The Broken Possessors of the Infinite Regression Academy

Chapter 300 – Epilogue – Graduation

Bellium Academy was bustling from dawn. A great number of people, both noble and commoner, had gathered at the academy to celebrate their graduation or to be celebrated.

In particular, the parents and relatives of the Academy students were provided with a dimensional gate to allow them to attend the graduation ceremony with peace of mind, so even commoners were able to enter without any burden.

The reason was that if a child graduated from the Empire’s best academy, then the family deserved to be treated equally.

Although there weren’t that many students from commoners, it was a double-edged sword as they saw their families amazed as they crossed the dimensional gate, and it not only made them proud, but also made them even more loyal to the empire.

This was even more so because the number was only about 0.5% compared to the entrance ceremony. There were several people who failed three times and were expelled.

Those who were admitted here were the elite among the elite, and 2% was the highest in history, and it usually stayed in the single decimal place, but the fact that there were guys who didn’t graduate was a factor that made the rest of them look even more arrogant.

“mummy!”

As I was looking around the classroom for the last time, thinking about this and that, someone called out to me from behind and hugged me tightly. I felt a soft lump of fat near my shoulder blade.

The arm that was wrapping around my neck gained strength, and a heavy feeling pressed down on my left shoulder. Pink hair swayed in the corner of my vision, and warm breath reached my ear.

“What’s going on, Nika?”

“Just. I wanted to hug you like this.”

I asked if I could speak informally to him like a friend during the graduation ceremony, so I agreed, but it felt quite refreshing in its own way.

Nika hugged me and rubbed my cheek over my shoulder before pulling me away. I turned around. There was Nika, wearing neither a maid nor a queen’s outfit, but the uniform of Bellium Academy.

Even though the outfit wasn’t particularly body-flattering, a specific part of her body blatantly caught my eye.

The buttons on her chest were so tight that they seemed ready to burst, and her tight hips and buttocks were tucked under her skirt, which was short enough to reveal the flesh under her buttocks. However, her waist and sides were still loose with a little extra size.

If there hadn’t been a perception-impairing spell cast on it, it would have attracted every gaze, even though there was no part that had been shortened or tightened.

“What are you two doing? I’m telling you in advance, but doing anything weird outside is prohibited.”

Karna approached one after another. Karna had also changed a lot compared to before. The calluses on his palms had disappeared a lot, and the muscles on his legs, which were revealed under his skirt, had also become much thinner.

Now, whenever he walked, his thighs would shake slightly. Karna was initially dissatisfied with this change, but when Nika said that he needed to have some flesh to be comfortable in bed, he blushed and accepted it.

That’s not all. It was Nika who taught Karna, who was shy about relationships with the opposite s*x, all sorts of knowledge. The only problem was the knowledge of a succubus.

“I didn’t do anything weird. My breasts are big, so even the slightest movement makes it look weird.”

“… … .”

Nika crossed her arms and bent her waist slightly, as if intentionally emphasizing her chest. As expected of a succubus, her slightly bent waist was extremely alluring. Karna’s eyes twitched slightly.

“Don’t come all the way here. What’s going on, you two?”

“Mira, I came to pick you up! Everyone is waiting, let’s go quickly!”

Already? I thought, but since he came all the way here to pick me up, I couldn’t not go. After saying okay, I took the two of them and walked to the Colosseum.

People made way for us in our Bellium Academy uniforms. The only ones allowed to wear uniforms today were the third-year students who were graduating. So everyone made way for us.

Among them, there was a kind-hearted person who congratulated me on my graduation even though it wasn’t his child. I responded in kindness and urged him on.

The Colosseum we arrived at was overflowing with people. If it weren’t for the magic, it would have taken ages just to get in.

As I passed through the magic barrier with a fake identity that I had arranged in advance and entered, I saw three people huddled together near the entrance.

“mummy!”

“You’re late.”

“Isn’t it too late?”

Priscilla ran towards me with a bright smile and jumped into my arms, and Elisier and Laura each spoke a few words. I held her body lightly in my arms and looked around. There were only people whose faces I recognized.

“Just you? What about everyone else?”

“They’ve been waiting inside for a while. As soon as we get there, it’s over.”

“You’re going in so early. There’s still a lot of time left.”

