Academy Munchkin Enslaved

59 – His World (1)

“Goodbye. A beggar world.”

That moment. Even though the accident acceleration had already stopped, everything around it began to flow slowly as if time had expanded.

The princess is looking at me with a desperate expression.

Beside him, the archbishop’s questionable expression, who also caught a glimpse of my muttering.

Aristocrats staring blankly at me, unable to keep their mouth shut, and the few familiar faces I see between them.

Looking back, it was a short time. Because it was only a little over a year.

Nevertheless, there were too many things to recall. Compared to the meaningless times of the past that were spent helplessly, every day was full.

In particular, using magic directly was quite interesting. The pleasure that comes from raising the hierarchy was nothing compared to the pleasure of just matching the calculation values.

The dirty memories and the good memories are useless to the point that I wonder if they were all dreams now that this moment has come.

It was that short, and it was that long.

The huge light that decorates the last moments here seemed to have the effect of forcibly pulling out memories.

-No… !

But even that is just a fleeting moment.

I hear it somewhere. With the last cry, I disappeared from the world.

***

“Big… It’s the head.”

It was like waking up from a deep sleep.

My head was pounding as if I had woken up after being drunk, and even if I tried to stand up, it was difficult to control my body.

Thump!

“Ouch… “

In the end, I dropped my body somewhere with the sight that has not fully returned yet.

I guess by feel, it seemed to have fallen from the bed to the floor.

I lay down in that position for a while and waited for my senses to return.

“My room… That’s it.”

It was a success.

Just before I was summoned to that world, it was my room in my memories that was getting more and more blurry.

I stumbled up and looked around.

Nothing has changed from before being summoned. It was my room, exactly the same as back then.

I found my cell phone first.

As a habit before going to bed, the cell phone was placed next to my pillow, and I pressed the power button, but it did not turn on.

I wondered if the battery had run out, so I hurriedly connected the charger, and only then did an empty battery figure appear on the screen with a ringing sound.

“Climb quickly… “

The time to wait for 1% of the cell phone to turn on was too long.

It was to the point of wondering how I could have lived for the past year without this.

“… Done.”

And the cell phone finally turned on. I checked the date first.

“20XX years… June… “

Time has passed. About a month or so.

I guess going there wasn’t a dream. It seemed like a time difference between a month here and about a year there.

Tee-Ring-

And when Wi-Fi was connected, the alarms that had been delayed began to come up quickly.

Along with that, the piled up missed calls also caught my eye only then.

“Mostly with friends… It’s a company.”

Most of the contacts came from the company I was originally supposed to join and from friends.

I didn’t have good contact with my parents at first, and it was before I said that I had joined the company yet, so I didn’t have much contact with them.

At first, I just wanted to tell you the news after my first commute, but looking back now, it turned out to be a good thing.

If you said you were going to work and didn’t contact me, you would have reported me missing.

“Getting a job… I will have to do it again.”

Of course, there was a notice of dismissal from the large company I joined.

It’s a bit funny to be fired without even going to work, but considering their position, it was inevitable because the new employee took a nap without even going to work for the first time.

No, usually, but wouldn’t you be worried then?

Maybe he thought he had run away to another company because it happened before the labor contract was written.

I don’t know. f*ck. Well, you should have been to the company to know.

“Haa… I don’t know.”

I didn’t want to think about anything right now.

With my head empty, I left my cell phone that was charging and threw myself on the bed.

“It will work somehow.”

First of all, what is certain is that the events of the past were not dreams and were real events.

And I safely returned home from that world, and about a month had passed.

It was like blowing a month of time, but it was fortunate.

Because this would have been better than living the rest of my life in that beggarly neighborhood.

“… Hmm?”

As I was tossing and turning, there was something that caught my ear.

It was an earring from Lorraine. Aids in accident acceleration.

I took off my earrings and stared at them.

I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but I felt the same energy I felt in the previous world.

The unique scent of mana that comes from artifacts.

“No way… “

I calculated the simplest 0-level fire in my head just in case.

“… It doesn’t work either.”

But, of course, nothing happened.

Of course, since mana does not exist in this world, there will be no use of magic.

But seeing that these earrings and the Pearl of Yeohwa were also passed over, I was just wondering, but it turned out to be true.

I wonder if the reason why you can feel magical power in the artifact is because of your mood.

“Well, what do you have to worry about? No accident acceleration. I can’t even feel mana.”

