...-year 421-...
a Saturday.
One morning, when the surroundings were still dark, there appeared a bird flying in the sky, the bird then went down and perched by the window, the bird saw in the window, for some reason the animal tried to enter the room, the bird put its beak into the window slit, so that the window peg lock was lifted which made the window open.
"bruck!" loud noise from the open window.
"hufft" the wind that was suddenly blowing entered the room.
"haah!!!.."
I woke up from sleep shocked to hear a loud noise, plus a sudden chill.
as soon as I woke up from the cold wind from outside, I woke up from sleep and immediately lifted my body to close the window again.
"on Saturday, yes.."
said I who was still sleepy yawned and while rubbing both my eyes
To relieve the drowsiness, I tried to warm up for a while.
"cruccous"
the sound of my stomach being hungry.
I thought it was time for breakfast, I then got ready to change clothes and immediately went out of romance for a while to go to town, I exercised in the morning for a while by running from the hostel to the city.
"..."
I ran around the city, this place was nice but very boring, it was because this city was an educational city, very unsuitable for me and who was an adventurer who loved to duel. so I decided to go to the market that Alvin once suggested, Alvin said there were many goods sold from outside the continent and a hunt for rare wild animals.
A few minutes of travel that I have passed and around the market, the merchandise here is good but I do not know the function, rather than buying but can not use it, I think it is better not to buy.
While I was walking around, I accidentally saw Marie from the front, like she was trying to buy something, I meant to say hello.
"hey Marie!" My greeting
"Oh, you again." replied Marie who was more focused on looking at the merchandise than looking at my face.
"what are you going to buy?" ask Marie
"I want to buy something for my project" Marie said with her flat face.
"i don't know what kind of stuff you mean and the shape of it, or the name, which obviously I don't know anything of the sort"
My word.
"Haa. I want an item that can conduct mystical energy like a current, I want,
think of it like a human vein."
"hm,
greetings to Marie.
"Wait, I actually want someone to help me."
said Marie while pulling my hand.
"Alright, I'm ready whenever you need"
I am happy to accept Marie's request.
"Well let's go to my dorm room"
"..."
We're in the girls' dorm room, by the way,
it would be a problem if I came to the women's dormitory, it was because there was a rule that anyone's men were forbidden to enter or near the dormitory, except for emergencies, but because of Marie's ingenuity, Marie, said, I managed to secretly come to Marie's room.
I then went into Marie's room with her as well.
"So this is your room, messier than mine, I think boys' rooms are slovenier than girls."
Throw me in wonder to Marie's room, because this place is very messy plus very narrow.
A lot of garbage, scrap metal, books and so on, all scattered scattered in this small room, even I did not see her mattress, I think Marie slept on the floor.
"you want to know what the restroom is, if you can get a special room of my research, surely my room will not be as messy."
Cetus marie with an irritated face while kicking Raden's leg.
"auch!"
"..."
Marie was putting and hooking up weird stuff on the table.
"Raden, come here" called Marie who told me to get close to her.
I then approached her, next to Marie there was a bowl-like object, inside the bowl were many small ropes.
"now you hold these little ropes, then flow your energy" asked Marie while giving the little ropes.
"All right, just need to expend energy" answered me, who then received all the ropes and divided them into my hands.
my dick tried to drain a bit of my mystical energy into those ropes, then a strange thing suddenly appeared behind me.
"Oh!!!"
I cried out in surprise at the sound of a small explosion.
"just keep!!" firmly Marie.
Marie then approached the moving object from behind, she seemed to be busy repairing and watching the object.
I don't know what that thing is, because I'm focusing on channeling energy into this rope that I'm holding.
"a little stronger!"
tell Marie while being a little anxious about the things she has.
"Twoaarr!!!"
Marie told me to give her more energy, but I gave her too much energy to make Marie's thing explode.
"Sorry Marie, I seem to be taking too much energy out."
"No, it's not your fault, I know it won't work because the essential ingredients I need don't exist."
"so yeah.. What exactly is that?
"This!, this is the driving machine, still not perfect and need many more improvements."
Connect Marie.
"..."
"You may leave, soon the guards will come here."
marie told me.
"All right, I'll go first."
