This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!

Chapter 346 338: What Happened?!

?

I woke up in my room, searing pain coursing through my entire body.

"Oh! You're up, Eugy!"

"Ahh…."

I was having a hard time breathing, let alone trying to understand what was going on. It seemed I was in my room…?

Nope.

"An unfamiliar ceiling…"

"Do you make references like that all the time?"

When I turned my head to the side, I noticed my good old brown-haired friend, the Rizzler.

"I try."

"I thought you didn't play games or watch anime, how?"

"My sister had a phase, she only talked in references. Everything was GioGio."

"Everything still is."

"So? Battle Royale day?"

"That was last week."

Oh hell. What now?

"I don't remember it at all."

Albert nodded at my words. "Of course, you don't. Can you get up?"

I slowly rolled off the bed and wobbled upright. Though it pained a lot to even try to walk, the pain was the last thing I didn't know. Such things could be ignored with willpower alone.

Still, my muscles were too weak so I took Albert's help and got off the bed.

He slowly carried me along to the window and showed me the sight of the city outside.

The academy city…

In the very center, away from the mountains and the volcanoes, neat to the seas and the trees, below the flying archipelago. Amid all the dungeons, smack dab on the origin.

A giant statue of me posing stood tall.

"What the fuck happened?"

At that moment, I narrowed my eyes and saw a bunch of people throwing tomatoes and eggs at it.

"No seriously what the fuck happened!?"

"Good game, Yuyu. I won that round since you resigned."

"What even happened?!"

Albert only patted my back and walked away.

What happened!!!

***

It took me a few more days to get back to class. Keith and the others kept telling me to not step out and pretty much everyone visited once, including the FOnias twins and my siblings.

Lethe even spent a night with me so I was quite happy about that.

After a long, I managed to recover for the most part and returned to class. In all, two weeks had passed since the end of the weeklong tournament which was held a week after the beginning of class. So I had just one more week left before we had to leave for the East for all our appointments.

"Still, what do you think caused this?"

I asked Titania as we returned from our morning session with Rio and head off to the academy.

"I kept telling you to rest but you didn't listen. Then like an animal, you even went to every woman you knew."

"So the spirits? First, they get me drunker than ever and then they even mess with me like this? And to top it off, once I am normal they all avoid me."

I could still see spirits, and I could naturally also still see the little critters running away from me like idiots.

I tried to grab a few of them but they all ran away like smug bastards.

I was going to kill these bastards.

"You better be careful, Eugy," said Titania. "Do you know why this was lost from humans?"

"Why?"

"The spirits once became so obsessed with a spirit magician that they killed every other to make her special."

"Huh."

"And when they weren't satisfied, they decided to make her a spirit too. The water spirit lord Undine is still roaming at large."

"Is that so…"

If these guys got obsessed with me to that degree then I would be pretty fucked as well. I wanted to avoid that fate for now.

I made the turn to the class.

And other than the same old people, everyone was clicking their tongues at me now.

"Tsk. Here comes the spoilsport."

"Ruined the entire tournament."

"It was cool as hell though. Also, do you want to be impaled with his statues?"

"Like we get it, he's strong, but can't he tone it down a bit?"

"Show off bastard."

"Don't you remember? He's the tyrant of the library, don't you remember!?"

That I was.

It seemed my hard-earned demon-slayer reputation was gone now. I simply got to the back of the seats and saw an extra person on our spot.

It was none other than Marissa from Pinot.

"Hello there, Lord Eugene."

I made a frame with my hands then gave her a thumbs up, her sitting right next to Albert. The two guys frowned while she laughed and blushed.

I didn't miss the thumbs up she returned from behind his back though.

I was going to wingman them so hard, and I didn't even talk to this girl beyond thumbs-ups yet. Still, I trusted everyone with drill curls.

"Luka get here. You're telling me everything about the event."

"What? Ask Albert, I don't even wanna talk—"

I pumped my brows.

I have no idea if he understood or not, but did get up and walk over.

Albert was cursing us under his breath, I could tell.

Not long after, Irina came into the class and stretched her hands above her head.

"Oh look who's here again. Feeling happy with that giant hated statue in the city? We can't even break it for some reason."

"It's called tyranny."

"Did you have to impale the principal of the Volkash academy through it? Don't you get that he is old?"

Everyone shook their head.

WHAT HAPPENED THERE!!

"Alright, whatever. You guys, next week we'll be going on the first field trip in association with the adventurers' guild HQ and our sister academy in the east."

Now was the time to go and capture the last half of this kingdom.

"We'll be diving into the most dungeons that you will ever get to. And under supervision from adventurers at that, how lucky is that?"

"Heh unlucky as hell."

"Of course, our in-house platinum rank will be helping out the adventurers too. You won't be joining as a student, and you'll also be paid."

"Let's leave now!"

Money!

Jokes aside.

The time to move things ahead was here.

I wondered how I would look with horns next.