I took off the earrings and pearls of Yeohwa and threw them on the desk at random.

It was an item that I didn’t need anymore anyway, but it’s a bit hard to throw it away.

I can’t think of a way to deal with it right now, so I just threw it away.

I didn’t want to think about anything right now.

“Haa… I’ll have chicken and beer later… “

Because the sun is still in the sky right now.

I wanted to close my eyes for a bit until night fell and I was hungry.

I wanted to rest.

“No, is it real? Damn you for going to another world!”

“No, stop now, bastard. What have you been doing for a month!”

For some reason, I felt alone, so I woke up and called my friends to keep in touch.

And I was honest. He said he had been using magic at the Academy in another world for a month.

Then he was mistakenly caught by the beggar-like princess, scolded him with a confession, and returned after being transported to another dimension.

Of course, no one believed.

I was just treated like a lunatic.

“No, is it real? I was there, huh? He said he caught the demons too. Did you drink with the emperor? You said you messed around with the princess at her wedding!”

“No, didn’t this bastard go to a mental hospital somewhere?”

“What about the company? She said she got a job at best, so she got fired?”

“Of course she didn’t even go to work for the first time and she went diving for a month. Now I have to look for it again.”

A sigh came out just thinking about the company, so I gulped down a beer.

For some reason, it worked out well, but there’s no way I could get into a large company this easily.

“Ha… It’s crazy. It’s stuffy. If that’s the case, what’s the point of being a graduate student… “

All of my friends were already gradually establishing themselves in society.

There was a friend who dropped out of college and started a business and became very successful, and there was a friend who got a job while I was in graduate school and had already established herself in the company.

My friend who had only focused on dancing since he was young has now become a fairly famous choreographer, and among the friends who couldn’t come today, there was a solid businessman.

But because of that goddamn other world, I even kicked off the job I had at a large corporation.

To be honest, it’s just frustrating.

“No, so why did you go diving for a month?”

“No, I went to another world!”

My friends kept asking for the truth, but the words I would spit out were always the same.

***

Half a year after returning to Earth. No, a little more than half a year has passed.

In the meantime, I worked hard again, and thanks to that, I was able to go up to the final interview at a fairly good company, although not as well as before.

And now is the way to go home after the last interview.

Because the company was quite far away, he slept the night before at a nearby friend’s house and was scheduled to arrive home late in the evening.

Since there is almost no chance of failing in the final interview, it seemed like I could almost consider passing.

I was fed up with research, but I had nothing to do other than a research job in my specs. Maybe I will finally start my life as a researcher at a large corporation.

Before I knew it, the memories of that place were gradually being forgotten, and I adjusted to the reality again.

“… Hmm?”

Something seems to be messing up the room.

Although I’m not the type to clean my room that hard, that doesn’t mean I’m not the type to make the room dirty.

Just put things in their places. The appearance of the room does not always change because the desk and drawer are also used and left as they are.

“Something… “

Of course, it wasn’t that the room was extremely dirty or anything like that.

For me, who has always lived under the same rules, there was definitely a sense of incongruity.

“I’m sure… Someone came and went.”

Books and notebooks that are strangely placed and out of order.

When I opened the drawer, the items inside were also placed randomly.

And above all, a bed that someone has climbed on.

The well-arranged blanket was clearly crumpled.

“… f*ck.”

It’s f*cking scary. No, in a house where a man lives alone, what is this?

That said, nothing was stolen. Of course, I had nothing to take.

Or is it hiding somewhere in the house like in the movies? Maybe under the bed…

“Huh… !”

A murderer with a weapon. He hides in his closet and gives off an eerie laugh until the landlord returns.

And the landlord, who noticed something was wrong and tried to run away, he appeared in the closet and stabbed…

“Ser, no way… “

A terrifying imagination comes to mind, but he shakes his head and blows it away.

But, just in case you didn’t know, I took a baseball bat that had been sleeping in the corner and checked every nook and cranny of the house.

“Oh, no one is here… “

However, nothing was found.

I searched every nook and cranny, from under the bed, to the closet, to the bathroom, and even under the sink, but no one came out.

Still, the uncomfortable thing was still there. It was certain that someone had entered my house.

“Should I contact the landlord and watch the cctv?”

If you went in and out of my house, there would have been traces left.

I left contact with the landlord and hurriedly packed my things and left the house.

Today I can’t sleep at home because I’m so scared. I should go to my girlfriend’s house and sleep.
