After leaving the dean’s office, Yohan felt a little different from ‘I came out of somewhere’. Rather, it felt like I had opened a door to somewhere. For example, the gates of hell or something like that.
And the cause was a 2-meter-tall swordsmanship teacher who grabbed him by the collar. He pulled John up to his nose and shouted while spitting.
“Ah, I really am because of this guy!”
“Cuck. Kut. Kheuk.”
just- just- just-
As soon as she left the dean’s office, Bastia fed Johan a heartless honey chestnut. It was not a night that could be prevented or avoided. The swordsman’s fist, which was brutally beaten down, had to be seen as an assault rather than a corporal punishment.
And the reason John was able to avoid fainting was thanks to Ida clinging to Bastia’s arm.
“No, Sam. stop hitting me Oppa Yohan, you’re not tall.”
“I make a hump as much as my height will decrease.”
Bastia actually tried to do just that. If only the dean’s voice hadn’t burst out in the dean’s office.
“for a moment! Mr. Bastia, please come back!”
“… shit.”
Bastia seemed to have become a mild sheep only to the dean.
He muttered a curse and entered the dean’s office again.
After Bastia disappeared, Ida looked at John’s expression and said,
“it’s okay?”
“… it’s okay.”
Then, Ida screamed at Miri.
“hey. you! I saw it all!”
“… What?”
“A while ago, John was dueling, and you intervened and kicked him with your feet like this!”
Ida stretched out her foot as if imitating Miri. It was a kick that wasn’t even similar.
“to be.”
“why.”
“Let the two of us have a little talk.”
“yes… ? which two? … Maybe with my brother and that girl?”
“yes.”
When Yohan nodded, Ida guessed the matter.
From a young age, John had no interest in girls. It seemed that there was only one reason why John should be alone with a girl from the lowly class.
For a moment, Ida gave Miri a pitiful look. Then he whispered to John.
“Are you going to grab it where no one is watching?”
John did not appreciate Ida’s imagination. After thinking briefly, he brought his mouth to Ida’s ear.
Then Ida, who had heard John’s words, put on a more subtle expression.
“why?”
“I thought if I didn’t apologize, the dean would scold me later.”
“He is a genius. What are you apologizing for?”
“Still, the dean said he didn’t do anything wrong. You get less punishment if you look good.”
Ida thought of John’s words and nodded. Ida, who glared at Miri a few times, hesitantly walked away.
John patted Evangeles and said.
“You, please leave me. It’s late.”
“… Okay. I’ll come to your room later.”
With Evangeles and the jackal gang gone, only the two of them were left in the hallway.
Miri looked at Yohan and started walking down the hallway, and Yohan quietly followed her. When they came down to the first floor, Miri spoke in a steady tone.
“I won’t apologize for coming along.”
“Not because of that.”
Yohan grabbed Miri’s arm as she was about to walk out of the building. John looked at her with a steady expression and said.
“Talk to me for a minute.”
It was John’s last remaining hope.
The hope that Mi-ri is deliberately ‘pretending not to know’ her.
The main strategy underlying ‘Savior from another world’ is to thoroughly hide the fact that he came from another world. Just like John did.
If Miri did not pretend to know herself because of such an attack, then it was understandable.
“Now, it’s just the two of us.”
Miri’s head went up.
Towards the three moons floating in the night sky.
It was already late.
There was no human presence at the entrance of the administrative building.
Following Yohan’s suggestion, Miri crouched down on the stairs where a large wing-shaped structure could be seen. In the quiet moonlit academy, John’s words could be heard clearly as they sat side by side.
“I want to apologize.”
“… Aren’t you going to apologize?”
“yes.”
“… The thing about attacking Master Jackal?”
“no. About what happened before coming here. already. I do not know? I am John, John Jeong.”
“… … ???”
She looked up and down John with a suspicious look.
It was a moment when John’s billions collapsed. Then she looked closely at John’s face.
‘Is this someone who knows me?’
I didn’t remember not looking closely. It was definitely the first time I saw it.
“Have you ever seen our performance?”
“no.”
“So this must be your first time?”
“It’s my first time, but I didn’t get to see the performance properly. It’s only about the ending comment.”
John added an excuse.
“you… I didn’t know you were going to perform.”
Miri’s doubts deepened.
“Do you like to make fun of others?”
“very. Why are you asking?”
“At this point in time, I think it would be funny if you said you fell in love at first sight with me.”
“You can laugh. It doesn’t matter if you think so.”
In fact, there was something I knew because I had died once. Compared to the laughter made by the person you loved, everything else is meaningless.
But Miri didn’t laugh.
A circus troupe belonging to the Frodo family, the Hanabi performance troupe.
They often go on tours. And, like now, after the performance, there was no one who was cold to her.
Miri had a certain way of dealing with such opponents. If the opponent was a commoner, he would avoid it, and if he was a commoner, he would kick his feet.
But, like now, the opponent had never been a noble.
