Chapter 2: Summoning the Golem! (2)
(Aaaah~ I’m finally going to start this…)
Alfred suppressed his inner shame, took a deep breath, and reached out his hand to the Pseudo-Gate of Life.
"Ancient gods who have fallen into deep sleep, please listen to the call of the heroic bloodline, walk with me, and regain the lost glory of the past!"
(Wow…this is so embarrassing!)
After hearing this chant, many students in the audience laughed out loud.
"Pfft, this guy actually mentioned the bloodline of a hero, is he kidding me?"
"Hush, keep your voice down. He is the heir to the Duke after all. If you're talking about heroes, then... No, I can't help laughing."
(Hey, I remember your looks!)
The whispering in the audience made Alfred feel even more embarrassed.
A long while passed after the chanting ended, but the Pseudo-Gate of Life still did not respond.
"T-Teacher, could it be that the summoning failed?"
Alfred asked with some uneasiness.
"This... doesn't seem like a sign of summoning failure. Otherwise, let's wait a little longer..."
The male teacher also answered with a very confused expression.
He didn't look like he was lying, but rather seemed genuinely confused by the situation.
“Puha! It’s useless to wait a little longer! Teacher, please don’t waste time and let others summon puppets quickly…”
A black-haired male student with low quality in the audience laughed and shouted at the male teacher.
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a strong light bursting out from the Pseudo-Life Gate.
The strong light seemed to engulf the entire room. Alfred, who was standing at the front, even covered his eyes with his hands and subconsciously cast a magic shield to protect himself and the male teacher.
Although the strong magic mixed with the light was not hostile, it still made him feel a little dangerous.
When the light gradually faded, what appeared there was...
A beautiful silver-haired girl with a pair of tiny dragon horns and silver membrane wings on her back that look like a giant dragon.
(I, I have never heard of an alchemical puppet with a human appearance?!)
"What the hell is going on here?! How come I didn't know there were puppets like this?"
Alfred's inner sigh overlapped with the scream of a girl among the students.
The hall fell silent because of the sudden incident, and only the girl screamed.
Everyone's eyes naturally fell on her.
Alfred is no exception.
(Hmm... I remember she seemed to be the youngest daughter of the Border Earl Bartlett, and her name was Adelaide E. Bartlett?)
He glanced at the screaming girl, and after recognizing her identity, he was no longer interested.
"Teacher, what is going on here?"
Alfred looked at the bewildered male teacher again and asked.
"I've never seen this type of puppet before. Judging from its appearance, it may be a dragon-type puppet, but it's a bit hasty to judge based on this..."
As the male teacher muttered in confusion, the girl summoned by Alfred rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked to Alfred's side.
"I finally see you again, Al~"
The girl hugged Alfred's body and whispered in a very intimate tone.
"E-Er?"
?◇?◇?◇?◇?
(I, I didn’t know there was such a thing? What’s the matter with summoning a beautiful girl? It makes me feel so envious... No, now is not the time to worry about such things.)
Edward E. Bartlett, hiding in the corner, looked at Alfred and the inexplicably cute little dragon girl in front of the pseudo-gate of life.
Her mind was in a mess now and she had no way of sorting out her thoughts.
According to the game plot that Edward remembered, the puppet summoned by the villain nobleman Alfred should be a very special ancient species - the demon lord Baal.
(I remember that Alfred turned evil after his fiancée Rosemary died, awakened the puppet demon lord Baal, and listened to the devil's bewitching words and finally became the final boss of the game...
If his puppet is not the demon lord Baal, how will the plot develop next? ! )
Adelaide held his head in distress.
As you might have guessed, she is also a reincarnated being.
Before her death, Adelaide was a sophomore in high school, a beautiful, lovely, pure JK (full of confidence ing~).
She had an argument with her parents and planned to run away from home, but unfortunately she was involved in a traffic accident not long after leaving home.
A very old-fashioned way of traveling through time.
Because it sounds really low, Edward himself doesn't want to mention this experience.
When Adelaide woke up again, she had become the youngest daughter of Lord Bartlett.
The Illya and Alia Puppet Master Academy is the main plot stage of an adult beautiful girl game that Edward played in his previous life.
As for why she, who was a JK in her previous life, would play bishoujo games...
There are very deep reasons behind this, which I will not go into detail here.
"Although some unexpected situations occurred, we will continue with the puppet summoning ceremony for the new students."
After the male teacher in charge of instructing the summoning of puppets signaled Alfred that he could leave, he immediately shouted loudly to the other students present.
"Then next is student number 0197, Rosalie B. Mansfield, please step forward and perform the puppet summoning."
No student present stepped forward, and no one responded to the male teacher's call.
"Student No. 0197, Rosalie B. Mansfield, if you hear this, please come forward and summon the puppet immediately."
The male teacher called out again.
Seeing that no one responded to him, he marked it on the student list.
(Rosalie is the same as in the original game. She was probably late on the first day of school because she was helping her family deal with the natural disasters in the territory and helping the displaced people in the southern part of the empire.)
Adelaide recalled things about Rosalie and talked to himself.
Rosalie B. Mansfield, one of the branches of the Earl Field family and the only daughter of Baron Mansfield, is a super beautiful girl with great talent as a puppeteer and is known as a saint in the southern part of the empire.
She is one of the five heroines in the game, and also the second most difficult character to conquer and brush CG.
By the way, the most difficult heroine to conquer is the earl's daughter, Adelaide E. Bartlett.
According to the script, she should be an icy beauty with a tsundere personality.
Although Adelaide, who now has the memories of his past life, has nothing to do with the character in the original plot.
PS: Because some friends who have watched the series have been complaining that there are too many characters and their names are difficult to remember, I have attached an introduction to the characters here.
Although I didn't feel it when I was writing the main text, after briefly writing some character introductions, I found that the number of words was unexpectedly quite large. If you find reading character introductions boring, you can skip this part and go directly to the next chapter.
