Doom

While Ex steeled himself for what was to come. 『My child.』 A message from Elysia appeared before Elia's eyes. 『The time has come to fulfill our long-cherished wish.』 As though reminding her of what she had always been meant to do, Elysia showed her the objective once more. 『Core Objective Uphold Justice(S): Kill ‘Ex’. Success:…

“Elia, what are you doing here…?!” Access to and from the Academy was supposed to be under strict control. There was nothing strange about Leon’s party being allowed outside the Academy. They were the heroes chosen by the Goddess, so they had more than enough justification. But Elia was different. She had no legitimate reason…

Frey threw up a Barrier of Light in an attempt to defend them, but there was no way she could withstand the bombardment exploding in from every direction all by herself. It wasn't something a human being could block in the first place. In the end, the Barrier of Light collapsed, exposing Leon's party to…

“Aura?! Wasn't he a mage?!” “So the rumors were true…?” Leon's party stared in shock at the Aura Line wrapped around Ex's sword. Their highly trained senses as martial artists made one thing perfectly clear. That wasn't magic. It was aura. Leon, having healed his face with his own divine power, fixed a wary glare…

While Ex was still shaking off the last traces of sleep, Circe instantly readied herself for battle and swept her gaze across their surroundings. There was nothing around them. Even the warning magic Circe had set up…

“Ex, calm down first.” He couldn’t calm down. “Get a grip on yourself.” He couldn’t do that either. “Then at least stop and think for a second!” Ex, who had collapsed onto the floor, finally forced his trembling legs to still.

『An unidentified setting element has been detected. The discovered element has a Plausibility Destruction Grade of F-. A corresponding reward will be issued.』 『Reward: 100 Editing Points acquired』 ‘That’s stingy!’ Finding a Discarded Setting was nice and all, but the reward was way too small. Ex quietly complained to Serry. “Why’s the reward so low…?”…

Getting to the Ancient Ruins had been anything but easy. First, Ex had to convince both the Chairman and Darius. He told the Chairman that this was an opportunity to raise the academy's prestige, while he persuaded Darius by saying it was necessary to break the Emperor's curse. Both reasons were reasonable enough, so the…

『Warning! Severe scenario deviation detected.』 Scenario deviation correction procedures will now begin.』 『Error! This action falls under [Authorized Authority]. This action will be replaced with Plausibility Adjustment.』 『Target: Protagonist 「Leon Brave」 Action: Disposition will be adjusted.』 *** “I’m bored…” The mischievous eyes beneath her mane of blue hair drooped listlessly.
