Admission is a waste of time (136)
Lesson 28. Flower Play of Destruction – 3
It was quite an enjoyable and novel experience to experience first-hand the spaceship traveling through the dimensional wall.
Outside the window, a bright blue, sparkling Milky Way-like landscape spread out before them, and occasionally they could see a spaceship moving alongside them.
Ban Yu-won just stared at the scene with his mouth open like a kid visiting a movie theater for the first time.
It was such a spectacular sight that it made me understand why they installed such a huge window on the spaceship to see the front.
“Does that spaceship over there look close?”
Yumi-na, who had been looking at the cup ramen that Ban Yu-won had taken out and turning it over and over to commemorate the special day where she had had a novel experience, finally succeeded in opening the lid of the cup ramen and spoke to him with a refreshed expression.
“In reality, they are very far apart. It’s best not to think of the scenery you see inside the dimensional wall as real. That’s because the traces of magical power left behind by those who entered the dimensional wall remain like afterimages.”
“… … I just saw a naked man floating in the air.”
“There are also strong individuals who can withstand the density of dimensional walls and wander the universe alone. However, since the distance between them is not close, and even the time zones can be different, they may be beings from the past.”
That’s a total space version of the Barbarian.
Even beings that are not afraid of being seen by an unspecified number of people in the future, and boldly shed their skin and wander through dimensional walls.
Feeling his romanticism about space cooling off slightly, Ban Yu-won took his gaze away from the window and finally decided to make his own portion of ramen.
“two?”
“Yeah. I’m going to mix it up. Eating Gan-gong-chams in space is also a delicacy. Two letters overlap.”
“What’s that name that sounds so strong?”
When Ban Yu-won, who had only given each party member a cup of ramen, took out two cups of ramen for himself, Dokgo Yeon asked with an interested expression.
She likes spicy food quite a bit, although not as much as she likes sweet food, and among the cup ramen that Ban Yoo-won just took out, there was one with a red packaging that looked spicy, so she was interested.
“It’s a stir-fried jjambbong ramen mixed with jjajang ramen and topped with tuna and canned ham.”
“Is that a diet plan for people who need to gain weight in a short period of time for a special reason?”
“You make fun of the potential of growing teenagers.”
Of course, Ban Yu-won doesn’t plan on eating it all by himself.
Aren’t there four more mouths here?
Ban Yu-won opened the lid of the two cups of ramen and poured in the boiled water. He felt that not only Dokgo Yeon but also others were looking at him with curiosity, so he ended up grinning.
“Let’s all share it.”
“Good. I guess they’re taking pictures of this too.”
“I thought this was a good opportunity to let the world and all levels know that Jjapaguri isn’t the only Korean mixed ramen recipe.”
“What is Jjapaguri?”
“I guess we have to start from there, sorry. I’ll buy it from Earth and make it for you later.”
While the noodles are cooking, open a can of tuna and drain the oil, leaving only the tuna meat. Also open a can of ham and cut it into appropriate pieces.
While doing that small task, Ban Yu-won reminisced about the old days.
When I made this at home, I used to share it with my sister.
… … No, to be exact, I used to joke with Ban Yu-won, who would always eat more and tremble, asking if he should have boiled it one more time.
As I couldn’t see that pig, no, my enemy, no, my older sister, I started to miss them more and more, and I thought that it was a truly terrifying thing to grow distant.
“Oh, are the noodles cooked?”
Ban Yoo-won felt the convenience of his ability as he appropriately extracted the concept of water from the cup ramen and simply left only the noodles.
How annoying it used to be to pour out the water from cup ramen! Now that it can be solved with just a wave of your hand!
“Could it be that my skills are also overwhelmingly well suited to cooking?”
“Are you calling that series of actions ‘cooking’ right now, Ban?”
Ban Yoo-won ignored Light’s tackle and gathered the noodles into a plate, topped them with tuna and ham, then poured all the sauce over them and stirred.
Although I usually eat well at Union Academy, the smell of instant noodles along with the seaweed made me hungry all of a sudden.
“Let’s all eat.”
“A sweet and spicy scent is rising. Then where… … .”
When you take a bite, you will feel the spicy yet sweet flavor unique to Jjajang.
Enjoy the chewy noodles, and when it starts to feel a little monotonous, there’s the ensemble of tuna and ham that are chewed wholesomely.
In fact, it’s just oily rather than harmonious, but that’s what makes it good.
“Me, me too.”
“I feel bad about only taking Yuwon’s food, so I’ll share it with you.”
Because the ramen was mixed in and the spiciness was appropriately neutralized, even Light and Ruchel, who don’t eat spicy food well, enjoyed it.
Meanwhile, Yumi-na, who had been unable to interfere to maintain her dignity, opened her eyes wide in surprise after tasting the food that Ban Yu-won personally picked up with his chopsticks.
