Chapter 33 – The Freshman Didn’t Hide the Slave (3)

I left in front of the crowded bulletin board, promising to show Carla, who had been in great demand over the past few days, someday.

This and that happened with Elisha, but she confirmed she was assigned to class A anyway, so she has to go to class.

“Carla.”

“Your master.”

“Do you know the way?”

“If it’s the way to Class 1 A, of course I know. Shall we explain the academy on the way?”

“That’s fine.”

Carla walked forward without even paying attention to the sign posted in a conspicuous place or the servants hanging around in case the freshmen got lost.

After following Karla and going a little deeper, an open square appeared.

“Her….”

The plaza made in the form of a huge circle was wider than ever imagined, and there were just as many people walking around on it.

And the statue of a pretty young man with a sword standing in the center and the four spiers behind it.

Oh my gosh.

I never thought I would actually see this sight.

While playing H&A, I was tired of watching over the monitor… It’s a different feeling to actually see it like this.

It was also a while to stop and stare blankly at the scenery in front of me.

I thought I had enough of it, so Carla opened her mouth in a quiet voice.

“This is the central square, sir. This place is connected to all the facilities of the academy, so I will be passing by often in the future.”

Know. I always went through this whenever I moved to a region in the game.

I asked several times if it was possible to add a teleportation function on the map, but they never added it like a tutorial skip function.

“The statue you see over there is that of Rahim, the first warrior who ended the war of the gods and established a peaceful world.”

“It’s a peaceful world….”

Exactly. Rahim is not a great person.

No matter how reliable he was with the help of his colleagues and good gods, Rahim succeeded in sealing all the evil gods and the cause of their corruption with a human body.

But it wasn’t perfect.

There were still cults and dungeons left in the world, and the seal was a structure that had no choice but to be broken someday.

This world is a world that is kept under seal, and it is a world that has only slightly postponed its destruction.

In such a situation, become a new hero to succeed Rahim and completely annihilate all the evil gods this time.

That’s the player’s job as a hero in the world of Heroes & Academy…… Now that’s what I have to do too.

“… Master? Why? Any problem?”

“No. It just made me think that I had really entered the academy.”

Unlike the past three years, when the goal was to survive alone, from now on, I have to put my head into dangerous work.

It came on quite heavy.

But Karla, whether or not he knew how I felt, cheered me on by clenching his fists in front of his soft chest.

“Come to think of it, the master was incapable of responding to mana. It’s okay. Isn’t it now? I’m by your side, so I’m sure you’ll do well at the academy!”

Could it be that he thought I was worried about my academy life?

Looking at those bright ruby-colored eyes, a smile naturally flows out.

“I really… Done Now explain that tower.”

“Oh! Look at my mind That’s the most important building, sir. It is the department building that can be said to be the center of this academy.”

“From the left, the Knights Division, the Magic Division, the Sacred Division, and the Crafting Division, right?”

“Hup! How did you know, Master?”

I can’t say that I’ve seen the ending several times for each occupational group in the game, so I replied with a moderate shrug.

“It’s all written in the brochure.”

“Ah….”

Is it because I missed the opportunity to explain? Carla is visibly disappointed.

Then, he lightly patted her butt.

Slap.

“Hey!”

“I just know what kind of tower it is. So please explain to me as you go.”

Carla, who was caressing her own butt, pondered her words for a moment, then nodded her head with a clear expression.

“Yes! Then, first of all, let’s talk about the Faculty of Magic and the Faculty of Production, especially the Alchemy Department, where Master belongs….”

Together with Karla, who was constantly chattering, we headed to the Faculty of Magic through the central plaza.

***

Belt ring.

[With excellent grades, I was safely assigned to the upper class of the Faculty of Magic.]

【Fulfill your special experience!】

【You have acquired the new title “Talented Freshman”.】

“Five.”

Following Karla’s guidance, we arrived at Class A’s classroom. The moment I took a step inside, a notification popped up and filled my field of vision.

This is one of the reasons why I tried to be assigned to a higher class if possible.

======================

【Title: Talented Freshman】

You are one of the top geniuses in the academy, where all the geniuses of the continent of Eurelia are gathered.

However, not everyone rises to a high level just because they are geniuses. Don’t be arrogant and try harder.

You are not a hero yet.

– 20% increase in stat growth for 1 month.

