Chapter 1138 – 1138. Magic School Shutra (7)
There were a total of five Armonia outfits that I have seen so far.
The captain’s uniform worn during missions, the suit worn when walking around the ship, the sailor uniform worn when cleaning, the pajamas worn when sleeping, and even the civilian clothes worn occasionally when going outside…
And this time…
‘… I have to go to the ship and take notes.’
One more outfit has been added.
In fact, there was just one costume added, nothing special.
However, the clothes I’m wearing right now…
‘It’s really amazing.’
It was so unusual that I was just amazed.
Armonia’s coat of arms was based on a pure white color, and it sparkled with star-like decorations here and there.
In fact, looking at the outfit alone, it was just fresh and didn’t even feel like it was exciting.
The reason I find it fascinating is…
‘… Can you see ahead?’
It was because of the strange eye patch she was wearing.
I asked, looking at Armonia wearing a black eyepatch filled with strange language.
“Armonia, ahead… Can you see it?”
Actually, this wasn’t the question I wanted to ask.
I wanted to ask if it was Armonia.
This was because Armonia did not look like Armonia, perhaps because of its unusual outfit that had not been seen before.
Armonia looked directly in my direction and nodded her head.
“It looks good. “You don’t have to worry too much about my clothes.”
“… “Yes.”
To be honest, I felt like I was going crazy, but I just nodded my head in agreement.
You can put off asking questions until later.
What’s important right now is…
“You are… “Who are you?”
It was to calm down the dean, who was surprised by the sudden appearance of Armonia.
I was worried that the dean might throw a fit like before, so I quickly explained it to him.
However, because we judged that the switch could be turned on in strange places, we did not add more explanation than necessary.
“This is a colleague who came to answer the Dean’s doubts.”
“Resolve your doubts…”
The dean nodded, looking at Armonia with a nervous expression that he had never shown before.
“It’s not polite to leave a customer standing. Please sit down.”
“…”
Armonia naturally sat next to me without answering.
‘It looks like it’s real.’
The bizarre eye patch that Armonia was wearing seemed to show the wearer’s vision well, despite its appearance.
Just like that, an unexpected place was created.
‘Let’s just listen for now.’
For now, all I could say here was to introduce Armonia to the dean.
Since that role was over, there was nothing more to say.
And Armonia seemed to immediately understand my situation and quickly began to talk.
“I think I need to take care of some personal business first before getting into the main topic.”
“It’s business… I’m really curious. The person who immediately asks me to do business for the first time… “It’s been a really long time.”
The two only exchanged light words…
‘What is it?’
An eerily cool atmosphere began to spread between Armonia and the Dean.
Armonia is wearing an eye patch and not showing any emotions, and the dean starts glaring at Armonia.
‘… Since it’s Armonia, it’ll be okay.’
The opponent is no one else but Armonia.
If someone asked me to choose the most trustworthy person in the world, I would choose Armonia without a second thought.
Of course, other women will be upset, but it can’t be helped.
The trust in Armonia has long since surpassed the trust in her parents.
Armonia, who received my trust, put a magic sentence in her mouth that could relieve this cold atmosphere.
“I would like to proceed with the story by paying the price for the disrespect the author has committed to Su-ho so far.
It was the moment when the Ice Age disaster turned into a cataclysmic meteorite impact disaster.
It was ruined.
“Under… Haha…”
I laughed out loud without realizing it.
Only now did I realize that asking Armonia for help was a huge mistake.
Compared to what I witnessed firsthand, the dean’s madness… Armonia did not witness the dean’s madness.
At the time, I was worried that Armonia would worry, so I explained the situation lightly and passed it on.
The problem was that because of that light explanation, pure anger without any fear seemed to sprout within Armonia.
“It’s a punishment for being rude…”
As soon as he saw the smiling dean, he grabbed Armonia’s shoulder and spoke urgently.
“Armonia, I’m not particularly angry, so there’s no need to…”
“Suho, this little creature spit on the grace you bestowed on it and even took out its anger on it. “If you keep going like this, you will climb again without understanding the topic.”
“… ?”
For a moment, I thought I had heard something wrong because my eardrums or a part of my brain had tasted it.
‘There is no way you can say that Armonia is a small thing.’
But thanks to the dean, I realized that my eardrums and brain were working very well.
