A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 566



566 – While They Were Away (1)

After the break, Seolhwa’s day was surprisingly simple.

When Luna leaves for class, she closes her eyes and meditates or wanders around the academy.

Although he would stand out wherever he went due to his beautiful appearance and noble aura, he was surprisingly quiet.

“Excuse me, ma’am.”

“what?”

“May I ask your name?”

I almost got annoyed by the strange attention I got. Thanks to that, I remembered the days before I was worshipped as a heavenly demon.

Seolhwa also knows very well how special her appearance is. That’s why she has been through many situations.

There was a time when I almost became a victim of human trafficking when I didn’t know anything. Of course, they killed me as soon as I tried to touch them.

Even if it wasn’t human trafficking, there were often people who flirted like this. It was annoying and didn’t yield any results.

Then what did you do? I just erased the memory and quietly escaped. If it were up to me, I would have killed him without anyone knowing.

‘If you do that, your partner will hate you.’

But I knew Shivar would hate it, so I gladly spared his life.

Well, actually, it’s also because it’s more of a hassle to clean up the body. It would be easy if you just erase the memories.

Thanks to that, I was able to erase all traces of his presence and blur his perception, allowing me to walk around leisurely.

During my break, I enjoyed normal consumer life, such as eating delicious ice cream or drinking tea.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve seen something like this.’

It’s a memory from almost 100 years ago. It’s about living an ordinary life, not like a heavenly horse.

Thanks to their overwhelming military power, they were never in financial need. Even without that, there were many people who gave them money.

Other people said she lacked social skills and that she needed to gain more experience, but she was able to lead a relatively ‘normal life’.

Sociality is also a type of intuition. And Seolhwa doesn’t feel the need to be aware of others, so she just acts confidently.

They know very well that they become annoyed by the attention they receive, so they use it as a means.

‘The academy is a place where the West and the East are in harmony. Its reputation is not in vain.’

As expected, you have to see the world for yourself to know it. That’s what Seol-hwa thought while eating chicken skewers.

After being worshipped as a heavenly horse for nearly 100 years, much of their knowledge about the outside world has faded.

The Academy existed 100 years ago, but it wasn’t of much interest at the time. But that doesn’t mean it was the first.

I lied to them, but I visited the academy as soon as I heard about its establishment, so I came almost at the beginning.

‘There weren’t many buildings back then.’

The power of time is tremendous. Even the arrogant Seolhwa respected time.

That’s why she has a sensitive part. She has been questioning the time lately.

It felt like the front and back were out of sync. It felt out of place because it was a purple transcendent being.

‘That devil must know. I’ll have to ask him next time I see him.’

Seol-hwa thought about that and put the remaining chicken skewers in her mouth. By the way, this was something she had paid a fair price for.

So where did the money come from? Of course, it came from Luna’s wallet.

It is only natural that Sulwha did not earn money by working separately.

It’s a good thing that there is no theft, robbery, or even pressure.

Luna will soon find out this fact and tears will flow from her eyes.

‘It’s better than spitting blood out of your mouth. Come to think of it, I heard you used to do something called stock trading.’

A world that has definitely developed compared to the past. Seolhwa enjoyed that feeling for the first time in a long time.

Humanity is truly amazing. It’s only been about 100 years since I started working as a celestial demon, but so much has changed.

It was my first time hearing the concept of stocks, and other things like various foods and scientific developments stimulated my curiosity.

In particular, the Academy was a place where Eastern and Western sciences were in harmony, so there was a lot to see.

‘Not bad.’

I am satisfied. This was the review that Sulwha gave after visiting the Academy.

To do a proper job, you need to socialize with people, but unfortunately, all the faces you know are out for training.

I heard that he’s been training for a whole month, so it’ll be hard to meet him. Luna also strongly advised him not to come.

Seolhwa also gladly accepted, as she had no intention of interfering with their training. Instead, she was only concerned about how to spend the month.

‘When I think about it this way, a month seems like a long time.’

It’s different from when I was locked up in Cheonmagung Palace every day. Back then, time seemed to fly by even if I just stayed still.

But now, time seems to pass relatively slowly because there are faces I want to see. It’s really strange.

Seolhwa thought about what to do this time and started walking. There were still familiar faces left.

Lord, the president of the Academy and praised as a swordsman. And Lize, who is revered as a saint and receives attention from the world of fairy tales.

I thought that if I played with these two, time would pass quickly. With that thought in mind, I headed to Lord’s residence.

“hmm?”

When she arrived at the front door of the house, Seolhwa felt two people coming from beyond the door.

