Chapter 91 – Enter Prunar Academy
Absence of new instructor Dre.
… Didn’t make much of a stir.
If it’s natural, then it’s natural.
The only people waiting for him are friends who know Dre and students who bet on him.
Most of them came to see other professors with great reputation and achievements, or genius students who might join them in the future.
Except for a few students, the qualification test was going on as scheduled-.
In the meantime, Gold, who could be said to be a bystander of this situation, thought of his older brother, who would be in the dreamland by now.
‘I’m sorry brother. This is the best.’
Lehfeld asked why there was a need for this, but Gold went ahead.
The reason is because of Dre’s current condition.
Gold feels good.
And that feeling was telling me that Dre’s physical condition wasn’t normal right now.
‘If it’s natural, then it’s natural. There was no way there was no cost to being attacked so much by that catastrophic dragon.’
Older brother. Dre didn’t show it, but he knew he was hiding something.
I don’t think it’s as serious as I thought because of Gold’s feeling, but it feels like Dre doesn’t know what to do either.
He didn’t want to be put in this position with such a body.
If you’re not in perfect condition, you’ll be the target of ridicule…
He couldn’t bear to see Dre being laughed at.
Gold knows.
Even if Dre had more power than he thought, if he stayed at the level of their imagination, he would be laughed at right away.
That was the perception of strangers and the strictness of instructor qualifications.
Without going far, Gold had that mindset.
What makes him different is that he understands strangers and believes that there are other gender-definers.
After that effort, Gold met Dre.
‘I need time.’
Time to throw off the bridle of being a stranger and improve his perception.
Usually, time alone doesn’t solve the problem, but the power of the Heart family makes it possible.
If necessary, I will use my power and finances to improve awareness.
My stomach hurts, but since it’s Dre’s job, El will be happy to help.
Even if it’s not an occasional test, it’s possible to be recognized as an instructor and for your skills.
So Gold hoped that his brother would fall asleep.
To that end, he defeated the guilt and even fed him a powerful sleeping pill.
Actually, the reason Dre overslept was because of his habit, and thanks to Ryunar’s blessing, the sleeping pills didn’t work…
‘Poisons do not work on strong strangers, but even so, complete immunity is usually difficult to find. Please have a good night’s sleep today.’
It was enough until the end of this test.
Of course, you will pay the price for this unruly act.
He will do everything in his power to create an event that will increase Dre’s reputation.
With the power of the Heart family, anything is possible.
Thinking so, I looked at the dragon’s corpse, which was too shabby compared to Frostia.
[Yes. Those who have just been late for the decision can participate when they arrive within time, otherwise they will be treated as not taking the test.]
The words of the moderator who used amplification magic flowed into the room.
[Then, the qualification test begins! The rules are simple! Look at this terrifyingly powerful and divine creature next to me! The pinnacle of monsters! This corpse is the crystallization of the ultimate defense that nullifies any magic, authority, or force!!]
Too much exaggeration.
Gold thought so.
But the majority agreed.
Not a dragon, but a dragon under it. For example, even if it was only about Drake, it was because it often bounced off most magic like a mirror.
[If you make a ‘significant change’ to this corpse during the 5-minute time limit, you will be awarded points based on what kind of change you made! The judges are all the ladies and gentlemen gathered here!]
The host scans the seats with a proud face.
There are influential people who would not normally be able to talk to them – such as belonging to a country’s royal family, or the head of a teenage family with higher awareness than any other royal family.
Now, at this moment, the authors have nothing special.
Whether students or influential people, they have equal voting rights.
This is the place where he works, Fryunar Academy.
A place where even the giants can fold.
The host finished the explanation feeling his chest expand naturally with pride.
People in the room nodded their heads after hearing the rules.
Significant change.
It’s a fairly fair way.
There are instructors who have little to do with combat.
Of course, the one who destroys it is easy to notice, so it can’t be helped that a lot of points are awarded.
[However, even the hostess of this country, Queen Eniris, came to brighten up the event! Thank you!]
The lights that were only shining near the corpse suddenly turned on on the podium as well.
The lineage of the royal family, or those who attend them, were there to bless this place.
Eniris, who was sitting on the seat of honor with the best view, waved her hand.
The sight thrilled the hearts of many men and women.
