Chapter 667 – Mythology Academy
Just like Rachel did. Professor Aron also makes an expression as if he has realized something after hearing the conversation between Seongil and Kitty.
“…”
Professor Aron, who has been reading the memory beads Seongil gave him for quite a long time, reads all the memories and gets out of his thoughts.
“How is it?”
“How is it?
“Whoa…”
Despite the question of the other two colleagues, because of the heavy aftertaste of the truth, Professor Aron only lets out a long sigh rather than giving a specific answer.
“You’d better be prepared.”
Seeing Aron handing them a bead with a difficult expression without any explanation, Ahindel and Wehrin just look at each other, not knowing why.
“Whoa…”
Professor Aaron, who sighed once again, tried to fall into meditation to protect his own mind. His fellow professor asks him for at least some advice.
“There’s a truth inside that’s more ruthless than we thought. Things like the foreign press are trivial compared to the truth inside.”
“…It’s trivial?”
When Professor Aron described the problem of foreign media, which had threatened the survival of mankind for over a thousand years, as ‘only’, the two professors seemed shocked.
Nod
Paradoxically, the professors who have strong curiosity about the answer begin to read the contents of the beads in turn.
“!!!”
And, like Professor Aaron, the other two also get out of the memory orb, pale in shock.
“…”
Again, after quickly sitting still without answering, he falls into deep meditation to protect his mind from shock through meditation.
‘The shock must be great.’
Seong-il thought that if he found out that he was an NPC in the game world, Seong-il might have gone crazy too. Understanding the professors’ reactions, he remained silent and waited patiently for the professors to calm themselves down.
“Whoa… Is this real?”
How long has it been since you were in a long silence? As a professor in charge of meditation, Professor Wee Line was the last to read the memory of the beads, but he calmed down the fastest with meditation and then asked Seong-il.
“It’s real. I’m not going to lie to you.”
“Whoa… You’ve had a lot of trouble.”
Professor Wee Line comforts him by patting him on the shoulder, perhaps because of his heartache after seeing Seong-il’s unfortunate childhood.
“…Thank you.”
Seong-il feels his heart soften slightly at the old professor’s sincere consolation. However, Seong-il, who has learned how to manage his facial expression through numerous experiences, expresses his gratitude without expressing his feelings as much as possible.
“…I just need to change everything in the future.”
Even though her holy day is short for her, she even spits out her words with her bold determination.
“It’s great. I’ll definitely cheer for you.”
Probably because his world has also suffered from foreign invasions for a long time, Professor Wirain seems to be very proud of Seongil’s dignified appearance.
In the meantime, the rest of the professors are slowly starting to wake up from meditation, as if they were barely recovering their minds.
“Really… That’s shocking. But.”
“…?”
“Proof… Can you show me proof?”
Professor Ahindel asks Seong-il if her hair is pounding, stroking her hair with her hand while slightly frowning.
“Of course it is possible. However, before that, the professors also need to satisfy my curiosity.”
“What do you want?”
In response to Seong-il’s question, Professor Aron speaks to Seong-il in a softer tone, as if asking him to ask a question comfortably.
“What is the relationship between the three of you?
“Hmm…”
I’ve played the game up to two episodes, but I’ve never heard of any organization that Professor Aaron has joined, so Seong-il asks the faculty to solve his pure curiosity.
“Whoa… We can be said to be members of a kind of secret society called the Aneteum Order.”
“…A secret society?”
“Yes. Our organization’s main goal is to find and eliminate extremists or punish foreign apostles who infiltrate the academy.”
‘It was something like that.’
Seong-il finally realizes why they are deliberately putting on a play to keep their distance from each other, and why they are actually close.
“By the way, the Aneteum Order is a small organization of about six people. There are few of them, but each one is an elite group, so we were able to properly manage our business while hiding our identities thoroughly.”
‘Right.’
Seong-il, who has figured out what kind of relationship the professors have, nods his head and shows that he understands Aron’s words.
“Well, there are other members…But we don’t like to talk about each other as much as possible. Security is paramount in a secret society like this.”
Seongil also understood that, so he didn’t bother digging into the rest of the members.
“Okay. Since you’ve honestly satisfied my curiosity, I’ll confirm that all the memories I’ve shown you today are true. Follow me.”
Seong-il, who answered briefly, turned his back and naturally walked to the third floor of the Little Pineapple House.
“Are these people?”
“!!!”
Surprisingly, upon reaching the plaza on the third floor, a mysterious woman with green hair can be seen.
The woman, who looked unusual even at a glance, was showing off her strong presence to those who looked at her, spreading her divine power from her body to the surroundings.
“Greetings. Harvest Goddess.”
Seong-il tried to dispel the doubts of the faculty by introducing the goddess with the strongest presence among the followers first.
“…So real.”
Upon seeing the goddess herself, the faculty could clearly sense that the memory beads she had seen before were true.
“Wow! These are the people! I’ve only heard of them, so nice to meet you!”
And even the talented people from each world popping out from behind such a goddess. When the wizards, magical engineers, and alchemists familiar to the professors appear, their doubts completely dissipate.
“I’m Elisha. I’m an alchemist! In our world, other magic isn’t very developed, but alchemy is unusual…”
“I… I come from the detective world!! Unusually, we are only good at artifact production…”
According to the promise with Seongil, each follower begins to explain the level of civilization development in the world and their specialties.
Not enough of that, the followers started to bring their own items, and the professors who saw the pouring evidence waved their hands as if they understood and told them to stop.
