*****On the road near the outer wall of the Magic Academy in the capital of Theocracy****
At around 7 o'clock in the morning on the new day, after the fierce conflict between the paradise forces and the Theocracy outside the city late last night, Ifrutte, who was hiding at the scene with a magic tool and conducting a live broadcast, switched the screen to the house. Here, Zhang Youji saw him passing by.
He was walking on the way to the academy at the moment. Looking at the people on the road now and on the way home yesterday, the atmosphere and behavior were completely different. Zhang Youji couldn't help but think about some things last night, and he felt deeply. , Hinghua, who was still responsible for guarding him, and Qing and her six fellow wishing fairies, talked about some topics.
[Well, I didn’t sleep last night. Although I felt like I didn’t have enough sleep, I felt that I was fine. Sure enough, it was because I used the drone-like thing I got from Lian Meng to watch her last night. The chaotic scene in the city one night, and what caused the commotion between the beautiful skeleton and that silly fish? By the time I noticed it, it was already school time. 】
[Master, your current race is a spiritual body. Even if you mimic your race, you don’t need sleep. You may feel that way just because of your habits as a human. 】
[Probably, forget it, let’s put this aside for now. Although the city is not full of potholes now, the places hit by yesterday’s stray bullets are really excessive. It’s not bad to turn them into ruins. Some places have directly turned into 1 It’s a big pit with nothing inside but dirt. I stopped counting when the number of victims exceeded 100. Why don’t we say that the Theocracy doesn’t have any means of defense? 】
[Master, I remember hearing from Moni that the capital of the Theocracy has a barrier magic tool that can wrap around the entire city. However, there seemed to be no trace of activation last night. 】
【Why? Is there such a thing? Then why didn't it start? If it is activated, even if it cannot be completely prevented, it can still reduce the damage, right? 】
Looking at the streets that are completely different from before, although the chaos has passed, there is still an atmosphere of uneasiness and panic everywhere, and I think back to last night, the retreat of the paradise forces using Kraken as a shield, and some subtle things that happened after that. , after Zhang Youji expressed his feelings a little listlessly, he chatted with Binghua about the follow-up to last night, and waited for Binghua's reply.
[Master, that’s probably because it’s not worth it. 】
【? not worth it? what happened? 】
[When that magic tool is activated, it seems that the magic stones will be consumed according to the strength of the attack, and it is a battle with the Paradise forces. In other words, there will be two choices: consuming an extremely large amount of the highest level magic stones, and ignoring the victim. , The Theocracy chose the latter. 】
[Wow, that is to say, between human life and money, the Theocracy chose money. This is a bit too dark. 】
When Zhang Youji heard what Binghua said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, he asked back in confusion. When he understood Binghua's subsequent explanation, Zhang Youji couldn't help being dumbfounded and continued. While walking, he looked in the direction of the Pope's Palace and said his thoughts completely dumbfounded, while Binghua Witness said some corrections.
[The master, it should be said that the Pope of the Theocracy chose money. If you listen carefully, you should be able to notice that almost all the people on the road are talking bad about the Pope. The right to use the barrier magic tool seems to be It is in the hands of the Pope Faction, and judging from the level of malice I sensed along the way, the people now have a lot of hatred for the Pope. On the contrary, the Saint Faction and Miss Amra from the Magic Academy, There were so many compliments and thanks, and it seemed like just yesterday, thanks to the quick negotiations of the Saints' faction, the Magic Academy became a refuge. 】
[This won’t trigger any rebellion, right? Seriously, what will the Theocracy become in the future? 】
[Master, you should ask Moni about this kind of thing. 】
[Oh, that's right. Forget it, the atmosphere on the road is heavy enough now. Let's put aside the troublesome things. Now go to the classroom to see if those guys are okay. 】
[Since the Magic Academy has become a refuge, your classmates should be fine. However, Master, having said this, I suddenly became concerned about the contents of those rumors. 】
After Zhang Youji explained some of the things that Binghua corrected, he couldn't help but worry about his future life because of the content. Although Binghua's somewhat helpless reaction made Zhang Youji temporarily give up and continue to worry about this. However, because of Binghua's subsequent words, Zhang Youji had a bad premonition and continued to ask questions.
[Just in case I’m asking, what do you care about? 】
[Master, because we have to protect the magic academy, Moni will ask us, the family members who are the guardians in the academy, to follow the rules of the academy and the regulations in your student handbook, even if we can't all Write down and memorize the general content. One of the items contains the general meaning that in times of emergency, the Magic Academy will be open to the public without restrictions and can be used as a refuge for the public. The teachers and students of the Magic Academy, We must try our best to protect the public and cooperate with the instructions of the academy. 】
【Well? In other words, the opening of the school as a refuge has nothing to do with the Saint Sect? 】
[I don’t know, but what is certain is that Miss Amra will be involved in some incidents whether intentionally or unintentionally. 】
[It seems that no matter what, I can’t be stable these days. 】
After Binghua asked Zhang Youji's question and said what she was concerned about, Zhang Youji was stunned for a moment and confirmed some key points. When Binghua continued to answer that she seemed to be thinking about something, he I couldn't help but cover my head that was starting to hurt, and walked towards the gate of the academy, a little faster.