Laura and Elisier told us we were running late, but in reality, there were still over 30 minutes left until the graduation ceremony started. If we went in early, we would just be standing around until it started.

“There’s no reason for me to be alone anyway. It would be better if we all gathered together and waited.”

“Okay. They said everyone was inside, but we’re the only ones outside. Let’s go, Priscilla.”

“Yeah. Hehe.”

We soon blended in with the students and soon found the other three.

Seating at the graduation ceremony is completely random, except for the top five students who go up on stage to receive their diplomas as representatives. But we were an exception.

“Oh, here it comes.”

“Come quickly! It’s starting soon!”

“You still have to wait more than 30 minutes, Rosaria.”

From afar, Rosaria, who was wearing a school uniform like Nika, waved her hand and called us. Leona and Latina were waiting beside her. Latina was also wearing a school uniform.

“Over here, over here!”

As her plump chest shook along with the waving of her hands, Latina, who had been staring blankly at the sight, said a word.

“Can’t you just grab it and shake it? It’s driving me crazy.”

“Wouldn’t it be more painful to hold on to it? Oh, you don’t know because you’re not there?”

Latina, who had been hit with a light jab and then her body weight, made a bewildered expression. Elisier, Laura, and Nika all snickered at the same time.

On the other hand, Leona and Karna only raised the corners of their lips slightly. It seemed that it was because they did not feel like it was someone else’s business.

“Why are you saying that hereㅡ”

“Are you really trying to argue on such a happy day?”

Just as they were about to engage in a war of nerves, Beatrice cut them off. Latina turned her head reflexively, and her expression turned into shock.

The rest of them turned their heads to see what was going on. Except for Nika, whose eyes began to sparkle, one by one, expressions of shock and astonishment appeared.

“… … .”

I probably had the same expression on my face. And of course, Beatrice showed up wearing an academy uniform.

I had heard the news that she was coming a long time ago. But I had no idea that she would come wearing a school uniform. Compared to Beatrice a few years ago, when she wore a skirt that didn’t even show her shoes, it was a world apart.

Beatrice looked at us in astonishment, smiled smugly, and took out her smartphone from her pocket. The click of the shutter brought me back to my senses.

“It seems I have successfully surprised you, Your Majesty.”

“That… … No. What is that? A school uniform?”

“I obtained this through a personal deal with Erestica. Please hear the terms of the deal from Erestica.”

“Really? Can’t I just ask you?”

Nika’s voice came from right behind Beatrice. Before Beatrice could turn around in surprise, the hand grabbed the hem of her skirt.

“You said you wouldn’t wear short skirts because they were vulgar, but what is this? Have you decided to become vulgar? Have you seen everything Mira and I have seen?”

“Wh, what are you doing!”

The hand holding the hem of the skirt began to move up and down. Beatrice was very frightened and pressed the hem of the skirt urgently. It seemed as if a black string was slightly visible between them, but it was probably just my imagination.

“Eight, eight.”

“Ha, I told you not to… …!”

“Show me something even worse than that.”

“That’s right. I’ve already shown you my naked body. There’s no reason to be embarrassed.”

“You didn’t even tell me your age until the very end. How about we pretend we’re the same age and keep talking?”

“That sounds good too. I agree.”

“Wow, whoa… … Was that just now, a string… … ?”

“I, I think that’s what happened… … ?”

“I think the area above would be similar to that.”

The attack came without mercy. Beatrice blushed and held the hem of her skirt tightly. It was proof that their hearts had become closer over the past two years to the point where she could say and do such things without hesitation.

Nika held it for a while and then let go. Beatrice quickly ran behind me and hid, her hand still holding onto the hem of my skirt.

“Mira, Aria?”

Priscilla, who was laughing heartily in my arms, tilted her head. As she said, there was no one. Actually, if we were to be exact, there were two, but Erestica was out of the question because she was preparing for the graduation ceremony.

“There’s still a lot of time until graduation anyway. I’ll make it there by then.”

“You’re late, then. I’ll scold you.”

Just as Priscilla was preparing to tease Aria with her usual ridiculous excuses, someone came running from afar. Her characteristic blond hair was flying everywhere.

“There they come.”

Laura raised one hand slightly. The running speed gradually increased, and then stopped right in front of us. Aria, who had been running panting, looked around to catch her breath.

“Why are you all here already?! There’s still a lot of time left?!”

