The evaluation of dispatched internships varies greatly depending on the individual student’s personality.

If you are a student who likes to go out and doesn’t like to sit at a desk and study, you will definitely like the field trip. The academy classes are not that easy. In fact, if you didn’t receive proper lessons from a private tutor or went to a separate school when you were young, just keeping up with the classes will be difficult.

Moreover, since they were already receiving education, there was no way they would listen to the school classes half-heartedly. Since grade rankings were also related to the honor of their family, most noble children tried hard to maintain at least above average grades.

If you are someone who feels stifled by that kind of atmosphere, you will find this kind of internship, where you can take a breather and escape from the system, very refreshing. This is especially true for commoners who find it burdensome to travel outside the system. Of course, if you are a commoner whose family circumstances are that difficult, you probably wouldn’t have been able to enter the academy.

On the other hand, if you have an introverted personality and are not good at asking people on the street about things, or if you hate going out, then this kind of class is not for you at all. You would rather stay in your room and read a book. If you have a group of people to hang out with, you can probably get along with them, but if you don’t even have that, then it’s going to be hard to even get the minimum score.

As for me, I’m the latter type of person.

I used to play games that were released every year, with an initial play time of at least 50 hours and up to 80 hours, over and over again. In my other time, I would read short side stories, comics, and setting books, and even when I wasn’t reading Azerna’s biographies, I would read books, watch movies, dramas, or watch animations.

I travel very occasionally, but when I do, I try to make sure my accommodations are as comfortable as possible and minimize my outings. If I don’t have a plan, I don’t go out.

“Sylvia!”

“Eh?”

“… … Sister Sylvia?”

That is to say, the personality of my younger sister, who is not related to me by blood and whom I have not seen for 10 years, who opens the door to my room at 4 in the morning and wakes me up, did not match mine in many ways.

again!

Why did I choose the image of cool beauty?

Wouldn’t it have been better to choose an emotional and optimistic personality? You could have been a character who is usually very easygoing and easy-going, but who can easily solve difficult problems when you put your mind to it.

When I first came up with the cool beauty concept, the reason was that ‘I can minimize things like facial expressions and it’s good for hiding my thoughts,’ but thinking back, even if she had just had a personality like Lucas or Jake, if I had just added something like ‘she’s dark inside,’ she could have been a great character.

If I didn’t have to maintain the concept of cool beauty, I wouldn’t have had to wake up 30 minutes before Claire came barging into the room, wash up, get ready, and pretend to clean my gun.

“Sylvia! Ah, you’re awake.”

Honestly, I don’t think it’s necessary to say ‘I knew it would happen’.

Claire was extremely flustered when she saw me panicking while sleeping. Honestly, there was absolutely no reason for her to open her eyes wide when she saw me waking up early and cleaning my gun.

“Well, last time Sylvia woke up before us.”

… … When did I?

…………ah.

Is this the first time you’ve solved a request after entering school?

It seemed like he was talking about the time he woke up earlier than Leo and Claire, who had already come out at 4 in the morning, and caught the Elemental Poison.

Since then, I didn’t bother to wake up before them and do their requests. It was better for my mental health to wake up and go study at the same time Alice wakes up. Sometimes, if I had something to do separately, I would ask for their understanding and do it separately.

Even for the subquests that I know of, I had to wake up at 3 AM, which was really hard work. If I try to complete the parking lot quest that isn’t even described in the game before these two, I might really have to go around without sleeping.

“Leo and I are going to go out first, what about Sylvia? Do you want to go out together?”

“… … .”

I was lost in thought for a moment. If I leave from now on, there would be some kind of quest.

Unless the requests were really urgent, they were requests that Jennifer had collected in advance. In the game, they came in under the name of ‘quests’… … Unlike the first week, which was almost like a tutorial, this was the first dispatch training, and now was the time to slowly enter the main story.

The game’s story isn’t made up of just the main characters. There are hunting quests that don’t affect the story at any time, so you can do them during the current time slot without any problems, but quests involving people will definitely have to be done according to the time slot.

My goal is to experience the story of this game as a character and bring back to life the characters who are destined to die and see them have a happy ending.

… … I didn’t do anything particularly bad, but since I was possessed by this world, I decided to make that my goal.

“What about the princess?”

“Princess? Oh, Alice.”

Claire’s expression darkened slightly at my question.

Claire probably doesn’t have any ill feelings toward Alice. Rather, she’s probably a little bitter about the fact that she was the one who came out first and became like a sister to me, but now Alice and I have that kind of relationship.

