27 – Entrance Ceremony (3)

What is it?

When I heard that question, I suddenly became curious too.

What on earth am I?

A possessed person who was possessed after writing a review?

Or Carmel, who was taken away by Chaos believers?

These questions that keep coming back and forth always require me to think a lot.

What purpose did the being who possessed me put me in this body?

Then who is that being and what does it want from me?

If I had not been possessed, would the owner of this body really have contained the sins and become one of the Seven Deadly Sins?

I don’t know. At least none of the Seven Deadly Sins that I know had black hair.

After thinking so hard, I came to the same conclusion as usual.

“This is Camel.”

I am Camel. It has been like that since I was possessed, it is still like that now, and it will always be like that.

So there is no need to think deeply.

No matter what a transcendent being whose existence I don’t even know wants from me,

No matter what wishes the Chaos Cult wants to achieve through me.

It has nothing to do with me. I just have to live as myself.

I have no intention of losing myself. I have no intention of living under someone’s control.

I will live the way I want to live.

Do what you want to do, block what you want to stop, and if an urgent fire arises, put it out at the right time.

I will live like that.

“···Good eyes.”

Did he feel that my expression had changed? Dian, who was looking at me blankly, nodded his head without even knowing what I was thinking.

“But it was a joke.”

Showed off his sense of humor.

****

An underground historic site located somewhere, with traces of time intact.

There was a woman sweeping the wall of the largest ancient building there with her hands.

“···It was like that.”

What did I realize? The woman runs her hand through her own white-blonde hair and lets out a deep sigh.

Clatter rattle rattle rattle.

As a woman is lost in her thoughts, she begins to hear an alien sound coming from behind her.

The woman, sensing her popularity, turned her head.

“···.”

What the woman could see was a figure wearing a black robe and holding a blue torch.

“It’s been a while. “Daphne.”

“Malik…?”

“Malik… It’s been a long time since I heard my name.”

Inyoung, holding her blue torch, pulled back her hood to reveal her own face, she said.

“You…”

Daphne’s pupils shook violently upon seeing that.

It was worth it. The only thing exposed above the black robe was a non-existent skull.

“Yes, it happened to be like this. hehehe, who would have known. “If you make one wrong contract, you will end up living like a skeleton for over 1,000 years.”

“···.”

“Oh, don’t pity me. Unlike Daphne, I entered into this contract voluntarily. But, seeing that your limbs are fine, I can’t help but feel jealous. Damn, if I had known this would happen, I would have run away instead of installing it.”

“···You still talk a lot.”

“Daphne, you are still beautiful.”

What about the skull theme?

Malik, who heard Daphne’s muttering, smiled slyly and continued.

“Well, it still has its own rewards. “The fact that Daphne has come this far means that she has found a clue.”

“I didn’t know I would find you.”

“hahahaha, so did I. I thought I would live alone like this for the rest of my life. Well, let’s go in first. “I’m sure you have a lot to say about this damn contract.”

Saying that, Malik turned around and began to clatter his steps.

“Malik.”

Daphne called Malik in a low voice. The walking skeleton stopped in place without turning its head.

“If this contract…”

“This is what I want.”

“···.”

“I couldn’t close my eyes for a very long time. It was so bad that my wish was to fall asleep. So you don’t have to think too much about that.”

“···.”

“But Daphne, it seems like your situation is a little different from mine.”

The skull’s head turns. Malik looked pleased with the skull theme.

“It seems like something precious has been found again.”

“···Yes. It’s not like I’m a favorite… I just have a child I’m taking care of. “

Daphne bowed her head shyly and answered the skeleton’s question.

“I’m jealous. “What kind of friend are you, loved by Daphne, who is famous for her temperament?”

“This kid looks exactly like that guy. “It also has the fate of a vessel.”

“You really have the same taste. “If Daphne were my sister, I would have shaved off all that platinum hair.”

“···.”

“On the other hand, I’m also curious. Ira looks exactly like that unlucky leader… So, what is that kid doing now?”

“···I ran away.”

Clatter.

The skeleton sighed, placing the bones of his hands on his forehead bones.

“···Do you know where you ran away?”

“Yes. “He’s heading north, as if he wants to become an adventurer.”

As Malik listened to Daphne’s answer, he looked at the bracelet on her delicate wrist.

“···Immanuel.”

Skeleton, Malik silently prayed for someone’s peace.

The road to the academy entrance ceremony was very colorful and gorgeous.

Colorful magic flowers fluttering in the air.

Hundreds of people filling the streets.

The fully decorated magic dolls are guiding them.

People, perhaps students, wearing uniforms and moving around busily.

As I was looking at this busy scene, I was walking and thinking about the story I heard from Diane in the professor’s office.

Dian told me many stories.

How serious is it that I summoned an evil spirit?

What does the academy think of me and how do they plan to manage me?

How are classes conducted?

Dian, who told me such useful stories, even taught me how to use the toys he gave me.

“···.”

When the accident reaches this point, my head suddenly starts to feel dizzy.

-“It is a spirit creature called Cheongo (靑烏). “I thought it was an extinct spirit creature, but it was running rampant in your dorm.”

Dian knew Tweet’s identity and knew a lot of information about him.

From noble mtl dot com

-“How do you know? “I was very interested in spiritual things.”

-“According to the book I read, Cheong-oh’s intelligence is higher than that of most people. So there is a high possibility that the bird will understand what you are saying.”

After listening to this point, I had to wrap my head around it. Because it reminded me of the rude things I said to Tweet.

-“It is said that a fully grown Cheongo will be as large as a dragon and can handle mana comparable to that of an archmage. “

-“What does this mean? This means that the bird you raise is a great spirit creature that not only has good physical abilities, but can even use magic. “I don’t know if this is true, but I heard that there is also Cheong-o who enjoys playing with polymorph magic.”

-“Disadvantages? In the book, it was written that he had an energetic stamina that never got tired and a damn personality. “It didn’t seem like that last time I saw it.”

I don’t think so.

“For some reason, I thought he was too lively for a newbie.”

When I imagine that Tweet will continue to disturb my sweet sleep and make fun of me, my headache starts to hurt.

“Carmel Cadet?”

As I was walking and rubbing my temples, someone grabbed my shoulder and spoke to me.

When she turned her head, she saw a woman who felt familiar for some reason.

“Looking at the appearance, it’s true. My name is Anna. He is not a professor, but an ordinary faculty member. “I’m here to guide you.”

“Ah, yes. “It’s Carmel.”

“Yes, nice to meet you, please follow me. Special seats are reserved for those with excellent grades. “Carmel cadets have to go and rehearse, so we have to go quickly.”

I remember. Anna, the NPC who served as a guide from the beginning of the game.

When I actually saw it in person, I felt strange. Anna’s guidance.

“Wait a minute.”

“···?”

Then suddenly I had a doubt, so I grabbed Anna and asked her.

“What rehearsal?”

“What kind of rehearsal is this? It’s an entrance ceremony rehearsal. “Aren’t you the chief cadet in Carmel?”

That’s right, when I answered that, Anna looked at me with eyes that seemed to ask what was going on.

“Then you have to read the oath. “What an honor this is, but you pretend not to know?”

My head turns. A crowd of thousands of people can be seen.

Her head became dizzy.

****

With mixed feelings, I reached the special seating area and found that all four seats except mine were occupied.

“Camel!”

“Ah, you are the senior of this year. Nice to meet you.”

As I enter, Rose waves her hand and welcomes me with a bright smile.

Next to him, a man who looks like chaff, whom I have never seen before, is smiling awkwardly.

I nodded and looked around.

Two men and one woman.

They were all faces I had known for a long time.
