Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out at the entrance of RiNG.
"Saya~ You're here~"
"Wait a minute, that's not how you use advanced invisibility!" Standing at the door, Yamabuki Saya blushed and twisted her body helplessly.
So you learned advanced invisibility techniques just so you could get close to girls?!
Once Chihaya Aine's figure had completely disappeared from sight, Koshimura Sawa looked down and checked the strange pile of things in his pocket: an adventurer's identity card, a badge, and a wallet he had used for a long time. He opened the wallet, just about to put the card back in, when a card suddenly fell out of a compartment.
He bent down, picked it up, and saw that it was a neon student ID.
His photo was printed on it; he looked a bit dazed, probably taken around the time he was in junior high school.
Name: Koshimura Sawa.
School: Haneoka Magic Academy High School.
Haneoka Magic Academy.
Ok?
Ok? ? ?
Chapter Nine: Encountering the Feathered Penguin, Picking Up Stones - Strong as a Monster, Unable to Defeat It Despite All Its Efforts
"Today is a good day to climb the ranks~" Yuecun Ze hummed a little tune, slinging his handbag across his shoulder and walking briskly.
The morning sun was bright but not glaring, and a gentle breeze brought moist air from Tokyo Bay, rustling the roadside trees and green belts.
After returning to his high-rise duplex overlooking the sea and river last night, he did a thorough review of the common knowledge of this world, which basically matched what the giraffe had mentioned before.
Isn't this absurd? He actually has relatives in this world.
Although he only has a cheap mother who works away from home all year round, doesn't care about him, and then moved him to Tokyo after making money, his communication with her is limited to sending him living expenses.
But it's still better than gloriously joining the Cat Orphanage, I think.
Furthermore, Haneoka Girls' Academy has become a co-educational school.
After all, the number of professionals is already small. If gender is restricted, we might not even be able to recruit enough students each year.
Besides brushing up on his general knowledge, he also took the opportunity to learn about the history of this world.
Basically, nothing has changed, after all, the [Void] has only existed for a very short time, less than a hundred years.
Apart from some institutions and organizations that arose alongside the "Void" and professionals, everyone else continued to live normal lives, going about their business as usual.
This is quite in line with his imagination.
The rest is just upgrading-related matters.
A sorcerer can only gain one new trait at level two.
[Magic Summoning]
[Through your study of occult knowledge, you discovered methods of magical invocation; these forbidden fragments of knowledge have granted you enduring magical abilities.]
At Rank 2, you gain two chosen enchantments. You can learn additional enchantments as you attain higher Warlock ranks.
Additionally, when you level up your class, you can replace an already learned Invocation with a new one, but you must meet the prerequisites for learning the new Invocation.
What else is there to say? The answer is right there, aren't you going to choose it?
【Agonizing Blast】
[Prerequisite: Learn the Trick Spell Power Blast]
When casting Mana Burst, you can add a Charisma modifier to the damage dealt on each hit.
Devil's Sight
You have a visibility range of 120 feet in the dark, regardless of whether it is magical or non-magical darkness.
The best defense is the best offense. Warlocks are essentially magic damage dealers; they don't need many other functionalities. They just need to ensure their own offensive environment.
As for the new known spells gained when a sorcerer levels up, Koshimura naturally chose them—
【Searing Smite】
[One Ring for Energy]
[Casting Time: 1 minute, Bonus Action]
[Casting Range] Seven Two? Delete Neighbor Four Blame 々⑦ Water] His Moon "/Ripple-: Self]
[Duration: Focused, maximum 1 minute]
[Your next melee weapon attack that hits a creature during the spell's duration will cause your weapon to glow with intense heat. This attack deals an additional 1d6 fire damage to the target and ignites them. Until the spell ends, the target must make a Constitution saving throw at the start of each of their turns. A failed save inflicts 1d6 fire damage. A successful save ends the spell. If the target or another creature within 5 feet extinguishes the flames with an action, or if some other effect extinguishes the flames (e.g., the target jumps into water), the spell ends.]
[Upgraded Ring Casting Effect: When casting this spell using a second-ring or higher spell slot, the initial attack deals 1d6 more damage for each ring higher than the spell slot you use.]
One slash after another, the burning blade!
The main reason is that the core damage skill of the Cursed Sword, Magic Slash, can only be unlocked at level 5. Before that, you can only choose a slashing spell as a temporary solution.
Anyway, you get a new known spell every time you upgrade.
Turning a corner shaded by green trees, the gate bearing the words "Haneoka Magic Academy" came into view in the distance.
Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure crouching beside the bushes in the roadside green belt.
It was a girl who looked rather frail, wearing a gray blazer from Haneoka, her smooth, short gray hair hanging down due to gravity, obscuring her profile. She was squatting intently in the grass, seemingly...searching for something.
Oh my, isn't this our Yuqiu's little penguin holding a stone?
[Friendly reminder: Takamatsu Akari is not a penguin, but a normal human girl.]
Really...? Why are you telling me this...?
【A. "Gurgle, gurgle!"】
【B. "Inspiration Mushroom Li Gu Li Wa Cha Inspiration Mushroom Inspiration Mushroom~"】
[C. Pick up a rock from the roadside and throw it hard at the penguin.]
Giraffe, confess honestly, have you seen the works of my favorite artist, Sundae Bridge Ice Orchid?
Please, I'm begging you, Takamatsu Akari is just a high school girl who likes to collect stones and look at the stars, not some penguin that just quacks and cries.
【? You're rebelling against the Heavenly Generals, right?】
Yuecun Ze cleared his throat, quietly walked to her side, and sang in a voice that only he could hear:
"Inspiration mushroom, li mushroom, li wow, cha inspiration mushroom, inspiration mushroom~"
[I think this Koshimura Sawa is a genius.]
