Chapter 7 – There Is a Ninja in 3rd Grade Class F (02)

“Hoo?”

When I found Rita right away, Cylian reacted with interest and the other students also looked a little surprised.

Rita herself must have been quite surprised as she was frozen with the invisibility cloak held by me.

I found out later, but in fact, Rita attended school faithfully and stayed in school well.

However, because of the [Invisibility] Characteristic, it is not noticeable, so during the first playthrough, we only meet for the first time after Rita’s invisibility cloak disappears due to an accident in the middle of the game.

At that time, Rita was reciting information about her main character, Aren. In fact, she had collected information about everyone in the classroom and was quite interested in her main character.

When I talk to her, she says that she has been keeping an eye on me from the beginning, which means that she has been collecting information about me since I first transferred to the school. Currently, Ophelia is surrounded by other girls, so she will collect information about me first… Is a mess.

‘I’m the main character, so he’ll be near me’

I tried it based on an extremely systematic judgment.

Originally, in the game, you would move around in the air and talk when the interaction key appeared, and after asking ‘Is this an illusion?’ A few times, Rita would turn off her invisibility and start talking to you, but now that I can control it, I can use the invisibility cloak. It was peeled off.

“…”

Rita basically doesn’t speak. She writes when she needs to, but it wasn’t until she got past the best friend stage that she could hear her voice.

She took out her pen and notebook from her pocket inside her own invisibility cloak and asked me to quickly write down her words.

[How did you know?]

“I saw something shaking right in front of my eyes, so I grabbed it.”

[Our family’s invisibility does not show itself in that way]

I know.

Originally, the cloak with the invisibility magic had slight distortions, so if you were very attentive, you could see it, but her invisibility was not simply due to the invisibility cloak.

“I have the ability to see through people.”

In fact, when I was concentrating and trying to check each person’s stats, I was able to check Rita’s stats, not Hollio’s stats in the front seat.

‘No matter how transparent it is, you can’t escape the system.’

Normally, in a classroom, you have to open a chat window to check the other person’s stats, and even then, you have to be at least an acquaintance to see the stats, and until then, only the portrait appears as ?.

Since I am not controlling the game indirectly, but can see it with my own body, I was caught because I forced the stat window to appear.

‘This is also because everyone is treated as allies’

In the first place, if you are an enemy, you cannot check the enemy’s abilities without observation skills or special items.

Of course, there were people who ripped the game program itself and posted it as a strategy, so I had memorized the approximate abilities, such as the final boss’s health of 50,000.

“Are you Rita?”

“…”

When I called the name, the name Rita was unlocked in the character status window. This was because in situations where the information was already known, it was not obscured by ?.

Her eyes turned fierce.

How did she know, she was glaring with the look on her face, so she deliberately shrugged her shoulders and made an excuse she had thought of beforehand.

“I heard the names of people who will become friends from Teacher Karen.”

Poof.

Rita displeasedly retrieved her invisibility cloak from my hand and disappeared again. She was a flea that had to hide to me, who could see her status window. It seems like she’s going back to her seat, but then she sneaks back behind me.

– Rita’s favorability has reached the ‘Acquaintance’ level –

The portrait’s expression was slightly flushed, and no matter how much you hide the main body, you can’t hide the status window.

‘Well … Even though she seems to dislike her based on her her visible attitude her her her, she is starting to target standard likability.’

Rita likes men with good information and insight. I don’t know if he feels a sense of kinship as a ninja, or if he just likes an intelligent image.

Haha! That’s amazing?”

Cylian, who was watching this, approached and held out his hand first.

“Sailian.”

“Aren. You already know the name.”

“Teacher Karen called my name several times.”

The Cylian is shaking my hand while grinning. Anyone could see that I was just a timid assistant NPC, and I thought this was the standard for an RPG protagonist.

“It took us half a year to realize Rita’s existence.”

