Chapter 354 – Mythology Academy
As Seong-il now shows his new strength, their expressions start to turn into astonishment.
“Huh… What kind of power is that…?”
When Seong-il holds evil energy in his hands as a black slaughterhouse, not only Aaron but also Professor Ahindel look at the energy with twinkling eyes.
‘Actually, it’s okay to get hit by a few flames, so start with the Earth Spirit first.’
Shuna’s flame spirit was a bit more energetic, but Seong-il had strong resistance to flame thanks to the ‘Red Dragon’s Protection’ on his gauntlet. For this reason, Seongil ignores the relatively less threatening Fire Spirit and puts all his energy into attacking the Earth Spirit.
“Eat this!!”
The evil energy flowing from Seongil’s hand. The spirits instinctively flinch at the negative energy, which is the opposite of the gentle Sunyang River, and try to attack Seongil more vigorously.
“Where!”
However, the black magic that quickly spewed from his hand hit the Earth Spirit’s torso in an instant.
『Kooooo!!!』
Unlike other spirits, terrible screams flow from the mouth of the Earth Spirit, a humanoid made of rock.
“…Oh my god.”
An evil flame made of black. The power spreads all over the Earth Spirit’s body in an instant, causing it to rot as if it were burned alive.
“Kooung!!!”
As the black aura covered his entire body, he was smashed and collapsed on the ground as if he were rotting alive, and then was reverse summoned as an earth spirit. Even the spirit of flame, which has no rationality in its appearance, instantly stops attacking and flinches.
“What? Are you scared?”
Seong-il laughed at such a flame spirit and rushed at him openly. In his right hand, the vicious blue-black feathers were still burning non-stop.
『Bake it!!』
The flame spirit spewing out fierce flames and rushing at Seongil. At that moment, he spews fierce flames all over the place and attacks Seongil.
“Hmm… Shall we check the flame resistance of the gloves?”
Seong-il, who had always dealt with enemies with a focus on stability, had never experienced how much fire resistance his gauntlet 『Indomitable Will』 Gave him by maneuvering around evasion.
So this time, he decided to believe in his newly acquired ability 『Super Regeneration』 In Pocket Girls, openly get hit by fire, and find out how much fire resistance he has.
‘Super regeneration’ will take care of the minor injuries. Besides, even if I get seriously injured, I have the 『Elixir』.’
Seong-il, who thought so, tried to rush into the chest of the fire spirit fiercely with a courageous appearance.
『Kuwo…?!』
And the fire spirit hesitated for a moment, as if the appearance was absurd. Then, as if coming to his senses, he collects the film of flame that had spread all over the place into one point and starts spraying it on Seong-il as if it were a fortune teller.
“Come!!”
Seong-il looks at the flames of the spirit with curiosity and takes a posture.
Whoaaaaa!!
A wall of flame sweeps away Seongil’s torso. Seong-il should have suffered from the burning sensation.
‘Hmm… It’s nothing?’
Unexpectedly, the fire resistance passive possessed by [Indomitable Will], Which seemed to have a much stronger effect than one thought. Seong-il is thrilled with that solid feeling, and after casting Black Spell again, he charges at the flame spirit.
‘At this level, even if I jump into a pit of fire, I’ll be able to survive?’
Confident, Seong-il strikes the body of the flame spirit with the palm of his hand.
『Kuwooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!』
A fire spirit that lets out a terrifying roar when it touches its body. Despite being a mouthless fireball, it emits strange screams in pain.
“Oh…”
The figure of a spirit that is dyed black by the overflowing flames and gives off a rotting smell. Seeing that bloody appearance, Seong-il forgets to rush at the other two wizards and watches the end of them for a while.
『Keeeee!!!』
In less than 10 seconds, the fire spirit turned into a small pile of ashes and was annihilated and reverse summoned. Seeing this, Seong-il comes to his senses and starts glaring at the other two wizards.
“Hee… Hee!!”
And Yudy meets Seongil’s eyes. She sighs and starts pouring the magic she randomly casts at Seong-il.
“Hmm… Is it arcane magic?”
A magical storm with pure magical power. In response to the attack of magic arrows with an impressive soft purple color, Seongil floats the stones scattered on the floor with his telekinesis, forming a natural defense shield.
“Kwaguagwang…!!”
And Yudi’s magic hits the rock wall like a bomb. As her magic, which raged like a storm for a moment, hit his own rock wall, Seong-il held her breath for a moment and endured her attack.
‘Hmm… Is this the end…?’
As she had made her magic go wild at once, Yudi’s memorized magic might not be long. Therefore, when Seong-il realizes that her energy has dropped a lot, rather than aiming for her Yudi, she glares at Shuna, who has not been actively attacking her, and tries to rush with her fierce momentum.
‘…He’s not a watcher, so I guess I’ll have to keep things in my hands.’
Seong-il, who thought so, rushed at her at breakneck speed, stepping on the chaotic steps of her bankruptcy priesthood, which was now her own statement season.
“…Surrender!!”
“…?”
The declaration of surrender came out of Shuna’s mouth out of the blue. Seeing that, Seong-il rushes at her, then stops in front of her and looks at her with a bewildered look on her face.
“Surrender!!”
“…Why?”
“What’s wrong!? You’re surrendering because you admit you’re stronger than me!!”
“…”
When I made her expression that her sexuality was incomprehensible, she hesitated with a slightly fed up expression and continued her words.
“This… This is sparring! Seeing each other’s skills!! I… I know you now have the skills to do so, so I surrender… I surrender!!!”
