On the night of Saturday, March 19th, the mysterious terrorism and fire incident at the Lunatic Hall in Frontier District 4 was put to an end by the morning of the next day.
The cause of the incident was revealed to be the personal action of Professor Nadieli Harlennia, who was in charge of the Extrasensory Special Lecture as a member of the Epic Class.
In the end, he was engulfed by his never-ending progress and desire for achievement, and he committed a taboo that should not be touched. … In this way, the fact that Nadieli’s hidden identity is an abomination of demons was left to be known only by very few of the Frontiers.
If it was fortunate enough, would it be that there were hardly any casualties? Those exposed to the unknown smoke ended up losing their minds.
If it had been exposed for a longer period of time than it was, it might have caused a lot of erosion by dark magic.
Add to.
According to the results announced by the Frontier Headquarters, the estimated damage is close to the three-year operating cost of the Empire’s medium-sized horse tower. This was when considering all the values of research materials that were permanently lost due to fire, etc.
Also, it was a self-evident fact that the reputation of Frontier was damaged by this incident. This was done by a chair professor who was personally selected and invited by Frontier.
Strictly speaking, as the outline of the case was published, it could not be regarded as the responsibility of the Frontiers entirely, but it seemed that the high-ranking people did not think so much.
This is because it was the infiltration of demons, the main enemy of the Empire, not anyone else. Headquarters was deeply aware of their responsibility and wanted to further strengthen the frontier’s security rather than publicizing the case by reducing the scale.
With this as a starting point, we need to be more careful when selecting new Frontier professors, and all Frontier faculty members are scheduled to have a one-on-one interview with Elena Crymore in the near future.
The case itself was not over.
As the scale was large, the speed of the rumor spread was also fast. A self-inflicted terrorist attack by an Epic class professor in District 4. An Epic class student who was directly involved in it and became unconscious.
Above all, Elena Crymore, who appeared on the scene that day, and the bizarre act of a now unconscious student in the middle of the building… …
It flowed through word of mouth from many frontier students, and, of course, it also reached the ears of the Epic class students.

The special lecture on extrasensory was canceled midway.
It was only a week after opening.
Students will have to reapply during the correction period, but the frontier side announced that they would resume the extrasensory special lecture with a trusted professor, so most of the students were watching silently.
Monday came back like that.
“What’s going on? Sudden summons.”
“I don’t know. I have something to announce.”
The freshmen of the Epic Class first-year students gathered in the Keter Building’s first-year general lecture room around the evening hours after the day’s work was over.
“Ah, is everyone here? The announcement time has run out, so if anyone is late, you should let them know.”
Tyler Lebeguin with crooked white hair looked around the freshman to see if he still had no intention of passing it properly.
“… As some of you may already know, something pretty big happened last Saturday night in District 4.”
Tyler briefly tapped the stage with his finger.
“Terrorism, and fire, which are terrifying just to hear. I wondered what kind of big guy was doing that shit at Frontier, but the new professor Nadielli Harlennia is the culprit. I know a few people here are listening to… … I don’t care.”
Tyler continues.
“Anyway, one of your friends who was there is currently unconscious. Ezio Cranil… Am I right? So, the guy who isn’t here right now. It is said that there is no life-threatening problem due to how well he was treated, but it seems that he has not yet regained consciousness.
There were a few students who looked around at Tyler’s words. As he said, there were only 14 freshmen gathered here, missing one.
“You too, don’t shoot anywhere for a while and stay here. No matter where I get caught up again like this time, not only you but also I will get tired. … Damn, it’s been a while since I’ve been wanting to sleep, but what’s with the sudden summoning order? … ”
Tyler, who was scratching his head and muttering with a sigh, utters one last word as if he has finished talking to the freshmen.
“The announcement ends here. More than.”

Druck.
Then he hurried out the door.
The first-year students left in the spacious classroom hesitated for a moment. Shortly thereafter, a group of male students who were interested in the incident, but not very interested in the victim, headed out of the classroom.