But Eniris’s eyes were looking for a specific person, not the people she saw.
‘That child. Where did she go?’
Lateness at a time like this.
Somehow, Eniris had a hearty laugh, and I almost laughed involuntarily.
And, the moderator announces the true beginning.
[Now, then, the first candidate… Oops! Is this the appearance of a strong candidate for first place?!]
The presenter made a fuss.
She deserved it.
Right next to the testing room. The lecturer who walked confidently under the lights was a man with a neat, gentlemanly, and aristocratic dignity.
It was because it was Alfred, the assistant professor.
[Professor Cha-seok appears! If you’re going to say it with this person…]
“Lemmon.”
What if your name is called? Alfred said with a little annoyance to the moderator who was watching.
“Noisy.”
[Yes, yes.]
Lemmon was also a careerist and scholar who would be welcome anywhere outside the academy, but in front of Alfred, he could only be a mouse in front of a cat.
For a moment there was laughter in the hall.
For a while too.
Everyone held their breath at Alfred’s black power.
Suddenly, the lights came back on in the hall, but everyone didn’t notice it.
There was something about the black power he radiated that drew attention.
Alfred Aureus.
In his mid-thirties, Egula, who is actually the highest ranked wizard at his age.
An immortal genius who was recognized as the highest rank among those Igula.
He was a master of all magic, but his favorite magic was darkness.
Black darkness gushes out from the body of the person responsible for changing the perception of darkness-related magic, which at first glance causes ominous sound and does not sound good, to be like a comfortable night.
The darkness that instantly covered the hall made it like a black night by blocking the lights.
If this is a combat situation, the entire area of darkness is already Alfred’s attack range.
There were those who admired the fact, or felt goosebumps.
And the darkness that spread in the room came together again in an instant, as if it had never happened, and formed each shape.
Forming weapons, they bombarded the dragon’s corpse like missiles.
Kuang! Kwak!
The test site’s automatic defense system turns on to protect spectators from the aftermath.
In a scene reminiscent of a war… The dragon’s corpse was intact.
At the same time, the blue air current, evidence of mana, swung like a storm. It was a defense system emitted by the dragon’s skin.
Black darkness and blue light mixed to form harmony.
The spectators were at a loss for words in the splendid, fairy-tale-like spectacle.
“Oh my god.”
“Is it really an adult dragon… A corpse or something like that has no flaws from that brutal attack.”
“It’s beautiful.”
Defensive enough to give goosebumps.
Is it low self-esteem? Alfred’s eyebrows twitched.
In one moment, the darkness concentrated on one point turned into a huge drill.
It has a diameter of several tens of meters and falls on the body like a meteorite… Alfred, who had been silent all along, casts a spell.
That’s an order of shock.
Kuaang!
Fuck!
Aaaaa!!
The spectators exclaimed at the spectacle that unfolded before their eyes.
His attack had pierced a huge hole in the dragon’s corpse!
But Alfred held it back. I didn’t like the results.
“…So hard.”
The instructor side seemed annoyed. The moment he looked at Blut, the dragon’s corpse was back intact as if it had never done that.
“Uh?!”
“Did you play it?”
The fact that even unconscious corpses regenerate, and the ridiculous regenerative power left everyone speechless.
[Great! This is Professor Alfred! And this is an adult dragon!! Isn’t this pretty invincible?! However, the time limit is still 4 minutes-.]
“I’ll do it here.”
[Uh? Yes?]
“It’s a waste of time any more.”
Then, without saying a word, he turned his back and left as undisturbed as when he entered. It was so dignified and dignified that no one could think of him as a person who abstained.
The dazed audience soon realized the meaning of Alfred’s words and cheered.
He admitted that he could no longer do anything about the corpse with his own power!!
That is the adult dragon corpse that General Professor Blut has been saving so much.
The crystallization of defense that even that Alfred had no way to give up!
Of course, there were enough significant changes, so it was clear that a considerable high score would be obtained.
‘Heh heh. How about Alfred?’
Blut smiled smirking at his cheeky junior.
Of course, if Igula like Alfred or Emily gave their all, there was nothing they couldn’t do with a corpse.
They are wizards worthy of fighting even a living dragon.
