I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

100.Final Exam…Is the End of Service (2)

Final exam.

The final stage that marks the end of the first semester of the first year.

The Wailing Wall at the beginning of Survival Academy.

Here, how well you develop your character will have a big impact on clearing the mission.

Since most training concepts were figured out by this point, it was a very important turning point for players. After this period, it is actually long past time to change the training method.

You can’t do anything that breaks in the middle.

Therefore, the third ordeal that came to the protagonist would be a very important test.

Evaluating how we can overcome the events that will occur in the future.

…The problem is that there is no Karina.

If nothing else, the question is whether there is a way to replace Karina. Survival Academy’s balance was not very good, to say the least, and the balance on the healer side was so serious that it was clearly written in the strategy that the healer side was lower than Karina.

Especially in the beginning, there are no significant healer characters other than Karina, so unless the level is so high that it is possible to clear without Karina, it is common sense to take Karina with you as a companion.

The problem is…Karina couldn’t even enter school.

The Hellhound had already become a victim due to Karina’s absence in her, and her demon summoning eliminated the cause and dealt with the situation before it happened. However, due to the nature of the final dimensional rift incident, there is no way to prevent it in advance.

To prevent that, I would have to either cancel the final exam or change the location, but both are out of my control. I’m not the chairman of the board, I’m just a bodyguard, so I can’t have that kind of power.

In the end, the only option left to me was to sneak into the crime scene and secretly take care of the main character. The main character of the game is subject to all kinds of unreasonable corrections, so as long as you give him a little help, he will take care of everything.

Anyway…

-Mission-

-Please help Lewis successfully complete his final exam.

Reward: Attribute Point 3

Unbeknownst to me, the quest to become friends with Elisa was broken, and the new mission explicitly told me to interfere with the main story.

Meanwhile, it was a bonus to let people know that Lewis was the original protagonist.

But then.

What is the purpose of forcing me to participate in the main scenario?

Because I’m irregular? Or some other intention? Is it possible that there is a person named Johann Quartz, whose name I don’t know, but who is related to the main scenario?

I don’t know the names of all the NPCs, but I don’t remember seeing anyone named Johan or the last name Quartz. No one showed a noticeable reaction when they heard my last name, so it must not be a known last name on this continent.

Why on earth was the owner of this body stranded on a deserted island? What is this strange status window?

…Later, when I have some free time, should I ask Cipro to ask a question?

If you’re truly a stranger among strangers, you won’t be able to find any clues inside the academy anyway.

“…Done. “What is the point of continuing to think about a problem that has no answer?”

I woke up from the bed in the secret hideout I had made in the basement.

One of the hideouts hidden between the tunnels I built under the academy. I had entered the tunnel with only the bare minimum of luggage.

In order to achieve the purpose of requesting leave, I needed to enter the tunnel without anyone knowing, so I took special care and entered through a hidden entrance in the studio.

I came in without anyone knowing, so the only one who knew I was here was Sif.

I didn’t want to attract attention, so I entrusted Sif with delivering the goods. This has been the method used since the tunnel was dug. In particular, if it were not for this tunnel when transporting mithril by air, we would not have been able to bring it safely to the workroom.

“…When will Sif come?”

“Did you call me?”

“Are you here?”

A stray cat showed its face at the entrance of the hideout and entered the hideout with a mischievous smile. A backpack the size of my body was a bonus. Suin, a cat who loves money more than anyone else, put down his backpack next to the bed, humming happily, wondering if the pay he would receive was that good.

“I bought everything you said, give me the money!”

“It’s hot.”

I dropped the three gold coins I had saved as money into Sif’s palm

“Uhuhu…”

“Are your younger siblings doing well?”

“I’ve gained a lot of weight these days and I’m wondering if I should exercise~”

Well, the money she earned from working as my subordinate would be 50 gold coins, so there’s no way she’d be hungry.

About 50 gold coins is enough money to live without worrying about food for about a year, assuming you save money.

“Thank goodness.”

“So, our esteemed employer. “Isn’t there more work to do?”

It’s work… I glanced at Sif, who was looking down at me while rubbing her palms like a traitor. Their eyes meet, filled with anticipation. This cat girl, who seemed to embody greed itself, was a pretty useful ally, assuming she paid the right price.

