Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 78 - Dum-dum Me
I was just feeling good and confident that the world is going in my favor, but it seems like I’m looking too high up.Of course, it’s not going to be that easy.I might not have imagined that it would be a smooth sail after the 2nd exam, but it surely would’ve been sweet if it does.I just hope that my overconfidence wouldn’t land me somewhere nasty next time.“That talk just now brings too much steam here. I’m going to go buy something for us. What do you want, sweetie?” Terrence’s mother asked.“Anything cool, sweet, and refreshing is always okay.” I grinned.She smiles, knowing my taste. “Alright. Do you need to go to the bathroom before I leave?”I shake my head. “N-No.”“Okay. I’ll be right back. Don’t get into trouble while I’m not here.” She gives me soft pats on the cheek.I frown slightly. “I’m not one for trouble.”“I know. But you just showed me that you can hold your argument, and not many people appreciate being argued even though they are wrong. So…?” She raises her eyeb
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 79 - Some News
The girl and I talked about things. And I was right about her misunderstanding my condition. But I wasn't going to fix it because I don't think it matters. I just went along with the flow of the conversation and pretended to be someone that's into dancing.Terrence's mother returned with snacks some time later in our finishing conversation. She came with a nurse, and after checking up on me, the nurse urged the girl to return to her own room.She told me to not give up on my dream, and left with the nurse."That girl isn't bad." Terrence's mother coded me."No" I instantly turn her down. "She's just here for company. We talked a bit, and I didn't even ask her name.""But you know what she is here for?" She raised her brows, suspecting.I didn't bother to lie and just nod. "Now what did you get me?"She smiles and we enjoy the snacks she bought.Then I get a notification from Ozzie that I've earned 30 TP for helping one person.My vein pops on my forehead. 'You said the minimum is 50 T
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 80 - Walking Sticks
“Ah, you’re right. I didn’t think of that at all. All I can worry about is when I will get to work again. Because the Tower is still off limits, and there’s that parade next week. The Royal City needs their shows…” Michael said, lamenting the situation.I laugh. “Like I said. They won’t fire you with less staff in the tower. Besides, even if they did, you can just ask for proof from the academy or police. You were among the survivors saved by us after that monster invasion in the tower.”Michael puts his fist on his palm. “Oh right. I was listed as one of the last-minute survivors. If they let me go, it’s wrongful termination.”“Michael… Don’t use difficult words with Terrence…” Polly reminded.“Ah, sorry.” Michael scratches his cheek, realizing he’s talking too much about his work.I smile. “It’s okay. You need to get it out of your chest.”Michael nods. “Yes. Oh and… Speaking of letting out. Do you have anything that you want to talk about? Like, your fight back then… Or something a
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 81 - Getting Better
Now I know why I was being skittish today.First, I turned down a good idea from the System. Then, I felt more annoyed than usual and yelled loudly. Why would I over something so trivial? I thought that was just me being denial, but I realized it was because I'm anxious. And I didn't even know until they showed me those walking devices.The thought of missing even just one event in the plot leads me to think that... I would miss a few things.Maybe attending the event won't give me anything. But it's certainly not losing me anything either.And the fact that the doctor's here with a wheelchair for me means that Harcourt didn't do anything to convince anyone to get me an Elixir.Of course, in their eyes, I'm still a nobody. Saving most survivors in one mission doesn't make me a hero. Compared to Rean who has been leaving good tracks in his academy career, I'm just a small cut.So I've decided what to do."Don't worry, Terrence. I'll help you learn the sticks if you want." Michael whis
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 82 - Teacher's Counseling
That day, after visiting Terrence in the hospital, Harcourt returned to the academy right away.Instead of going to the teacher’s room, she went straight to the counseling department next door.BANGWhen the door closed, everyone inside it was surprised except Harcourt herself.Headmaster Huang, Cromwell, and two other teachers that were gathering in the middle of the room, jolted in surprise.They turned to the door.“Who the hell—"“Harcourt! You’re back!” Headmaster Huang exclaimed nervously. “Do you have business in Counseling Department too?”“Not really. I figured you won’t be in your own room at this hour.” Harcourt replied flatly.The headmaster sweatdropped.“Is there something the matter, Harry…? You look upset.” Cromwell asked Harcourt.The teachers knew that Cromwell has a habit of calling his colleagues with pet names behind closed doors. But since he always uses in moderation, they seldomly protest.Harcourt sighed. “Nothing very important.”“Finally. Someone other than
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 83 - Busted
