The Academy’s Time Limit in a Novel Written by a Friend

51 – Episode 51 In a novel written by a friend, the academy turned into a pleasant blackout.

You know how to make others suffer throughout your life. Trash that has never hurt itself is scattered on the floor. Spilled blood

“Uweeh…! Oops…!? What the hell… Ugh, what is this…!”

“Does it hurt? So why are you copying other people’s talent without even knowing it?”

“Crazy man! How the hell are you enduring this?! What happened to your mental strength!?”

Um, aren’t you enduring it with your mental strength?

But there was no loyalty or reason to answer.

“Oops.”

Just before he threw it, he retrieved the weight he had reduced in advance and transformed it into a familiar knife.

“Wait…Wait, yes let’s hold hands with me.”

“Ho, don’t you hate humans? Didn’t you think it was a lower creature?”

“Uh…How can you think of a strong person like you as a lower creature, yes. Cadre. I don’t know about you, but I’ll try to be recruited as an executive in our organization. There will be a much brighter future ahead of just being a hero.”

“Oh, that sounds so appetizing.”

A zodiac executive who appears strong only in the beginning, and in the latter half of the academy everyone dies except you?

I took a step with an attitude of not being interested at all.

“Wait a minute…! Woo-wook… Yes, if you don’t like the organization, the elf! Let me introduce you to the elf woman. If you humans are elven slaves, you’re a creature that’s freaking out.”

“hahahaha, I really like that, but that’s okay. Is there any chance of being stabbed by Illak later?”

Illak is kind and hates slavery.

“Wait a minute, wait a minute! Damn! Say what you want! There must be something!”

“No. Exactly, there is nothing you can listen to.”

Since you have used the Seoncheon Jingi to its limit, you will not be able to use magic or artifacts.

Most artifacts require energy to use.

“Why are you doing this to me in the first place! What did I do wrong to you!?”

“Well, if you look closely, there are many. Even at the entrance ceremony, I almost fainted. But that’s not why I’m doing this.”

“Then what the hell…!”

He shouted as if he was very unfair, but it was absurd.

Actually, it’s killing for some vague reason, but at least you shouldn’t do it yourself.

“It’s because you’re too messy.”

“…What?”

“It’s okay to think that it’s because villains like you aren’t popular these days. Third-rate villains are a bit bigger among the reasons readers get off.”

“…Fuck, what the hell is that?”

“Wow, now he even curses at me. If it’s too unfair, yes, think so. If you are there, the academy won’t be noisy. Even after graduating, they act hard, but isn’t it a bit too much for them to not be able to go on school trips, not get the exams straight, and not be able to date even though they are famous for their academy?”

“…?”

That guy had a face that I couldn’t understand.

Or maybe it just doesn’t make sense that he’s dying for just that reason.

“As I said to your first love, I will save the heroes. It will not just save lives, but it will allow those people to enjoy the things they should have been able to enjoy.”

“Okay! Then don’t set foot in Raylan Academy! I will take care of this body and live quietly! No, if that’s not enough, I’ll hand over all the other zodiac information!”

“No need. You already know everything. And a third-rate scoundrel like you will try to take revenge if you keep him alive, right?”

“No! I don’t know what kind of third-rate I am, but I’ll keep my promise with the elven honor!”

-I promise with the honor of the elves. Don’t lay a finger on your colleague.

“Pheh…! You really are a fucking consistent kid.”

That consistency gave me confidence.

In the original story, after saying that, you beat up Kang Ha-ni and threw it at Lilac.

Why do you want to protect Lilac? He offered her a deal and made a hole in Lilac’s stomach.

He even laughed at them, mentioning Professor Cathy, who had already died.

“Please…! Please save me…!”

Yes, that’s how it should be.

This is the death that suits you.

A villain who only gets in the way is appropriate to walk off the stage alone, before anyone hates you, without having any impact on the story.

I raised my knife and shot it down as I had practiced hard.

Sensations similar to those practiced in VR were transmitted through the hands.

If there is one difference, is it that it doesn’t scatter as particles of light?

The vitality gradually disappeared from the eyes of the guy who couldn’t even scream.

Originally, it was a pitiful death for a villain who turned the academy upside down and threw the world into chaos.

