Chapter 563 – 563. Savior of the Academy
563. Savior of the academy
Seong Ha-ri, holding a spear in one hand, entered the Korean branch of Gumokgyo.
The zealots of Gumokgyo, wearing bizarre masks with nine eyes and clad in black, stood in her way.
Seongha-ri looked at them with narrow eyes. Awakeners and non-awakeners are mixed. Killing an Awakened person is self-defense, but killing a non-Awakened person could make matters worse. It is also impossible to claim that the non-awakened are awakened. Because the Hero Association can tell the Awakened from the non-Awakened through their corpses.
She held back even if she wanted to wipe it all away. She can’t go to jail without Yujin.
“Where is Eugene?”
“Did you come to take the ninth apostle? No way! The ninth apostle must be at Gumokgyo! Church members! Kill that woman!”
Dismissal.
Seongha-ri’s lightning flashed from her window.
Immediately after, her foot kicked the ground. The members of Gumokgyo couldn’t follow Seongha-ri’s movements with their eyes.
“Gone… What?!”
Seong Ha-ri hit them with her spear and her fists, knocking them out. She doesn’t kill In order to save her Seong Eugene, we must have information, and we need to keep as much of her life as possible in order to verify the amount and reliability of her information.
“I can’t see…. Wow!”
“Monstrous, monstrous!”
There was no need for Seonghan or other spiritists from the Jinryeong chant to step forward. They couldn’t even follow her movements, let alone block Seongha-ri.
Seong Han-goo, who was watching Seong Ha-ri’s movements with her arms crossed, secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
‘It must have been weakened by the spirit king’s spell…. Still, it’s absurdly strong.’
Seong Han-gu ordered the Spiritualists to sort out the situation.
“You will have to tell me everything you know.”
When Seong Han-gu interrogated the oppressed members of the Gu Mokgyo, Seong Ha-ri could not stand still and wandered around the Gu Mokgyo. She couldn’t let go of her hope that maybe she had Seong Yu-jin hiding in her corner. Some of the elementalists followed her.
Seongha-ri found a wooden cage in a corner of a room and quickly approached it. It was because a familiar spirit was trapped in a wooden cage.
“Mocha!”
Tight.
Seong Ha-ri smashed the wooden cage with one hand as if tearing it apart, and grabbed Mocha’s body with one hand.
Mocha trembled. She knew Seong Ha-ri would not kill her, but her spirit instincts frightened Seong Ha-ri.
“Mocha! Since you signed a contract with Eugene, do you know where Eugene is now? Where is Eugene?!”
“Kwu… Dream….”
Mocha crossed her head. It meant that she didn’t even know where she was. If she doesn’t know where even the spirit she contracted with is, Seong Yu-jin will be confined to a special place right now.
Sung Hari was not disappointed. It was what she predicted. More important than that.
“Mocha. Wasn’t the contract broken? Eugene is. Is Eugene all right?”
“Dream.”
Mocha nodded her head.
Seong Ha-ri let out a sigh of relief. Seong Ha-ri was most worried about the death of Seong Yu-jin, who had been kidnapped. Fortunately, she avoided the worst.
‘For now, I’m sure Eugene isn’t here. Let’s find out a bit more though. She might have a clue.’
Seongha-ri wandered all over the place. Then, if there was an old wooden church member he ran into, he immediately subdued him and asked.
“Where is Eugene?”
“I can not say.”
Seong Ha-ri did not have deep conversations with the members of Gumokgyo. Because he knows that he will not be able to communicate with the people in front of him. They are fanatics who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their god. Even if I tortured her, she wouldn’t speak properly. He had to use other methods to find Eugene.
And finally, Seong Ha-ri arrived at the altar.
The priest, who was kneeling quietly in front of the altar and praying, stood up.
“These are uninvited guests. This is a place to enshrine the nine-eyed god. Please be as quiet as possible here.”
“…… Are you the owner here? I won’t talk too long. Where is Eugene?”
“The owner of this place is a nine-eyed god. He is the true master of the old wooden church, and we are just servants.”
The priest’s mask fell to the floor. The exposed face was normal. Except for the third eye on the forehead.
Seongha-ri grabbed the spearhead and stepped forward, speaking to the spirits behind her.
“You guys step back.”
“We will help too. Seong Ha-ri.”
“I alone am enough. Rather, you guys just get in the way.”
A thunderbolt wriggled in her body as she spoke coldly. The spirits looked at Seong Ha-ri with pity.
“I know you are the mother of the ninth apostle.”
“Then tell me where Eugene is. She has to be with her parents as a child.”
“Thank you for allowing the ninth apostle to be born into this world. However, it is the will of the nine-eyed god to lead the ninth apostle. Your existence is nothing but a stumbling block to Him. Even if you are hated by the ninth apostle, I will get rid of you from here.”
“He even said at length that he would kill me.”
Seongha-ri threw a spear at the priest. Quarreureung! The spear aimed at the priest’s chest with a thunderclap.
The priest’s third eye shakes. The direction of the spear changes and the tip of the spear faces Seongha-ri.
Seongha-ri simply grabbed the flying spear with her right hand.
“Those eyes. I don’t like it.”
Hehe. You don’t understand either. These eyes were given to me by the nine-eyed god. Even if it falls short of the apostles, it is one of the greatest treasures in the world.”
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A spear carrying lightning strikes from the right side of Seongha-ri. A spear identical to the one Seongha-ri was holding in her hand.
“…….”
Seongha-ri was not at all embarrassed and swung the spear to knock it off. The spear flies through the air and disappears.
Quarreureung.
This time from the back and front. It flies from two directions. Seongha-ri spun and hit the spear.
