Chapter 56: Extra: S2 Session Introduction

Extra : S2 Session Introduction

You will experience a different word. Remember, only humans remain unchanged in this place where culture, customs, architectural styles, and the rules of the world are different.

Survival is guaranteed. Even if you face death, it is not the end and you will return to the original world without a scratch.

You have only one objective. It is to secure the Shining Trapezohedron hidden somewhere in the world. It is a mystical relic known to summon evil beings and, on the other hand, provide infinite wisdom. However, activating it comes with a bit ofsacrifice.

There are plenty of opportunities and time. In addition, forgetting the goal and accumulating good experiences can also be considered the right way to enjoy this different world. It is fine not to achieve it. Do not feel pressured or burdened to do so.

Playtime Per Round : 2 hours (6 days)

Additional Objective : Secure the Shining Trapezohedron

The following content is the record of preliminary investigations by a collaborator.

We hope it helps you in your understanding of this world.

About the Stage :

I leave the first record. This is a strange civilization. The shape of the buildings is different and there is a huge difference in the concentration of mana in the atmosphere. This place is almost in a state of mana depletion. When I moved to the specified dimensional coordinates, the first place I opened my eyes to was a shabby back alley. It was full of bags made of a strange material, tied up with garbage inside.

I cut open a bag with a knife to check its contents. Something that seemed to be the peel of an unknown crop, a cylindrical object made of metal, tissue or newspaper, a dead cats carcass, and broken pieces of human bones. Besides these, there was nothing particularly noteworthy.

I moved warily, cautious of my first encounter with another life form. If it were a civilization hostile to external substances like the Spirit Realm, I would measure the risk level through combat and if it were below the Defense Bureaus Threat Grade 3, I would continue the exploration. If it was Grade 3, I would temporarily retreat, and if Grade 2, I would fully retreat; this was the principle of my action.

After about 5 minutes of walking, I left the back alleys. The buildings here are incredibly tall. The roads are very large and wide, covered with a black material and well-maintained. I witnessed a carriage without a horse. It seemed like an unmanned carriage that wealthy merchants or wizards sometimes use, but here, it appears to be utilized en masse as there were many of them.

I confirmed another life form. It appears to be human. Although I cannot verify the similarity in anatomical structure, it has all the common features of humans. They have two arms, two legs, five fingers on each hand, and are divided into male and female genders. They also have round ears.

Overall, the city is dominated by a grayish hue. The expressions of the people are gloomy and although their nutritional status seems good, there is no vitality in their eyes. I believe there is a possibility that they are being ruled by a tyrant.

Fortunately, the clothing of the people here is similar to that of the imperial capital. Suits and silk hats. Dresses. Various clothes made of fabric. As long as it is not too vulgar or scanty, one should be able to blend in naturally. The Academys uniform is no exception.

Except for the guards (They are called police here), most people do not carry weapons. Whether it is because the public order is good or it is legally prohibited is unknown. Further verification is needed. I will resume exploration after setting up a temporary base.

The following drawings depict the appearance of this strange civilization.



About the Stage :

I leave the second record. I have established a temporary base. The location is 201 Carter Street, on the 2nd Floor of the East Shopping Mall. I repeat. 201 Carter Street, East Shopping Mall, 2nd Floor. The items collected during the exploration will be hidden here.

I focused on investigating the social atmosphere.

Carrying weapons is permitted, but displaying them carelessly is prohibited. This part is the same as our world. From now on, instead of repeatedly mentioning the same parts, I will only describe the elements that are clearly different.

Mana can only be handled by a very select few individuals and magic is ostracized by society as a whole. Wizards are conflated with words like witches and devils. I consider that there is no problem in thinking of societys perception as similar to that of Black Wizards in our world.

Most citizens are powerless. However, those maintaining the citys order, as well as a part of the citizens, possess artifacts called guns, which fire projectiles. Their power ranges from Rock Arrow to Earths Awl.

Many religions are mixed together. The corruption of their believers is considered severe compared to our world. Scandals involving church ministers (Clergy) are openly circulating and citizens views on religion are extremely polarized. Since our religion is considered heretical to them, it is recommended not to disclose it.

Among them, there are groups that are considered cults, worshiping inappropriate gods or even evil deities. There are even bizarre rumors circulating about them capturing young children to use as burnt offerings, which has led to a very negative perception.

The emotions that were typically expressed consisted of awe, overwhelmed, and fear.

During the investigation, it was determined that the man adorned with many necklaces was the religious leader of the Order of the Silver Twilight.

Most of the vagrants in the back alleys seem to be affiliated with the Silver Twilight. It is believed that hypnotic magic and other forms have been actively used to control them. It is because the citys people have no interest in the impoverished.

The stigmas being engraved throughout the city are speculated to be their doing. The effects of these have yet to be uncovered.

About the Stage (Battle Record) :

Attempted to infiltrate the Order of the Silver Twilights building.

Confirmed the presence of detained civilians. Attempted rescue.

Discovered. Started battle. Shot five cultists to death.

Acquired information from a civilian. Confirmed the existence of a basement in the Orders building.

Attempted escape with the use of a vehicle. Entrusted the rescued civilian with driving.

Shot an additional seven cultists to death.

Initiated battle with the religious leader who chased after.

===============================================================

After quietly reading the Session Introduction that was completed with Pink-Haired Lesbians help, she pointed to the last part, where it abruptly ended, and asked.

Why did you erase the latter contents?

Because its too much of a spoiler. It would be no fun if they knew everything from the start.

You seem to be filled with the idea of creating trials and ordeals. There certainly does seem to be much to gain. After all, there is no need to worry about losing their lives

Pink-Haired Lesbian spoke with her eyes. Still, is it right to push students into such a place?

Of course, its fine. This was a TRPG and I was a kind GM who didnt like to see players suffer. The thrill of a horror experience where a giant octopus appears was not about the player freaking out and going crazy. Instead, there was meaning in them overcoming such challenges.

I was going to be there, helping them out with all my effort from behind.

And I had no intention of urging them with something like Kehehehe, youve already registered, so you must go no matter what!. I was going to show them the Session Introduction and ask them to think about it by saying, Its gonna have this kinda vibe. Do you have any thoughts of trying it out?.

If the response was lukewarm, I was willing to come up with something new.

However, considering that the students growth was the goal, I didnt think a mere Hahahoho virtual experience would suffice for training, so I planned to keep the fact that it was all Illusion Magic a secret for now.

If it seemed like the players were having too hard a time, it wouldnt be too late to reveal that it was actually all Illusion Magic then.

.

I guess I did need to reveal to Pink-Haired Lesbian one day that this was all Illusion Magic. Then Pink-Haired Lesbian would report it to the higher-ups. And following that, maybe the Second Prince, who had been stubbornly delusional, would wake up from the illusion and fuck me up with a dropkick.

And so, because of that, I decided to keep it a secret. It was with a heavy heart that I did so, kinda like hiding a test paper that only received a grade of 20%.

I organized the introduction and invited the three lecture applicants to my office. Ill need to have a discussion with /genesisforsaken
