Bonus chapter thanks to @frozendeagon for subscription to 'Eye of Arrogance' tier on Ko-fi. New Ko-fi tier released!! Now read 20 chapters ahead with 'Sword Lacquer' tier.

The moment I got off the train, something huge appeared before my eyes.

It was a diamond-shaped stone sculpture.

Moreover, there were purple ores attached to the frame.

I realized the identity of the ores and my eyes widened.

Those are all magic stones.

The identity of the purple ores was magic stones the size of a forearm.

Even if I were to just break off and sell one of those, how much would I get?

I would get enough gold to live off of for a year every time I sold one.

Are they crazy?

I was dumbfounded.

If they had waited a little longer, they could have easily opened a gate without spending this much money.

Well.

Theres no way the demons here would know that fact right now.

So they must have spent this much money to make a gate that would only be used once for the midterm exam.

I can see the principal banging on the ground in regret.

The sight of her crying.

I couldnt imagine it well.

The sight of that tattooed little girl banging on the ground in regret with her appearance.

Well, it seems like it would be fun.

It was while I was chuckling to myself,

Now, everyone. Do you have a rough idea of where this place is?

Idea asked the students.

Of course, there wasnt a single person who didnt know about this place and the identity of that sculpture.

The captain of the train we had just ridden had also said that our destination was the Dimensional Station.

Where else would you use that amount of magic stones if not for a warp gate?

When the students nodded their heads, saying that they knew, Idea showed them a sack.

A sack that looked heavy at a glance.

Now, take it.

Idea opened the sack and handed each of the Class A students one item.

Then, one of the students asked curiously.

The reason youre giving us this is.

Because its something youll need!

*Thud-*

Idea answered cheerfully and placed the item she had handed to the student on her own face.

It was a mask.

A mask that was divided in half vertically, with white on one side and black on the other.

There were holes in the eye area to allow for vision.

The mouth area is also open, but

Oddly enough, the white part had the shape of a smiling eye and mouth.

On the other hand, the black part had droopy eyes and a downturned mouth.

It was like a mask a clown would wear.

I dont particularly like the way it looks.

But it seemed like nothing else could cover my face as well as this.

I was already thinking about how I was going to cover my face, so I was grateful that Sytans side had prepared it for me.

Originally, I was going to get a mask myself or cover it with darkness magic

But the performance of this mask was far superior.

So much so that I couldnt find a substitute.

Can you see my appearance?

Idea asked the students as she shook her body from side to side.

Looking at her, I couldnt help but be impressed.

This was because Ideas face and shoulders were only faintly visible.

As if there was an error.

Perception Reduction Magic.

It seemed like a high-level spell had been cast.

Considering that my level is definitely not low, it would be difficult for my identity to be revealed.

However.

What if my allies cant recognize me?

I couldnt help but worry because the Perception Reduction Magic was so good.

No matter how well I hide my identity, it would be worse than useless if my allies couldnt recognize me as their commander.

Perhaps it would be better to hide my body with darkness magic, even if it was troublesome.

I was thinking about such things when.

Class president, why arent you taking it?

Ah, I was just thinking about something else.

Before I knew it, Idea, who had already distributed the masks to the students, was handing me a mask.

Ill use it gratefully.

I scratched the back of my head and accepted the mask from Idea.

I planned to wear it for now and judge it.

Click-.

The moment I put on the mask.

!

My pupils dilated distinctly.

I looked down at Idea with an admiring gaze.

Idea puffed out her chest and looked smug.

How is it? Do I look good?

Yes, the performance is even better than I thought.

Those wearing the masks could see each other without the hindrance of Perception Reduction Magic.

Although the masked people could not be recognized by others, they could look at each other without the hindrance of perception-inhibiting magic.

The inability to see faces was the same as before, but it was something that could be judged by distinguishing each other.

It was a very good artifact.

As a faint smile formed on my lips,

Please take this too.

Idea handed me something.

It was five jellies that looked like red bean paste.

However, their appearance instantly made me lose my appetite.

I frowned at this.

What is this?

Its food. If you eat just one of these, you wont need to eat separately. I used to eat a lot of these in the past

Is that so?

Ugh, just thinking about it makes me want to throw up. It tastes like eating dirt. It also feels like eating insect guts.

Idea whispered.

I narrowed my eyes thinly.

The last part was information that didnt need to be explained.

Anyway! Eat one a day during the operation.

Yes.

It looked so bad that Id rather not eat it.

However, replenishing calories during the operation was essential.

For now, I decided to accept it.

Id rather not ask what its made of.

I didnt really want to know.

There was nothing good about knowing.

*Swish-*.

As I shoved it into my pocket, Idea spoke, drawing the attention of the students.

Before entering the gate, Ill explain the details of the test. First, the instructors will not be accompanying you on this test.
