Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer - Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer chapter 146

146 – Club (1)

Wow.

I feel strength in my body. A feeling of energy that is quite different from the brain energy of the supernatural ability that I normally felt.

This was definitely the power of a dragon.

“Inhale.”

After taking a short breath, I extend my fist. Strike the iron doll in front of you along a straight, simple, monotonous path.

Kwagwagwagwang!!

Soon, the sound of an explosion.

A thick cloud of dust and smoke rose, and as soon as it was revealed, there was no place for the iron doll to stand.

Should we call it a scene of clean destruction?

“Huh… ….”

In fact, it was a result that even I, who threw my fist, did not expect to be able to destroy the iron doll at the academy training ground so easily.

Aren’t these objects secretly produced and sent from an underground laboratory?

As far as I know, there were only a few people in this academy who could crush that iron doll with a single blow, even in terms of numbers. At most, there are probably about twenty people across all four grades.

Right now, I was one of them.

Clap clap clap-

It was a time when I was looking down at the fragments of the collapsed iron doll, admiring it alone, and feeling somewhat shocked.

Suddenly, applause is heard from behind.

The person standing there watching me was none other than a girl with silver hair and red eyes.

For me, Eve will be someone who can be called a senior and older sister.

Even though she was smiling brightly, she didn’t stop clapping her hands.

“That’s amazing, junior. “I’m not sure, but it seems like you’ve gained some kind of incredible power?”

“hahahaha…….”

I just smiled sheepishly and thought of something else.

‘I didn’t know either.’

Actually, considering how embarrassed I was, I would have been more surprised than Eve, at least not less. That’s right, isn’t it?

Until now, I’ve definitely never used any abilities other than Thunder.

There was a time when I stretched out my fist while feeling brain energy. However, I never had the thought that I could crush steel with pure force and strength.

I never expected something like this when I first came to Yongin.

‘…… Tsumei: You didn’t tell me that on purpose, right? Why did you leave out this important thing and waste so much time with useless warnings?’

It was so out of nowhere that I started laughing at Tsumei.

I never thought that just by having the heart of a dragon, my physical abilities would reach the level of a superhuman. There is no way you can think.

‘With this feeling, I think I can use thunderbolt to some extent.’

I swallowed dryly, feeling a little nervous, and a small spark appeared on the palm of my hand.

It was a manifestation of brain energy.

Pajik, Pajik!

The small fluttering pure white lightning was completely controlled in my hands. There is no sign of it getting away on its own.

If I were to induce it in this state, I felt like I would be shot in some way.

At least right now, 30% of my maximum output was contained within this small thunderbolt, so even if it was a little less than Flügel, it was more than enough.

At least this one far exceeded my expectations.

At this point, I wanted to break it cleanly one more time and move on, but…….

“…… Hmm.”

Anyway, it was a space that I was able to enter by briefly borrowing the authority of the student council vice president.

I already broke one of the iron dolls, but it was a bit weird to do it as I pleased.

So, I turned to Eve and thought it would be okay, and thanked her for lending me access.

“Is it okay to use more? “I don’t care.”

Until Eve suddenly said that. What, did you read my thoughts?

“No, um.”

I was briefly embarrassed, but it was a time when I was about to decline. As expected, it was Eve’s role to interrupt me.

“It’s really okay. Junior, feel free to use whatever you want. Always.”

“… ….”

“Don’t be reluctant, my sister is sincere towards my younger brother.”

“… ….”

When I heard those words, I completely hesitated.

What can I say, I really appreciate your words.

I feel like the spirit of something is too strong, or it’s like I can get a glimpse of something’s intentions under the guise of a halo. It’s not an intuition, it’s an intuition.

‘Hmm.’

But, what can I do? This training center exclusively for honor students was not a place that I could use as I pleased, as I was only a first year student, so I could not accept this opportunity just because I felt uneasy about something.

Now that I’m here, I feel like I have to get my money’s worth.

Dismissal… ….

