How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World 5

Chapter 5

Just as Halo Academy lives up to its reputation as one of the best educational institutions in the world, the facilities of the hostel were also amazing enough to open your eyes.

First of all, it is basic to have a single room per person, and the room itself was very spacious. It is not a one-room level, but an apartment of almost 20 pyeong.

There was even a device that could control the temperature of the dormitory, even if it was implemented by magic, and there was even a refrigerator. I don’t know what kind of principle it is, but this must have been done by magic.

‘If that’s good enough.’

This is a fantasy world, where common sense from previous lives is horribly shattered. There are a lot of monsters that drop even meteorites right now, but it’s common sense.

I looked around the overall neat hostel and walked inside. There is a soft bed, there is a desk, and everything is there.

It was very satisfying.

“yes?”

Then I found clothes neatly laid out on the bed, and it was a familiar color. I dragged the suitcase and walked towards the bed.

When I got closer and checked, it was the uniform provided by Halo Academy. The top is a white shirt, and the pants are black. In addition, there were several clothes that could be worn over the shirt.

Since Minerva is an empire with four seasons, it seemed to fit the seasons. I glanced around for a school uniform that seemed to fit my body perfectly.

‘You measured your clothes before, and you pay them right away.’

To be honest, it’s better to wear a school uniform than plain clothes. Even if you wear plain clothes, you will only wear the same clothes every day.

After a while, I put on the school uniform for one trial. There was also a full-length mirror at times, so it was convenient to check my appearance.

“Sup… no matter how you look at it…”

She looks like a girl disguised as a man. This is because her face resembles her mother, her lines are thin and pretty, and her body is also slim. Of course she’s much better than ugly.

I hung my school uniform on a hanger and unpacked it. To be honest, I only have a few books, clothes to wear on the weekend, and finally a manuscript. You must have something to take care of.

“Now is the time…”

I unpacked everything and checked my watch. The current time is 4:30. Slowly it’s time for dinner.

They wanted to enjoy a meal together with their older brothers and sisters, but they are busy. It’s impossible to call someone busy over trivial things like this for nothing.

I thought I would just starve, but I also wondered how the rice is served here, so I thought it would be a good idea to go. During that time, I should be writing the manuscript.

“Oh, right. Paper.”

So, first of all, you need to know where the manuscript paper is sold. I brought a lot of spares, just in case.

There are no pencils and erasers here, so if you make one mistake, you have to throw away the manuscript. Because of this, there were many times when I got angry or spit swear words out of my mouth.

“Puech! Oh, damn it.”

Just like right now.

I ran out of time, and while I was writing the manuscript, a sneeze came out of nowhere. The manuscript was smeared with saliva and the ink smeared.

Now that I was almost on the verge of filling one page, I had no choice but to frown. But what can I do? I’m sorry, but I have to throw it away.

I transcribed the manuscript onto a new piece of paper before tearing it up, then ripped the rest of the paper into shreds and put it in the trash.

However, he had to put down his magic pen as his concentration was broken because of the sneeze.

“The time… only half an hour has passed?”

After all, let’s have a bite to eat and take a look at the academy. I relaxed my slightly stiff body with stretching and prepared myself.

I thought about whether to wear a school uniform or not, but I didn’t feel the need, so I went out in plain clothes. She didn’t forget to bring the pocket money and student ID that her parents gave her.

By the way, the student ID is also magically processed, so it is absolutely impossible to forge. If counterfeiting was possible, the country would have taken them directly. Please note that the student ID was issued prior to admission.

“It’s really spacious.”

I toured the inside of Halo Academy in earnest. When viewed from the carriage, it looked like a castle like Hogwarts, but the inside was completely different. Even if it is just another city or village, it is at a level that is safe.

Buildings for lectures, as well as libraries, bookstores, shops, clothing stores, restaurants, blacksmiths, etc.

It really has the shape of a small town.

However, they are not randomly mixed, but are well separated. Well, if you mix this and that, you’ll feel a little cluttered.

