Hidden Sanity at Villain School - Chapter 94
Only Noblemtl
(094)
The midterms are over.
School life in Shinseoul is back.
“Run! Run!”
“Deciphering formulas from page 132 to page 152. Memorize them all in 30 minutes!”
“Wow! Today is an outdoor class! We’ll be learning the US Special Forces-style field manual.”
The students are now shedding their freshman image and starting to be trained as individual hunters.
“Professor Kang Chae-seo! Touchdown!”
“Professor Maeng Do-sol. I have memorized all the detoxification formulas.”
“Prepare for tactical maneuver! Assault in formation number 3 at 4 o’clock! Standby to throw smoke grenades.”
Performance evaluations, mission evaluations, duel evaluations, and even midterms.
The overwhelming sight inside the gate and the attack by the horde of demons not only shocked the students, but also inspired them to improve.
The students in the lower ranks gritted their teeth and began to work hard, and the students in the upper ranks became determined when they saw that the students they had looked down on had grown to the point where they could catch up to them.
Sega was no exception.
‘I will make everything I hear true.’
Sega, then and now, was the student who woke up the earliest and returned to the dormitory the last.
“Did you take some kind of elixir or something?”
“I drank the top-grade magic affinity potion. It was good. My whole body felt full of strength.”
My friends asked me if I was tired, but these days, my body feels lighter as the days go by.
‘I have to go see Sunmi today too.’
After finishing evening training, I went to Seonmi’s dormitory and spent the night there. Then, I returned to his dormitory at dawn, slept for about two hours, woke up, reviewed the subjects I had to memorize, and continued my school life in the morning.
“The situation is good. It’s A+ for hot progress. Take a gift certificate worth 10 million won and three pieces of firewood.”
“thank you!”
“Since she came from a martial arts background, she’s the best at mixing physical exercise with physical exercise. Eun-yo is waiting for you, so go and practice with her.”
“All right.”
In the pyromancy class, we went into repeated mastery, such as practicing aiming multiple heat rays at one point, using ‘ignition’ in the air, and creating two or more ‘fireballs’ at once.
At the same time, he learned the ‘Yeoljinjang’ technique from the close combat technique ‘Yeomtu’, which was a technique that explosively radiated powerful heat from the palm to push away the opponent.
“That’s great. I think you’re as good as me at that. It’s hard to increase your physical strength with Cheongyeon.”
“Don’t tease me. I still have a long way to go.”
“Do you want to do them at the same time? Let’s see who gets pushed out.”
“… … Is that so?”
“Professor! Eunyo and Sega crashed into the wall and passed out! Sega suffered second-degree burns, and Eunyo’s head was cracked.”
“You crazy things!”
Lightning classes focused on mastering the ‘Chain Lightning’ and ‘Bio Radar’, which strike one target with lightning and then move on to the next target, and specialists including Sega even used the wide-area technique ‘Lightning Net’.
“Professor! I will try now!”
Sega had been promised an A+ if they could successfully send lightning from the fifth row to the fifth pillar, which they did.
‘Professor Hwa-ye Shin gives more gift certificates, but when you compare firewood and batteries, batteries seem to be more efficient.’
Je Seo-cheon looked at him with a mysterious expression and sighed.
“Hey. You’re starting to get a little angry. I understand why Kang Joo-hyuk is being such a jerk to you. I feel like an idiot when I see you.”
“What did you say? The best lightning wizard of the first year who succeeded in casting lightning net on the second try.”
In the psychokinesis class, we originally tried to focus on creating a more natural foundation for power.
‘But how did you do that back then?’
But after using the Aurora Magic Bullet once, I started to feel interested in, no, greedy for, telekinesis.
Suddenly, he looked up and saw that Banhaedo was staring at him as if he was going to pierce through him.
“good bye.”
I felt a little creeped out, so as soon as class was over, I picked up Joo Da-hyun and ran out of the classroom.
* * *
“Corpse Man. What was our next class?”
Many groups became closer together after the midterm exams, and Group 8 became even closer than them.
Not only did they originally maintain a good relationship, but the chemistry they developed while risking their lives fighting the demons of destruction began to show in their daily lives as well.
