the Tristan family is a town where ghost stories pop up the more you dig into it.

If you learn the ability derived from that side, you may have problems later in one way or another.

Well, it is.

'I fucking don't know.'

I will use it because I gave it to you.

In the first place, I am not in a position to cover cold rice with hot rice, and the performance itself is already a proven characteristic.

I leave the follow-up to the future me.

Thinking so, I accept the rest of the reward.

[ Receive the gift reward from 'Baron Armut'. ]

[ Acquire 100 points! ]

[Receive the gift reward from 'Viscount Lufen'. ]

[ Acquire 50 points! ]

.

.

.

by the way.

Somehow, the gift rewards of the rest of the humans are being replaced with a commodity called points.

What else is this?

[Points can be used in the goods shop! ]

Oh, that's right.

Are you saying that extra villains are just replaced with lump sum rewards?

It's a system that I'm familiar with if it's a goods store. I remember it as being like a helper who purchased various consumable items or buffs to make my play smoother.

[Current Points: 3,500pt]

But isn't this too much?

With 3,500 points, even if you can't do it, it's just one top-notch potion that can save even a dying person.

No matter how effective the fatal charm skill was, how much did you put your eyes on the bad guys?

"…good is good."

Thinking so, I lowered the window all the way down.

It's kind of like thinking more deeply about giving.

Even so, once you've gathered this much, it's a great achievement. At least, it's as if the means available for tomorrow's event have increased dramatically.

The moment I was about to close the window with that thought in mind, something strange passed by at the edge of my field of vision.

At the bottom of the window is a phrase embedded in black letters.

＜ Notification of gift-related person ＞

▼ Elijah Krisanax

[ Curiosity level 4 ]

[ Receipt is not possible yet! ]

"…"

why are you here

"Hmm."

He strokes his chin and ponders for a moment.

Obviously, I know that gift-related people are listed only if they are 'villains' who have 'a crush' on me.

"…hmm."

No, why are you really here?

Why is this guy who has no connection to both conditions?

As I was thinking about those thoughts, I suddenly heard a knock on my door.

"Oh, is this Mr. Doud Campbell's room?"

"…"

What a familiar voice.

"I am Elijah Krisanax. may I come in?"

"…"

He wipes his face and lets out a sigh.

It seems that the nobleman is not good enough, this guy.

I don't know why he came here out of the blue, but let's have some hope that maybe he won't back down if he keeps his mouth shut.

"I am, teacher. You already know what's inside? If you don't answer, they'll break it in?"

This isn't an asshole.

"…the teacher is a teacher who would freeze to death."

"Oh, you were inside too."

However, despite my blunt answer, only a clear voice came back from the other side.

"Could you open the door? There's something I want to tell you."

"…What are you talking about?"

"Well, maybe just get to know each other a little bit?"

"…"

Acute migraine attacks.

He let out a groan that seemed like he was about to die and held his head.

Dowd Campbell. Day 2 of admission to the academy.

The original protagonists began to stick together.

I'm sick of it, really.
