Became a Genius Shikigami at the Academy

Episode 42

kugugu.

A huge sense of pressure that is unbelievable even when it is right in front of you.

Seo Ji-an, who exhaled as if hesitating for a moment at the magnificence, immediately took a step forward and spoke in a low voice.

“… Get out of this place while I take the time.”

It seemed that she was ready to die this time. He intuitively realized that no matter how much they worked together, they couldn’t defeat Hecktail anyway.

👌👌👌👌👌

Seo Ji-an, who jumped off the floor with no time to dry, created a thin and sharp stream of water and shot it at Hecktail.

Peeing!

Nettle juice!

parsak.

“Is this a natural drink? It’s rare.”

Hecktail blocked it without difficulty, but Seo Ji-an’s target was different. A huge stream of water that appeared to have been secretly prepared from below the ground formed a sphere and swallowed Hecktail in an instant.

Fuwaak!

sway.

ugh.

gurgling.

Seo Ji-an fired a blow of conversion at Hecktail, who was thus trapped in a sphere.

“Ugh.”

Fuwaak!

Quang!

bang!

Aww!

The streams of water that rose from the ground fell again and hit Hecktail, and the power shook the ground like an earthquake.

For the current Seo Ji-an, it was an attack with all his might. It was certainly so great that it could inflict sufficient damage even against a B-rank you-kai.

Unfortunately, Hecktail wasn’t quite that good. Soon, along with the bizarre sound of boiling water, Seo Ji-an’s magic tricks began to be destroyed helplessly.

profit.

tooth profit.

Whoops!

iron bill.

The clear blue sphere of water changed to a dark color as if it had been polluted, and what appeared as it exploded was Hecktail with a normal appearance.

“Awesome.”

“Ha, ha… … .”

“How can you use such a wonderful natural magic at such a young age? It’s almost too close to kill me now.”

turuk.

Hecktail, who approached at a speed that could not be avoided even by looking at it, lightly touched Seo Ji-an. Soon she collapsed to the floor helplessly.

It didn’t look like he was stunned because of the slight movement, but in reality he was completely constrained from his actions.

The eyes of Seo Ji-an, who had fallen, looked at me with a worried look.

Maybe he cared about me, or maybe he was worried about his younger sister out there.

However, that didn’t matter.

“Give me a chance.”

“… … .”

“You can run away from this place now. But if you do, your friend will die more painfully. While fully facing the death that came upon me in a state of being unable to pass out.”

As a named-class villain, I know a lot about Hecktail.

Now, that statement is entirely based on one’s own interests.

If I choose to fight without abandoning Seo Ji-an, it is good as it is, and if it is the other way around, I want to leave a feeling of guilt that will not be erased for the rest of my life.

That guilt will become another bud of rebellion and revenge, and one day it may come back and turn to Hecktail.

A really bad hobby.

And he was a being who pursued such chaos as the meaning of life.

‘… At least there is a degree of foul play.’

To be honest, this is a very unreasonable situation.

If this was a game, it would have been a complete failure to control the difficulty.

However, even in such a situation, my head was rationally imagining numerous solutions.

Play your best even in the worst situations. Because that was one of the virtues of the top rankers.

‘Anyway, right now, Hecktail cannot be killed no matter what.’

Although I had caught Rain-hyung the other day, at that time, I only attacked Rain-hyung from afar, who had lost strength due to the battle with the professor and Yu Ha-on and his party, and the resurrection ceremony.

In the end, he also cleaned up what he dealt with, so it was safe to say that he did practically nothing.

To compete head-to-head with opponents of the same level as Hecktail, you must achieve a much higher level of growth.

So now, there was no choice but to find a way out of battle.

‘Fortunately, all other enemies are excluded.’

In other words, if he somehow managed to get out of Hecktail’s grasp in front of him, he could get through this crisis safely.

After I finished thinking about it all, I opened my mouth softly.

“What is your purpose?”

“There is no purpose. I just received a commission.”

“You are asking the real purpose of coming to Korea.”

At those words, Hecktail’s expression changed instantly. A sign that you are starting to take an interest in me. So it’s important from here.

“It’s strange.”

“… … .”

“Even in the face of a life crisis, his calm attitude is obviously abnormal. Is there anything you believe in?”

Hecktail clasped his hand lightly, and a soul that had escaped from the beads of the waist rested upon it.

[Keek!]

Even in the face of such threats, I calmly carried on my business without hesitation.

To be honest, there was only one place I could guess why Hecktail, who must have been wandering abroad in the setting, appeared in Korea so quickly.

“Aren’t you looking for Bi-hyung’s whereabouts by any chance?”

At my words, Hecktail raised the corners of her lips even more and stared at me.

