37 – Seiji, Doll of the Apocalypse (10)

When I came to my senses, I was in the recovery room of the temple.

-“Green Cadet? “You did something really great.”

Dian, who was watching me with mixed eyes, said to me.

What I did became public knowledge, and I would be disciplined accordingly.

From noble mtl dot com

The level of disciplinary action is likely to be expulsion.

So, you don’t have to come to class until disciplinary action is taken.

“···f*ck.”

Changgerang, the thrown liquor bottle hits the wall and breaks, making a loud noise.

You can see the scene of a shabby alcove. The bottles of alcohol lying around, the luggage I hurriedly brought with me from the dormitory I was kicked out of.

My teeth are grinding.

Why should I, who had greater expectations than anyone else in my hometown, be treated like this? What am I lacking?

“···.”

It wasn’t enough. Seiji, who was handling the highest level spirit, and Camel, who cut down the highest level spirit in one go and knocked me out without even saying a word to me.

Because they all had talent far superior to mine.

“I want to kill you…”

Inferiority, helplessness, frustration, revenge, such emotions are swirling around me.

On the other hand, the conclusions drawn are quite vain.

It was ruined. Now, rather than looking down on many people, he must receive the disdainful gaze of many people.

My hometown friends who came here with me, cadets of the same age as me, and even the people who will be waiting for me in my hometown.

Everyone will look down on me.

“If only I had been a little stronger…”

I would have killed the people who made me like this.

“I came here to see who was so greedy, and I found an interesting friend.”

In the meantime, a soft voice is heard.

I raise my head.

“You have to have what you want. Is not it?”

A small girl with black hair is seen.

I think I’ve finally gone crazy. I see visions and hear auditory hallucinations.

My body doesn’t even move. I feel a vast and dark energy.

Wait a minute, this energy…

“Do you want me to help you?”

The little girl asked, holding out her hand to me.

You can instinctively know. The moment I hold those hands, I will cross a river of no return.

“···.”

Without hesitation, I held her hand.

****

[Hidden quest ‘Caroline’s Wish’ is in progress.]

This is truly an unkind notice. They give you a quest, and the only explanation is to protect and save them.

Nevertheless, I know exactly what I should do.

Because I know very well what Caroline’s wishes are.

Caroline’s wish was for Seiji, a magic doll, to live as a human.

But this was impossible from the beginning.

Seiji was a magic doll created with forbidden magic, a being who had to live only for the Master.

So Caroline gave a command to her magic doll. Ask her to be your own daughter, not her magic doll.

Sage followed the Master’s orders and became Caroline’s daughter.

But Caroline died, and Seiji became a magic doll again. A doll who lives a meaningless life while carrying out the orders given by the Master.

There was only one way to save Seiji.

‘Giving orders again.’

Learn and have emotions and live as a human being.

Once the order is given, Seiji, a magic doll, will live the rest of her life carrying out the order given by the player.

Even though I am now just a cold doll with no emotions.

Seiji, whom she found out about her feelings, was a lovely and attractive person.

‘It’s because I learned a lot of useless emotions.’

Obsessedness, jealousy, envy, greed, etc.

Sage, who acquired unnecessary emotions, made it difficult for the player in many ways.

It’s not that the innocence is bad, but it was not a welcome experience from the player’s perspective because the difficulty of the game increased exponentially.

“Does it matter?”

Twiddling with the magic mask I kept in my arms, I decided to check the plan I had made in my head.

[Protect and save Caroline’s magic doll from evil. (Remaining time: 24 hours 20 minutes)]

Looking at the notification window, it is clear that Chaos Cult is going to do something.

And yesterday and today, when classes were held only in the classroom, nothing happened to Seiji.

So, if the Chaos Church was to do something, it was certain that it would be tomorrow, when the joint training class was scheduled.

For the Chaos Church, it was a natural thing. Rather than taking the risk of raiding the Academy, it would be more reasonable to take Sage outdoors.

‘Good.’

I feel grateful to the Chaos Church.

The reason is not because they are pretty.

It’s just that in order to give orders to Seiji, they need their magic energy and a place for them to create it.

If the conditions are met on their own, how can you not be grateful?

If all goes as planned, starting tomorrow Seiji will be able to live with emotions as a human being.

“I wish I could learn good feelings first…”

A part of my heart felt uneasy. When Seiji returns to his empty house, it’s so obvious what his first feelings will be.

“Tweet!”

While I was thinking that, Tweet pecked my arm.

Is it already time to feed him? It seems like I’ve been eating more and eating more often lately.

“···.”

Tweet was tearing off the beef jerky and dropping it in front of him.

“Tweet.”

“Tweet?”

“You, let’s go on a business trip for a week.”

A not bad thought occurred to me.

****

The time it takes for the sun to be in the sky.

All cadets from the Combat Department were gathered in front of a huge cave on the academy grounds.

“Cadets.”

And then Professor Dian and Professor Kalmia appeared in front of the cadets.

“Everyone knows what this class is, right? “With that belief, we will announce the organized groups first.”

The cadets begin to show various reactions to the sound of group formation.