-Accomplishment Acquisition You hunted future villains on behalf of the main character. The title ‘Dark Hero.’ Is created.

…Who is the Dark Hero? Fuck.

It wasn’t as pleasant or refreshing as I thought.

Should I say it’s a strangely uncomfortable feeling to have finally cut off the first cancerous mass of this novel?

I want to hit the drip like usual, but it wasn’t easy either.

-The will of the saint strengthens your mental power.

“Thank you. Okay.”

Think positively. This bought me some time for a while.

There are no traitors left in the academy, and there will be no incidents where the president suddenly retires.

-Are you okay?

I heard the voice of Son Oh-gong inside Yeoui-bong.

“What’s not okay? Even if it’s not okay, you have to get used to it.”

-Is that so? I hope it’s okay. But do you know

“Yes?”

– Even if you feel like you’re okay, you don’t know if you’re really okay.

“…What are you saying? Don’t sound ominous like that.”

I couldn’t be more still than that. For future plans, I had to take care of things from him.

Most of the artifacts he possesses cannot be taken away by specifying a user, but some artifacts can be used only by re-signing a contract.

Typically, the black spirit that he used as his main armament was an item that could be contracted by changing the owner, and you can also take a relic called ‘Incorruptible Doll.’

And more than anything else, the thing I wanted to take away from him was fortunately well kept in his arms.

A mask in the shape of a dragon from the zodiac. This mask, which has the effect of deterring perception, is the one I wanted the most from him.

Well, since I said that you can change the design to the shape you want, I’ll be honest. I don’t really like wearing masks, but the ones with the recognition-damping effect are hard to find except for this one.

Why do you need this?

There is something I’ve been thinking about before.

Is this okay?

No, that’s because I killed them all or sent them to prison, so the early villains were empty, right?

I just want to revise the novel in an interesting way, not to deprive the main character of all opportunities to grow.

It was good for them to enjoy their academy life, but it was at the point where they needed a villain who would stimulate them in moderation.

It’s even more necessary when you think about the world after graduation.

But even if you suddenly try to find an attractive villain right away or a villain who will help him grow, there’s no way there’s a suitable guy, right?

I brushed off the mask and tried it on.

It didn’t seem like anything had changed, but luckily there was an artifact by my side to examine.

-Ho, it’s amazing. It just feels like you’re not. Because of the foreign aura, unless you have a fairly good insight, you won’t be able to see through it.

“That’s a relief.”

So, wait a minute. Until you find a good villain and raise it.

“From now on, I will be in the dark in this area.”

I plan to play the pleasant dark side of the academy.

I’ve been thinking about the new guys I’ll bring in as my subordinates, too.

Well, of course, it’s not going to start right away.

I took the bottle containing the liquid incorruptible doll and looked at the last remaining black spirit.

The one coiled like a black snake had already escaped from the body of its previous owner.

Hmm, to be honest, I’m a bit hesitant about signing a contract with this guy.

Well, it’s not an artifact with a huge penalty, but this guy leaves a huge mark on his body when he contracts it.

When you sign a contract with this artifact, a pattern that looks like a second grader will appear somewhere on your body to the extent that it is impossible to excuse it.

“Is it time to cover that up…”

To pretend to be a villain, it was true that simply strengthening and dying were honestly not enough.

The Dark Spirit is a relic that is quite strong even in this state and is a special relic that can even awaken, so it was right to make a contract as long as the other side didn’t reject it.

Honestly, I had high hopes that he might reject it, but the moment I cautiously reached out my hand, he was wrapped around my arm as if he had waited.

Ugh, no fucking arms…! You won’t be noticed if you wear summer clothes…!

Otherwise, he seemed to like my left hand, like a snake, opened his mouth and bit off the back of my hand.

For a while, a small tattoo appeared on the back of my hand as if the contract had been successfully completed.

I didn’t like the winged snake-like pattern, but it was fortunate that the size wasn’t too big.

“Now we have everything to get.”

Now all I have to do is conceal it, but luckily the black spirit I just got had the perfect function.

“…Black spirit.”

The black shadow within my body wriggled as if answering a call.

“Eat.”

A huge mouth appeared from the back of the hand and devoured without hesitation what was its owner a few minutes ago.