“Ah… Yes…”
Since you can’t punch an opponent who wants to surrender, Seong-il calms down calmly. Instead, he gathers momentum, spews life into Yudi, the next target, and takes the ceremony of the bankruptcy priesthood.
“Uh… I surrender too!!”
“…”
Then, Yudi quickly follows Shuna and surrenders. At that action, Seong-il frowns at her, and unlike Shuna, seems to be very annoyed, spraying her with her flesh.
“Why… Why…”
Contrary to what Seong-il did to Shuna, when he refuses to live while looking at himself, Yu-di naturally looks at Professor Ahindel with a look of apprehension.
“Stop it. It’s not a matter of life or death. You don’t know that using your hand against an opponent who declared defeat is an illegal act, right?”
The appearance of Professor Ahindel calmly encouraging Seong-il to restrain himself. Seong-il eventually softens his momentum at those words and shrugs his shoulders.
“All right.”
“It was a good match. It felt like my eyes were happy.”
“…?”
When the magician’s professor suddenly spits out a line full of goodwill, Seong-il makes an expression that he can’t understand.
‘Is that strange…? As far as I know, no matter how close Ahindel is to the moderate, he has never sent favor to the psychic side in this case…?’
Seong-il puts on a slightly puzzled expression. But that’s for a while. He turns his back and approaches the leading members.
‘For now…Let’s finish what we’re doing.’
All leading members who are silent. Seong-il looks at them and starts talking to them in a firm tone.
“Now… Let’s be honest.”
“…?”
When Seong-il suddenly says something strange to them, the leading members look at him with blank expressions. Seong-il glares at them and starts pouring out the words he had thought of beforehand.
“Why do you say bullshit about magicians and supernatural powers within the leadership team?”
“!!!!”
“Isn’t that a real bullshit? No, thinking like that is itself a thoughtless idiot.”
“…What?”
A psychic who blankly replies to Seong-il’s ambitious words with a moment of dismay. Even Professor Aaron and Professor Ahindel look at him with an interesting expression.
“Why? Am I wrong?”
“Uh…”
It is a school rule that is in his head to refute openly. Seong-il starts pouring out the words he prepared like a rapid-fire cannon, taking advantage of the break from the leading member of the school rules.
“Have you already forgotten why those who walk the path of magic created Mythology Academy?”
“!!!”
“Shouldn’t you be thinking about devoting yourself to training while talking bullshit about whether my training method is correct or your training method is wrong? Have we really forgotten why we are enjoying so many benefits here?”
“…”
Two groups that are silent instead of rebutting. Seong-il feels that his words resonate with them. Because of this, Seong-il, who gained confidence, begins to work harder on them.
“You really don’t know what happened when we split into two groups? Really?”
“…”
“Indulging in a moment of unstable peace, you dare to bring out the faults of the past and cause this mess? Really? Are you really the elite of this academy? Aren’t you idiots?”
“…”
Seongil’s sharp criticism left the audience in deep silence. Even the professors were speechless, they too were silent.
“Think carefully. Since when did a wizard or a high-ranking psychic pass on his knowledge to his juniors without hesitation?
Weren’t they always closed to the transmission of original knowledge? But why did they spew out their knowledge so generously?
To be honest, if there had been no crises caused by the great wars and foreign invasions in the past, would the seniors of the previous generation have passed on their knowledge to you so easily?
Thousands of words!! Never would they have shared their legacy with you. He must have just passed it on to his previous students or family members.
Then why did they pass on the knowledge to you?
Of course, they ‘donated’ all the rest of their knowledge to their descendants, feeling guilty about the terrible wars they experienced in the past and the foreign invasions that resulted from it. Am I wrong?”
“…”
Seong-il, who had thought he was simply being cheeky, delivered a speech in straight words, and the audience fell silent and deep in thought.
“Even though you may not be able to understand the feelings of those seniors, you are pathetically divided into two teams because of the fights of the freshman idiots who have just entered the school? Are you insane?”
“Hmm…”
A somber Professor Ahindel. He looks at Seong-il with sharp eyes while quietly sighing, perhaps feeling something about Seong-il’s passionate speech.
“To be honest, I hope you feel a sense of debt if you’re lucky enough to have access to the knowledge of previous generations.”
“…Then what is your purpose?”
Professor Ahindel asks Seong-il, who is giving a speech. Seong-il stares straight at him and recites exactly what the main character said in the game.
“What is it? My goal is to unify the two schools. Magic and superpowers both!!!”
“!!!!!!”
Out of all the words Seong-Il has ever said, the most arrogant remarks, some of them are shocked and some of them are laughing out of shock.
“Why? You don’t believe me? But, I will. Why? Isn’t the academy created for that?”
“!!!”
“Think about why your seniors generously passed on their knowledge to you, strangers who don’t even know who they are, and why they are so frustrated that they bind you together by enforcing absurd school rules.”
“Hmm…”
The two professors drool deeply at those words. They fall into deep thought in their place, with expressions as if they were hit by Seong-il.
“That is all.”
Whether his words are negative or positive, he is satisfied with the fact that he temporarily sealed the conflict within the leadership team and raised a new topic.
‘Fuck… This shit must be eaten.’
Currently, he is not in a situation where he can freely use magic like the main character of the 2nd episode of Transcendence, so he thinks that he must have been lacking.
However, he thinks that it would have been better than sitting by and watching, and Seong-il prays that his gambling numbers are working. Seong-il leaves the hall in silence and quietly walks out the door.
“It was an interesting speech.”
“…Uh?”
The appearance of Professor Ahindel waiting for him outside the arena without the knowledge of mice or birds. He looks at Seongil with a gentle expression and talks to him.
