Became a Genius Shikigami at the Academy

Episode 60

A day after the presentation was over, I went out through the weekend and met Hwang Jin-cheol once again with the things I had prepared.

“Are you really okay? All the rumors about this stone are true, not fiction. It contains a very strong curse. There is a record of giving up and returning even for a jujusa who is close to the express.”

“It doesn’t matter. It’s because I have a constitution that doesn’t like to be cursed from a long time ago.”

“Huh really… … .”

Hwang Jin-cheol was worried about my well-being as if he was not at all safe, but in the first place, I knew the true nature of the Dark Stone and how to use it.

For that reason, to be honest, death stones or anything else just felt like a coveted item in the game.

“I can’t help it. Again, be sure to pay attention to handling. You can’t keep it inside the academy.”

“Yes. I know.”

Following Hwang Jin-cheol’s beckoning, an exorcist who seemed to be a subordinate came with a box with a strict seal, and immediately delivered it to me.

“I heard that if you break the seal, you will immediately become a target of a curse. Please pray that there are no problems. Because I want to see you face to face for a long time.”

So, I broke up with Hwang Jin-cheol and took a taxi to a nearby mountain with few people.

Since it literally contains a powerful curse, if it is brought into the academy without permission, it will be detected immediately and the faculty and guards will be dispatched.

In other words, I planned to return to the academy after resolving the curse of the Dark Stone in advance.

click.

After moving to a moderately deep place, I set the box containing the Dark Stone on the floor.

Several talismans and ropes were covering the entire ship, and the spiritual power contained there and the faint scent of curses emanating from the inside were felt on the skin.

‘The death stone was far from the original cursed object.’

Obviously, according to the setting, it was recorded that it was a god left behind by the legendary divine beast, Haetae.

However, for some reason it took on the opposite nature, which is the present-day Four Black Stone.

In other words, if you remove the curse attached to the Dark Stone, it can restore its original form.

‘Since it came out as a side story in the game, I know the methods and techniques for it.’

However, it was not as simple as I thought. I took a deep breath and slowly unwrapped the seal.

tuk.

fight.

parsak.

“… This is more than I thought.”

When the seal was released to some extent, the remaining amulets and ropes all crumbled and turned to dust.

It meant that a powerful curse was sleeping within it.

I took out all the simple barrier stones that Cheongjuhwa had asked me to make extra, and laid them out on the floor around the box.

And opened the cover of the sealed chamber.

profit.

Passionate!

The shape of the four black stone finally revealed took the same shape as the black half moon as seen in the game.

Paz.

Pasch.

Just by facing it, you can feel a slight curse rising up your body.

It was a convincing spectacle to say that it would certainly cause the owner to die.

‘It may be dangerous to procrastinate.’

The way to remove the curse from the Dark Stone was simple.

You can make sacrifices, raise prayers, and move the subject of the curse there through the magic that appeared in the story.

There was another item for it in the game, but I don’t have it now.

However, there was something to replace it. It was the earring of Bongwu that Arietta wanted to use as a medium for shikigami.

‘In the game, since I sacrificed a purifying effect, it’s probably enough.’

I put Bong-woo’s earring in front of the box containing the Dark Stone, and started offering prayers as I did in the game.

In commemoration of Eun-ryeong’s unjust death, the girl who was first handed this token of promise from Haitai.

tsuzu.

woo woo woo.

“Mangun Jerye (望恩祭禮).”

The criminals have all died and disappeared for a long time, but only the desperate bitterness remains, wandering the vicinity of the Dark Stones, helplessly.

Crisp!

crispy!

As the power was concentrated, the Dark Stone trembled loudly and began to radiate the energy of a curse, and as if responding to it, Bong-woo’s earrings also radiated the energy of purification.

Moon crack.

Dalkaak!

Whoops!

How long the tug-of-war lasted, finally a ray of light leaked out of the black stone and the cursed agglomeration began to fall off.

And they permeated into Bong-wu’s earrings written as a sacrifice and changed into a new form.

Whoa-!

When the ceremony was over, the Dark Stone no longer existed.

Only the proof of the promise that Haitai and the girl had once shared was left intact in the box.

’emotion.’

Tiling!

【Half Moon Stone】

▶ Proof of the promise shared between Haetae Shinsu and Eunryung Girl. It is full of pure power to defeat injustice.

Success. It was exactly the same thing we saw in the game.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and proceeded with the emotions of the other side.

Tiling!

【Earring of the Black Peak】

▶Earrings made of phoenix feathers. A refined energy of curse permeates. Increases the wearer’s curse resistance and increases the power of the wearer’s magic.

Because the material was different, something a little different from the game was made, but the nature itself didn’t seem to be much different.

If so, you can definitely create it using these two materials.

Twin shikigami, each with the opposite aura of Taegeuk. Black Yin and White Yang.

‘I’ll be busy for a while.’

