I Escaped the Exile Story Only To Find It Was a Regret Trope

26 – 5# Reunion with Unexpected Friends (1)

Fantasy World.

To summarize more easily, Yoo-shin suffered greatly in the exile story. Because it was a dark fantasy world, all sorts of bizarre things emerged.

For example, serving one’s child as a meal under the guise of hospitality.

A cold-blooded king who sacrifices his people to protect them. And so on.

No wonder he thought he just wanted to disappear when he was exiled.

Although that wish didn’t come true, Yoo-shin had no choice but to clear the current scenario to somehow return.

‘In a typical academy, the second year would be about the midpoint.’

As Yushin had guessed, the scenario was about halfway through.

However, there was a problem. The growth of Baek Yushin, the original protagonist, was still stuck in the early stages.

In other words, stronger enemies were appearing than in the beginning. Yet, the protagonist, Baek Yushin, had not grown at all.

Even if Baek Yushin had not made an extreme choice, he could have lost his life to the enemies. Yushin let out a deep sigh.

“Why are you sighing like that?”

“Just something happened.”

“Could you please stop acting so close to my brother?”

“I, I was also chosen by Yushin!”

One of the reasons Yushin sighed was because of the two girls who fought whenever their eyes met. They were Ha Young from Class C and Baek Yuri, the top student of Class 1A.

Why were they with Yushin?

The answer was simple. They received the privileges of Class S.

Class S had no grade distinctions, unlike other classes.

In other words, whether they were first-year or third-year students, they all took the same classes in the same class.

Moreover, Class S gathered the most talented students in the academy. Each could receive privileges from the academy.

For example, they could take classes with a few students they wanted.

Or they could gain an advantageous position in academy activities. A typical example would be the disciplinary committee and the student council, both of which had significant influence and were part of Class S.

The student council was not to be mentioned, and the disciplinary committee had grown enough to keep the student council in check.

It was needless to say that the heads of both groups were part of Class S. Anyway, as part of those privileges, Yushin could choose three students.

Since there was no one suitable to choose, he just picked three people he knew, and things turned out this way.

“Why do you all fight whenever you get a chance?”

“Because that damn girl keeps flirting with my brother!”

“When did I ever do that!”

“Be quiet, it’s noisy.”

In the end, Yushin, unable to watch any longer, stepped in to mediate the fight, and only then did the girls close their mouths.

Yushin sighed. He wanted to go alone, but he couldn’t. Those girls were likely the heroines of this place.

And the heroines of a regret story were deeply related to the main scenario, just like the protagonist.

In other words, if he left the heroines behind, the main scenario could be ruined. For Yushin, whose goal was to return, there was no reason to create unnecessary variables.

“Why did you choose such a girl?”

“Don’t you think that’s a bit harsh…?”

“Oh, isn’t it better than being shameless?”

“…….”

I wish all the scenarios and everything would just disappear.

Within less than 10 seconds, they started fighting again, and Yushin sighed once more, countless times. There’s no helping it, seeing that makes him so tired.

He couldn’t help but sigh unconsciously.

Yushin lifted his head. After about 30 minutes, he had reached the deepest part of the academy. The newly built new school building came into view. Is this the S class?

“I’ve heard about it, but it’s much cleaner than I thought!”

“Indeed, it looks much better equipped than any other building in the academy.”

“Well, the place we were in wasn’t bad either.”

Just like the evaluations of Selena, Yuri, and Hayoung. The original classroom wasn’t that bad either.

Compared to the sight of the S class unfolding before his eyes, it was nothing. However, Yushin wasn’t particularly impressed. Rather, he was annoyed.

The reason was that it was too far away, making it difficult to commute.

But the annoyance was only momentary. Yushin soon pulled himself together and entered the S class. If it meant returning to the original world, if he could return.

He was willing to adapt to any rhythm.

However, despite his determination.

He never dreamed that an unexpected person would be waiting for him in the S class.

A girl with black hair and sharp eyes.

She had an incredible figure that couldn’t possibly be called a student.

Honestly, at first, he thought she might be the instructor of the S class.

But thanks to Selena’s fuss right next to him, he realized that wasn’t the case.

“Bu, Director! What brings you here?!”

“I heard a new student was coming in. So I wanted to meet them in person.”

‘Judging by Selena’s reaction, is that girl the disciplinary director Kang Seolyeon?’

It was surprising that she had a much more easygoing personality than expected.

He thought she would be much more arrogant and oppressive, being a person of power.

Anyway, since the disciplinary director wanted to meet him in person, Yushin smiled and extended his hand.

“Nice to meet you, my name is…….”

“I already know your name. You’re quite famous, aren’t you?”

“Famous? Me?”

“Of course, you defeated Selena, the promising student of the disciplinary department.”

The one making noise next to him all this time is the promising student.

For a moment, Yushin felt the words rise up to his throat, but he somehow managed to suppress them.

He knew that badmouthing someone in front of others would do no good.

Facing the head of the disciplinary committee, Kang Seol-yeon, Yushin could easily gauge her strength.

‘She’s insanely strong.’

Was it because this was an academy story? In a fantasy world, it would be unimaginable.

There were plenty of people with ridiculous strength at a very young age.

To put it bluntly, Kang Seol-yeon’s strength was at the top of the hero class.

With a little more effort, she might even reach the level of a warrior.

But for such a talent to come out personally to receive a new recruit, that was surprising in itself.

“I’m sorry, I was supposed to introduce the S-class members to you.”

“Is something wrong?”

“Coincidentally, their schedules overlapped, so they are all out. I will be going out tomorrow as well.”

“Going out? Where to?”

“There are various things. Field training, drills, external education, and so on.”

“Does the S-class get support for such things?”

According to Kang Seol-yeon, the S-class received treatment almost equivalent to active duty.

Not only did they receive performance bonuses, but they also participated in monster subjugation.

Of course, subjugating monsters during their academy days would be beneficial for their careers.

However, she added that it was extremely rare for the entire S-class to go out at the same time.

‘Usually, in such cases, the academy gets attacked.’

No matter how he thought about it, it seemed like the S-class was the academy’s top force.

But coincidentally, everyone except him would be absent tomorrow?

No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like a typical attack event in an academy story.

“Could the academy be attacked?”

“What? Haha, that’s impossible.”

At Yushin’s question, Seol-yeon laughed heartily and shook her head.

The academy was an institution that trained future heroes who would subjugate monsters.

In other words, it boasted security equivalent to a military facility. An attack was nearly impossible.

Of course, there had been cases of attacks in the past, but most were repelled at the entrance.

So, Seolyeon explained that there was no need to worry unnecessarily. Yushin nodded.

‘We’ll definitely be attacked, 100%.’

Yushin was now completely convinced of it.

* * *

A foreboding feeling never misses its mark.

The next day, as Yushin was heading to Class S as usual, he soon noticed that the atmosphere was unusual.

There were figures he had never seen before occupying the entrance.

If he didn’t notice, he would be beyond a fool, he would be blind.

Since the alarm hadn’t gone off, it seemed the academy was still unaware that monsters had invaded.

Or perhaps, the security system had been neutralized by someone.

However, there was one thing Yushin hadn’t predicted. The figures in front of him were very familiar to him.

They walked on two legs like humans, but had significantly muscular arms and legs. In contrast, their abdomens were filled with fat.

Their enormous size, reaching up to 4 meters, indicated that they were not ordinary humans. Yushin uttered their name.

“Ogre?”

Why is a monster from a fantasy world here?

No, since there are monsters, there could be ogres.

But, they looked exactly like the ogres Yushin knew.

Despite being from entirely different worlds and scenarios.
