Chapter 355 – Mythology Academy

The image of Professor Ahindel waiting for him outside the arena without even knowing the rats. He talks to him with a gentle look on his holy day.

“Unify the ideologies of both sides…”

“…”

In fact, since he did not know how to really integrate, Seong-il quietly shuts his mouth to his self-talk.

“…Do you think you deserve to say that?”

“Ah… I’m working hard. I’m also trying to read books related to magic…”

“I don’t mean that.”

“Yes…?”

“You… Use interesting powers?”

Seong-il, who thought he was probably talking about his black horse. Because of this, he tries to answer him while thinking about the excuse he prepared in advance.

“Ah, that black power? That’s… Originally, I forcibly reversed the power I had with a specific technique, and the opposite properties…”

“No, the power of the sound dimension was very interesting… But I’m not talking about that.”

“…?”

Seong-il was momentarily taken aback when he was told that he was not talking about the Black Slaughterhouse. Looking at him like that, Ahindel smiled strangely and asked him a question.

“…You, even though it’s only one thing, you use magic naturally? Maybe it’s like ‘acceleration’.”

“!!”

At Ahindel’s words, Seong-il flinched and began to sink.

“Hmm…”

“Well, it wasn’t a classic form of magic use, it was more like a psychic’s unique spontaneous use of ability, or the feeling of using a magic scroll, but the mechanism was definitely acceleration.”

“…”

“What’s more interesting is that it felt very different from the popular acceleration that wizards currently use? A little different in focus… How to say, it’s like magic created separately from an isolated school?”

Professor Ahindel accurately pinpoints the difference between the engraving magic written by Seong-il. Using the power of the tattoo on his back, Seong-il not only uses advanced acceleration, but also surprises Seong-il by understanding that the mechanism is slightly different due to being a magician from another world.

‘The faculty here are truly insightful. First of all, I can’t break his logic, so I’ll stick out my flippers and see.’

Professor Aaron and even Professor Ahindel. The faculty of Mythology Academy, who are not easygoing. Seong-il admires their ability inwardly and shamelessly begins to answer.

“Um… I wonder if it’s an illusion?”

“…What?”

“To be clear, I swear I never used ‘acceleration’ magic with my ‘native’ ability.”

“Hmm…”

Professor Ahindel looks at Seong-il expressionlessly with his unique blue eyes. He put on a worried expression for a moment and then asked him.

“Then what is the power of that glove?”

‘Fuck, you know this too?’

As he seems to be able to see through the imprint magic as well as the gauntlet, Seong-il feels goosebumps at his insight.

“…Well, they’re enchanted gloves. Was it against the law to use artifacts during sparring? I didn’t know that. No one explained it.”

“Well… According to the principle, you shouldn’t use artifacts during sparring. However, the sparring you’ve been through this time is against you, so I can’t blame anyone for a trick like that.”

“If that’s the case…Anyway, these gloves are the ‘only’ magic item I’ve ever used during sparring. They protect my hands and give me strong resistance to fire. I swear I’ve never used any other ‘item’.”

“Hmm…”

‘Surprisingly, the truth is much more effective than lies when dealing with such rude people.’

‘In that sense, as a result, Yuna’s magic imprint is neither an ‘ability’ nor an ‘item’, so I’m not lying.’

Seong-il knew from past experience that for a seasoned opponent, the slightly twisted truth is the most effective deception. Because of this, he skillfully hides information about the imprinting magic and tries his best to confuse him by answering only other truths.

“You don’t like to talk.”

“!!”

“I understand the magical curiosity about new things, but even so, isn’t it taboo to use that as an excuse to inquire into other people’s visions?”

“…”

Professor Aaron, who escapes from the arena and intervenes in the conversation between the two. He wears his characteristic lofty expression and politely scolds Professor Ahindel.

“Listening to it earlier, it looks like a junior with a dream big enough to surprise even us, but he might be practicing something secretly.”

“Um…”

“But isn’t it too scrupulous to ask such a thing? As a seeker, you might be secretly researching a new path that no one knows about, but to think about digging it out.”

“…I didn’t mean that.”

Ahindel shook his shoulders at Professor Aaron’s criticism and stepped back.

