I Became an Extra Who Died Instead of the Main Character - Chapter 52
52 – Fear
It’s not that the atmosphere in the health room has been good for the past week.
The atmosphere of the people who came to see Lian, who hadn’t woken up, was always gloomy.
Adele, Tinia, Philip, Lapis and more. Because all the people who visited stayed by Lian’s side, regretting the things they could have done but couldn’t.
The atmosphere in the health room was always in a state of slump, pickled with regret from the people who visited.
However.
“······Is that true?”
The dark and muddy feeling currently being felt in the health room.
Worst of the past week. Even worse than the day Lian fell.
Tinia Ailander dared to think so.
“······Student Lian … Is experiencing her memory loss?”
The first to speak was Principal Lapis.
“······When Lian Kindred woke up, I and Tinia Elander were by her side, but they didn’t seem to recognize me at all.”
At the gloomy report from the health teacher, Principal Lapis’ expression hardened even more.
The expressions of the other people, including Tinia, who were listening to the conversation became even more serious.
“Then…Then Lian…She doesn’t remember anything?”
I hear Adele’s trembling voice.
As if to prove that she had been stuck in the library without taking a proper break, there were dark circles around her eyes.
The silver hair, which was always shiny, was frizzy as if it hadn’t been washed properly for several days.
“Listonia student. The student doesn’t seem to be feeling well right now.
There was no way the health teacher at Selenium Academy wouldn’t have noticed that, and she encouraged her to lie down on her bed and get some rest.
“I… How do I rest?”
“····.”
Adele, whose eyes had already begun to flow, did not accept the invitation.
“Lian… Has lost her memory… How can I rest?”
For Adele, who is shedding tears of regret, the health teacher at Selenium Academy, who is known for being strict, couldn’t bear to recommend it any more.
So instead of encouraging her to rest more, the health teacher answered the question Adele had asked.
“······It’s not like you’ve completely lost all your memories.”
“Is that…Really?”
Adele immediately turned her gaze away from Lian and looked at the health teacher.
Her cloudy eyes seemed to have returned to life, albeit a little.
However.
“I remember the basics…But I seem to have forgotten everything about people.”
“Ah…Ah…”
Adele’s blue eyes sparkled with hope, even for a moment. She was darkened again by the health teacher’s words that she had forgotten all about people.
“She forgot me, the health teacher who treated herself a few times, and also forgot her own mentor, student Tinia.”
She says she doesn’t even seem to know who she is.
“······Then I must have forgotten too?”
After the health teacher finished her words full of regret, Philip Edgar, who had been sitting still and listening to her conversation, spoke.
“······Probably so.”
“I thought I could finally apologize to this guy.”
hahahaha.
Philip’s self-deprecating laugh echoed through the health room.
“It was all pointless thinking.”
“······Edgar.”
“······It’s because of me. It’s because of me, that guy…”
Philip laughed self-deprecatingly like his madman.

I stumbled out of the health room.
“Shouldn’t we chase after it?”
“I’ll take care of Student Edgar, Mr. Health.”
“Okay, Headmaster.”
After that, the health teacher went out to make sure Philip was okay.
Now in the health room, Tinia, Principal Lapis, Adele, and Lian sleeping on the bed. There were only four people left.
For a while, everyone looked at Lian, who was sleeping, and remained silent.
“What happens to Junior Lian?”
The first person to break the silence was Tinia.
Actually, she brought that up, but Tinia was also roughly expecting it.
“······It must be difficult to lead a normal academy life.”
That it would be difficult for her juniors to attend the academy as it is now.
The loss of memory itself was not a problem.
Of course, that doesn’t mean there aren’t any problems at all, but there are bigger problems than that.
“Anyway, people’s eyes…”
The way other people look at her juniors. That was the problem.
Originally, she was Lian, who had a bad image and rumors.
There were even people who complained about Rian’s admission to Selenium Academy.
But what if they heard that Rihanna had her amnesia?
‘There will be an uproar in all kinds of media.’
Of course, they would wake up like bees and lead to voices asking why they weren’t expelled.
She’s a rumored idiot and she lost her memory, so why does she keep teaching at the academy?
It didn’t matter to them that Rian had lost her memories due to an accident at her academy.
Because the psychology of the crowd has always valued the effect more than the cause.
It was clear that he would focus only on the fact that the empire’s greatest wretch suffered from amnesia, and not consider the circumstances that preceded it at all.
“How do you deal with situations like this at the academy?”
“Rian can continue to attend the academy if she wants… But personally I think she should consider dropping out…”
Principal Lapis was also aware of that fact, and spoke his opinion cautiously.
Wouldn’t it be better for Rian to consider dropping out?
And.
It was then that Adele, who was still shedding tears, reacted.
“No…”
“······Listonian students?”
“Withdrawal is… You cannot drop out…”
At the word of withdrawal from Lapis.
Adele began to tremble as if she had heard the scariest words in the world.
“I…I will take good care of Lian… Please let Lian continue attending the academy…”
“I know how sad it is for her fiancé to drop out… But if you look at Lian’s condition, she would drop out…”
“Please!”
“····.”
“Please… I’ll do better…”
“······Listonian students.”
“So please… Let Rian keep going to the academy.”
*
When the health teacher at her academy came to visit her and said.
She thought she had heard wrong.
I thought her hearing was damaged because she was tired from being buried in the library for so long.
– Do you…Lose your memory?
– ······Yes.
Her health teacher has been telling her that her childhood friend, Lian, has lost her memory.
– ······This is nonsense.
– ···.
I couldn’t believe it.
Although I could sense that her health teacher’s pitiful gaze did not contain a single handful of lies on her part.
She still couldn’t believe it until she checked it herself.
How could she believe that Rihanna had lost her memory?
However, she told her that her reality was always cold.
– Lian…?
– Who are you?
Her childhood friend treated her like a stranger.
She had to feel like the world was collapsing again.
In her eyes, Lian, who had regained her eyesight, was looking at her.
Because all the emotions that had been contained up until now were gone, and only pure innocence remained.
Love-hate, sorry, fear. All the emotions contained in her gaze as Rihanna looked at her.
Because it was changed to the innocence of a human who only discovered what he saw for the first time.
It was absolutely not for nothing that I overreacted to the word dropout that Lapis mentioned.
I was afraid.
She was afraid of Lian disappearing to a place where she could not see for herself.
If you get away even a little bit, if you lose even a little bit of news.
A cold obituary that had been handed down to her before. She felt like it would be passed on to her again.
Adele Listonia was so scared, so afraid.
I think her best friend and loved one will disappear somewhere again.
In fact, Adele knew.
That Lian, who took her illness, would not live long.
Unlike the past when she couldn’t enter the academy, this time she entered the academy.
The state of Lian’s body, which was revealed little by little whenever an incident occurred, was telling us that he was not in a normal state.
It was for this reason that she locked herself in the library and looked through all the books on incurable diseases.
In order to somehow find a way to cure her illness that Rian took, and to bring Lian’s life back.
To see the bright smile of her childhood friend who smiled brightly at her.
So Adelistonia did not spare her own body.
“Please…”
She reached out to Lapis with a desperate request from a woman who had already lost a loved one once.
“······I will try our best.”
Even though she knew it was something she couldn’t decide alone, Lapis could only nod his head.
“····.”
Lian Kindred, the main character of all these stories.
I was sleeping with the most comfortable face in the world.
As if all the worries and worries that had bothered him until now had disappeared.