South Korea’s exorcism headquarters still understand that Bi-hyeong hid after the Yeongwol-do incident.

That is, knowing the truth of the incident.

“… You have the information I want.”

Hecktail changed his expression seriously, then picked up a marble from his waist and dropped it on the floor.

Took.

Degur.

Fuwaak!

Then, black grips came out from there and forced Seo Ji-an to stand up.

I opened my mouth with a frown on my face at the explicit intentional action.

“Are you going to take her hostage?”

“You don’t have to waste your time. After all, you don’t want this woman to die.”

It’s definitely not wrong. It was a bad situation for me.

‘… I have to take the time somehow.’

Originally, the exorcists of the Defense Forces could not directly participate in this succession competition. Because the Daejin industry was deeply rooted in the Korean magic world.

However, if Hecktail is here, it’s a different story. In any case, he is an international wanted, of course, a matter of priority.

So, I had already secretly left a contact with Cheong Ji-yeon.

As she occupies a place around here in her own way, she will understand my intentions and take action quickly.

So, until then, I must earn some time defending Sergean against Hecktail.

“There is no negotiation. Do you have any concerns?”

As Hecktail snapped his fingers, black grips gripped Sergean’s neck, and Sergean closed his eyes tightly with a painful expression on his face.

So, I had no choice but to answer Hecktail’s question.

“B-hyung is dead. In Yeongwol-do at the time of the incident.”

“If it’s Yeongwol-do, are you talking about the resurrection ceremony? Who wrote the hand?”

In fact, this is the last answer Hecktail is looking for.

In other words, the moment you hand it over, the card that blocks Hecktail’s actions completely disappears.

Knowing that, Seo Ji-an looked at me with her eyes. you shouldn’t say

But, nevertheless, I had no choice but to say.

“It was Jeong Hae, one of the elders of the Cheong family who killed Bi-hyung.”

“… Clean up, it makes sense.”

With that, the conversation was over, and a creepy aura wafted everywhere.

Predicting what was about to happen, I increased my tension without taking my eyes off Hecktail.

And at the moment when he gives Seo Ji-an a look and evokes life. He quickly opened his mouth again.

“Isn’t it strange?”

At those words, Hecktail paused and stopped acting.

“Bihyung’s plan was carried out quietly and in secret. To the extent that even the Academy personnel who became victims of the ritual did not notice at all.”

“Hey, what do you mean?”

“It’s just a scavenger hunt, meaning that there is someone else who moved him.”

Even Hecktail showed an unexpected reaction to those words.

Undoubtedly, he is one of the most promising exorcists in the world as the leader of the current cleaning house.

It was hard to believe that there was someone who could use her as a long term word.

“That’s a lot of speculation.”

“It will not be a guess. I already know his identity.”

“Heh heh. If those words were false, I think I would be quite upset.”

Once again, he succeeded in attracting Hecktail’s interest. I continued speaking without missing the flow.

“I don’t know what you decided to receive, but this quest itself is probably not very important to you.”

“Are you going to hand over the information as a condition of letting go?”

“If that’s not possible, I won’t open my mouth even if I die.”

At those words, Hecktail shook his head and released Seo Ji-an, who had been restrained surprisingly easily.

Seo Ji-an, who was able to move her body on her own, came to me with a suspicious look on her face and took a deep breath.

“Well, there will be no problem with this. Please tell me where.”

At first glance, it might seem like he was just accepting the deal, but I knew. A person named Hecktail.

‘… Also.’

As she concentrates, the seed of the curse planted deep within Seo Ji-an’s body catches her eye.

Even if Hecktail lifts one finger, it will become a death touch and will attack the host, Seo Jian, and me next to him.

‘I don’t think you’re going to let go easily.’

How to take full control of the situation. It’s just like the Hecktail you see in the game.

‘If it were someone else, I would have already been a checkmate.’

It is rare to find an exorcist with enough knowledge to skillfully cast such a minor curse in the first place.

Even the user was Hecktail, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that there was no way out of the situation at this point.

However, very oddly.

That didn’t apply to me.

“Speak now.”

The atmosphere is so quick that if you take your eyes off even a little, you will be killed. In that chilling sensation, I raised the tension in my body.

“Who the hell is he?”

To Hecktail’s question, I gave an answer with a meaningful smile.

“I do not know.”

Anyway, this took as much time as possible through conversation. From now on, this was the beginning of a single tightrope ride.

remorse.

“Softening.”

Shrek.

slurp.

It was me who started moving first.

I cast a spell while forming a seal, and in an instant, my shadow increased its volume and quickly spread out behind Hecktail’s back.

and.

Fuwaak!

“… Burn it.”

Whoops!

Whoops!

Gongsamyi, which protruded from there, began to exhale intensely from his mouth.
