Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy - Chapter 302
301 – A New Beginning_1
-No matter how thoroughly you prepare, there are bound to be flaws and mistakes as long as you are human. And even if you don’t have any flaws or mistakes, your skills may fall short.
That’s right.
No one is perfect.
-And even though the world may seem simple at first glance, if you look closely, isn’t it full of irrationality?
I don’t know about that.
What is irrational?
I didn’t get the feeling.
-So I don’t think we can say that the plan will definitely succeed.
What’s the plan?
By the way, I don’t know what you’re talking about.
-You don’t need to know. What I’m just saying is that people should think about the possible scenarios for everything. Of course, even if you think about the possible scenarios, it’s something that people do and prepare for, so it’s not like there are no loopholes or mistakes.
What on earth are you talking about?
Why do you say that?
-If I can avoid eye contact and buy some time, that’s enough for me.
Who the hell are you to me…
“Oppa─”
Kyle Asmond woke to the sound of a familiar voice in his ear and the weight on his stomach.
Then he saw a beautiful girl riding on his boat.
Shining silver hair, glowing red eyes, pale skin.
She was an impressive girl with an appearance that almost seemed to suffer from albinism.
“what.”
“It’s morning.”
The girl smiled brightly.
“I know that too.”
The sunlight streaming in through the curtains on the window is stinging my eyes.
Don’t you know it’s morning?
“What’s with that reaction? My lovely little brother came to wake me up like this. This is hilarious.”
The girl puffed out her cheeks.
It seemed like Kyle Asmond wasn’t happy with the answer.
However, Kyle Asmond didn’t care about the girl’s feelings.
“Ugh. What’s so lovely… Hey, it’s heavy, so don’t talk nonsense and get out of the way.”
More importantly, it was the weight pressing down on his stomach.
Kyle struggled to shake the girl off.
“You’re telling lies again. Oh, I see. Seeing your beautiful sister this morning, did you feel a dark desire arise?”
But the girl remained motionless despite the shaking, and instead just smiled sinisterly.
“Why won’t the gloomy desires go away quickly?”
For Kyle, it was just mind-boggling.
Brother and sister are beings who were genetically programmed to kill each other from birth.
But where is that idiot who breaks the so-called natural order and lusts after his younger sister?
If there was one, it was clearly an entity that was incorrectly completed at the genetic level.
“It’s okay. I can understand even a brother like that.”
“Get out!!”
So Kyle, unable to bear the nonsense any longer, twisted his body to try to throw the girl off.
“Weak.”
But the girl did not fall.
Instead, she just held on by wrapping the blanket around Kyle and putting her legs in a little further between Kyle’s twisted body.
“Ugh.”
Kyle struggled to somehow shake the girl off the situation.
But the more he did that, the stronger the girl’s legs became, and soon Kyle was out of breath before he opened his mouth to the girl.
“Let go.”
“I don’t like it.”
“I told you to let it go.”
“I told you to let it go~”
But the girl didn’t listen to Kyle and just kept teasing him.
And yet, the leg strength grows stronger.
“How… can I… get you to let me go?”
Finally, when his mind was at its wits’ end, Kyle swallowed his pride.
“Um. If you call my name?”
“name…?”
“Okay. If you call my name and tell me you love me, I’ll let you go.”
“that…”
Kyle couldn’t do that much.
Because that was something that went against nature.
“If you don’t like it, there’s nothing I can do.”
But I couldn’t refuse.
The girl, as if she wasn’t at full strength yet, started to push herself harder.
I can hear the crunching sound of bones, and if I keep going like this, I’m really going to die.
Kyle closed his eyes tightly.
“Lee…Ah…I…love…you.”
“Not yet.”
“…what?”
“No, it’s nothing. I love you too, oppa.”
The girl answered with a smile.
But Kyle didn’t hear what the girl said properly.
That was because the vision was dark.
“Brother?”
The girl then relaxed her legs and tapped Kyle’s face, but there was no response.
“Ah. I made a mistake. Today is my first day as an exchange student at Laplace Academy.”
The girl muttered as if she was ruined.

