Chapter 827 – Mythology Academy
“… What about them?”
People who are suddenly summoned like crazy in the middle of a vortex of spiritual bodies. Most of them were wearing costumes from the world of Mythology, and they all looked at the group with a pitiful look of despair and pain.
“Please…!! Mercy…!!”
“Gerhard!! You sure aren’t trying to attack me, are you?”
“Master!!”
Surprisingly, among the hundreds of monsters who suddenly appear, some seem to know the two deans and repeatedly ask for mercy from them with pitiful expressions.
“Where do you play with illusions…”
“We are not welcome!!”
When Seong-il raises Arunlabe, an urgent rebuttal comes out of the mouth of a young woman. Even who she is and what her past is. It explains in detail what the two deans did and what they did at Mythology Academy.
“I am Gerhard’s old friend…!!”
An elderly psychic tries to show that he is a real person by revealing secrets that only he and Dean Gerhardt know.
“…”
When Seong-il sees the serious expressions on the faces of the two deans behind him, he realizes that the people in front of him are actually real people in the world of Mythology.
『Let’s make a deal.』
When the two deans appear to hesitate, Tala cunningly tries to take the lead by cunningly passing Seong-il through the deliberation process as if he had been waiting and trying to make a deal with the two deans.
『Let’s negotiate with me. Please keep this rift for just one year without damaging my essence. If you do that, I will obediently correct my essence and return to my dimension.』
Tala cunningly confuses the allies by suggesting trade terms that Seong-il and his party can find attractive. The reason he is asking for a deal is not because he is particularly greedy for the human world and is trying to waste time, but because he feels it would be a waste to have the essence damaged.
“How can we believe that?”
『My brothers have been reverse summoned to a dimension, so what power do I have to conquer this dimension alone? But… I won’t lie. One day, when your world becomes chaotic and the dimension becomes unstable, we will face enemies again. That must be true.』
When Tala even makes an ‘honest’ statement that he may invade this place again, if not now, in the distant future, the party appears a little shaken, perhaps sensing the sincerity of his suggestion.
“Please…!! Rostain!! I, too, made a great sacrifice for the world!! Please… Let me leave this eternal prison of the soul…!!”
“Unknown supernatural power. Please have mercy on me…!! If I have any sins, my only sin is that I desperately fought against foreign powers for the sake of this world!!”
When countless characters from the world of Mythology look at the two deans and try to sympathize with them and ask for mercy, the two deans appear shaken and unable to do either this or that.
“Stop talking bullshit, you bastard. Where are you getting your snout from?”
However, Seong-il, who has no connection to the world of Mythology, appears unmoved by Tala’s tricks. His priority was simply to prevent the time of creation from being wasted meaninglessly, so he raised Arunlabe, ignoring the words of the people in front of him.
『Seongil!! For a moment!! If we make a deal with oaths and pledges, we might be able to resolve this situation…!!』
“That’s right!! Raising a sword blindly is…』
The two deans seem to have become a little dull of reason due to the recognition, and they appear to be using Arunlabe to stop Seong-il from being considerate of the people around him.
『You two, come to your senses!! Are you going to miss a golden opportunity to solve a problem that has plagued this world for over a thousand years just because you feel sympathy for the people in front of you?』
Of course, Seong-il, who did not have the slightest sympathy for the people in front of him because it was not his world, responded very calmly and strongly to the two deans, telling them to face reality.
『What if Tala tricks me? This is a guy whose hobby has been toying with mortals for eons. Are you talking about oaths and oaths to a guy like that? Seriously?』
Seong-il speaks bitterly towards the two deans and urges them that they must sometimes make sacrifices.
『Just be a sinner. He said he was a bad guy. Take some swear words. Live with guilt for the rest of your life. If you can protect your beloved hometown with just that, isn’t that a good business?』
『…』
Seong-il’s harsh and cold-hearted remarks. However, since there was nothing wrong with what he said, the two deans could not bear to deny Seong-il’s words.
