Chapter 39 – Mine (5)
There was no force in the body. When he ran out of mana, he collapsed from the exhaustion that came. On top of that, the recoil was severe because I used several layers of masks.
It was fortunate that the mad dog ignorantly attacked at the end with only force. Because you can counter it with parrying.
I looked at the spot where the mad dog had been. His corpse disappeared, and what looked like burnt ash stood in its place.
When Mine dies, she does not leave her corpse and turns to ashes like that.
I glanced around. The stalemate had turned into a mess. Exercise equipment was flying everywhere, and half of the facilities were destroyed. The window side was completely pierced in the aftermath of the fight between Yoon Chae-rin and the mad dog. I’m sorry.
I looked up at the ceiling. The phenomenon of space shuffling had disappeared. He must have gone to report to the owner. A murmur was heard from all directions. Students will be coming here soon.
I stopped when I tried to get up. It was because Han Jong-woo, with bluish skin, pretended to be resolute and arrogantly sat on the debris. In other words, he was trembling for feed.
“Hey.”
“…What.”
Looking at Han Jong-woo, he opened his mouth and reacted slowly. It looked worse than expected.
I took off my necklace and threw it. The thrown necklace landed on Han Jong-woo’s neck. Seeing that I couldn’t even react, it must have been really hard. Perhaps it was because of the poison resistance on the necklace, but her complexion seemed a little relaxed.
“Thank you.”
“It’s not giving, it’s lending.”
“…No, of course. I know.”
I’m worried about the late reply.
I woke up week after week. I could see Yoon Seung-ha coming riding the wind spirit from the open side. His eyes deepened a bit, and the atmosphere changed. It is proof that he successfully acquired the skill.
“Is everyone okay?”
“I’m glad I didn’t die.”
Yoon Chae-rin sighed and then she said. In the first place, that was wrong. If it was more dangerous, other people would have intervened. There is also Grande Hill, but above all, this is the principal’s courtyard. You’re probably watching the fight right now.
“Well, this is good enough.”
“Okay. I saw you again.”
“…Me?”
“Well. I was fighting well. Especially at the end, the mystery using the competent steel was great. It was a bit difficult to cut the neck with the sword with the sword.”
“Siwoo’s technique is good.”
Lim Na-yeon responded to Yoon Chae-rin’s words. Her words are a bit odd. Eun Soo-ah put on a proud expression for some reason.
Why are you proud I wondered and looked.
I recalled the incident after this. The school is in an emergency due to the invasion of the demons, and while the school is sealed off for a week, the main characters go to practice or play somewhere. But now it’s midterm period. There were still more than two weeks left until the midterm exam, but I didn’t think I would take a week off before the midterm exam.
I brushed off the hem of my clothes. I approached Ash, who had been decapitated by me earlier and was in ashes. I picked up a nearby half-burnt, stick or something and poked it through the ashes. It was because it was reluctant to touch the ashes with her hands.
After digging through the ashes a few times, something caught. I pulled out the stuck object with a stick. There was a cell phone in the ashes. I looked at my cell phone.
“…Hmm.”
I picked it up and put it in my pocket.
“What cell phone?”
Yoon Seung-ha asked from the side. All of a sudden, his eyes were focused on me.
“Have you forgotten why we fought?”
“…Ah.”
At my words, Yoon Seung-ha put on an expression of understanding. Hypnosis app. I had a fight over my phone with this on it.
“A hypnosis app?”
Yoon Chae-rin came to me and asked. I nodded and put it in my pocket.
“What, why are you taking it? Are you going to use it? Is there a girl you’re interested in? A girl who wants to use it by force?”
Yoon Chae-rin poked my waist with her elbow and said with her meaningful smile. As she uttered the words, the people around her reacted. Im Na-yeon looked at me with trembling eyes, and Eun-soo-ah and Yoon Seung-ha were startled for a moment.
“I have to submit it. I’m keeping it because someone can use it.”
“Aren’t you writing?”
I shook my head. While using a hypnosis app has the advantage of being able to manipulate other people at will, the disadvantages are worse than that. It can kill you if you use it incorrectly.
And I don’t want to die
“I don’t intend to use it. It could be a trap to contract with the devil.”
“…And that too.”
Yoon Chae-rin walked around her hair as if she had lost interest. I also moved with her on her. Because her footsteps and chatter could be heard here and there.
What’s annoying is the specifications.

In the empty space where there was nothing, space fluctuated like a wave. A woman in a maid outfit with her grayish hair pulled up emerged. Grandehill looked around. Students were running all over the place.
We were surprised by the sound of the explosion, but each of us took our weapons and headed towards the source of the explosion.
The students around her do not notice her presence even when they pass right by.