However, in order to do so, he would have no choice but to use force enough to overthrow the entire testing ground, but he would not be able to do that.
Knowing that and stepping back cleanly is something worth respecting and imitating, even if it is a junior.
‘But he’s eight years old… Eeeing… Tsk tsk.’
Even if you come earlier than anyone else and show yourself preparing, you’re late for a parachute that’s hard to get a crush on, and you’re a stranger?
He must have overslept, pathetically, and sadly, it was true.
‘No, maybe I’m smart. If I don’t participate in the exam and build up a long career by continuing my worthless honor, I’ll get preferential treatment wherever I go.’
So-called honorable death.
Blurt just laughed at the culprit’s way of thinking.
He looked at his juniors happily.
There are still a lot of people who are looking forward to it.
He wasn’t obsessed with talent like the vice principal, but he still found it very enjoyable to see geniuses.
Next came Yapleno.
As a swordsman, he displayed intense force and hit the dragon without rest.
It was as splendid as Alfred, but… In the end, he made no significant changes.
After breaking one of the dragon’s teeth, he gave up because he was satisfied.
In fact, that alone was sufficient for Yapleno’s instructor qualifications.
Of course, the teeth wriggled and regenerated within a second.
Then some of the instructors attacked the dragon using their special skills.
However, even if it pleases the eyes of the audience, it did not make a meaningful change.
The instructors bit their lips in resentment.
Celestial.
It was an unprecedented humiliation for those who had lived through hearing such words.
What came next was the witch Emily.
“I’m Master!”
Ashita, who was downcast at Dre’s absence, called out loudly to her witch with her feelings of admiration and love.
Not only Ashita, but the students taking her lessons here and there chant her name.
“Hmm.”
After caressing the dragon’s corpse for a while, the witch takes a few steps back and closes her eyes.
Dig.
A magic circle beneath her, and above her head was the proof of the witch’s magic and the evidence of those who reached the ultimate level of magic. Magic crown. The magic crown was covered.
Numerous magical characters appear and then disappear.
Those who were knowledgeable about magic spit out in vain at that crazy level of magic.
From the point of view of the general audience, it was just a fancy magic circle, and they didn’t know what was different from the other instructors, so they just felt that it was great and kept silent.
Four minutes passed.
It was enough time for the people who were watching nervously to yawn.
[Hey Emily! One minute left…?]
The moderator, who was trying to cheer up the atmosphere, spoke in an anxious voice, and the witch who ate it for another 30 seconds later slowly lifted the island corn.
The hand touched the dragon’s corpse.
And.
[Quaaaaa!]
“Ahhh?!”
“Hey?!”
Everyone who was yawning out of boredom was shocked and overwhelmed.
Shouting causes the defense system to crack.
The dragon that had been lying down jumped up and shouted, Dragon Fear!
“What?! Was Malachia alive?!”
“Kuh…”
When everyone instinctively found an escape route, the dragon stopped moving.
The guy who was full of dignity even when he was dead, now showed off his godlike dignity.
And bow, bow to the audience.
“Huh? Now…”
Then everyone realized.
This is a witch What is Emily’s power?
It was a dragon that fell like a puppet with a string cut off soon after, but the inside of the test site was a crucible of cheers.
“Kyaaaaa!!”
“Miss Emily! Take me!!”
Cheer. Cheer. Cheer.
It was the same with Ashita.
“Kyaahhhhh!
“Wow. Instructor Emily is amazing too…”
“I never thought you would make a dragon corpse come alive.”
Restoration and activity, not destruction.
That’s Emily’s specialty.
Alfred raised his eyebrows at the truly meaningful change, and Blut let out a laugh that was empty and never negative.
Restoration attempted when everyone was hanging on to destruction. And dramatic change.
It seemed clear to anyone that he would get the highest score ever.
The remaining instructors sighed.
After directing such a scene, it was obvious that the audience’s eye level would be unreasonably high.
In the end, after that, there was only a dull sight besides Mullin, a priest who worships God.
In the heat that is getting colder, Professor Blut is a conversion event. Students called geniuses were urged to participate.
Among them were students from teenage families.
The system was released from the dragon’s corpse. A blue air current blows.
“Pour it! Pour it!”
“Let’s do a one-stop shop!”
“Hey Gold! Don’t play alone… Ugh!”
