270 – [5] Oguogu
#270
This is the same everywhere in the world, but people do not change ‘significantly’.
If change were that easy, there would be no saying that people cannot be rewritten.
The way of life I have lived so far and the experiences I have accumulated thanks to it.
These two were absolute beings for humans.
Of course, small changes were invisible and could be tolerated.
However, major changes were not a matter so light that an absolute being could tolerate them.
So, in order to change something significantly, the change had to start here.
This means that you need to brace yourself and take a very revisionist stance toward yourself.
But human life was like a Bible.
Sutras displayed in a golden pavilion that must never be altered.
Does it significantly change the ideas presented in such places?
It wasn’t easy.
Who would believe me if I told you that 1,000 birds would suddenly stop being violent?
Perhaps the neighborhood bastard thought this bastard had finally gone crazy and cleaned her neck well so that she could be treated nicely.
In this way, he gives up what he believed in and embraces heretical elements.
It was definitely not something that could be accepted right away.
This was especially true if it became closer to an ideological idea than an everyday idea.
These are things commonly called ‘~isms’.
In that sense, Ines, a southern racist, was a very political figure.
Of course, he was not synonymous with being good at politics.
If that were the case, he would have gone to a regular university instead of the academy as a prodigy.
He wouldn’t have said anything just because his mouth was pierced.
“Uh… ….”
“The reaction is a bit strange. “Did I say something wrong?”
I said it wrong.
It was so strange and different from usual.
When I saw her for the first time in a while, she looked so different.
I just put it in the washing machine and ran it once, and it felt like a small amount of personality modification had been done.
“If I said something seriously wrong, I will improve it or apologize.”
“Wait a minute, what? Improvement? Apologize? “Did you eat something wrong?”
The feel of the original remains, but it feels like something strangely important is missing.
This felt like missing the spiciness from Korean cuisine.
It was a very serious matter.
Vacation, it means that a person’s identity has evaporated during that short period of time.
I stared at Inez.
Eventually, I looked around her body.
“Well, I don’t think I was hit by mental magic.”
“What, what?! Mental magic?! “Suddenly, what kind of nonsense is that?”
“No, it’s so different from what I usually say.”
Aren’t there prefixes and suffixes that you spit out every time you talk to me?
A bastard, an inferior, an ear, a pointy ear, something like that.
“Ah.”
“I was wondering why a child who normally discriminates well doesn’t discriminate today.”
“… ….”
It seems like his eyes and tone of voice have subtly become gentler.
Regardless of the great progress, it was truly amazing.
Ines noticed my remarks and nodded her head.
It was an attitude of intentional change, not unconscious change.
“That…” … “I think I was too harsh in the first semester.”
“It was bad?”
“I felt like there was a lot of discrimination, a lot of verbal abuse, and a lot of disdain…….”

Our Ines has changed.
I never imagined that words like this would come out of the mouth of that person.
No.
It is still too early to be sure.
Isn’t it rare for someone to change and then get rolled back?
For Ines, who was steeped in discrimination, there was even more room for that.
“There is no need to do that.”
“No. “No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I can do that anymore.”
“What makes you think that?”
“You gave me a chance. “I think saying harsh words to someone like that is crossing the line.”
But the answer was very clear.
It was right to give him a chance, and saying harsh words was an act that crossed the line.
No matter how much I got used to it and found it annoying, it wasn’t wrong.
That’s why I was so proud that I changed my beliefs.
“Wow.”
“Is this enough to explain it?”
“Don’t be. “I don’t know what happened during vacation, but you’ve really grown up.”
Oh, well done.
I immediately stroked her head.
Ines froze for a moment at my touch.
Her eyes rolled back and forth, her face turned slightly red, and she took a step back.
“Hmm! Anyway, I will do as you said. “I will take a cooking class and do my best to help with that.”
“It can be difficult. “As you can see from what I’ve heard so far, it may not be a good thing.”
“It’s okay. “It’s about repaying a favor, so I guess you can do at least that much.”
Still, I didn’t know.
Shannon said she would do it too, but didn’t she show rejection after hearing her actual story?
For Ines, that was more likely.
To begin with, I am not closer than Shannon, and I think the relationship is somewhat ambiguous.
Therefore, she told Ines the partial truth, although not the whole truth.
There was not a single movement on her face.
“So, it’s about monitoring people. “If the circumstances arise, I can do other difficult things.”
“That’s roughly the case.”
“The reason it was revealed was because his parents were serious felons, right?”
“According to the government, it is so. Well, if you look at the details, it seems to be true.”
Ines was silent for a moment.
