I Came Back but the World is Still a Fantasy!?

Repercussions Arc 1: 03-05 Otherworld Battle

––––Even the unexpected should have its limits.

I think youve already noticed it by now, but the man known as Nakamura Shinichi has little interest in this academy as a place of learning.

While it may be true that he shares the common denominator that is To know the unknown with other students, he did not come here to study but to investigate.

From the beginning, Nakamura Shinichi didnt have the luxury of enjoying a students lifestyle.

The difference in their common sense was simply too big. One misstep and the whole stack could go up in flames.

Yet doing nothing out of fear would also be fruitless.

So, first, he needs to fool these people watching him.

Shaking them off is easy, true.

But since theyre going out of their way to underestimate him, it wouldnt do him well to give them reason to tighten their watch.

Quietly waiting until they let down their guard is the wiser course of action.

To that end, he figured hed put on the act of being an average student.

And such an act becomes all-the-more easy when this school has something known as Combat Training.

And that class takes place immediately after History.

And so, because of that, he went here to the sports ground during recess, but

What he saw left him speechless.

What is this?

That so-called Sports Field was nothing but titular.

Surrounded by spectator seats, and a large circular arena at the center, the words Sports Field and Gym were clearly ill fit.

Shaped like a dome, this was not something one could find in an academy.

Hed already known that his common sense of the place known as Academy would be overturned, but this turn of events caught him completely off guard.

And when he saw the battle occurring on the arena, he felt a strong sense of discomfort.

It shouldve been a given that the weapons theyd be using would be completely different. Theres no way the technology of a world that could overcome the barrier of dimensions like Garesto would be on the same level as that of a sword and magic world like Falandia.

Yet on top of the weapons theyre using, if its just the shape, then everything was practically the same.

The only thing different were the differently colored full body armor the students were wearing.

Those could truly be called armors made of steel. But such armors were not made through forging, but were instead, deployed automatically by a machine.

Because of that there were people who covered their whole body in armor, while there were those who only covered their limbs, or those who covered everything except for their face.

And then, there were those weapons that came from those powered suits.

Exactly, what kind of technology was this?

The small parts combine, changing their shape, mass, and size, transforming themselves into swords, into a hammer, into a cannon.

Oi, oi

It was just like the hero special effects he used to watch when was a kid.

This should be a dream come true for any boy, but the shock was too great, and he couldnt find the time to think such thoughts.