One is a familiar sound, the other is an unfamiliar sound. Neither Lord nor his pet were felt.

‘Saint? And in front of that······’

The unfamiliar presence and scent coming from him are familiar. In the East, she is called Mother Earth, and in the West, she is called Gaia.

Unlike the openly hostile Gulag, Gaia is friendly to Seolhwa. However, Seolhwa wasn’t particularly interested in it.

Anyway, it is certain that there are priests who believe in Gaia. I hesitated to enter the story, but soon gave up.

‘Shibar, that student······’

Because I heard an interesting story from over there, Seolhwa listened to the story in silence.

Her appearance as she waited quietly in front of the door was very suspicious, but no one suspected anything.

It felt like someone who clearly existed but didn’t exist to other people. Thanks to that, I was able to eavesdrop on the whole story.

‘Hostile… I guess I could use it to my advantage.’

The corners of Seolhwa’s mouth rose at the words of the Gaia believer. Perhaps the author had no idea that the subject would be here.

It’s a strange situation, whether to say that they are unlucky or that Seolhwa is lucky.

‘Come to think of it, Mother Earth’s activities have become less frequent recently.’

As I listened to the story, I naturally thought about Gaia’s current situation. Gaia has been unusually quiet lately.

It feels like you’re sleeping. I’ve heard this from demonic believers too.

I need to investigate this at least once······

‘It’s annoying.’

······But I left it alone because it was annoying. You’ll find out why later.

After that, the two people inside came out and faced Seolhwa.

While Lize was puzzled by Seolhwa’s sudden appearance, Alexander was left wondering.

“Kneel down.”

“······yes?”

“I ordered you to kneel.”

Of course, after hearing the next order, I looked at her like she was some crazy b*tch.

Alexander’s long, bruised cheek twitched, but soon gave way to a gentle smile.

As I ascended to this position, I met all sorts of people. Among them were arrogant people who thought that what they saw was everything in the world.

Most of them were of noble or even royal descent. So they knew how to deal with them well.

“Haha. You are an interesting person. But I serve Gaia. I cannot kneel to anyone but Gaia.”

“What would you do if your wife was someone of that level?”

“······Please refrain from making insulting remarks toward Lady Gaia.”

A vein appeared on the forehead of the faithful Alexander. Sulwha’s smile grew even deeper at the sight.

He may appear gentle on the outside, but he cannot hide his suppressed violence. So Seol-hwa reached out.

Alexander narrowed his eyes for a moment as Sulwha reached out her hand, but then looked at her open palm and was dumbfounded.

“What the······”

That was the last thing he remembered. That doesn’t mean Seolhwa’s head exploded.

Alexander’s once bright eyes became dim. Seolhwa had used her power to blow away his consciousness.

“Okay. Now, kneel down.”

“yes······”

Alexander kneels down on one knee reverently when ordered again. This is a stark contrast to his previous attitude.

When Lize saw this, she looked at Seolhwa with a very rotten expression. Then she let out a long sigh and said.

“Please stop. What would you do if someone saw you?”

“I heard that you’re using my wife.”

“He doesn’t know yet how great you are. But he has a high social reputation, so if you mess with him, it’ll only cause trouble.”

“hmm.”

Since Lize’s words made sense, Sulwha raised Alexander up. His eyes were still blurry.

“Please erase my memories of this incident and send me back unharmed. If possible, don’t even think about using me.”

“Well, I don’t think so.”

“yes?”

“Iza is clearly loved by the Mother Earth. You can tell by feeling the energy she holds within her.”

This is something I realized while controlling Alexander. Alexander’s faith is sincere.

It’s so good that even Seolhwa is impressed. It’s similar to or even better than what I felt in the Demonic Cult.

But at the same time, I wondered. How could a god be so indifferent to such a devout being?

The moment Karado Seolhwa, the priestess who was favored by Gulag, was about to touch it, thunder rang out from the sky.

If I had tried to control it directly, it would have gotten so angry that it would have sent a spirit. But Gaia showed no signs of that.

“Come to think of it, all of Mother Earth’s activities have stopped recently. And we don’t even know why.”

“··· ···”

“At first I thought it was simply reducing interference. But that wasn’t the case. All activity stopped, as if it had fallen asleep.”

Then, Seolhwa faced Lize straight in the eye.

“Let me ask you just one thing.”

From noble mtl dot com

“······Please speak.”

“When did the Earth Mother’s activities stop? And······”

The question that came out of Seolhwa’s mouth was.

“Is it closely related to Shivar’s activities?”

It was a question that Lize found difficult to answer.
