184 – Messy (4)
– Trap, trudge…
“”…….””
As I walked through the academy annex in silence for a while, avoiding the gazes of the androids scattered here and there, familiar scenes began to come into view.
‘Justia…’
Of course, more than half of the reason was because of Justia.
The annex was the secret meeting place that Justinia and I often used.
Justia and I, who were serving as president and vice president respectively, had many perspectives at the time.
This was because there were a significant number of people who viewed the academy reform we were attempting as a thorn in their eyes.
In addition, there were many people who were dissatisfied with the prospect of Justia and me, who claimed to be her hunting dog, staying close to each other.
Thanks to this, we usually continued to meet in the quiet annex during break time rather than in the president’s office.
‘…Sometimes I lay down in that field.’
What is truly regrettable is that that was the point when I began to transfer my feelings to Himari.
‘There was a time when I ate a packed lunch in an empty classroom…’
If I hadn’t made that choice, would I have felt the same way when I spent time with Justia?
‘…Then suddenly, students came in and went into the cabinet to hide.’
For some reason, my heart aches.
‘I don’t really remember, but Justia seemed very happy at that time.’

I have never thought about it again because there is no point in regretting my past choices, but for some reason, I can understand it now.
I regret my past choices.
– Kang Ha-neul is an idiot.
ㄴ Yuriel is kind.
ㄴ Hey, what happens to me if I do this?
While we were talking in an empty classroom, the graffiti that Justia had forced me to draw on her desk happened to catch my eye.
‘…It’s already in the past.’
Of course, there was nothing I could do about it, and since the task in front of her was urgent, I turned my eyes away from the graffiti that had half of her handwriting and mine in it and walked quietly.
“Ugh…”
“……?”
But just as I was about to exit the hallway.
– Sigh…
“…What is it?”
Suddenly, Rumia, who had been walking next to me, collapsed into her seat as if she had collapsed.
“Why are you doing that?”
“……..”
“…Do you have a headache again?”
Thanks to her slightly embarrassed expression, she leaned down and asked her a question, but there was no answer from her Lumia.
“…………”
She was just staring ahead, kneeling on her knees, with a blank expression in her eyes.
“Shh…”
I knew from the beginning that the situation wasn’t very good, but if it gets to this level, we’ll both be in trouble.
– Jiiiiing…
To make matters worse, you start to hear the sounds of androids approaching from beyond the hallway.
‘…Kyureuk is still unstable.’
I wanted to swallow Lumia and move on, but this guy has become quite unstable since her last awakening.
Therefore, if he swallows her Lumia now, she may be absorbed as is.
“…Keuung.”
Thanks to you, I sighed for a moment and then stood up, carrying Lumia, who had quietly sat down in her seat, on my back.
Of course, I was quite a weakling since I was young, but I was basically an aspiring hero. This can be lifted easily.
‘…It’s light.’
And it is no exaggeration to say that she had been living in poverty for several months, but Lumia was much lighter than expected.
“I’m going to run straight to the dormitory like this.”
“…..”
“Hold on tight.”
Anyway, I left her hallway with her on my back, and muttered as I looked at her smoking dormitory in the distance.
– Sigh…
After a while, still silent, her slender arms quietly wrapped around my chest and stomach.
“Then…”
In that situation, I quietly made up my mind and tried to run forward.
– Jeee…
– Who are you there?
Soon after seeing the androids spread out around the scene, he paused for a moment and hid himself behind the wall again.
‘…If I just ran, I would definitely be found out.’
It seems that the power of those guys created with bloody taxes has been further replenished.
Even though so many decisive weapons have been deployed, have we still not been able to resolve the issue with the invaders?
The design looks a bit funny, like a penguin, but they are really strong.
The second-year practical class is about forming a team of four people to subdue one of their aircraft, which has been deteriorated by about 10 times. That’s enough to give you a rough idea of their performance.
In that case, the level of the intruders who have withstood the mass offensive by those guys so far seems to be much higher than I had assumed.
‘…Then it can’t stay like this.’
For this reason, I quietly closed my eyes and, for the first time in quite a while, brought up a system window in front of my eyes.
‘Isn’t there something useful in the store…?’
For reference, the skills are pre-paid with penalties in order to save their use as much as possible for the final battle.
So, in order to reduce consumption as much as possible, you need to purchase something useful with the few points you have left…
“……?”
As I looked around the store with that thought in mind, I soon quietly tilted my head.
‘…Many have already been purchased.’