In a small room where darkness had fallen, a monitor placed on one side of the room gave off a small light.
A woman sitting on a chair, staring at the light with lifeless eyes, scrolled down the mouse wheel ceaselessly until she came across a post and stopped the wheel.
[Summary of the Eastern Army Alliance Okinawa incident from July xx to August xx, 20xx.]
“…..”
The woman thought about it for a while and then clicked on the post.
-Click.
The screen on the monitor was densely filled with text and pictures.
[This post contains the author’s subjective opinions added to the Hero Association headquarters announcement regarding the Okinawa incident and reports from various governments.]
[If there is anything incorrect in this post, please tell me separately in a private comment. I will not accept any other criticism or tackles.]

The incident began when Taylor Marvel, who was on vacation in Okinawa, went missing at the Hakushiri Inn…]
The woman who had been reading the beginning of the post grabbed her mouse and scrolled down again.
Because I had seen them over and over again, and because they were not important.
-Knock knock.
The screen quickly reached the break in the post.
[…That is why the Okinawa incident received the attention and interest of the world, and almost escalated into a war between the great powers, and there were extraordinary concerns and words of concern from all over the world, but as you all know, the ending was a series of shocks and twists, and it ended in vain without getting any bigger. The reason is because it became an unprecedented situation where not a single person related to the incident disappeared or woke up from the hospital.]
-Knock knock.

[Yukina Ishihara, who was disguised as a student at Laplace Academy and a member of the villain organization Astra’s Numbers, which was identified as the real culprit, was subdued after the battle with the Sword Master and disappeared on the way to a special facility.]

[Separate from the Okinawa incident, there was a brief escalation over who attacked first in the clash in the Ogasawara Islands, but with the intervention of countries around the world, the leaders of the Holy Empire and the Eastern Alliance met and succeeded in reaching a dramatic compromise after a long meeting lasting 283 hours. The contents included the launch of a joint investigation team. Starting with taking responsibility based on the results of the investigation…]
[Of course, even if the incident was concluded like this, the public opinion of both the Holy Empire and the Eastern Alliance was not good due to the countless casualties and injuries that occurred during the incident….]

But the content of the interrupted part was not what the woman wanted.
The woman rolled the wheel and scrolled down the post.
The last part of the post that arrived like that.
[The above link is a list of victims of this incident, as identified by the World Heroes Association headquarters and countries around the world, for the bereaved families or acquaintances of the victims. If you are not involved or wish to use it for purposes other than searching…]
The woman clicked on the link deftly, as if she had done so dozens or hundreds of times before, without even reading the description or warning.
Then a small pop-up window appeared with several white boxes and a magnifying glass-shaped Find button.
The woman moved the mouse and clicked on the white box.
Then the cursor blinks as if telling you to enter something.
The woman absentmindedly took out her keyboard and typed in each letter.
And then in the next white box. And in the next white box. And in the next white box.
The woman, who had now filled in all the white boxes, placed her mouse cursor over the Find button at the bottom of the pop-up window.
“…..”
But I couldn’t click.
When I tried to click, my hand holding the mouse started shaking and my body started to flinch.
When the woman couldn’t calm down, she bit the nail on the hand opposite the one holding the mouse.
Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack.
But no matter how much I bit, it didn’t calm down.
Instead, a small red stream dripped from the corner of the woman’s mouth.
It’s not that women don’t have feelings.
The haphazardly cut fingernails were tangled up in my mouth and it was unpleasant.
The flesh where I bitten fell off and it was painful and miserable.
A variety of other emotions ran through my hands, mouth, and brain.
Still, the woman just bit her nails, or rather her hands, because she was more afraid of clicking the find button.
Soon, something black and red was stuck to the corner of the woman’s mouth and under the chair, as if she had spilled a drink and not wiped it away.
My vision became blurry, and the screen on my monitor seemed to be disconnected from reality.
Only then did the woman, who had finally come to her senses, cautiously click the right mouse button on the search button, feeling as if she was looking at a dreamlike scene.
A new page has appeared.
The new page contained a picture of the person, their name, gender, and whether they were dead.
The woman’s mind instantly returned from her dream to reality.
“…no.”
He shook his head.
“…No.”
Denied.
“no!!!”
He slammed the table.
But nothing changed.
The woman’s eyes looked sharp.
A picture of someone so familiar.
A name that has been called over and over again.
And it was marked as dead in the death status.
“Seonghyun.”
The woman called out a name desperately with reddened eyes.
