124. Capgras Syndrome
It is unlikely that this continent knows about Capgras Syndrome.
Also, I only have simple knowledge about it, but I am ignorant about the causes and treatments.
But, more than that.
“Where is the professor?”
The first priority was to subdue Arya, who was running rampant and running towards me.
Quang!
“Kuu!”
Even if you use protection magic with the Dark Spirit, it can be easily smashed by Arya’s clenched fists.
As if she wasn’t a regressor for nothing, she stormed in showing off her colorful skills.
Thump! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Even if you use wind magic on her body to increase the distance as much as possible and float up, golden energy rises from the soles of her feet and quickly catches up with her as she accelerates.
‘Have you already mastered the Yellow Dragon?’
A top-notch skill that is the most efficient and highly effective among mobile devices.
The scariest thing about Hwangryongbo is that it is not restricted by space.
As Arya steps her foot into the air, a golden platform rises beneath her, allowing her to leap into the air.
With just a few leaps, Aria blew her body away with wind magic and grabbed me.
Just like that, her fists were thrust down from the top.
“I will not kill you. That way I’ll know where the professor is.”
Wow!
Instinctively, she raised her hands to block the harsh impact. At least that’s the best defense I can do.
Kududeuk!
Both of her arms are twisted and broken by Arya’s blow. His eyebrows twitched slightly in pain and he clenched his teeth.
It’s not over yet.
I was pushed by the shock and fell straight down. Although she crouches down as best she can, with the help of the Dark Spirit, she casts her protective spell again.
Maybe it’s because her arm is twisted.
The magic doesn’t manifest itself at will.
There is a limit to receiving me from this shock with the magic that the Dark Spirit used alone.
I had no choice but to endure it, but right before I hit the ground, a huge golden butterfly appeared from underneath and received me softly.

Not only that, but a light that lightly heals broken hands.
[Four, higher spirits?]
It was the startled exclamation of the Dark Spirit, but I turned my gaze to the other side.
There, Erica, who also followed along, was dealing with magic with the spirit.
“Are you okay?”
“To some extent.”
The two of us exchanged simple confirmations, and our heads turned at the same time.
Aria, who landed cleanly, was still glaring at us like she was going to kill us.
“Yes, even Professor Erica is copying it.”
“…… What?”
Erika looked at me as if she meant something, and I explained briefly.
“We are thinking that we are being imitated by someone other than us.”
“Are you saying there was an illusion spell?”
I shook my head at Erica, who was preparing to use purification magic.
It’s not an aria to be caught by illusion magic.
“It is a kind of mental illness.”
“… ….”
“I don’t know why Arya was pushed into this situation, but I need to suppress it first.”
“It’s very tricky.”
Erika bites her lip as she writes. The situation itself, that she should not be killed and subdued, was quite difficult.
The opponent is a master who waged a bloody battle with the sorcery judges alone.
Even though Arya had the upper hand in terms of matchmaking and the referee was injured.
On this continent, there were only a handful of people capable of such an eccentricity.
[I think I need to deal with mental magic.]
The Black Mage’s suggestion was quite persuasive. It’s hard to win physically right now, so it’s better to go to the mental system.
Especially because it must be in a very unstable state right now.
But to do so, a battle line was needed. It wasn’t easy to make Arya’s gap with the two of us.
“Sleep!”
Since this was an academy, people naturally flocked to it as time passed.
The professors had already noticed the commotion and were pouring in.
“What is this!”
“Ah, Aria student?”
“First, collect some mana. Please explain the situation.”
Other professors tried to solve the situation by talking rationally, but Professor Keren, a former mercenary, was dumbfounded and took a stance.
“I didn’t know that such a big man could be hiding among our students.”
A truly stupendous speculation.
The killing spree that was poured out on me spreads even bigger and thicker and heads for the professors.
“Even professors? It must have been quite hard to prepare.”
Aria is now convinced that even the other professors are fake. The situation was getting increasingly serious.
‘Now without weapons is the most likely.’
If he had the great sword he was using in his hand, it would be difficult to deal with even if all the professors in the academy flocked to him.
Since it was Arya who dealt with the kingdom’s elite sorcery judges alone, that should be enough.
‘Perhaps she has been fighting based on the skills she learned in the previous episode, so it’s correct that she learned the greatsword.’
Even if it were me, I would have told you to choose a greatsword that is the most efficient and has many unique items that are versatile.

