7. Student Council – 09

[Ragnarok].

The game Jin was holding on to until the last moment before he came to this damn world, and at the same time, the game that is assumed to be the true identity of this world he was dragged into.

The reason for ‘guessing’ is because, in fact, Jin has no idea what kind of game [Ragnarok] is, what kind of story it has, how it should be played, and how to see the ending.

Yes. Jin does not have any information about the game [Ragnarok]. No, he wasn’t a gamer who enjoyed that shit game in the first place.

If I had to use an analogy, I was nothing more than a newbie at the level of a chick who installed the game out of curiosity to get into this game.

Nevertheless, the reason why Jin guessed that he came to the world in [Ragnarok] is simple.

First of all, I lost my mind as soon as I installed that dog-like game and logged in, and then woke up to this damn world.

Second, if he dies, it is very similar to the game’s ‘Save Road’ in that he jumps back in time and returns to the moment he fell into this world.

And third, that other people could never recognize or notice, but he could clearly see something translucent called the status window.

In fact, the status window he had was a decisive indicator that the world he was currently in was infinitely similar to the reality he belonged to, but at the same time it was a different world.

But at the same time, this status window was something that Jin could never manipulate or handle.

Because it is common for Jin to never appear before his eyes unless he summons it with willpower, and since the letters on the status window are all broken, it is impossible to even decipher what is written on it.

It was from this episode that the action indicators could only be determined by reading the letters on the status window, albeit vaguely.

The fact that 10 years from now, an end that cannot be resisted by human power will come.

That there are as many as seven elements of the end that are scheduled to destroy the world in the future.

And the fact that ‘certain factors’ are needed to break the end with human power alone.

All of this information was a fact that Jin had found out after rolling over and over again for the past hundred years, but none of the information that the status window had told him existed.

That’s why Jin gave up halfway.

Even though I’ve been killed nine times so far, I’ve only reached the end of the third. So, how long will it take to face all the demise and break them?

… However, things have changed a bit.

In the past hundred years, the status window, which had never responded despite Jin’s longing and earnest prayer, appeared on its own.

That too, even though it is broken in the middle, still with a message popping up enough to catch a glimpse of its contents.

[A divergence occurred in ■sa ■!]

[■■Ni■ where the ■Inquest is true.]

[First species ■. I got a book against ■■’s dragon!]

There was no need to ask Erekaya for help.

Even if Jin wasn’t as genius as Erekaya, he wasn’t so stupid that he couldn’t decipher a single phrase like that.

‘The turning point, the main quest, and the first end… .’

It must have been. At this moment, something that can be called a ‘turning point’ in history has occurred, and the status window must have been informing Jin of that fact.

If so, a question arises here.

why? why come now?

In the past hundred years, even though Jin has done all kinds of shit and nonsense, he didn’t give any help or advice, as if he was laughing at him instead of giving him a hint.

And, unfortunately indeed, there was only one answer to which the set of circumstances pointed.

‘Now this is the ‘correct answer’.’

Jin does not know about [Ragnarok]. I entered this world without knowing what the game was, who the characters were, and how to proceed.

For this reason, there were times when Jin had to risk his life to get even the smallest information, and he had to die nine times because he did not know which method was the right choice.

But what if Jin was in the wrong place in the first place?

It was not just a roguelike game with no dreams or hopes in which you had to face the end in a reckless way and defeat it somehow, but a typical RPG game in which you could obtain clues to defeat the end if you followed a set ‘scenario’. What if?

And… What if this Nineveh was the place where the clues were obtained and the main stage of the story at the same time?

I was mistaken. In the first place, more than 100 years ago, a female junior whose name I can’t remember now recommended Jin to play this game, saying ‘the story is interesting’, and he should have noticed.

The fact that this dog-like world was not a rogue-like game only enjoyed by hipsters, but was actually a game based on school contents for teenage children to enjoy their youth.

“… Fuck.”

A sigh comes out. Of course, this is just Jin’s speculation, but if this speculation is really true, wouldn’t it mean that Jin has been shoveling around for the past hundred years?

No, should I be glad that I now know what the right path is?

If Erekaya hadn’t grabbed him by the collar, dragged him to Nineveh, and hadn’t tried this and that to seduce Erekaya at this point, she would never have been able to uncover these facts.

