Episode 44

His suppression was over soon.
A huge nail made of magical power was trapped in the limbs and bound. Not only that, the skin had turned black, but it was impossible to distinguish whether it was burnt or rotted from frostbite.
“Keuk… Whoops.”
Surprisingly, he was still alive. To be honest, I thought I was behind… … .
“Now is it my turn?”
Garam approached the man, placed his hand near his heart and chanted. Her hair, in shallow curls, began to shine a golden color resembling hair.
At first glance, the true identity of magic that looks like a heel is purification. It is a versatile skill that can remove harmful things, debuffs, and even curses depending on the talent, and is an essential skill for healers.
Soon, the man’s stomach bulged out. The lump, the size of a walnut cookie, wriggled as if it were alive, then slit open its skin and came out.
Kiheheheek-
That solitude that resembles a water bear and a cicada larva is used as a silencer in martial arts.
Garam put on a proud expression. Since solitude self-destructs under great stress, it is necessary to adjust the purification to an intensity that is neither too excessive nor too weak, and it has been successfully done.
The solitude that came out of the world was frozen and turned into powder by the magician instructor.
Siu was able to put his mind at ease.
The raid on the academy by the renegades ended with Siu and Yohan wasting time and the instructors finishing it off.
At that time, the instructor who was yawning suddenly opened his mouth.
“Is it over now?”
And his eyes were focused on him. They were intense gazes that even yawned.
“Oh, isn’t it?”
“It’s over.”
One of the instructors answered with a corner of his mouth.
“If you interrogate this renegade bastard, write a report, strengthen the vigilance and patrol, the end will be right.”
“… … It’s not over.”
“Don’t you know that the end is a new beginning?”
“… f*ck. You slept all day.”
“The academy has been pierced. I won’t be able to sleep for three days, not today.”
While listening to the instructors’ conversation, Siwoo sensed something and turned around slightly.
He even used superficial seclusion to quickly get out of the iron cradle.
“hmm? Where did this person go?”
After belatedly realizing that Siu was gone, Yohan tilted his head.
“Wow, nothing. Did you go without saying anything?”
He was dumbfounded, but he understood. He must have been tired from fighting a fierce battle against a witch doctor who was not good enough.
I have to go now too, thought Yohan and said to Kangmin.
“Where are you going?”
“yes?”
“You have to write a letter. You are an important reference.”
“No, bro. What do you mean?”
“What are you talking about? Be patient even if you are tired.”
“no… … ah!”
Only then did Yohan know why Siwoo Lee had disappeared. This ungrateful bastard went out alone. Yohan was trembling with a sense of betrayal, but getting out of the situation was more important than that.
“Can’t we do it tomorrow?”
“Be patient.”
“No, I don’t know either. I just followed Siu Lee.”
“Even if you don’t know about it, you need it.”
“So, Siwoo Lee?! I did what he said!”
“hmm? Come to think of it, where did Siwoo Lee go? have you gone already? I can’t help it. If this is the case, your statement is all the more necessary.”
However, even mentioning Siwoo Lee, who had already disappeared, was useless.
“I-I am a patient.”
Although John made a final excuse.
“Why are you frowning so much? Heir of Cheonilmun. Just follow me.”
“… … .”

Not even the seeds were eaten.