More than half of the products, including the most expensive products at the top, had already been purchased and were left blank.
‘Are these the things that Justia bought…’
Over the past few months, I’ve accumulated enough points to buy just one product, but seeing as I’ve bought more than half of the products, it’s Justia, after all.
By the way, the most expensive product was the 99999pt mental erosion defense ticket that protected my mind when I awakened?
[The product has been purchased.]
I tried to suppress the feeling that I was about to feel bitter again, and soon chose the product that was most useful for the current situation from among the remaining products and purchased it.
– Pazuzuzuzuzu…
At the same time, Lumia and I’s bodies began to gradually blur.
“”……””
Of course, I did not buy a product that becomes transparent for a certain period of time.
It’s too expensive to buy with the points I have, and if Lumia and I don’t get naked, the clothes will just be floating in the air, which makes it even more suspicious.
And crucially, I know this because I experienced it during my second year of practicum.
Those guys track their opponents by detecting infrared rays, so anyone with decent stealth skills can see through them.
‘…Then all you have to do is use it in reverse.’
That’s why what I bought was none other than ‘infrared interference wavelength’.
Because it was relatively low among the items, I was able to purchase it for myself and Lumia.
“…Sigh.”
I took a deep breath for a moment and then stepped forward, and for a moment there was silence around me.
– Ji-ing?
– Error? Error?
Soon the androids began to quietly tilt their heads and mutter.
Since it is not a deteriorated version, I think I have the ability to notice that something is wrong.
– Turp, trudge…
But since that decision was not meant to be an attack, that was the moment when I quietly started to walk forward while holding my breath.
– Emergency, emergency?
– Code upgrade, code upgrade.
– Code black occurs. Permission to kill was given.
The androids’ red eyes suddenly turn black and they begin to pull out guns from their arms.
– Jiiiiing..
Thanks to that, I stopped in my seat because I was a little scared, but the guys didn’t pay any attention to me and started rushing toward the dormitory all at once.
“…Ah.”
Leaving behind me, who had just wiped out the remaining points with two touches.
“f*ck you.”
What kind of crazy guy broke into the dormitory and gave a kill order that the heroes wouldn’t listen to even if they asked for it?
– Kkook…
With such doubts in mind, I was standing in a corner with Lumia, who was on my back and secretly hugging me tighter, and then I began to slowly walk forward again.
“……..”
For some reason, it seemed like Rumia, who was on her back, was quietly shaking her body and rubbing her body, but she tried to ignore it.

– Cracking, crackling…
“Uh, uh…”
Meanwhile, at that time, somewhere in the first-year girls’ dormitory.
＞ Dear, why are you suddenly silent?
＞ Yesterday, people wearing strange suits went to school. It seems like they are people from the company…!
＞ I didn’t know things would get this big…!
In a fairly dark room, very similar to Pandora’s, a girl with her hair disheveled was in her pajamas, wrapped in a blanket, chatting with someone with trembling hands.
＞ What should I do now?
＞ Wouldn’t it be better to tell the truth now? Then…….
＞ Hey, are you there?
＞ Dear, have you abandoned me?
＞ Oh my…
However, no matter how many chats she sent, there was no response from the person who suddenly hung up, so the girl ended up putting her smartphone down in front of her in tears.
– Kugwagwagwagwang…!!!
“…..Sigh!?”
It was at that moment that a deafening noise suddenly rang out from behind her quiet room.
“Hmm.”
“Nunununununununu, who…!?!?”
Thanks to this, the girl froze for a moment, but then turned her head slightly and asked a question to the unidentified old man who appeared through the wall, her body trembling.
“…Minamoto Noah.”
“……!!!”
Her diamond, which was shaking off the concrete fragments that had fallen on her body while looking back and forth between her and the picture of her that she was holding, soon quietly raised the corner of her mouth and turned to her in return. Asked her question.
“Is it you?”
“aaa…
Then she tilted her head for a moment, and then Diamond picked up her net that was on her back.
“…Bad children who lie should be punished.”
“Heeek…!”
The girl’s complexion, which was already pale, was starting to become even more pale.
“All the way there…!”
“……?”
An angry sound echoed from the end of the hallway.
“Get away from that kid!”
“…Hoo.”
This was the appearance of Miracle Shine, the second-ranked hero who was the homeroom professor of Class 1 and Class 2 of the Academy’s first year, and who was acting as the substitute for Class 1 during Oh Ji-seok’s absence.
