7 – Episode 2. The entrance ceremony of chaos.

<7>

‘Teacher’ is the role the player assumes in Legends of Academia.

Select students to enter the special department – that is, turn the lottery – and nurture them to solve the crisis that is approaching one after another in Academia.

In the process, they also experience events that identify and solve students’ problems, increase their credibility, unlock exclusive stories, and build bonds with characters.

In the beginning, the teacher’s character was expressed very vaguely to make it easier for players to understand.

However, after 3 years of service, a character has been developed to some extent in ‘Teacher’.

The outfit is always a white shirt and suit pants.

It’s awkward, but it’s strangely not offended.

It’s playful, but serious at the same time.

A character who is usually passive but does it when he does.

In short, it means that you are the protagonist of a typical collectible RPG game.

And one thing is clear, the teacher I remember was a man.

From the interactions and descriptions between the teacher and the characters, and from the occasional event illustrations, there is no doubt that he is a man.

But in this world… It looks like something different

Because a human who was completely identical to the ‘teacher’ in my memory was standing in front of me with only his gender changed.

“A part-time job?”

“… Yes.”

“Sihyuk is sincere. You are a perfect student.”

“Not really.”

Six days have passed since the completely chaotic entrance ceremony, and it is now Sunday.

On the way back to the dormitory after a part-time job at Cheonryonggak, I ran into a teacher with his hands behind his back.

“Could you give me a minute?”

“… If only for a moment.”

After I agreed, the teacher chuckled and threw something at me. Instinctively, I took it and checked it, and it was still a cold can of cola.

“Thank you.”

“No, thank you. You gave me your precious time.”

Shall we take a short walk? The teacher said that and stood next to me. After walking for about 5 minutes without saying a word, we arrived at the courtesy park where we fought together with Suisei.

When I looked around, construction was in full swing here and there. Replacing frozen dead trees and replacing messy floor blocks.

The teacher found a good bench and sat down, tapping the empty seat next to him. After I sat down, the teacher asked me in a worried tone.

“It’s like trauma, isn’t it?”

“No.”

When I was surrounded by irregulars and fought, I was surprisingly calm.

Lee Si-hyeok didn’t have that kind of steely mental setup, so he might be the same nature I have.

It’s nothing to worry about.

“So what is your business?”

“Because I am also a teacher. I came here once because I was worried about Sihyuk. How is she doing?”

“Not very pleasant.”

Homeroom teacher. Kate was furious when I returned.

In the midst of the chaotic entrance ceremony, I became the only missing person at Dongbu Second High School, so it was understandable. I’m glad you came back safely, I cried and shouted, “What would have happened if I got hurt?”

Because of that, I have 30 minutes left after school every day to write a letter of self-reflection.

“Ha ha, that must have been difficult.”

The teacher laughed pleasantly, and then she took a sip of her canned coffee. He then digs into her pocket and pulls out her e-cigarette.

As I remember. It’s a smoker, but it’s in front of students, so I’m somehow quitting smoking, so the setting was that I was replacing it with an e-cigarette.

“Is it okay?”

“It’s not even the beginning of the year.”

“Oh, Sihyuk is very understanding. There are quite a few people who don’t understand that part. It’s not a cigarette, it’s a smoking cessation aid.”

I was a smoker myself, so I fully understand that feeling.

Of course, now that I have entered Lee Si-hyuk’s body and got rid of nicotine addiction, I don’t think I’ll ever talk about it.

Once you bite into it, it’s hard to stop.

There were quite a few events related to the teacher’s e-cigarette.

The hard-nosed schoolboy characters tried to steal the e-cigarette, saying it was a cigarette, and thestudent who thinks he is standing above the head of an adult.

Answer in moderation. Moderate questions delinquent characters insisted on giving it to them too. Among them, there are a little dangerous characters who say, ‘Please blow the teacher’s smoke on me’…

Anyway.

“Actually, I’m not very happy either. At most, as soon as I returned to Academia, I was too distracted.”

The scent of e-liquid, different from the acrid smell of tobacco, spreads through the park at night. Strawberry? No, it’s cherry flavored.

“Is it because of Edea’s work?”

“There is that too.”

The teacher took another sip of the canned coffee and she let out a deep sigh.

“Si-Hyuk-ah, the teacher is in an ambiguous middle manager position, right? However, the high-ranking person who appointed the teacher to the position suddenly retired, and the newcomers are quarreling with each other every day.”

“… So?”

I replied in a troublesome tone.

Acting the typical attitude of a smart .

I plan to fix my personality when dealing with teachers for a while with this.

