Episode 06:” Full Throttle”

The next day.

I was assigned to be Mize’s escort, so I decided to first check her basic schedule.

I’m Mize’s friend, but I don’t know her daily cycle.

What time does she wake up in the morning? What time does she go to school? Does she always go straight home after school? If you are an escort, you need to know at least this much information.

Six o’clock in the morning.

It’s a good idea to have a good idea of what you’re looking for.

…The security is better than I expected.

Dormitory of the Bildarz Academy is as expected. The school, which is often attended by the daughters of noble families, is well guarded. There are always two or more guards patrolling the area around the dormitory.

–How would I act if I were the enemy?

I assume that they know that Mize lives in this girls’ dormitory.

You may think that your room has strong security, but it is actually an easy target. That’s because once you are inside the room, you are completely safe from the eyes of third parties. It is the most reliable place to contact the target, as long as you can get past the outside guards.

There are many ways to break into the dormitory, either by disguise or by blackmailing and manipulating the people who live there.

There are many ways to do this. The women’s dormitory is not safe at all.

Of course, there is a guard to prevent such a situation from happening, but… we should also think about what to do if the enemy invades the girls’ dormitory. It is best to decide on a pattern of action in advance, otherwise, it will be too late.

If the enemy has already entered the dormitory, it is a race against time.

There is no time to disguise yourself. Do we go in through the window? Or go through the front door?

“Hey, Tweight.”

As I was pondering with my finger on my chin, a voice called out to me from behind.

I turned around to see my sweaty friend standing there.

“Glan?”

“You’re not running today?”

“Yeah, I was just thinking about something.”

A lot of the students at Bildarz Academy have a daily routine of early morning running. Among them, Glan and I have become famous as serious runners, but now that I’ve been assigned to …escort, I won’t be able to do any running for a while.

He must have run a long distance today.

I stopped and asked Glan a question as he caught his breath.

“Glan. The girls’ dormitory doesn’t allow boys, right?”

“Hmm? Well, yes.”

“Isn’t there some way for a guy to get in?”

“You’ve been running full… throttle since this morning…!”

Glan gave me a look of respect.

I feel like I’m being misunderstood.

“But no. You can’t do that here. The security at our school is ironclad. I’m not sure how many brave men and women have already lost their lives because of it… Damn.”

Glan said with tears of regret.

For some reason, his voice was filled with a sense of truth.

“I heard that the girls’ dormitory has an invisible barrier.”

“Barrier?

“Yeah. If anyone tries to enter without permission, an electric current will be triggered.”

“What electric current?”

It seems to be a very serious warding.

“How do they recognize that permission?”

“I don’t know. I looked it up too, but I couldn’t figure it out. I don’t like the fact that you can’t see … This is a great trap, man. You should be careful with… Tweight! And if you do get inside, let me know how to do it too!”

After saying that, Glan resumed his run again.

The student dormitory was not on the school grounds, but a short distance away. Glan’s running would soon be over. After running to the school building, he would take a shower and be done.

The dormitory and the school are both protected by high security so the enemy would have a limited time to move.

For example – the route to and from school, which you must take to get between the two facilities.

“Well…”

Let’s take them down while we still can.