“Her… Haha… Little things… Hehe… It’s a little thing… Hehe… !”
The dean couldn’t come to his senses from the shocking words and started muttering the word ‘little’.
Armonia continued her speech, ignoring the dean who was about to turn on her madness switch.
Armonia seemed to have no intention of insulting the dean.
Just…
“And I am sorry for not being able to prevent the rudeness committed by that little creature.”
He was talking as if there was no big problem in using the expression ‘minority’ to the dean.
“It’s prevention… I’m really curious. How did you plan to prevent it?”
The dean smiled and slowly got up from his seat.
However, there is not only a smile on the face… There seemed to be a bit of anger mixed in as well.
Fortunately, it was different from the previous seizures caused by Claudia’s influence.
Pure anger seemed to be creeping up, perhaps because of the derogatory language I had never heard in my life.
‘Even if it were normal, the reaction would have been similar.’
My patience may have been greatly reduced due to a previous seizure.
Or maybe he regained some of his old personality after talking with Claudia…
‘Driving me crazy. As it is…’
It’s not an asteroid collision, but it’s in danger of becoming a sea of fire due to countless meteorites.
But that disastrous situation…
“I’ve never been allowed to speak, but you’ve been making fun of your mouth since a while ago.”
“!?”
“… ?”
With a single word from Armonia, the meteorites that had been pouring down froze on the spot.
As soon as the dean heard Armonia’s words, he flinched and took a step back to the side of the chair, and I felt puzzled by his appearance.
‘What? What did Armonia do?’
I, too, was confident that I had recently become stronger by traveling around various worlds and gaining various abilities.
Although he did not possess overwhelming force like the Dean or the Demon King, his murderous intent and level of hostility could easily be sensed.
But…
“I heard your talent is magic. But now I see that your real talent is talking.”
“Her… Haha…”
Looking at the two people, I realized that I still had a long way to go.
I couldn’t feel anything from Armonia, and I couldn’t understand the dean’s reaction.
Armonia, who was actually worried, saw her calm appearance, and the dean, who knew that Armonia would harm her…
“Her… Hehe… Really fun… “You have an eye patch.”
Instead, her body was sweating and shaking as if she was about to be harmed by Armonia.
‘Eye patch?’
As soon as I heard the dean’s words, I checked Armonia’s eye patch.
Countless white monsters written on pitch black eye patches…
Among the countless strange words written, two strange words were emitting white smoke as if they were burning.
No, the expression that it looked like it was burning was my mistake.
‘It’s gone?’
The two letters that were emitting smoke burned with white fire and then disappeared cleanly.
After the two letters disappeared…
“Ugh… Haa, haa, haa…”
The dean began to breathe heavily, like someone who had fallen into the water and barely managed to get out.
Armonia slowly turned her head towards her dean and calmly opened her mouth.
“Keep in mind. The fact that I treated you with respect and even wore a precious eye patch was because of Suho’s consideration…”
I wondered if there was a great ability hidden in the eyepatch.
However, it was only after listening to Armonia’s next words that I realized that the premise was wrong.
“The eyepatch is giving me patience, but… It won’t last that much. And I’ll tell you in advance because you might be mistaken… Please also keep in mind that I am wearing this eye patch voluntarily.”
“…”
Rather, I was able to realize that the eyepatch was protecting the dean.
From the eyes of Armonia…
‘… Are they different from your usual eyes?’
No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t understand.
Although we cannot see each other face to face when we communicate via communication, we eat and talk together every day when we return.
Naturally, every time we had a conversation like that, I naturally made eye contact with Armonia.
But what I felt every time I saw each other like that was… All I could think about was that her blue eyes were pretty.
I have never been so nervous as the Dean.
But unfortunately, the questions I had were not answered right away.
“For now, the explanation has been completed.”
“You’ve finished explaining?”
I wondered what that meant.
The reason I called Armonia was to ask the dean for an explanation about the dead (souls).
However, after Armonia came here, she did not even have a proper conversation with the dean, let alone talk about the dead (souls).
All she did when she came here was picked a fight with the dean and burn the two words on her eyepatch.
But contrary to my puzzled expression…
“… It was a radical approach, but I understood it well.”
The dean began to smile bitterly, as if he had been liberated.
And my question was answered not by Armonia but by the Dean.