The next day.Class 4-A.The mid-day bell rings and everyone closes their books.The 4th years are in their final semester as well, and most of them had already finished their assignments. That bell ring is reserved for the classes“Hey, Jake. How’s Terrence?” Patrick asked as he passed Natalie’s desk.Jake looks up at his friend. “He was energetic when we first met. But he turned into an old dog in the hospital. It’s curious.”Patrick smiles helplessly. “The kid can’t walk for a while. You shouldn’t expect him to be up and about…”Jake laughs loudly. “HA HA! Guess not!”Then they talk about something else.Kal stops beside Natalie’s desk. “Aren’t you going to visit him, Nat?”The orange headed girl is scribbling something on her notebook when he asked. She stops what she was doing and frowns at him. “Who were you referring to?”“Come on. You know who.”Natalie closes her eyes. “I don’t know.”Kal sighs. “Your trainee. I didn’t want to mention his name fearing that fiery cockatrice be
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 84 - Looking forward to the banquet
“Shh! You’re too loud!” I told him.“B-But you’re supposed to be injured still…! H-How can you stand so easily like that?” The old man points at my foot.I clear my throat. “U-Uhmm… It’s a long story.”‘Which I don’t intent on telling anyone including you.’“Oh… Then it’s good that I have all day! And I brought snacks too.” He shows the sweet box in his hand. “Come, come. Tell me.” The old man gestures to the bed.A drop of sweat rolls down my face. ‘How come did it come to this?’Terrence’s mother had left to buy lunch so I thought I’ll work myself out for a few minutes because I got the room to myself. I anticipated someone coming, which is why I stayed out of the door’s sight, but I didn’t expect them to come barging in like him.But really… Who the hell is this old man?Cromwell stares at Terrence who is looking at him with a very confused expression. He’s unsure of what the young man is thinking right now. “Uhh… Terrence?”I put my hand in front of him. “Wait. Who are you and how
Robin's Reincarnation System 0.1 85 - Back to the Academy
This reality game show is suddenly becoming too realistic for my taste.I mean… If it’s realistic in its battle scene where I can feel physical pain and fear of dying, it’s great! It’s like playing in VR, and I can just act accordingly.But that Cornwell old man isn’t in the game at all, is he? I don’t remember him at all! Which means he must be just an unimportant NPC going rough. Which is… Well… Undesirable.It freaked me out that he knows me already, and that he wanted to sort things out between me and Harcourt.UGH!The shivers!“A-Are you alright, Terrence?!” Terrence’s mother, Floryn, asked as we enter the plaza.Nice breeze sweeps past us as the double glass door close behind us.“Y-Yeah. Just, the wind just startled me, that’s all.” I lied.“Oh you must be cold! Pull up your zipper!” Instead of leaving me to do it myself, she pulls my zipper up for me and fixes my jacket’s hoodie to nestle around my neck.“T-Thank you…” I sweatdropped.I had managed to convince her that my leg

122 - Waiting for Backup
As we waited for backup to come, I split up with them and went to the chief’s house. But, I only found his frightened wife there who told me that he went to the restaurant. After I told her to stay put inside the house, I went to the restaurant.Sure enough, I found him there along with some scared and injured villagers.“Cadet!” The chief immediately came to me. “How’s the village’s condition? Do you know why is this happening?”“First things first, chief, is everyone here? I made sure nobody’s outside, but I haven’t really checked door to door. And your wife is by the house. I made sure she’s safe.” I told him.He nodded frivolously. “Ah yes, yes, thank you! Yes, everyone had gathered here after the monsters came. Your friend the blue haired guy protected me while I checked.”Huh. I didn’t think that guy would be quite nice to do that. But it’s part of being a cadet, so it’s not worth my compliment.I nodded at his report and went to check on the injured villagers. I knew I couldn’t
121 - Re-group (2)
“Blondie! Rufus, stop!”“No, Rufus! The village is still in chaos!”I could hear Guinevere and Pierce yelling from the side.Then I could hear clothes shuffling and Rufus said. “Let go of me! He needs to be taught a lesson!!”When I looked, Pierce was holding Rufus from behind. The four-eyed didn’t say anything, but it looked like he was trying his best to stop his leader from finishing me. His face was starting to get pinkish.I’m a bit surprised to see that Pierce got balls to stop that blue maniac. But I used this chance to get up.“I swear! I did not do it! I was looking for a Bearon like you told me to! I don’t know anything about the broken fences or monsters!” I said. I tried to make it believable.Rufus stopped resisting and glared his eyes at me. “Broken fences? So you knew the fences w
120 - Re-group (1)
Terrence and Guinevere returned to the village via the same way the monsters the entered the village. The village’s condition wasn’t that much of a difference. It was still in chaos. Although there were more upturned wagons and broken fences, along with monster carcasses.Both cadets grimaced when they saw the situation. Then the plum haired one nodded. “Yeah. Nu-uh. You obviously can’t trigger those monsters. But Rufus obviously wouldn’t listen. He BELIEVED you did it. So, you’re still in trouble.”“Dang it!” Terrence sighed heavily, pretending to be very bothered by it. “Couldn’t this day get any better?”Then they heard a scream from our right. It was high pitched and it was asking for help.“Help!! Uwaa!”A little girl emerged from the corner of a house, looking all bruised and bleeding. Behind her, a Cassory was following her closely while pecking on her dirty blue dress from behind.With her clothes being pulled, the girl lost her balance fell to the ground with a yell. The Cass
119 - Plum found Blondie
