Chapter 817 – Mythology Academy
In reality, people with superpowers usually do not train their bodies through detailed training starting in their teens. After becoming an adult, bad habits become ingrained in the body, and problems arise where the bad habits and the body become unified to the point where correction is impossible, resulting in a significant gap in skill compared to hunters who trained conventionally. However, the young female executive in front of her is confident that if she makes good use of the new technology introduced in Eden, she will be able to solve all the problems that humanity in the past believed to be universal.
“The most serious problems faced by psychics in their 30s and 40s who have not received early education are cerebral degeneration and rapid aging of organs, which virtually end the lifespan of psychics. However, I am confident that if martial arts and nanomachines were available, the story would be different! “
For executives, the brain, whose performance has significantly deteriorated due to accumulated psionic stress, can be restored to any extent with the computational assistance ability of nanomachines, and organs whose aging has been seriously accelerated due to accumulated psionic stress can be restored through the power of martial arts. I was confident that I could overcome it.
“I could clearly feel the change in my body’s condition! If we can apply our vision, even psychics or older psychics who did not receive early education will be able to do their part!”
The so-called ‘manhakdo’ hunters are rated C~B+, etc. If you can solve low-level dungeons or help secure citizens in small towns or on the outskirts of large cities that have not yet completed rescue missions, the Eden Hunter can focus on rougher and more difficult missions, so the executive strongly encourages Seong-il to be late. We recommend recruiting hunters who are starting to learn psychic abilities at an older age.
“Of course… It makes sense.”
“Right?”
The executive, who revealed his name as So Jeok, is delighted with her Seongil words.
“However, since the current budget is tight just to invest resources into young hunters who will enter the academy in the future, please bring it to me after confirming that the opinion you mentioned is truly realistic. Then, I will seriously consider your opinion.”
“… Which?”
When Seong-il tells him to bring evidence, so he can be sure, the executive swallows dryly and asks him to tell him how. Seong-il orders her to first select a few people and research whether her theory is really effective. She replies that if the process confirms that it is truly effective, Seong-il will fully support that opinion as well.
“I will definitely bring you an answer as soon as possible!!”
“Yes. Before that, don’t forget to consult with Arulil-nim before selecting the test subject.”
“Yes!!”
Perhaps happy to be recognized by one of Eden’s greatest figures, her staff responded in a half-yelling tone in her delighted tone, while the other staff members noticed her slightly wary and bossy attitude, with her youthful expression. I look. Maybe that’s why the executives making suggestions to Seong-il later began to make suggestions to Seong-il in a more heated tone than before, and for the first time in a long time, Seong-il began to vigorously discuss the direction of Eden with them.
For a while, Seong-il spends his days confirming various projects proposed by executives or checking on talented people recommended by Arulil among the rescued citizens. At that time when he was tired of the papers pouring in and was having a hard time. After a long time, Seong-il receives a call from Professor Ahindel, who was in charge of advanced education at the academy.
『Are you busy?』
“Ah, Professor. It’s been a while.”
Recently, the education for low-level psychics has been handled by hunters who have completed the 4-year training course at Korean universities or Eden Academy, so Seong-il has had little contact with the wizards Professor Ahindel and Werain, who only teach advanced classes. It was. In such a situation, when he contacts him for the first time in a long time, Seong-il asks him the reason for contacting him in a half-joyed, half-curious tone.
『The two deans said they have completed all preparations.』
“Oh…!!”
When he finally gets a call regarding the core problem that permeates the world of Mythology, Seong-il answers Professor Ahindel with an expression of anticipation.
“Are we starting right away?”
『Honestly, I don’t know. I just received word from the Dean that preparations are complete and to call you. I think I will know the exact situation only when I go to the site.』
“Aha. I understand.”
As it is an important matter, Seong-il seems to want to deal with it after meeting him in person. Despite his poor explanation, Seong-il does not object in particular and calmly moves to the Gate of Transcendence to meet with Professor Ahindel.