“I tried to recreate your spear, but it is pointless and difficult.”
Blood flowed from the priest’s third eye.
“I can’t believe I’ve already reached the limit with just four uses…. How strong are you?”
“I am not strong, you are weak.”
“This is the first time I’ve heard such a thing since becoming a priest. But I can’t deny it. I can’t stop you right now. So…. I will have to ask him.”
Trying to fool around Seong Hari moved intuition. If the javelin doesn’t work, you can move directly. Closing her distance in a second, she thrust her spear at the priest. Her but unknown power ricocheted her with her spear.
“God with nine eyes. I will give you my all Give me strength.”
The priest’s body began to tremble and grow. Her clothes are ripped off, and her skin turns blue. Dozens of pupils appeared all over his body.
Obviously, it became a monster, not a human.
“What crazy! A person turns into a monster… !”
“Seong Ha-ri! The record was left! Do as you please!”
The Spirituals shouted behind her. Even if they didn’t say anything, Sung Hari was going to do as she pleased.
Paper weave.
Seongha-ri ran and jumped into the sky. A translucent blue force field appeared in the air. Without hesitation, she kicked her force field and maneuvered freely in the air.
The priest who turned into a giant had tentacles extending from his body and aimed at Seongha-ri, but he could not reach Seong-ha-ri.
Seongha-ri swung her spear and cut off the body of the priest. However, the priest’s body, whose durability had increased, was not cut at once.
‘If you can’t cut it once, you can cut it several times.’
The priest’s eyes followed Seongha-ri’s movements. However, unlike the eyes, the body was too slow. Although he could see Seongha-ri’s movements, he could not catch or stop them. Eventually, the priest fell to the floor. The dead body of the priest did not return to its original human body.
“Seong Ha-ri. We’ll take care of this body. I’m sure the Hero Association wants this. It will help the family.”
“Okay.”
The Elementalists took the corpse and left. To Seongha-ri, the corpse of the priest was no problem.
She looked around her. If it was here, there might be traces of finding Seong Yu-jin.
There were no signs of anything special except for strange patterns on the walls and floors. She let out her little sigh as she leaned against her wall. For several days, she couldn’t sleep properly, and after worrying about Seong Yu-jin, she felt mental fatigue beyond imagination and closed her eyes for a while.
“Kook. Hold on!”
Seong Ha-ri, who opened her eyes at the sound of Mocha next to her, glared at the altar that seemed to have been made for her ceremony.
A magic circle is drawn on the altar.
Transfer magic circle. Someone is coming here through magic.
‘Is it an enemy?’
Before long, a group of people appeared on the altar. 2 people and 1 child wearing masks.
Her pupils, which showed hostility while holding her spear, widened. She ran towards the altar faster than Mocha.
“Eugene!”
Her running body stopped. He saw Seong Yu-jin’s golden eyes. It wasn’t the eyes of Seongha-ri’s son that Seongha-ri knew. Her eyes looking at herself are dry. There is no sign of welcome from her.
“…… Eugene?”
Seong Eugene was wearing a black priestly uniform. A round red jewel is embedded in her chest.
“That woman dares to call me by my first name.”
It was a voice as dry as the eyes.
“Clean it up.”
“Yes. The ninth apostle.”
The masked people on both sides of Seong Yu-jin rushed towards Seong Ha-ri.
•••
I asked Cassandra, the head of the Old Mokgyo Church, and appeared with two moderately strong members.
Cassandra agreed to cooperate with my scenario.
‘If I go back and say nothing happened, who will easily believe me? The Gumokgyo members in the Korean branch might be making trouble for me by uttering strange noises.’
And I plan to use this opportunity to make Seongha-ri value me more.
‘People say that you have to lose something to realize that it is precious. It’s a situation that often appears in cartoons. Well, Seongha-ri always values me.’
In fact, there was no plan at all. I was thinking of pretending to be brainwashed by the Old Mokgyo. The orb hung on the chest is the source of brainwashing, and when it is destroyed, the brainwashing is released. It is a setting called The important thing in this situation was my acting. And I have acting as a character. The acting was confident.
I looked at Seong Ha-ri fighting the two masked men. Seong Ha-ri’s skills were amazing. That speed is hard to follow with my own two eyes.
‘That’s not all. Your window handling skills are amazing. It’s like the spear is part of the body.’
Seongha-ri had several opportunities to kill the masked people. However, Seong Hari did not kill the masked people. The reason could easily be guessed. He doesn’t want me to see him commit a murder.
Seong Hari tried to subdue the masked people as much as possible.
“Poor things. How long are you going to let me down? Get rid of it quickly.”
One was already blown away and passed out, and the other was struggling.
“I’m sorry. Apostle. Please wait a moment. Get rid of it soon… Worry?!”
Seong Ha-ri grabbed the mask by the scruff of the neck and threw it to the floor. The knife the Masked Man was holding spun around and fell toward me.
“Eugene?! Harm!!”
Seongha-ri comes this way and grabs his sword and tries to snatch it. I grabbed the sword faster than he did and swung it at Seong Ha-ri.
Seongha-ri raised her spear and blocked my sword. It was a fairly sincere attack, but it was a bit of a shock to block it so easily.
“Eugene! It’s me! It’s mom! Can you figure it out?! Yes?!”
“Are you my mother?”
“Okay. Eugene! It looks like they did something to you, but it’s okay. You will be able to come back Mom will help you.”
“…… I don’t have parents It is the nine-eyed God who made me into this world.”
He raised mana, strengthened his body, and swung his sword. However, this time it was still easily blocked by her spear.
“It’s brainwashing. Those bastards from Gumokgyo brainwashed you!”
“I have never been brainwashed.”
