Chapter 240 – Chapter 240 Hero Academy (3-47)
Visor! Chaeeng! Chaaang!
“Everyone, focus your attack!”
“Yes Yes!”
Park Hee-yeon and her cadets attacked the cloaked figure without hesitation.
Park Hee-yeon said that the more time she attacked, the more she could feel the skill of her opponent.
While acting as a hero, she has encountered countless opponents and fought countless times with them.
She was the one who learned with her body how to judge her opponent’s ability.
The conclusion she came to was one.
‘Not a normal guy! I can never win on my own!’
It wasn’t just that her skills were at a higher level.
The unidentified assailant wearing a cloak perfectly evaded the attacks of Park Hee-yeon’s sword.
Park Hee-yeon swung her sword and shouted at Oh Jin-ho at the same time.
“What are you doing! Use magic quickly!”
“That, that!”
Park Hee-yeon said that even though she was Oh Jin-ho, whom she had a crush on, she couldn’t put her kind words into her mouth even in such an emergency situation.
“Are you in a situation where you can’t come to your senses because you’re sleepy!? Use it quickly!!”
“Oh, don’t go!! Magic… Oh, I’m not leaving!!”
“What is that… Aww!”
Chew!
After a brief glance, a sword blade with a yellow light passed past Park Hee-yeon’s shoulder.
Fortunately, she was at a level that passed by, but as long as she had a valid attack once, her situation was bound to be at a disadvantage.
Park Hee-yeon frowned and swung her sword, ignoring her wounds.
“What are you doing!”
“….”
Despite Park Hee-yeon’s cries, the assailant calmly blocked all of her attacks without any reply.
‘No! At this rate…. Ah! Right!’
Park Hee-yeon remembered one fact and she shouted at Oh Jin-ho.
“Write that! It!!”
“That, what is that!”
Oh Jin-ho, who normally responded calmly, was restless and pretended to be an idiot that even the cadets would not do.
Park Hee-yeon frowned at her and shouted once again.
“The one I used earlier! Fool!”
“Just now… Ah!”
Oh Jin-ho finally understood Park Hee-yeon’s meaning and tried to take something out of her pocket.
That was the moment.
Chae, Chae Chae!
“Great!”
“Huh!”
“Ha!”
Not only the cadets, but Park Hee-yeon’s weapons were all thrown out of the sword with a single swing of the sword by the cloaked assailant.
The cadets all dropped their weapons.
At least Park Heeyeon was the only one holding her sword, but she also had her entire arm bent back.
And the surrounded assailant broke through the siege and flew a new model somewhere.
Park Hee-yeon was the only one who noticed the absurd speed of the new model.
“Be careful!!!”
“Yes? Aaaaagh!”
Chow ah!
The assailant who fired a new model at Oh Jin-ho drew his sword diagonally and cut off his arm by the shoulder.
As soon as his arm was cut off, Oh Jin-ho fell backwards and began to struggle in pain.
“Quaaaaagh!”
“You bastard! I will kill you!”
Seeing Oh Jin-ho with her arm cut off, Park Hee-yeon opened her sword at the assailant as if her eyes were turned upside down.
Enraged by Park Hee-yeon’s swordsmanship, her students couldn’t even dare to approach her.
Rather, they began exchanging attacks that were much more intense than when several people rushed at them earlier.
One of the cadets exclaimed urgently.
“I’ll contact the instructor first!”
“Okay! Meanwhile we… Damn, as it stands, even if we rushed in, it would get in the way!”
Park Hee-yeon and the other cadets did not even think of running into the onslaught of the assailant.
The cadets wanted to bring Oh Jin-ho, who fainted from his amputated arm, and treat him like a chimney, but they couldn’t dare to bring Oh Jin-ho, who had collapsed behind the assailant.
In the midst of such panicking, a cadet was able to talk to Sung Soo-ho on the phone.
(What’s up?)
“Instructor!”
The cadet informed Seong Su-ho of all the circumstances.
Seong Soo-ho listened to the cadet’s summary of the situation, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke quietly.
(Help hero Park Hee-yeon as much as we can! We’ll find him right there!)
“Ah, I see!”
The call ended right away, and it was a moment when we were at a loss as to what to do while looking at each other.
Chew!
“Ah!”
Park Hee-yeon backed away from her while cutting her arm again.
“Sir….”
“….”
While Park Hee-yeon took a moment to look at her wounds, the assailant grabbed Oh Jin-ho, who passed out from behind, at once.