On the other hand, Siwoo, who had safely escaped from the iron cradle, was standing in front of a building contrary to expectations.
It was the third stage in terms of a game that I handled with Yohan, and the building where Kim Yoo-jung was abandoned (?) unintentionally.
“… … would you have gone?”
Siu muttered in an ambiguous tone.
Quite a bit of time had passed and it was even more strange to be there because of the corpses with their limbs cut off.
If you think about it common sense, it’s right to go.
It’s okay to go… … .
It seemed that the bed would be disturbed to go without checking. Yohan said something strange, which made me even more concerned. Siu entered the building.
Climb the stairs of the building and arrive at the empty rooftop.
The smell of blood stung his nostrils. The hardened black blood glowed black in the moonlight. It was a terrible sight, but Siu breathed a sigh of relief.
“Looks like he’s gone.”
After confirming that she was gone, Siwoo left the building and headed for the dormitory. I had to pass through the park on my way, but today I entered the park confidently.
It was the first time in a clean park without a single groan. There were a few corpses rolling around and a few cadets shivering on the bench with blankets on them, but in Siu’s eyes it was more normal than usual.
As I passed the park proudly, I saw a cadet sitting in a fountain.
In fact, the atmosphere was gloomy, with instructors running around and some cadets trembling from the aftermath of the attack, but that cadet looked particularly dazed.
There was blood on his hands, apparently he had killed a few renegades. It must have been confusing, but it did a pretty great job.
And Siwoo’s footsteps slowly stopped. His expression gradually hardened.
Kim Yoo-jung looked up at Si-woo, who had stopped.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Their eyes met, but the two didn’t say anything.
Siwoo has committed sins, so why are you here? Didn’t you go to the dorm? I couldn’t say anything like that.
I saved something that was almost going to be used in the bowl, so if I add a plus or minus, the plus is bigger, but ‘So I saved you, what should I do?’ I didn’t have the personality to make up my mind that way.
Also, her mood seemed strangely changed.
what to say I guess I’ve calmed down a bit. Should I say I’ve matured?
exchange of glances for a while. It was Yoojung who spoke first.
“Are you on the way to save others too?”
“huh.”
“You must have suffered.”
Saying that, Yoo-jeong stood up from her seat and stood in front of Si-woo.
He took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped Siu’s cheek. Normally, she would shake her head in shock, but now Yoo-jung was different.
He looks at Siwoo with a deep and clear gaze.
“Is it your blood?”
“… Probably not.”
“I’m glad.”
Yoojung was expressionless. The twinkling eyes glistened in the full moonlight. It was burdensome.
Uncharacteristically for her, she didn’t shy away, didn’t say weird things or handed things she didn’t like.
A sense of incongruity surrounds the body. Could it be that the surviving renegade was camouflaged? I even heard that thought.
This was not the reaction he expected.
Being angry about leaving something in a corpse pit, suppressing anger because you saved something, feeling sad about being treated like that by a member of the opposite s*x you like, or just ignoring it.
However, Yoo-jung did not blame Shi-woo for leaving at all.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
It was an expressionless and low-key voice, but I could feel that the sentence contained the meaning of worry.
“… doesn’t exist.”
“thank god.”
After wiping Siwoo’s cheeks, Yoojung naturally took his hand. Wipe the scab off. I feel my small, thin fingers.
Yu-jeong let go of Si-woo’s hand only after she wiped her right hand and left hand as well.
“Are you on your way to the dorm?”
“uh.”
“Come with me.”
“… OK.”
It’s been a few minutes since I made up my mind to draw the line, but I wasn’t in the mood for that.
In the end, Siwoo and Yoojeong accompany them to the dormitory.
It was an awkward atmosphere, but Yoo-jung opened her mouth from time to time.
“Did you take care of everything?”
“really?”
“amazing.”
A short conversation, even that, started with Yoo-jeong and ended with Yoo-jeong. Siwoo only spoke like yes, uh, yes, no, etc. as if making dots.
Yoo-jung met his eyes with a nod to the same answer. It was a burdensome but comfortable conversation.
It was as calm as the surface of the water and flowed gently like a stream.
So, I arrived at the dormitory right away. Men had to go to the right and women to the left, so we had to part here.
“bye.”
“huh.”
Yoo-jung waved her hand first, and Si-woo accepted the greeting by slightly raising her hand.
However, Yu-jeong, who greeted her as if she would be entering soon, stared at Si-woo without moving. Awkwardness grew taut. Why Siwoo? Just as he was about to ask, Yu-jeong opened his mouth.
“Thank you for saving me.”
And one step closer. It was right in front of me so that only the top of my head could be seen.
Took-
Her forehead touched Siu’s chest.
Siu didn’t hug her. She didn’t hug Siu either. Her small forehead was the only contact surface, but an unknown tension flowed.
It must have been like that for about 5 seconds, then she took a step back again.
“good night.”
I waved my hand again and said goodbye.
“… … good night.”
A little later, Siu replied. It was because it was the first time I had ever seen Yoo-jung smile like that. It was a pretty smile, maybe because I didn’t even think about it.
This time, I turned around right after saying goodbye. Yoo-jung walks confidently without looking back.
Her ears had turned red.
It was only after Yu-jeong entered the dormitory that Si-woo moved on.
Siwoo entered the room and lay down on the bed.
I didn’t sleep well.
I went to check the oil well for a comfortable sleep.
Siwoo was forced to close his eyes.