Gabriel seemed quite calm, apparently already aware of Ezio’s condition. Then, he whispers something to Aldrie in the seat next to him. However, Aldrie didn’t even look at Gabriel, and seemed to just listen silently.
among those students.
“… … The rumors were true.”
the back seat of the classroom.
As if all the rumors about Ezio Cranil that had been sparsely heard from around him were true and not lies, Yuri, who had a blank expression on her face for a moment, muttered after hearing a notice like Tyler’s sentence.
Even if it’s a Saturday day Ezio, who was nowhere to be found on Sunday, too, was truly embroiled in the incident head-on.
Nothing was confirmed until Monday morning, so the rumors were not accepted as true.
However, when Tyler personally explained the situation in which he had gone unconscious because it was not enough to get hit by a single shot like this, Yuri carefully looked around the seat next to him in a state of confusion.
“… … Are you okay, Rubia?”
“… … ”
it doesn’t look good
When I turned around, there was Rubia with her mouth slightly open. Just looking at her appearance now, it seemed that she wouldn’t even notice if an insect got into her mouth.
It’s Rubia who started taking Ezio’s worries seriously since noon on Sunday.
Even Gabriel, who was close with Ezio, replied that he did not know where he had gone, so Rubia said that something really bad must have happened to Ezio at that point, and rolled her feet next to Yuri.
… … Yuri didn’t dare predict what Rubia’s current feelings would be.
I thought it might be too much fuss, so I tried to convince Rubia that it wouldn’t be a big deal, but when it happened, I couldn’t think of anything to say or what to say.
Above all, Yuri’s heart was not as calm as expected.
‘… What the hell is this?’
I do not know. Worry, worry? Rather than that, I wish I could come back after getting hurt in one place, maybe it was because I thought the same thing as a joke. Is that why I feel guilty for no reason? In a more wrinkled position, Yuri put her fingers together and immersed herself in deep thought.
Stella, who was sitting next to Rubia, also sat still and blinked.
“… … Mr. Ezio… ? ah-?”
And then.
‘A-‘ or ‘Huh-?’ It was making a strange sound that didn’t know the meaning, and tilted his head slightly to the side.
At first it didn’t seem normal.
… … like that.
The back seat of the trio, each with a serious face.
“… … ”
Sasha Elne, who should have been babbling loudly at the back of the lecture hall, was sitting quietly today in a calm state.
While stroking the azure low twintail with his hands, he glances to the side and turns his gaze.
Mew, who doesn’t even pay attention to Sasha’s existence anymore, or doesn’t even bother to sit next to him, kept her mouth shut.
Sasha still remembered that moment clearly. The moment he grabbed Mew’s arm because he was about to head to a place that was even dangerous to look at, those cold eyes and a cold voice like winter frost.
If I had bothered Mew’s nerves even a little bit more, I might have really turned Sasha herself into Sasha… …

“-Hey!”
Meanwhile, Mew pulled up a chair and stood up, and Sasha, who was sitting next to him, was startled and almost fell backwards.
I manage to keep my balance and focus, then turn my back and carefully talk to Mew, who is about to leave the classroom.
“That, that. Hey! Sasha, I’m sorry then… … ”
Without hearing Sasha’s apology.
No, I wondered if I could hear it.
Mew, who had only one thought in her head since Saturday night, trudged down the stairs of the classroom, and immediately opened the door.

The next day, Tuesday.
At 11 a.m., two students were absent from the swordsmanship class.
It was Mew and Ezio Cranil.
However, in the case of Ezio Cranil, attendance was allowed even during absence as a special exception, but this was not the case with Mu. He was absent without a word, perhaps because he did not feel the need to submit another reason.
Not only for the swordsmanship lecture, but for all the lectures that took place that day, Mu did not even see his face for a moment.
