Chapter 87 – Change (7)
The night wind blew through the fluttering curtains and brushed my cheeks. When I lifted my eyelids, Cheon Ha-yeon was sitting on a chair and staring at me like yesterday.
“Are you awake?”
As usual, she greeted me in a calm tone. Looking at her dry appearance, it seems that she has finished taking a shower before she knew it.
“Uh. Did you sleep well?”
“Who is responsible for not sleeping well?”
“Sorry.”
“It’s a joke.”
“Yumma.”
Cheon Ha-yeon covered her mouth and laughed. Was he so expressive of his emotions?
I stretched once and stood up. It was still dark outside.
Thinking back, last night seemed like a dream. Cheon Ha-yeon was casually sipping hot tea.
However, the flow of whole body aura that proudly circulated inside my body proved that what happened last night was a vivid reality.
Jump over the wall and reach the super climax.
Maybe it’s because of the supernatural ability of the Heavenly Demon Spirit, which raises the realm of simbeop every time you do it with a virgin.
Or is it because some kind of resonance phenomenon has occurred because they have the ‘same origin’?
Maybe it’s both
I didn’t know now.
Dump. He sat down in front of Cheon Ha-yeon and took out her words.
“Let me just take a sip.”
“However much.”
The bitter aroma of tea wafted through her mouth, awakening her spirits.
“Aren’t you taking Mathematics class?”
“The successor of Protestantism receives thorough education from an early age. I’ve heard so many things about witchcraft. Because the Witchbeast is the enemy of Protestantism in charge of the entire world.”
“So you don’t have to listen?”
Nod Chen Ha-yeon silently nodded her head.
“Do you hear?”
“You should listen. You have to pay attention to the Witchbeast as well.”
If you move on to the second year of the academy, you will now experience much more ‘real battle’. And in this world, most of the actual battles are gate-related incidents. Chen Ha-yeon raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
“If you don’t know something, you can ask. Because Protestantism knows even information that has not been disclosed to the outside world.”
“Oh, thanks.”
Widely. I put down the teacup and pulled her up.
“I’ll wash up and come back.”
“Okay.”
Actually, in my heart, I wanted to feel the power of the elevated state right away.
From the beginning of the peak, if you use your strength in an ‘ordinary’ training place, a catastrophe may occur.
Even if it’s worse than the hwagyeong hwagyeong called the hwagyeong hwagyeong, it’s enough to get out of the human level right now.
Every muscle in my body was itching to radiate strength, but I restrained myself for now.
‘An opportunity will come.’
Perhaps in the near future.
I was sure

“Currently, the monster grades identified range from F to SS. Low-level monsters can be subdued with modern weapons, but as the level goes up, a unique force field is formed and resistance to modern weapons begins to develop. Therefore, it is virtually ineffective from A-class onwards. This is why an unmanned person who can cut through the force field is important.”
Professor Chungha put on round glasses and continued.
It seemed that Professor Chung-ha was also in charge of the ‘Mathematics’ class.
…I wonder if the academy staff is not like this.
That would mean Professor Chungha is competent.
Or, it was strangely overlapping with me.
It’s because he was so focused on beating the human villains, in order to survive, he had to beat the monsters that came out of the gate in the end.
The reason I tried to get rid of the villains like Blood Bridge was to make it easier to solve the gate situation by preventing humans from eating my flesh.
Tuk tuk-
Sleeping next to him stabbed Midsummer’s side.
[Do not sleep, wake up.]
“Eh?”
Midsummer widened her eyes in surprise. Professor Chungha narrowed her eyes and looked at Midsummer. Midsummer turned her head slightly and avoided Professor Chungha’s gaze. Professor Chungha sighed heavily.
Because they do that with the same face like sisters, it feels like watching a skit.
“Hey, wake up those who are sleeping! The Witchbeast is the main enemy you will have to face in the future. In this class, I’m going to cover the monsters I’ve actually dealt with and even content that’s not disclosed to the outside world, so I’d like you to listen carefully.”
Professor Chung-ha continued by displaying a presentation with complicated formulas written on the screen in front of her.
But no matter how I look at it… I don’t think those glasses are a kind of concept.
There is absolutely no way that an unmanned person like Professor Chung-ha will lose sight.
“You can ignore the formula. I’ll just tell you the gist. If F-class monsters have 1 energy on average, E-class monsters have 10 energy, D-class monsters have 100 energy, and so on. Then, how much energy does SS-class, the strongest class currently identified, have?”
“…10 million?”
I muttered blankly. It was something that didn’t appear in the game at all. In the first place, the monsters in the game and the monsters that exist here felt different. Was it that much of a difference anyway?
“You’re right. 10 million. Besides, there are some particularly strong objects. The astonished UN gave them the name of a mythical monster. The Kraken, which descended south from the North Pole and turned Siberia into a mess. Leviathan turned Africa into a land of hell. Numerous named monsters who drove China to destruction.”
In a fleeting moment, Professor Chungha made a slightly bitter expression. Then, while slightly adjusting the glasses, he turned the screen. Photos of ‘black dragons’ in brilliant colors, taken from various angles, appeared.