“It’s been a long time since I visited Mythology Academy.”
When a rather friendly scenery passes Seong-il’s eyes, he looks around the school grounds as if he is filled with new emotions. Then, he naturally came to think that he had created a university that was as good as this beautiful and magnificent academy, and when Seong-il remembered Eden Academy, he felt very proud of himself. Meanwhile, the members of the Athenaeum Order, including Ahindel and Wirain, lead Seongil to the artifact storage warehouse located deep within the academy.
“Is there some kind of secret passage here?”
“To be exact, there is a dimensional gateway. Since it is an artifact storage area, security is strict and students are blocked from entering, and it is a place where faculty members will not be particularly suspicious if they go in, so it was good to set up a secret location. So this place was good. A portal has been installed.”
“Oh… I see.”
Since it was a very reasonable reason, Seong-il listens to his story with interest. Meanwhile, they reached the basement of the artifact warehouse, where Seong-il saw a magic circle heavily embroidered with elaborate patterns.
“This is the magic circle that activates the dimensional gateway. If you use this, you will be able to travel to the Dean’s location through a distance of about a continent.”
“Oh… Can we possibly introduce it to Eden as well?”
A brilliant light emanates from the magic circle and intense magical energy begins to radiate. And little by little, powerful dimensional power emerges from the center. Seeing this, Seong-il’s eyes begin to become wet with greed.
“Really? In your world, there is already a young dimensional tree. And isn’t she helping Eden wholeheartedly? Currently, she is still a young tree, so her dimensional powers are weak, but… Her growth is progressing so quickly that it is visible. Without this dimensional magic circle, we will soon be able to open the dimensional gate with just the power of the tree.”
Professor Ah Hindel also recommends borrowing the power of With Grassil rather than installing such an expensive magic circle, as using the current dimension gate requires a huge price.
Meanwhile, the circular dimensional gateway was completely opened. Behind the circular dimension that crackled open were palm trees and a sandy beach that can only be found in the tropics.
“Let’s go.”
“Oh, can I just go?”
Seong-il is a little puzzled by the professor’s words that only he can enter the portal. The professor smiles at him and reminds him of the Pineapple House of Dimension.
“Each time we cross a portal, we spend as much silver as the weight of the person passing by. Rather than spending that money on moving around, it’s better to save it by not going. And if we need to go, we can just go to the Pineapple House in the Dimension. Why not just gather in Eden using…”
“Ah, I understand. See you next time.”
Seong-il leaves the faculty behind and goes through the portal. Then, a beautiful white sand beach and palm trees spread out before his eyes. And the two wooden mansions built in the center give Seong-il quite a strange impression. However, seeing it is only a short time. Seong-il closes his mouth when he sees the evil dimensional crack that is like a huge storm unfolding in the air.
“… That’s a dimensional rift. It’s threatening just to look at it, isn’t it?”
Seong-il, who sees a threatening entity, habitually spreads his reaction to those around him. Then Seong-il realizes that this island is really just a small island. Meanwhile, Seong-il has already moved to the front of the small house.
“Wow… Dean Steiner praised me so much… I was curious what kind of person he was, but he’s younger than I thought?”
At the sound of a voice coming from the second floor of the wooden mansion, Seongil raises his head to look for someone. And there, an elegantly aged white-haired woman like a finely dressed noble holding a wooden staff catches Seong-il’s eyes.
“Are you a Hanseong soldier?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Hehe… Nice to meet you. This old lady is called Anila Roshtein. She serves as the co-dean of Mythology Academy. As you can see, she is a wizard.”
“Ah… Nice to meet you.”
In fact, Seong-il already knew her through a vision related to the future of her Eden that he saw through Dean Steiner not long ago. The scene where she introduced a dignified old woman by her side, saying that she can learn magic even though she is a being without superpowers. Because she didn’t know who she was at the time, her holy day was only focused on Dean Steiner, but today, after hearing the introduction of the woman in front of her, her holy day finally realizes who she is.
