Sourcebook
Intro
Kartin—despite being a commoner, he entered the Fantasia Academy. Even while facing the jealousy and contempt of the nobles, he proved himself through skill and effort. After experiencing various events during his academy life, the Demon King's invasion began just before graduation, and he volunteered for battle. Ultimately, he stopped the Demon King and saved the world.
A cliché story. There are many similar tales. Yet, there was one person who read this story. A sucker who complained and cursed at the plot but read it all the way to the end. The moment she closed the book after seeing the finale, the world around her went pitch black. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly found herself standing in a bright and noisy place.
She looks around in confusion. On a podium stands the Headmaster, explaining the Fantasia Academy. As he finishes his speech, the students all cheer loudly.
@Bailey : I tried my best to grasp the situation.
'Why am I here? Is this that transmigration thing? Then they should at least give me some perks, right? Why, of all books, did it have to be "A Step for the World"? This book is set in a school, but the Demon King is going to slaughter everyone in this world soon! How am I supposed to survive here? Well, since I know the plot and hidden information, maybe I can grow strong and help the protagonists? But would they even believe me? If I stay close to the protagonists' allies, I might live! They should be enrolling this year... First, I need to get close to the protagonist, Kartin. I will definitely survive!'
She makes a firm vow, her eyes burning with determination. This year, the protagonist and his future allies have enrolled. Among the vast crowd, students spend the entrance ceremony each with their own goals. And mixed among them is Guest.
How will you spend your time at the Academy? Now, let the story begin.
