The Hero From Yagem Is Discriminated Against

10. Cyber Revolution

** 10. Cyber Revolution

Misunderstanding is like a raging fire.

Especially the part where I often broaden my territory if I don’t suppress it early.

I wonder how many misunderstandings I’ve created today, I grabbed the confused Sui and said it wasn’t like that, almost as if urging her, and she managed to nod her head.

With this, the flames of doubt were safely extinguished.

I believed that and quickly escaped from the professor’s office, leaving behind Lisbeth, who was desperately looking for help.

I still don’t know what happened in the professor’s office after that.

**

Sometimes after school.

When I went to the classroom where all the students had left, there was In-yeong waiting for me. Winds, who was holding her desk as if he was bored, saw me and came running after a month.

“Alem! Where have you been?”

“Wait, I’m in the professor’s office.”

“Professor’s office? Lisbeth sister?”

“Yes, they said they wanted to hear my opinion about the student education process.”

“Hey, what are you doing? A fairly cheeky freshman?”

“The professor called me… “

Winds and I somehow happened to share our daily lives.

Come to think of it, I haven’t asked yet. What kind of change of heart did he go through and be so good to me?

Rumors are spreading here and there that the fortress vigilante is going to meet Eros’ freshman, but the one picture that Id and Cynthia caught this morning may not be the problem.

“So you know… “

She thought as she looked at Winds, who chattered happily, walking a little further than what could be called the normal range of friends.

Maybe I’m trying to raise my prestige, which has fallen to the bottom, to my own status. Even at the cost of hurting my prestige.

That’s not a completely absurd statement.

It’s not about reviving the reputation of Eros as a whole, and it’s nothing from the vigilante’s point of view if it’s only to solidify the position of one student.

“And what happened then….. Hey, you’re not listening to me.”

“Surprisingly, I was listening.”

“I said something, tell me!”

“Didn’t you say you’re going to go to the dessert shop and cook everything?”

“What? Look at this, you’re just making up words. When did I… No, but is that okay?”

Yes, even if you are trying to help me in that way, there is no reason not to respond.

“Then let’s go.”

“Okay!”

Winds, who had been leading the way excitedly, suddenly saw someone and stood tall.

“Hmm? Macia?”

“Ah, Mr Winds… “

I don’t know what kind of business this building has, but if it’s normal, there won’t be any number of feet in a completely different building.

Machia turned her gaze to me.

“I-I have something to say to Alem… “

Then, as I looked at Wins and I, Wins, noticing her strange atmosphere, smiled and walked past Makia.

“Yes, feel free to talk comfortably~”

Finally, Winds coolly walked away, and Makia approached me hesitantly.

Looks like you have something important to say.

“Senior, what’s going on?”

“Ah, that… “

Makia’s complexion, seen up close, was somehow not good.

Originally, she was on the pale side because she didn’t see sunlight, but it’s more serious now that even the blood is gone.

“I was talking to the undergraduates today, and a certain hero said that… That day, she knows about Alem’s surgery… ”

I narrowed my eyes and recalled that day.

I can’t remember much since I lost my mind after the first intense pain I experienced in my life. When he regained his consciousness, he looked down at his disfigured body in amazement.

“Yes, that day.”

“Yes, that day… The strange story that the earth stone transplanted to Alem drastically shortens the lifespan of the transplanter… Someone did… “

My body stiffened at those words.

I never thought someone would notice this. If it was even rumored, it would have been a headache.

However, there were many obstacles to blindly reassuring Makia. If she told the director that she had obtained the right to ascend at any time, that would incur unprecedented wrath from Academia. What is left of what I can do?

Can’t give any reason and just say it’s okay, or it’s just that the premise that the stone of the earth eats life is wrong.

However, too much time has passed.

“…..”

Because she couldn’t move her mouth from rolling her hair for a while, Makia’s expression collapsed after watching it carefully.

