35 – Ivan Perisic

The second night of the academy

I was sneaking into the academy banquet in the middle of the night.

“Whoa.”

It’s only the second day, so why is it so hard?

Andre seemed to have decided in advance which classes he wanted to attend, but Sunny did not.

He said he would follow me to the class, so the two of us took the class I was scheduled to take.

But I never thought that the gaze toward me would be so stinging.

In [Deus Ex Machina], Dia caught the attention of other students because she defeated Kronia’s golem, but it wasn’t to this extent.

Ah, come to think of it, Dia barely won and I melted her golem….

When you think about it that way, the fanatic interest is understandable.

Anyway, just passing by I caught the attention of all the academy students.

Most of them just looked at me, but some even came and talked to me.

First of all, strange seniors who called themselves Kronia’s fan club came and talked and left. Maybe because he was scared, but he didn’t attack me. No, but was there a Kronia fan club? It didn’t appear in [Deus Ex Machina]. It’s a bit of a shock.

What was it? Did you apologize to Cronia? It was nonsense, so I just ignored it. Didn’t follow Maybe because she was rumored to have overpowered Kronia. I like that one.

They also came from the magic club. Would you like to come in and explore the truth of magic together?

It was a slightly tempting proposal. The president there is the kid I like. But I had no choice but to refuse. In the first place, I don’t even know how to use fire magic.

Those who don’t know the existence of spirits can only think of the flames Ignis created as magic.

Anyway, since I’m not a proper wizard, I couldn’t respond to that offer. In the first place, there are clubs that I plan to join.

Ah, the student council came too.

Would you like to come in?

I didn’t know that a freshman student, especially a student who had just entered the school, would receive a student council recruitment offer.

The student council is a place where only the elite who have shown the most outstanding achievements in the academy are allowed to enter.

That is why only the best among sophomores and above receive recruitment offers.

Even a small percentage of outstanding first-year students receive the offer, but even so, it is possible only towards the end of the first year. This is because they have proven their skills in various academy events and tests.

In [Deus Ex Machina], I had to perform various butt shows as Dia before I could get an offer to join the student council in the second semester of my first year…….

I was in a good mood.

It feels like being possessed by this body without talent and being rewarded for the results of struggling for 10 years.

The student council is difficult to enter, but it is given such powerful privileges and power. It is also one of the highest honors an academy student can have. There were also a lot of characters I liked in the student council, so it was attractive.

However, I have already decided which club to join, and if I join the student council, I will have less free time to use as much as I have to work as a member of the student council.

I couldn’t change the plan anymore, so I refused with tears in my eyes.

If there was a save point like in a game and time could be turned back to this point, the Student Council Luke could have done it too…… !

The wizard club’s proposal was somewhat expected. I didn’t expect the Kronia fan club, but well, I thought that there might be people who would argue.

Still, I never thought the student council would suggest recruitment.

Certainly, overpowering Professor Kronia’s golem must have been a shock to the other students. Of course, she only defeated an ordinary golem among her golems, but she didn’t really beat her golem, but the president stopped it, so I felt like I had completely defeated Kronia.

I had the intention of revealing my strength, but it wasn’t to this extent. I just tried to take the position of a moderately talented student 1, but it turned out to be a complete monster.

In addition, it is known that he is Siren’s older sister’s younger brother, so it seems that the story that he might become that strong in the future has spread.

Sister Siren…… It really doesn’t help.

Anyway, after all these incidents, late at night, I was hiding in the banquet hall where the lights were off and no one was there.

The academy puts the safety of students first, so there is a curfew.

So, I had to go inside the dormitory building by the set time, but now I was in the banquet hall, outside of that time even after that time had passed.

The same banquet hall where the entrance ceremony was held yesterday.

There is a special item hidden in this banquet hall, the hidden piece ‘Avatar’.

Since [Deus Ex Machina] Is a game set in the academy, most of the events occur within the academy. But that’s why it was difficult to draw a story outside the academy.

That’s why the development team introduced this hidden piece called ‘Avatar’.

An artifact with built-in magic that allows the player to explore the academy while taking classes at the same time.

There are also some settings.

About 200 years ago, there was the greatest genius wizard in the history of the academy. His name is Ivan Perisic.