"Hey if you're sure it's down through there, this place is 20 meters high"
reprimand Marie for worrying,
He forgot that I climbed a big tree when we both went on an adventure from the hardcall city to Masyitan.
"Of course, that height is nothing to me!" speak to me with a confident face.
"Oh, yes you are right, every day you always climb and jump trees like a monkey when..."
"..When we went on an adventure together, you know it wasn't, well I'll go first!"
Connect me and then jump out of the window.
****
In the afternoon.
I am now in the university library, the purpose is none other than to help Marie, I want to be responsible for my negligence that made Marie's machine damaged, as her friend, it is natural to help each other, he said, I'm looking for a book on resources that can deliver energy well.
As I was climbing the stairs to pick up the books from the shelf, suddenly someone called me from below.
"hello, Raden?" Sapa Aurel to me all of a sudden,
"ahh!, Aurel you surprised me!"
Cetus Raden's.
"why should you be surprised, this is a library? I'm not gonna scream for sure?"
aurel said with a feeling a little upset and confused, because he himself did not make Raden surprised.
"sorry I don't mean to blame you, actually I'm a little nervous because I have to be confused because I can't help my friend" said my apology for being rude to Aurel.
"why, come down quickly and tell me." asked Aurel out of curiosity to see Raden who looked agitated.
I went downstairs, then took Aurel to sit at the table provided, short story I then told him everything about Marie this morning, from beginning to end, from beginning to end, and the guilt of having broken Marie's machine when I wanted to help her myself.
"..."
"so I know what Marie needs."
Aurel said with a slightly echoing tone,
but I asked calmly. "Certainly?!, can you tell me?"
Aurel immediately shook his head and as if he was worried, hesitated to tell me. I myself am confused as to why Aurel is acting that way."what's wrong?"
Aurel spoke in a low tone.
"Actually, to look for it I think it is very impossible, if you want to buy it in the market it will definitely be very expensive."
Said Aurel, I had a little idea what made Aurel like that, this material must be very very rare, looking for it in the market is definitely impossible, if I ventured to go to the black market, then, the price of goods must be very expensive, especially my savings are not much.
Funfactnya, all university students have to find their own money to survive, romance and education fees are actually free.so 97% of students in this place have a side job, to just survive, so 97% of students in this place have a side job, to just survive, I myself intend to find a job as well, the rest are mostly rich people like Aurel.
I then thought, why not look for it yourself rather than buy it, after all, this region includes a very dangerous remote area and resources here are still arguably not exploited.
"Can I find it somewhere else?" ask me.
Aurel immediately answered him, but still showed his concern.
"Sure, I know the place..."
I don't know what makes Aurel like that, maybe he's worried or something like, I have to look for him in a faraway place, or look for him through hunting dangerous wild animals.
but I am brave as well as an adventurer, I already have a lot of experience in the wild.
"Then tell me, please Aurel.."
ask me to Aurel.
Aurel then stood up and left the desk chair that he was sitting on.
"alright, you can go tomorrow, now come with me to the principal to ask your permission."
tell Aurel to me.
Aurel granted my request and asked me to follow him to the room to the school, I then stood up leaving the seat, then left the library with Aurel.
"You're right, I'll go alone tomorrow." Answer me, please,
Aurel's expression was slightly surprised
"would not, it would be very risky if you go alone, it would be better to invite your friend, Alvin" said Aurel.
As per his suggestion, I agreed to invite Alvin to go along, but I was a little suspicious about the material to look for, if Aurel was constantly exhibiting that trait, he said, the place I was going to was very dangerous.
"well I'll take her, by the way can I get permission to leave?"
"just relax, I can arrange it, you forgot I'm a noble princess."
"oh right also, ha. why the fall like being using the position of others"
My breath, it feels bad to use the power of others for personal gain.
"don't think like that, I know you want to help Marie, for that I'll help you too" she said
me and Aurel left the library, but just at the exit, Aurel stopped suddenly, turned around and spoke to me.
"I think you'd better wait here"
Saying,
"alright!"
"..."
I waited a long time, once in the library, I read a lot of books to the point that I didn't realize I had been in this place for 2 hours.
had thought if Aurel forgot and left me, but I still faithfully waited.
in the end Aurel came, I greeted him well, but Aurel's face looked very anxious...
"what's wrong?"
"you're leaving tomorrow!"
