[Privilege. 39] (1)
Hong Jae-yu’s nerds who were in the classroom rushed towards him. With his appearance, the classroom, which had just been noisy, became quiet.
After all, a child who is likely to go to class A has been injured somewhere, so it deserves a ripple. Because it means that you fought an Awakened person of the same class or higher rank.
“Rejuvenation. What the hell is going on?”
“What? What kind of bastard dares you…!”
As if everyone was paying attention, all I could hear was the words of the youngsters. Besides, her seonji Hong Jae Yoo was staring at me. He had no reason to avert his eyes, so I looked at him too.
“…it’s none of your business.”
Hong Jae-yu closed his eyes as if holding back his anger and looked away first.
‘What is that guy?’
why did you look at me When Hong Jae-yu ignored the gangsters and passed by, someone stepped out.
“No! Just tell me who it is, and I’ll give you a harpoon.”
At this point, he seems to be ambitious to get even a score. Hong Jae-yu stared at such a guy for a moment and said calmly.
“How are you?”
“uh···?”
“Lee Woon-ho. Don’t say it twice. Just don’t worry about it.”
Hong Jae-yu uttered only those words and sat down in the midst of the confusion. Meanwhile, Lee Un-ho, who heard Hong Jae-yu’s words, seems to be contemplating what it means.
···Is it tight?
‘That’s how you put out a harpoon that you couldn’t even win.’
As I was mumbling inside, somehow I started to wonder too. Who did you really hit? He looked at me and felt a bit uncomfortable.
“Could you stop talking there and take a seat?”
At one point, a professor for a class came in. Thanks to that, the situation was settled there and everyone went back to their seats.
I glanced at Hong Jae-yu, but he didn’t seem to pay attention to me, let alone give me his gaze. Was it because of his mood that he was staring at me?
‘What…, is there anything special?’
I took out a book related to the class from my bag.
[Generally, when you wake up, energy called ‘mana’ begins to flow in your body. Although magic is a resource that can perform miracles, most awakened people do not know how to use it, so they can simply use mana, an amazing energy.]
[Magic is one of the miracles bestowed by the tower. It ignores the laws of physics and creates something out of nothing. The ability to control time and space, even the soul…]
eww. my eyes hurt
A book thicker than an encyclopedia was filled with very tiny letters. It was at a level where you had to shove your face almost to the level of hitting your nose to recognize the letters. It’s a bonus that the content is only useless.
‘It’s not fun.’
I thought there would be something interesting written on it, but surprisingly, all of this thick thickness was filled with ‘settings’ for mana and magic.
I quickly lost interest and closed the book again.
“As you all know, magic is a very rare and noble science. As I always say, the students of the Yoosung Academy who are learning magic with the support of the ‘103rd Tower’ are truly blessed.”
On the podium, a wizard in a robe is spitting and giving a Japanese speech. He was not interested, so when he looked around, everyone was listening with their eyes wide open.
Even though it was useless, I understood why. Even if these theories are included, it will be helpful when encountering magic in the future.
If you are an Awakener, you can awaken the power of mana, but you cannot use magic that uses it as a resource. To be precise, I couldn’t learn.
This is because magic was a kind of privilege that could only be learned in the tower.
Fortunately, it is a Yoosung Academy, so there is an opportunity like this. Class C cannot even hear such a theory, and class A can only learn simple magic.
In fact, in order to learn strong magic in the game, the conditions were so difficult that it was only possible after entering the tower.
“Would you like to see the photo? This is the gate that appeared from ‘outside’, which has not been protected by the tower recently.”
To change the subject, the wizard tapped the blackboard, and a picture appeared in the form of a hologram. In the desolate landscape, there was an unknown gap in the dark cloud-covered sky.
‘It’s outside…’
‘The 103rd Tower’ does not call a game or place name set on the earth as a country name. Therefore, the area where the 103rd tower appeared was Korea, but in the game, the place name is set as the 103rd area, not Korea.
With the protection of the 103rd tower, this area was able to prevent the invasion of gates and monsters, but the outside, where protection could not reach, was such a destroyed state and a strange worldview coexisting with Apocalypse.
Later, there are cases where the scenario has to be carried out outside without the protection of the tower like that. The difficulty has always risen sharply from time to time.
The wizard continued to explain.
“It was an S-class gate that appeared after a long time. Usually, ugly monsters pass through these gaps, but this gate was special.”
He said, pointing to the darkness that could be seen through the gap.
“It was eating up the space and gradually expanding the gap. To put it in the extreme, if we had left this gate alone, the whole earth would have been eaten up.”
Some students exclaimed as if shocked by the wizard’s words. Just right. The wizard flicked his fingers, emphasizing his next words.
“Normal gates close when all the monsters are defeated, but gates like this one have to be forcibly closed using other methods.”
When I beckoned over the hologram, the picture of the gate disappears and a circle filled with bizarre pictures appears over it.
“This is the magic circle used to seal the gate this time. As you may not know, it is the highest level of magic that combines both a space and a sealing system that are difficult to learn and understand.”
uhm. It’s a familiar magic circle. Did I learn that kind of magic in the game…? I looked back at my memories and stared intently at the magic circle.
[Special. 39 – The effect of ‘He who has seen the truth’ is activated.]
[Recognize and understand the essence. ???]
