Episode 15

6. Paradise Patch and Dummy Data (2)

It was nonetheless

I immediately ran out of the dormitory and headed to the rehearsal hall of the four weeks. There was still plenty of time until curfew.

And when I visited the gym again, there was a part that was slightly different from the one I saw the other day.

Actually, I felt something uncomfortable before, but I didn’t notice it because I didn’t pay much attention to it.

The shape of the roof has also been changed to be more refined, and a beautiful oriental-style mural is painted on the wall that was just a wooden fence.

‘Come to think of it, there must have been something like a weapon stand installed in the corner.’

I carefully opened the wooden door and entered the gym.

Again, unlike the last time it was a wasteland, weapon holders were installed in the corners, and some other objects were newly placed.

Maybe it’s because it’s so natural during the day that I didn’t notice it.

“Taha! Hey!!!”

Besides, there are not only small objects, but also two people who became the subjects of Missing No.

In the middle of the dance hall where the bright moonlight fell, Tae-Hoon and So-Young were working hard to train in harmony with each other.

profit.

At the strange sound of the door hinges creaking, the eyes of the two people are focused on me for a moment.

“Who are you?”

“Fold, Baek Sanwoo.”

The line between the two of them was blurring with just three names. I slowly walked towards them. Still, the console was unresponsive.

Now I had to admit it.

They were not dummy data, but normal NPCs that were originally scheduled to appear.

“Baek San-woo, what are you doing here at this hour. Do you have any items you left behind?”

“No, I ate dinner and I want to do some training for a while.”

It was made up as an excuse, but it wasn’t a particularly bad excuse.

Because this is a place where only they can train, so I didn’t see any people who would terrify them to leave.

As soon as Tae-hoon heard my words, he got excited and spread his arms wide.

“We’re very welcome! Still, it was a bit of a struggle since only the two of us practiced!”

I turned my head and looked at Yoon So-young. She also seemed to have no idea.

‘Hmm, come to think of it, did I mention that a new companion was added? It’s because he’s an acquaintance of the named NPC Camilla Lily.’

Perhaps these two are companions.

I thought, flicking my fingers.

The NPCs in Paradise Academia can be divided into three categories.

A ‘non-player’ that has little contact with the main character and only provides convenient in-game functions like a shop.

A ‘companion’ that can be used as a member of the ‘club system’, which is opened after the dungeon is conquered, or, furthermore, can be accompanied as a companion.

Lastly, the role is almost the same as that of the companion, but there is a ‘heroine’ that can raise ‘love’ as additional content.

Basically, if you reach 100 in favorability, you can increase your affection.

If you are in a romantic relationship, your abilities will increase significantly, and the direction in which you can use the NPC is greatly expanded as the reliability is set to MAX.

But that much, the heroines were very few compared to the many companions of Paradise Academia.

For example, Camilla Lilly is a companion but not a heroine.

If you raise your liking, your feelings as a ‘colleague’ will only increase, and you will never feel a thrilling atmosphere with the main character, Aidan.

Let’s put it off by the fact that it was made separately for each man and woman.

Tae-Hoon Kim and So-Young Yoon are probably ‘couple companions’, not heroines.

Companions who maintain a strange relationship between themselves, not players.

Things like being entangled in a quest, having a past between the two of us, or just feeling good about it.

Well, unless you apply a separate mod, you don’t know if the two will continue later in the game.

‘So, for a while, mods that developed this kind of couple-companion relationship were all the rage on the forums.’

Anyway, aside from the continuation, most players, including myself, preferred to have couple companions in a club together.

This is because, when couple companions belong to a club together, they can get quite a nice additional stat buff effect.

‘After making a good impression in advance, I can put you in as a colleague right away when the club is open.’

Because it is a kind of party or expedition system in other games, the more colleagues, the better.

I took off my coat, put it neatly on one side of the gym, and stood in front of the two in light clothes.

“By the way, Sanwoo-sama, have you been acquaintances with Camilla-sama from the beginning?”

“Ah… it’s not like that. We live in the same dormitory next door.”

“Aha! That’s right. You seem very friendly. It was nice to see you.”

Every time I hear it, it’s always a powerful voice. It feels like a positive energy springs up every time you spit out each word.

“I’m glad, though. I was a little worried.”

Yoon So-young, who was silent, added a word.

“What?”

When I asked, Soyoung flinched and scratched her cheek with her slender fingers.

“Ah… I’ve been hearing a lot of bad rumors about the firefighting genre lately. I don’t know the details, but I think you’re going to have a lot of trouble.”

“Soyoung, why are you saying that? It’s just a rumor.”

“Still, I thought I might have to tell my close friends… Wouldn’t it be more helpful than us?”

Taehoon looked at Soyoung displeasedly and said. As it was probably a family matter, he seemed to be sensitive.

But what those two are talking about, I already know.

