Hybrid x Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia

In order to fix Love Rooms weakness, the low level of its mob AI, Shikina Kei incorporated the AI that was built in Exodia Exodus, a VRMMORPG game that was developed by the private sector in the past.

Kizuna and Amaterasu members Aine, Himekawa, and Yurishia were in the middle of doing the test for that simultaneously. Although they were doing it simultaneously, a separate Love Room was provided for each of them. This too was a technology that was incorporated from Exodus Exodia, but the four Love Rooms were connected through a network, so they could share a single environmental information.

Now then, I wonder where is Kizuna?

Aine frowned and turned toward Yurishia and Himekawa.

I dont see him anywherewe should be using the same environmental data though.

Himekawa looked around. There were tall trees that reached dozens of meters in height lined up. Sunlight was shining down from the treetops. The slightly misty air of the forest made the light shining down from the sky to sparkle. The refreshing green of the leaves and the colorful flower colors created a fantastical and beautiful sight as though it was a forest of fairy.

The bodies of the three became covered with Heart Hybrid Gear the instant this worlds data was loaded, Even so this forest felt so peaceful that it made them felt wearing the armors were unnecessary.

Yurishia stared at the road that was passing through that forest. Then she stretched her body.

This forest is really lovely. Its like a fantasy world. Especially

A particle rifle was held in her arms when she lowered down her stretching posture.

The people hiding over there.

Yurishias particle cannon fired. At the same time a cluster of flame came flying from deeper inside the forest. The light and flame clashed midair, causing flame blast and shockwave to explode with roaring sound.

Flame Storm!

A girl leaped out from behind a tree and yelled. She looked like a magician from a fantasy story. Her long mantle flapped while her hand was holding a thick grimoire. She opened that book and then flame jetted out from her fingertips when she yelled.

Aine deployed her Life Saver and blocked that flame.

Whats the deal with you guys?

The magician girl frowned seeing Aine casually deflecting away the flame.

No way! My magic isis it because of that unknown armor? Even so, that design really looks out of place. If I have to say, its like SF armor

Two swordsmen, one male and one female leaped out from the bush behind the girl.

Shizukuishi-san, please cover us from the rear! Lets go, Ririko.

Right, Akira-kun!

They were wearing light armor and clothes in the style of Europes Middle Age, or rather in the style of fantasy RPG. They ran with swords in hands.

Himekawa also unsheathed her sword and took a fighting stance against the approaching two swordsmen.

I dont really understand whats going on but, this feels like an old battle simulation function from before Love Room was upgraded.

Yurishia spoke with a tone that was half in admiration and half in exasperation.

Im amazed you remember such thing, Hayuru.

UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The young man called Akira swung down his sword. Yurishi drew back to dodge the sword before firing her particle rifle at Akiras chest.

Guah!

Sparks scattered and the young mans body was sent flying for several meters.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

The girl called Ririko clashed against Himekawas sword. The two swords were locked with each other with all the strength of the wielders behind them.

Aine was the only one not having anything to do. She saw another young man at some distance.

You there. You arent going to fight?

Compared to the other three, that young mans equipment looked particularly shabby. In addition he looked lost, as though not knowing whether to attack or whether to run away. The magician girl saw that and her grim face twisted to look even graver.

Youre really a trash as a man arent you, Doumeguri-kun.

Aine looked exasperated from hearing the way the girl spoke.

Thats a really horrible thing to say to your teammate.

Youre saying that Aine!?

Is that really something for Aine-san to say!?

Himekawa and Yurishia couldnt stop themselves from retorting.

Ririkos expression turned dubious hearing that exchange.

Ummare you three, not affiliated with the demon king army Hellander?

This time it was Himekawas turn to look dubious.

Ha? Helwhat?

Both sides lowered their swords and told each other about their respective circumstance.

Ichinomiya Akira raised his eyebrows while asking for confirmation.

I dont really understand but, the three of you also got sent to this world?

Aine folded her arms and frowned.

Erryou can say that.

Wait Aine-san! Dont comment carelessly like that.

Wait Hayuru. These people are data that Kei installed in right? Then theres no need for us to give such detailed explanation to them isnt it?

That might be so but

Himekawa pulled herself together and faced Asagiri Ririko.

Asagiri-san and the rest originally doesnt live here too?

Yes. We too lived normally in the real world before this, but then we slipped into this MMORPOG worldwere fighting right now trying to escape from here somehow.

To Himekawa, Asagiri and the others didnt feel like simple game data. No matter how she looked at them, she could only think of them as normal living human just like them.

Hmmm. And, can you tell us what are you doing in order to escape?

The magician Shizukuishi Non answered Yurishias question.

The Hellsgate located deep inside the demon king castle Infermia, the castle where the demon king Hellshaft is living. Well be able to return to the real world if we pass through there.

When Shizukuishi answered so, the shoulders of Doumeguri who was standing slightly outside the circle of everyone jerked up.

Himekawas eyes slowly narrowed.

Demon kingI wonder. It feels like I have heard something like that before.

What a coincidence. Im also feeling the same Hayuru.

Lemurias demon kingEros demon kingI have a bad premonition.

The three Amaterasu asked Asagiris group of the location of Infermia. Then they wished each other well before parting.

They could just deactivate the Love Room, but for some reason they felt that there was significance in finding Kizuna inside this world. The way to conquer this world that Asagiris group mentioned. For some reason they felt like wanting to try it.