-Increases skill proficiency by 20% for 1 month.

-Increases attention in the academy.

======================

Kya!

It’s limited to one month, but how can you put up with the 20% growth buff?

Even though this is just the beginning, there are still plenty of advantages of being assigned to the top class.

Titles must be equipped to exert their full effect, and if you only have them, you can only exert half the effect, so I quickly manipulated the status window to change the title.

In the meantime, I looked at the title of a stranger who had lost his way.

======================

【Title: The Lost Stranger】

Do you know where you came from and where you are going? You don’t know?

Oops.

Come on, find your way.

-Increases walking movement speed by 2%

======================

Yes. It’s garbage. Bye bye.

When I changed the title without hesitation, I laughed without my knowledge.

“Heh….”

But, did it seem strange that he suddenly stopped and giggled? Carla poked me in the side.

“Master… ? Why are you suddenly like that?”

“Never mind. Let’s go in now. … Oh Kara, what will you do?”

“Without me, who will guide the master? I’ll be waiting for you here.”

Since the academy officially recognizes the attendant, there are quite a few students who bring an attendant to the classroom.

So, there is a school rule that requires the attendant to sit in a chair at the back of the classroom and wait for the class to end.

Of course, attendants cannot participate in this class. However, since my ears are open, it is possible to attend classes.

Normally, there would be no meaning in having an attendant attend classes, but… It is said that sometimes talented people realize their abilities only by listening to lectures.

In this case, it is a kind of custom and virtue for the academy to specially enter the attendant, and for the owner to support such an attendant.

Of course, the servant must be loyal to the master who gave him a chance for the rest of his life.

… Well, since Karla is a slave, that’s impossible.

If an attendant is a person hired by someone, a slave is not a person in the first place.

She looked at Karla’s back with a confused mind, then looked around her for a place to sit.

She had seen through the monitor. She was sitting sparsely with people she had never seen before and familiar people.

The ones I don’t know are probably those who were implemented as extras.

However, among them, there was one that stood out even more.

Did you already create a faction, or did you know it from before?

The blue-haired elf is the only one surrounded by other people.

Elisha, who was chatting lightly with the people around her, briefly met her gaze.

Nod

After pretending to know each other with a light nod, they found a suitable seat.

Class A is a bit fun. It’s an upper class, so the facilities are good and the classrooms are spacious, but it’s an upper class, so there aren’t many people.

It is said that there are not enough seats left.

Waiting for the professor who will be coming soon, I took out a magic book recommended by Karla from my inventory.

Simple formulas and images to bypass the law of increasing limiting magic power consumption. And my extremely personal mind management method.’

I want the title to be this long, but I can’t help it. Most magic books are like this.

According to Karla, the more magic is used, the more imagination and willpower are depleted, and in order to compensate for this, it contains information to suppress the frightening increase in magical power consumption with formulas and intuition….

It’s not very important to me who is going to calibrate the system.

If you decide to just use it, you can reliably extract magic without consuming much mental power.

Of course, someday I will have to understand the principle of correction with my head. But that’s not the case now.

Nonetheless, there is no reason why I took out this book. It’s just a small staging for what’s about to happen.

Not long after, the students around me growled in a small voice.

Did it start

As I pretended not to know anything and pretended to read a book, the noise around me grew louder and louder.

“Why is that attendant kneeling on the floor and leaving a chair in good condition? Could it be that the owner ordered it?”

“No matter how much you are a servant, this is a bit….”

“Idiot. Look at the nape You’re not an ordinary servant, you’re a slave. … It’s a face you’ve seen more than anywhere else.”

“Carla Lindelheit! I’ve seen you at a social church before! Are you sure! Miss Carla Lindelheit! I heard that the Lindelheit family collapsed on charges of cult and became slaves… It was real.”

“For a moment. So, did she buy someone who was a student at the academy as a slave and bring her to the academy? Even publicly shamed like this?”

“… I saw I must have entered the classroom with that person.”

At the end of someone’s words, all eyes are on me. At this point, I pretended to feel something out of place and took my eyes off the book.

He looked around with a puzzled expression at the cold stares around him.

Lastly, with a feeling of dread, I glanced at Elisha’s place.

It’s as if he’s looking at Elisha’s eyes.

As if following this, the eyes that were focused on me shifted to Elisha.

“…… !”

Elisha’s light blue eyes shook mercilessly.