A huge amount of blood was gushing out from Oh Jin-ho’s severed shoulder, showing off that his lifeline was short.
As soon as he saw the assailant holding Oh Jin-ho, Park Hee-yeon opened her eyes like four hundred eyes and let out her anger and lowered her voice.
“Let go…. Kill.”
“….”
The assailant did not give any answer and kicked Oh Jin-ho’s arm at his feet.
Grasp!
Right in the direction where Park Hee-yeon is.
“What the fuck!”
Park Hee-yeon spat out curses at her and, wanting to avoid scratching Oh Jin-ho’s arm, she hugged her whole body as much as she could.
The assailant, who was aiming for Park Hee-yeon’s gap, began to run away with Oh Jin-ho on his back.
“Uh! Uh!? Wait!!”
Holding Oh Jin-ho’s arm in one hand, Park Hee-yeon left her students behind and started chasing the assailant.
The cadets who saw the scene muttered in a dumbfounded state.
“… What to do?”
***
I gave instructions to the cadets via smartwatch.
“I am waiting for now.”
(Yeah, but I have to follow the two of them even now…)
“… I’m responsible for everything You guys pay as much attention to safety as possible.”
(All right.)
After finishing communication like that, I hummed through communication.
‘Big… As expected, Lena’s skills are amazing.’
[The fact that you solved the lack of exorcism with dismantling is also amazing.]
‘As expected, the magic circle is the best.’
The reason why Jinho was embarrassed because he couldn’t use magic was because of the dismantling technique I used.
While Lena fought, she watched the fight in stealth, just in case anything happened to her.
When Oh Jin-ho showed an attempt to use magic, I immediately grasped the flow of magic power and used the dissolution technique.
Oh Jin-ho may surpass the students in Stra in terms of talent, but in the end, the technical part was primitive.
‘I’m glad it went well. Still, it doesn’t look easy with more than two people.’
[And it seems that those who use magic skillfully can lag behind in speed.]
Dismantling was clearly an ability close to fraud.
The problem was that he could draw a magic circle right away, but figuring out the flow of mana needed for dismantling was eventually influenced by magic power.
Even if he noticed it late, he was able to create a magic circle right away, so he could block Oh Jin-ho’s magic.
[If you increase your magic power, the day will surely come when you can use it easily.]
‘As expected, the number one priority is magic power.’
I smiled and headed back to where I originally pitched my tent.
What I instructed Lena was to take Jinho Oh into the dungeon we came out of.
‘If you think it’s dangerous, tell me to just throw it away and run away.’
[I don’t think that’s the case with Lena’s personality, but I’ll say it as hard as possible.]
Getting revenge on Oh Jin-ho and Park Hee-yeon is important, but the most important thing is Lena.
Because if Lena gets hurt, she sees no benefit in doing this.
In fact, even if Lena ran away right now, she would have made a huge profit just like in her early days of coining, because she had made enough money.
I took something out of my pocket and checked it out.
‘… You mean this is a billion dollar item?’
[It certainly seems like an item worth the price.]
‘Park Hee-yeon… I didn’t even think about this because I was only taking care of the arm of the guy I like.’
When Lena kicked Oh Jin-ho’s severed arm, Park Hee-yeon was distracted by her flying arm and was unable to stop Lena from escaping.
But in fact, it wasn’t for that reason that he kicked her arm.
It was a plan to hand over the orb held by the severed arm to me who was far away.
The beads entered the palm of my hand like a magnet thanks to my hand technique, and with the effect of killing two birds with one stone, Lena was able to escape easily.
‘The real Lena should grant her one wish later.’
[I agree with that statement.]
He was a great talent enough to be recognized by Armonia.
After walking for an hour like that, I was able to come back to my original base.
I asked her Beatrice to go to Lena’s side in preparation for her unexpected situation.
“I got it.”
Beatrice suddenly began to walk on quadrupeds, and he began to run like a dart.
A woman wearing bat wings and running like a cat.
‘He’s an unknown kid. Well then….’
I took a deep breath and exhaled loudly.
“Everyone wake up!!”
That’s how I hurriedly woke up the cadets sleeping in the tent.
..
..
I continued exploring the dungeon in the direction of the other group, pretending to be in the same direction.
Ji-ah Yoon, A-ra Song, and the rest of the members followed me well without even yawning, perhaps because they recognized the seriousness of the situation, even though they looked tired.
