Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer chapter 12

12 – Admission Success (4)

In the end, there was only one thing I had to prove to Tsumei.

That a person named me would not pose a threat to her or her academy.

In fact, if I could convince him, Tsumei wouldn’t be against me at all.

As suspicious as it may be, she doesn’t actively judge it as a threat to be ruled out.

A person like that by nature, Tsumei.

Should I say that my innate personality itself is carefree?

‘Since I was born as a dragon, it’s not strange to be so confident… ….’

To put it in a good way, he is carefree and confident.

What if I was hiding power far beyond Tsumei’s realm?

What if she unilaterally ignored even her restraints made by her words and tried to deceive her thoroughly?

Tsumei believes in the power of her thin contract, and with her own hands has unleashed one of her dangers inside her academy.

She believed in her own strength too much.

There is no way that a dragon-like being would not be unsure of his abilities, and I am not aware that that is a matter of course.

Dragon is strong. Literally, he was endowed with overwhelming power.

A monster capable of lightly destroying a country alone, much less the individual ‘Tsumei’ was unique among them.

I’m in a situation where I’m tied up with a word, and I’m sure you’re confident that you’ll be able to subdue it before things escalate.

Actually, it’s not even a bad idea. If she makes up her mind and tries to dispose of me, I’ll be neutralized in no time with my half-powered abilities.

So, now that I am thinking this, it wasn’t really because I had any intention of doing her any harm.

On the contrary, I was genuinely worried about her.

I was very nervous, as if I was looking at a child who had been left at the water’s edge. Of course, for her age, she is a lot older than me.

‘There is no sense of danger, no sense of danger.’

Tutting and kicking my tongue, I walked down the hallway. The brief meeting in the dean’s office had already passed.

‘Hmm.’

He let out a short silence.

What comes to mind is the image of Tsumei, who immediately relaxed her expression after saying that she had made a promise.

She was so easygoing.

It means that you don’t consider situations you don’t know about in the first place.

To be honest, what do you believe in me and leave me like this?

No matter how much you swear that you won’t harm the academy, isn’t it something you don’t know? What if I suddenly swerve around and put a lightning bolt in the middle of campus?

I am very grateful that you believe in me, but it is inevitable that you will be concerned.

‘I don’t know if I’m getting scammed somewhere.’

Well, where in the world would there be a guy with a liver big enough to cheat on a gold dragon?

Anyway, it was a useless idea.

I smiled and moved on.

The place I arrived at was a tower that came out after I left the main building, crossed the campus, and moved a reasonable distance.

‘Secure a place to stay for now.’

Actually, after falling into this world, what I should be most worried about may not have been anything else.

Shortly speaking, I did not have a home.

There is no place to live. That there is no place to sleep.

It was very sad. I turned my head while pretending to wipe away the tears that didn’t even flow.

‘It’s different now.’

The tower in front of me rising high into the sky is where I will live from now on.

In other words, it was a dormitory.

As one of the most basic rights given to all students who successfully entered the academy, I was also entitled to use the dormitory as one of the special admissions students.

I passed through the entrance of the tower without hesitation, and passed by the lobby, fiddling with the card key given to me.

-Now, take this.

-This is…… ?

-Anyway, you’re also a special admissions student. If you use this inside the ‘tower’, you will be able to move to the private room given to you.

Around the time she left the dean’s office, Tsumei handed me this card key with those words.

It was also something I remembered seeing in the game.

The main characters as well as the playable characters are naturally given after the entrance ceremony.

Should I say some kind of key?

With this card key, players can enter the dormitory.

It was a bonus to double as a student ID.

And again, maybe, as I remember, when you get this key, you’ll be given the title of ‘Freshman of the Academy’…….

“…… Hmm.”

I waited for a while, but the blue spear that gave me the main quest didn’t come up again.

‘I can do that.’

I nodded indifferently.

Anyway, since the game became a reality, I wonder if the title system was naturally erased.

I didn’t really need that title either, so it didn’t matter too much. Since it was a title given as a reward for completing a tutorial in the first place, its performance was so-so.

At that point, I looked around.

It was because there were some strangely intense gazes that I felt when I entered the lobby.

‘It’s all different.’

The owners of the eyes were all students like me. So, freshmen of the same jockey.

I scratched the back of my head feeling embarrassed.

Is it because he showed such an impressive appearance at the entrance ceremony?

A variety of emotions were floating in their eyes.

Starting with light interest, curiosity and questioning.

Occasionally, there were also those who were reluctant or completely indifferent.

I understood all those gazes.

“…… Great.”

No, I had no choice but to understand.

It wasn’t that I didn’t know how I would look in their eyes.

At the time of her entrance ceremony, Tsumei manipulated (?) His subordinates to keep his promise to me even in the midst of chaos.

She spurned Helena to make me her 4th exception.

Students present could not get an answer until the end.

In a very suspicious situation, there must have been three special admissions this year.

Even when they recalled such suspicions, they only exchanged glances with each other, and no one had the courage to ask direct questions to Helena, the actual second person in the academy.

But that didn’t make the doubt go away. Rather, it would have grown if it had grown.

They will be curious about my identity.