Loyalty… I don’t know, but the ability to hide, which no one knows about until you get close, as well as the unique skill looting, is an ability that can be used in many ways. Moreover, the reality is that her cooperation is essential in secretly importing some expensive materials into the Academy. After thinking for a moment, I hinted.

“Sif, do you want to do something big with me?”

“Big deal? “Is it profitable?”

“I don’t know yet.”

Honestly, I don’t think it will make any money. Since the work to be done this time is close to the following, there may be no income at all. In worst-case situations, you may need to step up…

I just hope not.

Although she’s not sure if that will be possible since Karina missed her final exam. If any of the games where you have a job or position are left out, you can’t help but cringe. Especially if it’s a healer.

“Why not!”

“Surprisingly.”

“Because it’s what you do and there’s nothing that doesn’t make you money!”

It was a strangely confident voice. If you think about it, it’s not entirely wrong. Because I used to stubbornly look for things that would make me money.

The amount of money that was immediately spent through this tunnel was an amount that would be difficult to touch in one’s entire life.

Most of it was spent on mithril, but…

“The operation begins tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow… Isn’t it the final exam?”

“How did you know?”

“As you walk around the streets, information accumulates!”

“Then it will be easy to talk about. We have final exams tomorrow. Specifically, I plan to sneak into the dungeon.”

“What?”

Why do you look confused? Shouldn’t I slowly figure out what I’m trying to do and be very aware of it? What should I do with that senseless cat thief? I kindly added an explanation for Sif, who knows one thing and doesn’t know two.

“I received information that a dimensional rift will appear in the final exam dungeon tomorrow. We fall into the cracks.”

“What do you mean? A dimensional rift will open tomorrow? How do you know that?”

Sif’s gaze sharpened at the word dimensional rift. Is it because he knows the dangers of dimensional cracks? She poured out the information she knew with her rapid fire.

“Is there anyone who doesn’t know that? If that comes out, the surrounding area will be devastated! Monsters also pop out from inside! A week ago, a dimensional rift burst in the dungeon and all the adventurers who were exploring it died.”

Annihilation…Ira. It’s worth it. This is a phenomenon where the sky suddenly opens and a dungeon appears.

Although it can occur in places other than dungeons, it is the most threatening disaster when it occurs in a dungeon. If it opens in a city or a plain, it’s okay to jump out, but if it opens in a dungeon, there are many cases where you get trapped.

“Did something like that happen? Do not worry. Because the crack that opens tomorrow won’t be that dangerous.”

The crack that opens tomorrow is a crack whose difficulty has been carefully adjusted to improve the player’s specs. In terms of difficulty, it would be a little more difficult than the previous two incidents.

“Is that reliable information?”

“Don’t you trust me?”

“Uh…This case is so absurd that it’s hard to believe.”

“If you find it hard to believe, you don’t have to participate in this.”

I suggested it because I thought it would be more convenient, not because it was absolutely necessary.

At my words her her, Sif crossed her arms and made a groaning sound as if she was a little worried, and then she answered me as if there was nothing she could do.

“Our water… I don’t think my employer will lie, so I’ll trust him!”

I think I was just trying to tell you to give me some water. When I glared, Sif immediately avoided his eyes and looked the other way. Out of shame, I lightly squeezed the top of his head, shook his hand, and gave him an order.

“Then, unpack properly and rest. “I’ll be busy starting tomorrow morning.”

“Okay~”

Sif took out various items from her backpack with familiar movements and began to organize them one by one. Just looking at what he does makes him seem like he’s just living his life, but he lives more sincerely than I thought. After watching Sif organize things step by step, I lay down on the bed again and looked at the ceiling.

I’m not really sleepy, but I don’t feel like going out and working right now. I planned to sleep for a while and then start working late at night.

“I’m going to sleep for a while, so you can rest on your own.”

“I’m hungry… Do you have anything to eat?”

“I have a sandwich in my bag, take it out and eat it. “I have to eat too, so don’t eat it all.”

“Sandwich?”

I could hear anticipation in Sif’s voice her her, as if she was remembering the sandwiches made by the employees of Yeomyeonggwan. The sandwiches made by the chef who works at Yeomyeonggwan are delicious.

But the sandwich I brought wouldn’t have the taste Sif wanted.

…Because I made it.

I stared blankly at the ceiling and closed my eyes.

The next time you open your eyes, the operation will begin.