“Did you guys share this delicious food every time you entered the tower?”
It seems that he was greatly shocked by Earth’s instant food.
If you look around the Union, you can see that while food culture has developed in a very diverse way, strangely, instant foods are focused on preserved foods with a clear purpose, such as combat rations.
Things like cookies and cakes are superior to Earth, but there aren’t many sweets that can be stored for a long time…
“No, because the quantity is small, I don’t eat it often even in the tower these days.”
“When you return to Earth during the holidays, please be sure to buy a lot of them.”
Dokgo Yeon, who was savoring his ramen, heard that and made a request to him.
“While you’re at it, could you please also bring me some spices to add some spiciness to the food?”
“You have a subspace now, Dokgoyeon. Bring it from your hometown.”
Ban Yu-won said, pointing to the pretty jewel bracelet dangling from Dokgo Yeon’s left wrist.
The bracelet, which was equipped with short-distance teleportation and subspace abilities, was shown to Yumina and underwent strict inspection to prevent the immobile controller from interfering with it.
Dokgo Yeon responded to Ban Yu-won’s words with a laugh.
“This subspace is too big to even store one mountain giant.”
“Mountain Giant? That’s a name that’s as it is… … .”
As I was having a pleasant conversation with the members and finishing all the ramen, a slight vibration began to run through the spaceship.
“Ah, we’ve reached the exit coordinates.”
As soon as Yumina whispered, the window was filled with a blue, flickering light.

The spaceship was hit by a jolt, and in the next moment, my vision went pitch black.
It broke through the dimensional wall and popped out into space.
Just coming out of the space of light gave me a strangely calm feeling.
The sound from outside probably wasn’t audible to begin with.
“Now, do you see that faintly twinkling star over there? That’s Urahara.”
Yumina added that the stars that formed the Mana civilization can be measured by the brightness of their light when observed from outside.
“It’s very faint.”
“That means this special activity is easy! Even if a country in the other world is in danger of collapsing, a team made up of only the Academy’s freshmen will be able to resolve it somehow.”
“That would certainly be the case. In a world like that, the strongest monster would be… … an ogre?”
Ogres are giant humanoid monsters that are at least 3 meters tall, with muscles all over their bodies and are incredibly strong. They are exactly like the monsters you see in fantasy novels or games on Earth.
I saw it once during the monster wave at Banyuwondo Gelas… … but I couldn’t get close enough to measure its life.
At that time, I was convinced that I would definitely die if we fought one-on-one, but thinking back on what I experienced at the top, I didn’t think I would lose even if we fought head-on.
“Would an ogre appear…? Let’s go for now. The place we’re going to now is Papitar, the country representing Uraha.”
As the star’s shape gradually expanded into the field of vision, the spaceship began to gain speed in earnest.
The moment Ban Yu-won muttered to himself, “What? That doesn’t look like Earth,” the spaceship had already broken through Uraha’s atmosphere and was flying over Papitar.
The ground was still so far away that it didn’t feel real… … but Ban Yu-won was able to spot something dark brown moving like a swarm of ants, swarming over the vast green area.
“We should hurry. There seem to be more monsters than I thought.”
“Are you sure they’re all monsters?”
Although it was too far away to count the exact number, it was certain that it was in the hundreds of thousands.
They say quantity is power, but at this point, the rank is low and it’s not something that even an academy freshman can stop.
Yumina also responded to Ban Yuwon’s questioning gaze with bewildered eyes.
“The teacher is also confused… … Of course, it usually takes some time for special activity applications to be received and processed.”
Yumina’s hand movements while manipulating the spaceship’s instrument panel were urgent.
On the ground in the screen that quickly zooms in, an army of monsters that can only be described as enormous is running, completely pushing aside the ground.
However, compared to the monster waves we saw in previous Gelas, there was one major difference: … .
“There are only orcs?”
The monster army was made up entirely of Orcs, a warrior race with pig-headed, muscular bodies.
Even just looking at the monster wave that Rebellion had experienced in Room 39 just a little while ago, even though crustaceans were the main monsters, there were also many other monsters mixed in.
Among the monsters that came in later, there were some that looked like a cross between humans and zombies… … .
But that wasn’t the wave.
Orcs, orcs, wherever you look, there are only orcs.
It would be okay to call it an orc wave instead of a monster wave.
“Ouch, we’re in trouble.”
Yumina became lost in thought as she discovered something the group had not noticed.
“Let’s go to Papitar quickly. But if we’re not careful… … it might not be a national crisis, but a crisis of this dimension.”
“But Professor, to be honest, I expected that much.”
“Actually, I too… … at the point when the word flower viewing came up.”
“Is everyone going too far?!”
Their party got into trouble wherever they went, so now it was more unsettling to have nothing happen.
