Chapter 432 – #2-39 Magical Girl Academy Infiltration Plan (3)
The planet [Mekrak] Is a hopeless star that is undergoing serious devastation every moment even at this time.
In the first place, it has become like this as a result of forcibly drawing in the energy of the stars for better development, a more comfortable life, and more forward-looking research.
Still.
Even a star like this, which seems to have no dreams or hopes moving towards the apocalypse, has its own proper learning facilities.
Just as the garbage monsters who came to invade the earth have basic common sense not to touch children and minors, it seems that children here are also beings who need to be protected and learned.
“Even so, such educational facilities are not everywhere. It would be nice for a child to be able to take his time and study at his leisure, but that is only possible when he has time to spare.”
[Water City] Researcher Yaya calmly continued her explanation.
What we were riding was a strange vehicle that ran while floating in the air, and it seemed to be something like a [Mekrak] Taxi.
There was some time before arriving at the destination, so I was explaining the situation like this to minimize waste of time.
There is no need to worry about anyone’s ears as the artificial intelligence takes care of the driving without a separate person.
“Okay…? In many ways, there are circumstances.”
“Basically, the 『Education City』 Is built only in or near the city ruled by the [Noble]. Danger lurks everywhere in the outskirts of the city.”
It is not a space where children can carelessly concentrate on learning.
In the first place, what is needed in such a place is not written knowledge obtained by reading books in a peaceful site, but survival knowledge and skills learned in a fierce scene where life is threatened.
“In the first place, you can use a learning device that will finish everything within 10 days. In the case of males, about ■days after they are born, when the magical power stored in their bodies is exhausted and the consciousness data is transferred to the body, accelerated learning using machines begins.”
Starting with the language, the minimum necessary knowledge is forcibly injected using a machine.
After that, he was just a soldier and was used as a cogwheel to roll the stars.
‘To be able to learn with machines… I wish I could do that when I was young, but I thought the same thing.’
When I was in school, when I hated studying painstakingly or taking tests one by one, I thought it would be nice if I could just forcefully insert the necessary knowledge.
Still, now that I’ve heard the story, I don’t think I’m envious.
In the first place, the expression of the investigator who was explaining was not very good. There is such an eye.
And as if empathizing, I heard Danae’s tongue clicking next to me.
“What is that… If you do something like that at that age, it’s just that you’re just copying it the same way without any personality or anything. Can all of you be canned? I think I know why they don’t have anything in their head other than mating like animals.”
“When there are a lot of people, they end up looking for the most convenient way. Even if you tell them to embrace the star that is dying every moment and find a solution beyond that, that is harsh.”
“Okay…”
Dan-ae didn’t look very confident, but the investigator continued saying, “It’s okay.”
“Our women, who did not have to transfer to the body, were able to receive education at proper educational facilities. Still, in the case of me, I didn’t have time to study in peace, so I entered a specialized training institution when I was about 11 and ■years old and received training.”
I’ve heard that the treatment of the only women in [Mekrak] That can provide magical energy is pretty good, but it seems that even they weren’t all affluent.
But, anyway.
No matter what the unfortunate stories were, this 【Education City】 attached to the 【City of Pleasure】 was particularly important.
“Here is plenty. There is nothing dangerous. That’s why all the really noble and high-ranking people come to this city. The males do not become corpuscles, but maintain a living body by continuously consuming magic power.”
That way, highly educated natural elite talents are fostered in a safe and peaceful environment.
After that, they become high-ranking people who sit in important positions that roll the stars, such as politics and economy of [Mekrak]. Or, in the case of those who show genius, they spare no money to let their talent bloom.
“That’s how scientists like 『Doctor』 Were created. He is a terrifying talent who can invent a thousand inventions by himself.”
And the most important of them.
[Nobles] And [Queens], Which are the most important factors in maintaining this planet and continuing the species, are also selected from among them.
“That means, Adedo…”
“Call me Ade, Sasha.”
“…Ade-sama was there too.”
“Yes. The facilities are good and they are ridiculously expensive. Be in awe of a wonderful facility that you would never have seen on a lesser planet like Earth.”
“You have a lot of pride.”
“Because I am proud of it. …Still, it’s gloomy to think that there’s a person involved in this incident.”
――A kidnapping case that takes place in the 【City of Pleasure】.
――A 【Factory】 that thoroughly remodels women and turns them into meat slave products.
Thanks to Danae talking about the contents of her independent investigation, I have a certain outline of what is happening now.
But the darkness and the school… How are they connected?
“Honestly, that education city was a blind spot. Why didn’t I think…”
Danae murmured as if regretting it. Not only did he not come up with it on his own, but more than anything, he seemed dissatisfied with the fact that he learned about it through the information of that investigator he didn’t like.
‘But it’s going to be dark with the school.’
‘Does that mean that he also lays hands on students? Or is it because they are students?’
Worst of all, if the school is holding on to young children who can’t function as a school and have no strength to resist and do such dogmatic things.
At that time, I really plan to kill all of them without covering the front and back.
No matter how unemployed I am, I am a person who lives without much thought, and even if I am not a person who tries to live properly.
At least, they are clearly aware that children are the objects to be protected.
‘Well… I don’t think that’s going to happen after hearing the story.’
‘For now, let’s do it in the mood of sightseeing. If it’s such a great school.’
‘I was very surprised when I first arrived at the city ruled by Qual. Whale-like airships floating in the sky, towers towering geometrically… I’m happy to see this city right now.’
To be honest, I’m looking forward to it.
It’s a school built with [Mekrak]’S technology, and it’s said to be the highest grade.
Wouldn’t it be sure to see a fresh and shocking sight that can’t be seen on Earth?
