Chapter 747 – 747. Savior of the Academy
747. Savior of the academy
Cheap
The wind blew. The rustle of the wind was terrifying, like the laughter of demons.
“Harm.”
I said. Kim Chun-wu and I widened our distance at the same time. Black flames soared from the ground where Kim Chun-wu and I were.
‘It’s not an ordinary flame.’
I felt the power of the devil in the black flame. It is a dangerous and unpleasant flame.
I immediately looked for Yoo Seung-jun. Yoo Seung-jun was rushing at Kim Cheon-woo, not me. A red tengu mask is worn on his face, and black crow wings flap around his back.
‘You were aiming for Cheonwoo Kim, not me. Kim Chun-woo must have been a bit of a dick.’
I was thinking of helping Kim Cheon-woo, but I decided to watch. I was also curious about how much Kim Chun-woo’s real skills are right now, and I can beat Yoo Seung-jun at any time if I sincerely step forward.
‘It’s not bad to let Kim Chun-woo gain experience at this point.’
Kim Chun-wu activates Trait Crusade (S). A golden holy aura lingers on his greatsword. His spear and greatsword collided. The one who was pushed away was Yoo Seung-jun, who held the spear. It wasn’t a difference in power, it was a difference in compatibility.
Yoo Seung-jun sharpened his teeth.
“That power! Damn holy power! The reason I lost last time was because of that power!”
Yoo Seung-jun flew into the sky. Not to run away. He wants to gain an advantage for himself. Kim Cheon-woo, who could not fly, had no means to attack Yoo Seung-jun.
Yoo Seung-jun swung his spear randomly in the sky. The wind and black flames generated from the tip of the spear become blades and fall on Kim Chun-wu.
Kim Cheon-woo moved coolly. Unlike the last time, Cheonwoo Kim maintains his coolness to the end. He doesn’t show any signs of going crazy.
“You think you can still avoid it? Diehaha!”
On the other hand, Yoo Seung-jun was intoxicated with the devil’s power. Magical power that seems to never run dry no matter how much you use it, a situation where you attack only yourself one-sidedly. For a game, it would feel like you are using cheats.
Glance. Kim Cheonwoo looked at me. I thought he was asking for help, but he didn’t. He ran towards the forest.
“Kim Cheonwoo! You are already in my grasp!”
Yoo Seung-Jun, who has lost his sight, chases after Kim Cheon-Woo. It seems I’ve been pushed out of his attention.
‘Thanks to that, it should be easy to obtain evidence.’
I took out the camera I had been secretly holding and went in with Chun-Woo Kim and Seung-Jun Yoo.
The battle, which was thought to be one-sided, was reversed in the forest. Kim Cheon-woo succeeded in cutting off the wings of Yoo Seung-jun, who jumped up a tree and flew in the sky.
“Quaaaaagh!”
Yoo Seung-jun falls to the ground with a scream. If it wasn’t for Yoo Seung-jun, his wings would have been restored, but he wasn’t a good match for him.
‘Nothing to see. It’s over.’
Yoo Seung-Jun can’t keep up with Kim Cheon-Woo’s skills. Demon power? Yoo Seung-jun’s black fire and wind are being destroyed without being able to use their power properly in front of Kim Cheon-woo’s golden light.
Caang! Visor! Chanang!
The greatsword and spear collide and bounce off repeatedly. The golden and black flames mix and offset each other and disappear. The battle continued and the damage to Yoo Seung-jun’s body continued to accumulate.
“Aaaaagh! Why! Why! Are you blocking my way!”
Yoo Seung-jun, who lost his reason, let his mana run wild. His body is gradually being eroded by magic. It was Yoo Seung-jun’s mistake. The tight balance collapsed and a big gap opened up for Yoo Seung-jun. Kim Cheon-woo did not miss the given opportunity.
Squeak.
Yoo Seung-jun’s right arm was cut off and he fell down. Yoo Seung-jun’s face turned pale.
“No, that is nonsense. I… !”
Seungjun Yoo took a step back from him. He looked at the exhausted Kim Cheon-woo and tried to run away. If it hadn’t been for me, he might have succeeded in running away. I, who was watching, interrupted and kicked Yoo Seung-jun in the back.
Yoo Seung-jun rolled on the floor with the sound of a leather ball exploding. Dark red blood gushed from his severed shoulder.
