A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy

11 – Civilization (1)

What is the biggest difference between wild and civilization? That’s a conversation

In the wild, there is almost no communication, so the law of the jungle is applied as it is, but in civilization, it is not.

Instead, when a difficult problem arises, it can be resolved through dialogue with force. Force is always the final option.

However, there are occasional instances in which a bad image is overlaid by inducing violence after deliberately being rude by using this in reverse.

As someone said, civilized people are more rude than savages. Civilized people do not split their heads even if they are rude.

“Who is that guy? Pervert?”

“Was there a person like that at the academy? What are you doing without kicking them out?”

“Wait a minute. That girl seems to be the top student this time? What is it?”

“Look at the squirrel. It’s so cute.”

Look. As soon as I entered the academy, all kinds of rude words came into my ears one after another.

Far from being moved by contact with civilization, there was only an urge to split the head.

Of course, I can’t help it because I’m not talking about my appearance. I only wore one mat, but it would be strange to anyone to see it.

At least even a savage would wear clothes properly. Even though the exposure is strong, I don’t wear it like I do.

“······Quickly buy some clothes. Put on a robe roughly.”

“Yeah. I guess I should.”

In the end, Luna and Ellie, unable to overcome their shame, dressed me.

Speaking of clothes, only the cheapest robe was covered. Thanks to that, the gaze of the surroundings was reduced very slightly.

Still, her hair and beard were so thick that they covered her face, so it must draw attention. Dosa doesn’t grow like this.

‘Anyway, this is a real academy.’

I followed behind and looked around the academy. United Academy, where promising players from all over the world gather.

The main stage of Soul World and a place that plays an important role until the end. It is a place with dark traces of civilization that I hoped for.

The infrastructure is as good as the world’s best educational institution. From a basic general store to a space where non-combat workers can practice.

I can’t believe this is a world inside a game. Who the hell would think this is a game?

As I was following the party, I found something quite disturbing and had no choice but to stop.

“··· ···”

“Huh? Shibar, I’m not following you…”

Ellie stopped asking questions and turned her head to follow my gaze. Luna, who was going ahead, also looked behind her.

Then she turned her gaze in the direction my gaze was heading. There is a tall ‘bell tower’ built there.

“This is Gaia’s church. Did it attract attention because it was built particularly high?”

Said Ellie, tilting her head. As she said before, God exists in this world.

-Gaia, the goddess of life.

-Chaos, the god of chaos.

-Gulag, the God of Destruction.

There are three gods like this, and they are siblings. A real brother and sister who bite and harass each other.

Here, the god of chaos is neither male nor female. Like the name chaos, gender is not fixed.

“Come to think of it, Ratatosque also uses thunderbolts. Thunderbolts are the ability of Gulag, the God of Destruction, right?”

“It’s usually the case. It’s also the god most savages believe in.”

“Luna. Not a barbarian, but a Tartar. This is an academy.”

“Sorry. I made a mistake.”

The three gods have different abilities, just like their names.

Gaia is mainly a healing ability, and Gulag is a variety of offensive abilities including thunderbolt.

Chaos is the most ambiguous and complicated here. Because it is very fickle.

Sometimes it gives you healing abilities, sometimes it gives you offensive abilities, etc. In particular, there are too many deliberately f*cked up situations.

Basically, there is a strong tendency to pursue ‘fun’, so users tend to call it ‘Lotto God’.

However, if the conditions are met, it can show the greatest growth. It’s hard to figure out even the deceased, so it’s just a problem.

‘I want to blow a bunch of curse words coolly.’

Of course, it’s all the same to me. Whether it’s life, chaos, or destruction, the b*tches who dropped me here.

Other than that, it is impossible to explain. The demon that the devil believes in didn’t call me.

Living in the forest, his faith is so low that he is on the verge of taking a minus score.

‘Where are the stones?’

As a greeting, we should set the bell of the bell tower with stones. I looked around on the floor.

Although the distance is quite far, I should be able to hit it easily with my throwing ability.

“Let’s go. Church later.”

“Okay, Sivar?”

Unfortunately, however, it had to be postponed. I clicked my tongue and followed them.

Two female students and one natural person. Lastly, thanks to the combination of a giant squirrel, it drew attention.

It was no different even after entering the building presumed to be an administrative agency.

What’s with one? Because I made a face like that.

“I’m here to report, Professor.”

“······Looks like you have a lot to report from afar.”

This world has a weekend concept, and United Academy is the same.

In other words, there is a professor on duty on weekends. This was also reflected in Soul World.

The male professor, who is sitting at his desk and doing his duty, was making various faces looking at the group.