‘What do you want to learn there? The facilities must be state-of-the-art.’
“Yes…? But how do you hide there? It is state-of-the-art.”
“Hiding?”
“You said you were infiltrating. No matter how much magic you use, there must be some kind of state-of-the-art surveillance technology that can see through that.”
And the biggest problem is that I can’t use stealth-only magic.
Even if you release 〈 Super Dimension Tool 〉 with full force, your strength will only increase.
I’m a worthless magical girl…
“Huh. It’s different from you incompetents, so rest assured that everything is ready.”
“Oh… What preparations?”
“There are people you can trust. You’ll be taking on a little bit of a nuisance, but I’ll take care of all the complicated stuff over there. We just have to focus on finding the dark side on our own.”
After all, is this a pro?
‘My first impression was the worst.’
‘He looks young too.’
Still, since I still think the opponent is a professional, that arrogant attitude is forgiven. It doesn’t bother me to ask questions from this side, and I answer well.
It just doesn’t seem like a bad person.
“So, who is it? Are you really trustworthy? What is the basis?”
Danae tossed it from the side.
Dan-ae is still talking half-heartedly, but her expression didn’t change as if it didn’t matter to her investigator.
“I know when I see it.”
“We have been burned here and there too. Please explain to me what it means to be a trustworthy person.”
“…”
“Hey, are you listening to me?”
“Oh sorry. Just thinking about it for a moment.”
The silver-haired investigator gave a slightly dazed expression, but returned to his quick eyes like before.
…But still, it’s hard to believe that he’s older than us.
“It’s the person Aden-nim introduced me to. As an educator, he’s honestly a great person. …It’s a little bit like being a male, but I think that a person who reaches that level is a person who deserves respect even if he is a male.”
I thought he was someone who didn’t know how to compliment, but surprisingly, his evaluation was generous.
Dan-ae touched her lips as if she had something to think about, perhaps because she was a trustworthy person.
“…Adega… Hmm…”
“Because it’s Mr. Ade.”
Well, Ade’s introduction would be trustworthy. I put down my doubts a little and decided to accept it with ease.
* * *
While talking in so many ways.
The artificial intelligence taxi we were riding arrived at our destination.
–Here…
High fence. Long wall.
A vast site was peeped through the huge front gate made of strangely shaped bars.
I’ve rarely seen a place where the greenery is so green after coming to this planet.
With the exception of Qual’s Mansion Garden and [Water City] Where water is abundant, almost all of it was a desolate wilderness.
By the way.
‘That, that big thing…’
“Is that a school building?! Is…?!”
“OK. Not great.”
The silver-haired investigator said with an emotionless expression.
Like a country boy, he was surprised and admired, but Dan-ae next to him was also stroking his chin as if he was surprised, and glanced around the inside.
“There are a lot of expensive-looking things here and there… Even inside the building…”
Hey, don’t steal
“That building is the middle school building. Since that was my destination, I got off at the nearest front gate this way, but if you go further inside, there are elementary, high school, and university buildings, and there are many other facilities. This in itself is enough to serve as a self-sufficient city.”
“That’s middle school…”
Wouldn’t it be much bigger when you’re in college?
No, aside from the big thing, first of all, the appearance is magnificent, and the lake in front and the clock tower like Big Ben beyond it are honestly overwhelming even from a distance.
“Hey, hurry up and follow me. What are you doing like a country boy? What if the infiltrator draws attention suspiciously?”
“Ah, yes, I got it…”
To nag. Buzz buzz buzz…
There were no security guards inside the main gate where we were standing.
So, I looked at the investigator, wanting to know how to get in, and the investigator, without hesitation, stepped forward to the front gate blocked by the barbed wire.
Let’s stand in front of such a strange iron cage.
Beep beep!
[To enter this area, please present an authorized ID card. For registered faculty and staff, biometric authentication such as fingerprint recognition is also possible.]
“Here.”
[I checked the temporary pass. Thank you Welcome to the place of education, ■■■ Education City.]
With the notification that authentication was complete, there was a beeing sound, and then the barbed wire blocking the front door disappeared as if it were melting.
“Come on, let’s go in. If it’s late, I’m sorry to that collaborator.”
Half-overwhelmed by the majestic atmosphere, Dan-ae and I pursued the investigator who headed toward the middle school building without hesitation.
* * *
After passing through the school gate and arriving at the middle school building, we were immediately directed to the principal’s office.
Even though the corridor was quite complicated to reach the principal’s office, it was not boring because there were many things to see.
When I finally reached the large and dignified door, the investigator knocked lightly.
It seems that this is the principal’s office.
Smart-
“Excuse me. This is Yaya, who was introduced a while ago. Is it okay if I come in?”
『Come in~』
Somehow, the pulse went out, and a human-looking voice came from beyond the door. Well, it was an ordinary voice rather than something special.
Anyway, permission has been dropped, so you can go in. Investigator Yaya reached for the switch that opened the door.
Dig!
“Uh…?”
And my hand.
At some point, it popped out of nowhere, and I was unknowingly holding on to that thin wrist.
Investigator Yaya-sama looked at me as if asking what she was doing.
“Uh, no…”
“What, all of a sudden?”
“Um, well…?”
“Hem? Are you kidding?”
Ahhhhh, Yaya is annoyed …
‘But, I feel a little…’
When I heard a voice from beyond the door a little while ago, after hearing that voice, the back of my neck suddenly ached. Or should I say tingling?
I mean, that’s it.
I feel bad.
For some reason, it seems that if I open this door, there will be no turning back. It’s like I shouldn’t meet the person on the other side.
If I go further than this… I don’t think it will work.
‘Uh… What is it? Maybe good?’