No, it could have been that I recommended the greatsword in the first playthrough.
So it’s clear that martial arts skills are generally low. A situation where we have to deal with us with only basic self-defense techniques or movement skills like Hwangryongbo.
Even so, Arya’s fighting spirit was hard to pass lightly. The tiger was too large to be her tiger without her teeth.
In addition, this side is not killing, but a situation where you have to control and control your strength.
Even if she wanted to solve it through dialogue as much as possible, she knew that it would be difficult, so she tried to subdue her even if she suffered damage.
“What, what happened?”
“Are all the professors gathered?”
“Are there fights?”
Students moving to the next lecture. Among them, several characters from the game, including Eleanor, caught my eye.
“Ouch!”
The moment she sees them, Arya clutches her head in pain.
“aaagh!”
It was an unexpected situation, but a golden opportunity. I immediately gave a signal to Keren, and Erica’s spirit followed and cast a secondary magic on Keren.
“Let’s calm down a bit!”
Arya loses her senses and collapses as Karen strikes her on the back of her neck with precision.
Is this the way I learned while serving as a mercenary?
I was grateful for the neat handling, but I couldn’t help but watch the collapsed Arya with a distraught expression.
* * *
“So stay there.”
When I spoke to the room where her aria was confined, she answered with a lively voice inside her.
“Yes, Professor!”
Aria woke up in just 10 minutes despite the neat technique of Keren, who said that she would normally pass out for 3 hours.
I know she’s no ordinary girl, but I can only admire her bizarre physical abilities every time I see her.
Her fight to subdue her has to begin again, but others are worried.
If she really had Capgras Syndrome, she had a different method.
To hear only the voice.
At the time, when I heard about Capgras Syndrome, I heard a few examples.
One of them was about a man who spoke to her mother on the phone.
To the mother right in front of me, I screamed loudly that it was a fake, that it was a freak imitating her mother.
After sending her mother to the room right next to her and calling her on the phone, he calmed down remarkably and accepted her mother on the phone as real.

Not showing your face.
That was the way to keep Arya intact.
“Wow, that’s amazing.”
After hearing all about her situation, Finden Ai sticks out her tongue and looks at her door.
“I know everything, the owner. It’s the first time I’ve heard of this disease.”
Does anyone on this continent know anything about Capgras Syndrome?
Thinking that it probably won’t happen, I caution Finden Eye.
“If Aria tries to come out, just call me. She shouldn’t let her run away, and she shouldn’t show anyone else’s face.”
“I got it. Jeop, it’s a dormitory, so I can’t even smoke cigarettes.”
I went to the 1st floor of the dormitory, leaving Findenai alone.
It was a nightspot in the women’s dormitory, but there were many professors who were quite big, and the dean was at the center.
“Huh, I heard Professor Erica explain the situation. I heard you have some kind of mental illness?”
“Capgras Syndrome. It is a mental illness in which people believe that the people around them are not real, but someone else is in disguise.”
“Do you have such a disease?”
Kareen, a good professor, asks with a puzzled expression. Even if she is a knowledgeable person in this area, she has not heard of it after all.
I nodded my head calmly, even though I felt sorry for him.
“Because it is a rare disease, it is not well known. That’s not what matters.”
Yes, it doesn’t matter what the name of Arya’s illness is.
“There is no standardized way to fix that child, so I have to find it from now on.”
Some professors stood up right after my words.
“Wait, can’t we just send you to the hospital?”
“We are professors who teach students, not doctors who treat them.”
“The safety of other students may also be at risk.”
In a way, the professors’ answers were obvious.
Because she indirectly sensed that she, whom she thought was just an outstanding student, had surprisingly strong powers.
A situation where other students could be in danger if they run out of control again.
The dean also looks at me with a subtle expression to see if his heart goes that way.
In response to those answers, Erica puts her arms around her and coldly raises her opinion.
“It has only been two days since Arya became like that. Just two days ago, she was attending lectures normally.”
“… ….”
“It sounds like there is a good chance that she has changed like that for a reason inside her academy.”
“Yeah, but we can’t just leave it alone!”
One of the professors exclaimed in bewilderment when he said that the academy also had some responsibility, but Erica was adamant.
“Professor Deius is the one who knows the name of Aria’s illness and knows how to deal with it. If there is a doctor at the hospital in town who knows about her illness, I don’t mind passing it over to them.”
“… ….”
“Otherwise, how is it different from passing a lab mouse? Other students are important, of course.”
The chilly voice, devoid of any emotion, gave more persuasive power. However, I feel that there is a deep trust in me inside.
“Arya is also an academy student. She has a countermeasure, and I think the quickest way to find a solution is to leave it to Professor Dayus.”
“No.”
The dean sighed as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
“There are so many events this year.”
While grumbling so much, the dean came to a conclusion after putting all the opinions together.
“For now, let’s watch the progress. Three days have passed, and if Ms. Arya’s condition worsens, then we have no choice but to send her to the hospital.”
“Okay.”
After that, the professors left their seats, and the only ones left were me, Erica, and Professor Karen.
“Can I follow you around? I will check to see if the hospital in town knows anything about Capgras Syndrome.”
Keren said she didn’t know she had such a disease, and she was intrigued.
“So what are you going to do?”
Erika’s words were soft, unlike her voice that sounded like a cold wind blowing just now.
I looked at her for a moment and then walked out of her.
“Arya, who was fighting us, complained of her headache.”
“I suddenly did that when I saw students passing by.”
“It is not simply because of the large number of students.”
I saw clearly the important characters in the game that were mixed in.
“Looks like I need to see some students.”
First of all, I thought I should meet Arya’s old colleagues.
Her mind got confused between the 1st and 2nd round huh 🤔
