*Well, Shinji can really only manage so much when it comes to waiting around and acting like he doesn't know anything.

But it's why he's somewhat sneaking into the areas of LDS that aren't usually for where the teachers should go. It's after classes are over, most people are going home right now, but...

He can't shake the feeling that there's something else here in the works. And it's getting to be unbearable for him, especially after knowing that LDS put the blame onto Trendafilka for the incident recently-- and the situation with the Fusion Course's instructor, too...

Well, this is why he's going where he probably shouldn't be.*

Proof Is The Expressed Desire By The Professor To Attack The Parallel Universes By Synchro And Xyz Dimensions. And The Subsequent Attack On The Xyz Dimension.

Reasoning Is Due To The Projects "Zero Reverse" And "Arc Area Project".

[seaandsky]

*... he takes a deep breath, and then lets it out.

One question just leads to so many more. Professor? Xyz and Synchro Dimensions? And this Xyz Dimension... it was attacked?

Arc Area Project? Zero Reverse?

He isn't even sure he should keep badgering the computer. Just asking it one thing seems to lead to more and more...*

::The scary part is it seems too complex to be mere delusion or fiction, so far, or your boss is that crazy.::

[duelacademynpcs]

This is pretty much the exact same problem everyone I have to explain all this to has, Mr. Samasu.

::On top of a higher platform, a scarf blows on a figure, under the air conditioning, but next to the stairs that curve down.::

[seaandsky]

*he looks. ... he doesn't even need his knowledge to know that there's only one person who'd be here who wears that scarf.*

... Akaba.

I'm guessing there's some things we need to talk about.

[ruleroftheend]

I'm honestly surprised it took you this long to get here. I was expecting you in here last year.

::Pressing his glasses up.::

[seaandsky]

Well, I was trying to not be nosy, but I guess it got to be too much for me, sir.

Which brings me to the question of why you expected me, to the point where I was registered and everything.

[ruleroftheend]

You are a Plus Ultra who could be best described as an Akashic Record or Laplace's Demon.

In short, you have unlimited knowledge.

[seaandsky]

*Plus Ultra. He knows what that is. His knowledge says he knows what it is. He knows why Reiji knows it. But... he can't bring himself to use it.*

... I'd have to say, that's something that you shouldn't have known about.

But I suppose your logic makes sense. If I had wanted to, I'd have just been able to know everything about what this is from the start. Even if it sounds ridiculous now, hearing it.

But I know it isn't a lie or a fantasy.

[ruleroftheend]

Good, so I can skip past that section of charades, then? And I do know, but you know why I know that you know everything. If you want to bother with that.

The question is, do you want to use that talent to skip past most of the point, or do you want to play the role of "uninformed" and have me explain it.

It's up to you, what point do we skip to in the discussion?

[seaandsky]

*he thinks for a moment. Both feet are in now. He may as well dive in head first.* Personally. I hate using my ability for things like this. Which is why it did take so long for me to get to this point.

Just because someone has "unlimited knowledge", doesn't mean they want the burden of knowing everything. What a person is thinking, what they're planning, everything like that.

... But if there's something like a war on the line, I can't really afford to hold back so much.

So let's skip to the important part of this discussion: What can I do?

[ruleroftheend]

Assisting Ms. Mazane, Mr. Yamada and Ms. Makonaba in whatever capacity you can and preparing your students for the Wonder Quartet would be my top requests.

[seaandsky]

*... he lets out a breath.*

Fine. I understand.

I just have one request to make, and that's it.

[ruleroftheend]

I'm listening.

[seaandsky]

I need an assistant Xyz Instructor. Even just one.

[ruleroftheend]

... Within reason, you have permission to hire as many instructors for you as you need.

However, you'll find out why we've been short on staff if you concentrate for a moment. Or should I explain quickly with brief words and let your imagination fill in the gaps for you?

[seaandsky]

Thank you.

*... he considers for a moment. And decides to bite.* Explain it, quickly.

I want to hear how you'd put it.

[ruleroftheend]

Column A is Gokuyama's personal actions have generated a reputation for us being cursed.

Column B is the less hires here, the less chance of Academia infiltrating.

I will refrain from talking about Gokuyama in depth to ensure you don't think less of me and so I don't make my doctors worry. I very much do not like the man.

[seaandsky]

*he makes a sound like he wasn't very fond of Gokuyama, either.*

I feel like I should give you my condolences, sir.

But, I think this satisfies the curiosity I had, enough. Still, you want me to assist with those three...

Who do you think needs help the most, at the moment?

[ruleroftheend]

Makonaba. Project... Wechselkind, I believe it's called, is one I have mild interest in but she seems poor in results in.

... Or when she does, the project results in a local debutante being abducted due to resembling one of our students.

::Sighs with long and eternal exasperation.::

[seaandsky]

*I think I definitely feel sorry for you.

He almost feels like this is going a bit too conveniently... but maybe that's just how life can be, sometimes? Though maybe he should let himself know things a bit more often.

Instead of riling himself up like this.*

Hnm... fine. I'll go and see how I can help her, then.

At least this takes a burden off of my own mind.

[ruleroftheend]

... Also, Nakajima will be informed that you, as a member of Lancers Selection, will be allowed to have direct access to me and him and the head office whenever you need.

Within reason. I am an exceptionally busy man, Mr. Samasu.

[seaandsky]

Of course. I wouldn't expect anyone to just be available on demand, sir.

If you'll excuse me, then.

[ruleroftheend]

Take the exit in the back of the room. Our local 'Ghost' doesn't know about that path. And it has multiple lockout doors.

I'd rather not risk the chance of letting them in.

[seaandsky]

*... he looks towards the entrance that he came through.*

The "Ghost". The source of the damage out there, yes?

Understood, sir.