So I gathered the lightning again.

That thunderbolt first turned into a sphere and settled calmly in my hand.

Pajik, Pajijik…… !

Soon, the size gradually increases.

Little by little bigger, little by little wider.

The shape of the thunderbolt created in this way may be a bit cliché, but it took on the appearance of the sword that I am most familiar with.

Rather than being such an elegant weapon, I thought it would look better with a white stick, but whatever.

Anyway, for me, the weapon that I feel most comfortable with is the sword.

Of course, there was Flügel’s influence.

Actually, there is nothing particularly inconvenient, and I have no intention of looking for another weapon now. I decided to just swing it like that.

A slightly more ferocious brain energy swirls around the pure white stick.

Eve, who was standing next to me, also opened her eyes wide like a rabbit.

The iron doll had just been refilled(?).

‘Yeonhwageomgyeol (蓮火劍訣), ritual ceremony ceremony (第四招式).’

I drew my sword.

-The flower of Yasha (夜叉).

What appears on the intangible sword is a spinning cart wheel. If you look at it without the remnants of lightning constantly fluttering about, it would probably be worthy of being called a fire wheel.

Move forward.

The wheel of white flame was aimed at the iron doll precisely, without even a single tremor.

And finally.

Quung… ….

The sun touched the iron doll.

Pajik-!

At that moment, the light flashes.

‘Oops.’

I quickly shut my mouth. I had no choice but to shut up.

Just a little bit, I failed to control my strength.

It is not 30%.

Maybe 50%?

I was taken aback by the sudden change in output, much less what I had intended, but at the same time, something occurred to me.

That’s why there was one thing I could realize.

‘This can’t be right.’

I look down at my body for a moment. To be precise, it confirms the heat of the heart that is still spinning violently.

It was trivial, but I couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.

Isn’t this a bit too hot right now?

No matter how much I think about it, it’s twice as much as before.

Quaaa!!

Thoughts that came to mind and inferences that could be considered reasonable did not go any further.

The explosion was faster than that.

“Huh?”

For a brief moment, the voice that reached my ears was clearly Eve’s. Perplexity, disbelief, absurdity. In addition, even that brief, fleeting gaze directed at me, which is truly subtle.

I thought to myself.

‘I was wrong.’

Apologised succinctly. It would be nice if my inner thoughts were conveyed in a timely manner.

Whaaahhh…… !

Just before that, the aftermath of the explosion hit us quickly.

Extremely intense heat, this time it was a storm of pure heat created not by the heart but by the brain.

*****

“Junior.”

“Yes.”

“Of course, I said that it doesn’t matter if you use it however you want.”

“…… Yes.”

“…… Anyway, isn’t this a bit much?”

As Eve’s words continued, my head couldn’t help but drop lower and lower. It’s not like it’s ripe rice.

Rather, it’s an underripe rice cake. Shouldn’t you at least lower your head?

“No shame, sister.”

“…… “It’s only in times like this, sister.”

But anyway, in response to my sincere apology(?), Eve withdrew her cold gaze, which was unusual for someone to direct her toward me.

It was fortunate. I was a little scared.

“Ha, what can I say about this…” ….”

But that aside, the fact that the current situation is extremely difficult does not change. Of course it is.

I am so immature that I have not been able to control my strength properly and ended up destroying one of the academy’s facilities.

In fact, no matter how bad he was at controlling his strength, it was even more absurd that he could half destroy a building surrounded by layers of protective magic.

From noble mtl dot com

Even if it was a one-story building.

“Hmm.”

At that point, I cleared my throat and carefully observed Eve’s behavior.

But anyway, isn’t this something I did?

I had no intention of leaving it up to her to clean up after her. That didn’t work either.

“I will contact the professor separately. “I think they’ll probably just cover it up.”

And she said her words like that.

That wasn’t a lie.

If I were actually the girl I was trying to contact, I would definitely be able to cover up this trivial(?) Incident and let her handle it.