In the end, all clues point to only one answer.

Even in order to obtain the key to solve the current situation, and even in order to overcome the coming end.

… And, even to make her happy by enticing Erekaya according to her original goal.

It seemed that Jin had to follow her into the student council as recommended by Erekaya.

****

The girls’ dormitory, Erekaya’s room.

There, Erekaya was sitting in front of the mirror, staring blankly at her own face.

Light purple hair, eyes that look as if they were carved from jewels, and a beautiful face that is expressionless but at the same time has some kind of gentleness.

But at this moment, Erekaya wasn’t looking at her own face in the mirror, but she was thinking of a man.

“… do you look alike In some ways, it seems a bit similar.”

A man and a woman, black hair and light purple hair, a face that is slightly better than average no matter how good it is, and a face that can be called the pinnacle of beauty.

No matter how you look at it, there was nothing in common between the two, but Erekaya was engrossed in looking at her own face in the mirror and looking for traces of the man.

In fact, it didn’t matter even if there wasn’t a single resemblance. Because, at most, just because they didn’t resemble each other in appearance or appearance didn’t change the fact that they were family with him.

“family… .”

Yes. The two are family. Even though they have different genders, different appearances, and very different backgrounds and environments, Jin and Erekaya have a clear family relationship that no one can deny.

And that fact can be said to be a secret that only Erekah knows in this world.

Jin knows nothing. Although he was aware of the fact that his roots belonged to the Duke of Pendragon, at the same time, he did not seem to notice that Pendragon’s lineage ran through his veins.

… In fact, Erekaya was about to reveal the whole truth to him today.

In fact, we are one family. In fact, we are bound by bonds that cannot be separated but cannot be separated, and cannot be denied even if denied.

Although we are so distant that it is meaningless to count kinship, and it is difficult to find anything in common with each other, we are definitely one family.

But in the end, Erekaya hesitated to tell Jin the truth.

Again, like a coward, at the last moment I shut my mouth and threw it away.

The intrusion of Claire Delphine Mascarena into his dorm midway through was also one reason why she hesitated to tell the truth, but at the same time it wasn’t all.

Perhaps the result wouldn’t have changed even if Claire hadn’t barged into the room in the middle.

Erekaya was afraid.

I’m afraid he hates me I fear he will despise himself. And he… I was afraid that he would deny with his own mouth that he had a family relationship with him.

he has no family No, to be more precise, there is no one in the world who is connected to him in a family relationship at this moment.

‘At least he’s not in this world.’

The very words he spat out with a smile as if it were not a secret.

Even though she said it in a nonchalant way, Erekaya couldn’t even guess how much sadness and loneliness lurked inside.

Because, there was no way he could deny his happy image in a family photo with only one person saying nothing was wrong.

“…..”

Jin knows nothing. The fact that he actually inherited Pendragon’s lineage, and the fact that Jin and Erekaya are related as a family.

And… The fact that it was the Duke of Pendragon who was responsible for ruining all the happiness he should have enjoyed.

If he knew all this, what kind of eyes would he look at her?

Will I hate myself? or despise? Would you be disgusted with her for trying to deceive yourself even though you knew the whole truth?

In the end, Erekaya chose to run away rather than face the truth.

At the most critical moment, she became a coward.

That’s why Erekaya was thinking of bringing Jin into the student council.

Currently, Erekaya and Jin are not objectively in any relationship.

It is not placed between master and student like Altina, and it is not placed between them as they build up time for each other by eating together like Claire.

In the end, Erekaya had only one choice.

Building a completely new relationship, different from Altina and Claire, and monopolizing him within it.

The student council could be said to be such a perfect place.

If Jin joins the student council, he will inevitably have to spend a lot of time with Erekaya, the student council president.

If only we could have a lot of conversations with each other, build up memories, and become a relationship where we care for each other-

One day, wouldn’t he be able to forgive himself and become one family with him?

“… jin.”

As she stroked the mirror where only her image was reflected, Erekaya made a resolution to herself.

Jin, I will never give up on you. I don’t know when it will be, but I will definitely become one family with you.

and i-

I will definitely make you, the person you are, happy.
