Arc 2: Night Raven College

Ch6: The Guide

Andersen had been cleaning his new dwelling with the ramshackle dorm's three ghosts since the day of his interview and appointment as a lecturer at Night Raven College.

Andersen didn't stop cleaning the run-down hostel with the help of the ghost. He didn't eat or sleep. After three days at Night Raven College, Andersen has completed the cleaning of the Ramshackle dorm, his new home.

Even after cleaning, there were still a few things he needed to accomplish at his new home.

Repairing holes in the roof and walls, locating a water supply and electricity, locating a light source, and so on. He would also wish to improve the Ramshackle dorm. The basement would become a workshop where he would do his Magus work like creating magic artifacts and tonics. Andersen may subsequently make one of the rooms in this building a small library. It would not contain books about this world, but rather stories and history about Earth.

As for how he would get those stories, he could write them down and have them published in a book. He would not make those books available to the public, instead keeping them in his hypothetical library for himself. And if he couldn't recall the works of other authors, he could use the tablet to look through the innumerable files.

The tablet was made by Da Vinci with the help of other servants. Giving to him by them and his two masters. A tablet with an inexhaustible battery and he could look at countless pieces of information that were stored and came from Chaldea.

He would also like to purchase chairs and gardening tools, as well as paint to refresh the chipped and fading colors on the walls.

Andersen chose to stop after the 3 days of cleaning that he have done, as much as he wanted to keep improving the house for his sake, there was something that he have to do.

Today, he would return to Ledusberg with Crowley.

Andersen heard a knock on his door while sitting in his new home's lounge, he was looking at the lack of chairs in his lounge, such as a soft or comfortable sofa chair.

Andersen went to the entrance hall and opened the door, astonished that it wasn't Crowley who knocked.

A kid a few inches taller than him stood in front of the door. His blue-colored flame hair and robotic body parts were peculiar.

Andersen was not surprised to see a robot child standing in front of his door. It was not unusual to see robots/mechanical robots in Chaldea.

In Chaldea, there are a few mechanical servants, such as Mecha Eli-chan and her alter version. There was Galatea, a sculptor turned human, a karakuri doll ninja (Katou Danzo), and humans donning robot body armor, such as Charles Babbage and Minamoto no Tametomo.

It wasn't weird to see this mechanical youngster in front of him.

" Are you Mr. Hans Christian Andersen?"

When the robot child saw him, he queried with uncertainty and confusion.

"Did Crowley send you?"

The child's eyes lit up for a second as he heard Andersen's query. When Andersen acknowledged that he was truly Andersen, the misunderstanding vanished. When Ortho came face to face with a fellow child, he was initially perplexed. After hearing the confirmation and the deep voice coming from Andersen, it was revealed that Andersen was not a youngster, but an adult.

Ortho responded by answering the question.

" Yes, Mr. Hans Christian Andersen, he has encountered me and asked that I lead you to the mirror chamber where he is currently waiting."

Andersen clicked his tongue, feeling increasingly dissatisfied with the headmaster. If he already had a rock-bottom impression, it would suddenly fall and dive deep lower as he learned more about the headmaster's deeds and demeanor.

After exiting the dorm and closing the door, Andersen advised the child to begin going.

" Lead the way, then."

"Yes, Mr. Hans Christian Andersen. "

While walking with the child, it was unexpected that advanced technology such as the robot child existed.

On their trip to the mirror chamber, the robot child introduced himself.

" I forgot to introduce myself to you, Mr. Hans Christian Andersen; my name is Ortho Shroud... Are you a new professor here at Night Raven College, Mr. Hans Christian Andersen? I heard that you have been hired by the headmaster."

Nodding his head, Andersen asked.

" Are you a student?"

Ortho answered with a shake of his head.

" No, I am not, but I am permitted to be here and accompany my brother."

As they continued going, they came upon the main street, where the statues of the great seven could be found.

" Are you familiar with the great seven, Mr Hans Christian Andersen?"

Andersen recognized the seven statues when he saw them.

Back on Earth, even if the world is in peril, his two masters will have opportunities to have fun. One of these was having movie nights, which they would enjoy with some of the servants.

The two masters would invite the child servants to watch Disney movies. Disney animated films based on fairy tales.

All of the animated films have evolved into happier-ever-after stories that are lighter, friendlier, and more child-friendly than the original versions of their stories.

His little mermaid included, which should have been a sad and tragic finale. A trash comedy was written from his point of view that tells the narrative of a foolish and naive mermaid princess who expects her love to be returned. She is then given a second chance, but she chooses to be a fool and turns into sea foam.

Andersen would wish to speak with Walt Disney if he were to be summoned as a servant in Chaldea in the future.

He wouldn't chastise him for not sticking to the original rendition of the Little Mermaid. But he wants to meet the man and chastise him for instilling hope in the minds of youngsters and the concept of happily ever after.

Andersen's face was amused as he gazed at the obese octopus woman statue.

Benevolent?

Nothing about the Sea Witch is kind.

It's absurd that the people of Twisted Wonderland idolize fairy tale villains.

Andersen held back his laughter as Ortho described each of the seven fairytale villains and their attributes.

They eventually arrive in the mirror chamber, where Ortho bids his farewell. It was finally time to put the magical mirror in Artik's palace.