So, exhausted, I finally returned to the academy.

***

“Gongjeokyu (蚣赤油), the Taebaek tree hit by lightning, and the Baekihyeol (白鯉血). Glue.”

Heukyin (黑陰) and Baekyang (白yang) have their own titles of high-level shikigami, unlike the Dudu-ri and Taebaek-se that I have made so far.

Of course, it took time to make it, and I had to gather other materials to support the main material.

“So far, is it possible?”

“… They are all tricky items. If you give me a little time, I can save you.”

Now that Seo Ji-an was able to afford it on her own, fortunately, it wasn’t too difficult to get the materials with her help.

After gathering all the materials, whenever I had free time, I stayed in the dormitory and concentrated on making shikigami.

As it is a precious material that will probably never be obtained again, there must be no mistakes.

“Sister. not there yet?”

“If you keep looking at it like this, it will be late.”

“The presentation has been over for a week. If you get caught more than this, you might want to watch from the side.”

“… It will be a few days, so be patient.”

In the process, Arietta, who came every day, murmured, I had no choice but to spend quite tiring days.

‘I wasn’t like this when I appeared as the boss.’

To be honest, I didn’t know he was such an annoying person.

It clumps so much that I want to get rid of it somewhere.

‘… Not some street cat.’

Anyway, after going through such a process, I finally reached the stage of completion of shikigami creation.

That night, without even sleeping, I spurred on and finished making the shikigami, and the next day, I met Arietta and delivered a one-piece earring.

It was the medium of the shikigami made by processing the half moon stone.

Arietta, who looked at the earrings carefully as if possessed, tilted her head for a moment and said to me.

“Something different.”

“Originally, I was going to give Bong-woo’s earring as it is, but I thought this would be better.”

Even if she was given the bonus effect of gold magic, there was no merit. On the other hand, for me, it is an advantage that is superior to anything else.

Considering the performance, it was a natural decision.

“Then, what about my earrings?”

“Initially, they were a pair of shikigami, so I have the other. Do you have any problems?”

“It doesn’t matter, I don’t… … .”

At that, I nodded and helped Arietta summon the shikigami contained in the half moon stone.

Whoops!

It was a beautiful fox with pure white, shiny fur that showed up.

[Keying!]

Whirlik.

polka.

Watching the white yang on her shoulder and rubbing her cheeks in an instant, Arietta stroked her neck with a satisfied expression.

“… You look like my junior’s fox.”

“Strictly speaking, it’s the same guy. Because black yin and white yang are shikigami that permeate the prepared body and follow its shape.”

To put it simply, it was comfortable to think that I had infused the power of Baekyang into Yeomho (念狐), who had been with me for a while.

“Is it okay if I take you?”

“yes. It’s not like he doesn’t like it either.”

White Yang was a kind of insurance I had. As long as the memories of when I was a salt lake are fully present, I will definitely be by my side to keep Arietta from going astray at my request.

As I watched the scene, I took the black stick earrings out of my arms and placed them on my own shadow.

Then, after a while, the earring was sucked into it and disappeared.

“Black sound.”

Whoa!

It was confirmed that the effect of the earring was maintained even when placed in the shadow, so there was no problem in particular.

Flutter!

[Good profit!]

A bird with its black wings spread out vigorously put its legs on my shoulders as well.

It is Baekyang’s partner made with a black swan as its main body. It was black.

“Is that, another couple?”

“yes. you’re right. The name is called Black Eum.”

“cute… … .”

Compared to when he was a black swan, he grew a little bigger, and his appearance was noticeably different.

Now, rather than a crow, it has changed to a luxurious appearance that feels like a divine beast.

‘I was influenced by the spirit of the divine beast, Haetae, so in a way, it’s natural?’

There was a condition that the power of Black Yin and White Yang could only be infused into lower-level shikigami, so out of the shikigami I had, the black swan was the best choice.

If the game and the ability are the same, it will surely become possible to become a giant someday, so we are just looking forward to it in many ways.

“Since they are twin shikigami, it will be helpful if we have a chance to fight together someday.”

“Something, it feels like a coupling.”

“… Isn’t that a little different from that?”

In any case, Arietta has been very satisfied and has expressed her gratitude to me.

I also got the shikigami I was aiming for, so it can be said that the presentation event ended with a successful result.

‘The next story, the festival and the dean’s assassination attempt.’

The main theme of Chapter 2 is the festival event and the assassination of the dean. It is a situation of high difficulty in nature, and it is difficult to predict what kind of hardship will come in the aftermath of Hell difficulty.

‘In the end, we have no choice but to face-to-face and judge,’

Considering the cases so far, a difficult crisis will surely come only with the power of the main characters, Ha-on Yoo.

So, again, I have to do my part.

‘… Now, is it just the middle of Chapter 2?’

With a small sigh, I struggled to suppress the pressure that was creeping in, and I made up my mind once again.