Guinevere followed the sound of gunshots and roars that led her deeper into the Southeast Forest. Her heart was beating fast with anxiety. Between getting lost and ambushed, she was also anxious that they would be punished for the chaos in the village.They were the ones who told Blondie to hunt a Bearon after all. And Guinevere had a thought that he must have aggravated the monsters in the forest somehow. She didn’t know if that’s true, but that what most likely to happen. And if it was, then it was their fault.'Is he dead?' Guinevere pouted in distress. Because if he was, it was also their fault.She started to think that testing the Blondie with Bearon hunt ‘alone’ was a bad idea. 'What if he's badly injured and he reports us to the teachers? But he's a nobody. So no one would listen to him, right? But he looks like he's close with Rean... And Rean is a star student, teachers praised him&helli
118 - Sweet Chaos
“How can monsters enter the village?!” The villagers panicked. Rufus’s group tensed. Everybody knew that monsters couldn’t get into villages because there are wards installed. The only chances they could enter are only if those wards were destroyed. Which is obviously what happened here. “The wards… They’re broken…” Pierce mumbled in disbelief. The cadets immediately left the restaurant to look at the situation. When they reached outside, Prantas and Cassories were running around, chasing the villagers and making a mess in the village. “Waaarrkk!!” The Cassories screeched as they were making chaos. “Aaahh! Help!” “Monsters!” The villagers screamed. Some of them were running into their homes, some were hiding behind a cart, or even defending themselves with whatever they could. They were trying their best not to get hurt. “Ah! Duck!” Guinevere dragged Pierce down in time as a Cassory jumped at them. “Wark—ARK!” The freakish bird was immediately slashed by Rufus and fell to t
117 - Mischief
In the end, that SE stood for South East because we ended up going to the forestry near Rowan village.I didn’t take them to be people who like cold temperature, but I think they picked this area because the monsters are less wild than the southwest.Southeast region has Bearons, bear like beast monsters, that while don’t move as fast as Direwolves in the southwest, are essentially more powerful. Added with a couple of Prantas, vine-like plant monsters that crawl on the ground and could grab someone by their feet, this area is a perfect place for training.“The target today is killing a Bearon. Then we’ll bring its head to the local hunting lodge. It’ll fetch some money for dinner.” Rufus said.I’ve always wondered how did the game reward the characters’ team money while all they do is just killing. But here, I found out that monster corpses could be exchanged for money through instances such as Hunting Lodge in the forest.But luckily for me, I didn’t have to do that because the Syst
116 - Hurdle
After delivering the food, the number 7 instantly filled the quota which means there were 13 people left for me to help.There were only 5 days left before the big day, and I need to plan my strategies fast. Not to mention the teamwork I have to increase with those jerks. If I couldn’t open the map within tomorrow, I wouldn’t be able to prepare efficiently.Then I thought of Ian. He was so determined to help people and raise the society’s view of the academy. Maybe I could ask him for help.I opened the map of Orion Terrace to find the guy, but I saw his name right on my dot.“Huh?” I frowned.Then I felt a poke on my shoulder and appeared in front of me was the guy I was looking for.“Hey! You took my job!” He crossed his hands on his chest and looked a bit upset.“Sorry. I just kinda had the epiphany to help people.” I said, pretending to be nervous.“Just kinda…?” He frowned. “No one ‘just kinda’ had an epiphany to ‘help’ people.” He said.I shrugged and pointed to myself. “I did.
115 - First Locked Map
After that short briefing, we were dismissed. Rufus and the others went on their own way while I left to plan my own strategy.‘Ozzie. Did you catch when the event is going to happen? And can I have a map of the venue?’ I asked the System as soon as I got off the elevator.[It will happen at the end of this week. Map will be available for free when you are at the place. But you can buy it at the Shop if you are desperate.]That means I have less than a week to raise my level to at least 16, and work together with… I gulp. Rufus’s team.I never liked them back when I was still a player or now. Rufus is such a… Character. He’s a real bully and bad, and… I don’t like him. Period.Pierce is the only one tolerable. He is the one who has more sense between the three of them. But I still can’t trust him because he still has a dark side that he hasn’t shown yet.While Guinevere... Well… She’s Princess Annoying. F minus. Bleh.I whisked them away from my mind for now and opened the System’s sh
114 - Failed?!
*** Mission failed! You’ve failed the mission “Get in Rean’s Team”! You may not claim the rewards! + Mission changed! Finish the mission and… *** I couldn’t bring myself to continue reading the notification as the only thing on my mind is ‘FAILED?! WHAT THE FUCK?!’ After talking to the girls, also Natalie (again), because I passed out at the banquet and I remembered I had to apologize. But thankfully, she didn’t mind at all. Although she did hear that I went to the training center, and she wanted me to spill about it. I didn’t, of course. She didn’t like it, of course. But I don’t care and she didn’t press further. Then I had a talk with Rean and Ian. Their reactions were mostly the same as the girls. Overall, they had good impression on me. So then what the hell is this? “What is wrong with him?” Guinevere asked, looking at me nervously and slight disgust. “Probably intercepting his escaping brain cells.” Rufus replied uninterestedly. The comment made the plum haired girl
