Chapter 842 – Mythology Academy
Unlike the time when she couldn’t take off her girlish appearance, Elaine has become dazzlingly beautiful with added maturity, perhaps because she has become an adult.
‘… Should I pretend to know?’
『Ji… If you’re late, it’s a big problem…!!』
While Lantz musters up his courage and tries to raise his hand to show off to Elaine, Yves Rosse is so busy that she ignores herself and just runs like crazy.
‘Oh, really…!?’
Lanz’s eyes widen as she realizes why Elaine is panicking and running in the opposite direction of her.
‘No way… He…!? Isn’t admission canceled if you’re late!? We need help right away…!!’
Since the reason she enrolled in the first place was to see Elaine again, Lanz feels his heart pounding at Elaine’s sudden crisis.
‘I have to help…!!’
Lanz runs towards her entrance, desperate to help Elaine. Fortunately or unfortunately, she manages to enter the academy just before it closes. However, perhaps because she is in a hurry, Elaine gets into an accident where she bumps into a man who seems to be in a similar position to her.
『Aaaaah…!!』
‘Oh my…!!’
However, due to her situation, Elaine looks at the face of her opponent with an angry expression and rushes out to check whether she has passed or to register for her academy.
『I wonder if it will be okay…』
Lantz, worried about her, calmly follows Elaine. And there he is relieved to find Elaine cheering.
‘Whew… I’m glad. We can go together.’
While Lanz is relieved, Elaine, who has finished her situation, quickly approaches the man who bumped into her with a vicious expression and begins to argue with him.
‘Good…!! Points for taking my side this time…!!’
Lantz, who somehow caught Elaine’s eye and then tried to appeal to her. He corners the dark-haired male in front of her and carefully approaches them to help Elaine.
『People with superpowers…』
『…!!』
The moment when Lanz tries to approach the two people to take Elaine’s side. He hears taboo words that should never come out of Elaine’s mouth and her body freezes on the spot.
『Uh…』
Elain’s beautiful expression began to harden, as if she realized that she had made a mistake with her words that she should never have made. At that time, even the surrounding bystanders who heard the remark froze.
“Oh my!! Now that I think about it, I think it was my fault!!』
‘… Are you helping me?’
A remark made by the man in front of us who clearly shows that he is intentionally losing in order to help Elaine in the current situation. In fact, Elaine must have felt the same way, as her expression began to show a sense of relief and warmth.
Sogeun…
The two men and women smoothed out the situation by roughly speaking to each other. Meanwhile, the man carefully whispers something into her ear, and Elaine looks grateful for his words.
‘Whoa… Should I say this is a blessing…’
Although she didn’t score, Lanz scratched her head with a complicated expression because Elaine was lucky enough to get through the situation where she was disciplined.
‘Elaine… She seemed like she was going to take a meditation course earlier… She needs to apply for more right away.’
Lantz was cautiously near Elaine, secretly spying on the lecture she had signed up for. He barely notices that she has signed up for her ‘Basic Meditation’ class and quickly follows her lead by signing up for her additional lecture the next day.
‘There’s a meditation class starting in three days, so we’ll definitely become friends then…!!’
Lantz calms her pounding heart and moves to the classroom to listen to Professor Aaron Bjornsen’s lecture, which is required for her major. Soon, a strange scene unfolds before his eyes.
『Is that… Possible?』
The man who caused trouble with Elaine the day before. Lanz feels a thrill at the sight of a foreign classmate called Han Seong-il lifting a huge rock using only telekinesis.
『… The world is wide. I understand why the head of the family and the elders encouraged me to enter the academy.』
When the genius called Han Seong-il appears, Lantz begins to look at him with an expression of half jealousy and half admiration.
‘Well… What if you’re more capable than me? I didn’t come here to become the best anyway.’
Lanz quickly loses interest in the genius psychic who attracted the attention of those around him. He decides to focus on meditation to achieve his goal: to improve his relationship with Elaine.
‘It’s easy.’
Although not as good as Han Seong-il, he grew up being called a genius. Since Lanz had already completely mastered meditation at a young age, he easily followed the meditation classes.