Unlike the instructors, the group is attacked.
After about ten minutes of testing, the sudden event ended.
The ones who left remarkable results were, of course, the descendants of teenage families.
L. Gold. Clarir.
They succeeded in piercing the dragon’s skin, which even the instructors couldn’t easily do, but they had a somewhat confused look on their faces.
“Hey… Dragons, were they that hard?”
“…”
Clarir, who had gone to the exam hall and returned to his seat, could not answer Ashita’s words.
The same scene as Ashita was probably replaying in her mind.
A sword of flame with unbelievable offensive power that cuts through the skin of an ancient dragon like tofu…
Among them. A male student with a messy hair and a sword sitting in the corner yawned.
A male student also participated in the event, but quickly quit.
Because I knew it was useless.
I didn’t expect much, but that one was a bit too hard.
‘Is this a dragon…’
He entered the academy with his swordsmanship talent, but his skill could hardly damage the lizard’s skin.
Do such creatures exist?
Aside from beings like that, how the hell can humans rule the world?
“Wow. It’s really solid.”
“The instructors are great.”
Blut’s event had a good effect.
The advertisements of geniuses as well as the greatness of dragons and instructors were once again emphasized.
In the meantime, the messy-haired male student thought.
‘I thought the new instructor was a dragon slayer… Did you hear something like that?’
There were whispers here and there as to whether he had stopped thinking like that.
“Dre, the newcomer? Did you say Dragon Slayer?”
“Even a dragon slayer would be a corpse.”
“What about the fluid. Of course it’s nonsense.”
Everyone doubts the authenticity of the rumors.
Gold, who was in a good mood to imprint his name once again with good grades, frowned at this atmosphere.
It wasn’t intentional for Blut, but it felt good.
Emily… Was making an incomprehensible expression.
And another event.
[We have a special invitation this time. He is the one who belongs to the highest rank among the Gentiles! It’s Continental Sword Steel Sword Day! Please welcome them with warm applause!]
Top-notch stranger.
A stranger is not a very good perception by nature, but the story is different if you are at the top level.
They are guardians who have been officially recognized by the people of this world and have even been given the special title of ‘transcendants of the other world’…
Among them, it was a celebrity that no one knew about the continental sword.
Kang Gum-il, who came out wearing black amid high interest, showed off a V-jab.
“Ohh. That person must be Ganggeomil.”
“By the way, it’s a privilege seal, what can I do?”
Yes.
At Prunar Academy, to be precise, on the floating island, the privileges of strangers are sealed.
That meant the loss of most of the stranger’s power, but… Top-tier strangers don’t rely on perks for everything.
While everyone is watching, Kang Geom-il, who was looking up at the dragon’s corpse, soon takes a posture.
Sereung.
The sword of Kang Geom-il, who pulled out his sword, emitted a light that made it impossible to open his eyes.
If you wield that thing, a sword strike that will scar the continent will happen.
That’s why he is a continental sword.
Concentrate that power on one point.
“Huh!”
Aaaaa!
The smaller sword of light tried to tear apart the dragon’s corpse.
The airflow of blue mana emitted from the dragon’s scales resists the blade and is sprayed with intense force.
For a while, being pushed back by magic resistance. Increasingly. Gradually digging into the sword… Succeeded in digging into the dragon’s body and cutting it deeply.
Wow
The room erupted once again.
Kang Gum-il did what most instructors couldn’t do.
Those who recognized that most of their powers were sealed also raised their evaluation of the top-tier strangers.
Geomil was not satisfied with that and continued to attack until the time limit expired.
In the end, when the time limit ran out, the tail was cut off.
“Sheesh.”
Applause and cheers erupted, but the sword work was bitter.
Swordwork is not an idiot who relies on perks, but he has lost half of his strength.
In other words, it was able to produce half of its power.
‘I was quite sincere, but cutting off the tail of the corpse was all.’
Even so, it plays quickly.
‘I can’t even think of horns or claws…’
Even if he showed his skills, would he be able to handle a corpse properly?
So what about a living dragon?
Geomil realized that there was still a long way to go.
Hehe, very good.’
Blut’s mouth was about to get caught in his ear.
Now-. Himself as head teacher. And the vice-principal and principal.