“Grande Hill?”
She turned her head at her harsh cry. For the first time, she saw a purple light. Song Ra-hee, a witch who received the title of purple meaning ‘perm’ in the ivory tower. She addressed her, armed with an elongated staff studded with purple gems that boasted the size of her face.
“Did you hear the explosion sound a moment ago? Did the demons that attacked the strong professor appear?”
“Yes, I’ve already solved it.”
“Where the hell are you… Solved? Who the hell are you?”
When asked back in a blank voice, she answered calmly.
“Students took care of it. I think they were there just in time. Yoon Seung-ha, Yoon Chae-rin, Eun-soo-ah, Han Jong-woo, Lim Na-yeon…”
“With only 6 first year students to build the septum…?”
He asked with a blank expression. “Thank you,” Song Ra-hee said, and bowed her head. She then disappeared in a purple glow.
Grandehill thought of Song Ra-hee for a moment. Even if he pretended to be strong, he seemed to be interested in Professor Kang. But isn’t Professor Kang Kang-ja married? Well, it doesn’t matter. Grandehill quietly walked to her master.
Sigh.
As I approached, the door opened spontaneously. I looked at the queen sitting quietly in the center.
Shiny green hair and green eyes. It was a manifestation of intelligence. A special ability that can only be used by the Fairy Queen, who is said to be the owner of the World Tree.
He looked at her with her lofty eyes that saw through her logic.
“Thank you for your effort.”
“No, of course.”
Grande Hill quietly lowered her head and said. Seeing that, Titania smiled slightly.
“How was the child?”
“I do not know.”
Grandehill answered Titania’s question. I don’t know. At first, she seemed like a smart student, but looking back today, she has grown beyond belief. It is said that children at that age grow quickly, but student Lee Si-woo took a different step. And his ability to write was also strange. It’s like
“I guess so. He looks normal on the outside.”
Titania muttered and thought about it. It wasn’t the first time. There were some things she couldn’t even see through with her eyes.
‘But the target is.’
It was very limited. Even if you search the whole world, you won’t get more than one hand. It was such that her eyes could not see through. Her ability has been honed over 800 years.
How shocked I was when I first realized it.
So I watched carefully. Even as a few scholarship students. But the more I looked, the more I couldn’t figure it out.
Like a foggy scene on a dark night, something was in the way.
Because it has great abilities. I don’t think I’m really familiar with that ability.
“Queen.”
The quiet call of Grande Hill woke Titania from her thoughts. The magic that uses her supernatural powers was dissipated, and she returned to her golden hair again.
“I have something to report.”
Grande Hill opened her mouth.
“It’s been fun.”
Upon hearing her report, Titania muttered and raised the corners of her mouth.
***
Way to the dormitory. She sat on a bench under a tree-lined avenue.
I took out Ash’s cell phone. When I turned on the power, the background screen appeared. There was no password. There are many applications on the phone.
Ugh. The cell phone vibrated and a notification sounded that KakaoTalk had arrived.
I secretly turned on KakaoTalk.
I felt guilty. It’s a criminal act, but wouldn’t it be okay if I could catch more mines through KakaoTalk?
A group chat room where only professors gather, starting with Hodong and the strong. There were quite a few chat rooms. I checked the chat with Kim Ho-dong.
[Kim Ho-dong]
[Professor]
[Professor doesn’t remember, so I’ll say it again.]
[I like that professor.]
.
.
.
[Come on… You’re not a careless kid.]
[Strong man]
[Professor Kim. I accidentally got two theater tickets from a friend saying ‘I’m still living’…]
“…”
I think I saw something in the abyss that I shouldn’t have peeked into.
I kept knocking down. Strangely, he is an ash man, but there were many men who were twisted. Even though he looks pretty on the outside, he knows that almost all of them are men, so why…
There was nothing to be gained by knocking down. Are there any letters left? There were several spam text messages. There was no conversation with a private person. Well, who texts me these days…
[Kim Woo-jin]
[Ash-sama, I found that person]
He was a familiar person. I could see the man who had previously commissioned Kim Ho-dong. I skimmed the text.
That person.
Did you already find Kim Si-yeon? But there’s still a month left for the incident to happen?
I thought quietly. Shall I text you pretending to be Ash?
The case was not as big as expected. It ended much more quietly than a raid in which 10% of the student body was killed, two professors were killed, and an auditorium was half destroyed. The only casualties were Mine. It seems that the academy will handle it quietly. But they weren’t the only ones who witnessed it. Students can take pictures and post them on the Internet.
It was a moment when I was thinking about what to do.
Whoops.
A text came to my cell phone. When I checked, it was a message saying that next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday would be changed to days off.
