Episode 71

“Oh, I hate it. Another test Why are you so anxious about not being able to pass the exam?”

After a whole day of class, someone came up to me and talked to me, grumbling.

It was Shin So-ra, a girl who could be said to be close now.

“No matter how much I think about it, the tests are too frequent. Don’t you think so?”

“… Probably because it is needed in many ways. Your grades are good enough to complain like that in the first place, right?”

If the rest of the cadets heard it, it would be a shocking sound. In fact, Shin So-ra was one of the elites who always maintained the highest grades.

Shin Sora pondered deeply about what came to mind when she heard my words, and spat out an answer.

“Come to think of it, maybe this time it will change.”

“Change? what?”

“Our grade rankings. There has always been no change in the top 5 so far.”

#1 Sophia.

#2 Hwang Ji-hak.

3rd place is Hansol.

4th place is Sora Shin.

And fifth place Guilford.

The atmosphere is always up and down, but strangely, these five cadets have not changed at all in their rankings since their freshman year.

Perhaps it is remembered that it did not change even in the original story until graduation.

And now, Shin Sora is saying that the record may be broken.

“why?”

“You are here.”

“because of me?”

That’s another unexpected answer. I didn’t expect Shin Sora to be so conscious of me.

“It’s a skill, I know because I saw it last time, and you say you’re good at studying? Then I think it would be worth aiming for the top ranks.”

Surely, if I do my best, it may not be unreasonable to get high grades.

But I really had no intention of doing that.

Anyway, the grades were enough to get me enough to take the exorcist exam early. Because I didn’t want to put too much effort into the test for nothing.

‘If you’ve come this far, the academy’s grades aren’t really a priority.’

Until now, I was only concerned about meeting the standard for A-class promotion qualifications, but in fact, there is no problem in maintaining the middle rank in moderation.

So I smiled and denied Sora’s words.

“Probably not. I don’t even have a lot of greed.”

“Children who say things like that always study hard and hit the back of the head. Just like Hansol.”

“why? What am I?”

While we were talking, a cadet suddenly broke through us.

The man with curly brown hair with a favorable impression was the one Shin So-ra just mentioned, Jeong Han-sol.

“How can you come to know me like a ghost only when you talk about yourself?”

“I can hear ghosts whenever I’m nearby. What did you curse at Kang Yoon-i?”

“I didn’t. It just came out because we were talking about s*x.”

As you can see at a glance, Sora Shin and Hansol Han are childhood friends who have been close since childhood.

As such, I remember that he was often entangled in events later in the story.

As expected, it’s 3rd in the grade, and this one also has gorgeous specs.

A total of six traits. It belongs to a lot of axes compared to age.

After chatting with Sora Shin for a while, Jeonghansol suddenly looked at me and asked a question.

“What do you usually do after class? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it.”

“It’s usually training.”

“Eh? Was it? Then we may have met often.”

Perhaps the reason is that I did not intentionally visit the training ground dedicated to the Class A.

“Until now, I have mainly used the old training ground.”

“There is another species like Hwang Ji-hak. What do you like going there? Are you also cultivating the laws of nature in a space where tradition and history remain?”

“no. It was just because there were few people, so it was convenient.”

Come to think of it, Hwang Ji-hak seems to have given such a grand reason.

After hearing my answer, Hansol smirked and patted his back involuntarily.

“People are uncomfortable. yes it can be What should I do with you from now on?”

“… Not for that reason.”

“It’s free, so call me whenever you’re bored. Or would you like to play a game together?”

“When I have time later.”

Although similarly described in the original, he is also quite playful. Perhaps there was a setting that he had pro-level skills in various games regardless of genre,

Thinking that one day, if I had a chance, I would suppress that pride, I broke up with the two of them and headed to the dormitory.

***

‘This is the second member of the night school.’

Since all traces of Hecktail had been erased after the battle, the Exorcism Headquarters determined that he had escaped and hid himself as in the last time.

But in reality, both are out of the story.

Considering that each member of the night school had the same influence as the story boss, it was a truly remarkable achievement.

‘There will be no relationship with the rest of the members for a while.’

The point where the members of the night school begin to appear in earnest is in the middle and second half of the story. Now that the link has been completely cut off, I wondered if the other personnel would meet again as enemies after quite some time.

‘… This is when there are no special variables.’

Took.

Degur.

Contemplating, I stroked the black marble on the table with my fingers.

This is the goldsmith stone that Hecktail was using. To be precise, it was a processed ornament.

And inside it was the soul of Hecktail, who died in battle with me.

‘I’m sure someday there will be a place to write.’