At that moment, nausea came out along with a headache for no reason.
“Woah…!”
He quickly covered his mouth, but he couldn’t stop the sound from leaking out. After calming her trembling inside for a while, I could feel her eyes turning to me.
After a while, the wizard had an unpleasant expression on his face when he managed to calm his nausea and lifted his head with a slight headache.
“Student. Do you want to wake up?”
I hesitated and got up from my seat. The wizard was very upset, so he folded his arms and started raising his voice.
“I always say. Know how blessed you are to being taught about the miracle of magic! But in such a precious class, even in front of such a noble magic circle, how dare you get nauseated?!”
There was no time to worry about what he was saying, who was causing his hysterical seizures because he wasn’t a wizard. He barely looked away earlier, but when he lifted his head again, he couldn’t take his eyes off the magic circle.
It wasn’t funny.
Does that magician understand what principle and harmony the magic circle is composed of? Was he just trying to praise how great it is? If so, that’s a big mistake. That was rather insulting.
“—Student. Can you hear me?”
My head started to heat up and my nose started pouring out. Reason says it’s dangerous if it stays like this. However, there was no decision to take my eyes off that magic circle.
Because it was so beautiful and noble…
“ah······.”
At that moment, my overheated head lit up as if cold water had been poured into it. I realized the nosebleed was flowing and reflexively raised my hand.
I had no idea what had just happened. Even the ‘magical knowledge’ of unknown sources that was forcibly shoved into my head right now.
‘driving me crazy···.’
The most serious problem is that the 39th perk, which was activated earlier, is still maintained. Perhaps because of this privilege, he had a desire to continue exploring the magic circle even though his ‘strong mind’ was active.
It’s dangerous like this. The wizard continued to shout loudly, as if he didn’t care if I had a nosebleed.
“Student! Are you ignoring me now?”
“········· Turn that off.”
Barely holding back the urge, I raised my voice and pointed to the hologram.
“I beg your pardon?”
“Turn that off… Go, seed… Germination!”
“Gee, what now…!”
late. The body has already begun to crumble. The guy in front of me was screaming something, but I couldn’t hear any more.
Because even standing now was the limit…
thud!
The moment the field of vision returned to 90 degrees, consciousness was cut off.
Someone’s image was reflected in the mirror.
Pupils without glare on a lifeless face.
The eyes of which the depth was unknown were infinitely dark, and I felt a sense of rejection. The face drenched in decadence is also unfamiliar. It’s my face, but I thought it was someone else’s face.
‘No, this is…’
I felt it instinctively. This was Seo Ji-han’s memory.
The memory of Seo Ji-han, who originally lived in this world, not me.
“…is it a dog’s dream?”
When I opened my eyes, I saw a familiar ceiling. My head was dizzy, so I couldn’t immediately remember where I was. As I looked back at my memories, I remembered that this was the health room.
“Are you awake?”
A low voice was heard. When I turned my gaze to her side, Seoyeon Ryu was sitting next to her and looking at me. As I tried to get his body up, Ryu Seo-yeon pressed his finger on my forehead.
“Just be still.”
With those words, he relaxed his body and rested his head on the pillow. I sighed in frustration and asked Ryu Seo-yeon.
“···What time is it now?”
“Today’s class is over. I just came, so don’t get me wrong.”
“Don’t do that.”
Ryu Seo-yeon smiled at my answer.
“Why is it all of a sudden? Did you even get sick?”
“Okay. I want to ask you too.”
“It was a very uproar. Erron-sama was raging even when you fell. The magic lecture stopped there.”
“It’s a valuable lecture, but it seems that other people hate it more.”
“Yeah. It’s good to know you well.”
I laughed bitterly at the innocent joke and felt thirsty.
“Can I bring you some water?”
“Oh, now that I think about it, I’m thirsty. Wait a minute.”
When Ryu Seo-yeon left her seat, I slowly got up. Simply that alone made me dizzy. The clothes are training clothes, not school uniforms, who changed them. I could see the school uniform sticking out of the paper bag on my feet.
I slowly recalled the memories before I lost consciousness.
‘…the 39th privilege, ‘the one who saw the truth’.’
It was obviously an achievement that was unlocked when all magic series were mastered. I thought the perks for magic would only activate after entering the tower, but I didn’t expect it to appear in a place like this.
‘Is the trigger condition looking at the magic circle?’
I’m not sure, but that was the only part I could guess. The heterogeneous knowledge gained through the influence of the privilege was still sitting in the corner of my head like an unpleasant mass and exuding a presence.
what did i get You must have realized the knowledge related to magic.
“…
But as he tried to remember what it was, his head started pounding again, and hot fluid ran from his nose. I lightly stole the spilled coffee again.
Just trying to think about it will overload you. It’s probably not the knowledge I’ll accept.
‘???’ in the special contents.
I don’t know exactly what it is, but one thing I know for sure is that it shoves magical knowledge into it.
I took out my smartphone.
[You understood superlative magic ‘for a moment’.]
As expected, there was a notification from the system that the change had occurred. Then there was more information indicating that I had a brief understanding of superlative magic, and that I had acquired a new trait. By the way······.
[[Under Investigation of Essence – One Who Sees the Truth] Acquires the trait.]
…This is a trait I’ve never seen in a game.