The teacher is sharp.

A small slip of the tongue can cause unnecessary misunderstanding about me. For now, it would be better to talk less and talk moderately.

“Just, yes.”

“… Are you here to complain?”

“It’s cold. Well, that’s like kids these days.”

Oops.

The teacher got up from his seat making a strange noise and turned around to look down at me.

“It’s not my taste to turn things around, so I’ll tell you right away. The teacher said She came to Academia at the request of Plato. Even in this academy city, the teacher is looking for a child who is exceptional, and she is given the role of nurturing her as a future financial resource.”

“Teacher?”

“hahahaha… That attitude still hurts…. Well, the reason I was chosen is because of my abilities.”

Ability.

That was the same setting as the basis for a ‘teacher’ to exist as a ‘teacher’.

The teacher’s ability level, which is publicly disclosed, is E grade.

A power that is ambiguous to classify as a special ability that makes the emotions of those around you a little more comfortable.

However, the reality that is revealed as the story progresses is completely different.

The absurd ability to bring out a student’s full potential.

One of only three EX-ranked talents in the world of Legend of Academia.

That was the identity of this teacher in front of me.

“Ability?”

“Yes.”

“What kind of ability is that?”

At the same time as the answer, a bit of anxiety welled up inside me.

This woman. You’re not going to tell me, a student you’ve only met for less than a week, what your abilities are, right?

… No way.

The identity of the teacher’s ability is a secret known only to Plato throughout the academy.

She’s been entrusted with Plato not to tell anyone else, so she probably puts it in her proper capacity-

“I mean, teacher. I can raise the student’s ability level!”

“Yes?”

I didn’t.

… Is the teacher in this world more than he imagined, is her head a flower garden?

Whatever she does, she has already decided how to react.

It doesn’t cross the line, but it’s moderately cheeky, and it’s a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of.

“… Have you been drinking?”

“Ha ha ha. It’s a joke. It’s a joke. You don’t have to be so serious, Sihyuk.”

The teacher tapped me lightly on the shoulder and continued talking.

“It’s just the ability to help psychological relaxation. Because the students, especially the talented people of Academia like us, have many delicate parts. I often grow by leaps and bounds just by putting my mind at ease. How do you feel?”

“Not really.”

“hahahaha…. Is that so?”

The teacher put on a puzzled expression and gulped down the remaining can of her coffee.

The teacher made a harsh sound effect called Pu-ha, and she soon opened her mouth with a serious voice.

“Teacher has been appointed as the homeroom teacher of the ‘Special Department’. It is a place where students gather after school and follow the curriculum that nurtures their potential.”

“… By the way.”

“Would you like to join this department too?”

Okay.

The first goal has been cleared. If I enter the special department and make close contact with the teacher, my abilities will grow in an instant.

But first…

“… I will refuse.”

“Why?”

“I don’t think I, a D-class, can survive in such a place.”

Lee Si-hyeok is a D-class person.

He, like other D-ranked characters, has a setting where he is unsure of himself.

That setting will remain in the form of a record and will be written in Lee Si-hyeok’s student record book. The teacher would have confirmed that and contacted me.

First of all, it was necessary to act according to that record. After entering the Department of Specialties, I could gradually move according to my personality, saying, “I changed thanks to the Department of Specialties,” But not right now.

“Sihyuk… “

The teacher looked at my face for a moment with a pitiful look, and then she grabbed my hand tightly.

“For now, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear the answer. Think about it later Because in my opinion, Sihyuk has enough potential.”

“…… Yes.”

It seems like there is nothing you can do about it. But I think it’s good to have expectations in my heart.

I nodded with my head bowed as if to hide my embarrassment.

“Then will it wake up soon?”

“I see. Because tomorrow is Monday.”

We left the park and went back the same way we came.

After walking for about 10 minutes in silence, I arrived in front of my dormitory.

Just before parting, the teacher opened her mouth as if thinking of something.

“My name is Joo Ji-young.”

“Yes?”

“My name. It seems like I am the only one who knows about Sihyuk.”

“…… Ah yes.”

After answering awkwardly, the teacher, Joo Ji-young, smiled and waved.

“See you next time, Sihyuk.”

“See you later, Mr. Joo Ji-young.”

The entrance to the dormitory is closed.

Right after Lee Si-hyeok disappeared in the elevator, Ju Ju-young’s pale smile disappeared like a lie.

‘Lee Si-hyeok.’

He’s hiding something.

Feeling her instincts whispering to him, Ju Ji-young turned her steps away.