I went to the forest and brought back a wild man, of course. A squirrel the size of a large dog is a bonus.

“First of all, let’s ask about that person. I haven’t seen a person like that in my career. Who the hell is he?”

A professor with short sports hair and a strong beard pointed at me and asked.

Professor Marlboro Redcar who is notorious among newbies as a ‘tutorial boss’.

Although the name that reminds you of cigarettes is funny, it is a boss that is like a nightmare for newbies.

No matter what you do, you won’t die. Even if you hit it with excitement, most of the cases are cut with one shot.

Even if you don’t get hit by one and lose all your stamina, it’s meaningless.

Excellent! With just one word, the game is over.

The developer set it so that it could not be broken at all, but it was in preparation for defeating it at least once in a while.

‘I know they give bonus stats when defeated.’

This only applies to the main character, Luna, not me.

Did Luna pass? I’m a little curious about this

“I don’t know if you believe it, but I’m a survivor of the forest of chaos. What happened…”

Luna explained in detail what had happened.

From Ellie almost being killed by Manky to me breaking Manky’s pot.

However, the battle was not mentioned, perhaps to hide that Porori was a spiritual creature.

Instead, she explained only that she saved the wounded and dying with a potion.

“You know wild animals are unsanitary and full of germs, right?”

“I plan to give him rabies injection and dewormer.”

“Then it’s fine. Then the problem is that Shibarr…”

Marlboro stroked his chin and made a puzzled expression. Then the eyes focused on me.

I was just sitting in a chair. Actively appealed that it was not harmful.

“Sivar is nice no matter what he does. He listens to us.”

I almost laughed at the defense that was not Ellie’s defense. Do you know who the dog is?

But Marlborough stared at me and she brought out a negative comment.

“Well. From the outside, it looks like a survivor, but I don’t think so.”

“Why?”

At Marlboro’s assurance, Luna asked. Her doubt was clearly evident on her face.

In the end, the words Marlboro brought out gave everyone a bit of a shock.

“The academy isn’t very irresponsible. Every five years, they go into the forest to craft a special compass. In the process, they find traces of survivors. But even five years ago, there were no traces of that person. There was none at all. There have been no reports of missing persons in the meantime.”

“Then…”

“I came in through a completely different entrance than the academy, or I fell out of nowhere. It’s either one of the two. First of all, I don’t think I’m an academy person.”

I didn’t even know there was such a setting. Focusing only on survival, I almost forgot about the small things.

Still, it must have been quite shocking to her party, especially to Luna, her sky blue eyes widened.

What about Ellie? It’s only about the extent, but only Luna has that reaction.

Just by looking at his expression, it seems that he is grasping something. I can’t speak, so I just have to keep my mouth shut.

“Looking at his black hair and beard, he is presumed to be from the East, but his fair skin makes him look like a Westerner… Anyway, since I don’t know his name, it seems difficult to identify him.”

“Then what should I do? I don’t think you’re going to kick me out again…”

“Haa… A savage who can’t speak and can’t read, no, he’s a wild person… This is an unprecedented situation in the academy…”

Professor Marlborough washed his face dry as if it was a problem that could not be easily decided. I’m sure it’s difficult for me to deal with.

You don’t know what kind of accident the academy will cause if you send them in like this, and sending them back is ambiguous.

A savage who can speak the language would be much more comfortable. At least they are people, not animals.

I want to appeal to him because he’s a harmless person, but I don’t think it’s meaningless.

You should believe the proverb that if you stay still, you will go even halfway.

“I think I should tell other professors and even the president, not me, about this. It’s not a problem that can be solved in a short period of time.”

“Then what should I do with Sivar until then?”

“First of all, I need to get bath water, so I order a haircut first. Wash it after that. Like I said before, take that pig to the infirmary. If you do something wrong, you’ll get rabies.”

“Kaang?”

Porori, who was sitting next to me, seemed to be offended by the word pig. The expression with one eye raised suggests that it is a quarrel.

Professor Marlborough widened his eyes in embarrassment.

“What, what. Did you understand me?”

“That’s just because it’s a pig! Anyway, I’ll do as you say.”

“Uh… Yes. Come back when you finish getting your haircut. I’ll do the washing for you.”

“Thank you.”

I can wash myself. And I’m not that dirty.

There is no soap, but I washed my body in the valley water every day. Otherwise, it would get really dirty and there would be no answer.

Of course, there is no way to express that to them. I think I should just wash it myself when I wash it.

“I’ll take Sivar with me. Ellie, you take Ratatosque to the infirmary.”

“Okay.”

