I Became an Academy Regular - I Became an Academy Regular 187
Hell Mode (3)
“Ugh, I thought I was going to die of frustration.”
Riel, who has been transformed into a human form, stretches as if he is sullen. During the week she was in Hell, she continued to maintain her weapon form, making her body feel awkward.
“There is no place that looks fine.”
Riel looked around the ruined street. She and she kicked Hong Jae-yu’s leg in the lead.
“Ugh! What are you doing all of a sudden?”
When Hong Jae-yu, surprised, looked back, Riel asked.
“Hong Jae-Yoo. Where can people escape from here? I don’t know much about Nana and Drakhan.”
“…for now, there is only the Yoosung Academy. Those who could not afford it either hid in their own homes or entered the tower. Because I don’t have many options.”
In response, Drakhan muttered in a serious voice.
“I don’t know if the temple side will be okay…”
“You mean the tower?”
“no. The villagers are being protected from the ground level.”
“Then… why don’t you go to the shrine from here?”
The layer wiped off the cold sweat. Due to severe injuries and fatigue, his health is gradually deteriorating. Drakhan looked carefully at that layer and shook her head.
“It’s already late, so there’s nothing in a hurry. After all, if I go into the academy, I only get suspicious, so I will move to the temple when I get to the area.”
“Ah…, yes.”
Hong Jae-yu and his party started to move diligently again.
The distance from Meteor Academy to the tower is longer than expected on foot. In addition, there is a risk of collisions along the way, so it is necessary to be vigilant.
At that moment, Riel took the steps of the group. Riel stared intently over there, she said.
“Are there people over there…?”
“Are you a civilian?”
“no. He’s not a civilian… he’s wearing a school uniform. It looks like you belong to the Yoosung Academy. I think there are about ten or so.”
The academy still has a long way to go. The fact that aspiring heroes had teamed up up to this point was obviously going to the streets to rescue those who could not evacuate.
As time passed, Jae-Yoo Hong could be seen a little, so he put his hand on his eyebrow and looked at it.
“Riel Arwell is right. One instructor and the rest seem to be aspiring heroes.”
“Whoa. That’s good.”
Layette said as if sighing.
“Then join the group for now…”
– Kwaang!
At that moment, a sudden explosion occurred where Hong Jae-yu was looking. A noise began to rise from the quiet street.
“It’s an attack…! Someone who looks like an instructor just died!”
Riel, who grasped the situation in the explosion, exclaimed urgently.
“The instructor is dead?”
“okay. An attack flew from somewhere!”
“Ts. I will join you first.”
Hong Jae-yu, who created the magic sword, shouted without looking back. And without time to dry it, it immediately activated its personality and disappeared.
“Layer. you wait for a while I will support you.”
Whoa! Drakhan was holding Riel, which had turned into a bow.
“Are the demons coming?”
“no. These guys took advantage of this opportunity to show their selfishness.”
As he grabbed the sword that was wrapped around his waist, there was a rustling sound.
“When the red sky appeared, most of the people who understood the situation came together with their own forces. He didn’t even care about the demons invading in the process. The guys coming in now are probably staying nearby.”
“…are you saying that other people besides Maine are enemies?”
“To some extent. Unlike demons, if they achieve their goals, they may not kill them, but they are definitely coming to steal them. We don’t know when the tower’s protection will be restored, so we need to have enough supplies to survive until then.”
ok. In only this short period of time, it was possible to understand why the streets had become desolate.
The tower, which was able to collect and manage the Awakened People, could not afford to worry about the safety zone due to erosion and other problems that are still coming down.
I would have understood that the ‘Tower’s Protection’ had disappeared, but there was no notification or control from above, so I couldn’t help but be confused.
as a result of leaving it that way. The Awoken followed the control of the faction they belonged to, and this is what happened in the end.
…maybe it was deliberately left unattended.
“Did I tell you to go to the academy? To be honest, it might already be dangerous there. Except for guilds and mercenaries in this area, there is no place like the meteor academy, right?”
“It will be fine. There are a lot of strong people.”
One place that played a role similar to the safe zone when the tower’s protection disappeared was the Yoosung Academy. There are also wizards, so they are demons, and they are able to block enough of them to loot their supplies.