“I understand. I understand. Now I really believe that Seongil-gun wasn’t cheating.”
In response to the enthusiastic introduction of the followers, Professor Wirain waved his hand and dissuaded them, wondering if they were cute.
『Great Master! We have finally succeeded in completing a new Gaia System on the Inner Plane of reality! Hmm?”
Even the robot Edward appears at the perfect timing to announce the production of G.E.C.R.
“Surprised. Is this a ‘robot’?”
“That’s right. Are you a guest?』
Seong-il transmits his memories to Edward, who does not know anything, and explains the situation to him.
“Oh! You are the master’s guest.”
Edward, who grasped the situation, sincerely listens to their questions and requests so that the professors who are curious about him can observe his body and ability without hesitation.
***
“Whoa… I misunderstood you. I’m so sorry.”
Professor Aaron, who has been through all these stormy situations, apologizes in a sincere tone as he looks at the holy day as his followers return to their respective worlds or their home bases in reality.
“That’s right. He even helped our world both physically and mentally, and since he even bullied him, I apologize even more sincerely.”
After grasping the truth, the professors, including Wi Ra-in, politely apologize to Seong-il over and over again. Seong-il reaches out his hand to dissuade them and accepts their apology.
“I also did it to gain my own benefit. And from the professors’ point of view, it was something they should have done to stop me, who might be a henchman of the foreign press.”
Two priests who warmly embrace each other. After reconciliation with Gongchisa is over, Professor Aron asks Seong-il, who knows the ‘future’, about the future.
“Since your plan has succeeded, I ask. Will the future of our world go smoothly?”
“Hmm…”
In response to the professor’s question, Seong-il ponders for a moment whether it is okay to tell him that the future of the world of Mythology Academy is not particularly bright in the future.
‘Well… I’ve seen things worse than this, but I’m sure there won’t be any problems just by telling me about future problems.’
Thinking so, Seong-il honestly tells Professor Aron what he knows about the future of the Mythology world.
Since Transcendence was born and the World Tree was resurrected, there may not be a big problem for at least 40 years, but when it comes to the foreign media’s outrage that it will happen after that, he answers that he does not know how the incident will unfold. Of course, Mythology Academy didn’t have a 3rd episode.
“Hmm… Anyway, thanks to you, until the big incident that will happen 40 years later appears, nothing big will happen, right?”
“That’s right. In the distant future, there will be outbursts from foreign media… But if we keep the World Tree well, and if we unite human civilization well, there will be no problem with enduring it. Maybe…”
Since it is the word of the holy day, which is no different from a prophet, the professors who heard the answer let out a sigh of relief as if they were all relieved.
“What are your future plans?”
“Well…? I should continue to train, strengthen my stronghold, and save my fellow countrymen from suffering…? However, training here seems to be a bit difficult, so I’m going to look for another world.”
After all this fuss, since the others realized their true identity. Seong-il was thinking of giving up training at Mythology Academy and exploring another world.
“I will take full responsibility. Just continue your studies here. If possible, better than now.”
“…!!”
“You are strong enough with your skills right now, but you have a rough side, perhaps because you haven’t received proper formal education. That’s why if a good teacher teaches and polishes you, you will be able to become an outstanding talent. Even more than now.”
After that, Professor Aron continues to make various suggestions to Seong-il. He says that he and his fellow professors will cover up the incident at the academy today, as well as keep the secret so that they can continue taking classes in the future.
“Go… Thank you!!”
“Um! Not only that, but it is also meaningful to provide the remaining three Ethereal Stones we have for you.”
“…Even the Ethereal Stone!?”
It is true that the information he provided is great, but he did not think it was great enough to receive a stone apart from it, so Seong-il waved his hand in embarrassment.
“Of course, it’s not free.”
Professor Aron tells Seong-Il that instead of giving Stone and full support, he wants to get some magical skills from the other world and Seong-Il’s help in the future.
“Hmm… You mean you want to learn martial arts, magical engineering skills, and alchemy skills?”
“Yes. Magic engineering, Ahindel. Alchemy, pass it on to Wirrain. By the way, it’s not free. I’ll allow those two to fully teach magic to your followers here from now on.”
“!!!”
Seong-il looks really surprised when he hears Aaron say that two powerful magicians from Mythology Academy will teach his followers.
“And I, Seongil-gun, will be by your side to help you fully awaken your temporal traits. Instead, I want you to acquire something called ‘simbeop’ that is excellent for me in the future. If possible, I want something like the martial arts world’s minor faction simmethop.”
“Ah…!”
Certainly, from the standpoint of a person with superpowers, there is nothing as helpful as martial arts training, so Seong-il exclaims in sympathy after hearing Professor Aron’s words.
“That much… I’ll try to find one. But what’s the ‘help’ in the future?
“Arunlabe.”
“!!”
When the name of his mighty artifact appears, Seong-il flinches and looks at Aaron.
“…In the future! If a foreign god or his apostle descends, help us use Arunrabe’s divine killing power to end them. Until now, we had no choice but to defeat the foreign gods, but now No. I just need your help.”
‘Surely…’
Prof. Aaron’s remarks made sense. However, Seong-il can’t easily say the words of acceptance because the other person is the other person.
“If you agree to the condition, I will dedicate it to you who are looking for the legendary Ethereal Stones that are said to be scattered throughout this world. The three stones I mentioned earlier are a down payment.”
“!!!”
