It’s noisy.

I thought I was on guard duty, took turns with Instructor Aria, and lay down on the bed in the infirmary for a while, but when I came to, I was in the cafeteria.

“Hehehe, you fools.”

At the entrance of the restaurant, there are armed men.

“You didn’t think we would come after you, did you? Haha…!”

Men who looked like bandits were holding pistols and knives, smiling darkly and licking the blades with their tongues.

“We were dragged here because of you guys! You guys caused a clash between the Creation Beasts, and as a result, we can no longer return to our hometown!”

Are they space pirates?

Maybe they are the ones we got sucked into behind us through the wormhole created by Fenrir.

As they drifted through outer space, they had no choice but to reduce their numbers, and in the process, they eventually couldn’t bear it anymore and attacked us.

“…….”

Consciousness is blurry and hazy.

As if I was having a virtual experience in the fog, various things began to float around in my blurry vision.

There is one fortunate thing.

A purple lightning-like spirit is wandering around vaguely next to Lavender, protecting her.

Next to Aria-

“Dieㅡㅡㅡ!

Too doo doo.

Next to Aria, a red dragon is standing on top of her head, protecting herself from the bullets raining down on her.

“…….”

Confusing.

Everything is really confusing.

In the midst of all this, my body and body do not move, and it is painful as if I am tied to something big.

There’s no use tying up a guy like me.

“Khehe, hehehe….”

The space pirate is still smiling darkly and threatening the crew with his sword.

what.

Something is strange.

Could something like this happen?

Have all the security robots been hacked?

In the first place, it’s Fenrir next to Lavender, or Red Moon protecting Aria.

And even in this situation, I can’t feel the texture of the visor at all.

In a situation that I can’t understand at all.

“Kihihihi!!”

A space pirate grabbed a knife and forcibly grabbed the two women.

“Aaagh!”

“Jessie!! In one!!”

Two female students from special forces.

The two were tied up with ropes with their arms behind their backs, and Andy and Jace, who were also members of the special forces, stood up to save her, but-

“Get out!”

The space pirate subdued them by kicking them in the abdomen, and soon pointed a knife at the two girls’ necks.

“Hehe, now I can eat something delicious…!”

“Hee, hee hee…!”

“I was so hungry. Haha, first of all, let’s start with the little things…!”

“Stop.”

I woke up.

“Whether they are cannibals or anything else, taking hostages against students is unacceptable.”

“Instructor, instructor!!”

“What are you?”

Although I still don’t understand this situation.

I already know clearly that no matter what the situation, I must step forward if a student is in danger.

“Come.”

Just raise your hands upward.

“Now, call ■■■.”

As I have always thought, I called it.

“Hehe, what are you doing now-”

Uji string.

The ceiling bursts open and splits left and right.

With sharp nails digging in, the ceiling is torn apart.

What you see is space.

And in that universe, something appears.

It is a white lion mask.

A silver-white beast with a sharp mecha face.

Flashing.

With sparkling blue eyes, it tore through the ceiling and revealed itself to a size that encompassed the entire universe.

[at las.]

It spoke to me.

[Are you looking here?]

The voice that whispered as if tickling my ear was like a girl’s, but-

“Ah.”

I realized.

“It’s a dog’s dream.”

Even if it’s the creation tree.

“It may be possible to tear apart a space battleship, but since space is connected to space, there is no way that you can breathe and breathe without any equipment, and your body will not be ejected into outer space.”

It is impossible to create such an unscientific, physical situation that is far beyond the human body.

“I guess I’ve become a lot weaker. I’m really thinking about asking you for help.”

Is there too much stress?

Or, in the midst of the students’ crisis, did things that were just in their minds come to light?

“I’m sorry, but.”

I walk forward and take the sword from the space pirate.

“Dream, wake up.”

[stop-]

Just like that, it was pierced into my heart.

…

…

…

“It’s a familiar ceiling.”

I woke up from a dream drenched in sweat, looking at the ceiling of the infirmary.

“It was a dream.”

* * *

Adrift, day 20.

Just as our guidelines remain unchanged despite the drift, everyone follows a common routine every morning.

morning.

We all gather together at the restaurant and eat together.

This does not change under any circumstances.

Even if we were really running low on food, even if we had split the day’s worth of biscuits in half three days ago and split them over two days.

In the end, even if all we have to eat are biscuits that can’t even fill 1/10th of the tray, we gather at a restaurant and eat together.

only.

“…….”

Everyone’s expressions are drooping.

