The Munchkin Disciple Wants To Stop Being Obsessed Over

21 – Academy after 7 years

I was clearly possessed in the game.

It took as long as seven years to actually set foot in the academy, which was the setting of the game.

“Oh.”

After passing the main gate the size of a castle gate, magnificent buildings spread out beyond.

Is that all?

You can see colorful magic circles spread out all over the place.

You can also see magic dolls of various shapes moving around busily.

This is definitely the scenery of Arden Academy that I’ve been watching through the monitor for a long time.

The scenery of Aden Academy, which I witnessed in person, heard the sounds, and felt on my skin, gave me an indescribable emotion.

By the way.

“Where should I go?”

The site is so big that I can’t even think of finding my way around it.

How long have you been looking around?

Someone spoke to me, poking my shoulder with a finger.

“Just look at the sign over there and follow it.”

When I turned my head, I saw an elderly man pointing with his finger toward the side of the front door.

“Ah, thank you.”

Didn’t you see that? Feeling embarrassed for a moment, I bowed my head and said hello, then looked at the behavior of the old man who helped me.

Comfortable everyday clothes, a gray beard that hangs down to his chest, and curly hair.

The benevolent-looking old man was holding a broom.

“I hope we get good results and can see you again. Well, I don’t know if a kid who can’t even find the signs will be able to pass. Clue.”

As he said that, the old man turned around and immediately began sweeping the fallen flower petals with a broom.

It was an afterword that could have been unpleasant to a sensitive person, but it didn’t feel bad.

‘Who was it?’

It was a face I had clearly seen, but I couldn’t remember, so I just tilted my head.

“Well, I’ll see you again.”

I’ll be spending nearly 4 years at the academy anyway, so if that old man is an important person, wouldn’t we get involved again somehow?

Thinking like that, I turned around.

“···.”

While walking along the sign, a sudden feeling of self-destruction struck me.

What on earth was I doing 7 years ago, and the only faces that come to mind clearly are female characters?

After taking a moment to reflect, I made a new resolution.

It will continue to be like that in the future.

“Is this place?”

As I walked, I found myself in front of a magnificent building with the name Phoenix Hall written on it.

It wasn’t difficult to decide on a direction. All you had to do was follow the arrow drawn magically on the floor.

“Huh.”

I just came to submit an application for admission. I felt strangely nervous and caught my breath.

If I open this door in front and enter, I can fill out an application for admission.

Also, if I remember correctly, a special person will be accepting the application today.

‘Diane Van Ranunculus.’

A main character in the game who is from the warrior party and has been newly appointed as a professor.

‘It only appeared on the last day of application for admission.’

It’s been two days since I arrived in Adenia, where the academy is located, but the reason I came to submit the application today was entirely because of Dian.

‘Do you want to give me a quest?’

What I wanted to check was whether the hidden quest occurred normally.

Because, if a hidden quest occurs like in the game, I will be able to receive various special benefits from Dian.

With that in mind, I wrapped my body in more mana than necessary and opened the door.

It was necessary to get Dian’s attention.

-Ratly.

‘Oh.’

When I opened the door, as expected, Dian, a middle-aged man with pale blonde hair, was sitting in his seat. Next to him, Professor Kalmia, a woman with dark gray hair, was looking at me with her mouth open.

“Oh…! If you are here to fill out an application for admission, you can come here.”

As soon as I sat down, Dian started asking me questions with an interested face.

“What is your name? Where are you from?”

“Just looking at it, it looks like you’re going to the combat department. What is your specialty? Fence? Magic? Well, anyway, you learn it as a common subject in your first year, and you can decide on your department in your second year, so you can decide slowly, but I can’t help but be curious.”

“Where did you stay? Have you eaten? Why do you look at empty space like that? “Is it a habit?”

Dian’s barrage of questions.

I answered sincerely, but I was so distracted that I felt as if my soul was flying beyond the universe.

And above all.

‘Quest doesn’t appear?’

I stared into space, but unfortunately the quest notification I was looking forward to did not appear.

It was strange. I see that Dian is asking more questions than necessary, so I think I’ve met the requirements, but why isn’t it showing up?