It was a mysterious feeling, as if the universe was contained in one body.
I know ‘that’. ‘Cause I’ve been looking for it
“This is one of the SS-class monsters that drove China to destruction. This is the Void Dragon. Some of you may know.”
Naturally, my gaze turned to the black dragon sword that was placed on the floor next to the desk. It was apparently made with the teeth of the Void Dragon.
“It is confidential from here on out. Externally, it was only known that it was ‘subjugated’ relatively recently, but it would not have been revealed who subdued it and how.”
Professor Chungha’s gaze turned to me. She looked at me and smiled once.
“At one time, the Gongheolong, which devastated Beijing, almost came down to the Korean Peninsula along northern China. No, almost certainly. It was obvious what would happen if it came to the land where people live. I kept it a secret for fear of confusion, but at the time it was a desperate crisis. At that time, the three absolutes set out to subdue the Void Dragon.”
“Invincible predecessor Dokgopae. Heavenly Demon, Cheonweigang. Front-wheeling demon 轉輪魔尊 Cheonkwonak.”
Professor Chungha quietly spoke of the three soldiers.
I was vaguely guessing.
I didn’t know that the president of Dokgopae had stepped forward, but I expected that the master was related to Gong Heo-ryong in some form.
So, he must have handed over a pair of swords to Cheon Ha-yeon and me.
“Excluding President Dok-go-pae, the two of you are members of the Heavenly Demonic Church, as those in the know know. Void Dragon. And after a fierce battle with countless demon beasts it led, we finally succeeded in subduing the Void Dragon…”
As I spyed on the side, the story seemed to be quite interesting even in midsummer, so I opened my eyes wide and listened to the explanation.
“To prevent public confusion, we covered up the facts. It was considered that way. Actually, that wasn’t all. The Murim Alliance tried to hide the fact that the Heavenly Demon Church was deeply involved in the subjugation of the Void Dragon. I know that the cadets in my classes also have a bad perception of the Heavenly Demon Goddess.”
The gaze on the face stings. They seem to be saying that because they are glancing at me, but for me, it was no different than staring openly.
[Kim Moo-gong is very popular.]
Midsummer laughed.
[That’s right. I will pierce your face.]
[It’s okay?]
[It’s nothing but a gaze.]
[Also Kim Mu-gong.]
[Aren’t you sleepy?]
[I’m not sleepy like a ghost because I’m talking about the religion. But who is the Front Wheeled Mazon?]
[…It’s the first time I’ve heard of it.]
[You know.]
[Do you know all the characters as me? A lot of people don’t know. Just looking at it, it’s a person from the past.]
[That’s old.]
I moved the chat window back to the corner and met Professor Chungha’s eyes. She wore her soft smile.
“Due to that battle, the Wheel-turning Demon, who was the elder Taesang of the Heavenly Demon Church at the time, passed away. In fact, the main axis of the subjugation of the Void Dragon was the Heavenly Demon Church. However, the Heavenly Demons Church did not particularly assert that fact. Originally, I also belonged to the Moorim Alliance, so I shouldn’t have disclosed it to everyone.”
Professor Chungha shook her head slowly.
“Was our petty ego really that important? As a member of a political faction, I feel miserable and ashamed. I have fought countless demons so far. There are many places where power is needed, and unmanned people are infinitely short. We cannot guarantee the survival of mankind if we remain bound to the past and confront each other forever. So, please take today’s Mathematics class as a starting point.”
Taking off his glasses, Professor Chungha slightly lowered his head.
“At least, if you are a cadet taking my class, I would like you to put down your past prejudice and hostility and seek a way of cooperation. Since it’s the first day, let’s end today’s class here. You worked hard.”
I almost clapped my hands at the strange feeling of being supported. Professor Chungha is also a good person. Even in midsummer, she looked at Professor Chungha with yearning eyes.
[He is also a cool person.]
[I didn’t become a swordsman at that age for nothing.]
[Shall I wear glasses too?]
I put my palm on Midsummer’s head. Then, he tousled his hair slightly.
“Done. What about glasses?”
“Why? Can I not wear glasses?”
[It’s prettier not to use it.]
“… I’m sorry. Okay.”
Seeing you smile makes you feel better. I suddenly remembered what happened yesterday, and my heart stabbed, but I tried to ignore it.
“Let’s go get something to eat.”
I got up from my seat holding the black dragon sword wrapped in cloth. There were no classes in the afternoon, so I had somewhere to go.
***
“Full.”
Midsummer caressed the protruding belly.
“Do you want some dessert?”
“Great.”
After all, dessert is after rice. As I was leaving the restaurant after Kim Moo-gong in a slightly elevated mood, my pocket vibrated.
[Secretly, the two of you want to meet.]
Cheon Ha-yeon sent a message with an address. Midsummer tilted her head and tapped her phone.
[Secret? Don’t even inform Mu Gong?]
[Okay. To the address you sent without telling anyone.]
I looked it up and it wasn’t too far.
[Yes. Is it okay after about an hour?]
[Okay.]
I don’t know what’s going on.
‘I’ll know when I go.’
Midsummer walked out the door with light steps.