“Ah. And if you can get another anthelmintic, get one. Sivar will have to eat too.”

I don’t think there will be parasites in my body either. I ate too many things raw.

Still, there is a possibility that it does not have a ‘digestion’ characteristic. If you had parasites, you wouldn’t be able to fully digest what you ate.

“Sivar. You follow me, okay?”

“··· ···”

Just before she left, Luna pointed her finger at herself and said emphaticly.

She seems to be worried that she will follow Ellie. Just in time, Ellie walked into her infirmary with Ratatosk.

Looking at them, Luna emphasized again in a slightly urgent tone.

“No. Look at me. Shivar. Not Ellie.”

“··· ···”

“You have to follow me, okay? Do you understand?”

“I did that to my son too.”

Marlboro, who was watching in real time, giggled and threw a joke. It’s a bonus that Luna looks at him with a sharp gaze.

She nodded her head knowingly, not wanting to joke around.

Luna stepped out of the administration building with a look of relief on her face.

“Because I have to go to a barber shop, not a beauty salon… Here it is.”

For reference, United Academy has a hair salon and a barber shop.

Both can be cut simply, but there is a difference, and that is whether or not to manage the beard.

Beauty salons allow complex hairstyles, while beard management is difficult, and barbershops do the opposite.

Even if the main character’s modeling was decided, the style could be changed, and it was possible if the npc also had good impressions.

‘I don’t want to shave my beard…’

I should just cut it cool. It’s a pity that there are people watching, but it’s better to be clean.

I was able to arrive at the barber shop shortly thereafter. Barbershops were very similar to western barbershops.

I wonder if it has a retro style and a British color. In fact, it may be the right knowledge.

“Welcome… Yo. How can I help you?”

As soon as the barbershop employee saw me, he was taken aback. But she immediately regains her composure and puts on a sales smile.

Because it is an academy, it is a place where people of various races come for shaving and maintenance. Still, the wild will be the first.

Luna ordered while looking at the male waiter whose hair was neatly brushed off the side of her.

“Take it neatly as you can see. Shave all the beards and trim the hair moderately.”

“Okay. Have a seat.”

“Sivar. You can sit over there.”

After the waitress, Luna pointed to her chair and obeyed. The employee was professional and did not ask any questions.

Sitting on a chair that is softer than before, I feel strange. This is what it feels like to be fluffy.

“Sivar, just in case, you have to stay still even if scissors and a razor are pointed at your face, okay?”

“··· ···”

“No. If you just buy it, I’ll do it.

As Luna said, she took my hand. Because she is also her prosecutor, she has calluses everywhere.

Still, it is the hand of the first person to hold it. It’s a woman’s hand, not a man’s.

Emotions I had forgotten until now were about to come out, but an employee intervened.

“Excuse me, but what about the robe? Are you going to wear it as it is?”

“Ah. Yes. I have some circumstances. I’m going to throw it away anyway, so please leave it like this.”

“Okay. First, I’ll cut my hair and shave it.”

It’s time for her to say goodbye to her hair and beard that she’s grown over the years.

Then, when the barber held the scissors and held them to my hair, I involuntarily shrank.

After living in the forest for a while, instinct took precedence over reason. It seems Luna wasn’t worried for nothing.

This is the moment when I realized that ‘instinct’ is scarier than I thought.

“Ah! Ah! Shivar! Power out! Power!

While shrinking, I gave strength to Luna’s gripped hand. Her grip was light on mine, but it didn’t seem to be on her.

Hearing her cry, I hurriedly removed her strength. Luna touched her throbbing hand every once in a while, then grabbed hers mine again.

“Don’t worry. He won’t hurt you. OK?”

It feels strange because I feel like I have become a real puppy. As she said, you should be at ease as much as possible.

“······It’s okay, right?”

The waitress next to me asked in a slightly anxious voice.

When I turned my head and looked at him, he seemed to be paying attention.

“It’s okay. So please do it.”

“Okay.”

Chick! Chick!

An employee sprayed water on his hair, which he randomly grew with a sprayer. He almost brushed his hair violently, but he managed to contain it.

Then the waitress straightened his hair with a comb and said in a slightly surprised voice.

“Hmm? Customer. Have you ever had this guest’s hair catch fire?”

“Yes?”

“The top is really soft, but the bottom is crunchy. This rarely happens unless you get burned.”

You are sharp. It wasn’t fire, but it was struck by lightning and burned to brown.

When Luna heard that, she held back her words for a moment, then she laughed awkwardly.

The employee didn’t ask any more about the smile that had many meanings.