There were still about twenty minutes left until graduation. But it must be embarrassing that everyone is already gathered and waiting. Priscilla said in a firm voice.

“It’s late.”

“Eek… … .”

Aria made a sad face.

We spent some time chatting about this and that, and when the surroundings became quiet, we stood in line, keeping our mouths shut. In the distance, Erestica was coming up on stage.

A tight suit skirt that clung to her body and was pulled taut around her hips and thighs, a white dress shirt that was as revealing as a sleeveless top, and breasts that were still overwhelmingly large.

Erestica, who seemed to have not changed at all despite all the changes we had made, opened her mouth with a compassionate smile.

“I would like to sincerely congratulate you on becoming the 140th graduating class of Bellium Academy.”

A thunderous applause erupted. Even in the audience, the gods, Cheon-shin and Ma-shin, each holding an ice cream in their mouths, were clapping their hands. Io was looking after the two of them from the side.

“Since you entered and spent half of your year here, a lot has happened. Our academy has changed a lot. I sincerely thank you for following along so well even through all this chaos.”

The congratulatory speeches continued. There was no concept of boring lectures for the students of this world. Everyone listened to Erestica’s speech with sparkling eyes.

“The comment is similar to last time.”

“Is this just the first time? This is already the third time.”

“Certainly, three graduation ceremonies is a very rare experience in its own way.”

“Is this my first time?”

“Hey, but wouldn’t it be better if we all listened to it together?”

“That’s right. That’s why our warrior likes to be together even in bed.”

“Oh, right. It was really great back then. I mean, she was more like a succubus queen than I am, a succubus queen.”

“T, but that much… … no… … right, isn’t it?”

“… … .”

Except for us, who have placed perception-impairing magic everywhere.

Everyone was whispering, except for Beatrice, who had been teased and sulked as soon as she arrived, and Karna, who had been listening to the congratulatory speech with rapt attention from the beginning.

Aria did the same. Still awkwardly, but definitely, she joined the conversation. I looked at her with a pleased smile.

“Everyone looks happy.”

“Yeah. It looks like that.”

So much has happened in the past two years. From accepting Aria to trying her hardest to be accepted by those around me.

The Demon Realm also found stability in its own way. More than two years had passed since the war with humans had ceased, but the Demons had hardly any complaints. This was because the power of the Goddess and the Demon God had set the origin of the Gate in the Demon Realm.

The Demons are happy because they can freely express their instincts against the countless monsters pouring in. On the other hand, the Humans are happy because they are much more peaceful thanks to the Gates that have greatly reduced in frequency. It is a win-win situation for both parties.

“… … Now there’s no need to bring up old memories anymore.”

The most notable thing was that Laura burned the diary containing her past.

It wasn’t just that she gave up on regaining her memories because she didn’t want to suffer from the past. It had another meaning. It meant that she wouldn’t hold on to the past anymore, and so she would see Aria as Aria.

Priscilla and Elisier also had their memories of the return erased to some extent with the help of the two goddesses. They repeatedly emphasized that it was not because the old memories were painful.

Those two made the same decision as Laura: to see Aria as Aria.

Aria sat on the floor that day and cried for a long time. Her tears were filled with gratitude.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“thank you!”

On the stage, the top five students were already going up as representatives to receive their diplomas. This meant that the graduation ceremony was almost over.

As if they couldn’t continue to chat in this situation, the girlfriends who had been laughing and talking became quiet. Beatrice also came out from behind me and went to her own seat.

“I hope you remember that today is not the end of your life, but the beginning of a new path. The road ahead of you will be endlessly wide and expansive.”

As I said, this is just the beginning of a new path, and it will be the same for us, no exception.

But we will no longer walk that path alone. No matter how wide the path is, we will no longer be alone.

“But before that, wouldn’t it be okay to receive one more word of congratulations?”

With those words, a dimensional gate opened in front of us one by one. Graduation certificates were handed out from inside. Everyone received their diplomas with reverent hearts.

I opened it to the middle. I saw three letters of my name written on paper decorated with real gold.

Besides the Mira Crate, there are three letters that say Kang Yoo-seong.

“I, in the name of Dragon Erestica, pledge to all the students who have been with me until now… … .”

Erestica smiled lightly. Her eyes were clearly focused on me.

“Congratulations on your graduation.”