“More than that, do we really need to fight people who are not even demons?”
“If you want to give me what you have. Or they will try to attract them to power in the name of protection. It could be that she is targeting her friend.”
“In the end, we should see each other first.”
Before leaving the hospital room following the unknown, I looked back at Arwell.
Next to Arwell, Noah Park was looking at me with her eyes wide open. Eyes that do not feel any thoughts.
“Arwell. Feed Noah something to eat while we wait. I haven’t eaten anything since.”
“Oh, I see. Take care of yourself.”
I walked through the hallway with Anonymous.
Near the pile of corpses, an unknown person pointed to the robe the corpse was wearing. The decayed corpses piled up here were all wearing uniform robes.
“By the way, these children are the forces that appeared as soon as the protection of the tower disappeared. They ordered the hospital to kill their friends as well.”
hmmm. I carefully examined the patterns engraved on the robes.
[Like a wizard guild.]
it is sympathetic He couldn’t tell whether he had come to kill Park Noah or to take him. Since there are so many people with various purposes, it was unreasonable to think simply.
Still, I’m glad that Noah Park can fight.
Seeing that he was overpowered even with a wooden sword, the stats that were raised by erosion may have been maintained.
When I went out of the hospital, the commotion had grown even louder than it had just been. It would be dangerous to draw attention, but it was easy to figure out what the plot was. It’s about making your presence known to those who might be hiding around you.
Soon the forces appeared. It looks like a mercenary corps, as they did not wear uniform uniforms. A man who seemed to be a leader walked dignifiedly toward us.
He was a strong, muscular, uncharacteristic man.
“I don’t think you guys are magic. What is your identity?”
“I am an aspiring hero from the Yoosung Academy.”
“It’s from the tower.”
He looked at us carefully, but I don’t know a face. What is certain is that it is not a named character.
Then he suddenly poked his face at me.
“you. Could it be that he went into the basement of the tower?”
“The basement of the tower?”
“Um, no matter how you look at it, it seems right…!”
thump. He grabbed me by the collar and screamed.
“You fucking bastard. Because of you, the protection of the tower has disappeared, so we…!”
“gibberish.”
👌👌👌👌👌 Blood spattered and his arm fell to the floor. Myeong-myeong wiped the blood off the sword and looked at the man who had become a one-man.
“I don’t know if you’re a hero or a mercenary, but you’re just making decisions on the basis that nothing has been revealed. Aren’t you ashamed?”
“Shut up…”
The man grabbed the rest of his arm and hurriedly backed away. He was a well-known leader, so rather than abandoning him, they hid it behind him and went out on their own.
More obscure than that, this person. It’s more cumbersome than I thought. I didn’t expect it to be cut off from the arm, let alone dry it there. Ignorance looked at me with a smirk as if he had even noticed my thoughts.
“Don’t let me touch you. Because there are a lot of guys who do shallow tricks.
“···Oh, thank you. Rather… are you confident?”
This is only two people. The opponent seemed to be well over twenty. I cut off the leader’s arm, so if we lose, the price will be very high. But Mu-myung said with a relaxed expression.
“It would have been difficult if I was alone. But isn’t it enough for you? There is no way that the person she trusts is incompetent.”
As I rolled up my sleeves for the magic manifestation, the Holy Sword said.
[It would be better not to kill him.]
What is certain is that even if the protection of the tower is lost, the allies will not lose to the demons. This environment will eventually adapt over time. Then, it is easy to bring up topics that have been delayed until then.
‘Main knows about it, so other people probably know it too.’
The faces of those who went to Hell must have been sold out, but those who went to the Academy are okay.
Anyway, if the situation quietly subsides, like the man before, there was a possibility that the tower’s protection could be held responsible for the disappearance of us. His actions up to that point could be adversely affected, so he had to avoid collisions with non-Main. Regardless of the outcome of subjugating the beautiful Hector.
Fortunately, the situation ended quickly. Although he couldn’t catch all of the five demons that attacked him, he succeeded in killing two of them. While collecting the instructor’s body, an aspiring hero approached.
“Thank you for your help···.”