Above all, the biggest event… Champion Kitz.
There are only five rounds left.
If this event ended successfully, he had a premonition that the academy and his reputation would rise vertically.
His magic is similar to Emily’s, but slightly different.
As a result of Blut’s dissection and examination of the dragon’s corpse, he found that the ‘record’ of the magic they used was engraved on the dragon’s corpse.
After a long study, Blut was able to reproduce the dragon’s magic.
Even as a corpse!
‘Damn Alfred. You lost this time.’
Alfred looks at the situation with a hearty smile, and Blut looks at Emily, who is leisurely biting into a pipe.
As an instructor and Egula at the same Prunar Academy, he would show himself at the forefront.
There were no regrets.
Another Egula guy.
It was a pity that he did it too roughly, saying that it would be enough if he passed the exam.
Considering that they usually don’t even bother to participate, should I consider myself lucky that I came out in the evaluation?
Blut, who smiled happily while watching Kitz who was waiting from afar and chatting with people with a bright face, suddenly made a displeased face.
‘After all, the stranger Dre doesn’t come. He’s that kind of guy after all.’
The other day, when I said let’s bet confidently or cut off the principal’s warp, I wanted to see if I was confident in my skills, but in the end, trash is trash.
‘You said you were going to leave school? I’ll make sure to fulfill my promise… Huh?’
In the meantime. Some door opened
It was the equipment entrance.
Who would come into one of these sacred trials?
No, rather than that, it must have been closed by magic, so how did you open it?
The moment when Blut screamed at the abnormal situation…
“Dre?”
Queen Eniris muttered.
Since she had a schedule to give a blessing later, and was equipped with magic tools made of amplification magic, the words spread throughout the room.
“Huh? Dre?”
“That new instructor who was called Dragon Slayer?”
“Why did you come over there?”
The Dre who enters… Never gets a favorable look.
It was also because he poured cold water on this hot atmosphere and was shabby and simple, which would hardly be considered a lecturer.
A mercenary rather than an instructor. It was an outfit fit for an adventurer.
Besides, he was in a hurry, and his face was covered with beads of sweat.
“I-that guy is that one.”
He wondered if Blut would kick him out because he didn’t match the instructor’s dignity.
But then Emily stepped up and spoke.
“Dre. Do you want to take the test?”
Everyone focused on Dre’s actions after hearing the words of the witch who used the amplification spell.
In fact, his turn had already passed.
It was normal for him to be treated without staring. However.
“I want to see your skills as a dragon slayer.”
Starting with Alfred, the deputy professor, several students stood up.
It was Clair and El.
“We, the Grise family, would also like to see his strength as an instructor recommendation.”
“…The Blizzard family agrees with that.”
Blurt tried to get angry that it wasn’t time for the students to step out, but the trend had already turned.
On top of that, there is really something about Kang Geom-il approaching Dre as if he were friendly and putting his hand on his shoulder. Eyes poured in.
‘Oh, that’s good. I guess I tried to get sympathy votes by showing my hard work by coming this far, but I’ll make you regret it.’
Cried Blut, who had risen.
“His turn has already passed.”
“…”
While the surroundings became quiet, Blut’s words continued.
“…But!! Originally, it should have been treated as a non-appearance…!! Seeing his efforts and passion that have come this far, I will give you a special opportunity with my authority! It seems that the audience also wants to see his skills. !”
A few clapped.
However, it was obviously quiet compared to other instructors.
There is no anticipation.
Just curious.
Receiving thousands of stares asking what kind of guy you are, Dre quietly walked to the dragon corpse.
Assistant Professor Lehman, who served as the moderator, approached him as if to interview him.
[New instructor Dre! Why are you late? You waited so long! For what reason were you late?]
Dre gave a brief reply to the emcee, who shuddered and pointed the microphone.
[I overslept.]
Laughing here and there.
Ashita bowed her head, saying, “Why is it my responsibility to be ashamed?” Mayal said, “Ahaha.” She smiled troubledly.
The moderator stiffened for a moment, but then calmly continued talking.
[Hey, you’re so bold! By the way, why did you enter the equipment entrance? Is it directing?]
[I was lost because I didn’t know where the entrance was. Was it the equipment entrance?]
Are you gag?
Favorable glances began to fly in here and there.