“Half a year? Didn’t he reveal his true identity her her only after Rita was in her second year?”

In response to Hollio’s question, Sailian smiled sinisterly, and Hollio seemed to have realized only then that some of the most powerful people here had been aware of Rita’s existence her in advance.

However, for each individual’s own reasons, Sailian in particular did not show it out of respect for Rita’s reason for hiding her appearance.

“Anyway, they’re all monsters…”

“I’ll take this as a compliment. And I’ll take good care of you in the future, Aren.”

“Ah. Yes…”

Cylians like outstanding talent.

The [Prince of Light] Characteristic is not simply a metaphor, but it indicates that the Sailian is the prince of this kingdom, that is, of royal blood, so he is truly a prince on a white horse.

– Sylian’s favorability has reached the ‘Acquaintance’ level –

‘If you have good performance and become friends with the Cylians, you can also become friends with the knight family, so it wouldn’t be a bad thing.’

In the first episode, I was frantically trying to become friends with everyone, but things got messy, with my friends fighting with each other and my likability falling, so I ended up missing out on Cylian as well.

When progressing through the academy route, if the Silian’s favorability is high enough to be a close friend, he will transfer command to me and support me as a soldier and fight as a knight and heir to the throne. However, if the favorability is low, he will only create a separate guerrilla unit and allow me to fight.

As you defeat the enemy, the reinforcements and items that come in little by little, and the NPCs that come to help decrease, so the difficulty gets worse.

For reference, I was neutral in the beginning because I was just an acquaintance, but when I carried out a sacrificial operation in the middle, the Cylians became enraged and immediately went up to the hostile level, so I woke up with just Marian.〈 Br〉

“Then let’s meet at lunchtime.”

Perhaps because no one had any intention of going to class, or because they knew that self-study would begin today, the students of Class F who had gathered were slowly leaving the classroom one by one.

In order to prevent students from having to spend all day talking to each other in the classroom and trying to improve their favorability, once they raised the favorability rating of about two students, they were allowed to disperse on their own. From here, they could follow or visit students who needed them and increase their favorability rating further.

Grumbling.

As I was about to go outside, dragging a chair, Ophelia stopped talking and followed me.

“Aren, where are you going?”

“Toilet.”

In fact, it didn’t matter where it was.

After taking out a mirror and looking behind me to see a small status window pop up, I headed to the rooftop of the deserted Class F building.

Rattling.

It was a place that couldn’t be opened because it was locked, but I put my hand through the gap between the roof and the window, removed the window itself, and took out the key hidden underneath.

Dalkak.

This key was hidden by Alice. She deliberately broke the lock she originally used to lock the door to her rooftop and replaced it with a lock she had prepared a spare key for in advance.

Thanks to this, the teachers thought the rooftop was completely blocked, but Alice was able to easily get inside using the spare key.

Shocking.

The only ones who know about this are Alice, who changed the lock, and Rita, who gathered information on Class F students?

I’m sure he knew this information, but he seemed curious about how the person who first transferred to the school knew.

‘Today is the day Alice doesn’t come out… So there’s no one on the rooftop.’

It was an old Class F building, but I liked the rooftop.

Alice brought dirt into the broken holes here and there to create a simple vegetable garden, and in the center tent there was a magic telescope for viewing the sky and books on astronomy, but if you touch it, an alarm spell will set off, so you don’t touch it.

As soon as I entered the entrance, I looked back and said.

“I guess this is enough, right? Rita.”

Even though I called once, Rita didn’t answer.

It seemed like she stayed still out of curiosity, but as I was staring at the part where her status window was displayed, Rita’s black hair appeared in the transparent space after a while.

Sssssuk. Ssyuk.

[How…]

“I told you. I have the ability to see through people.”

Rita, who was writing her handwriting, frowned and continued speaking.

[I don’t know what tricks she used…]

“I also know that your real name is Inori Tanami.”

“…!”

