“Professor Mornye?”
Rover looked doubtfully toward Mornye, who had walked in front of her.
Compared to Rover’s doubt, Ryuji from the bottom of his heart felt that the other party completely did not look like a professor.
In this fantastical world, being a bit short in stature did not matter.
What Ryuji mainly felt was that the other party’s personality was a bit too introverted.
“Do, do I not look like a professor?”
Hearing the doubtful expression appear on Rover, Mornye immediately revealed an anxious appearance.
Regarding this, Rover immediately raised a hand and lightly waved it, while also shaking her head.
Watching this scene from the side, Ryuji found it a bit comical.
Like two big cats.
One longing to prove herself in front of the other, while the other was afraid of hurting the other party’s self-esteem.
“I will take you to engrave the tapes.”
Seeming to feel that her statement just now had lost some dignity, Mornye immediately rearranged her facial expression.
Regarding this, after exchanging a glance, Ryuji and Rover followed after her.
On the way to engrave the tapes, Mornye explained to Ryuji and Rover the abnormal phenomenon that had suddenly appeared just now.
“What you saw just now were the memories of the Academy’s former teachers, staff, and students. This is something that occasionally occurs.”
What Mornye was narrating were the memories of other people that had previously appeared in the minds of Ryuji and Rover.
On the way, Mornye began introducing the tapes to Ryuji and Rover.
“Lahai-Roi has always been under the shroud of the Void Threnodian, so we invented the tapes in order to allow those swallowed by the Void Matter Magnetic Storm to leave behind their Frequency and the memories from when they were alive.”
Listening to Mornye’s introduction, the image of a coffin floated up in Ryuji’s mind.
Carrying something that recorded one’s entire life on one’s person—listening to it was somewhat bleak.
As if the students here could die in the next moment because of external elements.
Those enveloped by the Void Matter Magnetic Storm, from the sound of it, would ultimately only leave behind this one tape.
Thinking this, Ryuji looked toward the side.
Some tapes were placed on the wall, with names written underneath.
They were probably left behind by people who had already died—one of the few proofs that they had once lived.
“Alright, up ahead is the engraving room.”
Under Mornye’s guidance, Ryuji and Rover saw the cylindrical room up ahead formed by a transparent glass cover.
“You go first. I’ll look at the scenery outside a bit more.” Ryuji spoke.
Even though he was a transmigrator, he felt that compared to Rover, he could not be considered any kind of capable person.
Ryuji felt that he was originally just a small character who had gotten lucky by stepping in dog shit.
“Mm.”
Rover did not stand on too much ceremony with Ryuji.
After lightly nodding, she walked toward the engraving room.
Along this entire journey she had become considerably more familiar with Ryuji.
There was no need for that mutual polite yielding.
Click—
Most of the researchers were frowning as they desperately tinkered with the data in front of them.
As for Mornye…
Ryuji discovered that the other party was looking with a face full of concern at Rover inside the engraving room.
This was not an expression that should appear upon a first meeting.
Combined with the earlier familiar feeling that Doctor Luuk had shown toward Rover…
They should have known each other in the past, but why did Rover act as if she completely did not understand them and this Startorch Academy?
Click—
At this moment, the engraving of the tape belonging to Rover was completed.
She walked out from inside with a somewhat dazed expression.
During this, she looked with some doubt toward Mornye, who was currently locking eyes with her.
This blank expression looked like a deer.
“Do you need to rest for a while?” Ryuji walked forward and asked.
“No need…”
Seeing Rover shake her head, Ryuji glanced at Mornye behind her.
“Then you go over to Professor Mornye. Her insight is definitely higher than mine. She can see the problems on your body.” As Ryuji spoke, he walked toward the engraving room.
Asking Rover was only because he felt that as a friend he should do so.
That was all.
Click—
The tape in front of him fell into the groove, and the disc inside began to slowly rotate.
After that, Ryuji watched as the research institute before his eyes disappeared, and then the scene that appeared was things that had happened in his past.
To be honest, Ryuji himself felt there was nothing worth looking at.
If he were to describe it himself, it would probably be a boring life.
A family that was neither rich nor poor, pursuing academics, yet the result was only mediocre.
In the end, because he felt lost about the future, he immersed himself in the online world.
If it were not for the sudden car accident and the transmigration that occurred, Ryuji felt that his life would probably have remained this boring until the end.
No. Even after transmigrating to another world, he did not feel that he would accomplish anything great.
He was originally not someone with great desires.
The things he wanted to see had all been satisfied on the internet.
In this instant, he felt that he had wasted the ticket to another world.
Hum—
After that, the scene turned, and he once again arrived in the familiar pitch-black space.
This was the place where that goddess resided.
“Yo.”
Looking at the goddess in front of him greeting him, Ryuji confirmed that this was not a memory.
After all, the other party was a goddess.
Ryuji would not find it strange even if she had this ability.
“Suddenly pulling me over, what’s the matter? Do you feel that my performance was too boring?” Ryuji simply sat down on the ground.
To be honest, toward this “benefactor” who had thrown him into another world, he did not have the slightest bit of respect.
After all, the other party had nearly caused him to fall to his death.
“It was indeed very boring~ I had originally wanted to watch some good show, such as you being treated as an invader by Startorch Academy or something. In the end you were actually protected by that Rover~”
Toward the end, that goddess sighed.
“But it doesn’t matter either. You’ve only been on Solaris for less than a day. Afterward there will still be many fun things waiting for you.”
Listening to these words of the goddess, Ryuji’s brows furrowed.
At this point he could be considered to know what kind of thing this goddess was.
A rotten person.
And since this kind of person said that there would be fun things later, then for him it would definitely be unfavorable things.
“This time is also a special situation that allows me to speak with you. The next meeting will wait until after you die. Bye-bye~”
“Wait!”
As that goddess waved a hand, Ryuji hurriedly wanted to stop the other party.
He still wanted to ask the other party questions related to the Threnodians, and why this fellow could so easily stuff Cursed Energy and techniques into him.
But before Ryuji had finished speaking, he discovered that the scene before his eyes had once again returned to the scene of the engraving room.
Click—
After picking up the tape that belonged to him, Ryuji walked toward the place where Rover and Mornye were.
“Mm, the content engraved on this student’s tape is normal.”
As Ryuji approached, the researcher in charge of the tape content let out a breath of relief.
That goddess’s methods were truly remarkable.
Looking at it this way, his past life should have been altered to some extent in the eyes of that researcher.
But listening to that researcher’s words, had some problem occurred with Rover’s tape?
Thinking this, Ryuji looked toward Rover and Mornye.
They seemed to have just finished discussing something.
“Alright. Since Student Ryuji has also come out, I will explain a bit more regarding the functions of the tape.”
Seeing Ryuji walk over, Mornye began introducing it to both him and Rover.
“The tape has the functions of giving advance warning of the arrival of a Void Matter Magnetic Storm, and slightly resisting the influence of a Void Matter Magnetic Storm.”
After speaking, seeming to have recalled something, this short professor immediately began to supplement.
“Of course, this does not mean that with the tape you can casually charge into a Void Matter Magnetic Storm. Safety first.”
Looking at the serious appearance of this short professor, both Ryuji and Rover couldn’t help but smile and agree with the other party.
But Ryuji himself did not feel that he would charge into such a dangerous place.
“Professor Mornye! Where are you right now?! Doctor Anselm! Please calm down a little!”
Just at this moment, an urgent voice came from the earpiece on Mornye’s body.
It sounded like someone was contacting her.