‘It’s not a game, is it?’

Suddenly a thought occurred to me. I think that might be enough.

“It was nice to meet you. Camel County. I wish you good luck in your entrance exams.”

“Yes, thank you.”

In the end, the quest notification did not appear until I heard Dian’s farewell, and after completing the application, I got up from my seat, leaving Dian’s regretful look in her eyes.

‘The hidden quest linked to Dian was truly a piece of cake.’

I was the one who was really disappointed.

****

The boy with black hair goes outside and the door closes.

“I’ll buy you the alcohol.”

Dian, who saw that, made a suggestion to Kalmia who was sitting next to him in a calm voice.

“Why? Not interested? “After going through all that trouble, you’re pouring in a lot of questions.”

“It’s the opposite. “It was so interesting that I couldn’t resist.”

“But why are you buying alcohol? “I think I was the one who lost the bet.”

“Because I feel good. “It’s my first time seeing such a monster.”

“Well, I know that guy is outstanding, but isn’t that too much of an evaluation?”

Kalmia asked curiously, and Dian shook her head and continued.

“No, I may have underestimated it.”

“Huh?”

“The mana that friend was wearing was only a small portion. “He seemed like a friend who had a lot to hide.”

“What? Does that make sense?”

Kalmia was shocked and asked Dian back.

Even to Kalmia, the mana of the boy she had just seen was at the top level among freshmen. But what? That’s only a small part?

“Uh. Are you sure.”

Dian responded by tapping her golden eyes. Kalmia, who saw that, felt dizzy.

“Ah, I must be very tired this year.”

This year, an unusually large number of talented and troublesome positions were brought in by new students.

If Dian is not mistaken, the boy I saw earlier will be the one who stands out the most among those new students.

“Oh, for no reason did I say I would be in charge of first year students.”

Kalmia spoke as she placed her hand on her head, and Dian, who soon stood up from her seat, asked her Kalmia.

“I guess the principal will be in the principal’s office. “I have something to ask.”

“No, he’s probably hanging out near the front door?”

“Are you playing?”

“Well, pretending to clean and previewing new students is a game of its own for that person.”

“Have you become senile? Why are you doing such a strange thing? Tsk.”

After saying that, Dian went straight out the door, and Kalmia looked behind her and muttered quietly.

“I don’t think that’s what you, the guy who came to collect application forms in person to look at new students, would say… you idiot.”

The ‘asshole’ that Kalmia uttered contained many meanings.

****

After submitting my application for admission, I wandered around the academy for a while, then sat on a bench and complained.

“That’s strange. “Why isn’t it showing up?”

Unfortunately, there was no income.

I checked all the quests, even those with minor rewards, but I didn’t receive any notifications.

‘I’ll have to assume there are no quests.’

I thought that might be the case. But when I actually tried to accept it, I couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

‘It was popular 7 years ago. We also achieved 10%.’

The reason why I couldn’t let go of my regrets was clear.

I once received a quest reward.

And I can see that there is still one quest left to progress.

[Receive swordsmanship and magic from Daphne. (Progress: 10.00002%)]

I remember clearly. When the progress of this quest exceeds 10%, you will receive a notification informing you that you can now proceed with other quests.

‘Is it bugeun?’

It was a plausible inference. [Harem Academy] Was a game that had a lot of minor bugs.

“f*ck.”

As soon as my thoughts reach this point, a thick curse naturally leaks out.

I didn’t feel good. Even though I am possessed in a game, isn’t this the reality where I actually live?

But what? A bug?

If this situation was really due to a bug, I felt bad. If it wasn’t a bug, I felt bad because the world seemed to be strict only towards me.

“Ah!”

Then something occurred to me, and I started to walk.

Just to check one last time to see if the quest really isn’t showing up.

“Let us punish evil…”

If you look closely, he is a friend who stays calm and does not cause any damage throughout the game until he becomes subordinate to the Chaos Church.

It didn’t matter.

Because what I desperately needed right now was something to vent my anger on rather than a quest.

It’s been a while since I’ve been able to use violence… No, I guess it’s because I can swing a sword.

I started to feel better again.