I didn’t intend to take this approach from the beginning, but somehow, I’m really stepping on the path of a full-fledged goldsmith.

If it was a game, I would have convinced myself that it was just a game, but once it became a reality, I couldn’t just let it go.

‘… Wouldn’t it be possible to get caught by the exorcists at the headquarters someday?’

Basically, as the treatment of goldsmiths in this world is not good, there is no way that there will be no such thing.

It was clear that there were a number of things that needed to be taken care of.

square.

square.

Whoops. Shh.

As I was organizing my future plans by recording these and other thoughts on paper, I turned my head to the sudden vibration of my smartphone.

It was a contact from the ex-exorcist Myung-yul, who had a relationship at the last presentation.

“What are you doing?”

[Long time no see. It was nothing but fate’s approval as promised. This Sunday, can you come to my place?]

“Yes. Of course I will come to you.”

Prophet Fortune. Meeting her was waiting for me.

***

Although Yun-yeon appears not very often, she is one of the main characters in the original story.

‘To be considered a simple minor role, its influence is too great.’

In the original story, Haon Yoo and his party met the prophet Unyeon for the first time in their sophomore year, just before the 2nd Baekgwi Nightfall.

And there, each of them hears about their fate from her.

‘It’s a big turning point in the story, when Ha-on Yoo realizes her role as the main character.’

Fortune’s prophecies are not absolutely accurate. There are exceptions, but rather, most of them had to be viewed as the result of a fluid change depending on the subsequent variables.

However, that uncertainty is rather an excellent advantage.

‘If there is a future that is unfavorable to you, it is because you can hear it and change it as much as you want.’

It was the same reason why I came to Unyeon this time.

Forecasting my future, estimating the future, and preparing for any crisis. In a word, it could be said that it was the preemption of information.

After going out of the academy on the weekend, I went straight to Myung-yul without hesitation.

“As I said before, she is a pretty picky person. Be careful not to provoke anything.”

“Yes. I will keep that in mind.”

“Your disciple will guide you on the way. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I pray that you get what you want.”

The person Myung-yul put forward as a guide was none other than Arietta, a senior in the senior class and his disciple.

So I headed to the middle of Myeongrimsan Mountain where Unyeon was hiding.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you in person.”

“Have you met before?”

“We had been together for a long time when we were young. He was a very nice person.”

This was the first thing I heard too.

And, it is truly cruel.

‘It was after Arietta’s death that Yoo Ha-on and his party met Un-yeon.’

If so, how did Unyeon feel when she met Yoo Ha-on and the others in the original work?

I don’t know, but he must have harbored very complex emotions.

I followed Arietta and took a deep breath as I climbed the steep mountain road.

“Sister. You look tired.”

“It’s a first for a mountain road like this.”

“Then can I pick you up?”

“… I will decline that.”

It wasn’t strange. My stamina rank was C+, so it was on the very low axis.

However, I didn’t want to experience the experience of being carried on the back of a girl who was smaller than me.

In the end, I succeeded in climbing up the mountain and arriving at Unyeon’s dwelling, using all my evil.

Hold your breath while sweating profusely. A young man came up to us and talked to us in the vicinity.

“Are you Myeong-yul’s guest? Unyeon-sama is waiting inside.”

So, under the guidance of the young man, we were finally able to face Unyeon.

Knock.

smart.

“I brought the guests you mentioned. May I bring it in?”

“… Let the two of you in, and let me clean the yard for a while.”

“Yes. I will.”

The young man left, and we entered the door and stood in front of Yun-yeon.

Wrinkled skin with whitish hair. Nevertheless, the profound energy felt in that body. The appearance of Unyeon seen with her eyes was definitely the same as the description of the original.

“okay. It’s been a while again.”

“nice to meet you. old lady. I’m glad you look healthy.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t go ahead of that inspiration.”

After talking with Arietta for a while, Unyeon turned her gaze and started to stare at me.

Those eyes, somehow, had a strange feeling, as if penetrating the depths of my heart.

“So, what did you come to me to know?”

“I want Unyeon to take a look into my future.”

“okay. I kind of expected that.”

Yunyun let out a small sigh and continued speaking.

“It is not always wise to want to know the future. Maybe living a quietly given life can be a happier way. Nevertheless, would you like to see the results?”

“Yes. The promise is made.”

“… Then come here. Let’s grab a strand somewhere.”

Unyeon placed her hand on my head as it was, raising her spiritual power, closing her eyes and starting to concentrate.

So, after a while, Unyeon suddenly opened her eyes and fell from me as if she had been electrocuted.

Her gaze stayed on me, shaking violently as if she had witnessed an unbelievable sight.
