We spent 1 day at the Academy, Hana is researching the summoning circle with Sia. She is now in the library comparing information from books to what Sia tells her.
“How is everything going Hana?”- I am sitting in our room. Fumiko pulled some strings and had us put in a room together, it’s good that we don’t have outside interference here.
“Well, not as good. The information in these books is mostly incorrect. There is some truth about it, but most of them are fake information. For example, it is said that people have an affinity for 1 or 2 and at most 3 elements and they can’t cast spells that are not from their element. This is fake, everyone can cast magic of any element, even shadow magic, it still can be cast without any skill or affinity, you only need to focus more on that element you want to cast”- I didn’t know they were teaching this to our cssmates here. Well, not that it will matter.
!There are multiple summoning circles at the Academy. There are a few that were newly built in the period you two were in the Nation of Monsters. Your safest bet will be the summoning circle in the library. In 5 days all students will have a study session in this room of the academy, this session is special and is only held for otherworlder students. You can get all of them in the summoning circle then. Until then, you 2 have to change the student's mind on the war against monsters and demons, well, Hana has to. Since she chose to describe you as a non-verbal person!
“I heard it, Sia. I will try. Hikaru, you can do some spying for us. We need information, maybe you can infiltrate some of the school facilities? The school is supporting the war, I have a feeling this is just a pce to train soldiers for a war.”- I think our cssmates have figured it out too. Summoned to another world but they are used as means to an end in some sick war.
“Sia, I don’t understand what justification they have to wage war against the monster race. What am I talking about? I get it in a way, but I don’t want to be wrong about it”- Thinking about it too much doesn’t help.
!The main reason is something you refer to in your world as racism, in concept, the hatred against monsters is the same as hatred of people of a different race in your world for the same reasons. Remember that this information was compiled from what you knew from your previous world. In this world the main reasons for the hatred are religious, here monsters are seen as evil or sinful, demi-humans are still a grey area, but they are mostly despised in almost every country. There are secondary reasons for the hatred against monsters, one of them having monsters misunderstood, and humans invading their territories and destroying them, some peaceful species will accept and move somewhere else, but however some warrior monster species are more reluctant and might fight the decision of the humans. That’s the conflict for short, although not all conflicts have the same causes, these are the most common ones that I could find!
“Thanks for the info, Sia. I will get going now. I will see what I can find in this school”
I got up from my bed and walked to the faculty room, or the teachers' room as they call it here. Both the dorm and the school itself have teacher rooms in them. Hana already has the library but not the teachers' room. I waited a little bit, I pretended to read a book that I brought with me. Today is a semi-free day with fewer csses than they usually have. Some teachers exited the room to go teach the lower css, or how they refer to them as commoner csses and noble csses, they refer to the otherworlder csses and “The Hero csses”, we are in the same hero csses as them but on special condition, I won’t go too much into detail, but I let the teachers leave and let my shadow tendrils to the rest of the work, it would be too convenient if they can read as well, but I can sense if someone is there, I made sure no one was there first, after that, I snatched a few documents, well, I snatched everything that I could find. The teachers will notice the document as missing, but they are in my spatial storage, or however it is now.
“Sia, can you analyze them?”- Will she be able to do that in a short amount of time?
!Of course, I can do it in under a minute, you grabbed a lot of papers from there, that’s the maximum amount of time you should expect from me, somewhere around 50 to 45 seconds to analyze everything there!
“Hana, I got the documents, I will make sure Sia will send you all the information she got from them to you as well. Did you find anything new about the Academy?”
“Not really. I found the magic circle Sia was talking about, it’s in the forbidden section of the library. I found out from the librarian that the Hero css has free access to this section of the library. I have an idea of how to get them all in the circle, the circle looks like it can hold a lot of people at once, the circle is the whole forbidden section to be precise, it stops at the bookshelves. The forbidden section is like a cube with bookshelves at each side and the magic circle in the middle”
“Thank you, Hana. Now, we need to wait for them to go there, we can’t rush them there, it will only cause trouble for us. But how do we deal with the teachers?”- Dealing with them might be our main issue, they will be our witnesses to this and can inform King Wieka about the summoning circle being active.
“I already came up with a pn, I have my skills you know. I can use my mind control skill on them and make them leave us there with them.”
“I like the pn. Until then we shall continue to scour the academy for more information”