Not only students who are in their prime eating age, but even instructor Aria and Captain Edmund can fit their cheeks in it.

If there is someone who seems to be alive and well.

“Lavender.”

“Oh, yes!”

“How are you? You still seem to be in good condition.”

“Is that so…?”

Is it the lavender that seems to have not let go of the only hope or expectation?

“Thank goodness. It seems to be true that people who have more energy stored in their bodies nutritionally are better able to withstand extreme environments.”

“Um, over there…? Now, what are you saying…?”

“Just kidding. I’m sorry. Did you make a slightly sexually harassing joke?”

“…Instructor.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Lavender.

To be precise, it was directed to the ‘fat layer’ that lavender has.

“This has nothing to do with this, right?”

“No. It might be related. When humans fall into an extreme situation, they draw energy from the fat accumulated in their bodies.”

” Earlier, he said it was sexual harassment and said he was sorry!”

“This is just stating the facts as they are. And did you think it was sexual harassment? If that’s the case.”

I walked up to Lavender and patted her on the back.

“Survive until the end, go to some colony, and make sure to sue Trev Cloud for sexual harassment.”

“Yes, yes…?”

“If you have been sexually harassed and want to be brought to justice, shouldn’t you of course file a complaint? Everyone here will be a witness.”

I reached out to everyone.

” I verbally sexually harassed Lavender Whiteley, a student taught by Trev Cloud, so there are so many people who will serve as witnesses when I go to court and judge. Good. This is a golden opportunity to put the mask instructor in jail for sexual harassment.”

In particular, I focused my attention on those who had been dissatisfied with me.

“So, if you get close to a colony, please let me be Lavender’s witness. Especially female students. The instructor is sexually harassing me like this, so how much help would it be if I, as a fellow woman, stood on his side?”

“…Can I record it?”

Hanae raised her hand.

“How about leaving video evidence, instructor?”

“He’s actively trying to send me away.”

“I think the timing is right, so even if I starve, I plan to die and leave my data behind.”

“Oh my. Rather than dying and leaving evidence in the form of tangible items, I think it would be better to file a complaint while alive, right?”

“Is that so?”

Hanae chuckled.

In fact, it was the first time I spoke and laughed.

“Jessie. Do you want to record? I think I can finally send that poor masked instructor away for sexual harassment.”

“Good. If possible, it would be better to have one more person. Instructor, you can make fun of my body. Oh, except for the recording. When I go to court later to report, I will only report that you sexually harassed me with my body.”

It’s funny that only in such an extreme situation can we make somewhat malicious jokes.

“Hey, guys. calm down. And the instructor…”

“It is a prejudice to say that sexual harassment only affects women, student Andy.”

“Hee, hee hee…?!”

Andy, who was serious even at this moment, hid behind Jace as soon as he heard me, and Jace picked up the camera and started recording me.

“Hehe, yes. Record it. That way, there will be evidence. If you have that, don’t you have to sue or do something?”

“Instructor, instructor…!”

“…Stop harassing students.”

Aria stood up.

“What are you doing now?”

She walked straight towards me with a cold voice.

“Sexual harassment of Aria will become more of an issue.”

“…….?”

He held my hand.

Munchul.

“!?!?!?!?!?!?”

He placed it directly on his chest.

“What, what?!”

“Uh huh.”

When I tried to pull my hand away, she turned her back to me and grabbed both of my wrists.

“What, what are you doing?!”

“If you do this, won’t it be like attacking you from behind? You can’t have students sexually harass you.”

“Oh, no…!!”

“You seem embarrassed. Cloud instructor.”

Aria is laughing at me.

“Instructor, instructor!”

“la, lavender. This is….”

“Cha, I’d rather be the scapegoat!!”

Lavender is running wild.

“……Is this a dream?”

I tried my best to keep my hand from touching it, but I couldn’t get my hand out because Aria was grabbing the back of my hand from her wrist.

“What do you think? At this level, I’m confident that it’s okay.”

“Are you out of your mind?”

“Okay. I might have gone crazy in an extreme situation.”

Aria giggled, massaging her chest.

“The instructor decided to play the role of a clown, so I also-”

[See, see—!!]

Through on-board broadcasting.

[Sigh, a signal has arrivedㅡㅡㅡㅡ!! Ah, a signal from Artemis Colony on our side!!]

A call came in from the waiting staff on the bridge.

“…….”

“…….”

“I would explain that it was a stress-related runaway caused by the extreme environment.”

[Recording is complete.]

“…….”