“This is the poison liquor that you like, young lady.”
“Thank you. Sega. Let’s go.”
“Okay. Let’s go. Do you want to get on? Or not?”
“Hug me. It’s more comfortable that way.”
Dahyun started crying before Sega could even say anything.
She looked up at Sega with the corners of her eyes furrowed like a fox’s.
“It was really tasty. Are you doing rehab exercises? Your leg muscles shouldn’t be stiff.”
“You’re working hard. You worked for three hours yesterday.”
“Good job. Then you should do it. Your legs must hurt too.”
Sega smiled as if he couldn’t stop her, put both arms under Dahyun’s back and knees, and hugged her.
It was the so-called princess hugging position.
“Okay. Let’s go.”
Dahyun shouted while hugging Sega’s neck, and Sega walked without losing his breath.
“Wow! As expected, the best first-year bodybuilder is different. I thought I was going to collapse when I supported Dahyun at the gate.”
This guy acted like he was on stage.
“… … Sigh.”
Iljinrim hardened his expression to keep from laughing.
“Corpse! That must be because you’re weak. Sega. Am I heavy?”
Dahyun turned her head sharply and glared at Sega, asking him a question.
“No. It’s as light as a feather. It’s so dry that I’m worried.”
Sega answered with a sad smile.
“You can easily lift a few tons now, right? I saw you in the self-training room the other day, and you had the load setting on your weightlifting artifact turned up to almost the maximum.”
Kyeom pretended to praise Sega and teased him, and eventually Dahyun used telekinesis to seal Kyeom’s mouth.
The members of Group 8 of Class 1 headed across the hallway to the venom classroom.
“Did you take too many sedatives? I’m hallucinating.”
“Joo Da-hyun’s personality has completely exploded.”
“Are you crazy? Are you really going around like that? You’re acting like a leader and you’re acting like a thug.”
“Honestly, I’m a little jealous that you hugged Sega?”
“what?”
The other first-year students were shocked when they saw Dahyun in Sega’s arms.
“Wow. There’s a real-time uproar on Yeopsi right now? Joo Da-hyun’s personality controversy is Yeopsi’s ‘Post of the Day.’ Someone even took a picture.”
Lee Gyeom saw the smartphone notification and started to laugh.
“Really? Give it to me.”
Iljinrim checked the angle of the photo that appeared on Gyeom’s smartphone screen to see where it was taken.
She strode towards the corner of the hallway.
“You, Gun?”
He pulled a KH3 automatic pistol from his waistband and aimed it at the male student who took the photo.
Crunch.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“answer.”
“To the headmaster… … .”
“answer!”
bang!
Iljinrim made the boy write down his writing and returned with the pack of tranquilizer cigarettes he was holding.
“Now, who can see it?”
Iljinrim asked Judahyun cautiously.
In fact, the reason she stepped forward just now was to prevent Dahyun from throwing the boy out the window.
“… … .”
Dahyun glared at the boy for a moment.
“That’s enough. I won’t worry about it.”
He shook his head and hugged Sega’s neck even tighter.
‘uh?’
The unpleasant scent of cinnamon mingled with the sweet, refreshing scent of acacia.
That day, in the poison technique class, the real field of the specialists came up.
“It’s the fine manipulation of the venom technique. Only by learning this can I neutralize or amplify the demonic nature with various substances produced from my body and create artifacts. It is closely related to telekinesis in that it involves manipulation at the molecular level. Open the textbook… … .”
* * *
Class is over.
“Thank you for your effort.”
As always, the students who had finished the poison-eating lesson were exhausted and slumped over as they left the classroom with heavy steps.
“Isn’t this Yuyu? I have something I want to ask you. Can I talk to you for a moment?”
At that time, Yu Yui, the 10th class’ venom ace, encountered an unexpected student.
“Huh, huh? What? Why, why?”
She looked up at him, stammering.
Hair that exposed his forehead, his signature easy-going smile, and the predatory aura that came from his broad shoulders and broad back.
A monster who passed the hellish midterm practical exam with first place.
The situation was 78% S-class.
