There is Something Wrong with This Game

Chapter E002 – Take All Exams at Once

[Kyoto - Ruri's Residence]

Still in the same city but in a different area and a different morning.

After doing overtime work on barrier node reactivation last night, Ruri took a rest and just woke up still feeling sleepy. The alarm clock worked as it should and woke her up at 6am.

"Oh, it's already morning..."

During overtime last night, it turned out that Hecate's 2 skills, Mana Clone (Lv3) and Spell Remote Activation (Lv2), suddenly leveled up to Lv4 and Lv3 respectively.

This resulted in the number of clones that could be created increasing from 3 to 4 and the connection distance to the clones also increasing, causing the armor mass production process, which was initially estimated to take a maximum of 3.5 hours, could actually be completed almost 1 hour faster.

Then, the mass production process completed and Hecate could fully focus on reactivating the barrier nodes.

The process of reactivating the node was actually not difficult and did not take too long, maybe only around ten minutes for each reactivation. The process that took more time and energy was the traveling process, where she had to navigate through a thick, poisonous fog (no effect), while avoiding fights with wandering monsters.

Fortunately, Hecate has the Fast Travel skill which allows her to teleport to the node that she has reactivated, and this skill makes the travel process very easy for her.

But still, she was unable to reactivate all the barrier nodes.

This was because of the 108 existing nodes, 23 of them are in a condition where they cannot be reactivated. Some of the walls at these nodes were destroyed and there were even craters that damaged the ground foundations where the walls stood. There are even some places where the walls cross some dungeons that seem to have been formed a long time ago.

To reactivate them, it was necessary to subjugate the dungeon involved and repair the location first.

But this can wait for another time.

Initially, after 12 pm, Hecate consecutive login timer was reset so she had plenty of time and she had planned to finish reactivating the nodes in one go. However, because this happened, she could only rest and sleep until morning.

Back to the present.

After waking up from her Capsule Pod, Ruri did her morning routine as usual.

She had a quick breakfast with a summoned sandwich, masturing, cleaned herself up, went to the living room, fed Kuu, and did some naked taichi(lol) moves.

As usual, the Aura Breathing method didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever on Ruri. Even now, despite doing what was written in the book correctly, Ruri didn't feel any difference or anything special happening to her.

Was it because her loli body was completely muggle and not a Native of the Ascension world?

Or maybe, the game was actually just a game and the methods from there couldn't be used in reality?

Maybe what Ruri had just done was a waste of time, but she still didn't want to jump to any hasty conclusions, at least until she moved out and tried again in a new house later.

I must be missing something important here, but I don't know what it is." (Ruri)

"Kweeh?" (Kuu)

"No, it's nothing... Don't worry about it." (Ruri)

Still, even if this Aura Breathing method really didn't bring any effect to her, it didn't actually matter. At most she would just be a little disappointed, and that would be all. There will be no losses whatsoever, except a little wasted time and energy.

Ruri let out a sigh and stopped her futile attempt.

Rather than getting involved in uncertain things, it would be better for her to do something more meaningful.

She suddenly remembered that in two days she would take her final high school exam which lasted a week, and she had an idea that she wanted to do.

"Ah, yes... I can still do that."

Without further ado, she immediately returned to her room and dived into the Kyoto Academy VR-Space.

[Kyoto Academy VR-Space: Teacher's Office - MN|27794]

Thirty minutes later.

Morino Naoki, 34 years old, one of the teachers who teaches at the high school section of Kyoto Academy looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression.

Just a few minutes ago he suddenly received a consultation request message from one of his students.

This student was one of the many students who chose to learn through virtual space rather than learning face to face in a classroom in the real world. Furthermore, the last time this student had a record of ever setting foot in the school was around 2 years ago.

Of course, this was not a problem, but this kind of learning model is still not recommended for students before college.

The reason was, dependence on virtual diving technology was considered to have quite bad consequences because users did not move their bodies while diving, causing poor muscle development. Apart from that, this technology is also considered to provide quite a heavy burden for the brain development of minors, especially if they also use their brains for learning.

But still, you can't ignore the convenience of VR-Space, where distance is not a problem, digital recording that allows reviewing past lessons at anytime, and the presence of a simulation system that make learning experiments such as anatomical surgery, chemistry, and so on, becomes easy and risk-free.

No accidents, no injuries, and no material consumption, except for electricity and server maintenance costs.

Therefore, basically there are virtual classes, but before students can take part, they have to make an application first and they are only allowed to take part but not too long, maybe only one to three classes in VR-Space every week, and the rest are classes with physical meetings in the real world.

But of course there are exceptions, if they are based on reasonable reasons.

This loli girl in front of her, who never seemed to grow up and still a loli, was reportedly suffering from a chronic illness that prevented her from leaving the house. But still, this girl's intention to study and complete her education cannot be underestimated and deserves to be appreciated.

This could be seen from this girl's academic report card, which although not the best, can still be said to be brilliant.

"Are you sure you want to take the exams now? All at once?" (Naoki)

"Yes, I don't know if I'm still healthy and can attend the exam on the next two days and the following days." (Ruri)

"So it would be better if you are currently in good health, do everything at once, is this what you mean?" (Naoki)

"Yes, that's right." (Ruri)

Naoki couldn't help but frown but what this girl said made sense.

Of course, if another student applied to take the exam early, especially all at once, he would comment that this student was arrogant and he would not necessarily grant it. But for this girl who was stricken by a chronic illness, tomorrow's health was really not something that could be guaranteed.

And worst case... oh, he didn't want to think about it.

Besides, perhaps what she said wasn't just empty talk.

Other people might be overwhelmed if they have to take exams in all their courses, but for special curriculum students, the courses are actually focused on one path that is all interrelated. With this girl's academic report, taking exams for all these subjects might not be a big deal.

After thinking it over carefully, Naoki reluctantly agreed.

"Okay then, I will approve to your request, but you have to turn on your health indicator. Just to let you know, if your health indicator is below 50, then I would immediately cancel the test and contact the hospital." (Naoki)

"Thank you, teacher." (Ruri)

The girl smiled and expressed her thanks after hearing Naoki's words.

Naoki just patted the girl's head and lamented the suffering of the loli who had a strong determination to study but was not blessed with a healthy body, without realizing the loli's smile had turned into a grin.