He thought that if he had been asked the same question, he would have hidden it unconditionally.

“Enough then.”

After saying that, Ahindel leaves his hall and leaves for his professor’s office.

“You’ve been through a lot.”

“No.”

“Kuh-kuh… I told him to give his soul to me if there was a fuss, but I didn’t expect it to cause such a fuss.”

“…”

“Oh, I’m not criticizing you. I just think it’s funny.”

“Ah… Yes…”

“But…”

Professor Aaron feigns compliment, then suddenly hardens his expression and addresses him in a serious tone.

“By the way… Do you think the strange power that flowed from your back during the sparring earlier was your original vision? Professor Ahindel must have asked about that. Listening to the conversation just now, was the identity of that power magic? “

“!!”

“Don’t be surprised. I have no intention of probing what it is.

“Hmm…”

“However, it seems that there is a limit to its use. Is it unfinished? If not, I wouldn’t have used it sparingly.”

“…!!”

“It didn’t seem like it used a lot of magic power, so if there weren’t some restrictions, I wouldn’t have used it sparingly…”

In that brief moment, Professor Aron seemed to have grasped the imprinting magic and its limitations. His Seong-il starts to get a little nervous at that appearance.

“Okay. No need to be nervous. I won’t talk to anyone.”

“Ah yes…”

“Well… With that level of secrecy and skill, you’ll be able to spit out the dream-like sound of integrating the theories of the two schools.”

“…”

“But…”

“…?”

“You’re not good at hiding your powers. I need to learn that.”

“Um… Can you tell me how to do it?”

On the day of the practical test, the first time he saw Professor Aaron, Seong-il recalls how he saw through his abilities. Therefore, Seong-il carefully asks him what he has been curious about.”

“It’s easy. It’s not difficult to tell.”

“Oh!!! Then…”

“I can’t because I’m busy today. It’s knowledge that not only you, but also other freshmen, need to learn anyway, so make sure to attend the next introductory tactics class. Then, I’ll teach you about the technology in the form of extracurricular training.”

“Thank you!!”

Seong-il expresses his sincere gratitude to Professor Aron, who readily accepts his request.

“Then let’s see next time.”

Professor Aron shrugged his shoulders in response to Seongil’s gratitude. He, too, leaves the hall and starts going somewhere.

“Phew…”

As soon as the situation seems to be over, Seong-il looks towards the exit with a tired expression.

‘Fuck, it looks like he succeeded in fucking the watchers. The process is so rough that it’s a bit embarrassing to go into an insolvency room.’

She felt that the way she did it was a little rude, so Seong-il tried to return to her dormitory immediately without going back to her leading room.

“Where are you going? Seongil-kun?”

“…Ah, manager.”

Claudia comes out of the club room and holds on to Seongil. Her Seong-il gives her a slightly shy smile and blurs her words.

“Did you forget to interview me?”

“Ah… What…”

“Let’s go to a quiet place for now!”

“Yes.”

There was a promise made in advance, so I didn’t even refuse it. Because of this, instead of making excuses, he calmly follows Claudia.

“Now… Have a cup of tea.”

Claudia sits Seong-il in the neat drawing room and brings tea from somewhere. She puts an antique teacup in front of Seongil’s eyes and tells him.

“First of all…”

Gulp.

Seong-il is already worried about what to say. He looks at Claudia with a nervous expression.

“I would like to apologize to Seongil.”

“…Yes?”

When she suddenly apologizes to him, Seong-il puts on an absurd expression. Claudia, who may have read the thoughts of such a holy day, puts on a unique alluring expression and she continues her words to him.

“First of all… I realized a lot today when Seongil said he would integrate the theories of the two factions.”

“Hmm…”

“Although the expression was rough… In fact, Seongil-gun was right. The reason this academy was founded in the first place was unity and reconciliation. However, recently, I realized today that the two factions are still haunted by the ghosts of the past. I should have evolved it…But I…”

Claudia seems to blame herself for not evolving the subtle conflicts within her lead department beforehand.

‘Actually, what can I say that it’s Claudia’s fault. It’s only been about half a year since she took over as her leading manager.’