It was a situation where I was suspecting that the dimension might open at any moment and the dimensional pirates might appear, so how foolish would that be?
“Our team’s strength is not at the level of the academy’s freshmen. I won’t let the professor get involved.”
Dokgo Yeon, who had been looking at the screen that appeared on the dashboard, lightly placed his right hand on the sword holster with a dignified expression as if he had roughly figured out the level.
Perhaps it was a preparatory move to raise her fighting spirit.
If only he had wiped off the spicy seasoning on the corners of his mouth, he would have looked more manly, but he was cute as is, so he decided to leave it alone.
It was obvious that if he pointed that out directly, she would harass him.
… … That means he liked Gongongchams that much!
“Hey, Dokgoyeon? You have something on your lips.”
“… … ?!”
And the victim, as always, was Light.
Ban Yu-won fixed his gaze on the dashboard with a calm expression, as if he had never seen Dokgo Yeon in such a disheveled state from the beginning.
It was only then that I noticed something: a massive orc running at the head of the legion on the screen.
He was leading the group while shouting fiercely, carrying an unnaturally large and crude greatsword on his back, and even through the screen, I could tell that he was strong.
“… … ? The great sword, what’s wrong?”
The weapons of the other orcs were all equally vicious, but the greatsword of that giant orc looked particularly strange.
I wish I could see it for myself, but even the most semi-agnostic of people can’t see through the concept of language.
Yumina smiled bitterly at Ban Yuwon’s reaction.
“I knew that student Ban Yu-won would notice. He must be the culprit that made this wave so serious… … Where on earth did he get that?”
“One broadsword? What is that?”
“Let’s talk about that later. I’ll be there soon.”
The spaceship, which had been speeding over the heads of the madly running Orc army, gradually lowered its altitude and flew like an airplane before landing on a large X-mark drawn on the ground.
“Okay, shall we go out then?”
“What about the spaceship? Oh, I didn’t even have to ask.”
As the group all exited the spaceship, the spaceship automatically shrank to the size of the palm of one’s hand and was sucked into Yumina’s inventory.
Just five minutes ago, the ground they had passed by had been devastated by an army of orcs, but this area was a meadow in full bloom, making Banyuwon feel strangely uneasy.
Yumina said that too, let’s go as if we were going to see the flowers.
Perhaps Ban Yu-won would have thought similarly if he hadn’t seen the Orc legion earlier.
“Are you from Union Academy?”
A middle-aged woman who appeared to have been waiting nearby approached them along with the soldiers.
She was wearing a very ornate dress and a small crown on her head, so you could tell at a glance that it was an artifact.
But the really important level is… … .
The woman who was presumed to be royalty of this country, and the soldiers guarding her… … They were so weak that Ban Yu-won could guess their life expectancy the moment he saw them.
It was not a judgment made by seeing through his power, but by looking at the magical power or momentum that the opponent possessed.
“I am Queen Lyra of this country, Papitar. Thank you so much for accepting our request… … Ugh, Rebellion!”
But, the woman who had been introducing herself as she approached them shouted like that as soon as she saw Ban Yu-won’s face.
“I never thought Rebellion would come to our country! Our royal family is all fans of yours! Could you please give us an autograph?”
“Do you know us?”
“Of course, our Majesty has access to Union Net! Through the magic water mirror, all members of the royal family can see it together.”
I took out the mirror again and checked the number of subscribers to the Rebellion channel. Even though I haven’t uploaded any special videos, the number of subscribers has already surpassed 500 million.
And one of them was in this world.
When Ban Yu-won looked around at the group with a bewildered expression, everyone had similar expressions, but Yumina was the only one raising her thumb.
No, now is not the time for you to be doing that.
“That’s right, do you know the true nature of the monster wave that is currently approaching Papitar?”
“Are you talking about Orc? Actually, we received a report the day before yesterday, so we… … .”
Yumina, who finally remembered the current situation at Ban Yuwon’s wink, asked the Queen of Papitar as if she was questioning her, but she only responded as if a minor problem had arisen.
“This is not the time to just nod calmly! How on earth did the relic end up in the hands of an orc?”
Relics? Are you talking about artifacts?
While Ban Yu-won tilted his head, the queen answered stupidly, still not fully understanding the situation.
“I saw the report, but I have no idea where it came from. I think it might be a lost dimensional artifact… … Ah, but with Rebellion’s power, you should be able to defeat tens of thousands of orcs without any problems, right?”
“At least a million.”
The queen’s eyes, which had been completely blank since she saw Rebellion, widened when she heard those words.
“What did you say?”
“A million.”
“ha.”
As Yumina spoke again, emphasizing her point, the queen fainted while standing.
I wanted to faint along with Ban Yu-won, but the monster wave… no, the orc wave was coming too close!