…… Of course, you will probably get scolded.

That was when Eve turned her head to my words and expressed her doubts.

“…… Professor? “What kind of professor?”

The unusually beautiful frowning expression on her face made me think that it was a beautiful face in its own right, but even so, the doubts she had about her seemed serious, even if only slightly.

She continued her words, looking up at me with concern.

“Hey, junior. “I don’t know which professor you are talking about, but I would rather have the student council cover this up.”

And they say it as if they can’t do that. Anyway, since my name is on the use of this training facility, I will try to organize it well. She said

Of course, I was still making an expression that seemed like I was not in a good mood, so she finally added a few words.

“…… In fact, sometimes professors are not always student-friendly. “There are some strange people sometimes.”

He looked very bitter and strangely humble, as if he didn’t really want to reveal the truth.

“If you choose the wrong professor, you could end up in big trouble. This is not simply because I am trying to be considerate of my junior, but because it might be better to upload the documents to the administration office from here.”

Her words ended like that. If you think about it, nothing was wrong.

‘But.’

Still, there was one thing she didn’t know right now.

I thought to myself, grinning.

‘Because what I’m trying to call you is not an ordinary professor like those found everywhere.’

Anyway, even though it’s only been four days, isn’t Tsumei completely absent?

Naturally, there is someone who must act on behalf of the dean.

And that kind of person and professor is, in fact, a person with whom I have a certain level of familiarity. So she was that kind of woman…

She was truly a wonderful person who would be our babysitter for the next few days.

Without giving Eve any further response, I immediately put my hand into her arms.

After Tsumei left for the depths of the underground, she soon came to visit us and perhaps we had received a call from her. One item was delivered to her.

I activated the signal by breathing some energy into the small crystal ball. And remember at the same time.

…… As expected, the heart of the dragon was the greatest act of my life.

‘I never thought the day would come when I would be able to use a crystal ball.’

I was truly amazed and gently rubbed the crystal ball. This was a new model, unlike the one in Howard’s stone tower.

In fact, it is an item that cannot be used without magical power or mana.

But now I have the heart of a dragon!

‘It feels very lonely and empty that Flügel is gone, but I guess it’s not as bad as it is.’

It was around the time when I was fully enjoying the magic of my heart, feeling satisfied with the world.

“…… Huh?”

Eve suddenly let out a voice full of embarrassment.

Her eyes soon reach the blue skies of the Academy.

I also raised my head, and ‘that thing’, which I probably couldn’t see clearly before, was now clearly coming into my field of vision.

Floating in the sky was none other than a black dot.

However, as the surrounding mana gradually began to be sucked into the opposite direction, the black dots also gradually began to take on a proper shape.

There was a woman with purple hair right there.

“…… What.”

Soon, Eve also seemed to have identified her face, which I was able to see.

“Helena?”

And immediately say her name.

The academy’s second-in-command and one of the great wizards.

I was able to see the level of her status by looking at the fact that she dropped the title ‘professor’ and immediately added an honorific title.

Of course, it was a bit unfamiliar to me.

Is it because I’ve only seen Tsumei suffer one way or another? Poor thing.

“… ….”

Anyway, it’s been a while since she sent her signal like that, and Helena quickly got down to where we were.

She had a calm expression that did not give any indication that she was in a hurry.

However, the moment he looked at me, then at Eve, and finally at the training center building where one wall was slightly collapsed, he looked a little startled.

Soon her suspicious gaze turned towards me.

“Dante student?”

“Yes, Professor.”

She called me, and I answered her. Very calmly and weakly.

The dazed look on Helena’s face probably wouldn’t go away easily.

“Of course, I gave you a crystal ball and told you to call me if anything happens. “I really had no idea it would be used in this way.”

First of all, Helena looked at me in a friendly tone that clearly revealed her personality, as if she was truly embarrassed.

It’s a bonus to have her lips slightly purring.

