Versatile: Alternate World

362 Class Suspension...Again

Memory alteration is one of the practical skills I learned in the past timeline. It was a skill that I learned secretly when I went to a black market in the game and one vendor teaches me to do this ability in exchange for some information he needed which I currently owned at that time. This ability is usable in real life and can be used as long as you possess mana in your body. There are no other prerequisites just to learn it other than having mana in the body. Because it was a skill that can be used for the wrong purpose, only a limited number of people know about it to avoid letting evil-minded people know this.

Once everyone in the class was knocked out, I immediately performed the Mind Alteration. It was a technique I know that allows me to manipulate a bit of the memory of that certain person. The more recent the memory is, the easier it is to manipulate it. You can either alter it, erase it or change it completely. In my case, I just decided to alter the memories and delete some parts that would make them remember I was the one who killed the intruders. Since I didn't wear a mask when I attacked, I decided to also alter my face and add the mask to add the realism and to manipulate things that happened to allow any explanations to be easily done like that was what actually happened.

I also realized that Ayane and her boyfriend are not here. Even the lackeys that followed them everywhere are not present. I wonder what happened on why they are still not attending the class at the moment. Since it was just an easy task to alter their memories due to my experience in doing this, I managed to finish everything in a few minutes.

It was a very exact time that the police arrived. They are armed and ready to charge forward to do the rescue and take the hostage-taking seriously. However, they are already late as the intruders who initiated doing the hostage-taking process are all dead.

When they arrived, all they found are all the dead intruders and the students who are all trying to calm themselves down. As for the teachers, the police quickly questioned them on how they didn't even notice their students were already in danger.

Of course, the situation got worse for them due to this and the police decided to take the matters differently.

My classmates woke up one by one before the police arrived at our room, making it look like nothing happened, and thankfully, everything about my memory alteration was done perfectly. Of course, we got questioned on what actually happened and who killed the intruders. Since I also made some testimonies together with Janus and Riko thought, our testimonies coincide perfectly with the testimonies with the other class. Of course, we have only slight differences to make sure it was not the wrong stuff we say and they would suspect something is wrong.

And due to this event, classes for the day ended much, much earlier. Not only that but the classes in our school will be suspended for another month due to the negligence that occurred and the teachers are going to be reevaluated for this. The higher-ups of the schools didn't want another incident like this to happen again in the future. Not only that but they wanted to increase the security of the school after experiencing this.

It was different in the past timeline since we had a 6 months suspension to recover from the trauma due to how some students have died in the process. Since no one from the students died, the suspension was shortened to 1 month instead of 6 months. Although it was kinda disappointing in the end, a free month's worth without the need to go to school is once again given to us. This free month will allow me to focus on the quest to the Frozen Desert and fully gear up before we started to do it. I know it is a bit short but it's better than nothing.

After all, the focus of the police right now is to find the vigilante after he killed all of the intruders. As much as it was an act of justice, killing them wasn't the right thing. Still, the only way the police can pinpoint me is if they have a detective who can quickly deduce who did it with their wild theories. Other than that, it will either take them forever to know.

....

....

The next morning, after we have breakfast, I decided to return to the game, Janus and the siblings still have something to do so they didn't log in just yet in the game. They still have something to do at the moment so it was only me who decided to play the game after breakfast.

[Welcome Back, Bladeheart]

I was greeted by the electronic voice as always. I stood up from the bed where I spawned in and rubbed my eyes, before stretching my body. The door opens and Lina appeared in the doorway.

"Master, Ms. Almira is here to see you. She said that the elf folk is now ready to receive the request to repair their defenses now."

"Will be right there, let me prepare for a bit before I meet her, please let her in if she hasn't come in just yet and prepare some food and tea for her."

"Yes, Master," Lina bowed down before she went ahead to prepare what I asked her to do.

Well, Almira's arrival is just in time. Elf folks had some really good materials in their vicinity and if possible, I might be able to access the nearby mines that they set up for getting ores to repair their weapons. In Alternate World, Elf Folks are not against the usage of mines. Since they actively use it for their own weapons, they are able to develop quite some good weapons that only elves can craft.

Currently, I am running out of ores to use and the only ore I have plenty with is gold ores and some ingots made from the excess amount of gold ores I have since I have excessively mined in the Gold Dungeon when we raided the place with Riko last time. The gold has yet to make any good use as my Blacksmith level is still too low to make something decent with it and I don't like to waste it in just making weak weapons and weak armor.

With my preparations done, I went to see Almira who is currently drinking the tea that Lina had served her with.

"You took your time, disciple. Did you seem to have no time to visit the smithy lately eh? Pretty busy nowadays?"

"Yeah, it was pretty much busy and hectic days that caused me to have no chance to visit your smithy."

"Hmm, it seems you are not neglecting your training as a blacksmith. Your abilities have grown past the beginner phase. However, it is still not enough to surpass me just yet. But I can tell you are on the road to that so just continue to do so and perhaps you will get to that point where you can create much better items now."

Then her eyes landed on the pistol on my holster.

"Oh, ho ho ho, looks like I was speaking too early, you already made something incredible even with just low-level blacksmithing of yours. That gun is very good and from the looks of it, you used some innovative designs rather than using the usual gun forms. It looks like my call was right that you are the perfect candidate to repair the elf folk's weapons then."

"Are you coming with me this time around?"

"Yes. I needed to personally check the weapons and the defenses as it took a lot of damage to their arsenal after the demons invaded them, it is also necessary as the elf folk is preparing to go on a raid battle soon and they needed the weapons to help with defeating the foes and with a large part of the elf folk will be gone for a while, the defenses of the village is necessary to avoid unnecessary risks."

"They are going to raid something?"

"Yes. Have you heard of King Arthur's legend? They are going to a place where King Arthur was last spotted and they said that the area where he was headed was the home of countless monsters that you can only meet in your nightmares."

"Are you talking about the Frozen Desert in Sandurk Continent?"

"You know about it, Bladeheart?"

"Yeah since the Queen who rules that place is also asking me to participate in that raid that is why I am so busy these days to procure different items and materials to create some of the items I needed for this raid since the Queen asked me to prepare for strong items that can withstand a lot of damage to survive the place."

"I see. No wonder it was a very hectic time around these days, it was due to this event huh? No wonder even the lesser-known blacksmiths like me get quite a very good amount of requests. I am interested in this quest, perhaps you can ask the queen who employed you to employ me as a senior blacksmith in this expedition?"

I was surprised when Almira suggested that. After all, she is very disinterested these things for a long time and this is the first time I have seen her a bit interested now.
