1.

I was possessed in the beginning part of a novel I was reading.

What the fuck.

The tag for that novel is mystery.

Let’s start.

The owner of the body I took over was the third son of Count Herricks.

Count Helix.

It is located quite far from the capital of the empire, in the Kapiolich territory facing north.

To put it nicely, it was one of the counts, and to put it badly, it was a country town.

Because the North was subjugated to the empire and a long time had passed, it naturally lost its power.

Anyway, the first thing I saw after my awakening was the sky outside the window with snow falling like it was ripping apart.

It was a moonlight scar that drew a long line that was embedded in the body.

Oh, to be more specific, it was earlier.

When the Moon Piercing Wolf was running towards me.

Because I was sitting there with the dagger in my arms.

The timing of the ice was really caught like a dog.

After that, well.

As the name Moon Piercing Wolf suggests, my arm was almost ripped off about 3 times by sharp teeth.

After holding on for a while, one of the common senses of this world naturally flashed into my mind.

I saw the blue fur on the chest of the wolf cub, which was covered only with white fur, shining.

Just before the gaping maw began to glow and a moonlight-like black aura was emitted, I put the dagger into the maw and cut off the neck.

…Actually the timing was a little late.

Because the sword was slashed diagonally from the chest to the waist.

It was only when I was about to be defeated that the servants came to find me and escorted me to the mansion.

These guys are always late.

The thought that came to my mind at that time was,

‘Fuck, this other world is so fucking tough…’

It was.

…

Enduring the daily routine of training after training to prepare for the events that may occur at the Academy…

And finally.

I was admitted to the academy.

The part I saw in the novel Akama-Ouen, which I had been obsessed with, was exactly the part before the paid version.

It was an embarrassingly insufficient amount to gain a chance.

Actually, I had a hard time because I was possessed before the starting point of the work…

Anyway,

But shouldn’t we use the information we already know?

Information about the two people who are currently on stage.

“…Next, there will be a reading of the Academy Student Declaration by the representative of the incoming freshmen. Top incoming freshmen! Kariel! Second incoming freshmen! Srenia! Forward! ”

-Clap clap clap clap clap!

Applause filled with admiration, longing, and envy filled the auditorium.

The two came up on stage, stood side by side, and began reading the declaration.

“One, we are dedicated to learning as proud students of the Academy.”

Cariel Algion.

The second son of Duke Algione, one of the three dukes of the empire.

There are many nicknames for him, such as the 1000-year-old story, noble prince, reincarnation of a star, etc.

But what’s surprising is that all of these obvious yet flashy nicknames are so fitting for the name Kariel Algion.

But my interest was more focused on the second place than the first place.

“One, as proud students of the Academy, we grow and work together through fair competition.”

Srenya Ifkea.

One of the heroines in Akama-Ou.

Here is some information about her:

The third princess of the kingdom of Iphisia, the kingdom of the elves and a place protected by the World Tree.

Even among the elves, he was known for his exceptionally strong ‘spiritual eyes’, and he rose to become an authority on spirit magic before reaching adulthood.

There were some who said that the fame was too much for a child.

A single-handed achievement of establishing communication with ancient spirits and ancient spirit magic that was thought to have been lost.

She was also often the subject of gossip because of her beautiful appearance, which was favored by the rich.

There were also rumors that she was the empire’s greatest beauty and the future great spirit sorcerer.

That she entered the academy to advance her spirit magic to the next level, to learn how to use spirit magic, and to gain a deeper understanding of the third world.

And most importantly…

It’s likely that she and I will become lovers, perhaps cliche-wise.

Of course! The future is not set in stone yet!

However, if you look at me, possessed as the main character on the cover, and the heroines spread out around me, I thought that they would form a #harem, which is one of Akama-oh’s tags.

From what I’ve learned during the free round… yes.

It’s a feeling of anticipation that can’t be hidden no matter how hard you try to ignore it.

While I was thinking about something else, the reading of the student representative declaration was almost at its end.

“”One, as proud students of the Academy, we swear before the Academy that we will continue the legacy of the warriors and realize justice on this continent!!””

2.

Kai took in the sight of the two people who came up onto the stage.

Even though I know the information about the heroine, it’s really only her appearance and name on the cover…

It was impossible to find more leads among the kids sitting together like bean sprout pots.

If it weren’t for the fact that I came up on stage like this.

‘Srenya. One of the main characters of Akama. And the second-ranked student among this year’s students…’

I don’t know who it is.

But… that appearance was so dazzlingly beautiful that I could never forget it.

As I turned to face the students, holding the declaration gently between my index, middle, and thumb fingers, I heard small sighs coming from here and there.

Of course, that wasn’t the moment I fell in love.

Is it like the feeling you get when looking at a work of art?

To put it eloquently, it looked like the marble of beauty had been carved by the hand of God.