“Sung Yujin… !”
Seungjun Yoo raised his upper body. Grinding his teeth, he glared at me like he would kill me. I trampled on his head. Thud! Yoo Seung-jun’s head is trampled on the dirt floor.
“Aaaaagh! You bastard!!”
Magical power comes out. Yoo Seung-jun struggles with his remaining left hand and swings it at me.
‘Thunderbolt.’
Pajijijijik!
“Quaaaaa!”
Yoo Seung-jun’s scream echoes. I didn’t stop there, I swung his sword and even cut off Yoo Seung-jun’s left arm and subdued him with point blood.
“Eugene. Isn’t that too harsh? And if you die….”
Kim Chun-Woo approached. I laughed out loud.
“There’s no way Mine could die this easily. Are you okay with that? It looks pretty tough.”
“I… It’s okay.”
Kim Chun-wu’s complexion was not very good. If you look closely, even his limbs are shaking. The excitement of the battle has not yet left his body.
I aimed the blade at Yoo Seung-jun’s neck. Yoo Seung-jun came out to the cold metal and met his eyes. There was fear in both eyes.
“Don’t be tired of each other late at night and answer questions well.”
•••
Yoo Seung-jun was interrogated for over two hours. However, little information was found. At most, it was all about Yoo Seung-jun’s identity and some information about the Japanese Magician.
“So. You don’t know anything about the other demons at Maruhan Academy?”
“I do not know. How many times do I have to say I am alone in receiving and carrying out the mission.”
“There’s no way Madojeong trusts a lesser fella like you to proceed with the work.”
“No matter what you say, if you don’t know, you don’t know.”
“This bastard. Don’t you close your eyes?”
I didn’t like Yoo Seung-jun’s gaze, so I kicked his torso as hard as I could. Yoo Seung-jun let out a scream and moan filled with pain.
“Kim Cheon-woo. Don’t you want to ask this bastard?”
Kim Chun-wu, who had been quietly watching, approached.
“Yoo Seung-jun. Why did you become a Mine? With your talents and skills, you can become a hero even if you don’t have demonic powers.”
“… I am an orphan In order to survive, he entered the Magic Court and accepted the power of the devil. Without demonic power, I would have become a cold corpse, abandoned in an alley, and rotted away.”
“…….”
Kim Cheon-wu’s complexion darkens. I put my hand on Kim Cheonwoo’s shoulder.
“You don’t believe that bastard, do you?”
“There is no need for him to lie. Yoo Seung-jun wants to survive, so he makes a contract with the devil….”
“I’ll turn.”
Fuck!
He hit Cheonwoo Kim on the back of the head. Kim Cheonwoo rubbed the back of his head with his hand and glared at me.
“What are you doing?”
“It’s because you’re frustrated. Listen carefully. Seungjun Yoo is not an orphan. His parents are still alive. And made a pact with the devil to survive? There’s no bullshit as fresh as that. Considering the treatment of demons and the erosion of demons in this world, entering an orphanage facility is more likely to survive.”
“Lie… Was… ?”
“That guy is Mine. You are an idiot who simply believes the words of the demon. Honestly, I don’t even know why you believe Yoo Seung-jun’s words.”
Yoo Seung-jun, caught lying, rolled his eyes in a cold sweat. Just as I was about to open my mouth to investigate the situation, I held a knife and moved it back and forth in the air.
“Even if that bastard’s words are true, don’t be shaken. Became a demon because of an unfortunate past? It’s not like I’m forgiven for becoming a demon for that reason. Even if I don’t say it, you know, Kim Cheon-woo. If we release him here, more people will die in the future.”
“…… I was just shaken for a moment because I was immature.”
Kim Cheon-wu put his greatsword back in his hand as if to regain his heart.
“Sung Yujin, what will Yoo Seungjun do?”
“Originally, I was thinking of killing him…. Can you kill me?”
“Leave it to me. Can kill Yoo Seung-jun must die here.”
“I told you. Originally, I was thinking of killing him.”
“…… You won’t kill me? You’ve gleaned all the information you can dig up.”
“If this guy dies here and goes missing, the academy will have trouble. One of the students has suddenly gone missing, so there will be an uproar inside and out.”
Everyone knew that I and Chunwoo Kim were not on good terms with Seungjun Yoo. If Seungjun Yoo suddenly goes missing, he will be bothered in many ways.