Well, if Lucas hadn’t been there, I might have gone to Grace. Then, Leo, Claire, and I might have been the three siblings, and I might not have chosen the ‘cool beauty’ character.

Well, it’s already happened, and I liked the character Alice, so I’m enjoying the current situation in my own way.

“Alice seems to be still half asleep. Actually, I stopped by Alice’s room before coming here, but she was mumbling so I couldn’t hear what she said properly.”

“… … .”

hmm.

But I thought Alice would join eventually.

The reason is simple. In the game, you can include Alice in your party formation. If Alice was still sleeping, it would have been impossible to include her in the party from the first quest.

“Okay, I’ll get down there right away.”

“Okay!”

Claire’s expression brightened instantly after hearing my answer. Is that really that good?

Well, Claire didn’t even have any family-like existence, so she might be happy just by the fact that there is someone like me who is like family, unlike in the original.

Come to think of it, what happened to all those orphans who were barely described in the original work? Are they still at Grace? Maybe they were hired there and are working as servants or maids.

If it were the current Claire, she would treat the orphans who came in as her servants as if they were her brothers or sisters.

It was a sight that made me feel good just imagining it.

According to the story, Grace will visit later, so let’s check it out then.

“Then I’ll go down first and order from the morning!”

“Okay, I’ll just finish what I’m doing and go down right away.”

“Yeah!”

Claire nodded vigorously and closed the door carefully. Then she heard footsteps leaving the room in a bit of a hurry.

Are you excited?

Well, maybe so. There were two people, no different from my family, and all my close friends were here.

From Claire’s perspective, it seems like they all just came out to play. Could it be considered something similar to a retreat?

“… … .”

I thought to myself as I slowly began to reassemble the gun parts that I had disassembled and was absentmindedly cleaning.

Well, well.

Even I, an introvert, was looking forward to it, but it was a little funny to think that Claire, with that kind of personality, wouldn’t be looking forward to it.

“Hwam.”

… … Still, it was inevitable that I was a little tired.

*

Although I pretended to be thorough and took apart the gun and fixed it early in the morning, I don’t think it was a bad thing. Thanks to that, I was able to check the condition of the gun one more time before getting into the real work. If the gun had broken down in a dramatic situation, I might have had to turn it around and reassemble it for hours.

Since I wasn’t going to go out right away, I left the gun safely inside my room and went out.

“Ah… … Sylvia… … .”

I heard a voice calling me that was different from what I usually hear.

“Princess.”

“… … I’m still in training… … but since I’m still an academy student, please call me by my name… … .”

Even though I could barely open my eyes and was making noises like a half-zombie, Alice still teased me like that.

“Are you okay?”

“… … Does it look okay?”

Alice turned her face straight towards me to ask my question. The reason I said she turned her face towards me instead of looking at me is because Alice couldn’t open her eyes properly.

Her face wasn’t swollen, and aside from her hair being a little crooked, she still had Alice’s pretty face, but even for Alice, who was very meticulous about taking care of herself, waking up at four in the morning seemed difficult for many reasons.

“… … hair sticking out.”

“… … Okay. Even though I know it, I don’t have the confidence to fix it right now. ”

Alice said the same thing to me and just started walking slowly.

However, as he spoke, he seemed to be waking up little by little, and his voice, which had been cracked, was slowly returning to normal.

I followed Alice down the stairs, paying close attention to her footsteps, as she walked down the stairs with her eyes barely open. Fortunately, Alice did not lose her footing and lose her dignity.

When we went down to the first floor and found a restaurant, there were several round tables similar to the ones we had seen near the station before.

However, the surrounding area looked somewhat different from what we had seen.

Unlike that place, where it was a little dark even though it was broad daylight, this place was bright even though the sun hadn’t risen yet. The floor was wooden, but it was old and creaky and blackened here and there, unlike that restaurant/inn, it was made of high-quality wood and had been well-maintained. The hotel lobby that I had seen before coming in here was also very well-built.

Even though it was clearly a place built with different materials and money, seeing that restaurant made me think that the North is still the North.

“Hello.”

Leo, who had been sitting and waiting, raised his hand and greeted us.

“… … .”

And next to her, her classmates, who were almost like zombies, were sitting one after another, just like Alice.

In fact, Mia Crowfield already looked like she was dead. She was sitting on a chair, but her head was on the table and she didn’t move at all.

Jake kept rubbing his eyes, and Charlotte was barely able to sit on the chair without losing her dignity as a princess.

……thank god.

I was just ordinary.

Well, the original protagonist was Leo.

The original protagonist’s group is a group of beings that move as the protagonist leads them.

The problem was that the main character woke up a little too early.