Snip-

Hi. My long hair

The clerk cut off the back of my hair with scissors. I feel a strong sense of emptiness from the nape of my neck.

Square- Square- Square-

I started with the back of my hair, trimmed it overall, and finally tidied up the bangs that hung down like a curtain.

Thanks to this, my eyes, which had been covered until now, were revealed. There was no mirror and no lake, so I couldn’t check my face.

Luna muttered softly as she looked at me in her mirror.

“······Your eyes are red?”

It’s still difficult to properly judge his appearance because of his beard. But I could see it with my own two eyes.

A deep red color that is dangerous just by looking at it. It’s the same color as the red magic I use.

I know that there are very few people with red eyes in Soul World. As far as I know, you need to get a special ‘ability’.

‘Could it be red magic?’

I can’t remember right now. I emphasized it repeatedly, but I forgot most of the small things even though I didn’t know the big story.

Like Ellie’s example, it’s to the extent that I remember it only when the situation hits me at the time. That’s not enough.

Square- Square- Square-

After tidying up my bangs, I also tidied up my shaggy beard. First cut roughly with scissors.

Wheein-

I pushed it with a barricade. You may ask what kind of barricade is in the fantasy world.

From noble mtl dot com

Magic, to be exact, is the power of magic engineering. In the first place, it is a worldview where even ‘guns’ exist.

However, a gun is similar to a bow, but it is not a panacea. Superhumans who deflect bullets are everywhere.

“I’m going to lie on my back now.”

For the final shave, the waitress reclined the chair. I held Luna’s hand and blinked her eyes.

Thanks to lying on my back, I made eye contact with Luna. Thoughts are nestled in her eyes that shine blue.

I think I was lost in thought when I saw the color of my eyes. I think it’s better to leave it to think for a while.

Swap- Shuk- Shuk-

Lub the chin and clean it with a razor. I don’t know why, but it feels really refreshing.

‘But how do I settle the house after washing?’

Suddenly, I felt that kind of worry.

******

While Sivar closed her eyes and enjoyed her shave, Luna was lost in her thoughts. She just saw her red eyes.

It is safe to say that very few people have red eyes. Even the Tatar people, who are despised as barbarians, only have red hair.

‘The book says that only monsters that go berserk have it.’

There are various monsters in the world, and among them there are monsters with the ‘Wide’ property.

Unlike normal monsters, monsters that run wild if cornered. When the wide characteristic is displayed, it becomes several times stronger.

So there is no choice but to deal with it quickly or wait until it falls into its own pool before the wide width attribute is activated.

‘Could it be to Shivar?’

I hadn’t even heard of the berserk trait being displayed on non-monsters.

Of course, your eyes may be naturally red. However, as he grew up in the ‘wild’, it was not easy to judge.

‘If you look at his hunting skills, he won’t go berserk because he’s pretty good…’

I am afraid. If Sivar really enters a berserk state, what will happen then?

Will you go crazy like a monster, or will you hold on to the tip of your reason?

“It’s over, sir.”

The haircut was all done while I was lost in thought. Luna listened to the waitress and raised her head.

Before she even realized that they were holding each other’s hands from start to finish, she couldn’t help but be dazed by the look on Sivar’s face.

“How are you, sir?”

“··· ···”

Shivar, much cleaner than before, put his hand on his chin. There was a lot of freshness on his face.

Meanwhile, Luna took a slow look at his clean look.

The first thing I thought of was this.

‘Well, are you handsome?’

That he was embarrassingly handsome.

At the United Academy, handsome men and women are common enough to stumble upon her feet.

However, Sivar is unique among them. Not even his roughly cropped hair could cover his appearance.

The most important thing is the bridge of the nose and the sharp jawline. Finally, the big eyes gave off a pure atmosphere.

A beauty that lacks nothing. Living in the wild with that beauty didn’t match.

“f*ck.”

Okay or not, Shivar looked at himself in the mirror.

It’s a bit unfortunate that he shaved off his beard, but the feeling of freshness is beyond words.

I also got a handsome appearance. He hadn’t had a chance to look in the mirror until now, so he didn’t expect his face to be like this.

There are many scars on his body, but he protected his face somehow, so he boasted clean skin without a single scar.

If you get hit in the face even once, it will go to the goal, but you have to block it. It’s not because I care about appearance, but for practical reasons.

“··· ···”

But why doesn’t he let go of his hand until the end? Sivar looked at Luna with her dazed expression.

Maybe she belatedly realized too! Hot! She came to her senses as she did. She looks really in a hurry as she frantically removes her hand.

“Hmm. Hmm. How much does it cost?”

A bunch of hers was her smoldering with her flushed face.
