Max managed to regain control of his body after the cutscene ended. At that moment, the quest was updated.


    [Quest updated!]


    [Main quest: Choose the doll! Red: Easy Difficulty. Yellow: Medium Difficulty. Purple: Hard Difficulty. Blue: Trash ss Difficulty.]


    Four branches of lights with respective dolls'' colors and an additional blue line that extended to Doordod appeared in his vision. They must be where the dolls were located and thest one must be to choose the trash ss choice.


    All the students around Max moved at once. They began to find the dolls. If they could find them, then that meant the yers had time to choose the difficulty they wanted. If they were toote to choose a doll, they would automatically enter Trash ss difficulty.


    "I like how they keep the realism in this game." He said as he began to move toward his target. "I''ve decided the difficulty I want to take. Don''t judge me for this, guys."


    — We''re definitely judging you


    — Don''t be chicken! I bet you''re just going to take the red doll and get the easy difficulty


    — Nah, he probably thought Trash ss difficulty would be fun. It''s Breeze, remember? He loves challenge


    — Or maybe he will just punch Doordod because hisugh was sickening earlier. That would be funny


    Indeed, Max thought of doing that too. But that would be too much, at least in his current condition. He didn''t want to make an error or be put in the trash ss for punching that teacher.


    Finding the doll he was searching for was pretty easy. It was located just after the elevator on the second floor. He was surprised that none of the students found it yet.


    "Got you."


    — … Really?


    — You choose that out of anything else? Breeze, I am disappointed


    — I thought you would be… the same as everyone else.


    — Now I will judge you! I dere that Breeze is guilty!


    "Don''t say that, folks. I just y this game for fun, so let me choose whatever I want."


    He put the doll inside his robe and grinned. A notification rang in his ear and a window appeared in his vision.


    [Questpleted!]


    [Main quest: Bring the doll back to Teacher Doordod.]


    Max returned to the location where Doordod stood earlier. He walked down the stairs and found out a crowd had already formed around the shady teacher.


    "How are they so fa– Right, this is a game." Max was about to retort, but he remembered no matter how realistic the graphic was, this was in the end still a game that followed a certain script.


    Ignoring the weirdness of the game, he approached the Doordod and gave him the doll. When Doordod saw it, he took the doll and spoke in a deep voice.

    "Hmm, yellow doll. You go to ss 2." Doordod put the doll away and took out a card, "You can use this to enter your ss."


    Max took the card and got another notification.


    [Questpleted!]


    [Main quest: Reach ss 2.]


    The quest was pretty simple from the start until now. Max was pretty impatient to use magic again or create one.


    "Why don''t they move as fast as Mercenary Quest?" He grumbled as he followed the new guiding line to ss 2.


    — Because it''s an academy setting.


    — It''s following the storyline, no? This game is faithful to its process


    — Tutorial -> epted -> Choose ss -> Get ss -> Next… That''s normal, right? Mercenary Quest is a fighting game, that''s why it''s fast


    — Don''t hope for the same in this game, Breeze. This is already fast. You only choose a ss by taking a doll that you know the location of!


    The viewers began to berate Max because he grumbled about the slow storyline. He knew that each game was different, but wasn''t it normal to have aint if he didn''t like something?


    "Do I have no right to grumble now?"


    — Yes


    — Exactly


    — That ability to grumble is sealed when you''re streaming


    — No streamer will grumble about the game… Well, they did. But just y for now. It''s only the start. The pace will pick up soon


    — Just go to the ss


    "I know. I''ve arrived as you are typing."


    Max entered the ss and found himself in a room simr to a lecture hall. Many students were sitting on the stairs-like row of seats. He was surprised by that sight, but it was probably the game setting too.


    A certain seat was glowing. That must be where he should take a seat. Ignoring everything else, he went to that ce and sat down.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    When he did so, the cutscene started. He could see everyone moving and a female teacher, with slightly suggestive clothing and arge witch hat, entering the ss. The teacher was so beautiful and sexy that the chat began to get crazy.


    "Alright, students. Let''s begin the ss."


    — Whoa, she''s sexy! And her voice is really good. Say ''ara-ara'' please!


    — Teacher! Please step on me!


    — Now this is getting interesting. I want her to step on my cheek!


    — Guys, stop it. Look at Breeze''s expression. He looks like he would press a ban button anytime.


    — My condolences. But the teacher is a really beautiful dude! I want a GF like her!


    "Should I ban some people?" Max muttered as he watched the cutscene continuing without his interference.


    The chat immediately apologized, especially those who typed something like wanted to be stepped on by the teacher who introduced herself as Prilly.


    The teacher exined how things work, such as the ss, and how to create magic. Max already understood how they worked so he didn''t really listen to them.


    In short, the ss would be held from 8 AM to 1 PM every day except weekends. Each ss would give him 150 EXP, which he didn''t know whether it was high or not. There would be 5 questions in each ss. If he answered them correctly, he would get an extra 20 EXP for each correct question.


    "I hope the question isn''t too hard," Max muttered as he watched the cutscenee to an end.


    "Alright, students. If you understand, then follow me. I will help you create your first magic. Let''s head to theboratory immediately!"


    [Questpleted!]


    [Main quest: Follow Teacher Prilly to theboratory and create your first magic.]


    After the teacher said that, the cutscene ended and Max was able to move his body again. A blue line extending toward Prilly appeared. To continue the main quest, he had to follow it.


    Inside, Max was happy because he didn''t think he would create the new magic this fast. He thought he had to wait until a few sses before he could do it.


    "Nice!" He eximed. "Let''s create an ultimate magic, shall we?"


    — Umm, no. You can''t do that, you know?


    — Did you not hear the first magic? Who would be able to create an ultimate magic in the first try?


    — Breeze''s brain was damaged, I knew it! He has gone crazy!


    — Lord, please make this streamer to regain his sanity


    Naturally, Max ignored them and followed Teacher Prilly to theboratory. The thought of creating his first custom magic excited him.
