Chapter 37 – 37. Academy Strategy (4)
“Busy, busy.”
Findeneye clucks next to me and places the ax on his shoulder. Although he was grumbling, the corners of his mouth were drawn into an arc.
At first, I thought he liked the axe, but when I heard him say it, it wasn’t just that.
“Souls go away easier than you think?”
“… … “They didn’t wake up because they wanted to.”
Findeneye stopped walking at my words and slowly turned her head, her big blood red eyes looking at me curiously.
“What are you talking about?”
“If they woke up because they really wanted to, if they had something to wish for, it wouldn’t have ended this easily.”
“… … “Please explain in an easy-to-understand way.”
Findeneye gets irritated for no reason. There was no need to explain everything to her, but she happened to have a bit of a distance to go, so to gather her thoughts, she headed in front of her and continued her speech.
“When I was at the academy for the first three months, I had many questions as I relieved the grudges of the souls and kept the evil spirits in check.”
“hmm.”
“The biggest question among them was that the evil spirits that should have been asleep were awakened and had too much power.”
It wasn’t enough to take a person’s life, but it was enough to intervene in reality.
This did not just apply to the residents of Setima, but also to the evil spirits filled with malice and hostility in the Academy.
Here, Findeneye makes a strange expression.
“Isn’t that possible? “They could just be evil spirits with strong resentment.”
Although such categories are extremely rare, they do exist.
For example, the case of the widowed woman I met in the carriage on the way to Lovern was a very rare case in which her resentment was so deep that it could cause harm to the living.
Of course, that was largely due to the momentary amplification of resentment caused by the projection of the pregnant Illuania onto himself.
anyway.
“That can never happen.”
“You can’t do that?”
“Okay, I can’t explain this to you in detail, but I’m sure.”
Because it wasn’t like this in the original game. Even if there was an episode of the Academy’s ghost story, it was a side note and not very important.
But looking at the current situation, it has already gone too far. It was not a side issue, but a crisis at the level of the main episode.
“Hmm, it’s not like the owner came over?”
Findenai started to guess, but I shook my head.
“At the time, I was a half-baby who couldn’t even properly learn necromancy. “If I had come, it wouldn’t have had any effect on the souls.”
Finden Eye tilted his head and thought about it, trying to find his own answer, but in the end, he declared surrender.
“You’re not asking me to find the culprit right now, are you? According to what the owner said, there is a dark side that awakened the soul of the academy and gave power to the evil spirit.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
A girl with black hair.
So, the angel of Setima just woke up and received strength through that darkness.
There’s no way she could accomplish something on her own.
In the end, she too was just a thought form created by the wishes of the Setima people.
You can think of it as being the same as the human bone bug.
Like Maalx, who created the fabled monster, the human bone bug, from countless blood and corpses.
The identity of the girl called Angel was created through the gathering and gathering of the wishes of the people of Setima.
And there is a being who granted power to such an angel.
“You’re telling me this because you found out who it is?”
Finden Eye, confidently letting go of his thoughts, grins. Yes, it suits her best to swing her ax rather than toss her head in her shy manner.
“Okay, I figured it out.”
Originally, I didn’t know until I arrived in Lovern.
Because the incident itself has already deviated from common sense.
But I figured it out.
To be exact, the culprit showed himself to me.
“But I don’t have time to discuss that now. “We should first solve the case and then hear the reason.”
“okay.”
The place we arrived was the women’s dormitory. As I climbed the stairs and reached the second floor, there was a large man in the center of the hallway with his head split in half, waving his hands in the air.
[Come on]
It looks as if it is hugging people.
The moment Findeneye sees him, he immediately frowns.
“The second floor of the girls’ dormitory is where all the kids are in a coma, right?”
“That man is the main culprit who put you in a coma.”
“Hmm, is that some kind of evil spirit?”
He was a bit of a pitiful person. Although the intention was not that way, in the end it was no different from an evil act.
“It was a man who ran an orphanage in Setima. “He will be the same as he was when he hugged his children and tried to protect them until just before he died.”
It was like the warrior I was holding in my hands.
Just as the warrior lost his mind and tried to protect the central entrance on the first floor, that spirit also thought it was protecting itself, but in reality it was trapping the students in a dream.
“I’ve been carrying the burden for so long that I’ve become too absorbed in it.”
Even if you gently push the sword forward, the sword strike does not come out. The warrior was trembling with his sword and did not want to harm him.
He wanted me to know that that man had no malicious intent.
“It’s a different story from the kids in the gym. “Whatever the intention was, it was an evil spirit that caused so many female students to fall into a coma.”
[…] … .]
“If you won’t do it, I will do it.”
When the mana is drawn into the hand and the blue flame is coiled, the warrior fires a sword strike and cuts down the evil spirit.

[Come on]
The shattered soul falls fluttering to the floor. Standing in front of him, I calmly stretched out my hand.
“Let the kids go.”
[Wolf… … .]
“It’s okay to fall asleep. “I will take your place.”
Then the soul becomes a group of light and disappears. He, like the others, entered into rest.
There was pounding in some rooms and the sounds of children falling out of bed.
You’ve probably just woken up from a never-ending dream, so it’ll take some time to come to your senses.