『Miss Elaine…!!』
『…?!』
He finished his meditation and kept an eye on Elaine, waiting for her to wake up from her meditation and preparing to talk to her. Lanz is astonished to see Elaine experiencing internal shock during meditation for some reason.
‘This…!! Professor…!!’
If you don’t get out of that situation quickly, there is a high possibility of internal injuries, so Lantz watches Professor Wierlein’s response with a worried expression.
『Seongil!! What did you do…!!』
However, when Han Seong-il, strangely enough, places his hand on Elaine’s back and performs the taboo act of injecting her with magical power, Lanz’s expression hardens.
‘You crazy bastard…!! If you want to die, you have to die alone…!!’
The act of putting alien magical power into another person’s body. Also, doing something like this while the other person’s mind is in shock is practically the same as killing that person, so Lanz stands up with an enraged expression.
『…?!』
However, Elaine’s expression becomes comfortable after a while. Lanz is shocked when he realizes that her Seong-il really succeeded in healing Elaine.
‘How on earth…?!’
While surprised, Han Seong-il receives a thank you from Elaine, and they begin to talk. The two people seem to have become closer in an instant. At that sight, Lantz’s heart begins to break as if it were torn apart.
‘Damn it…!! Why does that bastard keep…’
Strangely, whenever he tries to approach Elaine, his anger and inferiority complex begin to slowly build up at the sight of Seong-il, a genius with psychic powers.
‘..? Are we really close?!’
The two men and women became noticeably closer some time after the meditation incident. When Lanz sees the two men and women who seem to be more than just her friends, she realizes that she missed the timing and despairs.
While Lantz was feeling heartbroken and blaming himself. While walking around the city, he happens to see Seong-il and Elaine secretly entering and leaving the family villa.
‘Probably not… Probably not…’
Lanz desperately masturbates that Elaine and Seong-il are not lovers. However, his mind is devastated, and he feels his inferiority complex toward Seongil growing stronger.
『Damn it…!!』
After Lantz returns to the family’s training room to calm down her boiling anger and get rid of her inferiority complex, she begins to hone herself through insanely intense training.
『Okay… If the results are this good… Maybe I’ll be first in this test.』
Lantz took the practical test, which is considered the most important of the midterm exams. He shows his martial arts skills against an illusion created based on the great evil Lord of the Abyss.
Lantz now fires up his fighting spirit as he glares at Seong-il, whom he secretly considers to be his rival. Although he was one step behind in his friendship with Elaine, he is confident that as he trained desperately while Seong-il was wasting away, her exam score would definitely beat
‘I’ve never tried so hard in my life. Just wait and see…!’
At the time when Lanz was trying to overcome his inferiority complex regarding Holy Days. He becomes the firstborn to experience a shocking event. During the midterm exam period, an incident occurred in which an evil apostle blocked the test site. Even inside the sealed test site, the Lord of the Abyss was actually summoned.
‘It might have worked out better…’
And when Han Seong-il, a genius who attracts everyone’s attention and has a sense of inferiority, is trapped in the exam room, Lantz ends up thinking something he shouldn’t.
‘No…!! What was I thinking!!’
For a moment, Lanz is overcome with a sense of inferiority and thinks something he shouldn’t, and his face turns red and reflects. Meanwhile, the battle between the demon lord and Seongil takes place.
『This… Does this… Make sense?』
Although he denied it, Lantz secretly hoped that Seong-il would be defeated. However, surprisingly, Lantz is shocked when Seongil shows off his fearsome skills and fights on equal footing with the Lord of the Abyss.
As Seong-il pours out powerful secret techniques that he doesn’t usually show, as if he was trying to hide his skills, Lantz realizes that the gap between him and Seong-il is ridiculous and despairs.
***
『It was so easy thanks to you.』
Tala, who showed Lanz’s thoughts that Seong-il didn’t know about, giggles and speaks to Seong-il as if it’s very amusing.
“… What kind of bullshit did you do?”
『I made a bet with the kid.』
Tala says that while her Seong-il was spending time talking to Walter, she unleashed her accumulated causal powers and entered Lanz’s dream and whispered to him.