Thinking about why that bastard suddenly showed up and was recognized as a special admissions student is bound to come to mind.

‘Well, the appearance should have been extravagant.’

The memory of that time came to mind.

My clothes have become rags, and there are light burn marks all over my body, as if I had been struck by lightning.

I kicked through the main auditorium entrance with such a flurry that I was about to collapse at any moment. It was normal to be upset.

A first impression must have been strongly imprinted.

To all the freshmen who were present.

It wasn’t what I wanted, but what should I do now that things have already turned out this way.

I didn’t even want to worry about reputation or image, so I turned away from my classmates’ eyes and headed for a corner. I was going to use the card key to go to my private room.

‘Anyway, there were some results, so let’s rest for today.’

It was a very tiring day.

Even if I put everything else away, I feel like that burning pain will remain as an unforgettable memory.

It was creating unwanted memories. Damn it…….

‘Did I just say that I could draw it in the air?’

I shook off my thoughts for a while, and I raised my gaze slightly while holding the card key.

Top. Lobby in it. Look up at the ceiling there.

As the game itself is an academy, this tower (dormitory) had no choice but to be the background for quite a few major episodes.

And, of course, this tower was an interesting structure.

‘That’s right…….’

It’s a different feeling to see it through the description in the game and to see it in person.

It was fresh. The feeling of floating in midair.

I felt that way, even though I must have been stepping on the floor.

That sense made me vaguely guess the identity of this tower.

‘It feels similar to a disconnected space, but it’s a little different.’

I squinted my eyes and stared at the ceiling.

Obviously, the size when viewed from the outside was plausible, but the magical tricks contained within this tower would not be at that level.

All hundreds of students are given a private space completely separated from the outside world. That was the meaning of the ‘highest space magic’ that constituted this tower.

How can it be light? Even the magic tower of the system did not have this level of spatial magic.

Iljindae, the 3rd Mage Tower, which is also called the headquarters of modern magic science, ironically, is less than one dormitory built by a dragon.

With the thought that it was very funny, I lowered the card key without hesitation.

Anyway, today I did as much as I could. At least I think so.

It’s still only at the stage of getting to know each other (?), But I’ve made a connection with Tsumei.

I was able to gain enough trust not to be judged as a dangerous molecule right now.

On the first day, this is not enough, so it overflows.

‘So, I need to rest now.’

It’s hardly a reward for me, but at least I wanted to relieve my tired body a little bit from being submerged in warm water. Are you okay with that?

Ugh-

Just as I was thinking about that, the card key just worked and created a crack the size of a door in the air.

“Oh.”

I let out a short exclamation and walked away.

This is the private room of an academy freshman, which could only be seen through the screen in the game, its fragmentary illustration, or the occasional short description.

‘Looking at the description, it looks like you could chew on a suite in a decent 5-star hotel.’

What does it really feel like?

I suddenly became curious. Will the bed be soft?

I took a step towards the rift with small expectations.

And.

“Wait a minute.”

From noble mtl dot com

It was then that I heard a clear voice from behind me as I was about to move across the rift.

“Huh?”

I turned my head without thinking. I wanted someone to call me, so it was a reflex action.

So, the response was delayed.

Shuuk!

The white legs are stretched out.

“What—.”

My backstory didn’t follow.

Quaang!!!

Simply because it was drowned out by the louder noise.

Thuduk, patter…….

The attack, which was not the one that brushed my cheek, stopped halfway through the wall just beyond.

The ominous sound of weakly falling fragments of a slightly smashed wall tickled my ears.

Chills ran down my spine. Didn’t I just get caught?

Forcibly moving my stiff head, I looked straight ahead.

I don’t know if he attacked me or the wall, but somehow, out of nowhere, he met his gaze with the person who raised his leg.

…… It was an unusual pair of white and half gold eyes.

Then ivory-colored hair slicked back into sight.

“… ….”

I couldn’t help but put on a blank expression for a moment.

Isn’t the expression ‘taken away from your eyes’ designed to be used in this situation?

Looks like a goddess made it herself, golden eyes that look like they could be sucked in.

She was someone I knew.

“Can I talk to you for a minute?”

Once again, a low voice resounds.

The girl was looking up at me with a very disapproving expression.

She was a saint.

It is a symbol of purity.

It was a miracle that the Goddess sent to this land.

“I know it’s rude, but I’ll ask you straight ahead.”

She glanced at me as she sighed low.

He licks his lips, and then adds a small word.

“…… What is your relationship with the extinct dragon?”

Among the many main characters in this game, he was a particularly popular character, and another special admissions student to the academy.

Beatrice Louise.

There was no other reason for her entering the academy.

The last dragon left in this world. In other words, to monitor the trend of “Tsumei”.

‘Ah, damn it.’

I reflexively spat out a curse.

It was inevitable.

…… Because at this point in time, I was a first-class parachute who, by all accounts, was favored (?) By the Gold Dragon.

A parachute that was exceptionally placed at the academy by a dragon that the Holy Church defined as a monster.

And, the real power of the Holy Church is sure to be suspicious of such a parachute more than anyone else.

Unfortunately for me, the first meeting between a person with a special ability and a saintess felt like that.