Before leaving, Elena encouraged Mew to attend class, but, of course, Mew didn’t listen. I couldn’t hear exactly. In the first place, there was no way I could concentrate properly in class… …
So, since it was clear that taking classes would be of no use, it was better for him to spend the whole day in Ezio’s hospital room, praying for him to wake up, so he decided.
“… I’m here, Ezio.”
Tuesday evening.
Ezio Cranil’s private ward, located around the site of District 2’s Epic Class dormitory.
After opening the door to the VIP room of the medical center sponsored by the imperial family foundation, Mew slowly closed the door by pushing the handle with a very careful hand, and looked forward.
Ezio was there, lying on a white bed covered with a thin blanket.
A slight breeze blew in through the gap in the window that was slightly opened for ventilation. The wind gently brushed Ezio’s bangs with his eyes closed and motionless.
Inside the hospital room, it was quiet and quiet. On the table was a flowerpot that Mew had brought. A faint scent of flowers wafted through the spacious room.
Mew, who staggered and took a seat in the chair in front of the bed where Ezio was lying, looked down at Ezio’s face, who had not regained consciousness for the third day.
It looked as if he was just sleeping peacefully. However, they are only sleeping for a long, long time.
As Elena said, her body recovered, but it seemed that she was still a long way from coming to her senses.
Thinking that maybe I couldn’t wake up like this, tears seemed to come up again as usual.
Why is this only happening to Ezio?
… So was that day.
Ezio was caught up in a mysterious incident and faced a near-death crisis.
But I’m still alive… … He became the person he is now, and entered the same class as him.
Mew didn’t know anything about what had happened in between, but he was going to find out from now on.
Just about that moment, this happened again. Ezio showed himself torn twice in front of Mew’s eyes. It was terrible.
Even if he fell asleep while nursing Ezio, the shocking sights of that time kept appearing in his dreams and waking him up, casting a slightly dark shadow around Mew’s eyes.
Although most of the severe wounds have been healed, he gently grabs Ezio’s hand, where there are still small scars that he has not been able to erase, and gently strokes it as if reminiscing about something.
Ezio’s first hand holding it wasn’t this big. They would have been just the right size if they interlocked, but now the back of his little hand might be covered with Ezio’s fingers.
Ezio has changed a lot. I thought so.
‘… … i won music.’
It wasn’t. didn’t change
At that time, the gentle smile that he showed towards Mew was unmistakably clear and unmistakably the lovely smile of a senior… …
When I think of my seniors at that time, innumerable precious memories rise to the top and then sink to the bottom again. Perhaps because he was stroking Ezio’s unconscious hand, the torrent of emotions grew stronger.
‘… You can’t do this.’
But, I couldn’t stop crying here again. I already cried a lot. When Ezio woke up again, Mew himself had promised to greet him with a smile.
In Mew’s head, who had lowered her head for a moment as if being stabbed by a thorn, Elena’s voice she heard at dawn on Sunday suddenly came to mind.
— Probably, it won’t be the same for a while.
“… … ”
… what did that mean
It won’t be like it used to be. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but you’d have forgotten all those memories.
If that were to refer to all the bonds and memories that had been built up between Ezio and Mew himself, then Mew seemed to feel an indescribable wretched feeling.
No, nothing is certain yet. He said he would know the details when he woke up. So, for now, I’m just concentrating on Ezio’s full recovery.
Mew, who had been rubbing the tears that had been stagnant with her fingers, had just stood up from her chair to check the condition of the flowerpot.
——Drop.
The door to the closed hospital room opened.
“I didn’t know you were going to be in the VIP room. It’s like an epic class, so it’s not like that… … ?”
Mew looked around.
Yuri, who appeared with a bouquet of flowers in her arms, met her eyes.
However, the eyes of Mew, who stayed on Yuri for a while, turned to someone next to Yuri.
Soon they crossed their eyes in the middle of the hospital room.
“… … uh, um. Guys?”
While Mew and Rubia looked at each other without saying a word, the glass between them blinked.
