Me, Makia, and Winds.

How did this happen?
We were silent across the same table. There was no conversation between them at all.
I was definitely trying to clear up some misunderstandings by talking to Makia, but the store manager suddenly appeared and even had Wins sit at the table.
Thanks to this, the Cold War, not the Cold War, is continuing.
The biggest problem is that I have nothing to say.
Sometimes Makia, who couldn’t stand her hunger, sipped her coffee without notice, and she just put her glass down sullenly after receiving a glare from Wins.
“Kuhm.”
In the long silence, I finally opened my mouth.
“By the way, what company are you two from?”
If you listen to what they say, it sounds like they know each other, and are quite close.
“…..Uh, um.”
Makia only looked at Wins to see if she could say it, and of course Wins ignored my words, so she didn’t reply in the end.
It’s cramped.
Because I was bored, I started speculating on my own.
“Motivation?”
“…..”
“Senior and Junior?”
“…..”
“A friend?”
“…..”
“Um… It’s difficult… “
I squeezed my chin and contemplated, and I came up with an idea with difficulty.
“Neither this nor that… Are you also a lover…”
“Sir!”
Winds slammed the poor table and opened her axe eye. Glowing blue eyes turned to me.
“What are you trying to do?”
“What is it?”
“Why do you keep pretending to be close? Do you know where you stand in the academy right now?”
“Where are you?”
“That’s it… “
It’s obvious.
It’s been a long time since I memorized that guy’s repertoire, whether he’s a s*x offender, trash, or rapist.
Thanks to that, I quickly cut off my words and went back in. My voice was gruff. But Winds shouted through my voice.
“It’s not like that—”
“Actually, you, just, breathing here, in this cafe is such a f*cking nuisance, damn it!”

I feel dizzy.

Medium level amenities are incomparably more advanced than the original world.
In particular, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the hygienic part is really the difference between heaven and earth, but the merit of being able to comfortably wash your body once a day is to the point where I don’t miss the original dimension anymore.
It was difficult to wash once a week after going on a regular trip. However, you can’t just move along the stream or river. Usually, such places are open, so they are easily exposed to the enemy’s sight…
Shoot it.
The water that wets the top of the head first falls to the floor.
Soaking my head in the steaming hot water, I recalled the events of the day.
“…….”
Senior Wins said that existence itself is disgusting.
Right after that, her head went blank and she left the cafe without saying anything.
Maybe she could have responded with a word or two more on the spot, but it felt like a no-brainer. To be honest, she held on to people who hated me and forcibly stuck to the cafe, but if she tried to talk more than that, she would have been kicked out after receiving more severe criticism.
And it is true that her thoughts were brief.
One day, my face would be widely sold at the academy, and at that time, if it became known that it was a cafe I frequented, it would certainly deal a fatal blow to sales as well as popularity.
If that happens, wouldn’t the manager of the cafe get f*cked twice by Eros? It really would be embarrassing.
“That’s right. You were right… “
Thanks to Winds, I know exactly what I’m in right now.
Is it still too early?
It may be that she acted too casually just with the mindset to change her perception of Eros origin.
The Eros Incident.
I only heard about a simple incident from Orien, and only the people involved knew how much tears and resentment the victims had during the actual incident.
Still, I thought it would work out somehow if we had the courage and confronted each other sincerely. I thought I was innocent and that all I had to do was show a good side of myself in the future.
But it wasn’t.
That’s all.
“Whew.”
After taking a shower, I turned off the faucet.
Think again.
How can I be recognized and melted into the academy, and how can I be there for the sake of innocent juniors who may come next?
Perhaps the quickest way is to offer the heads of former seniors who fled outside the dimension after committing a crime to the victims.
“Oh, this is nice.”
It’s a bit of a cruel imagination, but since they were the ones who abandoned the morality in the first place, it wouldn’t be particularly unfair.
The sun went down quickly as I giggled while talking to myself.
I suddenly looked at the scenery outside the window.
As I looked down at the academy, which was turning into a wonderful night view as the streetlights came on one by one, I tasted a delicious banana milk.
“Big.”
I was amazed after taking a bite.
How did you come up with the idea of adding fruit flavor to milk?
There were so many cultures in the middle dimension that I needed to learn about that were both novel and effectively fulfilled human desires.
He licked his lips in satisfaction and hummed a random song.
“Hmm, hmm.”
Let’s not think about it.
“hehehehe, hmm… “
No idea. Especially what happened today.
“Hmm…”
But the more I hummed leisurely, the more impatient I felt somewhere in my heart.
My heart started beating fast, and the corners of my mouth started to twitch. The more I realized myself, the worse the symptoms became. I tried to distract myself by shaking my legs, but in vain.
A sob rose from within.
It was kind of unstoppable. He pressed his temples tightly and tried to control his breathing, but he showed no signs of calming down.
Symptoms are getting worse.
“…..”
This feeling is just a passing feeling. If you endure now, you can make it into a bitter memory later. So let’s not be upset. Let’s not be buried in the feeling of being hated by someone.
I can control my emotions. Can control…
“… About, about.”
My trembling hand unconsciously groped the table.
However, unable to find what he was looking for, his hands froze.
There is no medicine.
“…Ah, I must have left it in the original world.”
A friend gave me a nerve-soothing drug that I was mentally unstable after being betrayed by my trusted colleagues.
Come to think of it, I couldn’t fall asleep without eating it every night. In particular, on the night when the final battle was near, Simma came to visit every day…
“…Ah, that sucks.”
Unlike the plain self-talk, the images quickly became dizzy. My breathing quickened, and my vision narrowed.
As I was summoned to the middle dimension, the clear mind I had regained was ruined thanks to the momentary loss of memory due to the reaction that transcended the dimension.