Looking at the armband, it’s a 3rd grader. Since the instructor has died, it seems that he has been appointed as a temporary leader of the group. Despite being a senior, Hong Jae-yu spoke without using his title.
“I am also a member of the Yoosung Academy, so there is nothing to be thankful for. This is the instructor. and···.”
Hong Jae-yu shut his mouth. This is because the Drakan, who was helping him, suddenly disappeared. Knowing that these guys belonged to the Yoosung Academy, it seemed that they hid their identities. To confuse her words instead, Jae-Yoo Hong took out her student ID from her arms.
“…Check the evidence with this.”
However, when he shows his ID, the eyes of the aspiring hero suddenly change. Hong Jae-yu felt a strange hostility and took a step back.
The third grader looked at Jae-Yoo Hong and Lay-Lat with anxious eyes.
“I… are you guys?”
“We know what you are thinking.”
Before the 3rd graders could speak up, Layette hit the player. As the only instructor in this room was saying, I couldn’t act hastily apart from my doubts.
Leytt pointed to aspiring heroes who collect corpses.
“It is not too late to explain the question after returning first. There may be other raids, so let’s get out of this place first.”
The third grader turned his head to look at the aspiring heroes. And then he said as if he had made up his mind.
“…No, Instructor. I’m sorry, but I don’t think you can go inside the academy together. We move here separately.”
“crazy. Hey, are you kidding me?”
At the nonsensical remarks, Hong Jae-yu grabbed the aspiring senior hero by the collar.
“I almost died, and you came out like this?”
“Ugh… How can we be sure if this is pure favor or not?!”
“You are bullshit. Is it confirmation bias?”
“Wow, are you sure?”
“Don’t pretend you’re worried, thinking you’re already suspicious. Because I’m hot.”
Hong Jae-yu, feeling that there was no answer, roughly loosened his hand. And he said to the third grader in a calm tone.
“you. When you return, tell Yoon-seong Oh from the lead team that we are here.”
“Oh Yoon-seong…?”
“okay. As you say, it’s dangerous, so I won’t go into the academy. Instead, tell Oh Yoon-seong. Hong Jae-yoo and Instructor Layt have returned. Also to Instructor Beatrice, who is in charge of the special class. Can’t you do that for the price of your life?”
He looked worried for a moment, but he nodded as if he thought that there was no problem with this, as if the third year knew.
“Okay. That’s about it…”
At that time, a female student who was watching this side intervened at the same moment as if the conversation was over. A light brown ponytail with a sad impression. I saw it somewhere.
‘···ah. Was it the junior you were talking to with Arwell?’
He passed by, but the impression was so deep that he didn’t know his name, but even Hong Jae-yu remembered his face. It’s just a little surprising that the first year is already being put into operation.
Canisil added a gibberish story without even knowing that Hong Jae-yu recognized him. She was very apologetic about the response of the third grader.
“I am sorry, but I apologize. There are a lot of people who are looking for the academy, so I can’t help it. … Yesterday, while evacuating with civilians, something bad happened at the academy.”
“done. You can’t apologize.”
“Oh, yes. Sorry, no. Thank you for your help!”
When he beckoned that it was Hong Jae-yu, Canisil nodded his head to Layate behind him as well.
Soon after, the group recovered the instructor’s body and returned to the academy. In the meantime, it seemed that he had no intention of hiding his vigilance by glancing at this side.
“…it’s a little annoying, let’s scare you.”
“Arthur. You understand.”
Layt resisted Hong Jae-yu’s murmuring.
“It seems that we are guessing that the pagoda’s protection disappeared because of us.”
“Iknow, right. …are they really related?”
“It will not be.”
Drakhan’s voice came from hiding somewhere. Riel, who had returned to human form, stood beside her.
“I’m sorry. Chasing after the other three. In any case, the fact that we went to Hell and the tower’s protection disappeared would have nothing to do with each other. It seems he didn’t say anything about the Holy Sword.”
“…then you mean that it happened to fit your legs like this?”
In response to the cool answer, Jae-Yoo Hong touched his forehead as if it was ridiculous.
“… Seo Ji-han, how lucky this little bastard is.”
I couldn’t tell if the times overlapped out of a lot of time.
