“Ugh…”
He slowly got up with a painful moan from the headache that still remained.
Unfamiliar ceilings and unnatural stretches of the body, an unpleasant wake up feeling that stimulates the brain
“Here…”
My current state is so messed up that I can’t even describe it in words, but I can still make a slight impression on a comfortable place where the sunlight permeates quietly and softly.
“Are you finally awake?”
When I grab my head and I am clearing my mind that is not yet clear, I can hear a man’s voice with a relaxed feel in my ear.
“This is the infirmary, and I was moved here because you suddenly collapsed with a painful scream.”
Although he looked young, he was giving off a languid atmosphere to the extent that it felt as if he had lived his entire life.
“I heard you fell over for no reason?”
“ah…”
The last memory that comes to mind naturally comes to mind when someone who seems to have a good knowledge of medicine, even though you are wearing a white coat, said that to me.
It was when I saw her happy smile, winning Abram’s corrupt offer on behalf of Marika.
I can’t remember the exact details, but I think we were having a good conversation, but a sudden headache after listening to her.
As soon as an electric current, perhaps quite familiar, pierced through his mind, he screamed and rolled on the floor.
“But I’m glad that it doesn’t look like there’s a big problem now.”
At that time, I couldn’t really figure out why I was like this, or why I was in pain, but for now it was okay.
“Yeah… I think so.”
Obviously, the problem was the head, but I look around my body and check my current state.
“Isn’t there any more painful place right now?”
In response to such a question, I politely and politely nodded, and the public health teacher with a light smile mixed with relief at my reaction beckons me to go.
“Yes, no. I think I’m fine now, so let’s just go back.”
“Okay, go back soon, because the princess and Aris student must be worried.”
Then, he tilts his head at the words that arouse a little doubt.
“The princess and Aris are worried about me? Have you ever visited while I was unconscious?”
At that, the public health teacher smiled meaningfully and spoke to me in a slightly languid voice.
“Nothing else but the princess brought you to this place with Miss Aris. How worried were you that tears like dew fell like waterfalls?”
Marika and Aris brought me to this place crying?
Even though they were worried about them, it was a little hard to believe that they were so sad.
I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t seen it in person, but it’s not a situation that can be easily drawn in my head, so I felt a little incomprehensible.
However, as he is still showing a tilted expression, that smile gradually disappears, and then he shows a look of bewilderment and asks a question out of the blue.
“Isn’t he friendly with the princess…?”

Now he rolled his eyes as if he was even making an impression, and it seemed like he was looking at me in a bad way.“If you look at it, it’s just an ordinary classmate relationship, nothing more, nothing less, right?”
At my reply, he saw a face that was momentarily surprised as to what made him collapse, then he drooped his shoulders and complained to me in a shaky voice.
“I’m sorry to say this, but… Do you often hear that you don’t notice?”
Why are you saying that all of a sudden?”
“Why…?”
When he said that with a really pure question, he made a slightly absurd expression on his face and sighed deeply.
“No… if you just listen to what the princess is saying… no… it’s nothing, just forget about it.”
What the hell did Marika say when she brought me here crying…
“Looking back, the age difference isn’t that big, but I’ll give you one piece of advice, it’s better to understand how the people around you look at you.”
From the beginning to the end, what do you mean by that… His characteristic languid tone seemed to add credibility.
“Yeah… Anyway, let’s go.”
I bowed my head once more and left the infirmary, and for a while I was worried about the health teacher’s expression looking at me with sad eyes.
Be aware of how people around you see you…

Now I couldn’t understand what the hell I was talking about.◆◆◆
If there was an earthly paradise, it would be like this.
A pure white audience made of white marble
It was a sight full of ecstasy when the vast sunlight lit the room.
However…
“You’re trying to remember the past again…”
However, unlike that atmosphere, the owner of the place, Morione, darkens his complexion and lowers his tone of voice.
“Something’s not right… if it stays like this…”
He tried to say something, but he didn’t finish his sentence as soon as his teeth fluttered.
“Never get caught…”
Then, he takes out an abstract jade marble that is difficult to express in words from the air and stares intently at it as if obsessed with it.
“He shouldn’t have anything to do with the past…if that happens, he’s only destined to reveal all the truth…”
It was as if he was hiding some truth and was genuinely afraid that it would be revealed.
What she was holding in her hand was Harold’s old memories, the only cause that allowed him to stay with her now.
“If I remember everything… I’ll be done.”
In fact, the reason Morione had Harold’s memory was actually full of lies.
It was made up in the first place with plausible words, and there was no reason to give him a new life.
It is true that he has to share his vow with Morione, but it is only temporary, and if he recovers his health, he will be able to live his original life.