“…… Aside from everything else, why did you destroy the building? “What did you do to end up like this?”

Even so, she said, as if she had no intention of not taking the time to question him at all.

However, she was restoring the building by generating mana.

So, after thinking for a moment, I awkwardly scratched my cheek and expressed my intention by saying, ‘I didn’t know it would end up like this either.’

And speak carefully.

“I’m sorry. “I was just really training, and I failed to control my strength just once.”

I didn’t say anything after that, but I guess you could roughly understand it.

Actually, there was nothing to call it a complicated situation.

As we were just rolling back the remains of the building one by one, Helena looked down at me with an expression she couldn’t describe.

It was as if she was looking at her nephew, whom she could not stop.

“…… Okay, okay, let’s go now.”

Then what he said was like that.

Means to leave the place quickly.

As she glanced around, she had completed 50% of the restoration of her building. I thought to myself as I looked at her like that.

As expected, he is an archmage. His performance is solid.

Anyway, Helena continued talking.

“The sound of the collapse must have been heard all around, and administrative staff will be arriving soon. I’ll organize it well, so don’t get involved and go quickly. “Isn’t it already time to be busy deciding which club to join?”

At the same time, he pushed Eve’s back with a little mana, and the last time he looked at me as if he was in a lot of trouble was exquisite.

Just before we nodded and left, Helena suddenly said something like this.

“I will properly convey this matter to the dean. “A Dante student demolished a building, so I had to clean up the place.”

Oh.

*****

Anyway, anyway, the small incident ended with Helena getting help from Mong.

Eve and I stopped by the canteen instead of the student cafeteria and picked up some snacks.

“…… Were you familiar with Helena? “Our junior.”

And the first thing Eve said was that feeling. It’s as if it’s surprising and unexpected in many ways.

At the same time, it was cute to see them eating each piece of chocolate brownie like a small animal.

‘It’s a time when I want to pull and see.’

I watched her eating snacks for a while, and before long, I returned her answer with a nod of her head.

“It just so happened that it happened like that. It must have been when I had just arrived at the academy, and I had developed a bit of a connection with the dean at the time. So naturally, with him.”

“…… Aha… ….”

And at my concise explanation, Eve paused for a moment and put down the brownie she was holding.

The awkwardness lasted only for a moment, but I was not one to not notice the strange movements and slightly darkened expression.

‘You’re probably thinking about something strange again, right?’

Even though I couldn’t know the details, I had a strange guess. Should I say that I can only guess?

Just looking at it, I guess I’m writing a long story about my struggles before entering the academy.

As there really wasn’t any hard work before entering the academy, this is a reaction I can’t help but feel strange about.

But I thought that if I added anything, Eve’s delusions would only increase, so I decided to just stay quiet.

“It’s more than that, senior. “There’s something I want to ask you.”

Instead, I decided to simply change the topic.

Even if that wasn’t the case, there was one thing I wanted to ask.

-Isn’t it time to be busy deciding which club to join?

What comes to mind is something I briefly heard just before we parted ways with Helena.

If you think about it, there was definitely something like that. Club.

As the main setting was an academy, it was impossible not to encounter cliches typical of an academy film.

In this world, clubs were like that.

“Is there a club you recommend that I could join? “Why, isn’t it just the season for first-year students to enter school?”

I asked Eve, who turned around at the call, those words, and she tilted her head to the side, as if all other random thoughts had gone away.

“…… “Is it a club?”

And he continues his thoughts with a serious attitude.

“If you think about it, it really happened that way. It’s already the second semester. Since you went to Yeongsan and went straight to Jedo Island, you were probably a little late…….”

The words I was muttering to myself were something I also knew.

That applies not only to me, but also to other first-year students who headed to the system together.

When I heard it, most of the other first graders had already decided on a club to join or had already completed their registration.

So this is a situation where you have to make a decision quickly.

‘Most popular clubs often place restrictions on new students joining.’