Unexpectedly, the girl still heard it. Her body trembled slightly, as if she had been startled, like a frightened little animal.
She raised her head and looked Yuecunze up and down with an extremely focused yet confused gaze, her large amber eyes filled with bewilderment.
Who is this person, and why is he suddenly singing to me?
But the melody he sang seemed very familiar, as if I had sung this song in another world...
"Hello, classmate." Koshimura Sawa squatted down beside her. "Are you picking up... uh, magic stones?"
Takamatsu blinked, then looked at him with a puzzled and worried expression, as if to ask, "Does this person even have common sense?"
“This is just an ordinary stone.” Takamatsu Akari reached out a hand and carefully put it into the pocket of her uniform. She took out a translucent stone about the size of a fingernail, milky white in color, with tiny points of light seemingly flowing slowly inside, and handed it to Koshimura Sawa.
“This… is the magic stone.” Takamatsu Tō said seriously, her brows furrowed slightly.
I'm sorry, I was wrong, Sister Deng. Could you please stop burning me with your cigarette butt?
When I was a kid, I watched this episode and saw Sister Deng corner me in the women's restroom and beat me up.
Did you say thank you?
?
"I see, I didn't quite understand these things. Thank you for teaching me," said Koshimura Sawa with a smile. "By the way, my name is Koshimura Sawa, what's yours?"
Gao Songdeng looked at him with a wronged expression: "I didn't call out."
No, who taught you that?
“What I mean is, what’s your name?” Koshimura explained. “You must also be a student of Haneoka, right? I’m a new transfer student, nice to meet you.”
Gao Songdeng hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke in a sullen voice.
"Takamatsu...lamp." The girl lowered her head after speaking, as if the conversation had exhausted all her energy.
"Leopard one, that leopard one~"
Just then, his cell phone rang in his pocket.
Koshimura quickly answered the call: "Moshi Moshi?"
"Hello, is this Koshimura Sawa? This is your homeroom teacher, Kawakami Sadayo." A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone. "Are you near the school yet? Didn't you say you were supposed to report early? Why didn't you come yesterday?"
what?
What is this for me?
Is this still Haneoka? This isn't the private Shujin Academy either.
Chapter Ten: Are there any normal people left in Yuqiu?
"Ah, I'm very sorry, Kawakami-sensei." Koshimura Sawa said sincerely, "I accidentally got into a fight with a young red dragon and was slightly injured. I was just discharged from the hospital yesterday, which is why I was delayed in reporting."
There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a very soft sigh filled with deep helplessness.
“Koshimura-kun…” Kawakami Sadayo’s voice sounded a little tired. “I understand that you might have some… well… unique fantasies at your age. But, it’s best not to let your chuunibyou affect your real life, okay? Red dragon and stuff… next time, could you make up an excuse that’s a little… well… more relatable? Like, you could say you were helping an old lady cross the street or something, and I’d understand.”
What kind of world is this? Nobody believes the truth anymore.
"Okay, Kawakami-sensei, I'll be right there." Koshimura Sawa hung up the phone and looked at Takamatsu Akari, who was still squatting quietly beside him. "Sorry, Takamatsu-kun, I have to go now. It's almost time for class, you should go back to the classroom too."
Gao Songdeng kept his head down, only giving a barely perceptible "hmm" in response.
At the school gate, students in Haneoka uniforms were coming and going. A teacher who looked to be in his thirties, with slightly curly short hair and a tired expression on his face, was standing there.
"Hello, Mr. Kawakami, I'm Koshimura Sawa." Koshimura Sawa quickly went to greet him.
“Okay.” Kawakami Sadayo glanced at him and nodded. “It seems you still have a basic sense of time. Welcome to Haneoka… There might be another transfer student later, let’s wait here for a while… Ah, she seems to be here.”
Wait, what a coincidence!
Koshimura Sawa stiffly turned his head and saw a girl with long pink hair in the crowd, wearing the uniform of Haneoka Academy, running towards the school gate with somewhat hurried steps.
"Huh? Sawarin?" She came up to the two of them, then suddenly stopped, a delighted smile on her face. "Great! You're in Haneoka too! In the same class? Ah, hello teacher!"
She then noticed Kawakami Sadahiro standing next to her and quickly bowed to greet her.
It is well known that the smaller the mass, the smaller the inertia. Chihaya Aine's performance is such that it's no wonder she is a master in the field of chase battles.
Also, what kind of name is Sawarin?
"Hello," Kawakami Sadahiro said weakly.
It feels like another problem student has arrived.
"Chihaya-kun, I remember the reporting date was yesterday, right? Did something happen? Are you feeling unwell?"
“Ah, speaking of this…” Chihaya Aine deliberately lowered her voice and covered her mouth with her hand as she spoke, “Actually, we accidentally stumbled into a newly formed void, and then we encountered a young red dragon inside, a super big one! Luckily, in a moment of panic, I released a fireball spell to stun him, and then Koshimura went up and chopped through the dragon like vegetables, defeating the red dragon.”
Kawakami Sadayo: "..."
Did you two plan this out beforehand?
You're a naturally evil, delusional brat. Do you think I don't know that the Red Dragon is fire resistant?
“You guys… never mind.” Kawakami Sadaya glanced meaningfully between the two of them. “Now that everyone’s here, come with me.”
------
"My name is Chihaya Aine. I am a new Dragon Vein Sorcerer. I enrolled at this strange time due to family reasons. I hope everyone will be willing to be my friend. Please take good care of me."
The classroom of Class 1-A was spacious and bright, and the students looked curiously at the two transfer students standing side by side on the podium.
