Became a Genius Shikigami at the Academy

Episode 48

“What’s up?”

The door opened, and Han Kang-yoon changed into clothes and caught my eye.

After looking around the room for a while, Han Kang-yoon found a chair and handed it to Yoo Ha-on, and immediately sat down on the edge of the bed and waited for an answer.

Yoo Ha-on, who looked at him with a slightly recalled face, was the first to say thank you.

“That, thank you.”

“what?”

“The elixir you gave me last time was very helpful. I feel like I haven’t been able to say goodbye properly until now… … .”

It’s been on my mind all along.

The high-grade elixir Ungaksu, which I accidentally got from Han Kang-yoon before the vacation started, was truly amazing.

Thanks to this, he was able to endure the hard training of Baek Seo-ha, the owner of Mt. Dongak, and achieve great growth during the vacation.

“Then that’s good.”

“And today, I became a will. The situation has changed so abruptly, to be honest, if we were the only ones, we would have been shocked right away.”

In fact, Yoo Ha-on didn’t even notice the old man’s booze by mixing medicinal herbs with poison, and the fact that all the villagers were fakes.

Obviously, without Han Kang-yoon, a pretty dangerous situation might have arisen.

“I haven’t done much. You just improved your skills.”

It’s been like that before, but again, it’s an attitude of lowering yourself to the utmost. In response, Ha-on Yoo gave a slightly dissatisfied expression and stared at Han Kang-yoon.

“It’s like that again. I haven’t really done much.”

Then, a slight look of bewilderment spread through his skin. Looking at it, I feel a sense of humanity in some way.

To be honest, it was also true that Han Kang-yoon felt only too advanced from Yoo Ha-on’s point of view.

“… I’m half sincere.”

“Now I have an answer that I want to be a bit honest.”

Yoo Ha-on, who had been slightly relaxed, adjusted his posture and smiled softly.

Among the senior students at Cheonghwa Academy, there are many great talents, but among them, Kang-yoon Han was the most concerned.

He knew something about his past, but he felt something different from the rest of the cadets.

If not, should it be called heterogeneous? From the time she first met Han Kang-yoon, Yoo Ha-on continued to feel the instinct close to that instinct.

“Are there any obstacles to training?”

“yes. Fortunately, still.”

“While you sound like you’re not confident, you’re growing really fast.”

“… Is that so?”

As I spoke, I remembered that I had made a lot of complaints to Han Kang-yoon before, and I felt ashamed.

Han Kang-yoon said to Yoo Ha-on, who was hastily cooling down.

“The fact that it worked as a hornbill in the first place means that there is a corresponding talent. There is no need to doubt it now.”

“… Yes. thanks.”

Obviously, Han Kang-yoon heard that before Yoo Ha-on joined the academy, he was branded as incompetent and was discriminated against.

However, in Han Kang-yoon, whom Yoo Ha-on knows, such a figure is not reminiscent of that at all.

Sober judgment and magnanimity that is not appropriate for his age. In addition to that, the combat ability that has already reached the level of maturity.

To put it simply, Han Kang-yoon was like a master who made full use of his abilities 100%.

‘… It must have been a bloody effort.’

And after entering the sophomore year, his talent finally blossomed, and only now is his hard work bearing fruit.

If Sofia and Hwang Ji-hak, who are top 2nd graders, are the objects of admiration, Han Kang-yoon is literally the person you want to imitate.

“Hey, how did you improve your skills?”

“… … .”

Han Kang-yoon, who was a little perplexed and worried, gave Yoo Ha-on an unexpected answer.

“Work hard, do your best?”

“… Yes, it would be.”

After all, the hard work of many years cannot be summed up in a single word.

Yoo Ha-on glanced at the sky outside the window and finally explained the real purpose of visiting Han Kang-yoon.

“Have you ever been worried about something?”

“… … .”

“Maybe it’s presumptuous, but is there anything I can do to help?”

Just as Han Kang-yoon revealed the identities of the villagers based on her constitution, Yoo Ha-on also had a unique constitution from before.

The moment when the feeling of having to do something suddenly strikes strongly regardless of time and place.

I’ve never suffered a loss from that impulse.

And today, after returning to the mansion, the intuition that I should visit Han Kang-yoon stabbed me in the head. So I came here.

“… … .”

Hearing this, Han Kang-yoon made a slightly startled expression and then opened her mouth with a serious expression.

“It might be pretty dangerous.”

“does not matter. There will be mountains of obstacles to overcome anyway.”

The moment he heard the answer, Han Kang-yoon’s shadow shook.

And from the depths, something spewed out a sharp yogi.

Fuwaak!

[Keek!]

It looks as if an old tortoise has turned into a yokai.

Beckoning it back, Han Kang-yoon opened her mouth with a meaningful face.

“Can you break through this guy’s defense?”

At that, Haon Yu opened her eyes straight and took out the amulet.

[Kehi hi… … .]

Returning into the shadows, the old man blew a voice filled with dissatisfaction, but I ignored it as it was and finished the preparations.