For him, he was just following his new master’s orders, but he couldn’t help but get a little goosebumps.

Predation.

The power to deal with the shadow of the black spirit resets every time the owner changes, and gets stronger every time you feed it something.

A shadow resembling a black snake rubbed against me as if the first meal was quite satisfactory, but to be honest, it was more scary than cute.

As I approached the dormitory one step at a time, I felt tired.

It seems that the relief from the relief of having done a big job without any mistakes has brought back fatigue, and maybe the pressure of killing a person for the first time was more severe than I thought.

Of course, it was a conclusion that I came to after careful consideration.

The decision to kill him without restraining him, and the decision to take care of it now instead of catching him safely later were all things that I did after a lot of thought, but even so, I can’t help but think of it.

If it was Lilac, would he have killed him?

Is there any way to solve this without killing him?

And the answer to the question that came up this time was the same.

It had to be killed, there was no such method.

If he had been a little more sincere in love, he might have been able to solve it, but in the end, his lowly possessive desire had overtaken love for a long time, and if he was kept alive without killing him, he would feel resentment rather than grace.

“Oops.”

“Uh.”

I met a familiar face on my way to the dormitory with heavy steps.

Chae Yoo-jin.

Oddly enough, she is a woman who meets every time something big happens. In the original work, she was an extra who probably died like Sohyun Kang.

“Where are you going at this time?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“…You look a bit tired, are you okay?”

I’m not really close with her, but since she’s saying things like this, I guess she’s not the way she is right now.

“Excuse me. To be honest, I don’t even know what happened, and it’s a mess, but don’t regret it too much.”

“…What?”

Ah, it’s not his fault, but the words came out a little nervously.

You may feel offended, but she continued with a smile.

“It has already been done. If you’re going to regret it, you wouldn’t have done it in the first place, and didn’t you do it because you thought it was the best choice?”

It was a bit strange.

You wouldn’t even know what happened to me, but in a way, it was a consolation that accurately penetrated my situation.

“As I said before, my hobby is observing other people. I just looked uglier than usual, so I tried messing around.”

“…Ah, sir. I was almost impressed.”

“Well? Do you think it’s too early to be impressed?”

“What are you talking about?”

“It is up to someone other than me to impress Sohyeon. You probably won’t regret it?”

It was a voice too confident to be merely comforting.

“…How do you know that?”

“When you observe people, you see many things. Mr. Sohyun seems to think that if he doesn’t do anything, everyone else stops, but when I’m doing something, other people are doing something too.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m telling you to go back to the dormitory soon~ Anything more than this is a spoiler, so I will refrain!”

She turned around with a giggly smile, just like when we first met.

“…What’s in the dormitory?”

*

The moment she arrived, she smelled something delicious.

“Huh? Sohyun, come quickly! Hurry!”

“Oh, what. Still, I think it’s a bit better than breakfast, right?”

“…What are you guys doing?”

“That’s why I call the other boys to the boys’ dormitory, no matter what.”

To put it simply, Lilac was holding a cake and wearing funny glasses and a hat, while Hani Kang was cooking.

“I bought it with the kids because I thought you were in a bad mood. Surprised?”

“The rice will be ready soon, so wait. If you start with cake, you won’t be able to eat.”

To be honest, I was a bit surprised.

I knew she noticed that she was feeling down, but she didn’t expect to prepare for an event like this.

“Professor Cathy and Yuna also helped to buy the cake.”

“Really?”

Saying that secret friend, the pink chihuahua spent his money because of me…?

I didn’t buy it just because Lilac asked me to buy it…?

“Uh, studying abroad said that even if you don’t have that, you’ll overcome it on your own.”

…Ah, Mr.

It hurts my pride.

I felt strangely hurt that I was moved by such a classic development.

“Thank you.”

Yes, this was enough for now.

For the classic and childish happy ending I wanted to see, none of them should die.

Let’s be content with being able to keep them.

“…Uh.”

“…Wow?”

But the two of them who actually heard me say thank you were dumbfounded.

“…Can you smile and say thank you?”

“If I told the kids tomorrow, they wouldn’t believe it, right?”

No, but these bastards said people were most grateful.

“…Really, I’ll only look after you today.”

Still, it wasn’t a bad feeling.