Her height and long limbs, which make her appear larger than the average academy student, create truly unrealistic proportions.

Her splendid blond hair, which flows down to her buttocks, sways as if alive, responding to her every movement.

The elven ears, characteristically pointed, were perfectly symmetrical and stood vertically.

By elven standards, these would be the most beautiful ears.

And the voice coming out of her tiny mouth was different from that of a delicate girl.

It is strong and refined, as if it contains the principles of the world like a wise man.

But her gaze, which makes all of that seem like just ‘so-so’, intensely captivates the audience.

If I had to describe this look in one sentence…

It looks like a work of art, made by breaking emeralds, sapphires, and blue topaz and reconstructing them in a mosaic style.

No, it looks like a folded version of the sea of stars reflected on Lake Ruskinea that I saw during the night.

No, no…

It’s mysterious.

Deep and beautiful.

No amount of adjectives can describe the look in those eyes.

When I can’t take my eyes off you, even though I lament my limited vocabulary.

“”…I swear!!””

The reading of the declaration is finished.

But at the same time, the applause that should have erupted was a little slower to come this year.

I understand.

It’s only natural to feel awe in the face of such an appearance.

3.

Thunderous cheers and applause followed.

The eyes of countless students pierce through me as I stand on the stage.

A look that seems to be filled with admiration and longing.

It looks like everyone is looking up.

‘…ugh’

It’s unpleasant.

It’s fleeting.

All of this is not natural.

Among those students, there was a boy with his mouth wide open,

A girl looking at the stage with a poisonous look in her eyes,

There are scheming politicians who may be calculating a slightly different favor.

‘Srenya. Listen to this father.’

‘…Father. I don’t understand! Why should I waste my time going to an academy like that? Don’t you really know that the time I would have gained enlightenment through conversations with spirits would be worth several times, no, dozens of times more!?’

‘Don’t you know? The real reason why you should go to the Academy.’

In the Academy, everyone is equal.

Additionally, the use of ‘Sex’ is strictly prohibited.

So that those who are overshadowed by their family background can come out into the world and showcase their talents.

Banning the use of ‘surname’ and the borrowing of family power means that everyone is starting from the same starting line.

Because on the surface it looks like they’re hiding each other’s identities.

It’s like a masquerade ball, you know everything, but it’ll look like you don’t know.

Maybe there really is someone who hides their identity.

…at least to me, it’s bullshit.

Anyone can think of me when they see my appearance.

If you’re not sure, just look into my eyes and anyone can think of it.

That she is the third princess of the Episiah Kingdom.

In the Academy, everyone must compete on equal footing.

But… what if we could borrow the status and past achievements of one kingdom among them?

Who am I, with my extraordinary looks that no one can confuse me with and whose fame spreads across the continent through the mouths of the rich?

Even if everyone stands in the same position, I will stand out more.

It’s not fair.

It’s not natural.

But to that end, the Senate and my father used me as propaganda.

A scholar who has built up authority in the academic world without the help of the Academy, a strategist of the Kingdom of Episia, who attends the Academy as if seeking friendship with the Empire, but has the ability to suppress others.

But even so, I, who followed my father’s will like a puppet, am I not in a similar situation in the end…

It seems like they are putting on a play where they have to shake off all the pretense of a nobleman’s attitude, demeanor, and speech.

The exact opposite of how humans are born.

Following a set etiquette that is not comfortable to move in.

By cramming your body into that frame.

‘How can Lady Srenya be so elegant? She really feels like the aristocrat of aristocrats!’

‘Wow, wow… I want to talk to you just once. Your speech, voice, and vocabulary all feel sophisticated…’

‘With such a flawless appearance… he must be a role model for the nobles.’

‘Fuck.’

Harsh words came out of my mouth.

Rather, this seems more natural.

At least it’s an honest expression of feelings.

“Miss Srenya? Is there anything that is uncomfortable?”

Cariel Algion.

Kijae, who had the honor of being admitted at the top of his class, stood next to me and looked at me with a worried look.

‘I wish I could be friends with Cariel Algiers.’

If you think of Episia, this is a talent you absolutely must become close with.

Of course, not as a friend.

Partner, I guess.

No, should I say it’s all in one?

I don’t like it.

Don’t insult the name of friend by doing things like this.

As I became acquainted with the spirits and was enveloped in their naturalness and purity…

I want to shout at him to stop saying the word friend with that dirty mouth.

I hope you don’t just assume that I will live up to your disgusting expectations based on my appearance.

“Rather than being uncomfortable, is it overwhelming? As a proud student of the Imperial Academy, reading the declaration… is an honor that no one can easily obtain.”

But all that came out of my mouth were ceremonial and clichéd words.

“Hahaha, is that so? I still feel like my heart is pounding.”

He continued to engage in such meaningless conversations and hypocritical and pretentious behavior.

I felt like I was going to throw up because I was so disgusted with myself.