As I said before, Camilla is currently embroiled in a battle for succession within the family.

Originally, it would have been reasonable for Camila to become the head of the household, but her age and skill set an obstacle.

age 16 years old. He is too young to lead a family. Even so, her skills were not overwhelming enough to suppress the dissatisfaction of other collaborators.

Of course, she’s excellent, but there were still many people who were better than her in the field.

A direct line is the central pillar of a family. The moment that pillar shakes, no matter how strong a building is, it will collapse without a hitch.

Camila, who has a lively smile every time, will still have a hard time in her own way.

But even if I want to help, I can’t. The time when she can proceed with her epic quest ‘The Road No One Finds’ is from the summer vacation of her freshman year.

Until then, we have no choice but to wait quietly.

‘Besides, the quest reward, Chessul, is already being learned. Even if it’s a sorry word for Camilla, if you can’t help it, you can postpone the quest.’

I nodded and interrupted the two of them, whose voices began to rise.

“What are you fighting about? Camilla is a friend of mine, so whatever it is, I’ll figure it out.”

“Ah…! I’m sorry. Such disrespect in front of my eyes!”

“……sorry.”

“Okay. It’s not that big of an excuse.”

It’s definitely a fighting character.

Like Camilla before we got to know each other, Taehoon and Soyoung always seem to care about their behavior even when they talk lightly.

Maybe it’s because it’s a profession that worships nothing and politeness so much.

‘Once we get to know each other, it’s a joke too.’

I smiled as I remembered Camila devouring the meal right in front of my eyes.

“Anyway, why don’t you play against each other once in a while? I really want to see the skills of the two of you.”

I reached out to Taehyung and said.

He is a person who has made a point ahead of time as a future colleague. There was nothing wrong with judging how good his skills were.

Also, I want to practice the martial arts I learned from Camila in practice.

“of course!”

Tae-hoon willingly accepted the offer, backed up and took a confrontational stance.

The cool night wind tickles my earlobes.

Taehoon and I faced each other at the same time.

* * *

quickly.

“Ugh… I’ll turn around. Testimony.”

I made a shattering sound and rubbed my shoulders as they turned. Camilla looked at me like that with worried eyes.

“Are you okay? Wasn’t it too much yesterday? You lasted much longer than I thought…”

“It’s not like that, so it’s okay.”

It was okay until I got an education from Camilla. The problem was Dalian, which continued into the night.

I didn’t know it at the time, but when I woke up from sleep, my body was quite sore.

It looked like he was using his body a little too much.

Still, I got results. It was a different experience from just punching or kicking in the air or hitting a scarecrow.

fist to fist.

That was pretty heartbreaking.

I could vaguely feel why the fighters who appeared on TV stood up in the ring to die and die even after they became blood clots.

You won’t be able to forget the bloody spirit you feel the moment your strength and power meet.

It was a simple matchup and there was no ill will to each other, so it was finished in a safe and appropriate line.

The martial arts Taehoon and Soyoung showed was very bitter.

As if once again proving that it is a martial art based on Taekwondo, sharp techniques based on kicks.

As someone who has even mastered Taekwondo 2nd class, some movements were quite familiar.

In particular, it was twisted at an artistic angle, and the hit and run back kick was to the point of sticking out the tongue.

‘In the end, I couldn’t get a proper hit.’

I thought, taking a breather. It is also strange that a beginner who has just learned the martial arts can defeat Tae-Hoon and So-Young, who are named companions.

“What should I do today? If you’re not feeling well, you can rest.”

“No, it can’t be. You say that sincerity is the best virtue in martial arts?”

“Even so…”

“Don’t worry too much because you’re in good shape. And if you get hurt or sick, you can be healed at the temple of Canaan, right?”

It doesn’t matter as long as you don’t die. No matter where the bones were broken, the muscle was torn, or even the arm was cut off, the temple was the place to heal with amazing divine power.

Even if you fight or train, you won’t die, right?

“Then go ahead and wait today. Or was it in the dormitory?”

“why?”

“I have a make-up class today.”

“Make-up lessons? What did you do wrong?”

“It’s not like that! It’s only for today. It was said that the seniors of the limited express class came and played each other in person. Applications are free, but you can’t miss this opportunity.”

Camila responded with a furious response to my words. What… … Who said what? I was just asking.

“Then let’s go inside. Fighting today.”

“Yeah, work hard.”

Her advanced class was in the annex on the right, and my intermediate class was held in the annex on the left, so we split in front of the school gate.

As I was heading to the classroom right after I broke up with Camilla, an unwelcome guy greeted me.

“Good morning, Amico.”

A man with medium and medium hair with bright green hair.

A character that can’t be beaten because it adds a sweet beauty to the standard-type face shape that comes to mind when you think of a general fantasy noble.

Damn speedy week… … No, it was George.