As I was proceeding like that, Song Ara muttered as she looked around.
“… I guess there are fewer monsters at night.”
“Or could it be that it’s not there because it’s already passed?”
“Ah! Then, if we continue like this, we might meet.”
Song Ah-ra agreed with my words and continued to speak so that the people around her could hear.
Thanks to Song Ara’s questioning words, she can find no doubts even if she finds another group in a short time.
‘He’s always helpful.’
… It would be great if I just grew my hair.
Regardless of whether she was seen as a woman or not, as long as she grew her hair, she was pretty enough to attract attention as soon as she graduated in all aspects of her appearance and specifications.
There may be some inconveniences if you get attention like that, but at the point of becoming a hero, I had to give up what was comfortable.
It would be more comfortable if you are more comfortable with being noticed and successful.
‘What… It’s your own choice, what can I say?’
I thought to myself, and headed toward the other group without hesitation.
As I walked like that, at some point, an orange color began to come into my sight from afar.
At the same time, Song A-ra shouted.
“Ah! There he is!”
We ran towards it at the same time as Song A-ra spoke.
Another group of cadets breathed a sigh of relief when they saw us.
“Ha… I am very fortunate.”
“Are you okay?”
“Yes, we are fine. By the way….”
The cadets started talking about the summary they had been told over the phone earlier.
Everyone listened to the story and began to make serious faces.
“Are the rest of it all right?”
“Yes… The tent is safe and the luggage is intact.”
I already knew everything about the situation, but I closed my eyes and remained silent with a serious expression on my face.
I could feel everyone focusing on my face, and I opened my eyes and spoke seriously.
“First of all, set a night watch, then rest.”
“… Yes?”
“Seo, Instructor Seong Su-ho. Shouldn’t we find the two of you?”
“… I will find it.”
“Yes?”
Not only Yoon Ji-ah, Song A-ra, and other cadets and guards were making similar expressions.
A look of incomprehension.
“For now, I will look for it myself. If the opponent is that strong, going with the cadets is dangerous.”
“Instructor Seong Soo-ho… No matter how you think about it….
“Right! If you’re really strong, stick together that much….”
“Quiet!”
“Oh….”
While talking to Song Ara, I looked around her.
“Now this is a dungeon. If the monsters come again due to the loud noise, things will get worse.”
“Sorry….”
“It’s okay. Just listen to me.”
“… I hate that.”
“….”
I didn’t think I would hear it all at once.
It was reckless to anyone, and it would seem like an absurd act.
At Song A-ra’s words, Yoon Ji-ah also began to help.
“That’s right, Instructor Seong Soo-ho. If you want to find it, even if you find it after sleeping together….”
“No. If you two are in such a dangerous situation, we need to find out as soon as possible.”
“Then now together….”
“That doesn’t work either. We must also prioritize the safety of our cadets.”
“….”
Yoon Ji-ah and I, one of the two, has to stick closely with the cadets.
But even so, the danger of the heroes could not be ignored, so in the end one of the two had to go find them.
In the end, if I made a reasonable conclusion, I had no choice but to go.
I held Jiah Yoon’s shoulder and opened her mouth.
“Instructor Jiah Yoon. Cadets please. After resting, find the exit with the cadets.”
“….”
Yoon Ji-ah bit her lip and didn’t answer.
She thought the answer would not come easily.
And rather, the person who didn’t want an answer answered.
“Then I’ll go too.”
“No.”
“However….”
“This is the last one.”
“Eww….”
I opened my mouth with more anger than any expression I had ever shown.
“Are you going to embarrass the other kids with your shallow camaraderie?”
“It’s not like that….”
“Cadet Song Ah-ra, have you thought about how hard it will be for the other cadets to find the exit tomorrow if you fall out?”
“….”
I tried to persuade everyone while driving Song A-ra as much as possible.
After pushing her away for a while, she relaxed her expression and said.
“You are not in class right now. This is practice Do not act on the basis of personal feelings.”
“… Yes.”
She was able to confirm that she agreed not only in Song Ara, but also in the expressions of the other cadets.
I said to Yoon Ji-ah again.
“Instructor Jiah Yoon. Kids… Take good care of me. If you have any problems, please contact me.”
“… Yes. Instructor Seong Soo-ho, if you have any problems, please contact us.”
“All right. Then.”
Following the testimonies of the cadets, I hurriedly ran in the direction Park Hee-yeon was heading, while receiving a send-off from the gathered personnel.