Trembling and crying came through her voice.

“Gee, are you serious? Alem? Are you really going to die? Soon?”

“Please calm down.”

“Ah, no way to calm down!”

Makia came closer and grabbed my collar violently.

I’m not leaving right away, so why are you doing this? But when I shake off her hand, I see her hand shaking.

The fact that I was in good health right away and had been forced to turn away from it because I had a lot of work.

And you don’t have to worry anymore.

It is a confusion that can be put to rest by simply taking off the gloves and showing the stigma that has obtained ‘authority’. And I was sure that Makia would keep her great secret about me.

But, nonetheless.

“…..Calm down, it’s okay.”

I couldn’t do that in the end.

If it is revealed that he received such authority from the chairman in any way, that alone will be condemned by the whole world.

It was more dangerous in my opinion to bring Makia there.

I’d rather be misunderstood for a moment like this, find a chance to solve it someday, and now it’s best to get over it.

It would be appropriate to end it like this.

“It’s okay. The chairman and Orien both said they would help in any way, so you don’t have to worry.”

“…..”

Makia didn’t look completely convinced, but when I repeatedly told her that she was fine, she couldn’t help but feel like she was falling.

But I have something to say.

This time I approached Makia.

“Senpai, don’t talk about this anywhere.”

“But already among undergraduates… “

“I’ll ask for that too. At least right now, I hope it’s not known. There is definitely a solution, but it’s too early to talk about it yet.”

After saying that and laughing bitterly, Makia looked up at me with her confused eyes and tried to understand the truth of her words.

But she is not Orien. She has no ability to grasp the truth of the other person. It was just a question of how far you could trust me.

In that way, there was one person to share the uncomfortable truth with.

Professor Lisbeth couldn’t open her cafe due to her personal circumstances.

I don’t know what happened, but I’m really sorry, and eventually Winds and I found another dessert cafe.

I wasn’t planning to do this originally, but somehow I aroused Wins’ appetite for sweetness.

As a reward for starting the fire, I had to shove overly sweet ice chips into my mouth.

“hehehe, isn’t it delicious?”

“Yes… “

We found a quiet spot and each looked at our smartphones.

Considering that it was still a prototype, new technologies were constantly being updated in real time. At first, it was downloaded in ticks, but I was tired of that, so I waited for a while and then downloaded it all at once.

In the meantime, another mysterious update has been made.

Winds looked at the screen in admiration.

“Wow, something like this came up. What are you reading… Patch notes… ?”

I was also looking at the same phrase as Wins.

[Middle Dimension Academia Patch Notes ver 0.9]

[Nice to meet you, warriors of Academia!]

[All news from the Cyberpunk Technical Bureau will be integrated and managed by this patch note application, so please refer to this!]

[The current version is 0.9, And we will inform you that it will start with 1.0 As soon as it is officially released.]

[The Academia Patch Notes will be a newspaper that covers all the big and small events within Academia, and will be reborn as a platform where you can get any information through discussions with professors.]

[Thank you very much.]

[PS: What are the patch notes? For gamers like us, this is right!]

So far, there were only phrases like that, but unlike other updates, each phrase was filled with affection and sincerity, so it seemed that something to be expected in the future was released.

Winds seemed to feel the same way.

“Sapeng guys are really sincere… “

I don’t know what it is, but it seems certain that there is a lot of excitement.

I couldn’t even imagine how much I had suffered in the past years because of the director’s refusal to approve technology development.

A fish in water will be less than that.

On the other hand, I felt something when I saw that Academia was so noisy.

I’m not sure, but I seemed to know roughly what the chairman was aiming for. There are two main things I have figured out.

The first is to cover up the fear of the bloom crisis with a hot topic.

It is said that the size of fear is directly related to their strength, so it is virtually certain. However, this is just an additional factor, and what the chairman really wants is probably…

It was a suspicion that he was making the final stage for a war with his peers.
