The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world

Chapter 118 Ch 116: A Dose Of Reality [Pt1]



The combat and practical class were to be held in the inner sanctuary. It was an artificially created environment that could stimulate any place you could think of.

In other words, it was a perfect tool to let students test out their limitations and to make them face challenges without risking their actual safety. Moreover, the sanctuary made any sensation you feel become sharp.

In other words, if you got hurt in the sanctuary then your physical body would be alright. But you will still feel the pain of the wound for the duration of your stay in the sphere. It was a marvelous piece of technology and one of the wonders of magi-tech's achievements.

In simpler terms, it was a device that was capable of creating artificial dungeons and having people run them.

The only downside Yohan could feel from using this kind of system was the actual rewards you got from clearing dungeons. It did not seem like there was any such mechanic involved in a sanctuary.

"Everyone, pay attention ahead. So I know that your class is not supposed to be starting the sanctuary training this early in the semester but I decided to go ahead with this anyway because certain people in here."

No one looked directly at Liza when the teacher spoke, but no one deluded themselves into believing that the teacher was pointing out someone else.

Liza herself looked disinterested in the conversation so she did not notice everyone else trying to sneak glances in her direction. And if she did, then she did her best to ignore their interested gazes.

*cough* "Anyway, since you all are not equally developed in the usage of your medium, we decided to make your first exercise team-based. The number on your wrist is the team you will be assigned to. Do remember to get along and not fight, alright?"

The teacher looked nervous by the end of her speech and it made some students chuckle.

"Fuck man. A forced reassignment? It would suck so much."

Many people complained about this unfair distribution of students and the teacher seemed to be having a hard time calming everyone down. But despite all the complaints, the teacher looked unwilling to back down.

Yohan seemed to be the only one who saw the way the teacher was nervously biting her lips. It could be a worrying detail or it could turn out to be nothing. So far, Yohan was not willing to rule anything out.

Maybe there was some kind of trap that was laid out in the sanctuary. But Yohan was not feeling particularly worried about himself. He knew he would be able to say himself in the end.

"Alright, you all should go and stand with your group. Get to know them in ten minutes and then you all would be transported to your first destinations."

Yohan did not want to interact with his group. Mainly because he felt like he would end up regretting it if he talked with the people in the class. Children had a way of sucking the energy out of you if you were not careful. And Yohan had experienced it all first-hand.

Still, orders were orders and Yohan ultimately decided to join his group.

"Oh, you are in my group as well? Aren't you glad to see a familiar face in your group? I am sure we will get along with the group…"

Yohan wanted to groan as soon as he noticed that shy yet talkative girl being his teammate. She was bad news and Yohan was sure he was being punished for all the evil things he did.

And things did not get better once his other two teammates made themselves known. His team was nothing short of a disaster waiting to happen.

"Liza, Marvis, you both were assigned to the same team as us? Isn't this arrangement weird? I mean, I am sure the teacher said that our teams were balanced but my grades are not bad enough to warrant this arrangement."

The shy girl sounded awkward once she saw her team as well. Her vibrant and strong personality had turned meek all of a sudden but it did not surprise Yohan in the least.

After all, this was the same girl who had managed to trigger both Liza and Marvis with her words before. They might not have shown thier anger but it had been evident in thier body language.

"What the hell? As if this chick here was not enough! I will also have to take care of you losers?"

Marvis looked mad at the outcome. He was not the only one displeased by what had happened but he was the only one who expressed his emotions openly. This child was starting to get on Yohan's nerves and he had to try hard to hold himself back from murdering someone.

Their assigned ten minutes were about to be up but their group was not able to strike up even a conversation. Around them, the other groups had already started to get along.

"Alright everyone, the time is up. Now, there are professionals in the Sanctuary who will help you out if you ever get in trouble. The target of your mission is to retrieve the egg type you were given. Check your team description for more and good luck."

This teacher had the same energy as the one who has asked them to reach the textbook. In other words, she wanted them to figure things out on thier own while she would sit back and relax.

Yohan had no intention of taking this assignment seriously. He was not aiming for first place but to merely pass. And he had a feeling that thier group would do well even if he did not put in much effort.

"Hey teacher, are you not going to tell us anything more?"

Someone asked from a faraway group but the teacher ignored him. And it happened just in time for the sanctuary to take effect. Thier surroundings began to blur and Yohan felt his stomach roll.

His eyes closed all on thier own and he was somewhere else entirely when he opened them the next time. Instead of metallic walls, there was greenery surrounding him. It was difficult to imagine it as a VR.

"Hurry up and get ready to move. It is not safe for us to stay at our spawn location."

Liza held herself ready to take on any challenge that would come her way. She was also the only one who had not gotten dizzy from the sudden change in her surroundings.

She almost looked used to it and both Marvis and Flora shot her envious glares. Yohan was not too bothered by her caring nature and he just looked around instead,

He instantly noticed the small pack of monsters that were heading thier way but he pretended like he had not seen anything.

"Just give us a second to catch our breath. This teleportation was a little too much for a first-timer like me to handle."

Despite saying that, Yohan knew that he was the first one who recovered. But he still kept himself in a hunched position until Marvis had come around.

Liza looked impatient but she gave the group some time to come around. Her eyes moved between their group and the monsters behind them in short bursts of interval. Her frantic movement told Yohan that the beasts were far closer than he thought them to be.