*****In the magic academy in the capital of Theocracy, on the 4th floor of the C-class school building, in the special classroom No. 21****
Zhang Youji, who walked all the way to his classroom, recalled that what he saw on the way was completely different from yesterday. Although there were still traces of the school festival and the crowds were huge, the atmosphere was mostly filled with uneasiness and panic.
Because there were people who had evacuated who had not left the school, the personnel were very chaotic, and the overall environment was even more chaotic. This made Zhang Youji open the classroom door with some subtle and complicated emotions. We walked into the classroom that had been turned into a maid cafe.
【Well? Cuiyin? Why are you here? Come and help Cuiyuan’s school festival? Or are you here to be a maid? By the way, there are so few people today. Where has everyone gone? 】
[Zhang Youji, it’s been a while, I haven’t seen you for a while. You really haven’t changed. Even after what happened last night, you can still live a normal life without thinking about anything. 】
[I’m not Lian Meng who stayed up late last night and still slept without thinking about anything. I can still be more or less aware of the surrounding situation. By the way, where did Cuiyuan go? Since you are here, Cuiyuan must also be in the academy, right? 】
[Xiao Yuan went to the place where the summoned beast was stored to get his summoned beast. After all, this is the situation. Rather than risking something and going to get it, it is better to get it back now. 】
[That's true. Then, where are the others? 】
[Instead of asking me about this, you should ask Shuangyue and Tantan. 】
When Zhang Youji walked in and looked around the classroom and found that there were only Shuangyue and Tantan, and Cuiyin who was here for some reason, he straightforwardly stated the questions in his mind and had a brief chat with Cuiyin and Cuiyin, who had not been seen for a while. After a while, because of Cuiyin's words, he turned his attention to Shuangyue and Tantan and asked questions.
[Then, Shuangyue, Tantan, where did everyone go? 】
[Well, Teacher Xiang is going to attend a teachers' meeting, and Tierousi is still busy with some evacuation work. Although Tika and Tima came to the academy with their parents to evacuate last night, in the morning they were worried about the store, so they After making sure there was no danger for the time being, we went back. 】
[While the remaining Witte and Xingmang have not come to the academy yet, Harut and Parala, like Tika and Tima, came to the academy to take refuge with their parents last night, and after confirming their safety , and left like that, although I don’t know whether the two people went home with their parents or went straight to the very strange store I mentioned yesterday. 】
[Those two chuunibyou, I still want to go shopping at this time, but as for whether there is any danger, it really shouldn’t be dangerous for the time being, huh? 】
When hearing Zhang Youji's question, Shuangyue sighed with trouble and gave the answer to the question. Tantan then made some additions, which made Zhang Youji start to complain in a subtle way, but just then While he was speaking, the classroom door was suddenly pushed open loudly.
[Lord Zhang Youji, you should be here, right? ! 】
【Why? Um, are you there? Xiang, what's wrong? Are you in such a panic? Didn't you go to some meeting? 】
[This is over for now, but there will be other meetings soon. Please go to the principal's room as soon as possible. The principal has something urgent to ask you. There is also Tantan, can you come over and help me? Some places are in desperate need of manpower. 】
[Okay, leave it to me. 】
When Xiang, who felt very anxious, came in while shouting, Zhang Youji immediately subconsciously replied because of her busy feeling, and Xiang's reaction was to tell her what she should convey. After Tantan got permission, he took Tantan out. As for Zhang Youji, who was left behind, he was full of trouble and started talking to himself.
[Although I predicted that Amra would definitely be involved in something, is it necessary to involve me too? 】
[Maybe the principal is just looking for something to do with you, rather than trying to get you involved in her affairs. Anyway, you should go and take a look first. 】
[The location I remember is inside the S-class school building. Oh, forget it, I feel like I'm in a hurry, so it doesn't matter if I go and take a look. But if it's troublesome, I will definitely turn around and run away. 】
【【·······． 】】
After Zaixiang left with Tantan, Cuiyin tried to urge Zhang Youji because of what he said while covering his head. As for Zhang Youji’s reaction, he didn’t want to get into trouble. After responding appropriately, he took With Binghua and Qing following him, under the cold gazes of Cuiyin and Shuangyue, they left the classroom with a sigh and began to go to where Amra was.