“I have a favor to ask.”
ask?
Yuyu glanced at the crew members walking with Sega.
“Is that him? That poison master? The blue-haired rabbit, he looks like one. How cute.”
Iljinrim, a bloody demon from the first year who sleeps with a gun in his hand.
Just today, he pulled out a gun in the hallway and extorted cigarettes from a male student.
“He’s a good kid, but I don’t know if he can help me. I don’t want to disappoint you.”
Joo Da-hyun, the strongest psychic in the first year who is rumored to have murdered her father.
He is a true monster who even the professors of Shinsoul fight over because of his background as a rotten tycoon.
The number one student you should not get involved with.
“Wow, woah. Let’s speak nicely. I think you’re all listening right now.”
Lee Gyeom was known as a explorer who was only slightly well-informed and quick-witted, but he was the true victor who brought Jeong Se-gae, Il Jin-rim, and Ju Da-hyeon together.
They were the first-generation Shinseoul members who had nothing to do with her, who only knew how to use poison.
“What do you want?”
Yu Yui naturally lowered her eyes.
Jeong Se-ga gestured for me to follow him.
‘I guess it won’t work if I go there?’
She followed him, tensely, into an empty classroom near the venom lecture room and saw the artifact she had created.
“This. Did you make it?”
There was a motion detector there.
“Yeah. I made it. Was there a problem?”
Now that I think about it, it looks like the store told me it was sold out.
“If there is a problem with the function, I will provide after-sales service immediately. Ah. If it approaches underground, it is normal for it not to be detected until it rises to the surface. Also, it cannot detect objects moving at a speed of less than 1cm per second. If it detects that, the load will be too heavy.”
Yu Yui poured out her words with shining eyes that were a mixture of black and yellow-green.
“No, there were no problems. In fact, it worked very well.”
Jeong Se-ga shook his head as if to say that was not the case.
“You’re really amazing. I have a hard time even making potions. You’re a genius.”
He even gave her some compliments, seemingly to appease her.
The sight of him sitting on the desk with two buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his angular cleavage, and smiling carefreely was extremely unpleasant.
“Thank you. But it’s nothing special. I just like this kind of thing… … .”
She answered, trying not to blush.
“You’re being too humble. Can you make this potion too? I’ll pay for it.”
Sega opened a page of the textbook as if this was the main topic.
Magic Stabilization Potion. 188p.
Yuyu quickly read the recipe.
“… … It’s impossible.”
I was worried that I would get hit this time, but fortunately that didn’t happen.
“You can’t make it either?”
“No! I made artifacts, so there’s no way I couldn’t make one of these!”
As soon as she raised her voice, she regretted it.
This guy’s pride didn’t recognize his opponent.
“Then why can’t you make it?”
“There are no materials.”
“Can’t you just forgive me? I said I’d give you the money.”
“This potion is really old. The ingredients aren’t commercially available anymore.”
The moment Yu Yui finished speaking, she doubted her eyes.
“……ah.”
In that situation, a promising prospect with 78% of S-class talent showed an expression of betrayal.
The scary crew members next to him also all lowered their heads.
She continued calmly.
“The days of trying to fix magic damage with potions are over 10 years ago. It’s just too inefficient. The body quickly recovers with recovery potions, and the mind naturally heals with tranquilizers, stimulants, and rest. You can get other things somehow, but the main ingredient, the tree-shaped erosion demon, the root of the black flame thorn tree, is really nowhere to be found.”
‘Did I talk too much?’
It was a bad habit of hers to become too confident only when a familiar topic came up.
“Okay. Thanks for the details. Can I contact you when I get the materials?”
“It’s not hard to make if you have the materials. … … You can make low-grade recovery potions, magic affinity potions, and magic activation potions cheaply, so use them.”
Yu Yui tightly closed her eyes, held out her business card with both hands, and ran away at a brisk pace.
Even in this situation, it was instinctive to promote it.
She was physically weak and needed artifacts to survive in Shinseoul, and artifacts required money, whether to obtain them or make them.

“Hey guys!”
“Hum?”
“I think I can save the Black Flame Thorn!”
