The Hero From Yagem Is Discriminated Against - Chapter 50
10. Cyber Revolution
** 10. Cyber Revolution
The warriors from Cyberpunk started running wild.
This is because the director, who had been restricting the introduction of cyberpunk technology for some reason, suddenly became generous in technology development.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m thinking of picking mulberries before the restrictions hit again, but recently, the cyberpunk side of the factory has started working at night.
It was a famous story that everyone already knew.
As evidence of that, look. Even now, countless students walking on the campus of Academia are talking only about him.
Particularly, some students were lucky enough to get prototypes and boasted about them, but the atmosphere in the academy was somber when they heard that artifacts that had never existed would be produced countless times in the future.
In the meantime, there was a hot potato in the peer response team.
“Me too, just once!”
“Ed, please!”
“Ugh, line up, line up!”
“I said first!”
The classroom of the peer response class is noisy.
There was a cyborg id in the eye of the storm. Thanks to his background in cyberpunk, he received benefits from his seniors in advance.
A smartphone – an artifact – was proudly hanging in his hand.
Cynthia muttered while looking at Id, who was the center of the topic in class.
“So, the corners of the mouth will ascend to heaven before the owner of the body?”
“hahahaha… “
Ed certainly seems more tense than ever.
Even so, the eccentric guy is getting attention, so he doesn’t know what to do.
Cynthia fell on her stomach and made a bolmen sound.
“Wasn’t he a sucker like us?”
“Okay?”
“Ahhh, so outside… Ha, bullying, bullying.”
“Oh, bullying.”
I nodded.
Definitely, Id, Cynthia, and I all had an extraordinary corner and had a past where we were ostracized. Didn’t the last three people get together when forming the group?
“Hey, why are you so dead?”
In the meantime, Id, who had shaken off the crowd of smartphone beggers, came and sat down next to me.
Looking at the spread Cynthia, he chuckled.
“My time has now come. Don’t be too sad, you guys were once a team, so I’ll take good care of you… But Alem, what is that… ?”
“Hmm?”
The gaze of id, who was boasting with his nose high, is stuck in my hand before I knew it. To be exact, on the smartphone I’m holding.
I smiled shyly.
“Somehow.”

The fact that the class turned over once more was probably a predestined result.
Id crossed his arms and vomited his anger as if he felt that he had suddenly lost the spotlight.
“Where did you get it from?”
“Thanks to my acquaintance.”
“Did you have any other cyberpunk acquaintances besides me!”
“Yes, what.”
I manipulated my smartphone while listening to id’s complaints.
From the side, Cynthia was looking at me curiously, ‘Wow, Wow’.
I briefly gave her the information I knew.
“If you click here, you can take a picture, if you press this, you can see the weather, and this… “
Although I heard that it’s still a prototype and doesn’t have many built-in features, it was an artifact that was capable enough to overflow from the eyes of two beginners.
I even thought that this small lump of metal would be better than most assistant wizards.
Cynthia strongly agreed to that.
“This is… It’s an innovation!”
“What is innovation?”
Id clicked his tongue.
“It’s just a prototype. It’s hard to think that’s what cyberpunk is all about.”
“What else is there?”
Id, who was slightly relieved by Cynthia’s heated question, grinned.

“There will be countless upgrades in the future.
“Upgrade?”
“For example, this smartphone could become a very small chip and get stuck in Cynthia Nie’s head… “
“Wow!”
Cynthia shuddered and shook her head briefly.
“Isn’t that gross?”
“Uh huh, what’s gross. That’s why you can’t come from uncivilized origins.”
“…What is that discriminatory remark?”
“Miniaturization is the ultimate goal of technology.”
Anyway, it is clear that Academia has entered an untimely development frenzy.
It is said that not only smartphones but also bizarre artifacts that are unimaginable unless you are from cyberpunk are being developed at this moment.
No, in fact, they are objects that have already been in their world, so it would be appropriate to say reproduction rather than development.
It is said that it takes time to release a product because it is necessary to adjust the figures little by little according to the medium-dimensional environment.
That was the explanation I heard from id.
“And look out the window at that, that. Shield.”
Id raised his finger and pointed at the clear sky.
“Actually, there’s magic flowing through everything over there too, right? So, sooner or later, through that shield, we will build a communication network that boasts high-speed feedback only in the middle dimension.”
“If that happens, what will be different?”
“Everything will change.”
Ed grinned and smiled as if he was already looking forward to it.
“I bet there are not one or two people who will lose their jobs? Starting with the guys who print newspapers right away, to the guys who are secret and know the information from other people… Giggling… “
“It’s shady… “
Cynthia hated it, but I focused on the content.
“Are there people who even collect information about where they come from?”
“All of those things cost money.”
“Hmm.”
“There are still a few of them wrapped in a veil. For example, assuming you’re competing against those guys, they need information.”
Once I heard it, it seemed plausible.
It was interesting information, so I was going to skip it, but Id suddenly said.
“What, isn’t this the vigilante?”
Id, who had been casually flipping through the screen as if he had taken my smartphone before I knew it, suddenly opened his eyes wide and put his face on the screen.
Cynthia also brought her face to the screen when she was said to be a vigilante.
“Wow, that’s real! Standing in a very pretty composition… “
The two of them stopped talking and shut their mouths at the same time as if they had squeezed each other.
I received their strange gaze and hurriedly took my smartphone away and tried to make excuses.
“You… ?”
“Mr. Alem… ?”
It seemed that the seeds of misunderstanding had already been planted deep.
After that class, I was focused on explaining everything.

