Became a Genius Shikigami at the Academy

Episode 70

After absorbing Hecktail’s soul, I summoned Gongsam again and burned the corpse with purifying fire.

Some were trying to erase the traces, and it was to be polite to the opponents who risked their lives in their own way.

‘It was not easy in many ways.’

However, dealing with Hecktail here is a huge achievement.

If he somehow managed to save his life and survived, it would have been a constant source of variable like this one.

‘… In fact, there would have been no way to win if he hadn’t summoned Phase 2 of the illusion delay.’

At least this is the Hecktail that can be said to have the best compatibility.

Also, for the time being, it would be better to avoid meeting other members of the night school. Somehow he sleeps, and if he gets into a fight, he might really die.

When all the traces of the battle were put together, I could feel the traces of the seeds of loneliness that had enveloped the entire academy disappear.

It must have been that Yoo Ha-on and his party succeeded in helping the exorcists remove the rooted seeds.

“It was good to let you go.”

In this way, it can be seen that the festival event and the assassination of the dean are all finished.

It was how he succeeded in overcoming the biggest difficulty in Chapter 2 of the story.

As I was thinking about it, my body trembled and my eyes closed on their own.

This is a side effect of Phase 2 of the illusion delay that I experienced last time.

“Sound.”

slurp.

Fuwaak!

[What.]

“Move me and Gongsam to a safe place.”

[…] i get it. Don’t do that.]

For some reason, I thought I was obediently obeying orders, but when I saw my phase 2 status, it seemed that I was a little intimidated by the power beyond my imagination.

I smirked at the sight, and leaned on the back of the gigantic tuning fork.

So, once again, consciousness fell into the depths of my head.

***

After waking up, there was nothing special about it.

The people hiding in the shelter came out one by one, and the academy and the exorcists of the garrison did their best to rectify the situation.

“It’s Kangyun~ You’re safe. Aren’t you hurt? Oh, it must have hurt a little to see you here.”

And now, I lay down with other patients in a rushed medical vehicle.

In fact, there were no serious injuries because he died and came back to life, but his appearance was so messed up and he wasn’t in good shape, he was just obeying the instructions.

“Were there any special problems with the shelter?”

“Uh… … Problem? A pretty strong enemy appeared, and in the fight, it was shattered here and there. The front door has also been opened.”

The enemy who gave Sophia a hard time, must have been the shadow of some talented person.

But at Sophia’s next words, I almost fell out of my seat in shock.

“It was a man with a bandage covering half his face and wearing a ragged robe, perhaps?”

“… … .”

It is the shadow of Hecktail. I barely managed to hide my agitation and hurriedly asked Sophia a question.

“Are the children injured?”

“Ah, Jihak did get hurt a little while protecting people, but it’s not serious. It’s because I’m the best in my school year to be strong.”

At that, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Heck, if a monster as big as Hecktail was the target, even if it was a seed of loneliness, it would not have been able to materialize half of its abilities properly.

It was to the extent that it felt like a replica of a first-class exorcist was not much different from that of a second-class exorcist.

Perhaps it wasn’t at the level of barely using even a high-level technique?

Looking at me like that, Sophia started to tell me what happened in other places with an innocent smile.

“I also met current exorcists, but there was an incredibly strong shadow there too. Are you curious about Kang Yoon?”

“What do you want to know? It must have been a clone of a first-class exorcist near Bona Mana.”

At my words, Sophia raised a finger and waved to make a gesture saying that she was wrong.

“Well, it was like he was wearing an academy cadet uniform or something~”

“Cadet uniform?”

“Yes. It seems that it was also a male student. But if you look at his appearance, he’s not a Jihak, and he’s not even a senior in the graduating class, but everyone is curious about it.”

“… Did the soul of a buried corpse pop out?”

It was a mystery that students would really like, but it was definitely strange.

If it weren’t for the seniors in the senior class, and not Hwang Ji-hak, there was always a question as to who the original copy would have been a duplicate enough to make the incumbent exorcist in trouble.

However, as is always the case with eyewitness accounts, most of them are meaningless if you take them seriously.

I smiled and overheard Sophia’s story.

Even jokingly, it can’t be said that it was a success, but that’s how the academy’s festivities ended.

And at that time, somewhere a little far from the academy.

“… … .”

A being with a shaky figure, as if it were wearing a shadow, quickly moved somewhere and away from the crowd.

A man with dark gray hair with a moderately strong physique and an indifferent impression.

He was wearing none other than the Cheonghwa Academy cadet uniform.

***

After Yoo Hye-yeon’s attack on the academy using the seeds of loneliness, the school was closed for several days to repair broken objects or reorganize personnel.

Naturally, it became a big topic in the world, but surprisingly, the response was not as bad as the situation in Yeongwol last year.