“Findenai, take the kids outside and join the rest of the group. “There are probably children who cannot move with their own legs.”
“What are you going to do, owner?”
“Now all urgent fires have been extinguished.”
Strength goes into the hand holding the sword. Most of the incidents that existed before the barrier was created have been resolved.
If time dragged on like it is now, it could be really dangerous.
“Now I go to resolve the barrier.”
“… … “Are you okay by yourself?”
I glanced back at Findenai to see if she was worried about me, and she responded by taking out a cigar from her arms and putting it in her mouth.
“The first payday is in a week.”
“Heh.”
Good luck!
The tobacco that Findeneye holds in her mouth burns in the flame I created.
She hurriedly opens her mouth, stomps her foot, turns off the light, and glares at me.
“Ah! “It was a straw!”
“No smoking in front of me. “It’s been a while since I last saw you, so I guess you just forgot.”
“I’m leaving now!” Mr. A! Okay, get out of there! Even if you go and search, they won’t save you.”
Leaving behind the grumbling Findeneye, I headed back to the main academy building.
It’s been a very long night.
I needed to end it here in order to face tomorrow with a little less fatigue.
* * *
I felt that the wind on the rooftop was much stronger than before.
If I remember correctly, the last time I came up was to have a quick coffee with Erica Bright.
[I’m here?]
Just like then, this time too there was a girl waiting for me on the rooftop.
[long time no see.]
The black-haired girl smiled and waved at me affectionately.
I also nod my head and calmly stand in front of her.
“Why did you go to such lengths?”
[…] … .]
“Didn’t I tell you clearly before I left? “Please wait calmly and prepare for rest.”
[okay.]
The reason I thought that the remaining residents of Setima would be able to find peace even if I left the academy was because of this child.
Because she was Setima’s wish.
[After you left, I thought about it carefully.]
A small soul pops out like a will-o’-the-wisp inside the girl who slowly raises her hand.
It soon began to grow and took on the shape of a curvaceous woman.
The woman was in the same posture as a saint known to have been crucified.
But what supported and bound her were the girl’s several hairs.
The girl’s hair entwines the woman’s bronzed, curved body like a vine.
[Is it really okay to make the residents of Setima close their eyes?]
“… … .”
[People who were murdered for no reason and died cruelly, but only cried out the name of God and hoped for salvation, not revenge.]
“… … .”
[Those people who did not even mention revenge in order to impress the goddess who did not help them until their death.]
“… … .”
[No matter how tortured they were, they shed tears and asked God to forgive the kingdom’s army.]
The girl’s hair gradually begins to grow longer. Her ferocious appearance makes the sword she holds tremble.
[Maybe I was just ignorant?]
“Even if that were true, it was already over.”
[…] … In the end, you were always like that.]
As if she was angry that she wasn’t taking her side, the girl’s hair began to wriggle and tighten the ground so hard that the floor began to crack.
[You have always acted by prioritizing the living.]
“… … .”
[Hearing our voices, being able to see ourselves, talking and being with us! Why don’t you understand us!]
I can feel her fierce hostility trying to push me away through cries that border on struggle.
[Even if not everyone in the world understands our vengeful spirits, shouldn’t you at least be on our side?]
“There is something called natural order in everything.”
I answered, raising my hand to fight off her hostility.
“I have fought for you.”
There was also a time when he protected Setima’s vengeful spirits who were being harassed by other evil spirits.
“I have listened to your story.”
Originally, there were more vengeful spirits of Setima than this, but I let them all sleep in peace one by one for three months before I was dismissed.
“I sympathized deeply with you.”
Dead people often looked like they did at the time of death.
The reason why Setima’s ghosts looked so bizarre on the outside was that they suffered that much right before they died.
“But since I truly sympathize with you, I have no choice but to clearly draw a line.”
[…] … !]
Blue flames of will rise up around me.
I couldn’t leave yet, and the responsible spirits of Setima were there to help me.
“Even though it sounds cruel, there is nothing we can do about it. The dead must remain dead. Do not cross the boundaries of the living.”
[you… … !]
“The people of Setima were foolish? They didn’t cry out for revenge because they were ignorant? Yes, that could happen.”
In fact, most people will probably only feel foolish when they see it.
Who on earth can bless someone who has harmed them?
but.
“Even so, it doesn’t mean we can decide whether it’s right or wrong.”
[…] … Do not be ridiculous.]
“I don’t judge. “I just listen to what the spirits want.”
[Don’t talk nonsense!]
“Setima’s wish called happiness has finally come to this point. “You are the one who created this division by twisting, twisting, and distorting it.”
girl.
So, if we were to be specific, there was only one reason why that thought body named angel moved.
For the nameless girl’s wish for the people of Setima to be happy.
However, that thought form called Angel wishes to be happy.
Forcibly twisted and twisted.
In order to be happy, you have to suffer the same amount of pain.
In order to protect them, they must show their power to the academy.
It was so sad.
If I had been with him, the angel wouldn’t have been so damaged.
It’s a pity because we have been working together for Setima’s vengeful spirits for a while.
“Now you are a demon.”
I walked towards her with my fists clenched.
“So let me exorcise you.”