‘Even last fall, I officially took over as her general manager. In other words, it was only one semester before the winter break, so the period of activity with actual authority was less than two months.’

It was self-evident that when she was an ordinary executive, her powers were small, and the influence she could exert within her department was small.

Therefore, Seong-il, who was aware of her situation in advance through her gameplay, looked at her with a little pity and replied.

“No. Even though I’m a wizard, I can get a glimpse of the manager’s fairness just by looking at him trying to scout me, a first year psychic.”

“Ohohohoho!! Thank you.”

Seong-il’s sincerity may have come through, but Claudia’s usual lofty appearance returns. Seeing her attractive appearance, Seong-il naturally feels her heart warming.

“But… I’m a bit worried that Seongil-gun won’t be able to form a smooth human relationship with the members in the future!”

“Well… I just need the manager’s trust. I honestly don’t care about my relationship with the other members. All I care about is my relationship with the manager.”

“!!”

Seong-il just spit out his thoughts without thinking. In fact, it was because he had no affection for her leading figures other than her heroine, and he did not particularly feel the importance of her human relationships.

However, did the words feel strange? A strange blush begins to appear on Claudia’s face.

‘…What’s with the face?’

The sudden blush on her face makes her Seong-il realize that she has said something misleading. That time when Seong-il tries to clear up misunderstandings by going behind the scenes.

“That… That’s right!! Oh… Oh hohoho!! That… That’s right! The leader… As the alpha and omega of the leadership team, all you need is support!! Oh hohoho!!”

‘…I don’t know.’

When Claudia seems to have misunderstood, her seong-il just gives up on excuses. Instead, he starts tossing out some advice he had prepared for her beforehand.

“I want the general manager to show a more resolute appearance when ideological disputes between members occur in the future.”

“Um… That’s…”

“I know. Before that, I couldn’t do it because I could give useless misunderstandings to both factions.”

“…”

“If you blame the wizard faction, it seems like you’re suppressing it with authority, and if you blame the psychic, you might be worried that you’ll be misunderstood that you’re on the side of the wizard because you’re a wizard.

“Seongil-kun…!!”

When her Seong-il speaks out, acknowledging her own difficulties, Claudia puts on a very moved expression.

“Don’t worry from now on. I’m going to fuck the psychic faction… No, I’ll step in and mediate the dispute. Instead, the manager, please coordinate the mage-side faction. Then, in the future, we’ll be able to run the leadership department without major problems.”

“Ohh…!! Thank you!!”

Seong-il’s answer to relieve one’s old jam. Claudia realizes once again that Scouting Seong-il was the right decision because she suffered.

“And…”

“Oh! Do you have any other ideas?”

“…That’s not the case, the seniors who sparred with me today.”

“Ah, Miss Yudi and Shuna?”

“…Excluding Shuna-senpai, Miss Yudi is a bit suspicious.”

“Yes? Are you suspicious?”

Claudia makes a face that she can’t understand Seong-il’s raising the issue. Her holy day starts leaking information about her secret admirer to her.

“Shuna-senpai seems to have a tantrum because he genuinely doesn’t like my quirks, but Yudi and the other two seniors are a bit weird.”

“…What about it?”

“I guess they… I mean, they want a fight between factions?”

Seong-il, who openly said that they were watching, and could not say what kind of force the watcher was. Because of this, he subtly tells Claudia that they have an evil purpose.

“Hmm… I can’t believe it! They’re usually very well-behaved.”

“…Is that so? Other than that, during the argument earlier, the nuance itself in the tone was a bit strange, wasn’t it?”

“Well…”

“I know this because I’ve often had political fights in my family. There must have been subtle thorns in their words. It seems like it would be good for the manager to keep an eye on them.”

“Hmm…”

Her expression doesn’t seem to believe Seongil’s words.

“Well… That’s what my senses are. I could be wrong. But, my senses are quite sharp. You can refer to them.”

“Ha… I see. I’ll try to crack down on them.”

Perhaps, Seong-il thought that he was misunderstanding them because of the argument before Dalian.

Although things went a little differently from her own thoughts, Seong-il decided to be content with planting even a small seed of doubt in Claudia’s heart.