[<Quest3-2. Stop the renegades from attacking the academy> has been cleared.]
[Reward: Lucky Dice x2 will be provided.]
[You have cleared <Stop the academy terror with (Character) Kim Yohan>.]
[Reward: Cheonilmun intermediate skill book will be provided.]
The morning starts with a system message. Two dice and a thick book fell on the bed. The lucky dice had a separate use, so I put them away on the desk and opened the skill book.
Hwaaak-
When he opened the skill book, a white light came out and covered Siu’s body. It is the same phenomenon as the effect of the game. When the light disappeared after a while, the book he was holding was also gone.
[Acquire the Simbeop ‘Eye of the Storm’.]
[Eye of the Windstorm]
▶Activation conditions
– Recite Gugyeol and circulate (sojucheon) energy throughout the body.
-The effect increases if you pour soju in a place with strong wind.
▶Effect

– You can feel the way the wind blows.
▶ Gugyeol

“It’s not a swordsmanship.”
Siwoo was expecting swordsmanship in his heart, but his expression was not bad.
“It might be better.”
Good simbeop is essential for a permanent increase in energy. I felt a lack of energy that I hadn’t felt in a while yesterday, so I was very happy to see the whirlwind.
That’s probably the case, too, since he’s almost run out of energy after the two peaks… … . If the change of four meals is that much, the wrong meal can never be a burden.
After Siwoo clicked >>> Open to memorize the ballot, he used the simbeop’s eye of wind.
Huung-
Even indoors, there was a light breeze. His hair was parted here and there, following the grain of the wind.
The corner of Siu’s mouth went up. I can already feel the efficacy that is incomparable to the three-review method that is rolling around the Internet. It was also because the simbeop itself gave the feeling of lying on a vast meadow.
However, his energy management is beep-beep-beep! It was broken by the loud alarm.
Looking at the smartphone, below the picture of the alarm clock, there was a short message saying ‘Roll, Siwoo Lee’.
“f*ck.”
Yesterday, to be exact, I rolled like a dog this morning. He is not given time to rest.
It’s Saturday, but he doesn’t have a day off.
widely-
Siwoo turned off the alarm and got ready to go to training.

“… … .”
I thought I wouldn’t be given time to rest, but it wasn’t.
[As a follow-up to the attack on the academy by devil worshipers at 00:00 today (stabilizing school security, investigating the circumstances of the incident, and strengthening vigilance), all auxiliary facilities and amenities except for designated buildings are temporarily closed.
Period: X day of X month, 20XX ~ X day of X month, 20XX (three days)
Designated buildings: CUU convenience store at the entrance of Square Hall, Academy headquarters building, Healer practice room on the 3rd floor of the Pentagon… … ]
“Somehow, no one was there.”
Seeing the poster on the training ground, Siu scratched his head.
It made sense that the cadets were nowhere to be seen and only the instructors wandered around.
“So did you find it strange?”
On the way back, an instructor I had never seen before asked me where I was going, and I replied that it was a training ground.
“No, at least tell me that the training ground isn’t open.”
There is no suitable place to train other than the training ground. After fighting with the renegades, I really didn’t want to come out, but I came out with my heart, so it was a pity to go in.
Shiwoo headed for the park or the main playground. It wasn’t the growth mindset of finding a place where there were no people and training.
“let’s go.”
The conclusion was eventually to return to the dormitory. I thought it would be better to practice at least simbeop with the eyes of a windstorm, rather than wander around aimlessly.
“It looks like you’ve been stuck at home for three days.”
Ung-ung-
“hmm?”
At that time, Maehwagum cried. I was very happy. Siwoo, wondering why he was like this, thought of something.
just as expected.
[Maehwa Sword]
▶The sword belonging to Lee Si-woo.
▶Characteristics
1. Hardness.
>>>Made of steel that has endured thousands of hardening.
2. Sharpness.
>>> Sharp enough to cut through falling leaves.
3. Personification
>>> Turns into a human (Standby time: 39 hours 11 minutes 27 seconds, Duration: 6 hours).
It wasn’t long before personification.
“… … The timing I like is very unfortunate.”
At the point where he said he would stay at home for three days, he flattered himself. Although he spent more time outside because of his date, he never forgot the moment of their first meeting.
Wasn’t he surprised when he came up on the boat and looked down at himself, especially while he was out of his mind?
“In 39 hours… ”
After roughly continuing the cooldown time, Siwoo was startled when he realized that he would be able to use personification a little after 11:00 tomorrow.
For reference, the dormitory curfew is 12:00.