It was as if they had designed a city at all, rather than planning to build an academy from the beginning.

rattle-

“Welcome~”

“Isn’t there a manuscript here?”

“What manuscript paper are you talking about?”

“This kind of material.”

Buying manuscript paper at the store was easy. Take the paper you prepared in advance and show it to the store owner and you’re done.

Also, the price of paper was very cheap. The widespread availability of books suggests that papermaking technology is quite well developed.

I looked around the store to see if there was more to see and then went outside. There were a lot of strange things about the stars, but not enough to get my attention.

‘Shall we go to a bookstore?’

On my way home, I suddenly remembered a bookstore I had seen on the way. I know that the building was quite large like the large bookstore in my previous life.

So far, with the help of my parents, I have only given manuscripts to publishers, but I have no idea how my books are selling. It wouldn’t hurt to see it at least once.

As a result, I turned to the bookstore on my way home. The road has already been memorized in my mind.

And…

[Currently, all volumes of ‘Zenon Biography’ are sold out. We sincerely apologize to our guests.]

“… …”

Unusual phrases were written from the entrance. It was not recently published and all volumes have been sold. Is this really true?

As I was staring at the stationery with a puzzled face, a woman next to me was annoyed with a stern voice.

“I-Ci. Really! I’ve only read 5 books yet! When the hell is it coming out?!”

“Hold on a little bit, Marie. The publishing house said they only print the Xenon biography, so it will come out someday.”

“When the hell is that one day?! You’re just saying that it’s sold out even when you come here!”

It was so noisy that I wondered about her face. I turned her head to see the woman stalking her.

She seems to be stubborn because she made an impression, but she is a cat-like beauty. She had uniquely snow-white hair, and her eyes were blue.

The man who was sweating to dry the woman was presumed to be his brother. Although the facial features were different, the hair and eye color matched perfectly.

As I was thinking about it, the woman’s hysteria continued.

“Oppa said that if he goes to Halo Academy, there will be a biography of Xenon! Are you lying to me now?”

“Well, that’s… it must have been up until yesterday.”

“How many books?”

“…the 6th volume was three, and the 7th volume didn’t exist at all.”

“Are you kidding me?! You should have bought it for me!”

“Marie. As you may know, Zenon’s biography is banned by a rule that only one can be purchased per person. Don’t you know that a gang who used to be a hoarder was arrested?”

now it’s messy

I don’t know anything else, but this is the first time I’ve heard of hoarding with books. It’s not about smuggling.

As I was laughing out loud in absurdity, a woman with white hair, unfortunately, looked at me. Then she looked even more angry than before and yelled at me.

“Hey, what are you? Did you just laugh at me?”

“number of animals!”

“Let go of this. Did he laugh at me?”

“I’m sorry. Don’t worry about it and go on your way.”

“Let go! Let go of this!!”

A woman named Marie stared at me from a distance as she was dragged along by her brother. Even as they left, I had no choice but to stand still, nailed to the feeling that a storm had passed.

Still, thanks to this, I was able to feel a little bit of what my novel is like now. I’ve already said enough to make a sajaegi.

“…let’s eat some rice.”

I think that kid is also an incoming freshman, but maybe he won’t be assigned to the same class, right?

*****

The number of freshmen at Halo Academy this year is approximately 200. Here, there are 150 students in muhak, and only 50 in literature.

If you ask why there are three times more people in muhak than literature, it is because of the characteristics of this world. A world where monsters and mana exist, and unlike in previous lives, the world relies on the power of humans rather than machines.

As a result, education has no choice but to focus on ‘Martial Arts’, and even magic is incorporated into martial arts as it is a kind of force. Because of this, I heard that even within Muhak, classes are divided according to characteristics.

If you look at it this way, you may feel that literature is being neglected, but it is absolutely not. Cases of changing the world without any force are also frequent here.

Moreover, unlike martial arts, which are close to the military, literature can be said to be a profession. If the soldier is the spear and shield that protects the country, the profession is the skeleton that supports the country.