‘Fuck… I lost 10 minutes.’
A situation where 10 minutes of creative time were lost due to useless sympathy. Because of this, Seong-il, who was in a hurry, summoned a bunch of clones who had managed to recover to some extent and ordered the dolls to charge.
“That’s it! Wipe it all out!! Ignore what they shout!!”
“Yes!!”
When Seong-il orders an attack on the slaves of Dajjagojja Tala, his limbs and clones raise their weapons towards the enemy without any emotion.
『Hold hands with me, wise men. The goal is to subdue that foolish guy. Then I will give their souls freedom. Also, in one year, I will safely return a piece of my essence to my main body from this dimension. What is it like?』
“… Shut up!! Gerhard!! I’ll attack you!!”
However, Dean Anila sees Seong-il’s resolute appearance and decides to give him strength. Although she was in pain, she gritted her teeth and raised her staff toward her former colleagues, her close friends, and her students.
“Hmm…!!”
Dean Gerhardt, who had a close relationship with him, must have also come to his senses after hearing Dean Anila Rothstein’s shout. He begins to unleash powerful supernatural powers towards old acquaintances whom he really misses.
『They seem like foolish and selfish people who only care about themselves.』
When the young demigod in front of her, unfazed by her plan, tried to attack her, Tala must have been annoyed by the sight, so she abandoned the easy-going attitude she showed in the beginning and started swearing.
『Slaves. Use all the power you have to stop them. Otherwise, I will bury you in endless hell for thousands of years and subject you to endless pain through torture.』
Tala’s shimmering threat echoes through the empty space. And the mortals who heard the threat began pouring out their powers toward Seong-il and his group with expressions of despair.
“I’m sorry!! But we don’t want to do this either!! But… Master’s ‘corporal punishment’ is so painful. Please forgive us.”
The people of the world of Mythology, who became Tala’s slaves, continue to utter apologetic remarks and pour out powerful supernatural powers and magic towards Seong-il and his group. If they had tried to fight while spewing out venomous lines, the two deans would have put their old feelings behind them and fought desperately, gritting their teeth, but the pitiful sight of the captured people made the two deans attack little by little, even though their lives were on the line. He appears hesitant.
‘Plague…’
Seong-il feels irritation welling up inside him when he sees the two deans like that. However, he also thought that he would have been shaken if the captives, Erica, Eunwol, and Charlotte, appeared in front of him and cried and begged for mercy, so he desperately swallowed his frustration and went into battle.
“Aaaaah!!”
Seong-il cuts down the group of female psychics in front of him with Arunlabe and annihilates them. At first, Seongil was a little shaken by that pitiful sight, but at some point he thought that it would be better for them to give them rest by extinguishing the captured souls with Arunlabe’s power ‘Destruction’. After completing his self-justification, Seong-il was able to mercilessly cut down his slaves without hesitation.
“Under…!! What a toxic guy. I can’t help it. Apostle. Go and kill him.』
When Seong-il destroys his beloved ‘collection’ with the power of destruction, Tala must be so annoyed that he immediately deploys a super force that sends his strongest card into the battlefield.
『I will uphold your will!!』
As soon as Tala’s cry falls, a strange being leaps into the dimension without a sound from her thin air. The devil, whose entire body was made of black and red leather, had sticky blood and sulfur dripping from his body, giving the viewer a creepy feeling.
Six giant arms and two pairs of bat wings. It was a typical demon’s body, but what shocked the group the most was not its hideous appearance, but the foreign ‘something’ where the demon’s face should be.
“… Walter?”
A dignified middle-aged face with impressive silver hair. Dean Gerhardt is shocked and mutters as if possessed when his former favorite student only has a human face on his face and the rest of his body has been completely transformed into the appearance of a terrible devil.
『My damn old teacher! I received true salvation after listening to Tala’s teachings. Today!! I will capture you and sacrifice you to my master to repay you…!!』
