Free Life ~Record of the Struggle of a Different World General Merchant~

"What? A student who was able to defeat" Alter Ego, "says he's not out yet? What have you been up to these past two weeks, you guys?"

Time for a weekly lecture by the owners of the kingdom's best brains. Returning to Eru, who asks how he defeated the Lord of the School Labyrinth, was the answer: "No one has yet been defeated". To this, Eru is frightened.

The Royal School of Gran Feria is a training institution for young people who are at the heart of the country. Naturally, we have young but talented people. Besides, she's in charge of an elite class. That's how they say it's not even two weeks enough to defeat a demon that has no other love if you try it for her.

Is there a shortage of people with qualities, or is there another decline in the quality of education? Either way, it was too much to worry about the fate of the country.

Eru came out of the basement of the National Library on this day to teach about the efficient defeat of the BOSS "Alter Ego" at the bottom of the school labyrinth. Efficiently defeating demons that copy not only the status of those confronted, but even memories and personalities, means finding more weaknesses in the objectified self and poking them there quickly.

Considering this to be unparalleled as a workout, Eru was the subject of recent research on how to streamline the process. A few days ago, I was finally able to compile theories and methodologies that I could convince myself of, and that's why I came all the way out here to teach the students and try to bump into each other's opinions.

That's right, but from the subject's mouth, he said, "I haven't been able to take him down yet. I don't even know how to knock him down," he said, adding that if he lost his shoulder blush, he couldn't help but have a headache for the immaturity of the young man.

"Why can't you defeat that much demon? Since March, I have heard that I have been learning about demons of modelling and imitation abilities in many lectures. What do you mean you didn't use it in action?

The students have complex feelings about Elu, who wonders why they can't do what is normal.

It is a rebellion against her that unfolds the "theory of those who can," an admiration or praise for those who treat demons "to such an extent" that they cannot defeat them, or a fear caused by being scolded for not being able to do this either... all sorts of emotions and thoughts come to mind and mix together.

Eru goes on to say words against them who will be pushed to silence without being able to say anything as a result.

"Have you read K.J. Ortet's" The Great Demon "? What about Sir Brom's" Discussions on the Ability to Simulate and Mimic "? In the first place, you shouldn't be in this country, such as the one who hasn't read" Angelo Adventure Tan, the brave man "whose first battle with" Alter Ego "becomes a big mountain ground. How did they teach you how to deal with Alter Ego? Emile, answer me."

Eru seems to be a researcher at the Royal Library, naming several books and papers. And then you call the right student names and make them give you answers to the questions. This is her basic form of class, and the nominated student is used to it, and she immediately stands up and gives the answer.

"Yes, Doctor. They consistently say," We need the wisdom and strength to beat ourselves. "

Emile answers sayingly, not showing trouble with sudden questions about just elite classes on boulders and lack of daily study. Still, when Eru urged him to take his seat, he showed relief.

Is my response sufficient as what the best lady in the kingdom seeks? The anxiety and tension were a common mood for many students who preceded Eru.

"Emile, as you said earlier. How to deal with" Alter Ego, "it's about acquiring" the wisdom and power to beat yourself ""

"Wait, Doctor. I think that's fundamentally a mistake."

"Mm, Abel, is that you? Good, let's forgive the speech."

The one who raised his voice here was Abel, who was the best brainiac in S-class. He speaks out loudly that the way to deal with it is bullshit.

"A demon with the ability to copy mimics status, right? And even" alter ego "copies personality and memory. In other words, even if you acquire" the wisdom and power to beat yourself, "you will be photographed just as you are, making no sense. Because of this, I believe that the content written by teachers and research books is false."

Several students agree to this. Whether you read a book, fish or talk to anyone, all you get is the words "you need the wisdom and strength to beat yourself".

With that in mind, no matter who you fight, you can't win the Alter Ego alone. I could also say that it was not impossible for them to lean their necks on the advice of their forefathers.

But Eru denies what they say like that. It's like, just saying it's toddler bullshit.

"You haven't studied enough. That is an opinion that was also out when research was started on modelling and mimicry abilities, but which, instead of gaining a lot of support, has quickly been eliminated. Don't tell me you can't even be stupid. Do you have any idea why?

"... no"

Abel, who was totally denied "foolishness" by distancing his remarks based on his own experience, does not immediately come up with any new ideas. He's the only one who shakes his head with a bitter face, but he doesn't even speak up from the students who tuned in to him. Looking around at them like that, Eru throws further questions.

"You think it doesn't make sense to be strong, because they're also stronger for that matter? So, what do you mean you keep losing to Alter Ego, who is on the same terms as the confronting ones? Look, there are always strengths and weaknesses there beyond winning and losing. To mask the difference, we need wisdom and strength to beat ourselves. There may seem to be a lack of words for you guys right now, but I'll realize it if I can defeat his demons. That this short sentence contains elements for the defeat of" alter ego "without indispensable"

Here, Eru packed the bags he had placed on the lecture floor and tried to get out of the classroom. Students who rush to stop it. As yet, class time is not even half past. Yet for what reason do we leave ourselves?

"Why stop? I've come to plan a class on the assumption that you're defeating Alter Ego. What does that mean to you right now? What you will do now is defeat" Alter Ego "." We need wisdom and strength to beat ourselves ". Advice would be enough if only this... Hmm, but sometimes you try to be a teacher"

So I cut the words, put my hands on my mouth and think something elu.