Shimma.
The mental illness that had destroyed countless masters flared up again.
I quickly realized why.
Like a puzzle being put together in reverse, memories from the past that I didn’t want to recall were coming back one after another.

“Hey, Mr Winds… “
Winds was staring blankly into space with his arms crossed.
“…Why.”
A hollow voice flowed from the girl’s mouth. I feel no energy whatsoever.
Makia said as if she was worried about her, but without showing it, with her eyes fixed on her book.
“Are you okay?”
“…Whoa.”
Winz sighed in succession and then touched her temple. Grumpy words flowed from her mouth that came out of her pout.
“…That bastard, you ruined everyone’s mood. If you leave with that expression on your face, it’s like I’m guilty… “
Saying that, Wins took out a cigarette from her arms. And watching Winds smoke a chain-cigarette, Makia tried to say something but closed her mouth.
It was also because she didn’t have the talent to express her thoughts right away, but it was clear that Wins wouldn’t listen no matter what she said.
The ghosts of the past had already swallowed Winds. She would be fine soon if left alone, but she felt resentful of herself for not being able to treat her friend like this.
So all Makia could do was slam her face into her book after all.
“…..”
But is this really true?
She was still in pain because she had gone through something painful, and that person too…
“……Huh?”
Makia opened her mouth in a moment of bewilderment.
That person, that hero from Eros, that junior who entered school yesterday. A strangely brazen and optimistic man.
… That person.
Makia couldn’t remember the name at all.
It doesn’t make sense that I haven’t heard his name even once since so many things happened right after he entered school. Nevertheless, Makia’s head was as white as an empty sheet of paper.
“Is this possible… ?”

“Director of Technical Management, I received a call… !”
“…Ah, yes, yes. You’re right. It’s just been updated! Certainly it has just been completed, that champion from Eros… yes yes… you’re right!”
“It’s only one object, but it’s so huge, we couldn’t imagine it would take more than a day to download everything, even though we belatedly noticed and stuck to them all… Oops, yes… Yes?!”
“…Okay! Thank you for your hard work, Chairman… !”