“What were you talking about earlier?”
“No, ha… “
Lisbeth also installed her own coffee machine in her private teaching room.
She drank her coffee with her skillful skill and handed me a cup.
I was already exhausted in the morning. The only photo in the photo album on my smartphone was, of course, Wins’s, so Id and Cynthia, who had seen it, almost had seizures like monkeys and made fun of me.
I’m going crazy, I think I’m going crazy…
“Haa… “
However, it was not something to talk about easily.
Even if I were like you, I would feel that way if there was only one photo of the opposite s*x in my photo album.
I didn’t say anything and just drank coffee while moaning inwardly.
Lisbeth leaned back on the sofa opposite me and slowly drank her tea.
After such a brief silence.
“…That day, I mean.”
Lisbeth also opened her mouth with a face that barely tolerated her pain. She soon realized the cause.
On the day Peer spread and invaded the world of images, it must be that he was affected by the mental attack of Eros beasts that suddenly appeared.
The prediction was correct.
“I’m so sorry. I never meant to do that, but at the moment, my reason flew away to the point where my self-control completely evaporated… “
Lizbeth apologized to me over and over again.
I could see only the crown of her head in her bowed head, but her ears were turning red.
“It’s okay, raise your head, Professor Lisbeth.”
“But… “
Reluctantly, Lisbeth, barely holding my hand, said.
“It’s a disqualification as a professor, and that was in the yard protecting Alem-kun.”
“Didn’t you say that they completely escaped the influence of the chairman’s seal? In the meantime, I must have developed strength in some way.”
Lizbeth nodded indignantly.
“It was different from when they were first summoned.”
“If even the professor is helpless, what about the other students? On the contrary, I was able to handle it well thanks to the reception I received instead.”
“hahahaha… “
Despite the consolation, Lisbeth laughed dryly. She seemed to have other thoughts in her mind. Soon, her true heart came out.
“Anyway, I need to change the existing curriculum a bit.”
“How?”
“I will do my best to defend myself against mental attacks.”
It was to respond to those who were much more powerful than expected.
In the first place, it would be right to see that the enemies that the peer response team has to deal with in the future are not only peers, but also the combined forces of Eros.
However, it is being kept secret to prevent the spread of fear, but mental defense will be essential even for the warriors who will one day face the mental attacks of Eros beasts.
“Can the warriors understand?”
“The first thing to do is to convince them why mental defense is necessary.”
And then Lisbeth looked at me.
“For a hero to grow, he must be profound not only physically, but also magically. Isn’t it common sense that that power comes from the heart?”
I was wondering what you were talking about.
“That’s why I want Alem to stand in front of the warriors as her face madam. Look, she said, if you set your mind so hard, the way will open… “
“Aha.”
It was a very good story.
If you bring a good image in small ways, your reputation will improve in many ways.
Seeing that there are still warriors who are still afraid of me, I think I need to continue working on my reputation.
However, the idea of damaging the reputation of Eros itself was abandoned.
It was also because what they did was crueler than I could have imagined, and it was also because it was not a problem that could be solved simply by passing time.
At least, unless Eros’ beasts were completely eradicated, it was certain that his reputation would fall into the abyss again for the same reasons.
“Good. I will.”
With a willing nod, Lisbeth’s complexion brightened.
“Thank you… Thank you very much. I don’t know how to make a case.”
“The coffee you always brew is enough.”
I smiled and lifted the mug.
Lisbeth let out a sigh of relief and then spoke as if confessing.
“I thought a lot about what to do about mental defense… “
“That’s right, I won’t be in trouble if I get attacked again.”
“Profit, that’s… !”
“Puch.”
She exchanged light jokes with her and was about to leave her seat, when she suddenly heard the door open behind her.
-Jumping.
At the same time, I felt something creepy.
She slowly looked behind her.
And Professor Sui was there.
“Attack, again… ?”
I know that Lisbeth and Sui are friends, but I wonder if they didn’t even knock on each other.
It was a kind of escape from reality.
Sui asked blankly from the other side of the professor’s office door that had been thrown open.
“Who, whom… ?”