"Well... if you chew it up and say it," Wisdom and power to beat yourself "is something individual and different. As a matter of course, there seem to be a lot of people out there who don't understand. And some people mistake wisdom or power for status, right? I don't think it's impossible to think of your skills and status as everything when you're young. But that's not the only thing that shapes the fight. With this in mind, by this time next week you will have defeated" Alter Ego ""

Eru said this to the students after a lot of thought, and now it's really after the classroom.

(Not a skill, not a status "power"...... that's courage!!

With that in mind, Valerie threw down a large shield and a long sword in front of "Alter Ego," pulling out enough lance to exceed her height from the "extended space pochette" she had attached to her belt.

"Will it come? Fine. '

"Alter Ego" against Valerie, who drops his hips and sets up a spike spear, took out Lance in the same way. [Item Copy] For demons even equipped, it doesn't matter if the enemy tries to change their gains. Just copy it the same and set it up the same way.

But Valerie is also woven into such things. Wait for your enemies to be ready without poking at them when replacing weapons.

There's only one thing he wants. It's just about squarely bumping into each other from the front.

(My body has the blood of a knight flowing from my ancestors... that's courage. It's a crystal of proud vows to protect the people and defeat the enemy in distress)

Red Aura rises from his body due to her ability to improve her physical abilities [Aus of Night]. It mixes with the "Alter Ego" aura that activated the same skill, dyeing the room in thin red will disappear.

Now his copy is chivalrous and full of temper to defeat the enemy in front of him. That's ideal. Valerie wanted to be a knight at an early age.

It wasn't when he first visited here during the lowest level BOSS. The rigour, the heaviness that the knight should be equipped with, was somewhere short, and a man appeared before him who seemed lighter than the face of the Knights.

"That's a bad imitation," says Alter Ego, in front of Valerie, who scoffs. "I'm you. It's the manifestation of your chronic mind. If I look miserable, you are the same '.

Valerie, furiously exasperated by this word, was well embellished by "alter ego," and defeated without being able to bathe a single machete.

From there, his agonizing night continues. Days of tearing away no matter how many times you try...... it's still the word "alter ego" that comes back to life behind his brain when he's exhausted and dives into bed. Especially, the phrase "it's your chronic manifestation" was pierced in the chest after hearing it many times, and after sweating fat each time, he turned back to sleep.

It was a picture star. "Alter Ego" has shown off his ugly parts without any hiding. Having taken the seat of the elite class deputy, he was somewhere satisfied there, and recently also remembered to drink and play with women, either because of his aversion to his days of training and training.

I also remembered to lose my hand. Similar results can be achieved even out of hand only by the holders of excellent talent. That would have made him think somewhere in his mind that he could have taken more out of his hands. It's a path to moderate corruption.

It was with that background that I rode the devil's invitation in the garden of the school one day.

That's a long way from the knight statue he had in mind. That's why I got mad at the "alter ego" that shows it off. "That can't be who I am!," as if there had been no decadence of its own.

But after many defeats, he has come to find another meaning in defeating "Alter Ego". Do not deny your pitiful parts by defeating the copy. It's even about swallowing the fact that you're about to come off chivalry and grow into one upper chivalry.

In the last trial of the School Labyrinth, he found such meaning.

To do that, I can't stay who I am right now. Strong, strong. Your mind and body must be strong. There must be no such thing as wandering into a mirror image in front of you. Rather, we must take pride in its appearance, which embodies not only the ugliness of the self, but also the ideals equally.

"That's because it's me". Valerie thought so.

"Let's go OOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

An assault with a lance. I don't do small work. It's just an assault running straight through the line.

Pull the tail of a red aura into a small room, and the two shadows intersect.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!!!'

I don't defend. Think only of squeezing the long spear pattern firmly with both hands and tapping a blow with all the momentum of your body into the enemy's steeple.

Still, the first shot came off. No, they took it off. As a result of "Alter Ego" changing the orbit of Valerie's lance with the lance in hand, the two ran through to the wall without hitting either side.

'... what happened? It's not like me, the way you do it.

"Alter Ego" gives a puzzling look for the first time. There was no such thing as an attack that abandoned the defense in this way in the combat pattern he copied.

Being a "paladin," he should be good at preventing enemy attacks with a big shield. That should be the basic form that never changes, even if the score changes. That being the case, even "alter ego" who copied his thoughts, such as defense and other ways he wouldn't even think about it, didn't know why.

"I just remembered because of you. Knight's blood. Look like a knight."

'... nice face. Fine, me. Call me.'

"Even if you don't tell me!

Two more Lance. Long spears, originally used on horses, have the power to strike even single-handedly operations by virtue of their high stats and the power of buffs that improve them.

That's why the battle is quick to follow. The moment they bump into each other... that's when winning or losing is decided.

"Ohhhhh!!!!

'Ohhhhhhh!!!!

Two people running out to poke and move their bodies into the mood of tearing.

Then, in the middle between the BOSS, the same timing, aimed at the same spot, slammed the lances from body to body.

"... mine, win"

'... no, it's a draw'

"Right... right..."

To pierce the breasts of the two, each other's lance. The lives of the two fatally wounded were just about to be fulfilled now. But it's how the school labyrinth works that doesn't allow it. Valerie's life trying to close her eyelids was magically reconnected and forcibly returned to the entrance.

Later, there will be an "alter ego" with a wind hole in his chest.

The Lord of the School Labyrinth grinned on his face, smashing it into particles of magic vegetables and disappearing.

(d) Fifteenth challenge. For the first time in all school years, Valerie got a "draw" against "Alter Ego".