Anyway, there is a high probability that it has already been completed in really major clubs such as swordsmanship clubs or magic clubs.

I can picture Aria crying and hitting the ground.

“Um, um. Umm… ….”

In any case, Eve’s worries had no choice but to prolong.

It seems like he was at a loss as to what to say in response.

Was it really like that? The current situation was not very positive.

I too had no choice but to begin to suffer seriously.

“Oh, well, if you’re interested, the literary club or the cooking club aren’t bad places to enjoy school life…… ?”

“Uh, no. Anyway, that’s a bit much.”

Of course, Eve’s words were rejected with every word she said.

I don’t like the fluffy atmosphere.

“Yeah, I see. So, you didn’t like it…….”

Eve muttered with a slightly depressed expression, so I flinched for a moment, but…

“But, um. “Junior.”

What was problematic was what Eve said next.

She glanced at me awkwardly, licking the chocolate cream on the back of my hand.

And says:

“If it’s not really that kind of place, the clubs that you might like are probably already full…… ?”

“… ….”

I knew deep down, but I didn’t really want to hear it from her mouth again, a word about the unfortunate situation.

I closed my eyes and sighed deeply.

Of course, there is probably no club that appeals to you so much that you say, ‘I must join this club!’

Of course, as a player, I have joined clubs several times, so I know enough to know what clubs exist.

In addition, for academy students, joining a club is mandatory. This meant that it was not a free choice or recommendation.

Then, do I really need to join the literature club or the cooking club?

‘No, it’s not like that.’

If you look, you will find that there are other clubs, but even so, most of them have gardens left for similar reasons.

I guess there are generally three reasons?

I started reciting the three reasons one by one in my mind.

1. It’s not fun.

2. There is no emotion.

3. There are no people.

“… ….”

It doesn’t work either. This wasn’t it. Anyway, I didn’t want to decide on the club where I would spend most of the second semester for the next three years.

I once again became serious and continued to worry.

‘The time spent on club activities alone must be enormous, so we can’t just waste it. At the very least, I need a place where I can train the heart strength I just gained.’

In addition, I needed a place to properly deal with the ‘specificity’ of this heart, which I had noticed at first glance while smashing the iron doll and the building itself at the training ground just moments ago.

…… What should I do with this?

The solution is, where and under what name is a club waiting for me that can solve my concerns?

I was thinking about something that probably had no meaning.

‘…… For a moment.’

An idea flashes through my mind for a moment.

It was really sudden, but I had an idea that somehow boosted my motivation.

‘Do I really need to join another club?’

If you think about it, isn’t it true? Of course, most first-year students at the Academy are 100% likely to join already established clubs in the second semester.

Is there any reason why I must follow that route?

After a short weighing, I came to a conclusion.

No. There was no such reason.

“Senior.”

So, I immediately called Eve.

Then he immediately shook his head.

“Oh, this is not it. “Not a senior.”

And correct the title.

“Sister Eve.”

“…… Yes?”

Eve showed a noticeable reaction to my words.

Should I say that it is really easy to understand?

I tried to pretend otherwise, but before I knew it, Eve kept twitching the corner of her mouth and a blush appeared on both of her cheeks. You seem to be in a good mood.

Anyway, for that reason I spoke to her.

“I’m trying to create a club.”

That was the main point.

“Could you please support this one and only younger brother’s dreams and passion?”

“…… Yes? “Wait a minute, junior.”

“Ah, preferably in the form of a little active support.”

Eve’s blush momentarily disappeared and her expression hardened, but that didn’t matter at all.

She has already been caught in a trap.

“Sister. “It’s really not that big of a deal.”

I said to Eve, putting the harmless ‘smile of her cousin’ on her lips.

“Could you become the club manager for me?”

“?!!”

And I think. One of the rules of the club.

-The manager of all academy clubs must be at least a sophomore.

-First-year students are also eligible for positions below deputy director.

Now, I needed a barge boss.

Right before my eyes, there was a qualified talent for that.
