After the academy's daily schedule ended, I watched the kids leaving for a moment before moving the bag hanging next to my desk onto the desk.
Now that the weekend was starting, I was planning to take all the textbooks from Thursday and Friday's classes to review, so I could fill in the not...

Advancing, I kick off the floor and leap high.
My target is the arrogant doll's face in front of me.
I rush at it with a speed that's slower than before, but still hard to react to.
I stomp on its face, knocking it over from above.

Communication was the root of all evil...
Delivering her sincerity only made the atmosphere awkward.
Comet ate her udon glumly. She glanced at Dan Ga-yeon, who was sitting far away, and saw Dan Ga-yeon shudder and avoid her gaze. It made her even sadder.

I managed to open my mouth with difficulty when I finally came to my senses. Even if the rain was soaking Aisha's shoulder, she was a girl, and I was a boy. She might feel uncomfortable with our bodies so close, and I wondered if she was forcin...

Just moments ago, I was feeling depressed at the thought of ending my relationship with Yun Hamin, a friend I had barely made, and even the kind-hearted protagonist.
But now, I questioned if I had even felt that way at all.
Thump, thump.
My heart wasn't beating so fast because I...

In our class, there was the bottom-ranked student, Kanna Aurora.
She was the kind of person whose grades were so low that people would say the class average dropped because of her.
It started with simple pity.
She couldn't become friends with anyone because she was the lowest-ra...

About 40 percent remained.
The village I had to check.
If I had watched the manga, I could have found the place that most closely matched the scenery, but since that wasn't the case, it seemed to have taken quite a while.
Still, I was fortunate that Yun Hamin helped me.

The morning was a bust.
When lunchtime came, Yun Hamin looked around and took me to a snack bar.
To think the day would come when I'd eat pork cutlet.
I cut the pork cutlet and put it in my mouth, and the unique sauce filled my mouth.
Clink, clink. As I cut the ne...

"...A bust."
As the sun set and it was nearing time to go home and sleep, Yun Hamin spoke first, as if suggesting they wrap things up.
Honestly, I considered looking around more, but it was only the first day, and we couldn't just stay stuck in this village, so I nodded.

Knowing the future meant dealing with it alone, using that information to somehow resolve things – that was the basic principle.
But what if I suddenly went to that person and said, "This is going to happen in the future, so prepare for it"?
How much would they believe me?

I didn't hate people who lacked talent, but I hated people who didn't try.
Perhaps that's why. I couldn't bring myself to like Kanna Aurora, who didn't make an effort even after I hinted at it a couple of times.

No one expects anything. It was a comfortable yet lonely story.
Neither the teachers nor my classmates think I'm capable of achieving anything.
As if I'm incompetent and harmless, giving them no reason to pay attention, they were busy forming their own groups and chattering away.

Being alone was comfortable. I didn't have to worry about anyone, nor did I need to match anyone's mood.
I only had to think about myself, my own feelings.
However, when I saw other people gathering together, talking happily, I somehow wanted to join them.
I could feel peace by ...

Kanna Aurora. That was my name.
However, I didn't know the original personality of this Kanna Aurora.
It was difficult to grasp what she had been doing, or what she had been thinking while attending this academy.

Novelpia has been pretty trigger happy with DMCAs lately, due to their looming global version of the website (personally, not very optimistic about it). I will probably stop updating on NovelUpdates for a while to lay low.
Releases will continue here though. Thank you for your understanding...