He had a very brilliant brain and excellent magic skills, so he left behind great achievements.

However, because I spent a long time as a graduate student and professor, I was able to accomplish all of my achievements while confined to this academy.

Because of that, his personality also became eccentric, and he hid the various legacies he created all over the academy. For his successor.

Such is the setting.

Thanks to this, a lot of legacy created by Ivan Perisic lies dormant in this academy, and it became a device when the developers of [Deus Ex Machina] Wanted to introduce a special gimmick hidden piece.

From the point of view of the development team, he was really like a ‘Deus Ex Machina’, so he was called Toiban Torishichi and Ao Perishichi by users.

Well, in my position, I am very grateful to be able to eat those hidden pieces raw.

And the legacy of Ivan Perisic that I am going to get today is ‘Avatar’.

From noble mtl dot com

But the problem is…….

Where is it?

I remember hiding it in the banquet hall.

It was a long time ago, so my memory is fuzzy.

I possessed this world and took out a notebook in which I wrote down the things I remembered.

What is written about ‘Avatar’ in the note…….

-Scorched with a fire in the middle of the floor

Ah, I remembered.

When the floor in the middle of the banquet hall was scorched with fire, the hidden magic was activated and the hidden piece popped out.

Uh…… Originally, I was planning to borrow the power of Salamander, no, Ignis.

Ignis Now it has become a top-notch spirit that has attained divinity.

You’re not breaking the magic itself here, are you?

…… Ignis told me to get this, so it’s okay, right?

“Summon Ignis.”

Immediately, the mana drained from my body like an ebb tide.

Ignis fills the dark banquet hall with bright light as if it were daytime.

As expected, she is extremely bright as if she had risen in rank…… This is not the time to be admiring!

Someone might come here after seeing this light. We must quickly enter the space of the Hidden Peace!

“Ignis! Burn the floor here with fire!”

-Okay, Luke!

And a pillar of fire gushing in front of my eyes.

…… What?

A large hole was pierced in the floor by the strong firepower.

It’s gone! What to do with this floor!

At that moment, mana enveloped my body and a magic circle of some sort was activated.

Huh? Did it happen?

Pot

And the next moment I was standing in a dark room.

Teleport.

The magic that Ivan Perisic hides in each of his legacies.

After solving his riddle, the teleport magic is activated and you come to the reward room like this.

Of course, I knew the answer, so I just came without solving the riddle.

You mean there’s an ‘avatar’ here?

Jiing

Suddenly, the face of a middle-aged man appeared in the air like a hologram.

Oh Perishic. Every time I get a reward, I play the saved video like this. Well, I think I would be condescending like this if I handed over something I made with great effort to someone else.

– Welcome. Great one This place… ….

Huh? Something is weird honorific? He’s not talking like this. And the great one? Was the video saved when you got ‘Avatar’ originally like this? I don’t think so.

– This place has been prepared as ordered by the great one. This is where the secret art ‘Avatar’ is stored.

Mystery? ‘Avatar’ must be an artifact.

-The best crystallization of summoning magic that I have studied so far. Magic at its extreme. If you take the pill placed in front of you, you can get that power.

Pills? What happened…….

-Savior. Our…… Please take care of our world.

The hologram turned off after he said his last words.

I could never have thought that something so confusing would happen today.

A pill, not an artifact?

No, Ivan Perisic is from 200 years ago, so why is it different from the game in [Deus Ex Machina]?

What the hell…….

-Take that pill, Luke.

Aww! It’s a surprise. It’s Ignis. Oh, I haven’t been summoned yet. Did you come out while consuming divinity this time too?

– Yes!

I’m sorry, Ignis. Come back at once

I summoned her to her station.

I’d like to ask Ignis about this, but…… You won’t hear the right answer again.

You’ll find out if you take this pill?

My whole body started to be wrapped in mana again.

It must have been the teleport magic that returned.

Pills.

Let’s go back and check.

* * *

Entrance to the banquet hall of the Academy.

“The banquet hall suddenly became bright, so I came to check… ….”

A little girl was standing with her arms crossed.

“Is it the Holy Spirit? At this time in the banquet hall, um……. There must be a reason for everything. Don’t bother and let’s go back. Oh. I don’t want other faculty members to come here either.”