‘I hope things will go like this.’

I only experienced it in the game, but seeing it in person, I realized it at once.

Just now, it is the influence of the blue lighthouse characteristic that Yuhaon has.

【Blue Lighthouse (A)】

▶ It points to a more correct path in the crossroads of choice or a huge flow.

It is a characteristic that is counted as one of the main characters’ identities in Exorcism 1, and is a link to the story and an ability that acts like a compass.

In other words, the fact that it was triggered also coincided with the meaning that the current silencer incident could not be resolved simply by waiting.

‘Is there any aftermath of Hell difficulty?’

Obviously, the exorcists at the headquarters would have started chasing the trigger with full posture, but if that wasn’t enough, the situation had already changed to a difficulty level higher than that of the original.

“Are we both okay?”

“It’s not something I can honestly ask for help, and if the number increases, it’s rather inconvenient to move.”

I can’t say for sure as the situation has changed, but most of the mute’s abilities are probably based on the information I know. Then, at least one Yu Ha-on could take responsibility and protect it.

As there may be difficulties beyond my awareness, it was just the two of me and Yoo Ha-on to get out of the car when I was in a car.

[Good profit!]

[Quick!]

He sent several black birds, a shikigami for reconnaissance, mainly to the point where the sounder might have been hiding, but there is no way to find any traces of it even if you search blindly.

I stopped moving and looked at Yoo Ha-on with serious eyes.

“Did you find out something?”

“Point your finger in any direction.”

“yes?”

One of the reasons I brought Yu Ha-on was to borrow the power of the blue lighthouse characteristic I talked about earlier.

As long as it has already been activated once, the Blue Lighthouse attribute will inevitably help solve this case.

“… Are you really okay with that?”

“Everything has a reason, so don’t worry, you can choose.”

Yoo Ha-on thought with a questioning expression on his face and then pointed to a spot with his finger.

It was located in the west from Mt. Dongak and to the north in the village.

“let’s go.”

Without hesitation, I blew away the black swan and started moving in the direction my finger was pointing.

As we went deeper into the forest, the difficult terrain gradually blocked our way, and our movement speed naturally slowed down.

After traveling for two more hours, we finally found the traces of the horn for the first time.

“… This is the one we met before.”

“The blood was not completely solidified. I wouldn’t have gone that far.”

Jinhee Choi, one of the three exorcists dispatched from headquarters, and the first victim in the original story, Choi Jinhee.

Her body was lying on the side of the forest in a hideous form.

The whereabouts of the other two are unknown, but it is highly likely that they are also in a difficult situation.

I scoured the front through the black swan, and soon found the exorcist Lee Jeong-il of the headquarters hiding himself with a wounded body.

👌👌👌👌

crumble.

“Mr. Lee Jeong-il. Are you okay?”

“Ugh, uh, why are you here… … .”

Lee Jung-il’s condition was not good, even with empty words. He seemed to have managed to avoid a fatal wound, but his body was already incapable of fighting.

Yoo Ha-on, who looked at the wound worriedly, hurriedly opened his mouth.

“How are the rest of you?”

“Wrong. All that’s left is me… … .”

Jeongil Lee contorted his expression as if in anger and told us with trembling eyes.

“… I can’t move. Hurry and run before he comes.”

“How did your support request go?”

“Big. I sent a shikigami because the radio wave could not reach it, but it was all cut off by him.”

In other words, it meant that the people here had to somehow solve the situation.

“Can you describe the character of the gnome as you remember it?”

“Ugh, no! It’s not just the academy cadets who can’t help it. I need to call at least level 2 or higher… … .”

“It’s already too late anyway.”

As soon as I finished my words, the cool yogi began to encroach on all directions. And several popular pretenders approaching.

Lee Jeong-il, who felt it, opened his mouth hurriedly, drooling.

“Gee, I’m not the type to hit the body directly. It can magically eat and control animals or humans, and the controlled entity will improve its physical abilities and will stop moving only by destroying the magic inside it.”

Up to this point, all the information on the trigger that I knew was consistent.

However, after that, Lee Jung-il still trembled as if he couldn’t believe it, and told him one thing.

“And he can cast spells by manipulating the body of the exorcist he ate.”

“… I can.”

Yoo Ha-on opened his eyes wide and was surprised, and I, too, frowned.

If that’s true, it’s understandable why Lee Jeong-il and the others suffered.

‘… It’s also the Hell difficulty.’

crumble.

Tub.

turuk.

Before long, what appeared were animals such as wild dogs and pigs, and two humans.

Lee Jeong-il, who saw one of them, bowed his head with a depressed expression.

It was because Kim Jun-sik, who had been dispatched from headquarters, was staring at this side with a clouded face that no longer contained his will.

‘The other one… … .’

He is definitely a character in the original. He was probably one of the first exorcists of the garrison who disappeared from the village.

From the mouth of Kim Jun-sik, who was Lee Jung-il’s colleague, a low, thick voice began to spit out.