“Are you thinking of handing Yoo Seung-jun over to the Hero Association?”
“Because I don’t want to make a fuss. And the Hero Association is incredible. It’s easy for Japanese magicians to use their hands.”
“So what?”
“You have to hand it over to someone who is competent, has power, and can be trusted.”
“Is there such a person? I just don’t know.”
“I have.”
I picked up my smartphone and contacted someone. A calm voice came through the smartphone speaker.
-What?
It was the voice of Jiyoung Kang, the dean of Maruhan Academy.
“Aunt. Something went wrong.”
-Didn’t you say that if it was the case last time, you would solve it on your own?
“It has nothing to do with Heroes. It’s a more serious problem.”
A sigh was heard.
-… Tell me
I talked about Yoo Seung-jun. Yoo Seung-jun is Mine. Upon hearing that, Kang Ji-young immediately changed her attitude to seriousness and asked where we were.
Kang Ji-young is the dean of Maruhan Academy. She is a person who wants daily life at the academy to be peaceful. If it were her, she would want this done quietly. What happens to Yoo Seung-jun in the process is none of my business.
“Yoo Seung-jun. The iron-blooded heroine is coming here. Shall we say goodbye before we part? Bye.”
“Seed… Foot….”
Kang Ji-young’s image known to the world was steel. She has no mercy, no flexibility. Of course, it was a little different from the real Kang Ji-young, but it was true that there was no mercy for the enemy.
Yoo Seung-jun, who has no arms, looked at us and then jumped up and tried to run away. I kicked a stone at my feet. The stone cut through the air and hit Yoo Seung-jun precisely in the back of the head. Yoo Seung-jun slumps down on the floor.
“Where are you going to run away? Cheonwoo Kim. Cut that bastard’s leg off.”
“… Do you need to do that? And if you die….”
“There’s no way Mine could die like this. And if you need to, you can use a potion. Surely you’re not trying to say that you can’t cut off her leg because you feel sorry for that bastard?”
“… Mercy is a luxury to the devil.”
Kim Cheon-woo, with an expressionless face, approached Yoo Seung-jun with a greatsword. Greatswords fell from above, and a terrible scream echoed.
•••
Morning routine.
Unlike usual, Yoon Hee-jeong, in a calm atmosphere, entered the classroom. The students, who sensitively sensed her mood, quietly paid attention to Yoon Hee-jung.
“I will give you bad news. Yoo Seung-jun dropped out yesterday.”
“…….”
The students were quiet. She didn’t even ask Yoon Hee-jung why. Considering the attitude Yoo Seung-jun has shown so far, most people will think that Yoo Seung-jun dropped out well.
‘It’s not really about dropping out, though.’
Kang Ji-young decided not to inform the fact that Yoo Seung-jun was a demon. When it becomes known that Ma-in has been hiding in her academy, reporters will rush to her, and Kang Ji-young, the dean, cannot escape responsibility.
I support Kang Ji-young’s action. If Jiyoung Kang, the dean, is shaken, the academy itself will be shaken. This is why I dared to hand over Yoo Seung-jun’s identity and evidence to Kang Ji-young. The academy runs properly only when Kang Ji-young is there.
‘Yoo Seung-jun… Well, one of the two.’
Dead or Or you’re stuck somewhere.
“Uh…. It seems that no one has any questions. Today’s schedule is going to be a dungeon practice as I said before. You will get results as much as you prepared hard, so don’t be nervous everyone and do well.”
Yoon Hee-jung said briefly and left the classroom and headed for her office. I quietly got up from my seat and followed her.
•••
Dungeon practice has begun. Groups 1, 2, and 3 conducted the dungeon practice at the same time. Students waiting were able to watch the progress of the dungeon practice through the TV screen. It wasn’t fair. This is because each group has different dungeons to attack anyway.
“Article 6. I heard about you. Your member, Seungjun Yoo, dropped out, right? It seems like it would be difficult to clear the dungeon with just the two of us. Will you give up?”
Pilwoo Ki.
The teacher in charge of dungeon practice came out and approached Shin Jung-mi and asked. He was a muscular man with short black hair.
“It’s okay. The two of us can do it.”
“Yes. The two of you have prepared it.”
Shin Jeong-mi and I said confidently.