Nevertheless, the reason for manipulating Harold’s memory and exiling him from his past for false reasons was to keep him completely by his side and at the same time provide a kind of device to exclude his competitors.“eww….”
If he doesn’t, he has no reason to follow him.
◆◆◆
Even before class started, the atmosphere in the classroom was buzzing as if it was a blank time where a little freedom was allowed.
“Harold?! Are you okay now?!”
As soon as I return to the classroom, Aris and Marika find me and greet me with a smile.
As the health teacher said, they seemed worried about me and looked depressed until they actually saw me.
“I was a bit worried because he suddenly collapsed… I’m glad he looks healthy though.”
Marika, who said as if she had little interest in me, was an unimaginable response that she moved me with tears in her eyes.
“Yeah… I’m fine now, I’m sorry I suddenly collapsed.”
The reaction wasn’t so intense that I wondered if the health teacher’s words were true, so on the other hand, I felt a sense of emptiness because I was expecting it for nothing.
“Are you really surprised?! Why are you in pain all of a sudden? He said he was in pain as he grabbed his head.”
At least, Aris really cares about me, so she pays attention to me with all her heart.
“I don’t even know why I got a headache… But I’m fine now, so I don’t have to worry about it.”
On the other hand, Marika…
“……”
He just looked at me with an ambiguous expression on how he felt, whether he was shy or sympathetic.
“Harold…”
At first he was muttering my name and looking into my eyes.
“why…?”
Let’s answer with a sense of self-confidence in an unknown, serious atmosphere…
“Maybe before you fell… remember the suggestion I made?”
The conversation I had with her before I collapsed?
Was it because he was making such a face…
If I had to answer her question honestly… it was ‘no’.
What did she say… Sure, they had conversations, but they disappeared as if their memory had been erased.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t remember… Can you tell me again?”
With a slightly apologetic mood, I politely ask what she said earlier…
“It’s nothing, maybe that’s better.”
It is passed over to words that do not understand the meaning.
“Let everyone sit down.”
Then, as soon as it was time for Marika to turn her head, the professor entered the classroom.
With that said, all the students attend their respective seats and remain silent. In the flowing silence, the professor nodded with satisfaction and said what he would do this time.
“If it was originally, we would have classes, but today is a special event day.”
Many students, including myself, expressed their doubts at the unexpected remark, and the classroom was filled with question marks.
“The Revelation of the Pharaoh Royal Capital is an event where the various gods gather here for the students, and there is a place to listen to advice for the prospects of students attending this academy.”
To put it simply, it feels like a job experience that comes…
You can think of it as an event that promotes one’s own shrine and at the same time provides a lot of help to talented people who may come to you in the future.
“Perhaps the people you serve are also here. Usually, it is blasphemy to hear from other gods even if there is a god you worship, but this time is an exception, so feel free to ask any god you are interested in for advice.”
◆◆◆
In that way, in the square of the academy that currently exists outdoors, there are several luxurious and huge tents like a festival, and many students set out with their own distinct purpose.
“The academy is going to prepare something like this, aren’t you surprised?”
“Now that I see that there are gods in all of the tents I see now, I should say I’m a little excited… Are you nervous?”
There were these girls by my side right now, I don’t know at what point it became a set… In the academy, going with three people has become a daily routine.
“By the way, who do you serve?”
In this situation, I’m going to ask the two people next to me the questions I’m curious about.
Come to think of it, they didn’t know what kind of deity they were…
With such a question and some kind of expectation, the two answered with the same person almost at the same time.
“”Goddess Abne.””
Do they serve Abne-sama?
He was the most prestigious in the royal capital, and his followers were also common.
Probably half of the students here are Abne shrines…
“By the way, who does Harold serve?”
As if they had answered it, it was now my turn, and Marika returned my question as it was.
“I am Morione-sama, goddess of fate.”
Then, he looked at me with a curious face, a little puzzled as to whether it was unexpected.
“I heard that all those who serve Goddess Morione are mysterious people with unknown identities…”
“Even though it may look ordinary, considering the magic that Harold possesses, it may be true.”
At that time, each of them gave such evaluations and kept staring at me…
yes…?
A barracks catches my eye.
It was a place that was too small in scale than those reserved for other gods, and the scale was disastrous, as if it were a forgotten god who was not chosen by anyone.
“Harold?”
“Where are you going?”
Leaving behind the women who ask me, I begin to approach the barracks as if possessed by something.
Why does my instinct cry out to see the God within me…
“Wait a minute, I’ll go alone.”
Leaving those words alone, I began to walk, and with every step I took, mystical sensations brought back my mood, and a shiver that was foreign to my body pushed me further.
“Excuse me… Excuse me.”
The sight unfolds before the eyes as we leave the barracks and go inside
“Welcome, it’s a little weird that you’re interested in me even if you prepare a small barracks to show that you’re a rookie who doesn’t have anything.”
A monotonous but attractive dress on a white background, with blonde hair that feels like sunlight and white skin like white jade.
The goddess I met for the first time was sitting in front of me.
“I am Eleanor, the goddess of wretched sorrow, introduce me—”
A goddess who looks at me while introducing herself, but strangely, as soon as she sees my face, she has an astonished expression on her face.
Obviously, it wasn’t until today that I met the Goddess in front of me for the first time.
But why…
“Harold…?”
she muttered my name