A nervous look, an excited look, and a seemingly calm look.

“I wish I could be in the same group as Camel. Please.”

And Rose, who was praying earnestly with her hands folded.

Since they would be assigned in order of grades anyway, she wouldn’t be in the same group as Rose, but she didn’t bother to say it out loud.

“Team 1, Sage, Kevin, Ketil, Linda. Mike.”

“Team 3, Camel, Daisy, Rachel, Muto, Jace. “

“20 Trillion…”

Dian announced the group in a calm tone, and this time, the cadets showed various reactions.

“Ha, there are only commoners in the group.”

“Oh! “The composition is so good, isn’t it?”

“Oh, I don’t like him.”

“I wanted to become friends with her, and it worked out well!”

Either way or not.

After remembering which group I belonged to, I was busy checking the plan by identifying the location of the demon energy I could feel in the cave.

“Focus on cadets.”

As he was doing so, Dian called the cadets with mana in his voice, and then began explaining the contents of the class.

“After 20 minutes of discussion, each group enters the ‘Training Cave’ in order.”

“The cadets’ mission is to reach the central cavity while dealing with magic dolls. There is no need to worry that it might be dangerous. “The magic dolls here can cause violence to the cadets, but they are designed not to endanger their lives.”

“For your information, additional points will be awarded to cadets who show excellent performance. So, let the cadets work hard and achieve good results. Now, I’ll give you 20 minutes. “Take time to say hello or discuss things with your group members.”

After Dian’s explanation was over, the cadets began to gather in their groups, and I walked towards the place where the flag that said Group 3 was placed.

“Hibb.”

As soon as I arrived, I heard the sound of hiccups.

‘Hey, why are you really like this?’

When I looked at the source of the hiccups, I saw Daisy looking frightened.

“Nice to meet you. “I really wanted to be in the same group!”

“Please take care of me!”

Next, I saw two men greeting me as if they were really happy to see me.

“···.”

I saw Rachel looking at me with contempt.

When she saw that, she felt unfair, but at the same time, she understood.

‘Because Rachel is close to Fran.’

It may be natural that you feel bad about me.

Well, it was an attitude that could have been helpful to me as I had to leave the group to save Seiji.

****

The Training Cave is an artificial dungeon created by Adel, the original great wizard and founder of Aden Academy, to train younger students.

As a dungeon created by an archmage, the interior of the training cave is as large and complex as that of most villages, and within it, over hundreds of magic dolls exist, carrying out Adele’s orders.

Magical dolls of various appearances, such as demons and monsters, attack the cadets in order to promote their growth. To the extent that it is not life-threatening.

On the other hand, if a dangerous or emergency situation occurs, the cadets are also protected.

The reason was simple. Because Adele ordered it to be done.

Cadets do not have to feel guilty while dealing with these magic dolls. This is because, even if Adele’s magic dolls are destroyed, they are restored over time.

-Chaaa!

Putting my guilt aside, I swung my sword without hesitation because I needed to move quickly.

“Wow…”

“Amazing… He’s also a senior.”

“Hibb.”

You can hear the voices of team members admiring the falling magic dolls.

It was worth it. Because they have never been able to draw a sword or chant magic.

‘It would be better to finish it quickly and move on.’

There were two ways to secretly reach Seiji, who would soon be in danger.

First, how to complete the mission and sneak out of the central cavity before the Chaos Cult does anything.

If you complete the mission on time, it is the most reasonable method. It will be easy to get out with a suitable excuse, and you will also get extra points.

Of course, the first method I chose was this first method, and to this end, I had been swinging my sword in front of my group members.

I’ve been meaning to keep going like this for some time.

“No, over there. Why do you keep acting the way you want? “Because you want to take the score all by yourself?”

Unfortunately, I think I’ll have to give up on the first method because of that friend.

“Rachel, you better stop it…”

“Stop doing something. We can’t do anything right now. “Because of that selfish person.”

You can see a girl with orange hair drying daisies.

Rachel van Armad.

She is the adopted daughter of Count Armad, the owner of the trade guild ‘Armad’, and one of the main characters in the game.

‘I was whining a lot at this point.’

Many episodes related to Rachel came to mind.

Sage was more important right now, so I quickly put her information about Rachel out of my head and looked at Rachel.

“What are you looking at? Why? “Are you going to tell other people to harass me and then watch?”

Then Rachel started speaking rapidly, as if she had been waiting.

I called Rachel in her low voice.

“Hey.”

“Hey? Why are you stopping talking? Is it all about being a senior? How dare you talk to a commoner who couldn’t even talk to you outside… “

Rachel huffed, and she approached me and tried to scold me.

It was like that, so there was nothing I could do. I have no choice but to choose the second method.

So.

-aaah!

“Kyaaah!”

After swinging her sword, she looked at Rachel’s falling bangs and said.

“If you’re that dissatisfied, do it yourself. Because I will let you go. “You’re whining really loudly.”

After saying that, I tried to ignore the yip coming from next to me and started to turn her body around.

The second way to secretly reach Seiji.

That was just a fuss.