Cheers to that passionate and witty young man! Cheer up! There were also shouts such as,
[Ahahaha. Your greed for gag is great! Then listen to your aspirations…]
[Excuse me.]
Dre said in annoyance.
[When should I start?]
[…Yes. Right now.]
I tried my best to help.
Professor Lehman, who served as moderator, backed off with a smile, cursing at Dre for spitting in an effort to lighten the mood.
[Get started! The rules are simple! Dragon within the 5-minute time limit…]
[Is it okay to destroy…?]
[Um… That’s right!]
I can’t even hear it all
Now it’s really reached the realm of gags, so some people even laughed while holding their navels.
The content of the test was actually a significant change, so destruction wasn’t exactly wrong either.
In the first place, there was no way Dre could do anything.
[Can I start right away?]
[Yes. Then let’s start… Ah, if you don’t know when to start, should you count to three?]
Dre nodded his head, bewildered at Lehman’s joke.
[Ah yes.]
Haha
Laughter erupted from all directions.
And.
[Three… Two… Days! Start!]
The moment the moderator announces the start.
Skeug.
A quiet gong sounded.
Dre had a longsword in his hand when he drew his sword.
The mana defense emitted by the dragon’s skin, which had been seen so far, did not occur.
Was it such a low-level attack?
Maybe, the sword didn’t even fit in the first place.
“Hmm… The sword is of a high standard, but it’s not powerful enough… Hm?”
Blurt, who was leisurely commenting, opened his mouth.
His gaze was on the dragon’s corpse.
Other people’s eyes were the same.
Dragon’s corpse.
The black dragon was cut in half vertically.
All organs in the body were clearly visible, and mana overflowed to reconnect from the fallen body.
However, neither the body nor the mana could be connected, and they scattered as if they were burning.
It is not playing.
“…”
“…”
“…”
A phenomenon I do not understand.
The hall sank into silence.
***
Oh shit
Fucked?
Wasn’t this what you were doing?
The reaction around me is colder than I thought.
No, it’s what I expected when I was late, but isn’t it too much?
The audience is so quiet it’s frightening.
…No. Come to think of it, other instructors will do as well as I do, right?
The sight was so familiar that it was clear that everyone was not responding.
When I talked to Yapleno the other day, I wondered if I should powder the corpse, but let’s do it.
I am a new instructor.
As much as that, you have to show something flashy that is different from others who have been verified.
What I came up with was game technology, Attack Island.
A wide-range technique that can be unearthed countless times. To put it simply, it’s a sharpening technique that allows you to wield a sword in an instant.
“Excuse me…”
Grandpa Blut is approaching. It’s clear you’re trying to insult me.
You don’t want to be criticized only by your grandfather, do you?
I smiled servilely and took the posture of the balgeom.
It’s all good, but it’s not practical because it requires posture.
“Dre-kun? What are you doing… Wait, wait!”
Ignoring Grandpa Blut who reached out his hand as if screaming, he fired his sword.
Strike island.
Fit. Pip Pip Pip Pip Pit
Spawn a dragon
Compared to Frostia, the sword enters so easily that I wonder if this is a dragon.
Only the bloody gong sounded quietly.
The beauty of Cheonkyeok Island is at the end.
Phenomenon that will occur a few seconds after completing the quick and difficult sword.
I snapped the sword at my waist. The moment you put it in.
Aaaaa!
The dragon’s body went into incontinence in tens or thousands of pieces, and soon became cloth and scattered in the air.
Shoot aaaaa…
It rains blood
The rain turned into puddles and soiled the floor.
I opened my arms as if to greet the audience and grinned.
It was a look of surprise.
Looks like I did well.
I’m proud of you!
Hehe. Did you do a good job directing this?
“…”
“…”
“…”
…But why does it seem even colder than before?
Why?
I’m sure people are surprised… To be precise, I was shocked, but instead of responding, I have a strong feeling that something is wrong.
Tring!
Oh what the fuck
I don’t know what kind of quest it is, but now shut up…
[? God sends a message.
Do not reciprocate.]
…? Huh? What?
What bullshit is that?
To make matters worse, I heard a strange voice now.
[Thanks…]
? Who are you again
Amidst the silence, I only had a question mark in my head.