Judging by the fact that she didn’t get an answer right away, it seemed like she was leaning toward rejection.
Well, who would agree to let someone close to them spy on someone?
In particular, America was a country of freedom, and southerners loved it even more.
There was no reason to agree, and it was not a belief to agree with.
No, even someone who doesn’t like freedom that much would consider this incident to be a bit too much.
Nevertheless, the only reason I accepted it was to solve the military problem.
For me, there was a reward for resolving the military, but for her, there was no particularly good reward.
Financial compensation at best.
There is a high possibility that I will take this out of my wallet as well.
“Of course it won’t work, right? Well, if you look at it, it is an action that greatly tramples on freedom within the academy.”
“Why not?”
“Huh?”
“Freedom is not a word for serious criminals.”
Oh my god.
Is this guy saying this?
It looks like something really happened during vacation.
He says all kinds of things that convey such intelligence.
“Oh.”
“If you were a minor criminal, you might have thought about it a lot, but if you were the child of a serious criminal who was never caught, it would be a little different.”
“Yeah, right.”
All humans had the right to be free.
However, some crazy people who cause trouble to others were an exception.
This was even more true in this world where there was a biological weapon called Hunter.
Because the level of nuisance does not end with simple assault.
Ines completely agreed.
Since she was still in her course correction period anyway, I headed to her administrative office with her.
Then I told a little more about the backstory.
It was also revealed that he was not simply a serious criminal, but the child of those who tried to overthrow the country but failed.
However, Ines’ gaze was strange.
It seemed as if he was asking me if this was right.
“…… “And yet you leave it alone?”
“Because their parents haven’t been caught yet.”
“No, not the parents, but the children. If you listen to it, the parents are really bad guys. Are you just letting those bastards go to the academy? “Does this make any sense?”
I also really didn’t understand why the Academy did that.
No matter how much they say there is no guilt by association and they don’t consider the past, honestly, at this level, I would recommend expulsion.
“I’m crazy. It’s really crazy. “The Academy is also dealing with heavy rain this time.”
“That’s right.”
Ines sighed heavily.
Eventually, she faintly heard the words, ‘It’s a shame the house is on high ground.’
This is how a discriminator changed in just one semester.
As expected, Palaistra Academy was a great place.
“By the way, what exactly is the name of the new cooking class I’m taking this time?”
“Learn intermediate survival cooking through hunting.”
“Learning through hunting…… Wait, intermediate survival cooking?”
“Yes.”
Ines opened her eyes wide.
Then he stared at me.
“The country that said earlier that a serious criminal had escaped… ….”
“China.”
“But the child of that guy in that place is listening to intermediate survival skills learned through hunting?”
The son of a bad guy is taking this course.
Well, there doesn’t seem to be anything that could be problematic apart from the character.
“Why is there a problem?”
“Intermediate survival cooking learned through hunting. This lecture. “Isn’t this a lecture that Chinese people listen to a lot?”
“Hang? “Is this a lecture that Chinese people listen to a lot?”
“That’s right. On the other hand, everyone tends to hear a lot about intermediate survival cooking that is learned through gathering or fishing.”
This was my first time hearing this information.
When I looked at the course evaluation, it seemed like an ordinary cooking class, with the professor being delicious and the food friendly, wasn’t it?
“Is that real? “It’s information I’ve never heard of before.”
“I am certain because my seniors who have diverse racial knowledge have given me information.”
What are seniors with diverse racial knowledge?
I felt trustworthy, but I also felt like they were bad people.
No, that wasn’t what was important right now.
I never imagined that nationalities would be so different just because of the different ways to obtain ingredients.
I’ll have to ask Ayaka to investigate later, but if that’s true, it would be like going into the middle of enemy territory.
If I wasn’t careful, I could have risked my life cooking in the dark.
“But I still have to do it.”
But the work has already begun.
I couldn’t be bitten.
Furthermore, not all people who listen to the lecture are bad people.
It would be sufficient to carry out surveillance.
This is how the lecture correction, which had the scent of Great-China, came to an end.
And then the second semester of first year finally began.
It seemed like nothing special would happen.
However, something unexpected happened from the first day of the semester.
“Huh? Participating in the competition award ceremony?”
A piece of mail arrived at my house.
The competition I participated in during the first semester was coming to an end.
I was really fortunate.
On the other hand, it was something that made me scratch my head.
“But…… “What competition was it exactly?”
The same goes for what I did there.
Maybe it was because I was so busy that I forgot about it, or maybe it was because my brain was damaged as a 20-year-old adult, but nothing came to mind.
Was it a monster? Was it a person?
It is clear that something was captured and disposed of in a humanitarian way.