Not only was the Exorcism Headquarters’ mistake in missing the prisoners who had to be transferred to a special prison in the first place, but it was an atmosphere that bought the Academy’s ability to solve the case without much damage even in a situation of that size.

The cadets also had a sense of practicality and confidence in their own way through the situation, so it was safe to say that the ending was not bad as a result.

However, in reality, Hyejin Yoo, who became the new dean of the academy this time, seemed to have a different opinion.

“I plan to step down as dean sooner or later.”

These were the words of Hyejin Yoo, who called me through Baek Ji-eun a day before class resumed.

“Why?”

“If you were Han Kang-yun’s cadet, you might have noticed it, but I was actually guessing about her sister’s plan to some extent. Of course, I never dreamed of escaping.”

When I listened to her without answering, Hyejin Yoo opened her mouth again and continued the conversation.

“Even if damage occurred, I thought it would be an end that both of us could understand.”

“It’s a dangerous idea.”

“yes. It was definitely the wrong idea.”

Yoo Hye-jin, who got up from her seat and walked to the sunny window, slowly turned her head and smiled bitterly.

“I changed my mind after hearing the report from cadet Kang Yoon, but it cannot be denied that he had such an intention in the end. As a dean, I am disqualified.”

“… … .”

He seemed to fully understand what Hyejin Yoo was trying to say.

It’s definitely not wrong. There were no problems in the end, but she clearly had ideas that could put her students at risk.

I gave an answer to such Yoo Hye-jin with a lot of thought.

“If you made that decision yourself, I don’t think I have anything else to say.”

However.

“To be honest, I don’t think there is a person in the academy who is more qualified for the dean than the vice dean.”

“That’s it, won’t it come up if I look for it anywhere?”

“You don’t know even if you say that, don’t you? It’s about being able.”

Even if preparations have been made in advance, it is not easy for a person like Yoo Hye-yeon to destroy a project that was planned so easily.

It happened only one day after the decision was made, so that alone proved Yoo Hye-jin’s ability.

‘Besides, Hye-Jin Yoo still has many things to do in the story.’

So, it would be difficult if I suddenly retired from here. This was my personal case.

“… To be honest, I didn’t think you’d get that answer.”

“If I had actually done it, I wouldn’t have thought of defending myself, but anyway, in the end, he changed his mind.”

“Still, a better fit than me… … .”

It must have been that he was not such a person, but he was suffering from death worse than expected. Frustrated with him, I decided to openly express my honest opinion.

“Then, can I leave it to Professor Baek Ji-eun?”

“… … .”

“If not, to Professor Choi Do-won?”

Hye-Jin Yoo would know. That there is virtually no person more suitable for the position of dean than her.

“… When you say that, there is nothing more to say. Isn’t the evaluation of the professors too harsh?”

“It was simply a matter of aptitude.”

In the end, Yoo Hye-jin smiled and sat down again and opened her mouth.

“Do you know? I don’t usually change my mind, but recently, it’s already the second time.”

“Are you okay? Flexible thinking is to some extent indispensable.”

“Then, shall we try our best to fulfill our responsibilities until a suitable person comes along?”

Thus, Hyejin Yoo officially became the dean of the academy.

The second chapter of the story, the assassination of the dean, was the moment that finally signaled the end.

***

I was expecting to a certain extent because the illusion delay phase 2 was activated, but again, big and small changes occurred to me.

’emotion.’

Tiling!

【Han Kang-yun】

▶Level 36

▶ Ability

【Health: C+】

【Spirit power: B】

【Method: B-】

【Spirit: A-】

▶Characteristics (5/10)

【Welcome delay (S)】

[Spirit Combustion (A)]

【Challenger (B+)】

【Intracerebral Surgery Library (B)】

【Living patient (B-)】

The spiritual power stat, which was the first B-minus grade, was raised to a full B-grade, and likewise, the mental power also increased from the B-plus grade to the A-minus grade.

Also, through this battle, the level went up by one more and became 36.

Now, even the simple ability level is not much different from those of the top 2nd year cadets.

‘And, again, the hallucination delay characteristic… … .’

Due to the consumption of power in phase 2, the size of the inside of the shadow has decreased, and the boundary between the body and the shadow has become more blurred.

It was a joke, but somehow I feel like I’m gradually becoming something that isn’t a person.

‘Even the peak was not affected by the hallucination delay to this extent.’

I don’t know for sure, but my case seemed to be special.

‘There were no bad omen, so it doesn’t matter.’

After all school closures were over, we finally went back to the daily life of the academy.

and,

“Do you know what the days are next week?”

“There was also a school closure order, but it was delayed that much… … .”

“Sorry, there is no such thing. Nothing will change if you postpone it anyway.”

At the meaningful smile of Ji-eun Baek, the professor in charge, each student sighed or stared blankly at the front.

“Everyone, forget the sweet break and prepare faithfully for the exam.”

The comprehensive evaluation exam for the second semester of the sophomore year was already approaching.