“Now I understand. I am… As you said, the fact that he is nothing more than a little thing pretending to be a god on dust…”
He muttered, looking up at the ceiling of the mansion as if he were looking up at the sky.
“Thanks to you, I realized. Than them… That there are those who have more truth and power…”
“…”
The dean began to feel as if he was one step closer to the truth with just one glance from Armonia.
I looked at Armonia with surprised eyes.
Armonia is still looking somewhere else like a blind person.
‘… ‘Is it solved like this?’
The dean showed madness when he said he would save Claudia.
But the Dean looked at Armonia’s eyes… Even so, he could not reveal even a hint of madness in front of the eyes hidden behind the eyepatch.
‘I’m glad we resolved it through conversation.’
I don’t know exactly what method Armonia used, but thanks to her, she was able to resolve her dean’s suspicion and distrust once and for all.
I laughed helplessly while looking at Armonia as the situation was suddenly resolved.
“Armonia, it must have been a hassle, but thank you for coming in person.”
There were a lot of questions.
Armonia’s mysterious attire and strange eyepatch, as well as the power that oppressed the Dean and the reason why he has remained calm until now despite having such power…
“Thanks for solving it. “I’ll take care of the rest.”
However, I decided that it would not be too late to address my questions after returning.
Now that all the Dean’s doubts have been resolved, when Armonia returns…
“Suho, my business is not finished yet.”
“Huh? “What are you doing?”
The reason Armonia came here was because of the explanation the dean had.
“Something to see… ? Ah!”
Only then did I remember what Armonia said earlier.
〈I would like to proceed with the story after the author has paid for the rudeness he has committed to Suho so far.〉
Because so many shocking things happened in succession, I had forgotten.
In fact, even if I remembered it, I don’t think I would have paid much attention to it.
The reason Armonia said that in the first place was because she thought it was a prelude to explaining things to the dean.
But it was a mistake.
Armonia stood up in her palace uniform and began spouting her harsh words in a blunt voice.
“I will decide on the punishment I mentioned earlier, dispose of it, and then return.”
“No, Armonia… I’m fine…”
It was resolved at best, but I was embarrassed when another problem popped up.
But even though Armonia had her eye patch on, she spoke to me with a strong will.
“Suho.”
“Huh?”
“Suho, could you say the same thing in the opposite situation?”
“Ah…”
I am at a loss for words.
If Armonia was almost killed by someone, and she was ignored…
“I can’t…”
I also would not have been able to hide my anger as easily as Armonia.
No, she may have thrown away her reason and rushed straight to her opponent and tried to kill him.
The same goes for other women besides Armonia.
I can tolerate being insulted, but I can never tolerate seeing someone I love being insulted.
I was embarrassed.
And at the same time, I felt good.
‘That’s good. It means that Armonia also trusts me. But…’
But just because she felt good didn’t mean the discomfort went away.
As Armonia and I continued to have an uncomfortable conversation, the dean across from us came to his senses and asked Armonia.
“It’s the price of sin… Are you really going to die now?”
As soon as the dean finished speaking, he started laughing self-deprecatingly.
The greatest punishment for a person is death, but the dean actually wants death.
The dean seemed to be devastated by the fact that he had said such a thing.
Armonia answered in an emotionless voice despite the dean’s appearance.
“The punishment currently being considered as a priority is change.”
“Change… ?”
“I plan to ask those in charge of you to entrust this world to someone other than you.”
“Under… Hehe… ! How is that different from death?”
As the dean said, changing the main character here meant death.
The dean’s lifelong wish.
But that long-awaited wish…
“Hehe… At best, I got some hope… “It was taken away by my foolish atrocities.”
It had been reburied by Claudia.
However, the dean was not angry at Armonia’s words…
“My next friend is going to be pretty tough. I’ll have to endure it for as long as I endured it…”
I just let out a self-mocking laugh.
The dean is unable to properly show his anger, let alone his madness.
‘… The atmosphere has completely changed.’
It seemed that Armonia had really put pressure on him.
But the dean’s face, filled with such a self-deprecating smile…
“You don’t have to worry about that. The person I am requesting is…
As soon as I heard Armonia’s words, I began to rot once again.
“Unlike you, she is a woman who held on with a strong will even though she was trapped in one place for hundreds of years. So, I think it will survive for a few thousand years without any problems.”