Dalgak…

The pen in Rita’s, or rather Inori’s, hand fell to the floor.

It would be hard to expect that someone you met for the first time would suddenly call you by your name, and that it would be your real name and not your external name.

“Oh, how!”

Even in the first round, Rita’s favorability did not increase significantly and it led to her leaving her without difficulty, so it was not information I gathered myself.

‘It was on the wiki’

It is written as Rita (spoiler) on the wiki, and her true name is listed there.

She took off her mask and asked me in a hurry, but since she was already in control, I crossed her arms with a sly expression on her face, and she covered her nose again with her mask, even though she was Trembling.

“Her name Rita was also changed to Inori Tanami in the local style, and her first letters she were taken from it, right?”

This is also what I saw on the wiki.

Originally, in order to become friends with Rita, you had to use her station her to get her her her her her, but Rita appeared periodically and swept away her her own information her her her, so it It was impossible to get it right.

So, you have to leave everything to her luck and keep talking to Rita, who is hiding through invisibility, to raise her favorability rating. However, the characters in Celestial Academy appear randomly, so if you are unlucky, you won’t be able to fully fill her favorability rating by targeting only Rita.

Even if you are lucky and keep finding her, when you reach the end of your best friend, unlike other female characters, the lover stage is not activated. At that time, you and your friends attack her to save her from being taken to her parents’ home for violating confidentiality through an event. I had to fight against endless shadow clones.

It is not cleared by catching a certain number of her, but after a certain number of turns, you are forced to lose and Rita’s favorability her her her is reset.

In order to clear it, you have to move the main character to go into her her room her her her and pick the name her her her written on her her genealogy her her her while blocking her through her Her friends her her her, which is also really vicious.

Since the battle begins by introducing her parents ‘her last name her her as Yujiro Kitazawa, if you call her Kitazawa Inori after her father’s last name her, you will be wrong and Rita’s favorability will be reset and she will come back.

In order to keep the ninja family secret, even new surnames are given from time to time, so her actual last name is Tamami, written in a child’s scribbles on the wall of the room where the genealogy was found.

If you succeed, you will be able to save Rita according to the family’s rules and become a best friend.

The family rules are…

“Always live as an unknown person without a name. If necessary, use a pseudonym that can be discarded at any time. However, tell your true name to only one person.

Rita bowed her own face as I, who knew everything about her, called out the rules of her family.

“I can’t believe you have this level of insight…”

Since there was no longer a need to hide herself with her her mask her Rita, or rather Inori, took off her her own mask her her her.

Her expression showed respect, trust, and affection.

“A lowly woman from the Shadow family meets her her her her lord her her her.

– Rita’s name is changed: Rita -〉 Tamami Inori –

– Inori’s characteristics are changed: Invisibility -〉 Shadow Ninjutsu –

– Inori’s favorability has reached the ‘Master’ level –

The one who tells her her name her is the one who will become the master who will give his all her her her her.


Inori was such a difficult character to obtain, but once she reached the master level, her favorability did not decrease no matter what methods were used.

And she was difficult in the first round, but in the second round, I was able to guess her name through a few keywords, so I was able to get her from the beginning.

‘Of course, in order to have the option to ask for Inori’s name, you must first hand over the data that made her master at least once, and even after that, you have to wait until the middle of the game to open the option to ask for the name…’

Now that I can talk freely, I was able to get Inori just by saying her name.

“I’ll ask you to take care of me in the future as well.”

“Yes, my lord.”

And since Inori’s birthday her is in July, she didn’t get screwed up like Marian did by getting buggy tendencies in her adult mode.

She’ll have to do well after July, seeing as she’s randomly assigned sexual orientation.

When I get close to her, it seems like a new window pops up next to her face and then disappears … I guess I’m mistaken, right?

‘Well… It’s a mode with a lot of bugs. It tried to turn on for a moment, but it must have turned off after checking the age.’