So, what is the literature class distribution like?

how is it It’s like putting all 50 people in one class.

Eventually, Cecily and Lina were in the same class. damn it

“Ah~ Princess Cecily was also a literary person. It’s an honor to learn together.”

“Huh? Who are you?”

While Lina and Cecily were having a friendly conversation, a boy interrupted. A moment of displeasure was etched on Cecily and Lina’s faces, but they quickly disappeared.

Either way, the male student introduced himself with a soft smile.

“My name is Jackson Mirrell Kerrison. Beautiful Demon Princess and the Great Sun of the Empire.”

I snorted at the man who was already tampering with. The insides are so obvious, I’m going to explode.

You might ask if you’re overdoing it, but if you’re a person with a strong concept, you don’t get involved in conversations like that.

Let alone other people, seeing Lina and Cecily sitting side by side, they can’t even come close. I don’t know if I should call that courage or arrogance. Maybe it’s just that you’re ignorant.

When Cecily heard Jackson’s self-introduction, she tilted her head and opened her mouth to say she wasn’t interested.

“Even if I heard it, I don’t know. Do you know who Rina-sama is?”

“…Count Kerrison is one of the richest families in our Minerva Empire.”

The guy named Jackson shrugged when Lina explained about his family for him. Should I just play it the way it is? Anyway, every action was unlucky and only felt.

After that, Jackson asked in a subtly voice as he brought Cecily’s face closer to see if he had gained any confidence. Cecily’s face remained calm even as his face got closer.

“Did you hear me? How are you?”

“How are you?”

“Yes. If you are interested in me…”

“I’m not interested, so will you go away?”

“…Later. Yes?”

Of course, when Cecily openly refused, his expression changed to a bewildered expression.

Cecily said, still keeping a calm face.

“I was talking with Rina-sama, and I want to ask what kind of disrespect it is to interrupt.”

Then Cecily looked at Lina and asked.

“Lina-sama. Are all the nobles of the Minerva Empire like this?”

“No. It’s just him. You said Count Kerryson? Did you learn to flirt with the Lady in Count Kerryson?”

“Oh, no. That’s…”

“If I don’t have anything else to say, will you please go back? Class will start soon.”

“Sin, sorry!”

When Lina, who was no one else, gave instructions in a sharp voice, Jackson also apologized quickly and went back. When I checked his face, it was in a state of red and green as if it was about to explode.

If you stand still, you can go half way, but that guy ate it himself. Even so, Count Yeongsik wouldn’t be able to ‘darin’ to open up to the princess.

Aside from the fact that the neck is blown off if I do it for nothing, the family will completely collapse, so shouldn’t I be good at my conduct? If you can’t even do that, then you’re an asshole.

“Huh? You were that redhead yesterday!”

“yes?”

As I was watching the situation, I heard a chirping voice next to me. It’s a very familiar voice.

I turn my head to see what this is. The white-haired girl I met at the bookstore yesterday, Marie, was pointing at me.

‘Ah, sickness. Was he also literature?’

The sky is also uplifting. I mean, it’s the same major as a woman I didn’t like the first time I met.

Marie, a white-haired girl who didn’t know what I was trying to say, put her hand on her waist and shot me.

“You laughed at me yesterday, right?”

not really.

“Well, seeing you standing in front of the door, you must have been in the same situation as me. Isn’t it? You must have been annoyed to see that the books were sold out too.”

I have a draft, not a book. And rather than annoyed, I was baffled.

I couldn’t think of anything else to say, so I kept my mouth shut, and Marie raised one corner of her mouth and grunted. It seems that she misunderstood and made judgments on her own.

After that, she took a deep breath and opened her mouth with the nuance of favoritism.

“Huh. Yeah. What would I do if we had to fight with each other in a similar situation? I will especially forgive you for yesterday’s disrespect.”

“… …”

“Obviously, the writer doesn’t want us to fight. Besides, such a situation would damage his reputation, not us. Isn’t it?”

I am a writer, man.