“Are you a little sudden?”
“no. It is very sudden.”
The boy named John was looking at him with steady eyes. She wanted to ask if she didn’t know that she was a lowly citizen.
‘What is this noble boy who seems to have gone half way?’
There was only one thing Miri was concerned about. Just in case, this man uses his family to ‘buy’ himself.
Even though she was born as a lowly citizen, it was not her view of life to fix her bad luck through a man.
She sat down, bent over until her chest touched her knees, then straightened out. There is no member who is not flexible in body, but she is especially flexible.
‘Should I just kick it with my feet?’ There was a brief temptation to
I was sitting next to John, but it didn’t matter.
She had about five stances that allowed her to kick opponents even if they weren’t standing facing each other.
What blocked her kick was not the positional relationship between the two, but the common sense of this world. A lowly citizen kicks a nobleman and can’t handle it.
More than anything, she had an affair ahead of her.
“Aren’t you laughing? He said it would be funny.”
“Iknow, right. It’s not funny when I hear it.”
Then John spoke in a trembling voice.
“Have you ever lost your memory or something?”
“My memory is good. What happened to me?”
John spoke frankly.
“You were my first love.”
Miri could admit. It was kind of funny this time.
“… 30 minutes ago?”
“Thirty years ago.”
Miri decided to erase her preconceived notions.
Even nobles know how to joke.
“Do you usually flirt with women with comments like that?”
“Something like that… Nope.”
Seeing Yohan with a lonely expression on her face, Miri snorted. It will be around this time. It’s time to talk nonsense about staying together tonight.
However, John’s words that followed were different from Miri’s expectations. Thanks to that, she missed John’s words a little.
“yes?”
“I asked who gave you your name.”
“… What’s your name all of a sudden?”
“Are you a wizard named Ong?”
She has given up on understanding this young boy. It wasn’t a hard give up. Because I didn’t really understand it from the beginning.
“That is something you should ask your heavenly parents. I’m honored that you’ve taken an interest in my life before I was even born. I’m busy with work, so I’ll step back first.”
“Are you busy?”
“yes. A nobleman’s son messed up the party table.”
The nuance that it was annoying was clear.
Miri shook her butt and stood up. Then he started walking towards the auditorium.
John stopped following her and grabbed his feet.
“My dorm room is room 1205 in building C. there… building on fire. 12th floor.”
“What?”
“Come to me if you need help.”
“It’s very reassuring. We’re leaving tomorrow evening, so that won’t happen.”
It was a mocking reply. If a female circus member goes to the male dormitory of the academy, it is the entrance cut.
Her hair in a tight ponytail swayed like a horse’s tail with each step she took.
“There is no point in following me. Until tomorrow evening, no one except for the circus members is allowed to enter. If you like our performance, please watch our encore performance tomorrow.”
The footsteps that followed stopped. She gave it a high score because the lady from the aristocratic family didn’t pursue her relentlessly.
And John was accurately reading Miri’s feelings.
‘It must have been really annoying.’
The language of this world is not Korean.
And when the language changes, the intonation and pronunciation also change.
But her tone was the same.
When it doesn’t match your own intentions, even expressions that seem to be subtly sarcastic.
It was a short conversation, but it was unmistakable.
that was in advance
‘Maybe even the hairstyle is the same.’
Yohan couldn’t easily turn his head away from Miri who was moving away. After a while, Yohan felt dizzy and stood on the wing-shaped statue. I couldn’t quite figure out what to do.
He stood motionless until it was time to call. As if it had become another statue in front of the statue.
‘That’s something you should ask your parents in heaven.’
‘I’m honored that you’re interested in what happened before I was even born.’
This means that in her memory, there is a history of her entire life. Unlike himself who became 18-year-old Johann Esperts.
Like many of the characters here.
At the same time, she doesn’t know herself. As if they weren’t from another world. As if it were a character originally placed in this worldview.
This alone was complicated in my head.
But that wasn’t the only thing that captivated John.
He was recalling the text written at the beginning of his system log.
[Name: Johan Esperts]
[Class Rating: Main Character]
[Strength: 2, Agility 4, Sense 7, Health 5, Charisma 4, Wisdom 8]
It’s something I’ve been obsessed with for a long time. During [First March], I felt a strange sense of incongruity every time I looked at my system log. And now I could see the true nature of that sense of incongruity.
The identity of that sense of incongruity was not his ability. Right above it, the item called [Class Rating].
Actually, it’s not a good part. Usually, when you play a game, the main thing you see is the change in the character’s stats according to growth or weapon replacement. That’s why he, who did numerous tests while developing the game, missed this part.
[Class Rating].
This means the weight of the character in the overall story. And what should have been written on Johann Esperts was written on Miri, who had been with her until just now.
[Name: Miri Inheritor]
[Class Rating: Protagonist]
It was still hard to believe.
In the game he made, ‘Savior from Another World’, Johann Esperts was not the main character.
